The huge American Airlines Center arena was as silent as death.

The basketball lay alone on the floor, but no one picked it up.

Honk~

Half-ringing, it was Ilgoskas who reacted first, and then called a timeout.

As soon as the whistle sounded, the four people on the Cavaliers directly surrounded Ye Feng and protected him in the middle.

James even pushed Marbury away, who wanted to get closer.

"Team doctor! Doctor! Where's your TM's death? ”

Paul shouted anxiously.

Ten seconds ago, he just wanted to put Ye Feng on the bench.

But now, he is willing to let Ye Feng play for 48 minutes, as long as he is not injured, Paul can accept anything.

"Let's see what happened 10 seconds ago."

Marbury lifted the basketball and did not jump, but leisurely adjusted his shot.

And on his side, Ye Feng, who fell to the ground, quickly got up, supported the floor with one hand, kicked the floor with both legs, and flew directly from the side.

Then with a slap, the basketball fan that Marbury had just shot flew out.

And he himself slammed himself on the floor.

If Marbury didn't want to pretend to be forced, slowly adjust his shooting posture, and stand still without jumping and shooting, Ye Feng wouldn't be able to touch the ball even if he pounced.

But the fact is that Ye Feng really had to give Marbury a hot pot, or after being shaken down.

The Cavaliers team doctor carried a first-aid kit and quickly ran onto the court to check on Ye Feng's condition.

Ye Ni and her aunt Chrissy were also a little excited, and wanted to rush down, but were stopped by their uncle Ye Chengfang.

"Don't make a mess, the NBA team doctor is very professional, don't bother them!"

Ye Chengfang's tone was firm, but there was a deep worry in his eyes.

After a long while, Ye Feng sat up with the help of the team doctor.

Just now, because he went to fight the basketball with all his strength, without any protective action, Ye Feng was indeed miserably fallen, his body felt a little like he was about to fall apart, and his head was a little groggy.

However, after the team doctor examined, he said that Ye Feng was lucky and had no external injuries.

At this time, Marbury squeezed over again, but was blocked by James.

Marbury wasn't angry either, but couldn't help but ask, "Why did you do that just now?" ”

Ye Feng shook his groggy head and said with a smile: "Because that's the only way to stop your shot." ”

"Nope! I'm asking you, aren't you even afraid of getting hurt in order to stop my shots? ”

Marbury asked reluctantly.

"Afraid! Of course I'm afraid! ”

Ye Feng said frankly.

Injuries are an athlete's worst enemy, and no matter how good the talent is, sometimes it can't beat an injury. What athlete can not be afraid of injury?

"However, this is the first time I've played so early, and I don't want to go down so soon."

Ye Feng said what he thought at the time.

It was entirely because of Marbury's extremely abusive timekeeping game, Ye Feng was very angry in his heart and didn't want to end it very much. That's why they are desperate to save that ball.

At that time, Ye Feng didn't have a lot of ideas, he just wanted to stay on the field.

But when these words are heard in the ears of the people around them, they are not pure.

The 10 players on the field of the two teams, except for Ye Feng, 9 starters, looked at Ye Feng with different eyes.

Look at how desperate others are for playing time while we are enjoying our starting opportunities and a lot of playing time!

Marbury was also silent for a long time before suddenly saying, "From tonight onwards, I won't play that game again." ”

"But that doesn't mean you can stop me! Because, I am the number one point guard in the world! ”

Ye Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head, he really couldn't refute this.

Peak Marbury's ability is indeed not comparable to the current Ye Feng. I don't dare to say the first, but there is absolutely no criticism in the top three in the No. 1 position.

The problem is that Marbury is too proud, and then he has a bad relationship with the whole team and the head coach, so he will go downhill early and get the title of lone wolf.

In fact, a point guard who has averaged 8 assists per game for many years in a row can be so unique.

The reason why it is called a lone wolf is not because of Marbury's style of play, but because this guy's interpersonal relationships are always isolated by everyone on the team.

The Cavaliers team doctor advised Ye Feng to rest and not play in this game.

Head coach Paul naturally agreed, replacing Ye Feng and replacing McGinnis.

Before McGinnis appeared, he glanced at Ye Feng and whispered, "Boy, although I don't like you, I agree with your determination." ”

Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, and then smiled again.

If memory serves, this is the first time that McGinnis has had a friendly exchange with Ye Feng.

In the ensuing game, McGinnis changed his norm and defended very hard.

Unfortunately, Marbury is too strong to defend hard.

During the rotation, Paul asked Ye Feng, "Can you continue to play?" ”

"Of course, I'm working so hard, not to sit on the bench, but to play."

Ye Feng said.

In the NBA in 2003, the protection of players was not yet outrageous, and they were not allowed to play with any minor injury.

At that time, the pursuit of iron and blood, minor injuries could not get off the line of fire, and many players played with injuries.

Seeing that Ye Feng insisted, Paul did not stubbornly press Ye Feng on the bench and gave Ye Feng enough playing time.

When Ye Feng came on the stage for the second time, someone suddenly burst into applause.

Subsequently, one after another, there were thousands of people applauding Ye Feng.

Of course, the boos are louder than the applause, which is also unavoidable, after all, it is the home of the Suns, and outsiders are not good.

In the first three quarters of the game, the Cavaliers bit the score and even overtook it in the end.

At the end of the third quarter, the score was 72-73 and the Cavaliers led by one point.

But in the last quarter, Marbury and Smalls took turns to play and beat the Cavaliers in one fell swoop.

On the Cavaliers' side, Davis shot 0 of 4, James shot 1 of 3, and Boozer shot 1 of 3...... All were frozen.

At the end of the game, the score was 86-95, the Suns won, and the Cavaliers ushered in a two-game losing streak.

Full game,

Davis scored a team-high 22 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists on 9-of-25 shooting, but his offensive efficiency was very low, shooting only 36% from the field.

James finished with 21 points, 12 rebounds and eight assists on 8-of-17 shooting, but also had seven turnovers. Marion is really good, and so many of James' mistakes are forced by him.

Big Z is still in the doldrums, scoring only 14 points.

Boozer was also average, scoring 13 points.

Ye Feng shot 3 of 5, 3 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 9 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block.

On this side of the sun,

Xiao Si scored a game-high 25 points, 8 rebounds and 4 blocks.

Marbury had 24 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists.

Marion had 15 points and 11 rebounds.

Only 3 people scored double-doubles, but all 9 people who came out scored and no one hung zero.

The team lost again, and Paul was a little worried.

But the good news is that the Cavaliers' back-to-back is finally over, and the rest of the day is free to rest.

And Ye Feng also took a half-day leave and returned to Phoenix's home with his uncle.
