Chapter 690: Inside Singles

The Pelicans were actually overtaken, this matter is a bit big, and if it goes on like this, seeing that the Pelicans can't hold it down, Van Gundy glanced back at Li Feng and immediately wanted to get on Li Feng.

But he still hesitated, because the Pelicans' bench lineup was okay before, and Li Feng himself was a little too dependent on one person this morning.

Just when Van Gundy was hesitating, the Pelicans bench hadn't been so wolf for a long time, and immediately hit the ball from the backcourt.

Brand is also forced to fight with Ryan Kelly when he gets the ball, Brand has a strong offense in the past, a face frame, and can play with a back basket. No matter how you beat Brand, he has an advantage, but today against Ryan Kelly, he felt like he was prickly.

The main reason is that Ryan Kelly is an inside line from Duke, his feet are fast enough, his attitude is hard enough, Brand can't play the opponent with his feet, he can resist the opponent hard, and the defense of pulling out the jump shot Ryan Kelly is also better.

Brand, who is already old, has encountered this kind of power forward, which is really difficult to play!

At this time, he also wanted to shoot directly with the ball, but Ryan Kelly came up to defend well, took the ball and dribbled to break through one step, and Ryan Kelly also gave Brand to the card owner at his feet, and Brand could only beat Ryan Kelly with his back in the end.

But Ryan Kelly didn't look very strong, but his feet were very solid, and his foundation was very solid, and Brand couldn't shake it off left and right, got up and forced a shot, but he didn't shoot again. Ryan Kelly jumped up to grab the rebound again, then turned around and threw it to Marshall.

Marshall dribbled the ball this time and came towards the Pelicans like a gust of wind, to the Pelicans halfcourt.

Thackeray came up and made a cover for Marshall, who went around and threw a three-pointer.

Swish!

The three-pointer hit the Pelicans' basket, and the Lakers outscored the Pelicans by four points. The Pelicans couldn't calm down, and Van Gundy couldn't calm down, and Van Gundy didn't hesitate to call a timeout this timeout, and then began to make substitutions. Van Gundy decided to go crazy this time, first replaced Li Feng, and then replaced Paul Millsap, Van Gundy changed both singles weapons at once, and then replaced Henson.

Henson's blocking and defensive ability is excellent at times, but when it comes to the Lakers' lewd bench lineup, his blocks are useless, and now the Pelicans obviously need more offense and outside defense.

D'Antoni's cunning side at this time was revealed, he seemed to know what the Pelicans were going to do, and he actually took advantage of this opportunity to change people.

In the center of the field, he replaced Chris Kaman. Then when the two sides returned to the court, Van Gundy almost cursed.

Although this Chris Carman has been affected too much by injuries, he is still top-notch in the league when it comes to defensive ability.

Not to mention Paul Millsap, even to replace Al Jefferson, it is definitely not easy to take advantage of Chris Kaman.

Now that D'Antoni has actually replaced him, it looks like Paul Millsap has something to do.

The opening was the Pelicans' ball, Li Feng came over to get the ball, and saw Shaun Williams switch positions to defend himself, while the Lakers' defense shrank very small. is confined near the penalty area, so it will be very difficult for Li Feng to play a low post or break through.

At this time, Li Feng could only use his back to attack tentatively and pressed inside, but Chris Carman supported a high-altitude defense in the back. Sean Williams was behind him, and Ryan Kelly was on the side, and it was a three-dimensional defense that came up.

Li Feng could only throw the basketball out to Brewer, and Brewer was not the time for the Jazz now. He moved fast and developed a three-point basket, and at this time he naturally raised his hand to make a three-pointer.

Brewer's three points are still very accurate. Suddenly, it pierced the Lakers' basket.

Although Li Feng has not scored points yet, Li Feng has brought a lot of defensive pressure to the Lakers, and the scoring opportunities with him in his teammates have also greatly increased.

Brewer caught up with a three-pointer, and the difference between the two teams was two points. If the average coach had seen this, he would have reacted a long time ago.

But one of D'Antoni's most classic points is in employing people, and the other is that the on-the-spot reaction is always slow and half a beat, he will not solve the problem immediately, but will let the players deal with it themselves, if the players really do not have this wisdom, he will make substitutions.

So D'Antoni has cultivated a lot of players with brains, and he is willing to let players use their brains to solve problems.

Now that the Pelicans are catching up, he is not in a hurry, and leaves the problem to the players to solve first.

Marshall is a young man, and his head is full of fierce punches, so naturally there is no way to solve the brain problem.

He came over to get the ball and immediately gave the ball out to catch Sean Williams, Sean Williams' IQ is still enough.

He's seen from the previous games that Ryan Kelly was in good shape today, and Ryan Kelly was a little bit of a Kebrand, which is something to look forward to.

So Sean Williams immediately directed his teammates to run, and then saw Ryan Kelly running over, and he quickly passed the basketball to Ryan Kelly.

Ryan Kelly got the basketball again, and this time Brand's eyes were a little red, and he immediately rushed up to defend.

Brand has suffered a lot of losses here today in Ryan Kelly, and he is depressed now!

As soon as he saw Ryan Kelly coming over with the ball, he immediately rushed over and slashed at Ryan Kelly.

Ryan Kelly is a player who is considered by experts to have no future and knows how to cherish opportunities, and now that he has the ball, he immediately makes a shooting feint, then goes up and breaks through half a step, and then turns around and jumps directly.

Ryan Kelly's previous series of moves didn't get rid of Brand, but the key thing is that when he started to shoot, Ryan Kelly took advantage of him to bounce well, dodged Brand, and hit a difficult shot.

Elton Brand, a former All-Star, was beaten by Ryan Kelly in a row, and he felt this grievance. However, Ryan Kelly is such a player, although he is a substitute and a grassroots, but he has a strong ability to play key balls, and his scoring efficiency after taking the ball is also very strong.

Brand is not wronged!

As soon as Van Gundy saw that he was on Li Feng, the Lakers' group of substitutes couldn't hold it down, and he suddenly shouted:

"You all concentrate a little bit, is this the game? It's not a pickle girl! ”

Van Gundy was angry. This is something that the Pelicans players have felt. Li Feng also felt that the head coach was very angry and had to work hard.

Li Feng came back and saw that Sean Williams was still in front of him, Li Feng said in his heart, I can't blame me for this, our head coach is angry, I have to beat you.

Sean Williams is the kind of defensive player who is delay-limiting, which means he has to rely on the team, and he comes up and delays and limits all of a sudden. You have to have teammates come up to help you in the back, so that you can defend perfectly.

Otherwise, when encountering superstar-level players, Sean Williams can't defend, which is a characteristic of Sean Williams' defense.

Li Feng came up to hit Sean Williams without much care, forced up and pressed a step with his chest, and then suddenly a back dribble, stepped back, and Sean Williams flew over to defend.

Li Feng was already above his head, and the gap in body quality was decisive.

Li Feng got up and threw a mid-distance and easily scored two points.

After getting two points. Turning around, the Pelicans immediately made a defensive steal in the frontcourt, delaying the Lakers' offense.

The ball came out on the Lakers' side and was almost stealed by the Pelicans. Wait until the Lakers finally advanced to the half of the time that said the Pelicans. The Pelicans have already laid out the defensive formation for the halfcourt, and the Lakers have a group of substitutes at this time.

It's easy to play fast break, but in the face of the Pelicans' solid defensive position, there is no way.

Facing the Pelicans' well-placed defense. The Lakers handed over the basketball to Ryan Kelly and let Ryan Kelly single out Brand.

Ryan Kelly was also a little excited to get the ball, and he forcibly rushed at Brand when he got the ball. He had beaten Brand several times before, and the success rate was good, so it was a bit simple to play at this time, but now the Pelicans' defensive formation is actually different from just now.

After Li Feng came back, the Pelicans' defensive style was different from before, and without Li Feng, the Pelicans' defense mostly relied on individual strength. But with Li Feng's strong physical element, the Pelicans will rely more on Li Feng's back-and-forth defense.

Van Gundy gave Li Feng a heavy task on the defensive end, even heavier than on the offensive end, on the offensive end, the Pelicans still have Brand and Paul Millsap to rely on, and Al Jefferson can also support it, but on the Pelicans' outside defensive end, he can come and go like the wind, and only Li Feng can defend multiple positions.

So at this time, Ryan Kelly got up with the ball, Li Feng quietly covered it from behind, and Ryan Kelly relied on the bounce to get up and wanted to score points on Brand's head.

Brand saw that Li Feng was coming up, and immediately resisted Ryan Kelly, so that Li Feng just happened to have a big hat and blocked the ball on Ryan Kelly.

The basketball was directly blocked, and Brand picked up the basketball happily below, and then turned around and passed the ball vigorously.

The basketball went directly to Brewer's hands in the front court, and when Brewer saw that Meeks was hesitating when he came back behind him, he saw that Li Feng, who had just finished blocking, had already reached the three-point line, and this speed was like a ghost.

Brewer was also impressed by Li Feng's speed at this time, turned around and passed Li Feng, and Li Feng shot directly with three points in an empty position.

Swish!

Li Feng's three-point shot went into the net in response, and the Pelicans moved the score back in an instant after Li Feng came back.

D'Antoni raised his hand to look at his watch at this time, the second quarter was almost three minutes away, the time was up, and now is really not the time to solve the problem with wisdom.

Wisdom can solve some problems, but it can't solve all problems, if the other party is more comprehensive than you, your wisdom is meaningless. That's why only superstars can make it to the end, and when everyone is desperate and strained, only extraordinary talent is reliable. The rest of the stuff won't work!

Li Feng returned to the court at this time, and suddenly made the Pelicans' outside defense tougher, and the inside package was also more threatening.

D'Antoni immediately discovered that when Li Feng came back, the Lakers' talent was no longer enough, so at this moment he replaced the Lakers' most powerful player, Kobe.

The Lakers came back to Kobe, and Kobe Bryant got the basketball on the sidelines, and Kobe's ability to organize offense at this time increased greatly.

Most of the Lakers' basketball is handed over to Kobe Bryant, and Li Feng happened to be in front of Kobe Bryant at this time.

Seeing Kobe, Li Feng came up and harassed Kobe, but Kobe immediately held the ball with one hand and then blocked Li Feng.

Li Feng is a very fierce swinging person in general. But Kobe Bryant faced Li Feng but did not soft or hard one-handed grasp the ball and put the basketball behind him, in this state, Li Feng had no way to harass the basketball.

Kobe Bryant also knew his situation at this time, he took the ball and did not attack directly, but asked Chris Carman to come out to pick it up.

He passed the basketball to Chris Carman, and then ran past Chris Carman's side, so that Kobe Bryant saved the effort of holding the ball and forcing Li Feng, and there was also a delay from Chris Carmante, who handed the basketball to Kobe.

Kobe Bryant took the ball over and took a step back in a big stride. Then got up and threw a mid-range back.

Li Feng was blocked by Chris Karman, and he didn't go to Kobe Bryant, Kobe Bryant retreated such a big step, his subs were still tall, and Li Feng couldn't prevent it when he went up. Bryant raised his hand to score two points.

Li Feng came up and suffered a loss, and when he turned around and was about to retaliate, he saw that it was Sean Williams who came to defend himself instead of Kobe.

Kobe Bryant is not in good physical condition now, and he generally does not make big confrontation moves. But with Sean Williams, it really can't defend Li Feng, Li Feng takes the ball up in front of Sean Williams. A straight pull-up jump shot.

Basketball is still in! Sean Williams couldn't bear Li Feng's direct attack.

Li Feng scored seven points with three shots, and the Lakers also took out the best outside defense player Sean Williams to defend Li Feng, but the effect was still not obvious.

At this time, D'Antoni could only rely on the strength of the collective, and D'Antoni hurriedly called Ryan Kelly at this time and asked Ryan Kelly to help Sean Williams defend Li Feng.

At the same time on the Pelicans' side. The Pelicans' defensive level has also been improved, and Li Feng personally went to take care of Kobe.

On the court, D'Antoni replaced Kobe Bryant and did not give the team an absolute advantage, Kobe Bryant played flashing at this time. The situation cannot be completely reversed.

In this way, D'Antoni continued to be the main force and replaced Pau Gasol. Swapped Chris Kaman.

As soon as Pau Gasol came up, the situation was different again, before D'Antoni hoped that Kobe Bryant would support the team, but now Kobe Bryant is not in good health and can't hold on, so he can only go to Pau Gasol at this time.

Pau Gasol's interior singles can indeed change the current dilemma of the Lakers' lack of one-on-one ability.

Pau Gasol came out, and the Lakers immediately played a Pau Gasol tactic, Pau Gasol took the position in the low post on the left, and then turned his head to single Paul Millsap, for Paul Gasol to play Paul Millsap alone, it was relatively simple. Because although Paul Millsap has excellent singles ability, but the defense of such tall players suffers, there is no way, the height disadvantage can be made up for in a certain way, but the gap is too big.

Pau Gasol scored directly with two steps in a row, a hook hand, and Gasol came back to get the point! And Pau Gasol also felt good in the first quarter, and the Pelicans had already seen it at this time, Pau Gasol felt good today, and the Lakers' D'Antoni also saw it, and Pau Gasol felt good today.

In this case, D'Antoni immediately commanded on the sidelines so that the team could play Pau Gasol more, and Van Gundy also immediately came over to question Li Feng why he didn't make a strong bag on Pau Gasol.

was questioned by Van Gundy like this, Li Feng initially felt that it was a bit of a fuss to cover Gasol, but seeing that the other party was in such a good state, and now that the head coach found out, he came to scold himself, Li Feng felt that he was also a little careless.

The Lakers gradually got on the main line, and the Pelicans turned around and still played a double-pull tactic.

Now as long as the Lakers play Pau Gasol, the Pelicans will pull out both outside lines, and the Pelicans can shoot a lot of outside lines.

Paul Gasol at this time, it is true that he can't keep up with this rhythm of pulling out, Paul Millsap came over and shook around the outside several times, constantly covering his teammates, and then moving left and right for a while.

This kind of continuous movement in the half, Pau Gasol is indeed a little tired to deal with, Pau Gasol accidentally followed Brewer when he cut into the air, Paul Millsap pulled to the outside vacancy, Paul Millsap has the ability to shoot three-pointers.

The Pelicans immediately passed the basketball to Paul Millsap, who couldn't defend Gasol, but the mid-range was still very stable, and he took the ball and raised his hand to shoot a mid-range.

Paul Millsap's side also got points very quickly!

In the second quarter, the two teams entered a white-hot stage again, and the Lakers took the lead at the beginning, and then Li Feng came up and immediately chased back.

Now that the Lakers are on the main force, they have also begun to exert their strength, and today this game is full of elites on both sides, and you are chasing me.

The Lakers saw that the Pelicans were in hot pursuit, and they also played over, and immediately handed over the basketball to Pau Gasol, who was in great shape today.

This time, Li Feng did not have a soft hand, and he quickly grabbed Paul Gasol, but Paul Gasol took the ball at this time in the direction of Li Feng's bag, and suddenly turned to the direction of the bottom line, leaving Li Feng with a big ass.

Turning to the bottom line, in an almost negative angle position, Pau Gasol made a hook hand, at this height, Pau Gasol hooked his hand, Li Feng didn't have time to jump, he could only watch Pau Gasol attack with this difficult move. (To be continued......)
