Chapter 191 Lin Yue, I'm Just My Apprentice (please subscribe, ask for a monthly pass)
Looking back, Lin Yue took advantage of Ibaka's high-quality screen to step back and make a three-pointer.
Aim, tuck in, take off, shoot.
"Shua!" A three-pointer was hit.
Even Durant and Curry off the court waved towels, and the audience on the scene even cheered.
As Lin Yue's roommates, Curry and Durant know how much effort this guy has put in to practice three-pointers.
Are people not inert?
The answer is yes, but there is a dream in front of him, the long-awaited stage to finally stand on the stage, Lin Yue does not want to miss this opportunity.
He spends more time on three-point drills than physical training.
Lin Yue knew his own shortcomings, and he also knew where he needed to improve, so he improved little by little.
There are too many failures, and the pictures of the past are burned in my mind, and I can't forget them.
He doesn't want to always fail at the finishing touches.
34 to 34, Phil Jackson, who was still calm in front, immediately called a timeout.
The time is almost up, and he wants to replace Kobe and other starters.
"You guys have to do a good job of attacking when you go up, run more, don't miss people, counterattack when you have the opportunity, and observe the opponent's defensive loopholes..." After explaining some things, Phil Jackson replaced Gasol, Kobe, and Metta World Peace, replacing Wharton, Vujacic, and Bynum.
This adjustment allows the Lakers to increase their offensive speed.
Brooks also replaced Curry and Durant, and replaced Livingston and Sefolosha.
The Thunder will use offense to open up the score against the Lakers.
Zen Master is very clear that containing the Thunder's offense is the key to victory.
Throughout the second half of the second quarter, he did not replace Bynum again. The Thunder's lineup is very fast, and he also needs to make corresponding adjustments.
Bynum was only on the court for a short time, and he was not happy. He sat on the bench sullenly and groaned. Doesn't this behavior prove that he looked down on his strength? Even for a weak insider like the Thunder, he didn't get a chance to play.
But what's the use of this? The Lakers really appreciate Bynum's talent and want to train him well, but the star of this team is Kobe Bryant, and the center is All-Star Gasol.
If he wants to scrimmage the ball, he has to look at his own ability. With Bynum's professional attitude, the Lakers have thought about replacing him.
Of course, personality is personality, and Bynum's strength lies here. Although the Lakers management does not have the "logo man" West, they still understand what players are helpful to the team.
In the second half of the second quarter, Kobe returned to the court. After a short break, his speed improved again. Unfortunately, the basket at the Ford Center Arena did not give him any face. After the entire second quarter, Kobe only scored 4 of 1 and scored two points.
But his own offense is not good, Kobe still contributed in other areas, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block, and helped the team in other ways.
The Thunder's offense was impressive. Curry's counter-run cut put a lot of pressure on the Lakers. Farmar finally ushered in a point guard who was about the same height as him, but the opponent's running position made his scalp numb.
A cover is lost.
The key point is that Lin Yue's organizational ability was demonstrated at this time. The fans were dazzled by several fancy passes, and the atmosphere of the scene also reached a climax.
After Kobe came up, Lin Yue didn't need to hang singles, Ibaka, Durant and Curry, this one ball is not enough for them, it is enough to organize themselves.
Kobe is a distress, but no matter how strong his single-defense skills are, it is impossible to directly block the opponent's pass.
This is not some kind of superpower basketball. He can predict the route of the ball. He blocks the passing route from one side, and Lin Yue passes it to the other side.
With the atmosphere at home and the blessing of luck, the Thunder successfully overtook their opponents in this quarter, leading by 8 points in a single quarter, with a total score of 51 to 48 leading by 3 points and entering the second half.
Even though they overtook the score, the Thunder still lost to their opponents in the paint. After Gasol played in the second quarter, he made 3 of 3 shots and never missed a shot. He scored 6 points and 3 rebounds in a single quarter. If it wasn't him, the score at this time would be even higher.
Lin Yue scored 8 points, 7 assists and 4 rebounds in the first half. The statistics were not explosive but they were all-round, especially the go-between pass in the second half of the second quarter, which was too pleasing to the eye.
"It's no wonder that the Thunder's game is good. Compared with other teams, they don't pay so much attention to defense and focus on offense. This kind of offense is a bit like the Lakers' 'Showtime' period, and it's a bit like the Kings in the past few years. They are also offensive performances. They all seem to enjoy it. How much surprise this team can bring us." Barkley said.
"The main problem for the Lakers right now is that star Kobe Bryant doesn't feel very good. If he is fully fired, the Thunder's defense will be unstoppable. However, the Thunder's offense is really good-looking. Lin Yue's playing ideas are very smart. He conducts in the starting lineup and finishes in the substitute lineup. It is his joining that gives the Thunder a new look." Kenny Smith shared Barkley's opinion, and he also commented on many games.
The impact of Lin Yue's arrival is intuitive. No wonder the Thunder said before the lottery that they would choose Lin Yue instead of Griffin if they won the lottery. Now it seems that Presti's vision is indeed good.
Lin Yue is shining brightly these days, but Griffin is reimbursed for the season. Although I don't know how strong a healthy Griffin can be, a healthy Lin Yue is standing on the court.
"That's right, Lin Yue is my apprentice, so I know his strength." Barkley said proudly.
The facial expression gives people the impression that come and praise me, the apprentices I have taught are amazing.
"Your apprentice?" Kenny Smith questioned, which was also a question from the audience, and how did this statement come out.
"That's right, Lin Yue will learn skills from me during the offseason, and I will teach him personally, isn't that an apprentice?"
"What can he learn from a fat man like you by playing as a defender?" Kenny Smith didn't doubt Barkley's words. Since the fat pig dared to say this, it proved that it was true.
It's just that Kenny Smith doesn't understand what Lin Yue can learn from Barkley. An athlete who plays with his butt, his success cannot be imitated by others.
"I know so much, how can you question a Hall of Famer?"
Then, during the halftime break, Barkley started bragging again, causing everyone to be speechless, and Kenny Smith cast a contemptuous look.
During the halftime break, the Lakers had a heated discussion on the bench. Bynum believed that without him, the team would find it difficult to take advantage of the inside.
