Shaquille O'Neal once shared his views on social media, believing that among current NBA players, only four have reached a level where they no longer need to prove themselves. Durant, Harden, and Irving were not included in this list. Let's delve into the reasons behind this. Leonard In 2014, Leonard won the Finals MVP as a member of the Spurs, but many believed it was a victory for the Spurs system. However, in the 2019 playoffs, Leonard shattered all doubts with his actions. He led the Toronto Raptors through tough battles and ultimately defeated the then-invincible "Galaxy Warriors" in the Finals with an all-around performance averaging 28.5 points, 9.8 rebounds, 4.2 assists, 2 steals, and 1.2 blocks per game, winning the FMVP again. This proved that he is not just a system player but also a superstar capable of leading a team to win championships alone. James As the face of the NBA in this era, James' career has been filled with glory. He has led his team to the finals 10 times, won 4 championships, 4 regular-season MVPs, 4 Finals MVPs, been selected to the All-NBA First Team 13 times, made 20 All-Star appearances, holds the record for most points in history, and achieved the "411" milestone. In the eyes of many media outlets and fans, James has nothing left to prove, as he is already a legend among active players. Antetokounmpo As the leader of the Bucks, Antetokounmpo not only led the team to win their first championship in half a century but also personally won multiple honors…

On December 28th, Beijing time, the NBA regular season continued with the Indiana Pacers visiting the Boston Celtics. The Celtics have been in poor form recently, losing three of their last four games and just suffering their first consecutive losses of the season; the Pacers' six-game winning streak was just ended by the Thunder, and both teams desperately needed a victory to stabilize the situation. In this game, the Celtics came out swinging in the first quarter, scoring 39 points and quickly establishing a double-digit lead. The Pacers fought back fiercely, but the Celtics still expanded their lead to 22 points at halftime with suffocating offense and defense. After the break, the two teams engaged in a fierce shootout, with the Celtics maintaining a lead of over 20 points. In the fourth quarter, the Celtics unleashed a 20-10 run to extend the lead to over 30 points, making the game lose its suspense. Ultimately, the Celtics defeated the Pacers 142-105. The Celtics and Pacers were opponents in last season's Eastern Conference Finals, but their offensive and defensive capabilities and depth are not on the same level. Facing the aggressive Pacers, the Celtics' key players, Porzingis and Holiday, were sidelined due to injuries, yet they still dominated both ends of the court, controlling the rebounding advantage and raining down threes on their guests! Throughout the game, the Celtics outrebounded the Pacers 52-39, including an 18-13 edge in offensive rebounds, and as a team, they made 23 three-pointers at a 40.4% clip. In contrast, the Pacers only made 11 of their 39…

Fisher and Barnes' wife have always been a hot topic of discussion. The 41-year-old Fisher paid a huge price to marry Gloria, the wife of the other party! Back then, Barnes was often entangled with socialites in hotels, so his wife Gloria could no longer bear it. She was a fiery woman who quickly caused a commotion at home and wanted to divorce Barnes. This incident also affected her husband's state on the court, and he would often get into conflicts with opponents. At that time, Fisher was at a low point in his life. He came to the Knicks and took a five-year coaching contract, but Fisher's coaching record was not satisfactory, so his days were not easy. Besides being unsuccessful in his career, Fisher's private life was also very messy.

The Cavaliers unleashed a relentless offensive assault, scoring an impressive 80 points in the first half and establishing a significant 21-point lead. Despite the Nuggets' efforts to match the Cavaliers' intensity in the second half, the Cavaliers maintained control of the game with their scorching three-point shooting accuracy. Ultimately, the Cavaliers secured a comfortable victory over the Nuggets with a final score of 149-135.

Translation of the article content into English: Recently, US media has selected the top 10 most influential players in NBA history, including household names such as Jordan, James, Kobe, and Curry. Let's take a look at the specific rankings. 10. Magic Johnson Magic Johnson created the "SHOW TIME" Lakers in the 80s and led the team to win five championships, being elected MVP three times. If it weren't for health issues that forced him to retire early, his resume would undoubtedly be even more impressive. 9. Shaquille O'Neal Shaquille O'Neal is hailed as the most dominant center in history, known for his unparalleled strength and beastly physique. During his peak, he led the Lakers to three consecutive championships and was awarded FMVP each time. 8. Yao Ming In terms of historical status, Yao Ming may not even rank in the top thirty, but his influence is no less than any superstar. Yao Ming's emergence established a bridge between the NBA and Asian basketball, and at the height of his popularity, his fame and recognition surpassed even top stars like Kobe and James. 7. Stephen Curry Curry being ranked seventh may seem somewhat underrated, as he not only won four championship trophies for the Warriors but also pioneered the small-ball era. It's not an exaggeration to say that Curry almost single-handedly changed the style of modern basketball, making small-ball tactics mainstream. 6. Wilt Chamberlain Wilt Chamberlain was an "ancient data harvester," setting records that later generations could not match, such as scoring 100 points in a single game and averaging 50…

In an NBA regular season game, the Rockets suffered a surprising 112-113 reversal at the hands of the Timberwolves. The Rockets were leading by a significant margin in the final moments of the game, but the Timberwolves staged an incredible comeback with a 15-2 run that no one could have anticipated. Following the match, the Rockets faced four pieces of bad news. The first major mistake was attributed to Udoka. In the crucial moments of the game, his handling was deemed poor. He did not call a timeout when the opponent was on a scoring streak. Throughout the season so far, Udoka's decisions regarding player rotations and timeouts during decisive periods have been questionable. A timely timeout could have disrupted the Timberwolves' rhythm, but he chose not to do so. Additionally, he persisted in using players who were clearly unsuited for the fourth quarter, which was another significant error. During this time, VanVleet and Green also contributed to the defeat. Green, in particular, made a series of inexplicable moves and turnovers, which significantly altered the momentum on the court. Despite Green's continuous misses throughout the game, Udoka continued to trust him. VanVleet, who scored zero points in the final quarter, also made some rash shots in the closing moments, giving the opponent multiple opportunities to close the gap. These two players have consistently been a hidden trouble, and it might be better to bring in Tate and Holiday, who are more reliable options. After a recent outburst, Whitmore's performance also collapsed. He had just completed a major breakout the day…

Translation of the article content into English: The significance of records is to be broken, and this applies equally in the NBA. When Kareem Abdul-Jabbar retired in 1989, his career total score was set at 38,387 points, and for the next few decades, the media and fans were unanimous in believing that this record would be permanently sealed. However, two years ago, LeBron James surpassed it, and now he has even refreshed the historical total scoring record to 41,000 points. However, there are some records in the long history of the NBA that are almost impossible to break due to factors such as the era and rules, like towering mountains that cannot be surpassed. So let's take a look at them together. LeBron James' "411" With the development of modern basketball, future players' statistics will inevitably become more explosive, so James' 40,000-point record is not impossible to break. However, James' "411" record will undoubtedly be recorded in history and become one of the hardest records to break in the NBA. It should be noted that even if the difficulty is reduced to 30,000 points + 10,000 rebounds + 10,000 assists, no one has been able to achieve this in history, which requires extremely high personal ability, career length, and state stability. Michael Jordan's Ten Scoring Titles As the universally recognized greatest player in history, Jordan created countless records that later generations found difficult to match, but the hardest to break is undoubtedly 10 scoring titles. Even top scorers in history like Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant, James Harden, and Allen Iverson…

The Clippers defeated the Warriors 102-92 at home, securing their second consecutive win and achieving a triple kill against the Warriors this season. With an 18-13 record, they are now fifth in the Western Conference. The Clippers have been on a roll recently, defeating strong teams like the Grizzlies and the Warriors. The Warriors were smart not to play Curry and Draymond Green as they might not have been able to win against the Clippers anyway. After all, the Clippers had already double-killed the Warriors before this game, winning with or without Curry. Therefore, the Warriors might as well conserve their strength for a full-strength matchup against the Suns, especially at home against Durant. The Suns are in poor form today, losing to the Mavericks without Doncic, and Coach Kerr made a wise decision. Additionally, the Warriors almost pulled off a surprise win, reducing a 21-point deficit to just 3 points in the final quarter. Fortunately, Harden, Powell, and Zubac stepped up. Zubac scored 2 points under the basket, Powell redeemed himself with a three-pointer, and finally, Harden hit a crucial 2-pointer to extend the lead from one point to five. In the last two minutes, the difference between Harden and VanVleet was evident. Today, the Rockets led the Timberwolves by 16 points but were ultimately overturned due to VanVleet's choices in the final moments, attempting various long-range threes without success. VanVleet missed three consecutive three-pointers from outside the arc, allowing the Timberwolves to seize the momentum and secure the victory. On the other hand, when the Warriors closed the…
