Chapter 727: Chapter 495: You Are the Worst Batch I’ve Ever Taught (Combined) – Part 2 Chapter 727: Chapter 495: You Are the Worst Batch I’ve Ever Taught (Combined) – Part 2 “Uh…”

In Yu Fei’s memory, the last person who opened champagne before the game and shared a third of the honor with others didn’t end up with particularly good results.

Later, just as Yu Fei was about to train, Karl called him over again.

“Frye, after the game, I want to tell you something,” Karl said.

Yu Fei responded, “Before that, I need to tell you something else.”

What is it?” Karl asked.

“Durant wants to grab the AMVP tonight; let him play a few more minutes.”

Typically, unless a player’s real strength reaches the top ten in the league’s emperor stars, those selected for the All-Star starters for the first time don’t usually get the starter treatment.

Meaning, if Yu Fei hadn’t mentioned it, Karl might have managed Durant’s playing time, not letting him play too much.

After Yu Fei finished speaking, Karl knew what to do.

However, the start of the game wasn’t friendly to Durant.

Right at the beginning, James made an impactful three-pointer, followed by Kobe’s dunk, and then, the Eastern’s Howard continued Shaquille O’Neal’s goofy tradition and voluntarily shot a three from the outside, luckily making it.

Someone said, “Truly the best young player currently, Dwight Howard’s skills are very much in line with the trends of the times!”

The Western’s starting center Yao Ming heard it and thought, Are these training-level three-pointers also called “in line with the trends of the times”? It’s unreasonable; he wanted to show these shortsighted people what a center keeping up with the trends really looked like.

So, as Yu Fei dribbled over, he noticed Yao Ming actively setting screens.

The two knew each other so well that Yu Fei could tell what Yao Ming was planning just by his gestures and expressions.

A screen was set, the big man pulled outwards, and the ball handler cut inside. The low confrontation and zero defense of the All-Star game gave Yao Ming an open spot, and Yu Fei’s timely pass helped him score a three-pointer.

“Why are you a big guy shooting threes so accurately? Did you eat the soul of a center?” Yu Fei said.

“Damn it! You have the nerve to say that? Aren’t we all practicing threes because of you?” Yao Ming retorted.

Yu Fei and Yao Ming’s interaction and chemistry often made Chinese fans fantasize about them playing on the same team.

However, it was their unattainable perfect match that made the Yu-Yao connection at the All-Star game look so wonderful.

Durant was getting anxious. He was thinking about nabbing the AMVP but hadn’t received a single ball since the start.

The Lakers had decided not to pass the ball to anyone else.

Yu Fei and Yao Ming began to play it up.

He felt like he was all alone.

Durant gave Yu Fei a signal, trying to join the Yu-Yao party and make it a trio.

“Frye, pass me a ball,” Durant said.

“No problem.”

The Western All-Star Team’s passing was the most comical part.

Kobe only passed to James, and James only passed to Kobe, to keep Yu Fei from snapping, Yao Ming, considering the bigger picture, would hustle to pick up the ball from the floor and distribute it fairly between Yu Fei and James as “one for you, one for him.”

Seeing him play the peacemaker, Yu Fei sarcastically said, “If we let you divide the pie under the collective bargaining agreement, a lockout wouldn’t erupt even in a hundred years!”

Yao Ming laughed, “That said, do I have the potential to be the league commissioner?”

“You could at most be the commissioner of the CBA!”

“CBA doesn’t have a commissioner.”

“Well, now it will.”

“Then there’s hope for basketball in China.”

On the next offensive play, Yu Fei handled the ball while Yao Ming, itching to shoot a three, actively came up to set a screen.

Yu Fei suddenly channelled Jordan, sticking out his tongue while passing the ball to Durant without looking.

“Following your trajectory, one for you, one for him,” Yu Fei said.

Next, Durant performed an authentic isolation play, but Wade on the other side wasn’t giving him a break, playing tight defense and forcing Durant to miss.

The Eastern All-Star Team rushed on a fast break, leaving Yu and Yao watching from where they stood.

“Looks like you’re quite good at dividing the cake yourself; maybe you should run for the president of the players’ union,” Yao Ming teased Yu Fei.

Yu Fei hummed, “If I became president, the first thing I’d do is kick you out of the union.”

Durant felt like his nose was being pinched; uncomfortable and helpless, he didn’t understand why Yu Fei and Yao Ming were so happy, nor where they got so many topics to talk about.

Maybe Big Fei’s best friend in the league wasn’t Brandon Roy but this seemingly goofy Chinese giant?

Durant didn’t realize that Yu Fei was actually helping him.

For the entire first quarter, unless it was a fast break, Yu Fei basically didn’t initiate any offense.

Yao Ming being a center didn’t demand much ball control either, and the game of distributing possessions “one for you, one for him” quickly shifted to passing only to Durant.

However, Durant wasn’t feeling good tonight; Wade was defending him so earnestly that even Yu Fei couldn’t stand watching it.

“Dwyane, if you love defense so much, try leading Miami Heat to the finals. Then you can defend KD like this every game,” Yu Fei said.

This hit home for Durant.

“This big cheeked bastard playing defense so hard in an All-Star game, is he sick?” Durant thought.

Wade didn’t back down, retorting, “That’s assuming you guys even make it to the finals.”

“You’re right, they won’t make it,” Kobe interjected.

Yu Fei sarcastically said, “Too bad your word doesn’t count.”

The stars trash talking on the court, those scenes aren’t quite suitable for an All-Star Game aimed at promoting “harmony, friendship, entertainment,” but this is exactly what the fans wanted to see there.

“Brothers in Good” basketball games are among the most disgusting things in sports.

The open discord and disrespect amongst Yu Fei, Kobe, and James provided great satisfaction for the fans in the stands.
