Chapter 203: Inside Competition

This was the first time this season that the MVP cry sounded at Golden Arena, and although Zhang Feng was only a rookie player, he still didn't react, and after seeing the referee confirm the 2 points, he walked up to Holiday again.

This series of reactions was very handsome and cold, like a desperate warrior, and the photographer at the scene decided to focus the camera on Zhang Feng and give him a close-up of his face.

Zhang Feng's expression instantly appeared on the big screen in the center of the court, and everyone began to observe carefully under curiosity, and found that not only did he not have a smile on his face, but he couldn't even see a trace of relaxation, but it couldn't be said to be nervous, in short, it was indescribable.

It stands to reason that he should be very excited to perform so well, but Zhang Feng's reaction made the Kings' teammates puzzled, and even An Jiali, who was sitting on the sidelines, was puzzled, she and Zhang Feng had been together for so long, and they had never seen him look like this.

"I have been playing NBA for 19 years, and I have been a basketball commentator for 6 years, and in my 25 years of basketball-related career, I have seen Zhang Feng's expression many times, and his expression indicates that the Kings will win today."

In the TNT live broadcast room, O'Neill was sitting in a precarious position and said this sentence seriously.

O'Neill was so formal, and Barkley asked sincerely, "Why did you come to this conclusion?" ”

"The expression of James with his hands on his knees in Game 6 of the 12 Eastern Conference Finals, the expression of Kobe Bryant breaking through Pierce and Rasheed Wallace in the 10 Finals, and the expression of Jordan stealing Karl Malone before the last shot in the 98 Finals are all the same as Zhang Feng's current expression, they only have victory in their hearts"

"But the three players you mentioned were all like that at the end of the game, this is only the first quarter, is Zhang Feng going to be so ruthless?" For the first time, Barkley didn't use a questioning tone.

"It depends on how much his heart desires this victory, or how eager he is to defend his dignity, and now it seems that he desperately desires".

The word extreme is different from the analogues of very, very, and quite, and its degree is much stronger, and this word fully reflects Zhang Feng's inner feelings at the moment, he not only wants to win the game, but also wants to defeat the opponent's strongest point to win the game.

So as soon as he started the game, he went all out to chase Holiday and force thick eyebrows, and stick to Holiday to defend Holiday with the purpose of shifting the Pelicans' offensive and defensive focus to the interior, even if it was easier to deal with the Pelicans on the outside.

8-0, a little annoying but not very painful point difference, considering that the Pelicans head coach did not call a timeout just after the opening, he hoped that Holiday would give the ball to the interior later, and not fight against Zhang Feng again.

Holiday was also hesitating at this time, if the ball was given to the inside, he would be instigated, but if he still couldn't play, it would become a joke, and he needed to make a choice between becoming a joke and becoming a joke.

Under Zhang Feng's interference, Holiday irritably brought the ball to the frontcourt, which made him quickly make a choice and directly hoisted the ball to Cousins, although he was cowardly, he didn't want to be tired to death and be treated as a joke.

As soon as Cousins got the ball, the Kings fans began to applaud as their encouragement to Cousins.

But Willie doesn't think so, in his opinion, the applause of the fans is a dissatisfaction with himself, otherwise why would he miss a player who is not his home team?

Cousins picked up the ball outside the three-second zone on the baseline, and he expertly leaned straight to Willy. With the blow of the shoulder, Willy was pushed straight back a big step, Cousins took the opportunity to dribble to the basket, and he hit a hook shot with a left-footed jump.

Although this ball is played beautifully, it is not very powerful, it is completely crushed by personal strength, Cousins relied on absolute strength to squeeze Willy out of the defensive range, this is the difference in the strength of the players, and it is not Willy's crime of improper defense.

The Kings fans began to applaud again, Cousins raised his hand and smiled, and Willy looked ugly and embarrassed.

Looking at Willy, who silently walked to the bottom line to serve, Zhang Feng walked up, and when he received the ball, he said: "Wait a while, I'm going to break through the inside line of this ball, and you are ready to catch the ball and dunk it."

Willy, who was originally depressed, immediately became energetic when he heard the news, and he had already begun to imagine the surprised eyes of everyone after the violent buckle.

As soon as Willie landed outside the three-second zone, he saw Zhang Feng rush up, first feint past Holiday and then bypass Dent, and have already gone straight to the inside.

Willie could see that Cousins next to him was hesitating to go up to help defend, Zhang Feng had already reached the basket, and if he didn't make a move, he would have no chance, so he retreated and flashed to the side, leaving Zhang Feng with a passing route.

At this time, Zhang Feng had already jumped, and when he found that Cousins had also moved, he passed the ball directly to Willie, who glimpsed through the afterglow, and Willy took the ball to dunk violently, and also caused a foul on thick eyebrows to make up for the defense, and added a penalty.

With perfect coordination, Willy excitedly stepped forward to celebrate with Zhang Feng's chest.

Cousins made a spit motion disdainfully, and he made no secret of his contempt for Willy, because in his opinion, it was Zhang Feng who was powerful in this ball, and Willie did not have any capital to be excited.

Sure enough, after Willy finished serving, the Pelicans attacked, and Cousins easily hit Willie again, and Cousins kept shaking his head after playing, as if to say, "It's too easy."

In the next few rounds, the game developed in the same way, Zhang Feng broke through the Pelicans interior to score, pass, or frantically snatched the frontcourt rebound when his teammates couldn't score, almost ignoring the Pelicans inside Cousins and thick eyebrows.

But when he turned to the king's defense, he was frantically cut by Cousins and thick eyebrows like schoolboys.

It takes an average of 15 seconds for Zhang Feng to score a goal or help a teammate score a goal, and the Kings only need thick eyebrows and Cousins to catch the ball, hit the back, top people, and shoot to score 2 points. Although the king was still ahead, Zhang Feng's physical strength began to deplete rapidly.

Although the commentator at the scene has been emphasizing that Zhang Feng's physical strength is a hidden danger for the king, David is not worried at all, he is now more afraid of Willy's mentality collapsing, there is no one who can fight with the Pelicans on the inside, if Willie collapses, then the king's inside line will be completely finished.

Although both teams fouled more because of the strength of the Pelicans' interior and Zhang Feng's constant impact on the Pelicans' interior, both teams did not seem to have called a timeout tacitly, so the first quarter ended quickly, and the Kings led the Pelicans 32-24.

Zhang Feng participated in all of the Kings' offense, he scored 18 points and 6 assists, and Willy cut a good 6 points and 4 rebounds, which is almost exactly the same situation as Cousins and Thick Eyebrows scored 12 points each, and both teams scored inside.

"Feng, we should play more on the outside from the second quarter, this is our advantage, but I think you seem to be deliberately attacking the inside, can you tell you what the reason is?" During the timeout, David and the Kings discussed tactics.

"That's ......"
