Chapter 1942: 108 Moves to Defeat the Clippers

Ji Feng took the lead with a steal and a light layup. After landing, Ji Feng shook his head and said to Paul who was gnashing his teeth after catching up.

"Is this your tactic? This is the playoffs, guys, come up with something new, otherwise you will be miserable."

"I don't need you to educate me, just take care of yourself." The angry Paul naturally wanted to retaliate, but at this time, he still thought that Ji Feng was trash-talking him, so he didn't care.

It's the playoffs, and it's not normal for them to be sworn enemies in the same city. It's not normal to talk trash. If you don't look at the insiders, Bynum and DeAndre Jordan have been talking about it for a long time. This is the rhythm of the playoffs.

As for Paul, he is now recognized as the number one point guard in the league. Of course, he also has his own playoff rhythm. Since the pass is wrong, he has to fight back!

Dribble, pick and roll, pick and roll again, three pick and rolls!

Paul finally found a gap, and with a desperate dribble from behind, he passed between Blake and Ji Feng, facing the defense, and threw a high ball!

scored.

2-2!

"Ah, this damn playoff!" Paul took a deep breath after scoring, as if he was intoxicated by his wonderful performance.

In fact, this ball is really not bad. The Lakers' defense is very tight. Paul used three pick-and-rolls to complete the breakthrough. Paul also showed his excellent passing and shooting skills. This can be regarded as a response to the mistakes in the first round. .

The demeanor of a general.

However, Paul soon lost his composure, because he discovered that except for his strong attack, other players, especially the insiders, were completely unable to score!

In the second round, Ji Feng and Kobe Bryant picked and rolled, Ji Feng scored suddenly, and Kobe Bryant made a mid-range shot, easily changing the score.

As for the Clippers' offense, Paul wanted to pass the ball this time, but after the pick-and-roll with Butler, Ji Feng directly switched to guard Paul and forced Paul to the wing. Paul had no advantage in facing Ji Feng's sudden attack and could only pass inside. Finn couldn't beat Gasol in isolation, and it was difficult to turn around. He could only give it to Mo Mo at the top of the key, and then forced a three-pointer.

Blacksmithing.

It's really no surprise at all.

The Lakers grabbed the rebound, Bynum shot the ball with one hand, Ji Feng went one-on-three on a fast break, and dunked again to score two points!

After learning the lesson, Paul did not dare to pick and roll with Butler anymore. Although this was their tactic with a high success rate in scoring, it was really uncomfortable for Ji Feng to switch defenses against Paul, so he simply asked the big man to come out for the pick and roll.

However, Blake directly blocked the ball without blocking the opponent, and would not let you pass. Then Gasol lifted up and directly partially pinched one. Paul felt very uncomfortable. He turned around and prepared to force a breakthrough, but was blocked by Ji Feng. In the end, he violated the 24-second violation...

The Lakers turned around and fell into position. Ji Feng broke through and scored the ball. Bynum caught the ball inside and dunked.

8-2.

"The Lakers' tactics are too clear. The Clippers have figured this out." Coach Zhang commented.

Yes, the Lakers' tactics against the Clippers are very clear, which is to block Paul!

This is how the Lakers played in the regular season, but Billups was still there at that time. It was difficult for the Lakers to double-team Paul. If you pinch one, you will miss one. But now, with Billups out of action and unable to appear, the Lakers can double-team like crazy. Paul!

Whenever Paul and Butler pick and roll, let Ji Feng block and immediately switch defenses to follow Paul, forcing him to the wing until he has a chance.

Once Paul picks and rolls with the big man, the opposing Blake or Farmar blocks his passing route to the big man, and the big man inside immediately comes out to block, forming a partial two-on-one.

This tactic was very effective. Paul played alone and failed to pass the ball. This caused the Clippers to completely lose their rhythm.

Yes, this is today's Clippers. The Lakers have a complete offensive and defensive system, ranging from the three aces to the bench. Everyone can pass and shoot. The Clippers' offense is basically based on Paul's pick-and-roll and Griffin's singles. superior.

Once Paul is locked up, the rest of the Clippers' offensive routine is Griffin's sudden attack, Mo Mo's sudden shot, Nick Young's sudden shot, Butler's sudden shot, and the rest of the team's sudden shots.

To put it simply, there are four big words: Xia Ji Ba Da!

Sure enough, Paul was taken care of. He played 4 consecutive singles and scored 2 goals. The efficiency was pretty good. He seemed to feel pretty good tonight, but he couldn't keep playing like this. It was 5 and a half minutes into the first quarter. Apart from him, the only other player on the boat was Jordan who just missed and scored 2 points. Including the 6 points he scored, he only scored 8 points in total.

The Lakers have already scored 17 points. If this continues, the Clippers will completely collapse before halftime!

Therefore, Paul could only try his best to create opportunities for his teammates. It stands to reason that the Lakers were freed by Mo, so he also found ways to pass a lot of balls to Mo.

However, Xiao Mo's decline was so severe that except for shooting, he was unable to complete an effective breakthrough, so the sound of iron strikes could not be heard.

With 14 points in a single quarter, the Clippers were almost prevented from reaching double figures by the Lakers, but the Lakers easily scored 28 points, exactly double the number of points.

"There is no doubt that the Clippers were overwhelmed by the Lakers on both offense and defense in the first quarter. If they cannot adjust well, it will become increasingly difficult for the Clippers to beat them," Yu Jia said.

After adjusting, how to adjust? Everyone knows that Paul is the engine of the Clippers, but only the Lakers can defend like this. But this is the Achilles heel of the Clippers. Once Paul is guarded, the Clippers will lose control. A plate of loose sand.

A piece of loose sand poses almost no threat to the Lakers.

In the second quarter, the Clippers wanted to open up the situation from the inside, especially Griffin, but the Lakers let him go in the mid-range, and I accepted the shot. However, during this period, Griffin's mid-range was still unstable, and he hit The rate is at most 40%, which is already very good.

After another battle in another location, the Lakers' offensive continued unabated. Ji Feng hit consecutive three-pointers on the offensive end to lead the team to an 8-0 victory.

The Lakers lead 45-25.

Afterwards, Griffin, who missed two shots, scored. He hit a jumper after being verbally insulted by Ji Feng. After scoring, Griffin roared to vent his emotions, and Butler, who was being guarded, was also there. A long shot from outside.

It's a pity that the Lakers' offensive continued unabated. After Gasol's continuous strong attack at the basket, Kobe shot from long range, 74-61, declaring that the Clippers' counterattack was in vain.

Butler then hit a three-pointer, but the Lakers went on a 9-0 run. After Ji Feng made two free throws, the score became an exaggerated 59-39.

The Clippers rebounded at the last minute, but with Ji Feng's layup, the Lakers settled the score at 68-44 at the end of the two quarters.

The suspense was ended just like that.

In the second half, the Lakers showed various tricks, but the Clippers were just hammered. Negron, the Clippers coach, gave up in the second half of the third quarter and replaced him with a substitute. The Lakers beat the Clippers 109-89 in the first game. Get off to a good start.

"What a fancy hammer, the Lakers completely crushed this game." Su Qun said after the game.

The advantage of the Lakers is really too great, and the Clippers did not show the intensity they said before the game. Whether it was offense or defense, they were completely fooled by the Lakers.

The MVP of this game still belongs to Ji Feng. On the defensive end, in addition to guarding Butler, he also had to help guard Paul. He did not delay the offense at all. He had everything from inside to outside. He made 14 of 18 shots from the field, and his shooting percentage was astonishing.

He made all 6 3-pointers in the game and 8 of 8 free throws. This shooting rate was a textbook average.

With 42 points, 8 assists and 8 rebounds, Ji Feng contributed perfect statistics.
