legendary point guard

"Philip seems to be emphasizing something." Hoffman looked at the Pistons bench and said.

"It doesn't take my head, I can guess what the emphasis is, it must be defense, especially the perimeter defense against Wood, tonight Wood made three three-pointers himself.

Wood obviously had been prepared for a long time, although this style of play weakened his lethality to a certain extent.

But it also avoided possible injuries. More importantly, Wood's three-point lethality was too great, and he didn't do any obvious damage to the lethality caused by his own offensive style of play. "

"Bill, your analysis is too correct. This is indeed Detroit's biggest problem at present, but fortunately, the game is not irretrievable now." Just as Hoffman was speaking, players from both sides appeared on the stage.

Sanders, however, froze as the Orlando players returned from a timeout as they put Linson on the bench instead of continuing to play.

"Oh, Stan actually replaced Wood, he replaced Wood with Sean, and also replaced Dwight with Eddie, such substitutions are obviously very targeted.

Detroit's arrangement just now was all invalid. Philip never thought that Stan would make such a substitution adjustment, and Wood, who was feeling hot, returned to the bench. "Bill Wharton couldn't help looking at Sanders who was standing on the sidelines.

Sanders has a lot of expressions on his face, and all his arrangements will be ineffective if Lin Sen doesn't play.

But at this moment, he can only hope that the players can adjust themselves, and also hope that without Lin Sen, the Magic will play worse.

In fact, Sanders worried too much, and without Linsen and Howard, the Magic's defensive strength has increased by a level.

Milicic was marking Rasheed Wallace, who was having a hard time with his height and footwork.

And Sean. Battier and Ron. Artest terror outside double gate.It also made Hamilton have to rely on running positions again and again to find offensive opportunities.

Even if Hamilton is known as the CIC king who can't run to death.But the physical consumption can be imagined under the powerful defense of the Magic.

3 more minutes in the first quarter.The game has also come to the second team adjustment time, and both sides basically need to enter the second team competition.

"Stan requested a timeout. The past 3 minutes have been extremely successful for Orlando. They successfully withstood Detroit's offense during Wood's absence and continued to maintain their lead." Hoffman said.

"Wood, they will definitely make substitutions later. As long as Rashid is absent, the pressure on the inside will be much less, and their style of play will not be so crazy. This is an opportunity.

So here you go.I want to see the score increase as soon as possible! "Stan Van Gundy looked at Lin Sen and said.

Lin Sen nodded. He also knew that the Pistons must replace the inside line, otherwise the physical fitness would not last until the end. If Rasheed Wallace was replaced, the pressure would indeed be much less.

"But don't be careless, if you can shoot, don't break through!" Stan Van Gundy still emphasized very worriedly.

"I understand! Don't worry!" Lin Sen naturally wouldn't make fun of his body.

Sanders over there is a bit of a headache. The departure of McDyess and Billups this season is fatal to the Pistons. They didn't get anyone in the free market, and they relied entirely on limited players to work hard.

Now entering the second team competition, compared with the Magic, it is obviously falling behind.

This was evident in the first two games.So he can only change this game: "Tyshaun, you continue to play. Pay attention to your physical distribution.

The Ronald team needs your scoring, play reasonably. "Sanders arranged, and after a while the referee blew the whistle in his mouth to indicate that the timeout was up.

"The timeout is up, the two sides will enter the second team to compete in the first two games..." Bill Wharton was talking, when he saw the lineup on the field suddenly change the topic, "Okay, I announce that the weak points in the first two games will be eliminated by Orlando Wireless. Zoom in, Stan actually replaced Wood, his staggered arrangement, I really should give him a thumbs up. Although Tyshawn is still on the court, but Detroit lacks Rasheed inside, Rasheed exists It is a huge threat to the entire Orlando team, and his temper and impulsiveness are the most fundamental reasons why Wood did not enter this game.

I really want to know what Philip is thinking, seeing Stan's arrangement. "

"Stan is advancing like a master of on-the-spot response. This season's best coach award is the best compliment for him, and he deserves it." Hoffman said.

Sanders looked at Lin Sen who was walking on the stage, and opened his mouth depressed.

Originally, he planned to let Prince defend Lin Sen well, but Lin Sen was off the court. Although Prince is still on the court at this moment, if Prince continues to consume physical energy to defend, he will not be able to persist until the end.

"Aaron!" Sanders yelled at Afflalo on the court, making a gesture for him to guard Lin Sen.

Afflalo nodded, but his heart was full of drums, even though his Pistons this season were based on defense.

But Lin Sen's offensive strength was too strong, which made him worry.

And this is also the most basic manifestation of Lin Sen's lethality today, just like people like Kobe McGrady.

It will invisibly bring huge pressure to the defenders. This is the fundamental difference between superstars and ordinary players.

"Philip seems to be calling the rookie Aaron, does he know that the rookie Aaron is going to defend Wood?

Although I know Aaron is a defensive player, I don't think he can defend Wood! "Bill Wharton looked at Afflalo and said.

Compared with the lineup of the Pistons whose names are almost hard to name, at this moment, the Magic's back line is Lin Sen and Sam Cassell, the forward line is Grant Hill, the power forward is Chris Webber, and the center is Dikembe Mutombo.

If everyone is at their peak, this lineup will be extremely terrifying, and it is a team that is enough to compete for a championship.

David Stern on the sidelines looked at Lin Sen who was holding the ball and smiled. This season's NBA's ratings and benefits have improved a lot compared to last season.

The Magic's game ratings are ranked first among the 30 teams in the league, and Lin Sen is undoubtedly the main factor.

Afflalo was selected by the Pistons with the 27th pick in the first round this year. After entering the Pistons, he merged with the style of the entire team.Base the NBA on defense.

Regular season playing time is not a lot.Averaged nearly 20 minutes per game.He is one of the team's key players.

Just as Lin Sen took the ball to the frontcourt, Afflalo, who was defending him, stuck up.

When he touched Lin Sen's half-smile eyes, Afflalo couldn't help feeling fear in his heart.

The eyes are not the kind of suffocating fear, but a kind of lightness.

It was this sense of relief that made him feel worried.

"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

The Palace of Auburn Hills cheered for Afflalo loudly, and the fans hoped to see the moment when Lin Sen was blocked.

Lin Sen lowered the center of gravity of his body, and did continuous crotch with ease.

Looking at Afflalo's eyes, he didn't seem to have any plans to make an immediate move.

However, Afflalo did not dare to be careless.Just when he was preparing with all his heart.

Lin Sen in front of him suddenly turned around and flicked his left arm, which blocked Afflalo from his side.

Afflalo wanted to turn around, but after Lin Sen's arm blocked him, Lin Sen accelerated and threw him away completely.

Sanders couldn't help but swear, he didn't expect Afflalo to be left behind by Lin Sen so easily.

The Detroit fans at the scene couldn't help but marvel at Lin Sen's extraordinary speed and such a strong speed cut. Besides being amazed, they couldn't help but sigh how good it would be if it was a Pistons player.

But they could only look enviously at Lin Sen throwing Afflalo away, but soon they booed him to Lin Sen.

Lin Sen, who passed Afflalo, quickly came to the top of the free throw line, and Tyshawn Prince on the other side was on the other side of the free throw line.

When Lin Sen shook off Afflalo.He threw away his defending Grant Hill and forced him up.

Afflalo, who failed to defend, did not single-mindedly choose to chase Lin Sen, but quickly chose to switch defenses with his teammates.Avoid Linsen's pass to the open position.

Amir Johnson on the inside is ready, and at the same time consciously shrinks his position.

Mutombo's speed and offensive ability made him dare to shrink his position, seeing that Lin Sen was about to fall into a double-team.

Double teaming is a huge challenge for many people.

And there are many people who like challenges, especially when it comes to inside shots, and Lin Sen is undoubtedly one of them.

In the first 7 minutes of the first quarter, Lin Sen did not make a breakthrough inside. Although this was a requirement of the team, it was extremely uncomfortable for Lin Sen, who likes to break through and loves to shoot, not to break through.

Not to mention forcibly restraining and not breaking through, Lin Sen seemed to be rushing at this moment.

At this moment, Lin Sen was enjoying the situation in front of him, facing the defensive Prince and the shrinking Amir Johnson.

Lin Sen slapped the ball hard, and the ball hit the floor and rebounded quickly. At the moment of the rebound, Lin Sen stepped heavily on the floor with his left foot.

At this moment, he is still about three and a half meters away from the basket. Such a distance gives Lin Sen many options for shooting, even if he is about to face a double team.

"Wood, Wood's defense facing the inside, can the inside stop Wood without Rashid? Wood looks unstoppable!

A long-distance take-off, is Wood going to perform a dunk? "Bill Wharton shouted as he watched Lin Sen take off.

Rasheed Wallace stood up off the court: "Defend him, guard him! Damn guard him!"

Both Prince and Amir Johnson saw Linsen take off, and Prince also jumped immediately.

The super long arm is his biggest advantage on the defensive end. Although he took off a little later than Linsen, Prince's left hand covered Linsen in the air as much as possible.

Amir Johnson on the other side did not take off, but immediately stood still and raised his arms high.

This defense gave Lin Sen a better choice, raising the ball with his left hand.

The ball was completely exposed immediately, and Prince stretched out his hand. Seeing that it was only a little bit close, Lin Sen had already come to the basket.

At the moment when he was about to collide with Johnson, Lin Sen received the ball with his left hand and greeted him with his right.

In an instant, the ball came from the left hand to the right hand, and the left hand that originally held the ball became the best weapon to stop Prince.

At this moment, Johnson thought that jumping would only pay for one foul, and he could only feel Lin Sen colliding with his body.

The right hand gently picked the ball away from Johnson, and the whole movement was extremely smooth.Even the Detroit fans had to admit that Lin Sen's offense was beautiful this time.

"Wood. Wood did it. The change of hands in the air, the ball is so beautiful, so elegant, Wood once again showed strong inhuman physicality.

Before Wood entered the league, yellow people could not fly. It is recognized by fans all over the world that yellow people cannot make various flying movements in the air. However, Wood used his own experience to tell everyone that yellow people can also fly.

Wood is like an inspirational drama, he tells everyone that the yellow race is not impossible, but also can!

I won't feel tired of watching this kind of offense a million times. "Bill Wharton said with a little exaggeration.

Auburn Hills Palace fell silent for a while.There were loud boos again.

However, Lin Sen was not afraid, and ran to the backcourt facing the boos.

"What Philip should be more worried about now is that without Rasheed's restraint on the inside, it will be impossible to contain Wood's breakthrough.

Once Wood breaks through and opens the situation, the entire Orlando team can be activated, which is the most important thing. said Hoffman.

Sanders was gesturing off the court, and the Pistons all knew what the gesture meant.

But at this moment, what the Pistons will need to consider is the offensive end, and the defensive end should be considered later.

It was Ronald Murray who was holding the ball. Lin Sen saw him dribbling the ball past the center line from a distance, and narrowed his eyes slightly to resist Murray.It's like staring at a prey.

Murray, who came to the Pistons, came off the bench.However, he continued the true nature of the bench gangster in the Atlanta Hawks period, averaging 12 points per game for the Pistons, which is the most advantageous offensive weapon on the Pistons bench.

Especially after Billups was absent, his role was even more obvious.

In the lineup at this time, Murray is also the player with the most independent offensive ability besides Prince.

Looking at Lin Sen who was waiting for him, Murray knew that Lin Sen's offensive ability was very strong, but he also knew that Lin Sen's defensive ability was not outstanding.

So he wanted to try Lin Sen singles once. Seeing Lin Sen getting closer, Murray's center of gravity lowered a little bit.

Soon the distance between the two was less than half a meter. Looking at Ronald Murray, who was making crotch continuously, Lin Sen did not go up to press but waited.

Ronald Murray's dribble was very wide, and Lin Sen looked at Ronald Murray in front of him with a half-smile.

In Murray's eyes, this expression looked down on his smile, which made him even more convinced that he wanted to single-handedly fight Lin Sen.

The ball bounced back and forth between the palm of the hand and the floor, the frequency of the ball increased, and his range of motion increased.

Lin Sen followed Ronald Murray's dribble and changed his footsteps, looking a little messy.

"It's now!"

Ronald Murray muttered in a low voice. In his opinion, Lin Sen's defense was about to collapse.

Another big change of direction was made, the ball went from the left hand to the right hand, while Lin Sen in front of him slid to his right side with a sliding step.

Snapped!

Ronald Murray hit the ball hard with his right hand, and the ball flew to the ground again.

At the same time that Ronald Murray hit the ball, Lin Sen, who slid to the right, cut directly to the ball with his right hand at lightning speed.

Snapped!

Hearing the sound of his hands colliding with the ball, Ronald Murray, who was waiting for the ball to arrive, saw that Lin Sen's body had come in front of him from half a body away, and he immediately realized that something was wrong.

"Wood, Wood junior!!!" Hoffman shouted.

While stealing the ball with his right hand, Lin Sen's left foot got stuck on the right side of Ronald Murray's body.

With his left foot as the axis, he pulled his right hand, and Lin Sen, who was close to Ronald Murray, threw Ronald Murray behind him in an instant.

"Wood, Wood grabbed the ball, pulled the ball and turned around. This is a competition of speed. Wood has the advantage. This is an almost unfair competition, but Ronald overestimated himself!" Bill Wharton looked at the field Lin Sen shouted after pulling up the ball and turning around.

Ronald Murray, who was intercepted by the ball, also turned around immediately, and accelerated at the same time as Lin Sen picked up the speed. He stuck to Lin Sen tightly and tried to use his body to slow Lin Sen down.

Ronald Murray was intercepted by the Pistons. Although Ronald Murray and Lin Sen were entangled together, they were as fast as a [-]-meter race when they met a good opponent. So that other people can't help at all.

Lin Sen, who was dribbling the ball, was not able to get rid of Ronald Murray immediately under Ronald Murray's constant impact, thus gaining a clear advantage.

Under such circumstances, two people came to the front three-point line.

"**!"

Regarding Ronald Murray's lingering ghost, Lin Sen's mind was running fast.

The two had already entered the free throw line, and Lin Sen made an emergency stop.

There was a harsh friction sound between the sneakers and the floor, and at the same time, the ball was swung with both hands.

Ronald Murray, who had been trying his best to stick to Lin Sen, was caught off guard and directly staggered a position with Lin Sen. Seeing Lin Sen raised the ball with both hands, he immediately jumped up.

After he jumped up, he immediately regretted it, because just now he and Lin Sen had staggered the time enough for him to complete the attack, but Lin Sen didn't make a move immediately.

Seeing Ronald Murray jumping up, Lin Sen immediately went up to him.

Snapped!

Lin Sen's left arm hit Ronald Murray's right hand, and the referee's whistle sounded immediately.

"Never let you hit three points."

Ronald Murray let out a low growl in his heart, and the strength of his right hand increased instantly.

Lin Sen, who was adjusting, didn't expect Ronald Murray to increase his strength suddenly, his body's center of gravity was suddenly lost, and he fell directly to the floor.

Looking at Lin Sen who fell down, Ronald Murray heaved a sigh of relief, and a smile flashed across his face.

This smile did not escape Lin Sen's eyes, and Lin Sen, who was about to take protective measures, was completely aroused.

When he was about to fall to the floor, Lin Sen aimed at the basket and forced the ball out.

Bang!

Lin Sen fell sideways, and the bones in his waist hit the floor heavily.

Pain rushed to his head, and Lin Sen couldn't help taking a breath.

Boom!

Swish!

The forced run ball hit the board and fell into the basket. (To be continued..)
