Chapter 783: Reversal of the Situation
Now even Li Feng is starting to make mistakes here, which shows the danger of the Pelicans, the Bobcats seem to be killing like a whirlwind, and Li Feng is not defending Douglas Roberts.
The Bobcats simply let Kemba Walker start attacking with the ball in the backcourt, in terms of organizational ability, Kemba Walker's ability is average, but at this time the Bobcats don't need much organization.
Their style of play was simpler, with Kemba Walker coming in with the ball and finding no gaps, and it was at this point that Cordilleze suddenly got stuck in the low post.
Seeing that his teammates had already taken the spot, Kemba Walker immediately split the basketball.
Cordilleze's offensive skills are very rough, but the Pelicans' defensive ability is not very good at this defensive player arranged behind him today, and Al Thornton is now the Pelicans' power forward.
As a big forward in the small-ball system, Althornton is fast enough, long enough, and comprehensive enough, but the only deficiency is that the defensive ability of the interior is still different, not that he is not active, but that his height is not enough.
Cordileze stood in front of him, a head taller than Thornton, and now that the entire Bobcats were at a tipping point, the small universe was about to explode.
After Cordilleze received the ball, it was a rough elbow movement, and then the whole body turned around, ran over Thornton, and smashed a dunk directly on the Pelicans' basket.
Thornton's defense was completely broken, the Pelicans were chased by the Bobcats in a row, and the Pelicans who played by the Bobcats here could hardly find any power to fight back, and the continuous chasing points, now the scores of the two teams are good, from 10 points, to 6 points in an instant.
At this time, the fans at the Time Warner Center Arena were even more enthusiastic, and the whole stadium was cheering, but Van Gundy was within 2 minutes. A timeout was called again, at which point Van Gundy finally came to his senses.
The Pelicans lost, not because of the defense, but because the kittens of the Bobcats began to go berserk, and the passive and passive defense against the mad beasts could no longer work, and the only most effective way was to use offense to destroy their confidence.
Van Gundy immediately replaced Al Thornton off the court, and Millsap, who had the best appearance in the first half, was replaced on the court, and then he repeatedly instructed his players not to take their shots lightly. More options for tough breaks, and at the very least, free throws.
At this time, the pelican no longer wants to easily press the lynx to death, but prepares for a hard battle, so that the bobcat flies, and the pelican must pay the price.
The Pelicans are painstakingly preparing to regain the initiative of the game, but the Bobcats players, amid the cheers of the fans, the blood began to heat up.
These young players of the Bobcats. The blood is starting to boil, and in the final stanza, they aim to reverse the Pelicans.
After the timeout, the two teams returned to the pitch. The opening game was the Pelicans' ball, Li Feng took the ball outside the Bobcats' three-point line, Van Gundy let the team break through, and now the Pelicans' strongest breakthrough ability is himself. At this time, Li Feng had no intention of backing down.
After he dribbled himself, he began to look for opportunities in the Bobcats' half, and now Bobcats' point guard Douglas Roberts has not been replaced. On the inside is Biyombo and Kodilesze defending.
Li Feng faced Douglas Roberts's rise and weight deficiency, and Biyombo and Kodilezer on the inside can only be regarded as mediocre, which gives Li Feng the feeling that his breakthrough pressure is not great at all.
In the face of Roberts, Li Feng didn't intend to call it cover at all, and when he broke through from the top of the arc alone, the action should be as fast as possible, the shorter the time, the better, and it is best to have a strong suddenness.
Li Feng dribbled over, only dribbled the ball horizontally twice, and suddenly turned around and ran over Roberts with his body, knowing that it was definitely a way that Roberts couldn't defend, and his two steps were not as big as Li Feng's, and they were still such fierce movements.
Roberts was immediately left behind by Li Feng, who got rid of Roberts and pounced on the Bobcats as if he were a tiger.
At this time Albert yelled:
"The Pelicans really started to fight back, they started to fight back, this counterattack started with Li Feng, he turned around and passed Roberts cleanly, and rushed towards the Bobcats' interior line, and the Bobcats' interior line has no top defenders at all, they don't have such players at all."
Li Feng turned around in one step and passed Roberts is so light, even Li Feng himself didn't believe it, and Biyombo and Codileser in front of him didn't put enough pressure on him, Li Feng jumped between the two of them, and then Li Feng faced a half corner that leaked out of the Bobcats basket.
At this time, Li Feng himself believed that the ball had to go in, he did not choose to dunk, but chose to make a small throw with his right hand, Li Feng stretched out the basketball, and the movement was soft as if it was a dance.
But Li Feng didn't notice that there was a beast in ambush beside him, and almost at the moment when Li Feng made a move, a real fly suddenly sprang up from behind Li Feng, and McKekey flew up like an eagle and flew straight into the sky.
caught up with Li Feng's basketball, McKekey stretched out his hand, and when the basketball almost reached its highest point, he jerked suddenly, and the basketball was directly pulled out by Smith.
This is a slap in the face of a loud block, the basketball came out of the bottom line, Li Feng looked at the hand in the sky in dismay, and looked at the person flying from behind him in astonishment, it was McKeeki!
At this time, the Time Warner Center Arena was in an uproar, the fans at home cheered collectively, and Albert opened his mouth to speak, only Blevin Knight was shouting loudly:
"Good ball, beautiful, it's a beautiful cap, the movement of the body in the air is more elegant than ballet, more explosive than the ball, I like this ball, it's just amazing."
The arena has now become a sea of joy, Li Feng shook his head in annoyance, this hat was not wronged at all, from the time he started to attack, he did not count McKekey in it, and from the beginning he missed a tough point in defense of the Bobcats.
McKekey is taking advantage of his often forgotten height to hide behind all the defenses, and then use extraordinary bounce power to solve the opponent's offense, which is the most important reason why he can appear on the block list every year.
Van Gundy hadn't thought about it either. The Bobcats played such a strong defense at such a critical moment, and even Li Feng's layup was blocked.
This time the form was even worse, the Pelicans restarted the ball from the sideline, but unfortunately Rose hit the Bobcats' wall and still didn't put the basketball into the basket.
When the rebound was picked up by the Bobcats, the Bobcats fans were cheering, and the resentment that had been holding in the chests of the Bobcats fans at this time was finally vented, and now we are going to rewrite the score.
At this time, even Douglas Roberts of the Bobcats ran wildly. He didn't have the ability to do one-on-one confrontation with Li Feng, so he played hide and seek with Li Feng back and forth between the Bobcat players.
In this kind of game of hide and seek, the shorter and thinner the player, the more gaps there are, and for a big man like Li Feng, there are many gaps, which are dead ends that cannot be drilled through at all.
Li Feng also lost Roberts after the attack failed, and Oladipo on the side hurriedly made up for it. But Oladipo's height is not good at defending short individuals like Douglas Roberts.
Roberts rolled over at Oladipo's feet, like a bean. Disrupted the Pelicans' interior line, and then suddenly passed the ball to Biyombo who was standing in the high post, and Biyombo was a civilian blue-collar player in the Bobcats.
No one in the Pelicans paid attention to this guy, but it was such a guy. On such a key ball as the Pelicans and Bobcats, he actually shot decisively, and Al Jefferson, who was defending him at this time. Still on the inside, he never thought Biyombo would shoot.
But Biyomber just shot, and he shot crisply, at this time the Bobcats erupted like a flame, and the Time Warner Center Arena applauded, and the Bobcats suddenly closed the score to 4 points.
The Bobcats players ran over and hung on Biyombo, and the Pelicans really had a feeling that the momentum was gone, and the damage they inflicted on the Hornets in the last game was repaid so quickly.
Li Feng felt that his heart was cold, as if Biyongbo did not throw a basketball, but a javelin pierced his chest, and the whole chest was cold and cold, as if frozen together.
can't concentrate their attention, and Li Feng has encountered this situation for the first time, this is the first time he has encountered such a situation as a core, and the first time he has been chased so urgently.
Breathing is no longer free, and at this time, the Bobcats are already shouting on the court, Li Feng received the basketball from the backcourt, trying to calm his mood as much as possible, and calm down his body and mind.
But it really couldn't be quiet, and the surrounding qiē seemed to be shaking, gritting his teeth, dribbling slowly, and trying to protect the basketball with his body.
At this time, the role of psychology began to play, the whole person was very nervous, the muscles that could not be controlled were spasming, Li Feng controlled the basketball, and kept telling himself in his heart, don't make mistakes, don't make mistakes, this time is the easiest to make mistakes.
At this time, Li Feng understood why there were so many mistakes at the most critical moment of the finals, and there were so many balls that looked relatively low-level and would make people feel sorry when they thought about it, because they were too nervous at this moment.
It's still an ordinary regular season, and I feel a little nervous!
Li Feng came over with the basketball, carefully protecting the basketball, Li Feng still did not plan to give up on hitting the nail of Xiao Xiaosi at this time, Li Feng still did not call cover, but relied on his own strength, suddenly accelerated, and directly pressed Douglas Roberts with his body.
Roberts judged Li Feng's breakthrough, but he had no way to stop it, Li Feng directly crushed Roberts, and then Codileser understood the help defense, as a wall, and first resisted Li Feng.
McKekey followed up behind, ready to fan Li Feng again when Li Feng made a move.
The defense of the Bobcats here has become a system, the momentum of a team is up, everything will go in a good direction, Li Feng really didn't dare to shoot lightly at this time, to this point, he quickly passed the basketball to the hands of Rose in the bottom corner, breaking through the ball.
The Bobcats are building momentum right now, both offensively and defensively. The concentration was increasing, and when the basketball was in Rose's hands, Kemba Walker immediately pounced on Rose, and this defensive rotation was considered timely.
But Rose calmly passed the basketball to Oladipo above, and Oladipo calmly shot outside the three-point line, scored 3 points, and hit.
Oladipo's three-pointer was really a send-off in the snow, and it suddenly stabilized the Pelicans' military heart and stretched the score to 7 points. At the level of 7 points, the pelicans can control it.
The Pelicans' score will be relieved all of a sudden, and Li Feng's heart will suddenly fall into his chest, with these 7 points, slowly play a dozen, the morale of the Pelicans team will slow back, and the strength will be fully exerted, and at that time, it will be easy for the Pelicans to win.
Li Feng thinks so. But Elvis Presley Kemba Walker didn't want that to happen, and Kemba Walker, including the head coach of the Bobcats, Slive Crawford, knew it.
How they drove the Pelicans to this point was by relying on when the Pelicans were napping. Suddenly launched a fierce attack, suppressed the pelican and then caught up, if the pelican eased up at this time, the lynx would not have a chance. So the Pelicans must not be allowed to slow down.
What can be done to suppress the pelican, only a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye. Kemba Walker had always been a more sedate fellow, but at this point he knew he had to take a risk.
Their own team must suppress the Pelicans, otherwise everything will be in vain like a river, this is not a lore, but it is like a lore, this is a goal that determines the mental state and mental situation of the players of both teams.
Kemba Walker asked for the ball in the second half, which was a very unusual move, and Li Feng paid attention to it at the time, and he looked at Kemba Walker there while defending Roberts.
Kemba Walker had just passed halfway through and called a high cover two steps away from the Pelicans' three-point position, which was so unusual that Kemba Walker had never done it before.
Immediately Li Feng was alert, Cordilleze came from behind and directly attached Oladipo to give Kemba Walker a cover, Kemba Walker used such a cover to pounce directly with the ball.
Li Feng finally knew what he was going to do, this was a three-point shot, he wanted a retaliatory three-pointer, which was too rare for Kemba Walker, but it really happened at this time.
Li Feng hurriedly pounced, he was about to block Kemba Walker, but something unexpected happened, Kemba Walker didn't seem to plan to shoot at the edge of the three-point line at all, and he jumped up a big step away from the three-point line.
Li Feng was so far away that he could only jump up as much as possible to interfere with the opponent's shooting, Kemba Walker threw the basketball out soothingly, such a distance seemed easy for him, watching Kemba Walker shoot the basket with perseverance on the opposite side of his own one step away,
Li Feng's defense was only threatening, one step away was enough for a top shooter to complete a qiē, and Kemba Walker's shot, as if it was popular, had power and impact, smashed into the back edge of the Pelicans' basket, and then crashed into the basket.
In an instant, the little advantage that the Pelicans had just achieved and the situation that had just stabilized were pulled back to the starting point by Kemba Walker, the rhythm of the Bobcats.
At this time, the cold of the pelicans did not get rid of it, but worsened a little, and the Bobcats became more and more enthusiastic, because they believed that they could do something as long as they wanted to.
4 points, not worth mentioning.
The Bobcats called a timeout at this point, and they began to actively adjust, seemingly preparing for the final comeback, and the Pelicans players returned to their benches to start preparing.
After experiencing the opening few games, the first Li Feng failed at a critical moment and did not effectively support the team, which is a problem that the Pelicans will have to face sooner or later.
The key now is whether Li Feng can use his containment to create opportunities for his teammates, and whether his teammates can shoot the crucial goals.
The first experience, the state of being chased, can be said to have a sense of urgency, but the second time you experience this situation, you will feel numb, and once the person's experience increases, it will not be so sensitive.
At this time, Li Feng's mentality was much more stable just now, and when he arrived outside the three-point line of the Bobcats, Roberts immediately stood on Li Feng's side.
The first two times Li Feng found a breakthrough from his body, but this time Li Feng hadn't moved yet, and he had already added his own caution.
Li Feng saw that Roberts began to guard against himself in advance, so he called Millsap to come over to help him block it, and now in this situation, no matter what, he wants to mess up the inside defense of the Bobcats first.
Only in this way will the team have more opportunities, as soon as Millsap came up, Cordilezer also followed, Li Feng bypassed Millsap's side, Cordillezer immediately grabbed up, wanted to resist Li Feng with his body, and made a wall for McKekey who came up behind, so that McKee could block Li Feng.
Li Feng dribbled here, and he also knew that he must not attack too presumptuously at will, and now the Bobcat has designed a full set, that is, to deal with his own breakthrough, and he must not rush up stupidly.
The most important thing for the breakthrough is the choice of route, the choice of route made in a split second will have a very important impact on the game, Li Feng saw Cordilezer's intention, suddenly the whole body paused, slowed down and then stopped.
Li Feng went from a high-speed breakthrough to a twist and turned into an attack with a back basket, this time the cooperation between McKeki and Cordillezer failed, Li Feng stuck Cordillezer with his back, a false shake, and then immediately leaned back for a jumper.
Completely unprepared, Cordilleze was eaten on the back of a player shorter than him, and Li Feng's ball landed briskly into the Bobcats' basket. (To be continued......)
