Chapter 233 OJ Mayo's Star Card
During the holiday break, Old Brown prevented anyone from disturbing Lin Sa. Although the Pistons wanted to know what happened to their favorite mascot, Lin Sa's style of play was obviously problematic, but Old Brown didn't explain, nor did he intend to change the roster. He just asked the staff for a ball and threw it to Lin Sa, and then he didn't say anything.

Lin Sa still didn't sweat or feel fatigued. This skill was really awesome, but he could see that his stamina had bottomed out. Lin Sa's stamina wasn't bad, but with the weight gain and a lot of running and jumping, even if he wasn't physically capable, he couldn't survive this style of play. Lin Sa's ability to persist until now was already the fifth miracle.

Although Lin Sa was beaten by Anthony without drawing cards, even so, Lin Sa was very excited, holding the basketball and laughing like a fool. This was the first time he had hoped to compete with Anthony on the same platform with his own strength.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Anthony's offense was infinitely close to the highest level in the current league, and compared to the superficially beautiful Lin Sa, Anthony's physical strength is really sufficient. Although he is already sweating until now, his breathing is not very disturbed. The impact of fatigue on him is within the controllable range.

In fact, if the score wasn’t too close, the Nuggets’ coach would have wanted to replace Anthony. It’s meaningless to continue playing like this.

It doesn't make sense, it's for him as a coach, for Lin Sa, for Anthony, this game is very meaningful!

There is no need to reserve physical strength. In the fourth quarter, Anthony broke out with all his strength, dribbling like flowing water and like a strong wind. For the first time, Lin Sa's defense felt that he could not keep up with Anthony. When everyone pulled away, Anthony single-core dunked under the basket, showing his mighty and invincible brutal offensive power.

In terms of stamina in the game, Lin Sa couldn't compare to Anthony, but now, what Lin Sa wants has been formed, dribbled the ball beyond the Nuggets' three-point line, Lin Sa passed Anthony in one step, and then directly took the high position to pull up. Anthony still took off desperately in the stream of consciousness. He surpassed Lin Sa, knowing that Lin Sa's shooting was flat and flat, and he had a chance.

However, this time, Anthony really didn't have a chance. Lin Sa's shot was very decisive, with an amazing speed, and the trajectory of the ball was also very fast. Anthony was almost like a finger stretched out by the wind and waves brought by the basketball. He hit a three-pointer from a super long distance!

At this moment, with the hit of the ball, Lin Sa's temperament changed. In the eyes of the live audience and VIP audience, Lin Sa regained his noble and domineering aura as one of the youngest all-stars in history.

It's really... difficult.

Anthony was not intimidated by Lin Sa, and continued to rush forward after catching the ball. It is common sense that the shooting rate of 3 points is always lower than that of 2 points.

Under the explosive Anthony's attack, Lin Sa really couldn't stop him. Lin Sa even suspected that if the zone defense didn't necessarily restrict Anthony now, this guy who completely liberated his offensive ability, even in his youth, is as strong as a monster, which is truly terrifying.

The game was still going on, but Lin Sa suddenly had a brainstorm. If Anthony was not on a bad team like the Nuggets, but on a team with an extremely good zone defense like the Jazz with a generation of famous coaches, whether he could achieve reinforcements. Just thinking about it, Lin Sa felt terrible and couldn't go down this road.

It’s not that Anthony lacks defense. What he lacks is the defensive tendon. If you give him a defense tower like Kirilenko or Stoudemire under the zone defense system, you don’t need to be strong. As long as you have excellent athletic ability, can make up for Anthony’s defensive position, and give full play to his offensive talent, then Anthony will be terrible.

In the last quarter, the tie is already in sight. Even if the game is lost, as long as the score can be tied, it will be Anthony's victory. Now Anthony has gone crazy, playing like a storm, Lin Sa can't think of any possible restrictions.

If it can't be stopped, Lin Sa won't be able to stop it anymore, everyone will just see who falls first.

Outside the Nuggets line, Lin Sa took a step away, followed by three-pointers with one goal after another. On the other side, Anthony's various offensive methods formed a gust of wind, tearing Lin Sa's defensive space and contributing violent offenses again and again.

Generally speaking, after changing the style of play, Anthony's hit rate remained at more than [-]%, Lin Sa's hit rate was about [-]%, and the rest were mistakes or iron strikes.

Anthony has a higher shooting percentage, but the gap in scoring has not widened. Lin Sa has been throwing three-pointers recklessly. Anthony's defensive ability is really bad, so Lin Sa gets one more point every time, and the more time passes, Lin Sa's shots are as if they were measured with a ruler, and they are not bad.

The battle situation fell into anxiety, and the point difference was shaking back and forth at about 6 points. The audience and players on the court were quietly waiting for the end of the storm.

At 4 minutes and 12 seconds into the fourth quarter, Lin Sa's stamina pool bottomed out. For a moment, Lin Sa felt his eyes darken. He made a mistake, was intercepted by Anthony, and then dunked. The point difference was narrowed to 4 points.

Wiping off the uncontrollable sweat that started to flow out, Lin Sa decisively used a spare stamina pool that had been kept all along.

Star card: OJ Mayo.

This card is very suitable for the current Lin Sa. All aspects of ability are online. It is not top-notch but it is definitely not bad. It is neither long nor short. It is just right to use against Anthony!

Lin Sa's mistakes made Old Brown feel worried, the intensity was too great, Lin Sa's improvement was huge, but under this huge improvement, whether Lin Sa's body could handle it was also a question. After all, he was only 19 years old, far from the maturity of a player.

But... Lin Sa's next attack reassured Old Brown.

Lin Sa did not continue to shoot three-pointers this time. In this heads-up, Anthony won, but he wanted to bring the victory back to Detroit.

Mayo's card provides Lin Sa with all-round qualities. This card is actually very good. Compared with other superstars and James, although the gap is not small, it wins in all aspects, and there is no particularly big shortcoming.

Cooperating with Lin Sa's several abilities, Lin Sa's combat power instantly recovered to full value. This time, borrowing Mayo's star card, Lin Sa showed a wave of high and low speed changes. This is a trick Anthony used before.

Originally, Lin Sa's sense of the ball would not be able to use this kind of skill. After the Mayoka, Lin Sa could use it. After throwing away Anthony, Lin Sa easily pushed the ball into the basket.

Anthony's offense is still terrible, but physical strength is not something that can be created out of nothing. Unless it is used up, Anthony also played all four quarters.

Lin Sa started from the three-point line of the Pistons, and kept giving Anthony strength, not seeking to defend, but seeking to reduce the scoring rate of Youth Gua and increase his physical exertion.

The rhythm returned to Lin Sa's hands, and Lin Sa, who was fully recovered, seemed to have returned to the peak in an instant. He was omnipotent in the world, and showed comprehensive scoring skills in all directions, high and low backs, breakthroughs, crossovers, speed changes, three-pointers, two-pointers, Lin Sa used all the offensive methods he could think of.

Anthony is indeed tired and sweating. He is young and can be blamed on individuals, but he is not a physical monster like James after all.

One went up and down, Anthony's efficiency dropped, and Lin Sa's various indexes continued to rise. Two minutes before the end of the game, the point difference widened to 2 points again.
