legendary point guard

Chapter 390 The Biggest Test of His Career

No matter how hard the reporters questioned Lin Sen, he still didn't respond to what happened during the intermission, and the same was true for Carolina and the others. The fact that both sides kept it secret was even more curious to the point of inquiring. .

When the reporters left the center of the water house, like the vast majority of bystanders, they discovered the new developments on the official website of Wood Forest Company.

"Damn it, this is a naked hype." Many people expressed such emotion.

Although there are many people who think that the hype is also selfish, more people still think that Lin Sen's company has shamelessly used the incomparable platform advantage of the Christmas War to make commercial publicity.

Both the Cleveland media and the New York media couldn't wait to publish their dissatisfaction and accusations against Lin Sen's opportunistic propaganda behavior and suggested that the league should punish it.

"This is just a performance show, why is there a penalty, I don't know which rule n**a does not allow such a performance during the intermission, if this is not allowed, maybe I will trouble you in the future not to wear branded clothing Appearing in na**a's live broadcast is a violation of the rules." Paris Hilton, the CEO of Wood Lynn Company, responded unceremoniously.

She knew that what she needed now was exposure, and whether it was fined or not was not the point, and the entanglement of the media was what she wanted.

"Although our investigation does not believe that there is a particularly serious violation, this is a halftime show officially allowed by the Orlando Magic. We just hope that in the future, all teams will avoid such commercially oriented activities without the league's knowledge. Surname performance." n**a Vice President Stu Jackson announced n**a's decision at [-]:[-] a.m. on the second day after the Christmas battle, which undoubtedly disappointed many people.

At the same time, the league announced the results of the second round of voting for the 2007-2008 All-Star season. When the results of the first round came out, Lin Sen was less than [-] votes away from this year's champion Kevin Garnett.

After the results of this round came out, Lin Sen has successfully surpassed Garnett, who joined the Celtics through a big trade in the offseason, and took the lead with 1345593 votes, which is more than the second guard in the East. Dwyane Wade More than double the 62 votes, nearly 80 more than the third Jason Kidd.

Locking up the Eastern All-Star starting guard for the second consecutive year is almost a certainty. If it is said that Lin Sen, who was still a rookie last year, moved from the West to the East and eventually squeezed out Vince Carter to become the Eastern All-Star starting guard. Well, this year's voice has been significantly weakened. After all, Lin Sen's average data and team record this season are real.

And Garnett, who ranked first in the first round, was ranked second with a gap of nearly 10 votes after the results of this round were released, and the third was the Cleveland Cavaliers who had just been defeated by Lin Sen The team's LeBron James, LeBron James ranked third in the Eastern Conference and third in the league with nearly 90 votes.

Linsen's teammate Dwight Howard is less than 30 votes behind James, who is third, and ranks fourth in the East, but he has [-] more votes than center Shaquille O'Neal, who is second in the East. Locking down the starting Eastern Conference center has almost no problems.

The number one player in the Western Conference is Kobe Bryant with over 20 votes. As Lin Sen's good buddy, Chris Paul, who scored 11 points and 17 assists this season, is the host of this year's All-Star but only got With [-] tickets, it is impossible to get the starting guard spot in the fiercely competitive West.

There are still two rounds of voting results before the final announcement of the New Orleans All-Star voting results. In this round of voting, Lin Sen, who overtook Garnett and ranked first, will undoubtedly become a strong contender for this year's All-Star vote king.

Orlando kept campaigning for Linson, Howard, Billups and Artest, and the best way for them to do so was undoubtedly an outstanding performance on the court.

On the third day after the Christmas game, the Magic ushered in the Western powerhouse Utah Jazz at home. This is also the last time the two sides have played against each other in the regular season this season.

虽然在关键时刻用一次2+1帮助球队反超了比分最终带走了胜利,但在和德隆的直接对话中林森输掉了数据,全场虽然拿到了24分和8次助攻,但德隆拿下了统治级别的28分12次助攻。

And in that game, Lin Sen was also the first time in the new season that his shooting percentage was lower than 50.00%. The Utah Jazz, who reached the Western Conference finals last season, are still in good form in the new season. The current Los Angeles Lakers are only 2 wins away.

Although Utah's Turk Menette Okur is in a worse state than last season's All-Star selection this season, and his scoring average is nearly 4 points less per game, his ability to pull out and shoot three-pointers is enough to cause headaches for defensive players.

Carlos Boozer, who bears the name of Cleveland's anti-bones boy, continues to be in the ranks of 20+10 clubs. He continues to be the Jazz's scoring leader and rebounding leader this season, and he is the Jazz's big killer.

Whether it is Dwight Howard, who scored 20+10 figures last season, or Darko Milicic, who suddenly rose to the No. [-] pick in the playoffs, the Magic's insiders have performed well this season.

The ak47 Kirilenko on the front line can't compare with two years ago, but everyone knows that he has made sacrifices for the team. Involved in trading rumors, and the Magic once considered that Kirilenko finally gave up the introduction because of Kirilenko's big contract.

The ak47, who got rid of the injury this season, caused huge troubles to the forward and guard players on the defensive end. When the Magic and the Jazz played against each other for the first time, Lin Sen felt Kirilenko's true strength. During the game, Lin Sen Sen was very unceremoniously blocked by Kirilenko once.

At the shooting guard position of the Jazz is Ronnie Brewer, who entered the NBA at the same level as Lin Sen. After Fisher returned to the Lakers this season, he successfully occupied the starting shooting guard position. Although the three-point ability It is very poor and cannot be compared with Fisher at all, but his fast break and breakthrough ability are quite good, and what the Jazz value besides his excellent physical fitness is his tough defense, which Fisher is far from capable of. compared to.

Last season, he was only a substitute against Brewer with the Jazz, and the restrictions on Linson were also very limited, but he felt his improvement for the first time against Linson this season. I want to cry.

As for the position of point guard, Lin Sen is very familiar with it. Deron, who entered the third year of his rookie contract like Chris Paul this season, has improved significantly because of the baptism of last year's playoffs. He can contribute 19 points per game to the Jazz. The 10.5 assists that sent the third in the league are the real brains of the Utah Jazz and the real Stockton man in the hearts of the Utah people.

Unfortunately, they stopped in the Western Conference Finals last season. Although they did not make any big moves this season, the only big move was the three-point shooter Kyler Korver who was traded from the Hawks a week ago to further improve the team's outside shooting ability. reinforcement.

Although the Utah Jazz on the bench is not as eye-catching as the Magic's bench, it is not bad at all. They have excellent rotation players from inside to outside. The biggest difference between the two teams is the coaching staff.

Iron coach Jerry Sloan's coaching ability is unquestionable, and Stan Van Gundy's coaching ability has improved rapidly even though he has led the team to the finals, but he still cannot be compared one-on-one. However, the Magic's luxurious coaching staff has more or less made up for the gap.

As for the state, it goes without saying that the Orlando Magic currently tops the league with a record of 26 wins and 3 losses. They just defeated the second-ranked Cleveland Cavaliers in the league by 27 points in the Christmas game. The morale is high.

The Utah Jazz also just defeated the defending champion San Antonio Spurs at home last year, which kicked them out of the Western Conference Finals.

The direct dialogue between the two teams, from the players to the coaches, is worthy of attention. ESPN also set the game to be broadcast live across the United States early in the season. Rush to New Orleans, the host of this year's All-Star Game.

In New Orleans against the Hornets, who have been in exceptional form this season, that game was not only a rematch between Linson and Paul's brothers but also another duel of the new generation of top point guards.

"Wood and Deron are hugging each other. They have a good relationship, and they are both new-generation superstars in the league's point guard position. This can be regarded as a good competition." Hoffman looked at Lin Sen and Deron on the field. Deron said.

Bill Wharton said with a smile: "Yeah, Wood, Deron, and Chris will take over the banner of Steve and Jason in the next ten years, but one thing to say is that the three little guys not only passed on The ball is good and the scoring ability is even better, neither Jason nor Steve has such a strong scoring ability, especially Wood."

"Stop talking big, you bastard!"

"I'm talking big? I'll clean up Chris when you go back from the east after cleaning up. You know, he met me." Deron smiled obscenely, and slapped Lin Sen on the back hard. Twice.

"That's Chris's own business and I don't care about it, but you definitely can't take away the victory tonight." Lin Sen also patted Deron on the back twice, "In addition, I have to win today's personal data you."

"Win me, you have to ask me, Andre and Ronnie agree."

"Wretched fat man!"

Letting go of each other, Delong and Lin Sen's fists collided.

"See you at the game!"

"See you at the game!"

"With the jump ball without any suspense, Dwight won easily!" The game kicked off in Bill Walton's voice.

Howard easily gave the racket to Linsen. As soon as Linsen received the ball, Deron appeared in front of him. In this game, Sloan arranged for Deron, Kirilenko and Brewer to defend Linsen in turn.

Although Deron's defense is not top-notch, but his strength and footwork are good enough to do a good job in the guard position, and each of Brewer and Kirilenko is good enough to defend alone, let alone Lin Sen Need to face the wheel defense of three people.

The pressure Lin Sen faced in this game can be imagined, and it can almost be regarded as the biggest test Lin Sen has faced on the defensive end since entering Na**a.

Before the game, Lin Sen also made sufficient preparations. In the beginning, he did not attack by himself but handed the ball to the inside Milicic under the interference of Deron.

Facing Boozer's defense, Milicic used his absolute height advantage to hit a jumper directly, opening the scoring for the Magic. (To be continued.)
