Chapter 192: Never underestimate Lin Sen

The next game was as McGrady explained. The next time Lin Sen rushed into the inside, the Raptors' players came from all directions to prevent Lin Sen from scoring.

The whistle foul was made, but Lin Sen was unable to win the ball, and he made both free throws, which did not change the score, but how to say it? The Raptors' momentum was played out, and I don't care about anything else. First of all, I have to let you put the ball into the basket.

At the same time, on the offensive end, DeRozan was squeezed in with his back against Gordon's singles, and suddenly turned inward, yes! He turned inward, instead of turning outward to open up space to jump shot. This contrast allowed him to get rid of Lin Sen's assisting defense directly at the middle distance and completed a beautiful throw.

The Raptors' three-pointers were not accurate, while the Pacers' defense was quite small. After DeRozan got rid of it, he only had a chance to get his phone out for a moment, but this guy who challenged the first point guard this year caught it.

"Beautiful goal!" McGrady couldn't help but stand up in her seat and shout for her successor.

Compared with the forum, more people compared DeRozan and Kobe, and in the Raptors, more people compared DeRozan and McGrady. The No. 9 pick selected by the Raptors, the same striker was about two meters swinging man, with a pair of long arms and a pair of sleepy eyes that looked hazy. Unfortunately, McGrady left the Raptors and gave his peak to the Magic and Rockets, while DeRozan stayed and became the king of the North.

Tonight's first quarter was a DeRozan's quarter. Gordon, who was defending against the defensive match, could be called a quasi-All-Star player before this. With two big brothers averaging 50 points per game, he naturally did not have much right to take action, but he still averaged 17 points per game in November. But Gordon's first quarter was very confused in the match tonight. Facing DeRozan, who was 10 centimeters higher than him, his offense was not going smoothly.

In the offense, the player DeRozan faced was called George, one of the best outside players in the league. In the first round, he played a crushing advantage against Gordon's defense, which allowed the Pacers to immediately replace the opponent's defender with George.

However, it still did not stop the North King from performing well. Indeed, George was even taller and his wingspan was also very long, but DeRozan felt so good tonight. He hit the fairy balls that looked extremely difficult, and George had nothing to say when he shot.

DeRozan's performance, home advantage, and the pressure brought by physical collision to Lin Sen, these things made the Raptors get a good advantage at the beginning of the game.

14:8, the Pacers called a timeout on the away game first. This timeout had no other meaning. The first point was to make DeRozan feel cold. George had a dark face and was very dissatisfied with his defense just now, but there was no way. Sometimes on some nights, the stars who made the right shot could not stop it. Another point was that Lin Sen had suffered a lot of impact in the few rounds of attack with the ball.

"Lin? Do you need a rest?" McMillan frowned and asked Lin Sen. The regular season was still long, and he didn't want his precious players to be on the injury list like this, even in this battle for the number one in the Eastern Conference and the battle of revenge.

Lin Sen nodded. In the past few rounds, it was not just a physical confrontation, but also a double-team for the opponent. Although he had to commit two fouls, all of them were on the opposing fake starter Siakam. On the contrary, this consumed too much physical strength, and he had to find some way to break the double-team.

At this time, McGrady's commentary voice came over: "Look, just now, when Lin was double-teamed by Lowry on the left, Gordon in the right bottom corner was in the open position, because the Raptors' rotation defense focuses on the strong side, while Lin's field of vision is not wide, and he can only see the open position at the strong side."

When Rachel heard McGrady's thoughts, she thought that she had met Lin Sen for the first time in this city last year. Lin Sen's three-point shot was so eye-catching when she was training, but she easily counterattacked herself two days later. At this time, she had already come to a conclusion: Never think that the guy on the other side can't do something, he will definitely surprise you.

"Trecy! Never underestimate Lin, he will surprise you." Rachel said with a smile

As a leader in the commentary industry this year, McGrady knew Lin Sen's best rookie last season, knew Lin Sen was the champion center of last season, knew he signed a big contract this year, and knew that he would almost certainly be selected as the All-Star in the Eastern Conference this year, but he didn't know that Lin Sen was a player who made extremely rapid progress and would always surprise you when you unexpectedly did.

McGrady didn't agree with Rachel's answer, he didn't think Lin Sen's already recognized shortcomings would change.

Off the court, Lin Sen Oukong held the best blue skill package of the first week and began to look for the right skills to break the deadlock. In ancient times, the center sometimes took on the role of the organization and used his attractiveness to help the team score. The first thing that appeared was a super scorer named Chamberlain.

This player was a bug-level player at the time. He was unstoppable in the interior, averaging 50 games and 100 points per game. These are tasks that seem to be impossible to complete now, and all of them were completed by him. In the later stages of his career, he gradually understood one thing, that is, relying on him alone, he might be able to win most of the games, but he could not win the championship.

Such a player who averaged less than 3 assists at a fast pace at the time became a passer who averaged 8 per game in the later stage. He had to sigh at his greatness and won two championships.

After him, the NBA also showed many centers with excellent organizational skills, and most of them were Europeans.

For example, Sabonis, a genius center who was at the same time as the peak of the four centers but could only play in Europe. He is 2-meter tall Iverson, McGrady, who has never been injured, the ever-diligent Shark, and Kobe, who plays reasonably, and said that the five major beasts that cannot appear in modern times in the early 21st century.

For example, Gasol, the top-notch center who was swept in the Grizzlies for three consecutive playoffs but won two championships and one as a player after partnering with Kobe. This is Phil Jackson's favorite center type in the triangular offense.
