Chapter 45 Lin Han, who kills and kills
"These two guys thought they could get some advantage when they started playing, but they were defended by Payton like a dead dog. Lin, now they are embarrassed to compete with you for the starting position in the future."
Looking at Bennott and Humphries who were replaced with dejected from the court, Aron Williams did not give these two seniors any face at all. He whispered in Lin Han's ear with disdain and mocked that their rookies had been bullied by these seniors who had come to the Jazz one or two years ago some time ago. If it weren't for Lin Han's status in the team, these rookies would have been eventually reduced to the role of serving tea and water.
If they were to serve tea and water to two veterans like Malone, Stockton and Chambers, they would be willing to serve tea and water, but who are Bennott and Humphries? One was a rookie last season, and the other was the biggest war criminal who joined the team with a high salary last season but was not doing anything. The team was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs last season.
"Say less, you are all teammates, don't let others hear you do anything else."
Although he was also a little disdainful of Bennott and Humphries, Brian Russell was much more calm than Aron Williams. When Lin Han had not made any statement, this player who played as the NBA starting lineup for the first time in his career because of Lin Han, also whispered to Aron Williams.
“The team is in a difficult situation now.”
Although Bennott and Humphries are the most unhappy players in the team who see Lin Han, as Russell said, both sides are teammates. And when the third quarter was about to end, the Jazz had gone from leading five points to falling behind by 8 points, and lost 13 points in a single quarter. From this, we can also see the importance of Lin Han and Jeff Malone, the two most important scorers on the outside of the team, to the team.
Although Jeff Malone was halfway down in the third quarter, Jerry Sloan finally couldn't sit still and replaced Jeff Malone, but it could only be considered a bit of a bleeding. In this case, with such a difference entering the fourth quarter, if the Jazz wanted to flip back, they could only look at Lin Han. Sloan also designed it. He originally put Lin Han and Jeff Malone in the substitute period starting in the fourth quarter at the same time. Now Jeff Malone has used it in advance, so in the end, he can only look at Lin Han.
It has to be said that the other Jazz players at the second and third positions are indeed not worthy of any trust during strong conversations. Most of these players do not have the banditry and ability to become a champion team puzzle.
"Lin, prepare to play, Russell, Aaron, Tom, Tyron, you are also ready to play"
At the end of the third quarter, when the Jazz entered the fourth quarter with a score of 69 to 77, head coach Sloan immediately made five-to-five adjustments. Judging from the number of players playing, there are many people who can play. For example, Tyron Cobin, a substitute forward guard player, is also very good. After all, the Jazz has an annual salary of 1.4 million yuan, and the current NBA can have a guard veteran who has an annual salary of over 1 million yuan. If there is not a single average of more than 15 points per game, it is considered a parallel to the players. However, because Corbin is a substitute for most of the time, he does not have many scoring opportunities. His average score per game in the regular season and playoffs last season was 12 points, which is one of the few players among the Jazz who have not reduced their playoff data and performance.
"Lin Quan sees you"
Although he is one of the few powerful veterans in the team, the 31-year-old veteran patted Lin Han's shoulder when he was on the court and encouraged that the Jazz's lineup is not organized by guards, which is destined to let Corbin control the ball. Corbin himself knows that his organization and ball control ability are not good, and Sloan still makes such a decision, naturally not to let their substitutes come on and play slowly, but to grab points. Although Aaron Williams is not very good, the young rookie has good rebounding skills, especially the frontcourt rebound. This is a lineup that grabs three shots and one defense. Aaron Williams grabs rebounds, Brian Russell defends the opponent's substitute Ricky Pierce, and the others are just snatching points and attacking wildly.
Compared to the explosiveness of scoring points and scoring, which Jazz defender can compare to Lin Han? This substitute lineup was designed specifically for Lin Han, and Lin Han is the main player. Corbin sees this clearly. This is also the reason why there are only two veterans in this lineup, except for three rookies. Because he and Chambers don’t have much resentment or dissatisfaction with Lin Han, they are asked to play with Lin Han.
"I will do my best"
Lin Han was also very moved by Sloan's painstaking efforts. It was considered that all the games were handed over to Lin Han. Whether this ball could be won in the end depends on him. As a rookie, it was rare to have such a heavy responsibility entrusted by the head coach and the team, and Lin Han was also very touched.
"Coach, I'm going to play"
At this time, Lin Han was very moved when he walked back on the court. Payton, who was breathing heavily on the supersonic bench, gritted his teeth. Lin Han was too cunning. The second half was staggered with his playing time and did not dare to face him head-on.
"Gary, sit down well, there will be a chance later."
After looking at the starting point guard of the team, George Carl frowned and said, "This game has been so far, he can see Sloan's intentions. He let Lin Han sit on the bench in the third quarter not only because Lin Han is in poor physical fitness, but more importantly, Sloan does not want most of Lin Han's physical fitness to be consumed in endless entanglement with Payton. Sloan believes that Lin Han's scoring explosive power will definitely be stronger without Payton's entanglement, so he would rather use the team to fall behind slightly for it.
"I want to see if this kid is really worth your gambling."
Just like Sloan doesn't like George Carl very much, George Carl doesn't look down on Sloan either. The reasons are the same. Only one of the strongest middle-aged coaches in the league needs to have.
"Jack, do you think Sloan let Lin Han take the lead in the fourth quarter to narrow the current eight-point gap between the two sides?"
When Lin Han brought the Jazz's substitute player on the bench, the fans of the Supersonics were also in an uproar when they saw Lin Han on the court. The young rookie had a deep impression on them in the first half. The transformation of Payton's defensive style in this game surprised and surprised the fans of the Supersonics. The defensive intensity was simply terrifying, but Payton's defense was already so crazy, and what was even more crazy was that Lin Han could still score "easily". Now that Payton is over, Lin Han's opponent has become Ricky Pierce. Pierce's offense is not worse than Payton, and it is even much better, but what about the defense? No one knows.
"It's very difficult. Pierce is a very stable substitute. As long as he plays, it's difficult for the team to have a scoring drought in the substitute stage. If there is no scoring drought, it's difficult for the Jazz to chase. And I don't think Lin Han, who has been in a cold quarter, still has such an outstanding performance."
Jack Hicoma said with some certainty that he was slapped in the face by Lin Han today. He was just sitting in such a position, and he had to say it, so after he said this, he felt uneasy, as if he had a premonition that something bad was about to happen.
Just like Hickoma's premonition, in the first attack, Lin Han received a back-to-back pass from Corbin, and did not even make adjustments. Facing Pierce, he directly caught the ball, turned back and leaned back and jumped to hit.
This move that was extremely similar to Jordan became extremely standard again. The entanglement with Payton in the first half made him not so comfortable every time he turned around and leaned back and jumped, and his movements were naturally not the absolute standard.
"Jack, I think you're really lucky today."
At this time, looking at Hicoma with an awkward look, the commentator on the side was a little helpless.
At this time, it was not just Hickoma who was helpless, and even Pierce was stunned. Although he knew that the team's best defense, Payton, was very embarrassed by this kid, he really didn't expect that this kid was so terrifying.
That incredible bounce, the stability and balance in the air, the super tilt of the air shooting, and the desperate super long wingspan, can this kid really defend?
Almost all the guards and athletes in the world who play basketball can do this, but they can do it to the level of Lin Han, because most players cannot control their air posture and shooting stability after the highest bounce. Therefore, many guards and players are obviously very good at bounce, but in order to make this move, they have to make themselves less jumping. Like Lin Han, they jump so high, have such a large back amplitude, and have such good shooting stability. There is really no one except Jordan.
"This guy is so short, it's so relaxing."
After the ball was easily hit, Lin Han shook his head a little. Pierce was not short, 1.93 meters tall and the same height as Payton. At this time, Lin Han added the pleasure of 11 points to the wingspan and directly increased his wingspan to 2.09 meters. Although it is not as good as Jordan's wingspan, it is not much worse. Although Pierce is about the same height as Payton, his wingspan is much worse. Moreover, he does not have the same stalking as Payton. Payton can not score points, and other teammates can make up for it, but Pierce cannot spend too much energy on the defensive end to defend.
In this case, Lin Han will naturally feel extremely relaxed.
Sloan on the sidelines also breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Lin Han's first shot smoothly. Lin Han's touch was not cold yet, and Sloan was also looking forward to whether Lin Han would start to hit continuously like Jordan in the next terrifyingly.
In the two games before meeting Payton, as long as Lin Han hit the first ball, the number of consecutive hits in the future was very terrifying, which is why he blocked the final block and pressed Lin Han.
In fact, with Lin Han's remaining explosive character and 70% of the second ball hits, as long as he doesn't encounter Payton, 70%, 65%, and 60%, at least the possibility of hitting the next three goals continuously is very high. If Lin Han's character is better in the first two games, he can even score 55% and 50%.
And after the fourth quarter began, it was indeed the case. The substitute lineups of the Supersonics and Jazz were both very crazy scoring. Originally, the other points in this game were all defensive rhythms of big confrontations, but now it has become a fast offensive rhythm, and the two sides began to attack.
Ricky Pierce is indeed the best sixth man winner in the league twice. Although this guy is not as natural as Lin Han in Russell's defense, he can still score easily. In this case, the games on both sides played very beautifully.
The fans on the sidelines also became excited immediately. Although the defensive game with high physical confrontation is also good, it is still not as good as the attacking match between the two sides, especially Pierce and Lin Han's 'answer-ball'.
"Lin Han hit again. This is the fourth goal he hit in a row. This guy's scoring explosive power is too strong. Pierce's fourth offense was cut off. The difference between the two sides has reached 6 points. The Jazz is still in control. Lin Han takes the ball and turns back and jumps back almost the same. Oh, my-god, enters the net hollow again. In one and a half minutes, Lin Han hits 5 goals in a row and scores ten in a row! The difference has reached 4 points. What should George Carl do now? It needs substitutions, adjustments, or do you need double-teams?"
"Incredible, it's incredible. I really can't think of anyone except Jordan who can hit five consecutive goals with this action is incredible."
At this time, when he watched Lin Han hit again, Sicoma was left to shake his head.
At this time, Payton on the sidelines had long been unable to sit still. If George Carl hadn't been holding him down, the young supersonic defender would have been on the court. In the last quarter, if he was using defense to kill the Jazz's second and third positions, then Lin Han is now using offense to kill the special.
"The possibility of hitting the next goal has dropped to 50%, but there is still a great chance"
What others thought was that after hitting five consecutive goals, Lin Han was still calculating the probability of scoring the next goal.
Obviously, Lin Han's current state has greatly stimulated the Jazz players on the court, and has also greatly disrupted the offensive rhythm of the supersonic substitute players. Although Pierce still wants to beat Lin Han on the offensive end, Pierce and the supersonic players, who have a somewhat unbalanced mentality, naturally cannot keep up with Lin Han's current rhythm.
Lin Han hit the sixth consecutive goal in the fourth quarter, with only 2 points in the gap between the two sides
The seventh goal with a chance of hitting is only 45%, and the difference between the two sides is still only two points
The chances of hitting are only 40% of the eighth goal left, and the Jazz tied the score, and at this time, only more than 3 minutes have passed in the fourth quarter.
"Is this guy a perpetual motion machine? Doesn't he think his hands will become sore because of crazy moves?"
At this time, looking at the score of 85 to 85 on the sideline scoreboard, all the Supersonic fans of the game were silent. Scoring 16 points in NBA for a period of time is nothing, it really is nothing. Isaiah Thomas, the point guard, scored 25 points in a single quarter in the finals, but the key is that Lin Han's 16 points in a row were all the same action, just like constantly copying, repeating, and copying, and reducing the opponent to the point where it did not exist.
"It's so terrifying. This guy is really so terrifying. If he can maintain such efficiency in future games, then what other teams in the league can make him one-on-one singles? I think all teams in the league now need to develop a specific defensive player for him. Just like Jordan back then, he can't give him a mobile phone with ease."
"Although Payton only took a little more than 3 minutes to rest, maybe he was still very tired, the final battle between the Jazz and the Supersonics has already started because of this young rookie."
When the game time came to 9 minutes and 30 seconds left in the fourth quarter, Supersonics head coach George Carl finally couldn't sit still and called for a timeout. The final battle between the two sides came early.
“Today’s character is really good”
Lin Han, who came off the court, almost received cheers from most of the players on the Jazz bench. Even the team leader Karl Malone was exaggeratingly handing Lin Han a towel.
In their opinion, this kid was so angry that he was so angry that he was beaten by supersonics in the third quarter.
But compared with the excited Jazz, Lin Han kept observing his hot and hot hands. He really didn't expect that this time he could hit 8 goals in a row, even if he failed to do it in the previous two games.
