Chapter 211: There is only one person on the peak
James walked from the media interview room to the corridor behind the scenes, looking preoccupied.
As James' full-time personal assistant, Randy Mims, along with Maverick Carter and Rich Paul, along with the boss of all of them, refers to himself as the "Four Horsemen."
They are true close friends and have absolute loyalty and trust in each other.
Today, Maverick is working for Nike at James' behest, and Rich is learning about agents and will take over the representation from James' agent, Aaron Goodwin, when the time comes.
Seeing that James was frowning by Yu Fei, Miems said angrily: "Frye just uses you as his tool at all, even if he doesn't fight like this, the Bucks will win!" He's so ruthless because his new boots are out on sale, and this game is the best chance to get the word out, and, I'm sure he's enjoying the situation, Bronn, he."
"Alright." James didn't want to come to his most trusted friend and face a constant stream of "Frye problems": "If he doesn't play like that, I'll be upset because it proves that he doesn't care about me at all." ”
"It's best now." James seems to have come to his senses and is no longer bothered by Yu Fei's complete overwhelm in the game, "He treats me as an opponent, which is respect for me." That's what a true friend should do. ”
Will a true friend keep you in his highlights forever like a monkey in front of the audience? Miemus wasn't sure.
He has always felt that LeBron's relationship with Frye is as fragile as paper.
Because the goal of both of them is to reach the top, since Jordan has retired, Yu Fei's way of humiliating the other party is to become the best player in history. And James has been saddled with the best expectations of all time since he entered the league.
Mims wondered if the "big brother and little brother" show could be played out again when they met on their way to the top?
In fact, it was almost impossible to play tonight.
The round when Fry played LeBron like a monkey, Miems was impressed, and he won't forget LeBron's expression at that time. That look of anger, dissatisfaction, feeling betrayed, Meems had seen on LeBron's face when he was in high school.
That's when LeBron's high school coach decided to ditch them for the sake of his future.
Miems believes that LeBron saw Frye's true colors in that moment, that he wasn't the pure warm-hearted big brother, at least on the court, he wasn't warm at all.
On their way back to the locker room, they met Yu Fei and them.
Yu Fei was followed by Tim Grover and Anthony Lawson, and when he saw James, he was surprised, "LeBron, those reporters are not difficult for you, right?" ”
Yu Fei's face caused James to have an instant auditory hallucination, as if he heard those "Frye. The question of what the game means to you strikes again.
"The same old way." James smiled wryly, "You know their virtues. ”
Yu Fei joked: "Apologize to your mother for me, she asked me to be nice to you, I broke my promise tonight." ”
I don't know if it's intentional or not, Yu Fei is reminding James who is the winner tonight.
James forced a smile, "Don't worry, she's fine." ”
"Next time I'm in Milwaukee, I'll treat you to dinner." Yu Fei said, "Absolutely punctual pork chop rice." ”
James said, "Fry, I don't eat red meat anymore. ”
"Oh, is it? It's a pity, but let's talk about it then. Yu Fei said, "Goodbye, tonight's game is really enjoyable." ”
Yes, the pleasure of being alone with him.
"Gone."
After Yu Fei flew away, Mims said angrily: "Bron, that guy is clearly showing off!" ”
"Forget it, this is Fry." James didn't know if he was comforting himself or convincing Mims, "Didn't you see him do this to Darius?" In contrast"
In contrast, he was beaten in a more brutal way, but Fry did not speak as badly as the other party, Darius, which shows that he cherished the friendship and did not want to embarrass James. But as a result, James was even more embarrassed.
He blew himself up in front of a national audience, clarified the gap between each other, and reaffirmed that he was the big brother, so this match was like a family farce for him to see an older brother bullying his younger brother. But does this mean that the younger brother will never be as good as the older brother?
Is this a good thing?
Yu Fei suddenly felt thirsty, so he went to the vending machine and bought a bottle of soda.
"You look a lot like Michael tonight." Grover said.
Yu Fei asked rhetorically: "Tim, do you know what the worst joke is?" ”
Grover asked, "What is it?" ”
"Someone said to a sick dog that it looked like a baby with cancer." Yu Fei said lightly, "I will never grow up." ”
Grover's scalp tingled when he heard this.
"But the joke you just told is not funny than that." Yu Fei said, "I remember I said, don't compare me to a rapist, and now I add, don't compare me to everyone on the planet named Michael Jordan." ”
Grover wants to know if Yu Fei hates Jordan more now or O'Neal.
However, this kind of question does not seem to make sense.
For Fei, this is a typical two-piece multiple-choice question.
"When Michael was in Chicago, he broke a lot of friends." "Charles Barkley was his friend, and Patrick Ewing was his friend. He even gave Barkley a grand gift during the 1993 Finals, which he never admitted, but I believe, it undermined the morale of his friends when they faced him during the game. ”
What Grover is really interested in is: "Are you playing the same trick on LeBron?" ”
Yu Fei couldn't have imagined that his kindness would be misinterpreted to this point.
Is there really no room for good people in this world?
What's wrong with the NBA? The eldest brother takes care of the younger brother off the field, and the younger brother is spurred on the field to be interpreted so maliciously?
"Nope."
Yu Fei didn't want to talk nonsense and categorically denied Grover's speculation.
Just kidding, not to mention that he doesn't have this mind, even if he does, is James someone who doesn't know how to play when he gets a little care?
James' mind is far more mature than his age, and he can definitely be on par with his physique.
At the beginning of this year, when James had not yet entered the NBA and was about to sign with Nike, he attended Nike's party and gave the president of Nike a watch.
The watch was not expensive, but it was produced in 1972 – the year that Nike was founded.
It's a very thoughtful gift, and you can imagine how much the people at Nike love him.
"So, you just want to play a good game?"
"Of course, what else?" Yu Fei snorted and said, "But Reebok's side is very dissatisfied with Nike's use of this game to build momentum for LeBron." ”
Grover's eyes changed and he smiled: "Then they should want you to beat LeBron, right?" ”
"That's what happened, but I didn't blow up LeBron because of that." Yu Fei said confidently, "If you don't beat your younger brother to death, why should you be a big brother?" ”
Grover nodded, but said in his heart, what he said was true, but you also beat it too hard, right?
The next day, Yu Fei dominated most of the sports headlines in the United States.
His stats, his remarks, and his monkey shake against James have all become hot topics of media discussion.
Reebok didn't want to let go of this wave of popularity, and arranged an interview for Yu Fei on the same day, hosted by ESPN's Jim Gray.
This is the most influential talk show in the NBA right now.
On the show, Gray asked: "There are a lot of people who say that your kindness to LeBron is hypocritical, and your purpose is to confuse him, what do you think of such remarks?" ”
"I feel sorry for them." Yu Fei said, "This shows that they don't even have a friend who treats them sincerely in their lives." ”
After watching the show, Bill Simmons, who is also a writer signed by ESPN, sarcastically said in a column: "I'd rather die alone than have a friend who makes me look good in front of my parents back home." ”
Yu Fei couldn't waste his time on the aftershocks of these games.
The season continues.
If you want to say who has the easiest schedule at the beginning of the season, I'm afraid no one can say, but if you want to say who has the weakest opponent, it must be the Bucks.
In terms of strength, before the Christmas game in December, the only strong teams that the Bucks encountered were the Pistons, Lakers, and 76ers, and all of them, except for the 76ers, only played one game.
The 76ers played two games.
However, the 76ers are the kind of playoff-level powerhouse that is difficult to shake the Bucks.
This is also thanks to the small fishpond in the East, with Kidd traveling west to the Spurs, the Nets have turned from prosperity to decline, and the only teams in the entire East that can challenge the Bucks are the Pistons and Pacers.
However, the Bucks' opponents are weak, and the schedule is very tight, and their back-to-back is among the highest in the league, which also greatly affects their preparation.
In late November and early December, the Bucks suffered a wave of injuries.
First, Ray Allen sprained his knee and needed to be out for 4-6 weeks, followed by Anthony Mason's thigh strain, which also required half a month of recovery period, and then veteran Sprewell suffered minor injuries from time to time.
The sudden inclusion of three absolute workhorses on the injury list has put a higher demand on the depth of the Bucks' roster.
Yu Fei's thoughts on this are that he is not right, and the opportunity to hone his offensive skills through actual combat has come.
What questioned Kobe Bryant's understanding of Kobe, he went directly to the third step - to become Kobe!
From the beginning of December to before the Christmas game, Yu Fei averaged 29 goals per game, averaging 36 points, 9 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block per game.
Before the Christmas game, the Bucks were in first place in the East with a 22-7 record and third in the league, behind the Spurs and Kings in the West.
Then, they host their Christmas rivals at home, the Detroit Pistons, who beat the Bucks earlier in the season.
However, that can't actually be counted, because at that time, Yu Fei and O'Neal were banned for fighting, and the strength of the Bucks was greatly damaged.
This encounter attracted the attention of all parties.
This is not only the strongest offensive team in the East against the strongest defensive team in the East (in the league), but also a series of off-court grudges.
As Yu Fei said on the radio show before the Christmas War: "Coach Brown and I have some personal issues that need to be addressed. ”
