NBA: Sharks at the peak, guard the basket!

Chapter 397 Come on, abuse me!

Sitting and waiting is waiting to die, why not give it a go on the outside, maybe there is still a play.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Blazers' inside play is relatively difficult and they do not have an advantage at all, but Carlesimo decided to shoot from the outside to stabilize the offense.

As for the defensive end...

On the contrary, they hope that the Lakers can increase breakthroughs from the outside, which will reduce Lin Hong's shots accordingly.

After all, Lin Hong's low-post killer with the ball in the paint is basically equivalent to sending points.

And when the rest of the Lakers break through and hit the iron, at least they still have a chance to grab the rebound!
……

The second half of the game begins.

Lin Keluo played at the same time, plus Rick Fox and Bowen, Rodman and Bowen's tasks were all on defense!
However, as they played, they found that most of the Blazers' offense was handed over to the outside line. The pick-and-roll tactics and the touch feel good, and there was a faint tendency to chase points.

Contrary to the Blazers, the Lakers' main offensive force is combined internally and externally, but the opponent's defensive strength is much stronger, and they are obviously trying to fight.

Rasheed Wallace clung to him like a poultice, spamming and defending more and more.

Lin Hong held the ball with his back on the edge of the penalty area and suddenly hit it. Rasheed Wallace immediately lost his center of gravity and retreated half a step.

Lin Hong turned to the right and shook Rasheed Wallace's center of gravity again, turned around and went to the basket from the left, and made an easy layup.

Rasheed Wallace, who was shaken away, followed closely behind, and a seemingly inadvertent swing of his fist slammed on Lin Hong's lower back.

It was enough once or twice, but Rasheed Wallace didn't have a handle on his mouth. He sprayed it from the beginning to the end, and Lin Hong was immediately pissed off.

"Bastard, stop talking nonsense, I will tell you to lie down and go back to Portland!" Lin Hong cursed.

"Idiot, are you angry? The playoffs are like this, if you don't want to play, get out!"

Rasheed Wallace was overjoyed and continued to exhale the fragrance. The angrier Lin Hong was, the happier he was.

Trash talk is a bit low-level, but at least it can disgust Lin Hong, of course he never tires of it.

What is the most angry?

It's the most annoying to meet someone who is blown up by me, but still looks like I don't care.

Because trolls can't reason with you, and they never talk about logic, so just troll and it's over.

I'm not hard on anything, just hard on my mouth! !
Lin Hong suddenly laughed angrily, and suddenly felt like a scholar met a soldier and punched cotton.

But he likes this kind of tough guy...

It's a lot of fun fighting with people.

……

In the next game, the Blazers frequently succeeded in shooting from the outside. Relying on the pick-and-roll and speed advantages, they played an even match with the Lakers and clung to the point difference.

The Lakers continued to bombard indiscriminately inside, and Rasheed Wallace became Lin Hong's experience baby in practicing back hitting.

The first is dreamy footsteps. Lin Hong tried to use his footsteps to sway Rasheed Wallace's center of gravity. Although he did not succeed every time, if he could not sway you, I will fuck you hard! !
You asked for it, Rasheed Wallace!
So Lin Hong's offensive routine became to play with Rasheed Wallace with his feet first, and once he encountered Grant and Rasheed Wallace teaming up to double-team, he passed to the open shooter.

Simple, rough, efficient and practical.

Although Lin Hong could just come up and work hard, this is a rare opportunity to practice whoring for nothing.

On the other hand, the tool man...

Rasheed Wallace grew darker and darker.

When defending Rodman in the first game, he ate elbows a few times, who knows what it feels like.

And this time defending Lin Hong in the whole game, he didn't expect Rodman's elbow to be a younger brother in front of Lin Dazhuo.

Falk, I gave you a punch at most, but you don't have to catch me from beginning to end, do you? !

Rasheed Wallace is on the verge of crying, seriously...

Lin Hong's footsteps are like a dream, he has been thrown off his center of gravity many times, that's all.

The most unacceptable thing for him is that after being shaken away, it is usually over for a layup.

But after being shaken away, Lin Hong waited for himself to return to the defense, and then he did it hard. It was really done. He turned over with an iron elbow in a clear water, and beat Rasheed Wallace with a bruised nose and a swollen face.

If you can't shake me, you will hit me hard?
Shake it away and beat me hard?
Isn't this clearly a bully! !
……

Entering the fourth quarter, the Blazers barely stabilized the situation with efficient outside shooting.

The point difference of 18 points in the half was barely narrowed to 14 points, but it is still quite difficult to recover 14 points in a single quarter.

Especially when the Lakers are fully fired inside and outside, and the defense is online, it is even more difficult.

Compared with the ease of shooting from the outside, Rasheed Wallace and Brian Grant on the inside were blown up.

In terms of offense, the two often cooperate and can score a few goals.

As for defense...

They are too miserable.

Rodman only has rebounds in his eyes, don't care if you want to grab rebounds, elbow first!
On Lin Hong's side, Rasheed Wallace's trash talk is flying all over the sky, and he can't do without convincing, but given that Rasheed Wallace is a rare baby with experience.

With a big lead, he decided to sway people with his feet first, and then do it hard if he can't sway.

Both Lin Hong and Rodman are stamina monsters, and Da Chong is a man who can compete with Madonna, so the Lakers are completely suppressing the Blazers.

In the playoffs, every win or loss is crucial, and generally no team will give up lightly, except for this year's Kaizi.

However, the Blazers' dying struggle failed to achieve a comeback effect. Even if the point difference was narrowed to less than 10 points in the fourth quarter, even if they were behind by 1 point, they would lose.

In the end, the Portland Trail Blazers fell again with 94:104 in the second game, falling behind by a big score of 0:2.

林洪轻取35分、16篮板、5助攻、3盖帽；罗德曼6分、12篮板、2助攻；科比22分、8助攻、4篮板、3抢断！

The three of Lin Keluo scored 62 points together, accounting for only 6% of the team's total points.

And this game once again made other teams in the league smell something unusual.

A strong alliance is not scary, nor is the Big Three's strong alliance. What is terrible is the bottomless depth of the bench.

The Utah Shuangsha is very strong, and the supersonic team with a facelift is also a strong team, but no one thought that the Lakers would be able to make the depth of the bench so terrible with only piecemeal play during the offseason.

Other teams regretted it. The joining of Rodman, Rick Fox and others gave the Lakers a chance to rise again, making Lin Dazhuo and Luo Banwang join forces to dominate the inside!
The Lakers won both games at home, and the next game will be played in Portland, the city of tears.

The Lakers won the match point, and the Blazers had no way out.

If you lose one more game, you can go fishing. You can imagine how stressful it is.

Not to mention the first round of the playoffs, and get swept away?

You know, the Blazers this season are ambitious.

Rasheed Wallace at the power forward position has gradually improved after several seasons of polishing. The data of 14.6 points + 6.2 rebounds in the regular season has begun to realize the potential of a first-class power forward.

Center Sabonis can dominate the penalty area even with a pair of broken legs. He averaged 16.0 points and 10 rebounds per game in a double-double. He is a veritable insider Optimus Prime.

There is also Isaiah Ryder, the fifth pick in 93, who averaged 19.3 points per game and became the team's No. [-] scorer. In addition to his poor efficiency, both offense and defense can be considered effective.

It's really better than the starting lineup, and the Blazers also have a fight in the Western Conference quarterfinals.

But the Lakers pulled up a bench thug, and they were basically sure in the confrontation of the rotation lineup.

In addition, the advantage of the Lakers' main players is too great, and the Blazers' rotation will not be able to fill this big hole even if they can play.

……

U.S. time, May 5th, at 4:[-] p.m.

Trail Blazers home, Moda Center Arena.

Because the first round of the playoffs is three wins in five games, and the Lakers have won two games in a row and already got the match point.

Therefore, this game is likely to be the last game of the Trail Blazers playoffs, so the attendance rate is extremely high.

For the arrival of the Lakers, the home fans did not hesitate to send their deafening boos, wave after wave.

After all, if you beat your own team, your head will probably be shaved, so it’s okay to boo you twice.

Kobe and Rodman were fine, but Lin Hong was the one who booed the most.

Leaving aside the grievances and grievances of the regular season, the first game of the playoffs alone, if not for Lin Hong's efforts to turn the tide, the record of the two teams at this time should be a 1:1 tie.

What makes people angry is that Lin Hong steps on the Blazers every game, and almost all sports newspapers and magazines have headlines on the front pages, always adding the dazzling words of blasting the Blazers.

"Haha, Lin, your noodles are very good!" Rodman laughed out loud.

Noodles?

Is this also called platooning?
I suspect you are implicating me!

Lin Hong gave Rodman a white look, and Kobe also laughed, "The two old brothers stop fighting, cheer up and sweep the Blazers, they should shut up!"

"Leave Rasheed Wallace to me, and I promise he will crush his balls!" Rodman smiled cruelly.

"Eric, I'll leave Damon to you!" Lin Hong said to Eric Snow.

"no problem."

"Okay, after this game, let the Blazers go fishing!"

……

With two victories in hand, there is no panic in my heart.

Even if they only win one game in the remaining three games, they will be promoted, so the atmosphere in the Lakers team is still quite relaxed.

"I hope the Lakers can also complete the sweep in this game!"

Kenny Smith said: "To be honest, I am so looking forward to the collision between the Lakers and New York's new gangs this year!"

"No, you said it too early. The Knicks are very likely to reach the finals, but it is not absolute. The Celtics and that godlike man are the biggest resistance!"

Albert took a sip of water, "As for the Lakers wanting to reach the finals, it's not that easy. The Blazers will definitely counterattack with all their strength and won't make it so easy for them."

"If the Blazers want to win this game, they must find a way to solve the Lakers' inside line, and at the same time, their offensive firepower must be sufficient!"

Kenny Smith shook his head, "It's not easy to do one thing, but it's too difficult to do both."

Before the game started, the two chatted for a long time. They were all talented commentators who were rushed by God to feed them.

"Both sides are starting!"

"Avidas is facing Lin?" Albert was a little surprised, "Without Rasheed Wallace marking Lin, the effect of Avidas is not up to standard at all!"

"Rashid Wallace faced Dennis Rodman? In today's game, the Blazers want to release Lin?"

Kenny Smith was also surprised, but he also understood the embarrassment of the Blazers after thinking about it.

It is true that all members can play, but facing the Lakers, it is also true that the entire team does not have a single strongest point.

The inside combination of Lin Hong and Rodman, unless Lin Hong is in a sluggish state like the first game, the Blazers will have a chance, otherwise the inside will be blown through.

"This is a game of life and death, and the Blazers will not give up easily!"

"Then let's see what arrangements are prepared on both sides!"

……

A few minutes later, the third round of the first round officially started.

The starting lineups of the two sides were the same as in the first game. Rasheed Wallace returned to the 4th position to confront Rodman, and Sabonis continued to serve as the starting center, facing Lin Hong.

However, just after the game started, everyone smelled something unusual.

The potential unleashed by the last stand is incomparably astonishing. The Blazers, who have no way out, are like a cornered beast, showing an astonishing defensive strength.

All of them are fighting desperately, pressing close to the body, and making small moves constantly.

Even Sabonis went crazy and threw himself at Lin Hong. Although he knew that he was invincible, but he was fighting for physical fitness and exhaustion.

The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength.

Lin Hong can still beat Sabonis alone by relying on his footsteps when he gets the ball, but according to this kind of desperate confrontation, the physical energy consumption is indeed very high, and several attacks are all one-on-one.

And Rodman also encountered the same problem. Rasheed Wallace's core strength was not lost at all, and Rodman did not have the advantage when he fought hard. The Blazers were completely defensive against the two of them.

……

"Fack, are these bastards trying to kill us?"

Rodman spat lightly, using fierce confrontation to consume the opponent's main energy, which is too common.

But not often...

Who the hell fucks so hard at the beginning?

This is completely killing eight hundred enemies and destroying one thousand.

"Whatever he does, take advantage first, I don't believe that someone can exhaust me to death?"

Lin Hong gritted his teeth, a stern light flashed in his eyes.

"Okay, if you hit a few more shots later, I'll be in charge of rebounding!" Rodman clapped his hands.

After all, he is not good at offense, rebounding is his favorite, and of course the offense must be handed over to the most stable Lin Hong.

In the next game, the Blazers' tenacious resistance continued.

On the offensive end, Sabonis pulled Lin Hong to run blindly, but Lin Hong couldn't do without running.

After all, Sabonis's mid-range and long-range shots are also very good, and this just gave the Blazers several opportunities to hit the inside and score.

The Blazers scored almost half of the score in this quarter by Ryder.

Although the Lakers pinched Stoudemire from the outside line, they never expected that Ryder suddenly showed his power and made 8 of 6 shots, which was very efficient.

As for the Lakers' offense, Sabonis, who is marking Lin Hong, doesn't care about anything, as long as Lin Hong holds the ball, he will fight hard.

Even if you know you can't beat me, you have to fuck me up, otherwise you won't even be able to score points!
At the end of the first quarter, the score was 24:19, and the Lakers led by 5 points.

Because the defensive intensity is really too high, they almost always play against time.

It stands to reason that if Lin Hong eats Sabonis alone, the point difference should be even bigger.

However, the Blazers are obviously prepared, the Blazers' defensive blockade, followed by Sabonis' masochistic blocking.

Although Lin Hong could easily squeeze him away, but in the blink of an eye he would post it again. Anyway, he was entangled around Lin Hong, and Dugu begged for abuse.

Cut off the passing route between inside and outside, so it is not easy to send the ball to Lin Hong.
