Chapter 621: The demeanor of a superstar

The American ball critics were lamenting the strong strength of this pair, and Su Qun also shouted:

"Beautiful, just beautiful!"

"People think the Spurs' system can make a lot of role players, but the Knicks have Li Feng and can make a shooter like Belineri play amazingly."

Su Qun was a little excited when he said it, and he inadvertently said something big, but now the fans are also excited, and no one cares what Su Qun said.

And when the Spurs looked at it, the Knicks made two shots, one three-pointer after another, and they had tied the score.

From 29 to 29, the game ended here, the pace of the game became faster, the outside shooting rate became higher, the rhythm became the rhythm of the Knicks, and then the Spurs really lost a qiē.

At this point, the keen Popovich immediately called a timeout, and the Spurs took this game very seriously and wanted to win this game.

Plan ahead, now the Spurs have to win the Knicks, and they have to give the Knicks a blow, so as not to be at a loss.

So Popovich immediately called a timeout to reorganize the team, and the Spurs must put defense first if they want to win, so the Spurs immediately re-emphasized defense, for a mature team like Spurs, the defensive tactics have matured, and there is little change, and the re-requirements are just more emphasized.

With an emphasis on defense, the Spurs also deployed interior offense and off-ball offense, both of which are strategic-level offense.

These two offenses are opened, and the Spurs' other offensive means are bound to open up.

The Spurs treated the Knicks very cautiously, and the first offense that came back after the timeout really sent the basketball to Duncan in the low post.

Although Duncan's number has not decreased sharply, his strength is indeed not as good as before, which is also a major reason for the Spurs' great decline in strength after that. But even so, Duncan is the most indispensable person for the Spurs, which is the same as Duncan's utility for the Spurs.

Now Duncan is taking the ball inside and facing Diop. Diop's defense of the rough brother Howard is okay, but there is no way to deal with Duncan, even in the face of Duncan who can't jump, Diop has no advantage.

Duncan took the ball and shook it from side to side, turned and threw it to score two points.

The Spurs came back in the second quarter, first attacking in the low post, holding the situation steady, and then immediately stepping up on the defensive end.

When the Knicks took the ball and faced the Spurs again, it was obvious that the Spurs' defensive intensity had increased again.

There's more physical contact, and the Spurs have more help and team defense. For example, a team like the Spurs, a team that can play chain defense, attaches great importance to defensive footwork and defensive coordination.

The whole team moved all over the body, and the whole team moved, which not only curbed Belineri's ball, but also made Li Feng very uncomfortable with the ball.

Li Feng took the ball and passed the ball to Livingston, Livingston's long-range three-point shot was also assisted by the Spurs, and the Knicks' offense was sniped down by the Spurs.

Once the Spurs are fully focused on the defensive side, it will be really difficult for the Knicks to attack. There is no team in the entire league that can score smoothly after the Spurs' defense has improved.

In response to the Spurs' chain defense, the Knicks made one substitution after another, changing formations, trying to break the Spurs' chain defense without using Li Feng. But the effect is not very good.

The Spurs are really old and spicy, the Knicks' Belinelli, Parsons, Jones. Although Cousins has good ability, he can't break the Spurs' chain defense.

At the end of the first half, the Knicks quietly trailed the Spurs by 4 points. The previous advantage is gone.

The game entered the second half, and the Knicks and Spurs were both very good at taking the lead and making efforts in the third quarter, and the situation of the game became even more confusing.

Entering halftime, there was still a lot of complaining in the Knicks' locker room.

Many young players complained that Spurs had too many small moves and complained that Spurs' style of play was dirty. Li Feng understands what these guys think, on weekdays, the young people of the Knicks are generally able to play smoothly, but when they encounter the defense of the Spurs, they are suddenly in a lot of trouble, and it is definitely right to complain at this time.

Li Fengtong's observation of the first half also realized that in fact, his teammates played very well in the first half. In the case that he basically did not attack, he was not pulled away by the Spurs, and he was able to calm down, which is already very commendable.

Being able to do this can show that the potential of this lineup is still extremely huge, but with the current strength of the team, it is difficult to win the Spurs in a mediocre way, very difficult!

So Li Feng felt that he should have shot himself in the second half, and he had to shoot too, the same as Popovich thought.

For the future, the Knicks must go all out to win today's game, lay the foundation for the future, and let everyone come, the Knicks' tactics are successful, and the Knicks will not be stopped by any team.

Li Feng didn't say anything on his face at this time, but he had already made up his mind in his heart.

Also in the Spurs' locker room, the Spurs also felt that they had to exert their strength in the second half.

The Spurs have always been accustomed to playing in the backcourt, especially in the third quarter, and now the battle is so stalemate, and the Knicks are so difficult to deal with, the Spurs must complete the battle within a certain period of time, otherwise the time will drag on for a long time, and the Spurs will also be afraid of the Knicks' offensive ability.

In the locker room on the American side, Kenny Smith also said at this time:

"In the first half, the Knicks and the Spurs played an even match, but on the Knicks' side, Li Feng barely scored in the first half and did not contribute anything. The Spurs did not give their best to attack and defend, and both teams played cautiously. ”

"The Spurs have certainly shown their old side, with a near-perfect team defense and a clear deal-in-it. But what the Knicks showed surprised us a little, especially the two-man cooperation of Belineri and Li Feng, the instant flash showed extremely sharp offensive ability, if you add some other players to it, it will be an unbreakable offensive method. ”

Charles Barkley also said at this time:

"Indeed! I didn't expect the Knicks to make it to the Finals after losing Dragic, and now this Knicks are full of energy and terrible, even if they lose today. It will also be one of the strongest teams in the league. ”

At this time, everyone has reached the huge potential of the Knicks, and the attention is also attracted to this energetic team.

Yang Yi also asked Su Qun in the broadcast studio in China:

"Su Qun, how did you play in the first half of the Knicks today? What is the situation of the game. ”

Su Qun said word by word at this time:

"Although the first half of the day was a wonderful game, both teams were still trying. The Big Three on the Spurs' side did not combine to attack, and Li Feng on the Knicks' side barely touched the ball. Neither team has yet to give it their all. ”

"But even so, the game was exciting enough, because the Knicks were old enough, the Knicks had great potential, and the Knicks gave us a lot of surprises in today's game. Belineri's sharp three-pointer, Parsons' physical, Jones' steady. The entire Knicks are now full of talent. ”

"But Li Feng, the most critical figure for the Knicks, hasn't started yet, so the most exciting part of this game has definitely not started yet."

Su Qun said that his American counterparts had the same goal, and after a short break, the second half of the game began.

The game opened with a ball from the Spurs, and the Spurs' first attack in the second half started with Ginobili's off-ball tactics.

Ginobili used the baseline cover to run quickly to successfully attract the attention of the Knicks, and then when Li Feng also went out to chase Ginobili. Ginobili turned around and passed the basketball to Duncan in the low post, and Duncan flicked the ball and drew the Knicks' attention to the basket. At this time, the Knicks' defense was a little messy, and Duncan passed the ball to Leonard outside, who calmly shot a three-pointer.

"Huh!"

At the beginning of the second half, Leonard scored a three-pointer from a three-point range.

The score of the two teams became 57-50. The Knicks trailed by seven points.

In the second half, the Spurs finally came out of their strength, and the Big Three connected to form a powerful offensive momentum, which gave the Knicks a clear signal from the beginning. We're going to make a push.

The Knicks did not lose to the other party at this time, and Monroe passed the basketball to Li Feng in the backcourt.

Li Feng took the ball and pushed forward, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry, and Li Feng slowly advanced up.

When Leonard, who defended Li Feng, slipped a little. Li Feng's body was sideways, and he suddenly accelerated and rushed into the opponent's penalty area.

Li Feng suddenly accelerated so much that he caught the opponent off guard, and when Duncan saw Li Feng coming, he hurriedly came up to help, but his speed was not the same as when he was young, and his feet were a little slower.

Li Feng spread his wings, flew up, spread his arms, and a tomahawk smashed into the head of the spur.

"Bang!"

The Spurs opened with three people, but Li Feng made a slam dunk as soon as he made a move.

Once Li Feng succeeded in this button, the huge Madison Square Garden suddenly became in a commotion.

"Boom, boom!"

The cheers came like a tidal wave.

Li Feng is the master of this court, and once he plays out, he immediately ignites the atmosphere of the whole court.

Once the atmosphere at home is up, the players on the pitch and on the sidelines are also immediately imposing, and the passion of the players is also coming all at once.

Li Feng's role in playing soy sauce finally made a move, which also indicated that Li Feng was going to make a move in the second half.

Madison Square Garden roared with joy, Li Feng looked at the Spurs players with defiant eyes, and the two teams finally entered a life-and-death fight.

Li Feng dunked, and Su Qun's side was immediately excited:

"Li Feng made a move, he finally made a move."

Su Qun was excited, and Kenny Smith was also extremely excited:

"Li Feng's dunk is so beautiful, the Spurs, who are known as the strongest defenders, have no reaction, this is the appearance of a superstar, no matter how strong the defense is, it is nothingness in front of the superstar."

Li Feng's sudden shot really shocked the audience, and also alerted the Spurs, and Li Feng finally came.

The team was suddenly hit hard, and the momentum of Madison Square Garden was also burning like a flame, and Duncan, who liked to be silent, hurriedly jumped out and shouted at his teammates: "It's okay, it's my fault, I'm slow!" In the future I will be faster, no problem, no problem at all, and play our basketball. ”

Duncan came out to take the initiative to take responsibility and stabilize the team, which is the spirit of leadership.

The Spurs roared at Duncan. Slowly stabilized dìng, stabilized the situation, Duncan immediately led by example, he rushed to the Knicks' penalty area to ask for the ball, to force Monroe.

It's time to show the Spurs' awareness, if I want to be steady, I can be steady. Parker hoisted the basketball to Duncan from the outside.

After the operation, Duncan really couldn't jump, but the reason why Duncan is Duncan is not only because he has a good body, but also because Duncan has an oak-like heart.

Duncan was determined. The fighting spirit is extremely strong, and he hit Monroe's body fiercely with the ball, dead, dead!

This kind of ruthlessness in Duncan is exactly what Monroe lacks, Monroe's feet are a little soft, and Duncan immediately turned over and scored two points with a layup.

Duncan, who scored two points, also roared at Li Feng, Duncan was provoking Li Feng, and he was also demonstrating to Li Feng that I am not old yet. I can still do it.

Duncan used his actions to stabilize the team, and this is the value of superstars.

Li Fengyi Duncan really competes with himself, if he doesn't respond. Win or lose after the game, Duncan will definitely spray himself. I can't give Duncan this kind of truth, so Li Feng continued to get the ball in the backcourt.

Slowly and leisurely arrived at the Spurs' half, Li Feng was still slow and leisurely at this time. But Spurs didn't dare to let up.

The defensive attention is all on Li Feng, Leonard is delayed in front, and Duncan is ready to come up to help defend at any time. On the other side, Ginobili was still preparing to intercept Li Feng's passing route.

The defensive attention of the three people was on Li Feng, and when Li Feng encountered this kind of resident, he did not hit hard, but immediately signaled Cousins to come up as a cover with his eyes, and Cousins rushed over and crossed a little at the top of the arc.

Li Feng took a big stride to the left, at this time Duncan hurriedly moved to this side, Leonard went to delay Cousins' air cut, and at the moment of conversion and movement, Li Feng held Duncan and took the ball up and directly shot a quick three-point shot.

Duncan stretched out his hand and covered Li Feng's face, but it was useless, Li Feng's three-point shot was extremely sharp, and he crossed Duncan's fingertips and smacked Li Feng's three-point long-range shot was also a hit rate.

"Whoa!"

Li Feng performed again, and the atmosphere in Madison Square Garden suddenly rose, and the whole stadium was enthusiastic.

Li Feng was the first to buckle violently, and then to face. Shoot three points, and the superstar temperament that has not been seen for a long time erupts all at once.

And compared to Duncan's basket score, Li Feng's Yan. Shooting three-pointers and dunks is undoubtedly more divine and more ornamental.

Li Feng broke out all of a sudden, and the Spurs immediately felt the pressure.

The Knicks scored consecutive points in the second quarter, and Li Feng came back in the third quarter, if there was another person in the fourth quarter, the Spurs would not be able to stop even the championship team.

In the cheers of the audience, Li Feng shouted at Duncan unrelentingly, wanting to score with Duncan.

Can Duncan, a power forward, score against Li Feng? If he was a few years younger, Duncan might not have a problem, at that time Duncan's movement range was much larger than it is now, but now Duncan is more focused on a defensive player, and it seems a little unkind for Li Feng to score with Duncan.

Duncan naturally ignored Li Feng's unreasonable request, and the Spurs chased after the Knicks' ass and killed him.

At this time, the two teams played 58-59, and the Knicks were one point away from catching up again. The Spurs came back and their singles executor, Leonard, finally got the basketball on the wing.

Leonard, who took the ball on the flank, faced Li Feng, and also had a new reflection, Leonard and Li Feng had no effect in the first half, and now Leonard understands after half-time reflection that he can't play with Li Feng's body, and if he wants to play, he can play with a sense of rhythm.

Knowing this, Leonard did not play hard with the ball, but gave full play to his ball control ability and sense of rhythm, dangled in front of Li Feng, and then dribbled to the left, and when Li Feng pasted up, Leonard turned around and shot blue from a distance.

Leonard's movements are not very difficult, but Leonard has a body, and if he uses a little bit of rhythm, Li Feng can't defend properly.

Leonard gave Li Feng under his armpit, and the basketball brushed lightly on the rebound, and the ball went in.

Li Feng scored continuously, and the Spurs were not to be outdone, and they played very well. The game entered the third quarter, and the game really became more and more exciting, and both teams played beautiful offenses.

It's been a long time since the Madison Square Garden home fans have seen Li Feng's performance, and now Li Feng has finally made a shot, so once the ball is switched to the Knicks' side.

The fans immediately chanted Li Feng's name: "Li Feng, Li Feng, Li Feng!" "The fans all hope that the ball will go to Li Feng's hands, let Li Feng attack, and let Li Feng end the game.

In this case, the Knicks naturally passed the basketball to Li Feng's hands again, and the situation on the court was also clear to Li Feng, which was an opportunity to boost morale. If you win in a row, the morale of the team will definitely rise.

Li Feng also slowly approached the opponent's half court after receiving the ball, and Li Feng had already scored 5 points in a row, scoring in two aggressive ways. So this time the Spurs are wrapping Li Feng in advance.

Before Li Feng entered the three-point line, Duncan and Leonard wrapped up towards Li Feng together.

The Spurs packed early, first to let Li Feng pass the ball, but Li Feng faced the double bag, but it was a coquettish back dribble, and suddenly threw it to the middle, when Duncan and Leonard came up, Li Feng pulled the basketball back with one hand, and it was another back dribble.

Li Feng seemed to be a wavering tumbler, dribbling behind two backs in a row, swaying back and forth, swishing twice, and the two difficult dribbles directly shook off Leonard and drilled behind Duncan. (To be continued......)
