204 Helpless!
In the game with the Lakers, Leonard was absent, Simmons was mentioned to start, and Jin Feng was also mentioned to start. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
In this game, Popovich directly let Jin Feng start instead of Danny Green, which was also a surprise for Jin Feng.
After all, he hasn't had the luxury of starting again this season since he spoke to Ginobili last time...
But, now, who knows which old man is more tenacious and wrong? However, whatever, since he let the starters, then start!
Maybe it was because they didn't want to be swept, but at the beginning of the game, the Lakers, who were playing at home, quickly entered the state, Russell and Nick Young hit three-pointers in a row, and in just over 3 minutes of the opening game, they beat the Spurs 13:0!
The old man's temper has been much better recently, although the game was beaten 13:0 at the beginning, but the old man seemed to turn a blind eye, sat on the bench, and did not react.
Of course, maybe it has something to do with what he's trying!
As a team with extremely high tactical literacy, the Spurs' on-the-spot adaptability is absolutely top-notch, and after being beaten 13-0 in an instant, the Spurs players on the field did not panic.
But under the command of the "old sports car" Parker, he also launched a counterattack in an orderly manner.
Simmons, who replaced Leonard, officially kicked off the Spurs' counterattack with a breakthrough dunk.
After Simmons scored a dunk, the Spurs suddenly increased their defensive intensity on the defensive end, which caught the Lakers off guard, and the quick-eyed Jin Feng directly stole Russell's dribble.
Counterattack fast break dragon, break through to the layup!
Then, in the next few consecutive rounds, the Lakers failed to shoot, and on the Spurs' side, Aldridge, who has never shot three-pointers, also hit a three-pointer at the top of the arc.
In less than 3 minutes, the Spurs beat the Lakers 12:3, closing the difference to 4′, which can be said to be a strong team!
After the official timeout in the first quarter, on the Spurs' side, Jin Feng continued to play with the second lineup, while on the Lakers' side, due to the departure of the team's scoring champion, former best sixth man Louis Williams, the players on their bench who could stand up and score were even more stretched.
Since the beginning of this season, Ingram, known as "Little Durant", has performed really averagely, and he is hardly seen in the top 10 of the rookie list.
Luke Wharton obviously knew Ingram's situation, so he didn't let Ingram play with the second lineup, but chose to let Clarkson play with the second team.
It's not that he doesn't want to believe Ingram, it's really the peculiarity of this game, and if the Lakers don't want to be swept by the Spurs this season, then this game, he must be more careful in terms of lineup.
Leonard, the star of the Spurs side of the game, did not play, which made Luke Wharton see the hope of winning, although he knew that the hope of winning was not very big, but at least it was a little better than Leonard's appearance!
So far in the first quarter, the Lakers have a four-point lead, which is at least good news for Luke Walton!
Luke Wharton's idea was good, and there was nothing wrong with arranging the troops, however, he made a mistake by ignoring the threatening nature of the Chinese Jin.
In other words, he did not ignore the danger of China's Jin, but he underestimated the current China's Jin.
The All-Star Weekend won the championship twice, which invisibly raised Jin Feng's self-confidence to a new height, and this new height of self-confidence obviously played a huge role for Jin Feng in the game.
Let's put it this way, according to what Popovich told Jin Feng before, all the teams that play in the NBA are divided into these categories, superstar players, superstar players, all-star players, star players, role players, and water cooler players.
Jin Feng was a top role player before "Nirvana Rebirth", and he was a star player after completing "Nirvana Rebirth".
If Jin Feng before the All-Star Game was a junior star player, then the current Jin Feng is at least an intermediate star player.
You know, after the intermediate star player, there is the top star player, which is often referred to as the "quasi-all-star player"!
Luke Wharton obviously didn't take this into account, in fact, this can't be blamed only on Luke Wharton, on the one hand, after the All-Star weekend, that is, for a week, Jin Feng hardly played much (before he only played 21 minutes off the bench when playing the Clippers), on the other hand, it can only be said that Jin Feng is too demonic, and the growth rate is shocking.
…………
Luke Walton is the head coach of the Lakers, and he is the team's lineup, so if he makes a mistake, he will naturally be punished, and this punishment is obviously inevitable.
After only about 3 minutes of Jin Feng playing with the Spurs' second lineup, Luke Wharton called a timeout very quickly.
Because at this time, the score on the court was 23:19, and the leading side was the Spurs, not the Lakers, that is, in just about 3 minutes, the second team of the Spurs played the second team of the Lakers 11:3!
In about 3 minutes, the Spurs scored a total of 11 points, and Jin Feng alone occupied 6 points.
After the game continued, he first assisted Mills to break through to the layup, and then hit two three-pointers in a row, instantly beating the Lakers 8:0! Directly overtook the score!
And so far in the first quarter of the game, Jin Feng has scored 10 points, and under normal circumstances, only the star can score a double-double when the game has not been played in a single quarter.
So, Luke Wharton did make a mistake!
After the Lakers' requested timeout ended, Popovich chose to rest Jin Feng.
In the end, the first quarter ended, 32:25, and the Spurs led by 7 points.
For the Lakers, the situation is not so good without fighting for the opening advantage.
The departure of former leading scorer Louis Williams, though in theory, liberated Ingram.
However, judging by the situation at the end of the first half, Ingram did not perform very well!
In the second quarter of the game, Luke Wharton gave Ingram a total of more than 8 minutes of playing time, but Ingram only scored 5 points on 2-of-9 shooting.
To a certain extent, the Lakers were extended to 16 points by the Spurs in the second quarter, which had something to do with Ingram's poor play.
At the end of the first half, 63:47, the Spurs led the Lakers by 16 points, and Jin Feng scored a total of 15 points in the first half!
In the end, the Spurs defeated the Lakers 120-101 without much suspense on the road!
Jin Feng played a total of 28 minutes in the whole game, 9 of 17 shots, 4 of 5 3-point shots, and a total of 26 minutes.
After the game, the media also summed up such a rule for Jin Feng, that is, China's Jin will be energetic when he hits the Lakers!
As we all know, in the historical grievances between the Spurs and the Lakers, there was once such a player, which is very similar to the law of Jin Feng today.
That person is the "Black Mamba" Kobe Bryant, Kobe Bryant has always been strong when he played the Spurs in his career!
Popovich once said of Kobe: My tactics work for any player in the league, but not Kobe!
Could it be that China's Jin wants to take the road of Kobe? Anyway, judging from this game, Luke Walton is helpless against him, and the Lakers are helpless against him.........
