Chapter 156 The real No. 1 in the West!(1/2)

(A ten thousand words of big seal, monthly tickets were exposed. Please give the monthly tickets to the fisherman, please!)

"Lin, what do you want to do, kid? You are really afraid of Richmond, are you?"

To be honest, the Jazz played so frustratedly in this game against the King, and it felt speechless. In the past decade, when did they face the King become like this? At least they have not encountered such a situation in their careers in Stockton and Malone. {

Although the team is not in good condition now, the Kings can indeed pose some threat to them, but it is just a threat. They really didn't think about losing in this game?!

At least, isn’t the team still Lin Han? Lin Han is now a superstar player in the league, while Richmond is just a quasi-superstar player. What is a superstar and what is a quasi-superstar? Simply put, although a quasi-superstar is one of the top stars, one person cannot change the situation of the game. These players cannot lead the team to a long-term record, just like the Kings today. Although the team has a quasi-superstar and a group of good young players and role players, their results are always the same as the bottom.

A superstar team, even if other players are really not good, even if the team cannot enter the playoffs, their record will definitely not be a bottom. A superstar is a player who changes the team's long-term record and can be the cornerstone of the team.

This is also why although Malone and Stockton knew that the team would have some difficulties in the future, they were not afraid of these difficulties because of Lin Han's rise. At least, the Lakers and Bucks were unable to find a superstar like Lin Han to lead the way after fighting for the bullets. So Stockton and Malone and even Jerry Sloan never thought that their team would have a record of six games, four or five games, because Lin Han's strength can already become the cornerstone player of the team, and even if Malone and Stockton are in poor form now, it will not be useless, or they are worse than the role players of other teams.

Therefore, the Jazz all believed that the team might encounter some difficulties, but they would definitely win. Because they really believed in Lin Han. According to Aili's meaning, the Jazz's record in the first 33 games in history was 22 wins and 11 losses. In other words, because of Lin Han, they won 11 more games, and although the data was dead, Lin Han's previous performance was indeed obvious to all.

This super rookie who saved them many times before. This game will actually be played like this. In this case, when everyone in the Jazz entered the locker room, Stockton Malone or Jerry Sloan were really puzzled, very puzzled. Why did Lin Han do this?

However, in the face of these teammates' doubts, Lin Han naturally cannot say that although his strength has reached the standard of a superstar. However, when it comes to the ability to drive the team, he is even inferior to the team's substitute guard Humphries. And Lin Han can only achieve the way he leads the team through his own single work. If he can kill the opponent alone, it is naturally excellent. If he can't kill the opponent, he will die. Although Lin Han is young and has a cancer in his playing style, he has never been a fool.

"Lin, John has been preparing to give up the ball recently. You guy is still so humble. Don't compete with me in the game in the future."

Of course, although Lin Han's performance in the first half was indeed a bit different from Lin Han's usual appearance. In the past, Stockton would grab the ball if he didn't give it to the ball, and he wished that Stockton would pass it to him without a single ball. But this time, Lin Han had never even moved, which surprised Malone, who had been "open and secretly fighting" with Lin Han on the court for the ball rights.

"Okay, you need to say nothing, I think Lin should have his own plans."

Although Lin Han's performance in the first half made his teammates a little dissatisfied. Although Lin Han regarded Richmond as a defensive player in the first half, Lin Han is not a role player. He not only needs to work hard on the defensive end, but also lead the team on the offensive end. However, for Jerry Sloan, although he also has high requirements for Lin Han, he is still relatively rational. Since he is still working hard on the defensive end in this game, it means that he has not given up on the game and is just random. As for why this kid who has never been obedient does this, he can only watch the subsequent game.

If it really doesn't work, you will lose. The Jazz completely relaxed and started to take a break. This is actually quite good.

Of course, in the Jazz's locker room at this time, although the Jazz players were a little dissatisfied with Lin Han's performance, they were not very intense, but on the King's side, it was extremely intense.

But this intensity is not that the Kings players do not blame each other or anything, but that almost all of these Kings players are shouting excitedly. If this team that has been in the lottery zone for more than ten years can end the Jazz's winning streak today, then this game will be the most honorable moment for the team in the past decade. Yes, the most glorious and glorious moment.

So apart from Richmond, whether it is the team's head coach or other players, they are almost excited at this time, as if they have seen the team's hope of winning, and the hope is extremely huge.

As for what Richmond was doing at this time?

The Kings' head player is undergoing physical therapy from a physiotherapist!

In the first half, Richmond did not make many moves, just 14 times, but the energy consumed by these 14 moves is tiring than he usually takes 20 moves or even more than 20 moves, because each move is almost twice as expensive as he used to consume.

Lin Han's defense is really excellent, yes, too outstanding. At least in Richmond's opinion, there are not many players in the league who can lock himself in the defensive end, or they can't do it except Jordan, Payton and Pippen, and others. Jordan will not completely give up on offense when facing him to defend him, because this is too disgraceful for Jordan and too respect him. As for Pippen, Richmond basically can't touch this second master every time he faces the Bulls, and Payton. Although this kid is said to have extremely comprehensive defensive skills, Richmond basically won't be afraid of this glove because he believes in his diverse offensive methods.

At least this glove can't do what Lin Han did in this game. Whether it's back, running without the ball, pulling out of the outside, or voting and mid-range jumpers, basically, everything that Richmond can do seems to be unable to escape Lin Han's palm shape.

That's right, it just can't escape Lin Han's palm. He felt like he was firmly held in the palm of his hand.

The appearance of this feeling made him extremely panic, who believed that he was already the No. 1 shooting guard in the West.

Even if his team was leading at this time, his coach and teammates were extremely satisfied with his performance. But he was still extremely panicked because in the eyes of his teammates and coaches, everything on the court was under their control, and Lin Han was under the control of Richmond.

But Richmond knew that he didn't control Lin Han at all!

"No matter what tricks this kid wants to play in this game, I must win this game!"

Isn’t three years of persistence and three seasons of diligence and hard work just to get the recognition and recognition of the number one in the West? He will never give up this opportunity, because it is also a chance for him that only once in his life!

Richmond, whose chest was rising and falling rapidly, had become extremely strong at this time.

At this time, different things were happening in the locker rooms of the Jazz and Kings. At this time, on the court, because no one thought that the Jazz would play so hard in the first half, the Jazz fans who were planning to have a carnival were basically silent at this time. Even David Stern, who was watching the game on the spot, and some other former NBA legend players were almost the same at this time.

Since the Jazz played against the Suns more than a week, Lakers General Manager Jerry West, who has been with the Jazz like David Stern, was also a little silent. However, the Lakers' godfather's eyes were sharp in his eyes, and he seemed to be thinking about something. I don't know if he was a little uncertain, so the general manager of the Lakers' general manager's sharp expression flashed a little.

"If this was all carefully designed by him, then this kid would be so interesting and could even give everything for him!"

When he thought of this, Jerry West silently thought in his heart that it was never something he could do easily to introduce Lin Han to the Lakers. Lin Han is not a free agent. Although the Jazz have no money, they will not easily attack Lin Han, so he needs a lot of chips to get Lin Han.

Although he really wanted Lin Han, he was unwilling to send some chips to Lin Han before this because some chips were prepared for some other players. However, as Lin Han performed better and better, Jerry West discovered that Lin Han had become his first choice, and even his biggest chip seemed to be considered for Lin Han.

Thinking of the NBA prosperous era two years later, if he throws out that chip, Lin Han will never refuse, and Jazz will never refuse. However, it depends on whether Lin Han's growth can reach that step!

"I hope you don't let me down!"

Looking at Lin Han who walked out of the player channel with his team again, Jerry West muttered to himself with some anticipation on his face.

"The second half is about to begin, Larry, do you think the performance of the two teams in the second half will change from the first half?"

To be honest, this game is not a wonderful game. What kind of exciting game can a team that has exhausted its energy and a team with a bottom NBA team play? There is basically no structure in tactics. The Jazz has the energy and execution ability but does not complete these structures and execution ability, while the King has the energy but does not have the execution ability and the structure. Simply put, the two teams were playing randomly in the first half.

If it weren't for such a game that was popular superstar like Lin Han and the Jazz's expectation of winning streak, then there was basically no need to expect the ratings. Even as the commentator of this game, Collins was a little disliked for such a game, especially when his favorite player Lin Han had not yet performed.

“There will be changes.”

When the two teams walked to the court again and the game officially started, Larry Bird also said with a smile.

He saw further than Collins at this time. Especially when he saw Lin Han bent down and tied his shoelaces again when he was on the court, he had already cleared all the fog in his heart.

Although the Jazz's performance in the first half of this game can be described as crazy and terrible, at least it is the Jazz home court and I love this team's Jazz fans very much, so after the game started, the Jazz fans on the scene were already cheering for the team.

After all, there are still many fans who hope that the team will change after the game restarts. At least most Jazz fans really hope that Lin Han will explode in the second half. Because judging from Lin Han’s defense against Richmond in the first half, Lin Han’s physical fitness and condition are not a problem, so Jazz fans really have great expectations for Lin Han.

But when the second half of the game started again, let alone these Jazz fans were really confused at this time, even the Jazz head coaches Jerry Sloan, Larry Bird and Jerry West on the sidelines were stunned.

Because after the game started, Lin Han's first thing was nothing else. He was still madly pestering Richmond. He was almost inseparable from Richmond. Lin Han ran wherever Richmond went. The suffocating defense even made Kings coach Gary Saint Jean sweat for Richmond. I have to say that the Jazz's rookie's defense is really good. Although it is not as good as master-level defense like Pippen, it can definitely be considered first-class or even first-class in the league.

"I didn't expect that this kid is also an all-round player, but he is still a little too young, because he can defeat us by defending himself? Is it naive. It's so naive!"

Although the Kings' head coach seemed to appreciate Lin Han, he was not worried about Lin Han's crazy attack on Richmond. He now wished that Lin Han and Richmond both came down from the court and turned this game into a battle between the other players of the two teams, which was the best.

"Am I really guessed wrong? This kid doesn't have that idea?"

After the start of the second half, Lin Han's still consistent game situation really made Larry Bird feel a little embarrassed. You girl, just now, she said to fans across the United States with a certain look on her face and said Lin Han would definitely change in the second half, but now? This kid has played half of the game in the third quarter and is still pestering Richmond.

At this time, Richmond was almost tangled by Lin Han and almost cried. Richmond really followed the team's head coach's meaning and suppressed Lin Han on the offensive end, which made him shoot a lot in this game, but he made very few shots.

Since joining the NBA, Richmond has never played like this game. He remembers that the most iron game in his career should be the game against the Celtics a month ago this season. Facing the Celtics, he made 11 of 31 games, scored 34 points, and scored 20 games in one game.

It doesn't seem to be that many. After all, in this era, it's normal for an inside line like Malone to hit 20 times in a game. Not to mention career, Malone's number of hits exceeded 20 times this season was not less than three games. Lin Han was the same. During the most ironclad period of Lin Han this season, which game was less than 20 times?

It can be said that as one of the best shooting guards in the league, Richmond has always been a very rational player on the court. From all the scores in his career, no game was super high and 24 shots. Before the game against the Celtics, this guy made no 30 shots in a game.

In this case, he made 3 of 14 in the half of the game, and half of the third quarter. When the official timeout was suspended, he made 1 of 5 shots, which combined into 4 of 19 shots. Such a game even reminded him of his time at the Warriors. At that time, he was still in the second grade. Facing Jane Humphries who was at the peak at that time, he was completely defeated by Humphries. Who is Humphries? It is the guy named "Long Hanjie" sitting on the Jazz bench now. Five years ago, Richmond, who was still a little boy, made 6 of 23 shots in that game. Although he scored 24 points in the whole game, he made 17 shots, while Humphries had 29 points, 9 assists, 9 rebounds and 5 steals. He was simply a god descending to earth. If Humphries was really that bad, the Jazz would not have given him such a high salary, although this player who was like a god back then was already useless at this time.

But even if he was strong back then, he would have been the whole game at least. In today's game, he only took more than half of the game and made 4 of 19 shots, and he wanted to catch up with the game that was extremely ashamed of him.

And. Damn, Humphries, who humiliated him last time, sat on the Jazz's bench at this time, which has to be said that the King and the Jazz are really destined to be together.

When the official timeout of the third quarter of the game was suspended, and when the game started again, both Jerry Sloan and Larry Bird gave up, and the Jazz fans on the sidelines had no hope, and the group of American journalists on the sidelines had already started dancing.

Lin Han, who was on the court again, did something that was extremely incredible to everyone in the game. When the Jazz served on the sideline, Aaron Williams was preparing to send the ball to Stockton, Lin Han on the court actually asked Aaron Williams for the ball!

"Aron, give me the ball"

A very simple sentence. At this time, Stockton saw Lin Han asking for the ball, and after being stunned, he nodded directly at Aaron Williams.

At this time, Stockton almost had the urge to cry. He had been waiting for this time for too long. This game was definitely the most uncomfortable game in Stockton's career. He had the idea of ​​giving up the ball for the first time in this game, but he found that no one around was willing to take it. Now, Lin Han finally took action.

So, when the pass from Linhan near the sideline of the middle circle received Aaron Williams slowly dribbled the ball to the top of the arc, although Richmond was a little stunned at this time, he still stood on the top of the arc.

When Lin Han came to him, the king's chief defender was already facing a great enemy.

Because this was the first time Lin Han faced him. He was attacking Lin Han before. He had always been attacking Lin Han. He originally thought that Lin Han would not have much energy to attack in this game, but when Richmond saw that although Lin Han's jersey was soaked in sweat, his heartbeat was normal, his face was normal, the King's defender suddenly thought of a very terrible idea.

"This is absolutely impossible, I'm definitely thinking too much!"

Seeing Lin Han, who was not far away from him, was constantly changing the frequency and cross-dribbling in place, Richmond thought of his thoughts and his face almost changed a few times.

"What a beautiful dribble"

"Lin Han's ball control skills are really excellent!"

At this time, watching Lin Han dribble at the same time changing rhythm, even Malone and Stockton on the side were extremely surprised. In their impression, Lin Han was a player with a bad left hand. Not to mention controlling the ball, Lin Han Tu rarely used ordinary shooting and layups.

At this time, Lin Han was able to play such tricks against Richmond, one of the strongest shooting guards in the league, so even Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan shook his head. He is now used to the new tricks that keep appearing like Lin Han.

"Do you want to change direction and break through? Even Tim Hardaway doesn't want to pass by me smoothly!"

As a former Warriors player, he and Tim Hardaway have been teammates for two years. At that time, Tim Hardaway averaged 23+10 games, he averaged 24+6+3 games, and Chris Mullin averaged 26+5+4 games. The three of them were called the most terrifying outside trio in the league in the 90-91 season.

Imagine how three outside players who averaged more than 22 points per game would be in a team.

Tim Hardaway is the league's current king of change directions. Even if Tim Hardaway is training in the team, it will be difficult for him to get rid of him, let alone Lin Han? Lin Han's height changes, can he play faster than Tim Hardaway? Naturally impossible!

So when he saw Lin Han wanting to play the role of changing direction, Richmond almost subconsciously gave a moment of contempt, and all the bad thoughts that had arisen in his mind were cleared.

Even if Lin Han really wants to make him consume a lot of physical fitness on the offensive end and his strength on the defensive end is greatly reduced, he doesn't think Lin Han can defeat him with a change of direction!

"I'll win this game!"

Richmond's heart once again ignited a huge fighting spirit.

"Lin Han seemed to take it for granted. Didn't he know the intersection between Richmond and Tim Hardaway?"

When Lin Han saw that his cross dribble was getting faster and faster, basically everyone understood what Lin Han wanted to do. Whether it was crossing the ball under the crotch or crossing the ball in front of him, it was basically for the purpose of changing direction. Because this was the starting action!

So, after Collins finished speaking, Lin Han moved almost at the same time. When Lin Han stepped out like a right span, Richmond moved almost immediately.

"It's so simple! Do you think I'll be fooled?"

Looking at this very similar action, even if Richmond closed his eyes, he knew that it was a fake action. Those young people who had never seen the world would be fooled, but he could not be fooled. So when Lin Han was indeed boring and pulled the ball back with his right hand to go to his left hand, the king's head defender almost laughed in his heart.

"How is this possible?!"

But when he pounced on Lin Han's left, when Lin Han swung the right with a high speed again, he almost took a big step and threw Richmond away more than one meter away. At this time, Richmond, who was lost, tripped at his feet and knelt on one knee on the ground.
