Early the next morning, Feliotta Martin left Stephen's home. Of course, before leaving, the two of them practiced in the morning with the sound of water by the lake. Then, while the sky was still hazy, Stephen drove Feliotta Martin to the vicinity of the team.

Her car was placed here, and Stephen happened to come to the team to practice more. Philipta Martin had decided to visit Wilkens today, and then call Gary Payton, far away in Boston, to see if they could let the two of them come forward.

Letting them come forward to exert their influence is much stronger than Philierta Martin alone. On the one hand, they can call on Seattle fans to move away when the Supersonics are about to usher in revival and dawn. If the number of fans is participating, it can affect more forces, especially the intervention of political forces.

On the other hand, they can also exert their influence in the relocation committee, especially Wilkens, who has served as a player, coach and coach, player, and coaching multiple positions. As a player, he has played for the St. Louis Eagles, Seattle Supersonics, Cleveland Cavaliers and Portland Trail Blazers. As a coach, he has coached the Seattle Supersonics, Cleveland Cavaliers, Atlanta Eagles, Toronto Raptors, New York Knicks, and has served as the head coach of the Dream Team. His connections and influence are so great that few people in the league can match.

Although he had some unpleasantness with the team during his time as a player and coach of the Seattle Supersonics, the team management allowed him to choose one of the two identities of the player and the coach. He chose the player, and the team hoped that he would concentrate on being a head coach and finally traded him to the Cleveland Cavaliers, while the fans chose to strike to protest the team's deal.

But later he returned to Seattle and led the team to win the only championship as the head coach, so he still has a very high position in Seattle. If Philipta Martin could really persuade him to participate, this matter would have been half successful.

However, Wilkens is a very low-key and humble person. As the only person with two prominent identities, the top 50 superstars and top 10 famous coaches, he rarely appears in the media. Whether Philipta can impress Martin is still an unknown.

There are only two ways to buy Bennett. One is to make him realize that it is very difficult to move the Supersonics, so he will naturally take the team. After all, his purpose is not to own a team, but to have Oklahoma City have a team;

Another is that the acquirer proposes a price that he cannot refuse, but few people will do this. No one's money is blown by the wind. The current economic situation is generally not good, and the team's profitability is not very reasonable. Who would spend a lot of money to buy a team that is not profitable?

This season, due to the low salary expenditure and the improvement of the team's record, more fans come to watch the game on the spot. At the same time, with the increase in the number of broadcasts across the United States, the team may be able to balance income and expenditure. If you can still get a bonus in the playoffs, you can barely make a profit, but the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars in exchange for a year of millions of dollars in profit is indeed not a good deal.

So the ideal situation is to first stop Bennet's relocation application, so that he realizes that it is not so easy to move out of the Supersonics, and then find someone to come forward and buy the team from him at a relatively reasonable price. Without any loss, Bennet would not have to set his target on the Supersonics.

The key is that he must realize that it is difficult to move the Supersonics before he will give up. It is not easy to let him stop easily. It took the Spurs nearly ten years to make him realize this fact. He has actually been looking forward to problems with the Spurs' operations. Then Holt was unable to invest money so that he could take advantage of the situation, either acquire more shares or change management, and finally control the team in his own hands and move the team out of San Antonio.

**The reason why Vicky was able to limit the team's spending to a certain extent and maintain the impact on the championship was not so much that he had superhuman basketball wisdom, but was forced out. While calculating carefully, he also wanted to keep the team competitive every year. It was really difficult for him.

So this matter is not so easy to operate. Stephen doesn't plan to come forward, but it's better if there are some things that don't come forward. You can hide behind and observe secretly. Moreover, no matter who loses or wins, it has nothing to do with Stephen. It's not the beginning of the season now. With Stephen's ability now, there is no need to consider the factors of the team boss or management. No matter which team he goes to, he is the object of comfort.

If Stephen is a rebellious and disobedient thorny player who is in trouble for the team every few days, some teams may have to consider it, but Stephen's words and deeds are in line with the standards of professional players, whether on or off the court, what else can you blame for such a player?

As for sometimes he has a bad temper, this foul or technical foul is reasonable and is also part of the basketball game. His performance has improved a lot recently. At least this season, an unexpected thing has not happened.

For Stephen, moving to Oklahoma City also has certain benefits. Although the city is small, there is no competition for teams from other leagues, and the market must be better. This city has never had teams from the four major leagues in history, and it is easy to cultivate loyalty and cohesion.

There is no harm for Stephen to stay in Seattle. After all, Seattle is a big city. As long as the team's performance is ideal, the market does not need to worry too much. There is actually no big difference between creating glory and leading a team to revival.

The Supersonics are not like the Boston Celtics or the Los Angeles Lakers. They have won too many championships, and winning another one is just the icing on the cake. Even if they retire in the future, they have to be ranked behind many people. The Supersonics

Otherwise, it has been a long enough time since the last championship. That generation of fans must be old now. Most of the current fans have not experienced the experience of winning the championship, and will definitely leave a deep enough impression on them.

Whether it is changing cities or bosses, it basically has no impact on Stephen, so Stephen is like watching the fire from the other side of the river. Since the fire cannot burn himself, why not let the fire be bigger? As the saying goes, you don’t care about the big deal. The better the lively, the better it looks.

It will not affect the stability and unity of the team. During training, Stephen suddenly thought of such a possibility. Not everyone has his own confidence, and not everyone doesn’t care who they play for like themselves. Some people like the history of Seattle and the Supersonics, while others like to start over.

It seems that I have to say to Calesimo and let him pay attention to the emotions of the players. Now is a critical period for entering the playoffs. Although there is still a possibility of falling out of the playoffs in theory, it is just in terms of concept. The current Supersonics are not so easy to win.

There are more than ten days left before the final application for relocation. Stephen can guess what will happen in these ten days, but it really has nothing to do with him. It is better to play with peace of mind. Trying to win every game is the king.

The Supersonics won the Nuggets, and the Los Angeles Lakers ranked behind the Supersonics because of one less game. However, tonight, they were talking to the Boston Celtics, and it was hard to say whether they could win this game.

Stephen is very concerned about these two teams that are the strongest this season. At night, Stephen watched the game at his home. Both teams showed their super execution on the field. The Lakers' offensive strength is stronger than the Celtics, but the Celtics won the game with their own iron defense and never giving up.

The Lakers once led by 12 points in the third quarter, but the Celtics quickly improved their defensive strength. Although they could not completely stop the Lakers' scoring, they could make every point the Lakers scored extremely difficult. Perkins held up Bynum tightly, while Garnett was like a multi-handed monster. Not only could he limit the defense of Garnett, but he could also assist in defense against Lakers players who tried to enter the Celtics' penalty area.

Half of the Celtics' defensive system has to be credited to Garnett. In the second half of the fourth quarter, when Kobe Bryant turned on the God of Killing Mode, no matter who defended, he could not stop him from sending the ball into the basket, the Celtics did not panic, but continued to run the tactics slowly and make good use of every offensive opportunity.

On the surface, Kobe Bryant seemed to be constantly sending the ball into the basket, but the advantage of the score was that it was always on the Celtics' side. Until the end, the Lakers did not overtake the score, and eventually defeated the opponent by three-pointer, further widening the gap with the Supersonics.

However, the Supersonics cannot be taken lightly, because the Celtics are the top team in the league, while the Lakers' next team is the New York Knicks, and the Supersonics' opponent is the Phoenix Suns. Although the Suns are still in the ranks of the playoff team, their position is not stable, so such a team will definitely play very hard.

If the Suns cannot be defeated, the next game will be a direct confrontation between the Supersonics and the Lakers. If they lose to the Lakers again, the Lakers will surpass them. Even if the two teams in the county have the same record in the future, due to the original difficulties of the victory or defeat, the Supersonics will still rank behind the opponent.
