NBA's King of Talking

Chapter 54 The goal is to score three points.

The second quarter began quickly, with the Thunder taking the lead on offense.

Reggie dribbled the ball across half-court and took on Duhon one-on-one.

Reggie missed his jump shot, but Jabe quickly cut to the basket and scored with a one-handed putback!

23:18, the Thunder extended their lead to 5 points.

When Reggie returned to defense, he asked Jia Fei, "You have a really keen sense for offensive rebounds!"

Jia Fei joked, "I noticed something was off about your shot; I felt you weren't going to score!"

Reggie: "..."

The two often joked around, so Jia Fei wasn't worried that Reggie would get angry.

On Magic's offense, Redick was tightly guarded by Jia Fei, and Liggins lacked offensive ability, so the ball eventually ended up in the hands of Big Baby Glen Davis.

Big Baby's weight is indeed comparable to Shaq's, but he is short. As an inside player, once there is no space to attack, he has no offensive advantage under the basket.

As soon as he received the ball under the basket, the Thunder immediately collapsed, surrounding him like dumplings in the center.

Big Baby had difficulty passing the ball and could only force a turnaround jump shot, but it didn't work!

Jia Fei leaped to grab the rebound and passed it to Durant to push the ball up the court.

Durant's three-point attempt missed, and Duhon grabbed the rebound and immediately made a long pass to Redick, who was making a fast break down the court!

However, it was intercepted in mid-air by Jia Fei's long arm.

Jia Fei dribbles the ball on a counterattack, and Redick commits a foul!

Since Howard left the court, the Magic's offense has been extremely stagnant. The players seem to have forgotten how to play basketball and are completely helpless against the opponent's defense.

On the visiting team's bench, Thunder assistant coach Mark Bryant told Cheeks, "Jay's energy on the court is really good!"

Cheeks nodded and said, "His athleticism is really good, and he's big enough. He has the potential to become a defensive anchor on the perimeter."

The Magic couldn't get going and had to bring in Turkoglu to bolster their offense, replacing Liggins, who had been virtually invisible on the court.

The Thunder, on the other hand, relied on the advantage of their second unit to firmly control the situation on the court.

At halftime, they led their opponents by 7 points, 50-43.

The second half followed a similar rhythm to the first. When Howard was on the court, the Magic had an inside advantage and could compete with their opponents. However, when the second unit came on, their offense was immediately contained. The team's sharpshooter, Redick, went 0-for-6 from the field, scoring only one point from a free throw made on three seconds of defensive pressure – a truly dismal performance.

Ultimately, the Thunder, thanks to their outstanding overall performance, easily defeated the Magic 102-92 on the road, achieving their second consecutive win since the All-Star break.

本场比赛,贾飞出战15分01秒,3投2中,其中3分球1投0中,罚球两罚全中,得到6分4个篮板1次助攻2个抢断3个盖帽,再一次填满了数据栏。他的这3个盖帽其中两个送给了雷迪克。

In the locker room after the game, head coach Brooks praised Jia Fei's enthusiasm and encouraged him not to be afraid of missing shots, but to take decisive shots when the opportunity arises.

Since entering the rotation, Jia Fei has performed well in both games. Although he doesn't score many points, he also takes very few shots. His only regret is that he hasn't made a three-pointer yet, which makes him feel that he is not a true "3D player" at the moment, but at most a "2D player".

That evening, Jia Fei checked the system. He hadn't completed a single task yet, but considering Reddick seemed somewhat displeased with him today, he should get some anger points.

Upon checking, he was pleasantly surprised to find that Reddick had generated 11 points of anger towards him, which allowed him to exchange for 1100 points.

Adding the 1522 points remaining in his account, he now has a total of 2622 points.

Jia Fei immediately exchanged the 2622 points for "Iverson's Peak Technique Fusion". In just a moment, 2000 points were deducted, and the fusion rate increased from 11% to 12%.

This further proves that it takes 2000 points to increase the percentage from 10% to 20% by 1%.

Jia Fei remains committed to his plan: before the integration is complete, he wants to become an outstanding 3D player and ensure his survival in the league.

On March 4, the Thunder played their third away game after the All-Star break, against the Hawks.

In this game, the Thunder's starters were in very poor form. Although the team's second unit played very well, they still suffered a narrow defeat in the end.

贾飞本场比赛继续替补出战,打了13分59秒,4投2中得到7分3个篮板2次助攻1个抢断,遗憾的是还是没有能够命中3分球。

Having finally ended their road trip, the Thunder returned to Oklahoma City on a chartered plane to prepare for their home game against the Mavericks on March 6.

The Thunder have a very good overall record of 29 wins and 8 losses, currently ranking second in the Western Conference. Although the team has experienced injuries, they have all affected role players. The core trio of young stars are all healthy, as are the two big men, Ibaka and Perkins.

Facing the Mavericks at home, the Thunder don't need any motivation; all the players will give it their all. The reason is simple: they lost to this opponent in last season's Western Conference Finals.

After winning the championship last season, the Mavericks dismantled their championship roster, and their record has declined significantly this season. They are currently ranked only 7th in the Western Conference, and their playoff prospects are not optimistic.

On the evening of the 6th, at the Ford Center.

This game was broadcast live across the United States, attracting a huge audience and drawing massive numbers of fans. The home team's supporters were eager to witness their team's revenge against the Mavericks, even if it was just a regular season game.

Jia Fei will once again come off the bench in this game, and his goal for the game is to make a three-pointer.

Before the game, both the home and away teams were practicing. Jia Fei immediately spotted a familiar face in the Mavericks' lineup—Yi Jianlian!

On January 7, 2012, the Dallas Mavericks officially announced the signing of Yi Jianlian to a one-year contract. However, due to the NBA lockout, he chose to play for the Guangdong team temporarily. During a game, he was accidentally injured in the knee by a teammate, which delayed his contact with NBA teams and postponed his return to the NBA.

In today's NBA, Yi Jianlian is the only Chinese player, and even among Asians, there are only three in the current NBA: him, Jia Fei, and Jeremy Lin.

Jia Fei found Yi Lian and greeted him with a smile in Cantonese: "Hey, Yi Lian, it's me, Jia Fei!"

Yi Jianlian was stunned. He never expected that the Thunder player in front of him, who was of the same race as him, would speak Cantonese with him.

“I’m Yi Jianlian, and Lei Hou Jia Fei. I never expected Lei to speak Cantonese!” Yi Jianlian said in a deep voice.

“It’s nothing, I learned it from a movie!” Jia Fei finally switched back to Mandarin; he couldn’t keep up the act anymore.

"Haha, Jia Fei, Lei is so handsome!" A-Lian laughed.
