Chapter 134 Stand out from the crowd
What happened then did the Mavericks know that the previous three shots and two of them were training Lin Fei.
Lin Fei then assisted Jobs to hit a layup, and he dribbled to the middle line again, and hit another three-point shot with the cooperation of his teammates. The main players of the Mavericks are gritting their teeth and running around the court.
The Warriors fought back wildly, hitting a 15-5 shockwave to narrow the score to five points.
Avril Avril off the field was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth.
Lin Fei also discovered this flower blooming on the field. Seeing this flower, relatively speaking, will not be so tired.
Mavericks take a timeout. There is no way, Lin Fei is on the field, they must change the formation, otherwise the field will be a chaotic formation.
Carlisle's expression was suddenly calm, and his teeth were clenched. Carlisle went so far as to send in Rodrigo Boibwa, a player who has barely played in the entire playoffs.
Nelson's face was solemn. It's definitely not a good thing, and it's certainly a good idea to have a defender who has never played before.
Lin Fei controlled the ball again, still attacking quickly, but Rodrigo Boubois was waiting directly in the middle line, Lin Fei quickly went to the middle line, faced Rodrigo Boubois's defense, directly changed direction easily, and planned to give it, but at the moment when Lin Fei flashed Rodrigo Boubois, Rodrigo Boubois reached out and grabbed Lin Fei's shirt and took a foul. This kind of foul does not require free throws, which undoubtedly disrupts the offensive rhythm of the Warriors.
Definitely optimistic about Carlisle, this coach is really not easy. In fact, he found a statistic that is absolutely beneficial to the Mavericks. The Warriors rely on free throws to score the lowest percentage of a team's total points in the league. The Warriors' stats are extreme, and a lot of them are either good or bad. For example, the Warriors are the league's top scorer, but they are also league-first in points conceded, first in offense, and last in defense. He is the league's leader in three-point shooting and the league's leading percentage of three-pointers in total points, but the league's lowest in free throw shooting. In other words, the Warriors are a team that relies on the shooting type. Carlisle spotted this, and undoubtedly used it appropriately, slightly increasing the number of fouls to stop the Warriors' strongest fast-break and three-point shooting methods.
As halftime kicked off, the Warriors were noticeably slower in rotation and lost their rhythm. The Mavericks let people follow Lin Fei and didn't let Lin Fei catch the ball at all.
The Warriors had no choice but to give the ball to Ax, who received the ball in exactly one vacant space and shot directly, but failed to hit. The Mavericks grabbed the backcourt rebound, Kidd took possession of the ball to the frontcourt, handed it to Nowitzki, who turned and hit a jumper.
At this time, Lin Fei controlled the ball again, but when he was still in the midfield, he was directly fouled by the Mavericks and slowed down the offensive rhythm. Lin Fei was also helpless, the Mavericks' move was really effective, and the Mavericks pulled the score away again.
After several consecutive fouls against Lin Fei, the Warriors completely lost their rhythm and couldn't find a score at all.
Lin Fei seemed to have completely lost his grip and couldn't find his state at all. Avril on the field had already stood up, obviously starting to get anxious.
Lin Fei saw it all in his eyes.
The Warriors trailed by more than a dozen points again. And now it is no more than before, because time has passed. Both Nelson and Lin Fei's faces began to be solemn, and it was obvious that the situation had become more and more unfavorable.
Avril had a very concerned look in her eyes, it seemed that she was really concerned about this game, or maybe she was just paying attention to Lin Fei.
By the end of the third quarter, the Warriors had trailed by 15 points. Falling behind by such a score in the playoffs seems to be hard to turn around unless a miracle happens.
Nelson still high-fived his players at the start of the fourth quarter, and he still looked hopeful.
15 points! There are only a handful of times in league history that the league has trailed by 15 points in the fourth quarter.
Begin. It was still Lin Fei who controlled the ball, and the number of fouls by the Mavericks had already arrived, and another foul was undoubtedly a free throw for Lin Fei.
Now that Rodrigo Boubois is also out of the game, and with the suspended Terry, if he fouls, the Mavericks guard line is already unavailable.
It's still Lin Fei holding the ball, when he was in the middle line, no one fouled Lin Fei, Lin Fei crossed the middle line exactly two steps, and he didn't pay attention to who he was facing, anyway, this ball must be shot, and he must still run to the basket.
Hit!
Then hit again.
Mavericks take a timeout. Rearrange.
The tactics are still the same old thing, fouls.
It seems that Carlisle would rather foul Lin Fei than let this kid shoot easily, which is a typical wood-cutting tactic. However, what they are afraid of is that Lin Fei has a free throw shooting rate of nearly 90%, and it is almost to give Lin Fei points, but if you don't "send", Lin Fei will take it, and it will be even more crazy.
The good thing about fouling is that it slows down the pace of the game this year and takes more time because the Mavericks have a 15-point margin there. That's going to take 15 free throws.
There was one minute left in the game. Lin Fei actually got a staggering 14 free throws and hit 12 in a single quarter, almost tying the all-time record, and with 1 minute left, it is likely to make history.
Unfortunately, the Warriors are still five points behind, with only one minute left in the game. The Warriors attack the ball. At this point, the Mavericks' guard line had five fouls on his back, five for Bargna and four for Rodrigo Boibwa, which was unbelievable. What's even more unimaginable is that this was done by a shooting guard.
Lin Fei controlled the ball again and ran wildly to the midcourt, now the Warriors must be fast, they must rush to shoot 3 points, at least for the Warriors.
Midfielder Bargna made another successful interception and successfully won a foul. 2 free throws.
Standing at the free throw line, Lin Fei looked at the basket, he knew the weight of these two free throws.
In the first free throw, Lin Fei steadied himself and hit the free throw.
The second punishment, Lin Fei calmed down. Avril Avril from the audience looked at Lin Fei intently. The audience could almost hear Lin Fei's heartbeat.
Lin Fei looked at the basket, and threw it softly, the ball jumped on the basket a few times, but it didn't hit. The Mavericks grabbed the rebound. Time out!
The remaining 50 seconds. The Mavericks controlled the ball, Kidd held down steadily, Lin Fei's defense didn't dare to start easily, everyone wanted to steal, but few people dared to make it easily, if it didn't work, it would be a foul, and the Warriors would almost be out of play.
With 34 seconds left, Kidd handed the ball to Nowitzki, and now it's time for the superstar to perform.
Nowitzki turned his back to Jobs, hit hard, and then hit the classic turnaround jumper again. Again, the difference is 6 points.
There are 26 seconds left!
The Warriors had to rush to attack.
This was naturally done by Lin Fei, and under the cover of his teammates, Lin Fei went all the way to the front court, hit a 3-point shot again, and once again retained the hope of victory. Three points short!
The Warriors had to foul, apparently to let the Mavericks lead the way.
Lin Fei fouls Kidd! Kidd made two free throws.
A difference of 5 points! There were only 12 seconds left.
The Warriors scrambled for another 4-second attack, Lin Fei won Kidd's foul, and Kidd was directly sent off.
Lin Fei made 3 free throws and hit 3 hits.
With eight seconds left, everyone held their breath, and this was the Warriors' home court.
The difference is 2 points.
The Warriors had to foul, and it was Nowitzki who made 2 of 2 free throws.
The difference was 4 points, and it was almost a death sentence.
Lin Fei grabbed the shot again. 1 point worse. There are 4 seconds left.
The Mavericks take their last timeout. How to arrange, now the Warriors are undoubtedly fouls, and this may be the last time the Warriors will be led by the nose, because they have almost lost.
The Mavericks kicked off, and Marion threw the ball straight into the sky, which was very high, which was undoubtedly to consume time, and the Warriors' full-court pressing did not play a role at all.
The ball was thrown so high that it almost felt like it was going to the top of the court, and it took 2 seconds directly. It's a tactic! I dare to kick off like this in 4 seconds. When the ball landed, the Warriors' Steve Jobs and Aix were ready to grab this crucial ball, while the Mavericks' Chandler and Marion were also waiting for the ball to fall on the court.
Finally Chandler grabbed the rebound! It was a complete declaration of defeat for the Warriors.
Lost by 1 point!
Lin Fei shot 9-of-12 from three-pointers and 14-of-18 from the free-throw line, scoring 41 points.
Everyone came over to comfort Lin Fei.
Lin Fei left the court with his head held high.
The comment is that Lin Fei has tried his best, and the 41 points he scored are worthy of the fans, and he is right about this stadium.
On the MVP list, Lin Fei is proud to be at the top of the list, but unfortunately that's it.
Regretful? No! Lin Fei is proud enough! He already has no regrets.
