Chapter 225: Activating Teammates

In the North Shore Garden away locker room, David Jogle was emphasizing the importance of defense to the Kings players, and he gave an impassioned speech, but such clichés failed to provoke much reaction from the players, Justin lowered his head and said nothing, Willy was a little embarrassed to fan himself with his jersey, and Zhang Feng lay on his back in his chair, thinking quickly about how to attack in the second half.

Why not think about defense? Because it is really unguardable, except for the point guard, the players in any position of the Celtics are better than the Kings, either high rookies or famous players, the King's talent and strength are a little worse, this is not something that can be changed overnight or a certain tactic.

David had finished speaking, but Zhang Feng still hadn't thought of a way.

According to the practice of the locker room in the past, Zhang Feng wanted to say a few words at this time, but he really had nothing to say, he finally understood the bitterness in David's heart, that is, he couldn't beat it, he could only fight passion, and maybe it would have a miraculous effect.

"Everyone rushed with me in the second half, how much can you prevent, how many blows you can play, just do it in a word!"

Simple and rude, but Zhang Feng is not nonsense, he thought of one thing the moment he got up, that is, a passage said by Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue.

"We're going to put our all in and defend well, but sometimes it's not good even if you defend well, you know, sometimes Stephen Curry hits a difficult shot, sometimes Klay Thompson hits a difficult shot, sometimes Kevin Durant hits a tough shot, and all we can do is try to defend well and stick to your defensive principles and try to make it difficult for them."

Isn't this what the ancients often said about knowing the destiny of heaven? Zhang Feng thinks it makes a lot of sense!

At the end of the halftime timeout, the two teams returned to the court, Owen took the ball to attack quickly, and Zhang Feng interfered closely.

After halftime, Irving collected the ball and passed to Jaylen Brown, who turned and dribbled past Bogdan, then rushed to the free throw line and went straight to the jumper, duang, hit the iron!

Willie jumped up and grabbed the rebound, landed and turned, and his hands vigorously stuffed Zhang Feng on the outside, Owen tried to intercept and failed, Zhang Feng rushed to the front court, and Owen buried his head in pursuit.

In just one second, both of them are in the position of one step in front of the left sideline, three-point line, and middle line, and it is unlikely that Zhang Feng will break through from the left in this position.

Considering this, Owen stood directly on Zhang Feng's right side, intending to block Zhang Feng's change of direction, and also gestured to Jaylen Brown on the right, as if telling him to pay attention to the help defense, because Bogdan might block Zhang Feng.

Sure enough, Bogdan moved to the left, and when he saw that he was about to block Zhang Feng, Owen raised a smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "This tactic is too straightforward, right?" Did you create your own? ”。

"Enough for you!" , The voice fell, Zhang Feng controlled the ball and moved sideways to the right, Jaylen Brown bent down to follow, and when he reached the top of the arc, Zhang Feng pulled up and jumped, Jaylen Brown didn't want to jump with him.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Feng withdrew his hand in the air and hoisted the ball to Willy on the inside.

Standing on the right side of the three-second zone, Willy received a pass with his left hand, and he took advantage of the situation to hold the basketball high and make a three-step reverse layup, and finally hit a 2-point shot from the board with Bennes' interference.

"How? This tactic is easy to use", Zhang Feng turned his head back and raised his head at Owen, Owen opened his eyes and pouted in disdain, "Next, let you see what real singles are divided."

Zhang Feng didn't care much about Owen's cruel words, so many singles in the first quarter were prevented, can there be new tricks this time?

Owen didn't pass the ball immediately after the half, but lowered his center of gravity and quickly dribbled the ball under his crotch twice, Zhang Feng was unmoved, Owen took a step forward to the right, Zhang Feng retreated sideways slightly, Owen suddenly smiled on his face, raised his hand and passed the ball straight to the inside.

Zhang Feng looked back and saw that Horford had already got the ball and turned over for a jumper, Randolph couldn't block it, and the King was scored 2 points.

While walking to the backcourt in frustration to receive the ball, while looking up at the big screen in the center of the court, Zhang Feng wondered why Horford received the ball so easily.

As a result, the replay video shows that when Irving was heads-up, most of the players' attention was focused on them, but the difference was that the Celtics players were always aware that Irving might have to pass the ball, and the Kings players felt that they had to see if Zhang Feng could defend it first, so Horford took advantage of Randolph's distraction and easily received the pass.

The gap, this is the gap in tactical literacy, there are very few players in the whole Kings team who always think about what they should do, and they have developed a dependence on Zhang Feng, whether it is offensive or defensive.

After Zhang Feng passed half the court this time, he directly handed the ball to Bogdan and stepped forward to block it.

Bogdan was a little confused when he received the ball, why did the team boss start blocking and dismantling himself?

"Vote, where did you go with the courage to pull me off the starter?"

Zhang Feng roared angrily, and Bogdan reacted and gritted his teeth to score a dry pull 3 points, but he couldn't hit.

"Don't worry, this shot option is fine, remember what we said before, just do it!" , Zhang Feng comforted Bogdan while retreating, he was not talking nonsense, Bogdan's position just now can indeed shoot.

"Up!" Seeing Jaylen Brown holding the ball and waiting for someone to run, but the Celtics did not succeed in running for a long time, Zhang Feng immediately shouted and wrapped up with Bogdan at the same time.

Jaylen Brown had no choice but to share the ball, Irving received a pass and went straight to Baines inside, Justin directly gave up Tatum to help defend it, Baines passed the ball with joy in his heart, and Tatum jumped directly after taking the ball!

"Ball protection!" , Owen shouted one after another, because Zhang Feng had already rushed towards Tatum.

Although Zhang Feng didn't have time to defend Irving just now, and Justin also leaked Tatum after assisting in defending Baynes, the involvement of the two bought Zhang Feng time, didn't have time to block Baynes in the 3-second area, and didn't have time to block Tatum who had a 45-degree service line?

"Bang", a familiar voice sounded, and at the same time the referee blew the whistle, a throw-in, although it was still a Celtic player, but there were only 7 seconds left in the offensive time, Zhang Feng and Justin high-fived and celebrated.

Baines made a long pass outside the bounds, and Owen skillfully tried to break through with 2 crotches when he got the ball, but Zhang Feng did not choose to wait passively this time, but went directly to grab it.

It's not easy to snatch the ball from a ball control player like Irving, he is fast and has a low center of gravity, which can easily cause fouls from the insiders, but Zhang Feng's purpose is not necessarily to grab the ball, he wants to drive his teammates to do it with him.

Owen was forced to choose to dribble to the left to find another opportunity, but Zhang Feng shouted directly:

"Come on, bag-clip!".

This was undoubtedly said to Bogdan next to him, who did not hesitate to go straight to Owen.

This situation made Stevens on the sidelines frown, and he didn't understand why Zhang Feng was so insistent on asking for the bag.

Is it to activate the motivation of the Kings players?

Yesterday I made a mistake in writing height, and it has been corrected.
