My basketball vision is different
Chapter 414 Champion Phase
Lin Shaojie's kicking dunk at the beginning ignited the enthusiasm of the fans in the audience. No one thought that Lin Shaojie, who was in charge of the overall situation as the "commander", would announce his arrival with such a explosive action after the start.
The fans waved their arms excitedly and shouted loudly.
"Lynn!"
"Lynn!"
"Lynn!"
For Lin Shaojie himself, he entered the state from the moment he stood on the field.
He doesn't care at all that the Pacers have already won their first victory. What he has to do now is to lead his teammates to cause trouble for the enemy, and then send the ball into the basket. All those who stand in front of him are his enemies.
Budenholzer, who was sitting off the court, saw this scene and his heart sank. The Pacers' opening state was a bit explosive!
When it was the Hawks' turn to attack, Millsap took the initiative to help Teague with the pick-and-roll. Not to mention, when he, the core, started to put down his body to benefit his teammates, the effect was very good. At least Lin Shaojie did not stop Teague immediately.
This gives the latter room to burst and pass.
But it is a pity that Korver did not hit the ball after receiving the pass from his teammate. Instead, the Pacers once again hit the fast break.
Millsap followed Lin Shaojie almost every step of the way to prevent him from catching the ball, but the Pacers who launched the fast break did not hand the ball to Lin Shaojie at all. George Hill and Paul George played a series of tacit cooperation.
Without Millsap, the Hawks have no one who can keep up with Paul George.
Those who are taller than "Pickled Pepper" are not as fast as him, and those who are faster than "Pickled Pepper" are not as tall as him.
Paul George also used an almost "bug" mismatch to successfully score a goal, consolidating the Pacers' lead.
The next game seemed to have entered the rhythm of the Pacers. Lin Shaojie could attract the attention of one or two players anytime and anywhere. However, when he was trapped in a double-team, the Pacers relied on breakthroughs to score consecutively. On the contrary, it was difficult for the Hawks to organize
Effective offense and Lin Shaojie's defense can always cut off external connections.
The Pacers scored 9-0 in the opening game and the fans never stopped cheering.
Budenholzer also didn't expect that the Pacers without Hibbert were not weak persimmons. Mahinmi's strength in the interior was obviously not as good as that of "Gao Yuanyuan," but his boldness and courage to fight and fight were quite attractive.
The level of human beings is about the same as that of Antichi.
The most important thing is that Lin Shaojie's "head start" after the start seemed to be a scam. He used his own advantages to attract the attention of the Eagles players. The final result was that the Eagles put too much attention on him, but he drifted away.
Outside of tactics, the Hawks are almost playing in a 3-on-4 format, so how can they be effective on both offense and defense?
After the Eagles called a timeout, they immediately adjusted their tactics and stopped double-teaming Lin Shaojie.
Seeing this situation, Lin Shaojie's offense with the ball began to gradually increase.
Although the Hawks withdrew the manpower placed on him, Millsap finally scored successfully and broke the scoring drought.
But facing Lin Shaojie's counterattack three-pointer, the Eagles players seemed a little at a loss.
Facing this super shooter with unprecedented three-point talent and ability, even if he did not move without the ball, it was impossible for the Hawks to defend in a one-on-one situation.
Lin Shaojie's sense of pressure when holding the ball on the outside is too strong. The sense of spatial distance he shows almost allows his shooting range to cover the entire half.
Mirza's close defense almost pressed against Lin Shaojie, but Lin Shaojie's backward movement was accompanied by the opponent's body moving backward at the same time. At the last moment, he paused in the air before completing the shot.
The stability after landing is compared to Millsap's stagger, and the strength of his core strength is clear at a glance.
With Lin Shaojie's current style of play, it is very likely that he will be able to kill everyone by the time he is forty years old.
Anyway, the coaches of both sides did not make any adjustments, and the starting lineups just fought each other on the court.
But the advantage has always been on the Pacers' side, and the point difference has been widening step by step.
In just ten minutes of the game, Lin Shaojie has already scored 16 points and 3 assists. Although he is not an almost explosive scoring ability, the feeling of being able to score with just one shot still gives his teammates and fans unlimited imagination.
.
It would be a blessing for any team to have such a player!
For the audience at the scene, it was not surprising that Lin Shaojie once again performed in outstanding form.
Lin Shaojie in the regular season and Lin Shaojie in the playoffs are two different species. This can be seen from the Pacers game last year.
Even some fans who only started paying attention to the Pacers after the Pacers won the championship last year find it a bit incredible.
During the regular season, Lin Shaojie would lead his teammates to gradually advance the game in a "slow-heat" manner, and then overtake and win. The Pacers always won the game inadvertently, and Lin Shaojie was also famous for being "lazy".
They are the group of starting players who played the least minutes during the regular season in the entire league.
But after entering the playoffs, Lin Shaojie, who was originally "perfunctory", disappeared. Just like in the last round of games, Lin Shaojie had the strongest presence on the Pacers team, and he was everywhere on the court.
The same is true for this round of competition.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, it would be hard for this group of people to believe that there were players who showed such a big gap. The last player with such an obvious difference was O'Neal, but that was limited by his physical condition. Lin Shaojie's physical fitness has never been
If there is no problem, this seems outrageous.
But just in that playing time, the Chinese have achieved the most efficient efficiency value in history.
"The Eagle is in big trouble."
Li Dacheng sat on the sidelines and said cheerfully: "If you double-team, you will be four against three; if you don't double-team, you won't be able to play one-on-one, and there will be no success no matter how you fight."
Song Lingfei watched with great joy. Although he would be returning tomorrow, he was indescribably satisfied to be able to see such a game today.
On the court, Millsap also panicked when faced with Lin Shaojie's ball-handling attack.
"If you have the ability, keep investing!"
In order to cheer himself up, Millsap said fiercely, but Lin Shaojie seemed to turn a blind eye to this.
During his half-turn to protect the ball, no Hawks player came forward to double-team him, except Millsap.
Lin Shaojie suddenly leaned on Millsap and his strength sank. Millsap, who was obviously taller, couldn't hold back his strength and was pushed back a little by this sudden force.
Lin Shaojie, who was "borrowing power", turned around and stepped back, pressing Millsap down and firing a long shot.
In this round, Millsap didn't even have a chance to block a shot. His center of gravity was destroyed and there was no time to adjust.
From this goal, it is obvious that Millsap, who is the core of the Hawks, cannot compete with Lin Shaojie in terms of strength. The two sides are not players of the same level at all.
The reason why he was able to fight Paul George back and forth was because Millsap did not meet an opponent who could restrain him, and Lin Shaojie in front of him restrained him to death.
Jeff Teague, who was serving again on the side, shook his head helplessly when he saw this scene.
He was a victim of the previous game, and the Millsap of this game became the same person he was in the last game.
How could Teague not understand Lin Shaojie?
He was "repaired" several times last season, when the Eagles were strong and their positions were similar.
But when it comes to assist ability, the gap between the two sides is not even a little bit.
After Teague completed his contract extension with the Hawks, he averaged nearly 16 points and 7 assists per game that season, but it was completely incomparable to Lin Shaojie's 27 points and 13 assists in his rookie season.
Tigue still remembers Lin Shaojie's exaggerated moment of grabbing a shot in the air. Those enviable big hands are rare even in the American professional basketball.
If he can still be considered a star, then Lin Shaojie is no longer from Earth. Such an opponent is incredibly talented.
Teague, who has known his opponent well, knows very well how much his skills and talents are inferior to his.
It seems that at some point in history, one or two dazzling figures will appear.
For example, the old gangsters in the 1990s, Big Bird and the Magician in the 1980s.
With the ability that Lin Shaojie showed, he was still capable of fighting twenty years ago. His extraordinary reaction was the biggest threat to the Hawks. It seemed that in the eyes of No. 13, all Hawks players
The movements are slower.
He can steal whenever he wants.
Millsap didn't know the mentality of his teammates, but throughout the first half, his defense was completely ineffective. If he didn't have some strength on the offensive end and hit a few strong shots, the core of this Eagle would really be wasted.
half the game.
When the game entered the second half and the score difference between the two sides was close to 20 points, and Lin Shaojie was still standing on the court, everyone knew that it was not certain whether the game could last for three quarters.
Song Lingfei and Li Dacheng jumped up and hugged each other. The Pacers' 2-0 series victory at home was about to become a foregone conclusion, which also allowed them to free up more time to rest.
As the first round of the title defense battle, the Pacers had a very good start.
As the head coach of the Hawks, Budenholzer looked at the opponent and other than replacing West with Scola and Gobert replacing Mahinmi, no other core adjustments were made.
And Scola's softness in the inside attack is far better than that of West. The Argentine can always score some magic goals in such games.
Lin Shaojie had 6 assists on "Diamond" alone in the third quarter, which also made Scola happy.
As for Gobert, his ability in offense is limited. On the contrary, in defense, he is really the patron saint of the paint area, turning that "one-third-acre of land" into a no-fly zone.
Lin Shaojie and Paul George took the opportunity to complete a lot of steals and blocks, and the point difference was directly 30 points.
When the media reporters at the scene saw this scene, they all looked at Budenholzer, wanting to see how long the Hawks coach could persist until he surrendered.
Doesn't it mean that without Hibbert, the Pacers are missing half of their country?
Nowadays, this is not the case at all. The Pacers, who must first settle down when facing foreign players, seem to have transformed very well. A playoff game finally allowed Scola, a veteran, to find the taste of spring.
"Coach Lin in this game is terrible!"
In front of the TV, Zhang Weiping couldn't help but explain: "Although Coach Lin scored a lot in this game, the ability he showed in defense almost exhausted the opponent's energy.
The third quarter of the game is not over yet, and we can already see that Millsap is sweating profusely and walking heavily, and Teague, as the Hawks point guard, his mentality has long been messed up..."
When Teague and Millsap made consecutive mistakes and had the ball stolen, everyone knew that the Hawks' game was over.
As the saying goes, offense wins and defense wins championships. As soon as Budenholzer saw the physical fitness of his main players was in crisis, he immediately called a timeout and withdrew his main players, giving up the game semi-tacitly.
Anyway, it is too difficult to win in the Pacers' devil's home court. The Hawks can only wait until they return to their home court before making any plans.
"The game ended early!"
When Lin Shaojie and Paul George came off the court together, the host on the scene had already started cheering. The 30-point difference data was displayed there. There was still one quarter of game time, and the Hawks wanted to rely on their bench.
Will the shrimp soldiers and crabs complete the reversal?
There is no such possibility.
Just looking at Scola who is still on the court, you know how deep the Pacers' bench is.
During his time as a substitute, Scola eventually became the Pacers' third-highest scoring player with 20 points.
For the Hawks, Millsap scored the most points with only 19 points, and Teague only scored 14 points.
The final score of 110 to 72 said it all. The Pacers used a big victory to tell everyone that even without Hibbert, they are not something that a rookie like the Hawks can bully.
After the game, Millsap's mentality was obviously damaged.
"Today I don't want to discuss any topic related to basketball, at least when Linn is around, I don't want to talk about this topic. He makes me feel the breath of despair."
Teague on the side also hesitated to speak, and finally nodded.
"I have the same view. The Pacers are a strong team, and Lynn is the helmsman of this team. We will try to find a way to restrain them at home. Now we just want to have a good rest. It is too hard to play against the Pacers.
, that No. 13 always tries to use up every ounce of our energy."
As the second game of the first round of the entire series, the game between the Pacers and the Hawks started first, and the result was that the Pacers proved that their position as the leader was unshakable.
In the game that followed, the Raptors defeated the Nets and the two sides tied at one to one;
The Bulls also lost to the Wizards at home by 2 points, losing two games in a row.
The Heat, considered the only one capable of challenging the Pacers in the Eastern Conference, used two home games to defeat the Bobcats without any blood.
In the second game of the Bobcats' playoff run, new core Gilchrist almost led the team to a comeback, but the more experienced Heat used Walker's three-pointer to win at the last moment.
The battle situation in the east is like this, but the situation in the west is somewhat unexpected.
The champion Spurs actually lost to the Mavericks in the second round at home. The Frenchman only scored 12 points in the game. Duncan was also in poor condition and only scored 11 points.
If Ginobili hadn't scored 27 points, the GDP trio would have been absolutely embarrassing today.
Facing the Mavericks' attacking inside lineup composed of Ellis and Marion, the Spurs seemed to be unable to defend themselves. The Mavericks tried their best to attack the inside no matter whether they entered or not. They really won a suicidal attack.
Away advantage.
In addition, the Rockets lost to the Trail Blazers, with a score of 0-2 in two rounds. This made the Rockets, who wanted to compete for the championship, lose face.
The Thunder defeated the Grizzlies to a one-to-one tie. The Grizzlies' inside power was so lethal that any team that wanted to win against them would have to make sacrifices.
The Warriors, who left a deep impression on many teams last season, have dimmed their stars in this round of playoffs. Curry's unstable three-point shooting rate has become the biggest reason for the failure in these two rounds.
If the core players don't score, it can't be justified.
Anyway, after looking at this series of games, the Pacers are the most likely to win the championship. Their performance is too stable.
