Zhang Zifeng is not iron-clad, Brown did not send him on the court at the beginning of the fourth quarter, and Isaiah Cannan replaced him.

On the Celtics side, Smart is down, Bradley is up.

As soon as Zhang Zifeng got off the court, the 76ers couldn't find a good way to attack.

Roared at by coach Stevens, the Celtics players opened the fourth quarter with a lot of anger.

"Thomas once again singled Stouscas successfully, Zhang Zifeng was not there, and no one helped Stouscas create shooting opportunities. Poor Stauskas is an ornament on the court, and the 76ers head coach should replace him as soon as possible, otherwise he will become a hole in the team's defense! Su Skirt said.

Thomas hit a layup, and on the turn, David Lee gave Isaiah Cannan a big hat.

Crowder hit a three-pointer and the Celtics extended the deficit to seven points.

The 76ers tried to fight back, but they couldn't stop the Celtics' offense. Thomas and Bradley led the team to blossom more, and the Green Shirts firmly maintained their advantage.

Coach Brown looked at it and said it wouldn't work. Quickly replaced Stauskas, replaced by Hollis Thompson, and strengthened the defense.

Although the 76ers stepped up their defense, Crowder still stabbed the 76ers and hit a three-point shot.

The Celtics led by 10 points, 88-78.

With more than nine minutes left in the fourth quarter, Coach Brown sent Zhang Zifeng on the court, along with Stauskas.

The 76ers are ready to launch a final comeback.

Su Skirt saw that Zhang Zifeng was about to play, and said happily, "We saw that Zhang Zifeng was about to play, if Zhang Zifeng played a little later, I dare to say that the 76ers have basically said goodbye to victory in tonight's game!" ”

"Teacher Su, I agree with what you said. Zhang Zifeng has performed very well tonight, with 23 points, 9 assists and 2 blocks so far. The 76ers have been able to hold on with the Celtics until now, and he owes a lot of credit. Although the 76ers are now 10 points behind, his return to the court will give the 76ers who are at an absolute disadvantage what they need, and we look forward to his performance. Yang Yi smiled and responded to Su's skirt.

With only nine minutes left and 10 points behind, Zhang knew he had to pick up the tempo.

Zhang Zifeng received the serve, rushed to the front court quickly with the ball, shook off Bradley with a cross change of direction, stopped urgently, jumped, and shot.

Wow, the ball goes in. 76ers 80:88 Celtics.

The offensive rhythm of the 76ers was completely taken over by Zhang Zifeng, and Zhang Zifeng also entered a crazy stage of grabbing points.

Although Zhang Zifeng broke out, the weak defense line made Zhang Zifeng's recovery half of the credit in vain.

When the game entered the final 1:09, 92:97, the 76ers still trailed by 5 points.

Zhang Zifeng lifted the collar on his jersey and wiped the beads of sweat on his face.

Zhang Zifeng loudly encouraged his teammates and shouted, "Come on, prevent this ball, we have a chance to win!" ”

"You still want to win?" Thomas looked at Zhang Zifeng, his eyes revealing sarcasm, "You won't have a chance, today's victory must belong to the Celts!" ”

"We'll win!" Zhang Zifeng replied very resolutely.

Thomas went to the frontcourt, and Zhang Zifeng stared at Thomas.

Zhang Zifeng knows that Thomas is fast, and his three-point shooting rate is not high, only 34.5%. He stepped back to defend against Thomas' breakaway while raising his right hand in the air.

Thomas 175, Zhang Zifeng 197, a difference of 22 centimeters in height.

Zhang Zifeng's height put a lot of pressure on Thomas.

Facing Zhang Zifeng, Thomas didn't dare to be as simple and rude as he was to deal with Stauskas.

Thomas motioned for his teammates to come over and help, and Zeller stepped forward to the high post.

Thomas used the screen to get inside and dodged Nolens Knoll with a jump, jumping up for a layup.

Thomas must not have known that there is a Chinese saying that the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and he avoids Nolens Knoll. But there's another guy on the 76ers who can run and jump — Grant the block maniac.

When Thomas made it inside, Grant also rushed inside.

"Smack!"

Grant slapped the basketball hard and fanned it down.

Zhang Zifeng, who had been keeping an eye on the basketball, immediately chased the ball, picked up the basketball Zhang Zifeng ran to the front court quickly, and faced Bradley, who was returning to visit, Zhang Zifeng directly shot with three points.

95:97, only 2 points short!

Grant's block, Zhang Zifeng chased three points, and the 76ers' forward and guard combination helped the team narrow the gap to only 2 points. In the first two seasons, Zhang Zifeng and Grant were still opponents in NC+, and this season the two of them teamed up to attack the 76ers! Su skirt explained.

Celtics coach Lee-Stevens called a timeout with a straight face, and what was supposed to be a good situation in the lead turned into such a dangerous situation.

He needs to set up an attacking tactic to get the ball in and secure the win.

Stevens looked at Thomas, then at Bradley.

Thinking that Thomas would feel better tonight, Stevens thought for a moment and said, "Isaiah, wait for you to attack from here, David Lee, Zeller, you will help him create chances." If you're restricted, pass the ball out and give it to Bradley and he'll handle it! ”

The 76ers, on their side, also replaced Stauscas with Hollis Thompson

With only 42 seconds left before the end of the game, this time the offense was crucial for the Celtics.

Both Bradley and Claude stood on either side. Zeller is on the inside to jam Noll and ready to grab rebounds.

Thomas received the ball and turned to face Zhang Zifeng head-on, and David Lee came out to cover.

Thomas started to break through, and Zhang Zifeng hurriedly bypassed David Lee.

As soon as Thomas got rid of Zhang Zifeng, he hit the inside line and made a pull-up jump shot near the free throw line.

Thomas is very confident in his speed, and he never thought that Zhang Zifeng could catch up with him.

Thomas shot confidently, the moment the ball left his fingers.

Zhang Zifeng suddenly hit behind, stared at the basketball, jumped higher than Thomas, and blocked Thomas's pull-up jump shot with one hand with his left hand, completely covering Thomas.

Zhang Zifeng grabbed the ball and just wanted to attack quickly, Bradley dragged back to block, and the rest of the Celtics hurried back to defense.

The fast break was not completed, Zhang Zifeng controlled the ball and came to the frontcourt, and Zhang Zifeng's continuous scoring performance in the first three quarters made the Celtics very nervous, and Bradley saw Zhang Zifeng cross the middle line and pasted it.

Sampson stepped forward to take cover, and Zhang Zifeng immediately bypassed Bradley's defense.

A pitcher should always be confident in his shots.

Zhang Zifeng jumped directly outside the three-point line.

It's a pity that the three-point shot failed to hit this time, and Zhang Zifeng watched the basketball pop up on the inner edge.

Thankfully, Nolens Noll rushed inside and snatched the ball with his speed and bounce.

Seeing that Zhang Zifeng was still on the outside, Nolens Knoll passed the ball out.

Zhang Zifeng didn't hesitate at all, and jumped up again outside the three-point line to shoot.

This time, Zhang Zifeng did not live up to the assist of his teammates, and the basketball fell into the basket in an arc.

"With continuous shooting, Zhang Zifeng is extremely confident on the court. Even if he missed the shot before, in the face of pressure at a critical moment, Zhang Zifeng can still shoot calmly. With that three-point shot, the 76ers put the score in the lead. The 76ers' priority right now is defense. Su Qun shouted.

At this time, there were only 11 seconds left before the end of the game, and Thomas couldn't find a good chance under Zhang Zifeng's defense, so he could only pass the ball to Bradley.

In a hurry, Bradley shot the iron, and Nolens Noll grabbed the rebound.

"Hurry up and foul!" Stevens on the sidelines was the first to react, and when Zeller reacted and wanted to turn around and hug Nolens Noll, Nolens Knoll had already passed the ball.

Zhang Zifeng received the ball and rushed to the front court with the ball.

Zhang Zifeng ran to the front court and did not immediately make a layup, waiting for the time to be consumed.

Two seconds passed quickly, and the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.

At 98:97, the 76ers got off to a good start to the season with a win over the Celtics.

Zhang Zifeng played 37 minutes and scored 32 points, 11 assists, 5 rebounds, 3 blocks and 3 turnovers.

This is the report card handed over by Zhang Zifeng in his debut, in this national live broadcast, in this high-profile game, Zhang Zifeng cut down a data to become a superstar, 25+5+5.

There is no doubt that Zhang Zifeng was voted the best player of the game,

"Zhang, congratulations on your victory." Zhang Zifeng turned around and saw that it was Thomas, a little surprised, but still said, "Thank you, we can win, but we are luckier today." ”

Thomas smiled bitterly and said, "Zhang, you were defeated by you this time. We'll definitely win it back next time! ”

"I'm waiting for the next time I fight you, but then the victory will be ours!" Zhang Zifeng shouted confidently.

Zhang Zifeng and Thomas chatted a few words before parting and going back to the locker room.

At the post-game press conference, Coach Brown brought the best Zhang Zifeng to the press conference.

"Mr. Stevens, what do you think about today's home loss to the 76ers?"

Celtics coach Stevens responded to reporters' questions: "Our performance today is actually good, the only mistake is that we underestimated Zhang Zifeng, a Chinese, before the game, we did not study him thoroughly enough, and did not limit him well enough in the game." Zhang Zifeng defeated us! ”

Stevens simply answered the reporter's question.

Of course, the reporter also understands that it is impossible to continue to be sarcastic in the loser, and it is not good for everyone to make a stiffen.

They asked 76ers coach Brown, "Mr. Brown, Embiid's season reimbursement at the beginning of the season made the 76ers generally not favored before the game, and now against the powerful Celtics, you have won." What do you think of this game? ”

'It was a tight game, Celtic are a great team, they did a great job, but today Lady Luck was on our side and allowed us to shoot a few more balls. Of course we are happy with the win, but today was just one of the 82 games in the season. We also need to keep working hard and stay focused. Brown deliberately tried to downplay the attention that came with the win.

Of course, Brown knows what kind of attention Zhang Zifeng will bring to today's game, but he doesn't want Zhang Zifeng to be exposed too much, which will attract the attention of other teams.

That's not what Brown wants.

But the reporter will not follow his wishes, the reporter routinely asked the coaches of the two teams, and they immediately pointed the camera at Zhang Zifeng.

Zhang Zifeng is the focus of today's attention.

The media seemed to have discussed, and the questions all revolved around Zhang Zifeng.

"Zhang, you made a brilliant swing tonight to help the team defeat the opponent, how do you feel?"

"Zhang, you hit the All-Star stats in the first game of your rookie season, how did you do that?"

"Zhang, Yao Ming squeezed O'Neal out of the starting XI in his rookie season with the Chinese. Will you be the starting point in the West this season? ”

……

After making a name for himself in NC+, Zhang Zifeng began to get used to the questions of these reporters.

Zhang Zifeng replied with a smile, "We are very happy to win this game. This proves that we are not a weak team to be slaughtered. Whoever dares to despise us, they will pay a terrible price. As for being able to win, it's a credit to the whole team, such as Grant's defense, Stauskas's shooting. If it weren't for their efforts, we would have lost a long time ago. It was a team win! ”

As for the difficult question about the all-star vote, Zhang Zifeng will not be stupid enough to answer.

When the press conference ended, the 76ers players hurriedly boarded the bus back to the hotel.

Damn the Celts, there is not even hot water, how to take a bath. Zhang Zifeng: They were all anxious to rush back to the hotel and take a comfortable shower.

Sitting on the bus, Zhang Zifeng's mobile phone received a lot of well-wishing text messages and missed calls.

Zhang Zifeng replied with a light and heavy choice.

After all, the NBA is different from NC+, playing well in NC+ does not mean that you can still perform well in the NBA, and many players have verified this with actual proofs.

Before the start of the new season, Zhang Zifeng received a lot of attention.

The discussion, analysis and prediction about the order before the draft have made Zhang Zifeng always a hot topic in the news.

In this game, everyone's attention to Zhang Zifeng is also very high.

Zhang Zifeng is the sixth player in 76ers history to score at least 20 points in his NBA debut. Before the game, many people commented that Zhang Zifeng's pick was too high, and it was not worth the 76ers to use the third pick to choose.
