The older superstars of the NBA

"What do you think? The Timberwolves are eager to start a trade with us. Their conditions are not the best. However, for us, letting Zhao go to Minnesota is the best choice..."

"Either we trade him, or we keep him. It seems that we are left with only these two options..."

After winning the first comeback game, Zhao Feiyang undoubtedly came to the fore. At this time, the Golden State Warriors were also holding a management meeting to discuss his future.

After the boss Joe Lacob asked, other shareholders also discussed.

The general manager of the team, Bob Michael, still stood up and said, "I said before that we need three games to verify his ability...I think we must give him this opportunity, and now it's only one game... …”

"What does the urging of the Timberwolves matter to us? Anyway, their record this season is very average, whether Zhao goes early or late will not have much impact on them..."

"And the Timberwolves where I can communicate with them..."

This time, none of the shareholders stood up and sang against it.

Even the previous Pol Brooks didn't disagree.

"Recently, the tickets for the arena are selling well, and the attendance rate of the last game is the best in the recent period...The tickets for the next game have also been sold out...."

"Anyway, as long as it doesn't hinder the team from selling tickets, I don't think it's okay to give him a chance..."

Pol Brooks spoke.

No one else expressed any dissent.

Boss Joe Lacob made the final call.

"Okay, let's talk after the three games."

"As long as they win all three games, the team will keep him, but if they lose any of them, they will send him to Minnesota..."

Game day is coming soon.

The Golden State Warriors host the Phoenix Suns in this game.

The Phoenix Suns have a mediocre record this season. At this time, they didn't even make it into the top eight, and only ranked tenth.

To put it in a less pleasant way, they are sixth from bottom in the Western Conference.

It is slightly worse than the previous New Orleans Pelicans.

Before the game started, head coach Steve Kerr arranged the lineup in the locker room. This time he still wanted to put Zhao Feiyang in the starting position, but Zhao Feiyang declined in public.

"Coach, my ankle is not very comfortable, I think the starting lineup may not be suitable for me......"

Steve Kerr was quite helpless towards Zhao Feiyang's attitude.

Sean Livingston once again made up the starting No. [-] position.

Soon the two sides started fighting.

The Oracle Arena was full for this game, and the atmosphere was even more enthusiastic than the previous game.Many fans are still wearing Zhao Feiyang's team uniform, holding signs cheering for him, as if they have become his fans.

After the start of the first quarter, the Warriors maintained their lead at the beginning. After all, the Suns' lineup was really broken, and they were not even a star behind.

Also because the team is leading, the players' state and cooperation are not bad, and the passing and cutting cooperation between each other is very tacit.

Head coach Steve Kerr also showed an extremely rare smile, and changed his usual behavior of standing in front of the team bench with his hands on his hips, and sat directly on a chair to rest.

Klay Thompson scored the team's highest score in this quarter. He played the entire first quarter and scored 13 points. His efficiency can be said to be the highest in the team.

However, after a short break, when the game entered the second quarter, the situation on the field gradually changed.

A backup guard of the Suns gradually played out and began to sprint towards the Warriors' basket through the cooperation of his teammates.

"Isaiah Thomas?"

"Why haven't you heard of this person?"

Although Zhao Feiyang looked indifferent on the surface, he was still very concerned about the situation on the field in his heart.

After discovering that Isaiah Thomas played brilliant performances one after another, he couldn't help but pay attention to this small player who is only about 1 meters tall.

"He was a rookie player in the same year as me, that is, he entered the league in 11. This guy was originally selected with the 30th pick in the second round...."

"At that time, many people thought that he could not stay in the NBA. Unexpectedly, he played a surprising performance in the Kings. He averaged 11.5 points per game in the first season, 13.9 points per game in the second season, and even more in the third season. It's an average of 20.3 points per game...."

"Although this guy is short, he is really powerful..."

Teammate Brandon Ezel, who was sitting next to Zhao Feiyang, explained.

Brandon Ezel is a fringe player of the team, the kind who averages less than 10 minutes per game and less than 1 point per game. It can be said that he may be cut by the team at any time.

In daily games, unless the team leads by a large score, it is basically impossible to appear on the field.

Such a young man has been in the league for several years.

Zhao Feiyang has a good relationship with him, it is because this young man is very hard in training, out of appreciation Zhao Feiyang often helps each other to practice together with him.

Hearing what his teammates said, Zhao Feiyang also paid attention to this player named Isaiah Thomas.

On the field.

The Suns attack.

Isaiah Thomas held the ball across half court, and as soon as he passed the halfway line, he suddenly accelerated with the ball.

At this time, it was Dennis Grant, a rookie who had just been replaced on the court, defending him.

Facing this defender who was a head shorter than himself, Dennis Grant didn't have any vigilance at all, but he didn't seem to care much.

As soon as Isaiah Thomas accelerated, Dennis Grant followed him.Seeing the opponent rushing into the basket and sprinting towards the penalty area, Dennis Grant clung to him tightly, and jumped up at the moment the opponent jumped up.

The two met in mid-air, and Dennis Grant threw himself at each other with all his might.

However, his defense didn't help, and Isaiah Thomas threw the ball directly with a left-handed lob.

The perfect move that resembles a hook not only avoids Dennis Grant, but also successfully avoids the striker Maris Speights who jumps up from the inside.

Swish.

The basketball falls firmly into the hoop.

"Depend on!"

"It's just that close..."

Dennis Grant shook his head in regret.

He thought that if he worked harder, he would definitely be able to cap Isaiah Thomas' ball.

It was the Warriors' turn to fight back.

Dennis Grant dribbles past.

Isaiah Thomas also marked up, and the two pushed towards the half-court together.Perhaps it was the "almost" before that made Dennis Grant very upset. After the ball passed halftime, he didn't think about dribbling to organize an attack, but played one-on-one with Isaiah Thomas.

"Pull away."

"Everyone...pull away."

Dennis Grant waved his hand.

Seeing this, the other Warriors players also made room for him.

Isaiah Thomas remained calm, staring at Dennis Grant and the basketball in his hand.

I thought that Dennis Grant would dribble and shake next, but what everyone didn't expect was that he seemed to want to play tricks on this opponent who was much shorter than himself.

Dennis Grant didn't make any extraordinary moves, but used his body against Isaiah Thomas, as if he wanted to deliberately play with his body.

"Come on! Little dwarf, don't say that I bully you... who made you so short..."

"If I remember correctly, have you been an actor in Hollywood before? You must have seen "Snow White"? Did you play the dwarf in it?"

Isaiah Thomas' complexion was a little ugly, and his black skin was even a little purple, but he still didn't respond, and he still looked like he was staring at him.

Seeing that he was ignoring him, Dennis Grant was a little bored, so he simply straightened up his body and slammed into him.

Unexpectedly, at the moment Dennis Grant bumped into him, Isaiah Thomas seemed to have been prepared, and suddenly backed away.

Dennis Grant lost the confrontation target, staggered and almost fell, and Isaiah Thomas stretched out his hand to grab the ball immediately.

Snapped.

He slapped the basketball off Dennis Grant's hand.

The basketball rolled out, and Isaiah Thomas picked it up and accelerated towards the half court.Dennis Grant, who was intercepted, was furious, turned around and chased after Isaiah Thomas.

The two reached the basket one after the other, and Dennis Grant saw the right time and suddenly flew towards Isaiah Thomas.

When his hand was about to touch the basketball, Isaiah Thomas deliberately adjusted his body to face him.

The hands of the two collided.

Isaiah Thomas covers the other side and throws the ball.

call out.

The referee's whistle sounded.

A moment later, the basketball thrown by Isaiah Thomas also fell into the basket smoothly.

Two plus one.

The whole audience exclaimed.

Although Isaiah Thomas is a player of the Phoenix Suns, his performance on the court really surprised the fans.

Especially his height of 1 meters makes the fans feel admiration.

在这个动辄1米9或2米的nba，1米75的身高实在是微不足道。即便是当初天赋爆棚的阿伦.艾弗森，1米83的官方身高也极大地限制了他的发挥。

Everyone knows that if Allen Iverson can have a height of more than 1 meters, then his achievements will only be higher and stronger.

This is especially true for a small player like Isaiah Thomas. He is 1 meters tall, let alone a professional player, even if he is slightly inferior to some ordinary people.

Being able to qualify for the NBA with such a size, and to be able to play this kind of performance, can already be said to be quite brilliant!

"nice shot!"

Zhao Feiyang, who was sitting on the bench, almost shouted.

Fortunately, he just moved his lips and pretended to touch his head with the hand he just raised to fool him. Otherwise, this kind of applause for his opponent may cause dissatisfaction among many Warriors fans.

"Zhao, warm up."

"Wait for you to replace Dennis..."

When Zhao Feiyang was watching the play, the head coach Steve Kerr came over and said a few words.

He knew very well that this was Coach Steve wanting himself to go up and limit Isaiah Thomas.
