Chapter 351: Paul – George, Did You See It?

Although Zhang Feng doesn't like to distract his opponents by trash-talking like Garnett and Larry Bird, he can't help but flirt with a few words occasionally, especially when he bumps into a topic person.

For example, the former Lonzo Ball, the current Donovan Mitchell, and Zhang Feng are all more or less connected with them because of LeBron.

I thought it was unintentional, but I said it, Donovan wouldn't take it to heart, but in the end, it was a provocation, Donovan's face suddenly became very ugly, his eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire, and he almost couldn't help but push.

Donovan was angry, the consequences were serious, and when it was the Jazz's turn to attack, he reached directly to Rubio to signal – for the ball!

After getting the ball, he didn't pretend to be heads-up, but continued to call Rubio to cooperate with the outside block, and Rubio naturally rushed towards Zhang Feng immediately.

After the pick-and-roll, Donovan faced off against George Hill.

A big reason why George Hill didn't sign with the Jazz last summer was because the Jazz drafted Donovan in the draft, and the Jazz backcourt also had a Rubio, so his existence was not necessary, so naturally he was not signed.

It seems redundant in Jazz, and it is redundant in King, who is to blame? No one can blame it, but only their own lack of strength.

Thinking of this, George Hill was also very angry, and his hand movements were even more ruthless than the defense against Rubio just now.

As soon as Hill was ruthless, Donovan was very uncomfortable, and he could only adjust his strategy to get rid of Hill by stepping back, but he stepped back to the three-point line, and Hill put it in his face.

If it were an ordinary person, he might have passed the ball at this time, but after all, Donovan is the 'young king' who LeBron personally gave the 'title', and he will never admit it.

Stepping back again, pulling the ball in front of him and accelerating one step, Donovan passed Hill directly, and the Jazz fans at home cheered excitedly.

When it came to the inside line, Donovan immediately stopped pulling out, and Willy stepped forward to block and couldn't score, scoring 2 points.

"I'm the young king, how's that? Comments? Donovan turned back to Zhang Feng to demonstrate.

"Yes, yes, it's awesome!" Zhang Feng gave a thumbs up.

To be reasonable, Donovan's breakthrough combines speed and courage, and it really can't be done by an average defender.

Turning back to the king's attack, Hill brought the ball to the front court with a face full of anger, Zhang Feng and Randolph took the initiative to run inside and outside to cooperate, and after the misalignment, Zhang Feng stood on the inside again.

Of course, the Jazz are still chasing Sefrosa, and this time he learned a lesson, no matter how Zhang Feng feints, he will no longer easily jump and block.

But the story of the wolf has long proved that there are too many fake things, and even he will believe that after Zhang Feng made two consecutive feints, he really jumped up and shot.

scored, 2 points, the NBA's assist rules are much more relaxed than FIBA's, even if Zhang Feng made 3 feints, it is still counted as Hill's one assist.

Although Sefrosa did not defend, he did not hesitate, stood directly on the baseline to serve, and instantly formed a fast attack, and in less than a second, Rubio passed the ball through the half court.

After halftime, Donovan asked for the ball again, but this time it was a fast attack, he didn't have time to call for a block, and inadvertently, the two formed a one-on-one heads-up.

Faced with this situation, Donovan frowned, he not only heard of Zhang Feng's single defense, but also watched many videos of Zhang Feng's single defense, not to mention a scoring guard, Zhang Feng can even be a small forward with explosive physical fitness like Kawaii and LeBron.

That's why he directly asked Rubio to block and cover last time he attacked, and now his speed, strength, and height can't be compared, so he can only slow down and reorganize the attack.

But it was useless for him to think so, the fans at the Jazz home stadium were still immersed in the wonderful breakthrough he had just made, and when they saw the two of them one-on-one, they all stood up and shouted heads-up.

Embarrassed, retreating and losing face, not retreating and losing wind, Donovan is in a dilemma.

But the shouts of the fans did not stop, there was no way, Donovan could only bite the bullet and start dribbling under his crotch to find a rhythm.

After several failed attempts, Donovan and Zhang Feng were already standing on the left wing, and the rest of the players of the two teams had also been successfully positioned, and the positional battle had been formed.

Seeing that Donovan's dribbling action slowed down, Zhang Feng immediately became alert, as an offensive player, he naturally knew that Donovan would either accelerate the breakthrough or pass the ball next.

But Duo was singled out just now, Donovan had tried many times, but he had no chance to break through at all, and no one came to block him at this time, so he could only pass.

Since it was a pass, Zhang Feng directly gave up marking the ball and instead focused his gaze on Donovan's right shoulder.

The anti-pass cannot follow the opponent's ball, nor can it follow the opponent's eyes, because the hands and eyes are very easy to form feints, and only the shoulders need to exert force to make continuous movements.

Sure enough, Donovan's eyes looked to the left, but the ball in his hand was towards the right, but his right shoulder was upward, and it was obvious that Donovan wanted to hang the pass inside.

Zhang Feng pretended to be fooled and stretched out his right hand to intercept, and waited until Donovan's action was completed before jumping suddenly, he opened his hands wide and directly blocked the pass alive.

It is said that being covered, Donovan should have turned around and pursued it as soon as possible, but unfortunately he had fallen into a daze, he really didn't expect that the well-planned pass would be easily covered.

If it was just one block, it would have been forgotten, but he first 'admitted' that the heads-up was not as good as Zhang Feng, and he lost face twice in a row, and the Jazz fans in the audience had fallen silent.

But that's not the worst, because Zhang Feng also completed a fast-break dunk after a block and steal, and he completely became the first in today's top ten balls – background.

"Young King, give you a piece of advice, don't pay attention to the advice of the fans" Zhang Feng dunked back, and after Donovan passed by, he didn't forget to taunt, and Donovan was angry.

After being humiliated continuously, Donovan was almost on the verge of exploding, but fortunately, there was still a lot of time to regain face shortly after the start of the game.

Easy side offense, Donovan forced to calm down and let Rubio handle the ball, he himself took Zhang Feng around the baseline, after a few passes of the ball, Sefrosa found an open opportunity to shoot, 2-point hit.

The Kings and Jazz are both guard-led teams, averaging less than 7 seconds per round, and until the first official timeout, the score of the two teams has reached 24:20, and the Kings are ahead.

If it was placed in the past, three-quarters of the 24 points of the King must have been scored by Zhang Feng alone, but today the situation is completely different, Zhang Feng only shot 4 times, and even once was a block steal dunk, and the remaining 16 points were scored by Bogdan, Willy, Hill, and Randolph, and the number of assists for the Kings team reached a terrible 10.

What is the concept of 10 assists in 5 minutes? If you do the math, you can get an average of an assist every 30 seconds, which shows that the Kings share the ball very much.

On the other hand, 12 of the 20 points were scored by Donovan relying on the pick-and-roll break, and the remaining 8 points were scored by Sefrosa who desperately ran on the inside.

After the timeout, the two teams resumed the game, perhaps the Jazz head coach made tactical adjustments, Donovan and Sefrosa began to cover on the outside, and their offensive focus was on the inside.

The Jazz's two interior Zhang Feng didn't know each other, and after a defensive loss, he motioned for Randolph to serve later.

"What are their centers and power forwards called?"

Randolph was stunned when he heard Zhang Feng's question, and then replied: "Derek Favors and Ingles, what's wrong?" Why do you ask this? ”。

In the end, Randolph is a veteran player and knows a lot of people, and Zhang Feng is not entangled: "If they continue to pull space on the inside, you and Willy will carry out a pinch attack and not give them a chance"

"Can ......"

Before Randolph could finish speaking, the referee blew the whistle and shouted: "If I don't serve again, I'll blow a technical foul."

Hearing this, Randolph hurriedly served, Zhang Feng received the ball and went straight to the frontcourt, crossed the middle line, and passed to Hill, turned around and cut the inside line, relying on Willy's wall to block, and successfully ran out of space.

This set of tactics, since the start of the game, Zhang Feng has been used many times, the Jazz can't defend against it, this time Zhang Feng came again, DeVos was obviously angry, and without waiting for Sefrosa to change his defense, he gave up Randolph and leaned towards Zhang Feng.

But in this way, Randolph was let go, although Donovan was able to interfere, but after all, in the elbow area, the big man could directly use the physical advantage to crush the small man.

Hill saw the opportunity at the first moment, and the ball was quickly passed into Randolph's hands. Randolph didn't hesitate to take the ball, and immediately hit it with his back, and Donovan couldn't resist it at all.

The Jazz coach off the court was angry with DeVos's behavior, Donovan was also miserable, in less than a second, Randolph rushed all the way to the inside line with a bulldozer-like crush, and at this time DeVos was taken to the right short corner area by Zhang Feng, Ingles was also involved in Willy on the left bottom line, the Jazz basket was empty, and Randolph easily turned around and dunked.

It was another assist, and the Kings' assist count increased to 11.

DeVos knew that he was wrong, buried his head and went to the baseline to serve, but the Jazz head coach chased all the way from the sidelines to the baseline and kept yelling at him: "Devos, DeVos, DeVos".

Probably because in public, the Jazz head coach is really not good at swearing, so he can only keep shouting his name to express his anger.

The Jazz attacked, the Ruby Olympics ball passed the halfcourt, Donovan and Sefrosa crossed to cover the cross, and the six players of the two teams were concentrated at the three-point line, which was extremely crowded for a while.

In contrast, the inside line is empty, there are only two people under the basket, DeVos and Randolph, although Randolph has not relayed what Zhang Feng just said to Willy, but a team has cooperated for so long, Randolph has a look, and Willy understands.

Without waiting for Rubio to pass the ball, Randolph and Willy rushed up to wrap the ball, and Rubio instantly fell into a surroundment, and all the people intercepted the ball in front and back, left and right, and it was hopeless to pass the ball.

Three seconds later, the referee blew the whistle and signaled for the scrum.

There is nothing wrong with scrums, but who is fighting with whom is more critical, the Jazz are naturally Rubio, and who is on the Kings' side? Players on both sides were focused on the referee's hands.

"Zhang Feng, Rubio, scrum" The referee hesitated and made a decision.

As soon as the referee's gesture came out, Jazz fans sighed, there was no way, Zhang Feng's bounce height and bounce speed are famous in the league, and Rubio is a floor stream that is easy to cover even layups, and the result is clear at a glance.

It is said that Zhang Feng should be happy at this time, but if he looks closely, he is anxiously making faces at Jordan-Hill and Bogdan, obviously explaining something.

Sure enough, Zhang Feng easily won the jump ball, but the strange thing is that as soon as the referee threw the ball, Hill and Bogdan had already rushed towards the basket.

Confident, that's how it hangs, the two of them fully trust Zhang Feng to win the scrum. By the time the Jazz players reacted, both of them had already rushed to the basket, followed by Zhang Feng's long pass.

Easy goal, the number of Kings assists increased by one again.

First, he used a sudden bag to break the outside rotation tactics, and then ran ahead of time to catch him off guard, and the tactics and strategies were completely exploded, and the Jazz head coach paced back and forth on the sidelines, as if he was going to smash the floor.

There is no way to be angry, but to find a way to execute the tactics more perfectly, otherwise there is no fight at all.

The Jazz increased their protection of the ball on the subsequent offense. If you want to protect the ball, the speed will slow down, and as soon as the speed slows down, the strategy of rapid rotation on the outside line will no longer apply, and you can only grind the position with the king.

The efficiency of the positional battle was not bad, but it was very laborious to score each goal, either forcing a shot in the last few seconds to hit the shot by luck, or it was only seven or eight back and forth passes to find a chance to score.

There is no problem in playing like this, but everything is afraid of comparison, Jazz fought hard to score 2 points, and the king easily scored by running to create a misalignment advantage in the blink of an eye.

After the first quarter, the Kings scored 40 points, the team had 18 assists, and all the players were full of joy, while the Jazz only scored 31 points, and all the players were unwilling and depressed on their faces.

During the intermission, the Jazz head coach spoke for 1 minute in a row, but 20 seconds were spent on Spray Vos, and 40 seconds were spent spraying the Jazz team to work harder.

Ordinary coaches will definitely not do this, but the Jazz coach has always been known for being 'ruthless', and his 'death kick' resounded throughout the league, and none of the Jazz players dared to disagree, and only in this way can the Jazz team defeat the strong team many times with the weak, which is their magic weapon to win.

Unfortunately, the Kings were determined to get a big win today, everyone shared the ball selflessly, and they didn't shoot when they didn't have the best chance, so the imposing Jazz still didn't see any hope of winning in the second quarter.

At halftime, Zhang Feng was about to go back to the locker room to rest, but the TNT reporter caught up, and even though the Kings staff blocked him, the reporter kept shouting at Zhang Feng for an interview.

I was going to ignore it, because I didn't arrange an interview in advance, but Zhang Feng vaguely heard the reporter say:

"Paul George answered your words......"

"Then you can ask questions" Zhang Feng stopped and signaled to the king's staff that it didn't matter.

"Paul George also said that he wanted to be teammates with players like you, but fate has not arrived, and I will talk about it later".

How could anyone not be interested in responding like this? Since Paul George said this, he must have moved his mind, Zhang Feng hurriedly took the reporter's microphone and said, "Paul, did you see it? We had 32 assists in the half."
