"In the last minute and a half, the atmosphere of the whole game solidified. As long as KK sends this free throw into the basket, Minnesota will take the lead against Orlando for the first time in the game."

Hoffman said as he looked at Garnett walking to the free throw line.

As the referee blew the whistle, the players from both teams returned to the court, and Lin Sen immediately felt a familiar gaze watching him.

Following the feeling, what caught my eye was Garnett. The familiar look in Garnett's eyes at this moment was the same as when he first came to Minnesota.

Lin Sen smiled at Garnett and moved away from Garnett's eyes to the right side of the key.

Garnett walked straight to the free throw line. When Garnett walked to the free throw line, the audience burst into uniform MVP cheers.

Standing outside the three-point line, Lin Sen couldn't help but recall those MVP nights that belonged to him. He shook his head and focused entirely on Garnett.

After the whistle blew, Garnett adjusted his rhythm, and Lin Sen bent forward, ready to rush in and grab the defensive rebound.

However, Garnett disappointed all Magic fans. His second free throw went smoothly into the basket.

"kg, the second free throw was still a solid hit. He didn't give Wood a chance, leading by one point. Although this was only a negligible lead, for Minnesota, which had been the chaser for nearly two hours, this time

A comeback will greatly boost their morale." Bill Walton analyzed.

However, what made the Magic even more desperate was that on the offensive end, Linsen's breakthrough pass was passed to Chris Webber, but Webber's mid-range shot failed to hit.

"Orlando is in danger now. The ball is not theirs. As long as Minnesota completes this offense, the pressure will all return to Orlando. For Orlando, they must defend well. There are still 61 seconds left before the end of the game.

Seconds, time is not gone." Hoffman said, staring closely at the Magic fans who quickly retreated.

Off the court, Stan Van Gundy scratched his hair in annoyance. Lin Sen's breakthrough opportunity was just right, but Garnett's defense was too fast. Although it did not directly interfere with Webber, it still put pressure on Webber.

Jamal Nelson dribbled the ball to half-court. Linsen did not steal the ball but opened his arms to put as much pressure on Nelson as possible.

Nelson didn't do it himself. When the time came to 24 seconds and there were 12 seconds left in the attack time, Nelson directly lobbed the ball over Lin Sen's head.

"Jamal chose to pass the ball, and it was still handed over to kg. Now Darko is responsible for the defense. Darko does not suffer from his height. I don't know if he can take on the team's continued defensive tasks." Bill Walton stared.

Said to Garnett and Milicic.

Milicic placed himself completely on Garnett's body. Lin Sen, who was one step inside the three-point line, glanced at Jamal Nelson, who was responsible for his defense, and quickly thought about whether to take risks.

Garnett dribbled the ball with Milicic and made two consecutive feints, but Milicic did not falter. Seeing that the attack time entered five seconds, Linsen decided to make a bet based on Garnett's past offensive habits.

A handful.

Bang!

Garnett hit Milicic behind him again, and Linsen also started to step back a little bit, and his body also completed a half-turn, with his left hand covering Nelson's direction.

"coming!"

Lin Sen silently muttered, according to Garnett's past habits, this is an absolutely good opportunity. Lin Sen didn't want to miss it, so he immediately started to rush towards Garnett.

At this moment, just as Lin Sen judged, he would bump again and then turn around and take off for a shot. The best opportunity for Lin Sen was at the moment when Garnett turned around and took off, which required a lot of speed and timing on his part.

"Wood..."

Bill Walton looked at Lin Sen who suddenly started on the court and shouted.

Lin Sen was caught off guard by all the fans and had already rushed to the inside. The ball in Garnett's hand was also exposed in front of Lin Sen's eyes. Lin Sen fiercely dug the ball between Garnett's hands.

Garnett, who had just turned around, also caught a glimpse of Lin Sen rushing towards him, and subconsciously wanted to speed up his hand.

Snapped!

There was a crisp sound, but it was not the sound of pulling out the ball but hitting Garnett's arm.

"Oh, this is a thug foul. Wood made a mistake for his gambling steal. This foul at a critical moment may ruin all hopes of Orlando." Hoffman looked annoyed and raised his arms to indicate that he had committed a thug foul.

Lin Sen said.

"It's just a little bit close, don't worry about attacking next time." Stan Van Gundy pulled Lin Sen.

Stan Van Gundy's attitude made Lin Sen somewhat compare it with Devin Casey. Even if Stan Van Gundy is just superficial, he is still much better than Devin Casey.

"Coach, I will not admit defeat!" Lin Sen said firmly. He raised his head and glanced at the big screen. There were still 42 seconds left before the end of the game. Orlando was trailing by one point and his thug's foul just sent Garnett away.

To the free throw line.

"Judging from the results, Wood's risky steal was very inappropriate, but if he didn't do it, he might not be Wood. Many people like his gambling steal. Since it is called a gambling steal, it means that we should know how to steal like this.

Risk, in fact, judging from the replay, if the kg was slower by 0.1 seconds, the result might be completely different.

And the game has not yet reached the end of the game. It is too early to say all this now. Countless games have proved that a guy with a big heart will not be upset because of previous missed shots or mistakes. Maybe Wood will show his big heart to the old man.

The owner staged a farewell."

"Bill, what you said is good, but if KG makes two free throws, Orlando will be under a lot more pressure. The first free throw is made."

As Hoffman spoke, Garnett's first free throw went smoothly into the basket.

The cheers of MVP from the audience continued to fill Lin Sen’s eardrums.

"Don't come in, don't come in, don't come in!"

This is the voice of countless Orlando fans at this moment. Although there seems to be plenty of time, the pressure brought by being behind by three points and two points is definitely different.

It's a pity that Garnett, who scored 35 points tonight, did not give face to his former younger brother Lin Sen.

Whoosh!

Another crisp sound of net wiping sounded. All the fans cheered. A three-point lead and forty seconds of attack time. As long as you defend well and don't let Lin Sen have a three-point chance, you have a great chance of winning this game.

.

And Devin Casey also shouted to the court: "Pay attention to his three-pointers, don't let him shoot three-pointers!"

"Devin, obviously knows how powerful Wood's three-pointers are. Listening to the voice, you can tell how worried he is about Wood's three-pointer to tie the score." Hoffman looked at Devin who was yelling at the court.

.Kathy.

Adriana Lima, who was behind the Magic bench, also pulled down the collar of her windbreaker to expose her cheek. Her hands were clasped together, as if she was praying.

Lin Sen dribbled the ball through the half court as quickly as possible. At this moment, the Timberwolves' defensive formation had shrunk to a 1-2-2 zone defense. This zone defense tactic evolved from the 3-2 zone defense largely made up for the 3-2 zone defense.

Defects.

At this moment, the most important thing for Devin Casey to set up such a defensive formation is to control Linsen's outside defense. He does not want Linsen to hit a three-pointer directly because of poor outside defense, giving the team a three-point advantage.

Smooth it out completely.

"Oh, obviously Devin knows how good Wood's three-pointer is. Look at his defensive arrangement, how will Wood deal with it?" Hoffman said looking at Lin Sen dribbling.

Jamal Nelson is keeping a close eye on Linsen. The current 1-2-2 zone defense puts less pressure on him, and Ariza and Hassel behind him can fill in for him at any time on both sides.

Lin Sen didn't hesitate too much. He made a gesture and Milicic immediately pulled out from inside.

Seeing Milicic pull out, Hassel and Ariza shrank their positions at the same time, ready to defend Linsen who broke through through the screen at any time.

Garnett, on the other hand, did not completely pull out, but just stood one step outside the reasonable collision zone, preparing to defend Lin Sen who might rush in.

Snapped!

Lin Sen swatted the ball hard and made a change of direction.

Seeing Nelson's response in front of him, Lin Sen changed direction again and immediately accelerated.

Milicic's size successfully helped Linsen block Nelson's assist. Ariza, who was closest to Linsen, immediately stepped up from the diagonal side, and Garnett inside also moved to wait for Linsen's arrival.

"Attacking the inside?" Bill Walton asked, looking at Lin Sen who rushed to the inside without hesitation. It was not a good choice to rush inside to face Garnett and Ariza who came up from the side to defend.

It could even be said to be a wrong choice, but Lin Sen didn't seem to have any concerns at all, so he was very confused.

Garnett stared at Lin Sen who was rushing towards him and raised his right hand high, while Ariza on the other side took a step back and tried to block Lin Sen's breakthrough line on the right.

Behind him, Jamal Nelson pounced on Eddie Jones, who was guarding Ariza. It seemed that Lin Sen could only choose to do it by himself this time.

With a sudden rush, Garnett's eyes widened and he took a step forward to wait for Lin Sen's arrival. Ariza on the other side was also ready to deal with Lin Sen's breakthrough.

What?

Garnett was stunned for a moment because Lin Sen did not choose to rush towards him but chose to step back.

Lin Sen swatted the ball with his left hand, and the basketball immediately changed its placement point and hit directly to his crotch.

After hitting the ground, the ball bounced from his crotch to Lin Sen's right side, and at the same time he quickly recovered it with his right hand.

Garnett immediately realized that Lin Sen was likely to choose a pull-up jumper. He immediately jumped up, hoping to use his height and wingspan advantages to block Lin Sen's shooting space. However, Garnett did not dare to press down for fear of being blocked by Lin Sen.

Mori cheating foul.

Lin Sen jumped high. This choice was completely beyond the expectations of Garnett and Ariza. Because Lin Sen had not made a mid-range shot in this game so far, Garnett even forgot that Lin Sen actually had the choice.

A mid-range shooter, although his shooting ability is not ideal.

Facing Garnett's cover, Lin Sen's body grew taller and taller.

The ball left Linsen's hand and crashed high into the basket behind Garnett.

Whoosh!

There was a clear sound of wiping the net, and Lin Sen clenched his fist fiercely.

"One point left, one point left!" After muttering softly, Lin Sen immediately backed away quickly.

Standing on the three-point line with his arms spread wide, he glared at Nelson who was dribbling forward and shouted: "Defense!"

"Is this Wood's first mid-range shot in the game?" Bill Walton turned his head and looked at Hoffman.

"If I remember correctly, then this ball is."

"Even if KK is Wood's teammate, he will be deceived by Wood not taking a mid-range shot in the whole game. No one would have thought that he would choose to take a mid-range shot at such a critical moment. But Wood did it. This reminds me of someone saying

Wood can still shoot from mid-range. I think he needs to work on his mid-range shooting in the summer," Bill Walton said.

Devin Casey conservatively used the last short pause of the team's long and short pauses. He hoped that through arrangement, the team would be more certain to win the game.

"There are still 32 seconds left before the end of the game, which means Orlando still has at least one chance to attack, but for them, the most important thing is to defend well this time, and Devin naturally wants the ball to call this timeout.

The team can make better use of the ball through this timeout."

"Oh, Stan chose to make a substitution. He replaced Chris and replaced Dennis. The old guy Dennis came on again. His performance today was not very good. Now that Dennis is put on the court, isn't he worried about Dennis' footsteps?

Will it cause problems for the team?" Bill Walton said as he looked at Rodman on the court.

Rodman pulled Lin Sen and others to explain again, and then went straight to the inside.

Garnett sent the ball to Nelson, who was not in a hurry at all. The best result was to send the ball into the basket while using up the twenty-four seconds of attack time.

When the time came to the last ten seconds of the twenty-four seconds, Lin Sen did not stay where he was but pressed forward directly.

However, Nelson passed the ball directly, and the receiver was Garnett who came out from the inside, but at this moment Milicic was standing in front of Garnett.

Garnett, who caught the ball, did not take action himself, but directly passed the ball to Ricky Davis who was running up.

Ricky Davis didn't hesitate. He used Garnett to get rid of Grant Hill's guard, then jumped up and threw the ball.

Just after the ball was released, the shot clock sounded with 24 seconds left. The Orlando fans in front of the TV breathed a sigh of relief because Ricky Davis' shot at the buzzer failed to hit.

Rodman directly pushed away Blount and then blocked Garnett behind him.

"Dennis' key defensive rebound. He preserved a glimmer of hope for Orlando!" Bill Walton shouted loudly, and Rodman, who grabbed the rebound, immediately requested a timeout.

"It was so nervous. Minnesota gave Orlando 7 seconds of opportunity. 7 seconds is enough time to accomplish many things on the basketball court, such as an extremely exciting buzzer beater! Now I think all the pressure must have returned to Minnesota."

Bill Walton looked at Devin Casey who was surrounded by Timberwolves players and said.

As Bill Walton said, Devin Casey was too eager to win this game, so he paid special attention to this defense and kept reminding Linson loudly.

Although Lin Sen only stayed with the Timberwolves for more than 20 games, Lin Sen's key ball ability left a deep impression on Devin Casey.

Although there were moments when New Orleans failed to hit the final three shots, Washington's final buzzer beater and the two games against San Antonio successfully completed the fatal blow.

However, Lin Sen's mid-range jumper just now made Devin Casey have to pay attention. Although Lin Sen himself tended to use three-pointers to solve the problem at critical moments in the Timberwolves, after all, the Magic were only one point behind at the moment.

"Hido, Chris, Eddie, Kelana, and Wood, you five come on!" Stan Van Gundy quickly called out the players and immediately began to make arrangements.

Lin Sen is the undisputed first choice, while Turkoglu and Weber are the second and third choices when the first tactic cannot be used.

beep!

A whistle broke the oppressive atmosphere at the target center, and the final moment of decisive battle arrived.

7 seconds!

7 breathtaking seconds!

"Seven seconds are enough for the Timberwolves to complete a tactical attack, and they can also give Wood himself a singles shot. What is Orlando's choice? I believe that whether it is tactics or singles, the final first shooter must be Wood. Although Wood is a rookie, but

Everyone knows he has a big heart." Hoffman said as he looked at Lin Sen walking up.

Under the cover of his teammates, Lin Sen received a pass from Weber. After serving the out-of-bounds ball, Weber immediately cut inside.

Garnett immediately chased Webb into the paint, and Linsen got the ball and all the other players ran away.

"This is a single! But other players in Orlando can also catch the ball and complete the final shot at any time. Trevor is under tremendous pressure." Bill Walton looked at Ariza and said.

The basketball shuttled around Lin Sen at an extremely fast speed, making people worried that Lin Sen would make a mistake because he dribbled the ball too fast.

Ariza didn't dare to make a move at all, fearing that a strike would cause a foul and send Lin Sen to the free throw line.

A fierce sprint followed by an emergency stop and a sway of his upper body. Ariza reacted immediately. He subconsciously thought that Lin Sen was going to shoot, but in order to avoid being fouled, he did not take off.

However, at this time Lin Sen accelerated again, and Ariza immediately retreated.

Lin Sen pulled the ball horizontally and jumped directly to the left of the free throw line.

Ariza also jumped up immediately, but at this moment he was still some distance away from Lin Sen.

"Wood, mid-range pull-up jumper!" Hoffman shouted as he looked at Lin Sen leaping into the air.

At this moment, the time on the timer has reached the last second.

"Go for it!"

Lin Sen looked at the basket in the distance and flicked the ball out.

This goal was his farewell to the Timberwolves!

Ariza fanned the air with his hands and watched the ball fly into the air.

When the ball reached the highest point in the sky, the whistle sounded to end the game.

"Goodbye, Minnesota!"

After landing, Lin Sen turned around and blew a kiss to the Minnesota Timberwolves flag above the arena.

Whoosh!

There was a wave of waves in the net behind him. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
