Chapter 57 [The Leader of Memphis]

The Lakers flew to Memphis, and Ye Feng fell asleep as soon as he got on the plane, and he was too lazy to say anything.

The loss in this game was very disgusting. The Lakers players all knew why they lost, but no one came out to blame them. Kobe was successful and Kobe lost. If he played beautifully in eight of the ten games and was dizzy in two games, you can only say that he was not perfect enough. As the strongest point Kobe did not attack, it would be difficult for Lakers players to win.

When getting off the plane, Divac walked to Ye Feng and said lightly: "I'm very depressed? If you played a few more Westers, you might win this game. Don't think too much, no one can go well, this is the case in the NBA."

"I just hate losing." Ye Feng smiled.

The Lakers are Kobe's team. It is natural for the boss to get a lot of shots. The head coach didn't say anything. What could he say? Did he shout at the boss and let him pass the ball to himself? Whoever wants to do this in the Lakers, then he definitely doesn't want to mess around. Ye Feng knew his weight. He didn't have the strength to challenge Kobe, nor did he have the privilege of Kobe. That was the feeling that Kobe had just arrived at the Lakers and was a younger brother by O'Neal.

The next morning, Ye Feng was sleeping in a daze and received a call from Alier.

Ellie said in one breath: "You kid is so inhumane. You haven't even called me for so many days when you've been out, so haven't even called me on your own initiative? Last night, I saw you stupidly stand in the second half and couldn't receive the pass, so I wanted to call you and laugh at you. Hahaha."

Is this woman a pervert? Ye Feng suddenly woke up a little and said nonsense: "Dear, I'm very tired from the away game. After the game, I have to catch a plane to the next place. If I call you, I will miss you. When I see the rebounds, I think of your face. Then how can I play basketball? The shooting is inaccurate."

Alile laughed. "Really? Do you think of me when you see the rebound?"

Ye Feng smiled and said, "No, your face is too sharp. When I see the rebound, I will only think of Yao Ming." (Yao Ming: "Ignorance...")

Alile smiled and said, "When you return to Los Angeles, there is good news to tell you. You can sleep a little longer and play the game well. I'm dead, go by."

"good."

After Ailier said that, she hung up the phone, and Ye Feng was no longer sleepy. The team was resting today and the game was only tomorrow. He wanted to go out for a walk, after all, this is a city he might be traded to.

Memphis is not big, but because of the famous singer "Elvis", he is also famous. There has been a big event in Memphis history: the famous black leader Martin Luther King was assassinated here.

To this day, Memphis is still one of the most dangerous cities in the United States. It is said that you must not walk around alone after dark here. You usually have to keep some change in your pocket. If you encounter someone who wants money, you will immediately take it out for the other party. You must bring your cell phone and call 911 whenever there is any situation.

Ye Feng took a taxi to the famous music street. As soon as he got off the bus, a black man with strong limbs and looked not old, begging him for money. In an instant, his impression of the city was greatly reduced. The streets he passed by also seemed very desolate. An unknown jazz band was conducting a street concert. A band member promoted their CDs to passers-by. The performance was quite lively, but it was a bit chaotic, making people reluctant to stay for a long time.

After a while, Ye Feng got on the Duck Head Tourist Bus parked on the street. This is a tourist bus that is both amphibious and land-based, and there are also in Los Angeles. Professional tour guides will take tourists from other places to see the main street scenery of Memphis, saving time and trouble. Several fans on the tour bus recognized him, took photos with their mobile phones, and asked for autographs. He found that he was already very famous.

The driver of the Duck Car is very dedicated and constantly introduces people to the main attractions of Memphis: Elvis recording venue, a court building that has filmed five movies, famous lawyers' streets and mansions, hospitals, etc. It is meaningless. Only when the Duck Car is sightseeing on the Mississippi River did Ye Feng feel a little comfortable. The natural scenery on both sides is the best thing in the city.

If Marc Gasol can get a good rookie next season, the Grizzlies have a good future, but the city is too small and there are too few Chinese people to compare with Los Angeles, so he is not interested in playing here.

The next day, the Lakers challenged the Grizzlies away. This game was very easy. The Grizzlies could not make the climate by relying on Paul Gasol. Second-year rookie Rudy Gay was luxurious in data, but in fact he had limited ability. He played solely by physical fitness and had little influence on the outcome of the game. This year's 4th rookie point guard Mike Conley performed worse, averaging only 9 points and 4 assists per game, which did not meet people's expectations.

Ye Feng returned to the starting lineup and was responsible for defending Guy. The two dunks were against each other, which attracted the attention.

As a result, Ye Feng completely suppressed Guy. He forced Guy away from the basket with his entangled defense and could only jump from the outside. Guy lacked offensive flexibility and creativity, and mainly relied on the first step of the way to pass and pull jump shots. His offensive methods were no more than Ye Feng. Pulling and shooting in front of Ye Feng was the worst strategy. Guy lost his physical advantage, made 3 of 12 shots in the game, and got a big shot. On the other hand, Ye Feng singled Guy, who was all at a low post, took the ball and used his physical advantage to hit the basket. Guy, who weighed less than 100 kilograms, could not exert his outstanding jumping power under the fierce physical confrontation, and was bullied hard.

If Gasol hadn't defeated Odom, the Grizzlies would have to surrender in the first half. Gasol played very smartly and could turn around and jump shots with his height advantage. He could accurately shoot mid-range shots, and he could support the passes at both high and low positions, which was hard to defend.

There is a habit of falsely reporting height in the league. Gasol plays as a power forward. When he first entered the league, he reported 211CM in height. In fact, he is taller than Bynum, at least 215CM. In addition, he also has an abnormal wingspan of 230CM. Relying on these advantages, Odom is a little further away and cannot block his mid-range shot. After playing for more than 30 minutes, he quietly scored 22 points, 14 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks.

Gasol is one of the most underrated stars in the league. Because he failed to lead the team to break through the first round of the playoffs, people ignored his strong personal ability. In fact, the Grizzlies have been supported by him in recent years. Gasol is rarely beaten up against Garnett and Duncan, such as super insiders. He is even more like a nemesis when facing Yao Ming. Whether in the NBA or international arena, he often makes Yao Ming defeated.

There are many types of leaders, some are responsible for grabbing points, while others are also very good at not scoring points. Gasol is also an excellent leader. His ability to support is outstanding and can drive the entire team. With him, the team's overall offense will become smooth. His style of play is very soft, but he is a smart soft boy.

109 to 83, the Lakers won the game with a score of 34 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists in this game, and used their comprehensive performance to respond to some fans' doubts about his failure to pass. Ye Feng also performed well in this game, scoring 17 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks. Odom performed poorly and only scored 8 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists.

Ye Feng speculated that after this game, he was afraid that the Lakers uniform team would be more interested in Gasol.
