At halftime, the Pelicans led the Spurs by double digits 54-44!

Both sides know very well what this game represents: the Spurs won, regain the first place in the West, and take revenge on the Pelicans, with infinite glory, so that the Pelicans are ending their winning streak and their form is scattered.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Turner held the ball like crazy and hit the inside, the Spurs went up and was beaten by him, Turner rushed to Duncan with red eyes, the two collided hard, Duncan who stood firm didn't matter, Crazy Evan was directly knocked to the ground, but before that he waved the ball out, 'beep', the referee blew the whistle to block the foul, and then, the basketball fell into the hoop 2+1.

Li Feng pulled Turner up and shouted with some trepidation:

"Man, you're so easy to get hurt, you know? I don't want to win and see you get hurt! ”

Turner said coldly:

"What's the use of that kind of health if I stay healthy and I lose? Z, I'm already determined to be crippled, no matter what, I won't miss out on this championship! ”

The madness and iron blood that came out of Crazy Evan immediately conquered the hearts of Li Feng and Gasol, who were not young, and the two looked at each other, and there was iron and blood burning in their eyes: Since you want to be crazy, let's go crazy together!

Turnaga hit a free throw, Parker passed the ball to Duncan, and with the help of the halftime break, he got the ball and turned around and jumped. Of course, he didn't shoot against Li Feng, but always made sure that he shook off the opponent before shooting.

As a result, a hand still pressed up, and Gasol roared and pounced, slapping Duncan's ball off the court!

Duncan was taken aback, and Gasol bared his teeth at him and shouted:

"Stop dreaming. Tim, the game has just begun! Iron Journey, are you ready? ”

Although with crazy offense and aggressive defense, the Pelicans played a beautiful start to the second half, but then, for some reason, the Pelicans suddenly went dumb on the outside: Turner shot in the middle and hit the iron; Gasol made a pull-up jumper, missed, and Corey made a three-point shot that popped up......

The Spurs deserve to be a championship-caliber team. Their grasp of the opportunity is among the best in the league, and they immediately seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack, taking the opportunity to score consecutive points to close the difference.

Subsequently, Li Feng broke out, didn't he miss the outside shot? Give me the fucking balls!

With swear words roaring in his mouth, Li Feng was like an enraged tyrannosaurus, after Ginobili hit a jumper, he turned around and immediately carried a bully under the basket, and even jumped up with Duncan's blocking arm to dunk the ball into the hoop. Then, when Parker broke through, he chased him, and as soon as the ball was shot, Li Feng waved his arm and pressed it down. Five-fingered Kei Zhang actually grabbed the ball down!

The Pelicans launched a fast break, Turner's layup was interfered with by Ginobili and bounced out, and Li Feng came out from behind like a hungry wolf, hitting Sprint and picking up the rebound. With a roar, he dunked again, and tore the hoop heavily and came up with an extremely violent dunk.

With more than 2 minutes left in the quarter, the Pelicans outside touch is finally back. During this period, Li Feng used his giant dunk on the inside to carry the team forward, ensuring that the score was not overtaken by the opponent, and in the last 2 minutes and 12 seconds, Corey hit a three-point shot, and then, Gasol stole Duncan's pass to assist Turner on a fast-break counterattack layup, and in the last minute, Gasol and Turner broke through one after another and teamed up to score 6 points.

At the end of the first three quarters, the Pelicans led by 13 points from 81 to 68.

The Spurs obviously didn't want to give up the game, their body lì had a certain crisis, GDP gritted its teeth and fought back in the fourth quarter, after the opening, Li Feng first encountered Duncan's block under the basket, and then Parker made an offensive foul when he broke through, sending Gasol off the court, and Marshall, who played well in front, reappeared.

Seeing the quasi-rookie Marshall, the eyes of the Spurs players lit up all of a sudden, and they all planned to use this rookie as a breakthrough.

Marshall's small body is extremely deceptive, and not many people know what kind of big heart this little guy who is good at floating on the outside has it.

The Spurs launched a counterattack, at this critical moment, Marshall shot a three-point shot from the left wing as soon as he came on the court, Parker chose to break through from his side, Marshall's loose defense all the way led Parker into an encirclement, he and Li Feng sandwiched back and forth, and when Parker passed, Turner, who was waiting outside, broke the ball.

Li Feng made Duncan foul under the basket, and the bayonets killed by both sides were red, and the number of fouls reached the free throw standard early, standing on the free throw line, Li Feng made two free throws. But then, Ginobili's feint from outside the three-point line caused Corey to foul, and a more imposing three-free throw came to the point.

The Spurs narrowed the score advantage to double digits again, Marshall broke through with the ball, slipped all the way into the penalty area and ran from the left wing to the right wing, during which he staggered with Li Feng, he came to a NOLOOKPASS, and passed the ball to Li Feng during the run.

Li Feng dunked violently, and the Pelicans firmly held the lead.

Halfway through the quarter, Van Gundy replaced Gasol, who had already committed five fouls, with a panting Turner. In the next three minutes, the two sides engaged in a fierce defensive battle, and the situation was a bit deadlocked, and at the critical moment, Parker's walking violation and Ginobili's fake fall allowed the Spurs to miss the last chance to close the gap.

In the last 1 minute and 22 seconds of the game, Gasol hit a backward shot, Li Feng caused Duncan to foul and hit two free throws again, and in the last less than a minute, the Pelicans' lead was still 12 points, the Spurs strengthened their offense, and the Pelicans dragged on hard, and the game was over, they finally came to a precipice and won the last battle of life and death!

In this game, Li Feng played 40 points, 21 rebounds and 11 assists, and won a super record of 40+20+10 in two consecutive games, and Marshall also played 9 minutes to score 14 points and 4 steals, which made people realize that Paul Ma was not blown out!

……

Li Feng has two super watch games in a row, which makes the league tremble, and the Pelicans have won ten consecutive victories, which is not news, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex has stretched out its claws again, which can devour anything that stands in his way!

But once again, the Pelicans encountered the killer. The fans also trembled, and their next opponent was the Thunder, who were one of the few teams that had the confidence to face the Pelicans.

The Pelicans and Thunder, no matter which team, now have a strong appeal, the former because of the crazy offensive and defensive Li Feng, and the latter has Westbrook and Durant, the two box office selling points, so the tickets for this game were sold out long before the start of the season.

The only regret for fans across the United States is that neither TNT nor ESPN expected the Pelicans to shine so well this season, and neither TV station purchased the rights to broadcast the game in the United States. This means that many fans can only watch the game online or watch the game after the game.

This is something that the fans can't stand anymore.

The impact of the Thunder on the Pelicans was quickly felt, as their morale was rarely low, and they didn't have a ten-game winning streak at all, and when they arrived in the locker room at the Chesapeake Center, the home of the Thunder, no one spoke, only Van Gundy was doing tactical analysis.

Van Gundy has long studied the Thunder, an opponent they are likely to meet in the playoffs, and as soon as he arrived in the locker room at the Chesapeake Center, he began to instill his analysis into the ears of the players:

"Listen to the boys. Today you'll have the privilege of being an eye-opener at seeing the best heads-up teams in the league. Yes, you heard it right, the strongest weapon that your opponent has today. It's a heads-up score! ”

Pelicans players know this, and the Thunder like to use two methods in the process of offense, the first is the fast-break score, which is also their preferred method. Once they seize the opportunity to play a defensive counterattack, few people in the league can defend against it. In addition, the Thunder's half-court offense is also effective, as they excel at creating misalignments in three positions:

The most destructive is naturally Durant. His size allows him to single-handedly play small forwards in the low post, while his agility and ability to pull on the outside jumper make it impossible for big men to guard against him, and Durant's best way to score is to impact the basket, whether it's a straight attack or a back-to-back shot, he is proficient in any scoring method.

Then there's Westbrook, who, while not a regular point guard, is still second to none in terms of impact on the basketball court. Opposition teams often have to defend him with their own speedy little man, but most of them are not used to defending the scoring guru with guò off-ball runs and singles on both sides to score.

Last but not least, there is one of the Thunder's big players on the inside, and that's Ibaka, the Spaniard has provided a steady low-post attack for this team, and his dribbling in the box is as pleasing to the eye as Rooney's dribbling on the pitch, especially since his injury gradually recovered in the first half of the season.

However, the Thunder's disadvantage is also obvious, and one of their biggest weaknesses is that they don't have a fifth starter who can match the first four starters.

In the final analysis, the Thunder are a team with good combat effectiveness, of course, with players like Durant, Westbrook, and Ibaka, the team's combat effectiveness will not be much worse, and if they are in the East, they can even call the Cavaliers by relying on this configuration.

But in the West, this is not enough at all, because it is a terrifying era when you have to win at least 60 games in the West to have a chance of reaching the semi-finals.

The Pelicans' starting lineup is Al Jefferson, Pau Gasol, Li Feng, Turner, and Corey.

The starting lineup of the Thunder is Steven Adams, Serge Ibaka, Kevin Durant, Jerem Lamb, Westbrook, Scott Brooks finally let Lamb start, as analyzed above, if this kid is polished, it is definitely a new scoring bomb, and he can kill countless opponents.

However, if it is not used properly, then his bomb will kill his teammates.

Adams and Li Feng jumped the ball, the latter was looking at Westbrook, and after the two sides stood on the midfield line, he first turned back to greet Wei Shao next to him, and said with a smile:

"Hey man, are you having fun?"

Westbrook also laughed and said:

"It's not bad, but you know, I just want to enjoy the finals now."

It's not easy, because the Thunder's configuration is not luxurious in the West, they are strong in attack and weak in defense, and their ability is very uneven, simply put, the offensive players are super bad defensively. And the defensive players are super bad offensively, and the worst thing is that they are not the top in the league in terms of offense and defense.

But now instead of thinking about the situation of the Thunder, Li Feng should worry about himself, because he fell behind when he jumped the ball, and the ball was auctioned to Durant by Adams.

After Durant got the ball, he immediately threw it forward, Li Feng turned his head and found that there was no one in front of him, which made him a little puzzled, what was going on with Durant. Did you go out this morning and forget to eat your brain fragments? Mistakes at the beginning are not the habit of NBA-level stars.

But Corey's face changed, and he exclaimed:

"Stop him ......"

He only had time to spit out two words, and then Li Feng felt a strong wind blowing around him, and a snow-white figure flashed away from his eyes, and then turned into a sharp arrow wearing a No. 0 jersey and chased the ball wildly, rushing into the three-point line with a speed.

Turner was used to guard Westbrook, so naturally the speed would not be bad, and Van Gundy did not choose this kid to start because of the good relationship between the two. It's that he knows Turner well enough to know that he's up to the task.

Turner was very focused, keeping an eye on Westbrook in front of him, so when the latter kicked in. He immediately chased after him.

However, Van Gundy still overestimated Turner's ability, and although he tried to catch up with Westerbrook, the latter suddenly changed direction in the middle of the journey, and Turner was immediately thrown away. Westbrook burst into the box and made a backhand layup that took less than four seconds to put an end to it. And Li Feng just ran into the three-point line.

"That's fucking fast."

Li Feng couldn't help but sigh, Corey knew what the Pelicans should do now, he tried to keep the pace very slow, because he knew that opponents were used to fast-paced games, as long as they slowed down the pace, then they would be anxious, and then make mistakes, and finally they had a chance.

But Turner didn't think so, Westbrook's opening layup just now was too arrogant, he felt that he couldn't stand it, when Corey passed the ball to him to slow down the rhythm, he quickly came to the crotch dribble, his body swayed rhythmically like a willow in the wind, and the soles of his feet started to rush out.

Westbrook may seem thin, but his body contains endless energy, which is inversely proportional to his image.

Turner forcibly rushed forward, seemingly planning to use his body to crush Westbrook, who was thinner than him, but he picked the wrong target, Wei Shao did not let go and did not retreat, but directly went up, and the two of them collided together, and when they collided, Westbrook quickly reached out and accurately pulled the ball down.

Because of inertia, Turner's body still rushed forward, Westbrook picked up the ball, and his figure immediately turned into a sharp arrow and rushed forward with a roar.

Corey hurried back to defense, Lamb followed, and the three of them rushed forward like arrows, and it was Westbrook who was in possession at the top of the line, so you can see how fast he was.

Westbrook noticed Corey's follow-up with his peripheral vision, but he had no scruples, the speed of the charge was the same as always, Corey didn't dare to try his best to catch up, he was worried that Westbrook would pass the ball back to Lamb in the back, he also knew Lamb, this kid was a physical monster, and receiving the ball was definitely a violent dunk.

However, if Westbrook was so willing to share the ball, he would have won the championship a long time ago, and of course, that Westbrook is not the Wei Shao who conquered fans around the world.

Westbrook ignored Corey behind him, jumped into the restricted area and made a layup, Corey was relieved to know that he couldn't pass the ball, but at this time he wanted to block it too late, so he reached out and pulled him, pulled Westbrook down, and paid the price for the foul.

The ball staggered in the air, and finally hit the hoop and bounced out, Lamb followed up from behind, received the rebounded ball and came back viciously to a violent dunk, but unfortunately the foul was in front, the referee's whistle had sounded The ball did not count, otherwise this would be a really wonderful attack.

Lamb's face was dazed, Westbrook should have passed the ball just now, but he was a junior, and he couldn't say anything in front of Westbrook.

Westbrook made two of two free throws, and he only scored the way he thought was right, and he didn't care what his teammates thought they were.

Corey stepped up the attack, and he passed the ball to Li Feng. The latter was not busy attacking in the face of Adams' defense, but tried it, but Ibaka immediately came up to wrap up, Li Feng distributed the ball to Gasol, Gasol seized the opportunity of the vacant position and jumped to shoot, and the ball bounced on the hoop and was grabbed by Ibaka.

Westbrook wanted to pass the ball, but this time he didn't pick up the ball as soon as he got it, but ran slowly first, only to accelerate to the top again at the moment of rushing through the half, and Turner hurriedly followed back to defend. Both men rushed to the three-point line at great speed, and then Westbrook slowed down abruptly, and Turner gritted his teeth and tried to steady his figure, only to Westbrook to pick up speed again and rush past him.

"I don't believe in evil!"

Li Feng was a little upset by Westbrook's play, he has played against Kobe, Pierce, and Maddy, but he has never been so wolf-like, Westbrook's pull-up jump shot actually hit!

"I've played against him a lot of times, and he was much faster back then. But so what? I've beaten him more times, so don't panic, take your time, we just need to hold the pace. The victory of the game is definitely ours. ”

Corey gasped and comforted his teammates.

Turner grumbled and muttered:

"It's your team that won against his team, Stephen, don't change the concept. Every time you get blown to scum! ”

"It's like he left you with a whole corpse today?"

Corey glared at him and immediately retorted.

Turner wilted when he heard this, and the reason why he questioned Corey's words was because he was the one who was in the worst situation right now. The person who was directly opposite Westbrook was him, Westbrook scored 15 points in the first quarter, and he hit a three-in-a-row shot at the beginning, which blew him up.

Pierce handed Gatorade to Li Feng, and Turner stretched out his hand angrily and said:

"Man, give me a bottle, I don't have the strength to take a drink, I guess it will be your turn soon."

Originally, Pierce's face was very stinky when he heard Turner's command, but when he finished speaking, he immediately became happy and handed him the drink.

Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this scene, Pierce is not the kind of brainless madman, he is still saved.

In the first quarter, the Pelicans didn't play very well, or the Thunder's offense was too fierce, which made them a little unbearable.

After Westbrook hit three in a row, the Pelicans were finally able to open the pot, which relied on Li Feng, he helped Corey to block and disassemble, pulled Adams out of the restricted area and immediately returned, received Corey's pass and directly attacked the basket, and came to a violent dunk, as a result, the Thunder's counterattack immediately appeared, Lamb shot the ball outside the three-point line, and actually hit, which made Li Feng just want to scold his mother, is God on the side of the Thunder today?

Pelicans Turner's pass was almost cut off by Westbrook, Gasol was besieged by Ibaka and Westbrook after getting the ball, and hurriedly turned the ball into iron, Westbrook got the ball and played fast break again, this time he was caught by Li Feng, he sent the first block of the game, and it was a majestic hat.

Then Durant started to shoot, and he stepped into Westbrook's back lane, scoring six straight points to help the Thunder build a 13-point lead just over the halfway point of the first quarter, and the Pelicans trailed 10-23.

Westbrook used his sharp break in the second half to score the last nine of his 15 points on a free throw, so that although the Pelicans then fought back, the Thunder still led by nine points at 31-22 after the first quarter.

Turner's complaint became a fact, and Van Gundy sent Pierce, who had been on the bench for a while, to the court, and before coming out he grabbed the blood-red Pierce and said viciously:

"PP, go shred these abominable Oklahoma farmers and show them how good you are!"

Van Gundy's words reached Pierce's heart, and he looked at the arrogant Lamb opposite him and said with confidence:

"Wait for my good news, old man, I'll make that kid cry bitterly, that bitch raised him, he thought he really became an angel with wings painted on his body?"

The Thunder began to rotate the lineup in the second half of the first quarter, so they can still get five starters in the second quarter, and the Pelicans can't do it, and they have to make substitutions to maintain the body of the main players, which is why the Pelicans players are so panicked now, his grandmother's opponents are on the bench and win them by so many points, this is a terrible rhythm.

Corey is off the field and replaced by Jordan Hamilton, who will partner Pierce in the backcourt. The reason for this is because Van Gundy needs someone to defend Westbrook, and Jordan Hamilton, who is similar in speed and size to Westbrook, is naturally the best choice.

Jordan Hamilton was originally a water cooler guard, but Van Gundy is now learning more and more from the past and starting to use new people, Hamilton seized the opportunity and got the opportunity, of course, this is also because Danny Granger has recently had a trend of recurrence of old injuries, and Van Gundy has to give Granger more rest.
