Chapter 962: Two Goods

Just when the Bulls were in good shape, Brooks rushed over with the ball, the Bulls fast-break three-on-two, Brooks actually turned around and passed an extremely nonsensical pass when he broke through, and the basketball passed directly behind Mirotic, so that Mirotic couldn't catch the ball.

Brooks came over and wasted a chance, the ball was picked up by Turner in the back, and Turner turned around and rushed over to cause a foul on the Bulls.

When Turner went to the free throw line, Phil Jackson finally couldn't take it anymore, and he immediately replaced the dizzy Brooks, replaced Paul and then quickly replaced Mirotic, Mirotic's European player was too bad, and he replaced Tygibson.

The Bulls are gradually starting to play a mixed lineup, mainly because Phil Jackson has noticed that several players on the bench are gradually getting better, but they still need the main players to control the rhythm.

As soon as the Pelicans saw that the other party was on Paul, Li Feng was also quickly replaced, and the Pelicans also had the strongest attack mixed pain.

Turner was at the free-throw line, missed the free throw, and Turner has always been a little bad at making free throws.

The Bulls' Paul was much more stable with the ball, took the ball to the wing and pulled it slightly, took advantage of his teammates' cover, and moved diagonally towards the middle. In doing so, Paul both opened up space and disrupted the opposition's defense.

The Pelicans shrank slightly, and Paul easily passed to the weak side.

Paul's passing opportunities were much better than Brooks', but Snell, who had the ball, had no sense, and Snell missed a three-pointer from beyond the three-point line.

Once the Bulls' bench was missing that little bit of madness, it was as if something was missing. Some players are such nerves, they can't play according to tactics, and they can go crazy and play casually.

Several of the Bulls' players today are this type of players, especially Brooks and Moore are the kind of players who can shoot casually and are uncomfortable with how to play according to the tactics.

Compared with the Bulls, the Pelicans' offense is much more sophisticated, and the team runs over. Turner made a steady pass to Li Feng near the penalty area.

Li Feng took the ball and faced Snell, Snell just played more vigorously, and now once he faces Li Feng, there is a big difference in physical quality.

Li Feng played very easily in the face of Snell, dribbling two steps to the basket to the basket, and then got up and easily scored two points with a throw.

Li Feng beat Snell too easily, and at this time Phil Jackson regretted a little why he didn't leave Mirotic on the court.

On the Bulls' side, Turner prevented Paul from receiving the ball, and Moore on the other side hit a few irritable players when he got the ball.

Moore took the ball in the backcourt and broke through quickly, regardless of the opponent's interior defense, Moore broke through so badly. Naturally, it was blocked by pelicans. Faced with this situation, Moore turned around and passed, and Gibson, who was blocked, finally received the ball, but because it was too difficult to receive the ball, he couldn't attack the ball and could only turn around and pass the ball to Paul who came up behind.

Paul's rhythm with the ball stabilized at once, and in the face of Turner who came out of the defense, Paul didn't make too many moves, and used the rhythm of the cover to dribble a step and get up a mid-distance.

Paul's attack was not very earth-shattering. But the victory is good at the right time, and it is most reasonable to play like this at this opportunity.

Paul got up and hit a ball steadily, and with Paul controlling the Bulls' crazy rhythm a little, it was really much better.

When Paul arrived on the court, he controlled the rhythm, and the Pelicans played again, and the basketball was still in Li Feng's hands.

Li Feng is now playing Snell completely advantageously. Height, weight, and speed all have an advantage, so as soon as Li Feng came over, the basketball was still in Li Feng's hands.

The moment when Li Feng got the ball here. The Bulls are preparing Moore in front and Gibson in the back.

They all waited for Li Feng's move, but Li Feng's first move startled the bull. Because Li Feng took the ball and leaned forward. Suppressed Snell, and then turned around and gave Snell a clean pass.

Li Feng abolished Snell as soon as he could, and at this time, Gibson hurriedly said the bottom line to defend, and Moore on the line also came to wrap up.

In this way, Li Feng attracted three firepower, and the three people looked like they were about to wrap up Li Feng, and Li Feng made an awkward-looking pass to Pierce in the open space on the outside.

Pierce's offensive feel today is average, but Li Feng still looks for Pierce to pass the ball, because Li Feng knows that Pierce is the kind of shooter full of confidence, whether it is accurate or not, as long as it is his chance, Pierce will definitely shoot, and the shot will go in, because where is Pierce's confidence and accuracy. If the mentality is not shaken, the technique is not out of shape, and the hit rate will definitely be guaranteed.

Sure enough, once Pierce had a good chance, the three-point shot was a solid one.

"Huh!"

Pierce hit a three-pointer, the scores of the two teams were still about the same, neither team exceeded the other side too much, and both teams entered a mixed lineup with strong offensive firepower, and the efficiency at this stage will definitely affect the whole game.

The game entered a stalemate, with both teams scoring without scoring and scoring together.

Now that they have entered the state of offense, the Pelicans have played a combination of internal and external tactics, and Li Feng has become the core of the tactics again.

On the Bulls' side, Paul was not to be outdone, and once again took the ball over and pulled it to the wing, and the other players of the Bulls pulled the space away.

Paul singled out Turner with the ball, Paul and Turner were better than the pure body zhì and Turner, but Paul was better than Turner in the use of skills and physical use.

Turner has a 90-point body and can use up to 80, while Paul has a body of 85, and he can play a 95-strong game. This gap is quite large, and it is where Paul is strong.

Facing Turner, who was physically stronger than himself, Paul first controlled the rhythm, dribbled behind his back, and then immediately lowered his body to dribble under his crotch, and when Turner also lowered his center of gravity.

Paul's first move, which was small but fast, passed Turner half a body at once.

This is where Paul is strong, he can always use the right technique at the right time, which is actually a talent.

Paul took half a step past Turner, broke through to the basket quickly, and saw the opponent's defense come up. Paul didn't force a layup, didn't make a hasty pass, jumped up and shook, leaned back in the crack and stuffed the basketball into the hands of Gibson, who also drilled into the hand of Gibson, who also drilled into the rebound, Gibson's finishing ability under the basket was speechless, and he took the ball and took the ball with a hook hand to score two points.

Li Feng played a combination of inside and outside with the Pelicans, and Paul began a heads-up on the wing, both of whom are the kind of players who can finish the offense and connect the whole team, and this kind of player is also a sign of the top players.

The Pelicans came here again. The basketball was in Li Feng's hands, and Snell couldn't bear it. Seeing that it was going to work, he immediately hugged Li Feng with a tactical foul, and even didn't let Li Feng make an attack action.

Snell fouled in advance, and Bulls head coach Phil Jackson took advantage of this opportunity to quickly replace Snell and replace Mirotic.

Phil Jackson took advantage of the dead-ball time and finally replaced him with a serious No. 3 player, and the Pelicans kicked off the baseline. Get the basketball back on.

When Li Feng got the ball again, he was not facing Snell's dispensable defense, and Mirotic's defensive level was definitely not ordinary.

Li Feng saw that it was Mirotic who came to defend him, and he immediately held the ball on the frame. Ready to use speed to beat Mirotic, although Mirotic's defense is good, but Mirotic is still old after all.

But as soon as Li Feng was framed, Mirotic immediately stepped forward. He yelled at Gibson behind him.

Gibson came over and was also decisive, at this time Li Feng was suddenly one-on-two, and he hurriedly passed the ball to Kelly, who was pulling towards the three-point line.

Kelly is open for the ball here. He threw a mid-range shot, and as soon as he made it, he had a lot of strength.

Kelly shot more threes, and two points were a bit bad.

Kelly missed, and the Bulls immediately grabbed the basketball and pushed it back again, this time for Moore with the ball.

Moore didn't have the patience of Paul with the ball, he took the ball up and dribbled behind it, and then stopped it directly.

"Bang!"

Moore missed this shot, but the Bulls really had luck with rebounding today, and Moore also jumped out of the way this time, jumping directly into the hands of Paul outside the three-point line.

The ball was lost, and Paul immediately pulled the ball outside the three-point line, allowing his teammates to open up space for himself. Paul also had to play alone on the wing, and the Bulls players pulled up to the other side.

At this time, everyone thought that Paul was going to come up and break through, but at this time, Paul faced Turner at this time, and came up with his back directly.

Paul was about to hit Turner with his back, a move that seemed a little puzzling.

Because Paul doesn't have an advantage in size, why do you have to fight with your back!

But when it comes to real accountability, players with better skills have a higher success rate of playing with their backs than with a face frame. You don't see some old players, and the last frame is gone, but can you turn your back!

What does this mean, it shows that the physical demands of the back attack are simpler. As long as you can resist, the rest of the footsteps are flexible enough, and the technique is skillful, you can score, but the noodle frame is not good, and the noodle frame has high requirements for speed.

Paul resisted Turner two steps here, dribbled in one step, held down another step, and held Turner to the death.

Turner desperately pushed Paul out, at this time, if it was an interior defender, he would pay attention to the opponent's turn, but Turner was not very experienced in defending the inside line, and when he was still working outward, Paul turned over and cleaned Turner, and Turner's strength was twisted. Paul turned past Turner, and although Henson and Li Feng both caught up, just before Henson and Li Feng jumped, Paul shot with a very fast throw.

Li Feng and Henson, the two bouncing monsters, came to block together, and they didn't touch Paul's ball, which was indeed much faster than people.

The basketball fell into the Pelicans' basket with a "swish", and Paul hit Turner twice in a row.

It's a bit of a tough situation to deal with, and the Pelicans are at a loss at the point guard position.

And Paul has a good performance in a row, so that Paul can play, and the situation is not good.

The Pelicans came back to play, and Mirotic worked with Muhammad to prevent Li Feng from receiving the ball, which made it a little difficult for Li Feng to receive the ball.

At this time, the basketball was naturally handed over to Kelly to respond, and Kelly took the ball and gave it to Turner, who came over and made a quick throw.

Although Turner's throws are both throws from Paul's, the grasp of proportion is a thousand miles apart, and Turner's throws are completely brainless and missed.

Muhammad picked up a rebound under the basket for nothing, and he immediately passed it to Paul. Paul's successive has a good table xiàn.

At this time, everyone has seen that Paul's state is here, and basketball should be handled by Paul.

Paul came over with the ball at this time, and the Pelicans guessed that Paul might have to play on the wing, but at this time, Paul pulled towards the wing and called a cover in the middle.

Muhammad ran up in the middle, and Paul suddenly launched an attack, drilled up one step, reached the free throw line, and faced Li Feng with a pass feint. Li Feng's feet stalled slightly, and Paul took another diagonal step to the basket.

Although the position was blocked, there was almost no angle to shoot, and Henson's defense followed.

In this case, Paul's whole body flew out sideways, with his back to the basket and a backhand layup, the basketball was made by Paul in a very tricky arc, and the basketball spin was very powerful.

The tricky backhand layup went over Henson's fingertips and grazed the rebound. And then I went in.

Paul suddenly made a wonderful backhand layup, and the Bulls players immediately became excited, both the players on the bench and the Bulls players on the court shouted excitedly.

After Paul himself made a wonderful layup, he also swung his fist hard.

The Bulls played well in the first quarter today. Now in the second quarter, Paul finally came out and lifted the team's momentum.

Once Paul got the momentum up, the Pelicans also felt bad, and Van Gundy immediately called a timeout, making Paul go crazy. That's not an interesting thing.

At this time, Bill Wharton was not afraid of big things and said:

"Paul's successive balls were so beautiful, breaking through passes, attacking with his back. And the magic layups. The momentum of the bull in one breath is driven. Paul is definitely the top guy in the league! ”

Director Zhang also said at this time

"Paul is really good, taking points without angle at all. This is not possible from a normal point of view! ”

While everyone was praising Paul, the Pelicans were trying to figure out how to limit Paul.

Now that Turner can't stop Paul, Van Gundy has no choice but to replace Turner and let Corey defend Paul specifically. As a defender, Corey is still slightly more professional than Turner.

After the pause, the Pelicans kicked off on the sideline, and the basketball went directly to Li Feng's hands first.

Li Feng got the basketball here, his body swinged, and he directly gave Mirotic, and after Mirotic, Li Feng thought that he finally had a chance to play.

But he was just about to make a move, and Mirotic also made a tactical foul and directly pulled Li Feng down first.

Li Feng was fouled again, and what is even worse is that he has not made free throws, and now the five fouls have not yet arrived, and Li Feng has not had time to make a shot.

Mirotic used his foul to hold Li Feng down, just to prevent the Pelicans from demoralizing.

When the Pelicans restarted the ball and wanted to find Li Feng again, the Bulls promised not to let Li Feng receive the ball. The Pelicans' basketball could only pass to Pierce's hands, and although Pierce took the ball at this time, the opponent saved, but the Bulls' interior line leaked.

Because the Bulls have to defend Li Feng and make up for Pierce, there must be loopholes, and Pierce's passing is also very sharp.

A one-handed pass to the basketball went to Henson under the basket, and Henson almost faced an empty basket when he took the ball, and he was sure to score points at this time.

But at this time, Henson had another convulsion, this guy took the ball and wanted to dunk, dunk it, Henson wanted to play a fancy dunk, but he didn't dunk it when he was close at hand, but smashed it into the hoop.

"Bang dang!"

Henson's dunk was loud, but the basketball didn't go into the basket and flew far away.

"Oooh!"

Once Henson was so dunked, the audience immediately booed with remorse, why Van Gundy used the old Gasol instead of Henson to start is understandable, this guy is a two. B。

The basketball on the Bulls' side passed to Paul, who is in hot form right now.

He came over with the ball, Corey was careful to defend, Corey and Paul kept a good distance, let Paul go to the wing, and didn't let Paul go in the middle.

Paul's side was restricted from position, and he immediately called in for his teammates to cover, and Tygibson ran up.

Paul tugged at his left. Pulling to the right, seeing that the opponent still didn't let him go to the middle, Paul simply stabbed forward, jumped back quickly and jumped outside the three-point line to throw a three-pointer.

Paul's three-point is also relatively stable, the only drawback is that the shot is relatively slow, the three-point is not Paul's strong scoring means, Paul's strong scoring means or breakthroughs and various jump shots.

However, at this time, Corey was slightly blocked by Gibson, and Kelly did not come up defensively, which gave Paul a chance to score three points.

"Whew"!

Paul's three-point shot came again. Paul is in good shape today, and he can hit a layup without an angle, and this three-point shot with a slight gap is naturally accurate.

Paul came up and scored another three-pointer, and the Pelicans called a timeout and didn't stop Paul, and Paul began to rampage.

At this time, Van Gundy also realized that Paul was in shape, and this was not something that one person could defend. He hurriedly came up and directed the team to strengthen the defense against Paul, using the method of helping to defend or packing.

The Pelicans were a little caught off guard by Paul, because Paul has always been organized in the first half and attacked in the second half. But today I look at the state. Paul opened fire in the first half.

The Pelicans came over again, and the Bulls grabbed the medicine according to the prescription, desperately preventing Li Feng from catching the ball and preventing Pierce and Kelly. Let go of Henson and Cory.

With this defensive strategy, the Pelicans don't dare to pass the ball to Henson anymore, and God knows what Henson can do.

Kelly's side quickly moved the ball to Corey, who gradually transitioned into a full-time shooter. Take the ball and raise your hand to throw a three-point shot.

Corey made a resolute shot, but the ball missed.

Now the Pelicans are not very lucky, when the Bulls are in great shape. On the Pelicans' side, Henson missed a dunk, Corey missed a three-point shot, and Pierce and Kelly were in average shape, which gave the Bulls a chance to fight back.

The Bulls got the basketball again, and sure enough, they still passed the ball to Paul, and at this time Paul took the ball and pushed it forward.

Li Feng couldn't help it, when Paul and Corey were facing each other, Li Feng rushed out of the bag at once, Li Feng and Corey's bag was quite mature, and Paul was caught in the middle of the bag all of a sudden.

If this bag is against ordinary players, it will definitely be stealed, and the opponent will not have a chance to practice moving.

However, in addition to good ball control on Paul's side, he has many small actions that are on the verge of fouling.

Paul pushed Li Feng with his hand, jumped backwards with the ball, trying to open up space, Corey naturally didn't want Paul to have space, and when he chased over, Paul half-turned and sent the basketball to the crotch at once.

Once Paul has his crotch, it's not easy to do, because Paul's crotch center of gravity is very low and he has fast ball control.

Corey couldn't do it on his side, Li Feng hurriedly wrapped up from the side at this time, but at this time, Paul continued to use his small dribbling movements, holding the ball with his right hand, pushing and pulling Li Feng with his left hand, and at the same time he could draw a one-handed change of direction and step back to the side.

Paul's possession of the ball against the small action is between a foul and a non-foul, and as soon as you pull his hand, Paul immediately lied to you for a foul.

This kind of trick of controlling the ball is not above board, but competitive sports do not need to be above board, as long as you walk on the edge of the rules and can win, and the effect is reasonable, because competitive sports are life and death, unscrupulous.

Paul's control of the ball can also fight against Li Feng's bag, and Li Feng was also a little angry by Paul.

But just when Li Feng pounced again, Paul had already found someone, with Paul's vision, you can't hold it once, and the second time you basically have no chance.

Paul suddenly threw out a long pass here, Mirotic was just empty at the bottom, Mirotic was a champion player, and he seized the opportunity with a line, and threw it out with a three-pointer.

"Huh!"

The Bulls scored another three points, and Paul went crazy today, unable to defend himself alone, and he could pass the ball in a double pack.

The Pelicans were a little helpless by him, and Li Feng was also a little angry here, and he finally got the ball with small movements below when he came over again.

But this time Li Feng only got the basketball, and a breakthrough passed Mirotic, and Muhammad came over and hugged Li Feng with another bear hug.

Fortunately, at this time, Li Feng made a shooting move, went to the free throw line, and Li Feng mixed two free throws. (To be continued......)
