Center first

Chapter 147 Restart

In the opening minute, it can be said that in such a short period of time, the confrontation between the two teams within the three-second zone attracted everyone's attention. Today, for the first time, Wade did not become the focus of the American Airlines Arena. All the brilliant moments were created by two big men over 2 meters.

Full of explosive power, flexible movement at the basket, huge body and absolute dominance, Lin Yi and Howard used the most powerful method to prove to everyone that this is their game, and there is no position like the center forward. The duel between the two is so passionate.

The person who is most proud now may be the person in charge of the TNT TV station. They hand-picked this game as a national live broadcast. Originally, they only wanted to rely on the duel between two tall men under the basket as a hype gimmick, but they did not expect this. The confrontation between two people will be so fierce.

Now I'm afraid these people will be laughing from ear to ear at the ever-increasing number of viewers. What do the audience want to watch now?I'm afraid they have long been tired of watching two small forwards or two top guards score against each other. Such pure physical entanglement at the basket made them suddenly find another taste.

The strong collision between the limbs, the non-stop crowding around the basket, the absolute power bursting out during offense, and the super control over the space around the basket, when these most traditional center forward skills reappeared in front of their eyes, they were able to It turns out that the hoop isn't all boring pushing and shoving, and the most beautiful raw skills can be played there too.

The big men are like Tyrannosaurus Rex in the dinosaur era. They have ruled the league for many years, but when the Joe gang ruled the world, all the glory of the center disappeared, and everyone began to hate this endless basket. Entanglement, they want to see those guys who fly in the sky perform basketball in a way that breaks away from gravity.

The most traditional basketball has disappeared without a trace since the day when the forwards and guards dominated the NBA. The only role of the center is to rebound and purely defend. Their offensive skills are almost extinct due to the compression of the rules. The beginning of the fall of the big men.

Since the end of the last golden period in the 90s, there has been no real super confrontation for many years. Count how many big guys are left in the current league that can give perfect data on both offense and defense. Why is the old Shark Still so sought-after, there are not many people in this league who can really perform the purest offense at the basket.

Now is the era of relying on shooting and breakthroughs to solve problems. Those center forwards are all tied up. No one can stand up and roar, and no one dares to meet those little guys rushing to the inside face to face. The center has almost retreated to the edge of the cliff.

Without the grievances between Chamberlain and Russell, without Kareem Abdul-Jabbar's unblockable hook, even Durham Potter can occupy the third place in the Eastern Conference All-Star draft, and now the NBA still has the purest Basket guard?

When everyone began to forget this ancient position, Lin Yi and Howard awakened everyone's nerves with a one-minute performance. The center can still be the ruler on the field. The big guys who check, use their hands to stir everyone's heartstrings, reminding them of the era of center dominance.

"Hey, old boy, after watching the game just now, do you recall the scene when you watched Hakim and the others play the finals? When that kid won the championship twice, he stepped on other centers Top." Old Chuck pointed to the wonderful picture played back on TV and said to Lewis.

"That's what I taught. Only my apprentice can be regarded as a perfect center forward. Strength, speed, skill, and desire for victory are all big guys who are worthy of my teaching. This kid Lin Yi is now He still lacks strength, he hasn’t reached the point where Hakeem hates failure, and he still lacks practice, this summer, I will definitely let him peel off a layer of skin.” Although Lewis was proud in his heart, he was still on the surface. It looks like a school of pointing out the country.

It took Lin only half a season to reach such a level, and it's something to be proud of no matter where you put it.Lewis and Old Chuck have watched every step of this little guy's growth, and now they are all waiting for the moment when Lin Yi stands on the highest podium.

"Coach, I'm really fine. It's just that my bones and the floor hit each other just now, and it hurts a little bit. I'm fine now. If you don't believe me, look." Lin Yi said, waving his arms, and pointed at Spurs. Terra said that his current body has no problems at all and can return to the court at any time.

"Comprehensive inspection until it is confirmed." Spoelstra didn't care what Lin Yi said, he needed to be confirmed by the team doctor. Throw away the whole season.

Lin Yi could only sit helplessly on the bench and let the team doctor stroke him back and forth from top to bottom, not enough to keep his eyes on the changing situation on the field, and also to take a look at the man sitting in the Magic team's rest area that big guy.

Howard is also trying his best to argue with the Magic team doctor how strong his body is. He doesn't want to waste time sitting on the bench because of an ordinary collision, because the form on the court is almost making him unable to sit still.

Lin Yi and Howard went off at the same time, Spoelstra replaced Lin Yi with Haslem, and Stan Van Gundy replaced Howard with Marcin Gortat, but this time the substitution made the field more balanced Lean on the Heat.

Because of the arrangement before the game, the control of the outside line of the Heat and Magic has not changed, but they lack a rebounding machine.Marcin Gortat is far behind Haslem in both scoring and rebound protection in the interior, not to mention the gap between him and Howard in the basket. One is an iron wall protecting the penalty area, and the other can only be regarded as The air under the basket.

From this point on the inside, the imbalance began, and the entire Magic team began to fall into a passive state. All their attacks were forced to be transferred to the outside. Without a point to rely on, they also began to lose the ability to transfer the ball.

When there is no guarantee of rebounds, the long-range artillery of the three-point shooters also began to lose sight. The Heat quickly began to widen the score gap under the leadership of Wade, and a wave of 6:0 attacks directly put the Magic. Called a timeout.

"Well done!" Lin Yi and Wade clapped their hands together, congratulating on the attack just now.

"If you can get that big guy down, I think it may be the best contribution to winning the game." Wade said jokingly, because without Howard's protection in the penalty area, Wade's breakthroughs are also less A lot of scruples, although Lin Yi's score is missing, but the opponent's loss is greater.

"Maybe you can think about it." The smile on the corner of Lin Yi's mouth was a bit evil.

"Okay, Lin Yi, now you can prepare to play." Spoelstra finally got confirmation of Lin Yi's health from the team doctor.The most important point is that he also saw the big man standing up again on the opposing bench.

"Your opponent is here." Wade patted Lin Yi's shoulder, pointed to Howard in the distance and said.

"I've been waiting for him for a long time. Now I'm in the lead. Let's continue later. This is our home field, and it's not the beast's turn to show off." Lin Yi clapped his hands vigorously.

The eyes of Lin Yi and Howard locked on each other at the moment they set foot on the floor again, continue, 1V1 battle, continue, the game at the basket!

Fight, start again!
(Uh, it rained a lot in Shenyang today. After almost a month of sweltering heat, I finally feel cool. I pray that the subscription will start to recover...)
