The regular season of the 06/07 season is about to come to an end.

The Lakers, who have long had a bitter rivalry with the Warriors, hope to give the defending champions a hard time with an imperfect conclusion at the Staples Center.

Meanwhile, the defending champions hope to greet the upcoming playoffs with their 64th regular season win.

However, compared to the two previous games between the teams at Oracle Arena, this regular season finale can only be described as lackluster in terms of both intensity and process...

Mont Ellis, who was the loudest in the Lakers camp before the game, only played for 10 minutes in this match.

As the Lakers' Sixth Man of the Year, Ellis's stats are not as glamorous as Qin Yue remembers, but he still averaged 13 points, 3 assists, and 3 rebounds.

Regarding Ellis's playing time in the regular season finale, Lakers assistant coach Brian Shaw explained: "Considering Mont has been out for two months due to injury, we need to ensure his health before the playoffs arrive."

Since that night of falling for Kolker Kardashian at first sight, Odom, who wished to be with her every day, also only earned 19 minutes of playing time in this match.

"Lamar needs to focus his energy on the upcoming playoffs rather than a regular game." In the post-game press conference, "Zen Master" Jackson gave his reasons for cutting Odom's playing time.

Due to the Wild West's influence this year, by the time the regular season finale arrived, the already 54-win Lakers ranked only sixth in the West.

Since defeating the Warriors couldn't improve the Lakers' final ranking, compared to settling scores with the Warriors, the Lakers clearly need to think about...

How they can eliminate the Seattle Supersonics, led by Yao Ming, Garnett, and Ray Allen, who have secured the third spot in the West, in the first round of the playoffs.

This year's West...

Not only the defending champions Warriors need to play "three rounds of finals."

From the first round of playoffs, any team wanting to emerge from the West must be ready for "three rounds of finals."

This undoubtedly makes it the most fiercely competitive year in NBA history for the Western Conference.

And this intensity...

You can't even see its end.

On the night of the 18th.

Kobe put an end to the Lakers' regular season journey with a scoring performance of 41 points, 8 rebounds, and 6 assists.

Although before the game, the Lakers coaching staff wanted Kobe to approach this regular season finale with a more rational attitude, Kobe still upheld his uncompromising persona with his actions in the game.

Regarding this...

Qin Yue, who scored 31 points, 15 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 blocks, and 1 steal for the Warriors, once again victorious at Staples, did not count this regular season finale game intentionally abandoned by the Lakers towards his and Kobe's rivalry.

"This one doesn't count, let's fight next time."

After the game, Qin Yue, who usually holds grudges with Kobe, took the initiative to say.

Of course, after a pause, Qin Yue didn't forget to add: "Let's consider this time as me letting you win."

Seeing this, Kobe responded with a cold smile: "I admire your arrogance. I hope you don't fall too soon in the playoffs."

According to the schedule, if the sixth-ranked Lakers want to face the Warriors in the playoffs, the two teams must meet in the Western Conference Finals.

Thus, at this moment, Qin Yue felt the one being "arrogant" was clearly Kobe himself.

"Your naivety and innocence really make me envious." Qin Yue looked at Kobe, "Wait until you get your FMVP trophy before you criticize my arrogance."

"..."

Qin Yue realized, since last season's unexpected championship win...

He has stood undefeated against many superstars of this era.

Facing O'Neal, he can use "single-core championship" and the finals sweep to take the moral high ground.

Facing Kobe, he can attack with the fact that the opponent has no Finals MVP.

Even when facing his senior Duncan...

He holds a DPOY trophy that Duncan has never touched.

See, with just a bit of "customization," who dares say Qin Yue isn't the GOAT of this era?

The regular season ended successfully.

The next day.

The San Francisco Chronicle dedicated a page to the Warriors, summarizing their regular season journey.

The Warriors' 64 wins in the 06/07 season successfully broke the team's single-season win record in the regular season.

The Warriors' previous regular season win record dates back to the 1975/1976 season.

Led by Rick Barry, Phil Smith, and Jamal Wilkes, they achieved 59 wins.

"Without a doubt, Messiah is leading us to create a great era!"

Two years ago...

If you told Warriors fans in the streets of Oakland that they would not only win the championship but also achieve over 60 regular season wins, they would definitely think you're crazy.

But Qin Yue's arrival has ushered in the Bay Area's most blissful and satisfying beautiful period in history.

In the regular season, Qin Yue, who played all 82 regular season games for the Warriors, averaged 30.8 points (2527 points), 13.4 rebounds (1101 rebounds), 10.6 assists (870 assists), 3.9 blocks (320 blocks), and 1.4 steals (116 steals) per game.

His overall season shooting percentage is 54.8%.

Three-point shooting percentage is 37.4%.

Free-throw shooting percentage is 83.5%.

This data makes Qin Yue the second player in NBA history, following Oscar Robertson, to average a "30+" triple-double in the regular season.
