Bai Feng was not the kind of player who would mess around if he could.
Even though his performance on the court most of the time was regarded by some superficial fans as a "hooligan" way of playing.
Of course, Bai Feng did not have a complete desire for victory. It was just his obsession with " rationality."
He also knew the current situation of the Knicks. It was difficult for such a lineup to win against a strong team. Naturally, the team's management did not have any requirements for the team's performance.
However, Bai Feng demanded that he play as " reasonably " as much as possible in every round. Putting aside his habits, this was the most important source of income for him at the moment.
Compared to a teammate like Stoudemire, Bai Feng was not rich yet. After all, he did not even have an entry-level luxury car and lived in the team apartment.
As for what the fans thought, he did not care.
……
The good news was that as time passed, more and more New York fans and media began to notice the deep and powerful high-level data under Bai Feng's " flat " performance.
His efficiency, assist to error ratio, true hit rate…Bai Feng was the best in every aspect.
Along with his average of 15 6 per game, which was already a good number, recently, among the New York fans, the " punk " point guard had transformed into a stable point guard!
That's right, the New York fans 'impression of Bai Feng had completely changed.
He had now become synonymous with " stability."
What did this mean?
It meant that when the Knicks had a scoring drought on the court and their offense and defense were chaotic, as long as Bai Feng played, he could guarantee that order would be restored.
It meant that the Knicks had made a mistake on the offensive end, and the opponent launched a fast counterattack. Bai Feng would definitely appear in the most correct defensive position.
It meant that no matter how strong the opponent was, he could make a good contribution in every game.
……
The Knicks fans who saw this began to look forward to the future.
They were not blind to the game. Of course, they knew that the Knicks 'current poor record had something to do with the chaotic composition of the players and the lack of a good team system.
Bai Feng had many solid passing opportunities, but his teammates couldn't grasp them.
Many times, Bai Feng's defensive choices were also very good, but his teammates would always leave people out to give opportunities.
Once all these problems were solved one day, the Knicks would be very powerful.
The fans who saw this began to discuss a topic on the Knicks forum and began to speak to the Knicks management: "We like Bai Feng and don't want the team to trade him!”
……
This situation made the Knicks 'forum administrator feel a little strange. In his impression, didn't fans always like players who were hot-blooded, passionate, and dared to show themselves? They even liked players who would trash talk or fight with their opponents on the court. Why would he like a player like Bai Feng now?
Had the times changed?
He asked this question on the forum.
The answer he got was," It's not that the times have changed. We fans have always liked players who play basketball well and can lead the team to victory and even to the championship. No matter what type of person he is, whether he has a bad temper or is calm and steady, we will all like him.”
The fans 'petition was reflected to the manager.
The fans 'unwillingness to trade Bai Feng was a problem that troubled General Manager Steve Mills.
This problem had already formed a dead knot.
If they didn't add Bai Feng to the trade list, the Nuggets wouldn't have traded Cameron Anthony to the Knicks.
Not to mention that the Knicks fans were unwilling, even if these fans agreed to trade Anthony for Bai Feng, Mills would probably still be conflicted.
Bai Feng and Anthony…
In Steve Mills's opinion, it was difficult to give up.
Bai Feng was the future. He had unlimited potential. Now, as he slowly grew, he was already a 15 6 qualified starting point guard, and he was extremely stable.
As a rookie, this number was very good. The same year's top scorer, John Wall, was only 16 8, not much better than Bai Feng.
As for Anthony, he was one of the strongest players in the league. As long as he came and teamed up with Stoudemire, the Knicks would immediately become a playoffs team. Moreover, he could bring a lot of popularity, and the Knicks 'home tickets would be more expensive.
……
Sitting in the VIP room on the top floor of the restored madison square, watching the game between the Knicks and the Heat, Steve Mills was indeed very difficult to decide.
Was it Bai Feng? Or Anthony?
……
On the court, it was once again the Knicks 'turn to attack. Stoudemire chose to come out and do a pick-and-roll with Bai Feng. After the pick-and-roll, he quickly opened his hands and made a request.
But Bai Feng saw the Flash lying in ambush in the corner!
Therefore, when Bai Feng raised his hand, the ball did not go to the basket. Instead, it went to Landry Fields beside him. The latter did not hesitate after receiving the ball. In the face of a fleeting opportunity, he decisively shot and hit the three-pointer!
……
At this moment, the big screen in the stadium was once again shown to Bai Feng, only to discover that he had already retreated to his own half of the field!
Seeing this scene, Steve Mills seemed to have an answer in his heart.
