Chapter 548: Strange Soldiers Emerge Repeatedly
Jones stuck the rebound under the basket, and the Knicks chased after him again, and at this time the Knicks began to play Li Feng's off-ball tactics.
Li Feng went around the court in a big circle, and the moment he got the basketball, he saw two or three players from the Eagles pounce on Li Feng, and the other two players were also ready to respond at any time, and the whole team defended Li Feng alone.
This time, the eagle was really determined to kill Li Feng, and Li Feng was not sure that he would fight five alone.
But at this time, Li Feng saw it at a glance, and after covering himself, Jones bounced outside the three-point line, Li Feng jumped up with all his strength and turned around and threw the basketball to Jones.
Jones is another three-point ability, taking the ball in the bottom corner and throwing a three-pointer "Brush!" "The basketball smashed into the Eagles' basket. This is a good time, the Hawks' own big man outside three-point did not play, but the Knicks' outside three-point did come.
In this way, the Knicks widened the point difference. Madison Square Garden fans saw that the fast break was there, the 2+1 was there, and now they even had three points. Immediately, the fans cheered happily.
The Knicks offense played, and the fans on the sidelines were shining, and their morale rose all of a sudden.
At this point, the situation is completely different from the first quarter, where the Hawks pressed the Knicks in the first quarter, and now the Knicks are holding down the Hawks and beating them.
Woodson didn't expect the reversal so quickly, but Woodson, who knew that the court was like a battlefield, immediately stabilized the situation, and commanded the team to pull the frame steadily, and the Knicks' half court was full of passes and covers. It finally became a sports battle score.
It was not easy for the Hawks to score this time, but what Woodson didn't expect was that Li Feng made a run without the ball in the Hawks' half. But Williams ran out with him, and Li Feng suddenly turned around and took the main position.
Li Feng took the position, Livingston immediately passed the ball to Li Feng, and Li Feng took the ball and hit the Eagles' basket in one step.
At this time, when the Eagles' defense could only shrink, Li Feng's ball came out again, and Livingston shot steadily outside the three-point line.
The basketball flew out of Livingston's hand and slammed into the Eagles' basket with a swipe. After Jones' three points. Livingston is another three-pointer, this time it is not only Li Feng who has opened it alone, but the entire Knicks' outside firepower has awakened.
After three points in Livingston. Monroe's mid-range shot also came, J.R. Smith's three-point shot also came, and the Knicks relied on Li Feng's strong point to continuously erupt with dense outside firepower. A three-minute rain bombarded down. At the end of the period. Instead, the Knicks led the Hawks by 12 points at 62-50.
The Hawks still had an advantage in the first quarter, and they suffered such a big loss in the second quarter, which was beyond everyone's expectations. The two teams played so hard before, and everyone thought that it was not easy for the Knicks to chase points, but now at the beginning of the second quarter, Jones and Li Feng connected and knocked the Hawks over. At this time, a thought also came to Taberdu's mind, maybe Jones was more suitable for Li Feng than Monroe.
Tyberdu is a manager who has the courage to practice in a certain sense, and he has the idea of using Jones with Li Feng. It is ready to be implemented in the third section immediately.
At the same time, Woodson was yelling at his players in the locker room, and the Hawks were actually playing better than usual today.
But the reality is that the Knicks are more rigid than Woodson expected. So today's tough battle of the Eagles did not fight a group of young people. This is the sorrow of the eagle, and it is also an inevitable path.
After Woodson cursed, he immediately laid out the counter-attack tactics for the second half, and the Hawks needed to solve several problems at this point.
The first point is the offensive problem, the Hawks are blocked by the Knicks' defense, and in the past, the Hawks used Horford to smash a gap directly, but now Horford is old. Woodson could only figure out how to figure out tactically, and in order to strengthen the projection, Woodson put Mark and Korver in the starting lineup for the second half.
Korver's shooting ability is solid, and his defense is solid, and he is a pitcher who can score. Korver, a player, is somewhat different from Woodson's consistent use of personnel, Woodson has always used people like to use veterans and players with mature personalities.
But Mark is a stunned green, and he is also the kind of projection stunned green, this kid can shoot several three-pointers in a row, and he doesn't feel it, and this kid can also throw out several outrageous shots.
Forcing Woodson to use such a player fully shows that the elder Woodson is a little anxious.
On the defensive end, the Eagles also have no talent to defend the opponent one-on-one, and the Eagles can only rely on collective strength at this time.
Woodson saw that the offensive battle in the first half did not play a big role, and at this time he began to defend layer by layer, starting to defend Li Feng from running without the ball, and arranging until Li Feng was wrapped and how the team should defend Li Feng when he transferred the ball.
After making such careful arrangements, Woodson also understood that even the most careful arrangements would not necessarily lead to victory.
There are two things that dominate the outcome on the pitch, one is individual talent and the other is luck. When Woodson was ready, he could only see what these two things were coming.
After the break, the two teams returned to the court, and the Knicks kicked off first, at which point the Knicks' lineup in the second half became point guard Dragic, scoring guard Belineri, small forward Li Feng, power forward Jones, and center Cousins.
Cousins didn't play for a few minutes in the first half, and now he finally held his back and played, but he was very energetic.
Dragic also unexpectedly passed the basketball to Cousins at the beginning, and Cousins took the ball and hit Horford directly, but this kid was so happy and sad that he lost the basketball as soon as he dribbled.
Cousins came up and dropped a ball, and he also looked a little annoyed, and ran back with bared teeth.
Li Feng glanced at Cousins at this time and did not speak, the reason why the Knicks gave the basketball to Cousins to do singles.
As soon as Uncle Cousins missed, the Hawks immediately shifted over, and Teague used his teammate's cover to run off the ball to attract the defense. However, Li Feng defended Teague closely, and Teague couldn't play this point.
Mark immediately made a simple run with Horford, Horford came up to help Mark block it, Mark immediately rushed to the three-point line, picked up the ball and made a three-pointer.
As mentioned earlier, Mark's rhythm is different from the rhythm of the entire Eagles, the rest of the Eagles use their brains to get the ball and shoot when they have space, but Mark is not that he can shoot if he has no space to shoot.
This kind of person breaks the convention, the Knicks are guarding against the people who make regular shots all night, and he comes out with a person who doesn't play cards according to common sense, and the Knicks are naturally unexpected.
Mark hit a three-pointer and smashed into the Knicks' basket.
"Brush!"
Mark's three-pointer went in, and Woodson looked at the situation on the court and felt a lot more comfortable.
He kept a player in his team with a rhythm that was absolutely different from others, just to surprise the soldier, and now the effect of this surprise soldier has finally come out.
This trick of putting a guerrilla in the regular army was definitely not Woodson's first creation, but it was really useful.
The Knicks defended well, and the Hawks suddenly jumped out and a mark gave the team a stick, and Li Feng immediately yelled at Dragic on this side:
"Look at him! Be sure to watch him! ”
Dragic gritted his teeth at Li Feng, he really didn't look at this person, but Dragic's rhythm of Korver was indeed a little unbearable.
When the Knicks came back, Li Feng wanted the same no-ball running position as in the second quarter, but at this time, the Hawks were very resolute not to even give Li Feng the route of running without the ball.
The way the eagles took was to block Li Feng's route, and the other players blocked the bottom line to prevent Li Feng from running.
The Eagles' defense has very high requirements for rotation, and once the defender goes over to block Li Feng, the players behind will have to take on the task of rotating the defense.
At this time, the eagle actually did it, so Li Feng was suffocated in the corner all of a sudden.
As soon as Terence Jones saw that the Eagles' attention was on Li Feng, he immediately pulled it out and asked Dragic for the ball.
Dragic passed the ball to Jones, Jones took the ball and turned around to see that it was Korver who turned to defend him, this guy was a head shorter than himself, and Jones suddenly felt comfortable and relaxed. The shot scored 2 points on Korver's face.
Seeing that Jones had this kind of appearance as a rookie, Woodson blinked on the side, and the old man was depressed.
I finally blocked a Li Feng, but I didn't expect that Jones, a rookie, would grow so fast, and he would be so stable in only half a season.
After Mark just hit such a three-pointer, the kid suddenly came to his senses, and then returned to the Knicks' half, Mark was quite active, running back and forth.
He shot a ball before, and at this time the Eagles players also knew that Mark had a good hand, so as soon as they saw him active, they immediately put the basketball in Mark's hands.
The moment Korver got the ball this time, Dragic was already defended and standing in front of him.
But Mark didn't seem to see Dragic, and he got up directly to face Dragic and threw a three-pointer.
Dragic got up to interfere with him, and he was also in place, but he still couldn't stop Mark's fiery touch.
Mark actually hit a three-pointer directly on Dragic's head this time.
As soon as this three-point shot hit, Dragic and all the people on the Knicks' side were depressed.
This kind of clear defense is in place, but it is also very hurtful for the opponent to still be able to shoot. (To be continued......)
