legendary point guard

Chapter 28: Tangled Devin Casey

"WOOD! WOOD! WOOD!"

The fans at the Target Center responded to Lin Sen with enthusiastic voices.

However, because Lin Sen directly fanned the ball out of bounds, the Blazers still had an opportunity to attack. At this time, there were five seconds left in the 24-second attack time.

The Timberwolves pestered the Trail Blazers up and down, but Roy used the screen to get rid of Hassell who was guarding him and received the ball.

Lin Sen appeared in front of Roy again, but this time Roy didn't give Lin Sen a chance.

Facing Lin Sen's defense, Roy hit the ball continuously and suddenly pulled the ball laterally and jumped up to shoot.

Lin Sen's block had no effect. Roy made up for the regret of being blocked by Lin Sen with a mid-range jumper.

"Look at other people, how accurate their mid-range shots are, tsk tsk!" Garnett said, patting Lin Sen's butt.

Looking at Lin Sen's angry eyes, Garnett chose to ignore it and turned to the baseline to serve.

"This is the last time!" Lin Sen glared at Garnett fiercely and said.

Garnett threw the ball directly to Linsen: "Let's talk about it next time."

"Next time, I will tell Brandi directly that you often go out to find women."

"you……"

"You can try." Lin Sen said triumphantly and immediately drove the ball forward.

After settling in for halftime, Lin Sen immediately directed the movement of his teammates. Finally, Lin Sen broke into the paint and passed the ball to Jaric outside the three-point line.

Jaric did not let Lin Sen's pass go to waste, and the ball he shot accurately went into the basket.

"Marco made a great shot!" Lin Sen gave a thumbs up to Jaric.

Devin Casey smiled. When Linsen and Jaric played together in the backcourt, although the defense was a little worse, the offense was very coordinated. Jaric didn't need to hold the ball much to attack, so he wouldn't take advantage of Linsen.

Ball rights.

Moreover, Jaric's shooting will be a good supplement to the team's offense, but this effect can only be achieved by partnering with Chen Hao. If Jaric, Mike James and Ricky Davis are far away

Far from this effect.

During the transition between offense and defense, the Portland Trail Blazers' ball possession finally came into the hands of Brandon Roy after continuous transmission.

And Lin Sen appeared in front of Roy again, and it looked like the two of them were completely in love.

McMillan and Devin Casey both watched the two rookies confronting each other on the court with interest.

Roy smiled at Lin Sen, who was in a defensive posture. He didn't expect Lin Sen to defend him.

The dribbling rhythm was fast and slow, and the ball passed back and forth from Roy's crotch, but Roy turned his back.

Play from behind?

Lin Sen was pushing against Roy, but he didn't expect that Roy would choose to hit him from behind.

Roy is taller than Lin Sen and weighs a lot more than Lin Sen.

Bang!

Roy bumped Lin Sen behind him with his back, and Lin Sen could only bite Roy's teeth.

Facing Roy who was attacking him from behind, Lin Sen's tenacious defense prevented Roy from finding a good offensive opportunity, but Lin Sen's disadvantage on the defensive end was still obvious.

His shoulders suddenly shook, and Lin Sen behind Roy immediately made some changes. At this time, Brandon Roy in front of Lin Sen turned over and leaned back.

Lin Sen immediately moved his steps and pounced on him, but he was still a little slow.

I could only watch helplessly as Roy threw the ball.

However, Lin Sen was lucky this time. Roy's shot failed and Garnett directly grabbed the defensive rebound.

Although Roy did not score, Lin Sen was not happy at all, because he was at a physical disadvantage in the competition with Roy.

Roy was not surprised that he failed to score. When he saw Garnett get the defensive rebound, he immediately turned around and ran to the backcourt.

In the following game, Lin Sen was able to move freely on the offensive end, especially his cooperation with Garnett, which made the fans at the Target Center cheer one after another.

Devin Casey seems to have seen the rise of another super combination of inside and outside players.

This year Lin Sen was 19 years old, and this year Kevin Garnett reached his personal peak at the age of 30.

When the first quarter ended, the Minnesota Timberwolves, playing at home, led the Trail Blazers with a slight advantage of 3 points.

However, at the beginning of the second quarter, when the backcourt combination of the second team became Ricky Davis and Mike James, the Timberwolves launched an unprecedented 14:4 offensive climax.

The main contributors to this wave of offense are Mike James and Ricky Davis. The cooperation between Mike James and Ricky Davis on the court is even more unbelievable to Devin Casey.

The two are as skilled as a backcourt combination that has been together for a long time. Mike James does not only focus on himself and the basket like in the first quarter, and Ricky Davis seems to have returned to the state he was in last season.

Devin Casey will naturally not replace Mike James and Ricky Davis who are in excellent form. Under such circumstances, Linson's playing time will naturally be reduced.

However, Lin Sen, who was on the bench, didn't think too much, but concentrated on watching the game.

It wasn't until 4 minutes left in the first half that Linsen and Jaric replaced Mike James and Ricky Davis, who performed very well in the second quarter. At this time, the Timberwolves still held a 10-point deficit against the Trail Blazers.

A double-digit lead.

After re-entering the game, Lin Sen threw the ball directly from outside the three-point line to the inside. Garnett easily completed a two-handed alley-oop under Zach Randolph's eye defense.

Lin Sen, who returned to the defensive end, once again showed his gambling steals, but this time he did not steal from the outside but took advantage of Randolph's single attack on Garnett to use his speed to surprise him and pass the ball directly from Randolph.

Take it out in your hand.

After returning to the offensive end, Linsen used Garnett's screen to go directly to the basket. Facing Randolph's defense, he not only completed the goal, but also caused Randolph's thug to foul.

Lin Sen lost his center of gravity and fell directly into the media area on the bottom line, knocking over a pile of photography equipment.

Lin Sen acted as if nothing was wrong, walked to the free throw line and hit the extra free throw.

The last four minutes of the first half undoubtedly belonged to Lin Sen. In four minutes, Lin Sen's outstanding performance with 6 points, 4 assists and 2 steals convinced the fans at the Target Center that he was not just a guy with a face.

Brandon Roy's performance was relatively bleak compared to Linsen's. At the end of the first half, the Timberwolves also had a huge 17-point lead.

But Devin Casey was not happy because Mike James and Ricky Davis also performed well.

Logically speaking, he should be happy. After all, Mike James was the one he advocated signing, and Ricky Davis was the one he wanted to play an important role before he took office.

When he saw Lin Sen walking off the court, chatting and laughing with Garnett, he couldn't help but frown. If Mike James and Ricky Davis were in bad shape, he wouldn't have such troubles.

But if the two of them can maintain this state in the second quarter, but if they can't play together with Lin Sen...

Devin Casey found himself a little confused.
