Chapter 931 Conflict again
Li Feng didn't expect any consequences to rush to the Nets' inside line at this time. Li Feng rushed up directly. This gap could indeed be exploited. Li Feng got in in one step, and Anthony could not stop him at all.
He could only watch Li Feng rushing towards Kevin Garnett. Li Feng also saw Garnett at this time, but he couldn't stop. At this time, there was only one word in Li Feng's mind.
Even if Garnett was ahead, Li Feng would still rush forward. Li Feng rushed up completely meaninglessly. Li Feng knew that Garnett was going to play small moves, but he did not expect that Garnett was not playing small moves at all, but a big move.
The guy stretched out his arm, like a stick sweeping horizontally, swept Li Feng out of the air in one go.
At that time, Li Feng felt that his eyes were pitch black and he crawled on the floor in a flat manner.
Li Feng was accidentally shot directly on the floor by Garnett, and exclaims immediately came from both sides of the stadium. Although this was the visiting team, the fans only knew the danger of this action.
This kind of action may even kill a player's life. After seeing this action, Van Gundy, who was sitting on the sidelines, suddenly became excited. If Li Feng's career is over, his Pelicans dynasty will be wiped out in the playoffs.
Van Gundy, who rushed up, shouted at the referee. Fortunately, the referee did not care about Van Gundy at this time, because when he saw that the team's boss was put, Henson pushed Garnett to the ground from behind.
There was a series of conflicts, and at this time the players of both teams were running towards this corner. At this time, Al Jefferson showed a fierce light on his face. He pretended to go to fight, but he stepped on Garnett's thumb.
But Garnett screamed, and the court became even more chaotic. The Pelicans and the Nets players were confronted together, and the referee ran towards here desperately.
He had already taken action. All he gave Garnett was a technical foul, but Garnett, who was penised and stepped on his finger, stood up and suddenly slapped at Al Jefferson.
Garnett's instructions were only instinctive and didn't think about anything, but at this moment, the new and old hatreds that appeared in Al Jefferson's mind were indeed. Li Feng was suspended from Garnett a few days ago.
So Al Jefferson was swept and fell to the ground. Al Jefferson started performing this time, and his performance was very realistic. As soon as Al Jefferson fell to the ground, the scene became even more chaotic.
The Pelicans were beaten up by two of them. The substitute players on the Pelicans' bench jumped up all of a sudden, and Thornton was going to rush to the court and had a big game with Garnett. At this time, thanks to DJ Augustine beside him, he still calmly grabbed Thornton at the critical moment.
Li Feng fell heavily and his chest was stuffy. He didn't breathe for a long time, his eyes turned black and he wanted to vomit, but at this time the court was in chaos. No one paid attention to Li Feng at all.
Li Feng stood up and saw that Al Jefferson had fallen to the ground when he saw the big shot. Suddenly, the things about Al Jefferson came out of Li Feng's head. Li Feng's chest no longer hurts. He ran up and was about to fuck Garnett.
As soon as Li Feng moved, he saw Al Jefferson suddenly clamping his legs and clamping his feet. At this time, Li Feng suddenly understood that Al Jefferson was too bad.
The scene was very chaotic, and Garnett took action again and fucked Al Jefferson in one go. At this time, the referee could not show mercy. He immediately waved his hand and punished Garnett. Then the Pelicans team doctor came up and put Al Jefferson on a stretcher and took away.
Al Jefferson took it away, Li Feng stood up, and the team doctor checked Li Feng, but fortunately Li Feng had no problems.
The game continued to begin, the Nets lost Garnett, and Kidd had to replace David Lee.
The Pelicans can only replace Brand. Both teams seem to have lost one of the generals for the time being, but Li Feng knew that Al Jefferson was absolutely fine. This guy might have played such a trick just to get Garnett out, or even to completely create this finals.
Li Feng returned to the court, but at this time the atmosphere of the two teams was a little different. Both teams were full of gunpowder, and their eyes were different when looking at each other, especially the Pelicans players who didn't understand the situation.
Young players like Oladipo, Henson, and Brewer have their eyes red. The boss of their team was knocked down and the leader of the team was slapped down.
At this time, the atmosphere of the team was completely different. The referee gave the Pelicans a free throw. Li Feng stood on the free throw line. When he got the basketball, he touched his chest first.
This was a free throw he got from lying on the floor, so he must not be wasted. Li Feng thought so and took the free throw more seriously. The trajectory of the basketball fell into the basket very steadily.
Two consecutive days, Barkley looked at Li Feng and said:
"Fortunately, Li Feng was not broken, at least two free throws were hit. If he was killed by Garnett for a foul, then the Pelicans fans would hate this guy for the rest of their lives."
"Yes, the action just now is too dangerous!"
As a player, Pippen was also very worried.
Both goals were hit and the Nets attacked again. At this time, Kidd stood next to the sideline and his face looked gloomy and gloomy. It seemed that Garnett killed two of them alone, but in fact it was not the case at all.
As soon as Garnett left, the only pillar of the Nets' inside line disappeared, the Nets no longer had the pillar of the inside line, and the team's usual defense became a sieve, so the Nets' losses have been greatly lost.
But now it seems that there is Brand in the Pelicans now, and there is a big gap between Brand. Now he is on the court, and there is still someone to use the Pelicans, but the Nets are at the point where no one is available. Kidd loses. It's when Al Jefferson hasn't come back. Nets players rushed up like a storm. They lost Garnett, and the offense has become a little stronger.
Anthony made a mid-range shot that he was best at, and the basketball easily landed in the Pelicans' basket. The Nets are now a little angry. The conflict between the two teams has become a little irreconcilable now.
The Nets scored a game and Barclays Center was cheering, a set of shots suddenly appeared on the big screen. Al Jefferson walked out of the player's channel with relaxed steps, his expression was natural, and he had no injuries at all.
Seeing Al Jefferson appearing like this, Li Feng laughed, and the Pelicans players also cheered. At this time, Al Jefferson is no longer a major player for the Pelicans, but a symbol of symbolism.
But seeing Al Jefferson coming back, Kidd had the impulse to smash the tactical board in his hand directly on the floor. He lost Garnett, but the Pelicans lost nothing. Now Al Jefferson has returned, and his losses have been too great.
Barkley saw El Jefferson back and immediately said:
"Al Jefferson is back, he is back, he has nothing to do with thanks."
Al Jefferson returned to the court. Li Feng and all the Pelicans players rushed over and hugged Al Jefferson. Al Jefferson's return was so important to them, but at this time the Nets suffered a well-known blow, which was a huge loss for the Nets in terms of morale.
Al Jefferson is back. But Van Gundy doesn't let Al Jefferson return to the court immediately, but lets Brand and the Nets continue the game.
Now the Pelicans have completely put down their minds and started to attack the Nets' half-court. Al Jefferson's return makes the Pelicans' offense more impactful. Although Brand on the court usually complains that Al Jefferson has snatched his main position.
But now he runs faster. Brand seems to be running like a small man from the start of the line. Brand has very flexible steps. He is already relatively short and his flexibly stance makes it difficult for him to be defended on the offensive end.
The basketball was sent to Brand's hand. Brand dribbled the ball and forced Lopez to defend him, then straightened up and pressed her elbows to press Lopez to make an archer.
Brand is two completely different types of players from Al Jefferson. Lopez never expected Brand to have such an attack, and he even didn't know how to defend.
Brand rode an archery and pressed Lopez to a clean mid-range shot.
Although the Nets are fighting fiercely, now the Nets have no Garnett, as if there is a sign on their chest that makes the Pelicans play there.
So although the Nets are brave, they can't save any points without the core defense of the inside.
In this way, the Nets can't stop the Pelicans no matter how fierce the first quarter passed. Al Jefferson did not return to the court. Al Jefferson was chatting and laughing on the side of the court, but at this time the Pelicans had already suppressed the Nets with a huge advantage.
At the end of the first quarter, the Pelicans scored a high score of 37 points, while the Nets scored only 21 points under the Pelicans' defense, and a 16-point difference was created in the first quarter. The Pelicans seemed to be sweeping the Nets towards their ambitions, and today's game ended the battle in the third quarter.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the two teams were still fighting with substitutes, but the Pelicans did not have any concessions or slack thoughts. They still fought desperately to attack their opponents' fatal weaknesses on the offensive end and defended their positions to the death on the defensive end.
Regarding the Pelicans' pride, these substitutes are even more cautious than others.
Thornton was forcibly attacking the Nets' substitute position again and again. David Lee of the Nets could not stop Thornton's forced attack. And now Brand is still on the court, this guy will not miss any chance to get data, and keeps tossing David Lee's legs.
The Pelicans' substitute lineup has also suppressed the Nets' offense until the Pelicans widened the gap between the two teams to 20 points, and Kidd stood up at this time.
At this time, Kidd was extremely depressed. He knew very well what would happen if the team lost Garnett. Although Garnett's ability has declined significantly, he is also the best defensive gate for the Nets.
After losing this defensive gate, the Nets' inside line was basically equivalent to being unprepared. At this time, when they met a team like the Pelicans, Garnett was missing from the inside line, and the rest of the defense was like dominoes, which fell accordingly.
Until now, the Nets have no way to talk about the word defense. After Kidd called a timeout, he only had the last choice left in his mind.
If you want to play, fight with the Pelicans. If you win, you will win. If you don’t win, you will only have the option of losing. Instead of waiting for death, it’s better to fight with the Pelicans now.
Kidd made his last choice, he called a timeout, and immediately started to substitutions and arrange the tactics of the entire team.
When he returned to the court, the Pelicans' player combination became this kind of point guard Deron. Scoring guard Alan Anderson, small forward Joe Johnson, power forward Anthony, and center Lopez.
With a complete small tactic, Kidd's intention to fight the Pelicans desperately has become clear.
But the story happened just at the beginning of the second section, and Kidd's behavior was more or less a tragic smell.
In fact, Kidd is thinking more tragic than the guys present. He doesn't even care much about the game in front of him. Now the game has become a bet, and the bet is only about luck. This has little to do with him, the head coach. Now Kidd is only concerned about one thing, which is the league's punishment for Garnett. If Garnett is suspended from the game, it is estimated that the champion himself will not even have a little hope.
The Nets are so crazy, Charles Barkley in the commentary seat also said at this time:
"Now the game needs to end early. The Nets started their own bet, but they made such a bet in the second quarter. It must be extremely dangerous for the Nets. From now on, if the Nets cannot continue to score, what awaits them is a failure that will never be restored."
Pippen was also worried when he looked at this equally incomplete team on the sidelines:
"I don't know what measures the Pelicans will take. Are they still likely to compete with the Nets in an offensive position?"
Pippen actually really hopes that the Pelicans will compete with the Nets, so that the Nets will have at least hope, but if the Pelicans continue to play, the Nets will have no hope.
Li Feng saw the Nets walking on the court so tragically. He glanced at Al Jefferson beside him, and Al Jefferson immediately smiled bitterly.
The game continued and after the Nets changed the lineup, the Nets players also knew what they were facing now. During the game, they did not care about the game and started their own offense. The Nets players quickly came up.
The entire team ran very fast, and Lopez is no longer in hindrance. In the previous game, Lopez also had concerns as an inside player, but now Lopez has no such concerns at all. He is not an insider anymore, he is just a tactical player.
This is what Kidd said clearly just now. All freedom tore open the shackles of the entire Nets' offense. Free attacks and crazy attacks, Lopez inserted it from the middle.
He directly penetrated into the Pelicans' basket. At this time, the Pelicans' defensive player immediately touched Lopez, but Delon, on the outside, threw the basketball towards Lopez. Lopez saw the basketball coming.
He could not attack by himself, so he had a sudden inspiration to point the basketball to Joe Johnson on one side. After Joe Johnson received the basketball, he dribbled the ball in the side and immediately took a three-point jump shot.
Joe Johnson's shot was completely unreasonable, but he still hit it without reason. He gave the Nets a good start to the crazy offense that was about to begin. With this beginning, it will be easy to talk about it.
The Nets made this three-pointer, adding a little blood to their tragic atmosphere. At this time, Barclays Center seemed to see hope.
But at this time, Li Feng received the ball at the bottom line. Li Feng, who received the basketball, made a simple gesture towards his teammates.
Van Gundy's heart suddenly calmed down. Li Feng's gestures were obvious, and he firmly defended the offensive inside line. No matter what the opponent did, he saw his opponent's weakness and pointed it directly at the opponent's weakness and attacked.
This may seem that you can't beat your opponent for a while, but if you can't hold on, you will definitely be your opponent.
After half of the game, Li Feng dribbled the ball and immediately passed the basketball to Arenas's hand. Then Li Feng quietly touched the bottom line of the court like a cat. Li Feng's movements were very fast, but when Li Feng appeared near the bottom line, it still attracted the attention of the Nets. Who made Li Feng's goal really big, and this guy's threat was really too big.
Li Feng twisted his big butt card to control Anthony, and then Arenas from the outside immediately sent the basketball over. As soon as the basketball entered the inside, the Nets players immediately surrounded Li Feng like a group of wolves.
Kidd gave his players a clear instruction. As long as the opponent plays inside and double-teams, let them shoot from the outside. We bet on luck with them. At this time, the only thing the Nets can gamble is luck. If they still have the hit rate in the last quarter of the last game today, they will win, but if not, they will definitely lose.
At this time, they just stuck the Pelicans' inside offense. As for the outside, it is no longer within their thinking range.
Three Nets players came together to attack Li Feng. At this time, Li Feng himself did not expect that the Nets had such a great determination to strangle the inside line, and they did not care about the life or death of the outside line.
Originally, Li Feng wanted to pass the ball, but now there are too many people and hands around Li Feng. Li Feng didn't have any chance to send the basketball out. At this time, Li Feng's defense line was a little bit wrong with Anthony who let go.
He actually left half of his shoulder for himself, which was enough to do something for himself. Li Feng leaned hard towards Anthony's side, squeezed half of his shoulder, and then his body balance was not enough. He fell into the gap and lifted the basketball towards the basket. The basketball immediately rubbed the rebound into the basket. Li Feng lifted the basketball into the basket among the three players of the Nets.
None of the three Nets' players played a role in Li Feng. At this time, Kidd sighed. It was really unlucky. It seemed that the Pelicans did not mean to change their strategies at all. Although they didn't know how to attack, the Pelicans' attack focus would still be on their own inside.
Li Feng succeeded in the offense and immediately ran towards his halftime, because at this time the Nets had served quickly from the bottom line. Now the Nets are playing in a small lineup. How can they not be fast and how can they not pursue the fastest speed?
The Nets players ran quickly because the five Nets players did not enter the Pelicans' three-point line, so when they defended, they were floating outside. It seemed that the space was very large, and the entire lineup was like a big bagel. Moreover, the Nets players were all moving around this big bagel. The pair of Anthony and Joe Johnson made two cross covers at 45 degrees, and finally ran a position for Joe Johnson, and Deron sent the basketball to the hands of the Eagles.
The Hawks, who got the basketball, did an unusual move and rushed directly into the Pelicans' inside line. The Pelicans' inside line seemed to have no one, but now, Al Jefferson moved over with his beautiful sideways.
In terms of assisting defense, Al Jefferson's inside footsteps were really beautiful. Joe Johnson hit the Pelicans' defensive player, and at this moment, he staggered Joe Johnson's body, but at this time he sent the basketball to Lopez's hand.
The most important point of whether the Nets can beat the Pelicans today is Lopez. If Lopez plays, it can destroy the Pelicans' entire defense, but if he cannot perform well, Kidd's blood will flow in vain.
Lopez received the ball and shot with a three-pointer. Brewer went over to harass Lopez for a moment, but it didn't play a decisive role. The basketball still flew into the Pelicans' basket beautifully.
Lopez also had a three-pointer, so the Nets had two consecutive three-pointers, which gave Barclays Center hope. The entire Barclays Center burst into cheers, hoping that their team would be like the last game, and thousands of arrows were aroused to kill the Pelicans.
Even a center like Lopez can shoot three-pointers, what's impossible?
