With a strong body, chattering trash talk and countless small moves, Artest makes it difficult for every offensive player on the defensive end.

Coupled with the murderous reputation at the palace in Auburn Hills a few years ago, this made many people fear him.

Artest took it for granted that the rookie in front of him would be afraid of him, but he was disappointed.

Lin Sen ignored Artest's eyes, turned around and threw the ball in his hand, the ball drilled into the basket steadily, and the fans in the target center immediately sent bursts of cheers.

Artest behind him was very angry at Lin Sen's behavior, he had not seen anyone who dared to provoke him exist for a long time.

"Rookie, you're really different."

After the sound of Artest's gnashing teeth came from behind him, he heard Artest's departing footsteps.

For Artest, Lin Sen doesn't care at all, it's absolutely impossible, in the face of Artest's defense, Lin Sen has no certainty of winning at all, but this treatment of Artest is not arrogant but stems from Artest's character.

While Artest's ability is unquestionable, his personality can always cause big problems for the team, and it was his impulse to ruin the Pacers, who had a great chance of challenging for the O'Brien Cup.

In the end, Rejay Miller retired after the season, and if it wasn't for Artest's impulse, maybe the championship that season would have been the Pacers.

However, Artest still did not change much after that incident, and the Auburn Hills palace incident also made him a thorn in the side of the referee, and his fiery temper often caused him to get jishu fouls.

Before the game, Linson had a plan, which was to find a way to provoke Artest, and although this method seemed risky, Linson decided to give it a try.

As long as Artest is restrained, the Kings' defense will be greatly reduced, and the team will face a lot less pressure, and the hope of winning will be much greater.

In addition, the coaching staff also practiced Linson's off-ball running before the game against the Kings, in the eyes of Devin Casey, Artest's single defense ability is excellent, but the slow pace of movement is precisely Linson's strength.

When the referee blew the whistle to signal the starters of both sides to come on, the cheers of the fans reached the first climax.

The last home win over the championship-caliber San Antonio Spurs gave Timberwolves fans a burst of confidence in the team.

For the Kings, who have a worse record than their own, Timberwolves fans take it for granted that the team will win.

However, as soon as the game began, the Kings took the lead in scoring amid the boos of Timberwolves fans.

The goal was scored by Kevin Martin, who was selected by the Kings in the second round the year before, and after two seasons of growth, Kevin Martin averaged 19.8 points per game in the new season, second only to Artest.

After receiving Madsen's serve, Linsen quickly dribbled forward to the court.

As Artest said before the game, it was really he who was responsible for defending Linsen, and Linsen pressed Artest just after halftime.

Artest, who had opened his arms, stood in front of Lin Sen with a smiling face: "Rookie, welcome to experience the Ron defensive aircraft." ”

"Really? I'm going to have a pleasant experience, right? Lin Sen asked with a smile, looking very relaxed.

"Yes, it's so pleasant that you'll never forget it." Artest's smiling face was still the same, but the whole person suddenly took a step forward, and his strong body directly hit Lin Sen.

Strong muscles and brutal liliang, this is Lin Sen's most direct feeling.

In the past, Linson has also experienced strong defenses such as Baron Davis and Andre Miller, but it is far less than Artest at the moment.

Artest seems to exude liliang everywhere in his body, no wonder Artest was able to break Michael Jordan's ribs in the first place with the Bulls, and Linson almost lost control of the ball under Artest's impact.

"How does it feel? Seeing that you are so thin and pitiful, I can't bear to bump into you, maybe being a little white face is more suitable for you than being a player. ”

Without waiting for Lin Sen to shoot back, Artest hit again, Lin Sen's center of gravity staggered, and he controlled the ball with some embarrassment, pulled the ball back and took a step back with his left foot, slightly widening the distance between him and Artest.

However, Artest is obviously not ready to let Lin Sen wish, and takes a step to try to encroach on Lin Sen's space.

Lin Sen knew that he had to take the initiative to find an opportunity, and refused to allow Eddie Griffin to come up as a cover, and Lin Sen retreated again.

Seeing Lin Sen retreat little by little, getting farther and farther away from the three-point line, the fans at the scene couldn't help but get anxious.

Artest smiled contemptuously and took another step, but Lin Sen immediately pulled sideways at this moment.

Artest immediately slid to defend, but Lin Sen did not avoid slapping the ball with his right hand, and quickly pulled back with a change of direction, which caught Artest, who was sliding, a little off guard.

As a top defensive player, Artest knew that his speed was not superior, and immediately wanted to use his body to interfere with Linson's breakthrough.

The right foot walked directly to the right side of Artest's body, and with a bow, the left foot immediately stepped out.

Almost clinging to Artest's body to force a breakthrough, but Artest's Liliang almost made Lin Sen fall in embarrassment.

With a stumble, Linsen's knee almost touched the floor, but even so, Linsen's left hand was still firmly in control of the ball.

Looking at Lin Sen's dribble, the fans at the scene couldn't help but worry about Lin Sen.

Seeing that his left knee was about to hit the floor, his right hand quickly pressed to the floor, and after a hard support, Lin Sen quickly adjusted his body's center of gravity, and his left foot stepped forward.

Artest made a quick step back to try to stop Linson, but when he did, Linson was out of his control.

The Kings' players didn't expect Linson, a rookie, to break through Artest's defense when he was at a disadvantage, so that Linson only reacted when he shook off Artest.

Garcia hurriedly threw away Hassell to make up the defense, and Raheem on the inside was also ready to drop Eddie Griffin to make up for Linson.

Linson was ready to pass the ball to Hassell, but Mike Bibby was quick to step up.

Glancing at Raheem, who was about to leave Eddie Griffin behind, there was a sudden stop.

Want to stop the jump shot again?

The fans at the scene couldn't help but think.

Linsen's emergency stop made Raheem, who was about to save on the inside, take a sharp step and raise his arm, and Garcia, who was making up on the other side, jumped up for Linsen.

Syllable!

The ball left Linson's palm at high speed, and slammed directly into Raheem's body and bounced towards Eddie Griffin.

When Raheem turned around, the sound of Eddie Griffin's dunk could already be heard behind him.

"Wood, xiexie, your pass!" Eddie Griffin shouted at Linson, who was undoubtedly the best of his career.

Lin Sen quickly retreated, passing by Artest's side, Lin Sen turned his head and smiled at Artest.

"Hey, Ron, looks like you almost stopped me as a rookie?"

After speaking, Lin Sen shrugged his shoulders and looked extremely relaxed, turned around and ran towards the backfield.

Anger rose from the bottom of Artest's heart in an instant, and no one had ever felt so provocative about him.

Artest ran forward with a rage, and he saw from a distance that the rookie was about to say something to Hassell.

Just when he was about two meters away from the three-point line, Lin Sen suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Artest.

"Trenton, wait for me to defend that guy!"

This sentence fell on Artest's ears, and almost made him thunderous, a rookie was arrogant to this point.

"Mike, give me the ball, I'm going to see how he defends me." Artest shouted at Bibby, who was in possession, with his hand outstretched.
