Versatile Point Forward

Chapter 217 Home Victory
It seems that McMillan's slap in the face is still very effective. During the pre-match training, everyone was in a good state and their enthusiasm was quite high.And Ye Feng also paid special attention to it, his teammates seemed to feel pretty good, it seemed that this match should be easier for him.

It's not that he doesn't like to score more points, but his personality determines that he prefers to give credit to others. If he had to choose between scoring and assists, he would choose assists.This has nothing to do with Ye Feng being Chinese. He is actually a player who likes to be lazy. Of course, the so-called lazy does not mean that he is not serious or even unwilling to take responsibility during training and games, but that he likes to use the most labor-saving way. Help the team win the game, so that at least a few more minutes can be played on the court.Ye Feng thinks he is not a muscular devil, and if he wants to make more contributions, he can only focus on guiding his teammates to attack.

But this does not mean that he will give up shooting completely. After all, the team is in a bad situation now, and he is the team's strongest and most stable scoring point.If even he feels cold, we can only pray that others will perform well.Ye Feng is not a person who is easily nervous. He is a big-time player by nature. The more people there are and the more important the game is, the more excited he will be, and he will perform better.If his teammates can't open up the situation, he must stand up and score without hesitation. This is his responsibility when Roy is absent, and he cannot give up his responsibility lightly.

After the game officially started, Ye Feng did what he wanted to do before, that is to guide his teammates to attack.Although Aldridge didn't feel good and hit all three shots, the Blazers still had two scoring points, Miller and Fernandez.Ye Feng's routine is very simple. Call Aldridge to come up to pick and roll, and then rush to the inside with the ball. If Stoudemire defends, pass the ball to Camby under the basket for a dunk. The ball is given beyond the three-point line, and if no one cares, he will score in the middle distance.Of course, the Suns will not leave him alone. Ye Feng’s performance in the last game has already left a deep impression on the Suns players, so he has entered the list that Gentry focuses on. Weak, so before the game, Gentry asked that if Ye Feng breaks through, outside players should go in to help defend, and Stoudemire should just guard the basket, so as to ensure the team's defensive rebounds.

However, there are gains and losses on the basketball court. Outside players assisting Ye Feng means that there will be gaps outside the three-point line, and Aldridge will always be very smart to continue cruising in the high position, ready to give others As a cover, anyway, he knows that his hand feeling is not very good today, and it is also a good thing to be able to help his teammates.Miller and Fernandez didn't waste Ye Feng's pass. They teamed up and hit 5 three-pointers in a single quarter. If Richardson of the Suns hadn't shown off again and scored 12 points in a single quarter, the Suns might have given them the first quarter. Digging a huge hole by themselves, although it cannot be said that they will lose the game because of this, but at least filling the hole is a very troublesome thing, and it will also affect morale to some extent.

When the rotation lineup was contested, Bayless became the most dazzling person in the audience.This student of Ye Feng's same level has already found his place in the Trail Blazers. Although he is only 1.91 meters tall, he plays as a combo guard, and most of the time he is the team's second position.Although the height is not dominant, Bayless is already very hot in terms of speed and shooting, and Batum is also very relieved to hand the ball into his hands repeatedly.Coupled with the old and strong Uncle Huo on the inside, the Blazers' offense has not stopped.On the contrary, the Suns encountered the dilemma of feeling cold. Frye and Barbosa, the two most important substitutes, directly misfired. Fortunately, Barbosa can use his own speed to fight back, while Frye can only use Go inside to grab a rebound.

I have to say that Richardson's performance shocked everyone. Originally, everyone's attention was on Nash and Stoudemire. They did perform well, but who is the Suns in this series? The strongest scoring point in the game so far must be Richardson.Because the height is not dominant, Fernandez can't switch defenses with Ye Feng to defend Hill, but he can't defend Richardson alone.And he can't ask Miller to double-team Richardson with himself. Strictly speaking, Nash's threat is much greater than Richardson. Shorting Nash means emptying the entire offensive system of the Suns. No one would do this matter.

As soon as Richardson soared, the Blazers' scoring points were not enough. Ye Feng immediately let Miller take over the team's organization, suppressed the rhythm, and started the scoring mode himself.To deal with a team like the Suns, you can't follow their rhythm, because they have a lot of experience in fast offense, and Miller can suppress the rhythm if he organizes the offense. As an old ball ruffian, he knows when to do it whats the matter.Ye Feng's touch was very hot, and he hit two three-pointers to open up the point difference. Hill couldn't prevent his attack at all, so he could only do his best to attack and counterattack.

But Ye Feng was still suffocating in his heart. The disastrous defeat in the last game made him brood over his performance. He wished to score [-] or [-] points to help the team win. How could he not seize the opportunity to fire now? ?The Suns themselves are not a strong defensive team. Ye Feng scored consecutive points from inside and outside shots, and Richardson couldn't keep up with his scoring speed and efficiency.Although Miller has been trying to control the rhythm, as long as the ball is in Ye Feng's hands, he can quickly solve the battle, whether it is facing Stoudemire's breakthrough layup or outside shooting three-pointers under Hill's defense. He performed with ease when distributing the ball, and the fire in his heart gradually vented.

Driven by Ye Feng, the Trail Blazers united as one, widening the point difference to double digits at the end of halftime, and further widening the point difference to as much as 25 points at the end of the third quarter. It is a replica of the previous game, the only difference is that the leading and trailing sides have changed positions.Richardson was really easy to use. His 42 points and 8 rebounds once again made him the highest scoring player in the game, but Ye Feng scored a quasi-triple double of 39 points, 12 rebounds and 7 assists. He led the team to score in double figures with six players, dwarfing Nash's 13 points and 10 assists and Stoudemire's 20 points and 8 rebounds.

The Blazers finally kept their first home game, 108 to 90, a 18-point victory finally washed away their previous shame.
