Seattle is one of the port cities on the Pacific coast of the United States and is considered to have the highest quality of life in the country. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It has many nicknames, such as "Emerald City", "Evergreen City", "Emerald City", "Queen City" and many others, and the temperate maritime climate combined with the leeward slopes of the Olympic Mountains has created such a mild and humid city. Companies like Boeing, Amazon, and even Starbucks have their headquarters in the city.

The Seattle SuperSonics, a tough team that follows the style of the Western Gold Rush, once created a strong team like "Rain Man" Kemp + "Glove" Payton that was rampant in the 90s, and even in that star-studded era, they reached the Finals strongly, although they lost to the Bulls led by Jordan, they still left a deep impression on people.

In the middle of the 02-03 season, the SuperSonics traded away Gary Payton, the team's long-time leader, in exchange for Ray Allen, an All-Star of the 96 golden generation and one of the greatest shooters of all time.

And with the 27-year-old at the heart of the team's rebuild, this year marks Ray Allen's third season with the SuperSonics.

Today's supersonics, with Ray Allen and Rashad Lewis forming a firepower duo, have become the league's favorite team to shoot three-pointers.

Unlike the Warriors, the supersonic three-point shooting is mostly very sure, and the new season simply moved Lewis to the small forward position, supplemented by rebounders like Jerome James and Reggie Evans, the supersonics' combat effectiveness on the bright side is not weak, and it can even be said to be very strong.

As long as they go crazy, they will be open to everyone.

The flight of Yang Di and others skimmed over Seattle and arrived in the Emerald City the night before the game.

As soon as a tall and mighty athlete arrives at the airport, even if there are not many passengers at night, they still attract the attention of many passers-by.

The official team bus of the Trail Blazers was waiting at the exit of the airport, and Yang Di was carrying a backpack and was about to get on the bus when he suddenly heard someone shouting his name.

"Hey, Dick Young!"

Smith, in a suit and leather shoes, looked at him in surprise as he dragged a huge suitcase.

"Smith!" Yang Di subconsciously touched his head, which had become short, stepped forward, and gave the other party a heavy hug. An old friend from Chicago, after taking off his jersey, he really didn't recognize it for a while.

Smith laughed, shook hands and patted him on the shoulder, "I didn't expect to see you here, it's too coincidental!" Are you ready to compete? ”

"yes, there's a game between our Warriors and Trail Blazers tomorrow night." Yang Di shrugged his shoulders.

The bald-headed Smith spoke quickly, with a look of pity on his face, "It's a pity, I have to leave Seattle tonight, I knew there was your game tomorrow, so I left two days late to watch your live game." I really didn't expect you to be able to go so far, it's amazing, it's incredible! ”

"Yes, I also find it amazing and incredible."

"By the way, how's the Wind Birds?" Yang Di still remembers the small team in Chicago's Division II, which was his first step into the semi-professional world.

"Again, in the spring, Division II will start again, but without you, we won't be able to dominate the streets of Chicago again." Smith laughed.

"Haha." Yang Di also smiled.

Smith smiled, "I'll go back to Chicago when I have time, Finney misses you too." ”

"Uh-huh, I'll come over next time in Chicago." Yang Di nodded, then waved his hand to Smith, and turned around and walked into the bus.

On the bus, Richardson asked curiously, "Is this your friend?" He also looks strong, too. ”

"That's right," Yang Di sat down, "it was the captain of that minor league when I was in Chicago before, and he played very well. ”

"It's all happening, it's a coincidence."

"Yes, he runs a business and may come to Seattle for business."

The bus started slowly, Yang Di put down his backpack and put it at his feet, the NBA players' buses are specially made, and there is a lot of space between the positions, even if two big men like Yang Di sit side by side, they will not feel cramped or crowded.

Yang Di looked out through the glass, under the elevated highway, the lights in the distance were brilliant, and the night scene of the city was like a colorful picture, full of energy.

……

The next day, the Warriors lost 97-108 to the SuperSonics.

The SuperSonics made 14 three-pointers, including Lewis and Ray Allen on 5-of-7 shooting and 5-of-9 shooting, and the Warriors looked like they were losing by 11 points, but they trailed by a full 20 points at the highest point of the second half.

Yang Di is also very helpless, this time he met Reggie Evans is a bald, bearded devil muscleman, not much inferior to him in terms of rebounding, and the defense is particularly active.

In the end, Yang Di played 35 minutes and only scored 8 points, got 13 rebounds and 2 blocks, which is decent.

That night, the whole Warriors team took the team bus to the airport in Seattle, and then rushed to New Orleans overnight, which was a team that Yang Di was familiar with.

The New Orleans Hornets played the playoffs as an Eastern Conference team for the last time last season, and Youngdy played three games with them before being injured by a foul by Magloyer and reimbursed for the season.

Yang Di has always wanted to hold an arrow of revenge.

However, at the same time, the Hornets, who were also back-to-back, suffered a serious injury, and Jamal Magloyer suffered a severe sprained left ankle and missed the next two months. Earlier, Byron Davis had also suffered an injury and would not be able to return until next month.

Therefore, the revenge battle after Yang Di became stronger, which was originally exaggerated by the media, became an unequal game.

The starting lineup that the Hornets put together, David Wesley, Darrell Armstrong, Lee Nayron, David West, PJ Brown, is almost a four-like lineup.

Wesley and Armstrong are both 1.83m guards, with the remaining three being power forwards.

In comparison, the Warriors' lineup is obviously more balanced and complete, so the misplaced players such as Dunleavy and Richardson on the court are obviously much easier to play.

In the end, the Warriors won the game 104-97, Richardson had the best performance, with 29 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists, and then Dunleavy also scored 22 points, and Young Dee had 13 points, 9 rebounds and 4 blocks, including 5 shots, shooting 100 percent.

"Yang Di was selected as an All-Star waitlist."

With Yang Di's outstanding performance, there is no doubt that he will enter the list of candidates for the All-Star election this season, and the Bay Area fans who are concerned about him, as well as the majority of Chinese fans, immediately take action and are ready to vote for him.
