The Pistons, too, quickly found their offensive rhythm, with Hamilton picking up Rashid to cover Hassel in the middle of the off-ball run, and hitting a high jumper from a pass from Billups.

"Huh!"

Immediately after the breakthrough of the "madman" failed to hit the whistle, Big Ben grabbed the rebound, and the Pistons counterattacked the fast break.

The Timberwolves' return defense was very timely, Billups stabilized the rhythm and played positional battles, and the ball was once again in the hands of Hamilton who was running.

But this time Hassel chased the defense in a timely manner and did not allow Hamilton to get the first chance to shoot after receiving the ball.

Hamilton tried to hold the ball with his back and singled Hassel, but found that he couldn't play at all.

Lin Fei, who was sitting on the bench on the sidelines, saw it really, Hassel's skills and experience in defending the ball were really strong, his steps were steady and solid, his sliding steps were fast, and he didn't lose his position or shake.

Hamilton could only pass the ball back to Billups, who picked up from the outside and attempted a three-pointer.

"Huh!"

There really is.

The two sides opened to a 5-5 draw.

Back to it.

"Madman" and the Wolf King broke through with the ball after blocking and dismantling, this time facing Rasheed Wallace who changed the defense, a realistic worship Buddha after Sprewell's emergency stop, accelerated the change of direction and then burst again, and slipped to the bottom line to make a layup in one go.

"Huh!"

Rashid Wallace was shaken by the series of movements of "Madman", and almost twisted his ankle, waving his fist angrily.

The Pistons attacked, and Hamilton ran without the ball in a row this time, throwing off Hassel to catch the ball and then throw.

The ball was a little more difficult, and the basketball pop-up frame missed.

"Bang dang!"

The Wolves protected the defensive rebound, and the Timberwolves counterattacked and played a positional battle.

After a few days of learning and applying, Hassel has gained more experience when defending Hamilton's off-ball movement, and the effect is naturally much better.

Hamilton, a no-ball master of this level, faces an outside defensive titan who normally does not fall off the chain, and it is not a problem to score 20 points in a game, but it is very difficult to score 30 points.

In Philip Saunders' opinion, Hassell has now basically reached that defensive level.

In the whole finals, four games were played, and in addition to pulling his hips in the first game, Hamilton has been playing three consecutive efficient outputs since the second game against Lin Fei to hold the ball, with an average score of 30+ per game.

Three consecutive finals 30+, even Kobe Bryant does not have this ability, even from the perspective of probability, Hamilton tonight should be iron, right?

Philip Saunders replaced Kassel with Szebiak in the intersession, allowing the "alien" to save his stamina and use it on the blade.

This blade is naturally Lin Fei.

Throughout the first quarter, the Timberwolves shared the same hatred, outperforming the Pistons on both offensive and defensive ends, and always maintained a good lead.

Especially on the defensive end, with the active cooperation of his teammates, the Wolves sent 2 blocks and 1 steal in the first quarter, fully demonstrating the top defensive level of the DPOY level.

Single-quarter battle,

Timberwolves (24) :(17) Pistons.

Seeing that this main lineup with both offense and defense played well, Philip Saunders did not let Lin Fei play in the first quarter, but stayed until the second half of the crucial second quarter.

After the start of the second quarter,

"Madman" took advantage of the Wolf King's blocking and dismantling cover, and broke through Rashid Wallace in a row of misplacements, hitting all of them on a breakthrough layup and a mid-range jumper, and then causing a defensive foul on Rashid's shooting.

"Beep!"

The angry roar Tianzun couldn't hold back a little, and he almost roared at the referee.

Larry Brown frowned and had no choice but to temporarily replace small forward Corris Williams with Roaring Celestial.

As for why he didn't use Oku for change, he was naturally afraid that the Timberwolves would immediately send Lin Fei to punish the Pistons.

The 8 three-pointers in Game G2 of the Finals have always lingered in the minds of Pistons fans.

Oku, who was sitting on the Pistons bench tonight, was already dissatisfied, and at first he was dissatisfied with his lack of playing time in the Finals.

But after G2 in the finals, Oku feels that it is better not to play than to play, otherwise Lin Fei will be killed by Lin Fei in the wrong place, which may have suppressed his offseason signing value.

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

The "madman" who walked to the free throw line made both free throws, and the Timberwolves were united tonight, leading by 10 points after less than 3 minutes in the second quarter.

Corris's play-up made the Pistons' interior height drop significantly, and the Wolves quickly stepped up on the offensive end, and with Big Ben changing defenses, he assisted Olovo Kandi twice in a row to eat easy cakes under the basket.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The parallel champion who scored 4 points in a row was happy, returned to the defensive end and was aggressive, and directly turned over to give Billups, who broke through the penalty area, a big hat in the face.

"Smack!"

The Timberwolves counterattacked the fast break, and the full state was completely played, and the three-point catcher in the bottom corner of the Jersey Biak also hit a hollow shot.

"Huh!"

Timberwolves (36) :(21) Pistons.

In the blink of an eye, the lead has been extended to 15 points.

7 minutes and 12 seconds in the second quarter.

Larry Brown had no choice but to call another long timeout.

The home fans at Auburn Hills Palace Arena began to wilt, and the cheers dropped by dozens of decibels.

"Is tonight's Timberwolves all the blood? So fierce? ”

"Hamilton is a bit of an iron tonight, how did he get six points until now?"

"Let's let Lin play, or we can't stand it a little!"

In front of the commentary stage, Charles Barkley frowned, a little incomprehensible to Larry Brown's substitution:

"Why would Brown be in such a hurry to replace Rashid, he's just a foul?"

"Do you mean ......?"

Kenny Smith continued: "Judging from Rashid's performance on the defensive end tonight, there is indeed something wrong with his form, Ratrier's strength is undoubted, but it is not so clean, right?" ”

On the Timberwolves sideline bench, Lin Fei also observed that the situation on the court of Rasheed Wallace was abnormal tonight, and his right ankle seemed to be affected by some injury.

If it is true, then this is undoubtedly a very good signal for Lin Fei and the Timberwolves.

You must know that Lin Fei can say that the G2 of the finals of the "god" is a huge bargain with the absence of Rashid Wallace.

At this time, Sam Cassel, who was sitting next to him, leaned into Lin Fei's ear and said mysteriously:

"Lin, Rashid has a sprained right ankle, and it's likely a second-degree sprain, with a slight tear in the ligament!"

Listening to Kassel's words, Lin Fei was suddenly surprised, and for a moment he felt that he had crossed into the world of Infernal Affairs, and he twitched his nose and laughed in a low voice:

"Sam, is there really a spy for our Timberwolves on the Pistons?"

Cassel smiled and said, "To be exact, Eric told me, he was my old teammate in the Rockets, and a friend of his worked on the Pistons!" ”

Lin Fei nodded suddenly and said with a smile: "Then your teammate is a great help!" ”

Cassel's face changed and became serious: "Lin, this is great news for us, I am already looking forward to your crazy performance tonight!" ”

"Haha, Sam, it looks like Ratriel should have known about it a long time ago, right? Otherwise, it wouldn't be single-mindedly aimed at Rashid! ”

"Of course, what Chauncey is targeting me, we're going to target Rashid Wallace tonight!"

Lin Fei frowned and nodded, thinking that injuries will always be part of the NBA, and if Kassel is not injured, the Timberwolves even have a chance to sweep the Pistons.

On the court, the timeout came back.

Larry Brown has been replaced by Rashid Wallace again, and he is indeed a tough guy.

Hamilton's catch-and-shoot after running off the ball finally hit the mark, and it also caused a foul on Hassell's shot.

2+1。

"Huh!"

Hamilton also made free throws to help the Pistons stop the bleeding.

The "madman" continued to block and dismantle with the wolf king on the offensive end, and then hit Rashid Wallace in a misplaced position.

This time, Rashid did not change his guard at the first time, and Prince quickly chased after him around the screen.

So the "madman" gave the ball to the wolf king, and the wolf king turned his back and roared Tianzun, turning over and hitting the iron-blooded jumper.

"Huh!"

The second quarter quickly reached the final 3:09.

The Timberwolves withstood a wave of the Pistons' frantic comeback and still led by 12 points.

Philip Saunders finally called a timeout with a smile at this time, and looked at Lin Fei and Cassel on the bench.

"Lin, Sam, it's time for you two to get on!"

"Before half-time, try to extend the margin to 20 points for me!"

After the timeout, Lin Fei and Kassel partnered in the backcourt, replacing "Madman" and Trenton Hassel.

The home fans of the Pistons watched Lin Fei come on the court, and suddenly felt that hope had come again.

"Did Lin play? Suddenly, Hamilton rises! ”

"With our Pistons Five Tigers here, Lin Xiu wants to hit a three-point shot on the offensive end again!"

"Is Sanders still so superstitious about the Celestial Empire's draft and three-point shooting? It's okay, there's hope for a reversal! ”

It can be heard from the cheers of the Pistons fans at home that the Pistons fans have belittled Lin Fei's performance on the defensive end, and also think that his three-point shooting is no longer magical.

Of course, from a certain point of view, these Pistons fans are also afraid of Lin Fei's three-point shot in their hearts, and hate his 1.3-second kill in the finals G2.

Lin Fei, who walked onto the court, walked lightly and didn't care about the hustle and bustle of the home fans at all.

Since so many Pistons fans are looking forward to him playing, of course he has to put on a good show.

"Lin is on the field, and sure enough, he is partnered with Sam, and it seems that Philip Saunders has found the best way to use this sniper rifle!"

"The Pistons Five Tigers basically played the whole half, and their physical strength has been seriously depleted now, but Lin and Sam are full of blood!"

On the court, the Timberwolves' offense.

Szebiak served to Sam Cassel on the touchline and then quickly settled into the bottom left corner to open up space.

Billups defended tightly, not giving Cassel room to shoot and pass easily, leaving only room for him to break through.

Kassel dribbled sideways to drive Billups' defense, while also carefully observing the situation up front and the position of his teammates.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Fei suddenly started to run to the left from the right outside line, first made a cover for Kassel who was holding the ball on the outside line, and waited until the moment when Kassel started to break through on the right side.

Lin Fei quickly turned over and rushed again, and borrowed a high-quality cover from the wolf king in the high position on the left.

Straight into the left near a 30-degree angle.

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, Cassel broke through the penalty area on the right side of the field, and suddenly a long horizontal pass, in the moment when Billups had no time to react,

flew into Lin Fei's hands accurately.

At this time, Hamilton bypassed the cover of the wolf king and quickly caught up, and Lin Fei seized this fleeting opportunity at a 30-degree angle on the left side, bent his bow and arrows, and made a lightning shot.

Hamilton's save was still only 0.1 seconds away, and he couldn't help but sigh that Cassel's grasp of the timing of the pass was really incomparable to the wolf king and the "madman".

Maybe it was because the last game was hidden in the snow, or maybe Kassel's pass was too risky, and Lin Fei's speed of catching the ball was too fast.

In short, the basketball bounced on the basket and jumped out with a "clang".

But the ensuing Wolves were quick and grabbed the offensive rebound before Rashid Wallace.

After landing on the ground, facing Big Ben's bag, the wolf king quickly turned the ball back to Cassel.

Kassel also faked a real pass, and with a flick of his left wrist, the ball flew to the right side of the pitch like an eye again.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Fei didn't stop after missing the shot, and hit the right 0-degree angle from the baseline with the help of the cover of Olovo Kandi and Big Ben.

After all, Hamilton played the first half, and at this time there was already a problem with his physical strength, and it was a little difficult to chase Lin Fei, who was full of blood.

What's more, Lin Fei's ability to borrow cover has always been the best in the league.

Man to ball to.

Lin Fei, who rushed to the 0-degree angle on the right side, almost turned over, and the basketball flew directly into his hands.

The ball flew almost against Hamilton's side face, and Kassel was able to pass the ball well, but it was very difficult.

Seeing Hamilton who quickly pounced on him from two meters away, Lin Fei's brain was running rapidly, and he had already calculated everything, and suddenly pulled up in place, facing Hamilton to make up for one.

This opportunity is a little better than the chance of a 30-degree angle on the left side, and Lin Fei's basketball shooting feeling is very perfect and flawless.

"Huh!"

The long-lost crisp sound of the net finally sounded again, and this was only the second three-pointer Lin Fei hit in the last three games at the Upper Palace Arena in Auburn.

Hamilton shook his head and sighed, his gaze sharpened.

Only then did Lin Fei catch the ball these two times, and it was obvious that the passer Cassel had become more adventurous and bold.

If it had been placed before, the wolf king and the "madman" would rarely pass such a risky ball.

The Pistons fans at home saw Lin Fei come up and score another three-pointer, and instantly felt that their faces were swollen.

"This ...... Why did this guy get in again? ”

"I only hit one of the two shots, and the three-point shooting rate is 50%, so don't panic!"

“Wate？ Don't panic about a 50% three-point shooting rate? ”

"Hamilton hits, give me a hard punishment on the offensive end, this defensive colander!"

On the court, the Pistons attacked, and the ball was naturally given to Hamilton with his back, and Lin Fei was singled on the right side.

But this time, Lin Fei was full of energy, focused and nervous, and very well imitated Hassel's defensive style, which interfered with Hamilton's turn-over pull-up jump shot to a certain extent.

"Bang dang!"

Olovo Kandi pulled the basketball out on top of Big Ben's head for the first time, and the Wolves got the ball and rolled over and quickly gave it to Kassel, and the Timberwolves played a fast break.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Fei threw off Hamilton for the first time and flew down, and in the process of going straight to the bottom corner of the right side, he suddenly stopped and ran back, rushing towards the three-point line at the top of the arc.

Si Zebiak just arrived at the fastest speed and gave Lin Fei a good quality cover.

Lin Fei rushed to the left 0 degree angle again, and Kassel's pass came very timely.

Lin Fei almost stepped on the left 0-degree angle before receiving the basketball, and jumped up directly after landing in the position.

The body that was in the air also had an angle of leaning outward because of the running inertia, and took advantage of the small space of less than one meter from Hamilton, and quickly raised his hand to shoot the basketball.

This can already be said to be a difficult floating shot from a negative angle.

"Huh!"

Lin Fei hit a three-point shot and hit it again.

The second.

In less than 1 minute, he scored two three-pointers in a row, one at a 0-degree angle on the left and right sides, and the noise and noise of the Auburn Hills Palace Arena were instantly suppressed.

Charles Barkley in front of the commentary desk was very excited, his eyes were round, his expression was exaggerated, and he slapped the table and shouted:

"It's back, the forest we know is back!"

"Sam's precise passing and Lin's sharp and intelligent off-ball movement, as well as his supernatural shooting touch after receiving the ball, have been perfectly combined!"

"There's no doubt that this is the art of the NBA court!"

As Lin Fei scored 6 points in a row, the Timberwolves' lead instantly came to 18 points, and the advantage became more and more obvious.

Philip Saunders is also very emotional, he has never wanted to hide Lin Fei in the finals, and always tries to find the best way to use Lin Fei.

And this trust has finally paid off in tonight's battle of Tianwang Mountain.

Larry Brown shouted from the sidelines to control the mistakes and quickly return to the defense to not give the Timberwolves a chance to counter and break quickly.

In his opinion, as long as the Timberwolves are forced to play positional battles, it will be difficult for Lin Fei to get the opportunity to catch the ball.

Billups blocked and dismantled Hamilton in the front court, misplaced and took advantage of Cassel's failure to catch up, seized the opportunity to decisively force a shot, and there were.

"Huh!"

Looking back, the Timberwolves fought positional battles.

Lin Fei continued to run sharply off the ball in the front court, and the Wolves and Szebiak put on an elevator door to cover at the top of the arc.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Fei quickly reversed the arc as he crossed the forbidden area, penetrating through the elevator door like a snake.

Hamilton couldn't get around the elevator door in time, and Prince on the left quickly switched up.

Facing Prince's pair of long arms, Lin Fei naturally did not stop, and with the help of another cover raised by the wolf king, he quickly rushed from the top of the arc to the right 45-degree angle.

This time Prince and Hamilton were both left behind, and Rasheed Wallace, who defended the Wolves, had to make up for it.

"Whoosh!"

meanwhile

Cassel, who had already broken through the basket, suddenly turned over and passed back, and the ball flew out of Rashid's side and fell accurately into Lin Fei's hands.

It was obvious that Rasheed Wallace was affected by a sprain in his right ankle that affected the rhythm of the switch.

After receiving the ball, Lin Fei was not absolutely confident, but he still looked cold and did not hesitate, and jumped up decisively in the face of the roaring Tianzun's pounce.

"Huh!"

The third.

Lin Fei, who won the third yuan in a row, finally vented all the grievances in the finals G3 and G4.

After landing in style, he turned over and waved his fist fiercely, shouting at the Pistons fans in the audience:

"I'm so sorry guys, the one you hate the most, I'm back!"
