Chapter 1576 Three Consecutive Doubles, the Season Grand Slam Is Just Around the Corner

The Jazz's iron-blooded defense tends to loosen or even collapse under Ji Feng's constant impact. The most critical thing is Kirilenko. He is the basis for the Jazz's defense against Ji Feng.

However, after Ji Feng's strong one-on-three resulting in 2+1, Kirilenko had committed three fouls and Sloan had to replace him.

Korver, who was replaced again, undoubtedly did not have the defensive intensity of Kirilenko. Although he used a baseline pass to score a three-pointer, on the defensive end, even if the Jazz still chose to go to the line, A huge delay for Ji Feng. Even though Ji Feng encountered a frenzied attack near the three-point line, Ji Feng still took advantage of Korver's defensive loopholes and passed through the gap between the two!

During this period, Korver was still a good three-point shooter on the wing, but his defensive ability was still his weakness, especially in the very fierce playoffs.

Although he often blocks shots during the game, this is basically when he is assisting in defense. His overall movement speed is slow, his body is not strong enough, and his gambling style of defense are all his shortcomings.

He can still defend against the stance-type small forward, but facing a player like Ji Feng who is fast, changeable, and extremely flexible and strong, Korver has almost no success rate in single defense, and the double attack is because of his movement. The relationship is not easy to form, and he does not have Kirilenko's long arms to make up for it.

so…

"Ji Feng, can you pass the ball when faced with a double attack?"

"OMG! Ji Feng made a one-armed loop that shifted Korver's center of gravity to his left foot. Ji Feng took advantage of this opportunity and turned around to trick Deron, who was double-teamed, before the circle was encircled, and got inside!" Barkley hugged him! Hold your head, this ball is so awesome, even on the street court it will definitely be an explosive start!

Ji Feng, who entered the inside line, did not slow down when facing Millsap. He looked like he was going to hit hard. But at this time, Millsap gave up. He did not choose hard steel, but stood still and tried his best to Ji Feng. put pressure on.

However, just because you don't come to Ji Feng doesn't mean that Ji Feng doesn't come to find you!

Ji Feng directly made physical contact. As the two collided in the air, Ji Feng dunked hard with one arm. After dunking, he used the inertia on the rim to pull the rim down!

The referee's whistle sounded decisively, the thug fouled, and Ji Feng scored another 2+1.

Full of arrogance!

This attack made the Jazz's devilish home team feel like defecting. In any case, this goal was really exciting. Is it possible for one person to tear through the entire defense?

After this ball, the point difference remained unchanged, still 8 points. This may not seem big, but the rhythm was actually firmly controlled by the Lakers.

The Jazz are under great offensive pressure at this time. Once a problem occurs, it is easy to form a chain reaction!

Sure enough, Deron assisted Millsap in a pick-and-roll, and the latter fought passionately with Bynum. The two fought for 7 seconds before Millsap turned around and made a strong shot, but was interfered with and the basketball hit the basket and bounced up. Playing with the ball in the paint.

In the end, Gasol's long arm worked, and he clicked out with one finger. Ji Feng got it cleverly. The two veterans, Lao Yu and Kobe, chatted and ran directly to the frontcourt. When Ji Feng got the ball, he thought it would be Passed to Kobe, but Ji Feng found another way to reach Fisher, who had just reached the three-point line!

At this time, Miles and Deron both followed Kobe into the paint!

Delong: "..."

Miles: "..."

Fisher was not in a hurry to catch the ball, Gasol followed up and caught the ball, Kobe pulled out from the baseline, caught the ball and shot!

Score in!

"The Lakers are completely open. Such a complex offense is played easily and freely. Four people get the ball in one round, from Gasol grabbing rebounds to Ji Feng quarterback's long pass, to Fisher changing the rhythm, playing It’s so relaxing!” Yu Jia said.

Although the Jazz relied on Deron and Boozer to score some points, it did not quench their thirst. The point difference on the court was slowly widening as always. At the end of the half, the point difference had reached 12 points, and the Lakers entered the game with the lead. Rest between sessions.

"Even if the offensive end is targeted, Ji Feng can still find solutions from other aspects, such as defense and organization. Look at this second quarter, Ji Feng's data immediately picked up, with 9 points, 4 assists and 4 rebounds in a single quarter. 14 points, 6 assists and 6 rebounds in the half, as impressive as ever," said Director Zhang.

"What's more important is what the data cannot reflect. Korver and Kirilenko both committed three fouls, and Millsap and Boozer also committed three fouls. Most of this is attributed to Ji Feng. Not to mention the performance on the defensive end.”

"It's too difficult to target Ji Feng. After all, basketball is a whole, not just offense. Even if you lock Ji Feng's offense, it's useless. The Lakers are a Big 5 team." Smith also expressed a similar meaning .

Yes, this is the most desperate thing. Although Ji Feng didn't score much, he allowed several other Lakers players to give full play.

In the third quarter, Ji Feng sent out 6 assists in a single quarter and reached double figures in three quarters, helping the Lakers widen the point difference to 18 points.

The Jazz still had a glimmer of hope. Deron stopped playing pick-and-rolls and repeatedly broke into the Lakers' paint. At one point, Bynum was allowed to leave the game for four fouls. On the outside, Kirilenko hit two three-pointers, showing that he is a veteran. persistence.

But that's all. When the Jazz played a wave of 0-4 to extend the score, Kobe stepped forward to accept the game. Miles was still the same Miles. His youth was his advantage and became his disadvantage at this moment. Kobe Bryant's backpedal left him at a loss as to what to do, and the Jazz could only see the opportunity slip away from their eyes once again.

109-96, the Jazz lost with a 13-point disadvantage, and the Lakers won two consecutive victories.

The best of the game still went to Ji Feng. After only scoring 5 points in the first quarter, Ji Feng scored 20 points, 20 assists, 7 rebounds and 3 steals.

The 20+20 data also reflects the value of the regular season MVP. Ji Feng also became the first player to score 20 points and 20 assists in two games in a single playoff quarter!

What reflects Ji Feng's value is that six Lakers players scored in double figures. Kobe Bryant had 27 points, Gasol had 16 points, Bynum had 11 points, Artest had 10 points, and Farmar had 10 points. Ji Feng's organizational ability allowed the Lakers to win. The scoring group is even more powerful.

As for the Jazz, Deron had 31 points and 9 assists, Boozer had 18 points and 10 rebounds, Kirilenko had 10 points, Korver had 8 points, and Myers had 8 points. Boozer, who was so heroic in the first round, couldn't be found. The state and Miles' being completely suppressed are considered to be the key factors in the Jazz's failure.

After two consecutive losses, the third game will be played at the home court of the Utah Jazz. The Jazz can no longer afford to lose.

The Lakers naturally do not want to return to Staples again. Although they can sell one more ticket, the sooner the problem is solved in the playoffs, the better.

And when the Lakers arrived in Utah the next day, the league gave the Lakers another shot in the arm!

On May 6, the NBA officially announced the last important honor of this season, which is the best team and the best defensive team.

Ji Feng was once again selected to the All-NBA First Team and the All-Defensive First Team at the same time!
