In the opening 3 minutes, Zhang Feng had a 2+1, a block, and many successful defenses, and Bauer hit two irons angrily, not to mention that the two made a judgment, at least it can prove that the comparison of TNT is no problem at all.

The magician was sitting on the sidelines at the moment and looking down in thought. Before the draft, Kobe Bryant tried his best to suggest to him to take Zhang Feng, and he also seriously considered Kobe's suggestion, but considering the relationship between Zhang Feng and Kobe Bryant's cooperation to open a store, the Magic specially asked Lakers scouts to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Zhang Feng.

The report given by the Lakers scouts pointed out that Zhang Feng was very good, but also highlighted two shortcomings: first, the Lakers scouts believed that Zhang Feng's fame relied too much on Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner's Twitter retweets and promotions, and he had no regular league experience to check, so he should beware of the suspicion of fraud; Second, Lakers scouts believe that Zhang Feng is too old, even if he has good combat power, it is difficult to tap the potential, and what the Lakers are most lacking at present is a player who can take on the task of rebuilding the Bauhinia Dynasty, and such a player needs super talent.

Combining these factors, Magic gave up inviting Zhang Feng to the Lakers for a tryout, and insisted on choosing the famous Lonzo Ball, although Ball has performed remarkably so far this season, but it is still 108,000 miles behind Zhang Feng.

There was pain in his heart, but when the camera swept to the magician, he still forced a smile and pretended to be very satisfied.

The Lakers attacked, Ball quickly pushed the ball over the half court, Zhang Feng stepped forward at the top of the arc to rely on Pope's defense, Ball was so anxious to subconsciously pass the ball, such a cowardly performance not only made the Lakers fans who went to Sacramento to support cold, but even the ball father buried his head in tying his shoelaces as if he didn't see it.

Bauer cowards, but Kuzma doesn't! He took the ball straight to the basket and started at the free throw line, looking like he was going to force a dunk, but Justin stepped back from the short corner to the basket and raised his hand to block at any moment.

It stands to reason that at this time, Justin assisted in the defense, Kuzma should pass the unguarded Ingram, but unfortunately he was angry and didn't see it in his heart, although Justin and Willy both failed to prevent him, but he couldn't score, and the rebound was picked up and grabbed by Scal.

The moment Skar grabbed the ball and turned around, Zhang Feng had already run sideways to the backcourt, and Ball also reacted quickly to chase Zhang Feng to prevent the king from playing a fast attack, but unfortunately Mason also turned around almost at the same time.

The Kings played 2 to 1 in the frontcourt, Mason dribbled the ball to the basket, Pop who defended him failed to catch up, Ball had to give up Zhang Feng to defend, Mason stuck out his tongue and passed Zhang Feng with a smile.

Bauer's defense was not good, but his defensive attitude was still very good, he hurriedly turned around to defend Zhang Feng again, and Zhang Feng also pretended to play the board with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned. When Ball looked up at the hoop and was about to grab the board, he found that Zhang Feng did not shoot, and the ball had already flown into Mason's hands.

"Shaq, can these two monkeys cooperate to be embarrassment?" Kenny asked, smiling.

Hearing this, O'Neill shook his head again and again, "No, no, no, how can such a serious defense be embarrassed?" ”。

Shaq meant that there would be more embarrassing images later," Barkley looked like, 'I've seen through it.'"

"You know me so well, why did we quarrel before?" O'Neill smiled and gave a thumbs up.

Off the pitch, Wharton called a timeout, 7-0 was not a big problem, Kuzma and Ball were not in the right mood and what worried him. After some reassurance, Wharton left Kuzma and the two on the bench for reflection, and sent Randle and Clarkson in.

Zhang Feng is very familiar with Clarkson's technical characteristics, mainly because Clarkson likes to cover and pull forward for jump shots, and he is extremely fond of leaning forward when jumping.

Sure enough, when Clarkson reached the three-point line, he called Lopez to block and dismantle, Zhang Feng turned his head and signaled Willy to defend, Clarkson had to dribble to the inside, Zhang Feng got rid of Lopez and intercepted in time, and Clarkson had no choice but to divide the ball outside Randle.

Although Randle has changed his style of play since last season, abandoning the mindless routine of rushing inside, Zhang Feng still wants to give it a try to see if he can intercept his dribble at the free throw line.

There is really a reward for daring to take risks, Randle saw that there was no one on the King's inside line and rushed straight to the basket, Zhang Feng stepped across the free throw line, and at the same time made a steal, Randle couldn't collect the ball, Zhang Feng successfully broke the ball.

"I can see it, I understand it, I have discovered Zhang Feng's secret" Kenny suddenly shouted excitedly in the live broadcast room.

"Don't get excited, what secret have you discovered?" Barkley patted the table.

"Zhang's defense may seem unremarkable, but in fact he uses a method to anticipate his opponent's behavior, and he is fast and risk-taking, almost always taking a shot," Kenny lamented.

"What's the secret? Could it be that player steals a block without prejudicing? Barkley was puzzled.

"That's because you ignored Zhang Feng's defensive command of the other Kings players, for example, Zhang Feng signaled Willy to defend Clarkson just now, and he should have made such a judgment because he knew Clarkson's technical characteristics very well," Kenny explained with a smile.

"It seems that Kenny has studied Zhang Feng more deeply than me, and I have to stabilize Zhang Feng myself, otherwise I won't be able to give a professional explanation in the future," O'Neill thought thoughtfully.

"So you mean I'm unprofessional?" Barkley was unconvinced.

On the court, Randle was depressed, he couldn't stop Zhang Feng in the defense just now, he felt as if he was being watched by Zhang Feng all the time, and Zhang Feng found an opportunity to break through to the basket to score without paying attention.

Clarkson also feels the same way, every time he tries to shoot, he is either stopped by Zhang Feng in advance, or stopped by other players of the Kings in time, forcing him to break through the interior every time, but he is a three-point master, and he is not as good as a fish in water when he gets to the inside, and the offensive efficiency is greatly reduced, and Zhang Feng is next to him every time these situations occur.

After the two teams played the first quarter, the Lakers only scored a pitiful 10 points, while the Kings were in full bloom, Zhang Feng scored 10 points and 5 assists, and even Willy got 8 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks. Three of Willy's rebounds are frontcourt rebounds, which is rare to see when the Kings play the ultimate small-ball lineup.

In the second quarter, Ball returned to the court. On the defensive end, after adjustment, he still can't escape the fate of being beaten by Zhang Feng, and what is even worse is that on the offensive end, he was repeatedly forced by Zhang Feng to make dribbling mistakes, and even once was returned to the court by Zhang Feng's close defense.

As soon as Ball couldn't open, the Lakers lost their offensive organization point, and the inside couldn't get in, the Lakers all floated on the outside to shoot three-pointers, and at halftime, the Lakers trailed the Kings by 24 points at 32:56.

After a halftime pause, the reporter saw a rare opportunity, forcibly pulled Zhang Feng for an interview, and directly asked questions from Kenny's point of view.

"Kenny claims to have discovered the secret of your defense, what do you think about that?"

"Oh? I didn't even find out my secret, what did he say? ”

"Kenny insists that you can predict your opponent's behavior well, do you admit that?"

"No, I'll just watch more videos to find out how the opponent likes to play in advance."

"Really?"

"Really, we have an old saying in China: watch more, learn more, practice more, without him, only the hand is familiar"

Zhang Feng said so verbally, but did not mention his ability to remember and learn quickly, which is his real secret. But that's why most NBA scouts weren't optimistic about it in the first place, and who would believe that a player who hasn't been basketball for years can perfect his back-to-back skills in just a few days?
