Chapter 294 For Auden, What Can You Lose?

February 20, 2007, Seattle Key Arena.

The Key Arena is the hottest arena in the NBA market this year.

The Key Arena, which can accommodate more than 17,000 people, is full this season.

The 104% attendance rate made the Key Arena the most attended team in the NBA this season.

If it is not afraid that the temporary seats added to each game and too many standing tickets sold will affect safety.

The attendance rate of the key arena can be even more terrifying!

The enthusiasm of the fans has created the No. 1 devil's home court in the NBA this season!

Now the home atmosphere of the Key Arena is the best in the entire NBA!

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

Listening to the crazy shouts of the DJ and the fans shouting 'MVP! ’ slogan, Jerry West’s face was full of shock.

This isn't the first time he's been to the Keys to watch a game.

After so many years in the NBA, he knows exactly what the key arena was like before, and what the key arena is like this season.

In the previous key arena, the attendance rate of all NBA teams can only be regarded as low-to-medium, and it is only about 20.

With such an ordinary attendance rate, the atmosphere of the stadium is naturally not that good.

After the current Supersonics get Yes, the changes in the key arena are like a world of difference!

Jerry West has been able to feel the power of a city cheering for a player at the Key Arena!

This is the craziest power a team can get!

Yes!

Every time he watched Yes's game live, his desire for Oden was heightened!

The energy brought by this level of players is always beyond people's imagination.

Not to mention Memphis, even a seemingly small city like Toronto, as long as it can win the championship, it will transform from a small ball market to a big one!

In the NBA, the most important thing is always victory and championship!

Yes, he wouldn't have been recognized in Seattle without those victories and championships.

The easiest way for the Grizzlies to be recognized is to turn the Grizzlies into an NBA championship contender!

This game between the Sonics and the Grizzlies is not important.

The Sonics, now 32 wins and 20 losses, have almost secured their position in the Western Conference playoffs.

The Grizzlies, with 14 wins and 40 losses, have basically secured the last place in the Western Conference.

If it was just an ordinary game between the eighth in the West and the fifteenth in the West, Jerry West would not come to the Key Arena to supervise the battle in person.

The point is that the Sonics are not an ordinary eighth team in the West!

The Sonics hold the 2007 draft pick of the Bucks, who are now the bottom one in the Eastern Conference!

Now the battle between the Bucks and the Grizzlies for the last place in the league has entered a fever pitch!

Jerry West needs to prevent the Sonics from deliberately losing to the Grizzlies in order to get Oden.

The gap between the Grizzlies and the Bucks is very small.

The Bucks are even worse than the Grizzlies right now.

The Bucks traded their draft picks to the Supersonics in 2007, coupled with the dismissal of the team's head coach, the injury of the team leader, and the fact that the team has fallen into another owner-changing storm. It can be said that the Bucks have given up treatment now. There is also a tendency to retaliate against society.

The Bucks really don't care about losing now!

Although he prepared Gasol to be reimbursed for the season by taking advantage of Gasol's injury in the World Championships for Spain, the Grizzlies still have to save face.

It also needs to give David Stern some face.

Now the Grizzlies are still at the bottom, but the gap with the Bucks is not that far away.

In order to keep the bottom one position, the Grizzlies must not win against the Supersonics, which seems to be a losing game!

In the NBA, there are players who are willing to listen to the team and accept bad performance, and there are also players who are unwilling to accept bad performance!

His previous idea of ​​​​building a team in the Grizzlies was to find those players with professionalism to build the team.

This created a lot of trouble for his poor work this season.

Players like Gasol and Battier are unwilling to play badly.

They want to play in the playoffs, they also want to win a championship, but they want to go all out in every game.

Let them lose just right every game, they are not willing to do it.

Not only these players, but the team's previous head coach Mike Fratello was also unwilling to do it.

Gasol's injury has healed and he will be able to play games in January. Fratello wants to let Gasol play.

In order for Gasol to play, Fratello hinted at the press conference that Gasol has recovered.

Now Fratello has been fired by him.

Gasol is still sitting on the sidelines watching the Grizzlies continue to lose.

In order to get Oden, the Grizzlies are under a lot of pressure now.

Replacing former head coach Mike Fratello can only be suppressed for a while, not forever.

Gasol wants to play, wants to win.

Battier also wants to go all out for the game and also wants to win.

Facing the increasing internal pressure of the Grizzlies, either all these people will be traded, or he will personally hold the lineup every game.

Without his supervision, the Grizzlies' new head coach Tony Barone could not hold back.

Tony Barone is the head of player affairs for the Grizzlies. He was not a full-time coach in the first place, so letting him be the head coach is purely a sham.

Asking players to listen to him is a joke.

If the Grizzlies hadn't been suppressed by him, they would have been in chaos.

Unless he traded Battier and Gasol!

He did have the idea of ​​trading Battier and Gasol for Yes last season.

But now that it has been determined to build a team with Oden as the core, these two are candidates who can assist Oden in the future, so naturally they cannot be traded!

It's not an easy thing to keep them and not let them win.

Fortunately, he has enough prestige in the NBA and the Grizzlies!

"Kenny, do you think the Sonics will win this game?"

The game between the Sonics and the Grizzlies is broadcast live on TNT across the United States.

With the reimbursement of Paul Gasol, the head of the Grizzlies, there is nothing to watch in the game between the Supersonics and the Grizzlies.

The biggest thing to watch in this game is whether the Supersonics will play badly for Oden!

To be precise, will Yes deliberately lose in order to get Oden!

This is a very interesting point of view!

It is also a spectacle that many fans in the United States are looking forward to!

Yes has said more than once before that standing on the court is to pursue victory.

Now there is a chance to get Oden in front of Yes, will Yes change his principle of winning all the time in order to get Oden? !

This kind of "unmanned supermarket"-style test of human nature has always been popular.

The last person who was tested by Oden was Jerry West. For Oden, Jerry West changed his team-building style that he never took the initiative to show bad.

Now it's finally Yes' turn!

"I believe Yes will make the right choice for his career!"

"The Supersonics will have two games against the Grizzlies this season plus this game. As long as they lose to the Grizzlies in these two games, the chances of the Bucks getting the No. It will increase greatly!"

"In order to get Oden, the price paid by the Sonics is nothing more than the loss of two games. Even such a loss may not even change the position of the Sonics. They can still enter the playoffs!"

"So, the choice of Yes in this game is very clear."

"I believe everyone will understand Yes's choice."

Barkley's words have been very clear.

In order to win a career, so what if you give up a game or two!

This is Oden, a player who can change Yes' career!

The 'MVP' cheers at the Key Arena were huge, beyond Yeth's imagination.

In the past, the key arena rarely called MVP.

One is that I don't want to put pressure on Ye Si, and the other reason is that Supersonic fans are not as shameless as ESPN.

But this time, Ye Si took a turn in the All-Stars and became the star of the All-Stars. The Sonics fans will have more confidence!

It is no secret that this year's All-Star Yes has been suppressed by many players.

Since Yes can even withstand such pressure, and still become the most dazzling one.

Then Yes has enough strength and psychological quality to bear all this!

With the current ranking of the Sonics in the Western Conference, his chances of winning the regular season mvp are very slim.

But being yelled MVP by the home fans is still a very interesting thing for Ye Si.

"Yes, we also want to win this game, right?"

"certainly!"

In this game against the Grizzlies, many people speculated that the Sonics would deliberately lose the game before the game.

The sprint stage of the NBA is not just a sprint to win!

"We stand on the court to win, and this pursuit will never change."

Victory is the eternal pursuit!

This answer did not disappoint Old Nelson.

"For Oden, Jerry West has changed!"

"Yes is about to change too!"

The game between the Supersonics and the Grizzlies began, and Milicic won the first wave of ball rights for the Supersonics.

Barkley in the commentary seat is already looking forward to Yes' acting skills!

The picture of deliberately pretending that you want to win in order to lose is very interesting!

Barkley can't wait to tease that potentially clumsy Yes!

Even the expression on Battier's face was a little disdainful.

The experience in the Grizzlies made him tired of deliberately losing!

Um?

Just when Battier wanted to watch Ye Si's "clumsy" performance with disdain on his face, Ye Si made a mid-range shot under Battier's deliberately slow defense!

It's still a decisive offense, it's still a picturesque shot, and it's still chasing victory.

Battier, who originally had some disdain on his face, had nothing but surprise on his face.

"Yes, I don't want to lose this game!"

Barkley, who predicted early, also yelled out loud.

Didn't even want to lose? !

Yes don't want Oden? !

Jerry West on the sidelines was stunned.

This is Oden!

Facing the temptation of Auden, who can resist? !

Even if it is Yes, I will be shaken by it like I am!

Jerry West wants to see how Yes shakes up for Oden in this game.

But at the end of the game, the Sonics defeated the Grizzlies 117 to 100 at home, and Jerry West didn't see it.

36 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists!

The standard Yes big triple double!

It's definitely not for failed acting!

"Yes did not change his principles for Auden!"

"Yes wins, loses Oden!"
