The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 542 [Full Firepower]

In the last two games, Ye Feng's offensive efficiency was not high. He scored around 30 points and his shooting percentage was less than 5%.James is an offensive star, but in order to deal with Ye Feng, he is willing to become an outside blue-collar, pestering him closely, preventing Ye Feng from receiving the ball comfortably.

In order for Ye Feng to attack with the ball smoothly, in addition to double screens in the frontcourt, another way is to let him catch the ball in the backcourt.After the timeout ended, the Gasol brothers came on the field together, surrounded by Harrison Barnes and Matt Barnes, and Ye Feng moved to the point guard position.

After the timeout, the Clippers attacked, and James pressed in the backcourt.Ye Feng took the ball across half court and passed it to Barnes. The latter dropped a low post to Gasol Jr. to single Dalembert, turned around and missed the shot.Looking back, the Heat gave the Clippers a heavy blow. Wade hit a three-pointer and widened the point difference to 27 points.

Shooting three-pointers has never been Wade's strong point, but this shot was so steady that the fans couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

Ye Feng has received instructions to make unlimited shots.He dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, stretched out his fingers and signaled to his teammates, Gasol came out to cover and blocked James, Ye Feng did not bring the ball inside, and jumped behind Gasol for a three-pointer, and escaped with the screen James and Dalembert's block goal scored!Returned a three-pointer.

The Heat attacked, Wade missed a jumper, and the rebound was obtained by Gasol Jr.Both the Gasol brothers have an advantage in height and almost completely occupy the restricted area.In order to defend the inside, Bosh averaged 42 minutes per game in this series, and Dalembert got a lot of playing time.

The ball was brought to the front court, Gasol Jr. pulled out to cover, Ye Feng chose to break through with the ball from the left, Dalembert switched defenses, Ye Feng didn't make any fake moves, dribbled the ball and shifted out of position, skipped over Lost Dalembert jumped up and threw the ball.Ye Feng has already scored 20 points, but the Clippers are still behind by as many as 22 points.

"We can catch up! Defend!" Back in defense, Ye Feng shouted at his teammates.

James is also the Heat's point guard, dribbling the ball across half court and passing it out.Wade catches the ball on the left and plays a pick-and-roll with Bosh.The Clippers defended, Gasol blocked Wade's breakthrough route, Wade made a sudden stop and shot a jumper, and the ball missed again.During this period of time, Wade's shooting percentage began to decline, and the rebound was taken by Gasol Jr.In the matchup with Dalembert, Gasol Jr. had the upper hand.

When he first entered the league, Gasol Jr. was picked at the end of the second round. He was a marginal player when he entered the Lakers, and no one took him seriously.Later, he transferred to the Grizzlies and broke out in a short period of time. People only thought that he was worthy of a middle class, no better than Gortat and McGee.Now Gasol has become the backbone of the Clippers inside.The performance in the finals was not inferior to that of his brother.Other than Ye Feng, he was the best performer today.Ye Feng led the half court to Harrison, and the latter lobbed to the low post Gasol and ran to the baseline. Ye Feng was at 60 degrees, and the three formed a triangle.

Gasol's desire to win is also very strong. He believes that he can deal with Dalembert. The opponent is old and has not played well in the Kings and Rockets.He dribbled with his back to the inside, resisted Dalembert, turned around and hit the board, adding two more points.The Clippers are 20 points behind.

James dribbled the ball across half court, relying on Bosh's screen to break through and pass the ball to Ray Allen on the outside. The latter was targeted by Harrison, and passed to Bosh without a chance to make a phone call.

The 5 Clippers are all over two meters tall, and they don't suffer from misplaced defensive shots.Bosh dribbled the ball to the inside, but was blocked by Ye Feng, and passed the ball to James.Gasol's closeness prevented James from speeding up to the basket. Seeing that the time was up, James jumped up and shot without swaying the defense. Although he avoided Gasol by relying on his ugly backward posture Blocks shots, but barely sees the rim with distractions, and shoots hard.The rebound was taken by Gasol Jr.

The Clippers finally had a tendency to chase points. In the next round, Ye Feng turned around and shot a jumper but hit the iron again.

The Heat's offense still played positional battles in a leisurely manner. James controlled the ball to the frontcourt, and Ye Feng defended alone.James only encountered double-teams when Dalembert pulled out the outside line, otherwise he was single-defense.James relied on Bosh's screen breakthrough.Gasol's defense was in place, James first swayed to the middle, then turned to the baseline and scored a jumper.

The Heat's offense is very powerful. If they can't defend, the Clippers can't win.In the last 3 minutes, the Clippers had a good offense. Gasol succeeded in two singles against Dalembert. Ye Feng made two mid-range shots and broke through to make a foul and get a free throw.

At halftime, the Clippers were 47 points behind 67 to 20.The situation is still very unfavorable for the Clippers.

When analyzing the game, Barkley sighed: "The Clippers are so far behind today not only because Thornton is absent, the Heat's shooting is too good, 58% shooting rate, against the Clippers' 44%, it is normal to be behind by a big score , and the Clippers made a lot of turnovers today, Hinrich made three turnovers alone, and Thibodeau is afraid to use him anymore. It is estimated that Ye Feng will continue to play point guard in the second half."

Kenny Smith said: "Isaiah Thomas was replaced after only playing for 5 minutes. He was figured out by the Heat. If he played, the Heat would keep running, picking and rolling, giving the ball to James or Bosh singled him out, the loophole is too obvious. Thomas is a very good player, playing hard, but his physical flaws cannot be made up for."

On the ESPN side, "Magic" Johnson felt sorry for the Clippers. They had a great situation, but they were only one step away from the four consecutive championships. They were already at a disadvantage if they failed to win the game.Johnson doesn't think the Clippers can catch up, unless the Heat's shooting percentage drops in the second half, and the Clippers have to guarantee the offense.

In the second half, Thibodeau did not intend to let Thomas and Hinrich play, and Ye Feng continued to serve as point guard.The other four are the Gasol brothers, Harrison and Barnes.

Gasol Jr. has a lot of experience in playing Dalembert. The Heat adopted substitutions. Parsons played at the 3rd position, and James had to fight inside on the defensive end.James often does this kind of thing. Last year in the London Olympics, the United States only brought three insiders, so James will take on the task of inside defense.When playing Spain, he fought against the Gasol brothers. At that time, the two brothers defeated Love and Chandler.

The Heat went first, and James dribbled the ball across half court and passed it to Wade.Wade and Bosh pick and roll, Parsons also pulls out the outside line to cover for Ray Allen, Wade dribbles the ball and breaks through the ball, Ray Allen shoots after receiving the ball, Gasol can only defend out, moving slowly, giving Ray Allen has a better chance to make a move.But Ray Allen missed the ball.He didn't feel very good today either.

When he was in the Celtics, Ray Allen's state had already begun to decline. After entering the playoffs this year, he seemed to be just an ordinary role player, not a giant.The rebound was caught by Ye Feng, and when the Gasol brothers were all defended, he and Barnes had to take on the task of protecting the basket.In the first half, he not only scored 26 points, but also grabbed 5 rebounds and sent 3 assists.

The Clippers attacked, Ye Feng dribbled the ball across the half court, and the defender became Parsons.Parsons didn't press the frontcourt to prevent the Gasol brothers from setting screens in the backcourt. Ye Feng can accelerate with the ball.Seeing that Parsons was defending, Ye Feng stopped hanging the ball into the low post. Barnes and Harrison opened up to create space for him to attack with the ball.

Ye Feng dribbled the ball into the three-point line from the right, and Wade let go of Barnes to defend.Barnes felt too bad today, Ye Feng no longer had the confidence to pass it to him.Ye Feng took the ball with both hands, swayed towards Barnes' position, pretended to pass the ball, Wade paused.Because he was on his back, Parsons couldn't see clearly.Ye Feng then turned towards the baseline and made a jumper with a fadeaway, and the ball went into the net hollow.This simple feint moved the two of them.

49 to 67, the point difference narrowed to less than 20 points.

The Clippers players on the defensive end are paying full attention. If the Heat hit another climax, the game will be lost.James was stuck very tightly by Ye Feng, it was difficult to turn around, but he chose to attack. He was at a disadvantage in statistics today, and wanted to score a goal on Ye Feng's head to prove his strength.He dribbled to the right, turned low and missed a jumper.

The rebound was taken by Gasol Jr.He grabbed a lot of rebounds today and has a physical advantage against all the insiders of the Heat.Gasol is a little tired, he has to go out to defend Parsons.

After the ball passed halftime, Gasol and Gasol pulled to the outside to cover together, giving up the low post to Barnes.Barnes' outside shooting is unreliable, and he can always score at the basket.If he plays Wade in a misplaced position, his rebounding ability is superior.The screen was football-style, as the Clippers often do during the regular season.The two brothers stood together and lined up a wall to block the opponent and create a mobile phone opportunity for Ye Feng.

This round, the two brothers completely blocked Parsons and James, and they could only go around from the side if they wanted to block the shot.Ye Feng didn't care if there was anyone grabbing the rebound, whether it was reasonable or not, as soon as the opportunity came up, he would just pull out his shot, with a low arc, hitting the back edge of the basket and making a hit. 52 to 67.

Still 15 points away.The fans shouted loudly and saw hope again.

The Heat attacked, James controlled the rhythm and passed to Wade.Wade and Bosh played pick-and-roll cooperation, and the Clippers players followed the defense very tightly, and finally found a sense of defensive rhythm.The players were scolded by Mahon, Mutombo, and Thibodeau during the intermission, and the speed seemed to speed up.

Wade points the ball to Bosh, Bosh also misses the shot, and the Heat's shooting percentage drops.The rebound was grabbed by Barnes and quickly passed to Ye Feng.Ye Feng dribbled the ball for halftime, facing James and Ray Allen back to defend, he dribbled twice under the crotch and changed direction, and led to the left. Seeing Harrison coming up, he stopped and took the ball in Harrison's direction feint.Ray Allen hurriedly went to guard Harrison, James took a small step back, but unexpectedly, Ye Feng made a fake move and suddenly pulled up and shot.James' reaction was quick, and he sealed his eyes with his hands, but missed them.Ye Feng opened fire and hit a three-pointer again.This is Ye Feng's fourth three-pointer in this field. 4 to 55.

The Clippers hit an 8-0 shock wave, and the game has suspense again.
