Blake really didn't expect that he could play in the third quarter of the Knicks, when the two sides were deadlocked, although Blake was well prepared for this game, but this kind of opportunity has not been given such a heavy responsibility since Blake fell into the 'rookie wall' and did not come out last season.

Just looking at Mir's encouraging eyes, looking at Peyton's extremely surprised expression, Blake knew that he had indeed been given a good opportunity.

Blake is very grateful to the Knicks for a series of arrangements for him, and he is also very grateful to the Knicks for paying attention to him, although he was included in the twelve-man list by the Knicks last season, Blake knows the limits of his ability, and his style of play is too similar to the team's absolute main Gong Feng.

Thinking of Gong Feng, Blake smiled bitterly, this was a legend in college, and everything he got in his first rookie season was too legendary, and Blake just watched Gong Feng get those achievements in his rookie season and enter the NBA. In Blake's heart, the current Gong Feng doesn't do anything, and it has a great impact on him, and even when he sees the thin Gong Feng, Blake imitates many of his playing styles to train.

Blake remembers that after becoming a rookie from the Knicks, once, in the early stages of the regular season, he came to the court early to practice, and he was very attentive to the usual training method of Gong Feng that he heard from the Knicks staff.

But what Blake didn't find out at that time was that Gong Feng's training time was at what time, and Blake, who was concentrating on training, didn't even notice Gong Feng's arrival.

Blake, who was sweating profusely and resting after completing a few sets of training, took a towel and said thank you, only to see who was handing him the towel.

After Gong Feng looked at Blake, who was extremely surprised and even had a panicked expression on the team's younger brother, he patted Blake on the shoulder very happily, and asked more happily and casually: "How long do you practice for my training?" Didn't feel unwell, did you? Mark that guy really, did you really tell a rookie about my training? ”

Blake's expression was a little gloomy when he heard this, and the moment he heard this, Blake thought that Gong Feng didn't like someone to learn from his experience and training.

Gong Feng took the basketball and began to warm up and shoot the basket outside the three-point line, and after not hearing Blake's answer for a long time, he looked at Blake with a little frown, who lowered his head and had a very gloomy expression.

As if thinking of something, Gong Feng smiled at that time, and then asked: "You were born in 80, and I am 82, are you my predecessor in terms of age?" But this is the NBA, this is the NBA that needs to be decisive, resolute, and big-hearted, and my achievements are not what you can compare with now. ”

Without waiting for Blake's response, or without Blake directly choosing to oppose, Gong Feng directly began to say: "Do you know why the Knicks chose you in the end? ”

"When we chose you and Mor Williams, there was a big disagreement, and it was me who made the final decision, do you know why?"

"Because I'm old, because I play a lot like you? Because I can't be a threat to you? Blake didn't know why he replied like this with such a gunpowder smell at the time, and Blake, who knew that it was going to be finished, who knew that Blake was waiting for the sound of Gong Feng's laughter.

"My experience is completely different from yours, so many things are not comparable, but your three reasons can only be said, one point is indeed the reason why I made the decision, and a small reason."

"Because I found you steady! That's a kind of stability that I and Jay don't have, and Mo? Although Williams has the outside strength to become a second-tier player in the league, the Knicks don't need him if he is not afraid to pass the word. ”

"The two of us played each other in the college league, do you remember? You were also the No. 1 person in the NCAA at the time, and in the battle at that time, I found your stability, and even I didn't destroy your stability in many ways, and then we still used Jay's blocking and pick-and-roll, and let him break through you, so that we won that battle. ”

"Sure enough, after I left, you let your team win the championship as the main force, presumably at that time, you began to imitate some of my playing styles and methods, right?"

"I don't have any problem with any of the training you use, but I'd love to ask, do you know why I'm training the way I do? Or do you know what kind of accumulation I had before this training, or what goals and objectives I want to achieve in this training? ”

After Blake heard Gong Feng's few questions, his face gradually became serious.

"The way Mark gave you my training, it's not that he's an easy person to be impressed, it's that Mark is an old man in the league and an old man in the Knicks to give you an experience as a newcomer, or he also wants to tell you something!"

"Everyone in this alliance is unique, maybe the final effect is the same, but how to produce this effect, but not anyone can figure it out, you have to know what your current position in the alliance is, or what you think about your future, what you can get."

"In the end, I just want to say, if you have my touch, if you can want to be the league's top shooter and dynamic vision organizer, you can continue my training, if there is any problem, if you want to ask, I will also tell you, but I don't guarantee that in my mode, you can continue to be successful."

Looking at the bow peak after finishing speaking, he began to train himself, but Blake himself froze, yes, how can he be stronger than the current bow peak in the future?

After that, Blake didn't ask Gong Feng about anything about training, only two weeks after he trained himself, he would buy some drinks or ask about certain things as a sparring partner for Gong Feng, and he also asked about some of the confusion he had encountered.

Gong Feng faced such Blake, every time he just gave a choice and let Blake choose himself, but he never made any decision for Blake.

After a season like this, Blake asked fewer and fewer questions, and the conversation with Gong Feng was not about training, but about starting to be friends, and Gong Feng slowly accepted Blake in the process.

Blake, long after the second season, asked Bow Peak about his decision to stay with the Knicks, but Bow Peak didn't really persuade Blake to leave in that more serious conversation.

"The Knicks can still use the contract to control you for at least two years! Your presence and skills are indeed a complement to the team, in my absence, you performed very well, just Blake, I will not persuade you to have a straightforward showdown with the management, if I were you, I would only choose to show my attitude, the current team will definitely not make any big moves because of you, unless you can show the value that other teams need, it will be difficult for you to leave this season, and once your choice is disgusting to Mir, believe me, Mir will not care about the salary of hundreds of thousands a year. ”

Blake knew that Bow didn't see himself as a brother, especially after he wanted to leave the Knicks.

But Barry, who has left the Knicks, directly named Blake: "You can't be compared with Gong Feng, he does everything he wants for the championship, he doesn't care about what kind of contract he will get in the future, because he represents the top level of the league, and you are thinking about your own future, the members of the championship team are indeed an honor, but the relationship with you is not very big, Remember, everything in this alliance revolves around everything you want. ”

Blake knows that what Gong Feng said is already the largest scale that can be said from the position of a friend, as the core of the Knicks, he will put the championship first and will not do anything for Blake.

Blake himself knows that he is useful for the Knicks, and although the extent of his usefulness is limited, it is indeed much more useful than most players in the league who are paid the same salary as Blake.

Unless he can prove something, Blake knows that no team will pay the price of being useful to the Knicks for him, and this much-anticipated Knicks-Suns matchup is Blake's best chance to prove himself. (To be continued.) )
