Chapter 704: The Destructive Power of the Beast
Li Feng was yelled at by Van Gundy just now, and at this time he also realized that it was useless to reason with the pioneers who had gone crazy, and the one-on-one fight could no longer suppress the crazy pioneers.
At this time, if you want to beat the arrogance of the Blazers, you can only use a more unreasonable offensive method, so Li Feng took the ball up at this time, leaned out, pressed the opponent a step, and then retreated slightly, when Batum thought that Li Feng was going to jump again.
Li Feng suddenly blasted towards the middle of the basket like a thunderbolt, and Batum crossed his shoulder, but was knocked away by Li Feng at once.
Robin Lopez pounced on Li Feng from the side, but Li Feng rushed to the basket like a beast at the same time, and Li Feng's body and Robin Lopez collided hard.
Robin Lopez came from the side, and the referee immediately blew the whistle, but Li Feng, who was in the air, held the basketball high with both hands and stopped slightly, dodging Robin Lopez's hand and brushing the basketball towards the rebound.
The ball is in! A foul on Robin Lopez was also created.
Li Feng suddenly exerted his strength, as if a beast was out of the cage, and the pioneer couldn't resist it at all.
The ball is in, and the penalty will be added!
When Li Feng walked to the free throw line, the Pelicans looked at the Trail Blazers with a look of contempt, and the eyes of the Trail Blazers players looked at Li Feng with fear.
In this instant, Li Feng's extraordinary ability was completely revealed as if it were an explosion, and Li Feng burst out with the true power of the Tyrannosaurus Rex in that moment just now.
It's scary, and it's shocking.
Just when Li Feng was on the free throw line, Antoine Walker said on the side:
"At that moment just now, Li Feng even made me mistake him for a beast. And not a human being! ”
Just when Antoine Walker said this, the big screen at the scene gave a close-up shot, and in the close-up shot, Li Feng's impact was even more prominent, as if he could be knocked out of the lens.
In the face of such an impact, timid fellow. I'm afraid that this momentum alone will not be able to stand it.
Many fans of the New Orleans Arena saw such an impact, and their faces were a little pale, but they immediately imagined that this was a player on their side, and they suddenly became happy.
Li Feng hit a free throw at the free throw line, and at this time, Stotts also realized that Batum couldn't deal with such a Li Feng.
He immediately took advantage of Li Feng's free throws to replace James Posey.
James Posey has defended Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, and Stotts believes James Posey has a certain way.
James Posey naturally knows what the manager is going to do, but he really doesn't have any special solutions.
can defend Kobe or LeBron James, not by individual ability, but by overall defensive tactics.
And defensively. Stotts' ability has always been not strong, Stotts has coached several teams before and after have produced super defenders with extraordinary ability, but the team's record has never been very good, one is that Stotts is not good at using space, and his team is often squeezed in the middle.
This is the case with the Bucks at the beginning, the Trail Blazers at this stage, and the Cavaliers in the future, Stotts is not good at using space, and another point is that Stotts' ability to command the team's defense is debatable.
He's also not a coach who is good at setting up defenses. There is no team defense, let Posey defend, Li Feng is actually not much stronger than Batum.
But at this time, the battle situation was urgent, and James Posey had no choice but to say anything.
On the Trail Blazers' side, Lillard stepped back for three points, and Li Feng immediately forced a breakthrough. The attacking mode of the two teams quickly turned into a star-to-star showdown.
It's a wonderful pattern. But it's also a life-and-death pattern, and the losing side in a star-to-star duel will be devastated.
Lillard just surprised the court with a drop back, and that's when he came over with the ball. The Pelicans players followed Van Gundy's command, and Li Feng and Rose pounced on Lillard again.
The Pelicans still have to press outside. And this time the intensity of the looting is greater, and the aggressiveness of the monster with Li Feng participating in the looting will definitely be stronger.
Because Li Feng is fast in his hands and moves fast. Whether it's bounce or not, it's not easy for Lillard to pass the ball from Li Feng's head.
Lillard took the ball over and saw that the Pelicans were still pressing him, and he immediately dribbled the ball behind his back with the ball, then turned and ran backwards.
Li Feng and Rose chased desperately from behind, and at this moment, Lillard's cunning body turned to the left and made a feint to break through the left, just as Li Feng and Rose moved to the left.
Lillard took the ball to the right side, and the basketball went straight to James Posey, who was 45 degrees away from the three-point line on the right.
Posey took the ball exactly in the open space, and the veteran would not miss this opportunity, and Posey took the ball and shot.
"Huh!"
The Trail Blazers' three-pointer went in again. The overall shooting percentage of the Trail Blazers today was really high, and they shot so many three-pointers that they all hit them efficiently.
What made Van Gundy feel even more desperate was that Lillard could still find open players in the midst of the Pelicans' super pressing.
At this time, Lillard's ball-handling ability, mental intelligence, and passing ability are simply breathtaking.
One time it was a fluke, but both times it was passed so accurately, it was definitely not! Lillard's ability to organize the ball directly destroys the Pelicans' defensive system.
In the face of Lillard's playmaking ability, any team that wants to press him will have a good chance of being counterattacked. In this way, who would dare to press the Trailblazers tightly.
Li Feng had just shown the body of the beast, and now that Lillard had returned, he had immediately shown Superman's organizational vision.
The game between the two teams entered a super strong cut-off, and the strongest things of both teams were taken out, and they were ready to kill each other at once. The third quarter was indeed a good time to fight it out, and the Pelicans rushed up again in the cheers of the audience.
At this time, James Posey did not stick in front of Li Feng to defend, because he knew that with his own speed, Li Feng could throw himself off with one turn, so he gave Li Feng space to take a step.
James Posey is a scheming in the end, he just saw Li Feng's long-range shot was not good, and at this time he immediately took a step back.
Li Feng came up and easily got the basketball and looked forward, just to see James Posey facing Li Feng and retreating a little again.
James Posey directly gave Li Feng a huge space, and the meaning was obvious. I'm just letting you shoot, you just shoot and I'll leave you alone!
Mo Williams tempted Li Feng to shoot directly, and Li Feng took the ball and glanced at the old thing.
Li Feng didn't shoot or break through, but took the ball and turned his butt and slowly sat down on Posey.
Li Feng sat over so softly, but Posey complained bitterly and asked him to compare his strength with Li Feng, which was also a kind of torture for an old man like him.
Li Feng came up, one step, two steps. directly pressed Posey out of position, and at this time the Trailblazers hurriedly came up to help defend.
Aldridge came up from behind, and Matthews saw that Millsap was missing on the inside side, and he quickly stood between Millsap and Arenas.
At this time, he needs to see two people!
Just when Matthews was confused, Li Feng immediately sent a ground pass to Millsap, Millsap took the ball and lifted the basketball, Matthews could only give up Arenas and pounced.
At this point, Millsap tilted his hand and threw the basketball into the hands of Arenas in the bottom corner, who played well today. He didn't hesitate to take the ball and hit a three-point shot.
Arenas also hit a three-pointer, and the scores of the two teams became 73-69, and the Pelicans still couldn't catch up with the Trail Blazers. And it's the Trail Blazers at this point.
The game became more and more intense, Li Feng also passed a fatal good shot just now, and Posey's retreat defense plan obviously did not stop the Pelicans' progress.
Lillard hit two balls on his side. At this time, he came over and did not continue his solo dance, but came over and handed the basketball to Aldridge.
Aldridge played Millsap well before. Because although the two of them have similar styles, it is obvious that Aldridge is taller.
At this point, Lillard hit two balls in a row, and Aldridge came over to help Lillard continue his offense.
He still hit Millsap with the ball fiercely, and although Millsap was stronger than Aldridge, he was still beaten back by Aldridge.
The Pelicans looked a little overwhelmed by Millsap, but no one on the Pelicans dared to go up to the bag.
Because the shooting rate of the Trailblazers was too high before, no one dared to let their defenders lightly.
At this time, Aldridge turned on the left and raised his hand to attack, but Millsap couldn't hold back and made a foul in the past.
Aldridge fouled Millsap, and when the referee's whistle blew, Aldridge calmly went to the free throw line and hit both free throws.
Lillard didn't have much control of the ball in this round, and the ball went directly to Aldridge's hands, but Aldridge also completed the offense efficiently.
The overall strength of the Trailblazers makes the Pelicans particularly uncomfortable! It felt like there was no way to set the defensive focus. And the kind that the Pelicans were used to before, suddenly pounced and strangled the opponent's point guard, and it didn't have much effect today. Instead, the Trail Blazers scored points, and the Pelicans were a little helpless at this time.
There is no special way on the defensive end, and on the offensive end, the Pelicans can only fight hard with the opponent.
The Pelicans played again at this time, and the basketball was originally in Li Feng's hands first, and Li Feng took the ball here to take a look.
Millsap actively asked for the ball towards him, and it was obvious that Millsap was very unhappy with Aldridge's strong punch just now, and he immediately threw the basketball into Millsap's hands.
Millsap's side has two styles of low-post offense and Aldridge, Aldridge is a more direct style of play, and Millsap is more sour.
Millsap first took the ball up with a feint, and then stepped up to face the basket, and once he faced the basket, he could play to his size advantage. Millsap was taller than his opponent and threw a mid-range shot.
At this time, Millsap was also very focused by the atmosphere of the court, and when everyone was playing well, Millsap was also affected, and he shot this mid-distance.
Millsap hit a mid-range shot, and the score of the two teams reached 75-71, but the difference between the two teams was still not widened, and the two teams were still biting together.
At this time, the two teams are biting hard, and whoever can stand out will definitely dominate the game. Because at the moment both teams are attacking with all their might. Even beyond the full force, once the balance is broken, the game will immediately become unbalanced.
At this time, the Trail Blazers once again controlled the ball, and Van Gundy did not command his teammates to go up to the trap, leaving Rose to deal with Lillard alone.
At this time, Van Gundy also figured it out, Rose couldn't stop Lillard, and Lillard couldn't prevent Lillard alone unless Li Feng couldn't prevent it, but if he couldn't solve the problem with a double bag in a row, let Lillard pass the basketball out would be the whole team of the Trail Blazers.
Comparing the two, it is still up to Lillard to play it himself. And Van Gundy has a secret weapon that hasn't been used. He's not afraid that Lillard will pump too hard.
Lillard came over at this time to see that the Pelicans' tight defense was gone, but he was actually quite disappointed.
Lillard still wants the Pelicans to continue with the double-man, and he loves the challenge and feels he can handle it.
At this time, facing Rose alone, Lillard played more easily, and I saw that Lillard is now in shape.
Take the ball and swing it left and right in front of Rose, break to the left, then suddenly come back and walk to the right, and then another step-back jumper. Lillard shook off Ross again. A small jumper scored two points.
The Trail Blazers' ultra-high shooting percentage continues, and the Trail Blazers' momentum is also completely unstoppable.
In the first half, it was said that the Trail Blazers played at a super level, and at this time they were already at a super level. But the Pioneers' side is still fighting and has no intention of stopping.
Lillard came up and scored two more points of his own. Today's Lillard is as lethal as a poisonous bee, ubiquitous, impossible to resist and impossible to dodge.
Under such pressure. The Pelicans pushed the basketball over, but it was still delivered to Li Feng's hands first.
Millsap played one just now, and when he got the basketball at this time, he still asked Li Feng for the ball.
Li Feng felt when he saw Millsap. Isn't that great? He immediately passed the basketball to Millsap's hands.
Millsap got the ball this time, Aldridge didn't dare to let Millsap turn his body around, he knew that he was at a disadvantage in size.
This guy came up to fully defend Millsap and stuck to Millsap's body, preventing Millsap from turning his body.
At this point, Millsap couldn't play to his strengths, he could only control the ball for one step, then shook his shoulders from side to side, and threw a hook hand towards the baseline.
Millsap's movements and footwork were perfect, but he was a little far from the basket, and he hit the hoop with a shot and jumped out.
The Pelicans missed Millsap's shot this round, and it was seen that the basketball was about to fall into the hands of Robin Lopez, and Al Jefferson, who was squeezed together with Robin Lopez, used a means to suppress Robin Lopez's hand below, and then went up and hit the basketball first and pointed the basketball behind him.
As soon as the players of the two teams saw that the basketball had become helpless, several people went up to grab the ball, but among so many people, Li Fengfei was the highest and the most powerful, and Li Feng knocked several people in the air and got the basketball.
Li Feng grabbed the rebound in the backcourt, and then immediately turned back and passed to Rose, who was unguarded outside the three-point line. Lillard also went to grab the rebound just now!
This kind of big open opportunity, Rose was decisive, but his long-range shot was as bad as ever, Rose's three-point shot smashed to the front of the basket flatly, and rebounded back.
The ball was clearly bounced towards Matthews' head, and Matthews also stretched out his hands to get the ball.
But just when Matthews stretched out his hand, Li Feng came out of nowhere, and actually came sideways and took away the basketball with his hand.
The Trail Blazers' wing players lacked athleticism, and as long as the basketball flew far, it almost all fell into Li Feng's hands.
Li Feng took the ball this time but didn't pass the ball to Rose, this guy grabbed the rebound, took a step forward with his elbow, and then got up and threw a hook hand, and the basketball smashed into the basket through Robin Lopez.
Li Feng grabbed two backcourt rebounds in a row, and then helped the team score points. In terms of efficiency, the Pelicans are certainly inferior to the Trail Blazers, but in terms of athletic talent, the Pelicans are better than the Trail Blazers.
Li Feng grabbed two rebounds in a row, and when he ran over, he immediately high-fived his teammates and encouraged each other.
The game came to this juncture, and the two teams were still evenly matched. Van Gundy felt that he had to make a move, so he immediately went to the sidelines and yelled at Li Feng:
"Li Feng, you go defend Lillard!"
Van Gundy roared, and Stotts was startled, and when he looked at the court again, Li Feng was already standing in front of Lillard.
Li Feng and Lillard are not players in the same position, and their usual playing styles are also very different.
I saw that Li Feng suddenly pressed his center of gravity very low at this time, and his body almost fit the floor, and Lillard also lowered his center of gravity low, and then gently controlled the basketball.
Lillard has fought Li Feng before and knows that Li Feng's hand speed is fast, so he is more careful with the ball and moves more flexibly.
Lillard was cautious, but when he moved to the left, he still found himself underestimating Li Feng.
Li Feng's steps were also very flexible, and his arms were spread out, like the two pincers of a crab, making it difficult for him to break out of his embrace. (To be continued......)
