"Sure enough... the thing holding us back is the depth of the bench."
During the break, Wang Feng, with a towel on his head, sat on the bench and looked up at the scorer above.
91:84.
In the third quarter, the Warriors not only recovered the point difference, but also went ahead by 7 points!
There are only 12 minutes left in the fourth quarter. Although the 7-point difference is not big, Curry's touch has completely heated up. Even double-teaming cannot be completely restricted. On the other side, Durant is constantly
Even with a pick-and-roll mismatch, he has already scored 25 points! If the Warriors still play according to the previous tactics in the fourth quarter, there will definitely be no good way to deal with it.
"Sure enough, you can't rely on defense, you can only attack."
The 7 points that the Cavaliers are currently behind are all points lost by the substitute lineup. In terms of the main force, the Cavaliers' score is not much lower than that of the Warriors.
James and Irving are two things that the Warriors cannot completely limit, including Wang Feng.
After three quarters, James scored 23 points, Irving 18 points, and Wang Feng's current personal score is 15 points.
15 points in the third quarter can only be regarded as average, but in the fourth quarter, he must exert his strength.
James may still have some energy left, but Wang Feng knows that Irving is reaching his limit in this game.
With a lot of ball possession in the first half, Irving's offensive efficiency was pretty good, scoring 17 points on 7-for-13 shooting, with a shooting percentage of 53%.
The Warriors adjusted their lineup in the third quarter. Pachulia was present on the inside, and Ying Guodala was arranged to guard Irving on the outside. The sudden increase in defensive pressure and physical consumption caused Irving's shooting percentage to begin to decline precipitously.
, only hit 2 goals in 8 shots.
In the next fourth quarter of the game, we definitely can't count on Irving to score.
"Coach, let me give it a try after I get on the field."
Wang Feng said to Tyronn Lu.
When he said this, Tyronn Lue was standing next to James and saying something. Although he had a tactical board in his hand, he did not explain the next tactical arrangements at all.
Wang Feng guessed that he was telling James: "Think of a solution quickly."
Hearing Wang Feng take the initiative to speak, all the eyes of the Cavaliers players were focused on Wang Feng.
Tyronn Lu was stunned for a moment and did not speak immediately.
But James in front of him looked at Wang Feng and nodded without thinking. "Okay, once the game starts, I will find a way to make the ball for you, leave it to you!"
After a season of running-in and familiarity, Wang Feng's stable and explosive scoring ability has already been recognized by the entire team, especially James.
To put it bluntly, James feels that Wang Feng is the most compatible with him among the teammates he has played with over the years, and he is also the teammate he is most comfortable with.
With stable three-pointers and mid-to-long-range shooting ability, he can play without the ball to create space, and can also serve as an attacker in tough battles. More importantly, on the defensive end, Wang Feng can mark the opponent's strongest outside player, completely liberating James.
These qualities are simply the standard configuration of a perfect second-in-command player.
Now, the more James looks at Wang Feng, the more he likes him, and he even values him more than Irving, who is regarded as the future of the team.
In the third quarter of the game just now, Irving has proven that he cannot maintain stable and efficient scoring under high-pressure defense. Wang Feng must give it a try.
…
The last quarter of the game begins.
The Cavaliers had the ball, and just after halftime, James handed the ball directly to Wang Feng.
Thompson is now responsible for marking Irving, so the player currently marking Wang Feng is Durant.
Durant, who is tall and has long arms, can defend Wang Feng's three-point shot from the outside, but once Wang Feng breaks through with the ball, it will be more difficult to defend with his speed and strength.
Wang Feng was not polite to Durant. He quickly moved forward and broke through to the basket with the ball.
Durant was pushed past most of his body by Wang Feng, and he could only follow behind him, trying to prevent Wang Feng's emergency stop jumper.
Wang Feng, who rushed directly to the basket, chose to take off strongly. With a bounce of up to 80, he took off at a very high height.
At this time, the Warriors had no players under the basket, including center Zaza Pachulia, who was pulled out of the penalty area by Love, who has long-range shooting ability.
Seeing Wang Feng leaping high, Durant also jumped up, his hands completely covering the entire sky above Wang Feng. The height gap between the two sides was so great that even Wang Feng's 80 jumping ability value could not make up for it.
But Wang Feng was unhurried, his body stagnated slightly in the air, his hand originally stretched out for a layup was retracted, and he pulled a windmill in the air for a layup. The basketball avoided Durant's block and hit the board into the basket.
The so-called bounce of the system is not only limited to the vertical jumping ability, but also includes the ability to stay in the air.
At present, Wang Feng has a jumping ability of 80, a very good take-off height, and he also has a certain ability to stay in the air. Looking at the NBA, the strongest players in this ability are undoubtedly the two defenders, the god of basketball Michael Jordan, and Black
Mamba Kobe Bryant.
With the score easily tied, Wang Feng glanced back at Durant, who had just landed behind him, and smiled, which was full of provocation.
"If you have the ability, why don't you give me a try?"
Durant ignored Wang Feng.
The Warriors attacked, and Curry attacked with the ball. Continuing the feel of the third quarter, Curry used the pick-and-roll to break through and hit a mid-range jumper to score.
Wang Feng is here again.
Still attacking from the outside, this time he chose to take a step-back jump shot after breaking through. Durant followed up in time, but Wang Feng's shot was in the hot zone, activating the hot zone hunter, plus several other shots.
With the blessing of the shooting buff badge, the basketball is still hitting the ball steadily.
The Warriors attack and the basketball is handed to Durant.
This time, facing Wang Feng's defense, Durant did not call for a pick-and-roll, but chose to play singles with the ball.
Wang Feng had already scored two goals from him in a row, so he had to fight back to find a place.
However, Durant faced Wang Feng's defense and attempted a mid-range jump shot, but the ball missed the basket.
"That's it?"
Wang Feng snorted disdainfully at Durant.
In the next round, Wang Feng once again singled out Durant, broke through and went straight to the basket, causing Durant to get a defensive foul. He made 2 of 2 free throws. In the first 2 minutes, Wang Feng had already scored 6 points in a row!
Durant's face was a little confused.
Originally, he avoided Wang Feng and chose to play Irving in pick-and-roll mismatches, so he struggled for a long time. Although he really wanted to win the championship, he also didn't want to be looked down upon by the outside world and thought he was lacking in ability.
