Chapter 1898 True Number One Killer

"As I said at the draft, I am full of interest in challenging Ji Feng. I know that coming here is to challenge for the throne, and I am full of confidence in myself. I said it at the time, but he did not respond Me, he doesn’t seem to want to fight me, but that doesn’t matter, I will take the initiative to challenge him.”

"Furthermore, I know that in the past few seasons, Ji Feng was considered to be the most flashy guy in the game. I have watched his tapes. His rookie season was indeed good, but after that, he was not so good. But I am different. This That’s how I’ve always played, from beginning to end.”

On January 13, the dusty Cleveland Cavaliers team arrived in Los Angeles. When they got off the plane, in sharp contrast to the half-dead teammates behind them, Irving, who was obviously overly excited, was interviewed at the airport.

In fact, the management is not allowed to be interviewed at the airport, because the games this season are really too intensive. 66 games have to be played in such a short time. It is important for every team and every player. There is huge pressure. Almost every team is constantly moving between several cities, and there is not enough rest time. Naturally, they will not waste time on interviews.

But Irving did just that. Who makes him the core of the Cavaliers' support? To a certain extent, his current treatment is comparable to that of James as a rookie.

Owen said the above words with great enthusiasm, as if Ji Feng was the challenger in this upcoming game. Although he didn't say that, his expression proved that he thought so. .

His coquettish appearance made fellow rookie Tristan Thompson curl his lips unconsciously. This guy is really as arrogant as ever.

But he won't say anything. Anyway, this guy is the sweet potato of the management. He is just a blue-collar tool for Irving.

The Cavaliers' new head coach, who is also everyone's old acquaintance Byron Scott - who was driven away by Paul - twitched the corners of his mouth and made movements with his hands, as if he wanted to stop Irving from continuing to speak, but he didn't. No way to do it, the whole person looks very stiff.

Provoking Ji Feng is what Scott thinks is the stupidest thing in the league. Ji Feng is now the number one player in the league. It would be strange if he ignored the provocation of a young rookie. Besides, Irving really doesn't know Ji Feng. His nickname? Didn’t so many top picks who fell in front of Ji Feng give you a warning?

No way, really no way.

If Scott had his way, he would definitely shut up Owen's mouth. To be honest, in just one month, Scott has already experienced Owen's second-hand behavior. This guy is, to put it bluntly, a spoiled child. He believed that he had talent and didn't take anyone else seriously. He was suppressed by Old K at Duke in college and his playing style was pretty good as a team. But when he came to the Cavaliers, the inflated Irving had fully demonstrated his "independent" ability. On the one hand, he has taken himself as the boss since the first day he stepped on the court. He is also bossy on the training field and is actually used to bossing the team around. No one except Jamison has escaped this.

He even secretly looked down on him as a head coach, and his execution of tactics was a mess. Apart from being able to play singles, he basically didn't do anything else.

But what can you do? This is the NBA. When you encounter a player like this, you can only blame him for his bad luck.

Irving, who seemed very happy after the interview, returned to the hotel with the team, and the Lakers also received news that Irving was making nonsense again.

To be honest, the Lakers don't have much interest in playing against a fat team like the Cavaliers. After all, one is a four-time champion and the league's first with ten consecutive wins, and the other is second to last in the Eastern Conference. From an analysis of strength, this game There is almost no suspense in the game.

Prior to this, the Lakers were discussing the matter of taking a rest. After all, although they had achieved 10 consecutive victories, they still consumed a lot of money. After all, the schedule was too intensive, and some veterans were a little overwhelmed. Farmar did not want to go to a nightclub when the game started. , because I am really too tired. Apart from competitions and being on the road, I don’t have much time to engage in extracurricular sports.

Originally, Ji Feng was planning to take a rest. After all, it is not easy to meet a fish belly. But as soon as Owen said this, Ji Feng couldn't rest. If he didn't, it would make people think that he was afraid of Owen.

"MD, how could there be such a fool?" So Ji Feng still stayed on the roster, and became Corvo on the rest.

Leaving aside whether or not to take turns, Ji Feng is more irritated by Irving's attitude. Why is this guy so confident? Many people have challenged him before. After all, Mu Xiu Yu Lin, Ji Feng is used to it, what about Ross? Beasley, Mayo, Griffin, the soldiers will just cover up the water and the earth.

But this Owen was the most rude one, which directly angered Ji Feng. To be honest, Ji Feng hadn't been so angry in a long time.

Kobe patted Ji Feng on the shoulder: "Don't worry, don't hold back. This guy really needs an education."

"That's right, why does he always want to get into trouble? To be honest, he is the number one pick, doesn't it happen every year? That's why he is special." Artest clenched his fists.

"Okay, ignore him. Since it's up, then win the game. As for Irving, leave it to me." Ji Feng said.

…

On January 14th, at 7 pm, Staples, the game between the Lakers and Cavaliers is about to begin.

Although the Cavaliers are no longer what they used to be, this matchup still attracted a lot of attention. The United States even broadcast it live, which was considered very impressive.

Before the game, Irving's appointment also gave the game another focus besides the outcome.

"Everyone is welcome to watch the NBA live broadcast. Tonight, the Cavaliers are visiting Los Angeles to face the Lakers, who have won 10 consecutive games. Whether they can end the Lakers' winning streak is a highlight."

"And Kobe Bryant's rest this game seems to show the Lakers' confidence. They are still the best team in the league."

"Irving, the No. 1 pick who has performed well this season, said before the game that he would challenge Ji Feng, which also makes this game more suspenseful. As we all know, Ji Feng and Irving are both known for their gorgeous play. What kind of sparks will this matchup create? " Barkley said before the game.

"The quarter-finals won, but in terms of skills, Irving seems to be capable of fighting," Smith said.

"No, no, no, you are too naive. Ji Feng's personal skills are the most terrifying that I have seen in many years. Most street ball players are not as good as his skills. He just doesn't want to use them. After all, you can't guard him straight away. Come on, why would I use such a complicated method?"

"If Owen had sobered up, he wouldn't have taken the initiative to challenge Ji Feng. He would have been beaten, I believe." O'Neal naturally sided with Ji Feng unconditionally.

The double starters were also announced at this time. On the Cavaliers' side, Varejao and Thompson inside, Jamison at the third position, and guards Irving and Casspi. These are also the Cavaliers' common starters this season, while the Lakers' side is surprising. .

Kobe took a rest, Ji Feng went directly to the first position, Artest was at the third position, Farmar was at the second position, and Jordan Hill replaced Bynum and Gasol in the starting lineup.

The camera was focused on Ji Feng. Ji Feng looked at the Cavaliers' bench with a smile on his face. He stopped pretending and let his cards show down. I'm here to beat you and let you see what a true No. 1 pick killer is!
