My basketball vision is different

Chapter 222: 10 steals in the first quarter!

The second game of the semifinals between the Pacers and the Bulls was about to take place at Conseco Arena. Before the game started, Zhang Weiping was sitting in the Yangma studio and received the roster with a smile on his face.

"Thibodeau is still an honest man. The Bulls' starting lineup is the same as the last game. The coach did not set up any surprises for the opponent. It is still Robinson, Belinelli, Butler, Boozer, and Noah."

Yang Yi, who was beside him, nodded and said: "The Bulls have no one available, and they can only start with these people, but it is difficult to defeat the Pacers with them!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Weiping took the words and said.

"For the Pacers, I don't know if it's because of David West's injury. He appeared on the substitute list in this game, and Hansbrough started in his place. This is also the case this season. Hansbrough is on the bench.

Started for the first time in the playoffs.

The young man must seize the opportunity and strive to achieve results. As for the other four, they are still the familiar Coach Lin and Paul George..."

"Actually, from my personal point of view, Lance Stephenson's defense against Nate Robinson was very good in the last game. Stephenson can be completely arranged to start in this game. George Hill's defense against a player like this is still a bit difficult.

It’s strenuous.”

Hearing what Yang Yi said, Zhang Weiping also nodded in agreement.

"I think head coach Frank should have other considerations. After all, although George Hill's defense is a bit worse, his offense is indeed much better than Stephenson's...

Okay, the players are ready to play, let's turn our attention to the scene."

After the warm-up, Lin Shaojie and his teammates gathered together. The boss always had to say something, otherwise the ceremony would be too monotonous.

"This is our home court. Please play this game as your last game and don't leave any regrets for yourself."

As soon as Lin Shaojie finished speaking, his teammates responded one after another!

Feeling the high emotions in his teammates' hearts, Lin Shaojie nodded with satisfaction, especially Hansbrough, whose face turned red with excitement.

"Don't get excited, try to slow down, they are no match for us."

"Um!"

Regarding Lin Shaojie's suggestion, Hansbrough nodded and said.

Lin Shaojie was most concerned about Hibbert. He walked over and hugged Hibbert's big head and whispered.

"Roy, I need you to release the ball as quickly as possible, especially under the basket. If you can dunk the basketball directly in your hand, if you can't dunk, even a half-shot or a hook shot will do. Don't habitually catch the ball and pat it again.

Take action, do you understand?"

Hibbert nodded: "Don't worry Lynn, I know, I just take action directly, right?"

"Yes, of all the Bulls players, no one can guard you. Even if Noah is hanging on you, you can dunk. You are our inside killer, you know?"

Lin Shaojie patted Hibbert's big butt and said: "Come on, our big guy!"

Hibbert heard this and ran towards the court in a hurry.

"It looks like Coach Lin is giving lectures to his teammates one by one."

Zhang Weiping said happily.

"Since entering the playoffs, Coach Lin has become both a father and a mother. He can still have time to paddle during the regular season. In the playoffs, not only has his playing time increased, but he has also interacted with his teammates more. On the court

His shadow is everywhere inside and outside. Sometimes it feels like he is busier than the coach. This money! I'm afraid it will become increasingly difficult to earn."

Zhang Weiping's words made many fans in front of the TV say "Bah!"

"You bad old man is so bad that I believed your lies!"

Lin Shaojie's salary is not high in the entire NBA, but in the Pacers, he is already at the top of the first-line salary. This is only his rookie season, and besides salary, how little big contract does Lin have?

How did Mr. "Fifty Million Dollars" get his name? Have you forgotten, Mr. Zhang?

In the interview before Xinlang, Director Lin was negotiating a lot of big contracts, and the money was never less!

Anyway, the fans were disdainful of this, but what Lao Zhang said is true. Lin Shaojie will be "busier" in the playoffs.

The "commander" on the court is also the leader of the locker room. Of course, it is impossible to do nothing. If you want to maintain the relationship between teammates just by treating them to dinner, it will not last long. At best, they will be just bad friends, and no one will.

Help you take it seriously.

In the final analysis, it all depends on strength. If you have the ability, you have the right!

At the scene, with the referee's whistle, the game officially started.

Hibbert rarely defeated his opponent in the jump ball session. Nate Robinson once again wanted to steal the ball from Lin Shaojie's hands, but the basketball fell into Lin Shaojie's hands and seemed to be stuck to his palm.

Lin Shaojie just dribbled the ball behind his back to avoid the rushing Robinson, and made the opponent pay the price for his impulsiveness.

Robinson, who was out of position, could not stop the advancing Lin Shaojie. Belinelli quickly retreated, and the Pacers all charged crazily, rushing towards the Bulls' "dam!" like a flood!

Paul George ran to the wing, and Lin Shaojie, who was dribbling quickly across half court, was about to pass the ball to him. Butler quickly followed the target, and Boozer also turned his attention.

As the second eldest son of the Pacers, Paul George is indeed different from Lin Shaojie in the eyes of the media, but just like Pippen next to Jordan, he is also very powerful. As the opponent, the Bulls know very well whether Paul George has killed him or not.

force.

But Lin Shaojie's quick ball flew towards Roy Hibbert. Noah, who was on the inside, repeatedly told himself to be careful of Lin Shaojie's no-look passes, but every time he encountered this kind of thing, he always let

He was extremely grateful.

"That boy's actions are too deceptive!"

The basketball that felt like it should have fallen into the hands of Paul George finally fell into the hands of Hibbert, who turned around and dunked. Hibbert completely squeezed Noah away, helping the Pacers score the first two points.

At that time, Hansbrough blocked Boozer immediately, and by the time the latter reacted, it was too late.

I could only watch helplessly as Hibbert grabbed the position and completed the shot.

"The Pacers have something inside!"

Compared with the previous game, Hibbert's lethality at this time is undoubtedly much greater!

Seeing Lin Shaojie's thumb pointing towards him, Hibbert smiled like a fool from a landlord's family.

"happy!"

When it was the Bulls' turn to attack, Nate Robinson held the ball from the backcourt and advanced quickly. His body shape was exactly like a short version of "Bombman," and George Hill could only barely keep up.

As the player who scored the highest score against the Pacers in the last game, the Pacers did not go too easy on him this time.

Of course, George Hill's restrictions on Robinson were indeed a bit small. Although there was a difference in height between the two, in terms of weight and strength, it was George Hill who really suffered.

Fortunately, Lin Shaojie's defense was timely. When Robinson, who had squeezed out George Hill after halftime, wanted to break through again, he was stopped by Lin Shaojie who came over.

"Nate, are you sure you want to do it yourself?"

Lin Shaojie deliberately started the fire, and Robinson was not stupid. Stephenson guarded him tightly in the last game. The "big devil" in front of him was even more difficult to resist than Stephenson. He had met Robinson several times in the regular season.

Of course I don't want to provoke my opponent.

But with no room to break through, he found after stopping the ball that he didn't even have a chance to pass the ball.

Not only was Paul George's defense very good, but Hansbrough, who rarely started the game, even went around to defend and blocked Boozer. The Pacers' players kept everyone in the Bulls very close, and there was not much left for Robinson.

His "vision" seems to be that he can't see his own players, so he relies entirely on his feelings.

The defensive area of ​​No. 13 on the opposite side is too large, and his body and arms are his powerful weapons.

Just when Robinson was about to look for an opportunity to pass the ball again, Lin Shaojie suddenly started to cut the ball.

"Bang!"

Robinson felt a light touch in his hand and secretly said.

"It's over!"

The No. 13 guarding him sank, and ran away from him, running towards the landing point of the basketball. Robinson, who wanted to turn around, had no time at all, so he could only subconsciously try to foul and grab the opponent's jersey.

But it's a pity that Lin Shaojie took the first step and accelerated instantly. Although Robinson's "short hands" were powerful, they didn't have time. He grabbed the air and could only watch the opponent running quickly.

Lin Shaojie completely left the remaining nine players behind him. Just one second after halftime, he completed the action of taking off and shooting in front of the three-point line.

"So fast!"

Yang Yi shouted subconsciously. From the completion of the steal to the three-point jump shot, it felt like it took more than two seconds. When a "swish" sound came from his ears, the Pacers had already completed the counterattack and scored in just a few seconds.

!

The Bulls had to serve again.

"My reasons!"

Nate Robinson admitted.

Listening to the applause that keeps ringing in my ears, and the shouts of "mvp" from time to time, now this title of most valuable player is well-deserved and is no longer illusory.

Regardless of whether he was elected unanimously or not, Lin Shaojie, who accounted for the vast majority of the points, in the minds of most NBA players, there is no problem with his "cup", and his strength is there!

Robinson warned other players on the court that his next shot might be more subtle and sudden because he was worried that Lin Shaojie would target him again.

As for double-teaming?

The game has only started not long ago, and the Pacers' No. 13 has not yet shown a strong desire to attack, so he can take it easy for the time being.

But Robinson himself never thought that as he was being targeted by Lin Shaojie, as long as he moved slower, he would be intercepted by his opponent.

Nate Robinson was worried that he was about to be intercepted. As soon as he saw Lin Shaojie coming to block him and pass the ball, he was afraid that he would make a mistake.

In just a short time, he made three mistakes and his opponent got three steals from him!

The Pacers, without David West, rarely focused on the inside in subsequent offenses. Lin Shaojie's deterrent power on the outside kept Bulls players in the wandering stage when dealing with him.

"Double-team for a while, defend alone for a while."

In this case, the Bulls felt like they were playing in a chaotic manner, while the Pacers' offense was very orderly.

Paul George restrains his opponents on the wing, and the Pacers, who actually focus on the inside, will always give the ball to Hibbert at the first opportunity. His height, wingspan, strength, etc., all have certain advantages.

Lin Shaojie got a lot of assists from Hibbert.

When Noah and Boozer were in zone defense against Hibbert, Lin Shaojie had to either do it himself or give the ball to Paul George.

For a moment, the members of the coaching staff seemed to see the "triangle offense," or a scene from the "Princeton System."

The combination of Lin Shaojie and Paul George is very similar to Jordan and Pippen, but in fact it is not;

The Pacers don't have Peja Stokovich, nor do they have Chris Webber. But Lin Shaojie, as a big point guard who can shoot three-pointers, pass the ball, and contain, seems to have been given many roles as a player.

.

Hibbert's destructive power in the paint and Paul George's constant attacks in the paint are adding fuel to the fire of this incomplete Bulls.

If the burning continues like this, the bull may not be able to hold on.

By the time the two sides planned to rotate, the Pacers, who were playing at home, had already gained a 14-point lead. With a score of 27 to 13, the Bulls felt that it was too difficult!

Nate Robinson, who played well in the last game, only scored one point by making one of two free throws and also had an assist.

George Hill's restrictions on him are still limited, but he can't prevent Lin Shaojie from making up defense at any time.

The Bulls, who already lacked defenders, played in a mess.

"Daiqin (Cook), you go up first!"

Every time Thibodeau sees the Pacers' No. 13 relying on his tall body to crush Robinson, he feels heartache. Looking at the substitutes, this guy started with the Heat, then wandered to the Thunder, and then

To the Rockets, then to the Bulls' bench.

At the very least, his height and strength are quite bluffing, and with his status as a defender, he would be a good choice if he could really score some points.

Otherwise, Belinelli alone will not work!

"Marcus (Dige), you go up and try too!"

Thibodeau's words made the latter excited. As the 29th overall pick in this year's first round, Marquez is a serious local player from Indianapolis.

After he graduated from the University of Kentucky, people only remember Anthony Davis and Gilchrist, whose shooting posture was extremely ugly. As for Marquis Deagle, the young star of that year, not many people really remember him.

indivual.

In the previous game against the Pacers, Marquez wanted to play so much and stage a "Return of the King" drama in front of his hometown people, but what about the reality?

Of the nearly 20,000 spectators who came to the scene, almost no one knew him. There were new people and old ones were forgotten.

When there was only time left in the first quarter, the Bulls' two guards were replaced. The two ambitious people tried to prove themselves with excitement and some uneasiness.

The Pacers' rotation did not have four up and four down like the previous round. Hibbert and George Hill came off the court, and Mahinmi and Lance Stephenson came on.

"Oh, this lineup of the Pacers is actually quite interesting. In my opinion, it even feels a bit disjointed. Mahinmi and Hansbrough are both moving a bit slowly, but Coach Lin and Stephenson, plus

Paul and George are both fast horses.

If the bull is seized by these three fast horses, with the impact of these three people, the bull may be in danger.

By the way, who are this Dai Quin and Marcus? Do you have any information about them? I’m not familiar with these two people!”

Zhang Weiping, who rarely makes jokes, made the audience laugh.

Every step and every opponent of the Pacers in the playoffs has been analyzed by fans, especially Marquis Digg. As a rookie in the 2012 class, although he was a first-round pick, he hardly played in the Bulls.

opportunities, so the data are very bleak.

After playing, everyone can find that the two defenders are both "robust" in shape, at least a little bit bigger compared to Lin Shaojie's lean body.

But what about reality?

When the Bulls got the ball, Marcus was just a little slow. He didn't pass the ball immediately, but Lin Shaojie grabbed the gap and completed the steal.

"Another steal?"

Zhang Weiping said in disbelief: "Nate Robinson has given Coach Lin three steals before. What happened to the Bulls? The same is true for the new players. Is this a big gift of steals?"

It was Lin Shaojie's first attempt, but Marquez, who was in the same class, was indeed a little careless, but Paul George and Stephenson did not have such concerns. When Lin Shaojie stole the ball, the two of them started running in unison.

That confidence in Lin Shaojie is perfectly reflected in their fast pace.

After stealing and controlling the ball, Lin Shaojie took the basketball back from the Bulls' hands. Paul George stepped into the Bulls' backcourt and felt his feet were hot. He was only a foot away from the free throw line. After stepping hard, Lin Shaojie took advantage of the situation and took the ball in his hands.

Fly over.

Paul George, who caught the ball with both hands in the air, aimed at the basket and slammed it down.

"Clang!"

"Whoosh!"

"pretty!"

Yang Yi clenched his fists and cheered: "The Pacers' counterattack was too fast. It was another three-second fast break. From the steal to the successful dunk, it only took more than three seconds."

"I have long said that a lineup like the Bulls is not good, and the players Thibodeau replaced have little experience. How can such players compete with Coach Lin? It is completely a gift."

Zhang Weiping, who followed up with a last-ditch attack, also looked like a strategist on Liangshan Mountain.

At the scene, the Pacers players stood up and applauded one by one on the sidelines. Paul George acted like a bodybuilder, walking with steps that he would not recognize, and was extremely arrogant.

Thibodeau, who was sitting on the coaching bench, also clenched his fists.

"Just came on, just came on, give him some more chances!"

Thibodeau knows very well that for a rookie like Marquez, he will be replaced as soon as he comes on the field. If he does this kind of thing, the player's spirit will be almost useless and his mentality will collapse.

However, Marquez, who was shouldering a heavy responsibility for the first time, had limited performance as a substitute. The most important thing was that the timing of his appearance was too bad, and he knocked down the big devil as soon as he came on the field.

Even though he has a strong body, he is not as good as Lin Shaojie in terms of height, strength...even experience, etc. This is just looking for abuse.

The next three minutes were like a year for Marquez.

Lin Shaojie's reputation of "bullying men and women," and "bullying good people" during the regular season also works in the playoffs.

If Robinson's three steals in his hands were an accident, then Marquez came on as a rookie and made four turnovers in three minutes, and was caught and severely beaten by Lin Shaojie. Then,

The mentality is even more broken than being substituted.

Thibodeau looked full of hope and vitality before playing, but now...

"With a gray face, who am I? Where am I? Basketball? I want to go home." Thibodeau almost called a timeout for Marquez.

But when I saw that there were still 50 seconds left for the game to end, I gave up and replaced him in the second quarter!

Let's look at the score difference again. From 15 points to 23 points, the Pacers took advantage of the Bulls in the first quarter. I have never seen "Niu Huanxi" before, but they achieved such a big score difference in the first quarter of the playoffs.

You can be proud.

Thibodeau made a huge mistake for his kindness. Marquez, who had a broken mentality, couldn't catch the ball in his own backcourt. In the end, Daequan Cook had to do it.

But it was useless. Lin Shaojie also caught a mistake from Dai Kuin at the last moment. Lin Shaojie, who was running all over the court in the first quarter, was cheered by the fans in the audience when the referee blew the final whistle.

"Lynn!"

"Lynn!"

"Lynn!"

"You know, you got 10 steals in one quarter, 10! Oh my God, I can't believe it, you completely defeated the Bulls."

Paul George and Hibbert were the Pacers' players who scored the most points in the first quarter. They made gains in the first and second half of the game, but their scores of 9 points were completely incomparable to Lin Shaojie's 10 steals.

He scored 10 steals in just one game. Thinking about Lin Shaojie's scores and assists, and the so-called joking dream of a center, with a lineup like the Bulls, scoring a quadruple-double, in the playoffs,

Not a bad idea!

I went to the eye hospital today. I didn't expect it to be such a hassle. There were too many people. Fortunately, I rushed back to make up for it.
