legendary point guard

Relying on Kobe's outstanding performance, the Lakers took an 8-point lead at the end of the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Lin Sen played more of a pure organizer role on the offensive end. Although he plays as a point guard, Lin Sen likes to use his own offense to drive the team's offense and likes to play as he pleases.

.

"Unconsciously, the first half of the game is about to end. Bryant has already scored 25 points at the end of the first half. Tonight is likely to be another 40+ night." Hoffman looked at the big screen at the scene.

Statistics say.

Bill Walton looked at Linsen who took the ball: "Wood's statistics are actually pretty good. He made 4 out of 9 shots, scored 10 points with free throws, and had 7 assists."

After a pause, Bill Walton continued: "Tonight is another double-double night for Wood, but his performance on the court is indeed a bit bad, especially compared with his first four games. Of course I think

This is also because we have higher requirements.”

Hoffman smiled and nodded: "Bill, you are right. We can't ask too much from a rookie. Wood has done this well. You must know that this is only the fifth game of his career and he is still young.

A lot of players at his age are still struggling for opportunities to play."

Lin Sen dribbled the ball through halftime, not rushing to advance to the three-point line, but wasting time. At this time, there were 22 seconds left before the end of the first half, leaving the Timberwolves with 17 seconds to attack.

Kobe did not directly go up to guard Lin Sen, but stopped at the three-point line. This distance allowed him to guard Lin Sen calmly.

The twenty-four-second attack time slowly went to 12 seconds, and Lin Sen still showed no sign of starting.

Kobe's eyes narrowed, and he was considering whether to go up and force him.

At this time, Lin Sen, who was parked outside the center circle, moved.

Lin Sen was like a supercar, reaching the highest speed in an instant.

Kobe moved quickly laterally and opened his arms as he had done in the first half.

In the first half, Lin Sen suffered enough from Kobe's defense and relied more on the cover of his teammates to get away from Kobe. Although Lin Sen has not challenged Kobe's defense alone in the first half.

But he had been thinking about how he could effectively break through Kobe's defense. It was only now that Lin Sen wanted to give it a try.

When Lin Sen and Kobe Bryant were about the same height, Lin Sen pulled the ball with his right hand and changed its direction.

However, Kobe remained unmoved and continued his defensive posture.

A second change of direction followed, and this time Lin Sen accelerated directly after the change of direction, cutting to the other side of Kobe.

When Lin Sen waited for Kobe to make the next defensive move in an instant, the ball passed through his back and came to his right hand.

At the same time, the whole person changed the direction of the breakthrough, leaning on Kobe and cutting in.

Lin Sen had full confidence in his first step. After getting rid of Kobe, Lin Sen directly cut to the inside.

Kwame Brown looked at Lin Sen who rushed in and immediately moved his steps to prepare for defense.

Facing Kwame Brown's defense, Lin Sen showed no fear at all and jumped up to face Kwame Brown's defense.

Looking at Kwame Brown's big hand, Lin Sen collected the ball in the air, his whole body drifted in the air, and after missing Kwame Brown, he smashed the ball into the basket with one hand.

After passing the basket, Lin Sen jumped to the floor. Without any celebration, he glanced at Kobe and then turned and ran to the backcourt.

"I really didn't expect that Wood actually successfully broke through Bryant's defense at the end of the first half, and also performed a wonderful one-handed dodge and then gliding dunk under Kwame's defense." Hoff.

Man looked at the playback on the big screen and admired it.

"This ball is really beautiful. Bryant seemed to want to finish the last 7 seconds by himself. Phil asked for a short timeout. He must have wanted to take advantage of the last 7 seconds of attack time in the first half. Although 7 seconds

It’s not much time, but it’s enough time for the Lakers to launch an offense in the half. Minnesota is still 11 points behind the Lakers. If they want to remain competitive in the second half, they must work hard on defense this time.” Bill Walton added.

.

After the timeout, Kwame Brown stood on the sideline and prepared to serve. Lin Sen was close to Kobe, but he still couldn't prevent Kobe from catching the ball.

After Kobe used Luke Walton's screen, he threw away Linson and received Kwame Brown's pass.

When Kobe received the ball, Lin Sen had already reattached it.

The two men were entangled one step inside the three-point line.

Kobe leaned directly on Lin Sen with his back, and time jumped quickly.

Lin Sen gritted his teeth and held up Kobe's back with his chest raised, but Lin Sen couldn't help but take a step back under Kobe's continuous impact.

"Try harder!" Lin Sen shouted in his heart.

However, Kobe did not give Linsen a chance. Less than two seconds before the end of the first half, Kobe hit him again.

Lin Sen wanted to stand firm, but still couldn't. Kobe seized this opportunity and jumped up.

Whoosh!

Under Lin Sen's watchful eye, the basketball got into the basket as the whistle sounded at the end of the first half.

"You can't guard me!" Kobe glanced at Lin Sen and turned to walk to the sideline.

Lin Sen clenched his fists, knowing that Kobe was telling the truth. Looking at Kobe's back as he walked to the sidelines, and listening to the fans cheering for Kobe alone, Lin Sen yelled in his heart: "One day I will

I will guard you!"

This game against the Lakers and the last game against the Wizards are of great significance to Lin Sen's entire career.

It was these two games that Lin Sen gradually changed his original thinking and had a clear goal - to become stronger!

"Wood worked hard, but the result was still a bit bad. Bryant felt really good tonight. He scored 27 points in the first half. Maybe Bryant will score 50+ points tonight." Hoffman

Said with a smile.

After the first half, the Los Angeles Lakers, playing at home, led the Minnesota Timberwolves by 13 points.

The twenty-point intermission passed quickly, and both sides maintained their starting lineups in the second half.

However, Kobe's touch was still hot, even though on the defensive end Linsen turned the defense over to Hassell again.

But the effect was still not good, and Hassell also became a victim of Kobe.

In the second half, Lin Sen also found some methods on the offensive end, and the cooperation with Garnett became more and more tacit.

Although the Timberwolves failed to close the trailing score, they kept the point difference between eight and twelve points, always putting pressure on the Lakers, which made Phil Jackson dare not change the lineup at will for a while.

However, when the game reached the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, the impact of the back-to-back was also highlighted.

The pace of the Timberwolves players was obviously slow, and Lin Sen also made two direct passing errors.

The reason for the mistake was not only the lack of passing feeling due to fatigue, but also the slowing down of the teammates receiving the ball due to physical exhaustion.

This directly caused the score difference that was originally eight points to become fourteen points again in a short period of time.

"There is basically no suspense about the outcome of the game. Bryant will lead the Lakers to defeat the Timberwolves." Hoffman glanced at the big screen and said.

Lin Sen held his knees with both hands and gasped for air. Starting from the fifth minute of the fourth quarter, his legs felt as if lead had been slowly injected into them.

Looking up at the big screen, Lin Sen's eyes were full of reluctance, but his reluctance still failed to help the Timberwolves perform a miracle.

For the first time, Lin Sen realized that he was still far, far away from those superstars.

In the end, the Minnesota Timberwolves' four-game winning streak since the start of the new season was ended at Staples Center.
