122. Whoever holds out til the end is the true winner!_2

Last season, the SuperSonics secured 52 wins, placing first in the Northwest Division, and battled the Spurs for six games in the second round of the playoffs, but due to mismanagement, their strength severely declined this season, bringing their record down to around 30 wins.

Ray Allen did not hold back either, putting in effort throughout the early to mid-season, but effort does not always yield results. He did not have the scoring prowess of his peers, averaging only about twenty-five or twenty-six points per game, and was unable to single-handedly defeat the opposition, while also witnessing his scoring king contemporaries, one leading his team to the top eight of the West and the other making a push for the playoffs in the East, ultimately accepting his fate.

Feeling sorry for Ray Allen's predicament for three seconds, Zhang Yang redirected his attention back to his own team.
