I'm the Warriors' Benchwarmer, and I Have LeBron's Number

“Who says LeBron is the Chosen One? To me, he’s nothing but a stepping stone on my path to the throne!”

After transmigrating into a fringe player on the 2014 Golden State Warriors, Lin Yifeng is on the verge of being cut. At a team meeting, he publicly pushes back against the coach’s praise of James, unexpectedly activating the LeBron Hater System!

[Ding! The Host’s intense ‘LeBron-hating’ emotions have been detected. System activated!]

[Beginner mission: Block ‘Little LeBron’ Barnes in a scrimmage. Reward: ‘Death Grip’ defensive experience card!]

And so, a basketball demon born to crush LeBron comes into being!

Curry: “Lin Yifeng’s defense reminds me of Tony Allen. No, he’s even better than Tony!”

Kerr: “I thought he was just a troublemaker. I never expected him to be the final piece of our dynasty!”

As Lin Yifeng leads the Warriors to defeat LeBron’s teams in the Finals time and time again, fans around the world go wild: “That man isn’t the GOAT. Lin Yifeng is! He’s shattered the Emperor’s crown!”

Standing atop the winners’ podium, Lin Yifeng faces the cameras and has just one thing to say: “LeBron’s era? Sorry, this is my era now!”
