"KD, what did you just do to the referee?"

George Carr stared at Durant as if trying to read his heart from the face that didn't seem to have any scheming.

But, as always, Durant showed humility: "Coach, what bothers me is that I really didn't do anything to him. ”

Coach, what a pleasant title.

Carl hadn't heard this word from Yu Fei's mouth for a long time.

But for him, he prefers Yu Fei to call himself "George", because that means that their relationship has gone beyond the ordinary coach-player colleague relationship.

"I saw you dancing on the field, what are you doing that?" Carl asked.

Durant replied: "I was fouled, but the referee didn't seem to see it. ”

"Kevin, I wonder if there's such a possibility." "The referee deliberately doesn't give you a whistle to give you a deeper understanding of their authority, and the more restrained you are, the more brazen they become," Carr said. You must know that the referee is Bichi, and if you give him a good face, he will forget his identity. ”

Durant replied sincerely: "Coach, you may be right, but I won't use that word, that's not right." ”

"Not necessarily, Kevin." For a moment, the image of Durant overlapped with Dr. J in Carl's mind.

The image of a good guy is not exclusive to Durant, and looking back at the history of the NBA, there are not a few superstars who have this image, and Dr. J is one of them. However, Dr. J is too respectable to be decisive at critical moments, and until the arrival of Moses Malone, he was like a magician and Bird's experience baby, a stepping stone to their early legends.

But even such Dr. J was once stimulated by Bird to lose his mind and fist at that damn poisonous tongue big white bird.

Can Durant keep that image?

If he's really good, is he going to lose his dominance of the game because he's too nice?

Reliable superstars have killer instincts when it matters most, but how can you, a good person, be associated with such a word?

Carl wondered how Durant would develop his character, and was this kid from the suburbs of Washington really a humble angel? Will he become another bridge for the NBA to connect fans after Yu Fei? How long will his routine habit of kissing his mother before and after the game last? Also, when will he put the Bible in his bag down?

At least for now, Durant's image is impeccable.

On the court, Yu Fei began to face a similar encounter with Durant.

On the road, his star power suddenly failed.

The Magic often fouled him, but the referees blew their whistles rarely.

However, Yu Fei did not open his mouth to greet the referee like Posey.

When dealing with a referee like Joey Crawford, who is sensitive and fragile and as unreasonable as a mad dog, Yu Fei usually makes a brief complaint.

Then, dealing with those weak deputy referees and No. 3 referees, Yu Fei will actively exert pressure.

"Do your job, I got fouled and you didn't see it?"

Yu Fei was indeed fouled, but the referee didn't blow it.

This kind of pressure made the referee quickly blow a card foul on the Magic that can be blown or not, which can be regarded as compensation for Yu Fei.

This type of make-up decision is common in all major leagues, but only a few clever communicators can get a consistent balance whistle.

Yu Fei doesn't advocate personal attacks on the referee like Posey, because it really makes people anxious, and the referee can stare at you all night and blow it.

For most of the first quarter, Yu Fei's control of the referee made the Magic obviously have a home-court advantage but never be able to play the rhythm they wanted.

When Yu Fei went off, the SuperSonics led the Magic by one point at 21-20.

The Magic look like a team that is moving with the times, and they've embraced the Bucks' small-ball philosophy across the board, putting together a bunch of shooters around Howard.

Nelson, Carter, and Bale formed a good offensive and defensive intensity, and then promoted Turkoglu to the No. 4 position.

In terms of book strength, they are at the top of the ranks in the East.

However, Yu Fei believes that they can't compete with the Celtics and Bucks, but they are definitely stronger than the Cavaliers.

The supersonic bench team has made a force in the transition section.

Mainly Childries and Channing Frye.

The former likes to attack the basket, the latter is good at shooting, and with a white interior like Nick Collison who can do anything but is not good at anything, he plays well.

Childis, in particular, has a very novel approach, as a fourth-grader, he has been a flank for the superSonics for the past three years, but his performances and stats have been tepid. Then, as soon as Durant comes, the team's resources will naturally be tilted towards the more talented and younger little fresh meat.

Losing a starting XI is undoubtedly a major blow for a player in a contract year, but Childis has never been unhappy, and he says self-righteously: "The coaching staff put me on the bench because they wanted me to use my smart brain to figure out the team's problems. ”

If someone questioned his IQ, Childis would ask rhetorically, "Can I go to Stanford?" ”

When playing on the court, Childis is also a peculiar thinker, always playing cards out of common sense, if he plays against the most accurate shooter on the opposite side, he will take the initiative to empty the opponent and then wrap up his teammates.

Because the most dangerous things are the safest. This kind of stadium relativity makes people dizzy. And that's not all, if he lets go of people who score in a row, then he has something to say.

Now, for example, Childis is facing Jason Capono as a replacement for Rashad Lewis that the Magic found in free agency this summer. This is a player who has no other use in the NBA than shooting, but it is precisely by shooting with one hand that he got a mid-level contract.

Last season, Capono shot 51 percent from three-point range.

Childis, however, did not hesitate to let him go.

As a result, the Magic's ball quickly passed to Capono's hand, and he also easily hit an open three-pointer.

Karl can't see this kind of low-level defensive mistakes, is it a human thing to let go of a shooter with a 51% shooting rate?

"What the are you doing, Josh?"

Childis replied, "Coach, I'm playing to my strengths!" ”

"What are your strengths?"

"Defense, Coach!"

"Don't help anymore!" Carl growled, "Keep an eye on that guy for me!" ”

As a top student at Stanford, Childis also has the advantage of being obedient.

Carl only felt that his breath was holding in his body, and it was difficult to vent.

"Do you think he has a brain problem?" Carl has been in the league for many years, and he has never seen someone who has behaved off the court so seriously.

Yu Fei smiled and said nothing, Carl had never seen this kind of person, because he didn't play games.

If he plays some online games, he knows that the Internet is full of such people.

Commonly known as the King of Pips.

It's just that most of the idea kings are just a lot of ghost ideas and have no ability to act, but Childis is a person who has a lot of ideas and dares to take action, which tests the endurance of the coaching staff.

Five minutes into the second quarter, Yu Fei and Roy returned to the court.

The Magic will increase the defensive targeting of the flying to the highest level.

Bell defends alone, Carter packs at any time, and Howard assists in defense.

This defensive arrangement allows Yu Fei to face at least two defenders no matter where he is.

If Yu Fei is still a big core, this kind of defensive intensity is still effective, at least it can block his personal offensive.

But now, Yu Fei is completing what Carr called a "Larry Bird-style" transformation, from a big nuclear controller to an all-round core forward with half of the ball and half of the ball.

The advantage of this is that Yu Fei can finally put his spare energy into the defensive end.

This has made Yu Fei's defensive threat much more this season, averaging nearly 4 steals and blocks per game.

Although the Magic's defensive routine is useful, it is an excessive abuse of defensive resources for Yu Fei, who greatly increases the proportion of the off-ball.

Roy took advantage of the situation to blow up Nelson, cutting down 18 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the half.

"I don't understand." Roy said, "What are you trying to do with so many people to contain you?" ”

Yu Fei said smugly: "This is the attraction of the MVP of the four-time finals. ”

"That's right." Roy joked, "Everybody knows you're the 'Most Attractive Ever ever' (1). ”

(1) Memories of Killing: In the 2004 All-Star Game, Da Fei robbed the fat man AMVP and called himself "MAE".

The Magic soon realized that this didn't work, and switched to adding a bag to Roy.

Supersonic is a dual-core drive, Roy is the core of the ball, Yu Fei is a big core that can play the core ability of the ball without the ball, once Roy is targeted, the supersonic ball will turn to Yu Fei.

Then, the familiar Buck Fly will appear in the supersonic array.

In the second half, Yu Fei continued to eat Carter and Bell's defense, which made Howard frequently come to the paint area to assist in defense, so Kwame Brown cheered for the arrival of good days, and continued to eat cakes under the basket, scoring 10 points in a single quarter, and actually overwhelmed Howard.

Magic is out of balance inside and outside, supersonic inside and outside should be combined, and the collapse is a matter of moments.

Carter missed a three-point shot, and Yu Fei grabbed a long rebound and hit a three-point shot; Howard hit the back to attract the bag and then passed to his teammates, the three points still missed, Yu Fei grabbed a long rebound again, and played the dribble to shake Carter, even Orlandos exclaimed at this scene, because Yu Fei threw out a ground-to-ground lane change pass with a high degree of spin after shaking Carter to Kevin Durant, who followed up.

The humble angel, the top pick in the Class of 2007, had a rough night in Orlando, but his team didn't give up on him.

Durant caught this wonderful pass that may be selected as the best of the season, outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the left, at that moment, the Durant wearing the Warriors jersey in the depths of Yu Fei's memory was possessed, he jumped up and shot three points, the flight arc of the ball was unshakable, this is not a shot that humans can interfere with.

"Huh!"

"Without a doubt, this is the best shot of the season so far!"

The commentator whistled, and the supersonic show turned the away stadium into a home stadium.

Durant turned around and exhaled with relief, just as he had shaken off the dirt of that season when he slashed the Cavaliers for the second time in that familiar position in the 2018 Finals, and didn't know that the Green formula was waiting for him not far away. He just wanted to take the pressure off his own.

At this moment, Durant can't sense such a long-term thing, he just doesn't want to waste a dazzling performance on Fei's talent.

The Magic were already trailing by 16 points, and they asked for a timeout.

Durant found that Yu Fei was looking at himself, and he subconsciously said, "Fry, your performance just now is too good. ”

"I still like the look on your face." Yu Fei's words made Durant creepy. "Like a psychopathic murderer who kills his target again, I like you like that."
