The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 530 [Break the boat, fight hard to attack! 】

Losing the first game is not a good sign.The Clippers' offense was a little messy. Except for Ye Feng, everyone else played badly. Four of them scored in double figures.Ye Feng scored 34 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 1 block. Paul Gasol scored 14 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists. Marc Gasol scored 13 points and 10 rebounds. Thornton scored 12 points.

热火一边同样四人得分上双。詹姆斯29分8篮板7助攻3抢断不比叶锋逊色。韦德20分4篮板5助攻；波什16分8篮板；雷阿伦也有14分入账。还有拉沙德.刘易斯，他虽然上场时间有限，但进攻效率不低，三分球命中率有41.8%，本场只投了6次篮，命中了三记三分球，得到了9分。

Thibodeau admitted after the game that the tactics were improperly arranged and was suppressed by the Heat. He will find a way to fight the enemy in the next game.

Ye Feng rarely expressed his dissatisfaction with his teammates. "Our defense was terrible in this game, allowing the opponent to do whatever they want. We used to average 120 points per game and win the game with points. It didn't matter if our defense was poor, but now we don't have such a strong offense. In order to win, we have to play Bloody! I can accept losing, but I must do my best."

It is very difficult for Ye Feng alone to deal with the Big Three of the Heat, unless he can beat James, it will be very difficult. Now James' psychological problems are not as serious as last time in the finals.

Ye Feng is very sure that if he wants to defeat the Heat and successfully defend his title, relying solely on his personal ability is not enough. His teammates must stand up and support him, especially the performance of the Gasol brothers is crucial.In his previous life, both of them had been selected to the All-Stars, but they felt that they could not exert their full strength in the Clippers.

The next day the news media gave an evaluation, thinking that if the Clippers do not make adjustments, it will be difficult to defeat the Heat to defend their title. ESPN experts believe that the Clippers should focus their offense on the low post. The Heat's inside defense is not as strong as the outside, and the Clippers' defense must be strengthened, otherwise they will lose.To the bystanders, these words make sense.

The Clippers did not have a holiday, and Thibodeau called the players to study the video of the game to find the reason for the failure.Seeing the messy offense and running positions, the role players were a little embarrassed.

Thibodeau looked serious, and said loudly: "Have you seen the problem clearly? It's not that we are incapable of winning, but we can't grasp the opportunities, and we haven't played our own characteristics. The pick-and-roll inside is too slow, and everyone must concentrate on defense. And when you follow, keep a distance, don't just get close, James and Wade are good at drawing fouls!"

Pick-and-roll defense is a technical job, and if you follow it quickly, you will be easily fouled. Ye Feng is a player who is good at drawing fouls. He only needs a small change of direction, and half of his body collides with the opponent, or he stops suddenly and sways, and puts the opponent away. Point up and take off again, most of the referees will call a defensive foul.If the block is slow, the opponent may directly take the ball and make a three-step breakthrough, especially if people like James and Wade charge up, Ye Feng will not be able to guard against it.

Thibodeau talked about the tactics, and the assistant coach Mahon came out to train the inside players one by one. When he first arrived in the Clippers, he trained Love, Gortat, and McGee like foul machines. The skills are not so good, and the defensive experience is not enough. To be able to fight against other teams inside depends on hard work.Now the Clippers have won three championships and established a "dynasty", but they have lost the momentum of guarding the basket and dunking to death.Pau Gasol is really a little soft in this regard, and Perry Jones is not qualified.When playing the Mavericks, Jones was a mixed starter, but now he has to be replaced again in order to defend James.

The Clippers can't afford to lose again.Everyone knows this. If they lose again, they will probably end up with the Nets.Now some fans believe that the Heat have the possibility of sweeping the championship.

Of course Ye Feng didn't believe it.Sweep?Dreaming!The Clippers have a role player who does not perform properly and does not score. Why is this not the case for the Heat? If the Big Three can guarantee their shooting percentage every game, they must rank in the top five in the league in scoring in the regular season. In fact, the Heat are only good at scoring 5 points. people.

The Clippers made adjustments to their offense. Thibodeau asked the Gasol brothers to stay inside and stop pulling out to cover. Ye Feng played singles on the outside, or gave Thornton a cover. Thornton is an important scoring point on the outside and can help Ye Feng share the pressure. .His main role is to attract James' defense after the pick-and-roll. If James switches defenses, Ye Feng has a physical advantage against Wade and Ray Allen.If the Gasol brothers have a clear advantage in the low post, pass the ball in and play.

In order to ensure his touch, Ye Feng practiced shooting more. The Heat's defense was aimed at him entering the paint, and they had to rely on shooting to solve the problem on the outside.As long as he can hit the jumper, even James can't do anything about him.

On June 6, the two sides launched a second contest.In the arena, the Clippers fans uniformed their attire, and a large number of stars came to cheer.

The Clippers have at least 50 times as many fans as the Heat.If the Clippers can win the championship for the fourth time, it can be said to be a perfect season. Let the Big Three of the Heat win the championship, it is more like a villain who has finally bought the championship with money.Not only the Big Three, but even Ray Allen is disgusted by many people. The main reason is that he joined the Celtics mortal enemy after leaving the Celtics.In China, his nickname was originally "Junzijian", but now it has directly become "Yue Buqun", because he is more like the Junzijian in Swordsman.

Players entered the court, and the Heat received even more boos than in the previous game. From this, we can see how much people want the Clippers to win the championship.This kind of home atmosphere makes the Heat players feel envious. Miami can't even match half of it here. The fans just sit in their seats and watch the game honestly.

The commentators of the major media also analyzed that the Clippers couldn't afford to lose this game, and they didn't know what adjustments they would make.

Thibodeau will definitely not use the lineup of the last game. The defensive loopholes are too large. Only the first save and the Heat are in a stalemate. On the premise that Ye Feng feels good, the main reason for their loss is mobility and pick-and-roll defense. Jones's speed It's not slow, but no matter whether you face Wade or James, you can only be ravaged, so this time the Clippers have to take a risk.

In the opening lineup, Ye Feng played the 4th position, mainly defending the pick-and-roll, and paying attention to the low-post assist defense.Gasol is the center forward. He is physically stronger and better at resisting people, and his ability to attack in the low post is not bad.The third position is Matt Barnes, facing James, this is a very different matchup, he will adopt Battier's defensive method, force James to try his best to make jump shots from the outside, break through and have Ye Feng defend . The No. 2 position is Harrison Barnes. He is mainly responsible for outside shooting. Of course, there is a gap against Wade.But he had been singled out with Ye Feng for a whole season during training, and he had gained a lot of experience. At least he wouldn't be afraid to meet Wade. Isiah Thomas started at No. 1. This is the biggest defensive loophole for the Clippers, and Chalmers will not be the core of the offense.If it's a pick-and-roll misalignment inside and a big gamble on mid- and long-range shots, the Clippers will recognize it.

The Heat did not adjust the lineup, it is still Dalembert, Bosh, James, Wade, and Chalmers.

Gasol beat Bosh on the jump ball and the Clippers went first.Spoelstra looked at the Clippers' lineup and admired Thibodeau.It is a very bold approach to start with Thomas, and only Thibodeau's active and eclectic coach dares to arrange this in the league.On Hinrich, the misplacement can't prevent Bosh and James, so it's better to put on Thomas and fight directly to attack.The second team allows Hinrich and Thornton to cooperate, and can also share Thornton's defensive pressure, killing two birds with one stone.

Ye Feng was not in a hurry to catch the ball and attack, and set a cover for Thomas.Whether or not to switch defenses is enough for James to have a headache.The Heat have thoroughly studied the Clippers players and know the characteristics of Thomas, so James switched defenses, and Ye Feng ran to the other side to open up the space. Thomas passed the outside line to Barnes, and Barnes passed to Barnes. After leaving Ye Feng, under the dislocation, the defender became Chalmers.

Wade immediately let go of Barnes to double-team, he and Chalmers were not tall, Ye Feng faced the defense, caught the ball at 60 degrees on the right side and pulled out his hand, neither of them blocked , hit a three-pointer! 3 to 0.

What Ye Feng has improved the most this season is his three-pointers, which are getting more and more accurate.He used to be able to guarantee a hit rate of around 4%, but that was on the premise of taking fewer shots, but now he is shooting more and more.There were several times when he hit 5 or more [-]-pointers in a game.Once he hits the perimeter, the Heat are in trouble.

As the Heat attacked, Ye Feng moved into the low post to defend Bosh. This was not an easy job. He was much shorter than Bosh, but he could hold Bosh out of the penalty area with his outstanding strength.Outside pick-and-roll cooperation is usually completed by Bosh. He has a stable mid-range shooting ability. Let Dalembert cover, but he is not sure about outside shots. His mid-range shooting ability is not as good as Dwight Howard. The Clippers can directly put two-step defense.

No matter how good the defense is, it's a tragedy for a center forward, at least he can't become a superstar who dominates the game. Howard is an example. If it wasn't for Bynum's frequent injuries and a problematic defensive attitude, his position as the number one center forward might not be enough. people.

Bosh pulled to the outside to cover for Chalmers, who broke through with the ball, Ye Feng followed immediately, and Chalmers passed the ball to Bosh.Thomas tried his best to go around the front, but he had no choice but to lob the ball. After Bosh caught the ball, he immediately got close to him, hoping to interfere with the opponent's shooting rhythm.

Bosh was unmoved, and directly pulled out and shot the basketball! 3 to 2.If Bosh's shooting was so easy to defend, he wouldn't be selected as an All-Star every year, and Bosh would be among the best in terms of shooting accuracy among inside stars.

The Clippers players did not feel depressed because of this goal. It was already expected. In the last game, Bosh made many mid-range shots.No matter how effective Thomas' defense is, this game will be about offense.
