Chapter 430 429. The Third Young Master vs. the Three Eagles!
The next morning, Emma Roberts walked with the help of a wall...

When Zhang Yang asked her out for dinner yesterday evening, she knew this guy had bad intentions.

Those legendary stories about Zhang Yang that would leave him dumbfounded were first made up by his black fans. However, the largest audience group is not the black fans but his fans. The secondary creations made by fans during the process of spreading the stories are even more exaggerated than those made up by the black fans... This makes those black fans who make up the stories question their lives. Who is the leader of the black fans?
He has been filming in California for many years and is also interested in sports, so he is one of the audiences of those legendary stories.

But she did not refuse, instead she was looking forward to it.

Her father is a big star, an idol in the 1980s and 1990s; her aunt is an even bigger star, an Oscar-winning Best Actress; her biological mother is a famous singer and actress; her stepmother is a well-known agent in Los Angeles. She has been appearing on the screen with her parents and aunt since elementary school, and when she was twelve or thirteen years old, she started playing leading roles, releasing albums, appearing on variety shows, and running endorsement deals... So, when she started her freshman year a few months ago, the whole class laughed at her for not having a boyfriend in college and nicknamed her "old girl."

The university she attends is Sarah Lawrence College, which is known as the most luxurious private university in the world. It used to be a girls' school, but later became coeducational. However, the gender ratio is very different. Currently, there are nearly 1400 female students and nearly 100 male students in the school. The number of male students is even less than the number of teachers, who have more than 150 teachers.

A bunch of women aged 17 to 22 gathered together are most likely to be bullied.

There are many ways to bully her. She herself thinks she looks bitchy, pretty, and a celebrity. Plus, she is the youngest in the school, so she is isolated and ridiculed... But she has no choice. Students in this university must be rich or noble. The tuition alone has already completed the "genetic isolation". There are more girls than boys simply because what is taught here is useless. Her major is English, which is purely for improving one's cultivation and language quality.

She was determined to get rid of the nickname of "old girl". She was neither a single nor a conservative person. She watched a lot of documentaries when no one was around late at night and had rich theoretical knowledge. However, she had been either studying or working in the past ten years. Sometimes she wished she could split an hour into three hours. She had no time to make a boyfriend and had no conditions to put it into practice.

I came to Atlanta for work this time, and I had plans to watch the live broadcasts of the Bobcats and the Hawks. In addition to wanting to watch the Bobcats game live, I also wanted to sit in the front row and show my face in the national live broadcast to get some attention.

But she can't just find any man to sleep with, right? She has to find one whose facial features match her three values.

After finishing her magazine shoot yesterday afternoon, she came to the dungeon church to pray for meeting a handsome guy... When she was about to leave after praying, she saw the Bobcats' third young master coming.

She originally liked Zhang San because he looked like a decent guy, and with Xiao Fei and Xiao Duncan standing beside him as reference points... her heart was immediately moved.

As Emma Roberts expected, after dinner, Zhang Yang took her back to the hotel.

She was a little nervous at the time, but also very expectant, and even had some thoughts of revenge.

But when she used the theoretical knowledge in her mind to fight against Zhang Yang... she was completely defeated in the first round, and was defeated and begged for mercy.

…I didn’t make it through the third round and finally gave in to my fate.

It was a bad loss, but it was a great experience.

That’s right, her legs are shaking now and she can’t even stand steadily.

But she could only get up and walk away holding on to the wall. She had a commercial to shoot at noon and an endorsement promotion event to attend in the afternoon. She had to walk around more to relax and avoid embarrassment.

Thinking that Zhang Yang was still fast asleep, I had to go to work after being tossed around for half the night...

Bitch: I shouldn’t like this victory!
...

Near noon, Zhang Yang woke up from a deep sleep.

After he woke up from sleep, he touched his side and the bitch was gone.

Knock! The little girl also pulled up her pants and didn't recognize anyone!

He turned around to take out his cell phone... Well, the bitch left a small note with a phone number and email address on it.

He saved the number and sent a text message with only his English name and email address. Then he tore up the note and flushed it down the toilet along with the three small balloons he picked up.

After taking a shower and changing his clothes, he called the front desk and asked them to make the bed. He would probably have to pay for the quilt and sheets as they were stained with blood, but it was okay, Boss Joe would pay for it. However, he still left a $10 tip under the ashtray on the bedside table for the cleaning lady who cleaned the room.

When he arrived at the Phillips Arena, he was just in time for his nutritious meal.

Seeing Zhang Yang coming, Carlisle teased, "Jack, don't be weak in tonight's game!"

Zhang Yang: "Just kidding, I feel just fine now."

Seeing Zhang Yang in high spirits, Carlisle laughed and scolded him a few times, but did not ask any more questions. He thought that it was a good thing that Felton told him about Zhang Yang taking the actress back to the room, so he did not send anyone to wake Zhang Yang up in the morning, allowing Zhang Yang to sleep until noon.

As for missing the morning preparations, it’s nothing. The preparations for the Hawks were completed the day before yesterday and yesterday morning at the Turkish Airlines Arena. I just had a tactical training class this morning, and there were no new tactics or anything.

Look, bad boy Jack is very professional. After lunch, he went to watch the video and discuss the evening's game with the big gang members.

However, when warming up in the evening, Carlisle still made a point of observing Zhang Yang's condition... and finally sighed that young people have good physiques.

It was 7:40 in the evening and the visiting Bobcats entered the stadium first.

Zhang Yang listened to the wild boos from the fans and felt like he was playing away from home!

Fans in coastal and seaside areas in the southeast region support their teams when they have good results, and the attendance is worrying when their teams have bad results. New York fans will even support their opponents when their own teams have bad results, but the fans here can't even do that.

Atlanta is actually okay, but the situation in Florida is even more exaggerated. The Heat won the championship in 06, and last season their attendance dropped to fourth from the bottom in the league. The same was true for the Magic in the two years after McGrady left and before Howard grew up.

After the entrance ceremony, Zhang Yang heard someone calling him. He turned around and saw Emma Roberts waving at him from across the technical desk. The bitch really came to watch the game. She was really his fan? He thought the bitch was coming for his body.

He didn't shy away from anything and walked over. Before he even said hello, he saw the cameraman adjusting the lens on the side. It turned out that he wanted to take advantage of his popularity.

Zhang San and Biao Mei took photos together openly and took good photos to attract attention. The two of them, who have a great sense of camera, even posed together when the live camera came.

Neither of them was shy because they both thought the other was the kind of person who would not recognize him once he pulled up his pants...

There is quite a lot of attention on tonight's game. The regular season has been played for 6 weeks. In fact, starting from the game against the Magic, the Bobcats' easy start has ended. In the next three or four weeks, their opponents will mainly be strong teams.

The Hawks are highly anticipated this season. Many experts and fans believe that Bibby, Pierce and Joe Johnson, three veteran stars who have not had much luck in the past few years, may make a name for themselves.

Having made substantial reinforcements both inside and outside the offseason, their record this season has also improved significantly. They have played 21 games so far, with 14 wins and 7 losses, only half a game behind the Bobcats, and have surpassed the 13-8 Bulls to rank among the top four in the Eastern Conference.

The head coach of the Hawks is Mike Woodson, who focuses on defense. They allow an average of 96 points per game, which is very good. The Bobcats also allow an average of 98.2 points per game.

Offensively, the Hawks are also above average, averaging 102.3 points per game and having a net margin of 6.3 points per game, which is not far behind the Bobcats' net margin of 7.1 points per game. This is also reflected in their record, as the two teams are almost the same.

这赛季老鹰队一个场均20+球员都没有了，但场均得分上双的球员有6人之多，乔-约翰逊场均19.2分2.3助攻、皮尔斯场均18.8分4.6助攻、毕比场均14.6分7助攻、霍福德场均13.1分9板3.1助攻，替补席上，锋卫线两个投手罗纳德-穆雷和莫里斯-埃文斯都场均11+……团队属性这一点，本赛季东部没有其他球队能出其右。

However, while there are many people who are optimistic about the Hawks, there are also many who are pessimistic about it, because the Hawks' style of play is relatively simple, with the head coach in charge of defense and the three superstars in charge of offense.

The reason why teams like the Hawks, Grizzlies, Magic and others were able to quickly get used to each other after replacing or adding a lot of players was that their offense was simple.

The Eagles haven’t made many tactical changes this season, even fewer than last season when they were shorthanded.

Last season, Bibby and Pierce could adjust at will because their lower strength limit was not high. They had to keep changing in order to have a chance to make a comeback and reach the playoffs.

But this season is different. They have enough players and are predicted to win at least 50 games. Bibby and Pierce are also much more conservative in their on-the-spot command.

Even though the Bobcats' performance and record have been fluctuating greatly, and they look like they could be overtaken by the Hawks and Bulls at any time and drop to fifth in the Eastern Conference, many media and experts have attacked them for their start being far worse than last season, but few have questioned their status as the favorite to win the championship.

It is precisely because they have been seeking change, constantly improving their offensive and defensive systems, with a clear direction, and have made no secret of their ambition to become a super strong team that combines both offense and defense...

…At 8 pm, the Bobcats’ away game against the Hawks began.

The Bobcats' starting lineup remained the same, while the Hawks sent out Bibby, Joe Johnson, Pierce, Horford and Pachulia.

At the beginning of the game, the Hawks wanted to rely on their three outside stars to gain an advantage as they did in the past... but failed.

Facing Pierce's defense, Zhang Yang made a step-back three-pointer and a pull-up two-pointer (2+1), leading the Bobcats to a 12-8 start and stopped the Hawks after more than two minutes!
When the two teams met for the first time this season, Carlisle kept emphasizing "teamwork", but he encountered the frontcourt combination of Pierce + Horford + Pachulia. The two guns led the team to cooperate and failed to open up. At the beginning, they were suppressed by the three outside stars of the Hawks. Fortunately, the Bobcats played well in the final quarter and won by 5 points in the end.

It's not that Carlisle doesn't know how to make different offensive preparations for different opponents, but that requires too much from the core tactics. The last time they played against the Hawks, the 'Cat Version of the Two-Gun Tactics' was just getting started, and the starting lineup was brand new, so practicing tactics in actual combat was a priority. At that time, they didn't know what the effect of the new starting lineup would be against the Hawks, so they didn't make targeted preparations at the beginning.

It’s different now. In the second half of last month, after repeated verification, Zhang Yang and Felton proved that they can shoulder the burden with their personal abilities, and Carlisle began to move the system to the next stage.

After playing for a month, the two new starters, Millsap and Pietrus, have become more familiar with how to cooperate with the three young players, and have gained practical experience on how to play as starters.

The Hawks had the experience of the last match, and during pre-match preparations, they still believed that their three outside stars had a strength advantage in terms of personal ability against the combination of Zhang Yang and Felton, just like last season. They also wanted to replicate the performance of the three stars at the beginning of the last match this season after they formed a team.

From the matchup point of view, the three big stars of the Hawks have their reasons for confidence. Bibby's solid physique and powerful strength can put some restrictions on Felton's tank-like offensive style of play. The double forward line of Pierce and Horford has also been doing a good job in cutting off Felton's inside pass.

Then, he was beaten up by Zhang Yang...

Pierce actually defended quite well, making good use of his height and strength advantages, which made up for his speed disadvantage to a large extent, but Zhang Yang just wanted to seize that little rhythm difference and force a shot. Pierce had already done what he could to the extreme, so he could only watch Zhang Yang shoot the ball, hoping that Zhang Yang would miss a difficult shot... but Zhang Yang made both of his shots.

Not only that, the coordination between Zhang Yang's main attack, Felton's opening up of space, Millsap's assists, and Pietrus and Okafor's receiving plays was also very good, and the teammates made good use of the team offensive opportunities brought about by Zhang Yang's difficult goals.

After the timeout, the unwilling Pierce took the initiative to ask for the ball and wanted to have a one-on-one challenge with Zhang Yang.

Okafor and Felton were not in good condition for singles attack tonight, so Zhang Yang naturally had no hesitation in confronting Pierce.

At the beginning, the two fought back and forth, but after a few rounds, Pierce couldn't keep up.

Competing for offensive continuity with a 20-year-old young player known as a physical genius, Pierce found himself losing his mind as the game went on.

Fortunately, before the disadvantage expanded to an irreversible point, Bibby took the initiative to take the ball back, distributed the ball reasonably, and entered the team cooperation state ahead of time.

Thanks to Zhang Yang's outstanding personal performance at the start, the Bobcats took the lead at the start, disrupted the Hawks' game rhythm, and gained a very clear initiative in the later time.

However, Carlisle's progressive attrition defense strategy did not have as obvious an effect on the Hawks as it did against previous opponents.

The three stars of the Hawks are all very good at ensuring shooting stability in high-intensity confrontations;
Maurice Evans' playing style looked weak on the bench, and he was badly beaten by Pietrus and Mike Miller in the confrontation, but when an open opportunity came up, he shot more steadily than Mike Miller. His toughness does not lie in appearance and playing style, but in the toughness in his bones. His stable open shooting performance helped the three superstars create opportunities to take turns to rest.

It makes sense that the Hawks were able to beat the Bulls and rank among the top four in the Eastern Conference. Despite such a big disadvantage at the start, they managed to drag the situation back and at the end of the third quarter, Joe Johnson scored two consecutive singles against Afflalo and went 5-0 on his own, helping the Hawks to chase the score to 68-72 at the end of the third quarter, narrowing the gap to 4 points!
Entering the intermission, after listening to Carlisle's adjustments and arrangements, Zhang Yang looked at the data on the big screen. The three guys on the opposite side, Bibby with 11 points and 5 assists, Pierce with 15 points and 7 rebounds, Joe Johnson with 13 points and 3 assists, plus Maurice Evans with 11 points and 2 assists... a total of 68 points, with 4 players scoring in double digits!
Hill said: "The opponent has team offense, team defense, one-on-one defense, and three strong players in key singles... Fortunately, Horford is only 22 years old and still young, otherwise it would be very uncomfortable for us to meet them in the playoffs this year. No, it is already very uncomfortable now. He is like Emeka, mature, calm and responsible."

Zhang Yang responded, "Horford is indeed very good. With his speed of improvement, I estimate that he will be selected as an All-Star next season. Bibby and Pierce are still in their prime. Johnson will be 28 next year and will be in the best competitive state. With Horford, their boss has been quite normal in the past two years and delegated power to the general manager... Forget it, we are not the only ones who have a headache anyway."

After adjusting his mentality, Zhang Yang played with Jarrett Jack, Hill, Ibaka and Perkins to fight against the Hawks in the final quarter.

The Eagles did their best in the second and third quarters to drag the game into a battle of stars, which is what they are good at.

But on the other hand, Zhang San and Master Jack are also good at this!
Bibby did a good job defending Felton tonight, but he and his backup Acie Law were both average in defending Jarrett Jack.

After the start of the final quarter, both sides launched a star-studded offensive battle. The Hawks wanted to take advantage of the absence of Felton, Brad Miller and Okafor to overtake the score in one fell swoop, but the Bobcats withstood the pressure and maintained a slight lead!

Jarrett Jack played well, but he played just as well as the Hawks, who were not good at defending him, should have played. The key point was Zhang Yang.

Facing Zhang San who had "liberated" his playful heart, Pierce, Joe Johnson, Maurice Evans and Murray all failed to defend him well!
After fighting hard for half a quarter, when the official timeout came, the score was 83 to 86. The Hawks only narrowed the gap by 1 point. They scored 15 points in the half quarter, and the opponent also scored 14 points!
After the timeout, the Bobcats sent out a combination of Felton, Zhang Yang, Hill, Millsap and Okafor.

On the Hawks side, in order to increase mobility, Woodson put Horford at the center position, and sent Bibby, Joe Johnson, Pierce, and Juwan Howard to the other four positions.

Okafor turned around and made a hook shot against Horford in the low post, widening the gap to 5 points again.

Then Joe Johnson missed the mid-range shot while turning around under Zhang Yang's single defense, and Hill protected the defensive rebound.

The Hawks' substitution of a more mobile lineup worked, preventing Zhang Yang from running and shooting, and dragging the Bobcats into a positional battle... Unfortunately, they still failed to defend him.

Seeing that the twin towers on the opposite side were Juwan Howard and Horford, Zhang Yang decisively rushed to the inside, shook off Horford's backup defense with a European step, came to the basket, and slammed the ball into the basket with one hand through Juwan Howard who was defending, got the free throw, and made it 2+1!

While Zhang Yang's personal score increased to 30 points, he helped the Bobcats extend the score to 91 to 83, expanding the lead to 8 points!
In the following time, the Eagles, whose disadvantage had widened, attacked desperately and launched a crazy counterattack.

The Bobcats followed up with a counterattack, but were unable to gain any more advantage, but also did not allow the opponent to really have a chance to make a comeback.

After 2 hours and 21 minutes of the game, the final whistle sounded.

张杨32分6板4助攻2抢断、奥卡福14分11板、贾莱特-杰克18分、费尔顿11分6助攻……击败20分5助攻的乔-约翰逊、21分的皮尔斯、16分8助攻的毕比……

98 to 93, the Bobcats defeated the Hawks away, improving their record to 15 wins and 6 losses, continuing to suppress the Hawks and Bulls and maintaining the third place in the Eastern Conference!

Another narrow win by 5 points... Zhang Yang felt the pressure from the opponent in front of him, but fortunately he started well.

However, he scored 32 points tonight, which is much better than the 5 points he needed to win by 40 points last time. The overall situation is much better and the progress of his team is visible.

After celebrating with his teammates, Zhang Yang saw Emma Roberts jumping with excitement across from the technical table.

They won, and there were a lot of shots after the game. Zhang San took the initiative to hug the bitch to celebrate.

Emma Roberts jumped up excitedly and gave Zhang Yang a big hug.

Due to her family environment, she started working early and was very busy. She seldom had time to watch live games. When she did go to watch live games, they were always more high-end sports such as golf and tennis. She herself is good at tennis, bowling, gymnastics, dance, etc.

Because she lived in Los Angeles for a long time during high school, there is a strong basketball atmosphere there. She would occasionally watch NBA live broadcasts. When she heard her colleagues in the same crew talking about basketball, she was attracted by Zhang Yang's photos in the magazine and began to focus on the Bobcats games. But when watching the live broadcasts, she just thought that Zhang Yang had a good-looking face and a picturesque playing style, which was completely different from those players who got excited and frightened like gorillas.

This time, she had a completely different viewing experience when she watched the game in person. She was so excited, especially when Zhang Yang broke into the paint and dunked over Horford with a Euro step. She felt like she was crying.

But the bitch was disgusted after hugging him, and the tall guy was sweating!

If it was Zhang Yang's own sweat, it would be fine, but the key is that this guy is often covered in sweat during the game, and he was double-teamed when he broke through, and he just hugged and celebrated with his teammates... Bitch: I'm dirty! Go back and wash and change clothes!

On Zhang Yang's side, seeing Emma Roberts leaving in a hurry, he thought that celebrities were really busy, so he didn't take it seriously, thinking she was just a passing visitor.

The match was a narrow victory in a fierce duel. The game was exciting, with tactical battles, star showdowns, one-on-one duels, and everything else. After the game, Zhang Yang was busy for a while before returning to the hotel with the team.

Zhang San opened the door and was stunned. There was someone in the room! The bitch was putting black stockings on her perfectly proportioned thighs!

Zhang Yang asked: "Emma, ​​how did you get in?"

Emma Roberts pulled her black silk stockings with her fingernails, leaving a small cut from her thigh to her knee... She responded, "The lady at the front desk is still the same lady from last night. She saw us getting on the elevator together, and she gave it to me when I asked for the room card. Why, don't you welcome me?"

Zhang San: The lady at the front desk is very good at handling things! Be sure to give her a tip when you leave tomorrow!
