Chapter 205: Double-digit streak
Lin Sen lying comfortably on the plane didn't want to move at all. The other Pacers players started playing poker on the plane and listened to music. Only Lin Sen lying like a salted fish. He was too tired these two days. He dominated both offense and defense against the Nuggets and the Trail Blazers, and at the same time it was a huge consumption for his physical strength. Especially when facing the Nuggets, he ran a lot with the Nuggets' track and field team at the beginning. In the second game, he faced the Trail Blazers and made unlimited defenses on the outside.
McMillan looked at Lin Sen, and after knocking the pen on the notebook twice, he made a decision: "Lin! You will take a rest in the next game!"
The next game is against the King with Cousins. Although the King's record is not good, Cousins plays well! His personal ability is absolutely perfect. His perfect center body template is wrong. Only half of his head is not online, because Cousins is also very good at football merchandise, he can pass the ball and assist doubles, which is not once or twice.
The media are more looking forward to the collision between Lin Sen and Cousins. In this era of center decline, every match between top centers can easily attract the attention of most people, especially to remember the group of old fans in the 1990s.
But McMillan directly made the decision to let Lin Sen rest, which made Lin Sen a little panicked. Hey, hey, his own people know that I am a resumption, but fans won’t think so! Fans will think I’m afraid.
"Lin, you have to learn to trust your teammates. Without your existence, maybe the Pacers would not be the number one in the East, but they are still a playoff team. And occasionally you have to give Miles some experience against top centers." McMillan said with a smile.
"But we've won 8 consecutive games."
After five consecutive victories in November, they defeated the Raptors, Nuggets and Trail Blazers in December. They have now won 8 consecutive victories, which is the longest winning streak this season. Of course, they also want to make a double-digit winning streak, but once Lin Sen rests, it's hard to say.
"After tomorrow, we will win nine consecutive victories!" George walked over from behind and took pictures of Lin Sen, who looked a little tired. "It's not just the coach who advised it, but the team doctor also thought so. Your body needs some care and add some gasoline. For the second grade rookie, you have to leave us a little chance."
In the next day's game, Turner was played miserably by Cousins at the beginning. He was originally full of confidence in starting this game, but when he started the game, he felt that this Kentucky evil man was not only famous for his temper, but also his skills.
He can break through the outside and shoot, and he can carry the inside and face the frame. He has good steps. He has the feeling of meeting Lin Sen in the training match. After Lin Sen experienced a sluggish scorching in the second half of November, Cousins has surpassed Lin Sen to become the first in the inside scoring list.
Lin Sen was so anxious off the court that although he might not have many ways to face Cousins, who was in a state that was in great shape today, at least he could still fight back on the offensive end.
However, tonight, this incident was fucked by Gordon and George today. Cousins, on the side of the King, felt hot, but on the other side, the Pacers ran away from the outside, and all the loopholes in the inside were repaired by the outside, and they were even beaten back.
Logically speaking, the Kings' lineup is not weak. Cousins and Guy's dual cores seem to be not much different from Linson and George's dual cores. The same center and a small forward may have been criticized for too long, but he has always been a good outside player, with a shooting percentage of 45% and 38% of three-point shooting percentage averaged 19 points per game.
But the reality is that there is one first in the East, second in the League, and tenth in the West, which has a lot to do with the King's change of coaches this year and their chaotic management. David Jorge seems to have no way to let Cousins stop and listen to him. The whole king's rhythm is Luancheng's one-stop porridge
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Lin Sen, who was worried about it, was completely relieved. The score of 97:81 on the score card made him completely relieved. Cousins, facing the Pacers' strong attack on the inside, finally failed to escape the fate of six. His speed is a weakness, and it is not so easy to run fast with his body on his back.
Turner kept pulling Cousins out to switch defenses on the offensive end. He was not obsessed with fighting hard with Cousins, otherwise Lin Sen would have to continue shopping for him after the game.
After defeating the Kings, they faced the Suns, who were at the bottom of the West, and another pair of double-gun teams stood in front of the Pacers. Booker and Bledsoe were two defenders who were averaging 20. Of course, because the Suns, the name of the West, was the bottom of the West, this pair of double-guns was considered to be the representative of data brushes. In fact, the reason why they were even more at the bottom is because of their other positions.
Small forward TJ Warren is still a potential newcomer and is also the key target for the Suns to train, but the inside partner of power forward Markis Chris and center Tyson Chandler is a bit eye-catching.
A No. 8 pick today is too young, and it seems that this 19-year-old boy has not fulfilled his talent at all. The other is the Mavericks' champion center that year, the best defensive player in 2013, but now he is almost 35 years old, how long can he keep his full strength on the court?
The last game was the Pacers' show on the outside, and this game was naturally part of the inside. Lin Sen had no idea of respecting the old and loving the young in the face of such a lineup of old and young.
He scored 13 of 21 shots, with 33 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 blocks and 2 steals. This is the answer Lin Sen handed over after he came back. He almost destroyed the entire inside line of the Suns at one level, and clocked in for three quarters to get off work.
The team won ten consecutive victories and the West's four consecutive victories in seven consecutive away games. At the beginning, the Pacers and the Eastern team's strength doubted the sudden decrease. This is the first double-digit winning streak in the league, and the four-star Warriors did not do this.
