Chapter 923 The Great Reversal(1/2)

Kidd was very confused about this matter and called a timeout. He originally wanted to ask Deron, but as soon as Deron returned to the sidelines, he could immediately see that Deron's calves were trembling, and his physical strength was actually wafting so much.

Kid looked at Deron with an unpleasant look. He thought Deron had gone to something he shouldn't go, but Caron Butler immediately explained:

"Defending Li Feng requires double the physical strength. He is too strong and too fast, and I consume a lot of energy."

After saying this, Kidd realized that he had blamed Deron for wrongly, but he said immediately:

"Deron, you get off the court and go on the court at the last moment. Now Livingston, you come up to replace Deron and defend that guy Anthony. You just need to follow his run."

Kidd would rather think Anthony is simple, just an ordinary player can follow him?

It was absolutely impossible at that time. After the Nets came back, Garnett saved the master at the basket, but ran over, Li Feng immediately dribbled the ball and stopped to cover Anthony. He watched Anthony catch the ball and then made a short shot, and quickly made a two-point shot.

Kidd really started to have a headache at this moment. Two minutes of the game have passed, but there has been no change in the sidelines. The Pelicans still suppressed the Nets and played. Although their inside players performed well in the fourth quarter, Garnett and Garnett performed bravely at critical moments, but they could never break the score.

His inside line is chasing points, but his outside line is constantly missing points. Anthony plays Livingston like a monkey. His strange running position and unique attacking method make Livingston unable to defend at all. Li Feng restrains Anthony's entire experience. The Nets' outside line has become a huge funnel for the Pelicans, but the Pelicans' inside players still have a lot of fouls. And there are plenty of substitutes, and they are fouling wantonly.

The situation is extremely serious for the Nets. The game reached 7 minutes and 49 seconds in the fourth quarter. In the last few minutes, the Pelicans still led the Nets by 10 points. At this moment, Kidd glanced at Deron and he had rested for a few minutes. Now he should grasp the entire team at the last moment.

Kidd was ready to replace Delong for the final decisive battle. At this moment, Li Feng confronted Anthony in the Nets' half. Li Feng and Anthony's defense moves became increasingly fierce during their contact with each other.

Li Feng's movements became more and more rude because he knew that Anthony had many fouls. So he was like putting pressure on him. Today, the thing Anthony was most taboo and hate the most was fouls. From the beginning to now, it was fouls that harmed him.

It also harmed the entire Nets. Anthony hated fouls. He rewarded Li Feng's increasingly rough movements with a dark elbow. Li Feng was just a big move. Since Anthony used the dark elbow, Li Feng must also use his elbow to repay Anthony.

In this way, Anthony and Li Feng's movements became increasingly bigger and bigger when they were in contact. Li Feng forced a rough breakthrough to Anthony, and at the same time, he used his elbow to entertain Anthony's chest.

Anthony was naturally unwilling to let go of the small movements behind him, but he still did not stop Li Feng's movements. Li Feng finally made a jump shot. In order to revenge Anthony's small movements, when Li Feng fell down, he also hit Anthony with his elbow.

Anthony cannot suffer any loss. He immediately pushed Li Feng with his elbow. Li Feng and Anthony faced each other's tit-for-tat. The referee immediately came over and gave Anthony a foul. Anthony's previous remarks made Crawford very unhappy, so he doesn't like Anthony now.

Anthony took another foul, and now he has four fouls. The game was originally a few minutes to end, but this is not like Anthony's game. He has two fouls to use, but today Anthony was bullied too much.

He rushed up and argued with Crawford:

"Referee, have you not seen Li Feng? Is it just me in your eyes? Is this your level of law enforcement? If so, why don't you just invite me out of the stadium?"

Anthony was getting angry at Crawford, who was also a famous referee of the NBA. At this time, he could not tolerate Anthony's questioning. Even if you are the top stars in the league, aren't you going out? I will help you.

Crawford immediately made a gesture, and Anthony was asked to leave the court for two technical fouls.

Kidd jumped up all of a sudden. This was the last critical moment of their game. If you lose Anthony and Li Feng will lose control, he must be angry. He also rushed towards the assistant coach who was about to rush over to Crawford and hurriedly grabbed Kidd.

But by this time the game was over, and Li Feng, who had lost Anthony, was absolutely free, and the Nets could not cope with such a game.

The Pelicans finally beat the Nets at home, when the final whistle sounded.

The New Orleans Center cheered and Arenas came over to hug Li Feng hard. He performed very successfully. He scored 23 points, 3 assists, and 4 rebounds in the first game. In the game, Arenas beat the Nets' outside line.

For Arenas, this is an important battle for him, and this game is very important to him.

Li Feng hugged Arenas, and then he hugged Caron Butler hard. Although Caron Butler didn't play much in today's game, he also scored 13 points and scored several key goals.

The Nets' team is also leaving quietly. Today's game is very unfair to the Nets. At least the Nets' own people think so. They lose a lot of unfairly. They can't even use this feeling and are tortured to death.

When the Nets players stood up from the sidelines, they looked at the stadium with great reluctance. They could not believe that they lost like this, nor could they believe that they lost the game in such a frustration.

Deron was the most depressed today. He was tortured to death by his opponent today. No matter where he appeared, his opponent would torture himself. The Nets were definitely not depressed by Deron. Mason Plumley was invited out of the court in the first quarter. Garnett left slowly. Anthony also had two technical fouls and five fouls.

It can be said that the Nets lost awkwardly in this game, and the loss made their entire team feel extremely unhappy.

The Nets spent the night at the New Orleans Center very depressed, and when they left the court, they were still very reluctant to leave.

Li Feng walked towards the player passage from the court. At this time, an espn reporter blocked Li Feng's way and said:

"Mr. Li Feng, what do you think about you defeating the Nets at home today?"

"View? I don't like this word very much. I should say that my feeling is very good. We really defeated a strong team. The Nets are very strong. I am proud of us for defeating this team."

Li Feng put his hands on his waist and smiled brightly.

"So, Li Feng, Arenas beat the opponent today. He performed very well. Do you have anything to say?"

"You want me to praise that guy directly, well, OK, I will do this right away. After Arenas's return, his performance was amazing. His performance was almost comprehensive. You know, his scoring methods were not flexible in the past, but he seemed to be able to do anything tonight. He made every player who defended him feel a headache, and now he is a more dangerous guy."

After returning to a few questions, Li Feng walked into the locker room and took a shower in the locker room. Then he was called by Van Gundy to attend the press conference.

Before going to the press conference, Li Feng felt that today's press conference was very unhappy because the Nets would definitely feel that they lost very wrongly. They would definitely not admit defeat at the press conference. They would definitely find various excuses to explain. It was wrong for their own losses, and they had a good excuse, that is, the referee.

Before going to the press conference, Li Feng thought about various situations and was about to fight with the Nets Five Tigers at the press conference.

At the press conference, Li Feng and Van Gundy immediately saw that Kidd and Anthony and Deron were already waiting in the lobby of the press conference. It seemed that the two of them were waiting for the Pelicans coach and players to come over to have a verbal battle.

Van Gundy smiled at Kidd politely, but Kidd just twitched the corner of his mouth. He was really dissatisfied with the loss today.

Everyone sat down, and the reporter immediately raised his hands, and these reporters also realized that there was absolutely controversy during today's game, and there were definitely some places where neither side was willing to admit it.

The reporter asked:

"Mr. Kidd, do you have any general opinion on this game?"

Kidd was happy at this moment, and he immediately said:

"This is not a game but a conspiracy. Please recall that from the beginning, the Pelicans smashed our team logo. He just wanted to anger our players, and then immediately caused Anthony's technical foul at the beginning of the game. During the game, they used their appearance to play against us to cause our foul."

"After our team had a foul, they began to catch a few people who had fouled more attacks, and did not consume the physical strength of my main players for the purpose of scoring. The Pelicans were not playing a basketball game at all, but a huge conspiracy."

"They won the final victory not by the players and tactics, but by using their little tricks to defeat us, which is shameful."

The press officer once again stopped Kidd's remarks, and he made Kidd feel more and more excited.

The reporters are very smart. Since Kidd has started to fire, how could they miss Van Gundy? A reporter immediately asked the same question to Van Gundy, and Van Gundy answered calmly.

"If we win the first game, their mentality will be unstable. What if I tore their jerseys apart, would they murder me? This is completely unfair. They have a bad mentality, so it makes no sense for us to take responsibility.

Anthony does have a lot of physical contact with Ross, but why does Anthony have to argue with the referee? My players, including myself, cannot force this to happen. When this happens, they take the initiative and I cannot force them. Their foul is their business. It has nothing to do with my players, and it is the same in the game."

"We all know that Brooklyn is a team of iron blood. When facing such a team, our actions will certainly be tougher. Can't we fight back when facing Brooklyn, we can't fight back? This makes no sense. We fight back, so the opponent fouls. This is very simple. This has nothing to do with us."

"As for our players who specifically target players who have more fouls and consume the physical strength of their main players, this question is a bit stupid. Am I a rookie coach? As long as I am a professional coach, I will tell my team to attack the opponent's weaknesses and attack the opponent's weak physical strength players. It is normal."

"If I don't do this and keep my opponent's weaknesses against myself, I'm not a professional coach at all. I'm a professional fool. I can really see that Coach Kidd is still a little naive."

The press officer saw that Van Gundy also began to attack Kidd and he hurriedly stopped the topic.

Although the press officer was trying his best to maintain order, when he saw Kidd and Van Gundy on the scene, they saw that sparks were really flying everywhere. Li Feng looked at Van Gundy in surprise. He felt that although Van Gundy was right today, it was not very cost-effective to stimulate his opponents like this.

...

The Pelicans won two consecutive victories in the Finals, very close to O'Brien's Cup.

Next, he will move to Brooklyn. At this time, the Pelicans are in a tragedy, perhaps with joy. Derek Ross's warm-up accident was sprained before the start of the game and missed the third game between the two sides. The Nets, who lost the first two games, shared the same hatred for the enemy and seized the opportunity to win one at home.

In the third game, Li Feng and Kevin Garnett had a conflict and the two were suspended for two games.

The Pelicans are missing Li Feng, Ross Millsap, and even if Al Jefferson returns from suspension, he is chased by the Nets to 2-2.

The situation suddenly reversed, and the Pelicans' home court, New Orleans Arena, was held as scheduled in Game 5.

Neither Li Feng nor Garnett could play in this game, but the impact on the Nets was not as big as that of the Pelicans. Their interior also has two All-Stars, David Lee and Lopez. The Pelicans only have Al Jefferson and the old and young combination Brand and Henson.

Before the game started, the reporters surrounded Li Feng in the middle and sent all the long spears and short cannons to Li Feng.

"Li Feng, how does it feel to wear a suit to watch the game today?"

Li Feng didn't expect that he would clearly not play the game, and so many people came to interview him.

"Oh, it feels great. I used to just see Al and Paul watching the game in suits, and the seats were pretty good. Now it's my turn. I'm grateful for such an opportunity,"

Li Feng responded freely on the sidelines. When Li Feng said this, the reporters laughed.

"Then Li Feng, you don't play today, Paul Millsap doesn't play, Derek Ross doesn't play, and many people in the team don't play, you just face the challenge with 12 people, so do you still have the confidence to win?"

The reporters were asking this question. When Li Feng heard this question, he was immediately awesome. The reporters who supported the Nets said a little unheard of their attention:

"You should know that the outcome is no longer important to us now, and the championship can't escape even if it wants to."

This sentence is really lethal, and the outcome doesn't matter.

Next, Li Feng said:

"Even if we don't play in this game, it doesn't mean that my teammates will lose. You underestimate us too much."

After Li Feng finished this arrogantly, he strides into the players' passage, waiting for the start of the game.

Although there are many people coming to the New Orleans Arena today, they are not as wild as before, because there are too many stars missing in this game, and many people are waiting for the sixth battle.

The Nets lack Garnett, but today they are still their strongest lineup, point guard Deron, shooting guard Joe Johnson, small forward Cameron Anthony, power forward David Lee, and center Brooke Lopez.

The Pelicans are a mixed lineup, point guard Oladipo, shooting guard Arenas, small forward Caron Butler, power forward Al Jefferson, center Henson.

Judging from the lineup, it is really not easy for the Nets to get rid of the Pelicans. It is not easy for the Nets to win the Pelicans in this lineup. From various positions, the Pelicans' losses are actually not big.

The referee whistle sounded and the game began. Lopez used his experience to point the basketball in Joe Johnson's hands. Joe Johnson got the basketball and immediately advanced to the Pelicans' half. The Pelicans' mixed lineup has a clear difference compared to their main lineup. That is, the physical condition is actually more fierce, but the control ability on the court will be worse.

None of these players can control the situation, they are all powerful players.

Joe Johnson immediately sent the basketball to Anthony after halftime, but Anthony was obviously not the main attack point in the first quarter. Anthony, who got the basketball, quickly dropped the basketball toward a low position.

After taking David Lee, he has already gotten stuck in Al Jefferson. David Lee actually has the speed advantage over Al Jefferson. There are differences in hardness and bounce, but today David Lee is taking advantage of such a little gap.

He dribbled in one step. Then he suddenly turned over and found an opportunity on Al Jefferson's head, and then made a jump shot with ease.

Basketball made a quick shot, which shows that David Lee felt good today. In the past, he was not the main scoring point, but today he gave the Nets strong support from the start of the game.
