Chapter 366: How Did You Take Your Dream Seriously?
After Yu flew to the West, his matchup with James went from at least four games in a season during the Bucks period to at least two games a season.
If scarcity is expensive, then such a big competition gimmick will also be magnified by the reduction in the number of competitions.
James has never defeated Taifei in his career so far.
For Fei's 24-game losing streak was part of what he was carved into the pillar of shame by the opponent.
But the biggest problem is that Yu Fei has already given James too much shame.
A 24-game losing streak isn't even the most humiliating one.
Since scoring 49 points on his head in the first game of his career, Yu Fei has always used various ways to set records on him, so whenever the two meet again, the past failures will be mentioned repeatedly.
Now, with the break between the two, the outside world is more sensitive to these things.
Before the game began, the TNT team spent 20 minutes discussing why they were as strong as King James, who had not won a game in their careers.
ESPN commentator and former NBA head coach Doug Collins said before the game began: "LeBron may be the most talented basketball player on the planet, but Wilt Chamberlain taught us forty years ago that being the most talented doesn't mean you can win." Frye is the modern-day Bill Russell, and the problem is that this Russell is as well-rounded as Big O, and has killer genes like Jerry West, and at the same time, he also has a Michael Jordan-esque mentality. ”
ABC's Hubby Brown has just stepped down from coaching and is sensitive to Jan's comparisons.
"I admit that LeBron is improving every year, and his biggest improvement this year has been his three-point shooting percentage, which has gone from 32 percent to 36 percent (1), but that's not enough because Frye is shooting a whopping 42 percent from three-point range. This is probably where they have the smallest gap. ”
(1) It's about the same level as the 2011-12 season in reality.
The people around James watched him degrade step by step from a competitor who could be listed as a "double hero" with Yu Fei to the status of a far behind chaser.
Randy Meems was adamantly opposed to letting James and Yu Fei tie at the beginning, because no matter how well James performed, Yu Fei would benefit.
Since it's a double male, the younger one is so powerful, the one who is two years older must be better, right?
Now, Miems's wish has come true, and no one compares James to Yu Fei anymore.
Because in this case, comparing the two is a serious offense to Fei.
Since the SuperSonics entered the city, everything in the James camp has been related to Yu Fei.
Especially after Yu Fei made a violent statement outside the airport that "LeBron may leave Cleveland", the fans of Kecheng were like thunder as if they were poked in the heart.
They kept saying it couldn't be, Frye Yu fucking fart, but everyone knew it was possible.
If James really felt that he would play in Cleveland forever, he would not have signed a 2+1 contract.
Heavily stimulated fans could only hide their panic by attacking the SuperSonics, which indirectly led to discussions within the city about whether James would leave the team in the summer of 2009.
James ignored the restlessness of the outside world and focused on practice, ball after ball.
Ron Artest was deeply moved when he saw the emperor practicing so seriously, and couldn't help but say: "LeBron, don't worry, I will definitely restrain Frye tonight." ”
Although Artest claims to be a treasure, James does not dare to bet all on him.
"It's the job of the whole team." James showed a sense of responsibility that could not be ignored, and it was completely impossible to see that this was a man who escaped the Eastern Conference Finals for the sake of his own face. "I'm not going to leave you alone in front of him."
Artest thinks the world is still the world of 2005, and he still has the Pacers team that is best suited to limit flying.
Of course, maybe that's human nature.
Most people overestimate their own worth and influence, and Artest thinks that it is his own credit that the Walkers can be limited to flying, so he feels that he can put down the rebellion in place of the emperor.
James knows far more about the difficulty of flying than Artest.
Maybe Artest was a problem for Yu Fei when he was on the Pacers, but with the introduction of the ban and the disintegration of the Pacers, Artest, who was thrown out of India City by Larry Bird like garbage, is no longer the defender who gave Yu Fei a headache back then.
However, Artest insisted: "I'm enough for one person, you can take care of the others, and we are bound to win this game." ”
In the evening, the Quicken Loan Center Arena
What happened at the airport during the day made the SuperSonics the least popular team in Croatia.
When Yu Fei entered, the boos and scolding at the scene reached their peak.
"Why is there no love here?" Roy knowingly asked, "What did you do to them?" ”
Yu Fei said: "It's just a prophecy of something they don't want to admit." ”
"Do you really think LeBron is going to run?" Roy couldn't imagine James could abandon his hometown team for anything. "Where can he go?"
"New York, Miami, Los Angeles"
Yu Fei said lightly: "Anything is fine, as long as it is a big market, it can increase the probability of defeating me." ”
"Then it's better to go to Los Angeles to see it." Roy said in a weird way, "The combination of the league's least favorite passer and the league's favorite passer must be interesting." ”
Yu Fei knew why Roy wanted to hack Kobe.
Because in the ABCD training camp that year, Roy asked Kobe for an autograph to no avail.
Alas, sometimes he doesn't know why his fourteen-day-old Komi has a hardcore friend with at least six years of Kehei qualifications.
No matter how unwelcoming Yu Fei is by the fans, it will not affect the progress of this game.
Before the start of the game, according to the custom, the bosses of both sides should greet each other in the midfield.
James, who was playing at home, took Artest to the middle circle on his own initiative, and he wanted to shake hands with Yu Fei.
Unexpectedly, Yu Fei's attitude was arrogant, and he had no intention of returning the gift at all.
It was Roy who stretched out his hand, but his words were even more unbearable: "I'm sorry, LeBron Fry thinks you're not qualified to shake his hand, if you don't mind, I can shake your hand." ”
James wasn't in a hurry, Artest shouted first: "Da Fei, don't be too arrogant, this is Cleveland, not you Seattle!" ”
"You've only been in Cleveland for a few days, and you're in a hurry to be a dog." Yu Fei sneered, "Ron, I suggest you don't trust this person around you too much, once things change, he will be the first to abandon you." ”
"It's useless to talk that!" Artest confidently shook his fist at Yu Fei, "We'll see you on the field!" ”
James said, "Let's go." ”
"Alas, it's a pity that the hero who broke his bald ribs with an elbow turned out to be a dog next to LeBron." Yu Fei said to Roy, "I'm going to increase the frequency of singles tonight. ”
Roy became vigilant: "You want to be Kobe?" ”
"No, I'm a Kobe fan."
"No, I always thought you were pretending."
In these years, there are still people who question their identity as Komi?
Yu Fei is determined to prove himself to be a qualified fan who can inherit Kobe's mantle tonight.
After the warm-up, both sides made their debuts.
Tonight is the comeback of Rashad Lewis, and Lewis's return gives the SuperSonics once again a reliable anti-aircraft battery that can infinitely block and dismantle outside shots.
In the opening stanza, Kwame Brown surprisingly racketed Roy from in front of Big Z.
Roy took the ball to the scene and passed it to Yu Fei.
Without waiting for Artest to step forward and scramble, Yu Fei hoisted the ball to Brown.
Playing the inside line at the beginning is already the most fixed part of Yu Fei's formulaic game concept.
Brown doesn't have any physical advantage over Big Z, but can rely on speed and agility to win.
After Big Z was shaken up by Brown's feint, he let Brown eat a time error and put a basket to score.
"Da Fei, how is my footsteps?"
Brown asked aloud.
"Not bad!" Yu Fei replied sincerely, "It's just like Hakim Olajuwon." ”
The negative impact of the Las Vegas fiasco has been with James to this day, and he is ready to face the fly again.
In the NBA, Yu Fei couldn't ignore the ban on casual physical contact with his offense like he did in Las Vegas.
The restrictions of the rules have completely broken the balance of offense and defense in the NBA.
A person like James, as long as he is decisive enough, it is indeed difficult for people to prevent his breakthrough one-on-one.
James slammed forward at full speed and slammed into Yufei's defense, rushing to the basket to cause a foul on Brown.
Fortunately, James' free throws were stable and only hit one shot.
1 to 2
It's the turn of the supersonic offensive round.
As he flew past halftime, Karl asked if he wanted to make a substitution to defend James.
Because Yu Fei defended against James like this, and attacked Artest, the consumption was a bit big.
If there is someone like Laga Bale in the team, Yu Fei can consider letting his teammates consume James, but now, in addition to himself, among the remaining flanks of the supersonics, only James Posey is the best single defense on the field.
Therefore, Yu Fei felt that it was better to deal with James himself.
Moreover, he never said that he wanted to defend James alone, it really can't be done, and the combination of clips and joint defense are all feasible means.
"Looks like you can't stop LeBron either." Artest also seems to know that his reputation in the league is a mess, and he is eager to do something to make a difference. "As long as I stop you, you're going to lose!"
But if you follow the wrong person, things are irreparable.
High on the left flank to catch the ball, Artest continued to put on that cannibalistic defensive posture.
It's just that he still doesn't understand.
Yu Fei, who could be restricted by him, lived two years ago.
Just in front of Artest, Yu Fei changed sharply and pulled the ball backwards to take a retreat, suddenly threw the opponent out of a half-body position, and made a jump shot.
"Huh!"
1 to 4
"Defend me?" Yu Fei taunted Artest as he retreated, "How did you take what happened in your dream seriously?" ”
