Chapter 976: Encounter the Spur Again

The Pelicans still had the ball, and Corey passed the ball to Turner, who continued to maintain his frantic impact with the resentment just now, knocking away his defender Staskes and rushing to the basket, jumping in the air to avoid Thompson's block and send the ball into the hoop.

Van Gundy waved his fist strongly, and Li Feng and others took the order, which was an order to fight a defensive battle.

The Kings were still immersed in the rhythm of the efficient offense in the first half, but Darren Collisson, who was on the ball and attacked, sensed the pressure from the opponent, although Corey let Darren Collison dribble the ball to the three-point line, but he was always in the passing route of Darren Collisson, that is, he used his excellent anticipation ability to block Darren Collisson's organization.

Darren Collison passed the ball to Stasks, who had a strong breakthrough skills, pulled the ball to his shoulders and tried it, and then rushed to the basket with his feet.

Turner didn't intercept, he glanced back to see Li Feng's position, and squeezed Staskes on the flank, forcing the latter to change the predetermined breakthrough route and follow Turner's plan.

Staskes broke through hard but was simple-minded, he only felt that although Turner was pressing him, the breakthrough route was very spacious, so he ran hard, and when he didn't feel right, there was no turning back, Li Feng blocked his way in the front, and Turner completed the bag in the back.

Thompson hurriedly came up to answer, and Staskes' passing route was cut off again, and Li Feng blocked in front of him. There was no way, Staskes forced him to jump and shoot, Turner quietly bumped into him and made him a point slower, Li Feng jumped up in the air and slapped the ball down for him.

The two worked well together, one blocked, and the other jumped up and received the ball and launched a fast counterattack.

The Kings played fast-break and defended fast-break counterattacks, but Turner's impact was too strong. Guy couldn't keep up with him, and Turner was like a small steel cannon, stunned to get a layup on Guy.

Darren Collison frowned, he ran forward with the ball, and it began to become difficult to direct teammates to get into position, because the Pelicans were man-marking, the Pelicans players were chased badly, Staskes came out to answer, and after getting the ball, Turner squeezed him again, this time the Canadian learned to be savvy. Hurry up and pass the ball to Guy.

Granger used his violent defense to deal with Guy, when he was young and uninjured, Guy was nicknamed the grace of violence, and he liked to pass the opponent in one step and then use his strong and powerful body to press the opponent to give way, but now he is thirty-five or sixteen years old, with knee and ankle injuries, and he was pressed by Granger, and he had no choice but to pass the ball back to Darren Collison There was really no chance.

Darren Collison looked at the time for less than ten seconds, and Corey was still holding him back with his arms outstretched. Can only pass to the interior Landry, who plays against Thornton and has an advantage in strength and height.

Darren Collison hoped that Landry would rise to prominence, but Landry disappointed Darren Collisson. Li Feng's block and Turner's dunk just now hit his confidence and made him unable to give up, he wanted to get a hot potato after he got the ball, and he wanted to pass the ball when he looked around left and right.

But time is running out. Darren Collison roared:

"Knock the idiot behind you, dunk!"

Landry subconsciously crashed backwards, and Thornton was not ready for a confrontation. Landry hurriedly did as Darren Collison commanded when he got his chance, his arms raised in the air, ready to dunk.

A sturdy figure flew up from the flank, Li Feng had been paying attention to the confrontation between the two, Landry jumped together, he jumped up and came with a big hat from the flank, and pressed the ball down again.

Gay followed up in time, he picked up the ball first, Turner wanted to steal, only to get a foul and the Kings possessed the ball.

Darren Collison took a deep breath, he hadn't rested since the beginning of the game, his whole body was wet with sweat, he wiped his palms on the soles of his shoes, and launched a fast attack after taking the ball, Thompson came up to cover and then ran back, Li Feng followed Thompson, Darren Collison passed the ball, but Thompson shot after receiving the ball, and he suffered too much on Li Feng.

Thompson hit, Darren Collison bit his lip, when did they score so hard? Last season they were the league's most offensive firepower, but why did they suddenly become so obscure in attack?

The Kings also want to strengthen their defense, but they are really not the material for defense, and there are more problems after the same pressing, Corey took advantage of Granger's cover cross-cut and then ran back from Staskes, Guy changed defenses, Staskes made up defenses, Darren Collison was still chasing defense, and one Corey actually involved the strength of the three of them.

Corey passed to Turner, who hit the basket when he got the ball, Li Feng blocked Landry to clear the way for him, only Thompson came up to make up for the defense, but Turner passed the ball to Thornton, allowing the empty latter to easily come to the mid-range shot.

There was a slight commotion in the Energy Balance Center, and the people who were willing to pay to watch the game were real fans, who could read the game, and saw that the home team was in crisis, and some die-hard fans did not want to see the team being slaughtered, so they left the stadium gloomily, taking advantage of the fact that the roads around the stadium were not blocked and went home first.

This scene inspired Darren Collison's arrogance, and there was still more than a section to go, and they were only about ten points behind, and every qiΔ“ was salvageable.

Darren Collison chose to take the initiative, he relied on his strong individual breakthrough ability, and after two consecutive rhythmic changes of direction, he threw off Corey and saw Landry stuck Li Feng, in order to boost the team's morale, he decided to play this ball more safely, so he did not stop the jump shot, but threw it into the penalty area.

Darren Collison was not wrong before, Landry did jam Li Feng, but he couldn't restrict the latter forever, it was unnecessary for Li Feng not to compete with him, but seeing Darren Collison continue to break through, Li Feng began to grab the position.

Ran to the left and then turned around and ran from the right side, Landry's figure moved Li Feng bypassed him, and at this time he happened to stand with Darren Collison who was jumping and throwing, and seeing Li Feng appear in front of him, Darren Collisson's face suddenly changed.

Syllable!

Cover mercilessly!

Many old fans covered their eyes in pain, and then began to leave the stadium in despair, and the number of people leaving the stadium increased, which was a rare scene in the energy balance center.

In fact. Fans leave the court not because Li Feng has repeatedly blocked, but they can't see hope in the team, the current Kings are getting farther and farther away from returning to the Webb era, the young Pelicans are a terrible roadblock, not to mention the old strong team Spurs, Mavericks, Lakers, Pelicans, can they withstand it?

Mike Malone called a timeout with a gloomy face, now it has nothing to do with tactics, the strength of the team is so ......

Coming back from the timeout, the Kings reintroduced Cousins. Mike Malone is still going to take a gamble after all, and he wants to bet that Cousins can turn the tide.

The Kings are already trailing the Pelicans by 13 points from 79 to 92. After returning from the timeout, Cousins relied on the accumulated body to crush Henson, who came off the bench, to score a layup to help the team catch up with two points, 81-92.

Li Feng and Henson did not enter the restricted area, Cousins' defense was useless, and the Pelicans players were cruising outside the restricted area, and after covering each other, Li Feng jumped and shot, hit!

Darren Collison passes Thompson. The latter was a little anxious to see that the score difference remained unchanged, and after holding the ball, he took advantage of Cousins' cover to directly enter the penalty area, and then Li Feng squeezed Cousins away from Cousins, and he and Thompson jumped face to face at the same time. The little prince of the forbidden area has been sealed again!

Cousins picked up the ball and made a quick shot, but the ball hit the iron, Li Feng turned over and grabbed the rebound, and when he blocked before, Turner thought that Corey would grab the ball so he went on a fast break. As a result, he ran through half the court, and when he looked back, it was Cousins who grabbed the ball, so Staskes, who was defending him, hurried back to support, but Cousins made a quick shot and Li Feng grabbed the rebound. In this way, Li Feng came to a full-court pass, and there was only one Turner in the entire frontcourt.

Kings fans thought Turner was going to have a dunk, and the players thought so too, so no one desperately chased the defense, but when Turner saw that there was no one around, he actually ran to the three-point line and stopped, aiming at the hoop and then came a three-pointer!

What's even cheaper is that the three-point shot is made!

The Pelicans' defense is getting stronger and stronger, but fortunately, Cousins' play can involve a lot of Li Feng's energy, and Stoudemire was freed up to take advantage of the opportunity to shoot, and then he played with Darren Collisson, and the two returned two consecutive passes by Darren Collison to hit a shot, and by the end of the third quarter, the Kings were still behind the Pelicans by double digits at 85-97.

In the fourth quarter, the Kings set off a wave of counterattacks, Staskes broke through the Pelicans' defense, entered the restricted area and threw a shot, Li Feng jumped through Cousins, and was stunned to press on the ball and shoot it, this strong block suddenly made the rhythm of the Kings' counterattack chaotic.

The Pelicans counterattacked quickly, this time it was Corey who played the scoring guard, he used the speed advantage to quickly attack, but after entering the frontcourt free throw area, he began to slow down, and after adjusting his pace, his planned Darren Collison also caught up, the two were entangled, and Corey played a 2+1.

Seeing that Corey can still play tactics on fast break, Mike Malone is cold all over his body, and if Corey strengthens his defense under Van Gundy's tutelage, he will definitely become a strong opponent on the outside of other teams in the league!

Corey made a free throw, and the Kings trailed the Pelicans by 15 points at 85-100.

Darren Collison was ruthless, he scored 6 points in a row regardless of his crazy breakthrough, during which the Pelicans shot twice and hit the iron, and Darren Collison was finally caught by Li Feng again when he broke through for the fourth time, and it was another block!

This scene made the Kings fans crazy, what happened to Li Feng today, what happened to him with the Aegis system installed on his hands, the King's attack was destroyed too much by him.

Corey organized a positional battle, and Li Feng turned around with his back to Cousins and hit a hook shot, and the Pelicans led the Kings by 13 points 104-91.

Later, Darren Collison and Thompson planned an aerial relay to dunk, Li Feng blocked Thompson and caused Darren Collison to make a passing error, the Pelicans regained the ball, Corey took the ball to the front court to direct his teammates to run, Corey ran past him, he handed the ball to Corey from behind to block Staskes, Corey jumped up with the ball behind Corey, Corey flew the knife to reappear in the NBA, and scored three points.

Frustrated by the 16-point deficit, Mike Malone beckoned for a timeout, before Darren Collison, who had played 41 minutes in the game, was substituted and McCallum came off the bench. It also announced that the Kings had officially abandoned the game.

Van Gundy is past the age of the stunned young man who seized the opportunity to slaughter the opponent, and he also replaced Turner and Corey from the court, and the lineup of Henson, Kelly, Jordan Crawford, and Marshall came on, but Li Feng is still on the court, because he has now won nine blocks, and only one block is needed to get the first triple-double of the season.

Li Feng didn't let the fans who were expecting this triple-double wait for a long time, and McCallum missed a three-point shot later. Cousins grabbed the offensive rebound and tried to dunk, Li Feng seized the opportunity to shoot the ball down, and then Van Gundy also replaced him off the court.

This scene made many Kings fans hate the root of their teeth, isn't this bullying? Isn't this a clear display in the brushing jΓΉ? But they have nothing to say, there are not many people who can brush a triple-double with a block, except for Li Feng, with Garnett's aging and Howard's incompetence, there is no one else in the league's active players.

"Congratulations on your victory. The next meeting won't be so easy. ”

Although Darren Collison lost but was very personable, after the game was over, he stepped forward and hugged Li Feng, patted him on the back and said,

"Come on. You've started to dominate the game and I'd love to see the faces of other teams when they face you, it must be interesting. ”

Li Feng eats soft and not hard, since people save face. He was too embarrassed to make it too stiff, so he complimented:

"Thank you for the compliment, Darren. You're almost in time for Paul, and you're not interested in coming to New Orleans! ”

In fact, this is not a compliment, it should be said that Darren Collison does deserve such praise today: 34 points, 15 assists, 5 rebounds, and 4 steals, he has done everything a guard can do.

Darren Collison laughed, he shrugged and said:

"Maybe someday, but not in five years, or you'll come to Sacramento?"

Laughing with Darren Collison Li Feng walked towards the others, Thompson didn't deal with him at all, just barely high-fived him and left immediately, not even a word left, Li Feng didn't like him either, what the hell, didn't he just follow Darren Collison to get a little light? Look at your numbers, 14 points, 5 rebounds, 1 block, and an All-Star starter-caliber forward.

I can't blame Thompson for being narrow-minded, mainly every time he plays against Li Feng, the latter hits him too hard: Li Feng scored 41 points, 25 rebounds and 10 blocks today!

This is the first 40+25+10 in the NBA in the last decade.

Cousins didn't play well, but it wasn't that he had a problem with his ability or attitude, but that he was really fat, and he was plagued by declining physical fitness and injuries, and he played 28 minutes in this game, scoring 18 points and 8 rebounds, and his efficiency was already good.

Li Feng thought that he wouldn't talk to himself with the temper of a kitten, but when he walked over, Cousins hugged him directly, laughed and said:

"Li Feng, you are very lucky, if I lose another 5 pounds, I will definitely beat you to tears today."

Hearing this, Li Feng shrugged his shoulders and said:

"I think so, too, you big fat cat."

Cousins grinned, pretending to be angry:

"Feng, you hateful fellow, by the way, do we still have a chance to be teammates, or you will be the king!"

Li Feng shrugged his shoulders again and said:

"In your state, I don't dare to ask for you to come to the Pelican, you better lose weight, little baby!"

The two of them lost a few words to each other, and finally began to leave, and before parting, Cousins suddenly grabbed him again, changed his expression from the previous hippie smile, and said quite sternly:

"Come on, brother, let's hold up the inside line of the alliance together!"

Li Feng nodded heavily and promised:

"I'm going to do it, and I'm going to get the NBA back to the time of the giants!"

The two high-fived and separated, and a reporter took a photo of this scene, one is a super center, the other is a super forward, and the two share the future of the league together.

……

The Pelicans are not a strong team, and then the Pelicans defeated the Bucks and Grizzlies, won 9 consecutive wins, and once again attacked 10 consecutive wins, not only that, the Pelicans occupied the first place in the West to lead the Spurs by one win, and the loss was quickly caught up by the Spurs.

The opponent of the ten-game winning streak is not another team. It's the old Western rival Spurs again, after the opening, Al Jefferson jumped vigorously and gave the racket to Corey, and the starter on Van Gundy today is Evan Turner, Turner has been in good shape recently, and has been focused on training by Van Gundy, Turner is still rushing forward quickly, but is still blocked by Parker.

Turner was stubborn, still tough to get over the ball and go to the basket, but the ball deflected off the basket under the smash of Duncan and Parker. Li Feng took a step back, and when the ball bounced up, he stomped on the ground and flew up directly, raised his hands above his head to grab the ball, and smashed it down without waiting for the landing, and won the violent dunk!

Duncan missed a backhand layup, Li Feng grabbed the rebound and passed to Turner to organize a fast-break counterattack, Turner rushed all the way to the basket and sent the ball into the hoop, and then, two seconds later, the Spurs themselves made a mistake. Parker was pressed by Turner and passed to Belinelli, but Belineri didn't expect Parker to pass the ball so early, and as a result, he didn't return to let the ball get off the court.

After that, Pau Gasol hit a pull-up jump shot, and the Pelicans started the game very smoothly. In less than 2 minutes, he took a 70-point lead.

Turner and Al Jefferson were particularly scrappy today, and for Li Feng and Pau Gasol, it was just an ordinary regular season game, and they were at peace.

They don't want to be number one in the West. Rather, he wants to destroy the pelicans and prove his strength.

Popovich called a timeout, and Ginoby, who came off the bench and came off the bench, scored the first two points for the Spurs with a pull-up jumper, but Gasol then hit a step-back shot. Li Feng even scored a self-throwing and self-stealing basket.

Obviously, compared with the Spurs, who are accustomed to introverting their temperament in their hearts, the Pelicans' desire for revenge is stronger, and the opening game is very vigorous.

But after that, the Spurs found a way to deal with it, suddenly strengthened their defensive intensity, launched 23 joint defense, the Pelicans declined, and the Spurs took the opportunity to narrow the score gap, Duncan, Ginobili, and Parker cooperated with the offense again and again to chase the score to 15-18.

There were two and a half minutes left in the first quarter, and the Pelicans launched the last counterattack of the first quarter, Li Feng was like a Raptors on the inside, hitting the charge and jumper to break through, and even scored 4 points with free throws, Al Jefferson received Kerry's assist in a pull-up jump shot, and then staged a good show of breaking through the dunk, so that the Pelicans played an 8-2 attack climax and led the Spurs 26-18.

In the second quarter, both sides did not have a high shooting percentage at the beginning, and the Spurs strengthened the encirclement of Li Feng, he can dunk, but he can't hook his hand and long shots, as long as he goes beyond the restricted area to shoot, then foul, no matter what, he can't let his hand feel hot.

After four minutes of the game, Li Feng grabbed the offensive rebound quickly, and then hit a sideways step back jumper to score the first sports score. Seeing this, the Spurs strengthened the encirclement and suppression, and Van Gundy immediately replaced Li Feng and began to play a small tactic, and Fan's running began.

In such a crucial battle, Van Gundy actually changed to the bench lineup, and he used Marshall and Jordan Crawford to control the backcourt! And this miracle has received a miracle effect, the Spurs are familiar with Turner, Li Feng, Corey, Gasol, but not Marshall and Jordan Crawford.

In this way, although the Pelicans replaced the main lineup, the advantage not only did not shrink, but expanded, Marshall came on the court with two consecutive three-point shots, and Jordan Crawford also scored 4 points through a breakthrough layup, so that the two combined to score 10 points.

Popovich saw that the opponent's athletic battle was excellent, and immediately strengthened his defense, in addition, taking advantage of Li Feng's absence, the Pelicans' backcourt combination was also poor, so he strengthened the impact on the basket, and the GDP attacked the restricted area again and again.

In this way, the Pelicans can't prevent the impact of GDP, Thornton and Henson are repeatedly misplaced, and Duncan plays handy. However, the Pelicans' outside line is still maintaining a brave play, and Marshall even played 3+1, so that the two sides started a tug-of-war, and no one can help anyone for a while.

But in this way, the Spurs can't stand it, because the Pelicans are playing now, but the bench lineup, the three big outside generals, Turner, Gasol and Corey, are all sitting on the bench!

In the last two minutes, Popovich replaced the GDP rest, and Van Gundy replaced the combination of Li Feng, Gasol, Turner and Cory, and for the four of them, the old man had only one request, go crazy attack!

After playing, Gasol continued Marshall's hot hand, and as soon as he got on the court, he made a jumper and made a three-pointer, but the Spurs' bench also appeared two points, and Danny Green hit a series of emergency stops, and surprised the Pelicans with a series of unreasonable mid-range shots, and at one point the difference between the two teams narrowed to 5 points.

Fortunately, there is no luck in the battle on the inside, it is all a trick and a style of hard work, Li Feng hit Split with his back to make it 2+1, and then he blocked Danny Green and Belineri's shots in a row, Corey followed to assist Turner, and then he hit consecutive shots, and finally opened the score again. (To be continued......)
