Chapter 320: The Second Battle

Yes, Wood was so lonely, he scored a new 28 points in a playoff half in the first half, and he was completely single-handedly fighting against the Spurs, who had a neat lineup.

And in the second half, he was trapped in physical strength and defense, and he still didn't give up the fight, which is why I love Wood as a rookie, who not only has a criminal face but also has a never-say-die spirit. "Charles. Barkley said with some distress.

"Charles, you're right, I feel distressed when I think of the second half when he kept hitting the basket and making fouls when he fell to the floor again and again, I doubt that I have a maternal brilliance, but this is the first game of Orlando, the first Finals of his career, he still has many, many games, and the future tomorrow is still haode." Kenny. Smith said.

The entire Orlando bench was silent, and there was no laughter and laughter of the past. Howard, the big boy who never seemed to know what it was like to be sorrowful, hung his head in frustration.

Tonight was a nightmare night for Howard, who scored just four goals from 14 attempts, five turnovers and six fouls in addition to four blocks. Duncan had 28 points, 14 rebounds, 5 blocks, 5 assists and 3 steals.

Lin Sen looked at his teammates on the field with a little blank eyes, there was not much garbage time left, he thought a lot when he sat on the sidelines, and at this moment a pair of hands grabbed his hand, which was a warm feeling.

Soon there was also a pair of warm hands on his back, and the warmth seemed to pierce the bottom of his heart, and suddenly the depression and pain in his heart dissipated.

Turn your head. It was Natalie who caught my eye. Portman and Carolina both had smiling cheeks.

"You are the leader of the team, how can you give up. This is just the first one. Carolina whispered.

Natalie holding his hand. Portman stroked his stomach with his other hand: "Wood." I know you're not going to back down because he thinks you're proud of you, and when he's born, I'll tell him that he has the most haode dad on shijie, and his dad is a hero to countless people. ”

Although it is very simple, it gives Lin Senmao a feeling at this moment, this is just the first game is not the end of Shijie, even if it is 0:3 or even 0:4 at the moment, losing this series is not the end of the Magic. Because they have a future.

"Xiexie guys!" Lin Sen nodded, giving the two of them a reassuring expression.

At this time, the whistle of the whole game also sounded, and the San Antonio Spurs, who were playing at home, defeated the Magic with a score of 112-95 to win the first game of the finals.

On the data column, only Lin Sen scored a double-double, and only two people scored double-doubles in the whole team, while the Spurs scored double-doubles with 7 players in the team, and the GDP combined with 67 points.

Frustration filled the faces of the Magic players, and in the cheers of the Spurs fans in the stadium, Linson stood up and patted Howard: "Dwight, this is just one game, we have the future, we will definitely be able to do better in the next game, I believe you can do it." Everyone believes that you can do it, and you will not let us down. We can surely see the most haode. ”

Howard looked up at Lin Sen: "I'm sorry. ”

"FUCK, we're brothers, and I've had times when I didn't behave well." Lin Sen said with a smile.

Then Lin Sen, Azubuuk, Milicic and others said one by one, looking at the faces that had regained their fighting spirit, Lin Sen's heart was full of pride.

And Stan. Van Gundy was even more relieved, he had expected the loss before the game, and his biggest fear was that Zuihou lost confidence after the loss rather than being more motivated after the loss.

"Wood seems to be talking to his teammates one by one, and it looks like he's comforting his teammates." Jeff. Van Gundy looked at Linsen and said.

"Yes, it should be comforting, this is a haode leader to do, at least he didn't give up, if as a leader all give up don't have to expect any haode future for this team, I think this game is a valuable asset for Orlando." Kenny. Smith continued.

In a villa in the City of Angels on the east coast of the Pacific Ocean, a man with gray hair wearing glasses was watching TV, and on the screen was the picture of Lin Sen comforting his teammates, and the man smiled at this picture.

"Phil." With a coquettish sound, a pair of hands grabbed the man's neck from behind.

"Wood. Lin, Fill, you are on vacation, so you don't have a good rest. The woman glanced at the screen with a hint of reproach.

"Jenny, I know, I know, it's closed." The man smiled helplessly and turned off the TV, "When did you come, don't say anything." ”

The man who was caught was the famous Zen master Phil. Jackson, and the woman who held him was Lakers owner Jerry. Bath's daughter, Jenny. Bass, she's bigger than Phil. Jackson is 16 years younger and is now the Lakers' vice president.

Also Jerry. Of Buss' seven children, Phil is considered the most likely to take over the Lakers. A large part of the credit for Jackson's return to the Lakers comes from Jenny. Bass.

"Do you watch Spurs or Magic? Spurs are such a tough guy and we have to step over their bodies for revival. "Jenny. Bass sat down to Phil. Jackson's side.

"Not quite, I'm mostly looking at Wood. Lin, I forgot to tell you one thing, this matter is a secret, and it has been well hidden so far. ”

"What's the matter?" Jenny. Bass came interested.

"The Hong Kong men's basketball team wants to invite me to coach."

"Hong Kong? Not Huaxia? Or is there something wrong with my ears? ”

"Jenny, you heard it right, it's Hong Kong, at first I had similar expressions to you, I thought they were joking, but in fact they weren't."

"But Hong Kong is too weak, even if you give more money, I don't think you are short of money."

"But it's different now, they have recruited a lot of players privately, of course, it's unlikely that they want to make a difference in Shijie at the moment, but there is one player I'm interested in."

"It won't be Wood. Lin, right? I heard that he rejected the invitation of Coach K, did he also reject Huaxia and chose Hong Kong. It's incredible. Huaxia has Yao. What does Hong Kong have. ”

"Yes, it's Wood. Lin, some time ago you didn't say you wanted Wood. Lin's? Now Hong Kong has recruited Wood. Lin, and they've recruited quite a few players, and most importantly they also have a naturalised slot, and they've targeted one of a few people and told me that if I want to be the manager, I can provide that spot myself, and they're in charge of working hard. Of course, they offered a lot of money, $10 million a year. ”

"You're ready to say yes?"

"There's a little bit of interest, I want to try my hand at international games, and they're going to build a very good team for me, and of course the players need to improve a lot, I'll see, but I'm interested, and of course if you can get this guy to the Lakers, I like it better."

"I like it too, no one doesn't like players who can bring a lot of value to the team, and this year in Orlando because his market value is skyrocketing. There is no one who is not jealous of them, poor Minnesota. "Jenny. Buzz said with a smile.

After losing the first game of the Finals, the Orlando Magic once again prepared for the second game after a night of recovery. And did not give up completely because of this.

The media across the country thought the game was out of suspense, and Orlan Multimedia began to help Otis. Smith offered a roster of upcoming free agents in the summer, imagining if he could build a super-magic even further.

And the victor's Spurs have not changed in any way because of the winning start, and they are still unfazed for a thousand years.

In such a situation, the second game between the Spurs and the Magic started again. Stern's feared ratings didn't change much because of the first game, not so much as to surprise him, but enough to make him happy.

At the beginning of the game, Dwight. Howard and Linson staged two consecutive aerial relays, which once made the sirens over San Antonio incessant.

Changed formation back to the starting Dako. Milicic also teamed up with Howard to limit the stone Buddha Duncan, who played well in the first game, but Mike. Finley and Tony. Parker's play didn't give the Magic a lead.

At the end of the first quarter, the Magic trailed by just two points.

However, at the beginning of the second quarter, the Argentine demon knife, who led the second team, first hit a three-point shot, then made a steal, and then directly made a long pass to assist Robert. Horry scored, then grabbed a defensive rebound and went straight to the Magic basket, which not only caused the ball to go to the basket, but also caused a foul on Tekoglu.

In just one and a half minutes, Ginobili led the Spurs to a wave of 8-0 spurts to extend the lead to 10 points in one fell swoop, which was also the first time that the Spurs had a double-digit lead in the game.

"Manu continued his good form in the playoffs, Stan called a timeout, he had to contain Manu's form, and at the same time he had to step up the team's offense." Kenny. Smith said as he looked at the Magic players walking to the sidelines.

"Coach, let me play!" Lin Sen stands at Stan. Van Gundy said.

Looking into Linsen's eyes, Stan. Van Gundy nodded: "Okay, Carlos, you take a break." ”

"Actually, Orlando played well in the first quarter today, although Dwight had few opportunities on the offensive end, he did much better than the last game on the defensive end, and Darko's cooperation made Thiem's performance in the first quarter very average, if he maintained the state of the first quarter, Wood broke out again, Orlando is not without chances." Kenny. Smith analyzed.

"But Tim is not so easy to defend, Orlando's interior still needs to step up and share the pressure on Wood, but it's very good that Wood wasn't as tired in the first quarter today as he was in the last game, he just ...... He hit one of his three shots, but he did provide five assists. At this time, the whistle blew for the end of the timeout, and Barkley looked at the sidelines and said loudly, "The timeout is over, Wood actually played early, although Wood was not as tired as the last game, but is it a little early to play?" ”

Quite a few looked at Stan on the sidelines with questioning eyes, just like Barkley. Van Gundy.

Lin Sen straightened his arm guards and tucked the hem of his shirt into his pants. Barty sent the ball out, and Linson let it roll on the floor without hurry.

Popovich, who was sitting in his chair, had no idea that Linson would play so early that there was no Tony on the court. Parker again without Bruce. Bowen, the back line only Brent. Barry and Ginobili.

Robert, small forward. Horry and Oberto and Ellison on the inside are slow. Popovich rushed at Bruce not far away. Bowen shouted, "Bruce." Get ready to play! Mike, you too! ”

Bruce. Bowen and Mike. Finley stood up at the same time. On the field, Lin Sen picked up the ball a little before the halfway line.

Greg called Bruce and Mike up, obviously he also knew that the Spurs' lineup defects on the court were completely driven by Manu alone, and the defensive end was okay in the face of Wood's magic, once Wood played, Wood only had to think about Manu's defense then it was equivalent to a smooth road, whether Wood wanted to play alone or organize this ball. Kenny. Smith looked at Lin Sen on the field and said.

Linson is getting closer and closer to the three-point line, and Ginobili is standing outside the three-point line, and he has studied Linsen a lot as a rookie. Knowing that Lin Sen's most common offensive method is either a breakthrough or a three-pointer, especially an unreasonable three-pointer.

Ginobili, known as the Argentine demon knife, is not only unpredictable on the offensive end, but also not to be underestimated on the defensive end.

Lin Sen got closer and closer, and Ginobili lowered his center of gravity more and more, his feet were spread, his arms were almost fully extended, and his slightly open eyes looked at Lin Sen who was holding the ball in front of him.

He has also studied a lot of Ginobili Linson, but it is more about Ginobili's offensive end, but he does not dare to be careless in the face of Ginobili's defense at the moment.

Lin Sen stopped a step in front of Ginobili, his left and right feet staggered back and forth. His left hand dribbled rhythmically, and his eyes looked at Ginobili in front of him.

This is his return to the game. At the moment, the team is 10 points behind and this attack must be successful.

As the leader of the team, he wanted to launch a clarion call for a counter-offensive with his own hands.

With his left hand, he shook his shoulders sideways, but Lin Sen's small movements did not deceive Ginobili.

Lin Sen's body leaned to the left, and his right foot stepped directly to the right side of Ginobili.

At the same time, the right hand slapped, and the basketball bounced off the left hand after hitting the ground in front of him.

Lin Sen's speed also increased at this moment, and Ginobili had a deep understanding of Lin Sen's speed when the two sides met for the first time, but usually he was very interested in Tony. Parker's speed is very familiar, and his own speed is not slow, and Lin Sen's breakthrough now relies more on speed, so he still has some experience.

The center of gravity shifted to his right side, and his left foot kicked the ground with his right foot and slid quickly on the side, quickly blocking Lin Sen's breakthrough line.

Syllable!

Lin Sen's left hand slapped the ball, and the ball hit the ground from under his crotch to the right side, and at the same time, Lin Sen quickly reversed the turn, and his right hand slapped the ball while completing the turn.

The ball went through the crotch again and came back to the right hand, and then the left foot stepped straight out.

Despite Ginobili sliding as far as he could, he was left behind by Linson.

"Wood's continuous movements, it's so beautiful, how did he come up with it!" Kenny. Smith was extremely amazed by Lin Sen's excellence, but Kobe Bryant in front of the TV shook his head while appreciating Lin Sen's breakthrough, in his opinion, the breakthrough pursues success rather than pleasing to the eye.

And in his opinion, Lin Sen's ball can be a feint when he reverses, and then he doesn't need to break through at all when he directly steps back to make a jumper.

However, today's Linsen is still a long way from Kobe, especially in terms of offensive means.

Linson on the screen rushed to the Spurs inside like a gust of wind, and Ellison on the inside wanted to throw away Tony, who was defending himself. Barty complements Linson.

When he threw Tony away. By the time Barty, Linson had already thrown himself into the air, and Ellison had to give up the idea of making up for it.

Facing the unguarded basket, Lin Sen slashed the ball into the basket with his right hand.

There was a cheer from the Magic bench, and the expressions of the Spurs players on the court did not change in the slightest, Ellison picked up the ball on the floor and quickly sent it to Ginobili, who immediately called a timeout.

"Greg was so careful, Manu asked for a short timeout for a very clear purpose, just to make it easier for Bruce and Mike to play, and wow, Greg also switched to TP early." Kenny. Smith said, looking at the sidelines.

"Everybody knows how bad this old man is, and I don't like him anyway because he let Tim replace me as the number one, so I hate him." Charles. Barkley looked resentful.

After the timeout came back, the Spurs inside line became Oberto plus Roberts. Horry, Ginobili mentioned the small forward position, Mike. Finley and Tony. Parker partners in the guard line.

Lin Sen stared at Tony. Parker, however, passes the ball to Ginobili.

Tekoglu, who was in charge of defending Ginobili, couldn't keep up at all, and easily shook off Tekoglu's Ginobili and went straight to the inside to face Tony. Barty's back-up Ginobili sent the ball straight to Robert. In Horry's hands, Horry under the basket easily sent the ball into the basket.

"Orlando's defense is too loose, if you want to overtake, you must not only have an attack but also a defense, otherwise you can't overtake him with a goal." Barkley said.

Tony. Parker doesn't have a crush on Linson, and he clearly remembers the bad memory of being the rookie background in the first meeting between the two sides.

Just like the last one, Tony. Parker clung to Lin Sen, but Lin Sen had no intention of entanglement with him at all.

While the team was running, Linson dribbled the ball from the top of the arc to the right side at 45 degrees.

Just as Parker was still clinging to him, Lin Sen pushed the ball with his right hand, and the basketball flew away quickly, and his fingers almost wiped Parker's clothes and flew out.

The ball went straight to Chris, who was about forty-five in the middle distance on the left. In the hands of Webb, Robert who was in charge of defending Webb. Horry immediately pounced.

And Linson, who passed the ball, ran directly from Parker's side to the inside line after a virtual shake at the moment when Parker relaxed slightly, and Webb directly pushed the ball.

Robert. Horry jumped hard, but the ball still jumped high over him and flew inside.

"Chris isn't shooting, it's passing, Wood, Wood takes off!" Kenny. Smith shouted.

I saw that Lin Sen, who threw off Parker and cut in from the right side at forty degrees, jumped up directly when he was still one step away from the reasonable collision area.

The right hand received Webb's pass steadily, and the left hand followed with both hands to slam the ball into the basket.
