Chapter 398: Hukai Coalition VS All People Alliance
Zhang Feng did not answer Embiid's question, but asked rhetorically: "What, do you have any opinions?" ”。
"No, no, no opinion, I'm just curious, why do you want to blow up the American team so much, as for this teammate of yours, I know why he wants to blow up the American team" Embiid was familiar with himself and sat directly next to Zhang Feng, the teammate he was referring to was Bogdan.
Why does Bogdan want to blow up the American team? It's very simple, because he is from Serbia, he was the runner-up in the men's basketball World Cup in 14, the champion was the United States team, and he was also the runner-up in the Rio Olympics in 16, and the championship is still the United States team.
As for Buddy, the reason why he wants to beat the American team is very simple, Zhang Feng and Bogdan both want to do that, and there is no reason why he shouldn't do it.
"Seeing that they are unhappy, it is to blow them up" Zhang Feng naturally would not say that he wanted to realize Yao Ming's wish, but it was no problem to put it another way.
Perhaps it was Zhang Feng's straightforwardness and Embiid's like-mindedness, he stretched out his palm and said: "Add me, I also want to blow them up, because I want to prove that there are still many places in the world where children have basketball talent, such as Africa, my hometown Cameroon, which is why I participated in your donation program."
Simmons, Buddy, and Bogdan then joined in the high-fives, and the five burst into a stupid laugh.
"You guys together, the U.S. team is still a fart, they win if they lose by 30 points" The five people high-fived, and Iguodala came over to say hello.
"What you said makes sense, originally our 76ers three heroes played against the Lakers top three, it should be a 55 open, how do you know that Zhang Feng was born this season, and he is a member of the world team, and the American team really didn't play" Embiid felt a little bored.
"55 open? You're too modest, too...... A few of you repeaters, beating other first-year rookies and still saying that, a bit hypocritical, right? Iguodala tilted her head sideways, a hint of playfulness at the corners of her mouth.
He was right, first of all, Embiid was a 14-year rookie, but he took 2 years off due to injury. The same goes for Simmons, who didn't play a game since being drafted by the 76ers, and although they didn't play, they all received NBA-level training during that time, and both physical fitness and tactical awareness were far higher than their contemporaries.
In addition to Embiid and Simmons, the world team also has a Bogdan, although he was drafted by the Suns in 14 years and joined the Kings in 17 years, but in those 3 years, he was not idle, participating in the World Men's Basketball Team and the Rio Olympics, playing against the Dream Team, learning a lot, he joined the Kings last year with a salary of 3 years and 36 million US dollars, which is enough to explain everything.
Of course, the most terrifying thing is that the world team has Zhang Feng, he and Simmons form a backcourt, put pressure on the US team's guard line at the same time when defending, and organize a run tactic casually when attacking, and the US team is really taking the lead to deal with it.
Iguodala pointed out the question, Embiid didn't know how to answer for a while, and after he hesitated for a while, he pointed to Zhang Feng and changed the topic: "What's this?" You have to ask Zhang Feng about this, he is the captain of the All-Star team, and he has the most right to speak."
As soon as Embiid said this, Iguodala and others immediately turned their eyes to Zhang Feng, only to see Zhang Feng shaking his head and chuckling, "It's nothing that we have repeaters, but the opposite side is the Lakers and Celtics alliance, you know, among the top ten players in history, 7 people are related to the Lakers and Celtics, and the American team has 5 future Lakers and Celtics core players, we are nothing, right?" ”。
"Yes, yes, yes" Embidi nodded repeatedly, "That's right, they're strong" Bogdan gave a thumbs up, "I'm already a little scared" Simmons clasped his hands to his chest, "We'll have to fight for power later" Buddy clenched his fists.
"You ...... As for you? As a veteran of the league, Iguodala couldn't tell that the five were playing weird, but he couldn't find a place to refute it.
So far this season, Lonzo Ball has averaged 10.2 points and 7.1 assists per game, Ingram has averaged 16.2 points, 3.1 assists and 5.3 rebounds per game, Kuzma has averaged 15,7 points per game, plus Jaylen Brown has averaged 14 points per game, Tatum has averaged 13.5 points and 5 rebounds per game, Zhang Feng's so-called 'Lake-Kai Alliance' is exactly what these 5 people are talking about, if they are placed in the past, these 5 people form a rookie challenge lineup, and there is a 95% probability of beating another team.
But when these five people encounter a team composed of Zhang Feng, Embiid, Simmons, Bogdan, and Sharich, it is simply a food delivery, even if Zhang Feng, who is like a bug, can not be defeated by the 'Hukai Alliance'.
"I just like to see you look angry but helpless......" Iguodala's embarrassed expression made Embiid can't help but 'provoke'.
"I won't talk to you anymore, I'm going to the commentary stage, you guys be careful, in case of a mistake, I'll hack you to death" Iguodala turned around and left, Zhang Feng and the five couldn't hold back anymore, and they all laughed out loud.
"Laugh and laugh, don't be soft when you start fighting" Bogdan still did not forget to remind, which shows that his resentment is deep.
After chatting for a while, the staff came over to inform them that they were ready to play, and the five of them immediately entered the temporarily prepared locker room under the guidance of the staff to change clothes, and in the locker room, the five of them met the other players of the world team.
"Come, come, come, let's introduce ourselves, what is your name, what position to play" Since there was no coach, Embiid became the host.
But NBA players are not kindergarten children, no one rushed to raise their hands to introduce themselves, embarrassed, Zhang Feng took the lead in speaking: "My name is Zhang Feng, from China, now playing for the Sacramento Kings, I play as a point guard in the team, my goal today is to beat Lonzo Ball and the United States team."
As soon as the joke began, the atmosphere suddenly became lively, and Jamal Mori, Markanen, and Sabonis began to introduce themselves. Interestingly, the players of the World Team surprisingly agree with Zhang Feng's goal of beating the American team.
"It seems that everyone thinks the same, then let's beat the American team and the Hukai coalition together, but now the question is, how to arrange the starting lineup?" Embidi asks a key question.
To be reasonable, although the rookie game is just a performance game, no player wants to miss the start, and the World Team guard line is crowded, and they are still good players, like Buddy, who usually doesn't start, it's okay, Jamal Morry and others are core players in their team, and there is no reason not to start.
"What's so hard? The draw is decided, whoever is lucky and who starts, and everyone's playing time and strength remain about the same, everyone has no opinion, right? ”
After Zhang Feng proposed this plan, most of the players of the world team began to think about it, and they thought about it carefully, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it.
"I don't agree," Jamal Murray came out against.
"What do you suggest?" Zhang Feng asked curiously.
"Since the other party is the Hukai Alliance, then we should form a King+76 lineup, and the name is the All-People Alliance, and we will beat them all the way," Murray explained.
"Kings + 76ers lineup" Zhang Feng muttered to himself, "That is, I play the backcourt with Simmons, Bogdan and Saric play forward, Embiid plays center, don't say it, this lineup is good, you have to be tall and tall, you have to shoot and shoot, you have to defend and defend, you can do anything."
After Zhang Feng finished speaking, the other players of the world team also reacted, it was indeed a perfect lineup, Embiid nodded again and again and said:
"Hey, you kid is really talented!"
