Back in 84, he became Jordan’s lifelong enemy!

Chapter 224 Are Danzi and I on the same level?
The Sacramento Kings are a team with a relatively balanced lineup.

Among their five starters, the highest scoring average is 18+ points per game, and the lowest is 11+ points.

All five of them can score in double figures, but there is no particularly outstanding star player, no one who averages more than 20 points per game.

When you win, the three armies are at your service and all the people are soldiers. When you lose, it's because there are no people who stand up to solve the difficulties at the critical moment.

In a word, they have no star players, no special core, just one person who has been on the All-Star team.

Reggie Serus is 201cm tall, about the same height as Su Wen. He plays the second position and is quite thin, weighing only 86kg.

In the late 23.8s and early 3.7s, he was a member of the Chicago Bulls. In his best season, he averaged 5.9 points, 1.7 rebounds, assists and steals per game. He was a strong offensive and defensive player.

He was selected to the All-Star twice in the 81/82 and 82/83 seasons, once as a starter and once as a substitute.

Before Jordan, this was the core that the Bulls could rely on more.

But considering that before Jordan, the Bulls had not made the playoffs in six or seven seasons, one can imagine his ability to lead the team.

The reason why he is familiar to the public is because it is said that he and Carmelo Anthony teamed up to suppress Linsanity.

Sitting on the sidelines in the final quarter, he watched with an extremely relaxed attitude as the team defeated this opponent 127:87 and 40 points, ushering in the victory in the opening game of the playoffs this season.

35:22
There is a big difference in strength between the two sides.

Of course, Lin Kuangshen's failure to continue his outstanding performance was not only due to being targeted by research, but also because of the return of the team's core Anthony. The ball was no longer concentrated in his hands, and the offense was not controlled by him.

On the evening of April 4, the league had a total of four playoff games starting at the same time, including the SuperSonics and Kings.

Because before Woodson took over D'Antoni's coaching position, Linsanity was no longer crazy, and the characteristics of his style of play were thoroughly studied.

Needless to say, the SuperSonics' lineup. In addition to Reggie Theus and Mike Woodson, the Kings' starting lineup also includes LaSalle Thompson, who is 208cm tall. He averaged 15 points per game at his peak and 10.4 rebounds per game at his peak. Cover 1.8 pieces.

And Terry Taylor, the second and third swingman, is 201cm tall.

Sometimes a three-point shot would torture them to death.

Almost no one thought that this king could make any waves in front of them.

A right-handed general with unstable shooting, rarely performs once he is studied and targeted.

If the head coach wants to hire a non-All-Star player, it's too simple. He just doesn't give him playing time. Why do he need to join forces with the team's superstars to suppress him?

Once targeted, his shortcomings of unstable shooting and tendency to jump to the right are magnified infinitely.

Before becoming the head coach of the Knicks, Mike D'Antoni had created Linsanity and Lin Cyclone.
Mike Woodson has no outstanding achievements in his coaching career.

Su Wen accelerated and rushed inside to score.

迈克·伍德森身高196cm，球员时代表现还算优秀，巅峰时期场均有18.2分3.1篮板3.1助攻1.7抢断。

The Sonics have the best record in the league and the best record in the Western Conference. They faced such a team in the first round of the playoffs and were favored by countless people before the game.

Besides him, Mike Woodson is worth mentioning.

In the past nine years, including this season, he has led the team to the playoffs five times and the semifinals three times, and this is the highest result.

In their first game at home, the SuperSonics scored 35 points in the first quarter.

There is also Mark Oberding in the third position, who is 203cm tall and undrafted.

Their starting lineup is not only average in strength, but also quite average in height, neither tall nor short, neither above nor below.

In the third quarter, Su Wen only played half of the quarter and the game fell into garbage time.

In his nine-year coaching career, the best result he achieved was when he coached the Knicks in the 11/12 season, with a winning rate of 75%.

Especially Su Wen, they couldn't find a way to suppress it.

In order to overthrow and rebuild, the Bulls traded him to the Kansas City Kings to make room for Jordan.

He is an inside player who swings at the fourth and fifth positions.

No one knows whether Anthony suppressed Linsanity, but Mike Woodson did not need to suppress such a player.

He can set off the Lin Tornado craze. In addition to D'Antoni's absolute delegation of power and the real lack of availability, it is because he is not a star player and is still an undrafted player. People are not familiar with him.

To be honest, no one would believe this.

But this is all for the rest.

After playing a season and a half with the Kansas City Kings, he became the core of the team as the team moved to Sacramento.

In the early and middle stages of his career, he averaged more than 15 points per game in each season. His talent was not outstanding, but he could be considered a person who could run and jump. When he was young, his field goal percentage per game was as high as over 50%.

Jeremy Lin's strengths and weaknesses are too obvious.

That was accomplished only after taking over D'Antoni in the middle of the game, and then he was eliminated in the first round by the Heat's Big Three with a gorgeous score of 4:1.

At the same time, in the King's career, he focused more on organization. Like Su Wen, he suddenly had an idea and averaged assists per game.

This season, the average data per game has reached 18.3 points, 3.7 rebounds and 9.6 assists.

Coupled with the fact that he also had an organization and breakthrough points, the king's defense against Su Wen was completely at a loss, focusing on one thing but not the other, like a headless chicken.
At the end of halftime, the point difference they were widened was even greater, falling directly behind by 31 points.

Is it because Lin Kuangyan is too pushy?
In fact, Jeremy Lin broke out during that period. It was an absolute delegation of power after no one was available during D'Antoni's coaching period.

He was the head coach of the Hawks from the 04/05 season to the 09/10 season, and once replaced Mike D'Antoni, and was the head coach of the New York Knicks for two and a half years.

But his entire career was nothing more than that. He was neither good nor bad, and he did not achieve many honors or personal achievements. Instead, he was familiar to later generations of fans because he coached the Atlanta Hawks after retiring.

In this game, he did not take many shots, but sent 18 assists.

全场23投14中，三分8中7，罚球4中4，轰下39分8篮板18助攻2抢断6封盖。

Their only player, Reggie Theus, who has some star player statistics, was overwhelmed by Su Wen throughout the game. He only made 20 of 4 shots and handed over a pitiful data sheet of 10 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

The best performer for the Kings in this game was Woodson, the future head coach of the Hawks.

14次出手，命中8球，拿到了全队最高分18分1篮板1助攻。

LaSalle Thompson grabbed a lot of rebounds and had a double-double of 11 points and 17 rebounds.

But that's all, it poses no threat to the Supersonics throughout the process.

On the contrary, due to Su Wen's ability to attack and pass, he brought up the offensive status of his teammates. Even Karl Malone and Joe Dumars on the bench benefited a lot.

前者拿到了20分7篮板3助攻3封盖，后者拿到了14分3助攻以及3抢断。

The hit rate is as high as 70%.

After a massacre, all members of the Sonics disbanded early, and the results of other games also came out.

In another game in the Western Conference, the Los Angeles Lakers won even more. They dominated the Portland Trail Blazers for almost the whole game. After four quarters, they scored an astonishing 135 points and only allowed 88 points to their opponents. The point difference was larger than the SuperSonics. This one is even bigger.

The only pity is that the score difference did not reach 58 points, only 47 points. Clyde Drexler, the future second shooting guard in the league, was completely lost in the Lakers' showtime moment. He took 24 shots in the entire game, only hit 7 goals, and scored 16 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists.

However, he made 8 turnovers, which is an eye-catching performance.

Although Magic Johnson didn't score much, he hit 9 goals and got 6 points and 13 rebounds in only 18 shots in the game.

But like Drexler, he is a master of turnovers, with as many as 9 turnovers.

It's fun to have fun.

However, because of his excellent offensive connection, a total of 6 of his teammates scored in double figures, and almost all of them shot above 63%.

The scary thing is that all the Lakers players, except Kurt Rambis who made 2 of 0 shots, scored more than 5 points, and two of them were close to 10 points.

Looking at the data table, among the teammates who scored in double figures, except for Byron Scott, who took 19 shots, hit 12 goals, and scored 24 points, he had the lowest shooting percentage.

Facing the Lakers who play their own style and showtime characteristics, how can the Trail Blazers not lose?
In both games in the Western Conference, the side with the better record and stronger strength won, and the ship did not overturn.

The results of the two games in the Eastern Conference were the same, and there was no upset either.

The Atlanta Hawks easily defeated the Detroit Pistons without Joe Dumars 140:102. The score gap between the two sides was as huge as the SuperSonics and Lakers. It seemed that they were not at the same level as their opponents.

The Eagles' super core, Dominique Wilkins, had an average performance in this game. He only hit 26 goals in 9 shots and scored 28 points.

But he has a very good teammate who is very good at passing the ball. In the future, he will be affectionately called the "King of Comebacks" by fans, Doc Rivers.

Doc Rivers had 17 points and 16 assists, and the number of assists, like Su Wen and Magic, reached an astonishing 15 or more times.

Those who don't understand the strength and playing characteristics of the three of them will mistakenly think that this guy is on the same level as Su Wen and Magic.

Their opponent, the smiling assassin Isaiah Thomas, whose playing style is more like a point guard, was not to be outdone and sent out 16 assists in the game.

The four of them, Su Wen and Magic, seemed to have made an appointment, and each of them gave so many assists.

Unfortunately, in addition to 16 assists, the Smiling Assassin's shooting percentage is too eye-catching.

He took 19 shots and only scored 6 goals.

If he hadn't made 11 free throws and hit 8 of them, he might not have scored 20 points.

Without Joe Dumas, the Smiling Assassin is on its own. There is no helper on the outside, and there is only an old scheming Bill Laimbeer who likes to make trouble on the inside.

The last scene, the highlight is here.

After Michael Jordan was seriously injured, despite working hard to recuperate, he successfully returned for the last 14 games at the end of the season and played in good form.

However, they finally managed to squeeze into the playoffs, but their opponent was the powerful defending runner-up Boston Celtics.

I have to say, this is a terrible thing.

With the overall strength inferior to the Celtics, Danzi played very hard in this game and took many shots. However, the strength gap between the two sides was too big, and they lost in the end.

丹子全场出手达到了惊人的40次，命中了21球，三分5中2，罚球15中13，个人砍下恐怖的57分4篮板2助攻2抢断。

After scoring nearly 60+ points like crazy, he seemed truly helpless even after losing.

Of course, if you ignore Ulrich, who made 20 of 11 shots and scored 25 points, and Charles Oakley, who made 9 of 5 shots and scored 13 points and 10 rebounds, he did.

Just like the public's perception of Ulrich, this guy's statistics are okay in the regular season, but in the playoffs, they are the biggest loophole and the opponent's breakthrough point.

The points he scored were not as many as what he gave away, and the defense was leaking everywhere.

The only thing worth celebrating is that they are also the team that lost the smallest score difference in the four games.

Among the Celtics' starting five, although no one scored as terrible as Danzi, they were better than average. They all contributed 20+ points on average, and three scored 25+ points.

The overall strength is much better than that of the Bulls.

In the four games, among the four major star players, including the dunk king Wilkins, only Jordan lost. This night, one can imagine his own mood.

Almost at the end of the game, he walked back to the office with a dark face.

But as his opponent, Larry Bird expressed great appreciation for him.

In an interview with reporters accompanying the team, Big Bird praised him as follows: Michael is too good, just like Su Wen of the Sonics.
Nima!

It's okay if you don't praise him, but when you praise him, Danzi who just walked into the tunnel was so praised that he almost went back to beat him.

You are deliberately disgusting me, right?

I was already very unhappy after scoring a high score and losing. Why the hell are you mentioning that bastard?

Give me eye drops?

Danzi's figure paused at the entrance of the passage, and finally left with a darker face.

Since his game was an hour later than the Bulls game, Su Wen, who returned home after the game, did not see the game.

However, he still learned about the results from the sports news.

When I saw that Danzi actually scored 57 points and still lost, I couldn't help but click my tongue.

He didn't marvel at Danzi's awesomeness, but marveled at the fact that after such a performance, the Celtics beat the Bulls by 10 points.

Now think about it, the Celtics are still their strongest opponent on the road to the championship, and the pressure the Lakers put on them is not that great.

The Celtics and Lakers are a team that is all-out, all-out, and extremely strong offensively and defensively.

A strong offensive team that is completely unable to defend itself when its offense is high.
It is more troublesome for a team that plays total offense and total defense.

"They seem to be the runners-up last season? Your opponents?"

Wu Qihua, who accompanied him to read the news, asked in surprise with his eyes widened.

"Correct!"

Su Wen nodded lightly.

"This is so fierce." Wu Qihua exclaimed in admiration, "The Michael Jordan who you were so close to for a while has been fighting like this, but he still can't win, what if it were you"

"what are you thinking?"

Su Wen glanced at him sideways and said disdainfully: "Are Bulls on the same level as us?"

"No!" Wu Qihua nodded thoughtfully.

"Are Michael Jordan and I on the same level?" Su Wen asked again.

"Isn't it?"

Wu Qihua did not nod this time, but asked cautiously.
