Chapter 85 86. Crazy Chasing Points
Nick held up his right index finger and made a "keep calm" gesture, signaling his teammates to relax.

"We are leading, guys, that's 16 points! Want to catch up in 4 minutes? It's a fantasy!"

McCollum on the bench yelled loudly, and he deliberately let the Lakers players hear it, always reminding them that the current point difference is 16 points, and it will take at least six rounds to recover!

Obviously, Stotts took special care of Lin Feng. He is the soul of this Lakers team. Restricting Lin Feng is the first problem that the Blazers must solve.

Curry no longer gave him enough shooting space, and instead the two double-teamed in a small range.

Before Lin Feng was double-teamed, he threw the ball to Mikhailiuk who was open. He might be too nervous, and the basketball he threw didn't touch the basket!

The basketball fell straight into Meyers' arms, and the audience roared with laughter.

The Ukrainian guy's face is ashen, which means that the Blazers have the opportunity to widen the point difference to 18 points.

Lin Feng patted him on the shoulder and told Miha that it didn't matter, "Don't worry about it, focus on the next ball, if I have a chance, I will still pass it to you."

The Blazers moved the ball more to Nick and he started the offense.Curry's task is to bring Lin Feng to the off-ball side as much as possible.

They targeted Mikhailuk very specifically, thinking that Mikhailuk was an inexperienced rookie.

Hallix's turnaround jumper bounced out of the frame, and Wagner jumped up to receive the rebound.

The audience was full of regret. If it was a little more left, the Portlanders could regain their 18-point lead.

It's a pity that Lin Feng's next three-pointer also missed. This ball was chosen to be handed over to God, and he shot it with the help of Finsen's cover.

The time is about to enter the last 3 minutes, and the Portlanders are getting closer and closer to their first win of the season.

Off the court, Stotts and Lillard became more relaxed.

Walton asked the Lakers to continue to speed up the offensive rhythm, and losing [-] points is no different from losing one point.

At 181 seconds, when Lin Feng was blocked, Finsen stood up. He made a show at the top of the arc, and then faced Hallix and shot a three-pointer into the net.

After the basketball was shot, Finsen didn't look at the result, and directly opened his arms to celebrate the score. Fortunately, he didn't mess up the attack.

13 points! 3 minutes!
If it is a seasoned Lillard, he will reduce passing and choose individual singles, which is the safest way.

Don't think too much, hand the ball to your star players at the critical moment!

The star of the Trail Blazers is Nick Stauskas.

He dribbles the ball slowly across the half court, but Nick is only a perimeter player, he is not good at driving or making wonderful dribbles.

In fact, none of the Blazers' players on the field has this. Perhaps the genes in Curry's body can awaken him, but now it seems that Curry is not very confident.

put all one's eggs in one basket!Lin Feng decided to gamble and steal!
He first met Nick near the half court, gave him a physical confrontation, and then continued to harass the ball holder.

Lin Feng was waiting for the opportunity, waiting for the moment when this guy couldn't take it anymore and wanted to pass the ball!
The world in consciousness is complex and changeable, and will change according to any changes on the field.

After walking the baseline, Curry went around to the top of the 45-degree arc on the left. Hart was blocked by Meyers' tall body for half a second, and Nick wanted to pass the ball!
Three seconds later, Curry received a pass from Nick and shot a three-pointer before Hart rushed up!
The time was too short, Lin Feng could not know the final result of that ball.

But Lin Feng can choose to stop the pass!

Suddenly, almost at the same time as Nick passed the ball, Lin Feng quickly took a step in the direction of Curry.

Nick passed the ball directly into Lin Feng's arms!
At that moment, the Trail Blazers players were stunned, and Stephenson, who reacted extremely quickly, rushed forward quickly, and his starting speed at that second seemed to be comparable to that of Bolt.

With his own judgment, Lin Feng made Curry's three-pointer come to naught. He quickly dribbled the ball across half court and went straight to the basket!
Nick's reaction is also not slow. After a pass error, he immediately turns around and chases back. With his height advantage, he can bring great pressure to Lin Feng.

Everyone thought that Lin Feng was going to the basket and dunking like before, because he was good at that.

Even Lao Zhan was waiting for his dunk, as explosive as himself when he first entered the league.

"Come on, Gary will never show mercy to the basket." Kenny on the commentary stand had already thought about his next lines, and he was 100% sure that this would be the best dunk of the day.

However, just two steps past the three-point line, Lin Feng braked suddenly, and Nick, who was following behind, had no time to react, and was directly shaken to the ground.

Step back?
Lin Feng actually took a step back to the three-point line. This was a scene that no one expected!
"Oh my god, he wants three points! Three points!" Kenny couldn't help shouting.

The little Curry who caught up was only one step away from him!
Lin Feng glanced at the basket, jumped, and almost threw the ball with Curry behind him.

Little Curry's physical fitness could not stop him from taking off at all, so he could only pull with all his strength.

There was no time to think about this shot. Curry, who originally wanted to block behind him, was called a foul!Three-point foul!

However, the basketball is still flying on the court.

After falling to the ground, Lin Feng raised his arms, and the camera pointed at him, celebrating three free throws?
Everyone was shocked a second later, this is a 3+1, and there is a chance to get four points in one round!

The Lakers on the bench started to jump up. If the extra penalty is hit, the point difference will return to single digits, nine points.

This will be the first time the Lakers have entered single digits after the third quarter.

Stotts couldn't control his emotions anymore, and rushed to the sidelines to reason with the referee. He didn't think it was a three-point foul.

It didn't help, the live playback was already too obvious, Curry violated Lin Feng's cylinder, the commentator Kenny thought this was a typical three-point foul and could be written into the textbook.

Lillard's face was livid, with only 22 points left in the lead of up to 9 points, and anything could happen in 3 minutes.

"Nice job Gary!"

Rondo on the bench applauded him, and Big McGee played the role of Wagner, waving the towel vigorously.

This game was originally the focus of the first round. It was broadcast live across the United States, and hundreds of millions of people around the world will watch this game.

The Los Angeles Lakers, who own the league's No. 1, challenged the Western powerhouse Portland Trail Blazers away.

On the one hand, there are potential rookies in Los Angeles led by LeBron and Rondo, and on the other hand, Portland's backcourt double guns composed of Lillard and McCollum.

Although the Blazers are not as powerful as the Rockets, Warriors, and Thunder, they have always been regular visitors to the Western Conference playoffs.

Core leader Lillard is known as the most underrated star point guard.

The duel between two powerful offensive teams, sparks hit the earth.

However, the situation on the field made everyone unexpected.

Los Angeles, which sent its main force to play, trailed by 20 points in the early three quarters, and gave up resistance before halfway through the fourth quarter.

The massacre that originally belonged to the Portlanders is now suspenseful again, and the momentum is completely on the side of the Lakers.

Los Angeles fans witnessed a rising star through live TV, and the "little man" named Lin Feng saved the team by himself.

Before the free throw line, Lin Feng seemed full of confidence. He signaled Wagner and Kuzma, who were about to grab offensive rebounds under the basket, to go back to defend, and there was no need to compete for offensive rebounds.

There is no more stable way to score than free throws. According to the rules, there are five seconds for free throws, and he has enough time to adjust his shooting posture to make the ball fall into the net.
