It's early March now, and there's only a month and a half left until the playoffs.

Now 60 have been played,

The 76ers have only 27 wins and 33 losses so far. Four wins away from the Pistons' 31-win run.

Now there are only 22 games left, and it will be very difficult to fill the gap of these four wins in the next games.

Zhang Zifeng knew that he had to improve his strength as soon as possible in order to help the team.

It is precisely because of this that after losing to the Wizards, he was still practicing at one o'clock in the morning, just to master the technique of back-to-back singles as soon as possible.

The video of Zhang Zifeng's practice at one o'clock in the morning was put on the Internet by the staff of the stadium, which immediately caused a heated discussion.

The incident also alarmed 76ers management.

At the beginning, Zhang Zifeng practiced his back-to-back singles skills. Brown knows that. But he didn't expect Zhang Zifeng to be so anxious to practice well, and he would work so hard.

Zhang Zifeng is now very valuable to the 76ers. Brown didn't dare to let Zhang Zifeng train so hard anymore, otherwise he would be overtired and injured, and he was afraid that he would be criticized by the fans.

Brett. Brown quickly asked the general manager for an expense, and asked the assistant coach in charge of the team's technical direction, Lloyd. Pierce worked overtime and stayed up late to watch Zhang Zifeng's training videos and find out Zhang Zifeng's mistakes in training.

In the training session the next day, Lloyd. Pierce patiently explained to Zhang Zifeng the key points of the technical action of back-body singles.

"Whether it's inside or at back, the back-to-back singles are hugely powerful for defenders. Because the other party is easily swayed from side to side by your feints, and the center of gravity is unstable. Then you're ready to shoot! Jack, when he turns around to shoot. You have to remember to turn quickly and get stuck to create enough space for yourself to shoot......"

Zhang Zifeng listened carefully to Lloyd. Pierce's explanation.

In addition to the explanation, Lloyd. Pierce personally demonstrated how to turn around and shoot several times, and at the same time explained the key points of this action to Zhang Zifeng.

After listening to the lecture, Zhang Zifeng started training again.

With the help of professionals, it is different from groping alone, Zhang Zifeng feels that the efficiency has improved a lot.

On the training ground, Zhang Zifeng trained over and over again, and he didn't know how many times he turned around, and his head was almost dizzy.

In this way, Zhang Zifeng began a new round of training.

Soon he will be able to skillfully dribble with his back and carry Rose back step by step.

Ross was no longer surprised by Zhang Zifeng's speed of progress, and he knew that Zhang Zifeng was working hard in training.

So it's normal to have such progress.

March 5, Wells Fargo Center Arena. The 76ers will face the Miami Heat on their home court.

The game will be broadcast live on TNT TV, and the commentary booth at the game will be filled with Ross Barkley, Regermiler, Kenny. smith

"Wade's form has been good in the last few games, but Zhang Zifeng has been in some trouble recently, I think Zhang Zifeng will face the situation of being beaten by Flash Wade tonight!" Kenny. Smith said.

"Mark, I don't agree with you. Haven't you watched the recent news? In the last loss to the Wizards, Zhang Zifeng punishively practiced himself until 1 a.m. This shows that Zhang Zifeng is very dissatisfied with his recent state, I have a hunch that he is about to break out this time, and Wade is in trouble! Rejmiler shook his head.

"At this year's All-Star Game, it is said that there is a big conflict between Wade and Zhang Zifeng. It can be seen that Zhang Zifeng was boycotted and isolated by the Eastern players led by Wade. Maybe today is a good opportunity for Zhang Zifeng, but of course I doubt that he can beat Wade. Barkley interjected.

"The game is about to start, let's see if Wade taught Zhang Zifeng to be a man, and Zhang Zifeng, who is still sitting at home, defeated Wade and got back face!"

Kenny. Smith said, looking to the center of the field.

The referee blew the whistle and threw the ball into the air.

Knoll and Whiteside touched the basketball almost at the same time, but Whiteside took advantage of the bounce and moved the basketball to the backcourt.

Zhang Zifeng saw the direction of the ball and immediately rushed over, but Wade had the advantage of position and took the lead to get the ball.

After getting the ball, Wade found that the 76ers had quickly retreated and had no fast break opportunities, so he dribbled to the frontcourt.

"Tonight, I'll teach you how to understand the truth as a rookie!" Seeing Zhang Zifeng standing in front of him defending, Wade said.

"Take care of yourself! Without your good friend James to support you. What else do you have to do! Zhang Zifeng snorted coldly, but his eyes were staring at the ball in Wade's hand.

Wade dribbled the ball outside the 45-degree three-point line, his eyes staring closely at Zhang Zifeng in front of him.

Although he was very disdainful of Zhang Zifeng, in his mind, Wade was very jealous of Zhang Zifeng's defense.

Not to mention offensive scoring ability, this guy also has a defense that counts among the league's guards.

In the face of Wade, Zhang Zifeng did not dare to be careless at all, although Wade is 34 years old, in recent years, with the age and the impact of injuries, there have rarely been crazy performances like 0506, but his performance in the last few games is good, 25+ in a row.

He didn't want to be beaten up by Wade today and become a laughing stock.

Signaling Whiteside to come up as a cover, Wade continued to dribble under his crotch, and seeing that Whiteside had already stood still, Wade suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the free throw line.

Zhang Zifeng was just about to keep up when he bumped into Whiteside.

"Wade shook off Zhang Zifeng and rushed into the inner line!" Smith shouted loudly when he saw it.

Noll on the inside hurriedly moved his feet and came up to make up for it.

Seeing Knoll, Wade suddenly made his famous lost move, then took a big stride and a wrong dodge before picking the ball to the basket.

Although Knoll moved well on his feet, he was still a little slower than the Flash Wade, who heeled from behind and when he tried to block, the ball was already flying to the basket.

When he landed, he could only watch the basketball plunge into the hoop.

After landing, when Wade ran back, he looked at Zhang Zifeng and said contemptuously, "See, rookie." You're so tender! ”

"yes, I'll make sure you remember today. Veteran! ”

When Wade ran back, Zhang Zifeng's voice came into Wade's ears.

Wade was stunned for a moment, then smiled disdainfully.

Lei Jie. Miller saw it and said with a smile, "Wade played very actively as soon as he came up, and he told Zhang Zifeng with practical actions that he is still the best scoring guard in the East!" ”

Zhang Zifeng sped up and ran to the half court and directly reached out on the outside to signal for the ball, and McConaughey quickly passed the ball to Zhang Zifeng.

When Zhang Zifeng received the ball, it was a series of feints. But in front of the experienced Wade, Zhang Zifeng's actions were useless.

Wade arrogantly chattered in Zhang Zifeng's ear, "You can't break through, can you!" What are you going to do? You can't do anything, can you? ”

Seeing that he couldn't get rid of Wade, Zhang Zifeng just wanted to pass the ball out and organize an attack, when he suddenly thought, I have been training hard, isn't there a way to break the deadlock when this kind of thing happens?

No matter how good the training is off the field, you have to actually operate it in the game to know if it is useful, and now is not the best opportunity?

Zhang Zifeng immediately leaned his back against Wade, and at the same time arched his butt back, and after arching out of the space, Zhang Zifeng dribbled and crashed into Wade, who had not yet stood firm.

"You don't want to score a goal on your crappy back!" Wade, who was behind him, said viciously, trying to steal the ball in Zhang Zifeng's hand with his arm.

"Really?" Zhang Zifeng slapped the ball hard, and his body then slammed backwards, which not only interrupted Wade's intentions, but also pushed a step back.

It can be seen that Wade is also very similar to defeating Zhang Zifeng tonight. Wade stubbornly carried Zhang Zifeng and easily did not give Zhang Zifeng a chance to advance.

Competing for strength, Zhang Zifeng is not afraid of Wade.
