592. This feels bad
The sideline ball was sent out, and Fenson took a furious action after getting the ball, and the color "in your face" missed a three-pointer!
Horford took the defensive rebound strongly, counterattacked to the frontcourt, and then passed to Irving at the top of the arc. It was him again. Now as long as Irving gets the ball, the entire Staples fans will fall into tension.
Lin Feng and Irving were always at a distance from each other. He knew that he could not resist the breakthrough and could only do his best to prevent Irving from entering the three-second zone.
After one month, the two confronted each other again on the 11th, which excited fans of the two cities.
"Defense! Defense! Defense!"
The cheers from the center of Staples were similar to the booings heard in the North Shore Garden.
Irving protected the ball on his chest, bent his body slightly, and made a look that he wanted to start at any time. Lin Feng took a small step forward, always holding his left hand high.
There was no chance, Irving suddenly smashed the ball to Tatum who was walking down the middle!
The latter had a physical confrontation with Kuzma and jumped high, twisted his waist and sent a shot.
While the hollow entered the net, the referee whistle sounded, Kuzma blocked the foul, and Tatum added a penalty!
Ku Shao looked innocent, but he knew that the result could not be changed, so he could only stand on the sidelines with annoyance and shake his head.
Seven minutes into the first quarter, Walton replaced McGee with Howard and continued to strengthen the defense at the basket.
Fortunately, he missed the free throw, and the Celtics did not continue to widen the gap. So far, Lin Feng has not scored except for making a wonderful dunk after making a play. The opponent's defense tonight is very targeted. They will not allow the Lakers players to easily get the ball, but are more isolated players.
James took the defensive rebound that missed the free throw and organized the offense through half the game.
Pope, who was assigned to the bottom corner, Xing Mamba pretended to shoot and then drifted past Morris, and quickly slipped through the baseline with the ball!
When he encountered Horford's iron wall at the basket, Pope had no chance to attack the basket and threw the ball to Lin Feng at the top of the arc.
This was the first time he got the ball at this position tonight, and Smart, who was defending him, took a small step back and obviously let him shoot a three-pointer.
Then Lin Feng naturally raised his sword and sent the ball into the net!
Smart looked up at the basketball passing by in the air, and the expression on his face seemed to regret that Lin Feng made such an easy shot. Stevens on the sidelines quickly shouted, don't let go! Don't let go!
In the previous match against the Bucks, Lin Feng had a 4-for-foot shot for a while, and continued that feeling tonight.
What's strange is that the sixth sense didn't make him shoot at this position very clearly, but it didn't seem to be rejected, completely free fire mode.
The difference in points returned to within ten, and Lin Feng scored five points after making the appearance, which made the 20,000 fans in the Staples Center happy because someone finally stood up and would not be beaten in the first quarter.
Irving continued to lead the offense, and his personal show continued to be staged. This time he chose to break through strongly. He fought 1-for-2 at the basket, and relied on his core strength to find a layup gap and sent the ball into the net with one hand!
Lin Feng is one of the players involved in the defense. To be honest, he really tried his best to jump, but he couldn't stop the guy named Kyrie Irving.
Convert fast break, Pope didn't have three-pointers!
After Irving took the rebound, the quarterback passed the quarterback to Morris who did not return to defense. Facing Kong Lan, Mo Xiao ended the attack with a violent basket.
10-22.
Walton pinched his chin with one hand. He sent Lin Feng too early but did not work, but instead allowed the opponent to widen the gap further.
It is obvious that Celtics coach Stevens has thoroughly studied his tactical play, and James has not yet found his feelings, so the Lakers have completely fallen into a passive position.
Fans far away in Boston were in a state of excitement. Their team had a defeat to Los Angeles a month ago, and now they saw the dawn of the team regaining their faces at Staples.
On the way back to defense, Morris looked at Fenson provocatively, but fortunately Fenson controlled his mouth.
The Lakers were forced to a dead end again, and the opponent was full of energy tonight under the leadership of Irving.
At critical moments, someone must stand up. Lin Feng understands that he will play early, and Walton just hopes that he can take over the offensive power.
James missed a low post and a high difficulty jump shot, which made the whole game feel regretful.
Just as everyone was about to go back to halftime to defend, Lin Feng suddenly came out of the basket and grabbed the offensive rebound with amazing bounce!
Horford, who had a better position, was caught off guard, but he was not surprised that such a thing happened in the game a month ago.
After getting the rebound, Lin Feng immediately encountered a double team. The strong Morris couldn't move with his body.
Pope immediately went to the bottom corner and made a catch gesture, which made Morris subconsciously expand outward, trying to double-team Lin Feng while blocking the pass route.
But it was this small step that allowed Lin Feng to seize the opportunity to get out of the gap and score the ball with his backhand!
The difficulty coefficient is 9.99, and Morris is very upset about it. It is precisely because of his wrong movement that he "let the tiger back to the mountain".
Lin Feng, who got the score, also gave Xiao Mo a thumbs up.
Irving signaled everyone not to take it seriously, after all, they are still ten ahead of the market.
Slowed down, Boston's team began to play success rate. The Lakers seemed very passive, and defense was not the team's strength. Once the offense was not open, it was easy to fall behind.
Stevens took the initiative to call for a timeout, but he didn't know what it was. He called a timeout when he was leading ten. Perhaps it was because the Celtics coach thought that he was not doing well enough at Lin Feng and needed to reassign defensive tasks to the players.
This gave the Lakers a chance to breathe. After Lin Feng came on the bench, he scored 7 points out of 12 points, making him the best player on the court. Walton continued to play this as a breakthrough.
"Gary, they will inevitably make you feel uncomfortable. Others try not to give their opponents the chance to double-team Gary, and they can pull more easily!"
Walton shouted loudly about his tactical ideas, and Lin Feng's expression was very serious.
After the timeout, Irving continued his own single attack. It seemed that Stevens had put a lot of bets on his core players.
Lin Feng defended one-on-one, and the two did not communicate.
The familiarity between each other even allowed him to predict Irving's next move, break through or pass the ball!
At the duel at the top of the arc, everyone's hearts were raised to their throats.
Irving gave up his singles and passed it to Morris who pulled out, who shot a good three-pointer, but missed his first attempt tonight.
Howard staggered at the basket and gave up his position, and the rebound was caught by Horford!
Howard shouted "Foof! Foul!"
But the Celtics' offense continued over there, and the ball came to Irving's hands. He did not hesitate and directly rushed to the basket along the middle.
Lin Feng, who was closely guarded, fell to the ground in response!
BiBi! Irving offensive foul.
Morris rushed forward to appeal to the referee, believing that their team leader had been violated.
In fact, Lin Feng lost his balance in this ball, and the speed was too fast and he had physical confrontation with Irving. These reasons combined cause the fall.
The referee missed a foul on Horford's rebounding foul, and this time he took the opportunity to look back.
In this way, the Lakers got the ball.
Chapter completed!
