Chapter 109: The Critical Moment
This defense became the keynote of Lin Fei in the second half of the game, and Kobe Bryant still turned on the personal offensive mode, in the third quarter, Kobe Bryant scored 16 points again, increasing his personal score to 38 points, but the Lakers still did not change the situation of falling behind, although only one point behind after the end of the third quarter, and in the third quarter, although Durant scored 10 points under Lin Fei's marking, but paid the price of 7 shots, Lin Fei's defense was also praised by Van Gundy.
The Lakers fell behind in the fourth quarter when the second team was contested, and with seven minutes left in the fourth quarter, the Lakers trailed the SuperSonics by a full ten points, which forced Phil Jackson to request a timeout to reset.
"Bryant needs you to get back on the pitch now, but your teammates have a good chance to pass the ball more, trust your teammates! Lin: Do you still have enough physical strength? Phil Jackson was a little worried, although Lin Fei scored very little today, but on the offensive end, Lin Fei did not give up his efforts, but he did not receive the ball, and spent a lot of energy on the defensive end, which made Jackson a little worried about Lin Fei's physical strength.
Lin Fei looked at Jackson and nodded, "Phil, I'm fine!" ”
"Okay, let's play like this, Lamar you mention high post and then you keep running and cutting, Derek, Bryant ......" Jackson kept drawing on the tactical board until the referee's whistle blew and stopped his pen.
The Lakers attacked, and Durant was still pestering Lin Fei, but it was far from being as close as he was at the beginning, after all, the game has played so far that Lin Fei has very few opportunities to get the ball even if he runs out of the vacant position, so he naturally relaxes a little from the depths of his thoughts.
"Don't waste your energy running, get out of the Lakers, you won't be able to get the ball here!" Although Durant was a little lax in his actions, he still kept disturbing in words, and he wanted to completely break Lin Fei's psychological defense.
“[***]!” Durant complained and immediately followed, because Lin Fei started to run again, and the lax-minded Durant was quickly thrown away by Lin Fei, Lin Fei came directly to the empty position in the bottom corner, and Odom, who was holding the ball, chose to pass the ball without hesitation.
Lin Fei also lived up to Odom's pass and shot the ball steadily, which was Lin Fei's seventh shot in the whole game, and Lin Fei also increased his personal score to double digits.
"Awesome cast!" Odom and Lin Fei high-fived each other and immediately ran back to the backcourt to prepare for defense.
This goal re-narrowed the score to single digits for the Lakers, and the supersonic offense failed with the collective efforts of the Lakers, and Byram pouted his big ass and grabbed the rebound and immediately handed it to Fisher, and soon the Lakers switched from defense to offense.
"Keep an eye on him, don't let him run out of the open seat!" Bob Hill on the sidelines waved his arms and yelled loudly.
"You won't have such a good chance to attack!" Durant said cruel words to Lin Fei and also raised his attention.
"You always say that, in fact I can always have good offensive opportunities!" Lin Fei unceremoniously hit back Durant's words, and as soon as Lin Fei's words fell, Lin Fei's back hit him with a force, and the whole person stepped forward and turned around to throw Durant away again.
Durant complained in a low voice, he didn't expect Lin Fei to be so sudden, the last time they met, he still remembered that Lin Fei was still talking to him one second ago, and the next second he had already run out, and this time it was like this again! As soon as he gritted his teeth, Durant immediately chased after him.
Lin Fei took a stride to the left, and suddenly the center of gravity of the whole body swung to the left, and in Durant's surprised eyes, Lin Fei ran to the bottom line on the right side, and raised his arm as he ran, signaling Kobe to pass the ball.
This time, Kobe Bryant did not choose to ignore Lin Fei, but passed the basketball over when Lin Fei was about to fall into the bottom corner!
Lin Fei glanced at the nearest supersonic player, and after having a score in his heart, he chose to shoot without hesitation, looked at Durant who rushed over, the corners of his mouth jumped up with confidence, looked at the basket in the distance, and pulled the ball out!
The basketball flew to the basket in Durant's helpless expression!
"Huh!"
The crisp and beautiful sound of entering the net made Durant a little embarrassed, and in a short period of time, Lin Fei threw two three-pointers in a row, and the ten-point advantage was instantly narrowed to four points by the Lakers.
Lin Fei looked at Durant with a gloomy face and said with a smile: "Mr. Bangyan, I can score!" ”
Durant's face became more and more ugly, and he was once again angered by Lin Fei's declaration of the failed rookie: "The guy who loses, you will pay the price, a painful price!" ”
Lin Fei was secretly happy in his heart, there was no doubt that he had successfully stimulated Durant.
In the next game, Durant repeatedly held the ball and singled Lin Fei, but it seemed that his shooting rate was not well guaranteed, although the Lakers' team offense hit average today, but it was slowly narrowing the difference, and when there was still a minute left in the game, the Lakers officially overtook the score by one point, and the noisy key center fell into silence.
"That's basketball, team offense is something to be promoted, and while it doesn't look as good as individual offense, that's what basketball is all about! Durant paid the price for his impulsiveness, and Lin kept doing well in the second half! ”
"Yes, look at Lin's score is only 13 points, which is a big gap from his average of 22 points per game, but he is indeed a key factor in the Lakers' overtaking score, and I have seen Lin's growth in just this game." Mark Jackson also voiced his opinion.
With the referee urging the two sides to play the final battle of the match, the winner of the two sides can be revealed in a minute.
Lin Fei is still clinging to Durant, Durant's inner desire is far beyond Lin Fei's imagination, in a very difficult situation, Durant threw Lin Fei away with blocking and dismantling, and hit a three-point shot! You must know that the three-point shot is Durant's absolute weakness, but at this critical moment, Durant actually used the three-point shot to complete the key shot.
The three-pointer made the center of the key boil, and the cheers of the Seattle fans were enough to shatter the roof of the arena!
"Big heart! It's really a big heart, this one is born, Durant is a natural killer, although he is still a little immature now! ”
The next two offenses were not completed by both sides with only 15 seconds left, and the Lakers' last chance, Phil Jackson used the team's last timeout to set up the final tactics, and the Lakers began their final efforts amid the boos of the Seattle fans, and fifteen seconds would decide the fate of the Lakers.
Looking at Durant, who was clinging to him, Lin Fei once again started his best running position.
