Chapter 130: Friends and Declarations
After the game, Gong Feng didn't have time to catch up with Wang Zhizhi, the next day was the away back-to-back, and now the relationship between the two has become closer through a summer, especially when Gong Feng revealed that he would participate in the national team, the relationship between the two people has developed in the direction of good buddies.
Under Gong Feng's suggestion, Wang Zhizhi spent a summer and a summer of hard training to improve his English speaking level to a new level, especially in the field of basketball terminology.
In a summer, Wang Zhizhi and the assistant coaches of the Lakers team have been constantly communicating, about the triangle offensive coach, deepening their tactical literacy, coupled with a lot of homework, Wang Zhizhi is now a Lakers main rotation player in the Lakers team who has enough playing time, enough qualifications to play singles, and qualifications to make mistakes, especially now that O'Neal has no way to play, Wang Zhizhi's average playing time per game is close to 37 minutes......
Gong Feng was already on the phone, and he knew Wang Zhizhi's current situation earlier, and he was happy for him from the bottom of his heart, there are only four basketball players left in the United States to make a living, and each of them is worth cherishing, as for not being in a team or something, does it have anything to do with Gong Feng?
The team is a team, friends are friends, as a professional player, you must distinguish between your position and your friends, especially Gong Feng is not the leader of the Wizards, not the absolute core of the Wizards team, and is still in the rookie period now, Gong Feng must know how to do what is most beneficial to himself.
Gong Feng has already felt some changes in the Wizards team, and the undercurrent in the Wizards' secret is already surging, but everyone is patient, waiting for the final conclusion. For the vast majority of the Wizards. The most important thing for me is to be able to complete my contract, to have a team to play in next year, and to be able to get a contract that satisfies me after the contract ends.
Simmons was the first to go out because of his form and intoxication...... That's the cruelty that comes from competitive sports, especially now that sixteen players like the Wizards are in their prime to compete for the 15-man roster.
The Wizards traveled back-to-back to Cleveland the next day. The second time in four days against the Cavaliers, even if they were a little tired against the Lakers, the Wizards did not give the Cavaliers any chance, especially the bow peak, who was a little depressed by Kobe's restrictions, turned on his own mode, and opened the gap between the two sides to more than 25 points in the third quarter, and he had already cut down 20+16 in the third quarter.
Gong Feng has also begun to show his fangs in the Wizards!
There's no player who doesn't like to be around players who love to pass the ball, and the Wizards players won't be one of them, especially with Gong Feng, who can shoot three-pointers to open up the defensive distance and pass the ball for players to score directly. Players who can quickly lead three or more people to quickly counterattack and score...... Of the main rotation players the Wizards can play right now, there is no one other than one who doesn't like Bow Peak with the ball.
This person is undoubtedly Jerry? Stackhouse ...... Tyrone? Lu didn't like either of them, and even felt very worried about his current position, because Jerry and Gong Feng both played point guards......
Kwamei is slowly increasing his status and increasing his shooting power, and he does not dare to provoke control of the ball at the beginning, Jordan likes to be with Gong Feng. Make it easy for yourself to attack, let alone others.
Jerry averaged 25 points in seven games, though. In the top 10 of the league's scoring list, Jerry's average shooting percentage is also as high as 56 percent, which is not bad, but how many assists per game is Jerry? Five? There are five, and three of them have the credit of the bow peak to play a decisive role in it...... Anyone who plays with the Wizards now can see that when they meet the top teams in the league. Who is the person who is the focus of the defense?
If you say Jerry? Stackhouse doesn't face much pressure from Bow Peak? That's certainly not true, but what else can Jerry do now? Learn Hughes to put the defense first? Or choose to be a shooter on the perimeter?
Jieli, who is much smaller than himself, feels very unconvinced in his heart in the face of the yellow man's Gong Feng and the Gong Feng who is just twenty years old.
This is when Bow Peak is fighting against the knights. Why do you want to show your fangs on the offensive end, but such a bow peak makes Collins also feel a little headache, a little relieved, and a little overwhelmed...... Looking at Kwame, who also got 20+14, Collins felt for the first time what it means to be inseparable, difficult to give up......
"It's not that my Gongfeng can't attack and score, but my Gongfeng puts the team's victory in the first place, maybe my offensive strength is not as good as yours for the time being, but my team can definitely beat the team you lead!" This is Gong Feng's current self-confidence, and it is also a silent declaration to everyone...... Of course, the power of such a statement is a bit small, as the Wizards are now facing a team that is at the bottom of the league.
And there is something bad about this kind of declaration...... It's easy to be slapped in the face by a superstar, especially when Gong Feng faces next, or Payton, the second-best defense in the league's point guards, even more so.
Payton in this game taught Gong Feng what is called a headache trash talk, what is an assist, and what is called a run-and-gun team, but Payton just didn't teach Gong Feng how to win the game.
Although Gong Feng's whole court was disturbed by Payton's trash talk, and there was no way to score or assist to get to the double, Gong Feng, who was disturbed by Payton, would rather not understand the slang in Payton's mouth...... Although Payton scored 14+16+4 super data in this game, and although Lewis scored 37 points with Payton's support, Payton still couldn't lead the team to continue to win.
When Gong Feng saw Peyton's arrogant head and contemptuous eyes looking at him, as if Gong Feng was just a small person to him and could be destroyed by him Peyton at any time, Gong Feng still felt Peyton's last-minute jealousy of himself, that extreme jealousy......
In this league, no player wants to be sympathized with by anyone, and it is impossible for a person who is sympathized to become a superstar in the league, so even if Gong Feng sees anything now, he will not say anything or ask anything, and after meeting Payton in the next game, he will let this famous old guy know that it is no longer his era, it is now my Gong Feng's era...... Yes, Gong Feng will only do that.
In this game, it is Jerry, Jordan and Kwame who stand up together, and the SuperSonics can only be regarded as second-rate (Lewis) and third-rate (others) in terms of defensive level, except for point guard, which is still the top level in the league.
Kwame Brown scored 28 points, 18 rebounds and 5 assists, and Jordan scored 23 points alone...... Maybe never again.
If it weren't for Lewis's excellent hand, shooting 16 of 19 from the field, the game would have been over long ago, and the current supersonic speed would have already reached the time for a change.
Payton can't do more for the team as he did in the past, he can compete for the scoring list in a season's game, he can run around the court in a season, he can defend the core of the opposing team's perimeter in a season, he can talk trash to his opponents, he can make his offense, he can let his defense continue to lead the team forward......
With a very nostalgic and extremely complicated feeling, Gong Feng met two old men who were older than Payton in his home court, and two old men who were entangled with Jordan for two seasons in the Finals...... Twin Evils from Utah!
It's not too much to say 'old men', but I really don't want to say that they are failures, and I just want to say that they are in the league, because they have already become a symbol of a city's recognition. (To be continued.) )
