Jin Feng's two consecutive attacks on the inside line made it very difficult for the Cavaliers' defense, originally they only needed to take care of Randle and George Hill's basket offense, and Jin Feng's two consecutive points made them have to divide their minds to guard against Jin Feng's impact.
But obviously, the Cavaliers don't have that much energy to take care of a few offensive points, and when they make sure they do that, it means that their defense will be leaky, and for the Kings, the most they want to see is the Cavaliers expose their defensive holes.
George Hill broke through and rushed inside and was stopped by the Cavaliers' defense, and the ball was passed to Randle in the low post.
But then, the ball was back in George Hill's hands, and Randle also mentioned high post to block the pick-and-roll.
Just when the Cavaliers' players were attracted to the defensive attention by the two, Jin Feng suddenly cut to the basket at this time and received a pass from George Hill.
Hardly any hesitation, the Cavaliers quickly contracted the defense, and then they found that Jin Feng passed the ball at this time, and the outside line was Trevor Ariza.
"Huh!" Three-point hit.
Ariza was also very hot from outside the three-point line today, and he didn't miss an open three-point opportunity and hit another three-pointer. This three-pointer also further widened the gap between the two sides to 7 points.
The Cavaliers attacked, and it was James who held the ball, but at this time he was holding the ball in the low post.
James has a strong body, but to be honest, his back play skills are not too good, under normal circumstances, he can use his impact to complete the attack head-on, so he does not often play back, many times if it is not too close to the basket, you can have the opportunity to turn around and put the basket directly, he holds the ball and plays back more to organize the offense.
For example, at this time, because there was still some distance from the three-second zone, although James had his back against Jin Feng, he had no intention of attacking by himself.
Jin Feng, who was stuck behind James, had fought with James on the field before, so he naturally knew some of James' habits, James did not squeeze at this time, and his head turned slightly to the left side, obviously to see if there were any teammates who cut in from the line.
Seeing this, Jin Feng's body center of gravity shifted slightly to the left, and he guessed that it was very likely that a knight player would cut in from the middle. Of course, the arm around James' waist didn't move at all, and he didn't want James to be wary.
James really didn't notice that Jin Feng behind him was already preparing to cut off his pass at this time, turned his head sideways, looked at the middle with his peripheral vision, and after finding a teammate's figure cutting into the basket, he immediately threw the ball backwards, trying to send the ball to his teammate's hands with a ground pass.
"It's now!"
After seeing the movement in James's hand, Jin Feng immediately realized that James was about to pass the ball, and without any hesitation, Jin Feng rushed out directly from behind James!
The basketball was thrown out by James, and before it could fall to the floor, Jin Feng's big hand had already been clicked in it, and then, Jin Feng directly picked up the basketball that fell to the floor and made a steal!
After feeling the arm on his waist disappear, James realized that something was wrong, and quickly turned around, and he saw that Jin Feng had picked up the ball in his hand.
"Damn, how did this guy know I was going to pass?"
Thinking in his heart, James was going to stick directly to Jin Feng, trying to prevent the king from launching a fast attack.
However, James's movements were still a step slower, and after getting the ball, he pushed forward, and Jin Feng had already sent the ball to George Hill's hands.
The Kings finally launched a fast break, and while the Cavaliers' defense was not fully in place, George Hill rushed to the front court with the ball and made a layup.
At 70:59, with George Hill's shot, the difference between the two teams came directly to 11 points.
The situation on the court disrupted the Cavaliers' deployment, and head coach Tyronn Lue had to call a timeout to stabilize the situation on the court.
Both teams that returned to the court made personnel changes, with Randle, Kouvers and George Hill on the Kings side coming off the court and replacing Fox, Willie Cauleystein and Myers, while on the other side the Cavaliers had Clarkson off the court and replaced J.R. Smith.
Hood took the serve, and the ball was quickly handed back into James' hands, and Jin Feng defended James head-on again.
After a few matchups, James also knew that Jin Feng's defense was not easy to deal with, so he did not directly challenge Jin Feng's defense, James signaled Lefu to step forward to block and dismantle, and then began to break through with the help of blocking and dismantling.
Jin Feng still followed the previous defensive strategy, shrunk to the rear defense early, and when James rushed in, he quickly went up to defend.
But obviously, James didn't want Jin Feng to stop him so easily, the two slammed into each other, and then James used his advantage in strength to press Jin Feng to force the basket.
Behind Jin Feng's side, Miles helped defend at the first time, and the ball in James's hand quickly transferred and passed back to Lefu outside the three-point line.
The ball was handed to Love, and Miles immediately rushed to the outside to get back to the defense.
"Shh
Amid a boo from the audience, Love shook Miles away with a feint of shooting, followed by a dribble that pressed Myers to his side and rushed to the three-point line to the basket.
Jin Feng followed James back to the basket, his eyes were on James, and on the other hand, he was staring at Lefou.
Jin Feng didn't step forward to help stop Lefu at the first time, because as long as he moved his steps to block, Lefu could throw the ball up, allowing James to easily complete the air relay.
However, Jin Feng couldn't just watch it like this, and let Lefu suppress Miles to complete the layup.
Jin Feng was waiting, waiting for James to take the initiative to withdraw from the basket and open up space for Lefu to break through.
In fact, it was said that he was waiting, that is, in the blink of an eye, seeing Lefu rush across the free throw line, James immediately pulled outside, to bring Jin Feng out of the three-second zone and create offensive space for Lefu.
It was at this moment that Jin Feng was waiting, when James moved his steps outward, Jin Feng quickly moved his steps in the opposite direction and flashed to the middle to assist in the defense.
At this time, it was too late for James to return to the basket, because Love had already rushed into the three-second zone, and the space was too small to pass the ball.
And when Lefu saw that Jin Feng's position was not directly in front of him, he didn't dodge or dodge, and rushed over directly.
Lefu decided that Jin Feng didn't dare to move his steps at this time, because as long as he moved one more step, the two collided head-on, and Jin Feng was a defensive foul.
It is true that Jin Feng has no time to block Lefu at this time, but the fact that his feet can't move doesn't mean that his hands can't move.
Seeing that Lefu was about to rush past Jin Feng, Jin Feng suddenly poked his arm out and cut down towards the basketball that Lefu had just picked up and was about to hold high!
"Smack!"
Jin Feng's lightning-fast shot hit the basketball accurately, Lefu continued to rush forward and prepare to jump, and the basketball in his hand fell directly to the floor!
"Steal, no foul, Jin Feng steals the knight again!"
Yu Jia, who was commentating, was shouting, and the Kings fans on the sidelines were cheering at this time.
In the first round after the timeout, the Cavaliers' offense played together, and it looked like it was about to succeed, but now it turned out to be ...... Snatched again?
The picture on the field quickly told them that this was not an illusion, because the ball had already fallen into Jin Feng's hands at this time.
Complete the steal, James, the opposing player, is not by his side, what Jin Feng has to do is very simple, counterattack!
With the ball, Jin Feng quickly ran to the other half.
On the sidelines, Kings head coach Jason Kidd stood up and watched the counterattack on the court with anticipation, only this one goal was needed, and the difference would be more than 13 points, which means that the Cavaliers' previous timeout was completely invalid, and the Kings' double-digit lead will be completely consolidated!
Jin Feng rushed forward with the ball, and after coming to the three-point line, he found James standing in front of him, this time, Jin Feng did not try to break through James's defense directly, but passed the ball to Fox's hands.
The Kings have played too many of these combinations this season, and he knows exactly how to handle that offense.
Passing the ball out, Jin Feng shook slightly in front of James, making a feint to run to the right, and the next moment, Jin Feng rushed into the three-point line from the left.
As Jin Feng expected, the ball in Fox's hand also passed back at this time.
After receiving the ball, he dribbled and took a step forward, Jin Feng stuck James behind him, and then picked up the ball and rushed into the three-second zone.
After picking up the ball, he took a step forward, glanced at Hood who was defending in front of him, and Jin Feng took the second step to the left front and flashed to Hood's side.
Jumping, grabbing the ball with his left hand and picking it lightly, Jin Feng made a layup!
At this time, although James, who was good at chasing hats, followed behind, he was first pressed behind by Jin Feng, and then there was the interference of Hood's position, coupled with the consumption of his own physical strength, James was completely unable to block, and could only watch Jin Feng go to the basket.
The ball hits the rebound, bounces into the basket, and hits!
"Good shot, Jin Feng made a counterattack and layup after a steal, Jin Feng completed a steal for two consecutive rounds and helped the team fight back, and the king's lead stretched to 13 points!"
Yu Jia, who is commentating, is shouting! In the field, Jin Feng also high-fived Fox when he retreated, and on the sidelines, although Jason Kidd did not have any expression on his face, he was very satisfied.
The double-digit advantage has really been consolidated, and as long as your team can stabilize in the middle of the court at the end of the third quarter, and let the double-digit advantage enter the fourth quarter, the balance of victory will be tilted in favor of the king!
With the end of the third quarter, the score between the two teams was fixed at 73:63, and as Jason Kidd had hoped, the Kings maintained a double-digit lead heading into the fourth quarter.
Jason Kidd is undoubtedly very satisfied with this situation, and with the Cavaliers' offensive state that is not outstanding today, as long as the Kings don't make big mistakes in the fourth quarter, they are very likely to pick the fruits of victory and go to the next game
Chase points, pull away, chase points, pull away again......
After the start of the fourth quarter, this scene was repeated on the court, the Cavaliers launched a fierce attack, and the Kings, who had a 10-point advantage, played steadily.
So the difference was forced to close again and again, and then it was pulled away again, and a chase battle was staged on the field.
In the last 7 seconds of the game, Jin Feng's magical 2+1 after losing his balance kept the King's lead at 6 points and made the game lose suspense.
At 95:89, the game was over, and the Kings, who were playing at home, won the game.
In the fourth quarter, the game was under the control of Jason Kidd, and although the Cavaliers narrowed the gap to just three points at one point, the Kings ultimately held on to the victory.
The Cavaliers are not in particularly good shape for the whole team today, James got 18 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, but he made 6 turnovers, well, this is to blame Jin Feng.
Clarkson's performance was also average, scoring only 17 points, in addition, Love scored 13 points, Hood scored 12 points, and the team not only had 4 players score in double figures, but also none of them scored 20.
Of course, this also shows how good the Kings are on the defensive end of this game.
On the Kings' side, the top scorer was Fox with 27 points and six assists. The best performance is Randle, in the face of the Cavaliers' slightly weak interior, Randle did give the opponent a lot of damage in this game, Randle got 18 points, 14 rebounds and 9 assists in the whole game with a quasi-triple-double data, once again interpreting his comprehensiveness, while also 1 block and 1 steal.
Although the Kings' overall scoring is not too high, because the scoring is relatively average, there are 5 double-doubles, in addition to Randle and Fox, Ariza, Jackson, and Jin Feng all scored in double digits.
21 points, 6 rebounds, 4 steals and 3 assists, this is the data that Jin Feng handed over in this game, whether it is on the offensive end or on the defensive end, his presence is full, and everyone understands that Jin Feng, as the absolute core of this king, plays a role in many times more than the total data can be withdrawn.
Jin Feng's performance naturally made the two Chinese commentators who commented on the scene full of praise.
"Jin Feng's performance today is really as good as ever! Although he didn't score the highest score of the game, his play was at the level of pants on both offensive and defensive ends, and he scored 21 points in this game, and he is still continuing to average 20+ points per game in the new season" After reporting the data of the two teams, the two sighed.
This is not the first time Jin Feng has faced James, but his performance is getting better and better, and his performance in several opposing defenses is remarkable, including Jin Feng's 4 steals, 3 of which are steals James. Although James is the peak tail today, it can still be seen from this that Jin Feng's personal ability is now available."
"Yes, in the process of confrontation between him and James at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, which we are all paying attention to, we can see that Jin Feng's performance is no worse than James, and he even has to suppress James steadily."
