Chapter 162: The Point Guard's Duel (Subscription Requested!) Ask for a commuter pass! )

Lu Fei remembered that the middle-aged man was the boss of the Trailblazers, Paul Allen.

No wonder he showed up in the library at the University of Washington, no wonder one of his owners would come to watch the team's away games.

Because Paul Allen is a Seattle native.

Not only is he a Seattle native, he is also one of the founders of Microsoft Corporation in Seattle and owner of the NFL's Seattle Seahawks.

Lu Fei suddenly had a feeling that he was wrong.

But since he has missed it, Lu Fei has no idea of catching up and having to get acquainted again, anyway, sooner or later he will have the opportunity to see him again.

The next day, the supersonic embarked on a road trip.

No. 15 SuperSonics 110:93 victory over the Bulls.

The Bulls have been in a slump since the Jordan dynasty, and the only player on the team who can take a shot is Jamal Crawford, and it should be going straight to the lottery right now.

Lu Fei scored 19 points and 7 assists, and went down early, but Brent Barry was mixed up in the bench lineup, scoring 11 assists.

And the supersonics' iron-blooded defense has been well continued, and the iron-blooded defense made then-Bulls head coach Pete Myers praise: "The supersonic will skyrocket this season." ”

Supersonic on the 18th flew to the South Coast to take on the Miami Heat.

No one expected that the supersonics, who had just won three in a row, would collapse on the sands of Miami.

In this game, Wynne Wade, a rookie of the Heat, played a supernatural performance, scoring 36 points, 9 rebounds, 4 blocks and 3 steals, while the SuperSonics felt cold in their hands, and the whole team hit 30 irons angrily, turning Miami's basket into a piece of steel.

Immediately after the game, the media who had been slapped in the face before stood up: "Supersonic is a paper tiger, and their shooting cannot be a weapon for them to win." ”

Wade's strong performance made the media even begin to ridicule the vision of the supersonic draft, when some Lu Hei media clearly stated that Lu Fei's physical fitness would be crushed in the NBA, although now Lu Fei's physical fitness can no longer be a condition for them to compare, but they still question Lu Fei's ability is not as good as Wade.

"If SuperSonics had chosen Dwyane Wade, it would have been a better choice."

This made Lu Fei a little unhappy, of course, he also had a reason for losing, his hand was not good today, and he missed the basket a few times, so he passed the ball more to his teammates.

Who would have thought that a teammate would feel worse in the hand!

And Riley, the head coach of the Heat, directly grasped this point, shrinking the defense and letting you shoot from the outside, and the result is a vicious circle, the more you have to shoot, the more you can't shoot, and when the SuperSonics find their touch again, chasing points has become a difficult task.

After the game, reporters interviewed Wade: "Who do you think you or Lu Fei are the best backcourt players in this year's rookies?" ”

Wade chose Lu Fei without hesitation.

Everyone thought it was a commercial hype, but no one knew that this was Wade's true thoughts.

Although Lu Fei lost the game today.

No. 21 away against the Grizzlies.

It seems to be an explosion after the loss of the previous game, and the SuperSonics pressed the Grizzlies to the ground for almost the entire game, without giving the Grizzlies any respite, and directly took away the game by a large score.

On the 23rd, the SuperSonics came to Washington and played against the Wizards.

Gu Tang came to the MCI Center Arena to cheer Lu Fei.

The Washington Wizards, also known as the Washington Wizards, are the team with the most name changes in the NBA.

They were called the Chicago Packers, then the Chicago Wester, and then the Baltimore Bullets, the Capital Bullets, the Washington Bullets, and the Washington Wizards until 1997.

The Wizards played the underdog for most of the '90s, only making the playoffs in the 1996-1997 season.

In the 2000-01 season, the Wizards won just 19 games.

In his first season with the Wizards in 2001-2002, Michael Jordan averaged a team-high 22.9 points, 5.2 assists and 1.42 steals per game, leading the team to 18 wins from last season, from 19-63 to 37-45.

He also scored 51 points against the Bobcats on December 29, the highest score in the MCI Center.

As a result of Jordan's comeback, the Wizards had the largest regular season audience in the entire league. The team sold out a record 41 home games, with a further 38 away games sold out.

But the Wizards are only 10th in the East this season.

In his final NBA season in 2002-03, Jordan was the only player on the team to play full attendance in 82 games, starting 67 of them, averaging 20 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.8 assists, and 1.5 steals per game, while shooting 45 percent from the field and 82 percent from the free-throw line. The Wizards have a 37-45 record this season.

This season, the Wizards are ninth in the East, an improvement of one place from last season, but it doesn't make much difference.

As strong as Jordan, he couldn't bring the Wizards to the playoffs.

Jordan then announced his retirement again.

However, this season the Wizards have changed their head coach, another Jordan - Eddie Jordan.

So far, the team has been in excellent form, winning three of their first five games, but then three consecutive defeats have followed, and they desperately need to prove themselves against the SuperSonics.

Lu Fei knew that if this team wanted to rise, it would have to wait.

After all, Arenas had just joined the team.

When it comes to Arenas joining the Wizards, one clause has to be mentioned: the Arenas clause.

Arenas became a restricted free agent with early Bird rights in 2003. The Washington Wizards offered Arenas a contract with a starting salary of $8.5 million, but the Warriors could only afford to give the early Bird Quan exception, which was around $4.9 million at the time.

So they couldn't match the contract at all, and they could only watch Arenas go.

In order to protect the rights and interests of the parent team, this loophole was filled in the 2005 collective bargaining agreement by such a clause: the Arenas clause.

This game became a night of scoring between Lu Fei and Arenas, Arenas scored 45 points, while Lu Fei only scored 39 points, but he took away the victory.

And Lu Fei's 39 points became the highest score for this year's rookie.

When the reporter asked: "Is it because of the alignment with Arenas that you burst out with a strong scoring ability?" ”

Lu Fei smiled.

His gaze fell on Gu Tang, who was waiting for him in the distance: "No, I just don't want to lose in front of someone." ”

Gu Tang smiled, smiling like a flower.

Reunions are always short-lived, and after spending a day with Gu Tang, Lu Fei had to part with her, and his next opponent will be the Nets, who have a second best record in the East to the Pacers.

This is a team that has reached the finals in the previous two years.

And this game was also hailed by the media as a showdown of point guards!
