Chapter 172: The Battle to be Fought For

Still in Staples but today the Clippers have become an away team, and 90 percent of the nearly 20,000 fans are Lakers fans, and all kinds of distractions have drilled into Lin Fei's ears.

For all the interference, Lin Fei didn't seem to have the slightest feeling.

After getting on the court, Lin Fei immediately stood where he should stand, and looked at Kobe Bryant who was standing opposite with a calm face. Bryant, although they all won the first two games, but it does not mean that their strength is stronger than the Lakers, today's game for the Clippers if they can win the 3:0 lead will undoubtedly ensure that most of their body enters the Western Conference Finals, the Lakers also want to win this victory, once 0:3 behind this series is basically over.

"The game is about to start, the first two games Mike used non-stop changes to play the Lakers to death, let's see the starters on the court, the Lakers are still Bynum, Gasol, Ariza, Bryant, Derrick, and the Clippers chose to change the formation again, Lin Fei as the playmaker guard, Artest scoring guard, Wilson. Chandler small forward, big forward is Rashid. Wallace, the center is Tyson. Chandler, this formation is another test for the Lakers, especially for Kobe, who faced Wilson in the first two games. Chandler and Artest didn't play well in the pinch and it will be interesting to see if that will change today. "Kenny. Smith said.

Kenny. Smith is still with his old partner Charles. Barkley, "Just the day before Lin won the regular season Most Valuable Player award, originally scheduled to be presented today, there was a little mistake to move to the next award, Lin, who created the youngest MVP record, will definitely get a lot of attention today, Lin Fei has played the position of playmaker in the first two games, everyone should be able to see Lin's vision and passing ability, can Derek resist Lin? The good game is about to begin, let's find out in the game. ”

Honk!

The whistle blew and the referee threw the ball into the air.

When the ball reached the top, Tyson Chandler and Bynum jumped almost at the same time.

The fingertips of the two men who are physically high in the center position touch the basketball almost simultaneously, and the basketball does not fly to the sides but falls sideways under the action of both hands.

Lin Fei was running towards the basketball landing point accurately, only to feel a figure flash in front of him.

The Lakers fans immediately let out a high-decibel shout, and Kobe Bryant successfully grabbed the ball and launched the first wave of offense.

Lin Fei made a horizontal move to block Kobe's offensive line, however, Kobe did not choose to play alone and then smash Huanglong as usual, but threw a long pass and passed the ball to Ariza, who had cut to the three-point line, and Ariza quickly cut into the basket and dunked with one hand.

2:o, the Lakers used the opening fast break to tell the Clippers that it will never be easy to beat them.

Tyson. Chandler sent the ball to Lin Fei, Lin Fei was about to accelerate to the front court, a turn, what caught his eye was Kobe, his hand was pulled to avoid Kobe's steal, and after stabilizing the center of gravity, Lin Fei leaned on Kobe Bryant to dribble to the front court.

"Bryant faced Lin Fei at the beginning, is there no problem for Kobe Bryant to have both defensive and offensive physical strength?" Barkley raised his own questions.

But at the moment, the Lakers fans on the scene didn't care too much, and they cheered for their MVP.

Kobe Bryant didn't do it again but let Lin Fei lean on him and dribble to the front court, Lin Fei just passed the middle circle, Kobe Bryant was not retreating, but a side step and horizontal move directly blocked in front of Lin Fei.

"Can you stop me?" Lin Fei said lightly.

"What do you say?" Kobe asked rhetorically, opened his arms and pasted the whole person.

"Let the facts speak!" With the words, a smile appeared on Lin Fei's face, his shoulders shook, and the horizontal sliding basketball shuttled back and forth from behind.

When Kobe Bryant followed closely with a horizontal move, Lin Fei suddenly pulled the ball with his left hand and turned around, instantly increasing his speed to the apex.

The next moment, Lin Fei appeared behind Kobe Bryant and ran towards the three-point line like lightning.

Such a pass made Kobe's face look surprised, and when he turned around, Lin Fei was already close to the three-point line, throwing him out of more than two positions, and he was shocked in his heart.

The current Lin Fei and the original Lin Fei are completely in the same heaven and earth.

Before Ariza came up to make up for the defense, Lin Fei aimed at the three-point line and suddenly made a sudden stop, and the whole person jumped quickly to look at the familiar basket in the distance, and threw the ball with a confident smile.

A light crisp sound of entering the network announced that Lin Fei had hit a three-point shot.

2:3。

It was just 33 seconds from the opening.

Phil. Jackson held his glasses in his hand, and sighed in his heart how fast Lin Fei had progressed.

The game continued, with the switch between attack and defence.

Kobe Fisher had the ball in his hands, and Artest and Wilson Chandler immediately appeared in front of him.

"Wrap up and defend." Bryant muttered softly that he had enjoyed this kind of pinch defense countless times in the first two games, and everyone thought he was facing Artest and Wilson. Chandler's bag defense didn't play well, but he didn't think so, and his face was full of coldness.

When it comes to defending himself, Bryant never thinks anyone can defend him, and never will.

"Bang!"

Bryant dribbled with one hand and guarded the ball with the other to prevent Artest from breaking the ball, and then hit Wilson sideways. Chandler's chest.

There was a huge amount of power in the chest, Wilson Chandler's body was very hard but there was still some gap with Kobe Bryant in terms of strength, and he was forced to take a step back, and Artest on the side immediately made up for Chandler's lost position with a side step.

Syllable!

Syllable!

Syllable!

The basketball hit the ground unhurriedly, and Artest and Chandler did not dare to relax at all.

The pace of the dribble increased, and Bryant once again used the way of carrying it, but this time Artest, who is known for his strength.

Artest steadied himself and prepared to deal with Kobe's back, Wilson on one side. Chandler was waiting for an opportunity.

At this moment, Bryant's peripheral vision found that Ariza had an excellent vacancy, and the dribbling hand suddenly shook, and the basketball accurately passed to Ariza who was in a good position.

Wilson Chandler was shocked and rushed forward to make up for it, but it was too late and could only watch as Ariza threw the ball steadily in the open space.

A crisp sound of wiping the net announced that Ariza hit a three-point shot, and Ariza, who had scored for himself, had scored five points, which was not the key, the key was Bryant's pass to Mike on the sidelines. Dunleavy felt a hint of concern.

The bag defense is destined to expose some holes, and the main reason why Dunleavy can confidently and boldly implement the bag defense against the Lakers is that the Lakers lack a stable scoring point except for Kobe, but today it was somewhat unexpected by Dunleavy.

Lin Fei felt Kobe's cold gaze sweep by, and knew in his heart that today's game would be difficult.

"Attack!" Lin Fei waved his hand and shouted, took the ball, this time Kobe Bryant did not stay in the backcourt to defend but retreated to the frontcourt.

Lin flew to Wilson. Chandler and Artest winked and then pushed forward without hurrying.

Artest passed half the court before Lin Fei, and a sideways cover tried to block Kobe Bryant to reduce the burden for Lin Fei, but Kobe Bryant, with his rich experience, turned back and moved sideways, turning Artest's cover into uselessness.

Lin Fei didn't think that Artest would cover successfully at once, and seeing Kobe Bryant shake off Artest, Lin Fei simply passed the ball to Wilson. Chandler, cut to the top of the arc himself, and Kobe Bryant immediately chased back.

The Lakers' defensive formation is a 2-3 combination, with Ariza taking a step inside the 45-degree three-point line, Kobe Bryant at the top of the arc, and Fisher taking a step inside the three-point line on the other side, and Gasol and Bynum guarding the interior and ready to help defend at any time. For the Lakers, the height of the interior has a certain advantage in the face of any team, but although the Clippers are slightly inferior to the Lakers in terms of interior height, their mobility is not bad.

It seems that the 0-2 deficit has pushed the Lakers to a dead end, and every player has burst out with a huge will to fight.

The Clippers' continuous cooperation failed to tear the Lakers' defense, no matter from which angle of attack, there were always two people who stepped forward to wrap up, and at the same time put pressure on the Clippers' ball carriers, and the overall defense had almost no flaws in the player's subjective awareness.

In such a situation, the Clippers' offense was continuously blocked, and seeing that the 24-second offensive time was approaching, Wilson. Chandler had to barely take a shot from outside the three-point line on the right side against Ariza's defense.

But under Ariza's interference, the angle and force of the shot were off.

"Rebound!" The moment the shot was made by Wilson. Chandler knew the ball wasn't going to go and immediately shouted at the inside.

Syllable!

The basketball slammed into the front of the hoop and bounced high.

Bynum's huge size will be Tyson. Chandler squeezed behind him and raised his arms high to jump, and Gasol on the other side took advantage of his nimble footwork to seize a favorable position under Wallace's interference and immediately prepared to jump.

Gasol stretched his arms lightly and immediately grabbed the defensive rebound in his hands.

However, when he landed and was about to make a pass, his ears drilled into Fisher's voice.

"Be careful!"

Gasol didn't react yet, only heard a "bang", and the basketball in his hand disappeared.

And the person who broke the ball was Lin Fei, in Wilson. The moment Chandler shot, he judged the landing point of the basketball and immediately accelerated to the basket, but compared with the four big men on the inside, his height and position had no advantage at all, so Lin Fei simply did not rush to grab the rebound and simply waited for the opportunity, if the Lakers won the rebound, as long as he didn't pay attention, he would go up directly to break the ball, and the fact was that Gasol didn't pay attention to giving Lin Fei the opportunity to break the ball.

Grabbing the ball in his hand, Lin Fei didn't stop for a moment and dribbled directly, grabbed the ball with both hands, and immediately jumped up from Gasol's side like a rocket with his legs.

The basket was close in front of them, Gasol and Bynum had just reacted, and Lin Fei smashed the ball into the basket.

At that moment, a large, black-skinned hand appeared above the basketball.

Touch!

A huge force was transmitted from the basketball to Lin Fei's wrist, and Lin Fei, who was completely defenseless, failed to block the sudden attack of this force, and the basketball immediately came out of his hand.

Both hands grabbed the basket under the habitual name.

"Lin showed up in the deadliest place, and poor Paul added a rebound and a turnover." Barkley said with a smile.

"Bryant, Bryant showed up where he should be, and a hot block told Lin not to be delusional about attacking the Lakers' basket." Kenny. Smith shouted excitedly into the microphone, his eyes glanced at Barkley beside him, and he couldn't help but be even happier when he saw Barkley's excited expression dim.

Lin Fei's broken ball is already a manifestation of wisdom, but what can Kobe's block indicate?

Kobe Bryant kept staring at Lin Fei, and when Lin Fei ran to the inside, his intuition drove him to rush to the inside, and Lin Fei broke the ball and jumped to dunk just to give him a chance.

After the block, Ariza grabbed the ball first and quickly launched a fast break, which was finally won by an easy layup by the old fish Fisher.

The Lakers fans at the scene did not hesitate to shout their own shouts, and the Lakers' opening attacks and defenses gave them hope of victory, and the shadows left by the first two games seemed to disappear.

“mvp mvp!mvp!”

"The Lakers will win! The Lakers will win! ”

The morale of the Lakers was high as the fans cheered them on.

Lin Fei couldn't help but think of a word - the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind!

Kobe Bryant is that horrible guy.

Lin Fei didn't feel depressed, but had more expectations in his heart. Kicked out of the playoffs by the Lakers for two consecutive years, this year Lin Fei wants to kick out the Lakers led by his own big brother Kobe, if it is relatively easy like the first two games, Lin Fei can't catch up with much excitement and sense of accomplishment, and now this situation is what he wants.

Lin Fei looked up at the big screen, the score of the two sides was 3:7, and it was less than 2 minutes before the opening.

"Settle down, hit a ball first." Lin Fei raised his right hand and shouted loudly, quite an orthodox organizational defender.

The Clippers' players responded quickly with action, and everyone was actively running.

In the face of the Clippers who were very active in running, the Lakers' defensive formation changed in an orderly manner.

Steadily advancing the front court and staying outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, Lin Fei didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, facing Aliza, who was defending himself, to control the ball steadily.

The Clippers all know that Lin Fei is ready to play singles in this ball, and in the face of Ariza's defense, Lin Fei's offensive confidence is undoubtedly more sufficient, and compared with Kobe, Ariza's experience and body are not yet mature, which is an excellent and rare opportunity for Lin Fei.

Ariza cautiously watched Lin Fei show his outstanding ball control skills in front of him, lowering his body's center of gravity, trying not to follow Lin Fei's constantly moving body movements.

The basketball was shuttling down and behind him, and Lin Fei didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

"Want to shoot a three?" Ariza saw Lin Fei's knees bend rapidly, and the way his feet kicked the ground was completely a prelude to jumping and shooting. The tense defensive nerves also subconsciously jumped up to defend at this moment, and he knew how dangerous it was to let Lin Fei shoot three points.

At this moment, a sly smile appeared in Ariza's eyes, and he was immediately annoyed that he had been deceived by Lin Fei.

Looking at Ariza who was jumping, Lin Fei took a step sideways, staggered Ariza's defense, and then jumped quickly to make a move.

Ariza could only watch Lin Fei shoot not far from him, although he was unwilling to do anything about it, he could only become a spectator powerlessly.

The ball crossed an exclusive Lynn arc over Staples and landed accurately into the hoop.
