The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 504 [Play as soon as you leave the hospital]

Ariel was taken care of by a special person, Ye Feng left the hospital and went directly to the arena to report.That night was the Clippers' first playoff game against the Golden State Warriors.He has long agreed that he will not miss the playoffs and ensure victory at home.

People are guessing whether Ye Feng will be absent. If he doesn't play, the game will not be so exciting, and the Clippers may capsize in the gutter.

The morale of the Warriors is not weak. They are not willing to be eliminated by the Clippers easily, and they must win at least one game.The Warriors have good players in various positions, such as Stephen Curry and Jarrett Jack at No. 1.

Klay Thompson and Brandon Rush at No. 2 are both very good three-pointers.

DeMar DeRozan and Richard Jefferson at position 3, DeRozan has excellent physical fitness and strong impact, Jefferson has rich experience, and the two can form a good complement.

David Lee and Carl Landry at No. 4.David Lee is a consistent player with few injuries.Landry was lackluster in addition to his shooting percentage and offensive rebounds.However, as the main substitute to lead the second team to grab points, Landry is a very good candidate.

Center Andrew Bogut still averages more than 2 blocks per game. He defends well in the low post. If it weren't for injuries, he could even win double-doubles steadily. He is a weakened version of Duncan.

But the weakness of the Warriors is the inside line, and the substitute is quite cheating.Rookie Festus Ezeri's 3.6 points and 4.4 rebounds are already Bogut's best substitute.

Who has the worst contract in the NBA?The answer is Biedrins.During the labor negotiations last year, the NBA gave each team an amnesty to give up a bad contract.The Golden State Warriors decided to use this clause to cut Charlie Bell to save a few million dollars in space.But let Biedrins continue to display his "stealth" stunt with an annual salary of tens of millions.

There are a lot of overpaid, underpowered players in the league, but at least they can contribute.Biedrins averaged 15 minutes per game in the regular season, scored 1.4 points and 3.6 rebounds, and made 33.3% of his free throws.

What's maddening isn't just the burden Biedrins' contract has placed on the Warriors' payroll, it's the fact that the team hasn't done anything about what they should have been able to do with the amnesty clause.This is definitely one of the most puzzling mysteries in NBA history in recent years.
In the evening, there is a special appearance at the Staples Center.On the big screen of the stadium, there was a video shot in the hospital, showing Ye Feng and his newborn child together.Ye Feng told the camera that he would get the championship ring for this season for his child!This video is both heartwarming and uplifting.After the video was played, Ye Feng came out, and the fans stood up and applauded, congratulating him on becoming a father.

There is only one person in Los Angeles who can be blessed by so many people for having a child.

It's a game with no shortage of stars, and ESPN will cover it live. "Magic" Johnson said: "I heard that after the game, Ye Feng will rush back to the hospital to accompany his wife. It's really rare to see a star like him. I wonder how he's resting these days?"

Van Gundy said with a smile: "He must have no problem physically, but he may be more tired mentally, but he looks very excited."

Ye Feng's excitement can be seen by everyone. When arranging tactics, Thibodeau said: "Ye, don't attack this time. If you have a good chance, you can shoot again. Give Isiah (Thomas) a pick-and-roll at the top of the arc. If Passed out without a chance, hanging to the low post Paul (Gasol) to attack. Defensively man-to-man, Ye and Klay Thompson, his shot selection is not very good, he just shoots fast, and generally does not attack with the ball. "

Thibodeau arranged an easy task for Ye Feng.The starting lineup is Pau Gasol, Kevin Love, Harrison Barnes, Ye Feng and Thomas.

After Marcus Thornton came back, the Clippers had someone who could lead the offense in the second quarter, and Gasol returned to the starting lineup.If Ye Feng didn't attack, Thomas replaced Hinrich, he was more impactful.

The Warriors started five Tigers Bogut, David Lee, DeRozan, Thompson, Curry.

The referee threw the ball into the sky and the game started.Gasol beat Bogut with a jump ball, Harrison picked up the basketball and handed it to Thomas, and Ye Feng waited for Thomas to dribble past half court at the top of the arc and screened.

Thomas broke through from the right with the ball, and DeRozan switched defenses.Thomas passed the ball out to Harrison, and the latter handed it to Ye Feng, who ran to the right, and Curry was on defense after the dislocation.Following Thomas, DeRozan couldn't switch defenses quickly no matter how strong his athletic ability was, Ye Feng leaned on Curry with his back and walked the middle to a familiar position, turned around and hit a jumper. 2 to 0.

If the Warriors defend like this, it would be too easy for Ye Feng to fight. There is no need to pass to Gasol. Bogut's defense is outstanding, and Gasol will definitely have to spend some effort.

The Warriors attack, Curry takes it to the frontcourt and hands it to DeRozan, David Lee picks and rolls, DeRozan breaks through with the ball, makes an emergency stop and makes a jump shot, Gasol's defense is in place, relying on his height and arm length to interfere with the shot, the ball misses Out, the rebound was taken by Love.

Ye Feng and Harrison started to play quickly after DeRozan made a shot. Love grabbed the rebound and immediately passed it to Thomas.The latter threw the ball forward and passed it to Ye Feng.A dislocation formed on the court, and the man defending him was replaced by Klay Thompson, and DeRozan returned to the defense to catch up with Harrison.

This is forcing me to attack myself, Ye Feng thought.Although Thibodeau arranged for him to pass the ball to support the offense, the opportunity is too good for him now.As long as it is a single defense, he thinks it is a good opportunity to face anyone.He dribbled the ball under his crotch to open up space with Thompson, paused slightly, and then changed his speed and dribbled the ball to break through. Thompson moved a little slower, but Ye Feng seized the opportunity and brought him to the low post from the right side, making an emergency stop at 45 degrees and hitting the board. 4 to 0.

"Magic" Johnson said: "These two shots are too stable. If the Warriors can't defend Ye Feng, there is no chance of winning this game. Their single defense at the beginning is simply a big gift."

Van Gundy said: "DeRozan can't play much role. Ye Feng is not the kind of person who can defend alone. I don't know what arrangement Jackson will have."

Warriors coach Jackson is an old acquaintance of the two commentators, and he was still a commentator on ESPN before.

The Clippers have developed the habit of focusing on Ye Feng's main attack. If they pass the ball to teammates and watch from the sidelines, Ye Feng himself will feel a little awkward.He didn't know whether these two offenses were a violation of the coach's arrangement, so he looked at Thibodeau when he returned to defense.Thibodeau's mouth raised a wide arc with a smile, and if it feels good, he can shoot. There is no one on the court who can attack better than Ye Feng.

The Warriors finally scored in the next round. Curry used the screen to break through and hit Love in a dislocation single. 4 to 2.

This season, Curry averaged 18.2 points, 3.8 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game. His performance is very eye-catching. If the Warriors rank in the playoffs before the All-Star Game, Curry may also become an All-Star. His shooting is always very sure.

The Clippers attack, Ye Feng screens for Thomas, DeRozan switches defenses, Ye Feng and Gasol run to the right, Thomas passes the ball to Love on the left, Love passes to Ye Feng and Gasol He didn't grab the ball and pulled to the side to cover for Ye Feng. Ye Feng broke through from the right with the ball and met Bogut in a dislocation. He leaned on Bogut with his back at 45 degrees, swayed his right shoulder and pretended to go to the middle. Turning around, then turning in the opposite direction and protruding from the baseline, Bogut was completely swayed, Ye Feng jumped up to the basket, pulled the bar in the air, and dunked the basketball with a big windmill backhand with his right hand. 6 to 2.

David Lee went out to defend Love, and the inside line was empty, Ye Feng had the space to perform a dunk contest!The home atmosphere suddenly reached a small climax.

If the opponent doesn't double-team, it's fine for Ye Feng to keep attacking, the Warriors won't be able to defend at all.Bogut has been injured several times, his speed is not as fast as before, it is difficult to keep up with Ye Feng.

David Lee received a pass from Curry after the pick-and-roll, and broke through with the ball in the middle, causing a foul by Love's thug.David Lee made two free throws, 6-4.

In the next round, the Warriors began to double-team Ye Feng.One person blocks in the front, and one person goes around from the back, no matter whether it is a high position or a low position, they must put pressure on Ye Feng.Almost all teams in the league deal with Ye Feng like this, but he can still score a lot of points by relying on his pull-up jumpers and low turnaround jumpers after double pick-and-rolls.

This time, the Clippers players did not give Ye Feng a double pick-and-roll. Gasol was in the low post, and the other three opened up. Ye Feng lobbed the ball to Gasol, forming a triangle with the baseline Harrison .

The triangle offense is an easy tactic for stars to play.At this time, the Warriors can't double-team Gasol unless they defend Harrison, and Harrison is in the bottom corner, a position that is easy to attract defense.

Gasol played Bogut in singles, dribbled twice with his back, his left foot was the axis, his right foot took a small step towards the center, his right shoulder swayed slightly, and after attracting Bogut to move, he turned to the baseline and hit a jumper. 8 to 4.

The basic skills of European centers are very solid. Almost all of them turn around and jump shots. Among the foreign players in the NBA, Nowitzki and Gasol do the best.

The Warriors strengthened their defense. Ye Feng began to pass the ball actively. Love stopped pulling the ball outside. He also went to the low post to ask for the ball. Physique, but the actual height is only 206cm. David Lee is in the same situation as him, and he is also a short insider. Love does not suffer.Happiness received the ball twice and hit a hook in the middle. Ye Feng also received a pass from the right side of the perimeter and hit a three-pointer. The game lasted 5 and a half minutes. The Clippers led 16-8. The Warriors requested pause.

The Clippers' offense opened up in this game, and the Warriors must find a way to limit it.The Clippers' defense was also very successful, returning to defense quickly, and did not allow the Warriors to easily play fast breaks. As long as the Warriors' offensive and defensive conversion speed is reduced, their offensive efficiency can be reduced.Although the old Nelson is no longer coaching, the Warriors have retained the tradition of small ball.

Ye Feng scored 9 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists in less than half a quarter, and he is still the most eye-catching player on the field.

People wanted to see him score, but after the timeout ended, Thibodeau replaced him in advance...
