The whistle blew and it went into halftime break.

When he walked off the field, Devin. Booker's previous haughty expression was completely gone, and his eyes were full of loss when he lowered his head.

originally thought that Zhang Zifeng could be fully suppressed today, but the situation did not change suddenly like now.

He turned out to be the guy who was suppressed.

Listening to the scene chanting Zhang Zifeng's name, German. Booker felt like he had been slapped in the face by Zhang Zifeng.

At halftime, Barkley quipped, "I can't imagine Devin who did so well in the first quarter. Booker, now he is completely down. None other than the first section of German. Is Booker knocked on the drug? It was still in the first quarter that Zhang Zifeng fell asleep, so he let Devin. Booker has a chance to perform! ”

Smith responded, "Compared to Zhang Zifeng, Devon. Booker still looks very weak, and he needs more training to become a talent.

Miller agrees: "Yes, both technically and mentally, Devon. Booker is far inferior to Zhang Zifeng. I can't imagine his pre-match rhetoric, where his confidence came from! Now anyone with a discerning eye can see the gap between him and Zhang Zifeng. Devin needs to be humble in order to recognize his shortcomings and improve himself! ”

Walking into the locker room, Zhang Zifeng felt the pain he had forgotten just now hit instantly.

The whole body felt like it had been pricked by a needle, it hurt, it hurt, it hurt, it hurt.

Seeing Zhang Zifeng's painful expression, coach Brown hurriedly asked, "Jack, are you okay?" ”

Zhang Zifeng showed a smile that was more ugly than crying and said, "It's okay, it's just that the place where I fell on my body hurts a little!" Spray the medicine and you should be fine! ”

When the team doctor Jones heard this, he hurriedly came over and said, "Jack, take off your clothes and let me check it!" ”

Zhang Zifeng heard that he was about to take off his clothes, and the other players of the 76ers immediately took a breath when they saw it.

I saw that Zhang Zifeng's body was purple and almost green, which was shocking to see.

Grant scolded, "Damn it, that bastard of the Suns." In the second half, Lao Tzu must give him a hard time! ”

Jones examined it carefully, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "It's okay, it's all hard injuries." Jack, when the game is over, I'll help you massage the bruises, and now I can only use sprays to help you relieve the pain. ”

Zhang Zifeng nodded, and Jones took the potion and sprayed it at Zhang Zifeng's scar.

When the potion was first sprayed, it was a stinging sensation.

Zhang Zifeng gritted his teeth and didn't shout.

Watching Zhang Zifeng fall to the ground again and again, it was really scary.

Brown wanted Zhang Zifeng to rest more on the court and try to control Zhang Zifeng's playing time.

Otherwise, Zhang Zifeng was really injured, and I was afraid that the fan boss would kill him.

And Zhang Zifeng has just recovered from his injury, so he is really not suitable for playing for too long.

"Jack, you've helped the team enough, it's time for the other players to take on their share of the responsibility. I'm going to control your playing time, ok! Brown looked at Zhang Zifeng, who was grinning because of the pain, and said.

Knoll immediately said, "Yes, Jack. I'm going to get a big contract. You're in the limelight, but you've covered up our demeanor. If I don't get a big contract, I'll be angry! ”

Grant also smiled and said, "Yes, this year is an important year for me, and whether I can get a big contract depends on my performance in the past two years." You don't want me to get ahead, do you? ”

Other players also advised.

“ok！ ok！ ok！ It's as if I'm the team's top player, dominating the ball and not giving you a chance to get ahead. Then let me take a break, everyone, come on. Gotta win this game. Don't let the fans down and go home! Zhang Zifeng said.

"Don't worry, look at me!"

"With me here, you don't have to worry!"

……

If it was possible, how could Zhang Zifeng want to use such a desperate way.

Who the fuck is willing to risk slapping people in the face and elbowing again and again to rush into the basket, Lao Tzu is not a masochist.

He is also afraid that he will be injured again and leave him with a lifelong hidden danger.

As a last resort!

Entering the NBA, what player doesn't want to experience the playoffs, doesn't want to win a championship.

But just think about how this kind of thing can be realized, you must take action!

The team has lost 13 in a row, with 4 wins and 19 losses so far this season, and is demoralized and unmotivated.

Zhang Zifeng doesn't take the lead, how can he drive other players to work hard.

If you don't boost the morale of the team, how can you steal points in the next games and win the qualification for the playoffs.

Seeing that the team's morale was pulled up by himself, Zhang Zifeng knew that his risky move was worth it.

In the Suns' locker room, head coach Hornacek was very unhappy with Devin Booker's performance on the court, and his obsession with singles not only slowed down the team's offensive tempo but also affected the team's morale.

"In the second half, stay on the pitch and reflect on it. If you don't figure it out, you won't have to play in the second half! Hornacek shouted as he stared at Devin Booker.

"What?" Devin Booker shouted in surprise when he heard Hornacek's words.

Unfortunately, Hornacek was not interested in paying attention to him at all, and began to explain the next tactics with the tactical board.

In the second half, Devin Booker was pressed to the bench by the head coach.

In the third quarter, Suns Knight and other players gradually regained their touch, shot a few three-pointers, and tried to catch up with the score.

On the 76ers' side, without Zhang Zifeng, the team is missing an important scoring point.

But with the momentum brought by Zhang Zifeng, they continued to run hard to maintain the lead in the score.

Seeing that the game was in a scorching state, Hornacek turned his head to look at Devin Booker, "Have you figured it out?" ”

"What?" Devin Booker wondered what the coach was going to make himself think.

Seeing that Devin Booker still didn't understand why he had him sitting on the sidelines, Hornacek sighed.

Devin Booker, a rookie selected by the team with a first-round pick, is the future of the team.

Although this guy is young and vigorous, he still has strength, and he can see his former self in him.

However, what Hornacek knows is that Devin Booker still needs to hone more to become a real talent.

If you can't learn to grow in adversity, you won't become a superstar.

Thinking of this, Hornacek couldn't help but cast his eyes on Zhang Zifeng of the 76ers on the other side, who is also a rookie, but he is a general, knows how to adjust himself on the court, and when he feels bad, he is not obsessed with shooting, but desperately kills to the restricted area.

Zhang Zifeng's performance made Hornacek appreciate it very much.

But alas, it's the opponent's player.

Hornacek turned his head to look at Devin Booker and said, "Devon, do you know what Zhang Zifeng is better than you?" ”

German. Booker said unwillingly: "It's the ability to break through and score!" ”

Honacek shook his head and said, "No, it's his dedication to winning and his ability to read team games." Knowing that it doesn't feel good, give up the shot you do best, and hit the basket to cause damage. Knowing that there was danger, he still rushed forward fearlessly. Lead by example, lead the team and lead the team forward. These are all areas where you are inferior to the other person. Devin If you want to win against him, you have to learn from his strengths and make yourself stronger. Otherwise, you'll never win him! ”

Devin Booker heard the head coach's guidance and looked at the 76ers, who had become more active on the court because of Zhang Zifeng's existence, and was silent.

See German. Booker felt his painstaking efforts, and Hornacek substituted him in the sixth minute of the third quarter.

After the tempering of Zhang Zifeng's blow, German. Booker matured a lot.

He no longer thinks about defeating Zhang Zifeng, and doesn't want to defeat Zhang Zifeng comprehensively, but uses the way he is best at and is most familiar with to help the team.

German. Booker is trying to make a change, less on his own, and more on teamwork.

He and Chandler did a pick-and-roll on the perimeter, then ran out of the open space before shooting.

The ball hollows into the net.

Devin Booker scored seven straight points to give the Suns a 60-58 lead.

Devin Booker has matured, but the 76ers have become more active as a team.

Knoll forced his position on the inside, relying on his height and strength to beat Chandler twice in a row.

The Suns' defense this season has not been good, and they have only been supported by Chandler alone.

But Chandler is 34 years old, and he is no longer as energetic as he was when he was younger, and he can run all over the court.

Seeing that Chandler was a little exhausted, Hornacek reacted quickly and instructed his players to strengthen the interior defense.

However, at this time, Knoll used his containment on the inside, pulled the opponent's defensive attention and passed the ball to Grant.

Grant quickly cut inside to put the basketball into the basket.

With the efforts of the whole team, 76 went on a 13-2 run to end the third quarter with an eight-point lead at 83-75.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Suns narrowed the gap to 79-85, and the 76ers scored six straight points to take a double-digit lead.

Stauskars and Thompson hit two three-pointers in a row to give the 76ers a 97-81 lead over the Suns.

Noll hit a three-pointer to give the 76ers a 106-95 lead over the Suns.

Sun Knight, Devon. Booker didn't give up the opportunity to score seven points in a row, and when there were only two points left in the fourth quarter, 102-106, the Suns only trailed by four points.

At this time, Brown hurriedly sent Zhang Zifeng, who was the most accurate in the free throws, to the court, firstly to stabilize the situation, and secondly, to be afraid that the opponent would use foul tactics.

"Jack, now that we're ahead, we don't need you to break through. You try to stall as much as you can when you get on the field. Knoll they'll help you cover and create chances, you shoot when you get the chance, there's no right timing,? ”

Zhang Zifeng nodded!
