Back in 84, he became Jordan’s lifelong enemy!

Chapter 74 Converse sneakers are here!

"Sorry, no more tickets!"

"What? Why are there no tickets?"

"It was sold out half an hour ago, sorry!"

"Ah ah ah, this is too fast, man, can you think of a way? We really want to go in and take a look."

"I'm sorry, the last person also asked me to find a way to help you get in, but I couldn't do it."

"Help, man, it's urgent!"

"Sorry, I really can't help you!"

There was still a long queue at the ticket office of the King's Dome, home of the SuperSonics, but the ticket seller had already told me that the tickets were sold out.

No matter how many fans argued with their arguments and expressed how much they wanted to go in and watch the game, the ticket seller could only respond with a wry smile.

In desperation, the head fans could only leave with their friends.

At the same time, several security guards came out of the arena and used a loudspeaker to explain that the tickets were sold out.

Ever since, bursts of dissatisfaction erupted on the scene.

Some yelled, some complained about being late, some scolded the management for engaging in behind-the-scenes deals and deliberately not selling tickets to them, and some of the children who followed their parents were even so sad that they cried.

"Damn it, you guys have hyped this game up so much these past two days, and now you're telling us that the tickets are sold out. You guys are so abominable!"

"Profiteers! Ugly capitalists, I want to file a complaint against you!"

In the end, most fans could only curse and leave the scene.

Only a small number of unwilling fans stayed and waited for a miracle to happen.

But unfortunately, these fans didn't wait until the game started.

It goes without saying how much attention this game has received and how popular it is.

Before the game, various previews and previews from the media, as well as comments from many basketball commentators and celebrities, have already heated up the game. They are not the only ones who missed the chance to watch the game.

Of course, if there are unfortunate people, there will naturally be lucky people.

Fans who had bought their tickets early walked into the arena with great expectations. Looking at the basketball court, which was still empty and the two sides had not officially entered the stadium, they all felt uncontrollably excited.

"Aww, luckily I had the foresight to buy the tickets early in the morning, otherwise I wouldn't be able to come in tonight."

"I'm looking forward to this game. I've been waiting for it since Su's debut."

"Since the beginning of the season, our opponents have all been teams in the playoffs last season, and tonight we are the overall runner-up. This is so exciting!"

"Come on, come on, let's get started."

"I have a hunch that Su can still score 40+ in this game."

"The stronger the opponent, the more explosive Su's performance will be. I believe he will be able to lead the team to victory."

"The Lakers? They're just a toy that the Celtics can play around with."

"I'm so excited. How will Su perform tonight? He has produced superstar-level statistics in three consecutive games."

"Come on, SuperSonics, kill the Lakers!"

In just ten minutes, thousands of fans poured into the entire stadium.

Everyone's face was filled with intense excitement. While looking for their own position, they were looking forward to the game starting as soon as possible.

It seems that I have been waiting for this day for a long time.

Compared with them, the atmosphere in the locker rooms of both sides was different at this time.

The Lakers' confidence in their own strength allowed them to maintain a relaxed and happy mood. Magic was also talking and laughing with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, James Worthy and others, and there was no trace of the tension before the war.

As for the SuperSonics, the atmosphere was relatively depressing, with everyone's expressions stern and not relaxed, which perfectly matched the tension before the war.

The slightly dull Supersonic soldiers were silently changing their suits and preparing to appear.

Lenny Wilkens didn't have much to say, because he had already made the adjustments and arrangements he could in previous training.

Now it is more about emphasizing the previous arrangements and letting the team members review them.

After a while, the two sides walked out of the tunnel and onto the court.

With the appearance of Sonics players, fans at the scene immediately burst into jubilation.

Everyone chanted the names of Su Wen, Chambers, Al and others, cheering for them, creating a home atmosphere and putting pressure on the visiting team.

Unfortunately, the Lakers have long been accustomed to big scenes and were not affected by the high-pressure atmosphere of the visiting team.

Everyone walked into the court in high spirits and relaxed manner, and warmed up by shooting easily.

Pat Riley and the coaching staff on the sidelines didn't know what they said. He looked relatively relaxed. After a while, he turned his attention to the court and sat down.

Wilkens on the other side frowned and stared at the tactical board, wondering what he was thinking.

"Giggle!"

"Charles!"

"Giggle!"

"Charles!"

In the Philadelphia 76ers players' apartment building, there was a knock on Barkley's door.

He opened it and saw that it was his teammate Leon Wood.

Wood, like him, was a rookie this year. He was selected by the team with the tenth pick in the first round, and then played with him as the main rotation in the first four games of the season.

It can be said that they have established a deep friendship.

"Is the game about to start?"

When Wood walked into the room, his eyes immediately searched for the TV screen.

"Come on, Leon."

Barkley smiled and asked the other party to sit down. He sat on the court and looked directly at the TV.

In the picture at this time, the SuperSonics and Lakers players have finished their warm-up and are taking off their uniforms and preparing to play.

"Charles, who do you think will win?"

Wood's face was calm, but there was a smile in his eyes. He was teasing the other person.

Because he knew that the other party was the former Auburn University teammate of the Sonics rookie named 'Su Wen'.

"Of course it's the Sonics." Barkley replied decisively with an arrogant look that said, "Do you even need to ask?"

"Charles, their opponent was the runner-up last season." Wood reminded.

"That's the Sonics, too." Barkley said disdainfully: "Ervin Johnson is too soft. I watched the finals last season, and he was simply manipulated by Larry. He was no match for him."

"Who doesn't have bad times?" Wood smiled noncommittally.

"Then you don't know how scary Su is." Buckley retorted.

"Haha." Wood shrugged, as if he didn't want to know.

At this moment, the game began.

The Sonics' starting lineup is still the same as the first three games, and the same is true for the Lakers.

Except for Byron Scott, who is 191cm, the other starting members of the Lakers are all over 206cm tall, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar is 218cm.

Thin and tall, like an aged bamboo pole.

Position 206: Magic Johnson, [-]cm;

No. 191: Byrons Scott, [-]cm;

Position 206: James Worthy, [-]cm;

Position 206: Bob McAdoo, [-]cm;

Position 218: Kareem Jabbar, [-]cm.

When the Lakers start, not to mention the strength of the lineup, the average height alone puts a lot of pressure on people.

On the other hand, supersonic speed:
Position 191: Brad Davis, [-]cm;

No. 198: Al Wood, [-]cm;

Position 201: Su Wen, [-]cm;

Position 208: Tom Chambers, [-]cm;

Position 211: Tim McCormick, [-]cm.

Except for Chambers and Wood, the Lakers have a head on the SuperSonics' other positions.

Therefore, based on the confidence that Su Wen's performance in the first three games brought to the coaching staff, Wilkens reminded Su Wen before the game to take more shots tonight and take action whenever there is an opportunity. Don't hesitate and don't worry about your teammates.

With the coach's commitment, Su Wen is equivalent to having unlimited firing rights.

But the coach didn't just say that, he also asked him to defend well.

Um.
To attack and to defend, Su Wen was in pain and happiness.

"Snapped!"

With Kareem Abdul-Jabbar easily snapping the basketball, the game began.

Magic immediately pushed the ball into the frontcourt, and while pushing Su Wen forward with his butt, he observed the dynamics of his teammates.

Su Wen stared at him closely, looking at the other person's eyes and the movements in his hands to judge his next move.

However, the magician's eyes kept moving around, making it difficult to really capture anything.

And the movements in his hands are regular. Who knows whether the opponent will pass or directly attack in the next second?

He simply gave up observing and defended directly at his own pace.

The scene became very quiet at this time.

With the start of a big battle, everyone no longer had the time to chat. A pair of eyes stared at the field, staring at the two of them.

The next second, the magician moved.

He first used his body to block Su Wen's sight, then suddenly exerted force on his wrist and swung the basket. The basketball was like a cannonball, traversing the entire interior defense and reaching McAdoo's hands.

The latter had already bypassed Chambers' defense at this time and was just facing the basket.

After receiving the pass, McAdoo didn't need to adjust at all and went straight to the frame.

"Shh!"

The basketball was picked into the net bag by him.

Immediately after the start of the game, McAdoo raised his fingers to the sky expressionlessly, seeming to praise Magic's pass in this way.

However, the magician ran back to the backcourt easily and freely, his eyes full of provocation to Su Wen.

The latter ignored him at all and ran straight to the corner of the slope.

Just when Magic walked up to him and took a defensive position, Su Wen suddenly moved, reversed and ran to the outside to meet Brand Davis.

After taking the ball from his hand, he just glanced at the basket. The next second, the basketball was like a cannonball and passed straight to Tom Chambers.Chambers had just reached his position and before he could gain a foothold, he saw the basketball flying straight towards him. He took another step in, caught the basketball, turned around, faced the frame, and took off with a bang.

"Bang!"

Chambers never misses an opportunity to dunk.

Offensive and defensive conversion.

When the magician dribbled the ball forward again, he looked at Su Wen a little differently.

He didn't expect that the opponent's first attack would actually pass the ball, and he could pass the ball exactly like him, so he couldn't help but take a second look.

After he reached the top arc position, he suddenly stood up straight and looked inside with sharp eyes, but he was observing Su Wen from the corner of his eyes.

Seeing that Su Wen wanted to take advantage of him to observe his teammates and press forward for a confrontation, he dribbled the ball behind his back and rushed in in the opposite direction of the former.

His speed was not fast, but his steps were very long, and he reached the free throw line in a few clicks.

Although Su Wen was shaken away a little, his strong reaction ability still allowed him to catch up with the opponent in time.

But when he stopped in front of the opponent, he was shocked to find that the ball in his hand was no longer there.

When he turned around, he saw that the basketball was in Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's hands.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar could not directly attack the frame at this time, because McCormick blocked it in time and did not give him a chance to take action.

Unexpectedly, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar just feinted and passed the ball to James Worthy with his backhand.

At this time, Worthy appeared in the gap by running without the ball.

The moment he caught the ball, he made a jump shot.

"Shh!"

Accurate basketball hit.

When he came back, Su Wen led the magician back and forth to the outside, letting his teammates attack on their own. Then he made a gesture of rushing in, took the opponent away, and then turned back and waited for the opponent.

"Are you kidding me?"

The magician followed him and ran back and forth for a while, but found that the other party just stood back and looked at him with a smile, without any appearance of participating in the attack, and said angrily.

Su Wen didn't say anything, just looked at him with a smile.

"boom!"

Unfortunately, his teammates did not score, but were defended by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and McAdoo.

But Chambers was very powerful, catching up with the opponent and grabbing rebounds.

It was at this moment that Su Wen really started to move.

He dived in, and in an instant he got away from the Magician and reached the free throw line.

Chambers saw him and responded with a ground pass.

After catching the ball, Su Wen pulled up and shot.

"Shh!"

Even though he has just started, his touch is still very hot and he has a shot.

After succeeding, Su Wen looked at the magician with a smile, and said in a whisper: "Lanny said, he wants me to get 40+ on your head tonight."

"???"

The magician was a little stunned.

Did your coach really say that?
But just say it, why did you tell me?

Do you want to collaborate with the enemy?

However, after Su Wen said this, he ignored him and ran back to the backcourt.

The magician continued to advance, and when he reached the top arc, he pretended to stand up and observe his teammates, but his body honestly rushed in, leading Su Wen all the way to the penalty area.

Seeing that he was about to reach the basket, Su Wen immediately pushed up and blocked his path.

When Magic stopped, the ball was passed.

As he broke through before, the Lakers starters who moved everywhere and interspersed inside, although they were closely watched by the SuperSonics opponents, they still allowed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to find a chance to slip into the basket.

Magic's pass was meant for him.

After getting the ball, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar stretched out his arm, turned sideways against McCormick's defense, and hooked toward the basket.

"Shh!"

As soon as Tiangou takes action, he will know whether there is one or not.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar made this shot with ease.

This was just the beginning, but the Lakers were starting to show signs of blossoming, and Wilkens's face instantly became serious.

He looked at Su Wen without saying a word.

Back in the frontcourt, Su Wen cut inside when his teammates were guiding the ball.

The magician chased after him and stood in front of him.

But before Su Wen could get into position, he ran back to the outside to receive the pass from his teammate.

After catching the ball, he once again rushed in without waiting for the magician to catch up.

He passed by the opponent in an instant and reached the free throw line as quickly as possible.

James Worthy had to run in to cover.

As soon as he ran forward, Su Wen passed the ball and put the ball into McCormick's hands.

"Bang!"

With only one reverse run, McCormick got rid of the aging Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, slipped into the baseline and dunked.

"Didn't you say you were going to chop me 40+ times on my head? Why did you pass the ball?"

The magician asked with a smile when Su Wen passed by him.

Su Wen shrugged and said as if it was none of my business, "That's what Lanni said."

"is it?"

Magicians don’t believe it.

Sure enough, in the next round, Su Wen got rid of him again, went directly to the basket, received Al Wood's pass, and hit a layup.

"Huh? Why did you score again? Weren't you unhappy before, Su?" The magician was confused by Su Wen's attack and pass.

Although he didn't believe it before, he thought that the other party was not the kind of person who wouldn't keep his word, so he believed it a little bit.

Who would have thought that they would score in the next second.

"But I agreed."

Su Wen smiled happily, "I didn't say I wouldn't agree."

"(⊙ o⊙)ah!"

The magician knew that he had been tricked again. He rolled his eyes and said speechlessly: "Your words are really unpredictable."

"That's right!"

Su Wen laughed, turned and left.

Looking at the opponent's back, the magician shook his head and laughed, then ran to receive the serve.

However, he didn't know that Su Wen was just the beginning.

Less than half a minute later, when the ball he passed to Worthy was not hit, the SuperSonics entered the position. After the battle, Su Wen cut inside without the ball and caught the ball again.

"Shh!"

Hit again!

Immediately afterwards, he rushed in with the ball, made a pass halfway, shook the magician away, picked it up and shot again.

"Shh!"

Another accurate basketball hit.

This was not over yet. In the next four to five minutes, he continuously attacked the inside, took crazy shots, and kept throwing the ball into the basket.

In a short period of time, he scored 10 points in a row and stopped the Lakers.

The audience was in an instant climax.

No one could have imagined that he would explode suddenly and without warning.

This explosion was a series of individual scoring performances that could not be stopped.

"Oh! What's the point? Is this the first point he's gotten?"

"Oh my god, the Lakers were immediately stopped. Su Zhen is incredibly strong."

"It's great. Su really didn't disappoint us. He broke out again and was in a hot state."

"Sue is incredible, too."

The audience also burst into strong cheers and exclamations, filling the entire stadium.

Pat Riley frowned in this noisy atmosphere, his inner pressure increased, and he no longer looked as relaxed as before.

He buried his head in front of the tactical board, glanced at Su Wen, shook his head, and then rearranged his defense.

What he didn't know was that there were also many uninvited guests sitting in the audience.

These people were all dressed in formal attire. They looked like they were not fans, but they were very interested in Su Wen.

"It seems that he came to the right place tonight. He showed his terrible offensive ability in the first quarter."

"You're right, so do we sign him?"

"Why not? If we don't sign him, what are we doing here?"

"Not sure? Check again?"

"Hey, old man, we already missed the Michael Jordan of the Bulls. Do you want to miss this rookie again?"

"That's right, James, we have to get in touch with him as soon as possible. Although I heard that he doesn't have any contract yet, it's just hearsay, and no one knows the real story. If we don't speed up, he will become an adult."

"But we already have Ervin, Larry, and Julius."

"But there aren't any young rookies, right? We need to find a spokesperson for this draft class, to speak to a younger audience, and Sue definitely fits that."

"Don't forget, after that boy from the Bulls signed for that small workshop, there was no movement."

"Well, just before, we just received news that the boy from the Bulls, the pair of products he wore in the first two games, received a very good response from the fan base despite being fined by the league."

"That small workshop would rather risk thousands of dollars in fines to let that kid continue to wear it?"

"But they've achieved the publicity they wanted, haven't they?"

"Well, I still reserve my opinion. I don't think it's necessary to be so anxious to find a rookie to endorse our products. We are Converse, and we follow a superstar strategy. Not just any cat or dog can sign with us!"
