Chen Feng was not in a hurry to break through. He stood outside the three-point line and controlled the ball in his hands rhythmically.
Taking advantage of the moment when Parsons' gaze shifted, Chen Feng changed his direction and easily broke through Parsons. After his first step of activation, Chen Feng was already calm. With his own speed, as long as he activated himself,
In such a short distance, no one in the alliance can catch up with him.
Chen Feng didn't panic at all when Howard was on defense. Although he was ready to take action just now, he didn't necessarily have to take action to score. What's more, he enjoyed the sense of achievement of passing the ball. He supported the ground with his right foot and quickly stayed in place.
Turning 180 degrees, he suddenly leaned into Howard's arms and pushed with both hands. The ball flew straight out of the paint and was handed to the unguarded hands of Ginobili on the right wing. The latter caught the ball and jumped.
When the knife comes down, the ball should go into the net.
Howard hit the board wide from the left wing, and Jones took the lead and put the ball into the basket.
Chen Feng hit a three-point shot from the top of the arc. Duncan was the first to make the shot. It was his wonderful pass after attracting the Rockets' defensive players, and the ball was handed over to the unguarded hands of Chen Feng.
Howard missed a strong attack under the basket. Derrick Favors' right elbow gently touched Jones' waist. The ball gently fell into his hands. A long pass was passed to Chen Feng, who had already been ambushing in the midfield.
Scored a layup.
The Rockets' offense is naturally directed at James Harden!
James Harden faced Leonard's defense and directly hit a three-pointer.
"As expected of the boss of the Rockets, he was able to hit this three-pointer even with Leonard's frontal defense." Chen Feng was also a little impressed. This bearded man is not really a fake All-Star.
Here, Favors received a pass from his teammate and dunked. He also caused a foul from Howard and successfully scored 2+1.
In this game, the Spurs had good luck. This was the fourth time the team successfully scored 2+1.
Jeremy Lin made a passing error and Derrick Favors intercepted the ball easily. He made a long pass across the entire court and assisted Ginobili for a layup. The Spurs widened the point difference to two for the first time in this game.
digits or more.
Taking advantage of a dead ball opportunity, Beverley was sent on again. **Vicci also took the opportunity to substitute Chen Feng. Such a fast-paced game consumed Chen Feng's physical strength very quickly. For the next game, he was temporarily allowed to play.
There was a break for a few minutes.
**Vicci has been focusing on the Rockets' physical problem. In his opinion, in the last quarter of the game, the Rockets showed that they were tired. Let Chen Feng, who has recovered his physical strength, come on the court, and they will naturally win the game like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
However, in the three minutes after Chen Feng came off the court, the Spurs were in crisis.
Led by Rockets star James Harden, the Rockets launched an 11-2 attack wave, reducing the Spurs' 11-point advantage to just 2 points. In these three minutes,
James Harden scored 7 points alone, showing the value of a core player.
**Vicci couldn't sit still and quickly called a timeout. At this time, there were still two minutes and eleven seconds left before the end of the third quarter.
After the timeout, Chen Feng appeared again.
This is the playoffs, and **Vicci doesn't want to take risks. Although for Chen Feng, physical strength is a test, but after seeing Chen Feng's affirmative look, **Vicchi can only put Chen Feng on the court again.
.
Slowly dribbling the ball towards the half-court, Chen Feng's heart was filled with ups and downs.
Looking at Beverly a few steps away in front of him, Chen Feng felt a hundred times more confident.
He has always been deeply afraid of Beverley's speed. However, his defense is not very strong. He relies entirely on his courage and body to defend. Chen Feng thinks that he can break through beautifully.
But things are far from that simple. In a team like the Rockets that focuses on offense rather than defense, apart from Beverley, there will naturally be remedial measures.
At this time, Beverly did not dare to slack off.
Chen Feng dribbles the ball very slowly, but it gives people a very stable feeling.
The Rockets players did not steal the ball rashly. With Chen Feng’s expression, one can easily imagine his chances of being careless. In the hands of an excellent ball handler like Chen Feng, unless he breaks through at the slightest moment, the defense in his hands will not show up.
Only the slightest loophole can lead to the ball being intercepted by the opponent.
As the two of them got closer, Beverly felt the determination in Chen Feng's eyes more and more. She squatted down slightly and spread her arms slightly.
I secretly made a decision in my heart that I would stop this ball no matter what. Even if I couldn't completely stop it, I would still buy time for my teammates to make up defense.
He is almost certain that Chen Feng will not choose to pass the ball. Although this style of play is quite contrary to Chen Feng's personality, under special circumstances, even Beverley, who takes defense as his first choice, can deal with it specially.
I don’t think there is anything wrong with Chen Feng’s singles at this time.
He slapped the ball hard twice, all the muscles in his body tensed instantly, his sharp eyes tightened instantly, and his indomitable momentum was reflected from his body.
When Chen Feng broke through from Beverly, his sharp reflexes allowed him to react immediately, but his hands and feet were always a step too late to react. Only then did he realize that his palms were covered in sweat.
Chen Feng hit a pull-up jumper, but Howard, who was on defense, was always a step slower.
But this can't be blamed on him. He never thought that Beverley would be broken through so easily. You must know that this guy can tangle with Westbrook, although most of his fights with Westbrook were blown up.
**Vicci finally sat back in his seat. His butt had never touched the seat in just half an hour. The moment the ball went into the basket, he saw the renewed fighting spirit among the Spurs players.
How can the lost morale be regained anytime soon? The Rockets' tactics are still a bit difficult for the Spurs to cope with.
Fortunately, Chen Feng's appearance greatly reduced the pressure on Derrick Favors in the paint. Two singles at critical moments expanded the score to more than 5 points and did not allow the Rockets to continue to narrow the score.
**Vic is quite satisfied with the current situation on the court. Although the other players have not scored yet, they are gradually returning to normal defensively. The Rockets' offense has been going smoothly so far, but it is far from as relaxed as before.
Jones moved to the outside to block the ball, and Beverley slipped and ran to the baseline. He adjusted his posture and tried to make his hand feel as soft as possible, and he hit the ball with a beautiful shooting posture.
The ball drew a wonderful arc in the air, and Beverley clenched his right fist tightly. Many fans in the Toyota Center screamed.
"Clang", the ball that Beverley was sure of unexpectedly missed, and Beverley's clenched hands unknowingly relaxed.
Derek Favors easily picked up the rebound, threw the ball to Chen Feng, and immediately ran to the front court. At this point in the game, Derek Favors felt quite aggrieved, watching
The little Rockets players were making layups one by one under their noses, but they were blocked by Howard. They watched the Spurs' penalty area being ravaged by the opponent at will.
This is something Favors doesn't want to see, but if there is anyone in the league who can surpass him in terms of strength, then it is Howard.
Chen Feng moved so fast that even the Spurs and Rockets players couldn't keep up with him. Even Beverley was left a few steps behind.
The only threat to him was Jones, who was staying in the midfield. When Beverley took the shot, he had quickly returned to defend. In his opinion, it was unlikely that Beverley would miss such a ball.
Unexpectedly, this would turn out to be a mistake.
Now Chen Feng's situation is very embarrassing. Jones is watching eagerly in front of him, and Beverley and other Rockets players are following behind. If he is not careful, he will be trapped in a situation where he is attacked from both sides, and the Spurs teammates closest to him are also there.
Beverly was several meters behind him, so he had to rely on himself.
Playing positional battles is not Jones' strong point. In fact, with his size, small forward is the most suitable position for him. Fortunately, his extraordinary wingspan gives him more choices in defense.
For a tough player like Derrick Favors, his defense does not show much power in the confrontation, but when facing those outside players, especially those who run into the basket, his explosive power is like a knife hanging over their heads.
The sword on.
At the three-point line and the free throw line, Chen Feng's figure is getting closer and closer, and Jones's spirit is also highly concentrated.
Since entering the NBA, he has learned one thing, which is that no matter what kind of opponent he faces, he needs to go all out on defense.
No one who can enter the NBA is mediocre. They all have their own special skills. In many classic games, the outcome is often determined by the inconspicuous ones. What's more, players like Chen Feng are definitely capable of creating miracles on the court.
.
Unexpectedly, Chen Feng stopped at the free throw line. Jones was anxious and did this again, making a sudden stop jumper.
Many people in the league are good at this, but few are really good at it. Pull-up jump shots require very high demands on players, as well as physical coordination and feel. However, the person in front of me seems to be very good at it.
In the previous games, Chen Feng repeatedly performed pull-up jump shots after breakthroughs, which made the Rockets defensive players almost go crazy.
After all, Jones' reaction was faster than anyone else's. He jumped quickly and completely blocked Chen Feng's shooting position. He was confident that as long as Chen Feng dared to take action, he could definitely give him a big hit.
Jones' defense this time was indeed good. He reacted so quickly, which is indeed a quality that a defensive player should have. However, his defensive actions were extremely unwise in this situation. At this time,
The inside line is empty, and Spurs players can rush in and score at any time.
Smiling slightly, Chen Feng restrained his body in time. (To be continued...)
