I really play basketball

Chapter 89 Lore!

In this game, if you really want to say that Ma Long is tough, he will be tough for half a quarter.

In the second quarter of the first half when Lin Xing went to rest, the Jazz relied on him to lead the team to even out the score gap that was about to open to double digits.

In this half of the game, Malone scored 8 points, 3 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal.

而比赛打到第四节的最后阶段时，他14投5中，只入账了13分9个篮板2个助攻和1个抢断。

With about three quarters remaining, he only scored 5 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal.

Why is the postman playing so hard in this game?Jerry Sloan on the sidelines knew it.

He kept staring at Lin Xing who was flying up and down on the field, squinting his eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

Soon, there was a bang, and there was a loud iron strike on the field.

It was Xiao Chong, he rushed to the frontcourt and missed a three-pointer.

With the sound of iron striking, Sloan glanced at the scoreboard above his head.

With 5 minutes and 22 seconds left in the game, the score was 81 to 78.

According to NBA practice, the home team is behind.

This also means that although the Jazz have the ball in this current round, they need a three-pointer to equalize the score.

But when the Warriors retreated on the court, Lin Xing put his long arms against Malone and took a step away, leaving enough space to defend against pick-and-rolls.

Stockton asked for a pick-and-roll without any flexibility. When the speed was about to pass, Lin Xing, who had enough space, moved directly two steps, delaying Stockton's continued advance.

On the other side, Ma Long descended quickly, and Lin Xing saw him distance himself from him, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of Xiao Chong who had already avoided the cover and rushed forward.

So he stopped hesitating, turned his head, and rushed towards Ma Long.

At the moment Lin Xing turned his head, Malone received a pass from Stockton.

Tyrone Hill did not leave Felton Spencer behind, so what Malone needs to face is an empty basket.

Ma Long, who had been aggrieved for almost the entire game, suddenly became angry, and jumped up high and wanted to dunk.

"Roar!"

He roared angrily, but heard a bang, and a crisp sound exploded at his Tianling Gai.

Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of inhalation and a huge exclamation in the center of the delta.

In the commentary seat, Matt Gudica's voice rose high: "Karl Malone, he's about to buckle...NO!!!"

"Sta blocked the must-go ball from behind! His arms are too long and he jumps too high!"

While the commentator was amazed, on the court, Lin Xing, who had completed the block, was facing Ma Long's butt, and the inertia after landing made him hit Ma Long.

Ma Long staggered a few steps towards the bottom line, looking quite embarrassed.

Lin Xing still pretended to be aggressive, he directly raised his hands to indicate that he did not push Ma Long.

But in fact, this is a provocation.

Ma Long stabilized his figure, and when he saw Lin Xing's action, he became angry all of a sudden. He turned around and was about to rush towards Lin Xing, but was stopped by Stockton next to him.

Seeing Ma Long being stopped by Stockton again and again, Lin Xing had already seen that this guy was just a sham.

Immediately, the disdainful Lin Xing rolled his eyes and left.

He knew that this fight would definitely fail.

Although he is very greedy for Ma Long's mid-range shot, there is really nothing he can do if Ma Long doesn't do it.

As for the first move?He was afraid that Stern would suspend him for more than ten games or even more when he saw that he did not keep his promise.

Then his rookie season is likely to be ruined.

Don't forget, System Rick still has a main task for his rookie season.

Although the reward is unknown, as of now, Lin Xing can confirm that if he wants to get the badge, he has to rely on missions.

The role of the badge is still obvious. A master of the first step directly makes him a master of breakthroughs, and a king of confrontation makes him fearless in confrontation.

Therefore, Lin Xing wanted more.

Shaking his head, Lin Xing returned to the defensive end.

He faced Malone again, but the Jazz didn't go from Malone's side.

Stockton asked for a Filton Spencer screen and went in.

After attracting the help defense, he distributed the ball to another Malone on the court, Jeff Malone.

Jeff Malone was the Jazz's shooting guard before Hornacek, and the difference was that he barely had threes.

Therefore, after receiving the ball from outside the three-point line, he pretended to make a fake shot, and then walked in quickly.

He rushed to the basket and raised his hand to make a throw, with a bang!
The Jazz regained 2 points in this way, 81 to 80, and they are still 1 point behind.

Turning back to the Warriors' round, it was still Lin Xing who rushed with the ball and disrupted the Jazz's defensive formation.

From the beginning of the second quarter, the Jazz used a pseudo-union defense to guard against Lin Xing. Lin Xing's role was only to rush with the ball and disrupt the formation.

Even so, Old Nelson still did not change the established tactical arrangements.

Because he feels that the effect of Lin Xingchong's wave is still very good, the bottom corner, the two wings and even the top of the arc are full of empty spaces.

Just like this round, Lin Xingchong sent out a ball in a wave, and the madman caught it.

Outside the three-point line, he made a three-pointer without any interference.

With a bang, the ball hit the frame heavily.

This is the status quo of this game, the Warriors' peripheral feel is not good.

So much so that they got a lot of opportunities, but they couldn't convert these opportunities into real scores.

Otherwise, in the case of Malone's abnormal performance, the game should have been overwhelmingly overwhelmed.

Turn around, the Jazz's offense.

After a frontal pick-and-roll, in the middle distance, Stockton made a direct shot himself.

Swish!
Another two-point hit, 81 to 82, the Jazz overtook the score.

Then, the Warriors' offense.

It was still Lin Xing, who rushed from the right side and pulled the Jazz's defense completely to the right side.

Immediately, a transfer ball was given to Xiao Chong on the left, Xiao Chong received the ball, swayed outside the three-point line, and passed Stockton.

Because the Jazz's defense is on the right side, Xiao Chong passed Stockton and faced an empty basket.

He accelerated in three steps and two steps, raised his hand and made a layup.

83 to 82, the Warriors lead by 1 point.

After that, it is a repetition of the previous two rounds.

The Jazz's offense, while Lin Xing continued to stare at Malone, Stockton once again did it himself.

He rushed to the basket after the pick-and-roll and made a successful throw.

The Delta Center cheered, and the two commentators in the commentary booth were also very emotional: "With less than 4 minutes left in the game, Karl Malone only scored 13 points, but the Jazz still killed the score."

"Because of John Stockton, he stood up and scored 29 points, 5 baskets and 10 assists in three and a half quarters. In this game, he proved that he is not just a passer."

Stockton broke out, and he alone withstood the Warriors' impact.

On the other side, it was still Lin Xing who charged against Corbin's defense.

He suddenly found that Ma Long's defense was a step slower.

So, he went straight in.

Felton Spencer looked like a tank, striding towards the basket, Lin Xing was not afraid, he went straight up.

but……

He is not afraid, and Lin Xing is even less afraid.

If Ma Long was guarding the basket, Lin Xing might be a little more vain.

A Felton Spencer who is not qualified to be a blue-collar center, forget it!
Galloping to the basket, Lin Xing directly started to stride.

Then, he ran into Spencer head-on.

Clang!
With a loud bang, Lin Xing fiercely pushed the basketball into the basket through Spencer!
"Ohhhh! God!!!"

"Si Da rushed in and directly threw a dunk, it was too explosive!"

"Filton Spencer is yet another victim, and it looks like he's been duped."

Felton Spencer was detained and stunned, but John Stockton's brain was still very clear.

He quickly urged Spencer to serve from the baseline, then rushed to the front court and scored his 31st point of the game with a mid-range shot.

85 to 86, the Jazz lead by 1 point.

And the game has already entered the last 3 minutes.

In the last 3 minutes, the Warriors' offense was still Lin Xing's first charge, disrupting the defense and then scoring one side.

This time it was Xiao Chong who caught the ball. He took a step away and shot a long two-pointer, but it hit the iron with a bang.

Watching Spencer grab the rebound, Old Nelson suddenly shouted:
"Defend and defend, defend the next ball!"

Lin Xing was full of question marks, damn it, what did old Nelson yell?defense?

That's right, it's defense.

Old Nelson was in a hurry. He had a premonition that Xiao Chong's iron gave the Jazz a chance to further open up the score.

If the Jazz really want to open the score, the game will go far.

Therefore, they must do a good job of defense in the next round.

but……

Stockton has been obsessed. After a pick-and-roll, he directly shot a long two-pointer.

Swish!
Stockton scored the 33rd point of the game, and the Jazz also took a 88-point lead with a score of 85 to 3.

With the last 2 minutes and 17 seconds left in the game, Old Nelson spread his hands. He felt that the game was going to go far.

Because of the poor touch of the outside shooters, Lin Xing was also stared to death, and the Warriors are already a little lacking in scoring.

Just as the crowd in the Delta Center was cheering, the Warriors' offense——

In the front court, Lin Xing suddenly used a cross step that he hadn't used for a long time.

Just when Corbin habitually thought he was going to go in, Lin Xing took a step back, and then pulled out a three-pointer without hesitation.

Corbin was dizzy, he subconsciously rushed to interfere, but it was too late.

Swish!
Three points into the bag, making a crisp sound of wiping the net.

boom!
There were exclamations from the Delta Center, Lin Xing raised his shooting right hand, clenched his fist, and swung it hard.

"Tyrants don't shoot three-pointers, do you think tyrants don't shoot three-pointers?"

In the commentary seat, the two commentators were all amazed.

"It's too critical, this three-pointer from Si Da is too critical!"

"No one could have imagined that the one who stood up at the last moment would be Star, who had been locked up by the Jazz's zone defense for three quarters."

The two blew a few words, and the titles of Mr. Key, Big Heart, etc. were all placed on top of Lin Xing's head.

In the previous round, they also praised Stockton in the same way.

But soon, with the Jazz's offense, Stockton made another mid-range shot, which hit the iron with a bang.

As for Mr. Key's Lin Xing, he made a strong charge and made a layup against Malone's help defense, but also missed the basket.

The two key men hit the iron one after another, and the game entered the most critical last minute.

In the last minute, Old Nelson, who held two long timeouts and one short timeout, was the first to call a timeout.

After the timeout, the Warriors adjusted their defense.

Lin Xing continued to stare at Ma Long, and Stockton used the pick-and-roll to enter, but soon encountered the help of the madman.

Although Stockton quickly found the open Jeff Malone, but at the critical moment, Tyrone Hill's flexibility was brought into play.

He rushed out quickly and held off Jeff Malone who was trying to drive straight to the basket.

At the basket, Lin Xing directly defended against Malone with one hand and held Felton Spencer with the other.

Malone saw hope, he broke free from Lin Xing's defense, rushed to the basket to receive a pass from Jeff Malone, and turned around to go up.

But at this moment, Lin Xing held Ma Long in place with both hands.

beep!

Beep beep!

The referee blew the whistle hastily, and rushed to the field immediately, for fear that the two would fight.

Lin Xing knew that it was impossible to fight, although he held down Ma Long too much in this defense.

But Ma Long was very timid, and he just struggled to break free when he was held down, and then glared at Lin Xing fiercely.

Lin Xing moved his face close to him, and stared back viciously.

This means, if you have the ability, you can do it!
But Ma Long still stared at Lin Xing viciously, with no intention of making a move at all.

The referee pulled the two apart, gave Lin Xing a defensive foul, and sent Malone to the free throw line.

Swish-!
There was a clear sound of wiping the net, and Malone hit the first free throw.

Then, he turned his head to look at Lin Xing in embarrassment: "Thank you for your foul, I'm going to seal the victory!"

There seemed to be nothing wrong with these words. After Lin Xing's offense, there were only 42 seconds left in the game.

As long as the Jazz can get a 2-point lead, they can force the Warriors to shoot three-pointers.

But since the game entered the last moment of the final quarter, the Warriors only scored a three-pointer from Lin Xing.

Without three points, the Jazz's 2-point lead is enough to seal the victory.

Lin Xing smiled slightly: Wait until you get a 2-point lead before saying this!

When Malone took the first free throw, he discovered that Malone had a habit before making free throws——

He didn't know what he was chanting, which made people confused, but Lin Xing also found an opportunity from it.

So, just as Malone received the ball, muttered something, raised his hand, and was about to make a second free throw.

Lin Xing suddenly said: "The postman does not work on weekends."

After one sentence, Ma Long's hands trembled, and with a bang, he missed the second free throw.

The madman jumped up and grabbed the rebound, and immediately had another timeout.

88 to 89, the Jazz only led by 1 point.

Looking at the time again, at 42 seconds, Old Nelson immediately had an idea:
"Let's make a quick break and keep the time around 32 seconds..."

Fast break one and keep the time around 32 seconds.

In this way, in the last 42 seconds, the Warriors were able to attack twice.

And this is the last hope of the Warriors.

Soon, the sideline kicked off, and after halftime, it was still Lin Xing.

He held the ball at the top of the arc, but two seconds later, he turned sideways and gave Xiao Chong a hand-to-hand cooperation.

Xiao Chong received the ball, jumped up and scored a three-pointer.

Bang!

With a loud noise, Malone grabbed the rebound under the basket and swung his elbow to drive away the madman beside him.

The Delta Center cheered, and then Sloan called a timeout.

After a pause, Xiao Chong was a little annoyed, but Lin Xing patted him: "Don't worry, there is still a ball."

Old Nelson's eyes lit up when he heard Lin Xing's words: "That's right, there is still a ball!
We still have a chance to take away this victory, we will guard against one later! "

Old Nelson set up another false zone defense, focusing on Stockton.

After the timeout, this pseudo-joint defense played a role.

After the kickoff, Stockton wasted time first.

When there were only 7 or 8 seconds left in the offense, he started and used the pick-and-roll to break through.

But when he rushed in, he encountered pinch defense.

Although the first time, he found Jeff Malone with a wide open position on the weak side.

But Jeff Malone raised his hand to score a three-pointer in the last two seconds, but there was a bang, and the iron hit.

Jerry Sloan shook his head as he watched Lin Xing squeeze past Malone to grab the rebound.

When the old Nelson called the last timeout, Lin Xing was also thankful that the Jazz hadn't replaced Jeff Malone with his father-in-law at this time.

Otherwise, these three points must have been obtained.

But now, Jeff Malone missed a three-pointer, and in the last 9 seconds, the ball returned to the Warriors.

"A timeout. In the last 9 seconds, the Jazz lead by 1 point, but the Warriors hold the ball. They have a chance to kill this game!"

The opportunity for the lore is already in front of us, what needs to be done now is to arrange a lore tactic.

Although at the last moment of the final quarter, only Lin Xing was scoring for the Warriors.

But out of distrust of Lin Xing's three-pointer, the old Nelson still arranged a long-range lore tactic for Mullin.

Soon, in the center of the delta——

"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

"..."

The Warriors kicked off from the sideline, and it was still Lin Xing, who passed Tyrone Corbin and took the basketball with his long arms.

Then, a pass was passed to Xiao Chong.

Then he inserted the flank and gave Mullin a single block sideways.

In just a few seconds, the Warriors ran out of the established tactical arrangement.

With 3 seconds left at the end, Chris Mullin caught the ball, jumped up in mid-air, and raised his hand to shoot.

"Stat had a great screen, he blocked Jeff Malone who was following Chris Mullin, and then he went to the basket..."

In the commentary seat, Matt Gudica didn't know what to think, he set his sights on Lin Xing without the ball.

So much so that he completely ignored Mullin who caught the ball and shot a two-pointer.

NBC TV only heard Marv Albert yelling: "When the shot was made, Chris Mullin, in the last 3 seconds, the basketball flew to the basket!"

Bang!

The heavy sound of the basketball hitting the hoop surprised all Jazz fans.

"Didn't enter, lore failed?"

When Albert questioned, Gudica shouted: "Sta, he jumped up and made a tip!"

Amidst the exclamation, a pair of rough yellow hands abruptly held up the bounced basketball.

At the moment when the red light came on, the timer beeped, resounding throughout the court, so that the sound of the basketball bouncing into the net was faint and inaudible.

Matt Gutica yelled, "Goal!"

"Sta, he killed the Jazz!"

"With a key tip-up, the lore beat the Jazz..."

"Mr. Key, big heart, real killer..."

The stands around the stadium were full of gaping mouths. In the silence, a corner of the stadium immediately boiled, white towels were flying, and a group of people rushed to Lin Xing's side in an instant.

Cheers, jump for joy!
"Lore, the tyrant's first game in the NBA!"
