Chapter 491: A Mess of Trouble

Li Feng was a lot more serious here, and in the Wizards' half, the Knicks still focused on hitting the opponent's interior.

Who made the Wizards both inside shorts! In this kind of life-and-death place, you have to catch the opponent's weakness and fight to the death.

In the last round, the Knicks played Monroe, and this round came over, and the Knicks began to play Cousins.

Cousins came up and formed a double cover with Monroe in the high post, Cousins suddenly turned towards the air, at this time Dragic was passing the ball, Cousins received the ball, raised his big hand, and brushed down two points.

Cousins' cunning cut, and Trevor Booker's American-style center, are indeed a little difficult to adapt.

"The Knicks' tactics so far have been very clear, which is to play the Wizards' short interior first. On the whole, this is indeed a good way to keep it safe! ”

Joan Barry also found a way for the Knicks to play at this time and made it public.

Just as Joanbari was talking, Wall got the ball in the backcourt and suddenly made a fast break.

Wall had been pushing slowly for the first two rounds, but at this time he suddenly accelerated and Dragic didn't follow.

Li Feng hurriedly chased after him from the side to assist in defense, and at this time, Wall faced Li Feng who was catching up, changed direction with one hand, and then immediately took a step in the opposite direction, and took a step to the other side to make a layup.

Wall was marching rapidly, and suddenly came a European step, and Li Feng couldn't be saved after taking a feint here.

Wall made a long-distance layup to "brush" the Wizards and scored another 2 points, and the Wizards scored two three-pointers and a fast break at the beginning, all of which were on the outside, compared with the Knicks, the Wizards' tactics were completely different.

8-4, the Wizards unknowingly led the Knicks by 4 points. At this time, Li Feng needs to stand up and support the team.

The Knicks hit again, and Li Feng immediately went to the wing to get into the position.

The Wizards' current defense of Li Feng is Bradley Beal, who is also a professional defensive player. But Beal is a defensive player who lacks some of the necessary aggression for defensive players. In other words, a defensive player has to have a bit of a bad heart in order to be a top defender. Defenders who can't walk on the edge of fouls and non-fouls, defenders who can't stimulate the opponent's mentality, and defenders who don't enter the realm.

Bradley Beal is this kind of defender, although he is very tough and hard defensively, but he is not as skilled as Batildo, and his bad intentions are not enough to make the opponent want to die, so he is always inferior in terms of defenders.

is just a step behind, and Li Feng seems to be at ease. Li Feng got the basketball, his shoulders shook slightly, and suddenly he turned around and broke through the bottom line.

Li Feng resisted the opponent to the back of his body in one step, and Li Feng passed Bill in one step.

Trevor Booker of the Wizards inside hurriedly pounced to defend, Trevor Booker's position was good, but Li Feng was not afraid of him, because Trevor Booker was not tall.

Li Feng simply jumped up directly and confronted Trevorbuk in the air, and Trevobuk and Li Feng collided together in the air.

Li Feng resisted hard, and Trevorbuk fell first. Li Feng took advantage of the trend to wipe the board, and Li Feng also broke through the bottom line and scored 2 points.

8-6, Li Feng shot to help the team bite the score.

But Li Feng only scored 2 points on his side, and the Wizards came over unhurriedly. Wall threw the basketball into Nene Hilario's hand.

David used almost the same offensive move as Monroe, a catch feint, a dribble step feint, and then a sudden hook shot.

Nene Hilario's offensive range is very similar to Jefferson's. Both men are good at mid-range and hook hands under the basket, but one is short but strong, and the other is tall and flexible.

Nene used an almost identical move on his side. But the results achieved are different. Jefferson still dodged the fight, Nene came up to play, and Monroe's defensive action played a little.

Not only did Nene score the ball, but he was also whistled for a foul by the referee, and Nene scored 2 points and hit a free throw when he went to the free throw line.

Li Feng only fought back here, and the Wizards came with a 2+1, and the Wizards actually suppressed the Knicks in playing.

11-6, the Wizards still lead the Knicks by 5 points, and the Knicks are actually suppressed at home, which is a bit incredible.

The Wizards came back for another 2+1, and at this time, Tyberdu finally called a timeout.

When Tyberdu called a timeout, Wizards head coach Sanders was very happy, and he thought that Tyberdu would adjust his offensive strategy, because now in the situation, the Wizards have the advantage.

Director Zhang also said in China:

"Tyberdu called a timeout, and he may have to adjust his tactics."

The whole world thinks so, but after a 20-second pause, the first tactic of the Knicks in the opening game was still to hit the ball into the hands of Monroe in the left waist.

Monroe played Nene Hilario at this time, but he still gave full play to his height advantage, took the ball and turned around for a probing step, opening up the space, and Monroe shot a mid-range shot or a shot.

The Wizards then played a mid-range game, but turned around, and Li Feng came back to beat the Wizards' basket again.

At this time in the game, everyone saw that the Knicks were pursuing a strategy of letting the Wizards play no matter how they played, and I stood still.

Today, the Knicks grabbed the Wizards' interior line to play, which made Sanders a little depressed, because the Knicks bit him so much, he had no chance to mess up the situation.

In the last three minutes of the first quarter, the Wizards led the Knicks by 2 points at 18-16, and the Knicks were gradually about to catch up with the score.

At this time, both teams gradually replaced the bench players, and the Knicks naturally still used Livingston, Smith and Vucevic as the core of the bench. The Wizards, on the other hand, went on with Templeley, Jordan Crawford, Trevor Ariza, Seraphim and Singleton.

The Wizards' bench lineup, although short and not well-known, has a good offensive power, and it has not fallen behind at all in the bench competition with the Knicks.

At the end of the first quarter, the two teams tied 25-25, and although the Knicks encountered the suppression of the Wizards in the first quarter, they slowly caught up.

At the end of the first quarter, Director Zhang also changed his tune. said to Yang Yi in the live broadcast room:

"In the first quarter, the Knicks were completely unaffected by the Wizards, although the Wizards' offense played well, but I just stuck to my own strategy, and slowly caught up after the end. The current Knicks are indeed mature. ”

"A team that can stick to its own style from start to finish is a sign of maturity!"

Coach Zhang said that he would adjust before, but now he praises the Knicks for sticking to the style of the game.

In the first quarter, the Wizards played really well, but they still didn't overturn the Knicks and took advantage of the Knicks, mainly because the Knicks adhered to the established strategy and played the Wizards' short interior line and naturally bit the score.

The second quarter of the game began, the ball of the Wizards. Jordan Crawford takes the ball and pushes it in. Because the Wizards are playing small ball, the team's position is very scattered, and all four players are standing outside the three-point line, and only one Seraphim is inside the three-point line to take the ball.

Crawford passed the ball to Seraphim, and then Crawford himself used Seraphim's cover to run to the bottom line, and in this position, Ingleton came up to Crawford to block it, and when Crawford ran from the bottom line to the wing, he easily received the ball, and Crawford, who got the basketball, immediately broke through to the penalty area with a fierce step.

Crawford is one of those aggressive defenders, and he breaks through one step at a time. When the Knicks naturally contracted, Crawford passed directly to Singleton, who pulled away to the bottom, and Singleton took the ball for a three-pointer at this time.

Singleton missed a three-pointer, and the Wizards' shooting percentage finally dropped a bit in the second quarter.

Singleton misses a three-pointer. The Knicks grabbed the rebound and pushed it steadily.

Today the Knicks played very solidly at the beginning, and it is the same now.

Once Livingston pushed in, the Knicks quickly opened up space. Smith and Belineri secured two corners, Vucevic was in the basket and Thornton went up to cover Livingston.

The Knicks' offensive routine isn't surprising. But the space is still very good, showing a very good tactical quality.

Livingston took advantage of Thornton's cover and quickly passed the ball to Vucevic, who took the ball near the box to try to rise and fall Singleton's lack of height, but the Wizards had a small lineup and came over very quickly to cover it.

Vucevic passed the ball out to Smith, who took the ball and the Wizards' defense arrived.

At this time, the benefits of the Wizards' small lineup are reflected, although the Wizards' lineup is small, but the speed is really fast, and the same is true in rotation defense.

The Knicks have played quite well from the high post to the combination of inside and outside. But he still didn't get rid of the Wizards' rotation, and Smith took the ball when he wanted to pass. There was a mistake in the pass, the ball went off the sideline, and the ball went to the Wizards' side.

The Wizards came over in the second round, playing almost the same stance and style of play as the first round, and the four of them scattered Seraphim in the middle.

Templey penetrated to the baseline and then suddenly ran out to catch the ball.

In the last round, Crawford took the ball and attacked directly, and this round Templey came up to get the basketball, walked around the high post for half a circle, but turned back and passed the ball to Ariza who received the ball in the low post.

Ariza took the ball and quickly turned around and projected, trying to get the ball on Pelineri's head, Belineri was not so easy to deal with, he got up and blocked, although it was not blocked to the ball, but Ariza's attack was also missed.

As soon as the second quarter began, both teams missed consecutive games, and the rhythm of the game was completely different from the first quarter.

The atmosphere was palpable to all, and the pace of the game changed, and the Knicks once again played the ball and the player who handled the ball became Smith.

Smith is also a defender with the ability to carry the ball, he took the ball all the way forward, did not move in the high post like Livingston, but took the ball to the flank, Smith attracted the opponent's attention to the flank, and then passed the ball to the following Belineri, who quickly passed the ball to Vucevic at the top of the arc.

Vucevic passed the ball to Livingston on the other side, and Livingston took the ball and saw that his path was blocked, and immediately turned back to pass the ball.

At this time, Smith ran from the baseline around the three-point line to the top of the arc, and he wanted to break through the moment he received the ball.

But today Smith seems to be a bit buttery, and he drops the ball again, and the opportunity to attack is wasted all of a sudden.

Fortunately, Livingston, who was fast and in good health, was next to Smith, and Livingston went over to snatch the ball back and pass it back to Smith.

Smith made two mistakes in front. At this time, he took the ball, but he passed a good ball, and the moment he got the ball, he passed the ball directly to the hands of Bellineri, who had just been exposed on the wing.

Belineri raised his hand for a three-pointer, "Brush!" "In the second quarter, it was the Knicks who scored first.

The Knicks' three-point shot finally came, but the Wizards were not afraid at this time, and the Wizards quickly took the ball and pushed it back forward.

The Wizards were very fast, and as soon as the ball came over, Crawford immediately took the ball and went head-to-head with Smith on the wing.

Smith's side was already aggressive defensively, but Crawford used his body to turn and pass Smith.

Thanks to Thornton's good positional sense of movement to block Crawford's path, Crawford could only pass the ball out to Templey on the perimeter.

Templey took the ball and threw a three-pointer directly from beyond the three-point line, but Templey's luck was not as good as that of Pele, and Templey missed a three-pointer.

But the basketball flew very far away. The ball actually jumped into the hands of the Wizards players again, and the Wizards lost the ball and regained it.

Templey jumped out of the basket to get the basketball again, but he didn't hold back, and the result of a breakthrough throw was still missed.

The Wizards have been scoreless for three rounds in a row, and the Knicks are also a team that is very good at counter-attacking.

Once the Wizards missed the shot, the Knicks immediately won the backcourt rebound and counterattacked directly.

The Knicks countered and Smith made another clever back-of-the-head pass to Vocevic, who immediately caused a foul on Singleton as soon as he got the ball, and Singleton's height was still too short after all. It's a bit reluctant to play the No. 4 position, but the Wizards' five fouls are far from here at this time.

The Knicks only had the ball, the basketball was back on the fire, and Livingston didn't hit the basket.

The second quarter has been played for two minutes. The Knicks, for their part, just got a three-pointer. It can be seen that the scoring efficiency of the second quarter game is low.

However, this is not the real offensive level of the Knicks and Wizards on the court, and the Wizards' Templeley, Crawford, and Ariza are all scoring masters. Livingston on the Knicks' side. Smith and Vucevic are also good scorers, but now the situation is that neither team can score.

This state of affairs. Or the Wizards were more anxious, Crawford came over again, asked for the ball from his teammates, and in the face of the Knicks' defense, he directly rushed to the Knicks' basket with a high post and wanted to make a layup.

Crawford was still too anxious here, and he also thought about the league's No. 1 interior defense, and he only shot here, Thornton immediately moved out of the interior and pasted a big hat to the rebound.

Crawford's simple handling of the offense resulted in a big hat for nothing, and the Knicks grabbed the basketball and still pushed forward unhurriedly.

The Knicks are not in a hurry to play today, but there is also a bit of disconnection in the rhythm, you must know that the Knicks were also very fast in the past, and once they tried to stabilize the offense today, they were a little uncomfortable, and Vucevic also made a mistake when he came up to catch the ball.

The Wizards gave a big hat for nothing, and now the Knicks have also made a mistake, which gives the Wizards a chance to fight back.

The Wizards played again, Crawford controlled the ball at the top of the arc, and Templey suddenly took a step towards the top of the arc on the wing.

Templey took the ball directly and shot a three-point shot from distance: "Brush!" "The Wizards finally scored a goal after two minutes of scorelessness.

The offense on the Wizards' side finally started, and the breath of the whole court was relaxed for a while.

But when the Wizards' offense opens, the Knicks' offense also opens. The Knicks also picked up the pace, and Smith dribbled quickly.

Suddenly broke through to the vicinity of the penalty area, Smith rarely attacked with the ball, and when the Wizards' attention was slightly focused on Smith's side, Smith suddenly made a ground-hitting pass to Livingston who cut in the air.

Livingston happened to be facing an empty basket when he got the ball, and when there was such a good opportunity, Livingston naturally took the ball and dunked it.

"Bang dang!"

The Wizards scored points, and the Knicks' offense smoothed out.

Once the Knicks scored, Jordan Crawford rushed over and got the basketball, and he also used the high post cover to step back from beyond the three-point line, and came up and threw a three-pointer.

"Brush!"

Crawford's three-point shot was actually shot, and the two teams couldn't attack, so they couldn't score in a row, and now once the offense started, they started to score continuously.

The Wizards threw two three-pointers in a row, and the morale of the Wizards went up, and at this time the Knicks came to play, and when the Knicks took the ball and dribbled forward, they were actually pointed out by Mo Sisi.

The Wizards' package tactics are still relatively successful, the Wizards have two consecutive three-pointers, and now they are still stealing on the momentum.

But just when the Wizards were in a good form, Templeley rushed over with the ball, and the Wizards were fast attacking three to two, and Templey actually turned around and passed an extremely nonsensical pass when he broke through, and the basketball passed directly behind Singleton, so that Singleton couldn't catch the ball.

Templeley came over and wasted a chance, the ball was picked up by Livingston in the back, and Livingston turned around and rushed over to cause a foul on the Wizards. (To be continued......)
