At halfti, the SuperSonics reversed their previously weak performance against the Lakers, delivering a striking in-ga performance to the world.

54 to 67

The ho-standing Lakers lagged behind with a 13-point deficit.

“Last ti they t, the SuperSonics were without both Brandon Roy and Chris Bosh, and even with Frye scoring 64 points, they couldn’t win the ga. But tonight, the return of Chris Bosh has completely changed the complexion of the battle. Does this suggest that Chris’s role in Seattle isn’t as marginal as we thought?”

On ESPN’s live broadcast seat, Mike Breen tossed a professional question to his forr pro partner.

Mark Jackson admitted, “Chris definitely had a greater impact tonight than Brandon did.”

Jeff Van Gundy, as a forr pro coach, possessed a broader perspective than Jackson.

“Interestingly, the Lakers have never seen the SuperSonics at full strength. Whether it’s the world-famous Christmas showdown, the ga that ended LeBron’s six-year losing streak, or tonight’s ga, the SuperSonics’ lineup has never been complete,” Van Gundy said, “at Christmas, they were without Chris Bosh, and tonight, they’re without Brandon Roy. Interestingly, even missing a star player, the SuperSonics still take the initiative on the court.”

...

Jackson reminded, “Except for the second ga.”

“Even in the second ga that ended LeBron’s six-year losing streak, Frye scored 64 points. We can say he took the initiative on the court; he just lacked support…” Van Gundy offered his viewpoint, “Once Frye gets effective help, the rhythm of the ga completely moves to the SuperSonics’ side. This is sothing the Lakers need to reflect on.”

Then, Breen chid in, “Moreover, Kevin Durant didn’t perform well in the first half, and LeBron’s defense against him was effective. If he gets into his rhythm, it’ll be even tougher for the Lakers.”

Van Gundy said with a aningful smile, “That’s sothing the SuperSonics need to contemplate. If Chris maintains his form, and KD cos back in the second half, the Lakers might just give away the ga.”

For the Lakers fans in attendance, watching the first half was an unpleasant experience.

The team was being overpowered, and the coaching staff never ca up with an effective counterasure.

Even an outsider could see the advantage Bosh had at the power forward position.

The Lakers have two main celebrity super fans, one black and one white. The black one is the rap king “Uncle Snoop” Dogg, and the white one is the Oscar-winning actor Jack Nicholson.

They both expressed dissatisfaction with Phil Jackson for letting Bosh do as he pleased in the paint.

“Damn N-word! Just put Andrew Bynum and that Spaniard on the court together, N-word!” Snoop Dogg cursed angrily, “What good is a damn Spaniard, N-word! Do sothing for once, N-word! We’re getting screwed by that son of a beach, Frye, N-word! Damn, don’t lose to Seattle again, N-word~~~~~~~!”

Nicholson, unlike Snoop Dogg, who was ranting as if he’d gone crazy, chose to go to the aisle and trash-talk Yu Fei.

“You’re going down tonight! Your new movie is as tasteless as your team’s jerseys!” Nicholson yelled, “You’ll never get an Oscar!”

Yu Fei replied with a laugh, “What Oscar could an NBA player win?!”

Clearly, Nichols thought that because Yu Fei played a major supporting role in “Iron Man 2,” he had plans for a future in Hollywood.

But Yu Fei’s foray into Marvel was just an investnt to expand his influence in the future.

“You’ll definitely get this year’s Golden Raspberry Award!”

Nicholson cursed in the aisle.

Yu Fei waved with a smile, “Wish you good health; I hope you’ll live to see the Lakers win another championship within your lifeti, but that’s only if you live long enough to see retire.”

Nicholson’s retort also felt as if he was high: “FUCK YOU!!! My Lakers have a dozen championships; we don’t need one or two more. Seattle will never compare! Even if you win three in a row, you can’t compare! FUCK YOU!!!!”

In the face of such a ntally unbalanced person, Yu Fei could only wish him good health once more.

The exchange between Yu Fei and Nicholson was captured on cara.

Many reporters had already thought about how to spin their verbal showdown.

So photographers captured Nicholson’s desperate expression after being rattled, as well as Yu Fei’s smile.

As Yu Fei made his way down the aisle, fans on both sides waved frantically, trying to get an autograph.

Yu Fei saw soone holding a genuine rookie card from his early years.

Now, the card’s value had skyrocketed.

Yu Fei stopped and signed his na on that card.

A player card worth thousands of dollars could double in price after acquiring the signature of its featured player.

With a simple gesture, Yu Fei made a fan’s day and then walked through the aisle with his trademark smile.

“Frye…”

“Over here, Lord!!!”

“Frye, we love you…!!!”

Yu Fei didn’t turn back and just waved his hand, moving on.

Behind him, Durant quietly followed.

As this year’s Western All-Star starter, Durant didn’t receive such adulation on the road.

As he walked through the aisle Yu Fei had just passed, the only person who showed any reaction to him was Nicholson, who hadn’t finished cursing.
