The 8th was a weekend, and at 9 p.m., the key arena was already full of people.

In 2002, NBA regular season tickets were not as exaggerated as later generations, probably around $80 per cent, but under the gimmick of fateful war, the average price of the supersonic wave has been raised to about 130 yuan, but it is still hard to find.

At this time, the 16,000-person live seat was full, and even excluding some season and annual tickets and seats for journalists, more than 10,000 tickets were sold for this game alone.

In addition to the local fans, what really surprised the SuperSonics was that there were many people who came from other cities in Washington state to watch the game.

- Shhh

- Hi, what a familiar face! I feel like I'm seeing someone being tyrannized again!

- He is the softest man in the United States! Hahaha!

- Oriental magicians specialize in all kinds of disobedience! Supersonic wins!

The atmosphere was hot, and with the sound of the host's introduction, the audience's boos or cheers continued to echo over the stadium like wheat waves.

The Cavaliers have taken the lead in making their debut as the away team, and as LeBron, who has previously confronted Lin Dong on the Internet in the United States, there was naturally a boo and commotion when he appeared.

LeBron behaved as usual, whitewashed or not whitewashed, obviously there was no meaning in front of the home team's home team, just a little boos and ridicule, and he didn't rush him still mineral water bottles and rotten eggs, which is part of the NBA.

When the home team came out, the headlights on the scene suddenly went out, the spotlights and atmosphere lights swept all over the field, and the whole stadium quieted down, and the atmosphere seemed to have undergone an epic change in an instant.

"That's it! Next......" The host's subdued voice echoed throughout the audience: "Dear ladies and gentlemen! 6 ft 6 in, 211 lbs...... With the wildest screams and applause, let's welcome the magician of the East, the prince of supersonic from Seattle's Lakeside High School! Lin - East ——!!! ”

"Lin! Forest! Forest! ”

Countless young fans in the stands frantically shouted Lin Dong's name in broken Chinese.

Frankly speaking, the composition of supersonic fans today is a bit weird, usually when watching a team play, almost all the fans on the scene are their star fans, such as Kobe Bryant, Jordan, who is a fan of the Bulls, but in the SuperSonic, most of the older fans are Peyton's fans, and the younger group belongs to Lin Dong.

Looking at Lin Dong, who ran out of the players' tunnel with a smile and accepted the cheers of the audience, the corners of LeBron's mouth couldn't help but twitch after all.

Frankly, he felt that he was ready to face everything in his heart, whether it was calculating Paxson under great fear and pressure, or saving people under the dagger of the outlaw in that small alley, his heart did not stir at all.

Every step he took was deliberate and headed towards the direction and goal he had set, as if nothing along the way was no longer enough to shake his will.

But only when facing this man......

LeBron knows very well why he got the chance to start today,

After entering the Knights, he actually sensed that Paxson intended to hide in the snow, and Paxson obviously didn't want to keep him with such an uncontrolled time bomb by his side.

Typing it out with excellent data?

The minutes the manager has given him in the past have been inconsequential games, and even most of the time the score is too big and has gone into garbage time, what attention can you attract to perform at that time?

On the contrary, if this attracts Paxson's wariness and colludes with the head coach to start cutting your playing time, it will really be more than worth the loss.

So he has been holding back, a decent or even a little low performance, showing that he has never returned to the level he once had, and finally made Paxson let his guard down.

This time to arrange his own start, Paxson's mind is very clear in LeBron's eyes, that is, he feels that with his current level, facing Lin Dong, who is also in the No. 3 position, he will inevitably be blown up again, and this game is the attention of the whole United States, when the time comes, either Paxson can justifiably excuse his poor performance and imply that the team is completely hiding himself, or more extreme, he can even go to the Cavaliers owner to help himself' Say good things', so that the knight boss mistakenly thinks that he relied on his connections to get the starter, then I am afraid that there will be no future in the future.

The recording that can threaten Paxson is not a panacea, it can only be used within some rules, otherwise it will force Paxson to break the jar, and it will not benefit anyone.

Frankly speaking, I have endured it for so long, in order to make Paxson have such an idea, push himself to the starting position of an important game, and then explode in front of the whole United States to win what should belong to him, and then show a little favor to Paxson, see the benefits and value, and the matter is irreparable, then Paxson can only continue to hold himself, this is the best way.

But to be honest, there are 29 teams in the entire league except for the Cavaliers, even in the face of the Wizards with Jordan, LeBron has the courage and confidence to fight, but he is unwilling to bet on Lin Dong's opponent who is related to his future and fate.

Since this absolute trough, he has not been afraid of the gangsters on Walnut Street, he has not been afraid of Paxson, he has not been afraid of knives, and he originally thought that he would not be afraid today.

But when he saw Lin Dong's face again and heard the voice of Lin Dong cheering for Lin Dong at this time, those nightmarish experiences instantly resurfaced, so that LeBron still couldn't stop a deep fear that could not be suppressed from the depths of his heart.

His hands in his trouser pockets were clenched tightly, and before the game began, beads of sweat were already oozing from his forehead.

Linphobia...... Damn Paxson!

"Hi bro!" Wade's voice rang in LeBron's ear with a smile: "Relax." ”

"Hey......" LeBron responded to Wade with a smile, but the nervousness on his face still betrayed him.

"Don't worry." Wade lowered his voice slightly.

Ever since he met the little guy at the Nike Summit, he has always felt that the other party has a good character, although when he has since suffered countless infamy for his immoral pushing actions at the World Championships, Wade has always believed that it was just LeBron's impulse.

And LeBron's sacrifice to save people a few months ago undoubtedly confirmed his view, and it also made him admire LeBron more and more.

And today, LeBron finally got the opportunity to start for the first time, and Wade has already decided in his heart that he will try to ensure that this brother has a beautiful turnaround data no matter what.

"I'll defend Lin Dong, if he guards you, he will play with me more misalignment......" Wade reached out and patted LeBron on the back, and said steadily: "You're going to have a beautiful show!" ”

Honk!

The electronic sound of the scene started, and the players on both sides were in place!

The Cavaliers started with center No. 11 Zasunas Ilgoskas, power forward No. 1 Carlos Boozer, small forward No. 0 LeBron James, scoring guard No. 31 Ricky Davis, and point guard No. 23 Dwyane Wade.

SuperSonics starters, center No. 7 Tyson Chandler, power forward No. 24 Desmond Mason, small forward No. 23 Linton, scoring guard No. 31 Brent Barry, point guard No. 20 Gary Payton.

The five positions are facing each other, but the camera on the big screen does not show Chandler and Zashinas, who have begun to prepare to jump the ball, but at the pair that has been hotly discussed by the public before.

It's a pity that there was no collision that the public and the media were expecting.

LeBron and Lin Dong just stood together quite calmly, looking in the direction of the jump ball ahead, obviously focusing more on the game itself than on the media attention.

The chaotic noise of the stadium has become much smaller at this time, and everyone is staring at the basketball in the hand of the referee who walked to the halfcourt, and the big battle is about to start.

Zasinas, a small European giant from Lithuania, has a height of 221 cm and an arm span of 230 cm.

Although the Cavaliers only averaged 11.1 points and 5.4 rebounds per game last season, it was mainly because the Cavaliers were rotten, this season since Wade joined, Zashinas with excellent physical talent, eat cake under the basket and eat soft, in the Cavaliers' current seventeen-game winning streak, Zashinas has averaged 19.5 points per game, ranking third on the team's scoring list, and has an average of 8.8 rebounds per game.

Compared with Chandler, the data is more than a star and a half, but strength is obviously not just looking at the data.

With a difference of only 5 centimeters, Tyson Chandler and Zacinas don't look in shape when they stand together, but are stronger, and their 234 cm reach is even higher than Zashinas.

Honk!

As the referee's whistle blew, the basketball was thrown high into the air.

With a similar height and reach, similar reflexes and bounces, two centers with strange talents jumped at the same time.

Syllable!

The two slapped their hands on the basketball almost at the same time.

Chandler was more powerful, Zacinas was more experienced, two big hands on the basketball only a slight wrestling, Zacinas was the first to find the direction of relief, a slight twist of the wrist, the basketball in the direction of Ricky Davis.

At this time, the supersonic is Lin Dong to defend LeBron, Payton to defend Wade, and Brent Barry to defend Ricky Davis, compared to the Cavaliers star who averaged 20+ per game last year, Brent Barry, who is 32 years old, is obviously half a beat slower in speed.

Ricky Davis caught the basketball steadily, and Brent Barry had an obvious action to pull the ball, but Ricky Davis obviously did not give him this opportunity, and while receiving the ball, he turned his back with both hands on his hand, not only dodged Brent's hand, but also took advantage of the opponent's slightly reckless defensive move, and threw it behind him in just one step.

It's over!

Such a beautiful scene was staged as soon as he came on the court, and Davis's pupils flashed with excitement.

The supersonic style of running and bombing, the knights have studied it thoroughly in the past few days, and the weak defense is a consistent loophole in the running and bombing tactics, and in order to pursue the ultimate offensive speed, this supersonic team often chooses some gambling reckless ball breaking actions when defending.

It's a loss that I've been prepared for it, and this ball is ...... Sigh!

Before the excited thoughts were finished in Davis's mind, he felt the wind ringing in his ears, and a figure quickly caught up.

It's Brent! And with that, he had a large hand that came out again from behind the left side.

Although the steal just now was reckless, the defensive attitude was quite positive and the chase was fast.

Davis sneered, dribbled under his crotch without slowing down, pulled the ball to the right and was ready to close the ball.

Can be ...... in the next second

Syllable!

There was a soft sound, and Davis's hand that was about to close the ball suddenly emptied.

The ball was broken?!

I obviously avoided Brent, and I obviously ......

No! Not Brent!

Davis subconsciously turned his head in surprise, only to see a back that had turned away after the interception.

The dark green jersey has a prominent number on the back.

Number 23!
