Chapter 277: Give back to the other in his way
Basketball into the net.
There was a few tenths of a second of silence in the restless Oracle Arena, where they had seen these threes countless times, but the player who had shot such a three-pointer in this arena before had either Stephen or Clay.
However, this time it was the players wearing the away team's jerseys, and Lin Feng ended the first quarter of the game in a way familiar to Warriors fans.
ESPN commentary seat, Ruby was full of praise for Lin Feng's three-point whistle: "Lin Feng once again showed the world his ability to deal with key balls, he is really a natural "killer", the more critical the moment, the more calm he is, the previous kills are obviously not accidental, Lin Feng has the temperament of this kind of killing game." ”
"Ruby, don't you think you're a little too mythical Lin Feng, that's right, he's an excellent basketball player, but that's all, judging from the first quarter of the game, he performed well enough, and it is precisely because of his excellent performance that the Knicks can bite the score, however, you can't expect Lin Feng to have such a performance in every quarter, once his physical problems occur, the Knicks will also be in a difficult situation, and the Warriors will not, they have many very good players, they can take over the game at any time and play an attack wave, That's why I'm bullish on the Warriors. West said in a deep voice.
After hearing West's words, Ruby burst out laughing: "West, you must not know what I can laugh at." ”
"Indeed, if you don't say it, I'll think you're mentally achievable." West said with a calm face, no matter what the reason, after he finished evaluating Lin Feng, Ruby laughed, which was a kind of disrespect to him.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't laugh because of you, but I suddenly remembered something funny." Ruby said, "What you just said, someone once said, is almost the same, so I can't help but think of him." ”
"Oh? Who is in the same opinion as me? West asked.
"Coleman." Ruby spread his hands: "A while ago, he was very popular, in the game between the Knicks and the Cavaliers, Coleman said almost the same thing as you just now, and the result, haha, everyone knows." ”
Hearing this, West's already gloomy face changed again, and he said coldly: "You mean, my fate will be the same as Coleman's?" ”
"Oh, no, I just thought of Coleman and the bets he made with Lin Feng." Ruby smiled and said: "However, I still think that it is not very reliable to expect Lin Feng to play "abnormal", according to past experience, the best way to win the Knicks is to defend Lin Feng with 2/3 people in the whole court, cut off his contact with his teammates as much as possible, and then completely drag him down, just like the game where the Bulls almost won, on the contrary, if you fight with Lin Feng to attack, he will often die very miserably, judging from the competitive situation shown by Lin Feng in the first quarter, he is still only in a warm-up mode. ”
"What? Warm-up mode?? West pouted: "Ruby, the more you talk about it, the more outrageous it becomes, Lin Feng has already scored 18 points in the first quarter and handed out 7 assists, such a performance is just a warm-up??" ”
"Compared to his previous games, maybe yes, because I watched almost all of Lin Feng's games live, I think I know him better." Ruby shrugged.
"It's just a shame, look, Lin Feng will definitely not perform more than the first quarter in the next game!" West glared and gave Ruby an angry look.
End of intersessional break.
At the beginning of the second quarter of the game, the two sides were still rotating lineups, and Lin Feng sat on the bench after completing the three-point whistle in the first quarter.
The Warriors took the lead in attacking, and their head coach Kerr made a deep rotation of the lineup, with Stephen, Clay, and Green not on the court, but the Warriors' fighting power should not be underestimated.
Iguodala and Speights stepped forward to make a blocking and pick-and-roll combination, the former held the ball down, encountered the defense, and then threw it to Speights who was standing on the outside, and the latter received the ball and made a direct three-point shot.
Swish!
The basketball slices through the air in a low, flat arc and hits.
41:36!
As soon as the Warriors came up, they once again stretched the score to 5 points, and the worse news was that Speights' "overhead gun" actually fired.
The Knicks attacked, and after the basketball was reversed several times, it was in the hands of Cook, who shot outside the three-point line and wanted to respond with a shot, but unfortunately, the shot was missed.
The Warriors seized the opportunity and played a beautiful counterattack, with Livingston hitting a good shot.
43:36!
The Warriors continue to widen the spread.
In the next three minutes, the Warriors' bench played well, Speights hit another three-pointer, Iguodala also broke through to the basket to cause damage, and the Knicks only had Cook hit a three-pointer.
The difference between the two sides was suddenly widened to 12 points.
51:39!
Knicks head coach Phils was forced to call a timeout.
ESPN commentary seat.
West's face was full of pride: "Look, what do I say, the overall strength of the Warriors is much stronger than the Knicks, and now the Warriors have a 12-point lead, and if they continue to play at this pace, at halftime, the Warriors may be able to extend the advantage to more than 20 points, so that they will firmly hold the advantage of this game in their hands." ”
"It's too early to say this, Lin Feng will come back after the pause, I don't think he will watch the score difference continue to widen." Ruby said.
"Of course he doesn't want the score difference to continue to expand, but this is not something he can control, after a while, Stephen, Clay, and Green will all return to the court, do you think Lin Feng can close the score with the three of them on the field at the same time?!" West said coldly.
"It's not necessarily, no one on the pitch knows what's going to happen in the next second, and that's the beauty of competitive sports." Ruby shot back.
"Okay, then we'll see." West shrugged.
The suspension ends.
The Warriors only made partial adjustments, with Green and Clay back on the court and Stephen still resting off the court, and it seemed that Kerr was still happy with their bench performance and wanted them to be a little longer.
The Knicks' adjustment is somewhat unexpected, only Lin Feng and Chris are among the main players, and Jones, Cook and Podolski are still off the court.
"What is Fils up to? The team is already 12 points behind, and most of the main players are still off the court? West said dismissively.
Seeing the Knicks' lineup, Ruby also frowned, Phils had never lined up such a lineup in previous games, but soon Ruby's frowning brow relaxed.
"I may know the intentions of Coach Phils, he discharged this lineup to give Lin Feng unlimited firing rights, Chris is the rebounding king of the Knicks, Phils also replaced Podolski with substitute center Kison, Kisson's characteristic is that he can grab rebounds, obviously, Chris and Kieson were both sent by Phils to grab rebounds for Lin Feng, haha, if that's the case, the next game will look good." Ruby laughed excitedly, because, if his guess was right, what would be Lin Feng's personal "offensive show" next!
"Inexplicably, if it's really as you said, Fils just wants to use Lin Feng himself against the entire Warriors, it's really overwhelming!" West was still full of disdain.
Stadium.
Lin Feng squatted on the sidelines and tightened his shoelaces, then got up and looked at the scoreboard.
Just like Ruby guessed, Fils discharged this lineup to let Lin Feng attack, in the past, whenever Lin Feng turned on the offensive mode, Jones, Cook and others could only do switchback and run on the court, consuming physical strength in vain.
Therefore, today Fils discharged Lin Feng with two rebounding maniacs plus soy sauce substitute lineup, which can be regarded as a gamble, Fils put all the bets on Lin Feng, betting that he can recover the score, or not let the score continue to pull away, and when Lin Feng's wave of offense is over, he will enter the rotation lineup again, and Fils can send Jones, Cook, Podolski and other main forces, so that in the confrontation of the rotation lineup, the Knicks will not suffer too much.
The game continues.
Lin Feng held the ball and quickly advanced through the half.
Iguodala pushed in front of Lin Feng, at present, the Warriors have not adopted a package defense against Lin Feng, because Warriors head coach Kerr wants to play against the Knicks, so he doesn't want to spend too much player's energy on defense.
In fact, Kerr's strategy is understandable, after all, the Warriors were the sharpest offensive team in the league during the regular season, averaging 117.5 points per game, which might have improved if they hadn't played the first three quarters regularly.
It is precisely because of such a sharp offense that Kerr has the confidence to fight with the Knicks on offense, and so far, no team in the offense-to-offense league has been able to win against the Warriors.
Facing only one defender, compared to the fierce battle between the East Final and the Bulls, Lin Feng couldn't be more relaxed.
Rub!
Almost without warning, Lin Feng kicked hard with his right foot, jumped up, and hit a three-point shot against Iguodala's defense.
"Megalomaniacal guy!" Iguodala yelled as she struggled to block.
However.
Lin Feng's bounce was amazing, he used bounce to make up for the height gap between the two, and the basketball flew past Iguodala's fingertips and went straight to the basket.
Swish!
The Nets flipped up.
Hit.
Lin Feng hit a three-pointer as soon as he came out.
51:42!
The Knicks are still nine points behind.
After hitting this three-point shot, Lin Feng licked his lips, and then retreated.
Iguodala looked frustrated, he had obviously tried his best to block, but he still couldn't stop Lin Feng's goal.
The Warriors attacked, Green took the ball and organized near the free throw line, and just as he was observing the passing route, Chris reached out with a palm and pulled the basketball off his hand.
Lin Feng picked up the basketball on the ground, quickly rushed to the Warriors' halfcourt, and then, stepping on the center circle line, he shot his trademark ultra-long-distance three-pointer again.
"Oh buy karma!"
"This guy is crazy!"
"He thought he was Stephen!"
The home fans exclaimed, this scene is all too familiar to them, and it is the way Stephen is used to scoring.
Swish!
In the midst of the doubts of the home fans, the basketball hit steadily.
Lin Feng's three points made the score close again.
51:45!
The Knicks are only 6 points behind!
There was a few tenths of a second of silence in the Oracle Arena.
Lin Feng's scoring method of "using the other way and giving back to the other" was really unacceptable to them.
