My vision is different

"I knew this kid was the smartest."

Popovich murmured in his heart.

Popovich can feel Lin Shaojie's ambivalence. Even in terms of personal approval, the old man Popovich likes and approves from the bottom of his heart.

He once expressed disdain for LeBron, especially the "hexagonal" fighters that the media boasted.

A star who can't even make a three-step layup, you call him a "hexagonal" fighter?
In the heart of the old man Popo, the closest to this title before is Jordan, who has already retired, but his legend is still circulating in the league.

You can attack when you advance, you can defend when you retreat, you can play as a defender, you can play as a forward, it seems that God took a little longer when he created man.

But since then, Popovich has never seen a second one, even Kobe, who he likes, can't reach it.

Few players can take into account explosiveness and endurance, speed and agility, so there must be some emphasis until...
The appearance of Lin Shaojie.

The Pacers' No. 13 seems to be constantly breaking Popovich's perception of basketball players. As the most talented player with strength, speed and other attributes, that player seems to have walked off the football field, not playing American style. The one with protective gear is purely savage rugby, the kind that is more likely to be injured.

That kind of alien should not appear on the basketball court, because all skills and tactics are just clouds in front of absolute power.

Barkley looked at what was happening in front of him and said with a laugh.

"Don't shoot threes!"

Therefore, in the second quarter of the game, the Pacers and Spurs are static and dynamic.

The Spurs, whose focus of attack has shifted from inside to outside, made a good plan. They still want to try the deterrent power of the three-point rain, and they want to chase points as soon as possible to complete the comeback.

Seeing Lin Shaojie, who is less than two meters tall, doing things in the paint, after receiving the ball for the second time, there is no work at all, just shrugging his shoulders and making a fake move that looks like a breakthrough. Dior couldn't stand it, and No. 13 turned around and jumped up instantly. Then dunk with both hands.

The Spurs worked hard and only scored 2 points, and the Pacers also returned one. The success rate of the two sides was similar.

Fortunately, the two stopped for a moment, and Dior took the position first.

The Pacers did a good job and took the lead naturally;

But the Spurs don't want to be in a three-pointer state, and Green is the top priority. Lin Shaojie's defensive shots are not anti-burst, which makes Green very uncomfortable.

Although Lin Shaojie does not have such an exaggerated weight, his strength and speed are really superior.

And the French sports car is the same as Leonard, wanting to double-team Lin Shaojie.

Even those who were taller and stronger than him were inferior in sheer strength.

The Pacers' offense is completely handed over to George Hill and Paul George. Occasionally, West can still pick up the inside, as long as the difference of ten points is guaranteed.

After the start of the second half, Splitter played again, but before playing for 3 minutes, he got two fouls due to Lin Shaojie's continuous attack on the inside and had to leave early. Dior felt that he had not rested enough and was replaced again.

Before Dior's front foot left the ground, the No. 13 flew out like a "jumping whistle" and grabbed the offensive rebound before he made a shot.

"Holy crap, Kawhi Leonard made a bad pass and he put the basketball in the hands of the opponent."

By the end of the first half, the Spurs did not narrow the point difference between the two sides at all, and the cloud of failure once again shrouded the hearts of the Spurs.

In just a few minutes, Bynum scored 9 points in the paint, including a 2+1.

It's just a pity that with this talent and a good hand, he was beaten badly by himself in the end.

Bynum was under [-] years old, and he was able to play in the NBA in [-]. His talent was so outstanding, but so far, the star who was brought into the league with the No. [-] pick by the Lakers has been wasting from beginning to end. talent.

Physical talent is the foundation, technology and mind are the upper limit, without the foundation, there is no root duckweed, and everything else is nonsense.

Diaw just made a surrender gesture with his hands raised, and sent a defensive foul by the way.

So many people in Los Angeles are expecting him to become the next dominant center, but he has fallen like a shooting star. If the Pacers hadn't "taken in," he might have stayed on the Cavaliers' bench at most this year. So for a little while.

In addition, Duncan's strength was beyond the first line, and he quickly adjusted. When Bynum's physical fitness bottomed out, he finally found his own rhythm and completed the counterattack inside.

Bynum, who joined the Pacers, already had a premonition that "the time of death is imminent," so he fought hard, but it turned out that even the Pacers only used him as a substitute among the substitutes.

But it's like a fragile little daughter-in-law meets a village bully, how can a thin woman resist those rough guys who are five big and three thick.

Under the Pacers' internal and external connection, Dior's "smooth" style of play cannot eat Bynum, only Duncan can assist.

The 13th, who was originally quite peaceful, started acting like a demon again.

While the two were bragging about the Pacers' popularity, Lin Shaojie paused slightly in defense when facing Parker's pass, then suddenly changed direction and shifted to the Argentine's side.

Otherwise, with the strength of the two of them, it would be impossible for them to score only that point in the last round.

As the commander on the court, Lin Shaojie certainly will not continue the previous tactics - focusing on the inside.George Hill and Paul George are not unable to move, and his personal dominance over Parker and Ginobili remains.

"Strong, really Jill is strong!"

Look at his little man, who said that being short is not suitable for surviving in the paint, isn't he playing pretty well? "

Lin Shaojie who entered the paint area may not be able to do good things, but with his strength, bullet speed and wingspan, it is still very easy to do bad things.

The basketball was clearly headed towards Leonard, but Lin Shaojie's inexplicable movement made people puzzled.

All kinds of manipulations, until they are unbearable.

At the end of the game, Popovich himself felt a little tired, and had to withdraw Green again, and Ginobili played.

In fact, looking at the Spurs' first half of the game, their defensive problems were not that big, but they just couldn't play the offensive rhythm, and Parker was particularly obvious about this.

The Spurs couldn't find their own rhythm, and they had nothing to say when they were opened up.

The Pacers in front of them are not simply a problem of explosive growth. They are not inferior to the Spurs in terms of tactics. The two sides are fast and slow, and the tactics are mutual restraint.

No matter how good your skills and tactics are, if the opponent's strength and speed overwhelm you, you can only lie there and let yourself be fucked, and you will not be able to use any tactics or techniques.

Moreover, Popovich also suspects that under the same size or weight, Lin Shaojie should be the one with the best jumping and strength. No one is more talented than him.

The Spurs want to bring the game back to their own rhythm, except for Ginobili, who is more abrupt, everyone else is doing it step by step.

In Popovich's eyes, Lin Shaojie, who looks delicate, is actually fierce. He is the player who can use his body the most in the league. He is completely crushing against guards like Parker and Ginobili, and he does not give his opponents a chance to breathe. .

"I didn't have deep feelings before, but seeing this scene in front of me, I also think Durant is more suitable to be a terminator, not the boss of the team."

A few minutes of playing time had consumed almost all of his stock, and Bynum, who wanted to play again, could only pat his legs helplessly, secretly hating himself for not wasting his time.

The "everything" of a 3D player is the representative of mediocrity in front of Lin Shaojie, but without Danny Green, Ginobili obviously cannot help defend Lin Shaojie well.

However, when Leonard received the ball on his front foot, Paul George blocked it on his back foot. With George Hill eyeing him all the way, Leonard had no room to make a shot. Subconsciously, Ginobili, who was still unmarked for the time being, became Leonard's pass target.

The success rate of the Spurs who cannot play an effective offense is not high, and it is obviously impossible to get close.

Basketball, after all, is a sport of physical talent.

Heroes are not allowed to see their gray hair.

But this section of the game is over, and it is not certain that Bynum will not be able to play in the next section.

"Of course you like this type of player, but I want to remind you that Lynn's style of play is completely different from yours. He is a troublemaker!"

But the Pacers were obviously unwilling. Lin Shaojie's rapid switching between offense and defense made the Spurs still unable to find that point.

But the conditions do not allow it. It is not easy to give him a few minutes to play in the finals, but it is still not easy to face a veteran like Duncan.

Popovich, who was sitting off the court, had already seen that Bynum was at the end of his battle. In just a few minutes, the big guy who had caused them big troubles in the West was no longer the "little shark" at his peak. , "In the recent years of desertion, you can't fake it, and your physical fitness under fierce confrontation is not enough.

If it wasn't for the Spurs, and if it wasn't for Hibbert's death in the team, he and Bynum would definitely not be able to play.

Smith agreed: "The Thunder's ability to compete with the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals is almost a manifestation of Durant and Westbrook's personal strength, but the Pacers have an advantage over the Spurs, that is, Lynn's command merits, this little guy It's just fantastic, he's so good at taking advantage of himself and his teammates."

The insiders of the Pacers confirmed that the Spurs' dominant insiders are actually short of people. There is no one in the league that does not lack good insiders, except for the Grizzlies!
Danny Green, who replaced Manu Ginobili, performed well and hit a 3-pointer in the second half, which can be regarded as returning blood for the Spurs.

A 2+1 opportunity widened the difference between the two sides to double digits.

Popovich is also a little helpless in the face of a Pacers who are in good condition, just like the "second son of the Thunder" when they face the explosion.

After Lin Shaojie got Splitter off the field early, he began to operate as a master tactician again, focusing on defense. With a solid point difference, he caught Green and just output a meal.

Lin Shaojie, who was attacking, took a free throw opportunity by the way.

Injuries are fatal accomplices, but his undisciplined living habits are the culprit for his accelerated elimination.

Think about it in a basketball arena. There is a player weighing 110 kilograms, and the speed of [-] meters is just over ten seconds. Who can stop such a player from running.

Parker's prayers worked, and Lin Shaojie didn't shoot a three-pointer, but Leonard could only watch as Lin Shaojie went straight to the inside, and he went up to Diao.

George Hill, who received the ball, instantly pushed the ball with both hands. The two seemed to have completed a two-for-one cooperation on the basketball court. Parker, who was blocked by Leonard, could only watch Lin Shaojie go straight to his inside.

But Green's performance ends there.

"It's still Guidance Lin. When there is a chance to shoot a three-pointer, he just doesn't shoot it and just buckles it. Obviously, there won't be many deductions in a game, but every one is the essence!"

Lin Shaojie, who was resting, looked at the dejected Bynum, and he could clearly feel that the opponent wanted to stand on the professional stage again.

"In my opinion, this is the biggest change for the Pacers. Lynn is really good at playing. Obviously the Spurs have an advantage in the interior, but Lynn gave up the outside line and fought the opponent inside.

Lin Shaojie, who was holding on to the basketball, seemed to be unable to see everything in front of him. He passed the ball directly behind his head, and rushed out close to Leonard.

But the basketball had just left Leonard's hands, and he had already started to move his feet, and Lin Shaojie, who was rushing towards Ginobili's side, killed him.

After completing the organizational task on the offensive end, Lin Shaojie went straight to the inside and "have fun" with Duncan and Dior in the paint!

"Bang!"

Barkley in front of the commentary stand wanted to laugh.

Smith glanced at the fat old guy.

Lin Shaojie scored 4 assists on Bynum alone. After this game, I don't know if there will be a triple-double. A large double-double should not be a problem.

The shot was not strong, and it was still near the basket. Just when Dior was about to take down the backcourt rebound, Lin Shaojie squeezed over from nowhere.

No matter how well the Spurs play and how united they are, it is based on the fact that their opponents are weaker than them. Right now, Lin Shaojie's outburst drives his teammates, and under the fairness and justice, they want to crush their opponents.

Barkley exclaimed excitedly, Lin Shaojie's turn-back run was really good, he actually completed the steal from the connection between Leonard and Ginobili.

Is Smith wrong?
No!

On the court, Duncan and Austria quickly returned to defense;
Leonard also tried his best, even fouling to stop Lin Shaojie's fast break.

The Spurs' own backcourt rebounds were almost caused by his "rat shit". Even Duncan and Diaw didn't expect that Lin Shaojie was so keen in judging the basketball placement. As long as you don't pay attention, that guy dares to play in the frontcourt Take the rebound and fight for a second chance for the Pacers.

Sure enough, after the start of the second quarter, even if Bynum wanted to play, Frank would not allow it.

"Too smart, Lynn is such a smart guy, he is more suitable to be the boss than Durant, look at this rhythm control, really great!"

Parker returned to defense while praying. Although Leonard was expressionless, his fierce eyes showed that he was quite annoyed by this mistake.

Regarding Hibbert's inability to play in the second quarter and Gobert's appearance again, Popovich had expected that Diaw would be arranged by the old coach again. It seems that the San Antonio people did not give up.

Right now, after George Hill completed his shot from the outside, the basketball was a little bit worse, and he smashed out of the basket with a "bang".

In fact, Leonard wants to carry the banner of offense, but Ginobili is also on the court, and there are not many possessions left for him. At this time, the Spurs still have the final say on GDP, and his pick can only be delay.

The NBA is the most troublesome. The radio on the basket can always make the audience excited by the sound of dunks scream "Aww". When there is no war, this kind of collision between males will always make people excited.

"boom!"

"Shh!"

After the violent sound, Lin Shaojie was hanging on the basket. Under him was Dio who was staggering backwards, his face full of shock and disbelief.

He, the French magician, was dunked again!
