Basketball injuries only make me stronger

Chapter 384 I Play Center Forward, You Still Can't
Lian Feng smiled lightly: "It's really interesting, are you asking me not to be so cruel to you?"

Howard was slightly taken aback.Indeed, letting Lian Feng use the traditional center forward's style of play to face him one-on-one is actually admitting in disguise that he has no way to deal with Lian Feng at this time, and can only use this method to ask for mercy from the opponent.

Howard got angry and said, "Don't be complacent!"

Lian Feng shook his head nonchalantly: "But it doesn't matter, I will fulfill your wish, and come to test by the way, whether you can do well in the low position."

Howard was stunned, and when he recovered, Lian Feng had already run away.

What does this guy mean?Is he ready to fight himself in the paint like a true center?He is absolutely insane.

……

The second half started soon.

Still a debut.

But at this time the Hornets lineup has undergone some changes.

Adelman's rotation idea is to let Beverly, Holiday and Curry rotate each other. When Holiday or Curry needs a rest, Beverly will come up to play point guard. Curry and Holiday are both combo guards, and they are still very strong in shooting guard ability.And when Curry and Beverley are on the court at the same time, Curry is still playing point guard.

Of course, Beverly spent more time resting below.But as long as Holiday or Curry rests off the court, he will definitely seize the opportunity to express himself as much as possible.

On the inside, Ibaka and David West can rotate with each other, basically there is no problem.

At this time, after playing for a while, the starting players of both sides went off to rest.Without Howard's Magic, it is even more difficult to limit the Hornets, both offensively and defensively, are completely suppressed.

When Howard and Lianfeng were off the court to rest, Adelman sent David West and Ibaka's double power forward formation, which suppressed the Magic's inside line.At the same time, relying on strong perimeter defense capabilities, one of the Magic's perimeter players was completely misfired.At the same time, Curry made frequent moves on the outside, using the three-pointers that the Magic are good at to continue to widen the gap.

Howard couldn't sit still off the court. After a timeout whistle, Howard entered the court.

But Lian Feng was still resting below.

Without the striker restriction, Howard immediately felt much more comfortable. There was no disgusting mid-range entanglement defense, and no embarrassing situation where he couldn't get a position in the low post. As soon as Howard came on the court, he made two dunks and grabbed an offensive rebound to catch up with 6 points.

So, Adelman also called a timeout, and Lian Feng played without any surprise.

In this attack, it was the turn of the Hornets again.

Lian Feng jokingly said to Howard: "This time I will fulfill your wish and beat you like a traditional center, how about it?"

Howard felt that Lian Feng was a bit stupid, and he was committing suicide by doing so. Of course he hoped that Lian Feng would do that, so he provocatively said: "Oh, stop talking big, if you play against me in the traditional center style, I will beat the shit out of you! But I believe you dare not do this, you definitely don't, you are a poor coward, a coward."

Lian Feng felt amused, at this time Howard's character was like a child, he must think his aggressive strategy was great.

"Then let's try it!"

On the first attack, Lian Feng made a pick-and-roll for Curry like a traditional center, and then quickly went down and cut in.Howard did not lose his position this time, and quickly caught up with Lian Feng, and the two moved to the penalty area one after the other.

Curry tugged inward to create the right space for Lian Feng, and then a ball was passed.

Lian Feng received the ball, suddenly changed his footsteps, and lifted the ball as fast as lightning.

Howard didn't have time to react, he jumped up reflexively, reaching out to block Lianfeng.

However, in the next moment, Howard's eyes were blank, and Lianfeng took the ball back mysteriously, and at the same time began to turn around.

Fake action!
Howard had just landed, and with his powerful jumping ability, he jumped up again, straightened his arms, and prepared to slap the ball and fly it out.

But at this moment, Lian Feng, who had already turned halfway, paused, turned around again very rhythmically, and easily completed the shot from the other side.

Howard had no way to react, and could only watch Lian Feng go up to the basket and score the ball.

Dream steps!

This set of movements is smooth and rhythmic. In Howard's own opinion, every time Lianfeng shakes his shoulders and raises the ball is full of deception. The body has no way to resist the conditioned reflex, and even before the brain has time to issue instructions, it has subconsciously taken off, so it is impossible to control being shaken away.

From the perspective of the outside world, Lian Feng seemed to perform a gorgeous waltz under the basket, which was as pleasing as a dance, and he easily scored the basketball.

Lian Feng spread his hands: "Look, even if you use the traditional center method, you still can't do it."

To be honest, Howard was a little envious of Lian Feng's gorgeous footsteps.But of course he couldn't show it, he just snorted coldly.

Next, Howard felt once again stuck in the quagmire.And this time compared to just now, that feeling was even more obvious... because, he couldn't grab a rebound!
Every time, Lian Feng seems to be able to predict that the basketball will miss, and he also knows where the missed basketball will fly.

Every time the basketball was still flying in the air, Lian Feng would turn around or fall down in other ways and get stuck at the landing point.

Lian Feng, who was stuck in his seat, had a lower center of gravity, and there was no way to squeeze him away.

It's hard to be stuck.Rebounding mainly depends on three points, height, position and prediction.

Among them, the blocking position is the more critical link. It is difficult for the player who is stuck in the position to take off with strength.Coupled with Lian Feng's own very scary bullet speed, there is basically no way to grab the rebound from his hands.

As a result, Howard's scoring once again stagnated.There are three main scoring methods for him, one is to rely on the strong outside line to clear a certain space in the penalty area, and then use a back turn card to finish the dunk directly in one step, one is to receive the inside ball from his teammates to complete the finish, and the other is to rely on his strong offensive rebounding ability to grab the offensive rebound and complete the second score.

However, because of the strong defensive ability of the Hornets, the first two roads have been almost blocked. At this time, Lian Feng was repeatedly frustrated by rebounding, so Howard really didn't know how to play for a while.

Lian Feng felt a little regretful, because he didn't even have time to show off his skyhook, so he turned the game into garbage time. In the fourth quarter, Lian Feng went off to rest.

In the end, the Hornets defeated the Magic with a score of 121 to 94.

Lian Feng easily scored 34 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals.

Howard, on the other hand, only scored 11 points, 6 rebounds, 1 block and 7 turnovers in the entire game.
