Chapter 667: Chapter 475: You Don’t Understand Anything_2 Chapter 667: Chapter 475: You Don’t Understand Anything_2 Ah…?

Dr. Jack Andrews from the SuperSonics, who had kept the team in a healthy state and helped secure two consecutive championships over the past two years, is about to be dismissed because the team, like those chasing a triple championship, inevitably encountered injury issues?

“No… of course not,” Presti said, “Dr. Jack Andrews is very professional.”

Bennett asked, “So the injury issues are not his fault?”

“There is no evidence to prove that it’s his fault.”

“Does that mean there is no evidence to prove it’s not?”

Presti sighed, “We can’t do that.”

Bennett wanted to have a certain impact on the team, even if it was just firing someone, but he couldn’t even manage that.

“So what can we do?” Bennett asked.

“Wait for this rough patch to pass,” Presti said, “and see if good things happen.”

Bennett couldn’t undertake any staffing changes in his capacity as the owner.

But he still took action.

A few days later, the SuperSonics announced that they were hiring a psychologist publicly to address some players’ psychological issues.

It was clear to everyone that this was arranged for Anthony Morrow.

However, the momentum of the SuperSonics hadn’t improved yet.

Injuries and off-court issues cost them their starting interior players, significantly affecting the depth of their roster.

Little O and DeAndre Jordan started their first game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

This was a team balanced in its interior and exterior lines, with many star players.

Facing his former teammates, Yu Fei scored 44 points, while Roy and Durant added 22 and 26 points respectively. However, even with the three combining for 90 points, the Bucks still secured the victory in the fourth quarter with their interior advantage.

That was the second defeat of the season for the SuperSonics.

Bill Simmons remarked after the game, “Those who exalted Frye to the height of God, now do you understand that 73 wins and 9 losses were not achieved by one man’s power alone, just like the four championships in five years were not because of just one person. I admit that Frye, with six championships in seven years, has his own dynasty. But if you say it belongs to him alone, I advise you to take your medication. You’re delusional, much like Frye’s arrogance is beyond cure.”

When the SuperSonics lost, whether in the media or on the internet, the trend of public opinion usually turned into a world war between Yu Fei’s fans and other fans.

This situation was like the mockery the Golden State Warriors faced after losing during their “universe” period.

George Karl’s response to the injury crisis was to shorten the rotation.

The playing time for Yu Fei, Roy, and Durant was increased.

Durant liked this change.

After Chris Bosh’s injury, the ball distribution for the SuperSonics reverted to that of last season.

Due to the decreased depth in the roster, the SuperSonics relied even more on their three outside giants for scoring.

Before the injury issues, Durant had several games where he scored under 20 points, but afterward, he scored over 20 points in every game.

In mid-November, Kwame Brown came back from suspension.

Karl tried pairing him with Little O in the interior.

This duo, despite their personal grudges, did not bring their disputes onto the court.

Mainly because Brown didn’t dare to.

He knew what Yu Fei liked and disliked.

During his suspension, Brown sealed his Twitter account and focused on rehabilitation training.

This led to him being much better received upon his return than before his suspension.

Again facing the Memphis Grizzlies, Brown managed to score 10 points and grab 5 rebounds, all by catching lobs over Joakim Noah.

Little O gradually adapted to Bosh’s role, performing most of the things Bosh did on the court, except for shooting threes.

During this period, Yu Fei increased his attempts from beyond the arc.

His average three-pointers made per game rose from a steady 3 to 4.5, with 11 attempts per game and a shooting percentage of 40%.

Three-point shooting was the most criticized skill of Jordan, but it was also the technique Yu Fei used to change the game.

Now, he was stinging some people’s eyes with his unique three-point production and top-ranking accuracy.

The SuperSonics were on a winning streak.

At the end of November, they challenged the Boston Celtics away.

Yu Fei remembered what Bill Simmons had said, and that was bound to affect his attitude toward this regular-season game.

The game itself was like an execution of the Celtics.

Doc Rivers focused on interior defense as a top priority, but Yu Fei had no intention of approaching the interior.

After calling for a screen outside, he immediately shot a three-pointer;
He also received the ball after moving outside, shooting a three-pointer;
Durant’s ball-handling and poor outward pass, which almost led to a turnover, was saved by Yu Fei, who then shot an uncomfortable three-pointer and scored;
After Pierce’s failed solo effort, Yu Fei caught the rebound and quickly followed with a trailing three-pointer;
… three-pointers, one after another.

When this technique was introduced decades ago, nobody cared about it.

Now, it had forever changed basketball games.

That night, Yu Fei made 15 out of 20 shots, including 10 of 12 from beyond the arc, scoring a total of 46 points, 10 rebounds, and 6 assists.

“Frye, how much influence did Bill Simmons have on your performance tonight?”

“The thing he’s most proud of,” Yu Fei laughed, “is making people think he might influence me.”

“So he had no influence on you.”

“No, he made me feel nauseous,” Yu Fei laughed, “But I think he doesn’t care. As a loyal Bostonian, he lives in Los Angeles and hypocritically claims to love everything about Boston. Do you think I would take him seriously? I just purely find him nauseous.”
