legendary point guard

Chapter 408 The day of being a father is getting closer

After receiving David Lee's serve, Jamal Crawford quickly dribbled the ball past half court.

Lin Sen pressed forward with open arms. Jamal Crawford's convulsive ability, like his singles ability, is enough to be among the best in this league.

After Linsen entered the league, he also used Crawford's signature passing move many times in the game, dribbling behind the back and jumping past people.

Lin Sen knew that as long as Crawford was in good condition, he would not be afraid even if he was being defended by a Bruce Bowen-level defensive player.

"Wood will defend Jamal, why not Shawn. Although I am a die-hard Wood fan, I will not forget Wood's shortcomings. Wood works hard on defense but needs more experience to support his defense. I believe that sooner or later

One day Wood will be a defensive player like Gary Payton."

"Hey, Charles, aren't you worried that Gary will spray you? And you are totally a high-level Woodhead. I bet few people except you will think that Wood's defense can be as strong as a 'glove'." Kenny Smith

reminded.

"I'm not a big talker. I believe in my vision. If you don't believe me, let's wait and see." Barkley snorted and looked towards the court.

Lin Sen has improved a lot on the defensive end this season compared to last season, but he is far from being excellent defensively. He can only say that he is trying not to lose his position as much as possible, but Stan Van Gundy is very satisfied with this.

Jamal Crawford's continuous cross-steps tested Linsen's defensive nerves.

Looking at Lin Sen in front of him, Crawford dribbled faster and faster.

Lin Sen's right hand blocked Jamal Crawford's eyes, trying to prevent Jamal Crawford from shooting suddenly.

Jamal Crawford's rhythm suddenly changed, and Lin Sen subconsciously moved his steps to the left.

"Shit!" Lin Sen regretted it as soon as he moved.

But Crawford didn't give Linsen a chance to regret. He quickly moved in the opposite direction and jumped up.

Lin Sen forcibly controlled his body weight and pounced, but Crawford had already thrown the ball when he pounced in front of him.

Seeing Crawford still maintaining his shooting motion, Lin Sen abruptly withdrew his hand. He didn't want to give Crawford a chance to hit four points.

"Wood controlled his momentum. Obviously he was worried that not only did he fail to guard Jamal, he would also give Jamal a three-point penalty. You must know that the best four-pointers in the league are him and Jamal." Barkley joked

road.

Crawford was a little disappointed. He was already ready to score four points when he saw Lin Sen charging forward. He didn't expect Lin Sen to be able to control his hand in the end, which made him a little depressed.

"With the same three-pointer, Jamal gave Wood the most positive counterattack. Just now, Wood made a shot above his head, and now Jamal hit one back on Wood's head. So what about the next shot?" Kenny Smith

Said with a smile.

Jamal Crawford raised his arms high to celebrate his three-point goal, and the fans at the Waterhouse Center booed.

Lin Sen took the serve from Eddie Griffin, glanced at the Knicks players in the frontcourt and smiled.

Lin Sen brought the ball to midfield and stopped, standing on top of the Magic team's target.

"Why did Wood stop suddenly?" Kenny Smith was very curious.

Just when everyone was surprised, Lin Sen raised his arms high in the air to signal for louder cheers.

The Magic fans who reacted suddenly burst out with crazy energy, which seemed to be able to shake the entire center of the water house.

"OH, Wood actually asked for cheers. This is a sign of Wood's confidence. In the first three games, Wood like this completely disappeared from the field, but today Wood is completely back. Listen to the cheers from the audience, there is no doubt that

Wood will definitely hit this ball by himself," Barkley said with a smile.

Standing on the three-point line and looking at Lin Sen, Jamal Crawford felt very unhappy. Although he was not good at defending, he was not ignored by anyone.

Since Lin Sen dared to be so arrogant, he didn't mind embarrassing Lin Sen in front of his home fans and the national TV audience. Determined, Crawford looked directly at Lin Sen, who was getting closer and closer.

"I dare say that Jamal may not have the determination to defend at this moment in his life. He must want to defend this ball." Kenny Smith joked.

"Of course, no one is willing to accept such humiliation, but I believe Wood can do it. He is not a guy without a cool head. I will wait and see about Wood's offense." Barkley looked at Lin Sen dribbling and smiled.

said.

When he was two steps away from the three-point line, Lin Sen stopped again and quietly looked at Crawford, who was one step away from him.

As Barkley said, Lin Sen is not a hot-headed guy. Since Lin Sen dares to take the lead in making a provocation, he must score the ball. He does not want to make himself a national joke.

The Knicks' insiders are currently David Lee and Reynaldo Balkman. Both of them are not very tall, but they are both guarding a small area under the basket at the moment.

However, with such a position, Lin Sen obviously does not intend to let Lin Sen break into the inside and score easily, while Quentin Richardson and Nate Robinson are watching eagerly from the side and can come up to help defend at any time.

"You're not going to let me score, are you?" Linsen looked at Crawford and said with a smile.

"What do you think?" Crawford responded with a sneer.

Crawford did not lose his defensive attention because he was talking to Lin Sen. He looked at Lin Sen fiercely. He wanted to put pressure on Lin Sen in every detail.

Lin Sen continued to dribble the ball from his hips and moved forward a little tentatively, but Crawford did not directly meet him. He was worried that if he did, he would be directly used by Lin Sen.

He was very aware of Lin Sen's speed, so Crawford kept retreating at a speed similar to Lin Sen's forward speed.

"Come on."

"Hmph!" Crawford snorted coldly. He was not that stupid and took the initiative to press forward.

Just when Crawford snorted, Lin Sen, who was advancing little by little, jumped up without any warning.

Crawford had no idea that when he reacted quickly and rushed to interfere, he could only try to interfere with Lin Sen's sight instead of blocking the shot.

"Get in!"

Lin Sen looked at the basket and confidently threw the ball out. Lin Sen felt very good about the ball. Lin Sen is a person who believes in his own feelings, so he made such a decision.

Barkley looked at the ball flying towards the basket and thought in his heart that it must go in, it must go in.

Lin Sen did not disappoint his supporters. This sudden pull-up jumper went smoothly into the basket.

"I said I would score." After Lin Sen said this, he turned around and opened his arms.

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

"Wood was too confident. But it was indeed a good shot. He did not let those who expected to laugh at him succeed. He scored two three-pointers in a row, and this three-pointer was a direct reply to Jamal, and it was far better than just now.

Jamal’s goals are more arrogant, but I think everyone will like Wood like this, even Knicks fans." Kenny Smith said with a smile.

Crawford took the serve unhappily. Linsen hit him twice in a row, and the one just now was the most direct humiliation to him. He must score another one.

After receiving David Lee's serve, Crawford quickly dribbled the ball past half court.

However, this time Lin Sen's defense was particularly tenacious. Even if he lost his position, he would regain his position because his teammates helped to cover up the defense. Crawford wanted to score one by himself. Even after Lin Sen lost his position, other Magic players came up to cover up the defense.

When the Knicks had an open opportunity, Crawford didn't choose to shoot.

Even though Isiah Thomas shouted to pass the ball off the court, Crawford still did not choose to pass the ball.

In the end, Crawford chose to break through the emergency stop, but Linsen did not lose his position and put a lot of pressure on Crawford. In the end, Crawford's shot failed to hit.

Isiah Thomas on the sidelines shook his arm angrily. The team was already 16 points behind, but when Crawford had a good opportunity, he didn't pass the ball and instead went for a single, which made him very dissatisfied.

Eddie Griffin got the defensive rebound and immediately handed it to Lin Sen. The Magic immediately turned from defense to offense, and with the cheers of the audience, the morale of the two teams began to change.

With the fans cheering, Lin Sen quickly dribbled the ball through halftime, Nate Robinson and Jamal Crawford.

"New York plans to double-team Wood, but Wood is not someone who doesn't pass the ball when Jamal's teammates have absolutely good opportunities. Wood is a true point guard." Barkley said with a smile.

"Jared, get ready to play. I'll leave that Wood Lin to you. Don't be too easy, just use your height to put pressure on him." Isiah Thomas glanced at the court and turned around and walked over to Jeff.

In front of Reese.

"Understood." Jeffries stood up and walked to the technical table.

"Oh, Isiah is ready to make substitution adjustments. Jared Jeffries is ready to play. Is it to defend Wood? Although his defense is good, his position is not three or four, which makes him unable to defend.

It will be a disadvantage, except for the height." Barkley said while looking at Jeffries sitting in front of the technical table waiting for a dead ball opportunity to play.

"Charles, don't forget that he has height and wingspan." Kenny Smith reminded.

Crawford and Nate Robinson on the court also saw this. They knew that Jeffries would definitely replace one of them when he came on the field, so they defended extra hard. But Linsen did not act recklessly and handed the ball over.

go out.

In the end, Chris Webber hit a mid-range jumper, and the Magic once again widened the point difference to 18 points.

The Knicks, who returned to the offensive end, finally succeeded in a layup from Nate Robinson on a layup. Even though it was a two-pointer, it temporarily alleviated the Knicks' bleeding, even if it was only temporary.

One minute later, as Battier missed a three-point shot from the baseline, the two sides scrambled for rebounds and knocked the ball out of the baseline, ushering in a dead ball opportunity.

Isiah Thomas simply replaced Nate Robinson and Balkman in addition to Quentin Richardson.

In this way, the three players in the Knicks lineup except Jeffries and David Lee are all starting players, and Stan Van Gundy replaced Chris Webber with Milicic and let Milicic and Eddie Griffin

Partnering inside, Howard was not replaced.

Not replacing Howard is not because Howard is not as good as Griffin, but to avoid the Knicks using foul tactics to disrupt the team's rhythm.

"Isiah replaced Nate, Quentin and Renaldo, and Orlando also replaced Chris and Sam. There are now six minutes left in the game and New York is still 18 points behind. If they

If we can no longer launch a counterattack, then this game will end here.”

"New York does not have the capital to launch a counterattack. Isiah must also be disappointed that Stan did not replace Dwight. This season, Darko's free throw shooting rate has increased to 73%, which is much improved than last season. Now Isiah wants to

There is no good effect in using foul tactics. Of course he can choose to try it," Barkley said with a smile.

After watching the video, the referee awarded the ball to the Magic. Lin Sen received the serve and did not rush to attack. He moved to the top of the key and raised his head to look at the timer.

The score difference is 18 points. As long as we work hard and score a few more points to increase the score difference to more than 20 points, the game will be completely unsuspicious.

Jeffries quickly positioned himself at the three-point line, waiting for Lin Sen.

Like Crawford defending Lin Sen, he did not press directly.

His speed is not an advantage at all, but his height and length of arms are his biggest advantage. He can effectively interfere with Lin Sen without using speed.

Lin Sen sized up Jeffries' defense, steadily controlled the ball and signaled Eddie Griffin to pull out as a screen.

Seeing Lin Sen's sudden acceleration, Jeffries immediately moved his steps.

Bang!

Jeffries, who was moving quickly, bumped into Eddie Griffin who was pulling out to cover, and Lin Sen, who was guarding him, took the opportunity to break in.

Lin Sen, who rushed in, glanced at Jamal Crawford, who was actively defending, and made an emergency stop.

Seeing Lin Sen's sudden stop, Crawford immediately jumped up. He stretched his arms as much as possible, but Lin Sen had no intention of taking a shot himself. He changed his shot into a pass, and the ball was thrown directly towards Crawford's defender.

Test.

Marbury's cover was also very quick, but his cover also caused him to lose Billups' defense. Artest quickly directed the ball to Billups.

After Billups received the ball, he was in an unguarded position and made an easy jump shot.

"New York's defense is very active. But it has not achieved any results. Instead, it has made its lineup full of holes. I really don't know how to evaluate their defensive enthusiasm." Barkley shook his head and said, "The score difference is 20 points.

, this is a score difference that is infinitely close to garbage time."

The game continued, with the Knicks making their final struggle. Two minutes later, the Knicks were still 20 points behind the Magic. At this moment, the Knicks' main lineup had all been replaced. The Magic still left Howard off the court.

In the words of Kenny Smith, Stan Van Gundy does not intend to give Isiah Thomas any illusions.

"Poor Isiah and his New York Knicks. Although the game is not over yet, they have become the object of ridicule across the country. Wood's independent offense has not been much in these few minutes. Will it happen again this time? If Orlando is allowed to do it again

If Isiah scores a goal, it’s better not to hold on and call a timeout to give up the game.” Barkley said while looking at Isiah Thomas on the sidelines.

Jeffries stood in front of Lin Sen with open arms. After he came on the field, Lin Sen's independent attacks decreased, which made him dare not relax at all. He didn't know when Lin Sen would do it by himself.

His left shoulder sank suddenly. At the same time, his left foot stepped out quickly, pointing directly at the left side of Jeffries' body.

"Finally, I did it by myself." Jeffries didn't have time to think too much, and immediately moved his steps without forgetting to open his arms. The long arms were his best defense.

Lin Sen swatted the ball with his right hand. The ball passed under his crotch and came to the left hand side, and his body leaned to the left at the same time.

After a collision with Jeffries' body, Lin Sen took a small step backwards. Seeing Lin Sen take a step back, Jeffries quickly raised his hand without thinking.

However, just when he raised his hand, Lin Sen, who had just stepped back, suddenly increased his speed, and at the same time, his left foot rushed to the left side of his body again.

When Jeffries tried to retreat to defend, Lin Sen had already passed him.

"Wood, Wood got rid of Jeffries' guard." Following Kenny Smith's shout, Lin Sen made an emergency stop and jumped up.

He looked at the basket and threw the ball directly. One second later, the ball passed through the basket steadily.

"A precise pull-up jumper, a 22-point difference, isn't Isiah ready to give up?" Barkley looked at Isiah Thomas on the sidelines, "If you don't give up, you may only gain a bigger point difference."

Isiah Thomas wanted to give up the game, but after thinking about it, he decided to wait, even though he knew that it was impossible to win and catch up to 20 points in just five minutes.

However, back on the offensive end, the Knicks' offense still failed to succeed. Marbury's layup slipped out of the basket due to Milicic's interference, and Eddie Griffin firmly grabbed the defensive rebound.

Lin Sen did not go up to catch the ball, but ran directly to the frontcourt. Jeffries glanced at Lin Sen and immediately followed.

Eddie Griffin handed the ball directly to Chauncey Billups. Billups took the ball and carried it forward.

"Wood did not take the ball but handed it to Chauncey, and he seemed to have no intention of catching the ball." Kenny Smith said of Linson.

At this moment, Lin Sen made a sudden start, directly disrupting the Knicks' already terrible defense.

After entering the rotation, Linsen's defender has changed from Jeffries to Jamal Crawford.

Billups glanced at Lin Sen, who was leaning against Jamal Crawford. However, Lin Sen did not reach out for the ball, but secretly gave a look with his right hand.

With just a hint from his eyes, Billups understood what Lin Sen was thinking.

Jamal Crawford, who was close to Lin Sen, wished he could hang directly on Lin Sen.

"Don't stick to me so tightly. I don't like men. My wife will be angry." Lin Sen said with a smile.

Behind him, Jamal Crawford ignored Lin Sen. He just wanted to guard Lin Sen.

At this moment, Lin Sen's shoulder, which was leaning on him, suddenly swayed to the left, and his right foot stepped hard to the left.

Jamal Crawford immediately moved his steps. However, just as Crawford moved his steps to his right, Linsen quickly retracted his right foot.

Lin Sen leaned directly on Crawford and quickly turned in the opposite direction. Lin Sen turned around very quickly. When Crawford reacted, he accelerated and cut directly in.

"Wood dumped Jamal!" Barkley yelled.

However, Lin Sen shook off Crawford and did not panic the rest of the Knicks, because Lin Sen did not run to the open position immediately but came directly to the inside. In the eyes of most people, Lin Sen was

He planned to pass through from the inside and completely throw away Crawford who was guarding him.

Eddie Curry on the inside moved quickly. All he had to do was block Lin Sen who wanted to pass through the inside.

Buying time for Crawford's defense. Eddie Curry thought well, but the reality was not what he thought.

Just when everyone thought that Lin Sen would throw away everyone through the cover of his teammates inside and run to the other side to get a chance to catch the ball, Billups, who was holding the ball at about 40 degrees on the left side of the three-point line, directly took the ball with both hands.

One push.

"Is this for Dwight?"

Many people think so, because Billups' ball looks like it is for an alley-oop.

In their view, Lin Sen's movement was a cover for Howard, and the ball must have been for Howard.

However, Howard was being blocked by Zach Randolph at the moment, and it was impossible to get the ball immediately.

Crawford, who was chasing after him, was also happy because Lin Sen hadn't completely thrown him away.

Just when everyone thought Billups' alley-oop pass would end in a mistake, Lin Sen actually kicked off the ground.

"Oh my god! Is this ball for Wood?" Kenny Smith said as he looked at the ball that started to fall.

Eddie Curry did not expect that Billups would pass the ball to Lin Sen in front of him. This was undoubtedly a contempt for Eddie Curry.

Eddie Curry raised his right hand to face the jumping Lin Sen and also jumped up. He wanted to push Lin Sen down with the ball.

However, Lin Sen's body grew taller and taller, his chest puffed out and his right hand stretched straight out.

"It's indeed a pass to Wood! How will Wood handle it! Eddie's huge tonnage is in front of him." Barkley looked at Linsen in the air and said.

Lin Sen met the ball passed to him by Billups with his right hand. Lin Sen did not expect Eddie Curry to make up the defense so quickly. Looking at Eddie Curry in front of him, Lin Sen instantly had an idea.

"Get off here!" Eddie Curry roared and slapped Lin Sen hard with his right hand.

Lin Sen did not force the ball, but quickly collected the ball with his right hand. When Eddie Curry slapped him, his whole body suddenly glided in the air.

Eddie Curry's right hand slapped into the air. When everyone marveled at Lin Sen's terrifying ability to stay in the air, Eddie Curry began to fall.

Lin Sen was still in the air, and the left side of his body collided with Eddie Curry. He grabbed the ball with his right hand and smashed the ball towards the basket.

At this moment, it was impossible for Eddie Curry to defend. He could only watch Lin Sen smash the ball over his head towards the basket.

Bang!

Lin Sen grabbed the basket with his right hand, jumped down hard, and put his right hand to his ear.

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

"MVP!"

Uniform MVP shouts filled the audience as Lin Sen enjoyed his moment.

"I really didn't expect that Wood and Chauncey would cooperate like this. This offense was too bold, but the result was good. Wood once again showed his amazing physical fitness. Let's take a look at the data just now." Kenny

.Smith looked at the big screen.

"This goal is enough to lock the top of today's top ten goals. There is also a rumor that Wood will participate in this year's dunk contest. I don't know if this news is true or not. But I think David Stern will definitely welcome Wood to participate in the dunk contest with both hands."

"That's for sure. I've almost fallen asleep watching the slam dunk contests over the years. If Wood participates, I will definitely be 200% energetic." Kenny Smith said with a smile.

The data of Lin Sen's dunk was immediately displayed on the big screen. The bounce height reached 85 centimeters and the airborne time was 0.34 seconds.

Lin Sen's alley-oop also made Isiah Thomas completely resigned to his fate. Lin Sen's condition when he came out in the second half was really good.

This was something he never expected before the game. He thought Lin Sen would continue to be sluggish, but he was overjoyed that Lin Sen didn't play in the first half. He wanted to use this game to defeat the Eastern Conference's No. 1 Magic to redeem his recent bad luck.

.

But Lin Sen's appearance in the second half immediately shattered all his illusions. Lin Sen was still in a slump, he was completely in 100% form, and Isiah Thomas felt like crying.

"Isiah finally called a timeout, and the New York bench stood up. Obviously he was giving up the game." Kenny Smith said, looking at the Knicks bench.

Stan Van Gundy saw Isiah Thomas standing up on the bench and knew that the Knicks were giving up the game, so he also stood up on the bench.

"WOOD! WOOD! WOOD!"

Listening to the cheers from the audience, Lin Sen raised his hands above his head and clapped his hands.

Carolina and Natalie Portman, who were sitting behind the Magic bench, smiled. Lin Sen's poor condition these days also made them very worried.

And Natalie Portman blamed herself even more after the morning's treatment. Now she is relieved to see Lin Sen is in such a good mood.

Carolina seemed to sense Natalie Portman's thoughts, took Natalie Portman's hand and patted it gently.

"Wood is off the field. Wood only started to play in the second half of this game. He only played 15 minutes, but Wood's data is not inferior at all. Let's take a look at Wood's data." Barkley looked at the statistics.

"In 15 minutes of playing time, Wood scored 27 points, and only missed 1 goal in 11 shots. It was a super high offensive efficiency. At the same time, Wood also sent out 8 assists, got 6 rebounds and 4 times.

Steals. This is a pretty good stat even if you play 40 minutes."

"Isiah obviously paid the wrong attention, and Wood's performance tonight also warned other teams that they had better think clearly before defeating the Magic, otherwise they may end up like New York." Kenny Smith

Said with a smile.

In the end, this game that the Knicks boasted would win ended with the Knicks losing by 30 points. Both Isiah Thomas and Jamal Crawford refused to be interviewed by reporters after the game.

"Wood Returns Strongly" - This is the title of the home page of "ESPN". The picture accompanying it is the scene of Lin Sen dunking after a drift in the air. In the picture, Lin Sen's jumping height is compared with Eddie Curry.

Very amazing.

Just when Lin Sen got such comprehensive data in 15 minutes, some people stood up and said that the Knicks were a bad team. The victory over the Knicks was not worth mentioning, and it did not mean that Lin Sen had recovered.

However, Lin Sen did not respond directly, but flew to Indiana with the Orlando Magic team that night.

The Magic will face the Indiana Pacers one day later, but after Pacers leader Jermaine O'Neal failed to leave during the offseason.

After the start of the new season, the state was even worse than last season. Due to injuries, the average data dropped from close to 20 points per game last season to 14 points this season, and it was even worse again in the first game after Christmas.

Injuried.

However, the Pacers' record has not been greatly affected. They are currently tied for eighth in the Eastern Conference with the Atlanta Hawks and are very hopeful of reaching the playoffs this season.

The biggest reason why the Pacers maintain their playoff hopes is Danny Granger and Mike Dunleavy, the son of Clippers coach Dunleavy.

The two averaged 19.6 and 19.3 points per game respectively this season, which is the Pacers' biggest reliance on attacking the city.

Mike Dunleavy, who is 2.06 tall, can play shooting guard and small forward, while Granger, who is 2.03 tall, can play small forward and power forward. Now the two of them occupy two positions of shooting guard and small forward for the Pacers.

The height of the two of them makes it difficult for other teams to defend, which is what Pacers head coach O'Brien hopes.

The existence of Ron Artest and Sean Battier makes the two positions of forward and guard the most fearless for the Magic this season. And this game is another battle to return to his hometown for Artest.

If it hadn't been for his impulsive punching back then, maybe Reggie Miller wouldn't have retired with regrets, and maybe the Pacers would have become the championship that season.

But this is all based on Artest's lack of impulse, but there is no if in the world.

Artest, who has returned to Indiana, has become the focus of reporters, even though his chances of excelling with the Magic this season are far less than those with the Kings last season.

"I don't regret what happened. I know I got love here and I gave it away. I will always remember this place, but I am a professional player and now I am an Orlando player.

I will use all my abilities to defend Danny during the game." Artest said in an interview before the game.

As Artest said before the game, he defended Granger extremely fiercely during the game. Even though the Pacers fans who once loved him booed him, he did not change his defense.

In order to deal with the Pacers' lineup, Stan Van Gundy deliberately changed the starting lineup. Battier appeared in the starting lineup for the first time this season, while Billups sat on the bench.

After the game started, Danny Granger, who had an outstanding performance this season and was expected to compete for the Most Improved Player award, made only 2 of 10 shots in the first half. The game looked particularly embarrassing.

Mike Dunleavy, another reliance on the Pacers' offense this season, also performed poorly. Granger and Dunleavy were taken care of by Artest and Battier in turns during the game.

Artest and Battier are two players with different defensive styles, which makes Granger and Dunleavy very uncomfortable. Often they have just adapted to Artest's defense when Battier comes. And after adapting to Battier

Er's defense, Artest is at it again.

This directly led to Dunleavy and Granger's poor performance in the first half, and the Pacers trailed the visiting Magic by a full 20 points at the end of the first half. In the end, the Pacers lost to the Magic at home by a full 40 points.

A huge difference in points.

At this time, Lindsay Lohan, who had attracted much attention in the past few days, left Orlando and returned to New York. The result was that Lindsay Lohan left New York and flew back to Orlando accompanied by Amanda Seyfried.

Moreover, Amanda Seyfried also stayed at Lin Sen's villa that night, which made the gossip media couldn't help but gossip, but for the Orlando media, they really wanted to see such a thing.

Because this means that Lin Sen's family is stable. If Lin Sen's family has no worries, they can perform even better on the court.

Just as the Orlando media expected, Lin Sen performed well in the next game, leading the Magic to 14 consecutive victories.

Especially on January 13, he completed a quasi-win at the last moment to help the Magic defeat the Washington Wizards and complete their 14th consecutive victory.

However, the next day, January 14, the Magic's 14-game winning streak was ended, and they were defeated by their opponents on their return home at the Waterhouse Center.

And it was not the top eight teams in the Eastern and Western Conferences that ended the Magic's 14-game winning streak, but the Sacramento Kings, who ranked third from last in the Western Conference.

The loss in this game, in addition to the fact that the Magic and the Washington Wizards fought fiercely until the last two minutes in the first game of a back-to-back, caused physical problems in the second half of the game.

Even if Lin Sen scored the highest score of 33 points in the game, he could not help the Magic persist to the end, because Turkoglu and Azubuike performed so well in this game.

Hedo Turkoglu, who returned to the Waterhouse Center for the first time after leaving in the summer, scored his first triple-double of the season.

He scored 26 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists. He was one of the two major contributors to the Kings' victory. The other major contributor was Kellan, who joined the Magic from the NBDL in the middle of last season and quickly became a starter and won the love of Magic fans.

Na Azubuike.

In this game, Azubuike made 6 three-pointers and scored 28 points, second only to Lin Sen's 33 points. It was the outstanding performance of him and Turkoglu that helped the Kings win.

victory.

However, there was no emotion on the team after losing to the Kings. After all, they lost to Turkoglu and Azubuike.

After the game, the Magic team even invited Turkoglu and Azubuike to have a nice gathering.

Lin Sen took leave the next day and did not train. Instead, he accompanied Natalie Portman and Lindsay Lohan to the best hospital in Orlando for a final pregnancy test. Lin Sen was getting closer and closer to becoming a father.
