Chapter 19 The firepower continues, the Timberwolves attack opens!
"He was replaced by Flip Saunders in the first two minutes. It seems that Lin Fei has gained the full trust of the coaching staff!"
"He's going to play a bigger role with the Timberwolves tonight!"
"Let us look forward to Lin Fei's wonderful performance!"
Although Director Zhang looked very excited with his face glowing red, he was still worried about Lin Fei's appearance.
Even if 5 of 7 three-pointers in G7 of the Western Conference Finals explode again, no matter how hard China blows, there will still be a huge luck bonus after all.
Facing the Lakers' more targeted and tight defense tonight, coupled with the influence of the mentality of playing away games, can Lin Fei really be able to continue his magic?
The closer you are to the basket, the higher your shooting percentage. This iron law of basketball seems to have never been broken.
The host Yu Jia was also very excited: "Director Zhang, in your opinion, will Lin Fei's three-pointer tonight continue to be as hot as G5?"
Director Zhang analyzed with a smile: "It's hard to be honest, and everyone who has played ball knows it too!"
"Anyway, I hope Lin Fei can calm down and take the ball decisively when he gets the chance. Don't hesitate, just do it!"
"As for us fans, don't expect too much of Lin Fei's performance tonight, watch the football well, and let's cheer for Lin Fei!"
"Okay, let's cheer for Lin Fei together!"
With the emergence of Dayao, NBA fans in China have sprung up and grown rapidly.
During this period in 04, in China alone, the popularity and popularity of basketball had surpassed football.
Coupled with Lin Fei's outstanding performance of 7 of 7 three-pointers in the final quarter, it quickly fermented in China, so tonight's Western Conference Finals G6 between the Lakers and Timberwolves,
It attracted more than 2000 million Chinese fans to watch the live broadcast in front of the TV.
The NBA text live broadcast rooms on New Wolf and Sohu Sports Online were also crowded with people.
"Lin is going to go on the court and shoot through the Lakers' basket with a three-pointer!"
"He was ordered to come on the stage in the first two minutes. It seems that Lin Fei has been fully used by the Timberwolves head coach!"
"With great ability comes great responsibility. I hope Lin Fei will never feel any pressure. An unstable mentality is the most affecting shooter's shooting touch!"
"In the NBA Western Conference finals, Lin Fei was lucky enough to be able to score 7 of 7 three-pointers in a single quarter. How can he expect to perform miraculously every game? Jordan can't do it either!"
"Dude, watching the game costs electricity? Does Jordan know how to shoot three-pointers?"
"It would be great if Lin Fei can continue to stay in the NBA next season. I really don't think much of him. Inside players like Dayao are more reliable!"
"Brothers, this game is recorded and broadcast. I have watched the game in advance in Los Angeles. Lin Fei hit another 8 three-pointers tonight and the Timberwolves narrowly won!"
Look back to Staples Center.
Flip Saunders was surrounded by players in the center, and once again carefully arranged the first offensive tactics after the timeout.
This offense is very important for the Timberwolves. If successful, the momentum will have a good chance of turning around.
Lin Fei also took advantage of this time to add more than 90 free attributes in the system attributes to the free throw attribute.
[Ding, 92 free attribute points have been added to the free throw attribute, and the free throw attribute has been updated, currently 75 points]
As expected by Lin Fei, free throws are an attribute with low technical content, and the exchange ratio is indeed very high.
If 92 points of free attributes were added to defense or dribbling, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to pass 60 points.
After all, Lin Fei accumulated these 92 points of free attributes in just over two days.
[Ding, the host has been detected and boarded the Western Conference Finals G6 arena, leading the team to win the game, gain more free attribute points, and have the opportunity to receive additional rewards]
The "Zen Master" also replaced Gary Payton with the old fish Fisher in advance to keep a close eye on Lin Fei.
The 30-year-old Laoyu is about to reach the peak of his career, with accurate three-pointers and fierce defense at the No. 1 position.
If it weren't for the star-studded 36-year-old Gary Payton and the reputation bonus of a Hall of Fame veteran, it would be more reasonable for the Lakers' starting point guard to be Fisher.
Back from the timeout, the Timberwolves attack.
Darick Martin brought the ball to the frontcourt, still the wolf king who supported the high position.
The old postman followed up to defend. Although his steps were slower as he got older, Ma Long's body was still strong, and his big elbow was daunting.
Lin Fei squatted in the left corner, and Fisher's defense came up tightly, squeezing Lin Fei's running space.
"Lin, don't even think about scoring a single three-pointer tonight! The seven three-pointers in the last game are enough to last a lifetime for a undrafted draft pick like you, right?"
Fisher is only 1.85 meters tall, but weighs more than 200 pounds, about 92 kilograms, a full 1.94 kilograms heavier than Lin Fei, who is 7 meters tall, and is quite strong in the No. 1 position.
Back then, James collided with Fisher when he broke through the basket, and he was knocked out. Fisher was unscathed, which was outrageous.
Lin Fei's eyes were sharp and he was always aware of the situation on the field. He had no intention of arguing with Fisher.
Excellent on-court performance is the most powerful response to trash talk.
"Whoosh!"
Lin Fei desperately squeezed for a little space, ran sideways along the outside of the baseline, and quickly moved from the left corner to the right corner.
Fisher followed closely, but at this time, in front of the right corner, the equally strong Szebiak was already ready to cover Lin Fei.
While Szebiak was blocking Fisher, Lin Fei kept moving, as if like a ghost, and accelerated to move near the 45-point three-point line.
"Zen Master" did not make defensive arrangements for Lin Fei tonight, because the loss at the last moment of the last game was due to Lin Fei's three-point accuracy, and on the other hand, it was the price paid for the defense change.
Phil Jackson was sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai. Even if he died, he would not believe that Lin Fei could continue to be accurate tonight.
Because Devin George did not switch defense immediately, Lin Fei actually got a good shooting opportunity at the 45-degree angle.
However, the Wolf King in the high position did not pass the ball over immediately, so Fisher rushed up from the middle and took the lead in blocking the Wolf King and Lin Fei, cutting off the passing line.
Lin Fei frowned slightly. It seemed that the Wolf King was a power forward after all. Even with good support, it would be difficult to reach the passing level of a first-class point guard.
"Madman" retreated to the top of the arc at this time. Lin Fei continued to move around the three-point line to the left, and took advantage of "Madman"'s second cover to reach a 30-degree angle on the left.
Naturally, Kobe didn't dare to let go of the madman to chase Lin Fei at the beginning of the game, and Fisher's pursuit was also half a beat behind.
"Kevin, hurry!"
"Whoosh!"
This time the wolf king's pass finally came to his hands, the moment Lin Fei received the ball, his whole body was electrified quickly.
The opportunity finally came.
Ignoring Fisher's flying figure, Lin Fei suddenly jumped up, bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot a thousand miles.
shhhhhh!
"Shh!"
The green hills outside the mountains, the buildings outside the buildings, is this one-third awesome?
Timberwolves head coach Flip Saunders stood on the sidelines and pumped his fist excitedly.
The double screen tactic he arranged just now was to let Lin Fei hit a three-pointer first when he came up.
Deterring the Lakers' defense and gaining enough containment, it also gives the Wolf King and "Madman" more opportunities.
Although Hassell is good at defense, his shooting is too tough and he is selectively left out on the offensive end, allowing the Lakers to put more of their defensive energy on the "Madman" and the Wolf King.
This is also the main reason why the Timberwolves were beaten 9:2 in the opening game.
Sitting on the bench, Trendon Hassell shook his head and sighed. His open three-point shooting rate in training was close to 70%. Why couldn't he make a shot in a crucial game?
Probably because of nervousness. Isn't Lin Fei nervous? Is he still just a first-year rookie?
Hassel naively and stupidly believed that Lin Fei should have a strong psychological quality because of his high IQ and high education.
After all, he had heard that Qingbei University in China was equivalent to Harvard, Yale, and Stanford in the United States.
"Madman" and Wolf King gave Lin Fei a thumbs up when they were returning to defense. You guys can really get in!
Precisely because this is a life-and-death battle with no retreat, the Wolf King's iron-blooded jump shot has limited efficiency under the Lakers' tough defense.
That's why he was willing to obey the head coach's arrangements and choose to continue playing for Lin Fei.
After all, this kid is really accurate in three points!
But if it is placed in an inconsequential regular season, the Wolves will definitely have a lot of ball rights in their hands and cannot let a rookie kid steal too much of the limelight.
Lin Fei has already seen this, so next season, he will not stay in Timberwolves again.
Only Szebiak, a good friend, was truly happy that Lin Fei scored another three-pointer.
Lin Fei himself was calm and calm, his handsome face always calm and calm. He turned over and returned to defense and passed the Timberwolves bench.
He raised a finger to the little mixed-race beauty Swift who was sitting in the second row with her eyes widened in disbelief:
"Look out for little Taylor, this is the first one!"
Taylor Swift blinked her big watery blue eyes, her mouth was half-opened, and she had already begun to have an ominous premonition.
But this little brother Lin Fei, he is really handsome when he catches the ball and shoots three-pointers after using the cover to run continuously!
Although he only scored a three-pointer, "Zen Master" couldn't sit still. He stood up and shouted to Fisher on the court:
"Derek, fight him, be tough!"
When the Lakers attacked, Fisher held the ball and beat Lin Fei with his back, forcing Lin Fei to stumble from the three-point line to the axis area, and he was about to approach the basket.
Lin Fei gritted his teeth and kept steady steps, but he still couldn't stop the old fish.
"Madman" decisively came up to change Lin Fei's defense, but left Kobe empty.
Fisher immediately passed the ball to Kobe. Kobe held the ball and drove to the basket. Facing the Wolf King's helpless defense, he made a smart and high-profile ball.
The big shark behind the Wolf King showed his fangs, leaped high to catch the ball, and sent his hands up for a dunk.
"Boom!"
Lin Fei's defense was targeted again.
The "Zen Master" on the sidelines showed a satisfied smile. He didn't believe that players who were continuously targeted on the defensive end could still maintain a stable mentality on the offensive end.
Flip Saunders, on the other hand, doesn't need to trust anyone. Lin Fei's threat on the offensive end is enough to make up for his defense.
After all, not everyone is like Jordan and Kobe, who combine offense and defense and have double teams all year round.
Timberwolves offense,
This time, the veteran Fisher chased even harder, but the Timberwolves failed to provide quality cover for two consecutive times, so Lin Fei did not get a good chance to catch the ball.
With the ball in hand, the "Madman" used a pick-and-roll from the Wolf King to get rid of Kobe's sudden throw, and the ball hit the board.
"Shh!"
Have it.
The appearance of Lin Fei and Szebiak indeed shared the defensive pressure of the Wolf King and "Madman" on the offensive end, and the Timberwolves began to score consecutively.
Phillip Saunders's key timeout substitution is of great significance.
