Chapter 36: Reversal to win
(With everyone's efforts, Beidou's performance this week is better than last week. However, we should not be satisfied with it. Why not try to achieve a better ranking? Keep looking forward, isn't this the spirit of our competitive sports?)
No more dunks?! No more playing with the pace? Reggie Seyus was stunned off the court. Zhang Weifeng's teammates were very happy. After making waves of roars, they all applauded Zhang Weifeng's performance on the sidelines.
Pick-roll, or pick-roll. After getting rid of the defender, Zhang Weifeng scored another two points, with a score of 75:74, and the Kings overtook for the first time. The pick-roll was still the "opponent" Spencer Hawys.
Turning back, Zhang Weifeng stretched out his hand to Hawys, slightly stunned, Hawys also reached out to hit him.
Reggie Siyus smiled slightly. This is what teammates should do. Zhang Weifeng's approach is what a generous and ambitious player should do. The Kings' team will probably change in the future, and that day will definitely not make people wait for too long.
Fierce competitions are often the most enjoyable.
Zhang Weifeng roared and jumped off the basket.
The assisted Zhang Weifeng dunked Spencer Hawys.
Zhang Weifeng had a strong smile on his face, looking at his expressionless teammate No. 31, Zhang Weifeng pressed his ears and roared in a low voice: "Spencer, show your strength, you can come and compete with me. Then, let's compete. What the Kings need is the Warriors! It's not a coward, we don't need to intrigue here."
Looking at Zhang Weifeng's hand stretched out, Hawys's eyes became sharp. Although Zhang Weifeng's words were straight, it was the best solution. There was a complicated look in his eyes, Hawys nodded slightly and stretched out his hand.
"Come on!!" The two of them stared at each other and said in unison.
Looking at the two on the court, this is the Kings rookie this year. Will they become the hope of the Kings? Reggie Seius suddenly thought in his mind.
In the second half of the third quarter, Kevin Martin's touch was still average. Seeing Zhang Weifeng getting better and better on the court, Reggie Seius simply replaced Martin and replaced Artest.
It is difficult for ordinary people to understand Artest's temper. Although it is undeniable that there may be some problems in his mentality, he is definitely a person with temperament. He absolutely does a good job in his teammates. When Arte is calm, he can always keep a clear mind. His calmness at that time is what Zhang Weifeng needs most, because Arte would work hard to defend and pass the ball first.
"Swish~" The Jazz's home fans booed hard. Zhang Weifeng had already made many such goals in the third quarter! In the energy stadium, Zhang Weifeng was really glorious.
Zhang Weifeng received a breakthrough pass from Atai, Zhang's hand hit the score, with a score of 81:78, and the lead reached 3 points.
Jerry Sloan's face was cold. The Jazz were completely beaten by the Kings. How could he bear it, who was arrogant by nature? After calling a timeout, Sloan began to yell at the players on the sidelines.
"Good job! How is the shooting feeling? It's no worse than a dunk!" Atai walked beside Zhang Weifeng and laughed.
Zhang Weifeng smiled boldly and responded loudly: "Yes, it's very good. I feel addicted."
Hawyth, who followed behind him, smiled rare, and bursts of laughter were heard on the entire king's bench.
After the timeout, although the Jazz's offensive efficiency has improved a lot, it did not affect the final score, because the Kings' offense is still very smooth. After three quarters, the score is 90:88 (the visiting team is in front and the home team is in back).
"In this quarter, show your strength, you attack, I will defend." Zhang Weifeng whispered to Hawyce's face.
Zhang Weifeng is ambitious and it is difficult to get what he wants. This requires help, so it is also necessary to drive the growth of teammates around him.
Hawys is a white insider, 213cm tall and 112kg weight. He has played defender for many years in high school, and his ball control skills are better than most insiders. As long as he is trained carefully, he may achieve something in time. Generally speaking, newcomers lack courage in offense, which is also the process of their transformation like professional players.
Zhang Weifeng inspired Hawys, and he also wanted to see how much energy this guy who has been challenging him can have.
On the defensive end, Zhang Weifeng also took the blame on the court. Although Carlos Boozer was strong, Zhang Weifeng found a way to face him and gained the upper hand in the competition in only a few rounds.
However, the contest between Zhang Weifeng and Boozer did not last long, which may be Jerry Sloan's arrangement. After all, Zhang Weifeng is not the core of the Kings, and Sloan will not spend much effort on him.
Hawys seemed to be stimulated. Whenever he had the chance, he would launch a strong attack in the inside. Although he was always destroyed by Carlos Boozer in various ways, his ruthlessness was really eye-catching. When he was replaced by Reggie Seius, Hawys's data was 12 points, 10 rebounds and 5 assists. This is the data of a supportive player, and there was also a hint.
Zhang Weifeng performed very actively on the defensive end. Before the end, he finally left a deep impression on Boozer as he wished. Two consecutive blocks made Boozer a little dizzy.
With only 43 seconds left before the end of the game, the two teams finally decided the winner. Martin, who had always felt cold, finally made a crucial three-pointer, expanding the score to 7 points. His data was also frozen at 11 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, but 3 of 16 shots was the highlight.
After the Jazz called a timeout, although Deron Williams and Andre Kirirenko made a three-pointer in an attempt to save their fate, it was too late. In the end, the Kings defeated the Utah Jazz 114:112 away and won the fourth preseason victory.
Reggie Siyus was so happy that he couldn't find North. The Kings actually won the Supersonics, Suns, Mavericks, Jazz in the preseason, and sang all the way, winning four consecutive victories. He was under great pressure to take over the mess of the Kings. After four games, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. There was no shouting from fans, no complaints from players, and no criticism from bricks. Reggie Siyus felt that the road ahead was bright.
In fact, he couldn't figure out how such a bad Kings team could win four consecutive victories in the preseason. Although there was a bit of a factor in the strong team's release, this record was also very difficult for the Kings.
