legendary point guard

"But they refused!"

"This alliance is a business alliance, and no one will refuse benefits." Nelson's answer still made Mullin a little confused. Nelson smiled and turned off the TV.

The camera pans back to Houston and the game continues.

Mike James may have played extra hard because he faced his old club and the Rockets also offered him a contract during the offseason.

Devin Casey was very satisfied when he saw Mike James on the court. At least the team's second team would not be too far behind because of Mike James tonight.

Bonzi Wells, the Rockets' important hope, is in very average condition. Although the Timberwolves' defense can't guard him, his touch is terrible.

When the game reached the fifth minute of the second quarter, Devin Casey replaced Linson and Garnett on the court, and the Rockets also replaced Tracy McGrady and Yao Ming.

Hassel carefully stared at Maddie in front of him.

Tracy McGrady's sleepy eyes remained the same as he grabbed the ball with one hand in his right hand and cheers rang out from the Toyota Center behind him.

Not far away, Lin Sen also had to admit that almost everyone in the NBA can catch the ball with one hand, but only Tracy McGrady's one-handed catch can make everyone like it.

Indescribably chic and handsome, just when Lin Sen was about to double-team him for defense, Tracy McGrady tentatively tapped forward with his right foot.

Hassell remained unmoved, waiting for McGrady's real offensive move.

But soon Hassel discovered that McGrady was leaning on him and took the first step. By the time Hassel reacted, McGrady had already jumped out.

Lin Sen immediately dropped Hyde and rushed forward to try to defend, but Tracy McGrady's first step was too fast.

The next second, Tracy McGrady immediately stopped and jumped to send the ball out.

Whoosh!

A crisp sound of wiping the net was heard immediately.

Lin Sen knows that his first step is also fast, but his speed relies more on his own speed. Tracy McGrady is not as fast as him, but his stride is long enough. Combined with his speed, he is in the first place.

If you step past it, it's basically impossible to pursue and defend.

"Tracy McGrady felt really good today, making an easy pull-up jump shot. The Timberwolves really have no one. Hassell's height is a flaw, not to mention that once a player of Tracy McGrady's level comes in, even the top defensive players will not be in good shape.

Envoy." Zhang Weiping said with a smile.

Yu Jia on the side nodded: "Coach Zhang is right. Once a player like Tracy McGrady is in good condition, no one can use him. If the Timberwolves want to delay the game, they must first strengthen their offense. Now that Battier is not on the court, Lin Sen's performance

Maybe it will be better."

Battier is still on the bench. This is an opportunity for Lin Sen, but Lin Sen is still a little disappointed. He is looking forward to the match with Battier, even though it looks more like asking for abuse.

He looked at Hyde in front of him. He and Hyde had never fought against each other in college, but they had also heard of the names of the Three Musketeers of the University of Illinois.

"Rookie, with your level you can actually be named last year's No. 1 defender. After we leave, will there be no one in the NCAA?" Luther Hyde said jokingly.

"Maybe you can, too." Lin Sen's words made Hyde a little surprised. He thought Lin Sen had given in.

"While dreaming!"

Lin Sen's next words made Hyde understand that this rookie was by no means a good guy: "Rookie, don't think you can be arrogant with that guy Chris protecting you." As he spoke, he stepped forward and hit Lin Sen with his body.

By pulling the ball away, Hyde's impact was resolved.

"You don't have Fatty De to take care of you now!" Lin Sen inadvertently distanced himself a little.

"Of course you can seek help from TMAC or Yao. Immature people should get help from adults. They may be able to help you."

As soon as Lin Sen finished speaking, he swatted the ball fiercely and rushed towards Hyde's right side with a bow.

Hyde immediately subconsciously moved his feet to defend.

However, Lin Sen pulled the ball and took a step back to outside the three-point line. When Hyde tried to pounce back, Lin Sen had already jumped in front of him.

Glancing at Hyde, Lin Sen looked at the basket and pushed the ball out.

After the ball drew an arc in the air, it steadily entered the basket.

"You are my lucky star, but Jeff will not let you continue to be my lucky star." After Lin Sen said this, he turned around and ran to the backcourt. Just as Lin Sen said, Van Gundy waved at McGrady, and McGrady nodded quickly.

Run towards the front court.

"Hyde is about the same height as Lin Sen, a little shorter, but his defense is far inferior to Battier. As I just said, without Battier, the Rockets will have to work harder to defend Lin Sen." Yu

Jia Ru said.

Lin Sen didn't expect McGrady to come directly to his side after halftime, even though McGrady's strength is far beyond his current ability.

But when he saw Tracy McGrady proactively approaching him, Lin Sen's unwillingness to admit defeat grew and he rejected Hassell's idea of ​​coming up to defend. Lin Sen wanted to do it himself.

"Tracy McGrady wanted to attack Lin Sen, and Lin Sen accepted it. This is not an easy task. Considering the two heights, Tracy McGrady's shooting will be easier, and Lin Sen's defense is also very average." Zhang Weiping was a little confused about Lin Sen's plan.

Hyde, who had passed the half court with the ball, originally thought about hitting back Lin Sen, but when he saw Tracy McGrady touching Lin Sen, he knew that his idea of ​​hitting back was shattered, and he immediately passed the ball.

Tracy McGrady leaned sideways against Lin Sen and caught the ball with his right hand.

Holding the ball behind his back with his right hand, Lin Sen no longer had the intention to appreciate Tracy McGrady holding the ball with one hand. He opened his arms and held out his chest to press Tracy McGrady.

Bang!

Tracy McGrady hit the left side of his body and then started dribbling.

Lin Sen took a small step back under Tracy McGrady's impact, but quickly pushed forward again.

Tracy McGrady hit again, and Lin Sen, who was well prepared, pushed back. Just when Lin Sen was secretly glad that he had resisted, all the pressure on his chest suddenly disappeared.

"damn it!"

Tracy McGrady stepped back and jumped up in front of him.

As a player, he naturally likes to watch various players' offensive highlights, and he knows Tracy McGrady's pull-up jump shot very well.

With his feet on the ground, Lin Sen immediately jumped up and stretched his arms as much as possible to interfere with Tracy McGrady's shot.

But after a beat, Lin Sen's palm was still stretched out in front of Tracy McGrady's eyes, and Tracy McGrady had already thrown the ball.

Lin Sen watched helplessly as the basketball flew over his head, and could only hope that Tracy McGrady's touch would not be good this time.

"Whoosh!"

There was a clear sound of cleaning the net, and Lin Sen smiled helplessly.

Tracy McGrady in front of him ran directly to the backcourt amidst the cheers of Toyota Center without any celebration.

"Lin Sen defended the pull-up jumper very hard, but he still lacks height and experience, and it's not easy for a player of Tracy McGrady's level to defend him," Yu Jia said with a smile.

Lin Sen took Griffin's serve and immediately pushed forward.

Just after he passed the center circle, he found that the person waiting for him standing one step inside the three-point line was not Hyde but Tracy McGrady, who had just shot him in the face.

Tracy McGrady was a top defensive player during the Raptors era, but during the Magic era, Tracy McGrady had to take care of both offense and defense, and his defensive skills gradually declined, but defense still cannot be underestimated.

Lin Sen slowly approached with the ball. Tracy McGrady's anxious eyes seemed to open a little but quickly returned to normal.
