Li Feng is actually using the summer league to test himself, but Li Feng's way of testing is different from others, and the content of his test is to run in with the team, so that no matter how many stars compete with Li Feng, they also feel very boring.

Li Feng is testing the run-in process between himself and the team, and Li Feng responds to all changes in an unchanging way, making other teams and stars feel that it is not interesting to compete with Li Feng again.

In this way, Li Feng quietly took the Pelicans through the entire summer league and passed the run-in of the entire summer league. Li Feng finally had a certain tacit understanding with the team, and he also understood what style almost every player had and how to play.

Time flies, the regular season is not far away, the preseason is about to begin, and the newly formed Pelicans have a certain run-in in the summer league, at least the players have gotten to know each other.

Entering the preseason, no matter what, the Pelicans are playing in the regular season, because in this way, the regular season can achieve the greatest run-in effect and the fastest run-in speed.

In the preseason, the Pelicans were all in the mainstay, Pau Gasol was in good shape, Stephen Corey had a slight up-and-down, and the Pelicans ended the preseason and entered the regular season with half wins and half losses.

At this time, the league's schedule has already come out, and the Pelicans' opener opponent is actually the Spurs again.

Before the game began, the two sides rested in the locker room for a while, and the two teams began to shoot on the court to warm up, and then waited for the game to start, and the New Orleans arena began to sit with fans, and the media began to set up long guns and short guns on both sides of the court.

At this time, the difference between the Pelicans and the Spurs came out, the Spurs came out of the old birds, all of them shot steadily on the sidelines silently, and on the Pelicans side, all of them came out of the sturdy young men, all of them were full of energy, and they were on the court. Let's start with a few dunks.

Henson is even more active on the court, with a back-to-back dunk on the left and an aerial relay on the right, constantly performing.

Henson's performance also brought enthusiasm to the fans who came first, and the fans were cheering happily on the sidelines.

The more the fans cheered for Henson, the more energetic the kid became, and later Li Feng became excited to watch it, and he came over to play a big axe dunk.

TNT's telecasts hadn't started at this time, but Ross Barkley and Kenny Smith, who were commentators on the game, had already arrived on the court.

Barkley looked at the dunk on the sidelines. Immediately said to Kenny Smith:

"Look, who said the Pelicans are done this year, look at the momentum, they are defending the title."

Kenny Smith nodded on the side:

"Yes, the Pelicans are destined to look good this season, but Li Feng is originally a shower, and he has met a group of scoring masters, I think they will play a lot of good games, and they will also play a lot of scolding games."

"Hahaha."

Barkley laughed out loud. Agrees with Kenny Smith.

The warm-up shooting was turned into a dunk contest by the Pelicans, and the fans enjoyed watching it, but this enjoyment could not last long after all.

After a while, the game was about to begin. All the players stepped back, the lights went out, and the Pelicans started showing the season's promo on the big screen.

The Pelicans have a good season this season, so they also spent a lot of money on this promotional video. First of all, the beginning of the promotional video is the scene of the Pelicans losing again and again last season, and the scene of frustration again and again.

Then the camera panned. Immediately after Li Feng joined the Pelicans, he wore the number team at the press conference.

Then immediately the camera turned, it was last season's winning streak, the playoffs against the Grizzlies, and then the Finals and the Nets, and finally won the championship.

These shots are connected into a string, and once this shot passes, the last shot is the current group photo of the whole team of the pelican.

This promotional video is extremely exquisitely done, the camera is also well switched, and the passion is all expressed.

So as soon as the promotional video was released, the audience cheered, and many fans even raised towels and signs with the pelican logo, and countless fans on the sidelines were imitating the wolf howl of the pelican.

The heat of the stadium immediately rose, and then cold fireworks began to set off on the sidelines, and when the cold fireworks lit up the court.

DJ on the sidelines began to read the names of the starters in a deep voice, Jason Smith, the first thing DJ said was Marshall's name, and this lucky guy ran off the court.

Then DJ began to read Ryan Kelly's name, followed by Henson and others.

However, when the latter read Al Jefferson, the cheers on both sides of the court suddenly became louder, because Jefferson's performance in the finals was also very good, and Jefferson was also very respectable.

After Jefferson, DJ paused, and this time the fans also knew that the last most important person was going to play, so the whole court was quiet.

At the quiet New Orleans Arena, DJ howled:

"Let's take on our Tyrannosaurus Rex, the leader who led us to the championship, the strongest player in the league, Li Feng !!"

DJ finally shouted out Li Feng's name, and suddenly the entire New Orleans Arena was a cheer, Li Feng jumped out of the players' tunnel and high-fived the fans on both sides, and then jumped to the center of the stadium and waved to the fans on both sides, signaling the audience to cheer for themselves.

Li Feng's legend, as well as Li Feng's strength, have made New Orleans fans feel satisfied and full of hope.

After a long cheer, DJ began to read the names of the Spurs players, and of course DJ treated the Spurs players differently, and all of them were plain names.

Parker, Ginobili, Leonard, Split, only when Duncan is recited at the end.

Li Feng and Duncan are both the kind of players who are dominant, they are crazy in some ways, they are both destructive players, and now they are standing together and going to fight it, which is bound to be exciting.

So at this time, Charles Barkley also said on the side:

"Li Feng and Duncan are the Pelicans' new and old generations of forward kings, and now they are going to have a big battle, let's wait and see who is the real king. Who is more dominant. ”

Kenny Smith also said:

"Now I'm already looking forward to it, Li Feng rushed over and bit Duncan's thigh, Duncan bit Li Feng's neck, such a duel between the two teams, it really makes me feel my blood boiling, a wonderful new season, it's just amazing, thank Xiao Hua for arranging a duel between Li Feng and Duncan at the beginning of the game, I'm so excited."

After a lonely summer, the new season begins. Kenny Smith was also excited.

After DJ introduced the starters of both teams, the game finally began, with Duncan and Jefferson walking into the center circle together.

When the referee blew the whistle and threw the basketball into the air, Jefferson and Duncan jumped up together to fight for the basketball.

Two big men screamed at the same time, body collided, body and desire to win. Hope ignites in an instant.

In this confrontation, Duncan, although he is old, has an advantage in height and reach. First point the basketball to his own half of the court.

Parker, who was behind him, immediately took the ball, reached out and shouted at the court:

"Let's fight steadily, look at my gestures."

Now Parker is the league's favorite point guard, so at this time, Marshall sees that Parker is under a lot of pressure.

No one expected it. The Pelicans' starting line was actually a backcourt combination of Marshall and Corey, small forward Li Feng was unsurprisingly Gasol and El Jefferson on the inside, and Van Gundy didn't let Paul Pierce and Danny Granger play the start. Instead, he went to Marshall.

Van Gundy's trust put more pressure on Marshall, just as Parker dribbled to watch his teammates and push toward the Pelicans. Marshall, like an agile leopard, jumped out of the way when Parker looked up at the man, heading straight for the basketball.

Parker raised his hand to dodge, but it was too late, Marshall's second shot had already arrived, and Parker's ball was dropped at once.

Marshall, who ordered the basketball, rushed towards the Spurs' half, and Marshall at this time ran all the way to the Spurs' basket with resentment.

Parker could only watch Marshall's easy steal layup from behind, after Marshall broke such a ball, he suddenly felt straight to his chest, and his heart was very happy, what can you Parker do, now I still want to beat you, just today, to beat you.

After Marshall landed, he looked up to the sky and roared, and the fans at the New Orleans Arena saw that their home team had played such a morale-boosting ball at the beginning, and they immediately cheered and cheered for the team's new atmosphere.

Parker was inexplicably cut off a ball, and Popovich was also sighing on the side, Parker has a mature style on the court, but still has more or less shortcomings.

Just as Popovich sighed, Duncan came back and patted Parker on the shoulder and exclaimed:

"Focus, focus, they're going to fight with us, focus."

Now that Parker is famous, he can still listen to Duncan's words.

Parker nodded again and again, and then immediately the Spurs slowly advanced, the Spurs, a team composed of old men, mainly attacked by various shots and fouls in the half-court positional battle.

Parker got the ball to the Pelicans' court, and the Spurs immediately played a very Spurs-specific offensive position.

Garnett and Split are two big men standing in the corners on either side of the free throw line, Leonard and Ginobili are open to the two bottom corners, but any mature team is very good at opening up space, and the Spurs show the work of the whole team as soon as they come up.

Parker came over and passed the ball to Garnett, who then went over to cross the screen with Ginobilizzo and attacked.

The Spurs' offensive routine was very smooth, but the Pelicans' defensive enthusiasm and defensive intensity today were unexpected.

From the moment Parker started running, Li Feng immediately led the whole team to pounce on the defense, putting physical pressure on the opponent's players without the ball.

This is the defensive style that the Pelicans have always used in the summer league, and now it is easy to play, but the Spurs have a bunch of old guys who have not played in the summer league, so they can't adapt to this defense this time.

Parker and Ginobili's cross-cover didn't have a chance, Ginobili ran a curl cut, and went around to the top of the arc Parker hesitated to get the ball, so suddenly the Spurs' tactics.

Charles Barkley also said on the side:

"I'm thinking that in the future, with the Pelicans, the best five will definitely not be monotonous."

The Spurs were caught off guard at the beginning, and at this time they were a little overwhelmed.

And at this time, the Pelicans started with a dream start. The momentum was immediately like a rainbow, and Li Feng shouted:

"Defend, defend."

In Li Feng's roar, the Pelicans' defense was even more ferocious, when the Spurs advanced again.

The Pelicans' players pounced desperately outside, and immediately put a lot of pressure on the Spurs on the outside.

Parker was almost cut off by Marshall again, and just as Philadelphia sighed, Parker hurriedly passed the basketball to Ginobili at 45 degrees on the right side.

Ginobili was opposite Corey at this time, and met Ginobili, and the two were old friends. Corey also immediately served Ginobili with thoughtfulness and meticulousness. Corey's defense tried his best, Ginobili faced Corey, and also smiled slightly, he was not angry because Corey did something to himself, he shook the ball, and immediately turned around and broke through to the bottom line.

Ginobili has a very good sense of rhythm in these two strokes, and his physical confrontation ability is also strong, and he immediately opened Corey half a step, just half a step.

When he got to the basket, Ginobili slammed it towards Corey. Waiting for Corey to reach out, as soon as Corey reached out, he yelled and cheated a foul.

Ginobili cheats fouls as simple as that. But there are not many people who can do it, and Corey was even more scolded by the old guy, and he was quite speechless, preventing this old guy from cheating and fouling. prevented him from cheating and fouling, but he still didn't prevent it.

Ginobili hit both free throws from the free-throw line to score the opening two points for his team.

Ginoby scored points by deception foul. Naturally, the fans at the New Orleans arena wanted to boo him.

"Shhh

There was boos all over the court, but when the basketball was transferred to the Pelicans' players, the fans stopped boosing.

The Spurs just scored a free throw, and then went back and naturally opened a position to defend, before the Pelicans continued to break fast, now there is no chance of fast break, it depends on how the Pelicans come to play the Spurs' half-court defense.

In the past, the Pelicans relied on running to play the Spurs' fast offense, but now they still rely on running, and they have the same effect as the Spurs in the offensive routine, and the Pelicans also Paul Gasol and Jefferson stood in the horn position together.

Then the two sides began to cross cover together, and the Pelicans players were running wild with excitement at this time.

The previous dunks made their blood boil, and now the Pelicans players are really like wolves, running fast and excited once they are killed.

The young man was violently pulling the Spurs' aging defense at a fast speed, and Li Feng was even more in the center to attract the opponent's firepower, and when Li Feng saw Jefferson throwing Split away in the process of running back and forth, he suddenly passed the basketball to Jefferson's hands with a wide pass.

Jefferson had a mid-range projection, and he caught the ball and fired directly from the baseline, but Split couldn't save it.

Jefferson fired and hit again, and the Pelicans opened with 4 shots and scored 8 points in one go.

At this time, the Spurs faced the pelicans with crazy momentum, and they were becoming more and more cautious and more serious about taking out their state.

The Pelicans played so well at this start, so when the Pelicans shrank back, they saw the fans on both sides of the New Orleans arena standing up, shaking the white handkerchiefs in their hands, and the white handkerchiefs were flying all over the court.

The fans are cheering, the management is flushed with excitement, and the Pelicans players are now also adrenaline pumping one by one.

In this situation, the Pelicans' players are crazy to attack, crazy to press, and put a lot of pressure on the Spurs.

Under this pressure, the Spurs couldn't play the tactics lightly, and Parker could only break through individually to save the team alone.

But Parker is not the kind of player who is super physical and can solve problems, and he can't do the work of facing difficulties.

So Parker came up and almost got the ball broken, and the Spurs snatched the ball back, and 24 seconds were almost consumed.

Duncan could only barely shoot and shot at Pau Gasol's head, only to be interfered with by Pau Gasol and Duncan's shot missed.

Duncan missed, Corey immediately grabbed the rebound in the backcourt, and this time Corey also passed the ball to the front court sharply, wanting to play fast, but Corey passed the ball too hard, and Li Feng desperately chased and didn't keep up.

The Pelicans made a mistake after hitting several good shots in a row, and this mistake was very low-level and inexplicable.

But this is the characteristic of the new team, which can play extremely magnificently, or it can play very nonsensical and make a lot of undeserved mistakes.

However, such a mistake did not reduce the morale of the Pelicans, who were still in high spirits at this time, after the mistakes. Li Feng also encouraged Corey with the big victory to maintain the team's strong morale.

The Pelicans returned to halfcourt, and the Spurs had been deflated by the Pelicans several times in a row.

Now that this round has come, he has learned well, Parker took the ball and dragged it back slightly, and only when Ginobili penetrated the baseline did he move forward.

As soon as Parker's footsteps moved, Ginobili immediately ran upward, and Parker immediately passed the ball to Ginobili.

Ginobili took the ball a little faster, and Li Feng could only jump. You must know that Ginobili's shot speed is 0.6 seconds.

But as soon as Li Feng jumped like this, Ginobili immediately took the ball horizontally and shot a mid-distance.

Li Feng's defensive ability is now very strong, but he still can't redeem Ginobili, because Ginobili's attack mode is immune to any strong defense, which means that no matter who he faces, his off-ball movement can achieve his goal.

No matter who you're facing?

Li Feng was scolded by Ginobili once, and he was helpless.

The Spurs offense was successful, and as they were running back, the Pelicans suddenly hit a quick baseline shot.

Pau Gasol gets the ball on the baseline. Immediately threw the ball into the hands of Li Feng, who had already reached the middle circle.

When Li Feng took the ball, only three people ran back from the Spurs' position, which was an obvious opportunity to hit the opponent's unstable foothold, and Li Feng immediately took the ball and stabbed into the Spurs' three people like a tank.

The Spurs trio came to their best point of defending the small area against Li Feng when it came to the bag. As soon as Li Feng turned around, he was leaned on Parker's body, and Parker was leaned on his feet, Li Feng's strength and weight were too terrifying.

At such a moment, Li Feng saw that Corey who was following behind him had reached 45 degrees to the left. And there was not a single person in front of him.

Li Feng quickly passed the ball to Corey's hand, Cory has the ability to open three-pointers, and his accuracy is good when no one is guarding.

Corey takes the ball and jumps out of his hand. The basketball flew over an arc "Whew! ”

Entered, three points, entered, the Pelicans played all the way, it can be described as a smooth sail, violent dunks, air relays, three points, a qiē fans like to watch, these 2 points, the Pelicans have all played.

For the fans of New Orleans, these 2 minutes are simply a feast, and in a country thousands of miles away, when this game was broadcast, Li Feng's fans were also very excited.

Now the Pelicans are playing so well, it's a dream, and the old opponents they played last season are a little bit unable to find the north.

At this time, Popovich really couldn't hold it, and immediately called a timeout, he definitely couldn't let the form develop like this, Popovich saw it, and when Li Feng got there, he infected his own madness there.

The Spurs must make adjustments, otherwise they will be beaten too ugly, anyway, they are the defending champions, and at this time, Barkley said in the commentary box:

"Before the game, I could feel that the Pelicans would play faster because they are a relatively young team, and the small ball has been a magic weapon for the small team to attract spectators in the past two years."

"But I didn't expect that the Pelicans could be so fast, so fast that it was dazzling, Pau Gasol's wide range of passes were applied to this team, and Li Feng's finishing ability was combined together, so that any team could not breathe, you see that the Spurs have returned to defense fast enough, but they still can't walk the speed of the ball, Li Feng's finishing ability has also attracted too much attention from the Spurs, such a combination is destined to make the Pelicans become the most hated opponent of the team with more old men in the league, The Spurs are now facing a problem, that is, what to do if they meet the Pelicans again in the playoffs, think about the Pelicans are just a new lineup that has not been run in well and restrain the Spurs like this, if Popovich does not find a solution, maybe only the Grizzlies can come out to stop the Pelicans. ”

Kenny Smith also said at this time:

"yes, the Pelicans are really refreshing now, they're too fast, they're too sharp, and now I only have one question, will the Pelicans be the rhythm leader this season, maintain the shooting percentage, play dirtier, cheat more fouls, and then order Duncan to keep an eye on Pau Gasol, can't let him casually wear long-distance passes, and the tempo is back under 40 yards."
