Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 201 Never Miss ([-])

Seeing Lian Feng's provocation, Pierce smiled, and did not get angry as Lian Feng imagined.

In the next round, the Celtics will still serve.

Celtic offense.

I have to say that although the Hornets are already top-notch on the offensive end, their performance on the defensive end is not as good.

Of course, Lian Feng can continue to limit Pierce's singles, no matter how bad it is, it can make his offense uncomfortable.

But basketball is, after all, a five-person sport. On defense, Adelman has never been a good player.The Hornets' previous games this season have relied on their strong offensive capabilities to destroy their opponents.

But at this time, when the Celtics restrained the team's defense so much, if their defensive end could not restrain the opponent, this game would be completely at a disadvantage.

Although Lian Feng clearly knew this, he didn't know how to get out of the current predicament.

Pierce can find a way to attack the basket, and the team's insiders must beware of Garnett's iron-blooded jumper, and cannot always help defend the basket, not to mention that there is a killer outside, Ray Allen, who is always watching the Hornets' weakness with cold eyes.

The three areas inside, outside, and outside all have terrifying lethality.

So, the Hornets suddenly collapsed without warning.

Lian Feng fought desperately with Pierce, but Rondo, that kid, could always see the situation and hand the ball to a more suitable person.

First, Garnett hit two mid-range shots, and then when everyone turned their attention to Garnett, Ray Allen was like a poisonous snake, hiding in the bottom line on both sides to receive the ball, and hit three consecutive three-pointers.

On the other hand, the Hornets, because Lianfeng finally got a singles opportunity, one step past the mediocre Pierce, two steps to the basket, and a beautiful pull bar to score the ball.

But that's all.

No matter where the ball is received, Garnett will find the right opportunity to attack.

Instead of being flanked every time, the forward has the angle to pass the ball to an open teammate.

At this time, the passed ball went through two rounds of conduction, and Garnett returned to his original defensive position.

Lianfeng had to marvel at Garnett's terrifying defensive area.

He really supported the team's defensive system on his own!

The unfavorable offensive routine at the beginning of the season suddenly failed, and it was tantamount to a blow to the other players at the beginning, so everyone played a little anxiously, and the more so, the more mistakes will be made.

Tyson Chandler missed twice and David West missed one.

Under the ebb and flow, with 6 minutes left in the second quarter, the Celtics had already led by 18 points!
Looking at the situation on the court, Adelman, who has been looking serious, called a timeout.

A starter is replaced by a substitute.

When Bobby Jackson and Desmond Mason led the second team to play rotation, Adelman began to calmly analyze the situation on the court.

"It's a tough fight! Listen guys, we've had some trouble, but it doesn't matter, let's keep our composure and cut our mistakes! We can get 15 in a row!"

After a pause, Adelman looked at Lian Feng and said, "Tell me about your feelings, Lian."

After hearing Adelman's words, Lian Feng wiped off his sweat, organized his words, and said seriously: "I do have an idea, but it is not a mature strategy."

"Although our offense has a little problem, it's not a big problem. Our real problem lies in defense."

Everyone knows this.

Lian Feng continued: "The efficiency of defense like this is too low...I think we can do this..."

After some detailed explanation, Adelman frowned and glanced at everyone.

Paul said: "I think you can try Lian Feng's approach."

But at this moment, the substitute players on the field brought surprises to the team.

Because both sides were replaced by substitutes, when the Celtics' giants went down, they were suddenly beaten by the Hornets' second team in a 9-0 spurt, and the score was caught within 10 points in an instant.

Seeing this scene, the main players off the field cheered for their teammates on the field.

Lian Feng was overjoyed.

The joining of Korver and Gasol Jr. is really great, and the depth of the team's lineup is guaranteed at once.It can be said that even the second team of the Hornets can compete with the starting team of the middle and lower reaches of the team.

However, looking back at the Celtics, in order to gather the Big Three, the Celtics have given out too many chips, so that there is no one on their bench who can do it.

If Lian Feng remembers correctly, in the middle of this season, they traded the 37-year-old veteran insider PJ Brown and Garnett's old partner Sam Cassell to truly complete the full body evolution.

At this time, the Celtics' second team could only be rubbed against the ground by the Hornets' second team.

The Hornets' system can play smoothly again.

Desmond Mason and Bobby Jackson are both very fast and have outstanding awareness. They can always successfully slip to the bottom line and open the back door. Gasol stands at the top of the arc, and every pass is extremely accurate, and he can always pass the ball to the correct position.

Passing is also a talent, and it is even more rare than running and jumping!
Lian Feng nodded in satisfaction, Gasol's progress was faster than he imagined.

So, before the start of the second quarter, the Hornets' substitutes chased the score to 6 points.

Lian Feng looked up at the scorer above his head. The number displayed on it was 41 to 47. The scores of both sides were not many, which showed how intense this game was.

During the intermission, Lian Feng was invited to connect with TNT's studio.

As soon as Lian Feng put on the headset, he heard Barkley's voice: "Man, how do you feel?"

Lian Feng could only answer: "Not bad, because our teammates chased the score back."

Barkley said: "You only scored 6 points in the first half today. Some people say that you can only play against weak teams. What do you think about this?"

Lian Feng said indifferently: "When did the league's statistical score start to be based on halftime? I have never heard of the first half scoring leader or the first half shooting leader. The game is not about the final result, is it?"

Barkley laughed and said to Johnson next to him: "Honestly, I like the confidence of this kid."

Then he asked Lian Feng: "So how many points are you going to score in the second half?"

Lian Feng said earnestly: "It doesn't matter how many points I score. The important thing is that I want to win. If I don't score a point, the team can win, and I will choose not to score a point. To be honest, I don't care about statistics, I care about winning! But if I have to score 50 points to win, I will choose to score that damn 50 points!"

……

The game continued again. To the surprise of the Celtics, the Hornets adjusted the lineup again. Korver did not play, and Desmond Mason was still on the court.

Lian Feng smiled slightly, but he clearly remembered why the Celtics were dragged into the tiebreaker in the first round against the Eagles in 08!
