The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 237 [Can you break the record of 72 wins? 】

The team won 13 consecutive victories, and his personal "quadruple double" data made Ye Feng once again become the focus of media pursuit after the game.After the match, Ye Feng said a few words and fled back to the locker room.

In this game, he was not very satisfied with his performance on the offensive end. The mid-range shot was too poor and he scored too few points.Although this is related to the Nuggets' special care for him, once his conventional offensive weapons fail, it will be difficult for the team to win.In future games, he plans to go to the court early and make a hundred mid-range shots to find his feeling.

Ye Feng simply took a shower and got out of the bathroom, Curry had also come out.He patted Curry on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Stephen, you did a great job. You have to play like this in the end game. If you can score more than 20 points every game, the game will become very easy."

"Thank you, I will work hard every game, and also on the defensive end." Curry smiled.His defense still needs to be improved, and he is already learning from Kidd.

Curry is the happiest person today. He proved his scoring ability in this game.Barea is very depressed, he didn't score a point, such a performance coach has more reason to put him on the bench.However, he also admitted that Curry is very good. During training, Curry can score more than 100 of 90 three-pointers. No matter how he shoots, it is terrible.As long as he's open, he's almost certain to make it, hitting 47 percent of his [-]s this season.

Smith has also come out of the bathroom, and said from the side: "Ye, I played very badly today, I'm sorry."

Ye Feng smiled and said: "Normal, I didn't feel good today, but I got it back after the game. Didn't we defend well in the second half? This game reminded us that we must not lose our defense."

After a while, reporters flooded into the locker room and began interviewing.Interviews are not limited to the press conference. Reporters can also go to the locker room to interview some role players, and if they are lucky, they can interview stars.Ye Feng was surrounded by people, and the spacious Clippers locker room became a bit crowded.

There are also female reporters among these people.As a female reporter, there will be some embarrassment in the locker room. Players take showers, change clothes, massage, make trash talk jokes, etc...

For the vast majority of players, they have long been used to the presence of female reporters and will not feel awkward because of it. Moreover, experienced players will take measures to prevent exposure in the bathroom, and they can even catch up with them before the locker room is opened. Dressed neatly, it is very calm to accept interviews like this even when facing a group of strange female reporters.

Curry is an inexperienced "rookie". After taking a bath in the first home court, he came out wearing a bath towel. As a result, he saw a group of reporters waiting for interviews in front of his wardrobe. root.Now that he has experience, he can dress neatly before the reporter enters, and rarely reappears the embarrassing scene at the beginning.

There are also many reporters who interviewed Curry today, and some interviewed Love, Kidd and others. The Clippers have no shortage of big names.When asked about his teammates, the players would praise each other. Curry said that Kidd was his master and his idol, and Kidd praised Curry's shooting.

After Ye Feng talked a lot about the game, he began to answer questions about "blocking shots".He averaged 2 blocks per game last season, and after this game, he will be at the top of the block list.His ability to block shots is recognized as the strongest among non-center players in the league. Big-name players such as Wade, Kobe, Anthony, Pierce, etc. have all been blocked by him.

The reporter asked: "What inspired your blocking potential?"

Ye Feng didn't know how to answer the first question. He smiled and said, "It's hard to explain. It's probably because of my high jump, fast speed, and long arms. With these conditions, and because I'm a striker, I have a better chance." To help the other bigs, most of my blocks come from touchdowns."

The reporter asked: "What are the steps you took to take the cover?"

What kind of bird problem is this? Which person's blocking step is not "raising hands, jumping up, and blocking shots"?Of course Ye Feng couldn't answer that way, he said with a smile: "Normally, I don't have time to think about the steps. If I see the right shot, I'll hit it, or it will be too late. I won't jump up and block every time the opponent makes a shot. Sometimes I just get closer to the opponent and not attack." Try to interfere with the shot as much as possible to reduce its percentage. Some players are very smart, they will fake, and if you jump too early, you will call a foul, so when I have this situation, I will try not to block the shot, Just throw your hands up, some games it doesn't work very well, some it does, some times it just depends on luck."

The reporter asked: "Do you have any tricks when blocking shots?"

Ye Feng said with a smile: "There is no trick, just a firm defense and physical fitness. From the beginning of my career, I have been very good at blocking shots. I can help the team win by relying on this, and I will continue to do so."

The reporter asked: "Do you improve your blocking skills from the way your opponent shoots?"

Ye Feng replied: "I have done some research and took notes last season, but there are too many games to play, so it is difficult to record them all."

The reporter asked: "When you finish the block, do you feel the opponent's surprise or trembling?"

Ye Feng smiled and said: "I think being blocked is a very frustrating thing. On the contrary, it can make the morale of teammates soar. Sometimes this is the winning factor. When I am blocked, I am very depressed, although it does not happen often."

The reporter asked: "You are very good in many aspects. Today you scored few points but got a quadruple-double. Which game style will give you greater satisfaction?"

"There's satisfaction in winning, that's what everyone thinks. An ugly win is better than a loss with spectacular numbers."

After dealing with a group of reporters in the locker room, Ye Feng went to the press conference with Curry, Kidd, and Thibodeau. He was used to being so busy.Ariel will not stay in the arena, go straight home and have people prepare supper and wait for him.

At the press conference, Nuggets coach George Karl praised Ye Feng. "Ye Feng's defense is the key to the victory of this game. He is omnipotent on the defensive end. I think the Clippers are already a super strong team, even more terrifying than last season."

Anthony was a little unconvinced. He said: "This is just a regular season. It's okay to lose. We will definitely play better in the playoffs."

Thibodeau admitted his mistake. "I made some mistakes in the lineup. We had a good offense in the first few games. I believed in the offense too much. It was wrong to lose the defense that survived when we lined up. To get a hearty victory, the defense essential."

The Nuggets are not weak, and they deserve the third place in the Western Conference. They are only a little behind the Clippers. They have a chance to win.This game reminded Thibodeau that only with both offense and defense is the best way to win.

The reporter asked: "What do you think of Ye Feng's performance?"

Thibodeau thought for a while and said: "He missed a lot of shots in the first half. The team was in trouble. In the second half, he adjusted in his own way and led the team to victory. His defense is top-notch. Points, but also help the team in other ways. He is a very good leader."

When interviewing Ye Feng, the reporters asked about the goals of the Clippers.

Ye Feng said seriously: "The goal is the championship, I have said it many times. The short-term goal is to win the next game and let the winning streak continue."

The next day, the news began to brag about Ye Feng's defense. "The Hungry Wolf with Excellent Offense and Defense", "The True Leader of Active Defensiveness", "The Hungry Wolf Destroyed the Melon in the Second Half"... Just looking at the title, you can see that it is all praise. The Clippers won the Nuggets by 6 points, but after looking at the evaluation Ye Feng's charisma exploded over Anthony for a few blocks.

American Sports magazine wrote an article "Can the Clippers Break the 72-Win Record?" "

The article analyzes the Clippers' lineup configuration in detail and predicts their possibility of winning the championship.Experts point out that the five most important people in the Clippers are Ye Feng, Smith, Love, Kidd, and Curry.

Ye Feng is the core on both ends of the offense and defense; Smith has injected vitality into the second team; Love's rebounds are very important, especially the rebounds in the backcourt are well protected, making it difficult for opponents to attack again; Kidd can play a stable role The role of military spirit, controlling the situation at critical moments, will not let the team fall into chaos; and Curry is the X factor of the Clippers. If he breaks out, the Clippers will definitely win.

It is not the current NBA team that is compared with the Clippers.Both the Lakers and the Nuggets lost to the Clippers once this season. Although they didn't play against the Celtics, Magic, and Cavaliers, the top three in the East, the Clippers are not at a disadvantage according to the analysis of the lineup.Experts believe that as long as Ye Feng is not injured, the current suspense is whether the Clippers will break the regular season record of 72 wins and 10 losses created by the Bulls!And it's very possible.

The Bulls didn't rely on Jordan alone.There is Australian center Longley on the inside, power forward Rodman controls rebounding and defense, and "Batman" Pippen is at the small forward position. When Jordan retired for the first time, Pippen led the team to 65 wins independently.The defenders have Harper who is good at defense and has experience, and there is also a sharpshooter Cole on the bench, and Kukoc, the No.1 in Europe at the time, etc...

Now the Clippers Ye Feng also has both offense and defense, and his leadership qualities have also been affirmed.Smith is like Pippen of the Clippers, averaging 15 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists per game in the second team.In addition to rebounding, Love can also evacuate the inside and score. The comprehensive effect can also be compared with Rodman, and the Clippers' point guard is better than the Bulls, which is their advantage.

In addition to its own strength, objective factors are also beneficial to the Clippers.

The teams in the Western Conference this season are not as strong as in previous years, and the strength of many traditional strong teams has declined.Take the Rockets for example, their back line is often blown out, let alone defending the title, it is difficult to even make it to the playoffs, Ariza is not as good as Artest, the management may send him out during the season.

The Spurs veteran Bowen retired, and the GDP combination is one year older. The new players are only two veterans, Jefferson and McDyess, and rookie Blair. They will not be better than last season.

The Mavericks lost Kidd, the Jazz lost Boozer, the Suns had no defense, the Thunder never beat the Clippers, the Blazers were too young, and the core Roy had a knee problem... In contrast, the only team in the Western Conference with the ability to The Clippers only compete with the Lakers and Nuggets, and the Clippers have already defeated them.

Amazingly, the Clippers' salary is currently the lowest among all playoff teams.
