After winning the vital morale battle of the No. 5, a large amount of positive factors emerged in the Kings, and the players were full of confidence and the team's playoffs! After Randy Fery's match against Kobe, perhaps Kobe's 74-point performance shocked him. Since that game, Randy Fery has become one of the most hard-working players in the team, and he has practiced to an exhausted position every day. He talked with Zhang Weifeng many times. Randy Fery hopes to be an excellent No. 2 player, and Kobe is his goal. Randy Fery hopes to be one of Zhang Weifeng's capable helpers, and he does what he says! The match against the Kings at home is against the Kings.
After scoring 27 points in the game, Randy Ferye entered a scoring mode. In the transition from a double-athlete to a purebred second position, Randy Ferye did very quickly. The Kings defeated the Lakers, Clippers, Timberwolves. In four matches, Randy Ferye was able to average 22.5 points per game! The shooting percentage was as high as 48.8 and the three-point shooting percentage was 39.1. In this performance, Randy Ferye has attracted the attention of other teams in the league. Some experts also said that Randy Ferye, who has three-point shooting ability, is likely to become an All-Star player in the future. As for how long it takes, it is related to how hard he works!
In fact, during the Kings' bottomed out and rebounded and won all the way, Calderon was the one who attracted much attention. When he exchanged Haus for Calderon, the fans were still very puzzled and thought how Calderon could compare to the value of a potential inside line. However, after Calderon started, everyone was surprised that the "Super Six Point Guard" was so outstanding. In the last five games, Calderon averaged 13.8 points, 12.2 assists and 1.6 turnovers per game. In this proportion, the assist-and-turnover ratio was 7.6. Calderon's current strength was shocked by everyone. The general managers of other teams couldn't help but envy Pitri.
In fact, Petri has been very glorious recently. He has been calling for the best general manager of the league this year! No one is optimistic about the series of transactions at the beginning, but these transactions have made a lot of money again and again! Needless to say, Zhang Weifeng! I believe that the Bucks hate him for why he gave up! And for both Chinese, why is Yi Jianlian so much worse than Zhang Weifeng? But this is the deal! When he gave up Zhang Weifeng and asked Yi Jianlian, he really regretted it! Besides, Calderon and Randy Ferye? I believe that the Raptors, who are already at the bottom of the East and the Timberwolves, who are at the bottom of the West, have regretted making a deal with the Kings! Now, except for Felton, the Kings, all other players perform very well. In this way, there are also news that the Kings will give up Felton after the end of the season, and Petri came out to refute the rumors as soon as possible!
Subsequently, in order to calm the outside world's doubts and to stabilize Felton's suspicion! In the next two games, Felton won the starting position again. In these two games, Felton played well and was able to contribute 8.5 assists per game. After Calderon substituted, he was still able to maintain 7 assists.
The Kings are now using Princeton tactics, and Zhang Weifeng is the core, with Randy Ferry + Calderon in the backcourt, and Felton and Somons on the bench, inside, and Brad Miller and Amir Johnson. The situation of the Kings is gradually getting better.
