Chapter 459: The New King of the Alliance

On the second day after the Sonics won the championship, a trend had already begun to quietly rise among basketball fans across the United States.

——Asians have become the biggest bosses in the NBA! We are helping our opponents cultivate talents!

——Just wait and see, if this continues, let alone the NBA championship, even the World Championship and Olympic champions will be taken over by that Asian!

——Only those idiots in Seattle are still happy. They don’t know what kind of demon they are cultivating. The American men’s basketball team will fall into the dust and never make a breakthrough!

——Oh my God, please God give us a second Jordan to punish that Asian! If he wins the championship again, I will never want to watch the NBA again!

——Hahaha, you just can’t eat grapes and say grapes are sour. If the Lakers win the championship, won’t the Lakers also have an Asian? You won’t say anything.

——That’s right, don’t look at the problem with such a narrow perspective. Our United States is open, free and absolutely democratic. Seattle will always support Lin Dong!

——Washington fans said we also support the new basketball god! The only Lin Dong and his supersonic queen!

——Get out of the way, Washington idiot, someone will definitely stand up to deal with that Asian guy next season!

——Hey, brother! Please add the word "state" when you say Washington, don't affect our Washington DC, our Wizards are also victims!

The Internet was full of ghosts and wolves, fans all over the United States were protesting, and they scolded the fans in Washington State with overwhelming numbers.

In a luxurious villa in Cleveland...

There was a huge swimming pool outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

At this time, the servants had been cleared out by the swimming pool. Under the elegant blue sky and white clouds, a classic black and white fight had just ended!

The tired man and woman were lying on the beach chairs by the swimming pool. After experiencing the extreme lovemaking just now, they were enjoying the beauty of the sun and recovering the physical strength consumed for more than an hour just now.

"Oh, it looks like you are much more tired than playing basketball." The woman said cunningly, teasing the man's chest that kept rising and falling with her fingers with interest.

"After all, you only need to exercise on the court for 48 minutes." LeBron's dark and broad cheeks were full of sweat. With a serious expression and the calmest words, he said the words that could most tease this woman: "To me, you are the strongest defender in the world."

The girl laughed because of the teasing. It was Laura Ballmer.

After taking over the Cleveland Cavaliers for a year, she felt that her world seemed to have opened up a new world - these guys are too strong, this is simply a paradise for free women like her!

Especially LeBron, the physical fitness that made her fascinated. In comparison, Tony and those students from Lakeside High School were just like babies still holding bottles, not worth mentioning at all!

At the beginning, she was attracted to Wade, and she tried it a few times. After all, the big-cheeked guy looked more handsome on the surface.

But now, LeBron has become her new favorite, and the only one, because this guy is really too strong, and his broad chest always makes Laura feel like she is holding a mountain.

What made Laura feel even more funny and fresh was that such a strong guy was the first time when he was with her!

After resting for a long time, Laura finally had some strength. She propped herself up and sat beside him, drinking a drink with satisfaction, and then looked at the strong man lying on the beach chair next to her, looking up at the sky in a daze.

"Hi, dear, don't think about basketball during this rare vacation." Laura couldn't help laughing: "Don't worry, I will let you replace Lin Dong. In this season, you are a real man!"

"Haven't you talked about it with the Wizards yet?" LeBron smiled, responding to the woman's courtesy. His voice always seemed very calm, which was the second aspect that Laura appreciated.

This guy in his early 20s was obviously the same age as herself, but he had a maturity different from his peers.

As Ballmer's daughter, she had seen her father's calmness and wisdom, and her father's majesty as a superior. The admiration she had since childhood was deeply rooted in her bones and could not be changed at all.

Although she is more obsessed with physical enjoyment because of her youth, deep down, the attraction of mature men to her has never faded.

Even next to the spring scenery in the pool, facing this stunning beauty, this guy can still calmly think about his own future... This kind of brave man who can go to court and get off bed, I really love him.

"Bolin doesn't want to let go. He wants to use McGrady to exchange Ray Allen... But how can I let that big-mouthed idiot take your place?" Laura said with a smile: "Maybe I have to give away some extra things, but don't worry, I'm ready, O'Neal can't run away."

LeBron didn't respond to her words immediately. What he was recalling in his mind at this time was all the scenes of the Western Conference Finals between the Supersonics and the Lakers.

Although it was a seemingly unsuspenseful 4:0, there are too many things that real masters can see from it.

Lin Dong is too strong... That kind of state of returning to nature is so strong that LeBron even feels desperate.

Over the past year, he has been thinking about becoming stronger and surpassing others all the time. He has paid a lot for this and has indeed achieved a lot.

207cm, 118kg, he still maintains his athletic ability and speed. Only God knows what he has paid for this.

He has been practicing basic skills, and he has become obsessed with it. His level has improved greatly.

Although his shooting skills have changed due to weight gain during the regular season, and his hit rate has fluctuated, he has now fully adapted to it...

To be honest, since he lost in the World Championships, until now, in the past four years, LeBron feels that his life has been nothing but training and nothing but basketball.

He gave up everything for this.

Not only all the money he made after entering the NBA, but also the fact that he didn't even have a relationship during this four-year adolescence!

He abandoned all the desires of a teenager and put all his energy into basketball. He thought he had created the strongest monster, but when he saw Lin Dong in the Western Conference Finals...

When he saw that guy taking whatever he wanted on the court with a calm attitude and easily controlling the outcome of the entire game, LeBron knew that no matter how much he practiced in his life, he would never have the opportunity to surpass Lin Dong one-on-one on the court.

If he is a monster, a monster like Jordan, then that Asian is the ancestor of monsters!

But now... there is another chance!

With his relationship with Laura, he knows a lot of things in the league now, including Stern's private talks with most team owners except the Supersonics, wanting to form a super team to stop Lin Dong and defend the pride of the American basketball sanctuary.

The league actually originally favored the Wizards and the Lakers.

The Lakers need not be mentioned. Although the combination of Kobe and Yao Ming lost in the Western Conference Finals, everyone can see that it is because the Lakers lack an excellent point guard, so that Kobe and Yao Ming's advantages cannot be fully released and exerted. With the combination of Odom, this Lakers will become the biggest opponent of the Supersonics as long as they strengthen the point guard line next season, and Yao Ming and Kobe cooperate more skillfully.

As for the Wizards, after all, they have O'Neal, who was once known as the No. 1 player in the league. Although O'Neal's record is a little worse than Yao Ming and Duncan, he is still the only super center that the Supersonics could not limit on the court last season.

In addition, with McGrady's super scoring ability, it is obviously the most convenient to build a super team with this as the cornerstone.

It's a pity that I heard that the Wizards' owner Pollin was reluctant to spend money and pay too much luxury tax. He tried to let Stern break the precedent for their team and introduce some invisible regulations to let the Wizards pick up a few superstars for free.

To put it bluntly, they want benefits but are reluctant to invest.

Stern naturally couldn't agree, so the Cavaliers got the advantage.

Because Laura was willing to spend money! Stern had already communicated with Laura privately, and he would give the Cavaliers the greatest help in forming this super team within the rules, such as helping them to make connections, and using a restriction order to restrict Wade from jumping out of the 3+1 contract.

It was Stern who personally put pressure on the Wizards to let Pollin give up O'Neal. Although there were some obstacles, LeBron believed that Pollin just wanted more money, and Laura would handle it.

But even so, LeBron still felt it was not enough... As long as he thought of Lin Dong's performance in the Western Conference Finals, he was not confident.

"Even with O'Neal, we still lack point guards and defensive 3D players..." LeBron said.

"Kidd is already in talks, the Lakers can't compete with us, their salary space is too small, as for 3D players... Don't worry, I have the most suitable candidates, of course, that may require some external assistance."

3D players? Thanks to the outside shooting trend brought by the Supersonics, the league is now the most lacking of this. As long as you are willing to spend money, let alone the endorsement of the league, even if there is no league, Laura can find a lot of them.

"And it's not just our enhancement. The Lakers will continue to strengthen next season. Even if Kidd is not obtained, Stern will find ways to give them the best point guard. At that time, the Lakers will give the Supersonics enough impact and consumption in the West, and even off-court consumption. Someone will mess with the Supersonics..." Laura laughed and said some gossip that LeBron didn't know yet. That was something that only businessmen knew: "... Wait and see, next season, you will be the new king standing at the top of the league!"
