Chapter 509
The Wizards fell behind at halftime, and the best chance to overtake was not fully grasped.

In the second half, it became even more difficult.

When Qin Fei feels hot, the Warriors' offensive end is even more terrifying. The Wizards have almost no way to defend the current Warriors. Not only Qin Fei can score, but O'Neal, Billups and others all scored in the third quarter.

With 4 minutes and 34 seconds left in the third quarter, the Warriors entered the rotation time.

Qin Fei remained on the field.

At this time, the Wizards seemed to accept their fate and replaced Jordan.

This is not considered a normal rotation.

Although Jordan is not young, he plays like a young man every night, playing at least 35 minutes. Generally, he will play more than 10 minutes in the third quarter of the game.

Today is considered to be a relatively early time to go down.

Qin Fei was also polite, and scored two more goals during this period.

At the end of the third quarter, Qin Fei made a breakthrough and passed the ball to Ginobili who was ambushing at 45 degrees.

Ginobili received a pass from Qin Fei, and there was almost no one in front of him. He bumped his feet and shot a jumper.

As soon as the shot was made, the opponent's defensive player was in place. Although he didn't have a chance to defend, he still rushed up and knocked Ginobili down.

The referee blew his whistle.

"foul!"

The referee stretched out three fingers at the same time, looked up, and saw that the basketball just pierced through the net.

"Shh!"

The three-pointer is valid, and there will be an additional penalty!
Three plus one?

Qin Fei showed joy, and ran over immediately, stretching out his hands to pull Ginobili who fell to the ground.

Manu Ginobili scored this goal, and I am very excited personally.

He was going to get up by himself, but now that Qin Fei came to pull him, he took advantage of the opportunity to stand up with the help of Qin Fei's hand.

"Don't get up by yourself. When you fall on the floor, I will definitely come and pull you."

Qin Fei uttered his famous words again, which moved Ginobili and felt the deep team culture.

Ginobili walked to the free throw line, and the audience cheered and applauded.

Ginobili also made a free throw.

Ginobili's creativity is amazing. Unlike other players, his advantage lies in this. That's why he was able to enter Carlisle's heart and quickly obtained a relatively stable playing time.

Qin Fei stood outside the three-point line, saw that Ginobili was about to make a free throw, and retreated to his own half to show his trust in him.

"Haha, this guy."

Jordan looked at Qin Fei's movements and thought of one of his former teammates.

It seems that no matter where you are, liking to pretend is a common feature of human beings.

There will be more or less, but some people pretend to be more, and some people pretend to be less.

After Ginobili made a free throw, the Warriors extended their lead to double digits.

In the following dead ball time, Qin Fei was replaced and rested.

I thought this game was over, but I didn't expect that the Wizards' substitutes were really fierce today.

Not long after Qin Fei started to leave the court, the Wizards' substitutes broke out again. They scored fast breaks, three-pointers, and mid-range shots. From the end of the third quarter to the beginning of the fourth quarter, they played a wave of 12-3 spurts, chasing the score to only 1 point.

Man, Carlisle is blown away.

But other than calling a timeout to continue adjustments, he has no good solution.

Carlisle can only change the lineup and let the main players, such as Billups and O'Neal, play first, so as to improve the team's unfavorable substitute offense.

The two teams became very anxious in the fourth quarter.

It was useless to change the lineup. The Wizards dragged the game into a suspenseful stage by relying on all the soldiers, and then Jordan reappeared.

Qin Fei also stepped onto the stage at the same time.

Seeing that he had a chance to win against the Warriors, who were number one in the league, Jordan also became serious, fighting for every ball.

He felt good. After coming up in the fourth quarter, he used the screen to get rid of Qin Fei's defense. He continuously caught the ball and completed mid-range fadeaway jumpers.

"Help me fix it."

Qin Fei and Jermaine O'Neal said that after Qin Fei was blocked just now, Jermaine O'Neal did not help Qin Fei to fill in, allowing Jordan to get an excellent shooting space.

"Continue to press the defense and play more aggressively."

Qin Fei said to Artest in this way that Artest's defense against Hamilton today was mediocre. Hamilton got some shots by running continuously.

"When necessary, we can switch defenses between the two of us."

Against Jordan today, Qin Fei was deliberately arranged. If it was normal, Carlisle would have arranged for Artest to guard Jordan.

Artest and Qin Fei's defenses have their own characteristics. Artest is actually more suitable for defending ball-handling players rather than off-ball scorers.

Artest nodded after listening to Qin Fei's words, expressing his understanding.

In the final quarter of the game, the two teams fell into a stage of intense anxiety.

With 2 minutes left in the game, Qin Fei had scored a game-high 40 points, but the team only led the Wizards by 2 points.

In the next round, Hamilton received Jordan's point and hit the mid-range, helping the Wizards tenaciously equalize the score.

"That's fine too."

The two teams tied 103 to 103, and the audience became nervous watching it.

"Clap clap clap~"

The basketball was flapping on the floor, the Warriors were attacking, and Billups was calling from the outside.

Qin Fei came out to catch the ball, and Jordan chased and defended Qin Fei. It was almost the same as the Wizards' tactics just now, but the Wizards and Warriors had different defensive systems.

As soon as Qin Fei took the ball, the defensive center of gravity shifted immediately, and there were especially many players on the strong side holding the ball.

Qin Fei didn't pass the ball immediately, but chose to break through with the ball and walk in under the cover.

He was so fast that the basketball only slapped on the ground and bounced back into his hands.

Then he jumped with both feet, raised his hand after landing, and shook the defender in the penalty area.

"careful!"

Jordan appeared in front of O'Neal at this time, trying to block the ball from Qin Fei.

Qin Fei originally wanted to pass to O'Neal, but he reacted quickly. Seeing Jordan coming to intercept, he immediately changed the pass route and passed it to Artest on the weak side.

Artest is almost wide open, a three-point jumper shot!
偏出
Jarhi Dee White gets the rebound.

The Wizards got the chance to overtake the score.

The cheering of the Warriors at home has subsided, and it is rare this season that the winner has not been determined until the last minute.

So they held their breath and waited for the next development.

The Wizards didn't call a timeout. Jordan stretched out his long arms and asked for the ball in the low post. Qin Fei waved his hand, signaling his teammates not to come over to double-team, and defended Jordan one-on-one.

Facing Qin Fei's defense, Jordan turned his back and half-turned, feinted and shot a jump shot from the bottom line.

Qin Fei pounced, his defensive posture was like a straight javelin, and his big hand was about to block Jordan's shot.

Qiao Dan didn't change his face, and shot according to the original rhythm, just passing Qin Fei's fingertips a little.

"Shh!"

The basketball went into the net hollow!

At the critical moment, Jordan hit a key mid-range jumper!

The fans lost their voices, and the host of the broadcast also applauded Jordan's goal.

"This is Michael Jordan, the strongest sign in the league, the god of basketball!"

After scoring the goal, Jordan spread his hands and taunted Qin Fei: "Is this the defense? You let me score too easily."

Qin Fei sneered and didn't speak, because Carlisle called timeout at this time.

At this time, the Warriors were 103 points behind the Wizards 105 to 2.

The timeout ended and the Warriors served in the backcourt.

Billups, the dribbling tool man, dribbled the ball across the half court, used his back to avoid the opponent's steal, and then passed it directly to Qin Fei, who was at the 45-degree position at the top of the arc.

At this time, the Warriors' tactic is to open up space and give Qin Fei a one-on-one chance.

The Wizards chose zone defense. Qin Fei looked up and saw that there were people on the road ahead.

"Michael, I'm going to shoot a three-pointer, guess you can defend it?"

Qin Fei spoke in response to Jordan's trash talk just now.

Qiao Dan already knew that Qin Fei had a bad mouth. If he had been in the past, he would have been furious and furious. Now there is no wave in his heart, but in fact, there is also a little bit of powerless sadness.

Qin Fei held the ball with one hand, put the ball behind his back, spread his feet apart, and kept chatting with Jordan first.

After chatting for almost ten seconds, he retracted the ball to his waist and prepared to attack with a tentative step.

The tentative attack is one of Qin Fei's best offensive methods. Qiao Dan felt that Qin Fei was coming, so he didn't speak any more, lowered his center of gravity, and prepared to defend him with all his strength.

Although he was well prepared, when Qin Fei suddenly started, Jordan still felt the rushing talent.

It's too fast, Qin Fei's first step speed is by no means below his peak.

In this first breakthrough, Qin Fei took his right foot and seemed to be breaking through from the bottom line on the left side, dribbling the ball with his non-dominant left hand, avoiding Jordan's defensive side.

When Qin Fei broke through with the dribble, his center of gravity was very low, and when the basketball bounced off for the second time, his left foot was about to step forward.

The reason why many amateur players fail to break through is that they do not do well in details. For example, when breaking through, many people like to dribble the ball very high. The higher the ball is dribbled, the longer it takes to bounce back and forth.

For NBA players, the lower the center of gravity, the better when dribbling and breaking through. At the same time, the dribbling strength is much heavier than that of amateur players. The control of basketball is not comparable to that of amateur players.

Jordan saw Qin Fei break through to the left, and wondered if Qin Fei was about to make a fake move.

Such thoughts flashed by, and the body had reacted to follow Qin Fei's defense.

As a result, Qin Fei took two steps, slowed down suddenly, and jumped out with one retreat step. From the two points in the middle distance, he became the attacking range on the three-point line.

Take a three-pointer!

This is also one of Qin Fei's personal scoring characteristics. Gap Hunter has improved his ability to create space. The three-pointer with a step back is better than the normal shooting rhythm, and it is almost bone marrow.

Jordan doesn't use much offensively in terms of retreat, mainly because he is so talented that he can't use this step.

When Qiao Dan saw that Qin Fei retreated to open the space, he already sensed something was wrong in his heart, so he rushed out again.

But it was still a step too late, Qin Fei had already thrown the ball, the basketball was tumbling in the air, and it floated into the hoop, rolling up white net flowers.
"Shh!"

The fans in the Bay Area all raised their hands and cheered the moment the goal was scored.

This is the scene they like to see the most, a three-pointer with a big heart from Qin Fei!
"This is Qin Fei, with complete personal ability."

"Qin Fei is too good. A scorer of this level can obviously rely on his talent to make a living, and he also needs to use his skills to make a retreat three-pointer. Steady."

Qin Fei, who scored the goal, received a note of praise.

106 to 105, the Warriors went ahead by 1 point.

At this time, there are only 48.9 seconds left in the game. After all, the two teams have won and each has a chance to attack.

The Wizards also called a timeout adjustment.

Evenly divided and 1 point behind are two completely different concepts.

Jordan chewed gum and said to Hamilton, "If I pass you the ball later, can you throw that damn basketball in?"

Hamilton was panicked by what Jordan said, and said bravely, "I should be able to do it."

It sounded like he didn't have much confidence. Jordan didn't speak, and he kind of missed Steve Kerr at that time.

After a timeout, the Wizards serve from the sideline.

Qin Fei clings to Jordan's defense and doesn't give Jordan a chance to catch the ball.

Jordan pushed Qin Fei lightly in the crowd, and then he got the space and came out to catch the ball.

For such a small action, the referee turned a blind eye at this time.

Qin Fei was useless, and didn't dare to fall down, but directly chased after him. The two entangled on the three-point line, and then Jordan didn't talk nonsense, and started dribbling directly.

The Wizards are ready to complete the attack within 15 seconds, so even if they miss, there is another chance to attack.

If all attack time is used up this time, there will be no attack rounds to follow.

So in this round of their round, it is necessary to reduce the attack time as much as possible.

It was very difficult for Jordan to carry Qin Fei inside. Fortunately, Jia Xidi White came out to cover for Jordan immediately.

It was impossible for Qin Fei to be blocked every time. He took a step ahead and passed the block flexibly, only being delayed a little.

This one is enough, and Jordan took advantage of the situation to kill the area he wanted to go.

At this time, Hamilton on the other side came out and there was an open chance. Jordan did not pass the ball, but continued to walk towards the baseline. During this period, Qin Fei had already caught up.

"Jordan dribbles, breaks the baseline, pulls up and turns around for a jumper!"

"Qin Fei chased after him, perfect defense!"

Jordan made a sharp backward jump shot, and Qin Fei had already stretched out his long arms in the blink of an eye.

basketball dialed out
Qin Fei, whose body was tense, obviously felt that his fingertips seemed to touch the basketball.

The basketball changed its arc, straightened and then fell.

Qin Fei took off from the spot for the second time and touched the basketball first.

"Covered!"

The audience's exclamation sounded, did not expect that Jordan's back was actually covered?

Jordan's recline is so high and his shot arcs so high that it's almost impossible to block.

Rather than saying that Jordan was overshadowed by Qin Fei this time, it would be better to say that he lost to Time.

The morale of the Wizards plummeted in an instant. Unexpectedly, Jordan, who was worshiped as a god, was blocked by someone.
Jordan didn't expect that the ball would be blocked by Qin Fei. When Qin Fei rushed over, the distance was still far away, but he still underestimated the young man's bounce speed and jumping ability.
There are more than 30 seconds left in the game, and the Warriors still have the ball at this time.

The form of the Wizards is already very unfavorable.

The Warriors were not in a hurry, and dragged the time until the last moment, and it was Qin Fei who held the ball.

Qin Fei also didn't choose to pass the ball. After the Wizards chose to double-team, he directly attacked in advance and made an emergency stop jump shot from a high position.

No shot, the basketball went out of the frame.

In the key rebound competition, Big Ben has the upper hand.

White concentrated his intelligence and set aside the ball with one hand.

In the second scramble, Big Ben knocked the ball out of the baseline, giving the Wizards the last chance to attack.

At this time, there were only 3.8 seconds left in the game, and the Wizards had very little offensive time left.

The drama arranged by Doug Collins must be Jordan's first choice and Hamilton's second choice.

So the Warriors also know this and defend these two people heavily.

Because the Warriors only lead by 1 point, the defense is not so easy to defend, but the main defense must be the mid-range and the basket. Carlisle feels that the Wizards will definitely not choose a three-pointer tactic.

Sure enough, after the timeout came back, the Wizards chose to arrange a double screen for Jordan.

The Warriors heavily guarded Jordan. After Qin Fei was blocked, he chased Hamilton immediately, while Artest chose to chase Jordan. The two made substitutions in a tacit understanding.

Jordan received the ball, had no space, and returned it to Hamilton who ran out.

Hamilton took the ball and made a fake shot with 1.5 seconds left.

As a result, Qin Fei didn't jump up, just stuck to it, and controlled his body with perfect judgment.

"What kind of reflexes is this?"

The Wizards players were stunned.

Thinking in another way, if they were going to defend this ball, they would definitely choose to take off. After all, it was the last shot, and they dare not not jump.

However, Qin Fei just didn't take off and moved over to block all of Hamilton's space.

When Hamilton made another strong shot for the second time, Qin Fei jumped up and interfered, making it impossible for him to make a shot.

"Beep-"

The red light is on for the end of the game.

Hamilton bowed his head in frustration.

Jordan didn't want to comfort his teammates, his face was ugly, and after greeting Qin Fei, he turned his head and left the court.

The fans at the scene celebrated the victory, and the Warriors' record before the All-Star Game was so good that it exploded.

Qin Fei scored 43 points, but the victory was due to two key defenses at the end of the game, one block and one serious interference, which made the Wizards' mentality explode.

Qin Fei raised his arms and high-fived his teammates one by one in celebration.

Wizards head coach Doug Collins also hugged Qin Fei.

After the game, Collins said that Qin Fei is a player who can contribute a lot of energy on both offense and defense.

"In the past period of time, we seem to have only noticed Qin Fei's super scoring ability, and ignored his defensive ability to a certain extent, but in fact, Qin Fei's defense is very strong."

"In today's NBA, Qin Fei is the player with the strongest perimeter defense. I think Qin Fei should be able to run for the best defensive player."

Collins' statement surprised many.

Qin Fei is running for the best defensive player?
Before Qin Fei, the best defensive players were outside players, only Payton and Jordan. Could it be that Qin Fei will become the third player to win the best defensive player as an outsider?
