NBA: I have 3, no D, and I can't dribble

Chapter 51 [51] Suffocating scramble, chaotic attack and 12 points in a row!
Although Hamilton missed the ball, it forced Lin Fei to raise the arc of his shot.

"Bang!"

The basketball missed, and the long rebound bounced to the left side of the court, and Szerbiak and Tayshaun Prince rushed up at the same time.

"boom!"

The active Prince flew to the ground directly, but did not completely control the ball. Szczerbiak also fell to the ground immediately, rolling with Prince to fight for it.

The floor was instantly polished by the two of them.

Just when the referee was about to whistle for the ball, the basketball was picked up by Szczerbiak from Prince, and Big Ben and Olowokandi fought hard for it, and they also fell to the penalty area.

The scene was quite explosive, and the basketball court seemed to have become a wrestling arena.

The ball was snatched by Big Ben and passed to Billups who stepped forward to respond immediately.

Hamilton quickly threw away Lin Fei and ran towards the frontcourt, but Billups was accidentally tripped by his teammate Prince who was still on the ground, and the basketball in his hand flew out of his hand.

"Snapped!"

The wolf king covered the sky with his long arms, rushed up to grab the ball back, and handed it to Cassel who stepped forward to meet him.

Kassel made a wonderful pass from behind, and the basketball seemed to have eyes, and instantly flew into the hands of Lin Fei, who was near the 60-degree angle on the right side of the three-point line at the top of the arc.

At this moment, Hamilton turned pale with fright, and it was too late to come back to defend Lin Fei.

Lin Fei took off decisively after receiving the ball, and quickly attacked in the chaotic battle, bowing his bow and nocking an arrow to shoot another.

At this time, in the frontcourt penalty area, five people, Big Ben, Olowokandi, Tayshaun Prince, Szebiak and Billups, were still on the ground.

The basketball flew leisurely over the five of them and roared toward the basket.

Big Ben quickly stood up, ready to fight for the rebound, but staring at the basket, he sighed helplessly in the next moment.

"Shh!"

the second.

The Timberwolves and the Pistons continued to scramble for the ground, coupled with the unexpected change of the ball, fully demonstrated the suffocating defense and hand-to-hand battle in the finals,

And Lin Fei's three-pointer, which took advantage of the chaos, was like a sharp arrow, piercing through the iron wall of the Pistons.

There were thunderous cheers in the Target Center arena, and there were only 5.2 seconds left before the end of the first quarter.

Lin Fei's consecutive three-pointers seemed to make the five Pistons a little confused. Da Ben quickly sent the ball to Billups from the baseline, but Billups was careless again when he dribbled and turned around.
"Whoosh!"

The "alien" Cassell who flew up was like a ghost, showing the rich experience of a veteran, and even took the ball directly from Billups.

Borrowing a cover from the Wolf King, Cassel dribbled the ball to the right, picked up the basket with a return carbine, and the basketball went into the net steadily.

"Shh!"

The Timberwolves scored 5 points in a row.

Billups blamed himself, and Pistons coach Larry Brown on the sidelines also frowned.

It seems that Lin Fei's appearance in the last 2 minutes of the first quarter was another good move by Philip Sanders.

"Bang!"

Billups missed the buzzer at halftime and the first quarter ended.

Timberwolves (25): (18) Pistons.

Relying on the backcourt combination of Lin Fei and Cassel, the Timberwolves scored 2 points in a row in the last 8 minutes of the first quarter, extending their lead to 7 points.

Lin Fei's playing not only achieved good results in chasing and defending Hamilton, but also made 3 of 2 three-pointers on the offensive end, and also maintained an efficient touch.

Filled with joy, Philip Sanders took the initiative to hand a towel and Gatorade to Lin Fei who came off the court:

"Lin, you played great. You continue to play in the first half of the second quarter. Sam rests for a while, and Latril comes on!"

"Good coach!"

Lin Fei also had a smile on his face. Originally, he was worried about not having enough playing time in this round of finals. Now it seems that he should be worried about his physical fitness.

In the final analysis, it is all thanks to Hamilton, who allowed his defensive loopholes to be covered up to the maximum extent.

Szebiak patted Lin Fei on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Lin, it seems that you are born to defend against Hamilton! You are going to explode in this round of finals!"

The wolf king also encouraged Lin Fei with a smile, but he began to worry about his FMVP.

After the start of the second quarter, Larry Brown saw his tricks and let Hamilton, who had played the entire first quarter, take a rest and replaced him with a strong small forward Corris Williams, obviously aiming at Lin Fei.

At the same time, Mehmet Okur replaced Ben Wallace to enhance the offensive shooting power.

After all, this is only the first game of the finals, so the head coaches of both teams are making various attempts.

The Timberwolves took the lead in attacking in the second quarter.

Philip Sanders arranged a perfect cover run tactic for Lin Fei. This time, Billups was replaced to chase Lin Fei.

The double screens put up by Wolf King and Olowokandi were of high quality, allowing Lin Fei to get rid of Billups successfully. The white center Mehmet Okur could only switch up, but his movement speed was too slow.

Lin Fei received the basketball one step beyond the 30-degree three-point line on the left, faced Okur's clumsy defense, bent his bow and set his arrow, and made a lightning shot.

"Shh!"

and also.

The third.

If the ball were replaced by Ben Wallace, Lin Fei would surely be given a solid cap. Philip Sanders aimed at Okur's flaws in switching defenses for smaller players.

"OMG, the third one, if Lin keeps being so accurate, the Pistons may not last long!"

The possession of the ball was changed, and Billups used the pick-and-roll to force Lin Fei with the ball, but the "madman" quickly switched over, and Billups gave the ball to Corlis, who was facing Lin Fei.

Corlis was physically strong, and he hit Lin Fei twice with the ball behind his back, and Lin Fei could only stagger back.

Seeing that Corlis, who was close to the basket, came within his range, Wolf King quickly rushed up to defend.

The ball was given to Rasheed Wallace again. Olowokandi came up for a delay, roared at Tianzun, and then passed to Okur, who was high up on his side. Okur's mid-range shot was quite soft, and the basketball entered the net steadily.

"Shh!"

Mehmet Okur, a sophomore, has not yet fully developed his three-point skills during this period, and is more of a mid-range catcher with a high hit rate. He is the leading scorer on the bench for the Pistons.

Although changing defense for Lin Fei was bad again, allowing the Pistons to seize the opportunity to make an open shot, but Wolf King and Madman were willing to do so. Who would let them shoot three-pointers accurately?

Looking back, the Timberwolves attack again,
This time Lin Fei continued to open up space on the outside to contain Billups.

"Madman" and the Wolf King played pick-and-rolls in high positions, misplaced and rushed to the basket, and changed hands against Rasheed Wallace to hit the board in the air, scoring two points strongly.

Without Da Ben's low guard, "Madman"'s confidence in breaking through the basket has increased significantly.

Rasheed Wallace came to the offensive end, with the help of the pick-and-roll with Billups, after receiving the ball from a high position, he made a decisive straight-arm jumper, which was also hit.

"Shh!"

The Timberwolves made a quick move from the bottom line, "Madman" accelerated with the ball, and Lin Fei and Szebiak continued to run.

As long as Lin Fei is on the court, the Timberwolves and Pistons' offensive and defensive rhythms are obviously faster, and their scoring efficiency seems to be higher.

"Swoosh! Whoosh!"

This time, it was still through continuous screens with the inside line. Lin Fei once again met Mehmet Okur, who was switching defenses, at the bottom right corner.

Okur threw the ball fiercely, his big hand directly hit Lin Fei's arm.

"Bang!"

"Beep!"

Although the shot was missed, the referee blew his whistle and made 3 free throws.

Okur shook his head and sighed, Pistons coach Larry Brown on the sidelines did not hesitate, taking advantage of the free throw time, he quickly replaced Okur with Ben.

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

"Shh!"

Lin Fei, who walked to the free throw line, was calm and calm, and took all three free throws.

After playing for 2 minutes in the first quarter and 1 minutes in the second quarter, Lin Fei made 4 of 4 three-pointers and 3 of 3 free throws in less than 3 minutes of playing. He has already scored 12 points, the highest in the game.

In this slow-paced era dominated by defense, Lin Fei's superb three-pointer is really a terrifying scoring weapon.

However, with Big Ben's return, the Pistons changed defenses after covering the pick-and-roll very decisively. Ben Wallace immediately posted up to resist Lin Fei, and did not give him a chance to catch the ball at all.

Feeling the strong collision of Big Ben's tendons, Lin Fei gritted his teeth tightly, he knew that this was the confrontation in the finals.

The return of Big Ben made the Pistons' defense tougher, and the Timberwolves failed to get a good chance in the next few offensive rounds.

On the other hand, the Pistons continue to use Lin Fei to create open shots on the offensive end. Everyone has a good passing vision.

After a 4:0 spurt, the Pistons regained the point difference back to single digits.

Philip Sanders also quickly replaced Lin Fei in dead ball time, and Trenton Hassell came on.

As soon as Hassel came up, Hamilton on the Pistons side also came up, and within 30 seconds of his debut, he contributed another mid-range 19-foot jumper after a run.

"Shh!"

Philip Sanders had no choice but to let Lin Fei appear again at the next dead ball time:
"Lin, in tonight's G1, you will be on the same level as Hamilton next. This may be a big test for your physical strength!"

Lin Fei gritted his teeth and nodded, "Coach, I will try my best!"

When the opportunity comes, you must not miss it!
