The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 371 [The way to defeat James]

As soon as Tony Allen came on the court, the Clippers' main attack point became Ye Feng, which was arranged by Thibodeau.If Mayo is on, the Clippers will also use a defensive lineup, and Ye Feng must find a way to get the ball into the basket.

In the first two games, the Clippers players were collectively in a slump. It is better to let the role players find the touch than directly let Ye Feng find the touch. Thibodeau believes that Ye Feng's performance can directly determine the outcome of the game.

In this series, Ye Feng's statistics have dropped significantly compared to before. The problem he faces is the same as that of James. With the opponent's tight defense, should he attack or pass?

He passed a lot of balls in the last two games and lost both.This time he will try to use his own strength to solve the problem.

As for what method to use to defeat James, it is up to Ye Feng to think for himself. No one on the team can give him advice. Even Tim Hardaway couldn't score 30+ points per game like Ye Feng when he was young.His scoring ability has been the best in the league, and he should have a way to score on anyone.

Of course, James is no ordinary person.Everyone knows that James is strong offensively. In fact, his defense is stronger. He has abnormal physical fitness and moves very fast laterally. It is difficult to pass him with the ball. Not many people in the league can do it, so James In order to be selected to the best defensive team for three consecutive years.

Ye Feng has been thinking about how to single-handedly attack James for a long time. Low-post offense is a solution, but it is very difficult to get the ball from low-post under James' defense, and he is prone to mistakes.Another method Ye Feng thought of was running without the ball!

Speaking of James' defense, it is strong in his defensive awareness and speed. He pursues steals and blocks, but he is not very good at tracking people without the ball.Ye Feng can catch the ball under his defense, but it is difficult to break through after receiving the ball, and his shooting will be interfered.If he relies on non-stop running to pull out space, even if he doesn't score, it can consume James' physical strength.

Love pulled to the perimeter, Ye Feng passed the ball into his hands, began to run without the ball, entered the three-point line from the right side, paused at the baseline and then circled out from the other side.The Heat have a mixed defense, James is responsible for defending Ye Feng and can only follow.

The two started a battle like "the eagle catches the chicken".Ye Feng ran, James chased.Love attracted Joel Anthony's defense on the outside, passed it to Tony Allen, who passed it to Smith, and Ye Feng ran towards Smith.

After Ye Feng made an emergency stop on the outside, he ran to the inside again, turned around and threw away James, he circled around, James followed and went to the outside, there was no guarantee that he would always be in front of Ye Feng.

Now the players on the Clippers field are not very capable of assisting, but it doesn't matter, Ye Feng is not waiting for the ball to pass to his hands, but actively looking for the ball.Smith shoved the ball into his hands. Ye Feng was already at his fastest speed when he got the ball. Even Wade couldn't change the defense in time. The new NBA rule allows you to take two more steps from receiving the ball to standing still. The step that came out allowed Ye Feng to get rid of it and sprint back. If Wade moved laterally to block his breakthrough route, he might cause a dribble charge, but if he had the consciousness to be killed by Ye Feng, he might be seriously injured even if he didn't die.

After Ye Feng took two big steps, he had already reached the basket, and jumped up with the ball in both hands, James chased from behind and jumped up to block the shot.

In the air, James bumped into Ye Feng, and the referee whistled.Even though he was as strong as Ye Feng, he was knocked and flew out obliquely. Seeing that he was about to go out of the baseline, Ye Feng scored with both hands. Relying on his excellent wingspan, he protruded from behind the backboard with his right hand and threw the ball with his low hand. He landed Unsteady, he fell down and bumped into a reporter who was taking pictures outside the bottom line, even the camera was knocked over, and the reporter suffered heavy losses.

After hitting the board, the ball bounced twice on the basket and scored. James also paid 2+1 for fouls.The fans in the audience suddenly became quiet. The Clippers performed very well in the opening game today.

Barkley exclaimed: "My God, this ball climbed into the basket like it had grown legs, so beautiful."

Smith was also surprised: "This is another unbelievable goal. Ye Feng used the most reasonable movements to throw the ball in the air. The camera showed James. He looked a little unbelievable."

On the ESPN side, "Magician" Johnson said: "Ye Feng often hits fancy goals to cause 2+1. What is impressive is that he used an exaggerated crotch goal to kill the Spurs. It is said that this is his signature score. , called the 'field', as long as it is at a distance he is familiar with, he may throw the ball in any way."

Van Gundy said: "This goal is very morale-boosting. The Clippers started the game against the guest. Ye Feng played a wonderful offense, and James hasn't scored a point yet."

Ye Feng stood up from the basket and moved his whole body to make sure he wasn't injured.Injury in the finals is the most depressing thing.

Ye Feng stood on the free throw line and made a steady hollow hit.Hit three points successfully! 14 to 4, the Clippers widened the point difference to 10 points.

Returning to defense, Ye Feng shouted: "Defense! Keep an eye on everyone!"

The Heat attacked, and Tony Allen kept up with Mayo. He started to press in the backcourt. He played less time before, and his energy was too strong, so there is no need to worry about running out of energy.

Mayo dribbled the ball across half court and handed it to James on the outside.James didn't stop after receiving the ball, and immediately turned to face the frame, wanting to break through, but Ye Feng didn't go forward to gamble and steal, and let him turn around.

James dribbled the ball from his crotch to his right hand and entered the three-point line from the right. He paused slightly, preparing to attract Ye Feng to grab the ball and then changed his direction. Ye Feng did not move forward, but jumped up on the spot. It looked like a fake move, James immediately changed to dribble and walked in the middle, Ye Feng exploded when he landed on one foot, caught up with James from the side, and entered the basket first.

James leaped high, wanting to perform a "Tomahawk" dunk with one hand, Ye Feng also jumped up with all his strength, the movements of the two were surprisingly consistent, they stretched out their left hands to press each other's body, James dunked with his right hand, Ye Feng Feng blocked the shot with his right hand.

The two almost collided with each other in the air. James has a maximum bench press of 190 kg, and Ye Feng also has a weight of about 180 kg. They are both people with super strong upper body strength. Take off, jump higher than James, and press the hand accurately on the basketball.

Ye Feng successfully destroyed the dunk, but was hit by James and flew out of the baseline again. James landed smoothly, but the ball was dropped and Smith picked it up. The two collided fiercely, and the referee was stunned. Yes, no whistle blowing.

Ye Feng was suspected of fouling, but two seconds later, the referee couldn't call the foul anymore and awarded a strike.Smith picked up the ball, the Clippers launched a fast break, Smith passed the ball to Tony. Allen, the latter's amazing speed, has been killed in front of the three-point line.

Tony Allen can't shoot three-pointers, and he hasn't practiced well after several years of practice. For him, the mid-range shot is a long-range shot, but he is not without offensive ability. Relying on his excellent physical fitness, he can make breakthroughs.

In the eyes of many people, Tony Allen will not attack. He is more likely to pass the ball, but Allen took the ball and swayed towards Smith's position. He deceived Mayo with a fake move and took the ball himself. The basket was made, and Mayo followed in the middle, but failed to block, and the ball scored again. 16 to 4.

Stand defensively and run offensively. This is the goal of the Clippers today.

In the first two games, they used too many positional battles on the offensive end and were blocked. Thibodeau learned a lesson and must increase their speed regardless of whether they have pitchers or not.On the defensive end, the Clippers continued their 32-zone defense.The only change is that McGee is responsible for guarding the perimeter, Smith defends the pick-and-roll, Bosh pulls to the high post, McGee follows out, and does not switch defenses.The reason why the Clippers let Smith start every game in the finals is to better defend against pick-and-rolls. The Heat are a team that is very good at pick-and-roll offenses.

James still had no chance to catch the ball in the frontcourt. After the pick-and-roll, he passed it to Bosh, who then passed it to Wade.The Clippers constantly change between the 32-zone defense and the 23-zone defense through rotations, with a tacit understanding.Wade failed to break through, and handed it over to James, who singled Smith and turned around for a jumper, and the ball finally scored!But this ball was not thrown in front of Ye Feng.Ye Feng still kept a "zero seal" against James. 16 to 6.

In the Heat's offense, Mayo didn't even touch the ball from the outside. Tony Allen's defensive skills were unquestionable. He kept pestering Mayo and engaged in physical confrontation. difficulty.

Ye Feng took possession of the ball again and passed it to Tony Allen. Mayo was much worse off the ball. Allen caught the ball easily. Feng started to run, reached the bottom line first, then turned around and circled around the bottom line.

If it is an attack with the ball, James will definitely be able to keep up with him. Now that Ye Feng does not hold the ball but only runs, James is a bit overwhelmed. He has to use his peripheral vision to observe the position of the basketball. A moment's distraction can give an opponent an opportunity to take advantage of.

Ye Feng finally bypassed James and entered the middle. McGee and Love had evacuated the inside line. Love took the ball at the top of the peripheral arc and passed it to Ye Feng.James quickly moved laterally in front of him.

After Ye Feng caught the ball with his back, his right foot was the axis, and he took a big step with his left foot and half-turned to the right. If he took a big step, he was about to "split". James was already a little slow, so he quickly moved his center of gravity to the left .

Ye Feng stepped back with his left foot, turned around and took a big step to the left, jumping up and shooting backwards.James was completely stunned, coupled with Ye Feng's sharp back, James jumped up to block the shot, even his eyes were not blocked.

After Ye Feng turned around, he happened to be at a 45-degree angle to the left, this position was the most accurate, and he made a steady shot. 18 to 6.

Ye Feng felt hot, and the Clippers led by 12 points.What excites him the most is not the score lead, but that he found a way to deal with James, that is to run, keep running!This is a very exhausting style of play, but in order to win, for the championship, he fought hard.
