Chapter 52: As You Wish [3/3]
Adjusting his pace, Lin Sen knew that Brand was not so easy to deal with, but the strong desire to challenge made his blood boil all over his body.
For Linsen, who ranked third overall in physical fitness in Orlando training camp, it wasn't impossible to put on a challenging dunk.
Although Lin Sen has left the impression that many people like gambling actions, Lin Sen himself knows that he will never fight unprepared battles, and Lin Sen will not act rashly if he is not ready for the future.
Only two meters away from Brand, Lin Sen's eyes were full of longing.
Brand stared closely at the rookie who rushed in front of him, and raised his right hand high, he wanted to give this arrogant rookie a hot pot.
Tell him with practical actions that his Elton Brand penalty area is not so easy to challenge.
For!
Lin Sen kicked up on the ground when he was still a meter away from Brand.
The difference between the height of 193 and the brand of 203 is not so big, but the difference in size makes people can't believe that Lin Sen, a rookie, dares to challenge, in the eyes of most people, Lin Sen is committing suicide, and this shijie always has a kind of person who is a madman in the eyes of ordinary people, and Lin Sen is exactly like this at this moment.
The right arm is fully open, the right hand pulls the ball behind the head, and the body is drawn into a full bow in the air.
Meet the lights of Staples in the bustling City of Angels.
Lin Sen used his practical actions to tell everyone that yellow people can also fly.
Brand jumped up with his right hand raised, and he realized that the rookie in front of him would be so terrifying.
This is very different from the yellow race in his impression.
The basket was behind Brand, less than two metres away from him.
Boom!
Although Lin Sen was ready to collide, the moment the two collided, Lin Sen felt that he was almost about to fly out.
Linson thought of his own back lane, using his air-scanting ability and physicality to force out of Brand, before deciding whether to shoot or pass the ball himself.
The irrepressible excitement in the eyes of the fans, the anticipation of wanting to see him embarrassed, accompanied by a noisy boo, drilled into Linsen's heart.
"the!"
Choosing the back path is undoubtedly his own denial of himself.
He remembered what Cassel had said before he left the game: "Always believe in yourself." ”
The left hand pressed Brand's body, cushioning the huge momentum that Brand brought him.
"No one can stop me!"
With a roar, his waist and abdomen twisted.
Grabbing the ball with his right hand and slamming it into the basket with maximum force, Brand in front of him fanned his raised arm into the air.
All the boos came to an abrupt end at this moment.
Bang!
Across Brand, Linson stuffed the ball into the basket hard.
Pulling the basket, Lin Sen avoided falling down in embarrassment with all his strength.
The whereabouts of Brand have completely become the backdrop for Linson's buckle, and Clippers fans at the Staples Center can't believe the scene in front of them.
What they expect is going in the exact opposite direction.
Releasing the basket, Lin Sen jumped to the floor and glanced up at Elton Brand not far in front of him.
At this moment, the Staples Center is not only silent, but also as if it has been drained of its soul.
Turning to stare around the auditorium, their faces were completely shocked, and they still couldn't believe the fact that he was holding off their proud captain.
Devin Casey smiled helplessly as he looked at Lin Sen, who was standing proudly under the basket.
Mike Dunleavy immediately called a timeout, and he could not have imagined that in just two minutes, the eight-point lead would be gone.
And the culprit is undoubtedly Livingston, who is restricted on both offensive and defensive ends.
The silence was followed by an eruption, and soon Linson was responded with loud boos from the fans who reacted.
The boos in Lin Sen's ears were the most haode cheers, just like others recognized him the most.
If he is a dispensable person, then he will definitely not be recognized by boos, which is the truth that Lin Sen has understood since he played.
"Good job, Wood, but then you need to sit on the bench and rest, Mike, you replace Wood......" Devin Casey quickly arranged.
And Mike Dunleavy fiercely criticized Livingston's performance on the court, and Livingston lowered his head and was very unwilling.
When the timeout returned, Livingston had lost the chance to prove himself in Linson, but poor Mike James became Livingston's outlet.
Mike James, who had hoped to perform well off the bench, was met by a furious Livingston.
The tall Livingston, with his strong faith, made Mike James disappear from the field.
Livingston not only excelled on the defensive end, but also provided assists on the offensive end.
Linson's dunk led by one point was quickly lost, and the Clippers extended their lead to seven points again in the fourth minute of the second quarter.
Linson and Garnett reappeared, while the Clippers' Brand and Cassel also returned.
Although Linson contributed 15 points in the first quarter, 9 of them were scored under Livingston's defense, and more importantly, in the face of Kassel's offense in the first quarter, Linson's defense completely failed.
However, Lin Sen, who was resting on the bench, also kept thinking about replaying the matchup between himself and Cassel, which made him achieve good results when he faced Cassel again in the second quarter.
At the end of the first half, although Cassel scored another six points on Linson, more often than not, Linson was no longer as completely passive as in the first quarter.
Linson also learned from Kassel's defense on the defensive end, forcing Kassel to go inside.
Constantly pestering Kassel with his speed advantage, and never let Kassel have a chance to shoot easily.
And Linson's okay defense against Kassel also made the Clippers' offensive rhythm a little chaotic, and they could have relied on Brand to open up the situation, but Brand was also in average shape against Garnett.
Margeti was very uncomfortable by Hassel today, only Mobley is a strong point, but unfortunately Mobley didn't feel good today.
Devin Casey watched the big screen at 56:58, with the Timberwolves trailing by two points, and he was already happy with that score.
After a 20-minute break, the second half continued.
Linson's pick-and-roll combination with Garnett became an undefensible superweapon, and with Garnett's cover, Linson's options became more diverse.
And the Clippers also recovered a little in the second half, and before they knew it, the game came to the fourth quarter with two minutes left.
The Clippers fans in the stadium looked at the scoreboard, and they were still two points ahead of the Timberwolves at home, which they could not have imagined before the game.
"Defend! Defend! Defend! ”
Clippers fans cheered the Clippers on with a uniform shout, hoping that the Clippers would be able to take the victory they deserved in two minutes.
Linson dribbled the ball past half-time and Livingston pressed up again.
In these few minutes, Linson has played more of a traditional playmaking guard role under Livingston's defense.
In Livingston's view, Linson scored 19 points in the first half, and only scored 5 points in the second half so far, especially in the fourth quarter, in the 5 minutes of his defense, Linsen didn't score a point, and twice successfully let Linsen shoot iron.
This undoubtedly boosted Livingston's confidence.
And that's the main reason why Mike Dunleavy put Cassel off the court.
However, Livingston ignored Linson's assist stats in this game, which has unwittingly climbed to 14, which is the main reason why the Timberwolves were able to score only two points behind.
"You're a little silent right now, it's not you!" Livingston said with a smile.
Without waiting for Lin Sen to answer, Livingston continued: "Why, didn't you dare to come after being defended twice by me? ”
Lin Sen looked at Livingston, who was eager to say that you were coming to attack, and smiled helplessly: "Are you looking forward to being beaten by me?" ”
"Really? The first verse was just an accident, and there is a kind of you trying it now. Livingston said disdainfully.
"I will never refuse a request, as you wish."
As soon as Lin Sen's voice fell, the whole person moved.
