Chapter 44: The Twin Towers Continued (First Shift, Today's Third Shift)

"Not long ago, I received a call from Yao, and the recovery is not bad, according to the expected time, I should be able to catch up with the Olympics!"

Younas's words relieved the members of the coaching staff.

After Yao Ming's injury, whether he can participate in the Olympics has become a matter of concern to the coaching staff, even the Basketball Association, and even the entire Chinese fans.

After all, this is the Olympic Games held in China, and the General Administration of Sports also hopes to make some breakthroughs in the three major ball events, and the men's basketball team is pinned on high hopes.

The Chinese men's basketball team with Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian also carries the hopes of countless Chinese fans.

"Yao and I mentioned a person, Ray, what do you think of him?"

Younas looked at the rest of the coaching staff with an inquiring look.

In fact, Lei Lin's deeds are basically known to everyone in the whole country now.

The great achievement of two consecutive triple-doubles has long dominated the headlines of major media, but no one has proposed to recruit Lei Lin into the national team.

After Younas asked this question, the Chinese coaching staff, Director Gong, immediately gave his opinion.

"Raelin's performance in the United States is quite good, rebounding, blocking, all reflect his physical fitness and defensive ability, Coach Guo, what do you think?"

"The talent is good, although the offense is not enough, but as a defensive player, you can still consider it!"

"Leylin is really good, from the current situation, his physicality and defensive ability are what we need, I think we can consider bringing him in after the end of the season, which will be a big help to make a breakthrough in the Olympics!"

Sun's integrity is well-known in the Chinese basketball world.

For Lei Lin, Sun Jun still appreciates it very much, although the offensive means are single, but he has shown a certain talent, coupled with excellent defensive ability, and excellent physical condition, he must be able to polish well, and in time he will definitely be able to become a pillar player in the Chinese men's basketball team.

Younas nodded thoughtfully after listening to the words of the three members of the Chinese coaching staff, and what they said made a lot of sense.

But on second thought, how can he reasonably allocate their playing time among the four big men on the inside?

It was a headache for Younas for a while, but fortunately there were still a few months before the start of the Olympics, which was enough for him to come up with a perfect solution.

But at the same time, Younas is also glad that the world now knows that the NBA lacks good big men, but he is not lacking now, but he seems to have a bit more.

"What you said makes sense, but the league is not over yet, and now it's a bit early to talk about Ray, and our focus is still on the training arrangement!"

Several of the coaches nodded their heads after listening to Younas's words.

……

At this time, Lei Lin, who was far away in the Toyota Center, did not know that he had formed a fate with the national team.

"You guys did a great job, you controlled the rebounds very well, Ray, Dicambe kept on like this, Ralph, after you got on the court, make sure to put the ball inside and leave it to Ray to deal with! Ray, take advantage of your body and height reasonably, to eat your opponent, he is not your opponent, kill him! If you don't have a chance, pass the ball out, understand? ”

"Understood!"

With Adelman's permission to attack, Leylin looked at Ryan Bowen on the other side, and suddenly had a bloodthirsty feeling in his heart.

Honk......

After the timeout, there were no substitutions.

Hornets Peterson received a pass from Paul and forced a jumper in the face of Maddy's interference.

The Rockets' offense, Alston controlled the rhythm very slowly, one point was to take care of the elderly Uncle Mu, and the other point was to wait for Leylin to settle down.

Stuck in Ryan behind him, Reelin didn't open his hand to ask for the ball before Alston's pass arrived.

After the previous battle, Leylin knew that Ryan was not his opponent in the confrontation, so he arched directly to the basket against Ryan.

But apparently Scott was ready for the Rockets' change.

When Leylin beat Ryan, Peterson leaned over directly and wrapped the clip.

Don't underestimate Ryan and Peterson, although their offensive ability is not very outstanding, but their defensive skills are quite good.

Ryan Bowen's offense is simply a scum, and his body is basically a scum in the league, but why can he still stand in the league?

Relying on defense is to rely on tirelessly interfering with the opponent.

Unlike his home family, Bruce Bowen, Ryan Bowen moves very cleanly defensively.

Compared with Ryan, Peterson at least has some offensive ability, and his excellent three-point ability earned him a selection in the Rookie All-Rookie Team in his rookie season.

With a height of 2.01 meters, he does not fall behind when facing the swingman of the front guard, and coupled with the kraft candy-style defense, it can be said that it is a nightmare for the top swingman.

But this, Leylin didn't know.

Seeing someone wrapping up, Leylin's first thought was not to pass it out, but to push Ryan behind him away.

Leylin did it, pushed off Ryan, and before Leylin made the next move, Ryan posted it again, this is the biggest foundation of Ryan's foothold in the league, hard work and professionalism, although he is not excellent, but he will be able to complete the task assigned to him by the coach very well.

"Damn!"

After scolding secretly, Leylin arched hard again, then turned around and prepared to dunk.

"Smack!"

If Leylin completes the turn, then there is no way for Peterson to stop Leylin from dunking or making a layup.

But the quick-eyed Peterson directly slapped the basketball in Leylin's hand with a knife the moment Leylin turned around.

"Uncle's!"

Feeling that his hands were empty, Leylin cursed secretly and turned around to snatch the ball back.

Beep beep beep ......

But just as he reached for the ball, the referee's whistle sounded.

"Red ten, foul on the thug."

"Damn!"

The depressed Lei Lin directly shook his hand, he didn't expect that he didn't fall behind in the face of so many tough guys, and he actually touched the nail here with two little soft guys.

Because there were not four fouls in the first quarter, the Hornets sideline.

After a few shots from the outside, Paul drove straight to the basket.

"I'm coming!"

After shouting, Leylin stood directly in front of Paul.

It was the first time Leylin had played against a defender.

In the face of Paul, in fact, Lei Lin did not have a bottom in his heart, and was even a little nervous, mainly because Paul was fast and flexible!

It's very easy for a top point guard to play an interior player.

Seeing Paul constantly changing dribbles with both hands there, Leylin didn't know which side Paul was breaking through.

The scene reminded him of the game against Rice at Root Park.

With a flash of inspiration, Lei Lin immediately had an idea.

But in an instant, Paul quickly handed the ball to his left hand, and the whole person leaned to the left.

Although Rayling wants to put Paul to the basket and then wait for an opportunity to block.

But after seeing Paul's actions, Leylin instinctively shifted his center of gravity.

"Fooled!"

When Leylin moved, he knew that he had eaten Paul's shake.

But it was impossible to move the center of gravity in an instant, and I could only watch Paul rush past the right side of his body and complete the layup.

"Rookie, welcome to the NBA!"

After Paul made the layup, he muttered beside Leylin, which is considered a welcome ceremony for this not too old bird.

"Uncle's! Hum! ”

After muttering, Leylin continued to participate in the attack.

This time the Rockets still gave the ball to Reiling, and Reelin's strong play once again attracted Peterson's bag.

"Coming back?"

Looking at Peterson who ran over, Leylin slammed Ryan behind him, which was considered to be a vent.

Then, without waiting for Peterson to come up, he passed the ball directly to Maddie, who was in the open space.

Maddie caught the ball and hit an easy two-pointer.

Although the Hornets were behind, Paul was still unhurried in control of the pace of the game when attacking. After half-time, after passing the ball, Peja faced Battier with a three-pointer.

"Rebound!"

Just after Peja made a move, both of them shouted at the same time.

After Chandler heard Peja's shout, he directly stuck Uncle Mu behind him, and after he got on the court, he hadn't grabbed a rebound until now, which made Chandler a little embarrassed.

Clang!

With a bang, the basketball slammed into the rim of the basket and bounced to the free throw line.

"Mine!"

After a sliding step, Leylin took a slight leap.

With a snap, his hands gripped the basketball tightly.

The advantages of the twin towers are very obvious, especially when it comes to the control of the rebounding ball.

Although it can't provide effective help on the offensive end, it still provides a lot of help to the Rockets on the defensive end, especially in the control of rebounding.

The game went on slowly until the end of the first quarter of the game, when the Rockets and Hornets were tied at 23. Neither team had a very high shooting percentage, but that made Leylin grab eight rebounds in the first quarter.

The Twin Towers combined to grab fifteen rebounds, five more than the entire Hornets grabbed in the first quarter. Poor Chandler only grabbed three rebounds under the devastation of the Twin Towers, while also missing five shots.

Lei Lin and Uncle Mu successfully curbed Chandler's play on the inside, and with the control of rebounds, the power of the twin towers was fully displayed!
