Chapter 673 540-degree turn, super-divine rhythm
George now asks for the ball right away from George Hill as soon as he's in the Pelicans' half.
Although the Pacers' offense was not set up at this time, George was the core, and George Hill had a good relationship with George, so he immediately passed the basketball to George's hands.
George's posture of holding the ball and threatening moved slightly, and Li Feng's nerves immediately tensed.
George's offensive means are too much, and Li Feng is difficult to predict, so he can only rely on his feelings to defend.
Just when Li Feng was guessing how George would fight, George gave him an answer, and George turned around and leaned over to Li Feng.
George's meaning by doing this is obvious, you just hit me on the back, and I'm going to hit you on the back now.
As soon as Li Feng saw George coming, he was immediately happy, straightened his chest and squeezed George outward.
Compared with pure strength and weight, George suffered, but George's technique was very comprehensive, and he suddenly felt that Li Feng had a lot of strength, and he immediately used the action of controlling the ball as a cover to shake it and moved a step towards the bottom line.
George completely relied on his feelings this time, dodging Li Feng's defensive focus, and waited until Li Feng made up for it and wanted to defend.
George took advantage of the situation and made a step-back jumper, and Li Feng had no chance to form a defense at all. Watch George easily put the basketball into the Pelicans' hoop.
George got his revenge, and Pacers coach Vogel didn't say anything on the bench, just there the old god was watching the game.
Li Feng suffered a loss from George, and he is also a character of revenge, since you George took the initiative to provoke me.
Then I can't afford to lose, so Li Feng arrived in the Pacers' half, and he also actively ran to seek to attack with the ball.
At this time, it happened that it was more difficult for the Pelicans to shoot others, so in the end, the basketball fell into Li Feng's hands again.
Li Feng took the ball on the baseline and ate George directly with his back, George understood the strength of Li Feng's back, and this time he immediately became more careful.
And Bill Wharton, who was watching the game in the commentary seat, saw Li Feng's fierceness. When he came up, he and George had a single article two or three times, and he immediately said:
"Li Feng, this guy is now going head-to-head with George. George backs him and he backs George, and if these two guys can fight today, the game will be good. β
Now that the Pacers are definitely ahead, Bill Wharton naturally hopes that Li Feng and George can create some sparks to make the game more intense.
Li Feng picked up the ball on the baseline and wanted to replicate the success of his last attack, when he found his rhythm and suddenly bumped into George. He wanted to crack a gap.
But he didn't expect that George was a cunning defender, and he had been paying attention to Li Feng for a long time.
When Li Feng exerted his strength, his body immediately flashed, unloading Li Feng's strength, Li Feng himself was almost dodged by himself, and Li Feng leaked a flaw like this.
George hurriedly came up and wanted to steal, and Li Feng just took advantage of this opportunity to throw the basketball towards the basket. Then there was a shout.
Li Feng came to cheat and foul again! However, George, it was indeed too obvious to grab the ball just now.
Now that the Pacers are still absolutely ahead, the referees can't possibly want the game to turn into garbage time so early, so he came up and gave George a foul. sent Li Feng to the free throw line again, George is the absolute darling of the Consec Arena, at this time Li Feng and George had this controversial ball, and suddenly there was a burst of boos on the sidelines.
Li Feng walked to the free throw line. Or two free throws and one hit.
In this game, Li Feng and George were about to fight, but at this time, Vogel stood up and arranged a defense.
He asked Stephenson to defend Li Feng. Don't expose George to the Pelicans' firepower on the defensive end.
Vogel just wanted to win the Pelicans cleanly, and he didn't want anything to happen. This defensive set-up is bound to disappoint the fans, but it is much more secure for the team.
After Li Feng's free throw, it was immediately the Pacers' turn to attack. The Pacers now have a clear lead over the Pelicans and are playing with no effort at all.
At this time, the Pacers themselves are relaxed, the Pacers are such a team, they are ruthless enough when facing strong teams, but they are always not ruthless enough when facing weak teams, they can't kill people all at once, they like to play slowly, and get the victory in the last force.
Now the Pacers have made this mistake again, and they come over and play very casually, and they don't hit the basketball.
Li Feng grabbed the rebound under the basket, he turned around and ran quickly towards the Pacers' halfcourt, since the position can't beat people, let's hurry up and play two fast breaks.
Li Feng had this in mind, but now that George is gone, the defender has replaced Stephenson.
This year is Stephenson's contract year, and he has also begun to deliberately brush up on jΓΉ and perform deliberately.
He just saw Li Feng and George attacking, and he wanted to come up and give Li Feng a little bit of power. So as soon as he saw that Li Feng was about to attack with the ball, he immediately came up and stuck to Li Feng, up and down, wanting to give Li Feng a dismount and break Li Feng's ball.
Li Feng was running wildly, and Stephenson came up with him to make these messes, which suddenly made Li Feng feel quite annoyed.
This defense is too annoying, Li Feng is not the kind of person who can endure it, he was made angry by Stephenson, he secretly crossed his shoulders and hit Stephenson's chest at once.
Immediately slammed Stephenson into his chest, took a step back, and then fell to the ground with a slight performative nature to fight for a foul.
But the referee didn't pay attention to him at all, and Li Feng ran directly in front of Stephenson with the ball and scored two points directly on the layup.
This time, Stephenson was also depressed!
It hurt so much that the referee ignored him.
Li Feng's hands are so black! With this kind of secret trick to deal with himself, Stephenson was quite unhappy at the moment, and he also wanted to find an opportunity to fix Li Feng!
The game continued into the seventh minute of the first quarter, and Stephenson finally found an opportunity, and Li Feng happened to help defend when he made a layup.
Encountering this kind of opportunity, Stephenson did not hesitate to use the same trick with Li Feng, and he also bumped into Li Feng with his shoulders cross.
But what he didn't know was that Li Feng exploded with all his strength at the moment when Stephenson was about to collide with him, so Stephenson was tragic.
It was as if he had hit Roshan all at once, and he stumbled under his feet and walked!
Stephenson walked, and the basketball was handed over to the Pelicans, and Stephenson was finally honest at this time.
Li Feng won the confrontation against Stephenson on the court. Suddenly, it couldn't fundamentally help the team.
Because he didn't feel good today, he made two free throws and missed a lot of shots.
In this case, although Li Feng played very hard, he could only make the team's score not let the Pacers pull away too much. He couldn't catch up with the Pacers, and when the Pacers saw the Pelican's situation, their laziness also came up, and they used half of their strength to play slowly with the Pelican, and they were not in a hurry to beat the Pelican to death on the spot.
In this way, the longevity of the game has become Li Feng's desperate struggle. The Pacers played with ease, but the Pelicans couldn't catch up.
Seeing this situation, Bill Wharton sighed with emotion:
"Today, without Millsap, the Pelicans' tactics are missing, which is different from the Knicks, it can be seen that the Pelicans play overall basketball, but the overall basketball also has disadvantages, and the gap between the Pelicans and the Pacers is still too big. It takes luck for the Pelicans to win a game like this, but obviously luck wasn't on the Pelicans' side today. β
In this way, the game became a difficult chase for the Pelicans and Li Feng, and an easy game for the Pacers.
Li Feng played very hard in the first quarter. But by the end of the first quarter, the margin had not narrowed.
It's easy to destroy a player's confidence with such hard work and despair. But in the second quarter, Li Feng still struggled hard, although his hand was still not good. Although he is still fighting, he is fighting every round without missing a little bit.
Li Feng played desperately, and the result was that the Pacers did not pull the score away in the second quarter.
In this way, the two teams entered the second half with a little depression, and the second half of the game began.
But there weren't many fans coming in the stadium. The first half of the game was a bit depressing, and the fans didn't really want to go back to the stadium to watch the game. They all ate and drank outside and refused to come back, and Bill Wharton was a little bored sitting on the commentary table:
"The Pelicans shot very low in the first half today! The Pacers weren't very excited either. After all, such a team is not enough for them. β
"Yes! But that's it. I think it's also a little dangerous, after all, this is the court, and if there is some emergency, the Pacers are not in trouble. β
Joanbari immediately continued.
"That's the price they should pay!"
It's obviously harder to count on Bill Wharton to lean toward the Pacers.
Liu Qiyu also came to the audience seat of the stadium today, and she was sitting in the box before, looking a little bored.
Sipping a beer while looking at the stadium.
She felt that Li Feng had always been very good, and today he was actually pressed and beaten by the walkers, which is really good! Thinking of this, Liu Qiyu smiled with her eyes.
She didn't come to watch the game today, watching Li Feng being abused, Liu Qiyu was also a little happy.
But on the court, Li Feng doesn't think so. He doesn't think he's working in vain, nor does he think his team can't win.
He is racing with the greatest enthusiasm and the greatest strength at all times to meet the challenge.
Li Feng is like this, the greater the pressure he faces, the higher his fighting spirit, his personality is a bit like a spring, the stronger he is suppressed, the stronger he rebounds. It won't be stuck because of the pressure, so it was suppressed for two sections.
Li Feng's heart was not discouraged, but high-spirited.
At this time, Li Feng returned to the court, the murderous spirit in his heart was activated again, and a wave of power flowed out of his heart, and the whole person seemed to explode.
On the other hand, the Pacers, who played the first half easily, couldn't breathe when they were still suppressed, and all of them slacked off.
When I got to the court, I was not prepared for a life-and-death battle, and I was desperate to play, and I was loose and sloppy when I played.
At this time, the second half of the game began, the Pelicans kicked off first, Li Feng started in the second half, this time he became a power forward, and Caron Butler played small forward.
Li Feng went to the court and found that it was David West who was opposite him, and he immediately knew that if he wanted to play in the low post, it was better to fly a kite outside.
So as soon as Li Feng started, he ran along the three-point line and used his speed advantage to offset David West's height advantage.
Li Feng's idea quickly made David West very unhappy, he was a big forward, and his steps were not satisfied, but let him run around with Li Feng, it was indeed impossible to keep up. was thrown away by Li Feng in three and two strokes. As soon as Li Feng was vacant, Arenas passed the basketball.
Li Feng received the basketball and was about to throw a three-pointer on the three-point line. Although his three-point shooting percentage has not been high recently, but now this obvious vacancy, not shooting three-pointers is sorry for basketball.
So Li Feng was very decisive and prepared to make a three-pointer, but Li Feng chose a slow shooting method at the beginning.
While he was preparing, David West happened to run back, and he saw that David West was about to cover his eyes.
Li Feng jumped violently into the air, trying to dodge David West's block.
Li Feng jumped up suddenly, the basketball in his hand flew out, and David West happened to arrive at this time. A slap hit Li Feng's arm.
Then the basketball fell into the Pacers' basket with a thud, and the referee's whistle sounded.
Li Feng played David West a 3+1 at the beginning, and suddenly the few fans in the Consec Arena inhaled for a while.
Li Feng felt very excited to score such a shot, because he knew that he didn't start the convulsion shot when he shot this three-pointer. It is purely based on his own hand to shoot, such a ball can be shot, which shows that his hand is back. When you feel your hand back, you can finally go on a killing spree.
Li Feng shouted excitedly, but David West was very depressed, he was rushing to block Li Feng just now. But he didn't expect that Li Feng could jump so high at the last moment. It was so high that Cheng DΓΉ was completely unexpected, so one of his own covers actually hit his wrist.
Li Feng went to the free throw line and hit the free throw. He scored 4 points steadily. In this way, Li Feng helped the Pelicans to close the score of the two teams at once, and the score of the two teams became 53-59, and the difference was only 6 points.
When the Pacers were in positional warfare, the abusive Pelicans were in pain. But once you start running fast breaks. Walkers are slow.
George Hill is a slow pace, Roy Hibbert and David West are big centers, and only George and Stephenson are faster on the Pacers' side.
But on the Pelicans' side, it was almost instantaneous. The four of them ran to the Pacers' halfcourt, a 4-on-2 situation, and Rose quickly passed the basketball to Li Feng's hands near the baseline as fast as possible.
Li Feng vacated the position, but unfortunately the shot was missed, and the basketball smashed into the basket and flew out a long way.
At this time, thanks to the large number of people running over the Pelicans, Li Feng flew over to grab the rebound, and then when he looked back and wanted to attack, the big troops behind the Pacers had already run back.
Once the Pacers' large force falls into position, it will only be more difficult to deal with, Li Feng was ruthless at this time, and suddenly an acceleration followed the bottom line towards the Pacers' basket and attacked.
The Pacers were not on a steady footing, and the alignment was not yet aligned, and Li Feng rushed over and Roy Hibbert moved quickly towards the baseline without closing the door.
Li Feng took advantage of such a little gap, and while the whole person was jumping, his body rotated, and he leaned away from Roy Hiebert with his back and wanted to shoot on the other side of the basket.
Li Feng played such a handsome move, and David West, who rushed up from behind, immediately thought that he had found an opportunity.
After he saw that Li Feng had rotated 360 degrees, he suddenly got up and wanted to cover Li Feng.
But he only guessed the first half of the matter correctly, and the second half was not at all what he thought.
Li Feng not only rotated 360 degrees in the air, after a turn, Li Feng was still spinning, just see Li Feng in the air like a spinning top, turn a circle and a half, and then turn his back to the basket, suddenly shot an anti-basket, wiped towards the Pacers' rebound, the ball turned 540 degrees.
Li Feng's basketball was worthy of a shot, David West misjudged, pounced on it and couldn't control it, and hit Li Feng's body all of a sudden.
The basketball brushed on the rebound, and the basketball fell into the Pacers' basket. At the same time, the referee immediately gave David West a foul.
His foul just now was so obvious that the referee couldn't cover it if he wanted to.
As the whistle sounded, the entire Consec Arena was full of exclamations, and Li Feng's 540-degree rotation was simply amazing.
In retrospect, there is something unbelievable and unpredictable, and this kind of show is the most popular at the Comsec Arena, and you must know that some of the fans who come to the Comsec Arena are Pacers, and many are tourists and sightseers.
As soon as Li Feng's performance came out, the Comsec Arena was in an uproar.
Joan Bari also said in the commentary seat:
"Oh! Li Feng's ball is simply incredible, and the angle he turns is not clear at all. β
"Yes! I would like to ask Li Feng now if his head is dizzy. β
Bill Wharton also chimed in.
Li Feng walked to the free throw line to make free throws, but at this time, something happened on the Pacers' side that shook the foundation of the game.
David West only had two fouls in the first two quarters, which would have been very gratifying. But now he started the third quarter with two fouls in quick succession, bringing his foul count to four. That's a dangerous number.
So Vogel immediately traded David West with Scola, and the Pacers' substitution was undoubtedly a boon for the Pelicans.
Otherwise, having David West and Roy Hibbert on the court at the same time would have them playing too much on the inside. Li Feng hit a penalty, and now he finally feels it, and this feeling of his own is finally back. (To be continued......)
