The Pelicans pulled the space away, but the Wizards didn't. As far as Li Feng and Gu Deng are single, this Gu Deng must have no return for the meat bun and the dog.

At this time, Wall hurriedly came over from the side to harass Li Feng, and Li Feng saw Wall come over and pull the basketball back slightly.

In this way, Gooden had a chance from behind, he reached out and stealed, Li Feng just pulled the basketball back and wanted to attack, but Wall took advantage of this opportunity to come again, Li Feng could only raise the ball and make a feint.

Li Feng used a feint to deceive Wall, but Wall didn't know to deceive that, he didn't suffer at all. Li Feng saw that he couldn't deceive Wall, so he could only turn around and deceive Gooden with another feint, Gooden saw that Li Feng had turned around, but he was not as cunning as Wall, he immediately reached out to cover it, Li Feng suddenly felt comfortable, and threw the ball with a scream.

The referee immediately blew for another foul and sent Li Feng to the free throw line.

Gooden missed several three-pointers in the second quarter, and was deceived by Li Feng again, so he was depressed and yelled at the referee, but the referee was not afraid of him and gave Gooden a technical foul back. This time Randy Whitman was depressed!

Just because Gooden screamed, he gave Li Feng three free throws in vain, and he himself missed three consecutive points, which is simply the sinner of the Wizards. Randy Whitman immediately took advantage of Li Feng's free throws to replace Gooden with Otto Porter.

Gooden is like this, sitting on the bench and still chattering, he is indeed more depressed now. Also more emotional!

Li Feng picked up another free throw opportunity for nothing, and at the free throw line, he hit all three free throws steadily.

Li Feng took three points for nothing, so that Mark Jones found some joints, and he said on the side:

"In the second quarter, Li Feng scored 2 points from the beginning to the present, but Li Feng actually scored 7 points by relying on free throws! Silently, he didn't see what Li Feng did at all, and he scored 9 points. You should say that Li Feng's destructive power is amazing! Or has Li Feng become a master of deception and foul play? ”

"I'm in favor of the latter! Of Li Feng's three fouls, two of them were deliberately found to foul. That's enough to tell. Li Feng This is intentional, the wizard should definitely be careful of Li Feng! ”

Joan Barry thinks that Li Feng is a sinister guy, Li Feng scored like this, the Wizards called, and Caron Butler still took the initiative to shoot a three-pointer without staying on the three-point line.

Crumon Butler tried to break the deadlock, but the Pelicans would rather let him break through than let him shoot three-pointers.

The Wizards missed another three-point shot, and this second quarter was a five-shot miss. The Wizards really don't have a feel on this side.

Caron Butler threw his fist frustrated when he missed his own shot, and the Pelicans grabbed the rebound in the backcourt without giving the Wizards any time to be frustrated.

Granger quickly advanced with the ball in the middle, and when the Wizards were paying attention to him, Granger suddenly passed the ball to Li Feng on the sideline.

Li Feng took the ball from the Wizards' wing, dribbled to the edge of the penalty area in one step, and stepped in another step. The moment Gortat came to block, Li Feng handed the basketball to his left hand, and his left hand was picked forward, and Li Feng changed hands in the air to avoid Gortat. He scored two points, and at the same time, Gortat's arm hit Li Feng's head, and the referee's whistle sounded.

2+1, Li Feng didn't just score points this time. also made a foul on the opponent and went to the free throw line, and Li Feng hit a free throw.

When Li Feng hit the penalty for this ball. The Pelicans bench and the exclusive fans behind the bench cheered. Because of such a ball from Tong Guò Li Feng, the score was rewritten to 47-49, and the Pelicans overtook the Wizards.

At this time, there were more than 4 minutes and 20 seconds left before the end of the second quarter, and the Pelicans chased 10 points in one go, and finally overtook them.

When this situation occurred, Yu Jia immediately asked Yang Yi in China:

"Yang Yi, why did the Wizards suddenly lose three points in the second quarter, and they were chased so fast!"

Yang Yi is smile, now that the Pelicans are ahead, he is naturally happy.

Because the Pelicans focused on defending the three-point line, destroying the Wizards' good three-point feel before, after losing the three points, the Wizards did not have other effective continuous offensive means, and it took 8 minutes in the second quarter to score 10 points, and the Pelicans went to the free throw line, and Li Feng's dominance has scored 22 points so far, and the Wizards can only lose in this situation. In the end, the Wizards didn't solve it well in the second quarter. ”

In the second quarter, the Pelicans overtook the score back, and the Wizards were crazy at the end of the first half, trying to chase the score back, but their shooting percentage in the second quarter was really poor, and they also lost the important lifeline of the three-point line.

So they were already lacking in scoring at the end of the second quarter, and at the end of the two quarters, the Pelicans led by 8 points at 60-52.

The first half of the Wizards was a two-day experience of ice and fire, with the first quarter feeling good to death, and the second quarter being poor to death.

In this case, the first half was over, and at the end of the game, Joan Barry and Mark Jones were together to comment on the content of the first half.

"The Wizard's table in today's two sections is too different, how can you take a look at this matter." Mark Jones was the first to question Joan Barry.

Joanbari thought for a moment at this time and said:

"The Wizards' two quarters today are mostly offensive. On the defensive end, the difference between the Wizards' table in the two quarters today is still not big, although the Wizards' table in the second quarter is a little impatient, but the defensive end is still very hard, and overall the Wizards' defense has improved in the first half! ”

"On the offensive end, the Wizards hit consecutive three-pointers in the first quarter and a three-pointer in the second quarter, and the difference is both a Pelicans defensive factor and the Wizards' own offensive offensive style is a single factor."

"In the second half, if the Wizards want to show something, or even regain the feel of the first quarter, they have to show something on the offensive end. began to attack the Pelicans' interior line, and they only had a chance if they beat the Pelicans' interior line painfully. ”

Joanbari pointed out the crux of the Wizards, although the Wizards paid attention to the low-post offense today, but the crux of the lack of low-post offense was determined by the team's roster structure. Although they strengthened this aspect today, it was still not enough, and it was still not enough to focus the Pelicans' defensive attention on their interior line.

In China, Yang Yi also said:

"The Wizards' three-point shooting in the first quarter today was good, and they scored more than 20 points with three points. In the second quarter, they habitually seemed to rely on three-point points. It didn't turn out to be a three-point game, and they didn't have any other way to score, so they scored very low. Compared with the Wizards, the Pelicans are in average shape today, but when the Pelicans offense is average, they rely on free throws to score a lot of points. Especially Li Feng, you can say that this is cunning, but you can also say that this is maturity! ”

For 20 minutes at halftime, the Pelicans basically remained stable, but the Wizards couldn't be calm.

This is a quasi-life-and-death battle. The Wizards can only move forward and not go backwards, and if they lose the playoffs, they may play strong teams such as the Nets, and even lose their playoff spots, which is unacceptable to Randy Whitman no matter what.

So at halftime, Randy Whitman roared into the locker room, pointing at the noses of the players and scolding.

In the past, Randy Whitman was a liberal and basically didn't get angry, but now Randy Whitman is angry.

The Wizards' locker room was suddenly silent, and Caron Butler was also scolded a little confused.

At times like these. The Wizards are starting to reflect on their own performances. First of all, Caron Butler felt that he had shot too much and not pressed the opponent enough. Wall also felt that he was yelling too little and did not play the role of a team tandem. Gortat and Nene also felt very seriously that both of them were not very resolute on the offensive end.

The Wizards' side is a big reflection for the whole team. At the last moment, they are indeed very stressed in terms of ideology. But the power is also very large.

With a 20-minute break, the Pelicans are resting on the body, and the Wizards are resting on the spirit.

Second half timeout came back. The Pelicans tee off first, the Pelicans start the first half, or the Five Tigers.

That's when the pelicans came. still continued the strategy of the first half, came up or played steadily, the team ran a complicated set of tactics when they came over, and then directly passed the basketball to Al Jefferson who was stuck in the waist position.

Al Jefferson took the ball up here, still trying to suppress Nene as he did in the first half, but at this time Nene's defense was obviously much tougher, defending hard in the back, and reaching in front to harass Al Jefferson's possession.

Al Jefferson didn't expect that the defense inside the second half was harder, and the basketball was almost cut off if he was a little careless.

Al Jefferson was almost cut off all of a sudden, and when he came back to attack, the rhythm was gone, and the shot missed.

The Pelicans' first offensive effect in the second half was not very good, and at this time everyone saw the defensive intensity of the Wizards.

Yang Yi also said in the first sentence of the second half at this time:

"The Wizards' defense is stronger! Pelicans need to be careful. ”

The Wizards kicked off the baseline, and immediately the Pelicans felt that the Wizards were not only stronger defensively, but also more ferocious offensively.

Wall took the ball up from the baseline, advanced quickly, and pressed Knight with his body to be a desperate bully.

Knight couldn't support it here, so Li Feng could only help, but when Li Feng went to help, Wall had already foreseen the basketball in Otto Porter's hands.

Otto Porter played soy sauce in the first half, and at this time Otto Porter took the ball and rushed towards the Pelicans' restricted area.

Li Feng turned back to defend, but he couldn't keep up, and the Pelicans only came to fill in the position, and at this time, Otto Porter suddenly passed a good ball and passed the basketball from behind him to Nene on the baseline.

Nene also couldn't make a ferocious attack to the basket, and his body hit Al Jefferson's body, not only causing a foul, but also sending the basketball to the Pelicans' basket.

Nene created Al Jefferson's 2+1, which was unexpected, Nene didn't have much offensive ability, but now he can also create Al Jefferson's 2+1, which shows that the Wizards are really ruthless to attack the Pelicans' interior.

Nene went to the free throw line and hit a free throw, and Nene scored 3 points.

The Wizards had changes at the start of the game on both ends of the floor, and Van Gundy was keenly aware of them right away.

But in this case, Van Gundy also hurriedly went to the sidelines and yelled:

"Pay attention to the defense of the penalty area, protect the ball, and Knight pay attention to the cooperation with Li Feng."

Van Gundy yelled here, and Knight cautiously dribbled over and ran around Li Feng for a block.

Then he suddenly passed the ball to Gasol, who cut to the basket and took a step inside. Then immediately threw a hook hand.

This move was originally a trick for Gasol, but now Gortat puts a lot of pressure on Gasol's defense.

Gasol came under more pressure on his body and went soft.

The Pelicans failed to attack the basket in the opening two attempts, which made the team a little embarrassed.

The Wizards grabbed the rebound, but immediately chased it back, and the Pelicans' defensive focus was still on the three-point line.

In this way, Wall came over and quickly gave Knight, and after Knight, Wall was not in a hurry to attack when he arrived in the Pelicans' restricted area, and raised his hand to make a feint. Then go back and do a feint again.

Wall's continuous feints, the Pelicans' defense suddenly went up and down, and at this time, Wall suddenly passed the ball to Caron Butler in the bottom corner.

Caron Butler faced the basket in the open space and made an easy three-pointer.

"Brush!"

Kaloon Butler's three-point shot, accurate shooting, in terms of offensive skills, Kaloon Butler is superb.

The Wizards hit six straight points at the beginning of the second half, and the Pelicans could only open for less than a minute and called a timeout urgently.

The Wizards scored six straight points. The difference between the two teams was shortened to 2 points, 60-58, and the Wizards chased after it ferociously.

When it comes to scoring ability, the Wizards are really good. A difference of 8 points. Soon caught up.

At this time, Qiong Bari also hurriedly said:

"The Wizards paid attention to the inside in the second half and played an inside cut, and Wall also disrupted the inside, and the Wizards' outside opportunity came out! There is only an inside attack. Outside opportunities can come. ”

The Pelicans called a timeout, and Van Gundy immediately came over to set up an interior defense, and the main goal was to block the opponent's three-point line. And block the forbidden area.

On offense, Van Gundy also asked the team to play more resolutely, and since the Wizards want to come hard, the Pelicans can't show weakness.

With the game in place, the timeout was over, and the Pelicans returned to the sideline to tee, with Al Jefferson throwing the ball out.

Li Feng jumped out to catch the ball, then turned around and immediately put pressure on the opponent, dribbling with his back to Otto Porter.

Li Feng began to beat with his back, and although Otto Porter also wanted to hold on, he still couldn't bear it. was resisted by Li Feng in two steps, and when Wall came up quickly to grab.

Li Feng turned around and passed the basketball to Luo Teng, who was out of the open space outside, and Luo Teng made a two-point jumper on the wing and grabbed two points back.

The Pelicans also scored two points after emphasizing the intensity of their offense. At 62:58, the difference was slightly widened again.

The Wizards used to play impatiently, but now that they have narrowed the point difference, they are not impatient. Wall also came up to connect with Caron Butler first, he took the ball on the wing, and Caron Butler ran a curl from the bottom corner to the top of the arc, and he passed the ball to Kaloon Butler.

Caron Butler took the ball here, and the Pelicans immediately pounced to defend, and Caron Butler did not spare his strength at this time, but took the ball "Bang Bang" and dribbled two steps in a row to suppress the Pelicans' restricted area, and then passed the ball out to Billus.

Wall then sprinted to the basket and drew two fouls from Knight.

Both Wall and Caron Butler are playing aggressively at this time, and they don't have too good opportunities to shoot at all, they just come up and hit your basket.

In terms of the ability of Wall and Kaloon Butler, the impact under the basket is also very strong, and Knight immediately paid the price.

went to the free throw line, Wall hit both free throws, and the Wizards still struggled again.

The game is grappling, this is not falling into the rhythm of the Pelicans again, and the Pelicans are advancing quickly.

Li Feng received the ball to attract the bag, and then immediately made a pass to the ground, and the basketball went to Gasol, who was in the empty position on the bottom line, and Gasol wiped the board under the basket and scored two points quickly.

The rhythm became about the same rhythm in the second quarter, and at this time Van Gundy was a little happy, and he was not afraid of the Wizards by beating him like this.

Van Gundy thought well, but as soon as the Wizards came over, Wall immediately showed his passing skills, he came up to the bottom corner first, and the Wizards passed the ball to Wall's hand in a circle.

Wall took the ball and glanced up, then the ball went down the baseline to the hands of Caron Butler, who received the ball and wiped the board to score two points.

This offense is not earth-shattering, but it is played extremely smoothly and naturally, as if the Pelicans' defense does not exist at all.

The feeling is harmonious. It's wonderful that Wall has finally shown his qualities as a super-guard. Wall won't be a child of the wind like Nash, nor will he be as treacherous as Kidd, it's this supernatural feeling in Wall, it's unpretentious at all, but at that time it's irresistible to reason.

62-60, the Wizards were in hot pursuit, the Pelicans could only continue to struggle, Knight came over to see that Wall's defense was not good this round, and he immediately took advantage of the situation to attack the basket. The previous Wizards defended mediocre. In this case, Knight is sure to score.

But now in the third quarter, the Wizards are desperate, and Nene desperately assists in the defense back, interfering with Knight, and Knight misses a layup.

The Pelicans missed another round of offense, but the Pelicans missed. Gortat's baseline ball was quickly flicked out, and Otto Porter received the ball and passed it to Kaloon Butler, who was running wildly in the middle.

At this time, Caron Butler took the ball in the middle and attacked fiercely and quickly, with Caron Butler's strong body, he naturally squeezed away Luo Teng at once, squeezed away Luo Teng, and Caron Butler stretched his body in the air. Raised his hand to pick the blue and scored two points.

The Pelicans' own offense didn't work, but was turned into a counterattack by the Wizards. Such a counterattack was played, and the Wizards' home court was immediately cheered, because with the fast break of Caron Butler's counterattack. The Wizards finally leveled the score. The two teams played 62-62.

The Wizards finally caught up with the score, and once the score caught up, the morale of the Wizards before came immediately, and this was their home court after all.

In the midst of the mountain cheers of the Wizards' home fans, the Pelicans slowly advanced at this time. Hit by the Wizards on both ends of the floor, the Pelicans must have a counterattack at this time.

The Pelicans' counterattack must have been led by Li Feng, so at this time, Li Feng came over. It penetrated to the bottom line, and then Knight steadied it, and Li Feng immediately used the cover to run out to catch the ball.

At this time, the Pelicans were chased to this kind of Cheng dù, Li Feng received the ball and immediately dribbled from the flank, and reached the edge of the penalty area, and when he reached this position, Li Feng pulled up and made a jump shot. When the Wizards' players came over to block Li Feng, Li Feng faked a real pass, and the basketball went from high to low, and suddenly stuffed into the hands of Al Jefferson who was empty at the moment of the bottom line, Al Jefferson took the ball to wipe the board and shot, and the Pelicans also scored two points in the dogfight.

64-62, the Wizards immediately controlled the ball by Caron Butler, pressed the top of the arc, and waited for his teammates to come up, and Caron Butler immediately broke through with his feet.

Kalombbutler didn't use breakthroughs much before, he wasn't good at breaking, his speed was average, but today he was really desperate.

At this time, it was also a forced breakthrough, and Caron Butler's side forced a breakthrough, because the speed was relatively slow, and it was interfered by Al Jefferson who came back from the defense, and Caron Butler's first layup was missed.

But Caron Butler also has a big ass attribute, he is very good at the basket position, he doesn't shoot and he makes up for the blue, and the blue makes up the basketball into the Pelicans' basket.

The score is tied again!

64-64, at this time, Yang Yi said in China:

"The Wizards and the Pelicans have started to fight, but then from the perspective of the scene, the Wizards have the advantage because they are more determined! Every offense is fought with gritted teeth and desperately, but the Pelicans are not in this state yet! The Pelicans are not mentally prepared to die. ”

Although Yang Yi is tens of thousands of miles away from the court, he can still clearly feel the determination of the wizards at this time.

On the sidelines of Joan Barry, Mark Jones clearly felt that the Wizards were full of murderous aura at this time.

The Wizards are at the final moment, and they are indeed more motivated than the Pelicans.

The Pelicans also felt the other party's determination to kill, and the Pelicans still stabilized the situation at this time. Trying to stabilize the ball, the Pelicans came over and passed the basketball to Al Jefferson.

Al Jefferson took the ball hard this time before dribbling a step, Otto Porter's bag arrived, and in the case of being caught by a double, Al Jefferson rolled over and hooked his hand.

Al Jefferson had a good idea, but now the Wizards' defensive intensity is too much, and he misses the shot.

Once he missed the shot, the Wizards grabbed the rebound in the backcourt and immediately pushed it forward. (To be continued......)
