Chapter 662: Chapter 473: Passing Master (Combined)_4 Chapter 662: Chapter 473: Passing Master (Combined)_4 Because of their relationship, he could indulge Brown, but it must be noted that as a big man with limited innate talent and basketball skills worn down by years of blue-collar play, if he couldn’t proactively develop offensive skills now that shooting had become crucial to survival, then DeAndre Jordan, with no top-tier talents to boast of either, could surpass him quickly just by sheer natural ability.
By then, even if Fei protected him, the coaching staff would still have to fairly determine their status.
Because this is basketball.
Strengths and weaknesses are plain to see.
In the final six minutes, Jermaine O’Neal checked in for Chris Bosh, marking the beginning of garbage time.
The final score, 119 to 87, the SuperSonics dominated the Pistons, achieving their second consecutive win.
Fei, who scored 22 points in the first half, added 9 points from three-pointers in the second half, but the SuperSonics won by 32 points in the half.
Reporters couldn’t help but wonder why such a drastic change had occurred.
If not answered well, this question might be used by Fei’s critics as material for “the SuperSonics play better without Fei scoring.”
Fei chuckled, “It’s like tug-of-war. In the first half, I was the only one pulling. In the second half, the other guys pulled too. As the stronger side, it was easy to win the game once we all pulled together.”
“Do you still want to talk about Michael Jordan?”
“Did he respond?”
“Not at the moment.”
“Then forget it,” Fei said, “you know, I’m not one to nitpick.”
“Frye called me a passing genius, and I indeed am.”
Tonight, Roy, with 18 shots and 8 makes, racked up 22 points, 4 rebounds, and 12 assists.

The second half was his ideal state of play.
He called plays at the top of the arc, and if that didn’t work, he passed it to Fei.
Usually, as long as there wasn’t a skirmish for the ball, he could organize the offense neatly.
“It’s important to make everyone happy,” Roy said, “I think I did that tonight.”
However, Roy actually hadn’t managed that.
Kevin Durant was quietly discontent.
Immediately after the game ended, Durant asked for the stat sheet.
It read: Frye with 18 shots, 11 makes, earning 31 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 1 block; Brandon Roy with 18 shots, 8 makes for 22 points, 4 rebounds, 12 assists; Chris Bosh with 10 shots, 6 makes for 16 points, 7 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 block; Kwame Brown could be disregarded–Kevin Durant, that is, he, in this game on 15 shots, 8 makes scoring 23 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist.
Don’t I deserve 18 shots a game?
Durant asked himself.
“Kevin, you scored an efficient 23 points tonight. Who do you think helped you achieve that?”
Nobody helped me.
Durant looked at him, smiled, and replied, “You’ve asked me many times, and my answer is always the same. The team, without a great team, I couldn’t do it.”
“Frye called Brandon a passing master, what do you think of that?”
That’s sarcastic, you… no, I can’t say that, it’s not something Kevin Durant would say.
But a passing master should pass to teammates with a higher shooting percentage when his own is low.
“He had 12 assists,” Durant said, “I have no doubt about that.”

“Pistons fans think you guys slaughtered them in the second half, but Kwame Brown believes the fans are too fragile. What’s your take?”
“Enjoy the night,” America’s son said with a sunny smile, “The Pistons are a great team with a great history, but I know they’re rebuilding. At one point, the SuperSonics were in the same position. Look how great we are now? Enjoy the process, you’re already on the path to success.”
But once back home, America’s son Kevin Durant would still keep thinking to himself.
Why can’t he get 18 shots a game?
PS: How do you evaluate my city facing rain every day for the next week? I think it’s still Murray’s fault. He messed up the GOAT’s season, and as a fan of the GOAT, I ended up sleeping till the evening after watching the game. It feels like divine punishment.
