Stevens' doubts also plagued the TNT trio, as the game reached an official timeout at the end of the third quarter, the Kings didn't drop too many points, but they couldn't close the gap, and the Celtics were clearly in a relaxed state.

"To be honest, the chances of the King winning this game are already very small, Zhang Feng should train his organization more, so desperate defense and offense are not of much value", after saying this, Barkley tilted his head and asked O'Neal: "Shaq, what do you think?" ”。

"I can't guess what his intentions were, but I'm sure he did it with a purpose and a purpose, maybe to win the game or something else" O'Neal didn't hesitate to praise Zhang.

"Actually, what makes me even more strange is that you have noticed that Zhang Feng rarely grabs boards? He's got nine blocks and six steals so far today, but only two rebounds, so doesn't he want a triple-double? Kenny looked confused.

"Grabbing rebounds is always a matter for the frontcourt players, and the backcourt players are obsessed with getting a triple-double that doesn't help the team much, because those rebounds that guards can grab, centers and power forwards can grab, and Shaq should ...... this."

"That's exactly right, different positions take on different responsibilities, calling teammates to pack and help defend is what Zhang Feng should do, he can't float outside and shoot three-pointers like Cousins did at the beginning, that would be a great harm to the team" O'Neal has to hack Cousins every time.

"Anyway, I hope Zhang's strategy can bring some help to the Kings, and at the same time, I wish Zhang Feng can get 10 blocks" Kenny quickly changed the subject.

At present, in the history of the NBA, the most single-game blocks among the backcourt players is Maddy, he has won a record of 7 blocks in a single game, but Zhang Feng broke this record in the second quarter, but because it is not the highest number of blocks in a single game, this has not attracted the attention of fans, and now Kenny Smith mentioned this, fans are aware of Zhang Feng's defensive strength.

What's even more terrifying is that in the third quarter of the game, Zhang Feng also suddenly activated the defensive attributes of the whole team of the Kings, and the Kings players began to defend the Celtics players one by one like 'mad dogs'.

After the official timeout, Zhang Feng stayed on the court to rest, and he was replaced by Frank Mason, who sat on the cold bench for half court and was already dissatisfied - against the Celtics, of course.

Mason has no taboos as soon as he comes on the court, he is the No. 3 substitute in the point guard position, with George Hill and Zhang Feng in front, he can play any way, so his defensive action is particularly big, although he is soon late for fouls, but the damage to the Celtics is particularly great. He forced Irving's bench Smart to give the ball inside every time, and while the Celtics still scored, it was a two-point each time and a lot more difficult.

The same situation also appeared with Buddy Hield, who has played 2 games as a substitute after Bogdan's return from injury, and he needs to perform at this time, plus he is encouraged by Zhang Feng's words and behaviors, and he no longer hesitates to shoot at the fixed point, and he shoots the ball several times, even if the shooting rate is not high, it also puts a lot of pressure on the Celtics defense, forcing them to have to separate someone to watch Buddy.

On the inside, after Willy and Randolph went off, Papa made a rare appearance, and he and Costa formed a double-high lineup, and they used to defend around the front every time, causing a lot of trouble for the Celtics' two interior linemen, Daniel and Abdul.

AT THE SMALL FORWARD POSITION, SCAL USED HIS 211CM HEIGHT AND LIGHT WEIGHT TO RUN FLEXIBLY, FORCING SHEMI OLAIGER TO KEEP CHASING, SO THAT THE KING'S INTERIOR OFFENSIVE SPACE EXPANDED A LOT, AND IT WAS EASIER FOR OUTSIDE PLAYERS TO BREAK THROUGH THE BALL.

The Kings' bench players seem to have suddenly awakened, and they went to play against the Celtics with unprecedented fighting spirit, such a scene has never been seen even in the previous winning games, and today against a strong opponent the score is behind but the strange appearance, fans can only attribute this function to Zhang Feng.

This continued for the final eight minutes of the fourth quarter, when the Kings started again. Randolph and the rest of the world have to give their all when they think about the bench, even if they are still 10 points behind and the Celtics are getting stronger and stronger.

Randolph seems to be back in his rookie days, and every defense is about braces and Horford cards; Willy is still confused and prone to leakage, but he stubbornly competes with Baines, who weighs much larger than him, for rebounds; Bogdan turned into a lightning shooter on offense, showing the speed of his shot when he and Zhang Feng competed for shooting; Zhang Feng sent out his 10th block with all his strength.

But the gap is the gap, the king's starting all-out still failed to narrow the score, 20 seconds before the end, the king's last attack, Zhang Feng controlled the ball over half the court, he was thinking about whether to play the last ball, but Irving's words drifted into his ears leisurely:

"Come to the Celtics after the rookie contract, there's no shame in teaming up, there's no shame in no honor."

Hearing this, Zhang Feng did not refute the relationship between honor and shame, but asked with a smile:

"You have made it clear to yourself by leaving LeBron, why should I join you? Aren't you being funny? ”

"You've proven yourself and you've got exceptional talent. If you think about Kevin Garnett, he's been in Minnesota for years without success, and people say he's always behind Duncan and Nowitzki, but he won a championship when he got to the Celtics, and he's still contributing when he's back to the Timberwolves when he's older, so you have to understand that proving yourself doesn't mean sticking to a team."

"You have a point, but I'm going to score"

While Zhang Feng and Owen tried to persuade each other, the relationship between the two offense and defense did not change, Zhang Feng took advantage of Owen's words to say too long and needed to breathe, and flashed over in one step and successfully hit two points.

Owen just smiled and didn't care, anyway, he had already won the game, but Zhang Feng continued:

"Of course, Kevin Garnett's choice is fine, he's great, but when it comes to playing, I'd rather learn from another legendary Texan star."

Owen was curious: "Do you want to learn from Yao Ming's insistence on Houston or Duncan's lifelong Spurs?" ”。

"No, I'm going to learn from Nowitzki, who hasn't thought about leaving the Mavericks in his entire career, and every time his contract expires, there is no team to recruit because they understand that Nowitzki's departure is an impossibility."

After Zhang Feng finished speaking, the whistle sounded at the end of the game, although he did not get 3 doubles in the end, but the strange double-double of 32 points and 10 blocks also amazed everyone, and the most important thing is that the Kings teammates have changed their attitudes, if it were not for a wave of strong defense in the third quarter, today's game is likely to be like the first game against the Rockets.

The Kings' performance tonight is enough to prove that they have entered the ranks of the strong teams, even if they are at the bottom of the strong teams, it is not a fish belly team to compare, no matter what, this game is worth it.
