The first meeting between the Bucks and Cavaliers this season was on Nov. 10.

The bucks traveled to Cleveland as guests.

In terms of the records of the two sides, the Bucks have won two straight games after Yu Fei's comeback and are currently 5-2, while the Cavaliers suffered a five-game losing streak at the beginning of the season before winning the first game of the season against Yu Fei's old club, the Washington Wizards.

In terms of record, the Bucks are currently third in the East, while the Cavaliers are at the bottom of the East.

The game wasn't the focus.

But "the first duel between the chosen son and the king" is a big gimmick.

After Kobe's reputation was discredited, the NBA urgently needed to salvage its reputation, so the two promising superstars, Yu Fei and Maddie, have gained more hype and greater exposure.

And James, a rising star, is also the focus of the league.

Professional basketball needs stars, and everyone is sure that James is that destined future star.

As a result, the match was hyped up a few days before the start of the tournament.

When Yu Fei landed in Cleveland with the team, there were a large number of reporters outside the airport.

They kept asking questions about James.

As James's eldest brother, Yu Fei showed rare patience and knew almost everything.

The most interesting question was: "How did you and LeBron develop such a close friendship?" ”

Yu Fei laughed, because he didn't know the answer either.

"It's impossible to describe it in words." Yu Fei said, "You know, friendship, like love, is the simplest and most profound thing in the world. ”

In the evening, when Yu Fei was having dinner in the hotel, he received a text message from James.

"Fry, the reporter asked me a hundred questions about you today, and they're crazy!"

Yu Fei replied: "You know, LeBron, even if you say good things about me to reporters, I will not show mercy to your subordinates." ”

James replied almost instantly: "I will show you the strength of King James!" ”

Gunder Gymnasium

At seven o'clock in the evening, Yu Fei came to the stadium to warm up, and there was still half an hour before the start of the game, and the major TV stations had already arranged on the spot.

After more than ten minutes, a large number of spectators entered.

About 1/5 of the people wear James' jersey.

It's not an exaggeration to say that Cleveland is James City.

Not only did he boost home attendance, but he also boosted the Cavaliers' game ratings by nearly 500 percent, especially in the previous opener against the Kings, which was second only to the first game between the Bucks and the Wizards last season.

Subsequently, Nike advertisements were played on the large square screens at the scene.

Having to do with James, of course.

Nike named the ad "Stress".

Then, the ad begins: James gets the ball for the first time in his NBA debut. Defended by the Kings' Mike Bibby, James paused to examine the court.

"Can he handle it?" One narrator said to another that James froze and the camera focused on his face. For the next 52 seconds, James stood motionless, and the arena fell silent.

"You say you can't handle the pressure," one of the commentators whispered.

"You're such a joke!" A fan shouted from the stands.

"Come on, lad," Hall of Famer George "The Iceman" Gervin said to himself as he sat on the sidelines.

Finally, James smiled. The screen gradually darkens, and Nike's Gohachi trademark appears on the screen.

After reading it, even Yu Fei shook his head, he could only say that Nike deserved to be Nike, and even the advertisements were better than other sneaker companies.

However, when you think about it, this is not an advertisement, but a question that Nike sent to James on behalf of the masses.

Can he handle this kind of pressure?—— despite the likes of Moses Malone, Kevin Garnett, Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady and Yu Fei, the NBA still expects more from James than any rookie in league history.

This past summer, James' jersey was the NBA's best-selling item. In the NBA store, only the Los Angeles Lakers merchandise sells better than the Cavaliers' merchandise. In terms of televising, the Cavaliers, a previously unattended team that has almost certainly missed the playoffs this season, have received 13 national live exposures.

Charles Barkley spoke out on TNT's show against the league hyping James so much: "I think it's a disservice for the NBA to start promoting him so early and having him appear on TV all the time. I think there's a good chance he'll be a superstar in three or four years. But now, he still has a long way to go. ”

After learning about the hype, expectations and pressure faced by James, Yu Fei gave a "that's it" evaluation to all the players who were "hyped comparable to James" in later generations.

In terms of public opinion, media, fan expectations and the league's popularity, James is the first in history.

Therefore, when Yu Fei met James in the midfield, he was ready to give his little brother a real educational lesson.

As the eldest brother, it is his obligation to spur the younger brother and make the younger brother better.

Otherwise, what qualifications does he have to say that he is James's big brother?

"Fry, I promise my first shot of the night will be a dunk."

James seems to be provocative, but it actually exposes the weak nature of the Bucks' interior line.

"Then come on."

Yu Fei snorted lightly and took the initiative to apply for a confrontation with James.

The game has not yet begun, but this scene has already attracted the excitement of the audience.

James's mother, Gloria, couldn't help but shout at Yu Fei.

Yu Fei looked over and wanted to know what his aunt had to say.

"Fry, be nice to my son." Gloria's smile was extremely bright, and her eyes were even a little seductive.

Yu Fei felt a chill in his heart, it was none other than the rumor of Dronti West

He shook his head vigorously, no longer thinking about things that weren't relevant to the game.

The Cavaliers won the jump ball, and James looked very excited, and after trying to break through Yu Fei failed, he jumped up childishly and gave Ricky Davis a bad pass.

If Yu Fei was Davis, he would definitely criticize Xiao Zhan, how could he pass the ball like this?

But the most important thing for Davis is to make sure he's still the boss of the Cavaliers.

James' passing represents obedience, and if the first goal of the opening game is not played inside, then the boss is played, which is the unspoken rule of most teams.

Davis hit a 3-pointer from a 45-degree angle on the right side to score the first point for the Cavaliers.

"Come, Fry, come!"

James clapped his hands, looking forward to Yu Fei's attack.

Yu Fei was not polite to him, after the face, he pressed down the center of gravity, walked on the left side after crossing the ball under the crotch, and made a quick stop and retreat jumper.

3 to 2

"LeBron, you didn't mean to let me score, did you?" Yu Fei teased, "Don't be like this, you will develop bad habits." ”

James was a little embarrassed, he was obviously very serious about defense, but he was not Yu Fei's enemy, and he was even considered to have released the water.

Frye is Frye.

James adjusted the position of the hair belt and then came to the front court with more seriousness.

However, James was too tender in all aspects, and Yu Feifang didn't use his brain at all.

Get started, observe his center of gravity, and guess one by one.

James gradually forgot the rhetoric of scoring the first point with a dunk, because he did not yet have the ability to tear apart Yu Fei's defense one-on-one, and he dribbled alone on the outside for a long time, waiting for his teammates to come to the high post to clear the siege.

Unable to do anything, James passed the ball.

Darius Myers misses mid-range shot.

Cavaliers coach Paul Silas grim face.

Before the start of the season, he thought Myers could be the team's point guard, Davis was the No. 2 and James was the No. 3.

But a five-game losing streak at the start of the season bankrupted his mind, and he had to put James in the No. 1 spot, as most would like.

Myers looks like a bust doomed to bankruptcy, and Davis and James don't have any chemistry to speak of.

As much as he hates to admit it, the Cavaliers' hopes are all on James.

For a young man under the age of 19, this is an excessively large burden.

However, just consider that Yu Fei on the other side led the broken Wizards to the playoffs a year and a half ago, and the expectations that James was bearing become reasonable.

As the most hyped rookie of all time, he deserves to be as good as Yu Fei.

James has been suppressed by Yu Fei since the opening.

He wanted to change the situation, so he showed the unfamiliar side of his teammates.

James before came across as precocious and steady, and he wouldn't be as eager to show the world what he's capable of like a normal rookie.

He always dribbles to the high post and then deals cards to Myers, makes the ball for Davis, and drops the ball inside.

Usually only when he rotates to attack, he shows a fiery desire to attack.

The advantage of this is that it masks the offensive instability caused by the current rough technology, and the second is to ensure a certain efficiency.

But now, James has become unreasonable, and he wants to use his 245-pound (111KG) body to force himself to fly.

In all fairness, James weighs even more than Yu Fei, who has been playing for two seasons.

A player of his age can have such a strong physique, which is indeed a talent.

However, James has not strengthened his skills, while Yu Fei has two years of professional game experience, coupled with hard training in the gym on weekdays, his core strength is at the top level in the NBA, and it is difficult for James to continue to break through only to the free throw line.

As a last resort, James opted for a pull-up jump shot.

Yu Fei, who was not out of position at all, reacted instantly and sent a cap in person.

"Innocent!"

Yu Fei catches up with the ball.

James followed closely, chasing hats was his forte, but Yu Fei suddenly slowed down in the front court, leaned back, pushed him away, and then used his strength to jump and dunk.

After four minutes, 5-11, the Bucks had a clear advantage.

The most important thing is that Yu Fei dominates James in the counterpoint, and this offense and defense are the most intuitive.

A few days ago, after Yu Fei cut 36 points on Anthony's head, he gave the other party a comment: "You are so bad, don't you usually train?" ”

As James's eldest brother, Yu Fei naturally wouldn't speak ill of him, he said with a little kindness: "Your skills are too rough, you still have to practice." ”

There is good news and bad news for James.

The good news is that his eldest brother is kind to him, and although he also talks trash talk, it is not unacceptable.

The bad news is that he is a little worse now, although it is not incomprehensible, but the outside world's expectations of him are too high, although it is not exaggerated to the extent that he wants him to be comparable to his brother as soon as he comes up, but if he is beaten to the point where he has no power to fight back, King James is very faceless.

James wanted to try again.

Then, Ricky Davis, James's big brother on the team, walked over angrily, "Bron, what are you doing?" You're going to pass the ball! You said you were going to help me turn Cleveland's bad luck around, what were you doing just now?! ”
