Chapter 524: Looking for a reason to fight
Then the Raptors began to defend very wildly!
For the first time this season, the 76ers truly experienced what despair is.
None of them were so desperate when they played the Warriors. The Raptors scored on the basis of good defense.
The Warriors are three-pointers, but they still have a lot of holes in their defensive savagery.
And the Raptors are like an unassailable team!
The players on the Philadelphia side are getting more and more unconfident......
This is another traditional powerhouse in the East from last season!
When DeRozan wasn't going to the Spurs, it was a good team.
When kawaii came to this team, the Raptors' luck and ability in all aspects seemed to be rushing to the peak of ability among the Eastern teams!
Now here in the center, without Marc Gasol, Ibaka's defense is also very fierce!
Siakam and Leonard can play at the same time and rotate with each other!
Lowry's defensive ability is also good, and Jeremy Lin, who now has good organizational skills, has joined the Raptors.
Some media commented that the Raptors are more interesting, that is, this team looks like a tiger, but they have not just added a pair of wings this season.
It could be two or four pairs of wings!
It's a tiger with four wings or even more!
And when a large number of stars are running to a team, this team is likely to become the super team of the season!
The 76ers began to lose points, and Li Feng had more moments to shoot by himself today, but the second half of the first quarter was basically just passing.
The more Li Feng passed, the darker his face became...... Because his teammates were defended by the Raptors today!
His 18 assists are ah......
Li Feng discovered that the task challenges in [Strange Land] are much more difficult than the game tasks given last season......
In the past, Li Feng was asked to get 20 assists in a single game, but he could do it by gritting his teeth anyway.
But now this task is a bit excessive. If he wants to play 3 games in a row, he has to get 18 assists in each game!
But the rewards here in [Strange Land] are very attractive!
The reward for the first level is to permanently increase Li Feng's shooting accuracy by 5%!
You must know that Li Feng can rely on scavenging skill packs in the system everywhere in the past few seasons in order to maintain him until the end!
What Li Feng is most worried about is his shortcomings, that is, his initial combat strength!
His current combat strength is just a relatively good blue-collar scoring guard.
This is still the ability he has gradually acquired since he started training frantically three years ago!
Because of Li Feng's average data accumulated in recent years, his popularity, and the impression he made on the players of other teams in the game, he was able to continue to get okay data in the game.
When Li Feng created the illusion that he had a strong point guard, the other players did acquiesce to such a "fact" in their hearts.
......
29:16! In the sky above the airline center gymnasium, Raptors fans were frantically shouting for their team.
The 76ers scored just 16 points toward the end of the first quarter.
Leonard interrupted the basketball directly in Bayless' hand and then rushed straight to the frontcourt.
He's fast and his control of power is excellent!
Then under the unguarded, Xiaoka jumped directly and hit a three-point hollow shot! 32:16!
The Raptors scored twice as much as the 76ers at this point!
Li Feng had no choice, after receiving Bayless's pass, he saw that his teammates couldn't shoot just now, so he could only attack by himself.
In the end, under the bag of Siakam and Jeremy Lin, Li Feng still scored three points!
In the last 10 seconds or so, the Raptors threw the ball directly to Kawaii, who hit another three-point shot in the half!
Then there was no shooting from the Philadelphia side.
The first quarter of the game ended with 35:19!
Brown hesitated in the second quarter of the game, and it stands to reason that Li Feng should not be replaced in this situation.
But if they want to play the Raptors, they will have to think about the second half.
In the end, Coach Brown replaced Embiid and Li Feng and let the rest of the players play against the Raptors.
The first half ended, 73:36......
Coach Brown was ready to lose the game directly at the end of the second quarter.
They 76ers should also lose a few games.
They don't have the strength to have the best win rate in that league.
After a long time, it is natural that they will return to the level of their strength.
How did the team that finished at the bottom of the league last season suddenly have the first win percentage in the league?
The element of luck accounts for a lot, and the rest is the strength of Li Feng, a player, who is supporting the team.
Now the strength and player lineup of its own 76ers team are not comparable to the Raptors.
And Philadelphia has been winning, so naturally the Raptors will play you with 100 percent strength in today's game.
So now that they are so far behind, it's not hard to understand.
Back in the locker room, the players on Li Feng's side were much more relaxed.
Everyone was talking about how much data they could get in the second half.
Some simply said that they didn't want to fight.
Li Feng has nothing to say, his second level task in this game is basically in vain.
There was a short break in the locker room for more than 10 minutes.
His teammates relaxed, and even Embiid basically gave up the game.
It's not that the Raptors are a little better than the 76ers, but they are a lot better than the 76ers.
It's hard to defend on the offensive end, and the Raptors are almost completely neutralizing them on the defensive end.
At this point in the game, there is basically no need to play.
Back on the sidelines, Coach Brown began to set the assignments.
Brown: "Then McConnell will replace Li Feng." I was going to let Li Feng play the next game. But ......"
Li Feng: "Coach, I'd better stay on the field." What if? ”
Brown: "Li Feng, you saw it too. We're basically out of action in this game. It's better to ......."
Li Feng: "It's better to see how far we can fight." ”
Brown: "......"
Li Feng: "Coach, that's what I think. The team didn't have a smooth sailing in every game during the regular season, even when I was with the Warriors.
If there is a tailwind, there will be a headwind. We can't say that the downwind game is cool, and when it comes to the headwind game, we won't play. ”
Brown: "You guys, you mean ......"
Li Feng: "I want to continue to return to the field, just to feel how far our team can play in the end under the big headwind.
It's not terrible to fall behind by a big score now, but it's terrible that in the playoffs, we were swept by the opponent 4:0. ”
Brown: "Okay! Then it's up to you, Li Feng! McConnell continued to go back to rest. That one...... Baylors and Li Feng, the two of you cooperate with each other and organize the game. ”
Li Feng's words, Coach Brown listened to goosebumps are about to rise!
What kind of player is this?! The annual salary of 23 million US dollars is given to Li Feng, which is worth it!!
In previous seasons, not a single player could say anything like that in front of him Brown!
The team has come to this point after a few seasons of muddy.
And this season, since Li Feng came to the team!
The whole look of the 76ers has changed! The team is starting to get alive! Start fighting each other to win a game and fight to the end!
According to Li Feng's idea, if this game is defeated, it will inevitably affect the morale of the team in the next game.
This possibility accounts for about 50% each, but if Li Feng takes this game seriously, the possibility of the team being discouraged in the next game will be reduced.
So Li Feng still has to fight to the end in this game!
It didn't take long for the Raptors' players to arrive on the scene, and their lineup was Jonas, Ibaka, Leonard, Jeremy Lin and Green!
In the two years he spent with the Nets, Jeremy Lin played okay, but it took him eight months to recuperate.
This is also different from Li Feng's memory in his previous life.
And Jamie Lin, who came to the Raptors, played even crazier!
And the Raptors also need a player like Jeremy Lin to play off the bench.
The lineup on the 76ers' side is Roport, Booker, Simmons, Li Feng and Bayless.
Originally, Coach Brown wanted to practice this section.
But seeing Li Feng's insistence, he still let him play.
At the beginning of the game, Green got the basketball and rushed to the frontcourt, where he was a former Spurs shooting guard.
At the same time, the defensive ability is outstanding.
Green: "I heard that you can always lead the team to overtake and win games when you are down by a big score? ”
Li Feng: "Who did you listen to?" ”
Green: "That's all it said, and I've watched a lot of these games."
Li Feng: "If you have the ability, let's see you in the playoffs!" ”
Green: "I don't mean anything else, Li Feng. Jeremy Lin often talks to me about you. Let's enjoy the game~"
Li Feng's mind was now all on the task of the second level, so he didn't think much about Green's words.
In the end, Ibaka got the ball and forced a layup at Booker to score!
Since this game is difficult to win, Li Feng will play casually.
When he arrived in the front court, he directly singled out Jeremy Lin and hit a three-point shot not long after!
Leonard immediately deducted points after half-time!
Then Bayles received a pass from Li Feng and immediately jumped up and hit a three-point shot!
Seeing that the 76ers were about to get up, the Raptors immediately calmed down.
Then Danny Green returned with a three-pointer!
Unusually, Li Feng didn't pass the ball as hard as he did in the first quarter.
He started to lead the team to attack together!
Brown saw that there was a timeout at this point, and then Embiid and Ilyasova came on!
It would be a pity if their team didn't play well enough in the third quarter because they didn't bring in a few main players.
The Raptors are still highly focused on defense and offense.
There's not much the 76ers can do to win today's game.
But Li Feng's spirit of still fighting with the Raptors to the end moved Coach Brown.
Then Ilyasova received the basketball, and the Raptors' defense was more delicate than the last game, and they were not angry.
It's just going to compete with you!
Ilyasova, who was about to shoot twice, finally chose to pass the ball to Embiid.
The latter directly found the opportunity to deduct points violently!
Compared to Jordan Jr. and Griffin's bag defense in the previous game, the Raptors' basket didn't seem to be too strong in this game.
Embiid struggled to find his scoring spot.
The 76ers value their team's under-the-basket defense, and some teams have done the same!
Jeremy Lin picked up the basketball at this time, and the fans at the scene gradually began to stand up to watch the game!
Many years ago, Jeremy Lin, who became popular overnight in New York at the time, directly killed their Toronto Raptors with a three-point shot!
And this year, Jeremy Lin chose to join the Raptors!
Kawaii received a pass from Lin shortly after, but the three-pointer was missed, and then Simmons immediately grabbed the rebound and rushed to the frontcourt.
Li Feng caught the ball not far away and jumped up to hit a three-point shot!
Danny Green's face immediately became much more serious.
Then Jeremy Lin received a pass, and after passing half court directly under the defense of Bayless, he hit a long-range 2-point hollow shot!
At this time in the game, only Embiid and Li Feng could score, and the rest of the points were blocked by the Raptors.
Simmons felt the fear of being suppressed by Leonard!
He didn't have any power to fight back in front of Xiaoka!
He's like the devil who suddenly appears next to you just as you're about to shoot.
Before you are surprised, the basketball in your hand is long gone.
Then Simmons defended Leonard, but was still passed by the opponent without warning, and then Jonas received a pass from Kawaii and scored a jumper!
With the Raptors constantly scoring, the 76ers will have to shoot three-pointers if they want to cut back the score.
After constant running, in the end, Bayless's Jeremy Lin scored a three-pointer!
After Lowry broke off in the third quarter, the Raptors' defensive intensity at the guard position still decreased.
Li Feng: "In the headwind game, if any of you can get good data, then you will score more and better points in the tailwind game!" ”
Seeing that his teammates around him were a little discouraged, Li Feng immediately opened his mouth to encourage him.
He thought that this should be the reason for the team to continue playing.
Although he was anxious about the second level of [Strange Place], what he said to the coach on the sidelines was true.
The regular season can't always be a tailwind, and when there is a headwind, it is a good opportunity for the team to practice.
And today's headwinds are truly unusual.
This is also why in the previous life, after Leonard came to the Raptors, the team directly won the championship.
Their lineup and strength are too strong!
Then Leonard's three-point shooting was still missing, and his three-point shooting percentage slipped in the first quarter.
Then Green got the basketball, and his three-pointer was ironed.
In the end, Simmons got the rebound again, and he finally chose to pass the ball to Ilyasova after half court.
The latter just crossed the three-point line and immediately got up to score 2 points from a distance!
Ibaka spoke to the manager on the sidelines and eventually said they didn't need to call a timeout.
And coach Kessie also followed Ibaka's advice.
Li Feng: "We will never be eliminated in the first round of the playoffs this season.
But it's likely that we'll meet the Raptors in the first round! So it's time to think about how you can defeat them! ”
Some of the teammates present pretended not to hear.
The rest looked at Li Feng with a look of surprise.
