Chapter 68 Accumulation of Contradictions ([-])

In the fierce battle with the Cavaliers, Lin Xiao was exhausted.Moreover, the extra training after the game made Lin Xiao feel sore after waking up the next day.

After Lin Xiao got dressed, he saw the breakfast Wang Yaning had prepared for him. He simply ate some and went to the training hall. The training camp usually starts at 8:[-] in the morning, but Lin Xiao arrived at [-]:[-] today.Larry Brown arrived at the arena early.In the last moment of the game against the Cavaliers yesterday, the players on the team were very tired, and they didn't mess around last night.

Today's players seem to be a little listless, and Larry Brown arranged some recovery training to explain the tactics against the Bucks.Because it is a back-to-back game, even a weak team like the Bucks cannot relax.

Time passed quickly, and soon at night, after the appearance ceremony, Lin Xiao stepped on the court again.But this time Larry Brown didn't give him a chance to perform. Lin Xiao didn't expect that because of yesterday's performance, he sat on the bench until the end of the first half.

He thought that he would not be able to play in the first quarter, at least he would be sent to play in the middle of the second quarter, but it turned out that more than half of the second quarter was played, and Larry Brown had no intention of replacing Lin Xiao on the court again.

The score on the court was very tight, but Stephen Jackson found some touch after hitting the iron continuously. The Bobcats, the defensive team, was like a steel cage, and the Bucks, the little elk, were jumping around inside. , There is no way to break free. According to Larry Brown's arrangement before the game, it is very simple, that is, cross-screen shots inside, and defensive counterattacks.

The defense of the Bobcats is based on defending the titans on the inside, and a group of people on the outside are very good at defending. Boris Dior's defense is too high inside. There is a problem, but the Bucks have no problem inside. The Bobcats are like this. It was very annoying and fought with the Bucks in the iron battle until the second half.

But even so, the score of the two sides reached 44:42, and the Bobcats were two points behind.

The Bucks are different from the Bobcats. They play a fast pace and fast break. Their breakthrough caused more damage to the Bobcats. However, the Bobcats were tired of returning to defense and were exhausted. Raymond Fey Leonton and Gerald Wallace are okay, Stephen Jackson has become a colander directly, after all, he is not young, and in terms of offense, the Bobcats mostly rely on him.Lin Xiao could only sit on the bench, from being as steady as a mountain to fidgeting, and finally wanted to jump up from the bench, pinching Larry Brown's neck and letting him replace him on the field.

Fortunately, Stephen Jackson couldn't hold on any longer, and sat on the bench panting heavily after the timeout. Larry Brown also saw Lin Xiao's impatience, so he replaced Lin Xiao on the field.Lin Xiao could be said to be suffocated, and he played very impatiently when he came up. First, he succeeded in stealing in a gambling style, and then succeeded in smashing and dunking vigorously.Fortunately, Gerald Wallace reminded, otherwise Lin Xiao would be even crazier. On the bench, the two veterans have been reminding Lin Xiao that he should observe the situation on the field and how to use the high-quality cover of his teammates.

Although Lin Xiao is doing very well now, there is still a distance between him and Stephen Jackson. On the defensive end, Lin Xiao hardly has much pressure, but on the offensive end, Lin Xiao seems to have some problems.Because when Lin Xiao was holding the ball, a double-teamer appeared in front of his face. As soon as Lin Xiao got the ball, he would be double-teamed, and so was Tyrus Thomas.

Fortunately, Lin Xiao controlled the ball and handed the ball to Tyrus Thomas. Thomas also encountered double-teaming. Tyrus Thomas had a problem handling the ball. He lost the ball and Lin Xiao never dared to pass the ball to him again. up.When Tyrus wants the ball, there will always be double-teams. He can't get the ball out in time.

Lin Xiao thinks about it or directs the tactics. Who knows that Terus Thomas suddenly has a misplaced position. Lin Xiao lobs the ball to Terus Thomas. Before Terus Thomas makes a shot, the referee's whistle sounds.Three seconds violation, attack three seconds
"Lin, you should have passed the ball to me earlier." Tyrus Thomas complained to Lin Xiao, and Lin Xiao waved his hand lightly to signal that he knew. In fact, there was no problem with Lin Xiao's pass just now, but he I didn't move in a low position.

And Jennings was also replaced, Derek Brown's delay had a problem, one step was passed, Muhammad guarded the inside, and the air confrontation greeted the Bucks players who entered the inside.But being called for a foul, Larry Brown's assistant coach shouted from the sidelines: "Pay attention to the defense! Defense, pay attention to the protection of the rebound."

Lin Xiao was not polite to Jennings, who had a slight liking for him. After a tactical move, he caught the ball at a 45-degree angle on the right wing and directly turned his back and made a jump shot.

But Lin Xiao didn't have such good luck. Lin Xiao came up just after halftime to double-team. Although Jennings and Charlie Bell were not tall, Lin Xiao still gave the ball to DJ Augustine. He took Charlie Bell to run around the field for a few laps, and still caught the ball on the right side, but it was passed to Muhammad, and Muhammad scored a layup.Adjusting his pace, just following Charlie Bell, Jennings rushed directly to the inner line of the Bobcats, as if he only had the basket in his eyes, but Lin Xiao had already set his sights on him, Lin Xiao let go of the defender, and the inner line helped defend , wanted to give Jennings a big hat, but Lin Xiao thought a little too simple, and Jennings suddenly scored a goal.Lin Xiao felt bad, and Charlie Bell made a three-pointer from the outside.
Lin Xiao’s choice made Larry Brown very unhappy. After Lin Xiao ran up and down a few times, with the help of the official timeout, Larry Brown replaced Lin Xiao. Lin Xiao’s performance did not satisfy him. It was the same ball just now, and Larry Brown, who didn't like to use rookies, was very unhappy with the ball just now.

"Lin, you didn't complete your tasks according to my arrangement. Although you played very well, I still like that you can throw more three-pointers. Of course, you can increase the inside cut appropriately, but it is not to blindly help prevent leaks. Lose the defender." Larry Brown was quite critical of Lin Xiao's non-tactical arrangement.

Lin Xiao was once again pressed on the bench by Larry Brown. Even though Stephen Jackson was not good on the court, Lin Xiao was still not sent to the court at the end of the third quarter. Stephen Jackson had already made 15 of 4 shots. 8 of 6 free throws, plus three assists.Lin Xiao was sitting distraught on the bench, and when Stephen Jackson finally picked up his fourth foul, Lin Xiao was finally able to play.In the last minute of the third quarter, Lin Xiao ran back and forth on the field twice, without even touching the ball.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Lin Xiao carefully observed the positioning of the Bucks players, and suddenly threw off the defender and ran out of space. Augustine's pass arrived as expected, and then Lin Xiao just wanted to make a shot, but found that a Lin Xiao was double-teamed, a little surprised, the ball was cut off, the Bucks made a fast break, scored two points, and the score was tied.Lin Xiao was singled by John Salmons on the defensive end. John Salmons' self-confidence was a little bit bursting. What puzzled Lin Xiao was that the referee whistled at this time.
"What are you doing?" Lin Xiao was a little depressed.

"Shooting foul, two free throws." This was the referee's gesture to the technical table. Lin Xiao was whistled again, and it was optional.Lin Xiao was a little puzzled, why did he keep holding on to himself? Brandon Jennings walked twice on the court just now and still didn't blow.This made Lin Xiao a little upset, but he didn't say much. Lin Xiao still played honestly based on the principle that more things are worse than less things.

When Lin Xiao took the ball to pass halftime, he was about to get inside with the help of a pick-and-roll, but he was suddenly attacked by three people. What the hell is this? Derek Brown, who adjusted his posture in the air and wanted to pass the ball, how could the Bucks make him do so, the long arm broke him, and a fast break was pulled down by Derek Brown.

Lin Xiao made another mistake
For the next 3 minutes, Lin Xiao struggled extremely. It was the first time he felt star-level defense. It was against Stephen Jackson and Gerald Wallace before. It was the first time Lin Xiao faced such a defensive intensity. Extremely uncomfortable, and then sent three mistakes again.He was replaced, and Lin Xiao scored 7 points, 1 assist and 5 turnovers. His performance was very poor.

In the end, the Bobcats lost the game with a gap of 84 points: 90 points, and Lin Xiao, who had the worst performance in this game, became the focus of the crusade by the media.After the game, Tyrus Thomas also complained to Lin Xiao that Lin Xiao didn't pass the ball to him all night, and Stephen Jackson mocked him for making so many turnovers. Fortunately, Gerald Wallace interrupted the two of them in time. broken thoughts.

Lin Xiao was a little disappointed, and he couldn't blame himself entirely, and Lin Xiao also wondered if his temper was a little easy-going.
