[50] Lin Fei: Speed up the finals!
The moment the basketball hollowed into the net, the entire target center arena also exploded in an instant, as if an atomic bomb had been dropped.
Timberwolves (20) :(15) Pistons.
Lin Fei played for only 20 seconds, and completed a break and a three-point shot in the bottom corner, which instantly accelerated the rhythm of the dull game at the beginning of tonight.
You know, this is the NBA Finals.
"Alien" Cassel was the first to rush up and high-five Lin Fei, and said excitedly: "Lin, the broken ball just now is really beautiful!" ”
Lin Fei also smiled brightly: "I admit that I have an element of gambling, but I bet right!" ”
The Wolf King, Si Zebiak and Olovo Kandi also rushed up to high-five Lin Fei, extremely excited.
Compared with this fast-break three-pointer, Lin Fei's god-level break in the process of chasing Hamilton is obviously more precious.
Billups and Hamilton, who made a mistake in passing, looked confused, never expecting that the ball would be cut off by Lin Fei.
Isn't this guy defenseless?
The madmen on the Timberwolves bench, Hassel, Darick Martin and Hojberg also jumped up excitedly and waved towels and shouted Lin Fei's name.
Hassell was excited like a child, and at the same time happy for Lin Fei's performance on the defensive end:
"It seems that I guessed correctly, Lin is really the best choice to chase Hamilton!"
The most pleasantly surprised person is still Philip Saunders, if Lin Fei can really play against Hamilton on the defensive end without suffering, the effect is better than Hassel and the madman,
Then in this round of the finals, he can be said to have both offense and defense, at least the defense is no longer a drag.
In this case, let alone giving Lin Fei enough playing time, even if he is mentioned as a starter, it is not a problem at all.
Philip Saunders was so excited and deeply realized how important a quality 3-and-D player is to the team, which is undoubtedly the best piece of the puzzle to win the championship.
Lin Fei was not sure before he played, after all, his defensive value was only 20 points, but now the facts have made him confident enough, and he is serious about chasing Hamilton.
Many stars in the NBA have a situation where one thing drops one thing and one thing is mutually reinforcing, and Lin Fei finally believes in this now.
In front of the on-site commentary stage, Barkley excitedly repeated what he had just said:
"Who said this guy didn't have defense? This chasing defense and breaking awareness are far better than Hassel and Latrier! ”
Kenny Smith analyzed: "Lin and Hamilton both have top-notch off-ball running awareness, probably because the two are so similar, Lin can predict Hamilton's prediction!" ”
"If a rookie like Lin can play against Hamilton in this round of the finals and don't suffer losses at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, then the Timberwolves' chances of winning will be too big!"
"Kenny, I just want to see Lin play more time, hit more three-pointers, and break all the three-point records in the Finals!"
Celestial Empire, in five sets of live broadcast rooms.
At the moment when Lin Fei broke the ball and counterattacked and hit three points, Director Zhang and host Yang Jian couldn't help but slap the table excitedly and shouted, and even almost burst out with uncivilized words.
"It's amazing! Lin Fei's broken ball is all subconscious, and it seems that it is really a good choice for him to chase Hamilton, who has a highly similar defensive style! ”
"Lin Fei made a steal and a three-pointer in 20 seconds on the court in the finals, which also made him the first Celestial Empire player to score in the NBA Finals!"
"By the way, Director Zhang, Lin Fei broke the ball just now, is this steal going to be recorded on him or Kassel?"
Director Zhang analyzed in a professional tone: "Lin Fei only blocked the basketball, but he didn't control the ball for the first time, and the ball was obtained by Kassel who rushed up!" ”
"Normally, in this case, the steal would be credited to Kassel!"
Yang Jian shook his head and smiled: "It's really a pity, after all, Lin Fei has played three Western Finals in a row, except for the score, all other statistics are zero, by the way, there was an assist in the Western Finals G6!" ”
Director Zhang's face was full of red light, and he said confidently and expectantly: "Don't worry, watch the game well, I believe that our Lin Fei will definitely be able to contribute more energy on the defensive end tonight!" ”
In the text live broadcast room of Sohu and New Wolf, the message post swiped the screen at the speed of light, and the server faced a crash:
"Feige is awesome, it's a broken ball and a three-pointer, and the Pistons are directly beaten, haha!"
"Who would dare to say that my Phineas have no defense? This counterattack fast break is scheduled to be in the top three of the top ten tonight, no problem, right? ”
"Philip Saunders, the coach, is really something, and it can be seen that Lin Fei and Hamilton have similar technical characteristics, so that he can chase and defend better!"
"I don't feel like Philip Saunders saw through everything at all, otherwise we should have let Lin Fei play a long time ago!"
"Woo woo, Fei Ge is so handsome, my mom asked me why I was kneeling and watching TV, and I said I saw someone talking about it!"
Keep your eyes back on the target center arena.
The Pistons attacked, and Lin Fei continued to tirelessly chase Hamilton, like a shadow following the Mask Man.
But Hamilton was a seasoned runner after all, and with more pace, he finally found his way high on the left side of the arc after a blanket cover from Rasheed Wallace.
The wolf king did not change his defense, Lin Fei was half a beat slower around the cover, Hamilton received a pass from Billups, and quickly jumped up to shoot two points.
Philip Saunders reminded the Timberwolves players that once the opponent plays a block and dismantle cover against Lin Fei, they must not change the defense, and must go around the cover to keep up.
Lin Fei can only play against Hamilton without the ball on the defensive end, and if he misplaces against any other ball carrier on the Pistons, the defensive flaws will be exposed instantly.
"Bang dang!"
Although it was a good opportunity, Hamilton may have been too eager to save face, and the ball was a little more powerful and missed.
Big Ben grabbed the offensive rebound, but landed a little away from the basket, and Olowokandi quickly stepped up.
Although he is the champion of parallel imports, he was selected at the beginning, which must indicate that his physical fitness is still very good, but his skills under the basket are too rough.
At 2.13 meters tall, Olovo Kandi weighs 122 kilograms, nearly 270 pounds, and has an arm span of 2.26 meters.
Big Ben passes the ball back to Billups on the outside to reorganize, and Billups deliberately summons a pick-and-roll from Hamilton to misplace the ball to hit Lin Fei.
Lin Fei is familiar with all kinds of cover runs on the offensive end, so the defensive end can also quickly bypass the cover to chase the defender.
Billups took advantage of the gap when Cassel didn't pounce and made a decisive three-pointer from the outside.
In the current Pistons team, Billups has the highest percentage of three-point shots, and his ability to make fouls is also excellent, and his style of play is more inclined to magic ball.
"Huh!"
The ball was there, and the difference was narrowed to 2 points.
Standing on the sidelines of the Timberwolves, Philip Saunders crossed his arms and looked calm, knowing that Billups' opportunity came from the fact that Kassel and Lin Fei did not change their defenses at the first time.
But Lin Fei must not change his guard at this point, he must catch up with him around the cover, otherwise he will become a defensive sieve for the opponent's offensive end.
Besides, it's hard to get this kind of ball shot, and Billups can't take it every time.
The ball converts, and the Timberwolves attack.
This time, it was Hamilton's turn to chase Lin Fei.
"Lin, you don't want to catch a basketball in front of my eyes!"
Lin Fei finally felt Hamilton's helplessness on the offensive end at this time.
Although Hamilton is thin and lacks the physical aggression of Fisher and Kobe, he can really run, predict accurately, and block between Lin Fei and the ball man all the time.
Lin Fei ran around the front court for two laps without getting rid of Hamilton, so he directly chose to squat outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle, pulling Hamilton and helping his teammates open up space.
This effect has actually killed Trenton Hassel, who couldn't shoot accurately.
Szebiak crouched in the bottom corner, and Olovokandi and Big Ben tangled under the basket.
The Timberwolves formed a two-on-two situation, with Cassel and the Wolf King facing Billups and Roaring Tianzun.
"Alien" Cassel played blocking and dismantling with the Wolf King in the high position, misplaced against Rashid Wallace, and broke through the middle to return to the Wolf King.
The latter faced Billups, who was more than 20 centimeters shorter than him, and made a decisive shot with a frame jumper.
Billups interfered with the Wolves as much as he could, and the ball hit the side of the basket and fell out after two laps.
"Smack!"
The rebound was desperately shot by Olowo Kandi, and after Cassell got the ball, he looked at the six ways, pretended to break through the frame, but the basketball in his hand was vigorously passed to the right outside.
"Whoosh!"
Lin Fei successfully shook off Hamilton with a reverse run, and passed through the top of the arc to the right side at a 45-degree angle to receive the ball, but Hamilton's pursuit was also very fast, and he jumped up to block Lin Fei's shot.
Lin Fei didn't think much about it after taking the ball, tilted his body and quickly rose from the ground, facing Hamilton and forcibly throwing the ball.
