Chapter 424. 425. Revenge of Oklahoma City
"Zhou Qi has great potential. His wingspan is very long. Anyone who wants to do something in front of him must carefully weigh it."

Lin Feng reposted the online news criticizing Zhou Qi, and then supported the big devil.

His voice is not surprising, because Lin Feng has shown a "China hand" from the beginning to the end.

Of course, this also brought him a lot of infamy, especially the fans of the arch-rival Celtics. They believed that Lin Feng had taken money from Chinese companies, and even wanted to become a Chinese citizen himself.

Lin Feng dismissed this, and responded to them with a sentence of "fake you".

Los Angeles fans are very puzzled by his "Oriental Fever" behavior, but they are not worried about this at all, because Lin Feng currently belongs to the Los Angeles Lakers and is helping the team compete for the championship.

It is foreseeable that when Lin Feng appeared in Boston's North Shore Garden Arena, he must have been booed all over the sky, and the Bostonians will not let them relax.

But that's a month away, and it's too early to think about it now.

Flying to Oklahoma City with the South Bay Lakers, although it is not an NBA-level game, the Oklahoma City people may not be too friendly to Lin Feng.

On the night of the 3rd, the Thunder had the last laugh in that gunpowder-flavored game. Lin Feng finally lost in the fight with Westbrook, and he was admitted to the hospital.

The Development League is not the rich and powerful NBA. There is no charter flight but economy class.

A big guy like Howard felt aggrieved sitting there, but he just smiled and accepted the team's arrangement readily.

The Development League is not as glamorous as the NBA, and sometimes it is even necessary to take a bus to the visiting team to play, because the turnover of personnel is particularly large, and some players who have no hope of entering the NBA will look for opportunities to play in Europe.

When they arrived at the Oklahoma City Airport, they were like a group of tourists, without any reception service, and even had to arrange their own vehicles to go to the hotel.

"This is the Development League, extremely cruel." Howard said with emotion.

Lin Feng glanced at his teammates. Most of them may not have the opportunity to be on the NBA stage in this life. It is very satisfying to have the current treatment.

He feels sorry for Marco Jones. That guy can only receive a salary of 2.6 US dollars a year from the team. In order to make ends meet, he has to go to the gas station to do odd jobs when there is no game. This is also the epitome of the life of many development league veterans .

Well, the world is cruel, and Lin Feng considers himself extremely lucky.

The Oklahoma Blues are basically unknown players, and tomorrow night's game will be another big kill.

Lin Feng is looking forward to it, and Howard is also looking forward to it.Because during training, the coach promised to increase his basket singles.

In fact, this is entirely due to the Lakers management. In their eyes, the South Bay Lakers are the home team's player reserve.

Walton wondered how much gas his new center had in the tank, even though Howard would play more of a blue-collar role for the Lakers going forward, creating offense for a group of young men in their early 20s.

In the last training session, the whole team showed a tacit understanding, which made Lin Feng very pleased that his teammates were able to move according to his intention.

Howard is unbeatable around the basket, at least not among the South Bay Lakers.

Lin Feng tried to play post-up with him, and his turn and step back jump shot was ruthlessly blocked. This guy's defensive ability is simply terrible.

It's like a big hand that can always reach out to you, any movement is futile in front of him.

Lin Feng began to imagine the regular season in the future. He couldn't understand why the other 29 teams were unwilling to give such a big smiling boy a chance, even though he was 33 years old.

"You know Gary, I had infinite expectations for a championship ring. I scored [-] points and was an All-Star, and the best defensive player. Everyone thinks that I will enter the Hall of Fame after I retire, but I don't have a championship. , it will be a lifetime of pain."

During the interval between training, the two would get together and chat.

Lin Feng expressed his approval, how can a basketball player who believes in basketball allow himself not to have the highest honor.

champion?Of course, Lin Feng also wanted to get it in his dreams.

"That's right, man, I have the same vision as you. This is my first year in the NBA. From the first game I stepped on the court, I felt that I was here for the championship."

Lin Feng was telling the truth. On the night he transmigrated into "Gary Smith" half a year ago, when Xiao Hua pronounced his name and tied himself with the Los Angeles Lakers, he thought he had ushered in a brand new life.

An old boy from the East realized his basketball dream, although he only took the first step.

A No. [-] pick and a last-round pick, the two always have endless topics to talk about when they get together, just like friends they haven't seen for a long time.

Or maybe it was the ups and downs in their careers that allowed the two to find a resonance.For Howard, he is faced with the opportunity of rebirth, so that his basketball career will no longer have regrets; for Lin Feng, he guards the biggest secret in the world, and has lost the capital that once made him "proud". The mood can be imagined.

From a certain level, both of them are men in the valley pit, and they need to come out again and continue walking.

That night against the Oklahoma City Blues, Lin Feng completely released himself. Everyone who saw him playing at the scene believed that he was the "Michael Jordan" of Los Angeles, not the common name of "Gary Smith".

"God, that guy rules the game! Oh no, he's actually the king of the court."

Those who watched the game were all amazed, although they did not forget the previous conflict between Lin Feng and Westbrook, and the two even scolded each other on Twitter after the game.

Cheers erupted from the Oklahoma Metropolis Arena as the home fans had abandoned their listless blue boys to cheer on Lin Feng and Howard.

Lin Feng used his best inside to break through the blue line of defense. In the first quarter, he scored 15 points and 8 assists. Four of the assists were given to Howard, helping him reproduce the monster inside, and the dunk slammed.

The stadium staff even suspended the game to tighten the screws on the blue team's ball frame.

Lin Feng flew to the sky and clocked in three quarters, scoring a super triple-double of 42 points, 13 rebounds and 15 assists. If he hadn't played at all in the fourth quarter, he might have set a scoring record in the Development League.

But he didn't care about these things, and spent the entire fourth quarter on the floor.

Howard was also outstanding, surrendering a large double-double with 33 points, 18 rebounds and 6 blocks.

Driven by the star, Marco Jones scored 7 points on 4 of 15 outside shots. He also apologized to Lin Feng after the game, which put an end to the conflict between the two half a year ago.

The South Bay Lakers won 143-112 away by 31 points. After a hearty victory, Lin Feng and Howard ended their short trip to the Development League and flew directly to Houston to join the team.

This time it was first class, and Howard could stretch his legs comfortably.
