199. The crucial battle!_2

On the Bobcats' side, Okafor had a good reputation, and both Gerald Wallace and Felton were enthusiastic and cheerful.

Zhang Yang, Felton, and Rasheed Wallace were all alumni.

With so many connections between the two teams, after several confrontations, many players had already formed good personal relationships with their opponents.

The nickname 'New Bad Boys Legion' for the Bobcats also made players from both teams inherently feel closer.

When Bobcats players were asked about this nickname by reporters, they expressed respect for the 'Old Bad Boys Legion', calling them 'one of the greatest teams'.

Even Jordan said in an interview that the 'Old Bad Boys Legion' was one of the two toughest opponents he had encountered in his career.

The other, of course... was not the Jazz Team but the Celtics.

The only apparent contradiction was between Little Duncan and the Lord.

Rasheed Wallace greeted Okafor warmly but was ignored, which made the Lord express his anger with an emoticon.
