Chapter 19: The Leader
"Okay, since you're willing to be quiet, then listen to me."
Yi Feng was very satisfied with the effect of this shot, which immediately shocked many stupid big people who were about to move, and established his unquestionable authority. This will be very beneficial for him to set up on the field later on.
"There are a lot of people in the white team who don't want to win this match," he said. Since you don't want to win, don't waste your precious chances. ”
"Maybe you will think that if you change for others, the strength of our white team is far worse than that of the red team! Whoever goes on loses! ”
"Maybe you think that the difference in strength between you and the red team is innate, and you can't catch up no matter how hard you try. Therefore, you are willing to fall into depour, do not seek to be motivated, and naturally accept the reality that you are inferior to others. ”
"But what I want to tell you is that there are always those who are not willing to be left behind. Just because you're willing to admit it doesn't mean they'll be like you! ”
"Of course, that's what I am. And among you, there are those who are like that. I know. We were more than 20 points behind in the first half, but there was still time, would you like to play with me and beat those unbeatable talents? ”
After Yi Feng finished speaking, he glanced at some of the benches, some of them were obviously a little moved, but when they saw that no one came forward, they immediately shrank back.
Seeing this, Yi Feng continued: "I think that all the way in your elementary and middle schools, there are those geniuses around you who have stolen all the attention. They are all also playing basketball, why is everyone's attention only on those geniuses? ”
"Are we not trying hard enough? Or are we not serious enough? ”
"No, we have to work ten times harder than those geniuses, ten times more serious than them. But it's such a tenfold effort, but it still can't get back the respect it deserves! ”
"Why?"
"Have you ever thought about it, why is that?"
"We've tried so hard, why can't we get even a little bit of success? Is it true that we exist to foil those geniuses? ”
"So there are two rounds of drafts in the league, and the second-round draft can also enter the league, just to put those first-round talents at the bottom of the league, just to set off their tallness?"
"But are we convinced? Why can geniuses stand in the center of all people and enjoy worship! Why do we put in 10 times and 100 times the effort, but get only a little bit of pity? ”
"In that case, why aren't we geniuses! At least we can work tenfold and hundredfold and still not be defeated, at least we are real geniuses in this area! ”
"If it's a genius, why do we lose? Why should I be left behind? ”
"From today on, from now on, we are going to defeat those geniuses and reclaim what they have robbed them of for years! We should be confident that we can replace them as the first-round pick! ”
"We, after hard work, are truly qualified to stand above 10,000 people!"
"Now, then, those who want to change their fate, stand up and fight with me!"
On the bench, one by one, stood up. They are all people who do not succumb to fate and dare to show their swords.
But alas, there are not many such people.
More people regard Yi Feng's speech as a speech slogan for moaning without illness. Maybe they had a needle prick in their hearts, but when they remembered their school days, the fear of being dominated and dominated by geniuses on the court, the flame that ignited in their hearts was extinguished.
Yi Feng doesn't need such a cowardly teammate. And the 4 people who are standing up now are enough.
As a result, the starting five in the second half: Yi Feng, Booker, Anthony Brown (F), Larry Nance II (F), Porzingis. In this lineup, there is no real point guard, although Booker is a point guard, he is a point guard, so he is a cameo point guard.
On the red side, except for Russell, the starting four of the first half were all changed: Rashad Vaughn (G), Justis Winslow (F), Trey Lyles (F), Myles Turner (C).
As the absolute protagonist of today's match, it is understandable that Russell has so much playing time. And Yi Feng's re-entry also made Russell excited. He knew that the opportunity to prove himself had really come.
Out of fear of Yi Feng's combat effectiveness, the rookies of the white team did not dare to have any dissatisfaction with any arrangement of Yi Feng.
Before the start of the second half, Yi Feng called Booker and the other four over for a pre-formation meeting.
"The red team has a lead of so many points, so I guess they will play very openly, the defense will drop, but the attack will be more comfortable. This is our opportunity and our test. ”
"We mainly play defensive counter-attacks, and the opponent's tactics, if nothing else, are mostly individual singles. At this time, we must resolutely wrap up. At the same time, others pay attention to the defense of the passing route. If you can break the ball, then immediately chase them and counterattack. If they make a shot, take care to protect the backcourt rebound. Take the rebound, pass the ball immediately, and focus on the speed of the counterattack! ”
"If it falls into a positional battle, then I will play alone with the ball first. You try to get rid of the defenders as much as you can and get into your favorite shooting area. That's when I'll pass the ball. ”
"It would be better if they had wrapped me up. I'm sure you'll be able to throw in the damn open space and shoot. ”
"Of course, there will be some small coordination of blocking and pick-and-roll, if you don't have the ability to shoot, you can go to the basket after dismantling, and if you have the ability to shoot, you can go up and down, or stay where you are."
'We have to get the ball moving, pass the ball a few more times and get gaps. If the opportunity arises, don't hesitate to make a decisive move! ”
——————
Yi Feng's performance was clearly seen by the people in the stands. Even because the stadium was too quiet, they could even hear Yi Feng's words clearly.
Yi Feng's leadership temperament is fully revealed.
He can even be called an orator. The ability to inspire is fantastic!
Luo Tianrui and other Chinese media people were extremely surprised, but they did not expect that Yi Feng did not have the humility unique to the Chinese at all, domineering and exposed, and full of sharpness in every word and deed.
This is the leadership temperament of the leading brother, and this is the temperament of the team boss!
The American media, on the other hand, were both excited and unhappy.
Originally, the news that Chinese rookies beat people in the training camp can be extremely black on Yi Feng, and even rise to the quality of the population, and it is completely okay to hack the Chinese at such a high level as the national quality.
However, the temperament and leadership that Yi Feng has shown now are undoubtedly throwing off Russell's eighteen streets. While this may seem like a kind of leadership based on brutality and force, who can deny his inspiring, blood-pumping impromptu speech?
Damn it! How can a yellow person have such a domineering and sharp character.
This contradiction in many media in the United States is not too serious, in contrast, it is the team managers who are more entangled.
They had originally made up their minds to give up Yi Feng, a "thug", but now Yi Feng's leadership ability was higher than they thought before, so high that they were tempted again.
However, he is a "thug" after all, and after selecting him, he has to bear the risk of not only performing badly on the court, but also the risk of him hurting people off the field.
Scouting is much simpler than those who have too many financial interests involved.
Regarding Yi Feng's every move just now, in fact, most scouts have an appreciative view.
Although he is despised by many people for gaining the right to speak through violence, it is undeniable that he is simple and effective. And relying on the force of one person can subdue so many big men with strong bodies, this kind of violence is not something that ordinary people can have.
With the right to speak, it is also a problem to use it in this way. Without strong leadership skills, you can't really lead the players to perform at their level.
Giles Taylor kept nodding, this Chinese rookie really surprised him. He has his own judgment, and he believes that the Chinese rookie is not a short-tempered person.
It seems that the recommendation he submitted to the Lakers before was not strong enough!
If the Lakers can take him and try their best to cultivate him, there will be another superstar!
And this beating incident may be a good thing for the Lakers. Many teams don't dare to ask for such a "thug", and the Lakers can get him more easily!
At that time, the glory of the Zijin nobles will be renewed!

"Beep!"
The referee blew the whistle for the second half, and the red and white teams started in the second half.
Porzingis jumped again in the second half, relying on the advantage of height and arm length, to win the first offensive opportunity of the second half for the white team.
Booker dribbled across half court and found Yi Feng.
Yi Feng motioned for his teammates to run, and by the way, he could also lead away defenders and open up space for singles.
Yi Feng estimated that if he didn't use his attack power, it would be difficult for his teammates to get a good chance.
Standing in front of Yi Feng's eyes is Rashad Vaughn, who has a standard scoring guard build, 198CM tall and weighs 95KG.
Vaughn is physically and scored, and he is ranked No. 9 in the ESPN2014 National High School Rankings. Because after playing a few games in his freshman year, he was injured and couldn't fully show himself to the whole country. Therefore, the draft market is not good, and it is better to only be at the bottom of the lotto area.
He's a player with more quality than fame.
However, he also has the common problems of talented players, weak defense and offense, and a lack of willingness to defend.
The white team is now in the stage of chasing the wind, so Yi Feng has to fight quickly.
He is not verbose, and eats directly by his body.
Two simple realizations, with super explosiveness, the first step was to pass Vaughn, and then easily scored a layup.
If Vaughn defends seriously, with his physical condition, Yi Feng will not be so easy to break through. And the enthusiasm of the red team's interior players to assist in defense is not enough, and Yi Feng is easy to make a layup.
Yi Feng is now in the stage of secretly chasing the wind. Score quickly, but don't let your opponent notice the score is approaching quickly. So he didn't play fancy dunks, so he could also save energy.
This kind of body flow play, Yi Feng has not used it for a long time. When he went to college, he gradually figured out the importance of rhythm and used it. Many times, he is no longer a bully relying on his physical gifts.
But now, he needs to chase back the score, so he can only buy time violently like this.
The red team really didn't notice the intentions of the white team, they thought it was just Yi Feng venting his frustration in the first half. So how they should fight, or how to fight.
still according to the strategy of the first half, starting from Russell, one by one took turns to play singles.
Russell had good numbers in the first half, playing 13 minutes, scoring 20 points on 7-of-12 shooting, 2-of-4 three-pointers, 4-of-5 free throws, and also had two rebounds, four assists and one steal, as well as three turnovers.
Except for Russell, who was alone with the ball, the other four players on the red team did not run on the court, and they all watched Russell perform.
It feels like it's out of the way.
So Yi Feng was relieved to be bold in the past, and he wrapped Russell with Booker.
Russell has a good sense of the ball, so he shoots and dribbles well. But he's taller and has a higher center of gravity than the average point guard, making him more likely to get steals when caught in a bag.
The two people in the bag are both taller than him, and his passing vision is greatly affected. Facing Booker and Yi Feng's bag, although he did not panic, he knew that if he didn't pass the ball again, he would be cut off, and when he couldn't see his teammates, he jumped up and passed the ball with his previous impression.
The position of his teammate did not deviate from his impression. But when he passed the ball, he found that it was not good.
He wanted to pass the ball to Vaughn, who was let go by the wind, but ignored Anthony Brown's constant threat to his passing route. It wasn't until he got the ball out of his hand that he spotted Brown who was quickly appearing in the passing lane.
Oops!
Russell realized that something was wrong, and hurried back to defend after landing.
However, at the same time as him, Booker and Yi Feng also started!
After the next second, the difference in physical fitness was reflected, and among the three people who started at the same time, Yi Feng was already one position ahead, Booker was close behind, and Russell was behind.
When Brown got the ball, he yelled "Run!" At the same time, the basketball in his hand was also thrown towards the front court.
His passing was not good, he drifted too fast, but after two steps, Yi Feng reached the extreme speed, shook off Booker and Russell, and received the ball near the free throw line.
Yi Feng catches the ball and takes three steps directly, jumps into the air, and is a simple and neat one-handed split.
