Chapter 142: Delusion?
"That's not going to work," the impatience on Maddy's face overflowed, "There is less and less time left in the game, and the Lakers are still behind." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info This is the home court of the Warriors, and the more you get to the back, the more difficult it is for the Lakers to turn over. ”
Chris Webber began to get smug, "So that's a testament to my greatness, to see people accurately." The Chinese rookie you are optimistic about has now begun to be impatient, and such a low-level mistake actually dribbled the ball to his feet! ”
Mark Jackson said: "The Chinese kid is really starting to be impatient, otherwise there would not be such a low-level mistake. At a time like this, it's a fatal mistake and a huge blow to the team's morale. ”
Maddie refused to admit defeat, and said with a stiff neck: "Chris, the current situation of the Lakers is not good, but it doesn't mean that you can see people accurately." If that's the case, then there are countless people around the world who can see it just like you. You don't have the right to be proud. ”
Those who are optimistic about the Warriors' victory in this game account for more than ninety five of the fans. Chris Webber is optimistic about the Warriors, and he doesn't have the "sharp eye" that is praised, at best, he just follows the crowd.
Maddy continued: "And the Lakers aren't without a chance. After more than five minutes in the fourth quarter, the Warriors scored a total of 5 points in the backcourt, and in the first three quarters, Stephen Curry scored 24 points, Klay Thompson scored 23 points, and the two guns scored a total of 47 points!! ”
"This is an extremely favorable signal for the Lakers, which shows that the Warriors' backcourt two-gun feel is no longer hot!"
Chris Webb said: "What if the Warriors don't feel like a two-gun backcourt anymore? Even with Draymond Green alone, the Warriors can win! ”
Weber's remark is a bit offended.
The Warriors were able to extend their lead in the fourth quarter, and although Draymond Green contributed a lot, Harrison Barnes and Andrew Bogut also contributed a lot. If Draymond Green alone is alone, the Lakers will not be able to be pushed to this point.
Mark Jackson came out again at this time to play the round, "Hehe, what the game is like, let's witness it for ourselves!" Then there is no point in arguing about the two lights here. ”
The trio re-transferred the realization to the field-
Lakers head coach Byron Scott's request for a timeout was over just as the referee urged players from both sides to enter the game and continue the game.
The two sides did not make lineup changes, and both will still use the starting lineup.
On the Warriors' side, because they were leading the game at the moment, the players were all relaxed and laughing.
On the Lakers' side, on the contrary, although the impatience of not being able to turn over for a long time has been suppressed by Scott's timeout, they are in an unfavorable situation, and they can't laugh anyway. Especially Yi Feng, his face was expressionless, as if the player opposite owed him tens of millions of dollars and refused to pay it back.
After the challenge of this pause, Yi Feng of course also knew that there was gradually a problem with his mentality.
At the beginning, he used psychological and tactical layout, full of "the world is a chess player, I am a chess player"; But I didn't expect that in the end, I would unknowingly become a pawn.
All conspiracies and tricks, in the face of absolute strength, have become paper tigers.
At this moment, Yi Feng's feelings about this sentence are definitely very profound.
It is precisely because of his lack of strength and because the Lakers are not strong enough that he wants to limit the opponent's play in every possible way to win this game. Instead of relying on hard power, fight for this victory with dignity.
It did have some effect at first, but it couldn't last long. Despite his deep layout, the Warriors relied on their hard power to survive, and in the end, they restrained the Lakers and became the side that controlled the situation on the court.
After the pause just now, Scott's awakening, Yi Feng also understood that there was an objective gap in the strength of the two sides, which could not be made up by many things. So he also saw that the team was in a disadvantageous situation of falling behind, and he was no longer anxious.
But this does not mean that Yi Feng admits defeat and gives up his efforts.
Only by admitting the reality that their strength is inferior to others can they be more motivated to catch up and be more likely to strive for more chances of victory. Instead of indulging in the sigh of bad luck that "God does not give me".
The game continued, the score was 114-122, and the Lakers trailed by 8 points, but the ball was in the hands of the Warriors at the moment. This is undoubtedly an even worse situation for the Lakers.
With 6 minutes and 42 seconds left in the game, half of the fourth quarter was over. In other words, if the Lakers want to win, the last half of the game is their last chance.
Curry holds the ball at the top of the arc and organizes the offense.
He didn't stay at the top of the arc for long, and after Draymond Green pulled it out, Curry gave the ball directly to Draymond Green and started running without the ball himself.
Curry's scary thing is not only that he can pass and shoot with the ball in his hands, but also that he is still a huge threat when he is off the ball.
There aren't many people in the league today who can pose such a threat with and without the ball. Many stars need to have the ball in their hands to exert their power.
So even if Curry doesn't have the ball in his hands, Clarkson doesn't dare to relax in the slightest. Because in the third quarter, Clarkson suffered Curry's loss.
Draymond Green watched the ball for a while, made a pass feint, deceived Julius Randle, and broke short.
Randle played against Green, so that most of the height that is not dominant in the No. 4 position suddenly has an advantage.
But Green didn't let Randall experience this feeling of "seeing all the mountains at a glance" for too long, and it didn't take long for him to break through.
Randall's hard-won height advantage has become a burden now. He was proud of his movement speed, but he was not as fast as Draymond Green on the other side.
Hibbert saw it all.
He knows that his movement, neither speed nor footwork, is a match for Draymond Green. So after he saw Randall being broken through, he immediately made a decision and stood outside the reasonable collision zone in advance.
How could Bogut, who was full of bad water, miss such a good opportunity. Since Hibbert dared to let him go, then he dared to give Hibbert a little color to see.
After Hibbert was able to hold himself outside the reasonable collision zone, Bogut also touched the basket. He faced Draymond Green, who was breaking in, and pointed to the sky and motioned for him to pass the ball - and it was a pass in the air.
Draymond Green's vision was still okay and Bogut was spotted in the open space on the breakaway.
However, he was a little careless when passing the ball, which was judged by Hibbert.
It was originally a wonderful air catch, but Hibbert poked the ball out of bounds.
It can be said that this defense, Hibbert has made a great contribution. The Warriors failed to attack on the first offense and continued with 13.6 seconds left on the offensive clock.
The Warriors' offense this time was a bit simple and crude.
Klay Thompson catches the ball around the bottom corner of the three-point line -- one of the corners, and if the opponent presses in, the receiver is likely to have to stop the ball.
But Thompson was bold, and in such a place as the bottom corner three-point line, after receiving the ball, he immediately turned around and jumped and threw the ball out.
Maybe it's because the Warriors' eight-point lead at this moment has made Thompson a little profligate. Or maybe it's just because that's how he plays.
All in all, the shot missed. And the rebounding ball was protected by the Lakers.
On the sideline commentary bench, Maddie smiled, "Klay Thompson's shot is up for debate." However, Yi picked up the 7th rebound of the game, which was gratifying. Hahahaha-"
Chris Webb secretly grieved, "How could he be like this!" The game is far from the time when the coffin is finalized, and you can't waste it at this time!! ”
If Chris Webber is sad about Thompson's wave, Yi Feng, who won the rebound, is thanks to Thompson.
Because Thompson missed the ball, he directly gave him a rebound; It also gave him a chance to close the point difference.
Yi Feng directly holds the ball and advances.
Thompson, who was in the middle of the wave, wanted to make up for it, and kept entangled with Yi Feng, preventing him from easily holding the ball and advancing.
Yi Feng was still very stable in protecting the ball, and Thompson's tight follow-up defense did not make him panic in the slightest.
After that low-level mistake, he found that he was more able to calm down. I don't know if it's an illusion, but in this state, he actually found that the movements of the 9 players on the field were a little slower than before.
Maybe it's really a delusion, right? Otherwise, how could it be that both teams of 9 people were physically exhausted?
But such an illusion also made Yi Feng happy - he didn't slow down, everyone else slowed down, isn't it good?
In such a state, it is easier for Yi Feng to deal with Thompson's pressing and defense.
The example of Thompson's missed shot is in front of him, and although the Lakers are still 8 points behind, Yi Feng did not choose to shoot by waves.
When the two were entangled near the three-point line, Yi Feng suddenly stopped sharply, and the ball changed hands in front of his body.
Thompson was like a great enemy, and after Yi Feng's meal, Thompson subconsciously thought that he was going to stop making a move!
After all, at the end of the third quarter, he watched Yi Feng hit a three-point shot from a quick stop on the bench. At this time, you can't be unprepared!
Who knew that Yi Feng changed direction in front of his body again, and his ultra-low dribble made Thompson unable to interfere at all - in a single meal, he changed direction in front of the body continuously, and Yi Feng broke through Thompson and went straight to the inside.
Although Thompson was unable to prevent Yi Feng's breakthrough, he was entangled with Yi Feng from the backcourt, which also slowed down Yi Feng's advance speed and won time for his teammates to return to defense.
As soon as Yi Feng burst to the free throw line, Draymond Green's defense came up - in the Warriors' lineup on the court, Draymond Green was always the fastest to help defense.
Although Draymond Green was two or three laps stronger than himself, Yi Feng did not scare him at all.
Taking advantage of his unstable foothold, Yi Feng forcibly accelerated and broke through to the right side.
Draymond Green reacted quickly and didn't let Yi Feng pass in one step. Moving with small steps, sticking to Yi Feng's side, continuous body contact slowed down Yi Feng's speed.
If Yi Feng keeps killing hard like this, he can only force Draymond Green to make a layup in the end. Although he may not be blocked, it is difficult for him to ensure the success rate of the layup under such a fierce confrontation.
So Yi Feng had no choice but to get rid of Draymond Green, who was as annoying as kraft candy.
Although there are three fouls at the moment, Draymond Green has no scruples, and his defensive actions are still the same as before, opening and closing widely, and there are many small actions of secretly pulling clothes and pinching the weakness of his waist.
Yifeng is honored to enjoy such treatment. He didn't have to lift his clothes to see that his delicate skin, which was envied by his girlfriend Tang Ya, must be blue and purple.
But there's no time to think about that now.
Yi Feng took advantage of Draymond Green's small move again, suddenly stopped, and his left hand also returned a small gesture to him - a push with the momentum, and then he collected the ball.
This one-step fixed-point shot in the free throw line is as simple as eating and drinking for Yi Feng.
Swish!
He hit the ball safely.
At 116:122, the Lakers' trailing point difference was narrowed to 6 points by Yi Feng.
Draymond Green, on the other hand, went to the referee to complain, "Honey, I'm going to report!" That kid got an offensive foul! Did you see it, he just pushed someone!! ”
However, the referee ignored Draymond Green's appeal and simply motioned for the Warriors to serve.
Draymond Green still wanted to pester the referees, but was pulled away by Curry.
"Forget it, Drummond, don't let the small be a big one! Angering the referee and getting a technical foul can be cheap. ”
Draymond Green is still a bit swearing, but he only knows the referee's "zero tolerance" policy, and the previous technical foul can make him suffer a lot. If he did it again, he would have been sent off.
If you just argue a few words, you get a technical foul and end up being sent off, it's not worth it.
Regarding Draymond Green's move, Yi Feng smiled indifferently.
Although he was a little foul in pushing people with his left hand, but after Draymond Green was shaken away by him, he pulled the corner of his clothes so far, isn't it a foul?
The referees are not blind, they know better than anyone else.
Besides, they have already decided that Yi Feng's shot this time is legal, so they won't worry about it anymore, otherwise they will slap themselves in the face.
Curry put his arm around Draymond Green's shoulders and walked away, and the task of advancing with the ball could only be taken over by Klay Thompson. But it doesn't hurt, everyone on the Warriors can advance with the ball, even Andrew Bogut, who has a lot of advances with the ball.
After Thompson advanced to the frontcourt, he made a pick-and-roll with Draymond Green. Yi Feng and Randall also made a change of guard.
Thompson faced Randle's defense and didn't break through with the ball.
Because Yi Feng faintly let go of Draymond Green and joined Randle with Thompson.
Draymond Green retreated beyond the three-point line at the top of the arc after the pick-and-roll - and he also has three-point ability.
But Yi Feng didn't believe in his three-point ability, and chose to come towards Thompson. However, it's not exactly a bag, and his choice of position is more like Thompson, but if Draymond Green shoots a three-pointer, he can still do some interference.
Thompson, naturally, spotted Yi Feng's movements, and he opted for a pass — and the pass was made to Draymond Green, who had blocked with him.
After Green received the ball, he saw that Yi Feng was quite far away from him, and if he chose to shoot three-pointers, Yi Feng would be able to interfere with it limitedly. And if you choose to break through, then Yi Feng will be able to come back in time to make up for the defense.
Draymond Green made a decision right away and shot a three-pointer! (To be continued.) )
