With Lin Fei hitting three three-pointers in a row, the Timberwolves' lead quickly came to 19 points.

Larry Brown looked grim and called a long timeout decisively.

Obviously, the Timberwolves have already discovered Rashid Wallace's right ankle injury, otherwise tonight's "madman" and Lin Fei would not have been in the positional battle many times to roar at Tianzun.

At this time, there was only 1 minute 02 seconds left until the end of the first half.

The Pistons fans at Auburn's home court in the palace looked depressed and were frightened by Lin Fei's three consecutive three-pointers.

"How do you feel like Rashid isn't in shape tonight? His change of guard is noticeably slower! ”

"I can't let Lin go on like this anymore, even if it's a villain, I have to take this Celestial Dynasty kid down, these three points are too scary!"

"This Sam's pass is really something, one dares to pass and one dares to throw, and he can really score if he throws, which is too incomprehensible, right?"

"Before the end of the half, you must not let the difference be stretched to 20 points, otherwise it will be really difficult to turn the tables in the second half!"

Celestial

In the five live broadcast rooms of the Celestial Empire.

"Lin Fei is back, Lin Fei's three-point shot is back!"

Director Zhang shouted excitedly, quite full of emotion, and his sunken eye sockets shone with brilliance.

"It seems that with the return of Sam Cassel, Philip Saunders has also realized the most correct way to use Lin Fei!"

"A player like Lin Fei should be the sixth man on the team's bench, always maintaining abundant physical fitness, plug and play, ready to give the opponent the most terrifying firepower blow at any time!"

"Of course, the whole Timberwolves played well tonight, and they obviously deserve more than the Pistons to win this battle of Tianwang Mountain!"

"Lin Fei also proved with his wonderful performance on the field that he can not only help the team when it is behind, but also add icing on the cake when the team is ahead!"

Yu Jia, the host next to him, asked:

"Director Zhang, in your opinion, Lin Fei was able to sweep away the haze of G3 in the finals tonight and regain his style as a three-point marksman, what is the reason?"

Director Zhang's face was full of red light, and the head of the analysis was the way:

"Fans who actually know the ball can also see that Philip Saunders re-asked Lin Fei to return to the bench and play in the last 3 minutes of the second quarter, so that in terms of physical fitness and energy, he has an absolute advantage over the Pistons Five Tigers who played almost the first half!"

"Then there is the return of Kassel, which makes the Timberwolves' ball more threatening in the offensive half, which also shows that Lin Fei is in great need of an excellent point guard partner!"

Speaking of this, Director Zhang couldn't help but start to worry about the Heavenly Empire men's basketball team's competition in this year's Olympic Games, because there is no point guard in the national team who can highly match Lin Fei's off-ball ability.

The basketball players of the Celestial Empire have always been inside-based, and there is a shortage of talent on guards, far from reaching the world's high level, especially on point guards.

For example, Liu Wei, the starting point guard in the men's basketball team today, is good at scoring, and when he teamed up with Da Yao, he just gave the ball to Da Yao.

Speaking of Liu Wei's real ability to control passes, not to mention Sam Kasselby, even compared with the "madman" and the wolf king, there is a big gap.

Quickly putting away the thoughts in his heart, Director Zhang continued to speak:

"And this third point, that is, there were some small problems with the Pistons' overall change of defense tonight, especially in Rashid Wallace, which also gave Lin Fei an opportunity!"

"The infinite change of the Pistons Five Tigers' three-point catch-and-shoot is also the key reason why he can't get a chance to shoot in G3, but no matter how impeccable the defense is, there will be negligence after all!"

Fans from all over the Celestial Empire who watched the finals live on TV and online text,

At this time, they were also very excited, and even burst into tears, the Fei Ge they were looking forward to was finally back.

"Oh my God, Phineas is back, and the Detroit Pistons will lose!"

"The three three-pointers just now were too risky, and Cassel's pass was also very bold, and every time he was on the verge of a mistake, he was crazy to try!"

"Who said that Lin Fei didn't have a chance to play in the finals? Who said the Timberwolves couldn't beat the Detroit Pistons? Come out, brother promises not to kill you! ”

"Haha, leading by 19 points at halftime, this Tianwang Mountain is stable, and the Pistons are obviously fully suppressed by the Timberwolves tonight!"

"The wolf king played really well tonight, no longer obsessed with scoring, and the defensive end is too powerful!"

"Is the "madman" close to 20 points at halftime? Is this the rhythm of the sudden death of the roaring Tianzun? ”

"Phineas hit 10 three-pointers tonight, and there's still a chance to fight for FMVP, right?"

"To be honest, the whole Timberwolves team played really well tonight, and Sam Cassel's return is too crucial, and it completely stimulates the fighting spirit of the whole team!"

"Don't be too optimistic, the Pistons are very resilient, not to mention that this is still someone's home field, maybe you can recover 15 points in the second half of the first quarter!"

Island nation, big board.

In a business hotel in cooperation with the International Athletics Grand Prix.

A tall and good-looking Celestial Empire track and field athlete is watching the live broadcast of the NBA Finals on TV in his guest room.

This track and field athlete is none other than Liu Xiang, the national player in the 110-meter hurdles.

Liu Xiang felt extremely excited about his fellow countryman Lin Fei's wonderful performance in front of countless black players on the other side of the ocean, and at the same time deeply inspired himself.

In the 110-meter hurdles race of the International Athletics Grand Prix Big Board Station, which just ended this morning,

Liu Xiang ran a career-best time of 13.06 seconds, beating Alan Johnson to win the championship.

Lin Fei, as a Celestial Empire guard player, made Liu Xiang strengthen his beliefs and dreams in the NBA Finals with a classic 1.3-second stunner.

He believes that Asian-American athletes can also reach the top of the world in track and sprint.

For the Yadian Olympics in August, Liu Xiang is full of confidence, and also looks forward to the Tianchao men's basketball team with Da Yao and Lin Fei can also achieve historic results.

Look back at the Auburn Hills Palace Arena.

After a timeout, the Pistons scored two points with back-to-back offensive rebounds.

The Timberwolves attacked, and as Lin Fei misplaced to face Rashid Wallace, another catch-and-shoot three-pointer soared.

"Huh!"

The first half of the game ended.

Timberwolves (57) :(37) Pistons.

Entering the halftime with a huge advantage of a full 20 points, the momentum of winning the battle of Tianwang Mountain away is very good.

In the first half, he was targeted by "Madman" and Lin Fei in a row, which made "Roaring Heavenly Venerable" Rashid Wallace angry, and when he walked back to the locker room, he slammed his fist on the wall of the player's tunnel.

The players on the Timberwolves' side were in a good mood, and Si Zebiak patted Lin Fei's shoulder and smiled:

"Lin, I've been waiting for you for two times, and the pervert we are familiar with is finally back!"

Hearing Si Zebiak call himself a "perverted quasi", Lin Fei's expression also flew with a smile.

Waiting for the next new season, will the titles of "Lin Ritian" and "Lin Hao" also be buckled on his head one step ahead of Curry?

Lin Fei only played the last 3 minutes of the first half tonight, barely dropped the chain on the defensive end, and was full of firepower on the offensive end, shooting 4 of 5 three-pointers and scoring 12 points in a row.

Sam's wonderful pass and roaring Tianzun's ankle injury made Lin Fei unstoppable on the offensive end of the court, and the Pistons who shot were helpless.

Philip Saunders summed up the first half, and the Timberwolves played the best first half of the Finals tonight, and the second half was naturally to continue this momentum and stick to the strategy of both offensive and defensive ends.

"Lin, you're probably going to continue to play at the end of the third quarter or the beginning of the last quarter, and you'll be caught off guard by the Pistons!"

"Of course, what I'm looking forward to the most is that we have already sealed the win in advance!"

Lin Fei nodded seriously, this kind of arrangement of playing a game for more than ten minutes as a substitute seems to be more suitable for his current situation in Lin Fei's opinion, and it is more reasonable than starting the battle.

In the finals, G3 Lin Fei's pressure on the defensive end was too great, and Philip Saunders believed in his defense too much, which directly led to the abnormality of the offensive end.

At half-time, in the home dressing room.

Larry Brown continues to stress the team's defense, more wary of Sam Cassel's spooky passes than Loops.

"We have to get back to winning G3 and G4, don't think about how many points we've fallen behind at halftime, and treat the third quarter as the final battle of life and death tonight!"

At this time, the Pistons team doctor who had examined Rasheed Wallace's right ankle looked solemn, looked up at Larry Brown and shook his head:

"Rashid's right ankle sprain is already very bad, and there are obvious signs of a tear in the ligament!"

"In the second half of the game, it will definitely not be played!"

There was a moment of silence in the locker room, and Larry Brown and several other Pistons key players knew exactly what the absence of Rasheed Wallace meant for the Pistons' defense.

In the finals G2 Lin Fei's crazy performance at the last moment, it was like a god descending from the heavens, and it was clearly visible in everyone's minds at this time.

Memet Oku shivered coldly, he was going to be shot by Lin Fei again in the second half?

However, at this time, Rashid Wallace's eyes were cold, his fists were clenched, and he suddenly gritted his teeth and spoke: "Shut it up, I must play in the second half!" ”

"Even if I lose, I will fight with my brothers!"

Larry Brown turned his gaze to the Pistons team doctor, who hesitated for a moment before finally nodding solemnly.

After the start of the third quarter, Lin Fei continued to sit on the sidelines to rest, chatting and laughing with Si Zebiak who was sitting next to him.

In the first half, he scored 12 points in a row after 3 minutes, and he didn't have to be targeted too much on the defensive end, and when the Pistons on the court were tired, Lin Fei went on the court to continue to work.

For Lin Fei, tonight's battle of Tianwang Mountain is simply not too beautiful.

Why do you feel that some young people don't talk about martial arts?

On the court, the Pistons' offense was picked up by Billups high and Rasheed Wallace.

After taking a step out of place, he divided the ball and gave the roaring Tianzun to the down, and took advantage of the gap when the wolf king was replaced, and decisively jumped straight arm jumper.

"Huh!"

The ball is there.

ball conversion,

"Madman" received a pass from Cassel, continued to play with the Wolves at the top of the arc, and misplaced Rashed Wallace.

This is completely a leg and foot to be beaten to death!

The NBA Finals are like that, if a key player doesn't do well on the court, then he will really be targeted to death by the opponent.

Curry, who won the 2016 World Finals, was like this, and it was also his most criticized year in the Finals.

After a series of stop-and-go changes, "Mad Man" had an acceleration that completely passed Rashid Wallace and a low-handed layup.

Big Ben didn't make up for the ball, and just when the "madman" was ready to land and return to defense, a vigorous and terrifying posture suddenly jumped on his side.

"Smack!"

In the crunch, the basketball that flew to the highest point, and Rasheed Wallace, who was turned over to catch up, slapped a big hat and flew on the tempered rebound.

"Bang!"

The basketball bounced back and landed directly in Wallace's hand, and there was a crunch in his right ankle when it landed, but he didn't feel the slightest pain.

"Whoosh!"

The ball quickly got to Billups, and the Pistons countered and rushed on a fast break.

Hamilton ran outside the three-point line at a 45-degree angle on the right side by covering the off-ball, shook off Hassel and took the ball decisively.

"Huh!"

Hamilton, who scored only eight points in the first half, hit a three-pointer on his first shot in the third quarter.

Inspired by Rashid Wallace's closed play, the Pistons rekindled their fighting spirit and quickly seized the initiative on both offensive and defensive ends.

Si Zebiak, who was sitting on the bench on the side of the Timberwolves, frowned, and said to Lin Fei beside him:

"This Rashid came up in a much better state in the second half, and there was no sign of injury in one attack and one defense, could it be that his right ankle was a fraud?"

Lin Fei also carefully observed every movement of Rashid Wallace on the field, and guessed: "He should be closed!" ”

Si Zebiak's gaze was also a little solemn, and he nodded:

"After all, it's the finals, one step away from the O'Brien Cup, who is willing to give up easily after a season's hard work?"

"It seems that tonight's battle of Tianwang Mountain, it's not so simple for us to win!"

Listening to his good friend's sigh, Lin Fei suddenly thought of something, looked at Si Zebiak and reminded:

"Wally, you also have an old ankle injury, no matter how difficult it is in the future, I don't recommend you to play closed for the game, remember that life is always bigger than basketball!"

In Lin Fei's impression, Sizebiak's ankle injury became very serious in the 04-05 season.

He also played behind closed doors for the game, which had a direct impact on his recovery and career.

If Szebiak can overcome the impact of his ankle injury in this parallel world, then the ceiling of his career will inevitably reach a whole new level.

As a good friend, Lin Fei felt that it was necessary for him to remind Si Zebiak.

On the court, Philip Saunders adhered to the offensive strategy,

After the "madman" blocked and dismantled, it was still the point of Rashid Wallace, but this time the roaring Tianzun defended very well, and the "madman" could only barely make a mid-range jumper.

"Bang dang!"

The basketball hit the iron, the rebound was protected by Big Ben, and the Pistons went on a fast break.

The Timberwolves' defense was fast, and Billups decisively chose to force Kassell's point, and with his body to break through to the outside of the box, it was suddenly a high throw.

Big Ben under the basket opened the Olovo Candika position successfully, and the basket took off to grab the ball, completing a violent empty dunk.

"Boom!"

This goal, Olovo Candi didn't have time to cut the big book at all, and if he wanted to get started, he could only pay for a foul in vain to make the opponent 2+1.

Less than 2 minutes into the second half, the Pistons quickly launched a wave of 7:0 to narrow the 20-point deficit to 13 points.

Timberwolves (57) :(44) Pistons.

Philip Saunders felt a hint of danger and did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly called a long timeout to the referee.

"Sam, you get out of the game, Szebiak is up, play against Prince, and Latrier will go to guard Chauncey!"

"Madman" is naturally obligatory, he can't get used to Billups the kid the most, and often either uses physical strength to target the injured Kassel, or targets Lin Fei through blocking and dismantling.

"Don't blindly switch defenses to play Rashid, his defensive state is obviously much better than on the field, probably because of the closed injection!"

"Szebiac singled out Prince for a few shots, and Kevin and Olovokandi had to work hard to grab offensive rebounds and create a second chance to score!"

Philip Sander is not in a hurry to replace Lin Fei, since it is the secret weapon of the team's Tianwang Mountain, he must calm down and play at the most suitable time.

Pause back.

Through this offensive and defensive tactical adjustment, the Timberwolves quickly stabilized the situation and successfully limited the Pistons' wave of chasing points.

He also holds a double-digit lead at all times.

Pistons head coach Larry Brown on the sidelines couldn't sit still a little and shouted at the players on the defensive end to be tough, tough.

I just don't know what this "tough" means.

In the final 2:09 of the third quarter, an unexpected situation suddenly occurred on the court.

The Timberwolves' offense, the "madman" hit Big Ben who turned over under the basket in a cover break, and fell to the ground with a very painful expression.

"Bang!"

"Beep!"

The referee blew the whistle quickly and gave Big Ben a shooting foul at the first time.

Big Ben spread his hands to the referee with an innocent face, indicating that he was focused on the ball.

Philip Saunders, Lin Fei and Cassel on the sidelines of the Timberwolves stood up in fright, their faces extremely worried.

When Ben Wallace and "Mad Man" collided in the air under the basket, all three of them could see clearly that Sprewell's left knee collided directly with Big Ben.

If the knee is damaged, the "madman" will definitely not be able to play in tonight's game, which is definitely bad news for the Timberwolves.

But Lin Fei and Kassel never imagined that worse news was yet to come.

Garnett was the first to rush up to protect Sprewell, who had fallen to the ground, and angrily spewed trash talk at Ben Wallace.

"If you can't hit the ball, you want to waste people? Do you still want a fucking face? ”

"Kevin, you bastard, see you in the underground parking lot if you have the ability!"

The wolf king squatted beside the "madman" who fell to the ground at this time, raised his head and looked at Daben standing two meters away, and directly gritted his teeth and said:

"I see Nima!"

The most intolerable thing in Ben Wallace's life is that someone scolds his mother, but tonight Big Ben's mother also came to the scene and sat in the second row on the sidelines.

"I'm going to kill you!"

The angry Ben Wallace couldn't control his emotions anymore, and rushed up directly, grabbed the wolf king's jersey with his left hand, and lifted the opponent up.

The right palm was clenched into a fist bigger than a sandbag, and he was about to beckon towards the wolf king's chin.

The wolf king's kung fu was good enough, but seeing that he was caught by Big Ben, he didn't have the strength to break free at all, and he was suddenly a little cowardly.

The strength of this upper limb of Big Ben is the horror of Jinnyima.

However, cowardice is only a matter of a moment, and the wolf king knows that this is the NBA Finals, and hundreds of millions of fans around the world are watching the live broadcast of the Finals.

Thinking of Kassel's closed play, thinking of the "madman" carrying a bag of explosives to hit the inside line,

The wolf king instantly felt that he could do it again, so while trying his best to break free from the restraints on the big book, he stepped back and waved his fist again and again:

"You let go of Lao Tzu, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill you with one punch!"

Big Ben was almost laughed at by the wolf king, although he was angry, he still retained the last sanity, if he really punched first, then this round of the finals would not be played again.

Did I hear me right? You coward who crawled out of the trash can and is going to punch me to death? Come on, I'll let you punch you three times first, if you can't kill me, you'll have to die! ”

Daben fiercely provoked the wolf king, trying to find a chance for himself to defend too much.

The clash between the two occurred in an instant, and the players and referees of the two teams reacted and hurriedly rushed up to stop it.

Billups and Prince both hugged Big Ben, and Zerbilak and the "madman" who endured the pain in his knees also got up and stood around the wolf king.

Rashid Wallace and Olovokandi also had some physical contact as they rushed up and came close to getting into a big fight.

Substitutes from both teams also rushed up.

In a crisp sound of "stabbing", between the violent pulling, the jersey on the wolf king was directly torn to pieces by Ben Wallace, and then the two were quickly separated, and the referee stopped in the center.

The clashes were brought under control and did not escalate into serious group fights.

Seeing the big wolf king fighting and retreating, with his bare muscles and strips of torn jersey on his shoulders, he turned around and walked towards the technical table on the sidelines.

Lin Fei, who saw it in his eyes, suddenly widened his eyes, and there was a "pop" sound in his heart, and the next picture was the wolf king lying on the technical table, and then a drink fell from the sky in the audience......

Lin Fei didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Could it be that the Auburn Hills Palace incident is going to be staged in advance at the finals?

And it's not the Pacers who suffer, it's the Timberwolves, who are just one step away from the championship?

The Pistons' home fans all stood up and were still yelling at the Wolves.

Compared to Artest's rude foul on Big Ben in the original world, tonight's wolf king just spewed a few trash words, and Big Ben was the first to do it.

But the Pistons' home fans apparently don't care about that, and it seems that there must be something hateful about the poor man.

"Kevin, listen up, you're a coward who picked up a trash can, Ben can break your skull with one punch!"

"Since you are cowardly, you should pick up your tail and be a man, otherwise you will probably leave the palace of Auburn Hills on your stomach!"

"You're useless for giving you a chance, Kevin!"

In the taunting and invective of the Pistons' home fans, the Wolves did not lie on the technical table like Artest,

Instead, he leaned over the technical table, exchanging things with Coach Philip Saunders, trying to calm his agitated anger.

At this time, Lin Fei really saw a drink being thrown down from the second-floor stands of the audience.

"Bang!"
