58 wins are like a girl who is about to bloom. If you want to get a hand and eat it, you always have to go through a lot of ups and downs.

At the end of the season, there is no time to be sad about spring and autumn, and sigh to others. The day after playing against the Spurs, the Lakers ushered in the challenge of the Hornets, who were jealous of the playoffs.

Unfortunately, the Lakers lost 103 to 109 at home and lost the opportunity to win 58 immediately.

Moreover, the number of losses that were just tied with the Spurs was further opened, with a record of 57 wins and 16 losses, and was overtaken by the Supersonics, which had 58 wins and 16 losses, and fell to third in the West.

The Lakers team, which defeated the Supersonics last season, was predicted by the league as the top four teams in the division when the league planned the offseason, but they were not a favorite to compete for the championship. Therefore, the schedule at the end of the season was terrible.

Teams like the Spurs, Bulls, Jazz, Magic, etc. mostly only have 10 games in April.

The Lakers are particularly miserable. Not to mention 11 games in April, they still started from the 3rd. From the 3rd to the 21st, they played 11 games in 19 days. For a moment, they felt as busy as February.

After playing home games back to back, the Lakers started a three-game triple away, first of all, the distant Northeast... out of Toronto, the United States.

At 8:22 pm on April 6, after two hours and 22 minutes of the game, the Lakers defeated the Raptors 111-98, and finally won 58!

Not easy!

The Spurs carefully prepared an unexpected and easy victory, but the Hornets suffered a misstep. In the end, they still won 58 wins by tying the vegetables.

Sure enough, 58 wins, real food!

After playing against the Raptors, the Lakers came to Minneapolis in the north-central United States. After a night of rest, they challenged the Timberwolves away.

Zhang Hao doesn't have to complain about this time. Most Lakers players are talking about this unreasonable schedule in the past two days. How could they fly northeast first and then fly back and fly half of the game for the second away game?

However, this often happens in the NBA schedule.

As players, there is no way to do them.

Fortunately, the second opponent in this kind of flight is the Timberwolves. The Lakers really don’t care much about the Timberwolves. The team almost says “I’m playing badly” on their face.

Zhang Hao doesn't care so much about Garnett now. He is paying attention to the stars in the strong teams. Garnett is very talented, but it's still several years away from Garnett, who won the MVP.

...

Finally, I fought with that guy again!

Garnett looked at the opposite side and felt extremely complicated.

After appearing, Garnett looked at the opposite side silently.

On the evening of April 8, the Timberwolves faced the Lakers' challenge at home.

The Minneapolis fans are very enthusiastic, and they are not the kind of New York fans who cheer for their opponents when they meet stronger opponents, but they are really enthusiastic about cheering for their teams, even if their record is so bad.

Garnett was not so happy to hear the cheers of the fans at the scene and so many people shouting "KG".

Compared with the No. 9 pick on the same year who stood next to his teammates after entering the court, Garnett felt that he was nothing...

Ostertag came to Garnett, patted Garnett on the shoulder and said, "Kevin, we can't compare with players like that... Of course, you are also very talented, but that guy is so special."

He was selected by the Washington Bullets in a draft year like 1992. He thought he was so special. He averaged 14.7+9.6+3.8+1.7 per game in the rookie season, and he also thought that he was just not lucky compared to O'Neal and Mourning.

As time passed, he realized that he was too naive at the time. If he was not so naive at the time and did not think that he would have to compare with such a player, but as the Bullets coach and the legendary superstar of the history of the Bullets, he would change his playing style towards the role of the second leader. At this time, he might be the one who partnered with Weber and Howard.

But at the beginning of last season, he still wanted to compete with the talented forward Zhu Wan Howard, who had just been selected by the Bullets, and then the Bullets replaced George Murraysan, who was originally used to exchange Weber, with him. He played for half a season with the Warriors, and was abandoned by the Warriors and finally came here.

Ostertag admires Garnett's talent very much. Seeing that Garnett seemed a little overwhelmed, Ostertag chose to persuade him to avoid Garnett from "taking detours".

Why do you always think about comparing with such a special guy?

Most of the players are just ordinary players.

"Everyone thinks I'm not as good as that guy?"

Garnett groaned and did not answer Ostertag.

He is not a fool, nor is he the kind of person who will fight back when he hears something unpleasant.

But he is not the kind of person who "follows advice".

It would be fine if others didn't say it, but he just trained hard silently.

But some people say that he is not as good as Zhang Hao, and he really... in the future, he proved that he is indeed not as good as Zhang Hao.

During the game, Zhang Hao did whatever he should do. He took the initiative to pull away when he was strictly guarded and shot decisively when he had the opportunity. Under Garnett's rough but urgent defense, Zhang Hao keenly seized most opportunities.

Zhang Hao played so steadily tonight, with a steady 24 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 blocks, and his shooting percentage was also quite outstanding.

On the other hand, Garnett scored 8 points and 8 rebounds with 3 of 12 shots, and he could get about 80 million in contracts.

Seeing Zhang Hao scored a goal, Garnett became impatient. The next time he received the ball, he would think about shooting no matter what the opportunity was. As a result, the Lakers caught him and targeted him.

Garnett's ambition lasted about two hours, three quarters of the game, and then, in the final quarter, he started to autism again.

Zhang Hao made 9 of 16 shots, which was the performance of the first three quarters. He clocked in and got off work in the third quarter. After the Lakers finished the first three quarters, he led by 21 points 79 to 58, and the game entered garbage time.

Zhang Hao and Garnett, the former is recognized as the strongest player in the 1995th class, and the latter is the player with the highest potential in the 1995th class in the American media. Because of physical conditions, Garnett is even better than Zhang Hao.

This is America, Garnett is a black American and will always get extra points.

This match attracted the attention of many teams with ideas about rookies with talent exceeding expectations in this class, and many scouts came.

Originally, many people were looking forward to whether Garnett would explode when facing the strongest people of the same class, just like Zhang Hao was furious against those superstars.

Unfortunately, Garnett used his strength to slap the media in the face of those who were expecting his "talent".

...

The Lakers successfully won the game against the Timberwolves, and the Lakers went further away from 60 wins and achieved a record of 59 wins and 16 losses!

Zhang Hao felt happy by defeating the Timberwolves and defeating Garnett 24-8. He scored 15 days in one game.

At this time, Zhang Hao didn't complain about the strange flying route arranged in the race... Until 9:30 pm on April 10...

At 7 p.m. on April 10, the Lakers came to Denver Plateau to challenge the Nuggets.

After a tragic iron battle, the Lakers still lost.

The Lakers did a good job this time. When they failed to make a shot, they played all their strength to defend, successfully limiting the Nuggets to only score 83 points in the game, but the Lakers themselves made 33 of 84 shots in the game, with a shooting percentage of less than 40%.

The Lakers lost to the Nuggets 78-83. After finally losing another game with the Spurs, they were only half a game away from the Spurs, with a record of 59-17, and the difference between the Spurs and the Spurs reached another game.

So, on April 12, the Lakers, who returned to their home court, gave the Warriors a critical hit...

Once again, the Warriors were regarded as a punching bag. In the away game to challenge the Lakers, the Warriors scored 99 points in the game, losing to the Lakers 99 to 123.

The Warriors know why. The Lakers just lost to the Nuggets. This season, it was rare to meet Zhang Hao who lost to the team where the top 8 picks of the same class were. Then, they encountered Zhang Hao who threw 35 times, made 16 of 35 shots, made 3 of 10 of 3 points, and made 7 of 7 free throws soared 42 points, 11 rebounds, 2 steals and 3 blocks!

Joe Smith, who scored 14 points and 9 rebounds tonight, looked pretty good, but Zhang Hao played for most of the 34 minutes, and he threw more than 20 times during the matchup... He even threw even the iron, and finally the shot was pretty good, with a 45% shooting percentage of 42 points...

Joe Smith is really desperate “Who am I going to provoke whom!”

...

Finally, 60 wins!

In the game against the Warriors, when Zhang Hao saw the No. 1 pick in the same class, he couldn't help but think of the last game of the Nuggets losing, which led to the tragic ending of the first mission goal of the final mission of "This is My Stage".

He scored 16 points in the Nuggets, which was higher than the 9 points of the second-tier Antonio McDyce, but the team lost by 5 points, and he shot the last two goals, but because the difference was 5 points, not just one goal could solve the problem, after playing for 41 minutes, he repeatedly predicted that a No. 8 player might have to enter the NBA. At the critical moment, the Lakers did not score a single point because of his relationship.

Although his teammates don’t blame him as a rookie, the media just joked, “Isn’t it because he can’t make a shot at the critical moment?”, he was really sad and angry. He was rewarded with 10 days of life after torture the top 8 picks in the same class!

Fortunately, the season is over, otherwise I would have been heartbroken and crying.

So, when they played the overall defense, the Warriors, who had a rebounding advantage in the Lakers, he threw it wildly and vented it.

Then, he found that he really broke Jordan's record...

He surpassed Jordan that night after winning 60 wins, and once again made headlines in major media since "Decision 2".

The morning after the game against the Warriors, Zhang Hao got up and looked at the news that he finally started to praise him again, and was in a very happy mood.

The Nuggets and Warriors are the last two matches with the top 8 picks of the same class this season. He won the 20-day life span reward less than 20 days, which is very unwilling and heartbroken, but he is not so heartbroken when he sets Jordan's record.

The feeling that it felt like it was really dominated by the No. 8 jersey last night... It was quite exciting to think about it. It really made him calm in normal condition. He really couldn't throw it like that without any need.

It’s not that he can’t shoot so much, but that it’s not his playing style at all, that is, Joe Smith can defend the inside of the Warriors, and no one else can do it.

“Another small goal:

Target: Special signing player Zhang Hao helped the Lakers win at least 60 wins in the 1995-1996 season. (The Lakers currently have a record of 60 wins and 17 losses, which has been completed)

Congratulations to the host for receiving the advanced reward: a top star experience card.

Advance goal: regular season Western Conference champion.

Advanced reward: One superstar top star experience card.

Note: If you use the top star experience card rewarded by this task before the task is completed or failed, the advanced task will automatically fail.”

After taking another look at the task prompts after defeating the Warriors last night, Zhang Hao felt a little dazed.

Completed...

That's it!

After the All-Star Weekend, the Lakers scored 22 wins and 8 losses. He completed the 60-win mission ahead of schedule without playing in 5 games.

I was just excited last night. I didn’t start learning mode because of excitement. But this morning, I saw a lot of news praising him, Mr. Zhang, to an average of 27 points per game, and a lot of news praising their Lakers’ magical performance this year’s regular season...

In terms of the level of surprise, the Bulls, which currently have 68 wins and 10 losses, are not as surprised as the Lakers.
To be continued...
