Chapter 866 Spanish white bear(1/2)
After Brand grabbed the rebound, he felt a little embarrassed and wanted to shoot the basketball faster. He just got up and just got a touch of it. Marc Gasol's touch was very fast. Almost when Brand landed, he completed the attack.
But Marc Gasol was quick but lost his accuracy. The basketball slammed the neck and jumped towards the middle.
At this time, Marc Gasol was also angry. He failed to hit the two consecutive attacks, which was too embarrassing. Marc Gasol felt quite embarrassing and jumped towards the middle. At this time, Li Feng happened to come back from the middle to grab the rebound.
Li Feng was directly under the basket, and Marc Gasol rushed over. Li Feng had a position advantage, but as soon as he jumped up, Li Feng found that the bounce he had always thought was no longer comparable immediately.
Marc Gasol not only suppressed himself, but also made a palm of his arm more than himself. This was because he was in a positional position. Marc Gasol came over to compete with him for rebounds.
The basketball team Marc Gasol easily picked it from Li Feng's head. After Li Feng landed, he was unwilling to accept it and broke the basketball in Marc Gasol's hand behind him. However, after Marc Gasol took the ball and landed, he got up directly.
Li Feng's fingers twisted the curve of Marc Gasol's arm. Li Feng himself heard a sound of Gaba. Marc Gasol jumped directly under the basket and put the basketball into the Pelicans' basket.
Li Feng twisted his fingers, and he didn't care too much, because it didn't hurt very much, nor did he feel too much. However, at this time, the FedEx Stadium saw Marc Gasol ravaging the opponent's inside line. The fans wearing blue jerseys began to rise up and cheer for Marc Gasol and applauded Marc Gasol desperately.
At this time, Miller said with great emotion:
"Mark Gasol beat Li Feng, although this goal was not good for Li Feng. However, the ability to score in basketball undoubtedly proves his strength. The appearance of Marc Gasol simply directly curbed the Pelicans' throat."
Miller's metaphor is definitely not an exaggeration. At this time, Kenny Smith relies on data analysis:
"Yes, the Pelicans usually averaged 13 rebounds per quad. However, they have been 5 minutes in the second quarter of the game and they have just grabbed 12 rebounds. Marc Gasol is very strong for their containment."
The three-second zone of the Pelicans has become the dance floor for the Spanish White Bear, letting the Spanish White Bear dance here alone and fight around here.
Van Gundy was watching, and there was no way to do it. No one could do it with this Spanish white bear. This matter could only be done with the loss inside the dam and make up for the outside of the dam and attacked it back with an attack.
If you have this mentality, I can't defend you. I can only use offense to get the score back. This kind of team is inherently disabled. If you have two legs on offense and defense, you will rely on the attack to solve the problem. If you want to use offense to solve the problem, it is absolutely a gambling. You think your offense is good, but if something happens, your offense is bad.
The Pelicans turned around and Li Feng dribbled forward, and universal worker James Johnson was squatting beside Li Feng. It was said that James Johnson's defense was definitely not very good. Even James Johnson was still a very poor player in one-on-one. He could only play in the system and overall defense.
Now Li Feng dribbled the ball to the Grizzlies' half. Seeing that Marc Gasol was on the left, he immediately went to the right and asked for a cover.
Brand saw that Li Feng wanted cover, and he hurried up to block the three-point line. As soon as Li Feng saw that Bora had obtained, he knew that he had to be ruthless, he had to put enough pressure on the local area, and he had to be fierce.
So Li Feng kicked the ground fiercely and rushed out with a quick step. Li Feng's move was really fierce. He stepped over Brand and left James Johnson behind. Only Prince followed Li Feng and chased after him.
Li Feng's breakthrough was to see that half of the Grizzlies were weak, so he became ruthless in his heart, and he rushed up like a bison and made a little arc from the right.
At this time, Prince was the only half here, and Prince followed Li Feng immediately. Although Li Feng's first step was fierce, it was definitely not very fast. Prince could still follow him, but following him was one thing, but defending him was another thing.
Prince only followed Li Feng here, but could not do anything to Li Feng. Instead, Li Feng cut it step by step into Prince. It seemed like a foul to block Li Feng, but Li Feng twisted his waist at the same time, threw Prince out, and made a layup directly.
Marc Gasol hurriedly moved over at the basket, but when he moved over, Li Feng had already turned away Prince and jumped completely. In this way, even if Marc Gasol moved to the basket, he could only watch Li Feng use a very irregular throwing shot to throw the basketball into the Grizzlies' basket.
Although Li Feng scored a goal, when he flew up and made a layup, he still felt something was wrong. How to say it, when he made a layup, his fingers seemed a little uncomfortable.
At this time, Li Feng noticed his fingers. It turned out that Marc Gasol had twisted his fingers just now, and his fingers seemed to be twisted. After touching them twice, it felt very stiff.
At this time, Oladipo came over and patted Li Feng on the shoulder and said:
"Li Feng, you can score on Marc Gasol's head now."
Oladipo came over and said to laugh, but seeing Li Feng looking at his fingers, the basketball players looked at his fingers without any worries, Oladipo's first reaction was:
"Li Feng, are you injured?"
Li Feng thought it was still a bit early to go down now, and there would be no problem in treating himself after a while. Li Feng didn't care too much, so he waved his hand to Oladipo and said:
"There is nothing, I just twisted it, and there is nothing at all."
Oladipo saw Li Feng say this, but he didn't care too much. When the two sides continued their game, the Grizzlies still implemented the inside tactics, but the Pelicans had already made very strict defense against Marc Gasol.
Van Gundy said it doesn't matter if you let Marc Gasol score, just don't foul it, but every player has his own dignity and let others abuse himself at will. How can that be? So as soon as Marc Gasol got the basketball, he saw that the Pelicans players were hitting him. The Pelicans were very disturbed this time, and it was a three-person attack.
At this time, Marc Gasol was also educated as a center forward. When he saw three people attacking him, he exposed himself to Prince outside, and his hand quickly sent it out.
He sent the basketball to Prince who had been prepared long ago. Today, Prince has not performed since the beginning.
Now he received the basketball outside the three-point line, and there was still an open position. After Prince received the basketball, he made a three-pointer.
Prince was an All-Star before, and his mentality was very stable. From catching the ball to shooting in one go, he made a smooth three-pointer. Prince's three-pointer is the kind of ball that makes people think they will definitely make a shot when they see it.
The rhythm of shooting and the feeling of shooting were very good. Sure enough, Prince hit the three-pointer with one shot.
At this time, the Grizzlies not only made an inside attack, but also completely played their rhythm. If they wanted to have an inside, they would come to the inside. After attracting the inside, they had three-pointers at the outside, which was a classic tactic of combining internal and external.
At this time, Van Gundy glanced at the time. It was already the sixth minute of the second quarter. He had already supported himself in the bench for a long enough time. Now it should be the time for his main player to play.
At this time, Van Gundy raised his hand and called a timeout, and then began to substitution. He completely replaced the Pelicans' main player.
The Pelicans' main lineup is point guard Ross, shooting guard Arenas, small forward Caron Butler, power forward Millsap, and center Al Jefferson.
Except for Caron Butler who asked Li Feng to rest, the other players were the main players.
If the Pelicans substitute lineup is as strong as light cavalry and poor at defense, then the Pelicans' main lineup is a team of heavy infantry, with a rigorous phalanx attacking.
The Pelicans' main player has just returned to the court now. The Grizzlies' main player has played for 3 minutes, so the physical strength is completely different.
The main Pelicans returned to the court and immediately played the zipper tactics of the Pelicans logo. The entire team seemed to be running like a machine, covering the running position and cutting into the game, all running in an orderly manner layer by layer.
The Pelicans have a fast and rigorous running position here, Barkley said:
"It seems that the Pelicans' offense is back. They gave the Grizzlies two completely different styles of play in the half. I see the Grizzlies and other players adapting for a while."
Barkley was right. The Grizzlies' landlords just got used to Li Feng, Oladipo and his team's quick raid, and suddenly came up and played the Pelicans' main players one after another. The Grizzlies were really a little uncomfortable.
His eyes and footsteps were a little unfollowed. The Pelicans had such a complicated running position and let go. The Pelicans ran in order, while the Grizzlies were injured in the half-time. At this moment, Ross suddenly ran out of the Grizzlies' bottom line.
After making a back-run at the bottom line, Ross came out of the bottom line and ran a curly cut in a very good opportunity. Arenas naturally could see the threat of this moment, and he quickly passed the basketball to Ross.
After receiving the ball, Ross dribbled the ball and directly inserted into the Grizzlies' middle lane. Ross and the Pelicans played like using a dagger, stabbing the Grizzlies' chest from a very short distance.
As the strongest defensive element of the Grizzlies, Marc Gasol hurriedly returned to the middle to protect the chest. However, after the Pelicans made a sudden change of tricks in the chest. When Marc Gasol moved over, Rose passed the ball to El Jefferson.
So the Pelican's slash with his chest quickly turned into a slash that suddenly fell back from behind. This slash was more dangerous than the slash with his chest just now and was hard to guard against. Even though Marc Gasol had realized it, everything was too late.
Just after Al Jefferson received Rose's pass, he dunked it on the Grizzlies' head with both hands.
The Pelicans changed their main player and were a dunk. This was obviously challenging the Grizzlies' dignity, but Li Feng laughed in the rest seat:
"Hey, Al Jefferson, he's eager to show himself, he's anxious to cover himself up for everyone."
Li Feng said happily here, and Oladipo leaned against Li Feng and said:
"No, Li Feng, that's not our Al Jefferson, he's more like you Al Jefferson. You gave all your stuff to that big man."
Li Feng glanced at Oladipo at this time, and then said with a slight teasing voice:
"What, you're jealous."
"cut."
Oladipo waved his hand and said:
"Li Feng, you are really disgusting."
Marc Gasol, who just felt like he was dunked by Al Jefferson behind the back, now felt that he was a little embarrassed, so he seemed to have gotten back. When he arrived in the Pelicans' half, he asked for the ball and prepared to fire at Al Jefferson from the inside.
Marc Gasol was very happy to abuse Al Jefferson in the first quarter, but in the second quarter, he underestimated Al Jefferson. When the position was not ideal, he received the basketball and was like using his back attack to lean into Al Jefferson.
Marc Gasol took two steps in Al Jefferson, then suddenly looked up, and felt something was wrong after looking up, because although Al Jefferson also retreated under the pressure of Marc Gasol, the amplitude was definitely not as large as Marc Gasol himself imagined. After all, Al Jefferson was much stronger than Henson in height and weight. Another point is that Al Jefferson also posted Marc Gasol more deadly and suppressed Marc Gasol's lower plate.
In this way, Marc Gasol has already jumped up. He can only attack. When he is far away from the basket, Marc Gasol is not lazy and can only throw and shoot with one hand. Throw the ball out. The light attacking technique is definitely not something Marc Gasol is good at. After he throws the basketball out, he just watches the ball slide out along the front edge of the basket.
At this time, Al Jefferson turned around and grabbed the rebound. After these two moves, the Pelicans scored. The Grizzlies failed, and the consequences were obvious, but at this time, Al Jefferson's heart had actually changed.
Because he dunked a basket, defended Marc Gasol once, and had a rebound, in less than a minute, Al Jefferson gained three technical statistics. This was definitely a release for Al Jefferson's book, which was suppressed in the first quarter, and it opened his heart.
Even if I face Marc Gasol, I can still score points, but defend and grab rebounds. With this confidence, Al Jefferson is even more powerful to play.
Al Jefferson turned around and passed the basketball to Arenas. Arenas dribbled the ball and rushed to the Grizzlies' half. Today, not only Al Jefferson did not perform, but Arenas did not start playing much.
Tony Allen did not respect an old senior like Arenas. At this moment, Arenas suddenly called cover outside the three-point line, and Millsap hurriedly got out and stood on the side of Arenas.
Arenas suddenly started from the slow rhythm just now. Arenas played team basketball just now, so every move and every move looked a bit slow, but once Arenas decided to move.
The rhythm became strange in front of Tony Allen. After two consecutive steps, we reached the high position behind Millsap. James Johnson hurriedly went to assist in defense, but Arenas suddenly stopped.
Arenas stopped for a while, and James Johnson naturally stopped. However, James Johnson had just stopped, and Arenas started again, and the speed was very fast. He directly pressed James Johnson toward the Grizzlies' inside.
At this time, Conley, who was hanging on the bottom corner, hurried back to defend, but as soon as he left, Arenas's ball headed behind him.
Caron Butler received the ball in the bottom corner, and Conley hurriedly turned his head to defend Caron Butler, but what Caron Butler is good at is forced shooting, not to mention that Conley has no advantage of height against Li Feng.
It just looked at Caron Butler, who was rude and coldly ignored Conley's existence and shot out with a three-pointer.
Conley hoped that Caron Butler would not make this three-pointer with a hope, but Caron Butler ruthlessly killed Conley's hope. The basketball was behind Conley and clear into the basket.
At this time, even Robert Pera looked at the Pelicans in surprise. The Grizzlies won the final victory in the previous battle between the Pelicans and the Grizzlies. It is precisely because of this lesson that Robert Pera has always believed that the Pelicans are just like this. However, from the opening of today, Robert Pera feels that the Pelicans' progress seems to be very huge. Whether in substitutes or in the style of playing in the main lineup, the Pelicans have made certain progress.
With these things, Robert Pera felt like she underestimated the enemy.
When the Grizzlies attacked again, Conley got another chance. At this time, Conley became a black hole on the outside. After receiving the basketball, he immediately made a shot.
Conley is indeed a black hole to take action, but his efficiency is still good today, and taking action will help the Grizzlies get points.
The Grizzlies relied on the outside to quickly get points, and the Pelicans were not to be outdone. They seemed to be dark clouds and overwhelmed the Grizzlies' halftime. At this time, the Pelicans suddenly made a tactical move that was beyond all expectations.
As soon as the Pelicans fell, they quickly went deep into the Grizzlies' inside position to get the card. The Pelicans made this move very fast, and almost completed such a trend as soon as they fell.
The Pelicans not only fall quickly, but also move very quickly. Once Al Jefferson gets stuck in the inside, Rose outside will stuff the basketball into Al Jefferson's hands.
The inside offensive situation formed almost instantly. This was already amazing enough and fast enough, but Marc Gasol must be behind Al Jefferson, and saw Al Jefferson move in his hand. He suddenly passed the basketball out from behind, and just passed it to Rose who was slipping up from behind.
