Chapter 371: What a Leader Should Do

After Andre Miller received the ball, he handed over a long pass to Gu Fei who rushed in front almost the same as that attack. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Seeing such a scene, Carlisle on the sidelines immediately yelled, "Go up, watch him, watch him"

Stevenson also wanted to press Gu Fei step by step, but it was obvious that his degree could not be compared with Gu Fei, so he could only do his best to chase Chen Hao, and Caron Butler, who was the fastest to return to the halfcourt, pressed up from inside the three-point line, attacking one after the other, trying to force Gu Fei near the midfield.

On the other side, JR also ran to the front court as fast as the time he completed the air relay.

"Caron, keep an eye on him" Nowitzki, who was behind him, shouted at Butler, he definitely couldn't catch up with JR, but Butler had this possibility, Novitsky simply ran towards Gu Fei by himself.

Butler immediately changed direction and pursued Chandler.

Without Butler chasing from the front, only Nowitzki and Stevenson behind him undoubtedly had a lot less pressure on Gu Fei, and one changed back away from Nowitzki, although Stevenson behind him was able to get closer to him, Gu Fei didn't care and rushed directly to the three-point line.

Butler nervous with a passing motion with both hands, while Stevenson behind him breathed a sigh of relief that it wasn't his responsibility, and couldn't help but slow down.

Who knew that Gu Fei's passing was just a feint, and when he took back the ball, Gu Fei immediately jumped up and watched the basket throw the ball.

The basketball smashed into the basket cleanly.

"Didn't you eat? If you don't want to play, give me down," Carlisle can tolerate Gu Fei and blow up Stevenson's defense, but he can't tolerate Stevenson's attitude of not doing his best on the court.

Stevenson had a cold face, he didn't want to be replaced so soon, but on the defensive end he continued his powerlessness, height disadvantage and strength disadvantage, so he had to often need Butler's supplement, and the result of Butler's defense was to let JR, a guy who is good at cutting without the ball, get a good shot.

And once Butler defends Gu Fei, Stevenson has to face Jr's power and speed, Carlisle tragically finds himself sending Stevenson is a complete tragedy, substitutions are what Carlisle wants to do the most, but before that he wants to ask for a timeout to rearrange.

"Carlisle can't sit still, and it turns out that sending Stevenson was the wrong decision, does he want a player like Sean to sit on the bench and watch the game? Sean plus Caron's defense is definitely comparable to the Clippers' J.R. Garohn" Hoffman questioned Carlisle's set-up.

"Stevenson, you come down and rest" Carlisle didn't care about Stevenson's embarrassed face, turned to Marion and said, "Sean, you play, I need you to keep an eye on that guy, it's really not okay for you and Caron to cooperate with the two, try to be alone, once you are thrown off the other into the defense, immediately go to help defend, and if you are thrown off, immediately change the defense, don't leak, Drew, you replace Eric, the team needs your offense and interior impact......"

Mike Dunleavy obviously also guessed Carlisle's next arrangement, "Gu, if nothing else, they will send Sean Marion, his defensive strength, you should know not to be careless, pay attention to the reasonable distribution of the ball" Dunleavy took special care, and then began a simple arrangement.

"Yes, Carlisle replaced Sean, Sean's defense is a big help for Dallas, they continue the defense brought by Sean, and the forward defensive line formed by Sean and Caron is undoubtedly at the forefront of the league, how will Gu face such a defense?" Bill Wharton looked at Gu Fei on the field with some expectation

After a timeout, the Mavericks' offense quickly turned on, but with the Clippers' defensive struggling to shoot the iron, Drew Gooden jumped up and took the defensive rebound down steadily, and immediately passed it to Jason Kidd

Kidd seemed to be rejuvenated, quickly pushing forward, Tyson Chandler and Rasheed Wallace did not have time to get into position, Andre Miller caught up with Kidd behind him, but at this moment Kidd's aftermath glanced at Marion who ran to the three-point line.

"Sean" Kidd yelled at Marion, and just after halftime, he pushed the ball to the basket with both hands.

"Not good," Gu Fei secretly screamed.

But he was still a long way from Marion, and he couldn't come forward to defend at all, so he could only watch Marion soar.

"Bang"

The Clippers' basket was heavily dunked by Marion's hands

"This is Sean, the Sean of Phoenix, Sean got his hacking back in with Jason's help," Hoffman said as he watched the replay on the big screen.

However, the mentality of the Clippers up and down still seemed to be very stable, and Andre Miller dribbled steadily through the halfcourt, and Gao Yang gave his thumbs up to indicate the fast movement of his teammates.

JR and Gu Fei immediately started running, constantly tugging at the Mavericks' defense, trying to find an open space.

However, the Mavericks' defense doesn't seem to change at all, still using a joint defense, with Gooden and Nowitzki guarding the interior in the middle, Butler and Marion guarding two 45 degrees, and Kidd at the top of the arc.

When Gu Fei received Miller's pass, Marion caught up as soon as possible.

Sean Marion's long arm span covered Gu Fei tightly, this is not the first time Gu Fei has faced Marion, but the Marion he faced is not at his peak, Gu Fei can't imagine how terrifying Marion's defense was at his peak, but now Gu Fei deeply feels the confidence exuded by Marion.

Butler and Marion's perfect switch defused Tyson Chandler and Rasheed Wallace into back-to-back pick-and-rolls.

Seeing that the 24-second attack time was about to come, Gu Fei gritted his teeth, and after a shake, he immediately forcibly rushed to Marion's right side, and suddenly retreated and jumped out, but Marion's long arm still interfered with Gu Fei's vision.

Gu Fei felt terrible the moment he shot, and in the end, Gu Fei's ball smashed into the front of the basket and bounced out, and Nowitzki jumped up and took off the defensive rebound.

After Gu Fei glanced at Marion, he turned around and ran towards the backfield.

The game continued, Marion and Butler's defense brought great pressure to the Clippers, and Sean Marion, who has long arms and a keen sense of defense, plus Butler's assistance defense brought a lot of pressure to Gu Fei, and Carlisle's defensive layout was very targeted, that is, other players could be released to intercept Gu Fei as soon as possible, no matter how Gu Fei ran, the Mavericks did not relax, just like five people tied up a big pocket, which made Gu Fei feel extremely uncomfortable.

Although the strength of the Clippers is very strong, there is no doubt about the role of Gu Fei, once Gu Fei is frozen, it is equivalent to freezing half of the strength of the Clippers. Dunleavy was considering whether to replace Gu Fei, or replace Atai to let Gu Fei organize the position of defender.

Gu Fei held the ball in both hands, and his shoulders swayed, feeling a firm defensive belief coming from Marion behind him.

With his right foot as the axis, Gu Fei suddenly pulled his right hand to the right and turned around, raising the ball with both hands to make a prelude to shooting.

Generally speaking, he had already jumped up, but Marion did not jump easily, but took another step forward when Gu Fei turned around, further squeezing Gu Fei's space.

Seeing that the feint was ineffective, Gu Fei slapped the ball with his left hand, bowed his body, and forcibly leaned on Marion to squeeze inside.

Marion looks thin and weak, and his strength is indeed inferior to Gu Fei, but years of hard work in the power forward position have given him his own way to defend the strength player, taking a small step back, but his left hand is still against Gu Fei's waist, and his right hand is still held high in front of Gu Fei, and his feet are slightly staggered back and forth.

Marion's defense was unusually in place, which greatly stimulated Gu Fei's competitive spirit, and after forcibly turning around one and a half, he withdrew with his left foot, and the basketball passed through the crotch to the left hand and right foot and withdrew, and the whole jump was in the air, with his body obviously leaning back.

Marion was obviously unwilling to give up easily, let out a low roar, stepped forward with his right foot, jumped up with all his might, and reached out to interfere with Gu Fei's vision, although Marion's bounce was not as good as at his peak, but it was still very good.

The long arm is Marion's best weapon, watching Marion's right hand getting closer and closer to him, Gu Fei gritted his teeth and leaned back by a large margin, almost forty-five degrees from the floor, watching the basket slowly reappear in front of him, Gu Fei threw the ball with firm confidence.

The Clippers fans in the stadium couldn't bear to celebrate, they believed that Gu Fei could throw the ball in.

"Bang"

The basketball smashed on the inside and bounced, rolling around the basket again and again, Gu Fei's eyes showed a trace of disbelief, he thought he could score, but the basketball finally fell off after two turns on the basket.

Gooden grabbed the defensive rebound again, and Gu Fei immediately packed up his mentality and ran to the backcourt quickly.

"Gu is in trouble, obviously he needs to readjust himself, maybe it's a good idea to go down and take a break" Hoffman's suggestion was a good one.

Mike Dunleavy was also ready to replace Gu Fei, but when he saw that Gu Fei was still running back and forth on the court as always, and defending at any cost, Dunleavy chose to let Gu Fei continue to stay on the court.

Maybe everyone felt that Gu Fei was a little stuck in self-obsession, but Dunleavy knew that Gu Fei was still sane at the moment.

When the game came to the first quarter with two minutes left, the Clippers chose to switch in, but still retained Gu Fei, Gu Fei came to the position of playmaking guard, obviously Dunleavy hoped that Gu Fei would use his ball-holding power to let his teammates get more opportunities.

Gu Fei took the ball directly from the backcourt into the half, Marion came up again, did not press directly, but moved forward and retreated little by little as Gu Fei retreated, until he retreated to the three-point line, and Marion stopped.

Gu Fei glanced at it, waited for his teammates to settle down, and looked at Sean Marion again, who had brought him huge defensive pressure in the past few minutes.

Not only did the team fail to score in the past few minutes, but even the touch of his teammates seemed to disappear into the Mavericks' defense.

"I have to score," Gu Fei roared inwardly.

As the leader of the team, he has to step up when the team is in a scoring drought, and that's what he has to do.

Gu Fei slowly bowed down, protected the ball with his right hand, and made a gesture with his left hand to signal that he wanted to play the ball alone. (To be continued.) )
