Chapter 98
"Welcome to Portland!"
"This place is called the"City of Roses" and this is the season when roses are in full bloom!"
"May you have a pleasant journey!"
When Yao Ming got off the plane, he heard such a broadcast!
He came to Portland, naturally for Lin Feng!
To be honest!
Yao Ming's mood was a bit complicated at this time!
Because from the perspective of the Basketball Association, Yao Ming hopes that the Trail Blazers will stop in the Western Conference semifinals!
If Lin Feng continues to lead the Trail Blazers forward, the Dragon Country Basketball Association will become more and more passive!
The difficulty of Yao Ming persuading Lin Feng to be selected for the Dragon Country Team will also become greater and greater!
But!
Yao Ming felt that it was too fucking for him to have such an idea!
He shouldn't think like this!
Thinking back to his player days, he was extremely eager to lead the Rockets to the finals!
Yao Ming shook his head and dispelled some ideas from his mind!
After arriving at the hotel, Yao Ming turned on the TV directly!
The G1 game between the Trail Blazers and the Thunder has reached the last 5 minutes of the last quarter!
At this time, the score on the scoreboard was 93:89!
The Trail Blazers were leading!
"We have to win!"
Yao Ming smiled and looked at Lin Feng's technical statistics on the Internet!
27 points, 8 assists, 3 rebounds, 3 blocks, and 2 steals!
Wow!
The data column is filled up again!
Yao Ming feels that Lin Feng is playing more and more freely!
This shows that Lin Feng's strength has reached a very high level!
"I can't hold him back any longer!"
Yao Ming sighed.
What Yao Ming didn't know at this time was that Lin Feng on the court was not very satisfied with his performance in this game!
In the first half of the game, Lin Feng defended Durant perfectly, making Durant's scoring efficiency very low!
As a result, Durant and Westbrook almost couldn't help but have an internal conflict!
The Trail Blazers also led the Thunder by 13 points at the end of the half!
It seemed that this would be an easy victory!
But in the third quarter, Durant suddenly became unparalleled!
Damn it!
Lin Feng found that he had done his best in defense, but he still couldn't limit Durant!
Durant used a very simple mid-range shot. He turned into the God of Death and swung his scythe after a pull-up shot!
With 21 points in a single quarter, Durant pulled the Thunder back!
If it weren't for the strong offense of Lin Feng and Lillard, the Trail Blazers might be the one lagging behind now!
This made Lin Feng feel particularly unhappy!
Durant was bullying Lin Feng because of his insufficient height and wingspan, and he couldn't directly block his jump shot!
And the strong interference from Lin Feng was ignored because of Durant's unparalleled power!
On the court, Lin Feng ran across half the court while cursing!
Because Lin Feng was successfully hit by Durant's top shot just now!
Seeing Durant's arrogant expression, Lin Feng wanted to beat him up!
""Give me the damn ball!"
Lin Feng shouted at Lillard.
Lillard raised his eyebrows and passed the ball!
Lin Feng directly called Allen Crabbe for a pick-and-roll, replacing the defender in front of him with Durant!
Durant did not refuse such a defensive switch, and he also became serious on the defensive end!
Because the game has entered the final critical moment!
Falling behind by 4 points is a piece of cake!
A three-pointer can almost catch up!
The premise is to be able to defend first!
To be honest, Durant's defensive conditions are naturally good!
Height, arm span, flexibility, Durant has them all!
If Durant psychologically accepts a more iron-blooded physical confrontation, he may be the top striker. Defensive gate!
But it is obvious that Durant prefers to make a fuss on the offensive end, and his willingness to invest on the defensive end is not strong!
And his defensive awareness is also average!
Not every superstar is an offensive and defensive player!
Lin Feng holds the ball outside the three-point line!
From the scene, Durant can directly cover Lin Feng!
However, Lin Feng doesn't care about this at all!
Simply taking a step forward, Lin Feng successfully broke into the [Long 4] zone!
Durant seems to lack some experience in defensive confrontation!
He is indeed not usually doing this job!
Stepping on the three-point line, Lin Feng directly jumped up!
Facing Durant's long-arm block, Lin Feng ignored it and forced a shot!
""Look, I'm going to block you!"
Durant shouted, thinking that he was about to complete a bloody block!
Lin Feng's shot was too reluctant!
It was too taken for granted!
Durant was delighted and had already made plans for the next step!
Quickly pick up the basketball, and then complete a fast break dunk!
The idea was good!
But reality poured cold water on Durant!
It seemed that the basketball was within reach!
But Durant just didn't touch it strangely!
Then, Durant could only watch the basketball slip out of his palm and fly in the air!
"Is my blocking ability so bad?"
At this moment, Durant was a little doubtful about his life!
The basketball drew a perfect arc in the air!
"Swish!"
What a wonderful goal!
"Xiaoshuai, you are the only one who can make top shots!"
"I.want.you!"
Lin Feng pointed at Durant!
"Fuck!"
Durant cursed in a low voice, and couldn't understand how Lin Feng could shoot this ball!
95:89!
The Trail Blazers widened the gap!
Westbrook and Durant looked at each other, also speechless!
Durant's defense was fine for this ball!
But Lin Feng could score, so what could he do?
Cold salad!
Unknowingly, the morale of the Thunder team dropped a lot!
There are two kinds of balls that hurt morale the most!
One is that you defend desperately, but lose points because of your teammates' negligence!
The other is that you and your teammates defend with all your strength, and do it to the extreme, but the opponent still scores strongly!
��What the Thunder is facing at this time is the second situation!
"Steady!"
"We need to have a high success rate!"
Billy Donovan shouted to the court!
Durant and Westbrook both nodded!
Everyone understands the truth, but it is hard to say whether they can succeed!
This is the divisional semifinals, Westbrook forced himself to suppress his eager heart and handed the ball to Durant!
Durant's offensive state in this game is obviously very hot!
""Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Durant increased the speed of dribbling. After continuous crotch dribbling, Durant suddenly changed! After forcing to the middle distance, Durant made a fake shot, then spun 360 degrees like a gyroscope and reached out to pick the ball!
To be honest!
This really shook Lin Feng a little!
Because Durant had always pulled up directly before!
Lin Feng naturally couldn't avoid the inertia of thinking in defense!
After all, the system only gave Lin Feng points to the maximum level for defense-related abilities!
But there is no supernatural effect!
In other words, if you look at the maximum level of single defense, maximum level of assist defense, and maximum level of pick-and-roll defense, the top defensive players in the league can do it! It's just that
Lin Feng has all these full-level abilities in one person, and there is no other player in the league who can do it!
So, when Durant entered the zone, Lin Feng couldn't defend it or he couldn't defend it!
There's no way!
""
91:95!
Durant's layup brought the score difference back to 4 points!
However, the Trail Blazers don't have to panic at all!
Because there is not much time left!
As long as the Trail Blazers' offense can continue to be successful, they can win the game steadily!
