Paul didn't take Chu Feng's response to heart at all.
Through that round of defense, CP3 finally understood what level of player Chu Feng was.
His dribbling ability was above average in the league, but he wasn't particularly strong. He was more confident in his shooting ability, but it was just so-so.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was sent flying, Paul was absolutely confident that he would be able to restrict Chu Feng from scoring!
However, it was precisely this time that he was sent flying that gave Paul experience in defending against Chu Feng!
The offense and defense switched, and the Clippers attacked.
Paul held the ball and quickly crossed the half court. Then, he crossed his steps to shake off the defenders, broke into the three-second zone to meet Vucevi?'s long arm, and threw the ball to score!
65:65, the score of both sides was very tight.
The Orlando Magic attacked. Nelson passed the ball to Vucevic in the paint. Vucevic picked up little Michael and turned to hook the ball.
The players on both sides maintained a high level of efficiency at the beginning of the third quarter. In the middle of the third quarter, the Clippers relied on Griffin's breakthrough layup to make it 2 1. They barely managed to rewrite the score to 78:77, leading by one point!
"The Clippers have finally found a chance to take the lead again!”
"This is due to the strength of the two teams. Although the score is tight, the Clippers seem to be able to handle it easily.”
"On the other hand, the Magic's offensive efficiency is gradually declining. They must let Chu Feng solve the problem alone!”
As the two commentators were analyzing, the Magic had indeed transferred the ball into Chu Feng's hands!
Paul was also very quick to get close to the defense. However, this time, Paul didn't try to steal the ball. He only got close to Chu Feng and gave him pressure to hold the ball!
"Your dribbling is good, but it's far from enough to deal with me.”
Paul continued to spew trash talk as he pressured Chu Feng,""Pass the ball, young man. Otherwise, you will only send out a shot or make a mistake.”
Paul's tone was very calm, as if Chu Feng being guarded by him was a matter of course!
Chu Feng didn't respond immediately. Instead, he held the ball frame and posed a triple threat. The moment his body turned right, he suddenly turned left and accelerated!
It had to be said that Chu Feng's first step was extremely fast. Even Paul had changed from a frontal defense to a sideways defense!
However, the experience of a CP-3 allowed him to block Chu Feng's path of breakthrough. At the same time, he stretched out his right hand and placed it between Chu Feng's hands!
As long as Chu Feng chose to change direction with the cross step, the basketball would definitely hit Paul's palm first!
Stealing was something that happened in an instant!
At the critical moment, Chu Feng suddenly stopped, forcing Paul to once again get close to defend.
However, just as Paul was about to close in on him, Chu Feng once again exerted strength under his feet and started moving at full speed!
Paul couldn't defend in time due to the fast and slow tempo. Coupled with the difference in speed, Chu Feng broke free from defense and charged straight into the three-second zone. He faced the little Michael who had pounced forward and hit a difficult fadeaway jump shot!
"Beep!"
At the same time the ball went in, the referee on the sidelines blew his whistle!
"When little Michael was defending against Chu Feng, his leg movements were clearly observed by the referee!”
The commentator on the sidelines was also watching the situation very carefully."Chu Feng has two valid points and has to stand at the free-throw line!”
Even though Michael Jr. kept complaining to the referee that it was not intentional, the referee still upheld the original verdict.
Chu Feng easily hit the free throw and helped the Orlando Magic regain their two-point lead. At the same time, he also scored his 31st point in a single match!
"As expected, Chu has indeed obtained the second 30 from the 2013 Rookie Class. The first 30 was also obtained by him!”
"In terms of scoring ability alone, Chu is definitely the strongest among the rookies this year. The only question in front of him now is whether he can win!”
The two commentators were full of praise for Chu Feng's scoring ability.
A rookie who could contribute 30 points in the first three games of his career was one of the few in NBA history!
Moreover, Chu Feng was facing the Forest Wolves in the second match. If it wasn't for the fact that the match was too fast, he would have easily reached the 30 level!
With such a terrifying scoring ability, if they won, they would definitely attract another wave of fans!
The Clippers were still relying on their strong individual ability to equalize the score. But when they turned around, Chu Feng relied on his advantage over Paul in strength to push his back to the free-throw line. He flipped over and made another jump shot!
"Your defense is very good."
Chu Feng finally smiled and said,""However, it is far from enough to deal with me.”
