legendary point guard

It’s the last day for a 9,000-word chapter. Please give me a monthly pass. By the way, I’d like to ask for next month’s monthly pass and first order for the new book!

——

Charles Barkley's roar made Kenny Smith's eardrums hurt, and he couldn't help but cover his ears with his hands.

"Wood made history again, and although we can't look back too far back, this is the fastest triple-double record since 1978 when specific statistics are available.

Wood scored a triple-double in just 17 minutes and 22 seconds in this game. He advanced the record by nearly 8 minutes.

21 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists, this is the data Wood handed over in less than 18 minutes. This is an inhuman data. This is Wood Lin, Super Wood."

"You finally stopped. Congratulations to Wood for setting a new record. In my opinion, anyone in Orlando can leave, but Wood cannot be allowed to leave!"

I don’t know if Dwight is watching this game in front of the TV at the moment. If he sees it, I hope he can seriously consider it. I am not as extreme as Charles, but my views are similar. Unless Dwight seriously improves himself, he will seriously consider it.

He has to enrich his offensive skills, otherwise it would be a good choice for him to be the second-in-command." Kenny Smith added.

Rashad Lewis waved his hand with some annoyance. Just now he was about to get the rebound, but he was picked up by Lin Sen. When he wanted to take off for the second time, Lin Sen was far faster than him and got the rebound.

He took away the rebounds, and he became the direct background for Lin Sen to create records.

Dennis Rodman, who was sitting on the bench, looked at Lin Sen who was dribbling the ball forward and smiled: "Honestly, Wood's rebounding skills are very good. Look at his speed and bounce. If

If I didn't really like my height, he could be the next me."

Pippen didn't expect that his old partner would rate Lin Sen's rebounding so highly. The Rockets were retreating quickly on the court.

The score difference between the two sides is not big, only 7 points, but Adelman is very worried.

Because in the first half, Yao Ming, the inside point that the Rockets relied on, had not been able to play. Instead, he kept running back and forth, and was constantly entangled on both ends of the offense and defense. It had a great impact on physical fitness.

Tracy McGrady felt very good in the first half, scoring 24 points so far, which was the highest score of the two teams in a half. However, such a hot touch in the first half made Adelman worry that it would not be able to continue in the fourth quarter.

"Now there is only 7 points between the two sides, and there are more than two minutes left before the end of the first half.

If the score difference can be brought to double digits in the first half, Orlando will be much easier to play in the second half.

Even if Yao can recover by then, Orlando will still have a buffer." Kenny Smith said while looking at Lin Sen holding the ball on the court.

Linsen passed the ball to Billups. However, Francis, who was guarding him, did not relax his defense and still stood not far from him.

Billups faced Tracy McGrady's defense, and Linsen sprinted to Francis' right side.

Faced with Lin Sen's sudden start, Francis immediately took a step back and tried to block Lin Sen. However, Lin Sen turned around and ran quickly towards the top of the key.

Seeing Lin Sen's running, the Rockets' defense was suddenly affected.

Billups, who was guarded by Tracy McGrady, threw the ball directly to Linsen, but Francis defended quickly. When Linsen received the ball, he stood in front of Linsen.

Francis opened his arms and pressed his body completely against Lin Sen.

Standing on the sidelines, Rick Adelman folded his arms and couldn't help but look at Shane Battier, who was sitting on the bench on the other side of the technical table.

If Sean Battier hadn't been replaced, there would have been a good candidate to defend Lin Sen at this moment.

There is no need for Francis or Tracy McGrady to defend. Although the arrival of Rashard Lewis has increased the Rockets' offense and solved the problem that has plagued the Rockets for many years without a third stable scoring point, it has also lost a certain amount of defense. Especially for individual players.

Defense.

Looking at Ron Artest on the court, Adelman sighed helplessly. If boss Alexander wasn't stingy, there would be no need to send Battier away.

Thinking about the Kings' protected draft pick that the Rockets received from the Magic, Adelman was even more depressed.

Originally, the Rockets paid attention to the fact that the Kings would definitely have a poor record, and there was basically no suspense that this pick would become the Rockets. However, although the Kings are unlikely to enter the playoffs, they are not at the bottom of the playoffs. This makes the Rockets' pick

It's like giving it back to the king.

This is equivalent to giving the Magic Battier almost for free. Although Tony Battier was good as a substitute in the Rockets, he was ignored by Adelman at this moment.

"How great it would be if Dolan was the owner of the Rockets!" Adelman imagined.

On the court, Lin Sen bowed and lowered his body center of gravity. He held the ball at his waist with both hands and performed the most basic triple threat action of a slap. His head was almost leaning against Francis' body.

Lin Sen stared closely at Francis who was defending him, and Francis could feel Lin Sen's momentum.

"It seems that Wood is still planning to choose individual singles this time. Wood has already scored 14 points in this quarter. Can Steve guard Wood?" Kenny Smith said, looking at Lin Sen and Francis who were facing each other at the top of the arc.

.

Not far away from Lin Sen was Tracy McGrady, who was eyeing him. Although he was staring at Billups, he was always ready to defend Lin Sen.

Lin Sen's head was lowered so much that Francis didn't dare lower his body for fear that Lin Sen would catch him and cause a foul.

Bang!

Lin Sen used his right foot as a pivot. While turning around, he hit Francis with the left side of his body.

Francis is very strong, but due to his positioning he is worried about being fouled by Lin Sen and worried about Lin Sen's sudden jump shot, so his steps are not stable.

Therefore, Lin Sen's steps swayed under this moderate impact, and this was the opportunity Lin Sen was waiting for.

He swatted the ball with his right hand, and the ball quickly hit the floor behind him and then bounced to the left.

Francis immediately retreated. After taking a small step, Lin Sen, who he was guarding, twisted to the left.

Lin Sen's action successfully made Francis change his defensive thinking. Lin Sen saw Francis' reaction on the defensive end and swatted the ball with his left hand. The ball was hit behind his back again and bounced to his right hand.

At the same time, Lin Sen's entire body turned to the right. As he took a step with his left foot, the left side of his body hit Francis again.

It was this collision that caused Lin Sen to accelerate again and successfully get rid of Francis.

"Wood broke through successfully!" Charles Barkley shouted.

Just when Barkley shouted, Tracy McGrady on the other side once again threw away Billups: "Steve changes defense!"

Kenny Smith stared closely at Lin Sen, who was dribbling the ball and preparing to rush inside, but Tracy McGrady was rushing towards Lin Sen.

Glancing at Tracy McGrady rushing up from the corner of his eye, and then sizing up the Rockets in the post, Lin Sen quickly made a decision.

Bah!

The legendary second generation and the floor in the center of the water house made a sharp friction sound during the rapid contact, and the sprinting Lin Sen's whole body came to a sudden stop.

He stepped back with his left foot, took the ball with both hands and stepped back, exiting beyond the three-point line.

The upper body swayed and the ball was lifted upwards with both hands.

"Want to shoot?"

Without thinking, McGrady took a step forward, slammed his left foot on the floor, and then threw himself directly towards Lin Sen.

Tracy McGrady, who had an absolute advantage in height and length, formed a giant net in front of Lin Sen. His raised right hand directly hit the ball in Lin Sen's hand.

Although she was friends with Lin Sen, Tracy McGrady saw the hope of giving Lin Sen a hot pot.

"T-Mac completely blocked the shooting angle. Wood's pass is the best choice!" Kenny Smith shouted.

Lin Sen didn't expect Tracy McGrady to pounce so quickly. Just as Kenny Smith said, Lin Sen didn't have any angle when he wanted to shoot.

Just as he was preparing to pass the ball, Lin Sen showed a smile and gave up the idea of ​​passing the ball.

Not only was he not afraid of Tracy McGrady's block, he jumped up to meet it.

"Oh, Wood was not afraid, he chose to make a three-point foul on t-mac, and t-mac was dodging!" Kenny Smith said while looking at the court.

Tracy McGrady wanted to avoid it. Although he didn't hit many four-pointers, he was still considered a master of four-pointers. His four-pointer against the Spurs in 35 seconds and 13 minutes was the most classic moment of his career.

Snapped!

Lin Sen put his arm on Tracy McGrady's arm, and the referee's whistle immediately sounded.

As a result, Tracy McGrady lost his balance and pressed directly towards Lin Sen. Lin Sen almost threw the ball to the basket with his right hand.

As Tracy McGrady pressed forward, Lin Sen couldn't control his strength.

Bang!

Lin Sen and Maddie fell heavily to the floor.

"Wood was completely rushing to draw a foul this time. The height of the ball was too high." Barkley said with a smile.

The ball thrown by Lin Sen was far higher than the height of the basket. However, what was unexpected was that Lin Sen's luck was outrageous.

The ball directly hit the backboard directly above the basket. Because the force was not very strong, the ball bounced directly, but the height of the bounce was not high or far, and the ball almost fell directly.

clang!

The ball hit the front and inside of the basket, bounced up again, and then landed on the basket.

Under the watchful eyes of the entire audience, he rolled on the rim for two full turns before passing through the rim. The referee Bavetta was stunned.

Because he had already made three free throw gestures towards the technical table, after the ball passed through the net, Bavetta blew the whistle and changed the penalty.

The entire water house center was shocked by this super lucky ball. After a brief silence, the water house center was lit up.

The huge cheers made Maddie, who got up from the floor, reveal a wry smile, while Lin Sen had an expression of disbelief on his face.

"Is this okay?" Kenny Smith was speechless as he looked at the ball bouncing on the floor.

"Will this be the luckiest goal of the year? I bet Wood had no idea about scoring four points, but God favored him, and he went from three free throws to four points." Barkley said with a smile.

The Magic bench was already in an uproar. Everyone rushed to the sidelines excitedly, pumping their fists and roaring.

Stan Van Gundy laughed helplessly. He did not expect that the ball would turn into a four-pointer.

It seemed that the two little guys, Amy and Annie, also felt their father's luck. They closed their eyes tightly and grinned at this moment.

Adelman turned around in frustration. The original 7-point difference suddenly reached double digits, and penalties were added.

When Lin Sen stepped to the free throw line, he was greeted by MVP cheers from the entire stadium.

Taking the ball thrown by Bavetta, Lin Sen easily sent the ball into the basket.

Lin Sen's lucky goal just now was still being replayed on the big screen. The reporters in the media area had already thought that this goal was another point that could be highlighted.

"I wonder what Tracy thinks after being hit with four points? In the battlefield he used to play, it is the most normal choice for a player of his type to give the most direct response." Kenny Smith looked at Tracy McGrady walking towards the front court.

said.

Tracy McGrady responded directly, but instead of scoring a goal, he used his own pass.

In the last two minutes of the first half, Tracy McGrady showed his vision and passing skills, sending three assists.

Helped Rashad Lewis hit two three-pointers, and also helped Yao Ming make a successful shot.

It was Tracy McGrady's three assists that helped the Rockets in the first half, and the point difference was only 7 points before the end.

"This was a wonderful first half. Although there were some shortcomings, the duel between the two cores of Wood and Tracy made the entire first half less regrettable."

Charles Barkley looked at the statistics: "Tracy scored 24 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals and 1 block. After playing the entire game, he probably also got a triple-double.

Wood scored 25 points, 11 rebounds, 12 assists, 3 steals and 1 block. Both of them had dominant performances, of course Wood was better."

The performance of Lin Sen and Tracy McGrady in the first half left fans with endless aftertaste, especially the several attacks in which Lin Sen and Tracy McGrady directly faced each other. Although neither side could guard the other, they each showed superb offensive skills.

"Dwight, I have been informed. If you do not obey the team, then they will trade you out in the summer. Several teams have contacted Orlando.

Several teams have also contacted me. I think Los Angeles is a good place, and Anzu Bynum is very attractive to Orlando.

Chicago is also good, but Chicago doesn't have many attractive chips to Orlando. The best remaining option is Dallas, which I think is good.

Dwight, what do you think? I suggest going to Los Angeles, the platform is better, the only difference is..."

"When you get to Los Angeles, you're still going to be the second in command, right? It's not even my turn. There's no Pau Gasol." Dwight Howard looked away from the TV.

"Both Bryant and Paul are not young anymore. You are younger than him, and Los Angeles will increase your commercial value even more. And don't you have confidence in your ability?" Fagan persuaded.

Many teams contacted him, but he didn't consider those small cities at all. He really wanted to go to New York, but New York couldn't offer any valuable bargaining chips.

"Wait a minute, I just want to play ball now!" Howard felt tired as never before, even when he was criticized by the media when he first entered the league, he was not as tired as he is now.

He felt as if he suddenly had no friends and no one cared about him.

He stood up and walked to the window.

He opened the curtains and looked at the roadside. There were still many dazzling banners hanging on the road opposite his house. The one in the center said "Dwight Get Out".

"Maybe compromising is also a good decision." Howard said softly, his tone full of frustration.

"Dwight, are you kidding me, compromising? You are not wrong at all. You have the strength to be the leader of a team.

You should get the corresponding tactical status, but you don't have it now. Your role in the team is not even as good as that of the Serbian. Is this what you want? Your commercial value is declining.

Do you hope to regret it after your short career of more than ten years? Not many teams can accept you, and not many can give Orlando chips.

You are now in the growth period of your career, which is the most critical period for a big player, and you need to be focused on training." Fagan tried his best to persuade.

"Dan, thank you. I want to think about it for myself. I can't leave now anyway. Let's wait until the end of the season."

Seeing that he couldn't persuade Howard, Fagan sighed: "Dwight, think about it carefully, I'm leaving first."

Looking at the eye-catching banners outside the window, there was one banner that made Howard unable to take his eyes away.

"Dwight, where have you been? Come back quickly!"

This banner was almost submerged among those dazzling slogans. Looking at the words on the banner, each letter was printed in his mind.

Time seems to have suddenly returned to when he first entered the league. At that time, the entire Orlando was welcoming him and looking forward to his growth.

He watched his fans grow little by little, and watched himself receive more and more cheers and applause.

He also worked hard to be the leader the team expected. Although he did not do well, Orlando never disliked him, but still encouraged him.

He still remembers the moment when the team chose a big deal to acquire Lin Sen. He was very angry because he knew that Lin Sen's arrival meant that his leadership status was likely to be lost.

When Lin Sen arrived, the team asked him about it and promised him that he would also be the core of the team.

After Lin Sen arrived, it seemed that everything that belonged to him was snatched away overnight. It took him three years of hard work to get everything.

The one with the loudest cheers in the center of the water house was no longer his, but Lin Sen's.

After a few games, his team status completely changed to that of the inside core rather than the core of the team. Lin Sen quickly became the leader of Orlando in the hearts of the management, coaching staff and fans.

Even his teammates quickly accepted Lin Sen and recognized him as a leader. He also chose to accept it all.

The relationship between him and Lin Sen is getting better and better. While he envied Lin Sen's private life off the court, he once took a leave of absence to learn about Lin Sen's skills in pursuing women.

He still remembers the scene when Lin Sen asked him to practice free throws and agreed to teach him the skills only if the free throws reached the standard.

At that time, the team was full of harmony and laughter, and joy was the label of the Orlando Magic.

And he has become easier to play and his statistics are getting better and better, although the number of shots taken has dropped than before.

But the overall efficiency is constantly rising, and his alley-oop cooperation with Lin Sen has turned the Shuiwu center into an alley-oop center.

After the end of the season, he also got 20+10 dominant statistics for the first time. He was successfully selected to the third team of the season.

Although his performance in the playoffs was not as good as in the regular season, he followed the Magic all the way to the finals.

No matter how bad his performance was, the team still gave him absolute encouragement and confidence, and he worked hard towards a better version of himself.

After losing in the finals, he, like the rest of the team, was determined to do better next year.

The major changes in the team during the offseason made him, like the Magic, determined to win the O'Brien Trophy, and since the start of the season, everything has been working towards this goal.

His data was affected by the new players, and his scoring average returned to 17 points per game, but he played more and more easily.

The team moves towards a perfect team. Almost all teams fear them.

The Magic have also become the favorite team to win the championship in everyone's eyes. Although they have experienced some twists and turns at this time, they have not had a big impact at all.

Shaking his head, Howard sighed: "Maybe it's really my fault."

When he returned to the TV, the third quarter of the game between the Magic and Rockets had lasted nearly ten minutes.

The Magic only led the Rockets by 8 points, and Lin Sen was no longer on the court.

"Houston played tenaciously in the third quarter, especially Yao, who was liberated in the third quarter. And this liberation was based on Rick's arrangement." Kenny Smith said while looking at Yao Ming sitting on the bench.

At the beginning of the third quarter, Adelman made a change and replaced Scola, who was the starter, with last season's starting power forward, Hayes, who was only 198cm tall.

In addition to playing defense, Hayes played to help Yao Ming block people. When Yao Ming transitioned from offense to defense, he did not immediately drop to the low post.

Instead, he waits for the ball to reach the three-point line before it is placed. When it is placed, Hayes will entangle Eddie Griffin, so that Yao Ming will face Milicic.

Although Milicic is much taller than Eddie Griffin, he is not as effective at defending Yao Ming as Eddie Griffin. Especially when he chooses to go forward, he is not as good as Eddie Griffin.

Very defensive.

Many times, it became a matter of defending behind Yao Ming. After giving Yao Ming a chance to catch the ball, Yao Ming showed everyone his inside offensive capabilities.

The third quarter lasted nine minutes. Yao Ming scored 14 points alone. Coupled with the good performance of Lewis and Francis, the Rockets just bit the Magic.

"I really didn't expect that Rick found a way to free Yao, but Yao's physical strength was exhausted a lot in the first three quarters.

The fourth quarter will definitely affect Yao's state, and although Wood played seven minutes in this quarter, his role did not consume much physical energy."

Kenny Smith nodded: "But here in Houston, Tracy is about the same. Wood scored 30 points. Tracy also scored 30 points.

The two scored the same points, and both stayed in this quarter to prepare for the fourth quarter. I believe the fourth quarter will be exciting."

At the end of the third quarter, the Orlando Magic, playing at home, led the Houston Rockets by 7 points.

Stan Van Gundy is not satisfied with such a lead. Tomorrow the Magic will face the Washington Wizards back-to-back, and they will fly to Washington for an away game.

His formation today is hoping to win as soon as possible and save energy for tomorrow's game against the Wizards.

But now that the first three quarters have been played, he is not satisfied with this lead.

"When Darko defended Yao, he used up a lot of physical energy. The Pole who was just promoted obviously hasn't fully adapted to the rhythm of the NBA. Even though he worked hard when defending Yao, he was still beaten. In the fourth quarter, Stan will

How to arrange it. I am very curious, otherwise Washington, who will be at home tomorrow, will definitely greet them with a smile." Kenny Smith said.

The game started quickly in the fourth quarter. The main players of both sides basically sat off the court.

However, the Magic's second team, led by Billups and including Grant Hill, Devin Brown, Gortat and Chris Webber, performed better than Houston.

If it weren't for rookie Brooks' unreasonable three-pointer, Adelman would have been on the main lineup long ago.

"It's Aaron Brooks again. I see a trace of Wood in this rookie. He doesn't know what fear is at all. He directly faced Chauncey's defense and made unreasonable three-pointers." Barkley looked at the retreating defender.

Brooks said.

It was Brooks' good performance that Adelman endured until seven minutes left in the fourth quarter before making substitution adjustments. At the same time, Lin Sen also returned to the court.

"T-Mac and Wood returned to the court at the same time, and Houston also replaced Lewis and Rashad. Obviously they wanted to seize the opportunity and narrow the 8-point difference as soon as possible.

On the Orlando side, Wood replaced Chauncey, Sam replaced Devin, Sean replaced Grant, and insider Darko replaced the Polish rookie." Barkley said while looking at the players on both sides.

Brooks had just passed half court when Tracy McGrady signaled him to pass the ball.

Although he felt good in these few minutes, Tracy McGrady asked him to pass the ball.

Tracy McGrady stood at the three-point line with the ball. Battier immediately stepped forward to meet him.

Tracy McGrady's touch was outstanding in this game, and Sean Battier, who has been a teammate with Tracy McGrady, knows even more how difficult Tracy McGrady is.

Especially when Tracy McGrady's touch comes, he once joked that when Tracy McGrady's touch comes, all the defender can do is pray to God for help.

Facing his teammate Battier from last season, Tracy McGrady naturally knows Battier's defensive ability.

Like Adelman, he doesn't want Battier to leave the team, but he can't control the boss's stingy ideas.

Continuous cross-steps tested Battier's defense, and Battier's hand was always stretched out in front of Tracy McGrady's eyes.

Lin Sen, who was standing on the right side of the arc, looked at Tracy McGrady from a distance, and Tracy McGrady's rhythm changed.

Suddenly the pace slowed down. Then it suddenly sped up.

After two rhythms, one slow and one fast, Tracy McGrady shook his upper body and then leaned on Battier to cut inside.

Lin Sen wanted to rush forward to make up the defense. But the distance was too far and he could only wait for others to make up the defense.

"Tracy shook off Sean's defense and rushed directly to the inside." Kenny Smith shouted loudly.

Milicic looked at McGrady rushing in as if he was facing a formidable enemy, while Chris Webber on the side also consciously shrank to the left side of the basket.

Tracy McGrady seemed to have no fear. He kicked off with his left foot in front of Milicic, took the ball with both hands and hit the basket.

"Tracy, dunk on Darko?" Charles Barkley said, looking at Tracy McGrady in the air.

Milicic naturally does not want to be dunked by Tracy McGrady, although he has seen many scenes of Tracy McGrady dunking on his opponent.

He raised his right hand high and jumped up to face Tracy McGrady.

Just when the two were about to collide, Tracy McGrady handed the ball to his left hand and took it away with his right hand.

The dunk turned into a challenge so quickly that Milicic was unable to defend.

"The dunk turned into a challenge. Tracy's goal was so beautiful. I don't know what words to use to describe such a goal!" Kenny Smith said while watching the replay on the big screen.

The ball went smoothly into the basket. The fans in the Water House Center did not boo but watched Tracy McGrady run to the backcourt.

"This is Tracy. If we go back to him in Orlando, Darko may have faced a humiliating two-handed dunk this time. Tracy used his performance to recover two precious points for Houston as soon as he came on the court."

Lin Sen looked at Tracy McGrady's back and walked towards the baseline: "Darko, ball!"

After receiving the ball, everyone was expecting Lin Sen to give Tracy McGrady a counterattack.

Milicic was pulled out from the inside. Linsen used the cover to rush inside. Tony Barty, who was guarding Milicic, immediately dropped Milicic to cover Linsen.

"Wood challenges Tony, which is not difficult for Wood at all." Barkley looked at Linsen, who was leaning on Tony Barty and cutting inside.

Milicic, who was covering for Lin Sen, also came down from the left corner. Just when Lin Sen came to the basket and Tony Barty was about to block Lin Sen, Lin Sen's right wrist changed.

The ball hit the ground and bounced right through Lin Sen's crotch.

No one realized that Lin Sen would suddenly pass the ball, and it would be such a pass. When Tony Barty was looking for the ball, Milicic received the ball and immediately made a two-handed dunk.

"Wood, thank you!" Milicic and Linsen high-fived and celebrated under the basket, and the big screen also replayed the cooperation between Linsen and Milicic.

"Wood's passing was so imaginative. He passed the ball directly without looking behind him. This completely shows that Wood and Darko have a tacit understanding." Kenny Smith said with a smile.

"Dwight and Wood have had this kind of cooperation several times." Barkley added.

Howard heard Barkley's voice in front of the TV, and his thoughts suddenly drifted to the court. The cooperation with Linson Milicic replayed in his mind.

Just then, Howard's cell phone rang.

Howard picked up the phone and Otis Smith's number was displayed on the screen.

His heartbeat suddenly accelerated rapidly, and he even became a little scared.

He was worried that he would be traded away. He kept thinking about the phone call, but Howard didn't have the courage to press the answer button.

When the phone stopped ringing, Howard breathed a sigh of relief, like a child feeling that the crisis was over.

However, the phone rang again, and Otis Smith's name was still on the screen.

He pressed the answer button anxiously. There were still six minutes until the end of the game at the Water House Center not far from his home.

The Magic still lead the Rockets with an 8-point lead.

Lin Sen made a gesture to his teammates, and the Magic players immediately understood what Lin Sen was thinking.

Billups knew that Linson's gesture meant that he was about to shoot a three-pointer, and what others had to do was to see whether his gesture was for a screen.

Opening his arms, Francis pressed close to him, not daring to relax at all.

Under Francis' defense, Linsen's dribbling rhythm became faster and faster.

The ball hit the ground again and again. Milicic inside was blocked by Tony Barty.

Shane Battier ran towards Lin Sen, and Lin Sen also saw Battier running towards him from the corner of his eye.

At the same time as Battier ran, he turned ninety degrees and ran towards Battier's side. At the same time as Battier ran, Tracy McGrady also started running.

However, Webb also pulled out inside. Battier's running provided Linsen with a screen to get rid of Francis, while Webber's screen helped Linsen get rid of Tracy McGrady's defense.

Lin Sen didn't even think about it, he just pulled it up near 45 degrees on the left side and threw.

The ball quickly drew an arc in the air and went straight to the basket.

"Wood directly hit a three-pointer, and Orlando reopened the point difference to 11 points."

In transition between offense and defense, Francis controls the ball.

He felt good and wanted to play singles on his own. Under Lin Sen's defense, Francis used his strong body to resist Lin Sen.

Scola pulled out from inside, and Lin Sen took a look at Scola and simply took a step away.

Francis used Scola's screen to cut inside, and at the same time as Francis accelerated, Lin Sen, who got out of the way, just stepped back and avoided Scola's screen.

Francis had no idea that Lin Sen would defend like this. When he accelerated, Lin Sen's left hand stretched out from his side like a ghost.

Snapped!

After Lin Sen's left hand made contact with the ball, Lin Sen ran directly forward.

Milicic immediately grabbed the ball knocked down by Lin Sen and threw a long pass to the frontcourt.

"Wood, Wood made a signature steal. Steve lost the ball. This was Wood's opportunity for a fast break! 1 versus 0, extremely easy." Barkley shouted.

The Rockets also gave up the pursuit, but Lin Sen did not choose to attack the basket at all, but stopped outside the three-point line.

Looking at the basket, Lin Sen shot the ball directly.

"Oh, Wood chose to chase for a three-pointer, and no one from Houston came up to defend him. This gave Wood an absolute chance. He was as easy as doing shooting practice." Kenny Smith said while looking at the court.

Brooks saw Linsen stopped outside the three-point line and started running quickly again.

But Lin Sen didn't give him a chance, and the three-pointer he shot went steadily into the basket.

"The second consecutive three-pointer, the second three-pointer, the score difference suddenly reached 14 points, and Houston's predicament became greater."

After leaving Howard's house, Dan Fagan did not go back to the hotel obediently. Instead, he called a reporter friend he was familiar with.

"To let the wind out, let's say that insiders revealed that the Los Angeles Lakers will trade Anzu for Dwight, and also revealed that Dwight will definitely leave the team in the summer."

At this time, Howard also hung up the phone and walked to the window again. His eyes were fixed on the banner across the road.
