Chapter 420: The Role of the Core

The Knicks kicked the ball from the sideline, Rose got the ball, and Li Feng immediately sank to the baseline to go to Caspart.

Li Feng played the No. 4 position against Split, Li Feng actually didn't suffer, Split couldn't jump, and his movement speed was also fatally affected.

Ross remembered the coach's instructions, took the ball and immediately distributed it to Li Feng on the bottom line.

Reggie Miller saw Li Feng playing the No. 4 position, and suddenly he said a little excitedly:

"The Knicks' adjustment is actually to let Li Feng play power forward. I have to say that this change of formation is a bit interesting! ”

"Li Feng's low position is very strong!"

Jeff Van Gundy said at the same time.

Seeing such a situation, Bo. Povich was also stunned, Li Feng played the No. 4 position? At this time the wave. Povich was a little worried about Split.

Split is a floor stream, but his body is okay, and Li Feng doesn't let Li Feng move.

Li Feng's body twisted, feeling a lot of pressure behind him, so Li Feng simply stepped back and stepped forward to open up a little space, the space was Li Feng's friend, but it was Split's enemy, Split stepped forward.

Li Feng took advantage of the situation and turned around, the whole person was like a spinning top, he shook off Split at once, ran to the basket along the bottom line, got up and pulled the rod to the basket.

Duncan's footsteps couldn't keep up, and Li Feng easily scored two points under the basket.

Li Feng opened the game and finally scored two points beautifully in the athletic battle. With these two points in hand, Tyberdu's heart finally settled down a little.

This shows that Li Feng has hope for beating Split.

At the same time on the other side of the pitch, the waves. Povich saw that Li Feng was playing Split with ease, he was a little nervous, and unconsciously glanced at the bench. He wanted to know which players he could use to resist Li Feng.

The Knicks changed the lineup of the small one. Povic has been ordered to play to the basket, so this round comes.

The Spurs did hit the basket, but the way the Spurs played the basket was somewhat unexpected. The Spurs actually used Ginobili to shoot near the basket.

They came over and designed a baseline cover for Ginobili, Ginobili ran around, reached the Yuan waist to receive the ball, and turned back to face J.R. Smith who was catching up.

Ginobili dribbled a step straight and made a pull-up jump shot into the Knicks' box.

The Spurs' choice sounds messy, but in fact he is taller than J.R. Smith, which is one advantage, and the other is that although Li Feng has bounce, his ability to control the area and fill the space is not comparable to Evans. Li Feng played inside, and there was a lot of rich space in the penalty area, giving Ginobili room to operate.

So Ginobili came over with a jumper from inside the box very easily. The shot was very comfortable, and the basketball simply fell into the Knicks' basket.

The Spurs' firepower on the offensive end has not diminished, and they are still playing very reasonably. Tyberdu frowned on the sidelines at this time, but he was powerless to solve this problem now, and now he had to solve the team's offense first, otherwise the game would be over directly.

The Knicks ran over again, and Li Feng also thought of the baseline position, but this time Split didn't give him this opportunity, and directly pushed Li Feng out. Li Feng can only go to the far waist position. I got the basketball at a distance from the basket.

When Li Feng arrived here, Dragic passed the ball directly to Li Feng, and Li Feng immediately turned into a three-threat posture to face Split.

Split is taller than Li Feng, but Li Feng knows it. He is not as agile as himself, and he can move and fight.

Li Feng thought about it like this, and deliberately came up with a trick, taking the ball to two very coquettish crotches in a row. Li Feng is tantamount to playing Split! Split was upset for a moment. As soon as he came up to harass, Li Feng immediately dribbled towards the basket with the ball.

At this time, Split and Duncan pounced on Li Feng at the same time, and Li Feng faced a double interior defense.

At this time, Li Feng jumped up and wanted to pass the ball. But the moment he jumped to get the ball, Li Feng suddenly felt that the Spurs' double interior defense was not terrible. Neither guy has a jump height of more than 40 centimeters, they are in position, but the space above their heads is not completely sealed.

Thinking like this, Li Feng made a strong push in the air, came to a long-distance pull-up shot, paused in the air, threw the basketball towards the rebound with his right hand.

Li Feng's ball was absolutely unreasonable, and it was a reluctant shot at all. However, Li Feng's reluctance was to deal with Duncan and Split's unfavorable air, and the basketball thrown by Li Feng rubbed against the rebound, and then obediently fell into the Spurs' basket.

Li Feng scored such a difficult goal, even though this was the ATT Arena, there were still voices of admiration on both sides of the court.

At this time, Reggie Miller also had to laugh on the sidelines:

"Li Feng's ball, it's too difficult! It's indescribable to hit the ball that way. ”

Mark Jackson lamented the unreasonable domineering of Li Feng's offense here, but Jeff Van Gundy said on the sidelines:

Li Feng hit Split twice in a row, although the latter time Li Feng looked difficult. But he did it after all, which shows that Split can't put a lot of pressure on Li Feng. If it were my manager, I would have considered a substitution in the number four position. If Li Feng can't be blocked, the holes of the Spurs will inevitably get bigger and bigger. ”

Van Gundy is a dogmatic manager who has no room for sand in his eyes. But he can't be like a wave. Povic is so single-mindedly in control of the team, which is his sadness.

Wave. Povich and Van Gundy took different paths. Povich is a manager who values harmony and is more able to get along with the light. So even if he sees Split a little difficult now, but in the case of not being fatal, he still has to use Split.

The Knicks finally improved, but the Spurs didn't reduce the intensity of their offense to the Knicks' half.

Spurs immediately execute the wave again. Povic's tactic was to score near the basket, but this time it was Leonard who carried out the task.

When Leonard was close to the basket, he scored through Rose's hook hand, and Li Feng and Rose couldn't take care of this scoring method at all. Leonard hooked and hit again, and now this Spurs is not only a team that plays reasonably, but also super good luck.

Some difficult balls, Spurs have mastered them all. At this time, the Knicks seem to have no chance of overtaking at all, and all they can do at this time is to bite the Spurs to the death and prevent the Spurs from expanding the game.

And now the task of biting the spurs to the death. But it fell on Li Feng, and it was even more difficult for Li Feng to run over this time and get stuck in the position.

He stuck in a position farther than the last time, so when Li Feng received a pass from Dragic, he immediately leaned two steps towards the basket with his gravitational muscles, shortened the distance a little, and then passed back to Dragic.

Dragic took the ball to Li Feng's thoughts, took the ball and passed the basketball to Li Feng's hands.

Li Feng took the ball for the second time and saw that his distance was almost there, and with the distance, Li Feng passed the first two attacks, and he knew that it was effective to hit Split and Duncan in fast movement.

So he took the ball. immediately made a feint to turn over and break through the bottom line, Li Feng had already hit the bottom line twice in a row, and Split naturally moved to the bottom line. Li Feng happened to move towards it at this time, and when Split reacted and stuck to the front, Li Feng just used the reaction force of colliding with Split to jump backwards with one foot, using a golden rooster independent action commonly used by Nowitzki.

Spread your opponent with your feet and knees, then use your bouncing to jump far back, taking advantage of the momentum to gently move the basketball towards the basket.

Li Feng Golden Rooster is independent. The basketball flew high and landed in the Spurs' hoop.

Another difficult move! Another thrilling score.

The exclamation of the ATT arena sounded quietly again, and Jeff Van Gundy, a rational person, now has no choice but to shake his head on the sidelines and say:

"It was a mistake to let Li Feng get close to the basket. Li Feng handled this kind of ball too well. Split really has no way to take Li Feng. ”

"Yes! Li Feng is becoming more and more magical, this guy is now evolving beyond imagination. ”

Reggie Miller was also a little suppressed by Li Feng.

Li Feng started to play the No. 4 position and hit three balls in a row. The difficulty of each ball is extremely high, and each ball is thrilling, but Li Feng hit it.

At this time, Li Feng gave people the feeling. It's just that you can shoot any difficult ball.

In this way, the Spurs switched to get the ball, and the waves. Povich finally couldn't help it and began to call a timeout.

At this point, the difference between the two sides was still 11 points, and the two teams entered a relative stalemate, which was a victory for the Knicks, but a step backwards for the Spurs.

Now wave. Povic called a timeout, he didn't adjust the offensive tactics, just changed a person, he replaced Split, who played three times in a row for Li Feng, and replaced it with a more physical player DeJuan Blair.

DeJuan Blair is definitely a little shorter than Split, but he is young, athletic, and has more pressure on the defensive end than Split.

Wave. Povic is pinning his hopes on DeJuan Blair to defend Li Feng better, and now the Knicks' only existing scoring point If Li Feng is fired, then the Spurs can celebrate the victory in advance today.

The Spurs substitutions are over, and De Juan Blair's Spurs are replaced, and it is inevitable that the overall operation will be inferior to Fang Cai.

After all, Dejuan Blair doesn't have as much experience as Split, and he doesn't have that consistent mid-range.

So the Spurs played again, and they played more restrained. After Parker and Duncan made a high-post pick-and-roll, Parker walked outside the three-point line and suddenly pulled it back to Duncan Duncan to take the ball between the lines and brush it towards the Knicks' rebound. It's two points again!

Duncan's score was still inconspicuous, and he scored lightly and skillfully.

The Spurs' firepower has continued, and by this time the pressure is still on the Knicks' side, as long as the Knicks don't score, the point difference will immediately widen.

In this round, JR Smith couldn't help but take the ball and wanted to shoot himself, but as soon as he moved, he immediately fell into the Spurs' defensive trap and almost lost the ball.

Fortunately, this guy was still a little anxious, and at the moment of crisis, he passed the ball to Li Feng, who was waiting for the bottom line.

Li Feng took the ball and the opposite became DeJuan Blair. In this way, in order to test his opponent, Li Feng came up and first leaned towards DeJuan Blair.

See if you can rely on Blair, Li Feng leaned on it, and immediately found that Blair was the legendary little steel cannon. With his own ability, he can't rely on Blair, which shows how strong this person's body is.

Li Feng bumped into it and found that the opponent was very confrontational. Li Feng immediately turned around and wanted to use his speed to fight.

Li Feng is the foundation of a small forward, and his speed is still faster than Blair. One turned around and let Blair take half a step, Li Feng got up and wanted to shoot, but as soon as Li Feng looked up here, the opponent DeJuan Blair flew.

Mark Blair overreacted when he saw Li Feng only make three consecutive difficult shots. This kind of opportunity was given to Li Feng, and Li Feng naturally leaned forward and then shot.

The referee's whistle blew, and Li Feng's shot also fell into the Spurs' basket.

Wave. When Povich saw this result, he immediately shook his head depressedly. It's okay not to change people, but instead of changing people, people play a 2+1.

Li Feng hit 2+1 again and scored in 4 consecutive rounds. It can be said that Li Feng carried the team alone in the most difficult moment for the Knicks.

What is the core of the team? It's just that the team is in trouble, and everyone else can't, and he can carry the team forward. That's the core!

Today, Li Feng fully interpreted the meaning of this core, starting from the beginning of playing the No. 4 position, Li Feng scored points in several rounds in a row.

Finally supported the Knicks' most dangerous period, and the Spurs' main force is undoubtedly strong. But for many years, Spurs have relied on five men to play. Their bench lineup is actually not very good at all.

At this time, there are only Mills, Gary Neal, and DeJuan Blair in the Spurs' bench lineup. Danny Green et al.

Note that these players are only showing their talents now, and their talents have not been fully developed.

So once the Spurs start the rotation, the Knicks can finally take a breather. Tyberdu was ruthless and extended the playing time of the main force for a while, and finally let the score chase to 8 points. Only then did the main force be replaced!

The Knicks' bench players began to fight with the Spurs' bench players in the dark. The Knicks' bench side has Livingston, Belinelli, Parsons and so on. So it didn't hurt to be on the bench against the Spurs.

At 3 minutes and 29 seconds. It was the Knicks who took the lead in starting to make substitutions, and Tyberdu replaced Li Feng first.

At this time, the Knicks scored 34 points, the Spurs scored 43 points, and the Spurs led the Knicks by 9 points. Taberdu used Li Feng early to chase the score a little more. Tyberdo's goal is very obvious, but Bo. Povich's side did not rush to change the main force.

Although the Spurs' main five tigers play fiercely, they are all too old and must control the time they play.

You can't use these old guys like lads, plus the Spurs' bench lineup is not of high quality. The powerful Spurs also have weaknesses, and they are not trained to become a golden bell cover iron cloth shirt.

Li Feng returned to the court, and it didn't take much effort to finally shorten the score to about 5 points in more than a minute.

At this point in the field, the waves. Povich unhurriedly moved their old guys onto the pitch.

Tyberdu also hurriedly replaced his substitute player, but he replaced J.R. Smith with Belineri.

J.R. Smith has been around for a long time, and it is time for him to go down and rest.

As soon as the main force of the Spurs came up, it was really like two teams with Fang Cai, and the Spurs' substitute players were a swarm of young people, and they were all fierce when they played.

But the main force of the Spurs came up with five sinister old ball skins, which were called a slippery one, which was simply silky and supple.

This time, the Spurs came up and started to play from the inside, Duncan attracted the bag in the low post, and Split who passed the ball in the high post, Split did not catch the ball with both hands, and slapped the basketball into the hands of Leonard on the baseline with one hand. Leonard took the ball and played a very fancy hook move, spun his hand, and brushed the basketball towards the rebound, and the basketball fell cleanly into the basket.

The Spurs played a triangle pass in the Knicks' small box, and this ability to cooperate is nothing short of demonic.

The Spurs easily scored points when they came up, and Li Feng originally wanted to replicate the offensive touch in the first quarter, but after he got rid of Split, the clear position was much better than in the first quarter. But the shot also missed.

Li Feng's feel is gone!

Just when Li Feng was very depressed in his heart, he felt that he would definitely be pulled away by the Spurs this time.

The Spurs played a very beautiful combination to the Knicks in the half, and Parker was completely open in the bottom corner, but he didn't shoot the basket.

Li Feng and Spurs' shooting rates have decreased, and Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief at this time, this is the normal level of shooting rate.

Whether it is Li Feng or Spurs, they are playing too crazy, which makes people start to not adapt to the normal level of shooting rate.

The Spurs missed a three-pointer, the Knicks received the rebound, and Dragic quickly pushed over to hit the Spurs' fast break. But the Spurs don't look old, but they retreat very quickly, and they don't leave the Knicks with any chance.

In this case, Dragic still left the ball to Li Feng to deal with, and Li Feng's position at this time was still very poor.

Split has too much experience, and the position he left for Li Feng is not good. In such a position, Li Feng himself doesn't feel good, he is a little confused.

Just when Li Feng slipped away a little, Split came up with a steal out of nowhere.

suddenly clicked on Li Feng's ball and dropped the basketball. Li Feng was taken aback by such a little and hurried to grab the ball.

But Split fought harder than Li Feng, and he jumped out of the mermaid to grab the ball. Li Feng was slow in the end, and the basketball was grabbed by Split all of a sudden, this guy is really good, he can still pass the ball while lying on the ground. (To be continued......)
