Chapter 75 Chris Pressure, Barkley's Big Mouth

The Grizzlies lost their first preseason game in a very embarrassing way, and as Gasol said in an interview with Spanish media, they could have done better.

This was also interpreted by everyone as Gasol putting pressure on the management in disguise and expressing his dissatisfaction with coach Mark.

However, everyone understands that Gasol wants to go to a team that is expected to compete for the championship, and the Grizzlies, after this game, most people think that the Grizzlies will continue to count down in the league this season. Two, who cares.

The CCTV broadcast ended in a hurry after the game, not even a minute left, and because Ji Feng was sitting on the bench in the second half, Yu Jia and Director Zhang also lost interest in continuing to talk more, after all, now and Beijing time It's two in the morning.

Many fans turned off the TV scoldingly after Ji Feng would not play, and greeted the Mark family cordially.

Even the hot bar was biting the food in her mouth fiercely after the end. She felt very distressed when she saw Ji Feng's back leaving with no expression on his face.

"He must have wanted to win."

In the end, what Yu Jia said can represent the voice of the Chinese fans: "Coach Mark, please take a look at the bench, they have strength and momentum, please give them more opportunities!"

But Mark expressed satisfaction with the game in the interview. He believed that the team did not enter the state in the new season, and complained by the way that they had to play the game so far.

"Why didn't Ji Feng and Conley play in the second half, they performed very well in the second quarter." ESPN reporters directly asked what many people wanted to ask.

"Ji Feng? He's just a rookie, I think he still needs time, and I don't think he thinks he has the ability to change the game." Mark's face darkened visibly, and he looked at the reporter who asked the question in dissatisfaction. , or answered, and then ended the interview.

"It's ridiculous that they put their hopes on a rookie who didn't have a draft!" Mark thought to himself as he walked.

Chris, the team manager in the United States, also received the news of the team's defeat in Spain at the first time. He also watched the game. To be honest, in his opinion, the team played like a piece of shit, and there was nothing to do. Speaking of which, except for Ji Feng!

"This kid is really a big-hearted player! It seems that he has really found a treasure!" When Chris watched Ji Feng hit three consecutive three-pointers, he immediately had this feeling in his heart.

Ji Feng seemed to be born for big scenes. As Chris, who had been in the league for more than ten years, his first appearance was not even one-fifth of Ji Feng's.

"This stupid Mark!" However, in the second half, Mark kept using Guy, and Chris sprayed it directly. Now he feels more and more that Mark is a stupid coach. So before the game was over, Chris called the team owner.

As for the TNT commentary, the discussion of the game was conducted as usual after the game.

"It's not an accidental result, let's look at the Grizzlies starting stats, Gay is 3 for 13, Milicic is 2 for 11, Damon Stoudemire is 1 for 4, except for Ender. Outside of Lie Brown and Mike Miller, their shooting percentages are terrible." Smith threw the data sheet aside.

"To be honest, man, the Grizzlies may be at the bottom this year, and we still have doubts about whether Gasol wants to play in such a team." Barkley said bluntly.

"The Grizzlies were lost as a whole in this game, and of course there are bright spots. We can see that Ji Feng's performance in his first official game is eye-catching. He helped his team complete the go-ahead in the first quarter, except for He scored six points and made a key steal. And he looks easy and comfortable, I admire this guy." Smith still praised Ji Feng's performance in the first game.

"OH, NONONO!" Barkley immediately retorted: "This kid just made two three-pointers out of shit luck."

"You have to admit, this guy has better energy and efficiency on the court for the Grizzlies. He has a good understanding with Conley, and after Ji Feng went down, Conley was also lost. He only scored four points." Smith said.

"I dare say, Ji Feng, this kid, can't decide the outcome of a game, you know what man, I mean he can't affect the trend of a game even if he's not there, he's just a supporting role, he may be able to play this season Both scored 5 or 6 points, but I can guarantee that Ji Feng will never get 25 points in a game. As for leading the team, that's not his job, you know what I mean." Barkley shook his finger. Said to the camera.

"Hahaha, come on, man, do you still remember the taste of a donkey's butt? It seems that Yao didn't improve your memory." Smith laughed.

"Yao is different, he is different, I'm wrong, I have to admit, but the great Sir Barkley will not be wrong twice, this time I'd like to kiss the donkey on the lips, but I don't think I'll have that Opportunity." Barkley's mouth fired again.

This kind of remarks is half true and half effect. Sure enough, during the time when Barkley and Smith bet, TNT's ratings soared, and this also invisibly increased Ji Feng's popularity.

Ji Feng still doesn't know about the disturbance from the outside world. In the locker room of the visiting team, he is currently thinking about his own way. If he doesn't let himself play, how can he complete the task and strengthen his skill points, but after thinking about it for a long time, Ji Feng didn't think about it come up with a feasible solution. After all, he's just a rookie, Mark is the coach, he can't go up in the locker room directly, so he will definitely become the public enemy of all coaches in the world.

"It's so fucking helpless, let's continue training and find a way." After thinking for a long time, Ji Feng was very painful to find that he couldn't do anything for the time being, so he could only continue to train hard and fight for a chance.

At this moment, the locker room pushed away, and Mark said directly in front of everyone: "Ji Feng, Conley, you two will start the next game!"

Then Mark left a room full of bewildered players and went out again.

"Why did this guy suddenly change his sex?" Ji Feng didn't expect someone to deliver the pillow just after dozing off, so he muttered to himself in a daze.

On the contrary, Conley was very excited and ran over to give Ji Feng a high five.

Of course Mark wouldn't take the initiative to let Ji Feng start, but Chris's call to the boss worked.

Mark originally wanted to continue to refrigerate these two rookies and continue to cultivate Guy and Lowry, but he did not expect to receive a call from the boss before he returned to the locker room.

"Humph, you all believe that an Asian rookie can change the team, then I will fulfill you! I lost this time, let's see what you can say!" Mark who hung up the phone looked very angry, he felt his thoughts is right, he firmly believes that one day the facts will prove him right!

He thought of a good way to let Ji Feng and Conley start and let them play as much as they want. As long as they don't perform well, then he has a reason to put these two people on the bench!
