professional shooting guard

Chapter 194 New Goal, New Plan!

As of 2016:1 on January 15, 0, the All-Star voting has officially ended.

Zhang Zifeng won 2 votes. He surpassed No.192 Kobe Bryant by more than 143 votes, and was elected as the 2 All-Star vote king.

Not surprisingly, he must occupy the first place in the starting list of Eastern Conference guards in the All-Star Game.

Then the NBA officially announced the starting list for the 2016 All-Star Game.

east:

Dwyane Wade (Miami Heat, 941, 466 votes)
Zhang Zifeng (Philadelphia 76ers, 2 votes)
LeBron James (Cleveland Cavaliers, 1 votes)
Paul George (Indiana Pacers, 711 votes)
Carmelo Anthony (New York Knicks, 567, 348 votes)
west:

Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors, 1 votes)
Russell Westbrook (Oklahoma City Thunder, 772 votes)
Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles Lakers, 1 votes)
Kevin Durant (Oklahoma City Thunder, 980, 787 votes)
Kawhi Leonard (San Antonio Spurs, 782, 339 votes)
As soon as the news of the All-Star starting list was announced, many people sent congratulatory letters to Zhang Zifeng for being selected as an All-Star, and Zhang Zifeng replied one by one.

If someone is happy, someone is bound to be depressed.

Needless to say in the West, even if Zhang Zifeng won a record-breaking number of votes, it has nothing to do with them and cannot affect them.

The Eastern forwards are fine. Although Zhang Zifeng is very popular, it doesn't affect them.

But guards are different.

Originally, there were only two defenders. It can be seen that as long as Zhang Zifeng performs well, he will firmly occupy the starting guards in the Eastern Conference for the next few years. This makes the Eastern Conference defenders feel bad.

Especially Butler of the Bulls, who has only risen in the past few seasons.

Selected as a substitute last year,
This year, Butler was planning to become an All-Star this year, so that he can increase his commercial value and have his own signature sneakers.

But Zhang Zifeng turned out to make Butler despair.In terms of influence and historical status, he is not as good as Wade.

In terms of team status, he is still inferior to Wall and DeRozan.

With these three and Zhang Zifeng, Butler didn't know if he would have a chance to become an All-Star player again when he was at his peak.

It is precisely because of this that Butler is the most disgusted and complains about Zhang Zifeng's all-star vote winner.

On January 1, the 15ers faced the Bulls at home.

Before the game, a reporter came to interview Butler and said, "Sir, what do you think about Zhang Zifeng becoming the all-star vote leader!"

Butler said unhappily: "Zhang Zifeng is a very capable guy, but I will prove that I am stronger than him and more qualified to be an All-Star."

The reporter was elated when he heard it. It was just a routine interview, but he didn't expect this guy to make a big move.

The reporter hurriedly continued to ask: "You mean you are better than Zhang Zifeng, he was just pushed up by the majority of Chinese fans!"

Butler said with a natural expression, "Of course, everyone knows this. If there are no Chinese fans, he wouldn't even be eligible to go to the All-Star!"

The reporter continued to dig holes and said, "But sir, Zhang Zifeng once scored 62 points. And even Kobe and Jordan praised him. He said that he will carry the banner of shooting guard in the future!"

Butler looked at the reporter with an idiotic expression on his face, and said, "Dude, Kobe and the others are just complimenting routinely, and you take it seriously! And as far as I know, Redick and Crawford were not good at defense in that game. Coupled with the help of the whole team, Zhang Zifeng got high scores. Don’t forget that in the last few games, Zhang Zifeng’s performance was not very good against opponents who defended well!"

The reporters thought about it for a while, and felt that Butler's words made some sense.

In the game against the Clippers, Stephenson actually did a good job marking Zhang Zifeng. If the Clippers coach insists on letting Stephenson mark Zhang Zifeng.

It is absolutely impossible for Zhang Zifeng to get such a high score.

But this time, Zhang Zifeng will face Jimmy Butler.

This guy was named to the All-Defensive Second Team last year.

He is definitely a defensive master. I don't know how Zhang Zifeng will perform if he meets a defensive champion like Jimmy Butler!
Zhang Zifeng's true level can definitely be tested at this time.

Many reporters had such thoughts in their hearts.

At 2016:1 p.m. on January 15, 6, Zhang Zifeng appeared in the Wells Fargo Center Arena.

Dozens of reporters hurriedly surrounded him, aiming at Zhang Zifeng with various microphones. "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Butler still insists that you are not qualified to be an All-Star. What do you think of his evaluation?"

Zhang Zifeng said with a smile: "I'm sorry, my All-Star qualification was selected by the fans. You should ask those fans whether I am eligible or not!"

"Mr. Butler thinks that your All-Star is supported by the vast number of Chinese fans?"

"Hehe, it seems that Mr. Butler has a big opinion on his failure to become a player in the draft! If so, let him score 60 points too. Didn't "USA Today" say that as long as he can also score If you play [-]+, I will help him promote, maybe next year he will also become the top voter. Sorry, I have to warm up and prepare for tonight's game. Let's talk next time!"

"Mr. Zhang..." These reporters wanted to continue asking questions, but the staff of the Bi Arena stopped them.

Zhang Zifeng walked into the arena with a cold face.

damn it!
These bastards looked down on Chinese players and yellow players one by one.

Whenever the Chinese made a little bit of success, they tried their best to discredit them, looking for various reasons to prove their point of view.What to say is only relying on the large number of people and the market to be able to mix in the NBA...

That's right, apart from scoring 60+ once, I don't have any other convincing results.

Has not become the first shooting guard, let alone No.1 in the league.

They have plenty of opportunities to discredit and belittle themselves.

In the past, Zhang Zifeng just wanted to become a professional player, enter the NBA, and gain a firm foothold in the NBA.

Zhang Zifeng has already done this.

He has entered the NBA and has established himself in the NBA.

Because of this, Zhang Zifeng had no goals for a while, and under the stimulation of money, he became swollen and arrogant.

But now Zhang Zifeng has set a new goal for himself.

I want to be the number one shooting guard in the league, and I want to be the No.1 in the league.

I want everyone to clearly realize that Huaxia players are not inferior to anyone!

As long as we Huaxia people are determined to do it, we will be able to create miracles!
Butler, it is your honor to be the stepping stone of Lao Tzu's dream!

Damn you, just wait to be humiliated!
At [-] o'clock in the evening, Zhang Zifeng was the last one to run out of the player tunnel amidst the loud voice of the live DJ.

The fans at the scene immediately welcomed Zhang Zifeng with their roars.

Butler publicly stated that Zhang Zifeng is not eligible to become an All-Star. Isn't that slapping the 76ers fans in the face?

Many 76ers fans even shouted:
"Zhang Zifeng, come on! You are the best!"

"Zhang Zifeng beat the idiot Bull, let him see how powerful you are!"

"Teach that bastard a lesson, let him understand that he is not even qualified to carry your shoes!"

……

With the referee's whistle, the game is about to begin.

Bulls starting lineup: Hinrich, Butler, Mirotic, Gibson, Gasol.

76ers starting lineup: McConnell, Zhang Zifeng, Grant, Smith, Noll.

Jump ball, Gasol is old.

The young and strong Noel easily passed the ball to Zhang Zifeng, who faced Butler this time.

"Hey, Chinaman. Aren't you great? Come and beat me!" Butler shouted at Zhang Zifeng.

If it was the first few games, Zhang Zifeng would definitely beat Butler hard to prove himself when he heard Butler's provocation.

But Zhang Zifeng, who is now sober, has understood that in order to defeat his opponent, he doesn't need to force himself to fight alone.

As long as you can win the opponent, no matter what method is good!
Zhang Zifeng called Smith to cover, and with Smith's cover, Zhang Zifeng got rid of Butler's marking. Before Gibson made a supplementary defense and rushed up, he stepped into the three-point line and hit a jumper to open the scoring for the 76ers.

When the 76ers fans saw Zhang Zifeng scored a goal, they hurriedly cheered for Zhang Zifeng.
