Chapter 386 Second East(1/3)

Since Wu Feng's comeback, the Atlanta Hawks have found their form again and their record is getting better and better. This state even made the Miami Heat, which has the "Big Three", uneasy because their first position is a bit unstable.

As the regular season entered the final month of the season, in April, the Atlanta Hawks had already won two and a half games ahead of the third-place Chicago Bulls, and the second position was slightly more stable.

However, the Heat have also had a very good record in the past two months, so the Hawks have been unable to pull the Heat off the horse and take the top spot in the Eastern Conference.

The Hawks are currently three wins behind the Heat. Although there is not much hope of overtaking, there are still some.

Generally speaking, the regular season of each season ends in mid-April, but due to the suspension, the regular season starts later, so it ends a little later.

The end date of the regular season of this season is April 30, which means that each team has only one month left for the regular season, with almost fourteen or five games.

Nine of the thirteen games in April were home games, and many of the opponents were not very strong, so they still had hope of overtaking the Miami people.

On April 1, the Hawks ushered in their first game in April at their home court.

The opponents in this game are quite strong because the team has an active power forward who can reach the top five - Dirk Nowitzki and a playback who can reach the top three in the past fifteen years - Jason Kidd.

The Mavericks led by these two are not easy to play for the Hawks.

However, these two legendary stars have one weakness. That is, they are too old and their condition is much worse than before, especially Jason Kidd.

…………

"Wow..." The fans in the Phillips Arena screamed excitedly.

At this moment, the game between the Eagles and the Mavericks has begun for a while.

Wu Feng is defending his opponent Kidd, and both of them have a strong sense of fighting in their eyes.

Kidd suddenly started and broke through Wu Feng's right side.

Wu Feng was about to catch up and repair the defense, but as soon as he turned around, he hit a wall of flesh.

"Pick-and-roll?" Wu Feng was shocked and quickly accelerated to escape the flesh wall and chased Kid in the direction of Kidd.

Just as Wu Feng was about to catch up with Kidd, Kid threw the ball in his hand towards the basket, and Wu Feng immediately shouted: "Be careful of air relay!"

Josh Smith was still entangling with Dirknowitzki. When he heard Wu Feng's reminder, he saw Lamar Odom rushing up and immediately gave up his entanglement with Dirknowitzki and turned to block Kidd's pass.

"Ah..." Al Horford roared angrily. He gathered all his strength and jumped up and suffocated Kid's pass. However, his body collided with Lamar Odom's body that jumped up and pounced on him. Both of them fell to the ground with a "thump". Moreover, Lamar Odom's body was still pressing on Al Horford.

No one paid attention to the two people lying on the ground. They all focused on the basketball. Wu Feng wanted to pull up Al Horford, but the suffocated basketball fell right in front of him, so he rushed up and copied the ball. He ran towards the Mavericks' half.

It has to be said that the Mavericks' offense and defense transitions are very fast. Although their defense is not very good.

When Wu Feng brought the ball to the frontcourt, three of the Mavericks players had retreated. Attack. Wu Feng calmed down and stabilized the rhythm.

Allen Iverson ran to the top of the arc and reached out to ask Wu Feng for the ball. After Wu Feng passed the ball to him, he singled out Lamar Odom.

A step back jump shot, Allen Iverson helped the Hawks score two points.

Jason Kidd used his teammates' cover again to pull out most of Wu Feng's position and then jumped. However, Wu Feng jumped very high. Although he did not block Kidd's shot, it also interfered with him.

"Clang", Kidd missed a jump shot, and Wu Feng took the backcourt rebound.

Wu Feng attacked the Mavericks' basket with the ball and played Lamar Odom single at the low post. When he turned around and was about to take action, Wu Feng suddenly swung his hand and passed the ball to Marvin Williams's hand on the outside.

Marvin Williams shot whenever he received the ball, not giving Jason Terry a chance to make up for defense.

With a "swish", the ball entered the net beautifully.

…………

With Marvin Williams missing a long-distance emergency stop jump shot, the first quarter ended like this.

29:23, this is the score of both sides after the first quarter.

The Hawks played very well at the start of the first quarter, but there were problems with the offense in the middle and made consecutive mistakes, resulting in the score being overtaken by the Mavericks.

But in the later stage, especially after Wu Feng and others came on the court, the Eagles' defense strengthened and once again took control of the initiative on the field. Now he is temporarily leading the Mavericks by 6 points.

In the few minutes Wu Feng and Kidd played against each other, their performance was no worse than this top-level organizational guard who could rank first in league history.

8 points, 3 rebounds, and 4 assists. This is the data Wu Feng scored in the matchup with Kidd.

Against Jason Kidd, Wu Feng still has a considerable advantage. Jason Kidd is 39 years old and is still in good shape. Although he is still in good shape and has given the Mavericks a lot of help on the offensive end, at the same time, the threat brought by his defense can no longer be compared with that of his peak, especially against players like Wu Feng.

In the second quarter, Wu Feng remained on the court.

And now, Kidd has come off the court and faces Wu Feng with young player Rodrigue Bubova.

Wu Feng was walking on the top of the arc with the ball in his arms. Rodrigue Bubova was waiting for the two steps ahead. His slightly bent body was like a stretched bowstring, and his right hand stretched forward was constantly changing directions.

Wu Feng didn't dare to be careless at all. From the Mavericks information I read before the game, he learned that although the player in front of him was not as physically as him, his defense awareness was very good.

After dribbling the ball under his crotch twice, Wu Feng suddenly accelerated and directly pulled Rodriguebubova for half of his body.

"Swish", after passing Rodriguebbova, Wu Feng made a mid-range shot without hesitation. The ball fell steadily into the Mavericks' basket.

Rodriguebbova looked serious and frowned. Wu Feng's activation speed just now was too fast, and he had no time to make up for defense.

Rodrigue Bubova did not choose to force a breakthrough, but instead made a simple pick-and-roll with Jason Terry and quickly found an opportunity to take action on the right wing.

Wu Feng was blocked by Jason Terry and quickly made up for defense, but after all, it was one step too late. Fortunately, Allen Iverson quickly pounced on him.

The moment Rodriguebeubova was about to take action, his wrist suddenly sank and quickly turned his wrist, and the ball hit the floor hard. The bounced basketball easily landed in Jason Terry's hand.

At this time, Allen Iverson's attention was on Rodriguebeubova, so he did not defend himself from Jason Terry, and Jason Terry made a easy shot from outside the three-point line.

After halftime, Wu Feng passed the ball through the ground, and the ball passed through Rodriguebeubova's feet and bounced into Al Horford's hand, helping the latter to easily dunk.

After Rodriguebbova passed the half, a wonderful pass from Sean Marion, but the "hacker" did not shoot the ball in. After the basketball bounced out of the basket, it was picked up by Rodriguebbova.

Rodrigue Bubova used Shawn Marion's cover to go straight to the basket and threw the ball out with a small throw.

But at this moment, Wu Feng staged a big hat to chase him.

With a "bang", the basketball was slapped far away by Wu Feng, and was already out of bounds and was hugged by a spectator.

"Wu Feng, Wu Feng, Wu Feng..." Seeing Wu Feng's wonderful hat, all the home team fans screamed.

"This guy is too fast. I have never seen a player with such a strong body who can run so fast." Rodriguebbova looked at Wu Feng in horror.

"Bang", since the twenty-four-second attack time was almost exhausted, Jason Terry took the action as soon as the ball was sent out, but the ball hit.

The rebound fell into Wu Feng's hands again.

Before Wu Feng passed the half, the ball had already been handed over to Allen Iverson.

Wu Feng walked on the bottom line of the right wing, and saw Allen Iverson run out of the open position and quickly passed the ball out. Allen Iverson just hesitated for a moment, and the ball had already taken a quick move.

"Swish", the basketball brushed across the net and made a wonderful sound.

"Allen, your three-pointer is getting more and more accurate." Wu Feng patted Allen Iverson's outstretched palm and said to him excitedly.

"It's your pass that is great." Allen Iverson replied with a smile.

Sean Marion's mid-range jump shot was fruitless, Lamar Odom fought for an offensive rebound, and then made up the ball, and the ball was blocked by Al Horford.

However, the ball was still snatched by the Mavericks players. After Jason Terry grabbed the offensive rebound, he jumped from the right wing without hesitation and prepared to dunk.

"Bang" and "clang", two consecutive sounds made all the fans scream.

The fans of the home team roared wildly, and the scene was spectacular.

No wonder fans do this. Any wonderful dunk or block that hits the opponent's morale can make them like this.

Just now, when Jason Terry wanted to dunk, Wu Feng rushed out halfway and pressed Jason Terry's shot tightly on the rebound.

This sudden phenomenon made Jason Terry feel a little ashamed.

After Wu Feng grabbed the backcourt rebound, he quickly passed it to Allen Iverson.

When he first arrived at the top of the arc, McGrady passed the ball to Wu Feng and asked him to organize the attack.

"Papapapapapa", Wu Feng used the ball rhythmically, and changed directions in two consecutive times, without leaving Rodrigue Bubova.

After suffering from Wu Feng's losses, Rodriguebbova seemed even more comfortable in defending Wu Feng.

Not only did he not get rid of Rodriguebeubova, but instead attracted Jason Terry's double-team defense. As he was about to be forced into a desperate situation by the opponent, Wu Feng quickly passed the ball and gave the ball to McGrady outside the three-point line in the bottom corner.

Facing Lamar Odom's defense, McGrady chose to be strong, using speed and flexibility to break through Lamar Odom, and then rushed into the penalty area. She dunked her hands.

McGrady's dunk ignited the enthusiasm of the fans again, and they cheered again.

At this time, Mavericks head coach Rick Carlisle quickly requested a timeout.

The team missed three consecutive attacks and was repeatedly blocked by the opponent. The team's morale has fallen a lot. And at this time, the opponent's offense has been played, which has expanded the score difference to more than double digits.

At this time, if you don’t call a pause, the score difference will probably reach more than 20 points. If you call a pause at that time, there will be basically no cure.

Just imagine, before the half was over, I was lagging behind by more than 20 points. It is almost impossible to turn the tables.

"Play more and cooperate, pass more and don't take action easily if there is no good opportunity. Also, pay attention to defense, our defense can do a good job. I don't want to see you easily get rid of the defense by the opponent, do you understand?"

In the Mavericks' rest area, Rick Carlisle roared loudly, and the anger on his face was clearly visible.

"Haha. You guys are really great. Have you heard the cheers of the fans? This is what you deserve. But don't be proud. Next, we have to keep it. Marvin, you will replace Tracy later; Jeff. After you replace Allen, I will see your excellent offense." Larry Drew said to the people with a smile.

Then, after the timeout, Marvin Williams replaced McGrady and Jeff Teague replaced Allen Iverson.

On the visiting team, in addition to the 'Super Mario' Sean Marion was replaced to rest, most of the other positions were played by substitutes.

As soon as the game started again, Rodriguebebova made a wonderful assist, he lifted the ball into the inside, and after Lamar Odom received the ball, he made a backward jump shot.
