At the end of the first quarter, the SuperSonics already had a nearly double-digit score advantage.

And, this is just the beginning.

In the following games, this point difference continued to widen, and the situation was completely one-sided.

Home field advantage, who doesn’t think so?

Especially Wang Hao, with the referee's protection, he couldn't play too easily.

He scored with various easy breakthroughs, and sometimes even made free throws. He had never played such an easy game.

The Kings had all kinds of scruples when defending him, which gave Wang Hao more room to play.

In addition to constantly attacking the inside, he also did not forget his own advantages.

This is what distinguishes him from other stars.

Taking advantage of his opponent's lax defense on the outside, he suddenly struck again.

Especially today, his three-point shooting touch was particularly good.

After Christie fell into a foul crisis and ended the game, the Kings' defense against Wang Hao was compromised again.

Turkoglu and Peja are not good at defense, and both of them are too tall and too slow!

If they really had to defend Wang Hao, they would have to be broken into pieces.

As for Bobby Jackson, this guy is a good offensive player, but his defense is really not that good.

What's more, with his height of less than 190 centimeters, it is impossible to defend Wang Hao.

In the previous four series, Christie averaged more than 42 minutes per game.

The few 6-minute breaks are often when Wang Hao comes off the field, and he has a chance to rest.

The Kings' forward and defensive line is not a big problem, but Wang Hao eliminated it today.

Wang Hao cannot be restricted and Wang Hao can get whatever he wants. This is very fatal for the Kings.

And when the Kings' entire attention is focused on Wang Hao, others in the SuperSonics also have room to perform.

The role of a star is not just to score points, attract opponents to double-team, and force opponents to change their defensive tactics.

The most important thing is to score at the critical moment and achieve a fatal blow.

With four SuperSonics players scoring in double figures and Wang Hao scoring 43 points, they easily won the game at home.

107:92

The SuperSonics won at home with a huge advantage of 15 points, winning the crucial battle of Tianwangshan.

The SuperSonics won the match point, which also means that in the next two games, they can advance if they win one.

For a game like this, there will naturally be disputes after the game.

Especially as the loser, the Kings complained collectively, looking like they had been wronged.

"My God, Wang alone made 18 free throws, and our team only made 22."

"It's really unimaginable that a crucial game in the playoffs will end like this!"

"One game can affect a series, a series, and that's a team's efforts throughout the season."

…

"Wang, what do you have to say about the Kings' complaints?"

"What I want to say is that sports competition is like this, full of things that you can't predict.

What we need to do is to forge a stronger mentality. Looking forward, victory may not be far away.

A team that only knows how to complain and express grievances cannot become a championship."

Upon hearing this, all the reporters were dumbfounded.

Not long ago, they were also doing the interview, and they seemed to have heard a familiar passage.

However, the person speaking has changed.

The last time it was the Kings who said this, this time it was the SuperSonics who said this.

The two passages cannot be said to be completely unrelated, they can only be said to be exactly the same.

It is precisely because of the appearance of these two games that the major media paid full attention to the game between the SuperSonics and the Kings.

After all, this kind of competition is a gimmick.

Like the Lakers and Spurs, watching them before the game, that is definitely the biggest highlight of this series.

But who would have imagined that facing the invincible O'Neal, even the twin towers composed of David Robinson and Duncan would be helpless.

The final situation can only become one-sided.

As for the one-sided game, it is the one with the least gimmicks and the least attention from fans.

TNT TV station, today, is still the old pairing of Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley.

"4:3, it will definitely be 7 battles!"

Charles Barkley was chatting there, and Kenny Smith asked jokingly.

"Don't you support the king?"

"Of course, so I think they can win the final victory, but they will only play seven games."

"Why not 6 games? It can be seen that the SuperSonics have a good way to deal with the Kings.

The Kings, on the other hand, have not been able to deal with Wang and Christie's effectiveness so far, but the Kings can only rely on him."

"Oh, Kenny, you should be able to see that at this point in the game, the home field advantage is already very important.

Game 6 will be in Sacramento, and I don't think they'll miss the opportunity."

…

Not just TNT, but also major media, most predictions are to play seven games.

Whether you think the SuperSonics can win or the Kings can advance, it will be the seventh decisive battle.

If anyone least expects to play Game 7, it must be the Sonics.

As for the Kings, it is naturally the opposite. Without Game 7, there is only one possibility.

They were eliminated.

For Wang Hao, once the seventh game is reached, not only will the uncertainties increase greatly, but there will also be an important issue.

That's the Lakers!

The Lakers got a lot of rest time, but they will enter the Western Conference Finals with a tired attitude.

This is very detrimental to the residents.

Therefore, the battle must be resolved in the sixth game.

Facing the Lakers, even if you try your best, you may not be able to win, let alone in an unfavorable situation.

After Jordan retired, NBA officials have always hoped to withdraw from the star player who can acquire Jordan and the team that can acquire the Bulls.

Today's O'Neal, Kobe, and the Lakers look good and have a good chance of doing so.

Everyone understands that this year's Lakers actually have a great chance of winning three consecutive championships.

The more this is the case, the more the Sonics need to be more prepared to face this opponent with the most comprehensive attitude.

It's not just Wang Hao who thinks this way, it's the same for all Supersonic players.

Back to Sacramento again, back to Sleep Train Arena again.

It's still a familiar environment, and it's still the familiar roar of fans.

"CCTV, CCTV..."

Under the spotlight, this crucial battle is about to begin.

It's not just the Sonics who are eager to win, but also the Kings. This is a battle with their backs against a cliff.

"Beep!"

As the material whistle blows, it's game time.

The Kings took the lead in attacking, and Wang Hao still appeared in front of Peja. As soon as he came up, he increased the confrontation.

In the third and fourth games, Peja played so well at home that Paul Westphal paid special attention to it.

During the fifth battle, he arranged for Wang Hao to defend, and naturally it was the same resident today.

When facing the SuperSonics, the two-high post support play is not appropriate, so change it to one high and one low.

Divac holds the ball in the high post while Chris Webber looks for opportunities in the low post.
