As soon as the whistle blew, Tyson Chandler's eyes were fixed on the basketball thrown into the air, and before the basketball reached its highest point, Chandler jumped up and tossed the ball to Andre Miller with a huge advantage of half an arm beyond Nenne, and the 2008-2009 playoffs officially began.

The Nuggets players obviously didn't expect the Clippers' first wave of offense to come so quickly, and the Clippers' offense was organized just as the jump ball failed and was about to return to defense.

Just when Andre Miller received the ball from Chandler, Gu Fei, who was standing next to Deng Tai Jones, suddenly turned back, and the suddenness of the turn made Deng Tai Jones unable to cope, and when he reacted, Gu Fei had already rushed to the front court like a cheetah, and Miller did not stop the ball and directly pushed the ball to the front court.

The basketball landed right in front of Gu Fei, and he easily caught the ball and completed a one-handed dunk.

"Beautiful opening fast-break, the Clippers gave the Nuggets a downgame, and they were telling the Denver people that the Black Eight was a fantasy." Barkley said unceremoniously, apparently nothing could change his firm position.

Smack

Billups, who has a lot of playoff experience, clapped his hands and focused his teammates' attention, "Come on, this is the beginning, we can't afford to make a mistake like this again." ”

Billups took the ball and steadily advanced to the frontcourt, not rushing to attack but directing his teammates to stand.

Anthony, who had vowed to go all out to win before the game, had a fierce streak with Artest, and finally his ****** pushed Artest behind him, and immediately raised his right hand to ask Billups for the ball.

After receiving the ball, the ****** hit Artest twice, and Anthony, who was bowing down, opened the distance between the ball and Artest's hand with these two clicks, I have to say that Anthony is the most successful one to use with his ass after Barkley, Artest's hand tried to interfere with Anthony with some small movements, but unfortunately Anthony didn't seem to care at all and turned over and jumped directly to the jumper, and the basketball jumped high over Artest's fingers and drilled into the basket.

"I said I could." Anthony left this sentence in Gu Fei's ear and ran to the frontcourt.

Looking at Anthony's back, Gu Fei smiled knowingly, this is just the beginning.

Offense and defense switched, the Clippers' offense unfolded in the shouts of more than 20,000 fans on the scene, Gu Fei and Artest's cross-position Miller's pass came to Gu Fei again, and the experience of meeting the Clippers three times this season made Deng Tai Jones mentally prepared when defending Gu Fei, when Gu Fei just received the ball and stood firm, Deng Tai Jones also stood in front of Gu Fei.

Looking at Deng Tai Jones, who was only half a step away from him, Gu Fei was careless and made the most basic triple threat move and then looked at Jones's defense.

The continuous tentative steps stimulated Deng Tai Jones's defense, suddenly accelerated and then made a sharp stop to deceive Jones's defensive center of gravity, and then a big change to the ball to the left hand after the whole person accelerated again, Deng Tai Jones was left behind, and Gu Fei rushed straight to the inside.

Nene looked at Gu Fei who suddenly came in, and after signaling Kenyon Martin with his eyes, he was about to come out to make up for Gu Fei, and just when he was moving towards Gu Fei, Gu Fei raised the basketball and flew directly to the basket.

On the other side, Tyson Chandler kicked and jumped on the ground with understanding, Kenyon Martin didn't have time to react at all, Chandler was already completely in the air, and the basketball almost came to Chandler's hand when Chandler reached its highest point, it looked like it was a precise millimeter pass, and Nene just followed the arc of the basketball and turned around, just when Chandler jumped up the air to relay a stumbling stumble.

Nene watched tragically as Tyson Chandler completed the aerial relay on his head, and he became the backdrop for this brilliant aerial relay.

"Well done" Gu Fei patted Chandler's buttocks, "You can never" Gu Fei coldly left this sentence in Anthony's ear and ran to the backcourt, and Anthony with a cold face behind him.

Anthony is indeed a super scoring machine, but as the analysis given by the "Los Angeles Times" before the game, he likes to go it alone and does not do well in the face of high-pressure defense, and Artest who defends him is a player who likes to put a lot of pressure on the opponent in defense, and the first goal was easily scored by Anthony, which made Artest feel very faceless, and when the Nuggets ball was handed over to Anthony again, Anthony obviously felt that Artest behind him was different.

In addition to the small actions as always, Arthe's strong body did not wait for Anthony to take the initiative to attack and began to press, pushing Anthony little by little, which disrupted Anthony's offensive rhythm, coupled with Artest's chatter trash talk, Anthony chose to play alone and directly ignored his teammates who had a chance, but the basketball did not get into the basket as he wished, but brushed out of the frame, which made Anthony think that it was just his bad luck and not his own hand just a little bad luck, This thought led Anthony to choose individual offenses in the next few attacks, and the results were not good.

When the game came to the fifth minute, George Carr called a long timeout with a cold face, and it was all because Anthony disrupted the team's original deployment, and it seems that such a statistic is not bad in 3 of 8 shots, but with the frequent opportunities of the rest of the Nuggets in the game, Anthony is undoubtedly the culprit behind the Nuggets by 10 points.

"The pre-game analysis is good, is Cameron a paper man when Ron? Everyone knows how strong Ron's defense is, and he often chooses to single Ron and even ignores the presence of his teammates, and if Cameron is in this state throughout the series, I guarantee that the Clippers will easily send the Nuggets on vacation. Mark Jackson directly criticized Anthony by name.

"Ron, good job, keep it up" Mike Dunleavy first praised Artest for his role in the first five minutes, and then began to point out some of the problems that had just arisen in the game, while the Nuggets bench on the other side, George Carr, was furious, "If you want to play, learn to pass and learn to be sensible, not alone, this is not your team alone, don't let the team become your irrational burial object." Chauncey, next you take over the game, the ball is distributed and I'm sure you can do a good job. Karl directly deprived Anthony of the ball, and Anthony kept his face cold and did not speak.

When the game resumed, Billups controlled the Nuggets' tempo, using his rich experience to direct the Nuggets' offense and defense, but without Anthony's threat on the offensive end, the Nuggets, who relied solely on Billups and None, failed to find a more efficient way to score.

At the end of the first quarter, the Clippers at home took a 13-point lead, which was undoubtedly a wonderful start for the Clippers.

The Staples Arena was filled with cheers, and although there were still three quarters to go, the team's good form gave them confidence in victory.

Gu Fei didn't shoot much in the first quarter of the game, but the efficiency was as efficient as ever, in addition to scoring 8 points, he also handed out 3 assists.

The game in the second quarter began quickly, the Clippers consisted of Hibbert, Noah, Novak, JR-Smith, Chalmers formed a full bench lineup, and the Nuggets were played by Anthony, who did not perform well in the first quarter, with four substitutes, Anthony faced Novak, who was far less physically strong than Artest, and played a feeling of continuous hits, but when it was the Nuggets' turn to defend, the Nuggets couldn't parry the Clippers' offense at all, and JR-Smith began to have convulsions in the face of his old club as always, Three consecutive three-pointers offset Anthony's goal, and Novak, although he did not target Anthony on the defensive end, but found his face on the offensive end, plus Noah's defense and offense on the inside and Chalmers' organization of the second team competition, the Nuggets are still at a disadvantage, although George Karl called a timeout, it still can't change the fact that the bench lineup is obviously inferior to the Clippers, and when the second quarter came to six minutes, the Nuggets trailed the Clippers by 18 points.

George Karl can only change the main lineup in advance, and if he doesn't chase the points, it will be basically impossible for the Nuggets to catch up with the Clippers once the point difference falls outside 20 points.

After the timeout, Billups did not rush to attack because the team was behind, hovering outside the three-point line at the top of the arc under the marking of Andre Miller, and a top-up cover inside, Billups did not cut inside but directly withdrew from the three-point line after getting rid of Miller through the screen, and the basketball went directly into the basket.

"Chauncey is still a big heart, this three-point goal is extremely important for the Nuggets, and about fifteen points behind and about twenty points are two completely different mentalities for players, and players like Chauncey are what every coach dreams of." Jeff Van Gundy looked at George Karl with envy, he didn't have a good guard when he coached the Rockets, and he couldn't help but be envious when he saw point guards like Billups and Miller.

The morale of the Nuggets team was revived under Billups' three-point goal, and in the face of the Clippers' tidal attack, the defense of the whole team burst out with great combat effectiveness, and even Anthony used his body to entangle Artest, and when the time came to twenty-four seconds, Gu Fei caught the ball and forced him to hit the iron.

Kenyon Martin grabbed the rebound with the help of Nene cover and immediately handed it to Billups, and the Nuggets' counterattack quickly unfolded, and when Andre Miller retreated to the three-point line to wait for Billups to arrive, Billups made a sharp stop from outside the three-point line, and the basketball drilled into the basket again.

When two consecutive three-pointers made Staples's voice drop sharply, Mike Dunleavy on the sidelines pulled his throat, "Keep an eye on Chauncey, don't give him an empty spot, keep an eye on it, keep an eye on it." ”

Gu Fei obviously felt that Billups not only chased back six points for the Nuggets, but also completely boosted the morale of the Nuggets, and now the Clippers must complete the goal, if they don't score, then they may be chased by the Nuggets to continue to chase points, and once the momentum rises, it may not be blocked.

Deng Tai-Jones followed Gu Fei closely, trying to cut off the connection between Gu Fei and his teammates, but his crazy entanglement still failed to realize his idea, Gu Fei did not insist on getting close to the three-point line to catch the ball but ran directly to the middle circle, Miller directly handed the ball to Gu Fei with one hand.

Deng Tai Jones quickly posted it, Gu Fei was not in a hurry, and drove Jones to push outside the three-point line, when the team's morale was at a low point, a wonderful or domineering or difficult goal would undoubtedly greatly boost the team's morale, his arm blocked Jones's left hand and dribbled the ball steadily, and he quickly had a plan in his heart, "You can't stop me"

Gu Fei's voice was a little cold, and Deng Tai Jones's arm was even more open, carefully looking at the ball in Gu Fei's hand.

Waving his hand, he refused the kindness of his teammates to come up to block the demolition, and half-turned to lean his back against Dundee Jones.

"It looks like Gu is going to choose a singles." Mark Jackson said.

"Mark, there's no doubt about it, the Clippers need someone to step up right now, and that person is definitely Gu. I look forward to Gu Fei's riposte. Barkley's tone also became excited, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Gu Fei on the field, as if he was afraid of missing a wonderful goal.

Deng Tai-Jones's strength was not very good, and in the face of Gu Fei's incessant impact, he could only hold on.

Bang bang

The continuous impact is heavier than the last, such a force plus layer forced Deng Tai Jones to press his center of gravity as low as possible, just when Deng Tai Jones lowered the center of gravity, Gu Fei took his left foot as the axis, turned over and jumped, Deng Tai Jones was nervous but could not do anything, when he lifted the center of gravity and was ready to jump up to defend, Gu Fei had already thrown the ball out.

"Huh"

The basketball crossed an arc and smashed into the basket cleanly, which was an unreasonable and difficult three-point point, but Gu Fei just threw it, and Staples, who had just been depressed by Billups' two three-pointers, seemed to be reawakened by Gu Fei's three-point score.

Looking at Billups Gu Fei in the distance, he smiled lightly, and the meaning between his eyebrows was obvious.

In the next game, both the Nuggets and the Clippers consciously put the offensive power into the hands of Billups and Gu Fei, and Billups, who has always been low-key on the offensive end, was completely full of firepower.

Billups breaks through and hits.

Gu Fei directly accelerated and then hit a jump shot.

Billups hit a three-pointer from a screen

Gu Fei jumped directly one step away from the three-point line and hit the shot

Billups scored a driving layup and drew a foul on Mike Roberts to complete the two-and-one.

Gu Fei burst into the inside and made a layup.

The two men maintained a terrifying shooting percentage, while it was undoubtedly Andre Miller and Dundee Jones who suffered, and before they knew it, the first half came to the final thirty seconds.

Billups came to the front court with the ball in control, and Andre Miller's nerves immediately tensed.

Consuming offensive time, when there were eight seconds left in twenty-four seconds, Billups moved, and broke through Andre Miller's defense again after three consecutive changes of direction, but this time he did not continue his hand, and the basketball brushed out of the frame, which was also the first time that Billups missed after hitting seven consecutive balls, Tyson Chandler Although he did not have the main position, the advantage of height and arm length still allowed him to grab the defensive rebound and immediately handed it to Gu Fei.

There are six seconds left before the first half.

Gu Fei did not choose to call a timeout, but directly and quickly dribbled to the frontcourt, when Gu Fei advanced to two steps outside the three-point line, Anthony and Deng Tai-Jones pressed up, there was little time left, Gu Fei couldn't make too many moves, and after a simple dodge, Gu Fei jumped up directly against the two people.

Anthony's hand almost blocked his vision, and Gu Fei threw the ball out with his intuition.

As the whistle blew at the end of the half, the basketball went into the basket.

"The Nuggets want Black Eight? It's all delusional," Barkley yelled excitedly. (To be continued.) )
