NBA: I have 3 but no D, and I still can’t dribble.
Chapter 130 Defensive attribute 97, blocking Garnett head-on!
Seeing Lin Fei coming up, he quickly hit a three-pointer, and it was also a very difficult and elegant jump shot.
The fans in the Pepsi Center Arena burst into cheers and applause in an instant.
Even in Denver, a small plateau city in the middle of the United States, Lin Fei's fame has now spread throughout the fan base.
Although Lin Fei won this year's All-Star vote, it has a lot to do with the bonus of Chinese fans and the results of collective voting.
But no matter what, the historical vote king is the historical vote king after all. Coupled with Lin Fei's top five jersey sales in the league, it is enough to prove that at least in terms of influence,
Lin Fei has joined the first echelon of active stars in the league today.
"Lin's three-point shot is so accurate. He will never disappoint at critical moments!"
"Lin is really a big-hearted player, which is seriously inconsistent with his age. I even feel that he is a veteran who has played in the league for more than ten years. He is more calm than Kobe and McGrady!"
"It seems that if the Eastern Conference wants to come back at the last minute, it has to rely on Lin's three-pointer. I won't say whether it's good to watch or not, but the point chasing is really amazing!"
While everyone was talking, the situation on the court suddenly changed again.
Lin Fei, who returned to the defensive end, was focused and active, showing his super high-level single-defense strength, which made Kobe's post-up singles very uncomfortable.
From Christmas to the All-Star Game, Lin Fei's defensive attributes further improved during this period.
Although after reaching 90+, the free attribute points required to increase the defensive attribute by one point also doubled,
But after all, it was only two months, so Lin Fei's defensive attributes also slowly increased to 97 points, which was infinitely close to 99.
According to the current progress, by the end of the regular season at the earliest, Lin Fei's defensive attributes will reach 99 points, so that he can finally start to unlock attributes such as dribbling or passing.
Complementing the improvement in defensive attributes is Lin Fei's current personal physical fitness.
Whether it is speed, strength or weight and endurance, there has also been a significant improvement.
In the back-to-back confrontation with Kobe, Lin Fei has been able to basically offset his strength. Whether it is upper limb or lower limb strength, Lin Fei has now reached the mid-level level in the league.
"Bang, bang!"
Kobe held the ball behind his back and gritted his teeth. He pushed Lin Fei hard twice, but found that he couldn't push him back at all.
He continued to feint and test his feet, hoping to shake Lin Fei's defensive focus, but it was still in vain.
Peter Pan suddenly felt a turmoil in his heart. Less than two months had passed since the Christmas War. Lin Fei's strength and defense level had improved so significantly?
Wade, McGrady and others, who opened up the space, saw that Lin Fei's single-handed defense against Kobe was almost airtight and death-wrapped, and they were also very amazed in their hearts.
This defensive ability can be said to be at the textbook level.
The most shocked person was Steve Nash. Seeing Lin Fei’s divine improvement in defense, and then comparing it with his own defensive attributes that have always been neglected for many years,
If Lin Fei really came to the Suns to partner with him during the offseason, how terrifying would it be?
Seeing that the attack time was about to come, Kobe clenched his teeth and feinted with his back, then suddenly turned in the opposite direction, leaned back sharply and took a shot.
Lin Fei rushed to the defense quickly and successfully interfered with Kobe's shot.
"Bang!"
The ball missed, and at the last moment of the All-Star Game, with the attention of hundreds of millions of fans around the world, Lin Fei completed a textbook-level perimeter defense against Kobe.
Before the fans could marvel, the Eastern Stars quickly launched a counterattack.
After Iverson got the ball, he fully demonstrated his lightning speed, dribbling quickly into the frontcourt.
After all, it was just an All-Star game, so even at the last minute, the star team's defense was still not highly focused enough.
Kobe Bryant became the last barrier for the Western Conference Stars. Seeing Iverson about to get to the basket and score easily, he did not hesitate and let Lin Fei go to intercept Allen Iverson.
"Whoosh!"
Lin Fei accelerated and reversed and ran out of space, while Iverson also had a tacit understanding with Lin Fei, turning over and passing the ball out quickly.
A superstar is always a superstar. Even though Iverson is not good at passing and organizing, he still observes the situation on the court all the time during the fast break.
Lin Fei, who caught the ball, faced Nash who was rushing up quickly. Without any hesitation, he quickly took off and took a lightning shot.
"Shh!"
the seventh.
"Beep!"
When the ball went in, the buzzer sounded, and the referee signaled that Lin Fei's three-point goal was valid. At the same time, Steve Nash's shooting hitter was fouled, and he was given the opportunity to add one free throw.
Nash shook his head and smiled bitterly. At the critical moment of the high-end game, his defensive flaws were fully exposed.
Mike D'Antoni did not protect his beloved disciple. Taking advantage of this dead ball time, he quickly replaced Nash and replaced him with Ray Allen.
Ray Allen is at his peak during this period. In the Seattle SuperSonics and Lewis partnered with the Twin Stars, the SuperSonics have a pretty good record this season and are currently ranked third in the Western Conference.
Second only to the first-place Suns and the second-place Spurs.
The SuperSonics' ability to achieve such a good regular season record this season has indeed exceeded the expectations of many fans and experts.
Without Lin Fei, Ray Allen's performance in the past two seasons would definitely be called the ceiling of a three-point shooter.
The 29-year-old Ray Allen has also reached the peak of his physical, technical and experience. He is very balanced in both offense and defense.
"Shh!"
As Lin Fei went to the free throw line and hit the extra free throw, he also scored 7 points in a row after re-appearing, helping the Eastern Stars to a 7-0 run.
Eastern Stars (140): (142) Western Stars.
The score difference was quickly caught up to only 2 points.
The huge suspense of victory and defeat quickly returned.
"Lin's three-point shooting is really too strong. In these two offensive and defensive rounds just now, it can be said that Lin alone carried the Eastern Stars!"
"Two three-pointers on the offensive end, and successfully limited Kobe's shots on the defensive end. He shouldered both offense and defense. Lin is the ceiling of a 3D player!"
"Allen's pass assist just now was also very timely. It seems that the Eastern Star team also created a quite united atmosphere at the last moment!"
"The point difference has been chased down to 2 points. In the last two minutes, it depends on how the Western Stars respond!"
On the court, Kobe Bryant no longer stubbornly challenged Lin Fei this time. During the breakthrough, he passed the ball to Ray Allen at a 45-degree angle on the right.
Garnett's lift screen blocked Iverson's defense. Ray Allen plugged in and played, catching the ball and hitting three-pointers steadily.
"Shh!"
The Western Stars regained the lead to 5 points.
Wade came over and used O'Neal to cover and kill the basket, and scored the ball against Garnett's difficulty.
"Shh!"
The "Wolf King" turned around and cast a high-level iron-blooded shot, and there was one.
"Shh!"
The offensive firepower of Iverson and Wade successfully restrained the Western Stars' defense. Lin Fei took advantage of the outside screen and continued to run back. He once again got a good opportunity and took another pass from Wade.
"Shh!"
The eighth.
Lin Fei came on the court in the last 3 minutes of the final quarter, and Lin Fei made 3 consecutive three-pointers, making Kobe's pursuit of defense useless.
"Lin played so well. He was obviously better than the Black Mamba in both offense and defense at critical moments!"
"The point difference was once again caught up to 2 points. Lin has already scored 25 points, 10 of which he scored in the last two minutes!"
At the critical moment, the offensive efficiency of both teams was surprisingly high. The star players showed their talents and the fans enjoyed watching it.
Eastern Stars (145): (147) Western Stars.
On the timer, there is only the last 0 minutes and 59 seconds left.
Mike D'Antoni called a critical timeout.
Although the score is quite anxious, the next offense is also very important for the Western Stars.
But after all, there are a group of superstars in front of him. Naturally, D'Antoni can't show tactics to these team bosses like coaching the Suns.
Tonight Kobe has scored 32 points so far. He is the best player in the Western team. Garnett's 20+10 is also excellent.
Therefore, D'Antoni also knows the beauty of adulthood. At critical moments, the first offensive choice is still given to Kobe, and the second choice is Garnett, while McGrady and Ray Allen provide support on the wings.
Stan Van Gundy encourages everyone to defend well.
Feeling the tense atmosphere, the fans at the scene were also very excited and excited. This year's All-Star Game can really be said to be quite exciting.
"The stars really fought hard. It was a fight between gods. I feel that this year's All-Star Game is even better than the one in 2003!"
"Although 2003 was Michael's retirement season, many stars also performed wonderfully, and the two teams scored the most points in history, but I don't feel as shocked as this year!"
"After all, the final score difference in the 03 game was not so huge that it was indistinguishable. The Western Conference Stars also had a clear advantage, but tonight's game is different. Who will win in the end, we really can't tell until the end of the game!"
"Will there be a decisive blow? I have a hunch that there will probably be a decisive blow!"
"omg, Lin's three three-pointers brought back the suspense of the game! If the Eastern Star team succeeds in reversing the game, then Lin has every chance to be elected as the All-Star mvp!"
"Iverson has already scored more than 30 points, and Lin only has 25 points now, which is still a little less. If he hits another three-pointer, he may really be able to counterattack Iverson!"
Agent Qin Dongmei, who was sitting in the front row on the sidelines, was equally nervous at this time, praying in her heart that the Eastern Stars could come back successfully.
On the court, after a timeout, the Western Stars executed a key attack.
Ray Allen served Kobe from the sideline to Kobe at the top of the arc, and Lin Fei quickly moved in to defend.
Kevin Garnett took the initiative to move up to the top of the arc, intending to provide a pick-and-roll screen for Kobe.
Kobe used the screen to get rid of Lin Fei and planned to break through the basket, but Xiao Ou quickly switched defenses, and Lin Fei's pursuit around the screen was also very timely.
Seeing that he was about to be double-teamed, Kobe no longer obsessed with attacking on his own, but gave the ball to Garnett who was going down near the free throw line.
Lin Fei predicted Kobe's intention in advance, and quickly came back like lightning, switching defense in front of Garnett in an instant.
Facing the leader of last season's team, Lin Fei's defense was very timely this time. Facing Garnett's take-off shot, his ankle suddenly jumped up with power, and his long arm slammed down towards the basketball.
Garnett completely underestimated the progress of his old teammate on the defensive end. He never expected that Lin Fei could pounce on him and block his shot.
"Snapped!"
With a crisp sound, the basketball that just flew out of Garnett's fingertips was slammed down by Lin Fei's big hand.
"omg, Kenny, what on earth did I see? Lin actually blocked Kevin!"
"Lin's defense was so quick this time. Coming from the head-to-head competition between the two teammates who won the championship last season, this block must have been destined to be one of the top ten goals in this All-Star Game!"
Amidst the high-pitched and loud on-site commentary, the basketball dropped by Lin Feifan was quickly picked up by Kobe.
Seeing that the 24-second attack time was approaching, Kobe could only quickly take a three-pointer from the outside.
"Bang!"
Kobe shot the ball too hastily, and the sight was a lot worse. The basketball bounced out of the hoop, and the rebound was caught by O'Neal, who quickly gave Wade a fast break.
The Western Stars failed to complete the attack that ended the game at the last minute. Kobe and Garnett also quickly turned around and returned to defense. There were still 35 seconds left on the timer.
The suffocating atmosphere permeated every corner of the Pepsi Center Arena. Wade wanted to find Lin Fei in the counterattack fast break, but Kobe's pursuit was too tight.
So Wade faced McGrady, who was quickly returning to defense, and forced his way to the basket, and directly shot a difficult layup.
McGrady defended this ball very well and successfully interfered with Wade's shot.
The basketball circled twice on the rim, and finally fell out mischievously.
"Snapped!"
But Wade relied on his super high bounce speed to fly the ball one step ahead of McGrady.
Iverson, who followed up, just caught the ball, and Ray Allen's defense followed suit.
At the critical moment of suffocation, Iverson did not force a layup, but made a gorgeous dribble like a butterfly passing through flowers, and came out from the basket.
At this time, Lin Fei, who was on the outside line at a 30-degree angle on the right, suddenly used the cover of O'Neal with his horns raised, accelerated his run, and rushed directly towards the three-point line at the top of the arc.
With this sprint, Lin Fei came directly to the position close to the logo in the center circle, more than 12 meters away from the basket, and instantly lost the distance from Kobe.
When Kobe bypassed O'Neal's screen to catch up, he accidentally stepped on sweat stains on the floor, staggering and almost falling to the ground.
It was at this critical moment that Iverson did not hesitate. For the sake of the team's victory, he passed the ball with great force and accurately passed it to Lin Fei.
"Whoosh!"
After receiving a pass from Iverson for the second time, Lin Fei fully felt the trust of his teammates.
Other players have vacancies in this position, and perhaps no one thinks this will be a good opportunity for a quasi-lore.
But Lin Fei is completely different. His super long three-pointer has already become a conventional weapon.
Catch the ball, take off, raise the arm, press the wrist, shoot...
Lin Fei's shooting was already bruised in his bones, and his eyes were as cold as a sword, as if he was unsheathed.
"Shh!"
The moment the basketball hit the net, the time on the timer was also frozen at the last 0 minutes and 9 seconds.
"omg, the ninth one, Lin hit his ninth three-pointer tonight. He has already scored 9 points!"
"The Eastern Stars successfully took the lead by 1 point, and there are only the last 9 seconds left for the Western Stars!"
"Can the Western Conference All-Stars complete a buzzer beater in the last 9 seconds? Or will Lin's three-pointer become one of the most exciting near-wins in All-Star history?"
