()Chapter 863 The player internal meeting chapter has been updated at a high speed, and the number of updated words is 2834

After losing to the New Orleans Hornets, many people worried or hoped that the Seattle Supersonics would continue their losing streak amid infighting, but surprisingly, in the ensuing back-to-back away games, the Supersonics first played against the Phoenix Suns. Shaquille O'Neal, who has opened new flowers to the old tree, and Yao Ming's performance did not fall behind. After Kurt Thomas was placed on the injured list, Channing Frye was activated. Not lacking, Carlesimo has designed the future inside rotation. When encountering a strong inside line, he will use a double-high double lineup like Yao Ming and Coupard, and when the opponent has a flexible "xing" inside line, he will use it. The cooperation of Serge Ibaka with Yao Ming or Coupard can also achieve very good results.

Nick Collinson can be used as a supplement to Serge Ibaka. He has more experience, a more stable defensive style, and is not easy to make mistakes. In this way, Kurt Thomas's important "xing" plummeted, and in the game It also reflects this.

When facing the Phoenix Suns, the coexistence of O'Neal and Amare Stoudemire was not effective, but when the two played in turns, they both performed very well. The Suns continued this style of play. But when facing the Sonics, it didn't work. When Amare Stoudemire was the team's center, Yao Ming didn't take advantage of such a center, but Serge Ibaka However, his performance was very good, always suddenly appearing in front of Amare Stoudemire from one side, and then covered the ball in Amares Stoudemire's hand with his palm.

The face-up attack has this shortcoming, it is very easy to be blocked, and after two knee injuries, Amare Stoudemire's bounce has dropped too much. In the past, relying on bounce, his release point was not high. Now that there is no bounce, he still uses the shooting method he was used to before, so he is naturally very easy to be blocked.

And when O'Neal came on the court, Yao Ming and Coupard crowded left and right, and there were three big meats.Tuanzi, no matter how good O'Neill's little hook is, there must be a certain amount of room for shooting. Now that two people are squeezing him to death, he still has a chance to make a shot. Outside, the Suns are no match for the Sonics.

Facing Steve Nash, Stephen's assist switch started to be turned on. He continuously sent assists and helped his teammates score. His own offense was very restrained, but a player who averaged more than [-] points per game, even if he stood there still, Also a huge threat, not to mention Stephen is still running non-stop.

By the third quarter, the situation of the game was very clear. If there were no surprises, the Supersonics would take away a victory from the central arena in the air corridor. This is a big challenge for the Suns, which are heading for the playoffs. Very hard hit.

Sure enough, in the end, the Sonics won the game by [-] points. They left Phoenix with joy and surprise, and came to Oakland.

Facing the Golden State Warriors, which has long since faded away, the Sonics won more easily. From the beginning, Stephen put the game into the track of the Sonics, regardless of how the Golden State Warriors played. Unrestrained, no matter how miraculous old Nelson was, he seemed helpless in the face of such a huge gap in strength.

After expanding the lead to five points in the second quarter, the Sonics did not give the Warriors any more chances. They played both inside and outside. Before the end of the third quarter, the game basically lost its suspense. It's not that the point difference is so big that the Golden State Warriors can't match it, but that the Golden State Warriors have nothing to do in the face of such a Sonics team.

Finally, with satisfaction, the Sonics left Oakland and won two consecutive victories after losing to the New Orleans Hornets. Although these two teams are not considered strong teams, they still make many people worry and Doubt vanished into thin air, such a team really cannot be defeated without one Kurt Thomas.

After returning to Seattle, Robert Horry appeared in front of the team. He had just returned from a medical center in Philadelphia and had no time to pay attention to the team. It was only after returning to Seattle that he was reminded by the staff that the team There was a problem inside, and after seeing the team, in front of everyone, he proposed to hold a closed-door meeting of players to solve the team's internal instability and unify their thinking.

After a night of rest, the next day, all the players came to Stephen's house. In order to maintain Stephen's authority, Robert Horry specifically asked that the meeting place be held at home. Stephen also prepared something for this, like food , entertainment equipment or something.

In addition to Jeremy James and Von Weaver, even Kurt Thomas was pulled over by Robert Horry. Although Kurt Thomas was a little reluctant, he also knew that he would have to stay here for two or three seasons according to his contract. And Stephen doesn't seem to be going to other teams, and he can't always be so stiff with him.

Robert Horry called the two people together. First of all, he accused Kurt Thomas. In any case, Stephen's status as the boss of the team must be respected, and it was indeed Kurt Thomas who was wrong at the beginning, and Robert Horry never A professional player accused Kurt Thomas of his attitude, leaving Kurt Thomas speechless.

First of all, you are wrong, and then the boss of the team will target you. It is not for no reason, and in front of the public, you can’t make moves to provoke the authority of the boss, and then you don’t take the opportunity to find a way to solve the problem. This incident made things worse and worse.

The two were not very good, but there was indeed no hatred. After apologizing to Stephen, Stephen also returned the salute to Kurt Thomas. After the dispute between the two ended, Robert Horry finally laughed.In the subsequent player meeting, Kurt Thomas first apologized to everyone, and after solving these problems, the player meeting officially started.

First of all, Robert Horry was entrusted by Stephen to announce the team's goals for this season. No matter how difficult the subsequent games will be, this goal will not change.

In terms of itself, after a season of running-in, this Sonics team is indeed very good. Unless there is a problem with itself, otherwise, in terms of strength comparison, other teams should have no threat to the Sonics team.

In terms of opponents, Robert Horry took the team's analysis report and talked about the important opponents one by one. He believed that the old dynasty team is getting old and the new dynasty team has not yet been established. It is indeed a good time for the team to win the championship. Timing, otherwise, it would not be so easy to break through.

This meeting is to build up the confidence of the players to win the championship, analyze it from various aspects, let the players have a clear understanding of the championship, and believe that they will go all the way and finally win the championship. Of course, the content of this meeting More than that, but the main point is this.

In short, it is to tell the teammates that we have a great chance to win the championship this season, so we have to work harder and be more united to win every game. Kurt Thomas is the representative of the young players He also said that he had never seen the shadow of a championship in his career, and now he heard that it was very possible to win it, and he was indeed very tempted. It turned out that he had never thought of it.

All in all, the meeting was a success, and the party was a success, leaving Stephen with a pile of trash in the end, and a lot less of Stephen's hard-earned collection of dishes, well, whoever did it, Stephen has no intention of pursuing it anymore.
