Chapter 259: The Challenge from the New Division Challenge MVP

Commentary of the first half, the second half was about to begin. At this time, the teams on both sides finally showed a sense of urgency. In the first half, the two teams wanted to say that they were two teams playing games, rather than two teams with fancy performances. The offenses of both sides were very fierce, but the defensive end also made the opponent ask for it. The score of the half was simply 107:102. Such an exaggerated score even made people think that this game has been finished.

After the start of the second half, it was obvious that the two teams' style of playing changed. They began to focus on defense, and among the United States, the only pretty good inside line is Towns.

Although he did not play too seriously on the defensive end, at least he did not let others do whatever they want on the offensive end and easily scored in the inside.

The inside of the world team simply formed a gorgeous no-fly zone in the inside. Sorry, if you want to perform? Show your strength and talk.

The competition between the two sides on the inside and outside lines was very exciting. The rising speed of the score was finally not as exaggerated as the beginning, and the two sides fought back and forth.

Such a wonderful game also allowed the three commentators to begin to explain the game seriously. Both sides even had various tactics of breaking points, pick-and-roll, off-ball pick-and-roll, and transferring the strength and weakness side.

None of the world team's centers can stop Towns who is outraged today. Jokic is not fast enough, while Porzingis looks a little too thin.

Three-pointers, jump shots, and strong inside shots, Towns' offensive starting point looks exactly the same as Lin Sen in the regular season. In fact, Towns' offense is similar to Lin Sen in the regular season.

He can play hard in the inside, and his pace may not be as good as Lin Sen, but it is definitely enough in this year of declining inside. With his height and wingspan, it is not a problem to average about 10 points in the penalty area.

His mid-range shots have always been considered excellent. With his height and wingspan, his shooting height is like Durant. If he is not fast enough, he can even play as a small forward.

Because his three-pointers are also excellent, one of the main reasons why Andrew Wiggins and Zach Lavender can play very comfortable in the breakthrough is that Towns' three-pointer allows the Timberwolves to make the opponent's penalty area empty when attacking the opponent.

Since Lin Sen also developed a ball-holding breakthrough, these two players have completely compared the offense, but no matter how deeply the American media digs, they found that Lin Sen has always done better than Towns on the offensive end.

The inside shooting percentage is 61%: 57%, the middle-range shooting percentage is 48%: 44%, and the three-point shooting percentage is 38%: 35%. The shooting percentage is crushing in three aspects, and that's all, Lin Sen's total score is higher than that of Towns, which means that Lin Sen is not only more efficient, but also has higher output. This is almost unquestionable.

And being able to pass the ball, Lin Sen averaged 5.4 assists per game, which is almost the same as Jokic. The defensive end is the biggest favorite among the best defensive players. If there is no accident, Lin Sen has put the best defensive player this year into his pocket and zipped it up. More importantly, the comparison of the Pacers and the Timberwolves' record.

The Timberwolves, who also have Wiggins and Lavin, dare not say how poor their player configuration is. The problem is that none of the three people have no defense, and Towns can barely defend. In Kentucky, it is the defensive core of the defensive team. But when the Timberwolves are at the top, no matter how good the defensive habits are, they are deviated.

Towns began to make efforts in the later stage of this rookie challenge. From the time when Kentucky looked down on Wisconsin at the beginning, he now regarded Lin Sen as a target of catching up. There is no other way except the best rookie. He has to find a way to get all the honors Lin Sen won again next.

The gap in the second half was gradually widened in Towns' offense. The balanced situation of the world team's inside against the United States' outside was broken. Jamal Murray of the United States scored 17 points in the first half, and in the second half, the United States began to blossom inside and outside.

"Kat played very fiercely tonight! Let me think about it, this scene is familiar to you, Lin, do you think there is a bit like a player who won the MVP of the Challenge last year? He was also so cruel when he played in the rookie challenge."

Rachel smiled at Lin Sen a little embarrassedly. Faced with the situation of being called again, Lin Sen was expressionless. He replied lazily: "Sorry, is this happening? I didn't seem to be sitting in the commentary seat last year, so I don't know the situation."

Bill Walton laughed out loud, and Rachel rolled her eyes, haha! You won the challenge mvp and of course you didn't sit in the commentary seat, after all, you were playing the game.

Facing Lin Sen, who was not inclined to the tune, they did not continue to open their taunt mode, but continued to watch the game. After the US team began to blossom inside and outside, there was no much suspense. In the end, both sides contributed the highest rookie challenge match score in history, 197:184, both sides broke the record. With the strength of the second half, Towns won the challenge mvp with 42 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 steals and 4 blocks.

In the post-match award speech, this new science challenge mvp challenged Lin Sen: "My goal has always been Lin. Unfortunately, I have been losing to him. From the semi-finals of NCAA, to the rookie challenge last year, to the final rookie competition, I have never won him. He is now the champion, the core player in the East, the best defensive player, and the best center of the year. Obviously, winning this trophy is not a proof of anything for me, but I hope to have a chance to win him in the future."

Lin Sen was still in the studio at this moment. He was a little confused when he listened to Towns's speech. He did not expect that he had such a high evaluation in Towns' heart. It seemed that he and he were going to be the enemy of his life.

"Lin, don't you plan to say anything in the face of such a challenge?" Bill Walton's eyes lit up, and he immediately realized that this was a good opportunity to cheat Lin Sen. He immediately asked Lin Sen to answer, and moved the microphone to Lin Sen, even aiming the big screen at the lecture seat.
