Lin Sen has forgotten the joy of just scoring a goal. It's not the end of the game yet. The Magic's defensive formation at the moment relies more on man-marking and active running defense by teammates.

Azubuike is closely following Vince Carter, Turkoglu is following Richard Jefferson, and as for the Magic at the moment, the two towers of Dwight Howard and Darko Milicic are inside.

The defensive arrangement will at least prevent the Nets from attacking the inside at will.

Lin Sen was responsible for guarding Jason Kidd. Kidd played so well in this game. Lin Sen bent over with his hands on his knees and waited for Kidd's arrival. At the same time, he also used this little time to recover his limited energy.

physical strength.

When Kidd dribbled the ball and came to a distance of only about one meter away from Lin Sen, Lin Sen's hands supporting his knees were half-expanded, his body was half-bowed and he did not go up to hit him with his body. Although Kidd was already 33 years old, Kidd

His physical strength is unmatched by the current Lin Sen.

Kidd's data is enough to tell everyone how hard he played in this game, and he put in a huge effort both defensively and offensively.

Behind all these efforts is undoubtedly his desire for victory and his protest against the humiliating way of sweeping the competition.

Directing his teammates to move, Kidd looked at Lin Sen in front of him. Lin Sen, a rookie, was one step away from him.

The ball passed back and forth under his crotch, not very fast, and it looked like it could be broken with just a little pressing, but Lin Sen didn't dare to strike casually.

Kidd had no regrets that Lin Sen was not fooled. His left wrist suddenly changed direction, and the ball bounced off the floor and flew straight to Lin Sen's side.

When Lin Sen subconsciously stretched out his hand, the ball had already passed by him.

"Jason, pass the ball!" Kenny Smith shouted.

Kidd's pass increased the spin of the ball, which directly caused the ball to not bounce directly along a straight line after hitting the ground, but to the left with the help of Richard Jefferson's cover to temporarily get rid of Azubuike.

Vince Carter.

Although Lin Sen is confident in his ability to control the ball and his passing ability, although Lin Sen can also pass the ball like Kidd, he has the self-knowledge and wants to be as accurate as Kidd.

Not completely sure.

After receiving the ball, Vince Carter directly pulled up and threw the ball, and the ball was thrown out before Milicic's defense was in place.

Whoosh!

The ball went into the net and the New Jersey Nets fans at the scene were excited.

"Vince's touch is still excellent. This is an extremely critical goal. At 98:97, the Nets regained the lead by 1 point. There were 84 seconds left before the end of the game. Unknowingly, Vince also scored 37 points in this game.

, what kind of counterattack is Orlando preparing to make?" Kenny Smith set his sights on Linsen.

84 seconds means that under normal circumstances there are four offensive rounds, leaving the Magic with only two offensive opportunities. Therefore, the importance of this offense is self-evident.

Lin Sen quickly dribbled the ball across the half court. The New Jersey Nets' defensive formation changed to a confrontational zone defense. Jason Kidd stood in front of Lin Sen. Although Vince Carter was guarding Azubuike,

More attention was focused on Lin Sen.

The number of times Lin Sen and Kidd faced each other was very limited throughout the game. Compared with Kidd, the only thing Lin Sen was confident about was his speed and shooting. Lin Sen didn't even think about fighting physically.

With two consecutive hips, he pulled the ball with his right hand and slid to his right. Kidd immediately moved his steps. At the same time, Carter also moved his steps towards Lin Sen. However, just as Carter moved his steps, Ah

Zubke had already run in the opposite direction to Carter's movement under Linsen's advance signal and headed straight for the left corner.

At the same time, Milicic on the inside ran to the left mid-range, just in time to provide a screen for Azubuike.

Carter did not expect that Azubuike's running would be so resolute, and he immediately temporarily aroused Linsen's help defense, but Richard Jefferson on the other side quickly took over the role played by Carter just now.

However, Linsen did not give Richard Jefferson a chance. Dwight Howard on the inside quickly pulled out. At the same time, Turkoglu, who was guarded by Richard Jefferson, moved inside from a 45-degree angle from the right.

Cut away, and the ball in Linsen's hand was passed to Turkoglu at the same time.

"Wood passed the ball, Hido's chance this time is actually not good!" Kenny Smith said as he looked at Turkoglu who faced Kostic's defense after receiving the ball on the field.

After passing the ball, Lin Sen suddenly reversed and ran away from Kidd to the left side of the free throw line.

The ball in Turkoglu's hand was immediately passed over, and at this time Linsen was temporarily in an open position, and Collins inside the Nets had to pounce to cover.

Snapped!

Lin Sen pushed the ball with his right hand, and the ball passed through the wicket of Collins who came up to defend.

At the same time, Milicic moved to a mid-range position and quickly turned around, just in time to receive Lin Sen's ground pass.

"Oh, Collins got wicketed, Darko's chance!" barked Buckley.

Vince Carter, who was guarding Azubuike, pounced on Milicic. Collins also turned quickly to try to make up for his missed defense, but the two of them were still a beat late, and Milicic smashed the ball in with both hands.

basket.

"A goal worth thousands of dollars. Darko has completed his new life in Orlando this season. 99:98, Orlando fought back tenaciously. New Jersey was under great pressure. Lawrence asked for a timeout. He had to plan how to complete the key shot.

There are still 64 seconds left, and there are not many opportunities for New Jersey to shoot. They must make good use of it if they want to avoid a sweep." Kenny Smith said while looking at the big screen.

"Wood just did a very appropriate job of distributing the ball. Of course, Darko turned and cut very quickly, which seemed to let me see him before the draft. Although Darko has played for four seasons, he is only 22 years old.

There is still a lot of time to grow. This season, he mainly served as a substitute in Orlando. He played nearly 22 minutes per game and averaged 8.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.9 blocks, including nearly two per game.

Offensive rebound.

While getting such data in such playing time, he can provide stable defense for Orlando. There is no doubt that he is an important member of Orlando's bench. His contract will expire this season. I think such a

Data can allow many teams to offer a good contract. I wonder if Orlando has the courage to keep Darko, who is performing well, when facing Dwight's contract extension." Barkley said looking at the data in his hand.

"If I were Otis Smith, I would definitely be willing to offer a good contract. Of course, the premise is that no other team offers a better contract and a good timeout is up. The last 64 seconds are a little more than a minute.

New Jersey's offensive opportunity at that time." After Kenny Smith's words, the players from both sides returned to the court, and the Magic players did not press the Nets' serve.

After receiving the ball, Kidd quickly dribbled the ball through half court, but did not rush. What New Jersey needs most is the success rate rather than a hasty shot.

The defensive player standing in front of Kidd changed from Lin Sen to Azubuike, and Lin Sen was already standing near Carter.

Carter was running, Linsen followed closely. Kidd did not listen to hand the ball to Carter but chose to hand the ball to the inside.

"An unexpected pass. Could it be that New Jersey's strategy was to use Krstic to open up the situation? Is Lawrence so convinced that Dwight's defense is vulnerable?" Kenny Smith was puzzled.

This was because the other Nets players were running significantly faster, and Collins inside was pulled to the top of the key.

Lin Sen caught a glimpse of Collins running up from the corner of his eye, and he had a guess in his mind and moved his steps backward. At this time, Carter, who he was responsible for defending, suddenly accelerated.

Just as Linsen thought, Collins was providing an off-ball screen for Carter's movement.

Linsen, who had been on guard for a long time, retreated just enough to prevent him from being suddenly pulled out to cover Collins in order to chase Carter. Kostic immediately passed the ball when he saw Carter cutting in.

"Kostic passed the ball, Vince cut through with the help of the screen, New Jersey!" Kenny Smith shouted.

All the fans in the audience focused on Carter. When the ball came in front of him, Carter threw the ball to the basket with his right hand without even thinking about it.

Although Lin Sen was not blocked by Collins, he took a step away and was farther away from Carter. Seeing that Carter did not continue to attack the basket but directly took a step and jumped up, Lin Sen knew that he could not wait any longer and jumped directly.

He got up and rushed over.

"Be careful!" Kidd's voice had just entered Carter's ears, and the ball had already left Carter's hand and flew into the air.

The next second, all the Nets fans at the scene wanted to rush into the air to block that damn rookie.

Snapped!

Linsen let go of Collins' screen and directly caught the ball thrown by Carter with his right hand.

However, because Lin Sen jumped a little too far to block the ball, when he took the ball thrown by Carter into his hand, his body also hit Carter.

Lin Sen, who had taken off in a hurry, lost his center of gravity and fell to the floor.

"Oh, something happened to Wood and he suddenly fell to the floor." Barkley shouted.

Bang!

Lin Sen fell heavily to the floor, but before falling to the floor, Lin Sen still clamped the ball tightly. When he fell to the floor, the ball still escaped from his hands.

When Collins saw this scene, he immediately rushed forward. Looking at the ball in front of him, Linsen stretched out his hands and swept the ball into his hands, while quickly making a gesture requesting a timeout.

Even though Collins stretched out his hand, the referee's whistle sounded early.

Carter never imagined that this attack, the nearly perfect offensive coordination, would be destroyed, and it was destroyed in this way.

"Wood tactfully requested a timeout. This is an extremely valuable ball right for Orlando. But I still feel sorry for him. The sound just now was so loud. Vince must not understand how Wood did it.

Look at the replay, Wood prepared in advance, I think this is a sign of high golf intelligence?" Barkley's face was full of distressed expressions.

Not to mention Carolina on the sidelines, who has long been entangled.

She felt relieved when she saw Lin Sen being pulled up by Howard and Milicic.

"Yes, this is a direct reflection of high golf quotient. Some players are like this. They always play with their brains in mind. Wood's blocking and timeouts are really critical. Otherwise, if a scrum is called, no matter how good Wood's bounce is, it may not be able to help.

Orlando grabbed the ball, and now the pressure is completely back on New Jersey. Not only are they trailing by one point, they also lost the ball.

There are still 44 seconds left before the end of the game. Orlando will definitely use up almost 20 seconds of attack time as much as possible. In this way, even if this attack fails to score the one chance they still have, New Jersey must do a good job in this attack.

Our defense is really dangerous once Orlando scores a goal." Kenny Smith said.

The 20-second pause passed quickly, and Stan Van Gundy replaced Milicic because Milicic's free throw shooting rate was so similar to Howard's that both were less than 60%.

Milicic was replaced by Chris Webber, and Howard stood on the sidelines ready to serve.

As the whistle blew, Howard raised the ball. Kidd and Carter stared at Linsen, and finally Turkoglu pulled out and received Howard's serve.

Turkoglu held the ball in his arms and did not rush to dribble, but waited for Lin Sen to come up and catch the ball.

With the help of Weber's cover, Linsen temporarily got rid of Carter and ran towards Turkoglu. Turkoglu immediately handed the ball player to Linsen, then quickly ran to the other side and took away the defender who was guarding him.

Richard Jefferson.

After receiving the ball, Lin Sen also did not rush to dribble. Instead, he protected the ball between his waist and abdomen, leaning sideways on Carter.

Carter put his hands against Lin Sen's body, always maintaining a sense of pressure on the ball between Lin Sen's waist and abdomen, and at the same time gently hit Lin Sen with his chest.

Lin Sen pushed his butt towards Carter, asking Carter to stay as far away from him as possible. Time was important to the Nets and equally important to the Magic.

Carter, like Lin Sen, played this game for more than 40 minutes with almost no rest, so he also knew that Lin Sen, a rookie, had reached his physical limit.

Azubuike ran over from a distance. Seeing this scene, Carter leaving Lin Sen's body was exactly the same as Lin Sen's choice opportunity just now. Lin Sen breathed a sigh of relief when Carter left.

Lin Sen moved forward little by little and finally stopped on the left side of the three-point line.

Time is getting shorter and shorter, and fans from both sides are getting worried, and Orlando Magic fans naturally hope that the Magic will score another goal, so that the victory is almost achieved.

Turkoglu and Azubuike cut back and forth to stretch the Nets' defense as much as possible, while Chris Webber also pulled out to the mid-range, and Howard also pulled out, but Kostic did not follow too closely.

tight.

Seeing that the time before the end of the game entered 33 seconds, Lin Sen's dribbling rhythm began to speed up.

At the same time, Carter took a step forward and collided with Lin Sen's body again. Lin Sen's steps were slightly disturbed by Carter's impact, and the ball almost came out of his hand, which made Magic fans worried.

However, Linsen quickly regained control of the ball, and Carter also saw hope and struck again, but this time he quickly extended his hand at the same time, and Kidd on the other side also forced him over.

Lin Sen pulled the ball ahead of time, but still staggered under Carter's impact. It looked like a small boat swaying in a storm and in danger of capsizing at any time.

Just when his body was staggering, Lin Sen slammed the ball with his left hand, using his right foot as the pivot.

Leaning on Carter's left hand that was close to him, he pulled the ball, hit Carter with his back, and then turned around.

"Oh, Wood pulled the ball and turned around, he seemed to be full of energy instantly!" Kenny Smith shouted.

Carter also didn't expect that Lin Sen, who was still shaky just now, would make changes in such a short period of time.

After completing his turn, Lin Sen swatted the ball with his right hand and quickly stepped out with his right foot.

Carter was left behind by him, and at this time Jason Kidd came up to defend in time. Carter could only quickly defend Azubuike to avoid giving Azubuike an open shot.

Not far away, Collins was also eyeing him. Lin Sen did not choose to pass the ball but chose to hit the ground himself.

Lin Sen did not continue to cut inside. Instead, he regained control of his body and stepped back, exiting the three-point line.

Kidd didn't expect that Lin Sen would choose to retreat instead of advance, but he was very focused and pressed forward instead of giving Lin Sen an open chance to take action.

Looking at Kidd who quickly came up to him, Lin Sen moved his crotch and shook his upper body at the same time.

The time has also entered the last 30 seconds. The best result for the Magic is to leave more than 24 seconds to complete this offense regardless of whether it is scored or not.

The right hand catches the ball that passes under the crotch and hits the ball again. The ball passes under the crotch again, and at the same time, the body shakes to the right.

Something Kidd didn't expect happened. Lin Sen stepped out with his left foot instead of his right foot, and he stepped directly to the right side of his body.

The moment Lin Sen stepped out with his left foot, he slapped the ball with his left hand, and the ball passed through his crotch and bounced to his right hand.

Making such an unconventional breakthrough in such a short period of time, the experienced Kidd quickly took half a step back.

Snapped!

Slapping the ball with his right hand, Lin Sen's right foot did not step forward but directly retreated.

"Step back?"

Kidd immediately took a step forward, and at the same time Linsen withdrew his left foot.

The whole person retreated directly from the three-point line, and Kidd was about to stand in front of him again.

Lin Sen, however, did not let him wait. Instead, he grabbed the moment before Kidd reached his position and jumped up.

"Wood, it was too sudden. Is it another typical Wood unreasonable goal or a stupid choice?" Kenny Smith said as he looked at Lin Sen who jumped up.

At this time, Kidd also jumped up, but his blocking height was really limited, so Kidd simply stretched his hand directly towards Lin Sen's eyes.

Lin Sen leaned back, trying to get out of Kidd's hands as much as possible, and slowly the basket appeared in front of his eyes.

"Wood's fadeaway three-pointer, a difficult three-pointer." Barkley shouted, the ball flew into the air, and Howard, Webber and Collins Kostic inside were competing for position.

"Don't come in!" Frank yelled in his mind.

However, God did not hear his prayer, and the ball made a low arc and hit the basket directly.

boom!

Lin Sen fell to the floor again, watching the ball pass through the net. Lin Sen raised his fist high, and the lights above the izod center were so dazzling.

"Wood, crazy Wood, I really don't know what words to use to describe this rookie, 102:98, 25 seconds left, New Jersey must score and then have a chance of survival." Kenny Smith looked towards the sidelines.

Nets player said.

However, after the timeout, Carter's three-point shot hit the frame and Webber grabbed the key defensive rebound.

Collins immediately resorted to foul tactics, and Weber, who stepped to the free throw line, made two free throws, leaving the New Jerseyans in despair.

Although Carter then hit a three-pointer, the Nets only had 3 seconds left. Carter immediately fouled Linsen after receiving the ball.

Lin Sen walked to the free throw line amid boos, looked at the basket in the distance and shot the ball.

Whoosh!

"The first free throw hit, New Jersey's hopes were completely shattered!" Kenny Smith said.

Whoosh!

Two free throws were made, and the Nets' three-point shot in the last three seconds hit the basket at the end of the game.

"40 points, 40 points, 16 points in the last quarter, rookie leader Wood played the most perfect self-redemption in the game! Sweeping New Jersey, who else will be the Rookie of the Year!" Barkley roared! (To be continued.
