Chapter 185 184: We don't want to dominate the MVP rankings but(2/4)
The powerful Seattle SuperSonics seemed so small in front of them!
I think unless Michael Jordan comes back, no one can really stop these guys!"
The on-site commentator looked at Shay and Feizhu hugging each other on the court and sighed.
Who can defeat those two people?
It's not so much that they pushed Jordan into a desperate situation last season.
Rather, only Jordan has the ability to force Shay and Barkley into a tiebreaker!
On the court, Shea and Barkley were interviewed by reporters as winners for the 20th consecutive night.
The reporter's question is how to evaluate the combination of Payton and Rainman. They are both a combination of No. 1 and No. 4. What is the difference between the two teams?
Barkley put his arm around Shay's shoulders:
"It's unbelievable, Shay, they're asking us how Peyton and Rainman are doing together.
not so good!
Nowadays, the only people in this league who can be called figures are the General, Big Dream, Ewing and that little fish in Orlando.
Me and Shay?
Man, we're superstars who are a cut above the rest!
The four major centers plus me and Shay are the only ones in this league.
Others are not worth mentioning at all!”
This is not Barkleymania. When you have played for a month and a half and still haven't lost, you really feel like you have no opponent.
This is also true, when the Lakers started with a 20-game winning streak, when the Lakers crushed the SuperSonics, which was 17-2 and now 17-3, on the ground.
People finally realized how stupid it was to underestimate the Lakers before the season!
At the press conference, George Karl angrily scolded Shea: "His dirty moves ruined this game! If Kemp was there, we wouldn't lose!"
Of course, George Karl was soon silenced by a bunch of rhetorical questions:
"Shay's dirty move? But we only saw the replay of Kemp hugging Shay in the paint. Coach, did you instruct this?"
"You were already 15 points behind before Kemp left the game. The presence or absence of Kemp didn't seem to have much impact on the game, right?"
"The Sonics were forced to commit 20 turnovers in the game, and Kemp accounted for 5 of them.
If you had Kemp, you would probably have more turnovers, wouldn't you?"
George Karl could not refute these questions. He lost without even a chance to quibble!
Old Buss looked at his 20-game winning streak at home and felt goosebumps all over his body.
In the summer of 1995, even if I quit, I still had to keep Shay and Barkley!
In this way, the Lakers made history.
The second longest winning streak in history. By the way, the longest winning streak in history also belongs to the Lakers.
The day after the game, NBC announced the latest MVP rankings.
There is no suspense, Shai and Barkley firmly occupy the top two positions in the weekly MVP rankings!
Last week Shea was first and Barkley was second. This week Barkley is first and Shea is second.
Although the first and second places are occasionally interchanged, no matter how they are exchanged, the others can only be ranked third at most!
Shay and the Flying Pigs seem to have made this season's MVP selection lose its suspense early!
Magic said it well: "This is a time when the best in the world and the second in the world play together."
As for who is the best in the world and who is the second, the Los Angeles media has a tacit understanding and does not mention this matter.
Anyway, the Lakers championship is over!
The Lakers' legendary 20-game winning streak was widely publicized, while other teams were ignored by the media.
This naturally includes the former king, the Chicago Bulls.
In fact, the Bulls' record this season is pretty good, and Sabonis' integration with the team is perfect.
A center like Sao Paulo is at home in the triangle offensive system.
There is probably no center in the league who knows how to be a pivot better than Sabonis.
Pippen also had the best performance of his career, averaging 24.5 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.9 steals per game so far, both career highs.
However, all these outstanding performances and achievements were not mentioned by anyone!
After Jordan left, Pippen discovered that no one paid attention to him or this team at all!
All the limelight was stolen by Shay and Barkley.
Pippen felt somewhat unbalanced. He believed that the Bulls were still a championship team and the Lakers' biggest rival.
How did it end up in this situation where no one cares about it?
With his performance, why can't he be among the top two in the MVP rankings?
This is so unfair!
Pippen told himself that the Lakers couldn't keep winning.
As soon as the Lakers start losing, their aura will diminish.
After 20 consecutive victories, the Lakers really lost their first game of the season in Houston.
The winning streak ends here. Although it was interrupted, it was already an extremely great experience.
However, what Pippen expected did not happen.
The Lakers lost, but their popularity remains unabated!
And in the subsequent victories, the top two positions in the MVP rankings are still unshakable!
It really couldn't be shaken. Halfway through the regular season, at the end of January, the Lakers had already played 40 games.
And the record is a terrible 36 wins and 4 losses!
Shay and Barkley: We have been in front for a long time and the pressure is great, but our strength does not allow us to keep a low profile. There is no one in this league who can play!
The Lakers' strong defense, as well as the outstanding personal abilities of Shea and Barkley, allowed the team to win consecutive games!
So far, Fliggy is averaging 25.1 points and 11.2 rebounds per game.
Shea averaged 23.4 points, 13.4 assists and 2.8 steals per game.
Whether it is a team or an individual, the performance is impeccable!
They are the only two teams in the league that have not lost by double digits after 40 games.
One is the Lakers and the other is the SuperSonics.
But the SuperSonics' record of 31 wins and 9 losses has been far behind the Lakers!
As Barkley said, he and Shay are the same!
Nowadays, you can hardly see the media reporting on the Lakers without thinking, and you will no longer see anyone saying that Shai is a parallel MVP.
Because for half a season, the media who have questioned the Lakers and Shay have had their faces so swollen that they have nowhere to slap them!
However, after the game in January, Barkley, who had won 36 games, did not celebrate.
Instead, he took two bottles of wine to Shay's house and comforted his good brother:
"It doesn't matter, woman! You can always call for a rainbow tactic if you want! Huh? What is this booklet?"
Buckley said, picking up a thick booklet on Shay's desk.
"Ah don't!" Shay wanted to stop him, but Feizhu skillfully blocked Shay with his fat buttocks on the sofa and opened the book.
Good guy, the moment he opened the booklet, Buckley's pupils dilated.
This booklet can be called a must-read book for every man in his life!
Because it is filled with photos of various girls and their contact information!
Some of the girls’ photos even show them being honest with each other without any support!
And this booklet is seven or eight centimeters thick!
Feizhu showed Zhu Bajie's expression as he looked at the ginseng fruit, and wiped his saliva:
"What a kid, it's not that simple! We broke up just a few days ago, and you've already prepared this kind of pamphlet. Damn it, I'm still so worried about you!"
Yes, although Shay's career is going very smoothly this year, his personal life has encountered some twists and turns.
In the beginning, it was the crazy sister Mai who publicly stated in an interview that she was willing to pay 20 million to let Shay sow seeds in her body.
I have to give Shay a baby!
This news made a big fuss, 20 million, and at this time, the admiral with the highest salary in the alliance only received 5.74 million a year!
20 million, just to spend a good night with Shay.
