Chapter 447: Coach Lu Kai gives a big gift

On the day of the Kings' game against the Celtics, Zhang Feng and other Kings players entered the Golden One Center for training at least two hours earlier than usual.

I can't help it, if I go a little later, the area around the arena will be jammed, and you can see basketball fans from all over the United States and even the world.

They gathered at the various hotels near the stadium as if they were on pilgrimage, and whenever there was a game on the day, they would definitely line up outside the stadium in advance, and everyone was crazy to witness the new historical record.

In addition, the opponent this time is the Celtics, and it has been 3 days since the last time they played the Eagles, and the enthusiasm of the fans has long been uncontrollable, and they are waiting around the stadium with various banners and signs.

The Sacramento City Police Department spontaneously went to the scene to maintain law and order, and local residents thoughtfully provided small stools, towels, hot water and other help for fans who came from afar.

"I feel like 20 years of basketball have been worth it, and I've never been happier than I've been to so many teams," said Carter during the warm-up session.

"Hehe, when I came in just now, I saw someone holding a sign saying that I played well, and I should beat Pachuria," Randolph said, gesturing, very excited.

"You wait slowly, my three-game ban is over, and I can finally play today" Mason twisted his neck.

"The coach arranged for us to play double control tonight, did you suggest it? I've just finished my ban, so I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up with the tempo," Rose asked, stopping to shoot.

"Well, the Celtics have a strong impact on the front line and backcourt, and it is easy to fall into their rhythm with defense, so it is better to bombard them at the beginning" Zhang Feng nodded in response.

"I'm relieved when you say that, I haven't played center for a long time, I'm afraid I won't be able to defend against Baines," Lefu laughed at himself.

"Afraid of what? I'm not worried about not being able to stop Horford," Giles shook his head.

"Horford shouldn't be on the board, I just glanced at the tech desk, and it's probably Marcus who is opposite you," Bogdan chimed in.

The Kings had a lively chat, and David and the coaching staff were watching and they were very happy.

In the blink of an eye, the game officially began, with Love and Baines jumping in the middle circle.

'Bang' Lefu took the lead in dialing the basketball, he pulled back, and the basketball flew straight into Zhang Feng's arms, and the center of Golden No. 1 sounded excited cheers.

Quickly taking the ball across the halfcourt, Zhang Feng glanced at the position of the Celtics players.

Irving squatted at the top of the arc to defend him, Tatum was fighting with Bogdan on the left wing, Baynes and Marcus stood on the left and right sides of the basket, staring at Love and Giles respectively, and Smart was standing in the bottom corner on the right side to guard Rose.

Just glanced at it, Zhang Feng had already paid attention in his heart, he made a gesture, Giles immediately mentioned the top of the arc as a cover, he dribbled to the right, got rid of Irving, stepped into the inside, and went straight to the basket. At the same time, Love began to set up Baynes to create space for Zhang Feng to make layups.

From bypassing the defense to breaking into the inside line in a total of only 2 seconds, Zhang Feng rushed up like a quick-release GIF, Marcus, who changed the defense, couldn't catch up at all, Smart who was standing in the bottom corner of the right side frowned, and rushed forward to wrap Zhang Feng.

After successfully disrupting the Celtics' defense, Zhang Feng did not fight hard, he turned around to look back at the moon, and coldly passed the ball to Rose on the right baseline.

Although the three-point line was not good, Rose rushed fast and fiercely, and before Smart could react, Rose had already accelerated in three steps and scored a backhand layup.

The Celtics attacked, and Irving handed the ball to Tatum in the half, and moved directly to the left wing to cover Tatum.

After changing the defense, Tatum did not have an advantage against Zhang Feng, so he could only dribble to the top of the arc, and after Irving dismantled, he re-faced Bogdan.

As soon as Zhang Feng walked away, Tatum immediately bowed down and strode to the right, lowered the center and forcibly walked to the basket against Bogdan.

IN TERMS OF HEIGHT, TATUM IS 5CM TALLER THAN BOGDAN, BUT WEIGHS ABOUT THE SAME AS BOGDAN, AT ONLY 205 POUNDS.

As a result, he didn't have much advantage in breaking through the top and was blocked by Bogdan at the free-throw line.

Seeing that he was about to make a mistake, Smart ran over to pick up Tatum in advance, but as soon as he got the ball, he was stealed by Rose, and the Kings took the opportunity to launch a fast break.

Another 2 points were scored, less than 40 seconds before and after, the young coach Stevens on the sidelines couldn't sit still, he got up and made a gesture to Owen who was dribbling, Owen nodded, it should be to change tactics.

Sure enough, after Irving arrived at the three-point, he immediately passed Smart, who failed to hit the inside with the ball, and immediately passed it to Tatum who ran over.

But after Tatum tried to break through, he didn't find a good rhythm and could only give the ball to Marcus under the basket.

Marcus received the ball and forced Giles, Giles couldn't parry, but Love stepped forward to help defend, and Marcus had to give the ball to Baines, who was in a more powerful position.

Baines caught the ball outside the paint area and shot directly, Love didn't have time to return to defense, but unfortunately missed, Giles grabbed the rebound, and the Kings launched a fast break again.

Zhang Feng rushed to the front court like lightning, Irving tried to steal but failed, Zhang Feng took the opportunity to sneak to the basket and easily scored 2 points.

The Kings scored 6 points in a row, 2 defensive counterattacks, the Celtics attacked again, and Irving finally signaled to pull away from the heads-up, and he wanted to bring the momentum back.

As soon as he came up, Owen offered his best fast crotch dribble to find rhythm, and after about six or seven changes of hands, Owen sent the ball forward on the left side, trying to break through Zhang Feng hard.

But he rushed to the basket and couldn't get rid of Zhang Feng, so he could only hand the ball to Baines, but unexpectedly, Baines actually scored the ball against Lefou, and the Celtics finally scored.

In the next few rounds, the Celtics continued to use the fast pass tactics to find an efficient way to score, but it was extremely difficult to score every time.

On the contrary, on the side of the Kings, they basically didn't play any tactics, and relied on defense to counterattack, leading by as many as 10 points at the end of the first quarter.

After the start of the second quarter, Irving played less than six minutes before going off the break. Without Irving, Smart took on the responsibility of the Celtics' offensive organization, but under Zhang Feng's strict defense, he could hardly deliver assists efficiently.

The Celtics, who had lost their offensive organization, were completely single-handed, and by halftime, the Kings had a 22-point lead.

What's even more bizarre is that when he came back at halftime, Irving still didn't play, and the Kings continued to extend their lead, and the third quarter was not over, and the difference between the two teams had reached 30 points, and finally the Kings won the game unexpectedly easily.

In the handshake session after the game, young marshal Stevens took the initiative to find Zhang Feng.

"Congratulations, I hope you can lead the Kings to break the Lakers' 33-game winning streak, there are still 2 games left, you must come on."

"You're releasing water too, isn't it? I'm a little embarrassed to win," Zhang Feng shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"No, you misunderstood, we definitely didn't release water, we tried to change tactics in the first quarter, but found that the effect was not ideal, Irving had a recurrence of old injuries, and the first place in the East could not compete with the Raptors, the best result was to give up strategically, let Irving have a good rest, and sell your personal favor by the way" Stevens said with a grin.

Zhang Feng nodded to show understanding, Stevens was also straightforward, did not hide his true intentions, although the king can win hard, but today Stevens is equivalent to a gift, they can save more physical strength to deal with the next game.
