In fact, it is an exaggeration to say that Durant is a replacement for Wang Feng.

At this stage, Wang Feng is not qualified to be compared with Durant at all, and there is a big gap between the two sides.

But recruiting Durant this summer offseason has always been one of the Warriors' strategic directions.

Kevin. Durant's contract expires this summer, and as one of the league's top stars, most teams in the league are gearing up to compete.

The Warriors also have thoughts about Durant, and although the Warriors are limited by the team's salary space, the Warriors have other advantages, and the excellent roster depth is very attractive to Durant who is hungry for a championship.

And, the Warriors will be prepared to do both.

In General Manager Myers' plan, the team will continue to actively negotiate a contract extension agreement with Wang Feng.

At the same time, he will spare no effort to pursue Durant after the summer offseason, and once he has the opportunity to win Durant, then Wang Feng naturally has no need to stay.

Durant has completely crushed Wang Feng in terms of personal strength, influence, number of fans and market value, even if Wang Feng has a huge Chinese market behind him.

Of course, all this is based on the premise that Durant is not ready to renew his contract with the Thunder, and the Warriors have a chance.

The management of the Warriors is not a time-traveler like Wang Feng, they don't know what the situation will be in the free market this summer, and what Durant thinks in his heart, so in the case of a conflict between Wang Feng and Green, they can afford to mediate the conflict as much as possible and retain the possibility of Wang Feng's contract extension to the team.

Wang Feng didn't know how the team's general manager Myers and head coach Kerr talked to Green, but in the following games, Green's attitude on the court changed and began to gradually take the initiative to pass the ball and cover Wang Feng.

It seemed as if everything had passed, but it was only on the surface, and there was no verbal communication between Green and Wang Feng.

Whether on or off the field, the two treat each other as if they were transparent people, and they don't communicate at all.

……

After a few games, the time finally came on February 13, 2016.

All-Star Weekend is here!

The 2016 NBA All-Star Weekend kicked off in Toronto, Canada.

The Warriors have not played since their Feb. 10 win away against the Phoenix Suns.

The Warriors players who participated in the All-Star Weekend flew together to Toronto for the All-Star Weekend.

The NBA's All-Star Weekend generally lasts for three days, with the first day of the Celebrity Game and the Rookie Challenge, and the second day of the Skills Competition, including the Skills Challenge, the Three-Point Contest and the Slam Dunk Contest.

On the third day, it's the highlight of All-Star Weekend, the All-Star Game.

Wang Feng in these three days, not a day has fallen, all have activities, on the 13th he will play in the All-Star Rookie Challenge, on behalf of the international team against the United States local team, on the 14th three-point contest, the Warriors Curry, Thompson, Wang Feng three outside players all participated, and there is the 15th All-Star Game.

Wang Feng is very happy to get so many appearances, he is still in the rising stage of popularity and strength, and more exposure will help him get a bigger contract after entering the free market in the summer.

……

"Welcome to the 2016 NBA All-Star Weekend, Rookie Challenge."

The CCTV sports channel on the other side of the ocean is broadcasting the NBA All-Star Rookie Game live.

In fact, as an appetizer before the All-Star Game, the Rookie Game has not received much attention, no one cares about the final result of a group of rookies playing around there, and the ratings of the Rookie Challenge have always been tepid.

This has directly led to the multiple restructuring of the rookie challenge, from the confrontation of first- and second-year rookies to the confrontation of the commentator draft system, and last year it was restructured into the confrontation between the local team of the United States and the rookies of the international team, hoping to increase competitiveness and enhance the viewing of the game.

However, no matter how the system is restructured, the rookie game is a change of soup and not a change of medicine, and a group of little-known rookies participate, among which there may occasionally be a few more popular players, such as the 15-year-old champion Downs, the 14-year-old champion Wiggins, etc., but the popularity of the vast majority of players is generally not high, whether it is in the United States or other countries, it is difficult to pull up the banner of ratings.

But this time, the ratings of the rookie game in China are quite high.

For no other reason, Wang Feng will represent the international team in the rookie competition!

Tracing back to the last player who participated in the All-Star Rookie Challenge, it was the United Arab Emirates in the first year of the All-Star Game in 08, it has been a full 8 years ago, and the Chinese fans have really waited long enough, although the gold content of the Rookie Challenge is extremely low, but the majority of Chinese fans are still very much looking forward to Wang Feng's wonderful performance on the field.

"As a Chinese player, Wang Feng naturally represents the international team." The CCTV sports channel commentator introduced: "Before the start of the All-Star Weekend, Wang Feng played a total of 52 games in the regular season, playing an average of 31 minutes per game, contributing 19.4 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 2.4 steals, shooting 46% from the field and 48% from three-point range!" Perfect on both ends of the floor. ”

"It's a pity that in February, Wang Feng's state declined slightly, and the Warriors' tactics made appropriate adjustments, so that his original average of 20+ points per game declined, but even so, the outstanding and efficient performance still made Wang Feng successfully selected for the All-Star Game, including the three-point contest he signed up for, and the audience and friends have been looking forward to it in the past three days!"

While the commentators were making introductions, the rookies of the United States team and the international team also appeared one after another under the introduction of the DJ on the spot.

"Oh, we saw that Wang Feng was the starter on the international team's side, and in addition to Wang Feng, the international team also sent 14-year champion Andrew. Wiggins, Knicks player Kristaps. Porzingis, Nicola of the Nuggets. Jokic and Emmanuel. Moodier, they are very good players. ”

"With these players to partner, Wang Feng will definitely be able to play very well!"

……

"Rookie Challenge."

Wang Feng was doing warm-up exercises on the court while thinking in his heart.

"How should you play a show like this...... Of course, do everything possible to brush up on points! ”
