Chapter 387 The first encounter with Owen(1/3)

After defeating the Mavericks, the gap between the Hawks and the Heat has become smaller. As long as they play better next time, they surpass the Heat to top the Eastern Conference, it will not be too difficult.

On April 4, US time, Wu Feng welcomed a meaningful opponent - Kyrie Irving.

Irving was the No. 1 pick last year, but Wu Feng has not played against this No. 1 pick yet.

The Hawks encountered the Cavaliers three times this season, but Wu Feng did not face Irving because of injury, which made Wu Feng feel a little regretful.

The reason for regret is that Wu Feng thinks Irving is a very talented and promising supernova. If nothing unexpected happens, Kyrie Irving will be the best rookie of the season.

Therefore, Wu Feng is very looking forward to competing with this newcomer king.

Today, Wu Feng will fight with Irving, so he is very looking forward to it.

At six:30 pm, the battle between the Eagles and the Knights began.

Although this game is not an important game, the fight between Wu Feng and Irving has attracted a lot of attention from fans.

After all, these two people may become leaders in the league in the next few years.

…………

The first attack in this game was initiated by the Cavaliers, and the person who controlled this attack was naturally Kyrie Irving.

As soon as Irving came to the frontcourt with the ball, Wu Feng came up excitedly.

Irving was also quite excited when he saw Wu Feng.

Facing Wu Feng, Irving chose to play singles.

However, his attack was closely guarded by Wu Feng.

"Clang". Kyrie Irving's first iron shot, and the rebound was snatched by Josh Smith.

Josh Smith passed the ball to Wu Feng, who caught the ball and slowly advanced towards the frontcourt.

After halftime, Wu Feng quickly handed the ball to Koksinrich.

Koksinridge did not stick too much to the ball and handed the ball to the inside.

Al Horford held the ball in his right hand and tentatively pushed it behind him. Behind him was Anderson Valejo of the Cavaliers.

El Horford tentatively squeezed his seat and found that Anderson Valejo's steps were faintly loose.

I was delighted that Al Horford's domineering power burst out instantly. Anderson Valecho is also a player who dares to fight and fight. Although sometimes he will fall, this is also a defensive strategy.

Al Horford's momentary force made him unable to help but be knocked away. Al Horford turned around in a half way, hooked his hand and hooked the ball into it, helping the team score 2 points.

Anthony Parker led the game through the half, and he easily avoided Wu Feng's several sneak attacks.

Using his teammates' cover, Anthony Parker passed Wu Feng just by shaking and changing direction. Before Anthony Parker made up for defense, he passed the ball to Kyrie Irving at the top of the arc.

When the ball reached Kyrie Irving's hand, Wu Feng had rushed over quickly. The moment Anthony Parker broke through, Wu Feng had noticed Kyrie Irving's reverse movement and got rid of the defense of Hawks players. He decisively made up.

Kyrie Irving's face was very calm, without any surprise. Taking advantage of Wu Feng's figure, he trembled his wrist slightly. The ball quickly flew from Wu Feng's right to Antoine Jamison in the inside.

After several consecutive tentative attacks, Al Horford's defensive skills were not ordinary. No matter how Antoine Jamison's footsteps moved, he stuck a small area outside the three-second zone.

Antoine Jamison did not play hard and immediately transferred the ball out. After Kyrie Irving received the ball from the bottom line of the left wing, he took advantage of the Hawks players' defense and jumped up high onions on the dry land. His wrists trembled gently. The basketball quickly flew out of his fingertips and spinned rapidly in the air.

"Clang", the ball hit the front of the ring and bounced above the net.

Several players under the basket were already staring at the basketball in the air with full concentration, their bodies bent slightly, and their bodies were tightly tight, like bowstrings stretched out, just waiting for the ball to fall and then fired quickly.

With his height advantage, Antoine Jamison grabbed the offensive rebound and then sent the ball into the basket with a tip-in.

"Jamison played really well on the offensive end today, and he made full use of his experience." The commentator said.

Today, the Hawks were very patient in passing the ball, and they did not perform recklessly in the face of the Cavaliers' defense.

Al Horford's inside ball attracted two Cavaliers' defensive players. They passed the ball from a small angle under the basket and handed it to Josh Smith. Anthony Parker did not dare to slacken at all and rushed in to make up for defense immediately.

When Josh Smith saw Anthony Parker being sucked over, he did not rush to take action, but waited to take him to his side, throwing a high throw, and the ball drew a beautiful parabola in the air and handed it to Wu Feng's bottom line on the right wing.

Wu Feng, who was unpreserved, slowly jumped up from the three-point line, and his fingertips moved the basketball, and the orange basketball flew out quickly from his fingertips.

"Swish", the basketball is hollow into the net!

"Great!" Al Horford raised his thumb at Wu Feng excitedly.

Wu Feng nodded constantly, and then ran back to defend with his teammates.

The Cavaliers' offense is still based on positional battles. After Antoine Jamison fell to the inside, Anthony Parker lifted the ball high into the inside.

Tonight, Antoine Jamison had a good touch, so the first attack was handed to him. As soon as Antoine Jamison received the ball, Al Horford and Radmanovic immediately doubled against him. Antoine Jamison did not find an offensive opportunity, so he had to pass the ball to Anderson Varécho, who was pulled to the free throw line.

After Anderson Valejo received an pass from Antoine Jamison, he directly made a mid-range shot.

With a "swish", the ball hit steadily, and Antoine Jamison gained another assist.

In the Hawks' offense, Marvin Williams broke through with the ball, and the ball passed out of bounds. The mistake made the Cavaliers gain the ball rights.

Kyrie Irving attacked with the ball, and Wu Feng defended him. The best among the two rookies competed for the second head-on battle.

Kyrie Irving seemed to be very confident in his speed and continued to speed up and break through. However, all of them were resolved one by one by Wu Feng.

Kyrie Irving broke through again, but the ball was lost when he turned around, and Marvin Williams gained a steal.

Wu Feng made a wonderful pass from Al Horford, assisting him in an all-relay dunk.

On the Cavaliers, Kyrie Irving wanted to cheat Wu Feng for a foul from outside the three-point line. However, Wu Feng was not fooled. After Kyrie Irving passed the ball into the inside, he ran to the side to catch the back pass from the inside, and made a jump shot from the outside of the three-point line.

Unfortunately, Wu Feng's backup defense was very good, Kyrie Irving's jump shot made a bad shot, and Anthony Parker fought for a defensive rebound.

The Hawks played a fast break, and Wu Feng drove the ball into the Cavaliers' inside line. He avoided Antoine Jamison's block and made a layup.

…………

With Omi Caspians missing a mid-range jump shot, the first quarter ended.

The Hawks came from behind and overtook the Cavaliers with 2 points to enter the second quarter with 27:25.

At this time, the second quarter had already begun.

Anthony Parker quickly led the ball through half. However, Wu Feng also appeared in front of him as soon as possible.

Anthony Parker dared not slacken at all for Wu Feng's meticulous defense. In the previous matchup, he was obviously at a disadvantage. Wu Feng's excellence was not only reflected in passing and scoring. His performance in defense was also very outstanding.

Seeing Anthony Parker breaking through several times, Antoine Jamison quickly pulled out and made a simple pick-and-roll with Anthony Parker.

Although Wu Feng had already defended this move, when he faced Antoine Jamison, he was completely blocked. He watched Anthony Parker hand the ball to the inside. Anderson Varécho successfully ran back from the baseline and passed it to Kyrie Irving on the outside, who scored a mid-range shot.

The Cavaliers' offense tonight was very smooth, even better than the previous wins.

If the Hawks want to win tonight's game, they must play a better offense and at the same time, they must improve their defense.

After receiving the ball, Wu Feng quickly led the ball through the half. Wu Feng did not seem to be in a hurry to break through, but stayed slightly at the top of the arc.

Although it wasn't long, it was enough for the Cavaliers players to react. Anthony Parker spread his arms and bent his upper limbs, which fully demonstrated his excellent offensive ability to defend the ball.

However, Wu Feng's direction change is very fast, and his movements are very coherent, which makes Anthony Parker unable to make accurate judgments.

"Sizi." The sound of sneakers rubbing the floor made Anthony Parker affirm Wu Feng's breakthrough direction.

"Hmph", the two of them collided violently, and both groaned.

Just when Anthony Parker thought he had blocked Wu Feng's breakthrough and was a little satisfied, his face suddenly sank. At this time, Wu Feng's hands were empty, and the ball disappeared at some point.

"Swish", Koksinridge easily hit a goal outside the three-point line at the forty-five degrees angle of the right wing.

After the offense and defense were transferred, Anthony Parker quickly passed the ball through half.

Anthony Parker looked at Wu Feng who was waiting for the three-point line, and his face was solemn.

The Cavaliers' offensive pace was not fast, and Anthony Parker made several breakthroughs to delay time. When the ball reached Omecasby's hands, the offensive time was only six seconds left.

Seeing that the Cavaliers' offensive time was not long, Omecasby took the ball and rushed towards the inside line after receiving the ball. Marvin Williams immediately stepped forward to defend with his body, using his slender upper arm to firmly block Omecasby's cutting direction.

Omecasby's basic skills are quite solid, with threats outside the three-point line, and the stability of mid-range shots is also pretty good. However, under Marvin Williams' fierce defense, his shot ended in failure.

"Clang", the basketball bounced high.

Two big players of the Cavaliers jumped up to grab rebounds at the same time, and Al Horford, who was sandwiched in the middle, finally got the space to take off, but under the clamping of the two big players, his chance of grabbing defensive rebounds was very low.

Moreover, due to physical strength, Al Horford did not perform well in this game, especially in terms of rebounding protection.

Al Horford clenched his teeth, and his face burst out. Then he came to the front and got in touch with the rebound. What was even more surprising was that Al Horford did not grab the rebound tightly, but used his fingers to directly dial the ball out in the air.

The moment El Horford touched the ball with his finger, he knew that the possibility of protecting the rebound was not very high. Even if he could take the rebound, he would probably fall into the double-team of two opponents, and it would be difficult to hand over the ball. So it would be better to fan the ball out directly. He believed that his teammates could easily receive the ball.

Unfortunately, Al Horford's strength was a little stronger. The ball landed a little far and was almost about to fly out of the sideline.

Seeing that the basketball was about to fly out of the sideline, Wu Feng chased after him like lightning and then rushed. The moment the ball flew out of the sideline, Wu Feng picked up the ball, then shook his hand, and the ball flew over half of the court and entered Marvin Williams's hand.

Before the Cavaliers players could return to defense, Marvin Williams easily showed off a one-handed windmill dunk.

Seeing this, Byron Scott sighed helplessly and asked for a pause.

Wu Feng's fighting will manifest in the ball just now made him deeply admire. The reason why he sighed was that he sighed that there was no such player here.

Al Horford hugged Wu Feng with one hand and touched Wu Feng's head with the other. Several guys returned to the Eagles' rest area while talking and laughing.

On the big screen of the Quick Loan Arena, Wu Feng just flew to save the ball and assisted Marvin Williams to dunk. Many home fans were making noise, as if discussing Wu Feng.

After the timeout, the Cavaliers' lineup did not change, but they strengthened their attacks in the inside and handed more balls to Antoine Jamison.
