At full-time 86-96, the 76ers won two straight games at home against the Mavericks.

Nowitzki of the Mavericks was the best player, finishing with 39 points and seven rebounds and five assists. Parsons had 12 points and five rebounds, Delon had nine points and six assists, Harris had nine points and three rebounds and Barria had nine points.

On the 76ers' side, Zhang Zifeng had 26 points, 6 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals and 1 block. Grant had eight points and six rebounds, McConnell had 13 points, seven rebounds and six assists, and Knoll had seven and 12 rebounds.

Zhang Zifeng played well this time, but almost all the praise after the game was concentrated on the 37-year-old veteran Nowitzki, and the super data of 39+7+5 proved that he was still the super breakup.

At the post-match press conference, when a reporter asked Zhang Zifeng what he thought of Nowitzki, Zhang Zifeng immediately replied: "His performance tonight is really crazy!" Of all the players in league history, he's one of my favorites. I'm impressed by his ability, his size, his projection, his sacrificing himself to make a wedding dress for his teammates, he's always been a part of the Mavericks, he's been playing for the Mavericks all these years, and his loyalty says it all. He is a role model for me to follow! ”

Brown also praised Nowitzki in an interview with the media, "Dirk Nowitzki is one of the great athletes in the history of basketball, and the way he played changed the game of basketball. Now more and more big men are following his example, and he has ushered in the era of projecting power forwards. He's always been a super scorer, and everyone knows that when Nowitzki shoots, he can't defend and can only pray that he doesn't have a good hand. Honestly, I'm ready to accept defeat tonight. Luckily, we had a bit of luck at the last minute and we got lucky enough to win the game! ”

When a reporter asked Nowitzki what he thought of Zhang Zifeng, Nowitzki also praised him vigorously, "Zhang Zifeng did it, he led the team to victory, I believe that the 76ers will not continue to stop, and will continue to win in the future." I think this season, under the leadership of Zhang Zifeng, the 76ers can enter the playoffs. I'm optimistic about Zhang Zifeng, I think he will become a superstar, maybe he is already a superstar now, his performance is phenomenal! ”

Mavericks head coach Tony Blair also praised, saying, "Zhang Zifeng is definitely a superstar-level player, look at the achievements of the 76ers under his leadership this season." He's a leader, and I'm sure the 76ers will come back under his leadership! In the pre-tournament draft, we told our boss Cuban that we had to take him. We tried to make a deal with the team in front of us, but unfortunately it didn't work out. I can't get Zhang Zifeng, I'm afraid it's the most regrettable thing in my career. But what I want to say is that if the 76ers are interested in trading, please let us know as soon as possible! ”

Brown heard Blair prying the foot of the wall on the spot, and lowered his head and cursed, "Fuck! ”

Brett. Brown turned his head and said to Blair with a smile, "I'm sorry, Zhang Zifeng is not for sale for us, and we will absolutely, definitely not trade him." He's going to die with the 76ers! Blair, we value Nowitzki a lot. To be honest, your salary for him this season is only 8.3 million, which is not worthy of his value at all. Dirk, are you interested in coming to our team, we are willing to give you a 5-year contract and a maximum salary! ”

Now it was Blair's turn to curse.

……

Brett. Brown and Blair openly poached each other at the press conference, and although all reporters knew that it was impossible, they still kept their eyes open and told nonsense in order to attract attention.

"Nowitzki is dissatisfied with the treatment of the Mavericks and intends to come to Philadelphia? - Philadelphia Daily News

"Philadelphia intends to trade Zhang Zifeng, Mavericks consult quotations? - The Dallas Herald

"The 76ers reached an agreement with the Mavericks to trade Zhang Zifeng for Nowitzki? - Texas Daily News

……

Although every news article uses maybe, maybe, according to relevant sources, according to reliable sources, etc., the news is reported with uncertain, uncertain, and question marks.

But the news immediately reverberated in the Philadelphia area.

Although some people think that trading Zhang Zifeng is unlikely, what if, what if the 76ers' management really gets his head caught in the door?

Take Zhang Zifeng to trade, what will Philadelphia do then?

They have left messages on the official website of the 76ers team to ask about the authenticity of the news.

In less than half an hour, the official website was crowded and paralyzed!

Without a reply, the 76ers fans are no longer calm.

With little organization, they gathered outside the 76ers club's training hall to demonstrate!

"Damn, Zhang Zifeng is not for sale with us!"

"If you dare to trade, Lao Tzu will swear that you will smash your house!"

"Zhang Zifeng is our future!"

……

Downstairs at the club, fans were littered with slogans and banners protesting the 76ers' trade for Zhang Zifeng.

The media from all over the world flocked to Philadelphia without limiting their event.

At first, the 76ers didn't care, thinking that the fans would soon understand. But as things unfolded, they realized that they were wrong, and they were so wrong.

They completely underestimated Zhang Zifeng's status in the hearts of 76ers fans.

The 76ers club hurriedly activated emergency public relations measures, contacted Zhang Zifeng as soon as possible, asked him to come forward to appease the fans first, and then immediately prepared a press conference.

In front of the club building, Zhang Zifeng repeatedly promised that he would not leave the 76ers, and the club had absolutely no intention of trading himself.

He then attended a press conference with head coach Tony Blair, general manager Sam Kimchi and team owner Joshua Harris.

At a press conference, General Manager Sam Kimchi clarified the rumors of the deal to reporters.

Sam Kimchi said at the press conference, "I reiterate once again that all the news about trading Zhang Zifeng is a rumor. We will definitely not trade Zhang Zifeng, he is not for sale in the team......"

Team owner Joshua Harris also said, "The Philadelphia 76ers are a team with an honorable history, and we hope to rebuild him as a strong team and challenge for a championship." Zhang Zifeng is the cornerstone of our team, and I promise everyone that I will never trade Zhang Zifeng! ”

The general manager said that he would not trade, saying who is not for sale, and the reliability is really very unreliable, after all, he is not the actual controller, when the boss says who he wants to sell, can he still have the right to object?

Historical trading records also prove this.

But the team owner said who is not for sale, which is a little more reliable, after all, the team is his, and he said that if he doesn't sell it, he can't sell it.

At this time, Zhang Zifeng also stood up and said, "I have a very happy life in Philadelphia, and there are loyal fans here who support us. With reliable teammates to help, I didn't think about leaving, all the news about trading me is untrue, I hope the fans don't get deceived! ”

After the press conference, general manager Sam Kimchi also had the team's lawyers send lawyers' letters to several newspaper websites.

Although they also know that this will not be very effective, the gesture is always made.

When 76ers fans saw the live broadcast on the TV network, they knew that Zhang Zifeng would not leave, so they settled down.

Settle the fans and the 76ers continue their schedule.

In the next five games with the Pacers, Heat, Rockets, Timberwolves, and Celtics, Zhang Zifeng averaged 22 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds per game, helping the 76ers defeat the Heat 96-91, 100-95 over the Timberwolves, and 84-80 over the Celtics.

They lost to the Pacers 85-112 and the Rockets 114-116, with a three-win, two-loss record.

On November 28, 2015, the 76ers traveled to Charlotte to take on the Hornets.

This summer, Jeremy Lin joined the Hornets.

The matchup between the two Chinese in this game attracted the attention of the majority of Chinese fans.

CCTV and Penguin live broadcast platforms have sent a strong commentary team to broadcast the game live.
