On the Kings' 18-man roster, Zhang Feng will undoubtedly be the starting point guard, but the position of scoring guard is up for debate. In addition to Zhang Feng, there are 7 other players in the Kings backcourt: Buddy Hield, George Hill, Frank Mason, Malach Richardson, Garet Temple, Bogdan Bogdanovich, and Matt Jones.

George Hill was signed by the Kings with a lot of money to bolster and lead the youngsters, and Bogdan is the only player to compete with, and now he is raising the issue to undoubtedly make it clear that he wants to take a starting spot in the backcourt.

"What do you think?" David clasped his hands to his chest, and he knew Bogdan had something to say.

The corner of Bogdan's mouth showed a smile that was not easy to understand, and said: "I have two plans, the first plan is that Zhang Feng and Buddy - start together, and I and George will be substituted, and the second plan is that I and Buddy will start, and Zhang Feng and George will be substituted"

"What do you say?" Randolph glared.

Bogdan was not in a hurry or impatient, he seemed to be confident, he raised his hand to signal Randolph to be quiet, "Don't worry, let me explain carefully, the advantage of the first plan is that Zhang Feng can get full exercise, and George and I will have a great advantage against the opponent's second team, which can make up for the points lost by the starters in the backfield." The second plan, I can provide strong firepower, Zhang Feng and George are substitutes, and there will be no confusion in George's control of the field."

This seems to be very reasonable, but in fact, it alludes to Zhang Feng's organizational ability, according to Bogdan's meaning, Zhang Feng started to learn the organization, and he can fill the hole if he loses too many points, Zhang Feng is a substitute, and he can learn the organization with George.

In short, Bogdan felt that Zhang Feng was not good.

David laughed after hearing this, "The plan you proposed is good, I will adopt your second plan, Zhang Feng and George together, but not as a substitute, but as a starter."

As soon as David spoke, everyone present laughed, except for Bogdan.

"Why?" Bogdan seemed unconvinced.

"Because you miscalculated Zhang Feng's strength, his organizational ability is only a little worse than a point guard like Paul, and his scoring ability is in the top ten in the league, so I will arrange for you to be George's backup, so that you can learn basketball skills from Zhang Feng."

David's wording is very tricky, emphasizing learning "basketball skills", not "organizational skills", nor "shooting skills", which is serious in David, Zhang Feng is better than Bogdan in every aspect of the basketball field.

"Interesting guy, you probably didn't pay attention to Zhang Feng's performance in the United States in Europe, not long ago he singled out Irving, and the Drew League against the Harden tribe did not fall behind, do you think you can play with Irving and Harden?" Randolph said with a smile.

These words made everyone present laugh softly, and Bogdan's face was ugly, and he hurriedly said, "Why? ”

"I'm the coach," David said, and everyone in the room laughed again.

Of course, the Kings players did not deliberately target Bogdan, and they all felt that Bogdan did not know much about Zhang Feng's situation.

"I'm not convinced, isn't it because of my relationship with An Jiali and the background of the Chinese market that I have become the No. 5 show, you say that I am worse than him, I absolutely do not believe it" Bogdan pointed at Zhang Feng and said what he really thought.

Divac couldn't look at it anymore, stepped forward, patted Bogdan on the shoulder, and said seriously: "I had similar thoughts about you at the beginning, I also thought Zhang Feng was very average at first, and even almost traded the No. 5 pick, but fortunately, David tried his best to stop me." Later, I learned that it was Riley who asked us to change the No. 5 pick because he wanted to choose Zhang Feng, and of course, the most important thing is that Zhang Feng proved himself in the later summer league competition."

As soon as Divac said this, the Kings players and David were stunned, the players were surprised that they almost didn't choose Zhang Feng, and David was surprised that Divac really dared to say anything, but considering that Divac was able to ask in front of the players a few years ago whether to fire George Carr, this is nothing.

At this time, Zhang Feng's face was still calm and light, as if he didn't care about the fact that he almost didn't choose himself, but said: "That's it, you say a way that you can convince me, we are all adults, after solving this matter, everyone will work together to work hard for the team's goal, what do you think."

When the people present heard Zhang Feng's words, they all gave a thumbs up, but they didn't expect that in the face of the people who attacked him, Zhang Feng could still be generous and tolerant, and hoped that the other party could be convinced, and the first thing that came to mind was the interests of the team.

David and Divac looked at each other and nodded silently, they knew that it was a great thing that there would be good chemistry in the King's locker room after this incident, so he didn't plan to stop what was going to happen next.

"Okay, since you say so, then I won't take advantage of you, I'll propose three ways, you choose one, if I lose, I won't be entangled in the backcourt starting from now on" Bogdan didn't twist his posture, and happily agreed to Zhang Feng's proposal.

Zhang Feng raised his hand and signaled, "No, since I want to convince you, the three of us will compare, if you win one, I will give you the starting position in the backcourt, what do you think?" ”。

When Randolph heard this, he was about to stop him, but Carter grabbed him and motioned him not to disturb Zhang Feng's plan.

"This is what you said yourself, everyone has heard it, then I will shoot, skill challenge, and turn back to run all over the court" Bogdan felt that Zhang Feng's words were too good, and he took out the three items he was best at.

"No problem, do you have specific rules? How do you shoot? What skills do you want to challenge? Zhang Feng smiled, still calm, there are many ways to shoot, and the technical challenge also needs to clarify the project, only the full-court switchback run is a fixed form.

"Three-point shooting, regardless of position, based on time, the first to hit 20 wins; Skills challenge two layups around the pile, each time you have to change hands around the pile, do you know? Bogdan was confident and he felt he was going to win.

"No problem," Zhang Feng spread his hands to signal OK.

The battle was already on the way, and after the two had finished discussing, Divac motioned for the staff to prepare the venue.

"What do you think?" Divac walked over to David and asked quietly.

David patted Divac on the back, "Take it easy, you still don't know what Zhang Feng's skills are?" He's going to win, and even if he loses, it won't affect him or the team."

"I'm not worried about Zhang Feng, I'm worried about Bogdan," Divac explained.

Speaking of Bogdan, David frowned, "This person is a thorn, it is much better to find out this matter today than to deteriorate in the future, many people are not convinced when they see Zhang Feng for the first time, it is normal, this is a stereotype of Asians."

Between the conversations, the staff prepared the venue, and everyone retreated to the sidelines, waiting for the game between the two to begin.
