Chapter 441: How Can I Defeat Wang Feng?
As soon as Wang Feng arrived in the last 2 minutes of the game and the battle situation was in a stalemate, he would suddenly have convulsions, how to throw, how to have, this is no secret in the league.
Whether it is in the regular season, the playoffs, the finals, or even the international arena, Wang Feng has proved this with his actual performance.
Antetokounmpo and the Bucks are aiming to beat the Cavaliers, how can they not be clear and take this into account?
But this kind of thing is not useful if it is considered carefully, just like they also arranged the defensive strategy against Wang Feng very seriously and rigorously, but they still let Wang Feng score 60 points in the third quarter of the game.
Therefore, when the countdown of the game time entered the last 2 minutes, Wang Feng directly jumped more than a meter away from the three-point line, and the defense of his alphabet brother reacted very quickly, and stepped forward to interfere with the shooting at the first time, and the defense was very good.
However, Wang Feng's shooting angle is very tricky, not only with a high jump height, but even with some backwards.
Brother Alphabet was a little speechless when he saw that his desperately outstretched hand still almost touched the basketball.
Pulling more than a meter away from the three-point line and actually adding a back, this shot is too difficult, right?
The letter brother who landed on the ground looked back and watched the basketball fly to the basket, and then directly into the net.
"Brush!"
Such a difficult shot actually went in!
The Cavaliers home fans on the sidelines burst into loud cheers.
Wang Feng, the king of the stubble, began to exert his strength! Although the Cavaliers at this time were still in a one-point deficit even if they scored this three-pointer, they showed as if the team had taken a big lead.
The Bucks possessed the ball, and Brother Alphabet held the ball and forced himself to burst into the basket to make a kill, causing a foul to go to the free throw line, and steadily hit both free throws, and the difference returned to 3 points.
But this point difference does not give the Bucks any sense of security.
Just watching Wang Feng receive the ball from his teammates at the bottom line of the Cavaliers, the Bucks players, coaches, and even fans couldn't help but pull up.
This guy has got the ball again, come and kill him!
However......
"Brush!"
It's another ruthless and unreasonable three-point pull, no matter how Brother Alphabet defends, as long as he can't block it directly, it seems that Wang Feng can throw that damn ball into the basket.
The score of the two teams is officially equalized, and the mentality on the Bucks' side has exploded.
Back to the Bucks' round, Brother Alphabet held the ball and continued to dig deep inside, but because he was too impatient, he was accidentally caught by the Cavaliers, Wang Feng suddenly came out of the lurking on one side, cut off the basketball in Brother Alphabet's hand, and then ran wildly in the direction of the front court.
The Bucks, who had no way to stop Wang Feng's offense, had no choice but to make a tactical foul and send Wang Feng to the free throw line.
In this way, in just a few rounds, inexplicably, the Bucks went from leading to lagging behind.
At this time, there was not much time left in the game, and the Bucks were helpless and could only try a three-pointer from the outside to turn the situation around.
But when the mentality has been completely unbalanced, Middleton, the most accurate outside of the Bucks, is also a little explosive.
After some running and off-ball coverage, Brother Alphabet attacked with the ball to attract the attention of the Cavaliers' defense, and then passed the ball to the perimeter, Middleton made a three-point shot from a wide open position, but the shot missed the frame.
Looking at the rebounding ball that bounced high in the back circle of the basket, Brother Alphabet still wanted to make the last wave, beating Wang Feng and Jarret. Allen grabbed the offensive rebound, and immediately after landing on the ground, he jumped for the second time to make a two-handed dunk.
But under Wang Feng's interference, his movements were a little slower and showed quite obvious flaws. Aaron saw the opportunity and flew directly with his big hat.
The fanned rebound was eventually picked up by the Cavaliers, and the Bucks could only immediately use foul tactics to grab the few offensive minutes.
For the Bucks, who lack firepower outside the three-point line, even if the foul tactics can buy a lot of time, but when they can't shoot three-pointers efficiently, they are just drinking to quench their thirst.
……
Minutes later, the Cavaliers' home stadium resounded with cheers from the fans.
At 129:125, the Cavaliers won a good start with a home win over the Bucks!
But what excites and excites the fans more than this victory is that they experienced the birth of a legendary record first-hand in today's game.
"It's a great battle for offense and defense."
O'Neill sincerely admired, "Looking at the history of the league, such a big scene of scoring is extremely rare. ”
"yes, if someone had told me before this that there would be two players in a game who could score more than 130 points combined, I would have thought that guy was absolutely crazy." Barkley shook his head, "Now I just feel like I'm crazy, this scene is actually happening in front of my eyes!" ”
"Wang Feng 74 points! Brother Alphabet 60 points! These two opponents teamed up to give us a scoring battle, which was also the first time in NBA history that two players scored 60+ in the same game! ”
"That's not all! Wang Feng's 74 points broke the record for the highest score in a single game in the playoffs! It's no disputing that the two of them are some of the strongest superstars in the league today!! ”
……
60 points, this is a new personal high in the playoffs, but he didn't have any joy and even frustration when he played a super god performance.
After all, they have all played to this extent, but they still can't defeat Wang Feng, he really doesn't know how to win this bug-like existence.
In just one game, everyone on the Bucks, including the leader, was demoralized.
You know, after all, it's just the Cavaliers, not the Lakers of the three-time championship dynasty!
On April 30, the series G2 game continued at the home of the Cavaliers.
Compared with the wonderful offensive battle in G1, the process of this game is not so "exciting".
Mainly on the Bucks' side, Brother Alphabet's state has declined a lot compared to G1, although it can still maintain the average level of the regular season, but it is obviously unrealistic to beat Wang Feng only by that level, not to mention that the Cavaliers' outside shooters have begun to recover in this game.
After a poor first game, Tool Man head coach Bickerstaff carefully analyzed and studied the Bucks' oppressive defensive tactics on the outside, and changed the Cavaliers' outside projection tactics.
The three-point shooters got more open shots in the second game, and with the blessing of Wang Feng's ten-cent badge, the feeling naturally gradually warmed up.
This directly led to the Bucks trailing by more than 10 points at halftime, and they were always pressed by the Cavaliers throughout the whole process, and finally lost the game 116-121, and the overall score came to 0-2.
The Cavaliers actually led the championship favorite Bucks 2-0, which made many experts who predicted before the game fall through the glasses.
Even though the Cavaliers have maintained a high winning rate during the regular season, most people are still generally not optimistic about the Cavaliers' performance in the playoffs.
But Wang Feng is too buggy, in the face of the collective inaccuracy of the three-point shooters in G1, he actually scored 74 points in a single game to turn the tide, and directly beat the Bucks, who could have predicted this?
According to this trend, it is not completely impossible for the Cavaliers to take away the Bucks in a 4:0 wave!
To the relief of Milwaukee fans, what they feared didn't happen.
In the third game of the series, the two teams came to Milwaukee, the home of the Bucks, and the Bucks who were fighting at home did not give up on themselves, but all members burst out with extremely tenacious willpower and forcibly lifted back half of the foot that was stepping on the edge of the cliff.
At 116:109, the Bucks won the G3 game and pulled one back, and the total score became 1:2, although the Bucks were still at a disadvantage, but not being taken by the Cavaliers was enough to boost the morale of the whole team.
On the other hand, Wang Feng was also quite helpless when he missed the match point.
This Cavaliers team, whether in terms of strength or mentality, is not a little bit behind the previous Lakers.
The problem with the failure of G3 is still in the mentality.
The rush to win the match point made the whole Cavaliers team quite anxious, and the broken Bucks' defensive moves were bigger than in the first two games, and the advantage of the home whistle made their big moves not easy to whistle.
If it is in the Lakers, these comprehensive factors can be crushed by strong strength, but if you change to the Cavaliers, you can only overturn in the gutter.
On May 3, the series G4 continued on the Bucks' home court.
The Bucks fans are all desperately cheering for their home team, after all, if they can win this game, then the overall score will return to a 2-2 draw, and if the two sides return to the same running line, they still have hope of winning.
It's just that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
The key G4 is that the Cavaliers have the last laugh.
Wang Feng scored high scores again, with 56 points, 14 rebounds and 7 assists, and finally turned the Cavaliers who were still behind in the first half with a complete reversal.
This victory was undoubtedly a murderous victory.
With a big score of 3:1, the Cavaliers already have a match point in hand, and only need to win one of the next three games to eliminate the Bucks and reach the Eastern Conference Finals.
Although the Bucks were very tenacious and won the game in the Cavaliers' home G5 and chased the score to 3:2, Wang Feng and the Cavaliers did not continue to give them a chance.
On May 9, the Cavaliers won 112-108 at the Bucks' home court, officially beating the Bucks, eliminating the Milwaukee Bucks with a total score of 4-2 and entering the Eastern Conference Finals.
The Bucks lost.
Not many people blame the Bucks' leader, Brother Alphabet.
In 6 games, Brother Alphabet's performance was impeccable, with an average of 40 minutes per game, Brother Alphabet contributed an average of 35.4 points, 12.7 rebounds and 5.6 assists, playing the most representative series of his career, but it was a pity that he met Wang Feng, who was more rebellious than him.
Wang Feng played an average of 43 minutes per game in 6 games, averaging 46 points, 11.4 rebounds and 10.1 assists per game.
And the Bucks are also currently in the middle of the team, and the team is missing one of the Big Three, John. Wall.
Since Wall did not join the Rockets at this time, most fans still image him as a high-quality point guard who can contribute 20+9 per game and is full of impact.
If Wall can stay healthy, the Bucks will definitely be stronger and will not necessarily lose to the Cavaliers.
But there are not so many ifs in this world, a loss is a loss, and the Bucks' playoff journey ends here, even if Brother Alphabet is unwilling, there is no way to do it, but to wait for Wall to return next season and then consider revenge on the Cavaliers.
……
The Cavaliers, who eliminated the Bucks to reach the Eastern Conference Finals, are unclear who they will face in the Eastern Conference finals.
Because of the division semifinals on the other side, the Nets and Celtics are still in a fierce battle.
Before the start of the game between these two teams, in fact, most people thought that this was a matchup with no suspense, the Nets' roster depth was too far ahead of the Celtics, and this series matchup was better than the Cavaliers vs Bucks.
But who would have thought that the Cavaliers had eliminated the Bucks 4-2, and the game between the Nets and the Celtics was still inseparable.
Just a day earlier, the Celtics won the game 119-118 to tie the total score at 3-3, and the two teams will play the final tie-break in two days.
The Celtics were able to play seven games against the Nets, which was really beyond everyone's expectations.
This season's Celtics playoffs have shown exceptionally strong fighting power, and even the Nets' big three can cope with it at the same time.
The team's first core Jason. Tatum averaged 29.5 points, 5.4 rebounds and 8.2 assists per game in 6 games, second only to Durant, who averaged 31 points per game for the Nets in terms of scoring.
The Celtics' rotation is significantly better than the star-studded Nets, who lack role rotation players, which is why the two teams are so inseparable.
Wang Feng, as a traverser, doesn't know who of the two teams will have the last laugh in the end, because in another time and space, the Nets were swept out by the Celtics 4:0 in the first round.
But the problems of that Nets team are obviously much more than the problems of the Nets in this time and space, and the combination of Ou Shenxian and West Juying makes Durant want to cry without tears.
There is no mask problem in this time and space, although Ou Shenxian occasionally does some work, but it does not affect the team, George is stronger than Simmons I don't know how many floors, so the Nets can maintain such a strong competitiveness.
To be reasonable, Wang Feng also thinks that there is a high probability that these two teams will be promoted by the Nets, and Durant still has a bit of a card, as long as his teammates are not particularly pitted, he can still bring it up.
Sure enough, in the seven-tiebreaker on May 12, the Nets had the last laugh on their home court, winning the game 108-95 and successfully entering the Eastern Conference Finals.
The matchup in the Eastern Conference Finals was decided, the Cavaliers vs the Nets, and it was a clash between Wang Feng and Durant.
The four teams in the west will also decide the winner.
Unexpectedly, the Golden State Warriors, who are ranked first in the West, once again faced the Los Angeles Clippers, who are ranked fifth in the West, in the second round.
The Clippers, who endured the pain and completely sealed Westbrook in the playoffs, broke out with James and Leonard in the playoffs, and actually played seven games with the Warriors and finally defeated the Warriors 4-3, and eliminated the Warriors to advance to the second round.
On the other side, the Pelicans, who are second in the West, and the Lakers, who are third, also played a tie-break. Butler played the best series of his career, averaging 28 points, 7.4 rebounds and 4.6 assists per game, proving that his ability to lead the team can still be trusted even without Wang Feng.
With Bushy Brow Brother Davis and Fat Tiger Zion. Williams partnered with Chris. Paul once again stopped in the division semifinals, and if it weren't for the fact that he broke into the Western Conference finals when he was paired with Harden, the title of Floor Man would have stayed with him for the rest of his life.
Clippers VS Lakers, no one expected that after Wang Feng left the team, the Lakers and the Clippers who couldn't get rid of Westbrook could still face off on the Western Conference stage.
