Chapter 155 We are a very durable team [Second update]
"They are a group of excellent young men. Although our physical strength has not recovered yet, and although we were behind in the first half of the quarter, they played very hard. ""Net.com.com They have a firm will, and it is the will that supports them in their attack and defense." Stan Van Gundy replied.
"In three days, you will have back-to-back. What do you think about your schedule this season?" The female reporter seemed to know the guys of the Magic and asked a question that made them extremely annoying.
"As for the schedule of this season, I just want to say one thing, we are a very durable team." Stan Van Gundy said bluntly without caring about his image.
It's no wonder that there were five back-to-back times in the first seventeen games, and any team would have had such a reaction.
The female reporter seemed to have expected Stan Van Gundy to speak amazing words, so she was not surprised.
"Thank you, Coach Van Gundy. I wish you all a great game today."
"Thanks."
After saying this, Stan Van Gundy returned to the Magic's rest area.
At this time, the second quarter had already begun.
Cork Hinrich quickly led the ball through half, but Wu Feng also appeared in front of him as soon as possible.
Cork Hinrich dared not slacken at all for Wu Feng's meticulous defense. In the previous matchup, he was obviously at a disadvantage. Wu Feng's excellence was not only reflected in passing and scoring, but also in defense. Wu Feng's defense was even better than offense.
So far, Wu Feng has ranked third in the league with 2.1 steals, and his blocks have reached 1.6, and he can also rank in the top 15 in the league. He is the player with the highest blocks per game in the defender.
Seeing Cork Hinrich break through several times, however, Yi Jianlian quickly pulled out and made a simple pick-and-roll with Cork Hinrich. (《》彩 7*)
Although Wu Feng had already defended this move, when he faced Yi Jianlian, he was completely blocked. He watched Cork Hinrich hand the ball to the inside. Javier McGee successfully ran back from the baseline and passed it to John Wall on the outside, who scored in the mid-range shot.
The Wizards' offense tonight was very smooth, even better than the previous wins.
If the Magic want to win tonight's game, they must play a better offense and at the same time, they must improve their defense.
After receiving the ball, Wu Feng quickly led the ball through the half. Wu Feng did not seem to be in a hurry to break through, but stayed slightly at the top of the arc.
Although it wasn't long, it was enough for the Wizards players to react. Cork Hinrich spread his arms and bent his upper limbs, which fully demonstrated his excellent offensive ability to defend the ball.
However, Wu Feng's direction change is very fast, and his movements are very coherent, which makes Cork Hinrich unable to make accurate judgments.
"Sizi." The sound of sneakers rubbing the floor made Cork Hinrich affirm Wu Feng's breakthrough direction.
"Hmph", the two of them collided violently, and both groaned.
Just when Cork Hinrich thought he had blocked Wu Feng's breakthrough and was a little satisfied, his face suddenly sank. At this time, Wu Feng's hands were empty, and the ball disappeared at some point.
"Swish", Vince Carter easily hit a goal outside the three-point line at the forty-five degrees angle of the right wing.
"Teacher Yang, what do you think of Wu Feng's passing?" Yu Jia suddenly asked Yang Yi.
"Pass, pass the ball..." Yang Yi muttered a few words, then replied with a smile: "Wu Feng's pass is not as gorgeous as Nash, nor as strange as Rondo, but his pass is very practical. ("《》.com) Let's put it this way, Wu Feng's pass does not look at the slightest beauty of others, but he can send the ball to his teammates who run out of the open space."
"Yes, it seems that we are heroes and have a similar view!" Yu Jia nodded with a smile.
"I'm not a hero, Teacher Yu is a hero, Teacher Yu is a hero."
"Okay, we are not heroes, Wu Feng is our heroes." Yu Jia smiled awkwardly.
With offense and defense, Cork Hinrich quickly passed the ball through half.
Cork Hinrich looked at Wu Feng who was waiting for the three-point line, and his face was solemn.
The Wizards' offensive pace was not fast, and Cork Hinrich's several breakthroughs were delayed. When the ball reached Al Thorton's hands, the offensive time was only six seconds left.
Seeing that the Wizards' offensive time was not long, after Al Thorton received the ball, he decisively controlled the ball and rushed towards the inside. Gerald Wallace immediately stepped forward to defend closely, using his slender upper arm to firmly block Al Thorton's cutting direction.
Al Thorton's basic skills are quite solid, there are threats outside the three-point line, and the stability of mid-range shots is also pretty good. However, under the fierce defense of Gerald Wallace, his shooting ended in failure.
"Clang", the basketball bounced high.
Two big players of the Wizards jumped up to grab rebounds at the same time, and Dwight Howard, who was sandwiched in the middle, finally got the space to take off, but under the clamping of the two big players, his chance of grabbing defensive rebounds was very low.
Moreover, due to physical strength, Dwight Howard did not perform well in this game, especially in terms of rebounding protection.
Philip Sanders stood on the sidelines with his arms held, and the old god watched the game. He has always been very relieved about the team's offensive rebounds. This season, the Wizards have always been in the top six in the league in offensive rebounds. Javille McGee and Andre Bletcher are both good rebounders, and even Yi Jianlian's ability to compete for rebounds this season has improved a lot.
All summer, Yi Jianlian trained in the United States. After hard closed training, Yi Jianlian's upper limb strength was obviously much stronger than last season, which is also an important reason for his improvement in rebounding ability this season.
Another reason is that Yi Jianlian's style of playing this season has changed a lot compared to last season. This season, he has played more in the inside, so there are naturally more rebounds.
Just when the Wizards players thought this offensive rebound was inevitable, the next scene surprised them very much.
They seemed to have forgotten why Dwight Howard was called the "Warcraft" and the explosive power of Dwight Howard. The "Warcraft" clenched his teeth, and his veins swelled up on his face, and then came to the front and got in front of the rebound. What was even more surprising was that Dwight Howard did not grab the rebound tightly, but used his fingers to directly dial the ball out of the air.
The moment Dwight Howard touched the ball with his finger, he knew that the possibility of protecting the rebound was not very high. Even if he could take the rebound, he would probably fall into the double-team of two opponents, and it would be difficult to hand over the ball. So it would be better to fan the ball out directly. He believed that his teammates could easily receive the ball.
Unfortunately, Dwight Howard's strength was a little stronger, the ball landed a little far and was almost about to fly out of the sideline.
Seeing that the basketball was about to fly out of the sideline, Wu Feng chased after him like lightning and then rushed. The moment the ball flew out of the sideline, Wu Feng picked up the ball, then shook his hand, and the ball flew over half of the court and entered Vince Carter's hands.
Before the Wizards players could return to defense, Vince Carter easily showed off a one-handed windmill dunk.
"It's so awesome, so awesome. Wu Feng actually saved the ball and completed such an excellent defensive counterattack." Yang Yi clapped and cheered.
Yu Jia also nodded excitedly, "This ball can definitely be the five best balls today. Wu Feng is really desperate and rescued the ball at the risk."
"Well, Wu Feng can be said to be the most desperate player of the Magic. Even Howard and Wallace do not have the fighting spirit of Wu Feng." Yang Yi also echoed.
Philip Sanders sighed and asked for a pause.
Wu Feng's fighting will manifest in the ball just now made him deeply admire. The reason why he sighed was that he sighed that there was no such player here.
"Maybe John is such a player." Philip Sanders comforted himself in his heart.
Dwight Howard hugged Wu Feng with one hand and touched Wu Feng's head with the other. Several guys returned to the Magic's rest area while talking and laughing.
On the big screen of the Mic Center Arena, Wu Feng just flew to save the ball and assisted Vince Carter to dunk it. Many home fans were making noise, as if discussing Wu Feng.
"Excellently done." As soon as Wu Feng came back, Stan Van Gundy handed him a towel, then reached out and touched Wu Feng's head.
Other players of the Magic looked at Wu Feng with jealousy. It was a very shameful thing to make Stan Van Gundy take the initiative to hand over the towel.
As if you saw what these guys were thinking, Stan Van Gundy laughed: "If you bastards want to enjoy this kind of treatment, they will play basketball like Wu Feng."
After hearing Stan Van Gundy's words, the Magic players led by Chris Duhon immediately shouted: "Boss, this is what you said! In the future, we will play like this in the game, so you have to hand us a towel!"
Stan Van Gundy stretched out his foot and wanted to kick Chris Du Hong, but this guy avoided it. The Magic team's rest area burst into laughter and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.
"Okay, let's not play anymore, let's say something important." Stan Van Gundy held back his smile and said to Wu Feng and others: "The schedule is quite unfavorable to us, and our physical strength is very troubled. But..."
Stan Van Gundytoned for a moment and continued.
“We want to let the assholes who are 'worrying' about our physical strength know that we are a very durable team.”
Chapter completed!
