Chapter 1505 Bad Defense

At this moment, Li Feng's center of gravity suddenly raised and he made a fake shooting move. Seeing this, Leonard almost immediately jumped, but his toes were about to leave the ground and stopped immediately because he found that Li Feng's body was shorter.

"It's so dangerous!"

Leonard was glad for his wise decision. At this moment, Li Feng's body was raised again. Without having time to think too much, he jumped up quickly.

"Oops!"

After Leonard jumped up, he realized that Li Feng was not jumping. He immediately felt something was wrong in his heart. Before he could react, Li Feng jumped up with him again.

When he hit Leonard, Li Feng's body flew backwards.

"Ding!"

The referee's whistle sounded, Li Feng's wrist trembled gently, the ball flew out of his hand and headed straight for the basket.

"Swish!"

The referee's whistle was not something that really made Leonard feel uncomfortable. What really made him feel uncomfortable was the subsequent sound, the sound of the ball piercing through the Nets.

Extra fine for score, 2+1!

Leonard put his hands on his waist and twitched gently. He still couldn't control Li Feng's slut, but this was not the most important thing, the main thing was that he had to listen to Li Feng's ridicule.

"Hey, man, you are in the same group as the rabbit, why do you like to dance so much?"

Li Feng actually wanted to say that the other party was born in the rabbit, but there were no twelve zodiac signs in the United States. Leonard even knew the profoundness of Chinese culture, so he gave up on this big plan.

"Your chattering looks are so annoying!"

Leonard said coldly.

The handsome Li Feng shrugged indifferently, and said while moving towards the free throw line:

"Man, I'm sure you'll hate me even more after waiting."

Li Feng was not wrong. Three minutes later, Leonard's hatred of Li Feng rose sharply. The reason was very simple. Li Feng had already scored 4 points on his head again.

"Li Feng got the ball again. After he came on the court, Li Feng had already scored 7 points in a row..."

Scoring 7 points in a row is not what the Spurs are concerned about. The key is that Li Feng's 7 points have already given the Pelicans a 8-point lead at this time, and the Pelicans still have the ball.

Li Feng took the ball outside the three-point line, and the players on the Spurs immediately became very nervous, and Leonard, who was half a step away in front of Li Feng, was even more so.

The left foot suddenly stepped out, but Li Feng's ball fell to the right. Leonard's movement was extremely fast, but it did not stop Li Feng from moving forward.

"Double-team!"

Amid the roar, the Spurs' defense line moved rapidly toward this side.

Leonard was on the side and Aldridge was in front. Li Feng was trapped in the double-team between the two, and his forward rushing was also paused. He could not rush forward, and Li Feng's movement did not stop. His body suddenly jumped, and the ball in Li Feng's hand was quickly thrown out.

"Li Feng passed the ball, the left three-point line surgery, three-pointer... made a goal! 11 points! The Pelicans widened the gap to 11 points again."

The scene was full of joy, and the score difference was completely different in single digits and double digits. With more than four points left before the game, the Pelicans once again widened the score difference to 11 points, which made them very excited.

"Derek broke through and made a layup, the ball bounced out, Al grabbed the frontcourt rebound, handed the ball to the outside, Derek made a three-pointer!"

"Li Feng was double-teamed, the ball was passed again, Derek, mid-range jump shot, hit!"

...

In the last four minutes, the Spurs tried to put pressure on the Pelicans on both offense and defense, but did not make substantial progress. With the advantage of 11 points in their hands, the Pelicans played more and more aggressively and more relaxed in the next game.

Seeing that time was getting less and less, the score difference did not narrow. The Spurs began to try more outside attacks. Manuginobili made two three-pointers in a row on the outside, but this did not bring them close to the score. The Pelicans who let the attack offense were stronger than the Spurs.

"beep!"

As the whistle sounded throughout the game, there were also endless applause and uniform shouts of shouting:

“mvp!mvp!”

"The Pelicans won the final victory. In the whole game, they completely suppressed the Spurs and did not give the opponent a second chance to lead. They defeated the San Donganho Spurs with an absolute advantage."

97-107, with Li Feng scoring 30 points, 7 assists and 8 rebounds, the Pelicans defeated the Spurs by 10 points at home and won the playoff game.

"Li Feng showed his MVP strength, the Pelicans easily defeated the Spurs at home"

"Three consecutive dunks, who else can I do?"

...

Such reports have appeared in reports from major media after the game ended, and the video of Li Feng's three consecutive dunks became popular on major websites before the game ended.

No one doubts about the Pelicans winning this game, but it is beyond expectations that the Pelicans can win so easily. After the regular season, many people believed that the Spurs, who performed well in the regular season, would rebound in the playoffs, causing some trouble to the Pelicans. What was unexpected was that the Spurs had almost no trouble to the Pelicans in this game.

"The team played normally and then won the game, and that's how it was." Among the numerous reports, a sentence Li Feng said in the post-match interview was placed in the most conspicuous position.

It is said that after seeing this sentence, more than 30% of Spurs fans chose to tear off the newspaper in their hands, and those who saw this sentence in front of the screen raised their mouse high. Of course, not everyone was willing to throw the mouse at the screen. Some were thrown on the table, while others gently put it down.

The absolute confidence revealed by Li Feng's words made Pelicans fans love him to death and Spurs fans hate him to death. But it is undeniable that those fans who pay attention to Li Feng's playoff performance were extremely satisfied after watching this game, while those who were waiting for Li Feng to perform poorly in the playoffs were very disappointed.

When Li Feng won the MVP award at the end of the regular season, most people thought it was deserved, but some people were still dissatisfied with it, so this statement spread:

"MVP? Let's talk about all this when he shows such strength in the playoffs."

Li Feng is a very capable person, at least from the first game, in the first game, Li Feng had almost no choice but to be picky about, and his performance at the opening was even more amazing.

After winning the first game, fans in New Orleans were in excitement. They couldn't wait to see the start of the second game, especially those who bought tickets to the second game.

After a day off after the first game, the Pelicans and the Spurs met again at the New Orleans Center.

Amid the screams and shouts of the fans, the Pelicans players appeared on the court with high fighting spirit. The victory of the first game completely exerted the Pelicans' momentum, which also made the Pelicans' team full of confidence in today's game.

Because the two teams had already fought just a day ago, both sides were familiar with each other, and both sides seemed very prepared at the beginning of the game.

In the first game, the Spurs' slow heat allowed the Pelicans to establish an advantage early, and this advantage also helped the Pelicans play more easily in the subsequent games. In the second game, the Spurs did not give the Pelicans such a chance, and they quickly got into the state at the beginning of the game.

Whether it is offense or defense, the Spurs are completely different from the first quarter of the last game. After half a quarter, the Spurs even led the Pelicans by one point 13-12.

The Pelicans are unwilling to be suppressed by the Spurs at their home court. After Van Gundy called out a short timeout, the Pelicans launched a rapid offensive.

The Spurs' defense is not bad. On the contrary, in the past few years, the Spurs' defense has been at the forefront of the league, but the Pelicans' offense has ranked first in the league this season.

The defensive intensity in the playoffs is indeed high, but in the regular season, the Pelicans encountered games that were not defensively tough, and the results were mostly the Pelicans who won the final victory. The Pelicans' offense has passed 82 games in the regular season and is not an ordinary strong person.

When the Pelicans and his players decided to attack, the Spurs had to cheer up and face it seriously, but even so, the Pelicans still scored 15 points in the half-quarter.

The Spurs tried their best on the defensive end, which inevitably affected their offense. After the first quarter, their score was 22.

The advantage of 5 points was established in the first quarter, which naturally made the Pelicans fans on the scene excited. They began to look forward to the arrival of a two-game winning streak. In addition to looking forward to winning again at home, Pelicans fans also hope that the team can win the game wonderfully.

However, after the first quarter, the game was completely unsatisfactory.

The Spurs realized that if the Pelicans were not restricted on the defensive end, their results today would still not be able to escape the wings. Starting from the second quarter, the Spurs became increasingly tough on the defensive end, especially paying great attention to the defensive counterattacks that the Pelicans are good at.

In the second quarter, the Pelicans only scored 2 points through the fast attack. Although the Pelicans were able to score on the offensive end, the pace was inevitably forced to slow down by the Spurs.

21-22. In this quarter, the slow-paced offense led to low scores, but what made Pelicans fans happy was that they still beat the Spurs by 1 point in a single quarter.

After entering the second half, the Pelicans began to change their playing style. Van Gundy asked Corey and Ross to exchange roles, and Corey controlled the ball to the frontcourt, using Corey's impact.

This method is very effective. The Pelicans' offensive rhythm has indeed accelerated. Although the Spurs' retreat speed has also become faster, the pace of the game has unknowingly entered the control of the Pelicans.

24-28, in the third quarter, the Pelicans suppressed the Spurs again in a single quarter, which also allowed them to lead the Spurs by 10 points after three quarters.

The score reached 67-77, which undoubtedly put a huge pressure on the Spurs. The Spurs, who entered the fourth quarter, began to explode in full swing, and they brought great trouble to the Pelicans on both offense and defense. At this time, the Pelicans seemed a little careless. In the first half of the fourth quarter, they actually let the Spurs suppress it with 15-8.

After closing the score difference to 3 points, the Spurs seemed even more motivated, and the Pelicans also came back to their senses and fell into a stalemate on the court.

Li Feng began to control and dominate the ball more, and the Pelicans were more careful in their offense. They almost made no big mistakes in the second half of the quarter. The Spurs also played very well. In the second half of the fourth quarter, the Spurs scored 15 points again, and the Spurs, who had been lukewarm in the front attack, scored 30 points in this quarter.

Although he only scored 8 points in the first half of the quarter, the Pelicans scored 14 points in the second half of the quarter. In the end, the score was frozen at 97-99, and the Pelicans narrowly defeated the Spurs with 2 points.

The fourth quarter did make a cold sweat for Pelicans fans. It was not until Ginobili missed the three-pointer and they breathed a sigh of relief.

After two games in New Orleans, the Pelicans led the Spurs 2-0 with a big score, and they were about to switch to San Ton Hokkienho in the next game. On the day after the second game ended, the two teams left New Orleans on their own planes to San Ton Hokkienho.

Although the Pelicans won the game in the second game, their performance was also criticized by many people. When they held a 10 advantage in the fourth quarter, the Pelicans' carelessness almost made them lose the game they got at home.

What criticized the outside world the most in this game was the Pelicans' defense in the fourth quarter. In the fourth quarter, they allowed the Spurs to score 30 points.

Especially some teams not optimistic about the Pelicans. After pointing out the big problem with the Pelicans, they once again raised the topic of "only defense can win the championship". Van Gundy's team has always been unfavorable in defense, which is also well-known. In their opinion, although the Pelicans' offense is the first in the league, their lack of defense will limit them to go further in the playoffs.

As if it confirmed these people's words, when they came to San Tonho's first game, the Pelicans lost due to defensive issues.

0-2 lag behind, the Spurs returned to home court and played back. They knew very well that once the Pelicans were going to pull the score to 3-0, they would face the end of being eliminated early. In this game, the Spurs showed a very good state on both offense and defense.

95-102, at the Spurs' home court, the Pelicans lost to their opponents by 7 points. After this game, the Pelicans' defense was once again questioned.

After the opening, the Spurs established a 7-point advantage with their high-intensity defense and offense. The Pelicans began the process of chasing points, but they did not tie the score until the third quarter. They did score on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, they could not limit the Spurs' scoring well.

Similar things were staged in the fourth quarter. When the Spurs suddenly exerted their strength to widen the score again, the Pelicans launched attacks again and again, but failed due to defense.

2-1. This is not a big deal, but Li Feng is very dissatisfied. His dissatisfaction is the same as those who support the Pelicans outside. He is very dissatisfied with the team's defense in these two games.
