Henson was surprised that Lopez didn't have emotional fluctuations, and Lopez seemed to be a little too rational today, but Hollins saw this and felt that things were starting to turn in his favor.

Nets here Lopez has repeatedly made murderous opportunities, Li Feng also felt the difference of today's Nets, the first two Nets were manic, frivolous, fierce but not really cold to the bones, but now the Nets are facing so much pressure, the Nets have begun to mature, the whole team feels cold, straight to the goal and score.

The Nets are so cold, the Pelicans players are becoming more and more silent on the court, they quietly run, tight organization, the offensive core still starts from Li Feng, or from the high post, Henson didn't even go to the low post after he came, so he first covered Li Feng and Li Feng again and again.

After Henson covered Li Feng, Li Feng ran over to the low post, where the space had already been opened up by Kelly, and Li Feng followed Henson's cover and pulled to the side continuously.

Li Feng's original intention was to go to Granger's side and pass the basketball to Li Feng's hands, but for some reason, his feet suddenly slipped, his body stumbled and almost slipped a little, and the basketball was lost.

At this time, Li Feng was scared into a cold sweat, such a mistake was too low-level, so Li Feng hurriedly staggered and stretched out his arm to catch the ball, Jack, who defended Li Feng, did not expect Li Feng to make such a mistake, when he reacted to pick up the ball, Li Feng had already hugged the basketball with both hands.

This time Li Feng was a dead ball, Jack hurriedly pasted it up, straight in front of Li Feng, he just wanted to block Li Feng's passing route.

But at this time, Li Feng made an unexpected decision, he jumped up and made a shooting action, Jack saw that Li Feng still wanted to shoot three points at this time, and he hurriedly jumped up to block it.

At this time, Li Feng and Jack were bouncing, and Jack pounced. Li Feng was already taller than him, and he paused a little in the air, and when Jack and the audience thought that Li Feng was going to play, and when he dodged three points in the air, Li Feng shook the basketball after a pause for a moment, and threw it into Li Feng's hands at once

Li Feng was already waiting for Li Feng's basketball in the low post at this time, for many years, and after receiving the basketball, he immediately turned over towards the bottom line. A little mechanical shot turned around, the advantage of this ball shooting is mechanical, but it is still very accurate, Li Feng comfortably ate Anthony in the low post.

The Pelicans and the Nets went back and forth for two rounds, playing from the outside to the inside, and then making changes, but the rhythm and points of the Pelicans and the Nets were different.

The Nets play from the outside in, and the posture to be formed is to put pressure on Lopez and disrupt the opposing defense from the outside. Or give the basketball to Lopez and let Lopez hit the Pelicans' weak interior at this time, causing a score or a foul.

The Nets are an outside-in, and ultimately inside-in attack. But this is not the case with the Pelicans, Li Feng's breakthrough and pulling, in the end, caused opportunities on the outside, as well as misplaced offenses on the outside. These are two concepts.

One is from the outside to the inside, and then the inside is inserted to attack, and the other is from the outside to the inside. Then the radiant offense from the outside, one originates from two ways of scoring.

Although both teams were not bad in terms of scoring efficiency, after just over a minute of play, the Pelicans immediately called a timeout, by which time Lopez had already made Henson pay two fouls in a row, and if he continued to play like this, the Pelicans may not have a bench.

Van Gundy replaced Henson and Kelly, and then immediately brought on Al Jefferson and Gasol, both of whom were more effective at containing Lopez in terms of weight and footwork.

After the Pelicans came back, they immediately switched from a fast-paced to a slow-paced offense, Li Feng dribbled and pressed the rhythm forward, and after Al Jefferson came back, the Pelicans were going to hit Al Jefferson against Bogdanovic.

For a more mature team like the Pelicans, once you catch a weakness of the opponent, you have to play endlessly, until you give in to the ground and play until you make a substitution, otherwise this will eat you back and forth.

Bogdanovic on the Nets side also knows what the Pelicans are going to do, and he naturally won't blow up his weaknesses, so after coming over, his defense is mainly to go around the front, not letting Al Jefferson receive the basketball, and constantly blocking Al Jefferson in front of him, he knows that if Al Jefferson receives the basketball, he will be in big trouble.

Al Jefferson couldn't catch the basketball back and forth here, so Al Jefferson was anxious and wanted Li Feng to come over to help him hang back, but Li Feng pressed Jack two steps forward to the three-point line, and then motioned for Al Jefferson to come out to help him cover.

Al Jefferson didn't react at first, but then when he thought about it, he immediately ran over excitedly to block Li Feng's side, and Li Feng and Al Jefferson made a mistake and shook off Jack at once.

Then he pierced into the inside line of the Nets, and at this time Al Jefferson quickly bounced near the three-point line, and at this time Bogdanovic was blinded, whether he was going to cut off the connection between Al Jefferson and Li Feng or help defend Li Feng.

At this time, Li Feng is the only one who is the closest, and Lopez can't get out of it, and the distance that comes out is too far away to be bad for or Lopez, and Jack has already fallen.

Bogdanovic hesitated, Li Feng dismantled the basketball back, and it passed to Al Jefferson's hands, at this time Turke was too late to move, and Jack could not pose a threat to Al Jefferson.

Al Jefferson made an easy shot, his mid-range shot was already very stable, and the ball easily went into the Nets to the basket, and the Pelicans scored efficiently again, Albert said regretfully:

"Bogdanovic still hesitated, and one of his hesitations made the Pelicans."

"It's a defensive difference."

Bill Wharton said at this point:

"There is not much difference between the Pelicans and the Nets in offense, the most important thing is the defense of the two teams, you see that the Pelicans' defense just now has clearly solved the problem of who is going to help defend whom, but when it comes to the Nets, there is no problem, but once it is misplaced, the Nets' defense line will be messed up, if the Nets lose there today, I say that they lost on defense, they did not solve the details of the defense."

Bill Wharton's words stabbed Hollins in the heart like a pinprick. Looking at his flustered players, Hollins vowed to be tough on defense next season.

Bogdanovic shook his head helplessly, he was still too hesitant, the Nets here Jack dribbled and ran towards the Pelicans' half, from Jack's table, this guy was really desperate today, but desperately did not solve the fundamental problem, Li Feng's breakthrough, especially the breakthrough after the cover, he didn't defend one.

But Hollins still admired the guy at this time. After all, he also made Li Feng very painful, and Li Feng has not been so swaying in this period of time, which Hollins can see.

Jack wasn't very easy to play against Li Feng, and he handed over the basketball to Anthony immediately after halftime, and now the Nets are lacking not only a systematic defense, but they also really lack an effective playmaker on the outside.

The Nets don't have a very good playmaker who can organize their half-court offense, and it's usually just a matter of Anthony and Joe Johnson for the Nets. Or Bogdanovic will alternately shoot the organization, this kind of team without a core organization, the offense must be scattered.

Basketball is a five-player sport, but it's important to make sure which one is the core. A team without a core is a mess.

Anthony dribbled two steps at this point and was just about to do it when Lopez quickly went deep inside. After looking at the position of the card owner on the inside, Anthony had a good grasp of Lopez at this moment, so Anthony hung the basketball into it.

This position of Lopezka's home Pelicans interior line is actually quite difficult. Gasol also tried his best to push Lopez outwards at this time, and Lopez and Gasol fought to get this position.

The basketball received in his hand, Lopez received the ball and shook his shoulder, and suddenly turned to the left to the basket to prepare to attack, Lopez's action was fast and powerful, but Gasol was also focused on Lopez at this time.

When Lopez got to the basket, Gasol was also on top of Lopez's head, Lopez was very good at playing Henson just now, but now once he played against Gasol, he immediately felt a lot of pressure.

In the end, Lopez made a feint under the basket in the hope of attracting Gasol's attention, but Gasol did not jump at all, and in the end, Lopez could only use his bounce ability to jump backwards and throw the basketball to the basket.

Lopez made a hasty shot and didn't cause a foul, and the basketball rolled on the hoop and fell into the hands of Eljefferson, who turned around and found Li Feng to pass the ball.

After the Pelicans made a substitution here, the interior immediately defended Lopez, but his offense was not affected, and at this time, from the situation of the game, the Pelicans covered the Nets at once, which is too dangerous.

Hollins is very uncomfortable underneath, from the perspective of the situation, if the Nets want to win, they must completely take down their biggest advantage to maximize it, and the biggest advantage of the Nets is not many outside scorers but Lopez

Lopez opened up on the inside, and the Pelicans couldn't break free if they wanted to win, and they couldn't drink the opponent's competitive strength, so they could only rely on the advantage of the inside line to move the whole body.

After Li Feng took over the basketball at this time, he suppressed the rhythm and walked to the half court of the Nets, the speed was not fast, and now his team was ahead, and if he wanted to play, he would play a time-consuming half-court positional battle, and he must not play fast-paced basketball.

After half-time, Li Feng immediately gestured to his teammates, and then half-turned around himself, slowly pressing Jack back step by step, Jack was pressed here, and Anthony hesitated on the side to come and attack.

The Nets' defensive strategy here began to be unclear again, but the Pelicans did not have the obligation to wait for you, Li Feng pressed the degree, and Granger immediately came up from the baseline.

Anthony was hesitating, seeing Granger running past him, he instinctively sensed the danger and hurried to chase Granger, but it was too late, Granger took advantage of Li Feng's cover, caught the ball and shot in one step.

This rhythm is too suitable for Granger, Granger shoots after receiving the ball, Anthony can't defend, Jack is not tall enough, he shoots comfortably, Granger shoots softly and smoothly, and it's a 2-point shot.

The Pelicans are now playing more and more weapons, and Li Feng is very good at using himself, he uses his breakthrough and body not only to score by himself, but also to use his ability to break the Nets' defense to help his teammates score.

Compared to the variety of Pelicans, Hollins now knows very well that if he wants to win, he has to play his own thing, and he is loudly directing his team from the sidelines, opening up space at halftime.

Lopez was supported and covered by his teammates in the card position this time, Bogdanovic endured the pain to help Lopez block Gasol, and then Lopez's quick lateral movement got the inside position, but in the Pelicans' interior line, there is also Al Jefferson who has good mobility ability.

El Jefferson suddenly pushed behind Lopez, at this time Lopez knew that this was his moment, now he can only rely on himself, the whole team is watching himself, never give up, never retreat, never be knocked down, Lopez took a deep breath, and attacked backwards violently, with a violent impact and a huge roar in the center of New Orleans.

A great player definitely doesn't just have a great body, his mind must be hungry for a glorious victory, Lopez hit Aljefferson continuously, and at this time in the Nets' most critical moment, Lopez seems to have suddenly learned to move gracefully and steady rhythm.

Lopez's whole spirit and will had surpassed himself, impacting, feeling the rhythm of his body, suddenly turned around and stretched out his hand, and ran the basketball to the basket, Lopez's hand at this time was also beyond his usual level, and the basketball fell softly into the Pelicans' basket.

Lopez threw the ball into the basket, and Hollins waved his arm vigorously and shouted:

"Okay."

Lopez's sudden outburst made the atmosphere of the game between the Pelicans and the Nets suddenly tense, Granger made a shot and suddenly missed the second shot, although it was only an offensive miss, but it made the New Orleans Center and the Pelicans pair nervous.

At this moment, they seemed to have a premonition of some kind of danger, and the Nets returned to the half-court offense, this time Lopez did not get help from his teammates, so his position was not very good, but this qiē did not affect Lopez to ask for the ball.

At this time, the big man believed that as long as he touched the basketball, he could help the team, and the basketball was hung into Lopez's hand from the side, and Lopez, who received the basketball, put the basketball under his crotch and shook it, bending over, like a bull, ready to rush up at any time.
