Chapter 239: The second point guard in the West

"Turtle slaughter conference", a new word that appeared this season. The reason for its appearance is very simple, first, because the results of last season's MVP selection made Harden's fans very unconvinced, this season Harden played well, Wei Shao's performance struggled, Harden's fans naturally inevitably brought up the old things and criticized Wei Shao; The second is that the formation of the Big Three by the Thunder has attracted the attention of many neutral fans, among which Warriors fans feel threatened, and Lakers fans are jealous because they didn't get George, but it is precisely these two pairs of fans who account for a huge proportion.

Wei Shao strolled to the sideline and stood cross-legged, ignoring the excited shouts of the Kings fans, he took the pass and ran wildly, until the right side of the front court LOGO area began to slow down, he bent down to control the ball and signaled that Filton did not need to cover.

Zhang Feng also shook his head at Mason, and he agreed to the 1v1 challenge launched by Wei Shao.

As soon as the two put on a heads-up stance, George took Carter to the left, Felton also took Mason to the left side by detouring the baseline, and Adams retreated to the basket.

Wei Shao took a step with his right foot, and Zhang Feng did not move. Seeing that he couldn't deceive the rhythm, Wei Shao quickly changed his direction in advance to break through to the left, this time Zhang Feng moved, he quickly changed to a sideways posture, and his left and right feet followed Wei Shao one after the other.

Who knew that Zhang Feng was fast, but Wei Shao was faster, and when he entered the three-point line, Wei Shao accelerated one step at a time, and Zhang Feng, who was standing sideways, couldn't catch up, and Wei Shao used Adams to cover his hands and dunk violently.

Unexpected speed change breakthrough, Zhang Feng paid the price for arrogance, and he would never grit his teeth and admit it. This attack, he wants to fight back.

The same LOGO area, the same heads-up gesture, Wei Shao bent down and clapped his hands, without the slightest fear on his face.

In order to be neat, Zhang Feng directly omitted the tentative action, he simply crossed and then went straight to the bottom line on the right side, such a move was a great joy for Wei Shao, he could block Zhang Feng's shot only by moving horizontally.

When he reached the bottom line, Zhang Feng saw that Wei Shao did not show the slightest sign of slowing down, he stopped directly, Wei Shao jumped violently, Zhang Feng leaned directly up, and shot at the same time.

The ball scored at the whistle, and Zhang Feng played 2+1. Wei Shaozhi glanced at the referee in a daze, and kept shaking his head.

There are a lot of balls that are deceived to find fouls, and very few balls are found to be fouled, and the king has made a lot of money on this offense.

Taking advantage of free throw time, the TNT trio sighed.

"Wonderful singles, Zhang Feng's performance was fantastic," Barkley said, clapping his hands.

"Charles, I must remind you that Zhang Feng has been doing very well," O'Neill said, knocking on the table.

"Ball struggled, Fultz was injured, Dennis Smith and Frank were not as good as Zhang Feng in terms of statistics, and Zhang Feng was the best rookie of the year"

"Are you already a fan of Zhang Feng? You've been touting all these games," Barkley squinted sideways.

"No, Kenny didn't brag, but underestimated Zhang Feng", as soon as O'Neill's words came out, Barkley and Kenny both turned their heads and asked, as if to say "What?" The best rookie is underrated? ”。

"Zhang Feng has played against Jose Barria, Jamal Mori, Bledsoe, Holiday and Cody Zeller this season, and these people are not Zhang Feng's opponents at all, Zhang Feng is not only better stats, but the team has also won. Even if he lost three games, one against Harden, Zhang Feng broke the debut scoring record, one against Irving for consecutive steals and blocks, and one against Reggie Jackson with a double-double......"

"Wait, Shaq, what do you mean by listing Zhang Feng's data?" Kenny interrupted.

"I want to say that with today's performance against Wei Shao, Zhang Feng is already the second point guard in the West."

"Wow, so Paul is already ranked below Zhang Feng?" , Barkley did not rush to refute, he planned to provoke the highlights first, anyway, O'Neill said it, he is not responsible.

"Yes, the next time the king shoots a rocket, you will find out that I am telling the truth", O'Neill did not hesitate in the slightest, his expression indicating that he was not joking.

"Okay, let's see."

The game on the court had reached the end of the first quarter, and after Zhang Feng scored a three-pointer against Wei Shao, the game entered an official timeout. At this time, the score of the two teams was 25:10, if you didn't watch the live broadcast, everyone should think that it was the 25 points scored by the Thunder, but in fact, the Thunder's 10 points were still obtained by Anthony's 3 strong backs and Wei Shao's 2 breakthroughs.

After the timeout, Donovan replaced Wei Shao, he planned to calm down Wei Shao, who had already hit the iron 6 times, Robertson, who replaced Wei Shao to control the ball, did not mean to stick to the ball, and stuffed it to George in the front line after half time.

George Punch, who twice grabbed the position with his back and hit a turnaround jumper. Looking back, Zhang Feng passed the ball to Carter again, and Carter used his experience to make up for the explosiveness, and he successfully deceived George to wipe the board by playing carefully with the dribble.

In Wei Shao's absence, the Thunder suddenly became a decent team, they either George singled in the high post to seek a breakthrough, or Anton made a low back single layup, and if it didn't work, he passed to the outside Filton to force a three-point shot.

After Zhang Feng left the court in the second quarter, the Kings changed to Mason as the main controller. Mason took Justin and Bogdan to a crazy fast attack, although the shooting rate was not good, but it also dragged the Thunder enough.

The Kings were not on the court, and the lead was quickly recovered, and by halftime, the Kings led by six points at 48:42.

At halftime, the Thunder arranged for George, who played well, to be interviewed.

"How do you feel about Carter's sudden outburst?" The reporter went straight to the point.

"Well, he used to be a superstar, so it's not surprising that he's doing it now, it's just that I'm going to do better in the second half", George has a good emotional intelligence, first qualifying and then defending.

"You fell behind by a large margin in the first quarter, what do you think was the reason?" , This question is a bit provocative, because anyone with a discerning eye can see that Wei Shaolang has invested too much, and George, as a teammate, must not be able to tell the truth.

"Uh, well, that's right, we have some deficiencies in the execution of the tactics, but fortunately we made successful adjustments in the second quarter, and we will continue to insist on playing according to the tactics for the rest of the time", George did not specify that it was Wei Shao's fault, and put the blame on the poor execution of the team's tactics.

"OK, last question, O'Neal just commented that Zhang Feng is currently the second point guard in the West, what do you think about this?"

"Really? The second point guard in the West, hehe, haha, well, everyone has their own opinion, and that's no problem", although the second half of the sentence is an official statement, George's laughter has already shown his true attitude.
