The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 183 [The Lakers who counterattacked strongly, the Clippers without home court]

After the Clippers won their first win in the playoffs, fans all over the world compared Ye Feng and Kobe's results in the regular season.

叶锋出场39.3分钟，29.7分5.8篮板3.4助攻1.2抢断2盖帽。投篮命中率51.7%。罚球命中率77.5%。

科比只打36分钟，26.8分5.2篮板5助攻1.4抢断0.5盖帽。投篮命中率46.5%，三分球命中率35%，罚球命中率85.6%。

Ye Feng played 3 minutes more than Kobe. Kobe's three-point shooting rate was lower and his attack range was wider. In comparison, the offensive efficiency of the two players was not much different.

Kobe is definitely superior in assist ability. Ye Feng can only assist his teammates to score when the team sends a pitcher or a fast break.Passing awareness is difficult to train, Ye Feng's progress is slow, it's hard to call it comprehensive.Kobe's shortcoming is that in the choice of shooting timing, he likes difficult shots.Overall, the two have their own strengths.You can't compare the results by looking at the data. To say who is better depends on the series.

On April 4, the NBA officially announced the first important award of the regular season. The head coach of the Cavaliers, Mike Brown, was elected the best coach of the year. This is called the victory of the puppet.Rick Adelman of the Rockets ranked second, and Tom Thibodeau of the Clippers was third.

Thibodeau is very happy to be a candidate for the best coach in the first season. If he can lead the team to defeat the Lakers and advance to the next round, he will definitely get a higher evaluation.Now the Clippers have a good chance. If they can win the next game, they can lead 2-0 with a big score.Few teams can complete a comeback after losing two games first.

But it is not so easy to win the Lakers in a row.Ye Feng's worries after the game soon became reality. On the 22nd, the Lakers changed their team for the second game, and Kobe was not alone.

The Lakers used a mixed defense, Ariza defended Ye Feng alone, and the other four compressed the defense to occupy the four corners of the penalty area.This is a tactic developed for the Clippers starters who are not allowed to shoot outside shots. In the fourth quarter of the last game, the Lakers used this method, and the effect was good.

The Clippers did not let Hayes start, and sent a combination of Love, Gortat, Smith, Ye Feng, and Tony Allen.The only one who can shoot three-pointers is Smith, who hits [-]% of his shots.

The Lakers' starting lineup is Gasol, Odom, Ariza, Kobe, Fisher.The two big players couldn't come out inside. If Ye Feng went to the low post to catch the ball, it would be difficult to get easy shots. Odom could double-team, and the Lakers chose to let Gortat and Tony Allen go.Gortat's mid-range shots are still not quite accurate this season, and Allen also focuses on breakthroughs. The Lakers are full of people at the basket, so let him shoot from the outside.

Ye Feng couldn't hit the basket, so he could only shoot, and there was always someone interfering in front of him.The Lakers also seized the Clippers' goal. The offense allowed Pau Gasol to be alone in the low post, and everyone else was on the outside. If the shot fails, it can guarantee a quick return to defense.As long as the zone defense system is formed, the Clippers will be uncomfortable, and pitchers are needed to break the zone defense.

If the pitcher is replaced and the defense weakens, Kobe has a chance on the perimeter.In this game, the Clippers did not play a quick counterattack in the first game, and the offense was effectively contained.The Lakers stormed inside. After Gasol came off the court, Bynum and Gasol Jr. led by 20 points at halftime.

Thibodeau felt that he was losing no matter what, so it was better to fight hard. In the second half, three pitchers were replaced, Wright, Morrow, and Chalmers.

Ye Feng was in charge of attracting the defense, and the outside trio shot three-pointers. The offense did improve, but the inside still suffered.Kobe also began to score on the perimeter. Without Barnes, Smith, and a pick-and-roll, the Clippers' defense was in disarray.

最终比分89比112，快船输了23分。叶锋只得到22分8篮板2助攻1盖帽，不敌科比30分4篮板5助攻1抢断。

All five Lakers starters scored in double figures, and Fisher also scored 11 points.Hit 3 three-pointers.

On April 4th, it was still the Staples Center. The two sides had a third contest, and the Clippers lost again 24 to 91.This time, Thibodeau let Barea start, and Le Foley used pick-and-roll tactics to attack the Lakers' inside line and achieved some results.They also let Ye Feng come on stage early in the second quarter, chasing points with a substitute.But this is only three quarters without falling behind.

到了第四节，叶锋拼到几乎抽筋，得分效率降低，全场他打了44分钟，拿下36分12篮板3助攻1盖帽的两双成绩。快船无法阻挡湖人第四节的爆发。加索尔26分11篮板4助攻，科比26分7篮板6助攻。两人出色的发挥让叶锋的全场最高分再次成为无用功。

After three games, even the fans clearly discovered what the Clippers lost, and that was the three-pointer.If you want to ensure defense, the Clippers can't send in pitchers.They lack outside firepower, and no matter how hard the starters try, it is difficult to catch up with the score.The Lakers only need to quickly return to defense after shooting and stand in a good position to defend.

Love's data is also very gorgeous, averaging 13 points, 14 rebounds and 2 assists per game. He looks like a top insider. Howard was not so fierce in his first season, but Love is really useless on the defensive end, whether it is one defense and one defense Dealing with Gasol, or assisting defense, are all weaknesses.And he didn't attack in the low post, and his shots were all concentrated in the high post and on both sides. Like the Cavaliers veteran Ilgauskas, he couldn't play a decisive role.

Ye Feng was in a bad mood, and when he was being interviewed, he didn't know what to say.Blame your teammates?He couldn't say it.They are all young people, how strong can they be?In the end, I had to bear the responsibility for the failure.Kobe's singles, which he thought would be exciting, suddenly became enlightened for some reason. He still shot a lot, but he didn't break away from the team.

Ye Feng never thought that Jackson would threaten to give up coaching. He is indeed a person who can change Kobe and restrict Kobe.

Not only the performance of the players, but also the referee's penalty scale is also bothering the Clippers.During the regular season, Ye Feng sometimes got some favorable penalties. For example, when he made a breakthrough with the ball, he made physical contact with someone. Before he felt anything, the referee blew his whistle.This situation is also happening now, but it is biased towards the Lakers.As expected before the game, the Clippers played three games, all away.

Fans cheering for the Lakers together can easily affect the referee's scale. In order to appease the fans, the referee will brag that the penalty is favorable to the Lakers, and the Clippers will be bragged.

Ye Feng was also troubled by fouls in the second game. Home field advantage is an unacceptable rule in the NBA. Even if the referee that day was the famous Bavita, there were still some disputes about the calls.Ye Feng leaned against the defensive player twice and forcibly turned around to shoot. Once he was hit by an elbow, and once he was hit by a dribble.After the game, Thibodeau also questioned the penalty. It was like deliberately helping the Lakers limit Ye Feng's back attack.In the Lakers team, there is no swingman who can resist Ye Feng in terms of strength.But the outcome has been decided, and it is useless to blame the referee.

On the Internet, there were a lot of people who saw Ye Feng's jokes, it was not good here, and they found a lot of problems.Rational fans watch the game. As long as the two teams work hard, it doesn't matter whether they win or lose. Anyway, they have dedicated a wonderful game to the fans, which is worthy of praise.But some people don't like this. Once the team they support wins, they have to throw stones at the losing side.

The Clippers still have a chance, but looking at those bad comments, it seems that they have already been eliminated, and they are not even qualified to give the Lakers shoes. It seems that the Lakers handed the ball in the first game and lost on purpose.

Ye Feng didn't dare to turn on the computer to watch the news when he got home, there must be nothing good.He played too independently, relying on his body to resist people to break through is nothing special, and he didn't want to watch the words that only the fadeaway jump shot is a pure skill.

Mark Twain's article "Running for Governor" has such a narrative. When he opened the newspaper, he felt that there was a poisonous snake hidden under it.Ye Feng felt even scarier than that now, when he turned on the computer, he felt that there was a Sister Feng on the desktop.

The 7 playoff games are like an exam. You can pass four exams well. Now he has failed two exams and failed one more.

The end is the battle of Tianwangshan. If they lose again, the Lakers will hold the match point, and the Clippers will be in danger.

Ye Feng felt a little confused, and he also had some evil thoughts in his heart, moving his mouth can only affect the mentality of the opponent, and the mentality can be adjusted.If you hurt your opponent with your hands, you can't adjust, you can only repair the game.Ye Feng began to think, should he stretch out his foot like Bowen when Kobe made a jump shot and hurt his ankle?
He was said to play dirty, but in fact it was just that he moved more when blocking shots inside, and he didn't directly hurt anyone. He just thought about this kind of thing and couldn't do it.As long as you think about it, you will know how bad it is to do it. If you stick out, it may just win a game for the Clippers.For those who have been hacked, if they are seriously injured, they will be shadowed for the rest of their lives, and their careers will be affected.

It is easy to be a bad guy in the mouth, but it is difficult to be a bad guy in a game.

In order to play the game well, Ye Feng and Ai Lier slept in separate rooms to recharge their batteries.At night, Ariel changed into a set of loose pajamas and went into Ye Feng's room, and got under the covers.

Ye Feng put his arms around her and said with a smile: "Didn't you agree not to do it today? Why are you here?"

Ariel said lightly: "Seeing that you are so depressed, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well, so I'm here to comfort you."

Ye Feng smiled and said: "Don't you know how attractive you are to me? Once you touch it, you won't be able to hold it back."

Ariel moved a little further away from him, and said lightly: "Then you have to endure it, play well, don't put too much pressure on yourself, fans all over the world know what kind of teammates you have around you, if there is a Someone who can defend and shoot three-pointers can definitely beat the Lakers when you cooperate with him. You are already amazing to enter the playoffs with such a Clippers. Enjoy the game tomorrow, let go of the game, maybe even better You won. You put up good numbers twice in the regular season, and you played with a few pitchers. Although the defense is poor, the offense is hard to defend. I suggest you try to play like that tomorrow, even if you lose, Score more points is also very prestige."

With Ariel's support, Ye Feng felt much more at ease. "You are right. We pay too much attention to defense, and the pitchers don't play much. I will talk to Thibodeau tomorrow."
