After it was determined that a large LCD screen would be erected on the outer wall of the stadium, all the staff of the King acted in a hurry, and the marketing department called around to contact the sale of additional tickets; The security services have temporarily set up special teams to respond to various emergencies that may arise; The media department sent out invitations all over the place, hoping that more media and celebrities would arrive at the scene.

From the end of the game against the Mavericks to the face of the Pacers, it was only one day in total, but the entire staff of the Kings spent all their time preparing for the game except for eating and going to the bathroom, and finally made preparations in the morning.

Around noon, Sacramento Mayor and former NBA player Kevin Johnson made a televised speech announcing the city's three-hour leave of work early and calling on the citizens of Saskacity to tune in to the Kings game.

4 hours before the start of the game, the Sachar City Restaurant Alliance announced that after the game, you can enjoy a 9% discount for dining with the ticket to watch the game; The Sa City Bar Industry Alliance announced a 7.7% discount on beer on the day, and the Kings officially announced that they will provide free drinks and popcorn to fans at the game site and around the stadium.

Five hours before the start of the race, traffic jams began to occur 10 kilometers around the Golden One Centre, which is rare during non-rush hours.

At first, the traffic management department of Sa Cheng didn't take it seriously, after all, there was a game for the king, and it was normal for traffic jams to be in traffic.

But as time went on, traffic from all directions to the Golden One Center in Sa City was paralyzed, and some drivers even gave up moving forward, stopped at the nearest place, got out of the car and walked to it.

Seeing such a situation, the traffic management department of Sacha City couldn't sit still, and they immediately increased the investment of the traffic police, hoping to solve the congestion problem an hour before the game.

What is embarrassing is that most of the traffic police who were on vacation that day have already chosen to go to the scene to watch the game, in other words, many traffic police themselves are blocked on the road.

Two hours before the start of the game, the traffic congestion problem was finally resolved, and almost all the fans who had bought tickets and watched the game outside the stadium had arrived at the Golden One Center.

If you take a helicopter and fly over the Golden One Arena, you can see a dense crowd completely surrounding the entire arena, and various oversized banners scattered among the crowd.

One hour before the start of the game, the Kings players began to enter the arena, and with the introduction of the live host, Randolph was the first to walk on the specially laid red carpet.

"Zach, Zach, Zack", as soon as Randolph appeared, the fans who welcomed him shouted his name in unison, and Randolph was happy like a 200-pound child, high-fived and interacted with the fans while running.

When he ran to the end of the red carpet, he seemed to feel that he was not finished, and he would turn around and run again to high-five the fans.

The second to appear is the little prince Mason of Twitter, he is dressed in a black suit, tie, leather shoes can be used as a mirror, and his hairstyle is temporarily changed to an inch head, looking like a cold and melancholy prince from a distance.

But as soon as the fans called his name, his cold face was immediately filled with a silly smile, and then he took out his mobile phone and opened Twitter to take selfies with the fans.

It wasn't enough for him to finish shooting, he didn't forget to take a group photo at the end of the red carpet, and finally walked into the court satisfied.

Then Bogdan, Justin, Carter and others entered the stadium one after another, and the cheers of the fans rose higher and higher, and when Zhang Feng appeared, the shouts on the scene almost spread from the center of Golden One to 3 kilometers away.

With such enthusiasm from the fans, Zhang Feng slowed down and kept bowing slightly around until he reached the center of the red carpet before TNT reporter Maggio began to interview.

"OAH, Zhang Feng, how do you feel?".

"It's amazing, it's amazing, it's been a dream come true to have so many fans in there to support us and countless fans to support us through the media, thank you all."

"I heard that there will be a special gift for fans tonight, what is it?"

"Keep it a secret for the time being, we won't announce it until we win the game"

"Good luck then!"

After the interview, Zhang Feng bowed around again, and after he entered the arena, the NBA celebrities invited by the public relations department, former Kings stars, and entertainment stars began to enter.

Oscar-Robertson, who entered the venue first, although his relationship with Zhang Feng was very stiff at the beginning, he was one of the few kings who could 'discuss' history with Abdul-Jabbar and others, and when the public relations department talked about it, Zhang Feng took the initiative to invite him.

After Robertson, the Kings '02 Western Conference finalist lineup was played, led by Divac, followed by Bibby, Peja, Pollard, Webb, Bobby-Jackson and others.

As soon as Divac and others appeared, some middle-aged fans at the scene immediately cried, some shouted directly, and some stopped waving the king's flag in their hands in a silent daze.

After all the players were in, Angeli first entered with Jennifer Lawrence. He was followed by Hollywood actor Mark Wahlberg and well-known musician DJ Khaled, both of whom became fans of Zhang Feng at the All-Star Slam Dunk Contest.

Subsequently, Kevin Hart, Chinese star Wu Yifan and others specially invited by the public relations department.

30 minutes before the start of the game, the star admission ended, and the major TV stations transferred the picture to the live broadcast room. This game is also a temporary increase in the national live broadcast, but this time, not only TNT, but also NBA TV, FOX Sports, ABC TV joined the live broadcast, and even ESPN, which had a holiday with Zhang Feng, also broadcast the game live for the ratings.

Thirty minutes before the start of the game, the players of both teams returned to the dressing rooms to prepare, the lights dimmed, DJ Khaled began to perform, and the atmosphere in the Golden One Arena gradually became restless.

In the visiting locker room, the Pacers players have solemn expressions.

"Little boys, it looks like we're a supporting role at the moment, but I hope you give it your all, I hope you're as fearless as I am, as long as you beat the Kings today, you can secure the playoff spot, and you can complete the upgrade transformation, then you can not only be the protagonist of tonight, but also the protagonist of the playoffs!"

Bird personally supervised the game and made a special pre-game speech in order to encourage the Pacers players not to be intimidated by the momentum of the Kings' home court, and when he said this, the solemnity on the faces of the Pacers players was swept away, and everyone looked eager to try.

Three minutes before the start of the game, Zhang Feng ran out of the players' tunnel, the only light in the stadium focused on him, and the live broadcast began to shout: "Zhang Feng! King! Zhang Feng! King! ”。

Originally, this was a normal thing, and Zhang Feng would not care too much, but when he thought about it carefully, it was a little wrong, and after thinking about it again, he found that the live broadcast was shouting in Chinese, and he couldn't help but smile.

But as soon as he burst out laughing, the 17,500 viewers shouted along with the broadcast, also in Chinese.

"Zhang Feng! King! Zhang Feng! King! Zhang Feng! King! ”

The fans repeated it ten times in a row, at first it was not very neat, and the pronunciation was not very standard, and then it became more and more uniform, more and more clearly audible, and the whole stadium was only left with the words 'Zhang Feng' and 'King'.

At that moment, the king was Zhang Feng, and Zhang Feng was the king.

He held back his tears, and David patted him on the shoulder.

"Coach, when was your most glorious moment? Is it the moment you become an NBA head coach? ”

"The moment you become your head coach, to be exact, what about you?"

"Me? Now is the time! ”
