Chapter 237: Peja Speaks

Peja was surrounded by the most reporters, and the other five, including Ye Feng, were much more deserted.

With just a few questions, Ye Feng's interview ended.

Ye Feng was also happy to be idle, sitting on the sidelines to adjust his state, and chatting with James and Boozer, who came to cheer.

And Peja and his group of reporters were right in front of Ye Feng.

There was a compliment around Peja, congratulating Peja in advance on winning the championship, and Peja didn't feel anything wrong at all, but accepted it happily.

Ye Feng shook his head, he didn't take it seriously, he was not a nosy person.

As long as it doesn't involve himself, nor does it involve the bottom line and principles, Ye Feng can not care.

But journalists are by nature people who like to stir up trouble as a way to create selling points and write eye-catching news.

Ye Feng didn't provoke them, they just wanted to use Ye Feng as an excuse to create contradictions.

A reporter looked at Ye Feng, his eyes flashed, and asked Peja: "What do you think of this season's rookie Ye Feng, he has played 53 games this season, averaging 5.4 three-point shots per game, hitting 2.8 times, and the shooting rate is as high as 51.4%, ranking first in the three-point shooting percentage list." The guys who were able to hit this kind of percentage before were called Steve Kerr and Tim Legler, and it was almost 10 years ago. Many people say that he is the biggest obstacle to your title defense this time! ”

Steve Kerr played in 82 games in the '96-'97 season, with a 72-10 record, averaging 2.9 three-pointers per game, hitting 1.5 of them, a whopping 51.5 percent shooting.

Tim Legler played in 77 games in the '95-'96 season, 38-39, averaging 3.2 three-pointers per game, hitting 1.7 of them and shooting 52.2 percent from the field.

It's only two times in NBA history that he has appeared in more than 50 games, averaged more than 2.5 three-point attempts per game, and shot more than 50 percent of the shots.

Ye Feng is the third person who can do it.

It's not a difficult question, and even some experienced players can easily deal with it.

"Well, Ye did a good job and put a lot of pressure on me, but I believe I can do better."

Such an answer is humble and confident, and it can be said to be the standard answer.

But Peja didn't.

"Steve Cole? Tim Leegler? I'm sorry, I don't know who they are at all. Can they also average 25 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists per game? Or is it just a pure three-point shooter? ”

"As for Ye Feng, I know that this kid is playing well. But that's all, this is only his first season, and he shoots good three-pointers. But the three-point shot is a very volatile technique, and who knows if he won't perform like this in the future. ”

"Maybe in another five years, he will be able to compare with me. But now, he's still far from it! ”

Peja said unashamedly, not taking Cole, Tim, and Ye Feng seriously at all.

The reporter who asked the question was overjoyed, he was just trying it out, and he didn't have much hope.

It was a surprise to receive such an answer.

This kind of statement is simply a fuse, an explosive fuse, which can trigger a war of words at will, and it is really worth it today.

But Ye Feng's teammates James and Boozer couldn't be happy, they simply didn't take Ye Feng in their eyes, let alone famous names like Cole and Tim. Even if you're a famous football star, you can't be so crazy, right?

James and Boozer were so angry that they even planned to reason with Peja.

Ye Feng shook his head at them, there was no point in arguing.

Although his brain was very rational, Ye Feng was still very uncomfortable in his heart, and his brows furrowed deeply.

At this time, Peja is indeed too crazy.

Webb's absence this year has allowed him to usher in a big explosion of statistics, coupled with the honor of the month and being in the MVP candidate queue, Peja has swelled, or rather exposed his true nature.

In fact, looking down on a rookie like Ye Feng is nothing to Peja.

What he did the most was to unite Divac to fight for power and seize the team boss.

Everyone knows that Webb is the soul of the Kings in the new century, one of the four big forwards in the league.

And Peja, in order to win the team boss, completely disregarded Webb's face, had no respect, and slandered Webb in front of the media again and again.

Later, Webb left the 76ers, completely because the contradiction between the two was irreconcilable.

Ironically, Webb is gone, and Peja still doesn't think he's the boss.

The core of the king became the "White Devil" Bibbe.

So, Peja began to fight against Bibi again.

What's even more ironic is that this time without Divac's support, Peja didn't even fight Bibi.

When the Kings couldn't take it anymore, they finally cleared Peja out and replaced Artest with the Pacers.

But Peja's destructive power didn't go away, because of his misdeeds in those years, regardless of the team's cancerous behavior, the most glamorous Kings team in NBA history disappeared in a matter of years.

The team's six main players, Webb, Bibby, Divac, Miller, Christie, and Peja, have left or been traded, and the best memories of Sacramento fans have become a nightmare.

Thinking of these things, Ye Feng looked at Peja's eyes and gradually became unkind.

"Today, I'll win the championship!"

Ye Feng whispered to James and Boozer.

James and Boozer were stunned for a moment, then nodded as a matter of course.

Ye Feng is a person who rarely makes promises, but as long as he promises, he will definitely do it.

They are convinced of this.

Soon, the three-point contest officially began.

The first to play was the Rockets' "old cat" Catino Mobley, who shot 39% from three-point range this season.

Mobley had a very bad hand today, scoring only 9 points in the first three points.

The fourth point was even worse, and he only scored 1 point by throwing a normal ball.

In the fifth point, Mobley also scored only 3 points.

Mobley scored a total of 13 points, and such a result must not be able to enter the second round, and he shook his head helplessly.

The second player was Chauncey Billups of the Pistons, who shot 38.8 percent from three-point range this season.

However, Billups turned out to be worse than Mobley, scoring only 12 points, which was a real surprise to fans.

Could it be that the players are not in good shape today?

The third player was the Nuggets' Werchan Leonard, who shot 36.7 percent from three-point range this season.

Leonard played well on the first point, conceding only one normal shot and scoring five points.

After three points, Leonard scored 12 points, much better than Mobley and Billups.

In the last two points, Leonard was also very consistent, scoring a total of 6 points.

With a total score of 18 points, Leonard is temporarily in first place.

The fourth player is SuperSonic's Rashad Lewis, who is shooting 37.6 percent from three-point range this season.

Lewis had a mediocre performance, scoring 16 points.

The fifth to appear should be Ye Feng, but for some reason, the league actually arranged for the defending champion Peja to play first.

Peja had a mediocre first point and scored three points.

But in the next few points, he played bravely, hit every shot, and scored a total of 18 points in the last four points.

A total of 21 points, a very impressive result.

By this point, Peja was first with 21 points, Leonard was second with 18 and Lewis was third with 16.

As long as Ye Feng scores 17 points, he can successfully enter the finals.
