Chapter 453: I Did Not Come For Second Place

In early April, the SuperSonics' unbeaten record since March was broken by the Spurs, taking their ninth defeat of the season.

If they wanted to surpass the '96 Bulls, they could not afford to lose again.

As per the season's pattern, after every loss, Fei would perform heroically, boosting the team's morale.

But this time, with the Cavaliers as their opponents, the focus on Yu Fei versus James added extra heat to the game.

Although the SuperSonics were leagues ahead in terms of record, the Cavaliers, with James, were also one of the top three in the Eastern Conference.

In early March, a rule change regarding traveling directly amplified James's already unstoppable drives.

The Celtics fell due to Garnett's injury, while leveraging the new rule, the Cavaliers suddenly rose to become a powerhouse on par with the Magic and Bucks.
