Yu Fei is back, although the result is not surprising.

This incident also made Yu Fei realize the complexity within the Wizards.

On the surface, Pauline and Jordan have common interests, but Jordan's "play" is still too stable, and obviously, Yu Fei is not the only one who can't stand his lofty posture.

In Yu Fei's impression, this is the first time that Pollin has stood up against Jordan since he arrived.

The result ended in a complete victory for Pauline.

But will Jordan die down? Yu Fei doesn't see it that way, but he has already used this matter to declare his existence and weight, and even Jordan will no longer treat him as a simple rookie.

Yu Fei doesn't want to care about the higher-level struggles, he just wants to play well, so as long as Jordan doesn't go too far, he is still willing to be a good player.

A day later, on Christmas, Yu Fei and Yu Fenglin returned to their hometown in Kent for the holiday.

Probably because the family was a little deserted, Yu Fenglin rarely cared about Yu Fei's life events: "You play ball and play ball, you can still find a girlfriend, right?" ”

"Haven't you been watching the news lately?" Yu Fei didn't expect that as soon as he finished fighting with Jordan, his mother began to care about his love life.

Seriously, where did he have time in the past?

"No matter how big the news is, what does it have to do with you, aren't you just having a little conflict with your teammates?"

"yes, that's right, well, I'll ask Tony to introduce me to a few when I get back."

"Tony? Do you want him to introduce you? Although Yu Fenglin has no ill feelings towards black people, she is really worried that Lawson will introduce Yu Fei to an unreliable black girl, "You should let QD (Quint Dimio) help you with this kind of thing." ”

"Okay, I'll talk to him when I get back."

After the holiday, Yu Fei needed to rush back to meet the team, while Yu Fenglin had something to do temporarily and stayed in Kent.

On Dec. 27, the Wizards departed from their home stadium for Indiana.

This is Yu Fei's first away trip with the team after a protective suspension of more than half a month.

It is worth mentioning that the person sitting next to Yu Fei is no longer Steve Wych, a reporter for the Washington Post, but Thomas Flynn for the Washington Times.

There are two main reasons for this situation, one is that Whitekey is Jordan's royal microphone to the outside world, and he is a genuine Jordan descendant.

Flynn was temporarily transferred from The Times, and he offended Collins on his first day with the Wizards, and Jordan refused to be interviewed by him and did not let anyone reveal his news to him, Yu Fei was the only Wizards player willing to accept him.

Naturally, Flynn took the place of Witch in Fei's heart.

Because Yu Fei's relationship with Jordan has broken down, Waige can't do anything for him anymore, but he needs an influential local media outlet to be his mouthpiece, and Flynn is the perfect replacement.

Although Flynn himself didn't want to be Yu Fei's person, he didn't really have a choice.

"Hey Thomas, do you have any suggestions for me tonight?" Yu Fei asked.

Flynn asked, "Do you think a sports journalist must be a basketball expert?" ”

"I don't think so, but I know you're going to pretend to be an expert when you're covering the Wizards." Yu Fei smiled, "Let's talk about it, I like to hear what laymen think about walkers. ”

Amateur. You really talk.

"I think Indiana are a well-balanced team, but they haven't been able to reach their full potential." Flynn hit the nail on the head, "Isaiah Thomas is a problem. ”

Yu Fei had an unsurprising expression: "I've heard the legendary story of Isaiah running the originally thriving CBA (the minor league in the United States) out of business, but I didn't expect his coaching ability to be so 'good'?" I think that if you look at the whole league, only Michael's leadership can fight against it. ”

This man said in front of many media outlets the other day that he had learned to respect veterans.

Only two days later, the word respect was dismantled by him and only a "" remained.

Fortunately, Jordan has the habit of wearing headphones to listen to songs on the plane, so Yu Fei's jokes did not reach his ears.

"Do you mind if I put your words on tomorrow's news?" Flynn asked expectantly.

"I mind, I just reconciled with Michael, wouldn't it be disrespectful for you to do this?" Yu Fei said of this, "However, Michael is the most tolerant person I have ever met, I believe he won't mind, since he won't mind, then I don't think I should mind, you write, don't help me anonymous, I don't change my name or surname."

Flynn was willing to bet anything, and within a week, Yu Fei and Jordan would have another bickering.

They are turning into a pair of OK "in an ideal state".

This "ideal state" is, of course, for the media.

The tension between Yu Fei and Jordan is exactly what the media wants to see in OK. It's a pity that Kobe Bryant has been a bit of a correction in the past two years, and a good prodigal investment master should not listen to the team's advice to be a perfect team player, although he occasionally lost control and had a lot of friction with O'Neal, but since they won the championship in 2000, there has never been a national breaking news comparable to "he said he wanted to trade me".

When will news like Kobe Bryant go head-to-head with O'Neal in the offseason and then shout "This is my team" and be slapped in the face again (1)? Flynn thought and closed his eyes.

Conceco Arena

Yu Fei, as before, came to the scene in advance to warm up.

The staff here are preparing for the competition.

During the entire training session, only Pacers coach Isaiah Thomas was present.

Thomas heard about Yu Feizai's "feat", and specially came to say: "Young man, I like what you do, it's important to insist on yourself!" ”

This sentence translates as: continue to embarrass Danzi, and you love to watch it.

Yu Fei didn't say anything about his words.

In the evening, the spectators entered the stadium, and the players who had ideas about the game also arrived 30-40 minutes early.

Tonight, the Wizards' starters are Whitney, Jordan, Yu Fei, (Popeye) Jones, and White.

Christian Leitner suffered a fracture in his first two games and will need to be out for 1-2 months.

Although Yu Fei and Leitner have deep contradictions, Leitner is indeed the most comprehensive interior line in the team, and the impact of his injury will be all-round.

On the Pacers' side, the starters are the same as the last time they met, namely Jamal Tinsley, Jalen Rose, Reggie Miller, Jeff Foster, and Jermaine O'Neal.

I saw Thomas wearing a brown suit and calling Miller to his side, looking like a master tactician.

When Thomas had finished speaking, he licked his lips with his tongue playfully.

Then, as soon as the game started, O'Neal Jr. won the ball for the Pacers.

The Wizards' starters quickly returned to defense, but the Pacers made a flank cover for Miller on the spot, which was common in the small-ball era, and Miller went straight to the open space and the three-pointer went up and down.

3 to 0

"How can someone lose someone at the beginning?" Yu Fei asked knowingly, "Who guarded against that?" ”

Quiet, so quiet.

"My bad!" Popeye Jones has one of the most vicious faces in NBA history, "I didn't keep up." ”

Yu Fei ran across the half court, overlapping with Jordan's area, so he asked Chris Whitney for the ball, and then beckoned to Jordan, who was already in his position: "Come out and block the demolition!" ”

“FUCK！” Jordan was furious, "Pass! ”

"OK, then you'd better throw in!" Yu Fei hoisted the ball over.

Rose, who was opposite Yu Fei, was simply dumbfounded.

Are these two still teammates?

But if you think about it carefully, it's not so shocking, after all, Yu Fei and Jordan have broken openly.

It should be said that this is normal.

Jordan wanted to hit Miller with a back hit, although the rhythm of the two impacts seemed to be good, but the moment he turned over and shot, the weakness of his lower limbs was visible to the naked eye.

"Bang!"

Jasidy White grabbed an offensive rebound and wanted to go straight to the second offense, but was blocked by O'Neal Jr. in front of him.

Yu Feiyan was fast, ran to the free throw line and grabbed the out-of-control ball, and no one was guarding him, so he adjusted his rhythm and shot on the spot.

"Huh!"

2 to 3

In the eyes of others, Yu Fei offended Jordan fiercely.

Maybe Jordan himself thinks so.

But Yu Fei just wants Jordan to play a little easier, 1/3 of the regular season has passed, and Goute's shooting rate is less than 40%, doesn't this explain the problem?

If James is allowed to play like this every round after 20 years, it will be difficult for him to shoot more than 45%.

The Pacers' offense was very simple, pulling away, O'Neal Jr. asked for the ball in the low post, turned over and made a jumper after a top, and went in.

5 to 2

"Chris!"

Before Whitney crossed the half, Yu Fei had already got the ball in his hands.

Looking at Yu Fei's marching posture, Jordan slowed down, and he felt that Yu Fei would not pass the ball out.

His hunch was correct.

Yu Fei found that the walkers' retreat was disorganized, and he wanted to teach them a lesson.

Jalen Ross stood in front of Yu Fei, but his figure was closer to the No. 2 position than the No. 3 position, but Yu Fei's figure was close to the No. 4 position, and the difference in size between the two made this pair look unfair.

Rose opened his hands, and when Yu Fei dribbled the ball in front of him, he suddenly fixed his body and pressed his center of gravity down, and at that moment, Rose felt that he was facing Jordan.

Yu Fei's figure of hovering the ball in the air and adjusting his attitude is too similar to Jordan.

In just an instant, Yu Fei crossed to the left crotch and changed direction to dribble, starting forward, Rose's defense was completely pierced, and he lost his defensive position.

Yu Fei inserted himself into the free throw line with a single arrow step, collected the ball, jumped, and scored directly.

4 to 5

"Jay, what are you doing?!" Thomas yelled, "What kind of defense is this?" A change of direction will pass you?! ”

I have to say that Jalen Rose's defense just now is really sloppy, comparable to yellow chocolate acrobatics on the court, which is the second similarity between them, the first similarity is that they are both called Jalen.

"Uh-huh, it looks like someone has been scolded."

Yu Fei's witticism was like a gust of wind blowing through Rose's ears.

The conflict between Ross and Thomas is no secret like Yu Fei and Jordan's bad relationship.

"That damn rookie!" Rose stared at Yu Fei and decided to do something to save face.

(1) O'Neal slapped Kobe Bryant before 1999, I can't remember the specific time period, you just need to know that this happened. The autobiography of the Zen master, the autobiography of Kobe, and the book of the OK dynasty ("The Three-Ring Circus") corroborate each other.
