192. The end of the regular season: breaking the historical record;

After the All-Star Weekend, each team will enter the end of the season.

For those teams who have the opportunity to enter the playoffs, they naturally hope to win more games and completely consolidate their position in the playoffs.

For those bad teams who have never wanted to enter the playoffs from the beginning, they have to find ways to lose more games.

Then, while losing the game, the fans are not reported to be playing counterfeit balls, and the rookie players' desire to win.

You know, losing is a science, and it is not something you can lose just by wanting to lose, especially when two teams that are destined to be badly met.

In this case, both sides want to lose the game, but they are not easy to perform too clearly, so this tests the head coach's ability very much.

Similarly, this is also the reason why there are a group of bad coaches in the league.

Because if they talk about winning, they may know nothing, but if they talk about playing badly, even Yang Fan, who has been a man for two lives, can only say that he will be at a disadvantage.

After all, Yang Fan hasn't experienced what it feels like to lose a game for a long time...

…………………

March is coming, and there is only one and a half months left before the end of the regular season.

As of March 4, the Thunder's record was 58 wins and 5 losses. With only the last 20 games left this season, the Thunder have only lost 5 games in total.

I have to say that this dominance can definitely be called terrifying.

Even according to the current situation, it has become a matter of time before the Thunder breaks the Bulls' best record of 72 wins and 10 losses.

After all, the chances of the Thunder losing five games in the next 20 games are not very high.

As long as Thunder is determined to break this record, the biggest question is how much Thunder can improve its record.

…………………

The Thunder still encountered some resistance throughout March, because everyone in the league currently knows that the Thunder wants to break the Bulls' best record of 72 wins.

So anyone with ability will snipe the thunder.

Although most teams can only watch the Thunder win another victory, the Thunder are also under great pressure when facing some top teams in the league.

Especially at this stage, Yang Fan not only has to work hard to break the record of 72 wins, but also has to prepare in advance for the arrival of the playoffs.

Because no matter how outstanding the regular season is, all teams have only one ultimate goal, that is, the championship trophy.

At the end of March, the Thunder faced the Heat for the second time this season, and this time was also the last time the two sides fought this season.

Finally, after four consecutive quarters of high-intensity fighting, the Heat narrowly defeated the Thunder with a horse-riding archery in the last moment, and narrowly passed the level with a slight advantage of two points, and tied with the Thunder 1:1 in the regular season.

At the same time, the loss in this game also brought the Thunder's record to 65 wins and 6 losses, winning the sixth loss of the season.

Throughout the game, Yang Fan still cut off the Heat's defensive counterattack, but Spo obviously put a lot of effort before this game.

Among them, the decision to mention Charmons to start further strengthened the Heat's backcourt defense.

With Wade's performance of 44 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists in the game, the Thunder's defense was completely broken into a sieve.

Even with their excellent offensive ability, the Thunder once held on to the score, but the three Heat, who had teamed up to score 97 points in the whole game, stabilized the situation and eventually led the Heat to win this victory.

…………………

The time is in April, and the time to end the regular season is getting closer.

Not only did the teams become very cautious, but they also began to intrigue with each other.

I want to choose the opponent I want to challenge most by deliberately losing.

It’s just a pity that all this has nothing to do with the Thunder, because the Thunder’s record this season is really unshakable.

So relatively speaking, only other teams choose the Thunder, and absolutely no Thunder choose the other teams.

Of course, Yang Fan actually didn't care much about which team he faced in the first round of the playoffs.

Because according to the current situation, the Thunder's first round opponent will definitely be one of the three teams, the Grizzlies, the Trail Blazers and the Hornets.

Relatively speaking, the one Yang Fan most hopes to face is definitely the pioneers.

In addition to the fact that the Thunder are familiar with this Trail Blazers, the main reason is that Brandon Roy is reimbursed for the season and has basically abdicated and given up the sages.

Currently, the core figure of this Trail Blazers has become Aldridge.

In addition to Aldridge, the team's highest scorers were 3D player Matthews, and former Elvis Wallace who traded in the late season.

It is no exaggeration to say that except for Aldridge, other players of this Trail Blazers have very average scoring abilities, so once they enter the playoffs, such teams are the easiest to be targeted.

As for the other two teams, the Grizzlies and the Hornets, although it is not difficult for the Thunder, the overall strength of these two teams is definitely stronger than that of the Trail Blazers.

Even though the Thunder just played a "Memphis Massacre" that shocked the league this season, if there is a choice, Yang Fan still hopes to be staggered with the Grizzlies.

After all, this team can indeed be called iron-blooded. Once friction or collision occurs during the game, the Thunder will definitely suffer in the end.

……………………

On April 16, the Thunder had only the last three games left in total, but the Thunder had already made history.

Because the Thunder's record is 72 wins and 7 losses, even if they lose all the next three games, they can still tie the Bulls' best record in history that year.

However, judging from the strength of the Thunder, the chance of losing all three games is completely negligible.

This means that as long as the Thunder wins another game, they will replace the Bulls and become the best team in the regular season in NBA history.

And if the Thunder wins all three games in the last three games, it will raise the record to a point that is impressive.

If 72 wins and 10 losses can still give people confidence to challenge, then 75 wins and 7 losses is definitely a result that people can't imagine.

At least from the moment, the Thunder still has a very good chance to win the last three games.

Because in the last three games, the only one who is more difficult is the Hawks.

As for the other two opponents, the Clippers and the Warriors, it is completely worth mentioning.

Not to mention that it is a pressure-free fight, but if you are determined to win the game, there is absolutely no problem.
