My vision is different

Chapter 213 Defeating the Clippers
The moment the final game sounded, the players of both sides hurriedly left the Consec Arena. The players who came back to their senses knew the consequences of the fight. Although it did not cause any major impact, this "group" incident , where it is placed is a big deal.

Lin Shaojie in the locker room looked at the pitiful Hibbert. At this time, he didn't have the "spirited spirit" he had on the field before, and his eyes that wanted to kill were gone.

From the perspective of pure friendship between teammates, Lin Shaojie's handling was too cold-blooded. Although he terminated the fight between the two sides, he did not rush to help his teammates immediately.

Look at Lance and the others, this is the performance of the real iron buddies.

If someone jumped out and made irresponsible remarks in the locker room at this time, it might cause quite a disturbance, but Lin Shaojie, who was the last to enter the locker room, had no expression on his face. I can't figure out how he feels at all.

"Roy (Hibert) did a great job and I knew he wanted to help Danny (Granger)."

Lin Shaojie's words let everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and Hibbert's expression was much better.

"but."

Everyone's emotions became tense again, and between the tension and tension, everyone changed accordingly.

Lin Shaojie reached out and patted Hibbert on the shoulder lightly.

"There are on-court solutions on the court. You are our inside core. You don't need to do things like Duizi. At critical moments, you have to stand on the court instead of watching our games in the locker room like now. .

Can you understand? "

Lin Shaojie's words made Hibbert a little moved, although at that moment he had a grievance in his heart, after all, Curry is such a "fragile" guy, he knows to rush over to hug him, so that his teammates can attack him.

With Lin Shaojie's fighting power, he would definitely be able to easily imprison David Lee.

But what about Lin Shaojie?He didn't come over to help in the first time.

Of course, what he did in the end was not wrong at all. He divided the two parties who wanted to fight, which is the most correct way.

But in his heart, Hibbert preferred Lin Shaojie who was so angry, the guy who was tough with Garnett.

Of course, it's too late to say anything now, and now Hibbert is a little worried about what kind of punishment he will accept as the instigator of this incident.

"Don't worry, I'll call Larry (Bird) first!"

Lin Shaojie comforted Hibbert, and just when he was about to contact the boss of the team, his phone rang first.

Picking up the phone, Lin Shaojie stepped aside and responded in a low voice.

"Larry, yes, I am.
Their performance is very good. I don't want the situation to escalate. Roy is a good guy. He is protecting Danny. David Lee's action is a bit big. We all know that Danny has not recovered for a long time.

Of course, he is our teammate, and of course I am willing to protect him.

Okay, thanks Larry, I'll pass that on to Roy."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Shaojie looked at the eager eyes of the players and made an "OK" gesture.

"Larry will go and explain the incident to the uniforms, there will be punishment, but he will do his best."

Lin Shaojie's words reassured Hibbert a little.

Although they are all players who have survived in the league for many years, many players are still a little confused about the penalty standards of the league's uniform team.

Sometimes an event that seemed ferocious was dismissed lightly; sometimes the uniform team did something grand that didn't seem serious.

Although Lin Shaojie has not been in the industry for a long time, he has already learned the rules.

Although today's game looked chaotic and exciting, everything happened on the court.

It was just arguing and shoving, nothing serious happened, and Hibbert was the only one who was sent off in the end.

Compared with those games where several players were sent off at every turn, can this be a problem?

So even without Larry Bird, Lin Shaojie felt that the matter shouldn't be a big deal, not to mention that now that Larry Bird came forward, the matter should be handled more properly.

Hibbert can be suspended for up to two or three games. As for the others, one game suspension?Still fined.

Anyway, after so many years, the Pacers have been a team with a criminal record, but under the so-called criminal record, all the players have been replaced, so this kind of criminal record is only on those players. Already changed blood.

This matter is over, don't mention it again!
When Curry left Indianapolis, he called Lin Shaojie. The two parties had agreed to meet again after the game, but this fight was over. As for the punishment after the game, who knows what will happen!

Lin Shaojie expressed his understanding, and the two parties will meet again when they have time.

Curry's phone was hung up on the front foot, and Kobe's phone call followed.

"Lynn, what a cool performance you did, you stopped a catastrophe, that's great for the team."

Kobe said exaggeratedly.

"I heard a lot of insincere things from your words. If you have something to say, just say it. I don't think it's necessary to beat around the bush like this!"

Lin Shaojie's words made Kobe on the other end of the phone a little embarrassed, just slightly embarrassed!
In addition to touting his performance on the court, Kobe focused on things about Warcraft.

During the turbulent changes at the top of the Lakers, Kubchak, the general manager, actually said: "Howard is the future of the Lakers."

Let's see how Warcraft responded when he heard this.

"I feel the same way. I have talked to Mitch (Kubchak) many times. Since I entered this team, I have not changed. My goal has always been this. Not only that, I also want to win. The championship, this season is difficult, but we still have a chance.

As for staying in the team this summer, I can't control it. "

Such remarks are not very lethal to Kobe. If you don’t say the last sentence, Kobe may think that Howard is a model of both being and standing, but if you don’t sign the key contract extension, isn’t it bullshit to say these things!
The two parties flattered each other at this time, which was inexplicable.

Kobe's emotional intelligence is not high, but I really don't like such players.In addition, the little brother Chris Paul in the same city is not sure if he is drifting.

Anyway, as Kobe recently focused on defense and assists, Paul actually replied when facing an interview.

"Does it matter to me how he plays? I don't care at all, I just care that we win."

I am!

Kobe almost vomited blood when he said a word, but fortunately he didn't force Paul to join the Lakers. With this character, he wanted to rebel!

The record of the Lakers this season is not very good. The Clippers are a bit strong, but Los Angeles belongs to the Lakers. You are a player who has not been here for a long time. How dare you say that!
"So... you mean, our next round of competition"

"Of course, you will meet the Clippers at home in the next round. I think the Clippers need to accept a little punishment."

Ok!

Don't think that only LeBron can do things like a brotherhood, Kobe can do it, and Lin Shaojie can do it too!
What can Lin Shaojie do with everything he received, of course it will be the same.

As the first game in March, the Pacers at home never had to worry about whether they would be taught to be human by the Clippers, but with today's fight
The outside world's expectations for the Pacers may not be too optimistic. Everything depends on how the league's top management handles it.

The next day, everyone who was still in training received news from the league that Hibbert was suspended for two games and the other players were fined $[-]. Nothing!
After receiving the confirmation, Hibbert turned into a happy beast, and his happy voice could be heard in the training hall.

It's just two games, one against the powerful Clippers in the Western Conference, and one against the Raptors.

Yes, this season's Clippers are the powerhouses in the Western Conference, riding on the Lakers' heads abruptly in Los Angeles.

Entering March, the full month's schedule is very friendly to the Pacers. Don't look at nine away games in [-] games, but compared to the Heat's consecutive back-to-backs, the Pacers who have only one back-to-back game are undoubtedly lucky.

The Clippers also won two consecutive victories in the previous games. Although there is a gap in the records of the two sides, Chris Paul is also considered one of the few teams in the league. He has not yet had a head-on collision with Lin Shaojie. team.

So on the first day, the Conseco Arena was full of excitement.

A group of "spies" who came to watch the game expressed their displeasure. The league's punishment is too weak. If all the players who participated in the game can be punished, they may even be punished for a few more games.

Now only Hibbert is being punished, which really doesn't matter.

What about West?

What about Lance?
Tens of thousands of dollars are nothing to these players, it doesn't hurt or itch!
In this game, the Pacers sent Mahinmi at the center position to replace Hibbert.The Clippers are Paul, Griffin, Jordan, Butler, and Billups.

Well, this lineup is really not bad, and the configuration is very good.

Especially Chris Paul, his performance this season, if not for the sudden emergence of Lin Shaojie, his performance would be absolutely eye-catching.

But it is still the old saying that the stars cannot shine during the day.

Excluding this point, the Clippers also have a certain advantage in the interior. The combination of West and Mahinmi is not as attractive as the combination of Jordan and Griffin.

Paul is by no means just a player who only relies on his brain to play. Although his height is average, his talent is not bad, his scoring ability is not bad, and he is relentless at critical moments.

If there is anything lacking compared to the Pacers' No. 13, the most important thing is physical talent and explosive scoring ability.

This is also recognized by everyone. They are all players with high golf intelligence, but it is a pity that they have never met head-on.

In this game, is the Pacers' No. 13 strong suppression, or the Clippers' Paul with rich experience and sophisticated methods!
Everyone is waiting and watching.

The warm-up before the start of the game did not have too close communication between the two sides, it was a feeling of fast in and fast out.

In fact, Chris Paul has been observing Lin Shaojie since his debut. He was keen on it as early as when LeBron called the Brotherhood.

After all, the positions of the two sides overlap, just like the competition between him and Rondo back then, they never get in touch with each other!
But now look, Rondo is reimbursed for the season, and anyone who fights with my current number one point guard-Paul will not end well.

Take a closer look, the Pacers' rookie is no worse than himself at home!

It's just that he made a few shots in a pretentious manner during the season, and the fans exclaimed loudly in embarrassment!
Reminiscent of his title of champion of the three-point contest, that guy's aim is really accurate!

When the game started, in the jump ball, the Clippers got the ball first, and Paul was careful to pay attention to the opponent's steals as soon as he got the ball.

But Paul found that it was not Lynn who was guarding him, but George Hill. This is a bit contemptuous!

Paul, who dribbled the ball through the half court, completed a quick pass, and Griffin received the pass in mid-air. The first ball in the opening game was about to perform an aerial slam dunk at the Consec Arena, arrogant!
But who would have thought that Paul George was the first to complete the interference. Griffin in the air did not receive the pass smoothly. The basketball that was picked up flew a little far, and was snatched by No. 13 of the Pacers.

"Why is he in that position?"

Chris Paul was a little puzzled, and he also found that No. 13 of the Pacers did not hold the ball, but quickly handed the ball to George Hill, and ran towards the Clippers' half. Are you going to play off the ball?

Chris Paul guessed!
In fact, many teams are facing this problem. If a player like Lin Shaojie plays off the ball, who will follow up and defend? After much deliberation, the most suitable one is actually Hamilton.

But how old is Hamilton now, can other players match even if they have such physical reserves, talent, mentality, spirit, etc.!
Many people know that Lin Shaojie, who mainly plays off the ball, is a boring but efficient scoring machine, a scary kind.

Sure enough, George Hill, who dribbled across the half court, passed the basketball to Lin Shaojie immediately, and Chris Paul couldn't keep up with the opponent's passing speed.

And the other Paul George even took the initiative to make a rare screen for Lin Shaojie, allowing the latter to get rid of the defender smoothly, and then cut inside to face Griffin's defense.

After the slightly reckless Griffin took off, he found that Lin Shaojie broke through and scored the ball at a critical moment, as if he was afraid of him.

In this way, Mahinmi scored a simple dunk, and when he landed, he gave a high-five to the big guys in the team to celebrate.

"Good job, Ian (Masinmi)!"

Chris Paul found that if he wanted to be like Lin Shaojie, he might not be able to do such simplicity, and he might be more fancy.

When it was the Clippers' turn to attack, Chris repeated the old trick again, trying to beat Griffin, but facing Mahinmi and West, Griffin was a little difficult.

And Paul George's defensive deterrent ability inside the three-point line is not small, and the Clippers' offense at the beginning was not smooth.

Fortunately, Chris Paul's adjustments are timely, and he is constantly cutting inside to find opportunities, either by himself or by passing the ball.

Halfway through the first quarter, the Clippers trailed the Pacers by a narrow margin.

14 is better than 16
The two sides seem to fight back and forth, but in terms of simplicity and efficiency, the Pacers still give people a clear tactical thinking.

On the Clippers side, Chris Paul, as the commander, is unshakable. The Clippers' talent on the court blames their ball-holding singles ability for not being as strong as expected.

The inside line, which is obviously more dominant, seems to have not exerted its due strength. I don't know if the players are a little uncomfortable in the Conseco Arena.

At least Jordan and Griffin really didn't have any outstanding performances. On the whole, the Clippers didn't play as smoothly as the Pacers, but it's okay, at least they have rules.

Lin Shaojie didn't have any defensive tactics against Paul, and seemed to give his opponent a lot of opportunities.

Although Chris Paul's defensive strength is not weak, many players know that Paul's defense is not clean at all, and there are many small moves. Without these, his threat on the defensive end will drop a lot.

On the contrary, Lin Shaojie gave a very good impression to many players in defense. LeBron did not make irresponsible remarks in this regard. The Pacers rookie relies on hard power to defend.

So many people want to see the head-on collision of these two.

After half a quarter of the game, Lin Shaojie knew it well. No matter how much he watched outside the court, it was not as real as this half of the game.

No wonder the Clippers, who won a brilliant record in December, are now third in the West.

Paul's strength is indeed good, but the running-in in the team is not as good as expected!

The Pacers quickly made adjustments. The positions of Lin Shaojie and George Hill were switched, and the meeting between Chris Paul and the Pacers rookie was officially staged!

Chris has thought about many situations, and he has heard many.But relying on his height, he broke into the NBA and achieved his current results.

Although there is no champion, Chris Paul is also recognized as a big bull in the relevant position.

How powerful is this "big bull"?One of the best in the active game, of course, with a rookie entering the league, now he is either the second or the third!

Thinking back in London, the boy opposite left a deep impression on me.

He knew that the opponent's talent was very good, LeBron didn't say it, but it was very obvious, Wade also said that Anthony made no secret of his recognition of this rookie's strength!
So when Chris was attacking with the ball, he took the initiative to speak when he met on the official NBA court.

"I heard that you are 'military training' every teammate of the national team?"

"Who said that?"

Lin Shaojie asked back.

"That's what everyone said, you did a great job! But it's a pity that you met me."

Chris Paul, who is changing his footsteps quickly, wants to make a breakthrough, but compared to last year, the rookie at this moment has rich experience, and he doesn't eat his fake moves at all, showing a calm and composed momentum.

When Chris wanted to break through, he found that the change of direction he was proud of did not work at all, and the steps under his feet were slightly jerky, and the opponent was not only defending with his hands.

Every part of the body, including the body and feet, is defending. If you move slower, you will definitely be intercepted by your opponent.

Steal?

Chris Paul just remembered that the rookie on the opposite side is not only the current assist leader, but also the steal leader this season!
Data can blind people's eyes!
In fact, for Lin Shaojie, it is obviously difficult to steal the ball from Chris Paul's hands.

Paul is far more sophisticated than Irving. The former knows his steal threat, so he presses the ball very low. But for Lin Shaojie, he doesn't necessarily need a steal. Blocking Chris's shooting and passing is enough.

Chris Paul knows that he has no hope of breaking through, and now for him, the only way is to pass the ball.

But that guy's body and arms completely blocked his vision, and the feeling of being "blinded" was as frightening as if he couldn't see the way to the future.

As far as the line of sight is concerned, they are all covered by the opponent's figure.

The stature that is not obvious from the outside is too much pressure on the court. If there is no one to respond, it is impossible for Paul to complete a high-quality pass!
"Chris!"

Hearing the voice from his teammates and sending the basketball away, Chris Paul was relieved.

At the critical moment, Billups was still strong. After the latter completed the response, he made a quick shot and scored 2 points for the visiting team.

It was at this critical moment that the veteran showed his due value.

But the Clippers, who were originally well-organized, became a tactic that relied entirely on the players' personal strength in subsequent games. No, there was no tactic.

Lin Shaojie's blockade of Chris Paul only allowed the opponent to play a good half of the quarter. In the rest of the first quarter, Chris Paul only got one assist.

As for scoring, don't think about it for now. The huge gap in strength and height between the two sides made Chris Paul think of his fear of facing Wade and Deron when he first entered the league.

"Is he so perverted?"

Until the end of the second quarter, Chris Paul couldn't believe it.In such a long time, he only scored 8 points and 4 assists.

The score on the field also came to 40 to 27. The 13-point gap made the Clippers look passive.

Let's look at the substitutes of the two sides. Crawford of the Clippers doesn't look fancy, but his scoring efficiency is really high!
Caron Butler, a small forward, is really stretching his hips. He has only made one goal so far, wasting Chris's assists in vain.

It is really that this "Butler" played too inefficiently when facing Paul George.

Look at Danny Granger, the former "big brother" of the Pacers. He and Butler can be said to be rivals in chess and will meet good talents.

It's been almost ten minutes since he played, and he only made two shots. However, his teammates are very supportive of him. Whether it is a substitute player or a main force like George Hill, as long as Danny Granger has a chance, everyone will be happy. Skimpy on passing.

Thinking of the previous scene against the Pistons, the Pacers grabbed rebounds so fiercely that they almost lost the game with so many more rebounds than their opponents. The culprit of the Pacers is the former "Son of Indian City."

In this game, Granger's scoring efficiency was indeed not very good.

After the halftime, Danny Granger, who was sitting in the locker room, spoke proactively as he watched the two sides tie the score again.

"I'll take a break in the second half."

"Don't worry, the Clippers are average."

Lin Shaojie comforted: "Except for Chris (Paul) and Jamal (Crawford), the performance of other players is very average, and so is Blake (Griffin). Worry."

If one game gave Danny Granger a chance to practice, but up to now, he has had three games.

Granger was deeply moved by the respect shown by the Pacers to him from top to bottom, even Lin Shaojie, a popular fried chicken, did things that were impeccable.

"Okay! I'll do my best!"

Granger said helplessly.

Feeling this thing is really too mysterious.

"In the second half you can try to stand with David (West), it's closer to the basket."

Lin Shaojie thought for a while and said, "Me and Paul (George) will attract players. You must have a good chance. Give it a try."

In the second half, players like Danny Granger actually tried to play as a power forward. Although it gave people a clumsy feeling, their scoring efficiency immediately increased.

Mahinmi is completely a sapper, and he is fighting for Granger's living space under the basket.

George Hill, who was sitting off the court, could only lament, why is it him again!

As the opponent, Chris Paul found that in the first half, he only invested energy in defense, mainly playing Lin Shaojie without the ball, and his scoring efficiency was not high. The role of "bearing" is obvious.

But going straight to the inside in the second half, the lethality was too great.

It is impossible for Griffin and Jordan to rush to the three-point line for a long time. The paint area is their world, and other Clippers players can't limit the No. 13 at all!
Even Chris Paul felt his scalp tingling.

Taller stature gives opponents an excellent line of sight;

The faster speed gave him a free breakthrough and chicness when he got rid of the defense;

The soft touch is a sharp weapon for projection
bounce
power
It was only when the two began to head-to-head on the court that Chris Paul began to appreciate the horror of this rookie.

The most desperate thing was that the rookie was feeding Danny Granger with the mentality of playing them.

Facing Griffin and Jordan's interior defense, he will always turn seemingly dunk opportunities into assists at the last moment.

Even David West, who stood beside Granger, benefited a lot from it.

Granger only scored 2 goals in the first half, and hit 4 goals one after another in the third quarter.

Until the end of the field, the player who returned from injury and looked for touch scored 14 points, all of which were fed by hand.

At that moment, Griffin looked at Chris Paul!

"Brother, can I also enjoy such a game?"

"Of course. No more!"

If we say that in the third quarter, the Pacers' main force took Granger to play together, the "low efficiency" scoring did not widen the gap between the two sides.

Then in the fourth quarter of the game, Granger's end was considered to have released a half-complete Pacer, which was fatal to the Clippers.

Lin Shaojie returned to the state of playing without the ball in the first quarter, but this time he is not a "bearing," but a crucial fort.

Catch and shoot, completely ignoring the defense.

No matter where it is.

There was a ball Chris Paul was almost completely hanging on his arm, but Lin Shaojie, who jumped in the air to complete the change of hands, abruptly completed the final shot with one hand.

Chris Paul, who is like a koala, made a technical foul and was given a big gift package.

At that moment, the top three point guards in the league knew that it was impossible to win this game.

When the final whistle sounded, Chris Paul could only say one thing to LeBron.

"I'm sorry, little emperor! Facing Lin En at this moment, I can't do it."

Lin Shaojie smiled slightly, he believed that Kobe would see all this.

The Clippers, a powerhouse in the Western Conference, were unable to win the Pacers at Conseco Arena. The Pacers, who have only lost one game at home this season, made a good start in March!
In terms of statistics, Lin Shaojie has started to climb up step by step.
