The next day, at 10 p.m. on Oct. 31, the SuperSonics and Clippers played Game 2 of the regular season.

Because it was a Friday, the game was scheduled late, and office workers came to watch the game after work on Friday.

Lu Fei continued his strong performance in the previous game, following the comprehensive data of 23 points, 11 assists, 4 rebounds and 1 steal in the last game, this game scored 19 points, 14 assists, 7 rebounds and 2 steals with a double-double.

and led the SuperSonics to another big win with a score of 107:87.

Lu Fei also became the first first-year rookie player in the history of the SuperSonics to score two consecutive double-doubles in the first two games of the regular season.

The SuperSonics also ranked first in the league with a two-game winning streak.

Ray Allen also temporarily ranked third in the league's scoring list with an average of 29.3 points per game, not that he didn't score high enough, but since the start of the season, most teams in the league have only played one game, and Tracy McGrady and Kobe Bryant have both scored 30+ points.

According to ESPN statistics, Ray Allen's assist rate by Lu Fei's pass is as high as 32%, that is, three of the ten goals he threw were assisted by Lu Fei.

Everyone understands that Lu Fei has faintly become the second leader of this team.

The day after the game, the two teams continued to do a day of NBA promotion activities in Japan, and by the way, they were interviewed by media reporters.

Reporter: "Mr. Lu Fei, first of all, congratulations on breaking the team record, the team can win two consecutive victories, showing a completely different look from last season, what do you think is the reason?" ”

Lu Fei smiled: "It is inseparable from the team's efforts to win, all our players work the field, which is the key to winning, and there is the strategic strategy of Coach Mike Milan, without his tactical guidance, we would not have won the game." ”

Lu Fei has always responded to the media's questions in this way.

Reporter: "Mr. Radmanovic didn't get a chance to play in these two games, what do you think about this?" ”

Lu Fei: "Radmanovic is a very good basketball player, I like the feeling of playing with him on the court, he is a great teammate, as for why he didn't play, I don't know exactly why, I think you can go and interview Mr. Radmanovic and maybe you can get the answer. ”

The reporter ended the interview with a smile on his face, but he was secretly thinking: Is this a rookie? Answering a question is like a bottle with wax on it.

Finally, after all the activities in Japan, the team flew back to Seattle.

Back in Seattle, the team will have a week off.

This is the league's preferential treatment for them to play in Japan, and their next game will be against the Los Angeles Lakers on November 7.

In the second round of the 2003 Western Conference playoffs, the Lakers lost to the Spurs with a total score of 2-4, and the team's dream of four consecutive championships was shattered!

In the summer of 2003, the championship-winning Lakers brought in two legendary superstars, Payton and Malone.

The outside world was shocked by the deal, and the Lakers formed a luxurious F4, top center O'Neal, top power forward Malone, top scorer Kobe, and top playmaker Payton.

This lineup has made the outside world think that the championship is in their bag.

Pistons small forward Prince told the media: "When the news of the trade came, my reaction was that the championship went to the Lakers. ”

Lu Fei knew what the result was, so he didn't sigh much.

He just remembered that he could play Kobe Bryant, and there was a faint excitement in his heart.

Carefully analyzing the Lakers' luxury lineup, it is not difficult to find that they are not as strong as they imagined.

This team is full of contradictions, and it is an aging team.

Ma Long is 40 years old this year, and he is no longer as brave as he used to be.

He was suppressed by Jordan at the peak of his career, and then with the rise of Duncan and O'Neal, he was suppressed by these two superstars.

As a result, Malone never won the championship.

In order to get a championship ring before retiring, Malone accepted a $1.5 million base salary contract offered to him by the Lakers.

He just wanted to be able to win the championship with the OK combination!

Peyton also had a similar tragedy to Malone, who was also a superstar in the league at the peak of his career, when he and his teammate Kemp led the SuperSonics to the Finals.

However, his team was defeated by the Bulls, led by Jordan.

His career has also been suppressed by Jordan, coupled with the rise of other powerhouses in the West. He also never won an NBA championship.

Therefore, the 35-year-old Payton also accepted the mid-class contract offered to him by the Lakers.

At this time, Payton is about to turn 36 years old, and he is no longer as brave as he once was.

His purpose for coming to the Lakers is clear, and he is also to follow the OK group to win the championship.

This year, the Lakers' two core players, Kobe Bryant and O'Neal, are still at the peak of their careers, and they are in the middle of the game.

Therefore, at this time, the Lakers are still the world of OK combinations, and Malone and Payton are just their auxiliary roles, not real giant players.

At this time, Malone and Payton are at best excellent main players, not giant players.

It's just that they were too famous in the league at that time, which made the outside world mistakenly think that the Lakers F4 was holding together at that time.

Of course, Lu Fei also knows the ending.

……

"Lu Fei, come and rest." Ray Allen walked into the training gym.

"Nope." Lu Fei shook his head: "Wait for me to vote for another hundred." ”

This match with the Lakers will be broadcast live in China, and Lu Fei also wants to play an excellent performance, although Kobe Bryant is very strong, but Lu Fei also wants to win.

Ray Allen shook his head and smiled bitterly.

He himself is already a training maniac, but he didn't expect Lu Fei to be crazier than him.

"I think you should meet your new teammates." Ray Allen laughed.

"Huh?" Lu Fei was stunned, stopped shooting, and turned around to see a bareheaded player standing at the door of the training hall.

"Let me introduce, Sean Battier, Lu Fei." Ray Allen told them: "Battier has passed the medical and will train with the team today. ”

That's good news.

Originally, I was thinking that relying on Ray Allen to defend Kobe Bryant was a little difficult for him, but it should be much better for Batil to come.

Lu Fei and Battier hugged.

"By the way, there's one more thing to tell you." Ray Allen smiled: "Half an hour ago, the team officially announced a deal with the Los Angeles Clippers, sending Radmanovic + Joan Barry from the Clippers in exchange for Bobby Simmons + first-round picks, and your compatriot - Wang Zhizhi. ”

When Lu Fei heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief.

Finally, it's done......

It's just a pity that the Barry brothers were broken up like this, and Joan Barry didn't even play a game!

……

After Battier practiced with the team, Ray Allen finally realized the oppressiveness of Battier's defense, and lamented that any backcourt player who encounters a defender like Battier is afraid that he will take off a layer of skin.

And McMillan is also pleased with the team's new defense, and he even thinks that maybe the team can make the playoffs this year.

On the third day, Wang Zhizhi came to supersonic to report!

He saw Lu Fei and finally understood what he meant by the phrase that he wanted to be teammates with you.

Lu Fei smiled at him, the sun was shining.
