The half-time break allowed me to recover a lot of my strength.

Lian Feng couldn't help but sigh at this body.

As the injury threshold increases, not only physical strength increases, but also the ability to recover physical strength.

However, in a high-intensity game like the playoffs, there is no guarantee that the whole game will be full of energy.

But what does that matter?

It can even be said that it has been a long time since I played such a hearty game.

If you haven't experienced the playoffs, you really won't understand this intensity.

However, the stronger you are, the better.

After the start of the second half, Paul still implemented the tactic of picking and rolling with David West and running into open spaces.

In this game, Lian Feng did not hold the ball much, and Paul was mainly holding the ball.

There is no problem with this. Both he and Paul can play an important role when holding the ball. But the difference between Paul and himself is that he can be very strong even without the ball, while Paul is useless without the ball.

.

Therefore, it makes the most sense to give the ball to Paul.

Holding the ball does not mean the right to shoot. Being without the ball is also the main point of firepower output.

In the second half, Lian Feng still made a lot of moves. Such moves made his physical strength drop a lot, but Battier, who was marking him, would definitely feel even more uncomfortable.

Battier's positioning in this game, to put it bluntly, is to defend the forward.

Battier is a very smart player. He was able to get two second-team defensive positions not because of his strong physical fitness, but because of his brain.

Lien Feng's breakthrough ability is top-notch, so if he receives the ball in the right place, it will be difficult to defend.

Therefore, Battier understands that his strategy for defending the forward must be clear from the beginning. The key point is not to let him receive the ball in a comfortable place.

Battier has repeatedly watched most of Lian Feng's breakthrough videos and has a very clear understanding of Lian Feng's breakthrough habits. Therefore, in this game, he was on guard and specifically restricted Lian Feng's catching.

It seems that the first section has worked.

In the entire first quarter, Lian Feng only took one shot.

But at the beginning of the second quarter, Battier felt something was wrong, because the Hornets' offensive method was different from what he imagined. The forwards did not hold the ball in singles - although this is very reasonable in the playoffs, but in that case

Wouldn't it be a waste of his ability?

Soon, Battier understood. The forwards kept using off-ball movements to get rid of their own markings. At the same time, their players would constantly pick and roll to destroy their own markings.

Then, Lien Feng made five shots in the second quarter and is 6-of-6 so far, scoring 13 points.

But Lian Feng had never shown such a strong ability without the ball before!

To be precise, this tactic of their team is very effective and can always create open mid-range shots for the forward.

Just when Battier felt that his defense was in trouble, Lian Feng started to move again.

I can't help but marvel, Lian Feng's physical strength is so good?

Even if he was just marking, his physical strength had dropped significantly, but Lian Feng didn't seem to slow down at all.

Shane was a little impatient.

In fact, Lian Feng was not tired, his legs were already very sore.

But it must be done!

It's the playoffs!

Lian Feng ran out of space again, and he saw Paul also appeared in space.

At this time, Paul can choose to take action.

But Paul passed the ball to himself without any hesitation.

Lien Feng took the ball and was about to shoot, but Battier pounced on him.

It's faster than before.

Some thoughts flashed through Lian Feng's mind.

Not a good thing.

This shows that Battier has begun to find the trick to destroy this tactic.

However, you won’t be able to defend this ball!

Lian Feng raised his hand and shook it, causing Battier to fly up.

Then, Lian Feng accelerated his pace and killed the penalty area.

On the inside is Dayao, who spreads his arms and covers the sky.

Lian Feng rushed forward without fear and jumped up when he was still two steps away from Yao Ming.

Yao Ming's hand swatted away like a fly swatter.

When he was about to take the ball in his hand, Lian Feng held his breath, tightened his core, and at the same time a wave of tenacity came out. With the help of the skill Aerial Dodge King, he completed an exaggerated pull lever in the air and dodged it.

Yao Ming's block.

He had not expected this action, it was just a subconscious dodge ball. At the last moment, after throwing the ball, he had lost his balance.

Before landing, Lian Feng was pulled by Yao Ming to prevent him from falling.

Then, the two looked up together and saw the basketball bounce twice on the rim and score.

"This is a beautiful shot!"

Yao Ming patted his shoulder.

Lian Feng laughed loudly: "Really?"

After scoring this goal, the morale of the Hornets was obviously high, and they also performed well on the defensive end.

Defended several Rockets attacks in a row.

Finally, the Rockets called a timeout.

Byron Scott just encouraged things like "Just fight! Good job."

Lian Feng noticed that opposite Van Gundy was writing and drawing on a tactical board. For some reason, this scene gave him a bad feeling.

After taking the field again, the team continued to implement the tactics just now.

After running for two rounds, Lian Feng's expression suddenly changed.

There is no space left!

The Rockets had obviously seen through their routine. Van Gundy used a seemingly simple defensive switch tactic to break the final movement.

When the forward ran into the right position, the defender became Tracy McGrady.

Paul's pick-and-roll tactics also encountered difficulties and were unable to produce results.

It seems that the offenses of both sides are in trouble.

Lian Feng knew that at this time, it was time for him to play his role.

His position, in addition to the final end point of most routines, is also the singles point when the routine fails.

The forward asks for the ball from the wing.

The ball was passed.

Lian Feng made a drastic change and pulled back, and Tracy McGrady followed suit with a follow-up movement.

Lian Feng suddenly noticed that McGrady's posture was a little uncoordinated, and at the same time he frowned slightly...

Could it be...

Lian Feng remembered what the media had said before about Tracy McGrady being injured.

This thought passed quickly, and Lian Feng suddenly accelerated in the opposite direction.

McGrady failed to defend.

He broke through the inside line and scored a goal with a throw from outside Yao Ming's defensive range.

Then, Lian Feng looked back at McGrady, who didn't speak.

It seems that the injury still has a great impact on him.

Looking at the rest of Team Rocket, everyone was panting and sweating profusely.

Ah...their physical strength...

A sharp light flashed in Lian Feng's eyes.

The main players of the Rockets have no rest!

Lian Feng glanced at Van Gundy off the court. Although this old man has two skills, the Rockets still have the same old problem: lineup depth!

Offensively, except for Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady, everyone else is not very good. Especially those players on the bench...

It doesn't matter if you let them vote.

And now, their physical strength has reached a critical point!

After realizing this, Lian Feng decided to take over the game.

At this moment, Yao Ming was substituted and took a rest.

Yao Ming was resting off the court while watching the performances of both sides on the court.

Lien Feng started to ask for the ball.

Gradually, Yao Ming raised his eyebrows slightly.

After he came off the field, Lian Feng seemed to be suddenly opened up as a leader and continued to score breakthroughs.

The first two goals were scored by Lian Feng after his movement failed and the defender turned into McGrady.

Forcefully eat Tracy McGrady?

It's too disrespectful to McGrady.

But soon, Lian Feng showed his touch and began to directly catch the ball on the wing and beat Battier alone.

One thing to say, in one-on-one defense, Battier cannot restrict the forwards very well.

His speed is not fast enough in comparison, and he mostly uses his repeated research on his opponents before the game to defend.

Many times, Battier can indeed make attackers uncomfortable. But this does not mean that he can ignore the gap in physical fitness and ability between the two sides.

Especially after a lot of physical exertion, Battier obviously couldn't keep up with Lian Feng.

In the third quarter, Lian Feng scored 11 points and three assists. It can be said that Lian Feng took over the game in the second half of the third quarter.

69 to 76, the Hornets led by 7 points and ended the third quarter.

So far, Lian Feng has scored 24 points!

Yao Ming touched his chin.

Is this guy so physically fit?

However, when Yao Ming came on the court again after a short break, he saw that Lian Feng was out of breath. Although he repeatedly told Byron Scott that he could still play, he was still put on the bench.
