When Chen Feng caught the ball just now, two defensive players from the Lakers had already tightly double-teamed him. Although there was a pick-and-roll from his teammates, Kobe was always in a favorable defensive position. When Chen Feng took off,
, he accurately judged Chen Feng's shooting point, but Chen Feng's amazing shooting speed made his defense fail again.
This reminded Kobe of his original opponent, Ray Allen. That guy also shot so fast!
With this three-pointer, the Spurs finally tied the score.
The Spurs fans in front of the TV were immediately delighted. With the game looking hopeless, they suddenly recovered a 16-point deficit.
D'Antoni took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to bring Iguodala on, who had previously taken a break. In addition to providing offensive firepower to the team, Iguodala also had another task, which was to help defend Chen Feng.
Sufficient height and weight give Iguodala more options when defending Chen Feng.
At two minutes and thirty seconds, Nash, who was exhausted, made a pass error. The Spurs took the opportunity to play a beautiful fast break. Parker hit the basket and easily scored two points.
The Spurs finally overtook the score again, and the fans cheered.
As for Chen Feng, he has very little physical strength left.
However, he still tried his best to participate in the team's defense, and worked beautifully with his teammates to interrupt the Lakers' offense.
Duncan once again picked off the defensive rebound and handed it to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng slowly dribbled the ball and wandered outside the three-point line. Every nerve in his body was tense. He did not dare to be careless in the slightest.
When he walked outside the three-point line and faced the basket, Chen Feng stopped and threw the ball from Kobe's head to the basket with a push.
When people saw Tim Duncan and Derrick Favors who were still entangled by the desperate Kaman and Pau Gasol and couldn't let go, another thought came to their minds - this
Chen Feng made a mistake with one goal!?
Because Chen Feng has a big problem with his physical strength, it is not surprising that fans have such questions.
However, something happened that surprised everyone. A figure wearing a gray jersey suddenly rushed into the inside from the right baseline, and when the basketball was about to hit the backboard, he soared into the air in the penalty area with one arm in his right hand.
Caught the basketball and hit the ball towards the basket!
"Bang!" The ball was slammed into the basket. And people could see clearly who completed the alley-oop.
This person is known as Kawhi Leonard, one of the Spurs' new three cores!
When the fans at the Att Center Arena saw this scene, they all screamed with excitement.
Just now, they thought Chen Feng made a mistake due to physical problems. But what they didn't expect was that Chen Feng would actually send such a beautiful assist in this state and complete such a wonderful alley-oop with Leonard.
"Good job!" Even Vicky, who always had a cold face, shook her arms excitedly.
The alley-oop dunk between Leonard and Chen Feng is extremely important for the Spurs, because this goal can definitely boost the team's morale.
104:100. The Spurs now lead by 4 points.
Kobe broke through the baseline and passed the ball to Pau Gasol under the basket.
"Bang", Gasol hit Favors hard, made a feint, got past Derrick Favors' defense, and succeeded in the basket.
Chen Feng slowly advanced towards the frontcourt with the ball. His physical strength had been consumed a lot and he had to use some gaps to replenish it.
Parker came to the top of the arc to meet Chen Feng.
After Chen Feng passed the ball to Parker, the latter broke through with the ball.
Chen Feng, on the other hand, stood still and did not move. Now, he must replenish his strength to support the next two minutes.
The confrontation in the regular season is simply different from the confrontation in the playoffs, not to mention, this is the Western Conference semifinals.
Parker made several breakthroughs to no avail, so he passed the ball to Tim Duncan under the basket, a stable guy who didn't look like an old man.
Duncan beat Gasol forcefully, but Gasol was built like an octopus and his arms were too long. In addition, Duncan was older, so he did not choose to fight hard.
But for Duncan, as long as he can successfully maintain his position under the basket, there are too many scoring options! Tim Duncan turned around and made a hook, and the basketball cleared the board and went into the frame.
For the Lakers, Iguodala used a fake move from outside the three-point line to deceive Leonard's defense, and then made a jump shot.
With a "swish" sound, Iguodala made a crucial three-pointer for the Lakers.
This three-pointer acted as a shot in the arm, and Lakers coach D'Antoni clenched his fists in excitement.
With this three-pointer, the Lakers chased the score to 105:106 and are now only 1 point behind the Spurs.
**Vic asked for a timeout, preparing to rearrange tactics and adjust the lineup.
"In these two minutes, our defense was not very good. Kawhi, you have to be careful about your opponent's fake moves and don't jump easily. Tony, Steve's speed is not fast, you can follow with all your strength. Chen, follow the defense
When Kobe is playing, be careful of his sudden stop and fade. He is a master of fake moves. You have to distinguish whether he is shooting or passing. Tim, you defend Gasol with all your strength, and pass Chris to Jordan. Jordan, you can change it later.
Come on Derek." **Vicci said to Chen Feng and others with a serious look on his face.
After the timeout ended, warrior Jordan Hill replaced Derrick Favors.
When Tim Duncan defends Pau Gasol, his physical strength is a disadvantage. Gasol is not strong enough, so Duncan's defense should have good results.
Taking advantage of this pause, Chen Feng recovered some of his physical strength.
Chen Feng made a wonderful pass and the ball reached Leonard's hands.
After Leonard received the ball, he immediately adjusted his rhythm and then shot the three-pointer.
It was a bit difficult to score this goal, but it was scored in the end.
The score difference once again reached 4 points, and the home fans stood up excitedly.
This time it was Iguodala who was attacking with the ball. After listening to **Vic's words, Leonard was not fooled by Iguodala's fake move.
Iguodala used his strong body to push Leonard towards the basket step by step.
But in the process, Iguodala didn't notice that Chen Feng was approaching him.
Just when Iguodala had entered the penalty area and his face showed joy, Chen Feng had quick eyes and quick hands and took the ball out of Iguodala's hand without paying attention.
Iguodala tried to fight back, but the referee called a defensive foul.
Iguodala was a little unconvinced. He walked up to the referee and claimed that Chen Feng had hit his hand when he was grabbing the ball and it was already a foul.
But the referee did not change the penalty, which made Iguodala very angry.
Since the Lakers had already committed four fouls in the fourth quarter, with Iguodala's foul this time, Chen Feng went to the free throw line.
Chen Feng's free throws are his most stable scoring method, so teammates, coaches and fans are not too worried.
"Whoa", Chen Feng made his first free throw easily.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Feng prepared to take the second free throw.
To the surprise of most people, Chen Feng missed his second free throw.
There was a "clang" and the ball missed.
However, veteran Tim Duncan picked off the offensive rebound. Next to him, Iguodala tried to steal Shifo's ball, but was well protected by Duncan.
But Iguodala still patted Duncan's ball and even patted Duncan's hand.
The referee saw this and blew the whistle again.
Duncan is an old guy, and he usually doesn't talk much on the court! But just because he doesn't say it doesn't mean that others don't say it, such as the hot-tempered Chen Feng.
"Hey, man! Are you bullying the old guy?"
Iguodala didn't say anything here. Chen Feng's words were not unpleasant and were vaguely a reminder.
But Kobe is not a fuel saver!
The two of them were standing together, so they stood together like goring an ox.
At this time, the referees on the scene were overwhelmed. They couldn't afford to offend either of these two men! They could only try to pull them apart!
Then they gave Chen Feng and the others a technical foul!
In fact, the time when the conflict broke out was very good for Chen Feng, because Chen Feng could use this time to take a good rest.
With a few more technical foul free throws, Chen Feng can rest for a while.
The Lakers took the first free throw, and it was Kobe who took the technical foul free throw.
Chen Feng returned to the sidelines and sat down, then took a bottle of drink from the staff and took two sips.
"Seize this time and have a good rest." **Vicci said to Chen Feng with a smile.
Regarding the conflict just now, **Vicci did not blame several players. Because in such a fierce environment, the psychological pressure of the players is very high, and it is very normal for such a conflict to break out.
Moreover, the team's main shooting guard Chen Feng can use this nearly seven or eight minutes to rest, which is also very beneficial to the team.
The Lakers made all three technical foul free throws, and then Parker went to the free throw line.
Since **Vic wanted Chen Feng to rest for a while, he sent Parker to take free throws.
Parker also deliberately imposed penalties slowly to create more rest time for Chen Feng.
Before, most people found that Chen Feng consumed a lot of physical energy, and as a team member, Parker naturally found out too.
"Whoa", Parker's first technical foul free throw was made.
Parker also put the next two technical foul free throws firmly into the basket.
After making all three technical foul free throws, Tim Duncan came to the free throw line again.
Because of Iguodala's previous foul on the ball, Tim Duncan got two free throws.
Chen Feng and his team returned to the court, and Leonard and Jordan Hill took up positions under the basket, preparing to grab rebounds.
Chen Feng, on the other hand, stood in the midfield with Parker. (To be continued...)
