(I'm really sorry, Chapter 1 is delivered)

"Hahaha, Lin, when did you actually have such a terrifying judgment? The entire Trail Blazer was directly fooled by you."

"Yes, it's so interesting to see the expressions of the Trail Blazers players just got off the court. These guys were very arrogant before the game."

"However, they do have such strength. If Lin hadn't had the assistance of several times, I'm afraid we would have been caught off guard by this team in this game."

When the official timeout of the first quarter came, the Jazz starter who came down from the court was very excited at this time. He was able to lead the Trail Blazers by 14 points in the half-quarter game. Although this does not guarantee that the Jazz will definitely win, such a huge advantage has indeed been established.**

It is very important for the Jazz to establish such a huge advantage. At least for young people who are playing in the playoffs for the first time, the team can reduce pressure if they can gain such a big advantage.

So, when the Jazz starters returned to the bench, not only these starters were very happy, but the Jazz players on the bench were the same.

Of course, it is completely different from the Jazz, or on the contrary, on the other hand, when the Trail Blazers, the confused look on their faces still did not mean that they disappeared at all when they came down from the court.

Not to mention that these Trail Blazers players were confused at this time, even the head coach of this team, Calesimo, who was very confident in the team before the start of this game, was the same at this time. When the team's official timeout began, he gritted his teeth and couldn't say a word, and a very strange silence appeared in front of the Trail Blazers' bench. For a moment, everyone didn't know what to do.

"hateful!"

So in this strange silence, the All-Star veteran defender Terry Potter, who was almost completely defeated by Lin Han in the game just now, threw the towel on his hand to the ground. At this time, other Trail Blazers players shook their heads after seeing this scene.

Lin Han's terrifying assisted defense ability in the first quarter was most of the time when the Trail Blazers' other direct attacking players were victims, but the real pain was probably against Lin Han against Terry Porter, because every time Lin Han completed assisted defense or completed steals, the ball was out of Terry Porter. Or in other words, Terry Porter was originally the tactical core of the team's game, but this tactical core was almost blown up by Lin Han from beginning to end.

A super defender who once had averaging 10 assists per game in a single season and is very confident in his passes. When he was defeated by his opponent in the field he was best at, the frustration was imaginable, so at this time he looked at Terryport's anger. Other Trail Blazers players were actually very understandable.

"Okay. Everyone, calm down. We haven't lost this game yet. Our tactics and strategies in this game have not failed, so we still have a chance."

Looking at Terryport's appearance, as the team's head coach, Calesimo, also said after taking a deep breath. After Calesimo finished speaking, the other Trail Blazers players were still silent. However, Terryport calmed down a little after venting just now. After all, he was a player who played in the Finals twice. There is still such adjustment ability, or most Trail Blazers players have such adjustment ability.

"However, everyone should be careful of that boy. Our offense needs to be more decisive and concise, and we cannot be restrained by that boy."

When the official suspension ended this time, Trail Blazers' head coach Carlesimo also made his last arrangement with gritted teeth.

Lin Han had no choice but to do with his previous terrifying assistive defense ability, so he could only make the team's offense more fast and efficient. As for whether the team could do it, this was actually not something he could decide, but something that the team's two defenders, Terry Porter and Strickland, did. However, after seeing these two defenders and other Trail Blazers starting players nodded, the Trail Blazers' head coach felt relieved.

"Larry, in the first half of the first quarter, the Trail Blazers played very badly and their offense was very severely blocked. Do you think they can improve after this timeout?"

When the Jazz and the Trail Blazers climbed onto the court again after the timeout, Collins on the sidelines said excitedly in the crazy cheering atmosphere of the fans of the court. Although there had just been an official timeout, Lin Han's performance in the first quarter still excited him until now. He is very much looking forward to Lin Han's performance in the future.

"Actually, this is not a tactical mistake. Lin Han's assisted defense is not a tactical thing that the Jazz team has. This is an accident, and it is a non-tactical accident. Therefore, it is difficult for the Blazers to change Lin Han, but I think this team will not be suppressed by the Jazz or by Lin Han. After all, sometimes even if the assisted defense is excellent, it is difficult to deal with as long as the opponent can calm down and start paying attention to these things. After all, in the NBA, offense is still active, while defense is always passive."

After thinking for a while, Larry Bird sighed and said, and after Larry Bird finished speaking, Collins nodded. Although he was looking forward to Lin Han's super-god performance like before, he also knew that with the experience of the Trail Blazers, it would be impossible to continue to be confused when encountering such a situation. And as Larry Bird said, NBA's offense will always take the initiative.

"Boy, your madness has ended here. I will not give you any chance in this game!"

So after a pause and calm down, Terryport, who was walking to the court again, faced Lin Han, the Trail Blazers' super defender was once again full of confidence. However, Lin Han shrugged indifferently about his teammate who was full of confidence again, but although Lin Han didn't seem to care, he had already posted it at this time.

Lin Han never thought that he could steal the guy in front of him every time. After all, Terryport is not a rookie. On the contrary, he has a lot of experience. Lin Han cut him three times in the half-quarter game, which actually surprised Lin Han a little. When the game started again, when Lin Han saw Terryport's ball protection more hidden and careful, Lin Han knew that it was not that easy to intercept the ball.

Of course, Lin Han's defense has never been just his previous steals and assisted defense, and as an outside defense player. Lin Han is not the team's defensive core. Although this skill is powerful, it is an outside defense skill after all. It is difficult to truly change the defense intensity of the entire team by one person. Inside defense players like Olajuwon and Kamp. They can change the defense intensity of a team by one person because they only need to stand below the free throw area and stare at the surroundings. This is the innate advantage of inside players. Their defense range is relatively narrow, while outside players like Lin Han are different, like

Lin Han, if he wants to defend, most of it needs to appear outside the paint area. The free throw line is above the free throw line. In this case, if Lin Han wants to save both front, back, left and right like an inside player, it is impossible. The distance is too long. So when Aly saw his excitement and excitement after Lin Han got this skill, he said at that time that although omnipresent is the best outside defense skill, for assisting defense, the outside players themselves are weak, so even the strongest outside defense skill is not the strongest assisting skill. Even the same level of purple gold may not be the opponent of some inside defense skills, let alone, assisting defense has purple skills.

So, when Lin Han began to use his single defense ability and lock-type defense to stick to Terry Potter after the timeout, the veteran soon discovered that the situation had changed again.

"Damn it, why is this kid's defense so good?"

When he was ready to quickly find his teammates after holding the ball, he frantically found that he could not get rid of Lin Han's crazy close-fitting defense, or he didn't even have any chance to play, because Lin Han's defense skills were not only terrible, but more importantly, this guy was taller than him, with a longer wingspan and faster speed. In this case, he was almost completely covered by Lin Han. Even when he wanted to use his experience to make some fake moves, Lin Han could have seen through them without surprise. If Terryport had not been really good, and had extremely rich experience and had a good protection of the ball, the Trail Blazers' guard might have been knocked to the ground by Lin Han's various small movements and sudden force, and the basketball in his hand would have been snatched by Lin Han long ago.

Of course, for the Trail Blazers, if this team wants to take advantage of the Jazz’s gap in assisting defense, the first priority is that they cannot stop the ball. The basketball must run quickly, and the players also need to actively run. Only after these two points can the Trail Blazers take advantage of the Jazz’s gaps.

It's just obvious that when Terryport, the Trail Blazers' tactical core in this game, was directly stopped by Lin Han. Although the ball was not lost, the Trail Blazers' fast rotation tactics could not be played at all. In this case, the Jazz's defensive loopholes could not be exposed.

In this case, when Terryport really couldn't get rid of Lin Han, but signaled his teammates to come up to pick him up, the Trail Blazers coach Carlesimo on the sidelines turned very ugly.

Because he knew very well that when Terryport could not get rid of Lin Han and seek help from his teammates, the Trail Blazers' offense was considered a failure at this time. Why did he play in double guards in this game? Isn't it because these two people have excellent ball control, excellent passes, and equally excellent escape ability. Isn't it possible for the Jazz to strangle them? Now, when one of them was strangled by Lin Han, the Trail Blazers' offense that had been arranged before this game to play the Jazz loophole was basically completely invalid, so at this time, the Trail Blazers' head coach was even more angry than Lin Han's previous attack.

After all, no matter how Lin Han steals and blocks it before, the Trail Blazers can still play the tactics he wants, and the team can still see hope of winning. Now, when Lin Han strangles Terryport to death, the offensive tactics the Trail Blazers want can't be played at all. If the tactics he wants to be played, what can the Trail Blazers use to defeat the Jazz? It can be said that Lin Han strangles his hope of defeating the Jazz with his own hands.

So when Strickland responded to Terryport, and when the offensive time was not long, he pushed Stockton's defense to force mid-range shot on the right side of the free throw line, Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan on the side looked at this scene without any expression, and there was still a faint smile on his face, as if the team's loss of points this time did not exist at all, and the Trail Blazers head coach on one side did not have any joy after seeing Strickland's attack successful. The head coaches on both sides looked very strange.

"The Trail Blazers' offense has encountered difficulties. If they cannot play the tactics that can defeat the Jazz's defense, they will continue to play singles. Although the Trail Blazers' personal strength is also very outstanding, they are definitely not the opponent of the Jazz. The Jazz are better than the Trail Blazers' defense and offense, both single-on-one defense and offense."

"It seems that the Trail Blazers are really dangerous!"

When both sides continued in the first quarter, many people wanted to see if the Trail Blazers could get rid of the pressure brought by Lin Han's defense to their offense. The final result was. After the second half of the first quarter, the team not only did not get rid of the defensive pressure given to them by Lin Han, but even couldn't play their own offensive tactics.

In this case, whether it is the reporters and experts on the scene or many professionals in front of the TV, it was extremely surprised for a while. One reason why the Jazz and the Trail Blazers game attracted great attention was Lin Han's career playoff debut, which was very attractive. Another very important reason is that the Jazz is a 72-win regular season team. Almost the entire league's teams aiming to win the championship have focused on them, in addition to these teams and fans who want to compete for the championship. Those experts who want to evaluate the Jazz's record this year also focused on this. After all, the Trail Blazers were very high-profile before the game, and in the eyes of many people, this team has excellent personnel configuration, which can indeed put a lot of pressure on the Jazz.

But in the end, judging from the first quarter of this game, the Trail Blazers seemed to have reached the verge of failure. Not to mention defeating the Jazz's defense, they can't even defeat Lin Han now. This is also the biggest problem for this team after Drexler is gone. There is no absolute offensive strength point on the outside, and it cannot break Lin Han's blockade against them.

"In this game, the Trail Blazers' three-inside offensive tactics were considered a failure. Without an absolute offensive point on the outside, under Lin Han's defense, it was difficult for them to contact the inside players and play the advantages of the inside on the offensive end. However, the three-inside tactics are very effective on the defensive end."

When the first quarter of this game was about to end, many basketball experts and professionals on the scene or in front of the TV came to this conclusion.

It is difficult for the Trail Blazers to break the Jazz's defense. Without the offensive rotation, playing singles with the Jazz is seeking death. The Jazz's single defense ability is now at least in the top five in the league. However, although the offensive end has not improved, the Trail Blazers' performance is very outstanding on the defensive end, especially the three inside players who are standing around the paint area, and the entire space is full of them. In this case, it is indeed difficult for the Jazz who lacks a super offensive inside line to break the Trail Blazers' defense from the inside line. Although Malone's offense is excellent, his height has always been a flaw. One-on-one he is really genius, and one-on-two can barely do it, but it is indeed a bit difficult for him to face three people alone.

Especially the Jazz players, except Lin Han, lack the ability to shoot outside. If the Trail Blazers' opponent is the Rockets, they will play three inside players with the Rockets, and they may have been killed by the Rockets before they were killed by Olajuwon.

But now, although the Jazz are many of them who can shoot three-pointers, such as Russell and Stockton can shoot three-pointers, these two are still far from the scorer's level. They are decisive and stable in both shooting. At least they are different in lethality. They also make three-pointers. The feeling of ordinary players making three-pointers and shooters making three-pointers gives people a completely different feeling.

Therefore, although the Jazz put extremely heavy pressure on the defensive end, making the visiting team unable to play the offense they want at all, on the offensive end, the Jazz's offense was not very good. In this case, although the Jazz had the advantage in the situation on the court, the scores of both sides were still not completely widened.

When the first quarter ended, the Jazz only led the Trail Blazers by 16 points 36-20, of which 14 of these 16 points were the lead in the first half, and the Jazz, which also had no open attack in the second half, had difficulty in playing a high score [the climax].

"If Lin Han hadn't blocked the Trail Blazers' offense, the Trail Blazers would have really been upset here in this game."

So when the first quarter ended, when the two team players came off the court, Collins also wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said.

It has to be said that when the Trail Blazers become serious and want to win a game, their strength cannot be underestimated.

"Lin, it's done well"

"Yeah, thank you. Fei'er"

Of course, although the Jazz didn't play well in the second half of the first quarter because the offense was not opened, as the best player in this game, Lin Han, who scored 20 points, 4 steals and 3 blocks in a single quarter. When Lin Han got out, Jazz's assistant coach Fei Er Johnson still gave Lin Han a very high praise, and even handed the towel to Lin Han himself, which surprised Lin Han a little.

When the Jazz's core players sat on the bench, everyone's expression was quite normal at this time. However, the pressure the Trail Blazers put on them in the second half of the first quarter still surprised Lin Han. This is not only the surprise that the intensity of the playoffs is indeed much greater than that of the regular season. For example, Terryport, although this Trail Blazers player is difficult to defend against Lin Han. However, this guy is giving Lin Han crazy physical contact every time he defends. This is impossible to happen if he is in the regular season, so it is just

After the first quarter, Lin Han felt that he was consuming a lot. You should know that he is not a novice without endurance skills now. On the contrary, his endurance skills are quite excellent. However, when Lin Han looked at him a little, he saw that Ma Long was already sweating profusely, Lin Han also laughed a little. It has to be said that although he encountered a lot of pressure, he still couldn't compare with Ma Long. This guy kept fighting with his opponent throughout the first quarter, and it can be said that he was quite depressed.

The Trail Blazers are a team with a very strong lineup. This thickness is not only reflected in the fact that their starting players are all All-Star. Even their substitutes are considered first-class in the league in terms of lineup thickness. At least in terms of this game, the Jazz's have become increasingly good substitute lineup before, and they have no advantage when facing the Trail Blazers. Even because David Wesley was a little nervous in the first playoffs, it made the Jazz's substitute lineup look a little at a loss.

In this case, when both sides played halfway through the second quarter and the starters of both sides played again, the score of both sides became 48 to 36, and the Jazz's lead was narrowed again.

Therefore, when the main players of both sides start again, although the Jazz have always had the advantage in this game, the suspense of the game still exists. Even if the Trail Blazers' offense is really not open, they can still achieve better defense and then use the team's equally excellent personal ability and lineup thickness to defeat the Jazz. This is the team's No. 2 plan.

Therefore, when Lin Han walked on the court again in the second quarter, the Jazz's super defender found that his opponent had been replaced. Terryport, a player with a little height problem, was taken down. The player replaced by the Trail Blazers was the team's small forward, and he was also somewhat quasi-All-star. He was 2.03 meters tall.

Obviously, for the Trail Blazers who did not open on the offensive end, Terryport was not efficient on the court, so it was not easy to replace Terryport and replace Corbin, which was to prepare for Lin Han to not be able to let go of this point.

When the two teams stood on the court again, the height of the Trail Blazers was terrifying. It would be fine if the three inside players were not. Corbin on the outside was 2.03 meters and Strickland on the point guard were 1.91 meters. Compared with the point guard, this height was not short. From this, we can also see what the strategy of the Trail Blazers in this game.

Of course, Jazz fans on the scene were all worried about this defensive change in the Trail Blazers at this time, even the Jazz head coach Jerry Sloan. The Trail Blazers don’t mention their record. The thickness of the players of this team is indeed very outstanding under Paul Allen’s gold-dollar offensive. In the NBA, as long as the team has enough players, then this team has enough threats, just like the Trail Blazers at this time.

"You don't think you can defend me like this, right?"

Although the Jazz was a little worried about the sudden change of the Trail Blazers at this time, Lin Han, as the person involved, was not worried at all. He even smiled when he looked at his new opponent.

Especially when the Jazz were serving the baseline ball and preparing to attack, Lin Han even told Stockton that he was going to advance the ball. In this case, facing Lin Han who suddenly made changes, the Trail Blazers head coach Carlesimo on the sidelines also frowned. He didn't understand what Lin Han was going to do in this way? Is he preparing to attack with the ball?

With Lin Han's ball-holding offensive ability, facing a Corbin who is one step away from him. Lin Han can indeed do it to break through Corbin, but it is impossible to get rid of Corbin completely. In this case, when he reaches the paint area, Lin Han is not facing one or two players, or even three or four players. Even if Lin Han's Xiaotian Gou plays well, chasing one person behind and two blocking in front of him. With such a defensive situation, it is difficult for Lin Han to ensure his offensive efficiency, right?

Therefore, when the Trail Blazers were preparing to change the lineup, Calessimo told Corbin on the field that as long as Lin Han does not appear at the three-point line, he should not be close to him. In order to ensure the blockade against Lin Han, Calessimo allowed Lin Han to throw three-pointers from a long distance.

It's just obvious that although Calessimo, the academy head coach, is indeed very good in tactics, he still doesn't understand Lin Han, especially Lin Han's three-pointer.

In addition to the highest shooting percentage of the three-pointer in the three-point line, Lin Han's three-pointer has the same shooting percentage. Whether it is a pull-up on the three-point line or a step outside the three-point line, the shooting percentage of the two-step and three-step emergency stop jump shots is similar. Therefore, for Lin Han, there is no difference between the Trail Blazers' defensive change, so Lin Han has no difference between facing Corbin or Terry Porter.

In this case, when Lin Han took the ball and looked at Corbin who was one step away from him, after smiling, Lin Han stopped and jumped to throw three-pointers at two steps outside the three-point line. The Jazz fans on the scene were shocked by Lin Han's choice. Although Lin Han's long-distance three-pointer is one of his marks, being able to play like this on the playoff stage requires a huge heart.

After Lin Han made a long-distance three-pointer, the Jazz fans who were worried before all went crazy again at this time. At this time, the Trail Blazers player Corbin, who faced Lin Han, showed an extremely horrified look at this time. Even the Trail Blazers head coach Calesimo frowned again. Although Lin Han's hit this time made him very unhappy, if it was just once or twice, he could still accept it. After all, any tactical changes would have to pay some price.

"I don't believe that your long-distance three-pointer can be as good as your normal three-pointer!"

So for the sake of victory in this game, because the offense was not open, Kalesimo, who could only exert force on the defensive end, looked at Lin Han on the court with a fierce look and thought to himself.

What just made Calessimo and the entire Trail Blazers crazy was that when Lin Han made a long-distance three-pointer and still hit the next game, the second and third time, Calessimo really couldn't keep his calm anymore.

Not to mention that Calesimo could not keep calm on the sidelines, even Cobin, who was on the field to defend Lin Han, could no longer continue to ignore Lin Han.

"A beautiful three-pointer, Lin Han's move is too decisive. The Trail Blazers do not oppress him enough. Lin Han's three-pointer is different from others. The other people's three-pointer is the farther the distance, the lower the shooting rate, while Lin Han's three-pointer is the farther the more accurate it is! The Trail Blazers now need to change their defense."

For the Trail Blazers, if they want to win, they need to do better on the defensive end when they cannot open the offensive end. They will definitely not tolerate a three-point shooting percentage like Lin Han. Not to mention that Lin Han can now get 1 of 2 shots, even if two of them are 5 shots, it is impossible to accept it. Therefore, before Caresimo found a way, the Trail Blazers players on the court took action.

But facing Corbin's close defense, Lin Han's choice was very simple, that was, to break through directly and then go directly to the inside. When Lin Han reached the free throw line, when the Trail Blazers' two insides rushed over, Lin Han stopped directly. Then he leaned back to Clifford Robinson and then turned around and jumped up to face the clamping defense of the two Trail Blazers' insides. Lin Han directly smashed the basketball in his hand into the inside. Malone, who had been playing very depressed in this game, played a link with Lin Han again when facing the Trail Blazers center Buck Williams' defense.

So when Lin Han directly broke through with Malone after facing the Trail Blazers' close defense, Trail Blazers head coach Calesimo, who was originally going to call for a timeout, trembled when he saw this scene.

Obviously, in this game, his team was not only severely suppressed by Lin Han on the offensive end, but even his team had no way to deal with Lin Han on the offensive end. And there was really no way!

"It seems that the Trail Blazers are sure to lose in this game."

When Lin Han made another offensive choice when facing the Trail Blazers' defense, Jazz fans on the sidelines were crazy because of the connection between Lin Han and Malone, and Larry Bird on the sidelines had already sentenced the Trail Blazers to death before the second quarter ended.

When Lin Han and the others couldn't defend themselves, not only Lin Han could not defend themselves, but when they persistently wanted to strangle Lin Han, Lin Han could also lead his teammate Ma Long. How could such a Jazz and Trail Blazers defeat them?

"Beautiful, beautiful, so beautiful. Lin Han's jumping and passing is really great. Whether it is offense, defense or passing, Lin Han can't tell at all that this is his first playoff game, which is really incredible!"

When the Trail Blazers on the court were fooled by Lin Han's defense before, Lin Han took over the team's ball on the offensive end and also fooled the team on the offensive end.

At this time, the Jazz fans on the sidelines had already started to burn, and as the commentator of this game, Collins was the same. For this crazy girl Lin Han, it was incredible that Lin Han could have such a performance in the first playoff game of his career.

Of course, it is definitely not just Collins who feel incredible at this time, such as Larry Bird beside him, the NBA experts and media in the stands at this time, especially those reporters.
To be continued...
