legendary point guard

Chapter 392

"Is Wood still preparing to pass the ball this time?" Hoffman said looking at Lin Sen holding the ball.

Snapped!

Snapped!

Two consecutive changes of direction made Ronnie Brewer nervous. He could fully feel Lin Sen's progress this season. To defend Lin Sen's breakthrough, he had to keep up with his pace, even if it was just a little slower to wait for him.

It just got cleaned up.

Brewer's position was very stable, but Lin Sen didn't care. When the third change of direction followed, he didn't care at all that Brewer seemed to make defensive changes because of his change of direction. Lin Sen relied on his instant explosive power.

Sen directly increased his speed and cut to the right side of Brewer's body unreasonably.

His right hand separated Brewer and his left hand controlled the ball. Lin Sen's center of gravity was very low. When he took the second step, Brewer was left behind by Lin Sen.

"Wood, this is the familiar Wood, a completely unreasonable first step. Ronnie defended very well and still got the dust from Wood!" Bill Walton seemed to be energetic all of a sudden, and his eyes were fixed on the rushing man.

Lin Sen inside.

Carlos Boozer immediately pulled out and looked at Linsen rushing in, ready to defend at any time, but he still opened his left arm and stretched it to Chris Webber's side to prevent Linsen from attracting his defensive pass.

, after all, Weber's mid-range shooting was outstanding, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Sen was less than two meters away from him.

Facing Boozer who was covering the defense, Linsen swatted the ball and grabbed it firmly with both hands. At the same time, he stepped on the right side of Boozer's body with his right foot and quickly directed the ball towards Milicic who was far away from Boozer's defensive area.

Flick that side.

Seeing Lin Sen's passing action, Boozer moved toward Weber without thinking. This was the moment Lin Sen was waiting for.

When Lin Sen retracted the ball, he stepped on the left side of Boozer's body with his left foot and kicked off the ground.

"European step, the beautiful European step completely deceived Carlos. With an easy left-hand pick, Wood finally hit the first goal of the game. Look at the fake pass, I was also deceived." Hoffman smiled.

said.

"WOOD! WOOD! WOOD!"

The fans at the Water House Center cheered uniformly for Lin Sen's goal.

"Listen to the cheers from the audience, Wood is the only owner of the Water House Center." Bill Walton said as he looked at Lin Sen who was retreating.

Deron dribbled the ball through half court. The person responsible for defending Carlos Boozer inside was Howard. Although Howard had the advantage of height, Boozer was not afraid.

Boozer, who has a lower center of gravity and more strength, pushed Howard behind him with his butt raised after the scramble. He held Howard with his left hand and raised his right hand high to signal Deron to pass the ball.

"This time Utah gave up the pick-and-roll, and Carlos directly carried Dwight in the low post to ask for the ball. Dwight's blocking ability was really bad."

"Yes. As an inside player, Dwight's blocking skills are indeed very poor. If he can practice blocking well and his jumping ability will be more terrifying, it is a pity, just like his hook steps and free throws.

." Bill Walton raised his eyebrows, "By the way, I forgot that Dwight's free throw shooting this season has improved a lot compared to last season. The shooting percentage has reached 62%. Although it still looks bad, it is this for Orlando.

It’s already a huge improvement.”

At this time, Deron also directly lobbed the ball in.

Boozer took the ball firmly with his right hand and pushed his butt back again, and other Jazz players also started running.

Lin Sen immediately followed Deron and ran to the other side of the three-point line, while Brewer ran over from the left.

The Turk Okur on the inside pushed Weber and then ran to the high post. Weber did not dare to let go of his defense on Okur, so he immediately chased after him.

The entire inside line was suddenly empty, leaving enough space for Boozer to play Howard alone.

Lin Sen is standing one step inside the 45-degree three-point line on the left side. Deron is standing outside the three-point line at any time, ready to receive Boozer's pass.

Glancing at Boozer, who was holding the ball and beating Howard in isolation, Linsen moved toward Boozer. Boozer immediately became alert and looked at Deron, and Linsen immediately took it back.

Seeing Lin Sen retreat, Boozer was relieved and swatted the ball again and bumped it behind him.

Howard, who had always raised his arms, did not dare to press down at all, and took a small step back under Boozer's impact.

Howard took a small step back, which was an excellent opportunity for Boozer. He shot the ball again, turned to the right with his left foot as the axis, and then stepped directly to the center with his right foot.

Just as Boozer turned to the right, Lin Sen, who was one step inside the three-point line, crossed over as quickly as possible.

Deron reacted immediately after Lin Sen started. Just when he was about to issue a warning, Boozer turned around and shook his upper body. Howard, who was guarding him, subconsciously jumped up.

Boozer was about to send the ball into the basket with a time difference, but when he watched Howard fall, he raised the ball with both hands.

Snapped!

A big yellow hand struck directly on top of the basketball. Facing the sudden hand, Boozer was completely unprepared.

"Wood. Wood made a steal and knocked the ball out of Carlos' hands!"

Following Hoffman's voice, the ball in Boozer's hand escaped Boozer's control, and Lin Sen took the ball in his hands with a quick stride.

"Wood added another steal to his statistics. This was his third personal steal tonight. This time Utah responded quickly and Wood did not have a good chance."

"Being able to be fast or slow, and knowing how to control the team's rhythm is a mature performance. Wood performed well in this aspect." Bill Walton praised Linsen.

After dribbling the ball past half-court, Brewer stood in front of Linsen.

Battier ran from the left 45 degrees to the top of the key, and Lin Sen also ran over with the ball. After a brush with Battier, Lin Sen passed the ball to Battier.

Just when Brewer was about to follow Linsen, Linsen did not run to the left. Instead, he circled Battier and ran to the right.

Kirilenko, who was responsible for defending Battier, immediately drove away from Battier and pounced on Linsen, and the ball in Battier's hand also flew back to Linsen immediately.

After Lin Sen caught the ball, he lifted the ball with both hands and shook his upper body. Even though the defender who was rushing towards him was Kirilenko, he couldn't help but jump up.

With a bow, Kirilenko flew in front of Lin Sen. Watching Kirilenko fly over, Lin Sen swatted the ball with his left hand, moved a step to the left and really jumped.

When Brewer threw away Battier and rushed forward, he was already a beat late. When his hand came to Linsen, the ball had already flown into the air.

"WOOD! THREEPOINT..."

Along with the extended sound of the live DJ, the fans in the audience cheered loudly.

"I scored two goals in a row, a layup and a special three-pointer. In just two attacks, Wood scored five points. Suddenly, the Magic turned on the offensive mode and narrowed the point difference to 8 points. I think Utah must be very uncomfortable, Jerry.

Sloan's request for a timeout is indeed necessary, but Wood will probably sit on the court after the timeout." Hoffman said as he looked at the Jazz players walking off the court.

As Hoffman said, after returning from the timeout, Lin Sen sat off the court, and the Jazz also made adjustments, and the two sides entered the second lineup competition.

Because the Jazz's outside defensive ability was so outstanding, Stan Van Gundy did not replace Linson prematurely.

"Deron holds the ball, Chauncey defends, Carlos screens!"

With Hoffman's words, Deron used Boozer's screen to get rid of Billups' defense. Artest on the other side made a cover, and Deron immediately passed the ball.

Artest immediately turned around, but Korver still shot the ball resolutely.

"WOW, it was Kyler who hit a three-pointer directly from Deron again. This was his second three-pointer tonight. Utah was only three points behind Orlando. Stan asked for a timeout. Wood has been resting for a long time."

Bill Walton looked at the sidelines and said, the game had already progressed to the sixth minute of the second quarter.

After the timeout, Linsen replaced Devin Brown and returned to the court.

Lin Sen, who had just come on the field, used a circle tactic to attract Oku's defense and then passed the ball to Howard with one hit. Howard easily completed a dunk with both hands.

"The transmission is really comfortable." Howard stretched out his palm and gave Lin Sen a high-five.

"It belongs to the cooperation between Wood and Dwight. Dwight's goal is too easy. He only needs to press the ball into the basket. This is also the epitome of Dwight's scoring in the game. He has too many such opportunities.

, so his shooting percentage is very high and he averages a lot of points per game, but in fact his offensive ability is far from what his points per game reflect." Hoffman commented.

"Of course, we can't ask Dwight to play like Yao, but... forget it, I won't say it." Bill Walton shrugged.

At this time, the Jazz had switched from defense to offense. Deron advanced quickly. After a cross move, Lin Sen had to withstand Deron's body.

"Be gentle!" Lin Sen said against Delong.

"Why do I think you mean something else?" Delong said as he bumped into Lin Sen with his strong body. He was not merciful because of the relationship between the two.

Although Lin Senxia's strength improved a lot, he still retreated a little under Deron's impact.

"You are indeed much stronger than last season. I didn't realize it last time we played against each other." Deron said with a smile, and bumped into Lin Sen again. Lin Sen took a small step back under the impact.

Lin Sen knew that such a tough defense would definitely not work, but Deron had already had his own ideas.

Delong hit again, but just as he hit Lin Sen, Lin Sen suddenly made a half-dive.

This half-back was completely unexpected by Deron. He stumbled and his control of the ball was also messed up.

And this was the opportunity Lin Sen was waiting for. He directly got out of Deron's body and struck the ball with his left hand like lightning.

Snapped!

With one click, the ball flew straight out.
