At least, Ben Wallace is still here next season, which is very good news for Supersonic players who want to stay in the team for a long time.

At 7 p.m., after the game between the Supersonics and the Mavericks began, the Supersonics and the entire team played very excitedly.

In the first quarter, the Supersonics scored 39 points in a single quarter!

With a score of 39 to 28 in a single quarter, the Supersonics led by 11 points in the first quarter. Although the Mavericks scored 35 points in the second quarter, and blocked the Supersonics' scoring momentum, the Supersonics scored only 26 points in the second quarter.

But at the end of the half, the Supersonics still led by 65-63 by two points into the second half.

In the third quarter, the Supersonics began to control the situation, with a score of 25 to 21 in a single quarter, widening the gap again and leading by 6 points into the final quarter.

The Mavericks struggled hard in the final quarter. Old Nelson did a good job of deploying troops on the defensive end, and the Supersonics only scored 22 points.

But the Supersonics' defense around Ben Wallace restricted the Mavericks from scoring only 19 points in the last quarter!

In the end, the Supersonics defeated the Mavericks 112-103 and won three consecutive victories!

With 46 wins and 15 losses, the Supersonics continued to hold the second place in the West.

Ben Wallace played 38 minutes tonight, scored 9 points, 2 assists and 2 blocks, plus 23 rebounds, setting a new high for individual rebounds.

If you want to tell me what's wrong... Ben Wallace grabbed 10 offensive rebounds, but only scored 9 points and 2 assists, 4 of which were still obtained by eating cakes.

Make a choice on a major event in life, no matter how sure that the choice is correct, you will still be more excited than usual at the moment.

Executing the player option is really a 'big event in life' for Ben Wallace.

After the season where he performed best in his career, he can get a seven-year contract with an average of 8-9 million US dollars a year, and drag it until next year. If his performance drops a little, the market for the new contract will definitely be affected.

Nearly 30 years old, a defensive player, a short center...

Many people can think that Ben Wallace will play hard tonight.

But Ben Wallace is not the one who fought the Supersonics tonight.

Zhang Hao made 17 of 33 shots tonight, including 3 of 8 three-pointers, plus 7 of 9 free throws, scoring 44 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks.

Those who don’t know about it were too excited to think that Zhang Hao had executed the middle-class salary option.

The attitude Zhang Hao showed was not the pleasure of "my strongest partner in the inside line to stay in the team with a salary cut." It seemed as if he had encountered something very unhappy.

Although Zhang Hao's shooting efficiency was not high tonight, his overall performance was very good, and the Supersonics won... After the game, the most discussed thing was still Ben Wallace's impact on the league structure only won more than 5 million US dollars in the new season.

Before Ben Wallace executes the player options, everyone believes that after Jason Williams' contract expires next season, he will be topped by Ben Wallace's contract.

Now, people's expectations for the Supersonics next season are about to rise again...

...

...

The NBA was very popular in March, but this season, it was the popularity created by the league spent a lot of money. The league’s expectation is that a star will convert the popularity created by this into its own.

What the league is most looking forward to is Zhang Hao.

But unexpectedly, the first news that non-areas promoted by the news came from Ben Wallace...

‘I really didn’t expect that Ben Wallace’s best player of the month would bring such a change… Is this the dominance of the era-level superstars?’

David Stern looked at the newspaper on his desk and was almost hyping up the issue of Wallace's cheap contract next season, so he could only smile helplessly.

‘The pattern of one super and many strong people has been formed. Without the pressure from this Buddha to other geniuses, the alliance would be difficult to enter the era of shining stars, right?

pity……

Since this is the case, then adjust the promotion plan in this direction, and the domestic market will gradually recover. After March craziness, the focus will be on Europe and Asia.

I didn't expect that the person who represented NBA to enter the European sports market was actually a Chinese.'

...

On March 6, the Supersonics narrowly defeated the Rockets 100-94 away.

Playing against the Rockets and Celtics, it is always very uncomfortable, and their players are so resilience that it is madly strong.

The Supersonics won four consecutive victories and their record increased to 47 wins and 15 losses.

The fans felt a pity that Zhang Hao was 30 points tonight and failed to play 40+ in three consecutive games.

After the Supersonics defeated the Mavericks the day before yesterday, Zhang Hao's number of 40+ games in a single game this season has increased to 21, tied with Bob McAdu and tied for fourth in history. One game away, he can monopolize the fourth in history and start to attack Rick Barry.

However, it didn't take long. On March 8, the Supersonics played against the Clippers at home. Zhang Hao scored 45 points, and for the 22nd single game this season, surpassing Bob McAdu and playing in the fourth place in history!

It's just that his performance of 16 of 36 shots is Zhang Hao's second worst offensive performance this season. There was a 21-game iron in a single game, and this time he was 20-game iron in a single game... Zhang Hao's 20-game iron in a single game reached 9 times, surpassing Anthony Walker and coming to fourth place in active service!

The top three are Jordan's 32 times, Iverson's 23 times, and Starkhouse's 11 times.

The number of 40+ games in a single season has reached the fourth place in history, and the number of 20 games has reached the fourth place in an active service... It's a coincidence.

What people care more about at this time is the list of 20 single games.

After Zhang Hao has reached 22 games with 40+ times in a single game, he will not be able to complete it in three or five games.

The active single-game iron-striking list posted by major media is more attractive.

Jordan's 16-year career, in addition to the two seasons he joined the Supersonics, he only played 18 games in the previous 14 seasons, including the sophomore reimbursement, and played 17 games at the end of the 94-95 season after his first retirement. Each season has 20 iron games in a single game...

Jordan's 32 single games with 20+ iron is the highest since detailed statistics.

In comparison, Zhang Hao's performance in high iron making is quite rare, 9 times.

Iverson is stance to come from behind and surpass Jordan.

However, Kobe's side only had 5 performances in a single game with 20 iron starts, as many as Carter, which was really surprising.

Some media analyzed that Kobe has Maddie's pass and control, and this season, with strong inside players like Malone, it is really difficult to have too many high iron shots.

However, it is also interesting that Kobe's average iron volume in five games with 20 irons started in a single game... Average of 26.4 irons per game, and a total of 132 irons in 5 games.

...

Zhang Hao's 20-strong single game sparked discussions about the "worst shooting individual show". The Supersonics lost to the Clippers 95-104 at home, and no one cared about it... There were also people.

The Lakers star saw that the Supersonics actually lost to the Clippers, and was so irritable.

On March 9, the Clippers returned to Los Angeles. The second away game was back to back, against the Lakers. O'Neal scored 52 points, 19 rebounds and 6 blocks, leading the Lakers to massacre the Clippers 122-99...

All the Clippers players are going crazy. They didn’t mess with O’Neal this time, and it wasn’t March 6th. The Lakers didn’t play on the 6th that day!

Or did O'Neal misread 6 and 9? But it's not right! Although it's still playing in this stadium, the floor is from the Lakers tonight! It's not their home court for the Clippers!

Just because I won the Supersonics?

Too bullying!

...

...

From returning to home to playing the Clippers, the Supersonics have ushered in 7 days and 5 games, first one back-to-back, one day off, one day off, and one back-to-back.

This is slightly better than 5 days and 4 games + 1 7 days and 5 games, but it is not much better.

In these 5 games, Kassel and Jordan rested 3 games.

Although it was a staggered rest, there was still one game where neither of them played.

Including the game against the Clippers, the Supersonics achieved a record of 3 wins and 2 losses.

On March 14, after the Supersonics lost to the Mavericks 99-108 at home, they finished 67 games and suffered a 17th loss in the season.

Although the winning rate of these 5 games is not high, the Supersonics still became the third team in the league to win 50 wins in half of March!

In these 5 games, including the game against the Clippers, Zhang Hao scored 40+ times, scored 43 points when defeating the Grizzlies, scored 46 points when defeating the Trail Blazers, and scored 81 points with Jordan, who scored a season-high 35 points.

Another thing is that in this game, Zhang Hao made 16 of 35 shots and scored 41 points.

Losing to the Mavericks is not a big problem. As for the team itself, the Supersonics no longer cares so much about the victory or defeat of a team in the regular season.

You will care about the outcome of the match with a certain team, which often comes from the ideas of a certain player.

But in this game with the Mavericks, the Supersonics did encounter some problems...

...

"Mr. Jordan is out for a week?"

"It's best to take a break for about two weeks. Although Michael has excellent physical fitness and athletic ability, just like other 33 and 4-year-old veterans, he has excellent injury recovery ability, like a young man, but to be on the safe side, Michael, I hope you can rest until April before returning." Team Smith Andre Callahan said behind and turned to look at Jordan.

Jordan was about to say something, Doug Collins and Larry Harris wanted to say something, but they didn't have time.

Zhang Hao took the conversation first: "Okay, we know, Mr. Callahan, let Mr. Jordan rest for two weeks, and then I will get him a team doctor certificate."

"No!" Jordan immediately retorted: "One week is enough, no, it doesn't matter if three days, just twist my feet and I can play the game tomorrow."

Due to majeure factors, Jordan has given up a lot of persistence in recent years.

But some things just cannot be changed.

A strong personality!

Jordan will never give in his life unless he gives shares to the ring.

But this matter can be recovered in one week and rest for two weeks... He gave up some persistence and accepted a round rest. He had 11 games off in the first 67 games of this season, and there were no matches in the previous 11 back-to-back games.
To be continued...
