After the start of the second quarter, both the Magic and the Clippers entered the second lineup. Stan Van Gundy did not replace Chris Webber and Grant Hill because the team fell behind.

However, under the encouragement of Stan Van Gundy and the changes in the Clippers' defense, the Magic and the Clippers were evenly matched.

When the fifth minute of the second quarter came, Lin Sen stood up on the bench.

"Wood stood up. It looked like Wood was definitely going to play. Stan was still explaining something. Wood at least looked confident." Hoffman said, looking at Lin Sen and Stan Van Gundy on the sidelines.

"beep!"

As the whistle blew, Stan Van Gundy forced a short pause and simply emphasized that he would stick to the "Wood" tactic.

"Maybe Orlando has found a way." Bill Walton said with a smile when he saw that it was not Lin Sen but Turkoglu who was holding the ball on the court.

"That's how I feel," echoed Hoffman.

Turkoglu dribbled the ball through halftime, and Linsen was very confident in the so-called "Wood" tactic, especially when the opponent was not aware of it and was more than 90% sure to break the deadlock.

Once the deadlock is broken, time often becomes easier.

When he was still more than one meter away from Maggette, Linsen not only did not ask for the ball, but ran further away from Turkoglu.

Maggette stared at Lin Sen in front of him carefully, but he did not dare to be careless. Livingston on the side was also staring eagerly.

Lin Sen suddenly accelerated from about 45 degrees to the top of the middle arc. This move made Maggette nervous and attracted Livingston to double-team him immediately.

However, before Livingston's double-team was in place, Lin Sen suddenly stopped and turned around.

Maggette reacted quickly, but a body blocked him.

"Cover!" Bill Walton shouted.

Lin Sen used Azubuike's cover to throw away Maggette and go straight to the inside.

Insiders Elton Brand and Chris Kaman both stared at Lin Sen who rushed in, even though Lin Sen did not have the ball at the moment.

However, Dwight Howard and Turkoglu who passed the ball to Arroyo from the outside helped Linsen solve the problem.

When Lin Sen ran out from the inside, there was no one around him.

"Wood continued to use screens to get out of position. It was obvious that they were banking on crazy pick-and-roll screens." Bill Walton said while looking at Linsen who ran towards the open space in the right corner.

Arroyo saw Lin Sen was about to run out of space and passed the ball in his hand without hesitation. The ball came to him as soon as Lin Sen placed it.

He caught the pass steadily and was in the open space at the moment. Lin Sen, who shot 44% of his three-pointers in the regular season, was not going to be polite. He looked at the basket in the distance and immediately jumped up.

"It's so beautiful. Wood's shooting posture is even more beautiful than the textbook shot." Hoffman praised.

Looking at the basket, he flicked his fingers and the basketball immediately flew away from Lin Sen's hand.

The ball drew a perfect arc and fell directly to the basket amid Staples's boos.

Although the Staples people were very reluctant, the ball still passed through the net steadily and caused a wave of white waves.

"Great job! That's it!" Stan Van Gundy waved his fist. This tactic seems to be very simple and non-stop screening. But for the Magic, it is extremely important. It will be the most important thing when the team cannot open up the situation.

weapons.

Lin Sen gave Arroyo a thumbs up to express his gratitude. Devin Casey in front of the TV looked at Lin Sen on the TV with amusement. If Lin Sen was not traded away, he must be seriously preparing for the season.

Instead of launching a final effort towards the playoffs, this effort seems to be getting more and more difficult.

"That's it, shoot them to death. Otherwise I can't spare you!" Paul waved his fist excitedly. Although the Clippers still led the Magic by 12 points at the moment, he believed that the Magic would be able to stage a reversal.

The Clippers' offense was once again in the hands of their leader Brand. Lin Sen on the outside wanted to go up to make up the defense, but Maggette made him a little afraid and had to give up his plan to go up and make up the defense.

Facing Turkoglu's defense, Elton Brand made a strong back attack and then turned around and sent the ball into the Magic basket, narrowing the point difference between the two sides to 14 points.

"Elton's condition is the biggest guarantee for the Clippers' ability to enter the playoffs. The Clippers need his outstanding performance. If Stan doesn't replace him, Hido won't be able to defend Elton at all." Hoffman looked at

said the Magic bench.

In the transition between offense and defense, Lin Sen still did not dribble, but handed the ball to Arroyo.

But after halftime, Lin Sen leaned on Maggette to pass the basketball.

Lin Sen tentatively bumped into Maggette behind him with his back, then turned around and faced Maggette's defense head-on in a triple-threat move.

Maggette raised a hand and stretched it out in front of Lin Sen. Lin Sen stood firmly with his left foot and tested his right foot twice in a row.

Turkoglu, who was on the inside, glanced at Lin Sen and immediately pulled out.

This move forced Elton Brand to pull him out immediately. You must know that Turkoglu's outside shooting ability is very strong. If he didn't follow him out, Turkoglu's chances would be great.

With the help of Terkoglu's cover, Linsen got rid of Maggette's defense, and then the moment he got rid of the defense, Linsen passed the ball directly to Azubuike, and the moment Linsen passed the ball, Dwight.

Howard also ran towards Lin Sen.

With the help of Howard's cover, Linsen once again got rid of Kaman's defense, and Azubuike also passed the ball to Arroyo. Arroyo hit the ball directly and passed the ball directly to the inside.

At this time, Lin Sen was completely open. Facing the unguarded basket, Lin Sen easily sent the ball into the basket.

"Obviously, Orlando has the idea of ​​​​picking and rolling screens. It has been like this for two consecutive attacks, but the Clippers' defense can't do anything. Mike may have to make adjustments." Hoffman looked at Mike on the sidelines.

Dunleavy.

Immediately afterwards, the Clippers' offense hit the Magic's defense, and Howard picked off the defensive rebound.

Lin Sen immediately stretched out his hand to signal Howard to pass the ball. After receiving the ball, Lin Sen immediately accelerated.

Before Maggette could react, Lin Sen had already passed the frontcourt.

Livingston quickly retreated to the free throw line. However, Lin Sen did not attack the inside but made an emergency stop outside the three-point line.

When Livingston realized what Lin Sen was thinking, it was too late. Lin Sen made an emergency stop and immediately jumped up and threw the ball out unreasonably.

This chase-up three-pointer made Mike Dunleavy nervous off the court.

Although the team was still 10 points ahead, he could no longer sit still and was about to call a timeout.

However, the Clippers' offense once again hit the ground running. However, this time the Clippers did not give the Magic a chance for a fast break.

Lin Sen took the ball past half-court this time. Just after half-time, Maggette immediately pressed forward.

Lin Sen stopped at the top of the arc and looked at Maggette with his arms open, but Lin Sen had no intention of stopping his movements.

Maggette's hips changed directions, but Maggette remained unmoved, still staring at Lin Sen with her arms spread wide.

With another change of direction, Lin Sen suddenly started to accelerate. Livingston on the side also moved, and he needed to block Lin Sen's path.

Bang!

However, Livingston and Maggette, who retreated quickly, felt that they had hit a wall at the same time. When they got around, Linsen had already shot from outside the three-point line not far away.

Whoosh!

Another crisp sound of net wiping made those who were looking forward to the Magic's victory cheer.

This three-pointer narrowed the point difference between the two sides to within 10 points, leaving only 7 points behind, giving hope to those who supported the Magic.

"Beautiful defense, Sean obviously didn't expect Wood's sudden appearance." Hoffman watched Lin Sen suddenly appear in front of Livingston on the court, causing Livingston to make a glorious strike.

Turkoglu grabbed the defensive rebound, and the Magic's offense immediately came back. There was almost no change from the previous offense. The only change was that Lin Sen did not hold the ball again this time but ran without the ball, once again relying on Howard and

Azubuike's screen found an opening.

After catching the ball and making a hit, it was that simple, the score difference came to 4 points.

The entire second quarter became Lin Sen's personal shooting performance time, constantly using pick-and-roll screens to sneak out of the open space, and then the rest was to catch and shoot.

Although Dunleavy called a timeout, the Clippers' offense improved, but the defense was still difficult.

At the end of the second quarter, Lin Sen had scored 21 points and the two sides were tied.

"This is the last offense in the third quarter. Will Mike Dunleavy have the urge to commit suicide? Wood's running position is still his biggest headache. Now Orlando has become the leading side."

With the help of Howard's cover, Linsen bypassed Maggette's marking and rushed inside. Looking at Brand's defense, Linsen passed the ball to the high post Turkoglu. But he did not stop.

With a running step, the whole person slipped towards the bottom line.

Turkoglu immediately passed the ball to Lin Sen. Lin Sen received the ball and rushed into the paint again. He fired up Brand with a sudden stop and feint shot, and then he directly leaned forward and heard the referee's whistle.

Throwing the ball into the basket.

"Smart play." Bill Walton couldn't help but admire Lin Sen's choice.

However, the Clippers recovered in the fourth quarter. The Magic could not prevent the Clippers' offense, and the two sides launched an offensive battle.

When there were three minutes left in the fourth quarter of the game, the Clippers, who were playing at home, trailed the Orlando Magic by a slim 2 points.

"Attack! Attack! Attack!"

A huge force gathered in the Staples auditorium to cheer for the Clippers players.

Cassel steadily controlled the ball and came to the frontcourt. Being experienced, he did not choose to attack rashly, but chose to suppress the team's rhythm to stabilize the players' mentality. Arroyo carefully looked in front of him.
