Chapter 259 Who is better to trade Embiid for?
After landing, Embiid said proudly: "Jack, your pass is good, pass it to me more. I will lead you to win this game!"

Damn you, who are you!
Even if Zhang Zifeng is not here, there are still us.When will it be your turn for the 76ers!

Hearing Embiid talking big, including Rondo, the 76ers players were a little dissatisfied.

Usually Embiid would not be like this, but he was suppressed by Zhang Zifeng for too long, and once he was proud, he got carried away.

Zhang Zifeng and the others were a little dissatisfied, but they still had basic professional ethics.

Since the head coach has decided to focus on Embiid, even if they are dissatisfied, they will press their anger and execute according to the tactics.

This time Embiid was full of energy, facing the Grizzlies in black and white.

With the cooperation of his teammates, Embiid played impressively, not lacking in games at all.

At halftime, the Grizzlies entered the halftime break with a 47-44 lead of 3 points.

In 17 minutes in the first half, Embiid scored 19 points and 5 rebounds.

Because of him, the 76ers were able to bite the score.At least Embiid thinks so!
Gasol's performance was not bad either. Gasol had 14 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists in the first half.

Sitting in the VIP room, Sam Hinch and Leon Rose both smiled when they saw Embiid's performance.

Embiid is outstanding, and their plan can only work.

The first half was the stage for Embiid and Gasol Jr.
Zhang Zifeng scored 2 points with 6 three-pointers, 4 rebounds and 4 assists.
Such data is simply terrible for Zhang Zifeng.

Brett Brown frowned when he saw Zhang Zifeng's data.Even if you want to win Embiid, you can't make Zhang Zifeng's statistics too ugly.

Otherwise, those who didn't know would think that the 76ers were going to suppress Zhang Zifeng.

Arouse the dissatisfaction of the fans, it will be a big deal.

Brett Brown pondered how to change this situation.

After the start of the third quarter, the Grizzlies at home tried their best to win the game.

They wanted to extend their lead and secure victory.

But the 76ers don't want to lose, especially Embiid, he doesn't want to lose the game when he is in charge of the game.

Isn't this telling others that Embiid doesn't have the strength to lead a team at all!

After the contest in the first half, he knew that it was not a good choice to beat Gasol Jr. with his current strength.

In order to win, Embiid also increased his interaction with his teammates at this time.

Zhang Zifeng and Grant made three-pointers respectively. They led the team to play an 8-3 attack wave shortly after the beginning of the third quarter, helping the 76ers overtake by 1 point.

Then Gasol and Randolph teamed up with 6 points to help the Grizzlies lead again.

Embiid hit back a three-pointer, and Zhang Zifeng also hit a three-pointer.

第三节还有2分25秒时，76人队以66-67落后1分。

Afterwards, the two sides played several offenses each, and the 76ers combined inside and outside, and the fight with the Grizzlies was inextricable.

At the last moment, Embiid made a layup. At the end of the third quarter, the 76ers led 77-76 by 1 point.

During the break, Embiid sat in a chair and had just finished a glass of sports drink.

But it wasn't enough, he was too thirsty.

Embiid asked the staff for another drink and gulped it down.

In the first three quarters, Embiid played 35 minutes, which is the longest playing time since joining the NBA.

Although he was very tired, Embiid still didn't want to rest, he wanted to take a breath and continue fighting.

Brett Brown smiled and said to Embiid, "Joel, you did a good job. You are very tired now. For your health, you need to rest. Leave the next game to your teammates! "

Embiid was taken by surprise, and I was benched in the crucial fourth quarter.

Embiid said quickly, "Coach, I'm not tired, really. I can continue the game!"

Brett Brown patted Embiid on the shoulder and said, "No, no, no, I can't risk your health. Your task today has been completed, sit down and rest with peace of mind. Trust your teammates, they will not waste Your hard work!"

"No, coach. I..." Embiid wanted to stand up and ask to play.

But Brett Brown put his hand on Embiid's shoulder to keep him from getting up, and still smiled and said: "Joel, your career is still very long, don't take risks. Trust your teammates!"

"I……"

"I'm the coach, didn't you hear? Sit down!" Brett Brown shouted angrily.

Seeing that the head coach was angry, Embiid didn't dare to speak again.

"Very good, rest at ease." Brett Brown called Noel.

In the fourth quarter, Embiid went off and Noel went on.

At the beginning of the game, Zhang Zifeng took the ball to the frontcourt and made a pick-and-roll cooperation with Noel.

Zhang Zifeng took advantage of the situation and rushed into the inside line.

All the audience set their eyes on Zhang Zifeng.

Facing Zhang Zifeng who was rushing in, Gasol Jr. stuck up.

Although the defense is still active, but after fighting Embiid for three quarters, Gasol's physical fitness is not as good as it was at the beginning of the game.

Zhang Zifeng rested for nearly three quarters, waiting for work at leisure.

A change of direction connection accelerated, and Zhang Zifeng swayed past Gasol.Killed to the basket, a beautiful change of hands pulls the bar, and hooks the ball into the basket with his left hand.

Tony Allen defended well, but at the age of 35, his footsteps could no longer keep up with Zhang Zifeng's impact.

Under the leadership of Zhang Zifeng, the 76ers took turns attacking the inside of the Grizzlies.

For the old Grizzlies, Gasol alone can't stop the firepower of the 76ers of the Youth Army.

When the full-time whistle blew, the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Memphis Grizzlies 99-91.

灰熊队的小加索尔得到了26分，12个篮板和4次助攻3个盖帽。兰多夫得到12分和10个篮板。

Joel Embiid of the 76ers played 33 minutes and scored 30 points, creating a new high for his playing time and scoring.

Compared with Embiid, Zhang Zifeng scored 22 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds today, and his performance was at best a pass.

After the game, Embiid received countless praises, 30+10+5, the data of a top center, which made countless people shine.

"New OK Group? ——USA TODAY.

"The Rise of a Top Center! - "Washington News"

"Moses Malon II! "--"New York Times"

……

Next, the 76ers played against the Pelicans, Pistons, Raptors, Lakers, and Nets.

Embiid continued to perform well, averaging 20+10+5 top center forward data per game.

But the only bad thing is that in these five games, Zhang Zifeng averaged 21.4 points, 6 assists, and 6 rebounds per game, which is completely incomparable with the beginning of the season, but it is still considered a pass.

The inside-out combination of Zhang Zifeng and Embiid helped the 76ers achieve 3 wins and 2 losses.

20胜5负的战绩力压骑士的20胜6负的战绩，排在东部第一，让76人的球迷欢喜不已。

Embiid has performed well recently, getting top center data and attracting countless media pursuits.

This made 76ers general manager Sam Hinch hesitate for a while, considering whether to trade Embiid.

But it was only a moment of hesitation, and Sam Hinch immediately strengthened his belief.

Change!
Not to mention that Embiid didn't recognize the reality and wanted to fight Zhang Zifeng for power.

As for Embiid's greedy agent Lion, he dared to renew his contract and asked for a four-year maximum salary contract of 1.12 million.

Who does Leon Rose think his player Embiid is?

After three seasons, he dared to ask for a maximum salary after playing less than [-] games.

Damn it, don't say you are worth the price.

Even if you are worth the price, I will not give it to you.

I gave it to you, what will the 76ers do when Zhang Zifeng renews his contract?
Give a middle class contract?
Damn, as long as the contract extension is not the maximum salary, I am afraid that Zhang Zifeng will immediately turn around and transfer to other teams for free.

If I don’t say it, I’ll be made fun of by the entire league, and angry 76ers fans have the guts to burn down my house.

Embiid is determined to change!
Just trade him for whom?
