legendary point guard

Chapter 61 Unwilling

With Kobe's outstanding performance, the Lakers took an 8-point lead at the end of the first quarter.

In the second quarter of the game, Lin Sen played more of a pure organizer role on the offensive end. Although he played as a point guard, Lin Sen likes to use his own offense to drive the team's offense, and he likes to play as he pleases. .

"Before you know it, the first half is coming to an end. Bryant has scored 25 points at the end of the first half. Tonight is likely to be another 40+ night." Hoffman looked at the scene on the big screen. Statistics say.

Bill Walton looked at Lin Sen who took the ball: "Wood is actually not bad in terms of statistics. He made 9 of 4 shots, scored 10 points with free throws, and had 7 assists."

After a pause, Bill Walton continued: "Tonight is another double-double night for Wood, but in terms of performance on the court, it is indeed a bit bad, especially compared with his previous four games, of course I think This is also due to our higher requirements."

Hoffman smiled and nodded: "Bill, you are right. We can't ask too much from a rookie. It is very good for Wood to do this. You must know that this is the fifth game of his career. He is still young." There are a lot of players at his age who are still struggling to play."

Lin Sen dribbled the ball across the half, and was not in a hurry to advance to the three-point line, but wasting time. At this time, there were 22 seconds before the end of the first half, and there were still 17 seconds left for the Timberwolves to attack.

Kobe did not directly go up to defend Lin Sen, but stopped at the three-point line. Such a distance allowed him to defend Lin Sen calmly.

The 24-second attack time slowly turned into 12 seconds, and Lin Sen still showed no signs of starting.

Kobe narrowed his eyes, thinking about whether to go up and force him.

At this time, Lin Sen, who was parked outside the middle circle, moved.

Lin Sen was like a super sports car, reaching the highest speed in an instant.

Bryant moves laterally quickly, arms outstretched as he has been doing throughout the first half.

In the first half, Lin Sen suffered enough from Kobe's defense, and relied more on the cover of his teammates to get rid of Kobe, although Lin Sen has not challenged Kobe's defense alone since the first half.

But he has been thinking about how he can effectively break through Kobe's defense, and it was only at this moment that Lin Sen wanted to give it a try.

When Lin Sen and Kobe were about the same size, Lin Sen pulled the ball with his right hand to change direction.

But Kobe was unmoved, but continued his defensive posture.

The second change of direction followed, and this time Lin Sen accelerated immediately after the change of direction, cutting to the other side of Kobe.

When Lin Sen waited for Kobe to make the next defensive move in an instant, the ball passed through the back and came to the right hand.

At the same time, the whole person changed the direction of the breakthrough, leaning against Kobe and cutting in.

Lin Sen had enough confidence in his first step. After getting rid of Kobe, Lin Sen directly cut to the inside.

Kwame Brown looked at Lin Sen who was rushing in, and immediately moved his feet to prepare for defense.

Facing Kwame Brown's supplementary defense, Lin Sen didn't have the slightest fear, and jumped up to meet Kwame Brown's supplementary defense.

Seeing the big hand slapped by Kwame Brown, Lin Sen received the ball in the air, his whole body drifted in the air, and after staggering with Kwame Brown, he smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.

After sending off the basket, Lin Sen jumped to the floor without any celebration, but glanced at Kobe before turning around and running to the backcourt.

"Unexpectedly, Wood successfully broke through Bryant's defense at the end of the first half, and also staged a wonderful gliding dunk after dodging with one hand under Kwame's supplementary defense." Hough Man watched the replay on the big screen and praised.

"The ball was really beautiful. Bryant seemed to want to complete the last 7 seconds by himself. Phil asked for a short timeout. He must have wanted to make good use of the last 7 seconds of attack time in the first half, although the 7 seconds The time is not much but it is enough for the Lakers to launch an offense in the half, and now Minnesota is still 11 points behind the Lakers, if they want to continue to remain competitive in the second half, they must work hard on defense this time." Bill Walton said .

Back from the timeout, Kwame Brown stood on the sideline and was ready to serve. Lin Sen was close to Kobe, but he still couldn't keep Kobe from receiving the ball.

After Kobe used Luke Walton's screen, he shook off Linsen and received a pass from Kwame Brown.

By the time Bryant caught the ball, Linsen had reposted it.

The two entangled one step inside the three-point line.

Kobe leaned directly on Lin Sen with his back, and time jumped quickly.

Lin Sen gritted his teeth and held Kobe's back hard, but Lin Sen couldn't help taking a step back under Kobe's continuous impact.

"Work harder!" Lin Sen roared in his heart.

However, Kobe didn't give Lin Sen a chance. Less than two seconds before the end of the first half, Kobe hit again.

Lin Sen really wanted to stand firm, but he still couldn't. Kobe seized this opportunity and turned over and took off.

Swish!

Under Lin Sen's gaze, the basketball went into the basket with the whistle at the end of the first half.

"You can't guard me!" Kobe glanced at Lin Sen and turned to the sidelines.

Lin Sen clenched his fists. He knew that Kobe was telling the truth. Looking at Kobe's back walking to the sidelines and hearing the cheers of the fans for Kobe alone, Lin Sen shouted in his heart: "One day I will Will guard you!"

And this game against the Lakers and last game against the Wizards, these two games are of great significance to Lin Sen's entire career.

It was in these two games that Lin Sen gradually changed his original thinking and had a clear goal - to become stronger!

"Wood worked very hard, but the result was still a bit bad. Bryant felt really good tonight. He scored 27 points in the first half. Maybe Bryant will score 50+ tonight." Hoffman said with a smile.

After the first half of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers at home led the Minnesota Timberwolves by 13 points.

The [-]-point intermission passed quickly, and both sides maintained their starting lineups in the second half of the game.

However, Kobe's touch is still hot, even though Linsen re-handed the defense to Hassell on the defensive end.

But the effect is still not good, and Hassell has also become a victim of Kobe.

In the second half, Lin Sen also found some ways on the offensive end, and the cooperation between the two with Garnett became more and more tacit.

Although the Timberwolves failed to close the lagging score, they kept the point difference between [-] and [-] points, always putting pressure on the Lakers, which made Phil Jackson dare not change the lineup at will for a while.

However, when the game reached the 5th minute of the fourth quarter, the impact of back-to-back was also highlighted.

The pace of the Timberwolves was obviously slow, and Lin Sen also made two direct pass errors.

The reason for the turnover is that apart from the feeling of lack of passing due to fatigue, the pace of the teammates who receive the ball slows down due to physical exertion.

It directly led to the original eight-point difference, which became fourteen points again in a short period of time.

"There is basically no suspense about the outcome of the game. Bryant leading the Lakers will defeat the Timberwolves without accident." Hoffman glanced at the big screen and said.

Lin Sen propped his hands on his knees, panting heavily. From the 5th minute of the fourth quarter, his legs seemed to be slowly injected with lead.

Looking up at the big screen, Lin Sen's eyes were full of unwillingness, but his unwillingness still failed to help the Timberwolves perform a miracle.

Lin Sen realized for the first time that he was still far, far away from those superstars.

In the end, the Minnesota Timberwolves' four-game winning streak since the start of the new season was thus ended at the Staples Center.
