basketball myth

()(Thank you, zhouyu1976)

Andrew Bynum's personal forced single in the paint soon ran into some trouble.

Because his inside opponent, Timberwolves center Nikola Pekovic, did a very good job in defensive skills and actions, and he was not worried about his personal offense at this moment.

In addition, in fact, Andrew Bynum has always been known for his outstanding basketball talent, but he is not very strong in basic skills and cannot be said to be sharp.

Although he has learned some things from many famous senior insiders in the league after entering the league as a high school student, he has not really made a start until now. He has played many games, and most of them are still Mainly based on basketball talent and physical advantages.

Unfortunately, the inside opponent Andrew Bynum encountered tonight was the European center Nikola Pekovic. He was not the popular male inside player in the league who grabs a lot of players.

Moreover, in previous games against the Lakers, Nikola Pekovic had a strong psychological advantage over Andrew Bynum due to the team's continuous victories.

Therefore, after Andrew Bynum relied on his personal skills to force a shot under the basket for a while, he found that he could not choose to score better immediately. If he had to force the shot immediately, the chance of not scoring would also be It's very big.

For a moment, Andrew Bynum, who was holding the ball, felt very unhappy and became a little anxious.

However, he will inevitably still quickly think of the previous games against the Timberwolves. At that time, he did not have many opportunities to perform. It is rare for him to be the main attacker in this opening, but he must not waste it. Even if Even if he hits hard, he has to shoot the ball.

For a moment, he pushed Nikola Pekovic with his body again, and with a quick half-turn, he used the trick he learned from "Sky Hook" Kareem Abdul-Jabbar - a hook shot.

If Kareem Abdul-Jabbar personally chose to take the hook shot at this time, then the probability of scoring the next goal would naturally be more than 90%.

However, if it were used by Andrew Bynum, who has not yet fully mastered this technology, there is obviously still a big gap between it and the legend.

Just as Nikola Pekovic reacted very quickly and quickly stretched out his arms to interfere with the defensive action, the basketball thrown by Andrew Bynum's hook shot instantly came out of the basket. It bounced straight back.

The ball didn't go in, it bounced out of the frame!

Several nearby players on the court discovered this situation immediately. Then they all planned to compete for the rebound in order to benefit their own side.

However, this Andrew Bynum's own conditions are really very strong. He stretched out his extremely long arms first and hugged the basketball that he missed earlier.

The other Lakers players on the court were immediately overjoyed, feeling that the Lakers would have a good chance to score a tip-in or make a second attack.

Andrew Bynum himself also holds this plan.

He saw that Nikola Pekovic's body was still between him and the basket, without much obvious loss of position, so he chose to stand still for a moment with the ball. He wanted to reorganize his personal Offensive style of play.

However, what he didn't know was that Li Feng, who had just withdrawn and planned to rush for the defensive rebound, never stopped. When he found that he was holding the ball and did not act immediately, he jumped decisively towards the basketball in his hand.

Just one shot!

Snap!

The ball was successfully knocked away by Li Feng, and Nikola Pekovic quickly picked up the basketball again and immediately protected it.

"Okay!"

Inside the target center, there was another burst of cheers. Everyone was very appreciative of Li Feng's sneak attack on Bynum.

Before Andrew Bynum could react immediately, the entire Timberwolves team once again rushed toward the Lakers' penalty area like a thousand arrows were fired!

However, the Lakers retreated in time this time, and the Timberwolves failed to make a fast break.

Since they couldn't score quickly, the Timberwolves players were not worried. Ricky Rubio, who controlled the basketball, took the initiative to suppress the momentum, and everyone was ready to try a positional attack immediately.

By the way, this positional offensive style of play is really not the main style of play of the Timberwolves.

Therefore, the Lakers did not make much preparation for this aspect of defense.

Even after discovering that the Timberwolves adopted a serious positional offensive posture, everyone on the Lakers court was still a little confused.

Nikola Pekovic ignored the curiosity and doubts of the Lakers at this moment, and quickly carried Andrew Bynum behind his back, holding the basketball he just received from Ricky Rubio.

Step by step, he started to hit the Lakers inside hard.

Although, for most of this season, Nikola Pekovic and Kevin Love did not often play a rigid positional offense.

But in the playoffs, Rambis has specifically strengthened his training in this area.

Moreover, these two inside players have made great achievements in this area. Usually in games, if they have the opportunity, they can also perform well.

After strengthening specialized tactics and more training, their power in the competition field will naturally become more powerful.

Andrew Bynum finally retreated back with a trace of annoyance and anger, but was suddenly shouldered by Nikola Pekovic again.

This slightly unexpected situation made him feel a little unhappy immediately, feeling as if he had been underestimated by Nikola Pekovic.

So, he pressed Nikola Pekovic's back very fiercely, not intending to give him any room to move forward.

It's a pity that Nikola Pekovic's tactics to deal with him were not to really squeeze into the inside step by step, but he had other plans.

After Nikola Pekovic noticed that Andrew Bynum was pushing hard against him behind him, he suddenly used a deft turning movement like a defender and completely passed Andrew Bynum!

After passing Andrew Bynum, the next thing Nikola Pekovic had to face was the Lakers' empty basket.

Bang!

With a pretty explosive dunk, Nikola Pekovic also dealt a brutal blow to the Lakers inside line.

Then, he remembered some special tactics that Li Feng had quietly told him before the game.

Immediately, he excitedly celebrated his personal dunk score, and then quickly glanced at Andrew Bynum with disdain, as if he was mocking this guy for being useless on both offense and defense.

In fact, Li Feng secretly taught him this provocative trick.

Because the two teams have played against each other many times, Li Feng has always been very clear that Andrew Bynum is very immature mentally, and he is also dissatisfied with Lakers boss Kobe Bryant for occupying the ball for a long time.

Therefore, Andrew Bynum's mood during the game is destined to be difficult to get much better.

And if Nikola Pekovic takes the initiative to add fuel to the fire, Andrew Bynum will definitely be provoked and become a big time bomb in the Lakers game.

This is a very good tactic they used to deal with Andrew Bynum. In fact, it is not the first time they have used it. Li Feng reminded Nikola Pekovic again before this playoff game. It is precisely because of this.

Tactics can still be implemented smoothly and effectively.

Soon, Li Feng saw Andrew Bynum slapping the basketball so loudly that he reluctantly went to the basket to serve.

Therefore, Li Feng immediately smiled knowingly at Nikola Pekovic and expressed that he was very satisfied with his work.

Nikola Pekovic also smiled excitedly and continued to retreat to the Timberwolves' half. Next, he should be thinking about how to continue to deal with Andrew Bynum.

The Lakers still choose to continue to trust Andrew Bynum and insist on putting the basketball in his hands in the next offense and letting him carry out inside attacks.

Sure enough, this time Andrew Bynum was indeed in a similar position, once again receiving an offensive basketball from his teammates.

Andrew Bynum couldn't help but become a little more aggressive this time. He lowered his body and was focused on getting closer to the Timberwolves' basket. He wanted to change the hook attack directly into a layup or something like that.

Simple attack mode.

He thought that with such a simple close-range attack, he would be more certain to score.

When Li Feng saw Andrew Bynum's situation, he immediately took crazy action!

He decisively and boldly threw away Raymond Sessions and quickly moved toward the Timberwolves' inside line. The target he was targeting was none other than Andrew Bynum, who was hitting hard with the ball.

Then, he took advantage of the moment when Andrew Bynum was concentrating on feeling the defense of Nikola Pekovic behind him and was unable to distract himself from his side. He made another lightning-quick move and reached towards Andrew Bynum.

Shooting basketball!

"Ah! Here we go again!"

"My favorite tackle!"

"Haha. Li is too strong!"

"Lee is always able to win the opponent's ball away extremely easily!"

…

Almost immediately, the scene erupted with a series of proud comments. Everyone instantly witnessed with their own eyes that Li Feng once again snatched the basketball from the hands of Andrew Bynum. The whole action seemed to be very easy, just like casually grabbing the basketball from the deserted ground.

Picking up dropped money is just as easy.

Andrew Bynum was stunned again, and then in his very puzzled eyes, suddenly a figure wearing the blue and white jersey of the Timberwolves flashed past, and it quickly became smaller and smaller.

He quickly rushed towards the Lakers basket with the basketball, it was really like a blue and white lightning!

Raymond Sessions was the first Lakers player to work hard to retreat, and was also the only Lakers player to successfully retreat to the basket.

Facing the menacing Li Feng, Raymond Sessions planned to cause an offensive foul to make Li Feng's steal and fast break come to nothing.

Unfortunately, just when Raymond Sessions was about to stop his feet, he found that Li Feng was much faster than he expected. He had already quickly jumped into the air and shot with the ball.

Li Feng skillfully threw the basketball into the Lakers' basket, scoring the Timberwolves' sixth point of the night without any offensive foul.

At 6-0, the Timberwolves decisively suppressed the Lakers in the opening moments, showing that they were not in a rusty state of play.

But once again, when the Lakers made two consecutive inside attacks, that is, after Andrew Bynum's personal singles had problems, they quickly changed their tactics and handed the ball to Kobe, the most stable attacking point.

In Bryant's hands, it was similar to what they had done countless times before.

At present, the Timberwolves' individual defense task against Kobe Bryant has been handed over to Li Feng.

In fact, because Li Feng is the best outside defensive player of the Timberwolves, and his personal energy is always very strong. As for the sharp-edged figure who likes to personally participate in defending the opponent, Rambis now easily allows this

Behavior.

Moreover, Rambis had no reason to directly refuse Li Feng's request.

The majority of fans are even more eager to see Li Feng and Kobe Bryant face off again on the court.

In the previous games between the Timberwolves and the Lakers, Li Feng and Kobe Bryant always contributed sparks and exciting matches, and they have almost become the key points in the games between the two teams.

A precious repertoire.

Therefore, when Kobe Bryant at the scene took up the offensive banner of the Lakers again and appeared in front of Li Feng with the ball, the fans at the scene and more could not help but feel further excited.

Kobe Bryant's offensive attitude was still the same as usual, with a serious look on his face, and he was dribbling the ball leisurely. However, his whole person's aura was rising unconsciously.

This time, Kobe may have planned to take a breakthrough action against Li Feng, so he dribbled the ball continuously for a long time outside the three-point line without taking the usual fadeaway jumper.

After testing Li Feng's defensive steps, Kobe suddenly decisively used his body to force a cut!

He seemed to be planning to use his aging physical fitness to catch Li Feng off guard.

After all, according to normal circumstances, his physical fitness has declined a bit now. Simply using his body to play ball may not be the wisest choice. He does have suddenness.

However, Kobe Bryant decisively succeeded.

Li Feng did not particularly notice that Kobe would attack him in the purest way, nor did he expect that Kobe would forcefully attack him.

Fortunately, his personal reaction has never been slow. When he realized that Kobe's entire body was about to leave him and break through to the Timberwolves basket, he immediately kicked his feet vigorously on the spot and quickly moved towards Kobe's moving body.

Fly away!

Almost instantly, he and Kobe were inseparable again.

In this way, in fact, Kobe Bryant did not really get rid of him completely. It is still difficult to score directly.

Kobe did not continue to fight hard. After he discovered in time that the surprise breakthrough was only half successful, he immediately turned around and turned towards Li Feng.

Kobe's turn was also very beautiful and sharp, which surprised Li Feng for the first time!

Li Feng couldn't help but think that if he immediately followed Kobe and passively turned around to defend, it would definitely be too late.

So, he quickly thought of a new countermeasure, which was to jump up directly behind the body where he expected to be close to Kobe after he finished turning around, and he also took the initiative to extend his arms in advance.

As expected, Kobe Bryant immediately jumped up from the floor after completing his turn, aiming for a mid-range shot at the Timberwolves' basket instead of continuing to forcefully deal with Nikola Pekovic standing inside.

.

Just when Kobe lifted the basketball in his hand above his head and was about to move it towards the basket, Li Feng finally made full use of his defensive action!

He waved his hand vigorously and quickly swatted the basketball in Kobe's hand from behind.

This shot was a perfect shot!

As soon as Kobe moved the basketball out a little, he felt a strange force coming from the basketball.

Then, the basketball above his head started to jump very strangely and irregularly, which immediately caused another burst of exclamation and joy from the fans at the scene.

"Block!"

There were fans who were the fastest and immediately came to a conclusion about Li Feng’s actions just now.

But then, just on the court, Li Feng and Kobe Bryant didn't stop moving. They quickly continued to scramble to pick the basketball that started bouncing on their heads.

You clicked on the two people and I dialed, but neither of them could control the basketball smoothly immediately. Instead, they all moved towards the outside unconsciously, and the basketball kept flying above their heads.

At this moment, Michael Beasley, who was very close to the two of them, suddenly saw the right opportunity. Suddenly he jumped up high and snatched the ball from behind. Then he immediately adjusted and faced the Lakers.

The team's backcourt rushed over again!

When Kobe Bryant saw this, he immediately threw away Li Feng, who had just been entangled with him, and quickly chased after Michael Beasley.

In just a few minutes of the game, the Timberwolves had already made several attacks. Kobe Bryant really didn't want to see the Timberwolves score easily again.

But during the fast break, Michael Beasley did not forget to look back and take a look at the specific situation behind him.

After discovering in time that Kobe Bryant was chasing after him, he suddenly had an idea and thought of Li Feng, who was rushing up behind him.

Michael Beasley suddenly jumped up a little far from the basket and barely completed a turn in the air.

Then, he completed a ground-breaking pass to the floor. After dodging Kobe, the basketball flew comfortably into the hands of Li Feng, who quickly followed up.

Li Feng suddenly got this basketball, so naturally he would not be polite.

Facing Kobe Bryant's emergency turn and jumping to defend, he held the ball high in one hand and slightly held Kobe Bryant's arm with the other, forcing him through Kobe Bryant's tight body.

He pressed the basketball in his hand hard into the basket!

Dunking on Kobe Bryant was indeed extremely refreshing!

Then, the center of the target seemed to be lit with a fuse, and it exploded instantly!

In addition to here, in many places around the world watching this game, there were varying degrees of enthusiasm or different attitudes!
