NBA: Top 3D talents to start

Chapter 433
With Owen's status and influence in the world, he is not even qualified to comment with Wang Feng. This is the most uncomfortable thing for Owen.

Owen's unique brain circuit makes him very unhappy with Wang Feng, but he will not praise Wang Feng's ability on the surface like Durant, Big Eyebrow Brother, Antetokounmpo and others. , In the face of the media, he did not shy away from expressing his thoughts.

It's just that such remarks are somewhat overwhelmed.

Wang Feng can't, the team's good record is only due to the problem of the schedule, what about you?James led the Cavaliers to fight for the No. [-] pick every year before deciding on the second?Wang Feng won three championships in four years with the Lakers, and the Cavaliers, including Irving, was the third champion in four years.

And now in the Nets, Irving's strength is not significantly different from that of the Cavaliers in the James 2.0 period, in other words, there is no improvement.

Owen's remarks not only did not play the role of belittling Wang Feng, but instead caused him more verbal criticism.

"Kerry Irving should take good care of his own affairs. He hasn't won a championship so far after leaving James. What qualifications does he have to comment on Wang Feng?" Well-known basketball commentator, famous James A-Smith Straightforward.

"Owen and Wang Feng are not at the same level of players at all. The former can't even see Wang Feng's taillights. If I were him, I would hone my skills and put more energy into the game instead of using it. This is an attempt to suppress Wang Feng."

A-Smith is one of the famous Wang Feng players who have emerged in the NBA in recent years. He has clearly shown his admiration and love for Wang Feng in public on many occasions, and more than once compared Wang Feng with several top players in active service, such as James, Du Rand, Antetokounmpo, Leonard and other players made a comparison, and then came to the conclusion that Wang Feng has completely exploded all active players.

A-Smith's solidarity boosted the morale of Wang Feng's fans, and completely surpassed the number one point guard of Xingyin in the air, but this was just an episode.

The reason why Irving talked about Wang Feng is because the two teams will finally meet in the regular season in the near future.

On December 12, at home in Cleveland, the Cavaliers will face the challenge of the Brooklyn Nets.

Both teams took this game very seriously.

The Nets, in particular, failed in the finals last season. All the Big Three participated in the Tokyo Olympics and tried to defeat Wang Feng but were slapped in the face. The match against the Cavaliers was another opportunity for them to challenge Wang Feng.

Durant and George, two strikers directly facing Wang Feng, are very eager to win a victory against Wang Feng. As for the grievances between Irving and Wang Feng, they can only be ranked third, but because of the remarks before the game, they became the most attractive. Hate and one of the most talked about.

For basketball, these are meaningless, and the performance and performance on the court determine everything.

If Owen's performance is better than Wang Feng's, then everything he says is right, otherwise he is just a clown.

And Owen wants to be better than Wang Feng in terms of personal performance.

Since the beginning of the regular season, Wang Feng’s average per game has remained stable at 35+13+13. His points and assists are both tops in the league. He even ranks third in the league in rebounds, second only to Jazz center Rudy. Gobert is averaging 15.8 rebounds and Nuggets center Nikola Jokic's 14.1.

On the other hand, Irving's average of 26.5 points, 4.4 rebounds and 6.4 assists in the new season is very good, but that's it. The level difference between the two sides is really too big.

Therefore, if Irving wants to gain a little upper hand in public opinion, he can only rely on the team bonus of the Nets defeating the Cavaliers.

The Cavaliers also attach great importance to the game against the Nets.

This is since the new season, the team has played against the top teams configured by the Big Three in the true sense.

Although they defeated the Milwaukee Bucks led by Antetokounmpo before, Wall's injury left the Bucks with only two giants Antetokounmpo and Middleton playing. They are not complete, so they are not reference.

The Cavaliers' excellent record in the new season has surprised the team's management and coaching staff, and at the same time, they have new expectations for the team that cannot be restrained.

Joining the team is that the Nets, 76ers, Celtics and other Eastern powers can win in the duel. Doesn't that mean that there is hope that they can go further in the playoffs?
Whether it works or not, at least try it, right?

Before the game, the team's head coach Bickerstaff tentatively asked Wang Feng for his thoughts on the game.

Then he was surprised to find that Wang Feng's point of view coincided with his.

The two teams that are both Eastern Conference teams will meet four times in the regular season. These four matchups are likely to directly determine the superior-subordinate relationship and psychological state of the two teams after they meet in the playoffs.

Wang Feng knows that although the current Cavaliers team is getting better, its overall strength is far behind that of the Lakers. Therefore, if they want to successfully break out from the Eastern Conference, they must take every detail into consideration.

In the game against the Nets, Wang Feng is bound to win!

……

On November 11, the game went on as scheduled.

The Cavaliers home stadium, which has been renamed from the Quicken Loans Arena to the Rocket Mortgage Arena, was full of seats. Cleveland fans filled the arena with enthusiasm, and the voices of cheering for the home team seemed to wave after wave.

Among them, there are many "kind" greetings to Owen.

As the second NBA No. [-] pick selected by the Cavaliers after James, Cavaliers fans had high expectations for Irving, hoping that he could become the second LeBron James of the Cavaliers. Even if James decided to return to the Cavaliers, Irving would still Be regarded as the future of the team.

But when the Cavaliers won the championship in 17, Irving took the initiative to apply for a trade to leave the team, ignoring the many Cavaliers fans who spoke out to stay.

Wang Feng, Irving left the team one after another, and Irving was in decline due to injuries, the entire Cavaliers fell to the altar overnight, leaving only James struggling to support.

Then one season passed, and even James finally chose to leave the team three times.

In the Cavaliers' series of changes, although Irving was not the key factor, he was definitely the one who started it.

Many Cavaliers fans have always been certain that if he hadn't been jealous of Wang Feng's performance and wanted to seize power with Wang Feng, which would eventually lead to conflicts, Wang Feng would not be so decisive in refusing to renew his contract.

Owen chased Wang Feng away, turned his head, patted his ass and ran to Boston.

Since then, whenever Irving returns to Cleveland from an away game, he will receive special attention from Cavaliers fans.

Coincidentally, after Irving switched to the Brooklyn Nets, the Boston Celtics happily joined the Cavaliers group chat. Now, the atmosphere at home for the Cavaliers is quite friendly.

Being disgusted by two teams in a row, it can also be seen that Irving is indeed disgusting to them.

"Kerry! See? Now we have Wang Feng! We don't need you!"

"How many championships do you have now? Oh, I'm sorry I forgot, but you got one here. It seems that you are not good at it! You are also worthy of commenting on Wang Feng? If you lead this season A Cavaliers team, I am afraid that next year's No. 1 pick is already secured, right?

The yelling of the fans on the sidelines made Irving, who was warming up on the field, darken all the way, full of displeasure.

Durant, George and others on the side were quite helpless seeing this scene, but at the same time they were also a little fortunate.

Thanks to Owen for attracting all the firepower.

To be fair, Wang Feng is their victim now, not only Irving, but also Durant and George, everything involving Wang Feng's name is a tragic history of being abused, blood and tears.

They just want to keep a low profile as much as possible now, and then hit hard in the game, defeating Wang Feng and the Cavaliers.

……

After the "lively" warm-up, the game officially started, and the substitute players from both sides left the field, leaving only the starters on the field.

The Cavaliers continue to use the first set of starting lineup, Poole, Bain, Porter, Wang Feng and Love starting, the standard small ball lineup, to maximize the offensive lethality.

As for the Nets, starting point guard Irving, shooting guard Paul George, small forward Durant, power forward Blake Griffin, and center Nicholas Claxton.

The Nets' starting lineup is a visible decline compared to last season.

The contracts of the main starting guard Dinwiddie and center Jarrett Allen both expire in the summer of 21, and they are sitting on the Nets with the Big Three, so there is no salary space to match the contracts of the two.

这导致了贾莱特.阿伦被骑士队以5年1亿挖走，丁威迪则与华盛顿奇才签下3年6200万美元的合同，两人平均年薪都达到2000万美元的标准。

The Nets, which lost two generals, tried their best to strengthen the team. They successfully renewed the contracts of two former All-Star insiders, Blake Griffin and DeMarcus Aldridge, with the basic salary of veterans.

But these two All-Star power forwards are already at the end of their careers, and their combat effectiveness is limited.

The current starting center of the Nets, Nicholas Claxton, is also a player selected by the Nets. He has been a substitute for Jarrett Allen before. Jarrett Allen, but it's better than nothing.

With Dinwiddie's vacancy, the Nets did not have a good replacement role, so they could only be forced to change the rotation in order to ensure the integrity of the starting lineup. George was referred to the shooting guard position, and Durant served as a small forward. Griffin came to serve as the starting power forward.

The adjustment of the lineup has allowed the Nets to barely maintain their competitiveness. The current record is second only to the Cavaliers and ranks second in the East, but such a lineup can see hidden dangers at a glance.

The inside strength of Griffin and Clarkston's partner is really bad.

Wang Feng was keenly aware of this, so as soon as the game started, he frequently broke through with the ball and hit the Nets' basket.

For the Nets, the main defense against Wang Feng has never changed, and it is still Paul George.

Although George can't avoid being blown up by Wang Feng no matter how hard he tries, he is still one of the few strikers in the league who can defend Wang Feng.

Indeed, George can't guard Wang Feng, but letting other players guard Wang Feng will only make the result worse.

Using the first-step master badge to easily break through George in one step, Wang Feng rushed into the inside line without hesitation, and then forced Clarkston, who stepped forward to defend, to take off and dunk with a strong jump.

Nicholas Claxton is 2 meters tall, but weighs only 11 kilograms, lighter than Wang Feng.

Facing this kind of skinny insider, Wang Feng didn't even bother to compare, and he was done.

After just a few rounds, Clarkston, who was made miserable by Wang Feng's indiscriminate bombing, had already committed two fouls and had to leave the court to avoid the edge.

But when Clarkston is off the field, the Nets' inside line is even more empty.

The Nets were stunned by Wang Feng's three tricks, and fell behind in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this situation, Durant could only stand up urgently and rely on his personal singles ability to score to help the team stabilize the situation.

At this time, the weakness of the Cavaliers is also revealed.

Otto Porter Jr. is a very good player with excellent offense and defense, but he is definitely not a top defensive player, let alone be able to defend against Durant.

The Cavaliers lineup does not have a top perimeter defensive player like Jimmy Butler from the Lakers period who formed a joint defense with Wang Feng, so the Cavaliers and the Nets can only form a mutual explosion on the court.

Seeing this situation, Owen also started to act.

Defending Irving is Jordan Poole as a point guard.

Poole's offensive end is quite good, but his defensive end is relatively average. He is only the average level of a league guard, so he can't defend Irving, who has top-level ball-handling ability.

Easily relying on the change of rhythm to shake Kepple's center of gravity, Irving went straight to the basket, clinging to the body of Love who was helping to defend, and scored a layup, and then celebrated in a high-profile way amidst the boos of the audience.

Wang Feng noticed Owen's embarrassing reaction, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

The game had just started, and Wang Feng was not going to put too much energy into defense, which is why he didn't mark Durant.

It's my business if I don't defend. It's your problem to pretend to be aggressive after scoring a goal.

Not long ago, Wang Feng also saw comments about Irving's record against himself and the Cavaliers.

He had learned about Ou Shenxian's various coquettish operations in another time and space, but this time he was hooked up with himself, so he couldn't turn a blind eye.

Wang Feng has never been a generous and open-minded person, and he was even a little narrow-minded.

"Didn't you say that I'm not as good as the outside world touts? I won the championship because my teammates are strong enough, and the Cavaliers have a good record because their opponents are too weak? Well, you can try it yourself..."

The Nets attacked, and the ball came to Irving. He once again used his signature dribbling skills to pass Poole and rush into the basket. picturesque.

However, at the moment when the basketball was shot, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind Owen, and with lightning speed, he directly pressed the basketball on the backboard!
