Chapter 448: The King of New Orlando
"Not very likely, but definitely." Charles. Barkley smiled, "Of course, the premise is that Orlando sticks to the first quarter of play, as long as he sticks to this style of play, a triple-double is not a problem at all." ”
"What was Wood's previous rebounding record?" Kenny. Smith asked.
Lin Sen sat on the bench, and behind him sat Carolina and them.
Carolina took a big towel to wipe Lin Sen's sweat, looking extremely gentle, which made countless men in front of the TV envious, especially Carolina was still Natalie next to her. Portman and Lindsay. Lohan and a son and a daughter.
"It's so bad to be a live director, if you have to show Wood's happiness to fans all over the world, a lot of male compatriots will scold you." Barkley said with a smile.
The two little guys, Amy and Annie, babbling with their eyes closed, were so cute that although the sweaty Lin Sen couldn't help but touch the mouths of the two little guys.
"Your hands are dirty, be careful to make Amy and Anne sick." Natalie. Portman slapped Linson's hand.
"Haha, Wood was despised, although I don't know why he was despised, look at Wood's eyes just now, full of fatherly love, rich and future, handsome or a good father and a good man, I don't know where the next Wood-style man will be found."
"Charles, maybe when Amy grows up, there will be the next Wood-like man, it's family inheritance." Kenny. Smith quipped.
Soon the second quarter kicked off, with both the Houston Rockets and Orlando Magic switching to the second lineup.
In the competition of the second team, the Rockets still do not have an advantage, while the Magic interior is Mutombo and Chris, who played for the Rockets last season. Weber.
Maybe it's to show his old coach Adelman how he is in shape. Webb came on the court and not only played two in a row. He also showed his passing skills again.
The outside of the Magic is Billups and Sam. Kassel two people. Although such a backcourt lineup is not young, the offensive firepower is still the same.
In Chris. Led by Webb and Billups, the Magic stretched the margin to double digits for the first time after four minutes of play in the second quarter.
"Rick couldn't sit still, the point difference was pulled to double digits, he had to find a way to adjust, the most important thing was the use of Yao, Stan pinched Yao to death in this game."
"No way, Jeff has coached Yao for several years, and he must know Yao better than Rick, in fact, Orlando's targeted arrangement of Yao today is the best embodiment." Charles. Barkley said, looking at the Magic bench.
Jeff. Van Gundy was sitting on the bench in a suit at the moment. And his older brother Stan. Van Gundy explained the tactics among the players.
"Houston should be thankful that this game Orlando let Houston know where Yao's biggest problem is.
Of course, they should be more glad that not every team has an interior player like Eddie, and not every team needs top outside defenders like Shaun and Ron to stop Houston's breakthrough.
As long as there are no these two conditions, it is not realistic to want to completely restrict Yao. ”
"Charles, what you said is right, the best way to break through before the circle is to break through, only by breaking through can Yao be rescued from being troubled by the circle, Tracy has a good hand tonight, but if he doesn't break through, then it will be difficult to solve Houston's current big trouble, of course, it is still Steve, he should also break through." Kenny. Smith continued.
Pause back. Yao Ming, who was sitting on the bench, did not play, and Maddie, who had played almost ten minutes in the first quarter, returned to the court.
Lin Sen also returned to the court after a break of almost four minutes. Also on the field was Darko. Milicic.
"Stan, is this trying to extend the lead all at once?" Barkley looked at Linson and Milicic who were on the pitch and said.
"But now Orlando's outside defense is not very good, Sean and Ron are all sitting off the court, and Grant is not very good at defending his old partner." Kenny. Smith said.
As he said, Grant. Hill going to defend Maddie is not a good option.
Although the two are familiar with each other, today's Grant. Hill is no longer the successor of Jordan at the beginning, and his body is far from being compared with the original in all aspects.
Face Grant. Hill's defender, Maddie, took a step forward and leaned on Hill.
While leaning against Hill, Maddie made a crotch feint and changed direction, and then quickly Maddie took the first step.
et Grant. By the time Hill reacted, Maddie had already shaken Hill off.
Lin Sen, who was defending Little Black Bean Brooks not far away, immediately threw away Brooks and chased after him, but he was still a beat slower.
Lin Sen could only watch Maddie and throw the ball with a sudden stop.
Swish!
A crisp sound of wiping the net sounded on the field that Maddie was familiar with.
'It was another T-Mac goal, he scored right on the pitch and he was still on fire and he was in good form in the place where he had fought.
However, many fans in the stadium still booed mercilessly, although many of them came to the scene tonight wearing T-Mac No. 1, but this is no longer his kingdom but belongs to Wood. ”
Kenny. Smith glanced at Barkley: "T-Mac has scored 15 points tonight and is in great shape. "Kenny. Smith glanced at the statistics, "This is the NBA, of course, the T-MAC of the year was not wrong to choose, no one would have thought that Otis would suddenly change as if he was a different person."
If he were the same Otis he used to be, maybe Wood would have left soon, but it can only be said that this is God's arrangement, and we can't complain about anyone else. ”
Maddie's goal helped the Rockets cut the deficit to eight points, and Linson took Milicic's serve and dribbled forward.
"Attack! Offensive! Offensive! ”
Soon the center of the water house sounded a uniform call.
Linson came to the front court with the ball, and it was rookie Brooks who was responsible for defending him.
Off the court, Lin Sen saw the speed of this rookie Brooks, but in addition to the speed of this rookie, height and weight are a big disadvantage.
Brooks guarded Linson carefully. Although Lin Sen is also only a sophomore player. Just one year longer than him.
But it's not like he's comparable. He didn't fight Lin Sen in college, and his fame couldn't be compared.
"Aaron defended very hard, but he wasn't in a hurry at all, and it was a good defence, especially since his pace might cause some problems for Wood." Barkley gave Brooks a good rating of his defense.
"But he's so skinny, even thinner than Wood when he first entered the league, and if I'm not mistaken, he replaced AI as the skinniest guy in the league." Kenny. Smith continued.
Linson pulled the ball and turned his back against Brooks.
It's fast, but it's not as passive as the body is on the defensive end. Lin Sen realized this last year, so he chose to gain weight appropriately while strengthening strength exercises.
The rest of the Magic chose to pull away, and Lin Sen singled out rookies like Brooks, and they still believed in Lin Sen's ability.
Boom!
With a blow from his back, Brooks immediately took a half-step back.
Although he was tenacious and got back up, Lin Sen slammed it down for the second time.
Under Linson's impact again, Brooks was knocked back half a step again.
Just as Brooks tried to press it again, Linson slapped the ball and pulled it, and jumped directly on the spot.
"Oh, Wood just turned over and made a jumper, and it wasn't a two-pointer but a three-pointer!" Kenny. Smith shouted.
It was Wood's first three-point shot of the game. A difficult three-point attempt! Barkley looked at Linson and said.
Brooks immediately stopped and jumped immediately, and by the time he finished his jump, Linson had already thrown the ball.
The ball arced through the cheers of the Magic fans in the stadium. Steadily into the basket.
Lin Sen made a three-point gesture with both hands and slashed down from the air, and the cheers in the center of the water house were even higher.
"The first three-pointer, I said Wood couldn't give up his good game, it was his first three-pointer, and the margin was back in double digits." Barkley said with a smile.
"Wood is also a response to T-Mac, he is using his watch to tell SùT-Mac that this is now his territory." Kenny. Smith looked at Brooks with the ball, "I think this attack on Houston will be handed over to T-MAC." ”
Switching offense and defense, rookie Brooks brought the ball to half-court and did not play it himself but Kenny. Smith said he handed the ball to Maddie.
After a tactical run, Linson and Hill opted to switch defenses.
"Wood defends T-Mac, and it's a direct matchup between two generations of Orlando kings and a direct matchup between two No.1s.
The two of them trained together in the summer and must know each other very well, but at the level of their ability, even if they know each other, they are not easy to defend, and Wood's height is an absolute disadvantage, just like he just bullied rookie Aaron. "Kenny. Smith said with a smile.
At this moment, Maddie leaned sideways against Lin Sen, took the ball with her right hand, and the action of holding the ball in one hand made the Magic fans on the scene feel as if they were back in 01.
He trained with Maddie and Kobe Bryant in the summer, and there were many direct conversations between the three, just like Kenny. As Smith said, even if you understand the other party, it is not easy to prevent it.
Not to mention that Linsen's biggest drawback is that his height is far inferior to Maddie, so he can only interfere as much as possible, and it is almost impossible to directly block Maddy head-on.
Lin Sen spread his arms and pressed his chest against Maddie.
Boom!
Maddie bumped into Linson and started dribbling.
After the second impact, Maddie half-turned and confronted Linson.
Lin Sen didn't feel good, staring at Maddie cautiously, his right hand always stretched out in front of Maddie's eyes.
“shit!”
Lin Sen scolded in a low voice, and Maddie in front of him had jumped up in front of him without warning.
"T-MAC pull-up jumper, it's a three-point pull-up!" Kenny. Smith shouted.
Linson jumped up to defend with the quickest reflexes, and then his hand just reached in front of Maddie, who had already thrown the ball.
Linson watched the ball fly over his head and glanced at Maddie's trademark sleepy eyes, and he saw in Maddy's eyes the confidence that must be entered.
Swish!
Tracy gave Wood the most direct response, and he completed the most direct response with a three-pointer, and Tracy made people feel his horror without any celebratory action.
While I'm a die-hard Wood fan, I have to say that Tracy's ability has always been here, and as long as he's serious, even injuries can't stop him. Barkley said as he looked at Maddie who was retreating to the backcourt.
Linson took Milicic's serve and immediately pushed forward.
Just past the center circle, he noticed that it was not Brooks who was waiting for him at a step inside the three-point line, but Maddy, who had just finished the offense in front of him.
For Maddie's defense, Linson originally only stayed in the video highlights, and he trained with Maddy Bryant in the summer to learn how terrible Maddie is when he gets serious about defense.
Lin Sen slowly approached with the ball, and Maddie looked at Lin Sen with worried eyes.
He didn't have much feeling when he fought Lin Sen before, but this was the first time he and Lin Sen had fought in the center of the water house.
Playing in a place where he once fought and ruled, he didn't want to back down, he wanted to tell all the Orlando fans that he had ruled here and was still capable of ruling here even if he left.
The ball swayed back and forth under Linsen's crotch, and Maddie knew that this was Linsen's habitual move, which didn't seem to be threatening, but it revealed countless possibilities.
Lin Sen's eyes looked at Maddy's right, Maddy's height advantage allowed him to let go of Lin Sen a little, even if Lin Sen suddenly jumped and shot the height advantage could make up for it, so he let go of Lin Sen and put some emphasis on defensive breakthroughs.
Linson, who was almost half a body away from Maddie, picked up the pace of his dribble.
Yikes!
The center of gravity of his body plummeted, and Lin Sen sprinted directly.
It was like a cheetah ready to attack lay in ambush for a long time, and then rushed to the prey with all its might.
Maddie quickly adjusted his pace, and in the face of Maddie's defensive reaction, Linson slapped the ball with his right hand.
The ball bounced off the ground from behind and bounced to his left hand, and Linsen's body also bounced to the left with the ball.
With one hand held high, the other hand spread out to expand the area of his defense, while moving his feet to his left.
Just as Maddie moved, Linson's left hand slapped the ball.
The ball hit the ground under the crotch and returned to the right hand, and at the same time, the left foot took a step out of the waist and abdomen, and landed on the right side of Maddie's body.
With the left foot on the ground, the right foot stepped out violently.
The speed was so fast that it could almost tear apart, and in the next second, Lin Sen forced his way through the right side of Maddie's body.
"Wood broke through, he broke through Tracy's defense!" Barkley shouted.
Maddie didn't have much of a change in expression, and by the time he finished turning, Linson was already on the inside.
Facing last season's teammate Tony. Barty, Lin Sen didn't have any politeness.
There was still a step away from the reasonable collision area, and Lin Sen jumped on the ground.
With his right hand, he pulled the ball to the back of his head, and the whole person turned into a big axe.
Facing Tony. Barty's block, right hand smashed the ball to the basket.
This was Wood's direct riposte, and he again used his watch to sùt-mac, and here he was Wood. Lin's territory, he is the new King of Orlando! Barkley shouted.
Letting go of the basket, Lin Sen raised his right hand high, and he was greeted by the cheers of the MVP of the court. (To be continued......)
