Ross Barkley's passionate shout was a sign of excitement for his No. 1 team, but Carlisle had to call a timeout, which was completely unexpected, and he had a vague feeling that today's game would become more difficult.

"Defend! Defend! Defend! Carlisle roared that no defense is destined to be no victory, and he hopes to use his last effort to motivate the Mavericks players, the big score has fallen behind 0:2, and if he loses this game again on his home court, the series will be completely over.

The Mavericks players drooped their heads one by one, no one wanted to lose, and they all won to get the final O'Brien Cup, but the loss of the first two games, this game is still behind the team makes them a little frustrated.

Carlisle used all the means before the Mavericks raised their heads and regained some morale.

As the referee's whistle blew and the Mavericks stepped back onto the floor, the Dallas fans tried to cheer their players on with their own cheers.

At the critical moment, the team needs to stand up the core players the most, which is their obligation, and Nowitzki is the core of the Mavericks, trying to use their own efforts to bring Rashid to the team. Wallace was stuck behind, but Wallace's aggressive scramble forced Nowitzki to change his mind and not continue with Rashid. Wallace was entangled and instead pulled straight to the point line to ask for the ball.

Nowitzki's ability to attack inside and outside is undoubtedly a headache for most teams. Wallace pulled it out as soon as possible, however, just as Rashid. When Wallace ran towards him, Nowitzki made a direct acceleration to get around Rashid. Wallace.

Rashid. Wallace was moving his pace to stop the Shaolin abbot after the eighties, and there was an intimate contact.

Watching the rippling Nets Nowitzki clench his fists in celebration, being able to score a goal somewhat relieved a trace of the team's pressure.

"Dirk was brave enough to stand up when the team needed him the most, and he didn't want to go through all these years of bitterness in the playoffs." Kenny. Smith said affectionately.

Tyson. Chandler quickly grabbed the ball on the floor and immediately passed it to Andre. Miller, Lin Fei and Miller came to the front court in unison.

Sean. Marion exudes a chill all over his body, and as a top defensive player recognized by the league, he must not tolerate being beaten up, which is the pride of a defensive player.

Lin Fei looked at Marion, who was waiting for him outside the three-point line, and clearly felt that attacking with the ball may not be a good choice at this moment, Lin Fei decided to use the offense that he is best at and what any team is most afraid of - running.

When he was about to come to the three-point line, Lin Fei did not stop, but ran directly to the inside, and with the help of the crowding of the inside, he threw off the opponent, which was Lin Fei's favorite running trick.

Marion was stunned for a moment, Lin Fei didn't seem to have used his running position to attack for a long time, seeing Lin Fei directly into the inner line, he gritted his teeth and immediately chased after him, Marion stared at Lin Fei's back with his eyes, speeding up his pace and trying to keep up with Lin Fei's pace.

Drew. Gooden and Nowitzki saw Lin Fei and immediately knew Lin Fei's thoughts, and they were ready to use themselves to delay Lin Fei's running, but just when they wanted to move their steps, Lin Fei's teammate Rashid. Wallace and Tyson. Chandler both stuck their positions, Lin Fei took advantage of the cover of his teammates and ran to the other side, and when Marion crossed the inside line, Tyson Chandler's position directly delayed Marion's pursuit.

The Clippers did not stop moving, and the continuous running guide ball drove the Mavericks' defense, and when Lin Fei reached the bottom corner, Culon, who was closest to Lin Fei. Butler was still three meters away, while Andre. Miller's pass also arrived with Lin Fei's arrival.

Countless people in front of the TV were amazed by such a combination, and they could believe how many times the Clippers had practiced such a tactical combination.

With an emergency stop, Lin Fei's footsteps stopped perfectly at the bottom corner, and he turned around and jumped on the spot.

Caron. Butler pounced on Lin Fei as hard as he could, but the distance difference made his defense interfere with Lin Fei very little.

Look directly at the basket, press your wrist, flick your fingers, and the ball leaves your fingers and flies to the basket.

A perfect Lin arc, under everyone's gaze, the basketball flew into the basket.

At 49:38, with Lin Fei's three-point shot, the Clippers who were playing away extended their lead to double digits.

"Running to attack? I seem to have seen Lin in his rookie season, and this kind of tactical drill is rarely used by the Clippers these days, and it seems simple, but as the teams get to know Lin, this kind of tactic also requires the team to run faster and more coordinated. Barkley commented.

After that, Nowitzki seemed to evolve into the most inexplicable state of his own, and his consecutive hits helped the Mavericks bite the point difference to the death, facing Rashid. Wallace Nowitzki used his own footwork and reaction to face Tyson. Chandler Nowitzki used his pace and his teammate's cover to shoot and face Lamar. Odomnowitski, on the other hand, used his height advantage and used his agility and feints against McRobertsnowski.

Mike Dunleavy glanced at his bench, really helpless, Nowitzki was like a plug-in.

The entire American Airlines Center was completely in a frenzy, "The unimaginable Dirk, the unimaginable Dirk, I don't even know what words to use to describe the Dirk at this moment, it is completely unstoppable, and today's basket is as wide as the sea for Dirk." "Kenny. Smith spoke completely for everyone's thoughts.

At halftime, Nowitzki hit a difficult buzzer-beating three-pointer with two steps from the three-point line to cut the Mavericks' deficit to four points.

Lin Fei looked at the roaring Nowitzki and thought in his heart, it was obvious that he didn't want to give his future child a failure, and his eyes looked at the audience Scarlett. Johnson's place, Lin Fei turned and walked to the bench, "I won't let you ruin my game." ”

"It is conceivable that the Clippers' strong interior defense has been put to great test, and if we can't find a good way to defend in the second half, the game will be even more intense, so let's look forward to the second half of 20 minutes." Kenny. Smith said.

The atmosphere in the locker room of the visiting Los Angeles Clippers was unusually depressing, not at all like taking the lead in the first half, but like being in a big position in the most crucial game of the Finals.

"Guys, what are we doing, we're still in the lead, aren't we? Even if that Dirk guy scores 100 points, as long as we keep our rhythm and he scores, we score, and we win in the end, don't we? Lin Fei clapped his palms and said.

Lin Fei's words also broke a trace of the depressed atmosphere, but it was obvious that the few people who were the main defenders of Nowitzki were still in a bad mood, and no one wanted to be sieve by the opponent.

That's when Mike. Dunleavy and the assistant coach walked into the locker room.

Although the atmosphere had changed since Lin Fei spoke, Dunleavy still felt the oppression of the atmosphere.

"Although we are ahead, we can't relax, even if we can't defend, at least we have to ensure the success rate of our attack, the defense can't relax in the second half, although it may not have much effect, we can't give up the effort, the feeling can come quickly or go quickly, but all this is based on your defensive efforts, if you give them empty baskets I guarantee that we will only take away defeat." Mike. Dunleavy was right.

Lin Fei thought for a while, "Mike, I want to try it in the second half, I want to try to defend Dirk." ”

Lin Fei's words shocked everyone, "Lin, do you want to defend Dirk?" Dunleavy asked in surprise.

"Yes." Lin Fei's firm tone made everyone realize that Lin Fei wasn't joking.

"If it doesn't work, I'll continue to let everyone help me, I don't joke about winning, I have my own defense, although I'm at a height disadvantage but my pace is more flexible than him, my strength is not bad, if he chooses to hit hard I believe I can resist, if he chooses to shoot I also believe that my bounce and speed can make up for my height disadvantage, I don't pursue blocks as long as I pursue interference, not to mention that I have to win this game, I don't want to disappoint them." Lin Fei continued.

"They? Who is it? "Obviously, although the atmosphere is a little depressing, the gossip of the teammates is still very strong.

"Who else do you say? But I have one piece of news for you, and that is that I have a baby. ”

"What? Lin: Do you have a baby? Oh, [***], how many female surnames in the United States will be sad. ”

"Lin, who are you with?"

"Male or female?"

Even Mike. Dunleavy couldn't help but ask, "When will you show it to us?" ”

Lin Fei was embarrassed for a while, "Well, it's only been a month, and there are still nine months to make a move, I don't know if it's a man or a woman, I just found out yesterday, so I have to win this game, Mike let me try." ”

The atmosphere of the entire locker room has also changed because of Lin Fei's children, and the atmosphere has become familiar to Lin Fei again.

"I can agree to this, but it needs to be agreed by your teammates, so I have no opinion." Dunleavy said.

Rashid. Wallace and the others did not object, Dunleavy nodded, "Okay, let's arrange it like this in the second half, Tyson, you continue to start, Lin, you take the position of power forward, don't force yourself too much, Wilson, you play small forward, JR, you play as a scoring guard, the team needs your firepower, Andre will have a faster offensive rhythm in the second half, you need to control it, Jason is a difficult guy, the offense in the second half is mainly ......" Dunleavy quickly arranged.

And Carlisle in the locker room at home is also nervously arranged, after all, the team is still four points behind, and Carlisle does not dare to expect Nowitzki to maintain the form of the latter part of the first half.

"The second half of the game finally got underway, and Los Angeles changed their lineup, with the Clippers using Wilson to defend Dirk? Will it work? It's been a long time since Wilson has been in the power forward position. Barkley said worriedly.

But when the game started, everyone was dumbfounded, and it wasn't Wilson who appeared at the power forward position. Chandler but Lin Fei.

"What Lin appeared in the power forward position, are you sure it's not a joke?" Kenny. Smith said in surprise.

The basketball court is the world of the long-man, and the interior is the territory of the long-man, although there is no shortage of mini-interior players in the league, such as Houston's Hayes, such as former Clippers captain Elton. Brand is also only 2.03 and is still the top power forward in the league, such as the Detroit Pistons' Big Ben who has left his mark in the history of the NBA.

But they are all professional interior players, and Lin Fei has never played this position, the main position is the scoring guard, the height of 2.06 gives Lin Fei a great advantage in the position of the scoring guard, and although Lin Fei has occasionally organized guards and small forwards since the beginning of this playoffs, he has never appeared on the inside since Lin Fei entered the NBA for three years.

You know, it's not just an ordinary game, it's an intense playoff game.

"What's going on? How did Lin appear in the power forward position? ”

"Did Dunleavy get kicked in the head by a donkey? Is he sure Lin can defend Dirk? ”

"I hope Lin can use his strength to interfere with Dirk as much as possible."

Clippers fans try to think about the good as they can, while Mavericks fans are ready to watch the show one by one.

"Just him? Did he think he was Elvin Johnson? Still playing power forward? I suspect he's going to play center forward next, and follow Erwin's example as an all-rounder. ”

"Ek, in fact, he's only going to be a joke."

"Dirk will blow him up and show him what the consequences of arrogance are."

...... "To be honest, I'm surprised by Mike's choice, but I will choose to wait, maybe Lin Hui will bring us a miracle, you must know that he is a miracle in itself." Barkley said with a smile.

"Charles, are you sure you're not kidding? Marvel? Miracles also need a certain foundation, Lin has no foundation for a power forward at all, and what awaits him is Dirk's madness. "Kenny. Smith said disdainfully.

Mike. Dunleavy's mood is also very conflicted, although he agreed to Lin Fei's request, and the players did not object, but this is a critical moment in the playoffs, if he can win, it will be basically flat, and if he loses, he will bear a big responsibility in the end.

The lights over the American Airlines Center were still so dazzling, although Lin Fei couldn't see the expressions of the audience around him clearly, he knew what they were thinking, and what he was thinking about now was to guard against Nowitzki.

"Can Lin do it?" Eliza. Cuthbert couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"Eliza, everybody can not trust him, but we can't trust him, can we? So he's sure he can. Scarlett smiled and shook Eliza's hand.

Cuthbert looked at Scarlett's confident smile and once again felt that he was still far from Scarlett.

"Yes."

Jason. Kidd dribbled steadily through the halfcourt, looking at Lin Fei and Nowitzki on the inside, and although he was equally surprised, he still believed that Nowitzki could easily break Lin Fei's defense.
