After 2010, there were two teams in the NBA that could be considered dynasty teams.
One was the Heat during the Big Three era, who had won the championship two years in a row.
The other team was the current Warriors. Since 2015, they had won three championships in four years.
In comparison, the ruling power of the Warrior Dynasty was clearly stronger.
Because when the Heat won two championships in a row, the Spurs in the Western Conference were only stronger than them. Because the Heat couldn't cross the mountain of the Spurs, they eventually collapsed in the summer of 2014.
The Warriors could really dominate the league. In terms of team strength, no team could be on the same level as them. Even the second-strongest team, the Rockets, was left behind by quite a distance.
What was even more terrifying was that the Warriors were getting stronger every year. No one knew when the Alliance would break away from their rule.
Now, the team had five all-stars. No one in the league could match such a luxurious lineup. Just looking at it made people feel despair.
Although the center, Cousin, would not be able to return to the field until next year due to a torn Achilles tendon, the remaining four stars were enough to crush the other 29 teams.
At present, the Warriors had won six consecutive victories and had not suffered a loss since the start of the season. Their condition was frightening.
In the opinion of the experts, the Nets 'recent performance was not bad, but in front of the Warriors who were at the height of their power, they could only suffer defeat.
It couldn't be helped. The difference in the lineup was too great.
The Warriors had two superstars, Curry and Durant, as well as two All-Stars, Thompson and Green, who were close to superstars. Iguodala and other ordinary substitutes were also good.
On the other hand, other than Wang Ting and Russell, who were more capable, the other players couldn't even make it to the starting lineup if they were switched to a strong team. How could they compete?
Before the match, the betting company announced the odds.
Warriors, 2 to 1.
Nets, 1 to 10.
It was not difficult to see how big the gap between the Nets and the Warriors was.
On this day, the Nets players were called to the recording room by their coach to study the game recordings together.
At this moment, the screen was playing the away game between the Warriors and the New York Knicks on October 27th.
Everyone already knew the result of the match. 123:102, the visiting team won by 21 points.
After watching the video, everyone realized that the Warriors had won more easily than they had expected. It was as easy as eating and drinking.
The game was only late in the third quarter, and the Warriors had already established a 30-point advantage. The Big Four all knocked off for the third quarter.
After the research was completed, the Nets players still looked confident on the surface, but they felt more or less powerless in their hearts.
The deeper one studied, the more one could experience the power of a warrior.
Curry and Thompson's fatal three-pointers, Green's tough defense, Durant's unsolvable offense, and Iguodala's ingenious combination.
How should we play against such a terrifying team?
Sensing that his disciples 'confidence had been thwarted, Atkinson encouraged them,""Guys, show some confidence. No matter how strong the Warriors are, they can't keep winning. There's only one team that can end their winning streak now, and that's us!”
"In the next game, I will send out the most energetic lineup from the beginning to give Oakland a show of strength! Your Majesty!"
"Coach." Wang Ting replied.
"Your dual-point guard play with Dan 'Angelo is quite effective, and you have a good rapport with the other starting players. So, you will replace Ding Weidi in the starting lineup tomorrow.”
In the previous two games, Atkinson had positioned Wang Ting as a " pseudo-substitute, true main force." This was to increase the depth of the team's bench and to give Wang Ting a period of adaptation to the lineup.
Now that the time was ripe, he decided to officially promote this outstanding disciple to the starting lineup.
Hearing that Wang Ting was appointed as the starter, his teammates did not have any objections.
If a player with an average of 31 points, 9 assists, and 4.7 steals per game couldn't play as a starter, it would be unreasonable.
Even Ding Weidi, who had been pushed down, was not dissatisfied. He was a fake starter anyway, so it did not make a difference whether he played first or not.
Russell was half happy and half worried.
He was happy that the longer he was with Wang Ting, the more opportunities he had to benefit.
The worry was that Wang Ting's position in the team was increasing. Perhaps it would not be long before his position as the first core was replaced.
……
At the same time, at New York Airport.
The Warriors appeared in the airport lobby.
As a team that was strong and full of stardom, they never lacked media attention. After getting off the plane, they had not gone far when a large group of reporters flocked to them.
The four most dazzling giants were naturally the focus of the reporters 'interviews.
"Kevin, long time no see." A female reporter quickly caught up with Durant." You guys are going to play against the Nets, who have won four consecutive games. Are you confident in winning?”
"We will always maintain our confidence." Durant replied calmly.
The female reporter continued to ask," Wang of the Nets. He might be your biggest threat. What do you think of him?"”
"Who are you talking about?" Durant frowned.”
The female reporter was a fan of Wang Ting and said proudly,""Wang Ting, this player has performed very well in the past few games. He has caused a big sensation. You should know his name.”
"I don't know. I don't know who you're talking about.”Durant shrugged and shook his head." I mean, I know that there's this person in the league, but I don't know what he did, and I don't know what you mean by sensational.”
The female reporter was a little angry when she saw her idol being looked down upon.
She was about to ask a few more questions, but she was pushed aside by other colleagues. She could only watch Durant leave surrounded by reporters.
