The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 159 [For ten consecutive victories, fight! 】

With Ye Feng's words, James choked so hard that he didn't know how to respond.

"Puppet" and "son" are the two words that James dislikes the most.Brown really depends on his face in the team, and people all over the world are saying that he is Stern's godson.He likes the star treatment the league gives, but he doesn't like being told that Stern is where he is today.

Cavaliers starting lineup, Ilgauskas, Ben Wallace, James, Mo Williams, Delonte West.

The Clippers' starting five: Gortat, Smith, Ye Feng, Wright, Lowry.

Gortat won the ball and the Clippers got the ball. "Big Z" Ilgauskas can barely jump up now, and he is just on his toes when scrambling for the ball. He can occupy the starting lineup of the Cavaliers, all thanks to his experience and stable mid-range shooting.He is one of the smartest inside players in the league, and he cooperates very well with James.

Lowry dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and passed it to Smith. Ye Feng ran like Smith and caught the ball from the left side into the three-point line with a screen. Wallace immediately switched defenses to block his way, moving very quickly.Being able to become the four-time best defensive player, he is not a vegetarian.His excellent defensive ability is mainly reflected in accurate prediction and outstanding positioning ability, as well as excellent defensive awareness.

As long as you block the first step and prevent Ye Feng from accelerating, you can disrupt his rhythm.He has only two options of breakthrough and pass, and he will not easily shoot a three-pointer outside the three-point line.

Without space to carry the ball, Ye Feng tried to protect the ball with his back and tried to dribble inside, but he couldn't squeeze it. Wallace was stronger than him, and his athletic ability and wingspan were not bad.Although the state has declined in the past two years, the emaciated camel is still bigger than the horse.

Ye Feng passed the ball to Lowry again.Lowry used Gortat's cover to throw off the defense and broke through from the left. Igelskas stood on the inside line, two steps away from Lowry. The stop jumper missed, and James grabbed the backboard.

The Cavaliers attacked the frontcourt, James received the ball, and Ye Feng blocked his breakthrough route in front.

Teams generally rely on a blocker in the front to delay his speed and a person in the back to interfere with James.For example, Prince, Hamilton + Big Ben in 2006, Bowen + Duncan in 2007, Pierce, Posey + Garnett in 2008, all defeated the Cavaliers in this way.

This year's Clippers let Ye Feng and Smith join forces.But this trick failed when it came up, and the Cavaliers increased their offensive routines.Mo Williams walked towards the penalty area under the cover of Ilgauskas, and another guard West threw off Wright after covering by the baseline, and cut along the right-wing three-point line to a 60-degree angle on the right.Ye Feng confronted James head-on, unable to take into account the emptiness of the sideline. LeBron scored diagonally to the right side, and West just relied on a screen to open a three-pointer and hit a jumper. 0 to 3.

Ye Feng received the ball and James single-handedly defended, preventing him from turning around. After using a screen, Wallace defended, still using the same method to prevent him from accelerating.

Ye Feng passed the ball to Lowry again, and asked for the ball in the low post, and the ball passed to him, but it still didn't work. Both James and Wallace are masters of post defense.There are not many people in the league whose upper body strength is stronger than Ye Feng's, but there are two knights. Today he has no advantage in strength.

Ye Feng took two steps against James, first swayed his right shoulder, then turned in the opposite direction to shoot a jumper. This move was difficult to block, but after taking off, he clearly saw James' big hand approaching.He judged that the ball would be blocked, and relied on his super air dominance ability to pass the ball to Gortat in the high position. The attack time was running out, and Gortat missed the jumper under the interference of Ilgauskas , James stood in advance and won the backcourt rebound.

The Cavaliers attacked, and the defenders relied on the cover to intersperse and run back, pulling out the gap, and the same tactic as before, Mo Williams received a pass from James outside the 60-degree three-point line on the left, and made a quick move before Gortat defended. The shot hits. 0 to 6.

Williams made 44 percent of his [-]-pointers and had to defend.The Clippers were scored by the same tactic twice in a row and got off to a bad start.

James has no main attack. After being defeated by the Rockets, the Cavaliers began to study how other players can move without the ball to get open tactics, and it has already achieved results.Now simply relying on "blocking" to defend James is not very useful.James can help the team even if he doesn't score. He is a good organizer.But you can't ignore him.Ye Feng had to focus on him.

The Clippers only have Wright's three-point firepower on the court, and it is not easy to run out of open space. The Clippers' outside players need Ye Feng to attack and attract double-teams.Today the Cavaliers won't double-team Ye Feng, and the Clippers' shortcomings are revealed. The offense is just a few routines, and after a pick-and-roll, it becomes a separate battle.

Lowry used Ye Feng's high screen to break through, and James didn't switch defenses.Lowry made a frontal throw in the penalty area, avoided Ilgauskas' block, the ball went wide again, and Wallace grabbed the backcourt rebound.

Seeing this situation, Thibodeau has a headache. If Lowry can't make the ball, he can only let Barea play, which may break the Cavaliers' defense.But in this way, the defensive end is even more problematic. Mo Williams has a clear height advantage against Barea.

Lowry's shooting practice is not good, and he is unqualified for the starting lineup.The uniform team has already rejected Thibodeau's trade proposal. He played the Bulls in the last game, and Hinrich played very averagely. It is even less likely that they will spend a lot of money to introduce this role player.The trade will be closed after the All-Star Game. Thibodeau is a bit unwilling to rely on the current lineup to play. If he loses this time, he wants to have a good talk with Ye Feng.Lowry and Ye Feng used to be teammates in the Grizzlies. He believes that Ye Feng's obstruction of the transaction has personal emotions in it. The Clippers really need a point guard who can shoot three-pointers and defend steadily, otherwise they will not be able to achieve a balanced offense and defense.

Ye Feng is under a lot of pressure now, he can't attack and must defend.This game must not be lost.If the 9-game winning streak is lost, the agreement with Ariel will have to start from the beginning, that would be too irritating.He also felt a little ironic. Just now when James said that he was one-on-one with him, if he agreed, James would attack by himself, which seemed to be better than the current pass.What he is most afraid of is that the opponent supports the offense and sends a good ball, which makes him weak and useless.

The Cavaliers attacked for the third time. Ilgauskas covered James in the high position and blocked Ye Feng. James broke through inside and Smith followed up to the bottom line with all his strength. Open Smith.His movements are very ugly, with splayed legs, giving the defender the urge to kick his buttocks.This unsightly recoil was thrown in. 0 to 8.

Ye Feng became anxious and decided to rely on the pick-and-roll. Now someone must stand up and score. When he served the ball, he shouted: "Maxin, Josh, get out of the paint."

The teammates understood what he meant as soon as they heard it, and the effect of letting Smith beat Wallace is definitely not as good as his strong attack.

Ye Feng went to the front court and relied on Gortat's off-ball screen to get rid of James from the outside. Lowry passed the ball into his hands and faced Ben Wallace one-on-one.

Wallace also has weaknesses. His single-defense ability is not as good as that of assist defense. The main problem is his height.As an insider, his actual height is only 201CM.After taking the ball, Ye Feng stepped down and dribbled towards the low post, stopped suddenly and turned around in the middle, separated half a step away from Wallace, and took off with all his strength to shoot with one hand.

The moment he shot, he felt a gust of wind behind him, and he knew it was going to fail.James covered the defense, jumping from behind to block his shot.James is also very good at making up defenses.When Ye Feng turned around, he was determined to attack, it was difficult to see the movement behind his head, James' timing to release Gortat was just right.

West picks up the ball and hits a quick pass to a fast-down Mo Williams.The latter sprinted across the half with the ball, and Lowry fouled the ball when he returned to defense, hindering the Cavaliers' fast break.

A foul ball was issued, and the ball was handed over to James. He broke through Ilgauskas' screen again, and suddenly transferred the ball with both hands in a wide range under the basket, and passed it to West in the left corner.

West relied on Wallace's screen and ran out of space without the ball.Gortat was a little slower to make up the defense from the outside, and West missed the ball.At this time, only Smith was alone under the basket, but Ben Wallace and James occupied the inside line together.

Wallace grabbed the offensive rebound.Without Love, the Clippers' rebound control will be weakened.Love was on the court, but he was afraid that there would be problems with the defense.Wallace's scoring ability was poor, he didn't dare to shoot, and passed to James from close range.

James shoulders Smith and makes a hook shot.Ye Feng came from outside in time, leaped high, and slapped James' hook with a big cap. Wright picked up the basketball and held it tightly in his arms.

Van Gundy exclaimed: "It's so beautiful, Ye Feng returned a big hat to James."

Qiongbali sighed: "The physical fitness of these three people is really amazing. Smith also has credit. He squeezed James and prevented him from jumping high, so he chose to hook."

Ye Feng rushed past the half court, then reached out for the ball again, very resolutely.If you can't even beat the Cavaliers, how will you deal with the possible "Big Three Heat" in the future?Now it may be the Big Four, and Mayo.

With the help of Mo Williams and West, if the Clippers can't defend against it, thinking about the cooperation between Wade and James, Ye Feng feels chilling.

Smith made a high screen, Ye Feng received the ball inside the three-point line, and Gortat stayed in the right corner to attract defense.

He dribbled the ball to the left and met Wallace.Ye Feng stopped suddenly while running and turned his head to the right, holding the scout's right shoulder with his right hand, causing Wallace's center of gravity to shift to the middle, he immediately dribbled the ball under his crotch and handed over his left hand to start at full speed, rushing towards the baseline.

Wallace was passed, and Ilgauskas made up the defense at the basket.

This game must be won!For ten consecutive victories, fight!With such conviction in mind, Ye Feng took the ball with his right hand, jumped with all his strength, and bumped into Ilgauskas.

Seeing Ye Feng pounced towards him like a beast, Ilgauskas was frightened, and involuntarily took a small step backwards, not standing still.

boom!Ye Feng smashed the ball into the frame and knocked down the 221cm Ilgauskas!
