Chapter 126: Fighting the Iron Army Alone
Chapter 126 Fighting the Iron Army Alone
Li Feng is the core player of the team, especially now, the only strong teammate Al Harrington is not there, and almost all the Knicks players pass the ball to Li Feng's hands after receiving the ball.
However, Li Feng's solo invasion of Longtan at the last moment of the first quarter played a role in startling the snake, and the Jazz players defended Li Feng more tightly and roughly, and Li Feng never had a chance to break into the paint area.
Time passed minute by minute, and it was already seven minutes after the fourth quarter, and the score gap on the court was still about ten points.
The Jazz hold a big lead. Sloan's heart in the coach's box was relaxed, and in his opinion, his tactical arrangement had achieved most of the success, and he only needed to hold on for a few more minutes to win the game, and this year's Jazz may be Sloan's last chance.
The Knicks' offense was entirely initiated by Li Feng alone, and the role of others was minimal, and only Gallinari could contain a Jazz defender.
And the Jazz's defensive system is indeed perfect, CJ Myers has been replaced by Russian Kirilenko at this time, Kirilenko plus Brewer's wheel defense can greatly limit Li Feng's play.
However, Kirilenko is physically stronger than Miles, but he is far inferior to Li Feng, and his bounce and explosiveness are not as good as Li Feng. A volleyball smash action pressed the basketball into the hoop, while Jazz power forward Boozer could only surrender with his hands raised.
It took less than a second from Corey's pass to Li Feng's dunk, and the ball was only a two-point score, but the effect was like an earth-shattering shock.
The players and all the fans were stunned by Li Feng's goal of pulling onions on dry land.
Wow! All the fans stood up! Wow! Jazz fans also stood up! The difference is that Knicks fans are thrilled and Jazz fans are shocked.
"This goal is like a dry field being moistened by rain, Jazz's defense is great, but it still can't prevent the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Jazz be careful, the Tyrannosaurus Rex haunts the court!"
D'Antoni, who was almost desperate, seemed to be stimulated by Li Feng's attack, he jumped up, D'Antoni almost cried with happiness, how much he needed a victory now.
Jazz head coach Sloan also made a lot of waves in his heart, this rookie really can't be described as a rookie, is the Jazz's defense very poor?
Of course not, the Jazz's defense is one of the best in the league, although Kirilenko is no longer the Jazz boss of the year, but the defensive skills are still there, and he can't stop Li Feng from scoring.
Seeing that the dawn of victory was about to be seen, the Jazz suddenly became a little discouraged, and the Knicks took the opportunity to strengthen the defense, creating three fast-break opportunities, and in a few rounds, the Jazz's lead was only 4 points.
Sloan didn't stubbornly wait for the Jazz to be overtaken by the Knicks before he reacted, and immediately called a timeout.
Since the defense can't limit Li Feng at this time, it can't rely entirely on defense, anyway, the Knicks' defense is worse, at this time Sloan made adjustments to the position of the personnel on the court, Carlos Boozer was put on the bench, replaced by "Rice God" Paul Millsap, a more active defensive guy.
The Jazz's attack is very sharp, and it really fights, although D'Antoni also raised the defense a little at this time, but he was still sifted by the opponent's madness, and the game suddenly became intense and exciting in the last few minutes.
The attacking and defensive tempo of both sides was fast-paced, with fans chanting and fans cheering on their teams for both home and away teams. …,
The Knicks' defense is the same patience, they are not afraid of the Jazz offense, what they are afraid of is that the Jazz do not attack desperately, as long as the Jazz tempo is accelerated, Li Feng's speed and passing are deadly weapons in the counterattack, and it only takes a blink of an eye to make the opponent die under the Knicks' counterattack.
Small ball tactics, sometimes it's just so sharp!
Li Feng alone made the Jazz suffer, although Kirilenko and Millsap both returned to defend near the paint, but every charge of Gallinari and Hughes can almost make the Jazz fans' hearts speed up once.
The heart activity was too intense to make Sloan's brain a little undersupplied, and he originally thought that no matter how strong the Knicks' offense was, without Harrington, it would never be as smooth as before, but the Knicks' zero pass was like a gorgeous version of Stockton.
Every seemingly random pass can accurately pass to the most comfortable place for his teammates, Sloan is also a player, he can't think of how a person's inside player's pass can be so accurate, it simply means where to play, with such a pass, the power of the striker when counterattacking is not only doubled, but also increased by at least two or three times.
But Sloan could only hold on, he had been holding on for so many years, and his heart had already turned iron.
Although the Jazz defended the Knicks very hard, they could barely support it, but Li Feng suddenly changed direction and passed to Corey on the inside, and the Jazz's defense finally couldn't support it, and their outside line stared at Hughes and the Knicks, and Corey had enough space to play a single Oku one-on-one.
At this moment, all eyes are focused on Corey who has the ball, this dead fat man is even more miraculous than Randolph this season, D'Antoni is just unavailable, but he seized the opportunity and exploded with an average of 20 points per game that year.
He has performed well a few times before and after, but with the opponent's focus on him, he has not performed too well in the last few games, which is one of the reasons for the Knicks' ups and downs, can the Knicks trust him today?
Corey is indeed very fat, but his speed is not as slow as people think, and his skills are not rough brother-type, under the basket he uses his body explosiveness to eat Oku, Oku does not hesitate to choose the first option between fouls and losing points, he hugged Corey directly, although he did not fully hug Corey but destroyed Corey's body balance, Corey staggered two steps into the paint area, and ran to the basket Deron Williams held the ball in his arms.
At this moment, everyone's eyes have shifted to the referee Ferdinand, his blowing penalty today is a bit off, this ball, how will he judge it?
Ferdinand only ran from the middle circle position at this time to start his clumsy performance, he actually blew an offensive foul, and suddenly all the Knicks fans waved their arms angrily and shouted angrily, D'Antoni jumped up, even if he was sent off, he had to point to Ferdinand's scalp and ask him if he remembered the basketball rules clearly, but at this time, the cunning Ferdinand tuned the video replay just now.
The big screen at the scene also played back what he just said, this ball, Corey is a strong attack, physical confrontation is inevitable, and when Corey exerts his strength, Oku just stands on the edge of a reasonable collision area, of course, Oku has not fully stood firm before Corey makes a force, it can be said that the referee has a degree of freedom in this ball, and there is a reason to judge the Knicks for offensive fouls The whole court fell into silence, D'Antoni's mouth was open, and he only had time to scold half of the words, and the Knicks fans also sat down, and only a few extreme fans scolded.
