Chapter 486 [New York back to back]
When Ye Feng left the court, he received applause from many Knicks fans. Not everyone is a hardcore fan supporting the home team, and they also like to watch celebrities get high scores.
The Clippers finally defeated the New York Knicks 125-108...
Stern just spoke, and Ye Feng responded immediately. In this game, he increased his average score by more than 2 points, which was closer to 40+. After the game, the media exclaimed that Ye Feng was about to explode, and skills such as breakthrough, jump shot, back-on attack had reached the peak of his career. His scoring data decreased last season, and some people said that his ability had declined. Now everyone knows that he has just changed his playing style, his playing time is too short, and his efficiency is still very high. In this game, Ye Feng played for 40 minutes, scoring 67 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 steals, completely dominating the game. In contrast, Cameron Anthony, who scored 38 points, was nothing great.
Tyson Chandler and Stadameer both had no choice but to play Ye Feng when defending the pick-and-roll, Nash and JR Smith had no chance to defend him. Anthony's defense has been criticized and he has not had many matches with Ye Feng in the whole game. Ronnie Brewer is the only defensive player on the outside who can cause some trouble for Ye Feng, but once he gets on the attack, he will be a little worse.
Many people say that Nash is overrated, and the two regular season MVPs were very well-behaved. In the past, the Clippers could play high scores and super data when they played against the Suns. Now that Nash is in the Knicks, Ye Feng is starting to score points in Madison Garden. Nash's defense is too poor, and as long as he is there, the team's defense will have obvious loopholes. Although the substitute point guard Sam Porter did not shoot well and organized the passes worse, he could provide defense to the team. When he was on the court, the Knicks lost less. Knicks fans felt that it was a big loss to introduce Nash in the summer.
Nash left the Suns and left the running and bombing tactics, and was destined to be "unsafe in the evening". He is lucky in the Knicks, at least he can get relatively beautiful data. If he joins a slow-paced team, such as the Lakers and the Spurs, he will definitely lose even the data and will become a teammate at the CBA level...
As winners, the Clippers welcome back-to-back.
There is an advantage to playing the Nets. You don’t have to fly overnight to the away game anymore, and you don’t even have to change the hotel. The next day, the Clippers took a bus to Brooklyn, and the Nets’ new home court. The two teams are in New York, allowing them to rest better and recover their strength.
Although the Nets could not take it lightly, the coaching staff studied the method of defending Ye Feng for a long time. Only by defending him can they have a chance to win. Last finals, "Little General" Iver Johnson was questioned by people for his unsuccessful defense against Ye Feng.
This season, the Clippers left Josh Smith and Tony Allen, and their impact power decreased, but they added several three-pointers, but it became even more difficult to double-team Ye Feng. Some teams tried their best to limit Ye Feng and never gave him any chance to attack easily. First of all, there must be someone on the outside who constantly entangled him, going around and half-circling forward to defend. Stop him from receiving the ball. He can only receive the basketball through cover, which consumes physical strength. After the cover, the player must catch up and replace the defense as soon as possible, so that he cannot accelerate to break through the inside line.
, In addition, someone must block Ye Feng's passing route. It is equivalent to three people dealing with Ye Feng one. If this is not the case, he cannot be restricted. The other four people have to rely on round conversion positions to defend. The ending of this defensive method is often Ye Feng passes the ball, and the outside players hit three points.
If you don't double-team, you have to use the best defensive players to defend alone and teammates to help you defend. This is the method used by most teams this season. As long as you grasp the offense well, you can stand stalemate with the Clippers, you won't lose too much game. But Ye Feng may score high scores.
The Clippers' rookie pitchers are great. Especially Harrison Barnes and Perry Jones, they have a height advantage and are not good at blocking the shooting.
Perry Jones made 4 three-pointers on the court, which made the Knicks cry. As long as it was an open shot, the 211cm big man was very sure. Harrison was already a stable member of the Clippers' starting lineup. In addition to three-pointers, he learned singles skills from Ye Feng in the team, and his strength has also improved.
Harrison grew up in abuse. Ye Feng never was polite in singles, and he could use skills such as back-to-body. In training, his teammates don’t have to be back-to-body, and it seems like they are defending him, but who would be polite with Harrison in the game? In the game against the Lakers, Kobe could use his back-to-body to beat Harrison, so that he could see his shortcomings and disadvantages more quickly before he could make progress.
In the game against the Nets, Thibodeau decided to let Paul Gasol return to the starting lineup to fight against "Warcraft" Howard Thomas also entered the starting lineup, against John Wall Wall Wall, who was very fast, and Hinrich was afraid that he could not keep up. Thomas could defend himself as a mainstay. If Wall could force him to attack with a jump shot, it would be beneficial to the Clippers. Wall's shooting is still not very good this season, and he could not directly score three-pointers from the outside, even if Thomas was only 173cm.
Ye Feng is responsible for defending James Harden. If he doesn't defend Harden specifically and let him play casually, it will be difficult for the Clippers to win this game. Small forward Harrison is against Caron Butler and Love is not particularly strong in defense of Humphries Humphries, but his strength and explosiveness are very strong, and it will be difficult for Jones to defend himself on the court.
Thibodeau only emphasized one thing - hand over the ball to Ye Feng!
The game was broadcast live on TN*t Radio. Before the game, Barkley said: "I don't know how many points Ye Feng can score in this game? If he scores a high score, New York will go crazy for him. No one can score more than 60 in a row."
Kenny Smith smiled and said, "I have too high demands on him. I think it's possible that the Nets are a team known for their defense."
Barkley said: "It depends on how they play. The five outside shooters on the Clippers can't double-team casually. The Nets also tried the double-team last time in the finals. Ye Feng almost played a triple-double in the finals. If he was single, Butler, Ariza, Bathir and others would find it difficult to defend him alone. The situation facing the Nets is not much different from other teams."
When Ye Feng appeared, many fans applauded him, as if this was his home court. The Nets just moved here this season and there were not many hardcore fans. The Clippers' outstanding record attracted everyone's attention. Even the Nets fans like to watch the Clippers' games. Just appear, the Clippers' momentum is not inferior to the Nets.
Ye Feng shook hands and greeted Howard, and said with a smile: "Do you want to say something like this time that you will definitely defeat me?"
Howard said seriously: "Yes, I will find a way to beat Je. You have to be careful. We lacked scorers last season, but now we have nothing."
Ye Feng was not confident enough to defeat the Nets, but he would not show weakness and smiled and said, "As long as the Clippers have me, they will not lose to any team."
With Harden and Jamal Crawford, the Nets' offensive ability has indeed improved compared to last season. When Harden came off, the Nets liked to play No. 2 with Crawford, and his attack power was really strong. The Crawford family seems to have the tradition of being the best sixth man, and it is also very good in the Wizards' Jordan Crawford.
The Clippers started Gasol, Love, Harrison, Ye Feng, and Thomas.
The Nets' five players Howard, Humphries, Butler, Harden, Wall.
The game began, Gasol beat Howard by jumping. This time Howard jumped late. His height was half a head shorter than Gasol, and his arm span was also different. He lost the game. Without the Magic, people felt that Howard was not that strong. His data had a comprehensive decline. There were only 10.7 rebounds this season, and his transfer was like a proverb of the relationship between stars and tactics. In the Magic, it was not that he was invincible, but that the No. 4 position was too weak. He had to do two jobs by himself, and the rebounds were all grabbed by him, so the data was naturally beautiful.
The Clippers attacked first, Thomas dribbled the ball through halftime, Ye Feng advanced to the main position in the interior, butler was the main defense, and the Nets were in a mixed defense, but Butler specifically dealt with Ye Feng. With pure joint defense, Ye Feng could pull out a jump shot during the transfer process, but the Nets didn't do that. Harden, Humphries and others were not far from Ye Feng, and they could be ready to assist in defense at any time. Even if they didn't double-team, they could put some psychological pressure on him.
The Nets attach great importance to defense Ye Feng. Butler went around to defend as soon as he came up. Love pulled out and Humphries followed. This was a good opportunity. If Kidd had immediately thrown the ball to the sky and rolled the inside. But Hinrich did not have such a passing level, so he gave Love. Humphries blocked Love, Ye Feng turned around and threw Butler away, and ran back with all his might. Love saw the opportunity and passed the ball to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng rushed out of the outside line, but Butler followed very tightly. However, he was chasing from behind, and inertia was destined to stop and turn faster than Ye Feng.
Ye Feng did not pause, stepped on the three-point line and turned around and dribbled the ball from the right side to enter the three-point line and threw away Butler. Harden let go of Harrison to make up for defense.
Harrison learned to be smart and would not stand there waiting for Butler to switch defenses by turning around and run towards the bottom line. Ye Feng jumped up and sent the ball over. The position of the ball was so good that he had to pass it.
Harrison made an open three-pointer in the bottom corner and made a steady hit! 3-0. The Clippers gave the Nets a warning to the Nets at the beginning.
When returning to defense, Ye Feng faced Harden and said lightly: "Come on, let me see if I have really become a star this season."
Harden is the main scorer of the Nets, but he will not attack Ye Feng. Ross and Durant are very troublesome to face Ye Feng without cover. He has been overshadowed by Ye Feng many times in the past two years and does not want to try again.
Harden ran at the baseline, and Humphries made a cover without the ball. Once misplaced, Wall passed the ball in from the outside, and Thomas also had obvious weaknesses. He was too short, so Wall could easily lob the ball into the inside. After Harden received the ball, he faced Love, and faked his move and swung out of the space and jumped the ball into the ball. 3 to 2.
Just look at the momentum of both sides, you will know that this game will be in a confrontation again!
