Chapter 146 Defeat!(1/2)
(Please give me a monthly ticket, please subscribe!)
Barkley, like Lin Han, failed completely when the Phoenix Suns decided to double-team Lin Han!
This is not only known to the Phoenix Suns players, but also to the fans, Barkley, who is one of the focus of this game, also knows.
He can't handle the players he faces, so in order to win, the team must attack Lin Han. So, theoretically, even if the Suns win in the end, Barkley actually has nothing to say in this game.
It can even be said that the Suns' player has accepted such a fact, and now, Lin Han, who had already won the challenge, has actually launched another challenge to him, and the content of the challenge is so strange.
Or it's not to mention strangeness, but crazy. It's clear that Lin Han's challenge is to compete with him for who has the stronger cancer attributes. When facing double-teams, he still takes action wildly. Barkley can do it, really can do it, or any NBA superstar can do it.
But many times, no one will do this. People are afraid of it. If you do too much of this kind of thing, it will be difficult to explain it clearly in the future. Just like Olajuwon in the past, his sentence, my shooting rate is higher than my teammates. Why do I pass the ball? This kind of thing that almost represents the highest declaration in the cancer world, even after Olajuwon's "turning back to justice", he still follows Olajuwon at all times.
Of course, for Barkley, since he is a superstar, he must have done such a cancerous thing. If he insists on doing it, he can do it, but it is obvious. Since the Suns have started to double-team Lin Han, what the Suns need is a victory.
In this case, Barkley could not agree to Lin Han's request for a one-on-one challenge. So, when Lin Han's right hand held high and pointed at Barkley, Barkley was very angry and helpless at this time, and really helpless. If he could not care about the team's victory or defeat in this game, then the team did not need to double-team Lin Han and let him fight Lin Han alone.
"I won't do such boring things with you"
Facing the aggressive Lin Han, Barkley almost gritted his teeth and squeezed out a sentence from the corner of his mouth.
"Oh. Is this kind of thing boring? You're not afraid?"
Looking at Buckley who looked angry at this moment, Lin Han said with some fun.
Seeing that Lin Han seemed to be against Barkley again, there seemed to be an argument. At this time, the Suns fans on the sidelines gave Lin Han crazy booing again. Even the other balls on the two teams were all on the side of Lin Han and Barkley, especially the Jazz players. At this time, Lin Han was surrounded by three people from the Suns.
When I saw Lin Han facing three Suns players not far away, he was still provoking Barkley with a smile on his face, Stockton even felt that this kid was extremely admired. This courage was not something that ordinary people could have. Just look at the expressions of Ac Green and Cebaros around Barkley.
The two of them heard the conversation between Lin Han and Barkley very clearly, which was equivalent to Lin Han insulting Barkley in front of them. As long as Barkley gave his order at this time, these two people could be surrounded by Lin Han at any time and beat him up. This is how the Suns fans on the sidelines thought.
"Boy, don't be so arrogant, be careful not to be able to stay in NBA for a long time"
At this time, as an old senior, A Green glared at Lin Han fiercely, as if he was about to attack Lin Han, and he didn't forget to push Lin Han. At this time, facing the fierce A Green, Lin Han smiled again as if nothing had happened. Then he looked at Cebaros deeply, the swinger of the Suns. After the start of this game, the player who was made into a psychological shadow by Lin Han subconsciously took a step back after being glanced by Lin Han.
"Hahaha, are you all?"
After Ceballos was stared by Lin Han, Lin Han almost laughed wildly. At this time, Green and Barkley felt very embarrassed, but Lin Han ignored them. After Stockton and the others came, they turned around and left.
"Lin, are you okay?"
"You kid really dare to do whatever you want. You dare to take action in that situation. It's just a matter of no idea what to say. Can't you see that I'm empty? Just throw the ball into the air and I'll be an empty space."
Lin Han's attack just now was very domineering, but he was scolded by Ma Long. However, Lin Han still didn't care much at this time, but just kicked the guy with some dissatisfaction with the demon grab that Ma Long reached out to the back of his head.
"I dare to shoot like that when I see that everything is empty in your place. Even if I don't make it in the end, can you still score a frontcourt rebound? Isn't this more efficient than passing the ball to you."
After Lin Han finished speaking, both Malone and Stockton were shocked. Lin Han played cancer to help Malone win the frontcourt rebounds.
Of course, for Lin Han, regardless of whether Barkley accepts his challenge in the end, the Suns' player's plan to defeat him in this game was completely shattered. Now, for Lin Han, the most important thing is to help the Jazz win!
As long as the Jazz can beat the Suns away in this game, the match between Linhan and Barkley will be a complete victory!
Now, this goal is not difficult, because the Jazz are still leading. When they were halfway through the third quarter, the score on the field was 78 to 71, and the Jazz had already led by 7 points.
However, if Barkley was really stimulated by Lin Han and completely ignored the team's victory or defeat in this game and just wanted to have such a strange showdown with Lin Han, then Lin Han would be even more welcome. It was obvious that when the Suns' offense began, Barkley encountered the problem of Malone and Lin Han again. Faced with the Jazz's inside attack, Barkley was not stimulated by Lin Han.
As one of the best players in the league, if Barkley was still unconscious by Lin Han at this time, he would really not be worthy of his title.
Of course, since Barkley had already admitted his conscience at this time, Lin Han found that he could not stimulate the Suns boss. Naturally, he would not play the brainless three-person double-team. Although the Jazz is now ahead of the Suns, the leading score is not that safe.
So. In the next period of time, the style of this game changed again. After the scoring duel between Lin Han and Barkley, the two started the rebounding duel again!
After Lin Han and Barkley gave up their respective singles, the defense of both teams returned to extremely strong intensity. In this case, the offensive success rate of the two teams will naturally decrease, and the most important consequence of the decrease in offensive success rate is naturally that the number of rebounds will increase.
When the two teams have similar offensive success rates, the Suns need more rounds to chase points. If the Suns Jazz need to defend their victory, they must protect their rebounds.
If we follow the strength on the books, although Barkley and Ac Green are not very tall, they are both famous rebounders in the league. On the Jazz, Malone is a top rebounder in the league. As for Lin Han, this guy used to be just an outside line. Although the Jazz's rookie showed his extremely strong rebounding sense, can the Cavaliers' inside line and the Bucks' inside line be compared with the Suns?
Of course it is impossible, so Lin Han showed his rebounding sense in front of these two teams, basically has no deterrent effect on the Suns. In the Suns' view, his inside line is now at a disadvantage in scoring, but he definitely has an advantage in rebounding.
At least on the surface, this is the case, so when the Suns' scores fell behind, the two sides returned to their regular play style, and after Barkley and Lin Han returned to normal, the Suns' head coach Westfal was actually very confident in the team's pursuit of points.
Therefore, even though the score has been behind, the Suns' head coach has always smiled on his face.
However, as the third quarter game between the two teams went deeper and deeper, the Suns coach who had always kept smiling really couldn't laugh.
Why? Because, the Suns' rebounding ball, which he always thinks has the advantage, does not have any advantage on the court!
Barkley's rebounding sense is absolutely top-notch. He can be regarded as a miracle for so many years in the NBA with a height of less than 1.98 meters. Compared to Barkley's highest rebounding season, he has won a super strong man who averaged nearly 15 rebounds per game in a single season, especially in frontcourt rebounding. With his sensitive sense of smell and better flexibility and athletic ability than other insiders, this guy is the highest season.
The season is close to 6 frontcourt rebounds per game. When the 76ers were on the 76ers, they have nearly 5 frontcourt rebounds in almost every season. It was only when the Suns that Barkley's rebounds and offensive rebounds dropped a lot. Although this has something to do with his age, the bigger reason is the Suns' style of playing. If you only compare the sense of rebounds with the sense of smell, Lin Han's lv1 level of rebounds and smell of smell in the whole game is actually not as good as Barkley.
However, although they are not as good as Barkley in terms of smell, they can be compensated by other aspects. In this Jazz and Suns game, both teams played in small-line runs and fights. It is not those inside strong teams who are stern in their posture and slowly play. The first key to running and hitting is to be fast, not only attack fast, but also retreat quickly. In many cases, the team does not grab the frontcourt rebounds, or it is difficult to grab it. Such running and hitting style is more beneficial to the protection of the defensive side's rebounds.
In this case, even if Barkley has a stronger rebounding ability than Lin Han, Lin Han, who has a more favorable advantage, can still completely block Barkley. If Barkley wants to forcefully use his athletic ability to grab the frontcourt rebound, that would be even better. Lin Han may not be as good as Barkley, but in terms of athletic ability, Lin Han, who has activated his courage to move forward, really feels that he can defeat Barkley.
So, as expected, the Suns should have quickly caught up with the Jazz and tied the score back, but the final result was that the two teams on the court were in a difficult position, especially after Lin Han played a similar game with Barkley on the offensive end, in terms of rebounding, after Barkley strengthened his rush, he was able to protect the Jazz's backcourt rebounding.
Therefore, when the third quarter game continued with time, almost everyone in the West American Stadium, including the Suns fans, were almost all watching the game on the court in a daze.
Barkley averaged more than 12 rebounds per game last season, one of the best rebounders in the league. Now he was resisted by a player like Lin Han who played the inside from the outside. If Lin Han is the scoring leader, they would admit that he could beat Barkley in offense. However, Lin Han's average rebounds this season, even if he added the first two games, the average number of rebounds per game was not as high as 4. This is the average value of most shooting guards in the league. Perhaps less than yet. Such a player actually stumped Barkley in rebounding. Who can believe that such a thing can happen?!
"Awesome. It's so amazing. Jerry, I didn't expect Lin's rebounding ability to reach this level. In the first two games, I thought it was just because I met some weak opponents, so I used his physical talent to beat him. Now it seems that this is not the case at all! This kid has the ability to protect the team's backcourt!"
When watching the Suns being blocked by a short inside iron gate composed of Malone and Lin Han on the court, Jazz assistant coach Fier Johnson on the sideline was very excited, really excited. If Lin Han could really have such strong ability to protect the backcourt. Even if his height is indeed a problem, he really has the capital to gain a foothold in the inside. The inside combination of Malone and Lin Han is likely to become one of the team's decisive weapons at critical moments.
When he thought of this, the Jazz's assistant coach almost trembled with excitement. He had already seen the future of the team!
Fier Johnson can see this, and Jerry Sloan can naturally see this. Although Lin Han had no pursuit in rebounding before, Jerry Sloan knew that Lin Han's rebounding ability was very good, but it was very good and could be as good as Barkley. These are two completely different concepts.
This game not only surprised him by the extremely terrifying inside lineman's extraordinary skills, but also surprised him with a very surprising rebounding skill.
Perhaps at this moment, Jerry Sloan truly felt trust in the double inside tactics of Malone and Lin Han who he had tried. Just as Fei Er and Johnson thought, at critical moments, such tactics may be able to save the team.
"How is this possible? Why is this so?!"
When Barkley on the court almost used all his strength to hit the rebound and was about to grab the frontcourt rebound, he was intercepted by Lin Han at a little bit, and almost this was the case every time.
You know, when facing any team in the league, Barkley's athletic ability and agility could almost completely outperform the opponent's opponent's opponents. But this time, he suddenly realized that he was now like the tall opponents who had been defeated by himself before, very embarrassed!
"How could this guy average less than 4 rebounds per game? How could this guy be an outside player?! I don't believe it, I definitely don't believe it!"
At this time, after watching Lin Han protect the next backcourt rebound again, he almost went to the frontcourt again, ignoring Stockton on the side. Instead, when he was taking a fast break, Barkley found that he was really a little collapsed at this time!
Even if he couldn't even take a step, he was already far away by Lin Han in an instant. It has to be said that Lin Han's playing style of directly driving forward and moving forward bravely after snatching the backcourt rebound is really terrifying. It can also be said that after looking at the whole game and moving forward, it can be no less than a quasi-purple skill. Lin Han doesn't know what the real power of the purple skill is, but if it is invincible, Lin Han feels that his playing style is extremely invincible!
"Many people say that Shaun Kamp is the most alternative player in the NBA, and say that he has simplified the basketball game into a dunk game. As long as he wants to dunk, no one can block him."
"Similarly, in my opinion, Lin Han is also an extremely alternative player. If Sean Kemp simplifies basketball into a dunk game, then Lin Han simplifies basketball into a racing game!"
After watching the backcourt rebound on the court, he rushed to the frontcourt, and behind him were all Suns players who were chasing back but couldn't catch up. As the commentator of this game, Collins simply felt that this scene was a bit terrible for Suns fans. Yes, it was really terrible!
So. When Lin Han didn't know how many times he completed the dunk in this game, and there was less than 2 seconds left in the third quarter, and it was almost a successful buzzer-beating dunk. The Suns fans at the scene were really speechless, or had nothing to say. Even in the face of Lin Han's arrogance after successfully dunking, these guys finally didn't even boo!
"This kid is really crazy!"
At this time, Lin Han, who was about to end the third quarter of the sidelines, was extremely wild and almost crushed the entire Suns team with his physical talent.
Whether it is Jordan in the box, Chamberlain on the sidelines, Russell, Jerry West and Pat Riley, they all feel this way in their hearts.
This kid is really a crazy beast!
"Boss, domineering, so domineering!"
When the Suns serve at the bottom line and scored three-pointers from a distance, at the end of the third quarter, Lin Han and other Jazz starters left the court. Lin Han's younger brother, Jazz's substitute inside player Aaron Williams almost almost felt like he was worshipping him!
He was really convinced, completely convinced!
If this boss had used his terrifying scoring ability on the outside to surrender, then now, Lin Han almost resisted it with his own strength, and even defeated Barkley, and brought the Jazz's entire momentum to the highest point, he really felt that his boss was too domineering!
"Yes, every time I see Lin's fast break, I feel excited."
"So too. This kid's playing style is really mentioned. Coach, let's continue in the fourth quarter of this game. We're going to decide this victory!"
"Yes, coach, let's go on!"
When Malone, Stoke, Lin Han and several other Jazz starters looked at Jerry Sloan with their eyes burning, although the Jazz substitutes on the side were also very excited at this time, the loss on their faces could be clearly seen. The statements of the Jazz and other core players were almost directly slapped their faces in the face, but they really couldn't defend themselves in the face with such a slap.
Jerry Sloan looked at the group of Jazz substitutes who were a little lost. He looked at the Jazz starters who were excited and almost had their eyes full of fire. In the end, the Jazz's coach nodded.
"In the fourth quarter, you will continue to play. This game will win!"
"victory!"
"victory!"
Under the leadership of Lin Han, the Jazz's bench was almost boiling, and at this time, the Suns bench on the other side was terrifyingly quiet. The third quarter was unable to recover the score, but instead widened the score.
Then the only thing the Suns can rely on now is that their substitute beat the opponent in the fourth quarter, but will the Jazz still foolishly replace them in the fourth quarter? Even Westfal doesn't believe it.
In his opinion, the Jazz can't beat this battle at most. In the end, they will lose back-to-back to Supersonics tomorrow, and they will tie history. Even if they regret not surpassing history, it will be worth it.
Therefore, at this time, the Suns were almost at a disadvantage in their momentum against the Jazz who had been driven by Lin Han. It can even be said that if there were no miracles, the Suns would have almost no chance to win in this game!
"Damn, damn, damn!"
This situation is very dangerous, and almost everyone knows it. So, at this time, the team's leading player Barkley almost ignored what the coach was saying and was always using his towel to vent his anger at the floor. In this game, other Suns players lost and lost, which at most became a footnote on the Jazz's 33 consecutive victories. Barkley is probably not as simple as becoming a footnote!
"It's hard, the Suns are really hard now"
So, at the end of the third quarter, even Larry Bird, who had been unwilling to make game predictions, was no longer optimistic about the Suns.
"In this game, the Suns still underestimated Lin Han's strength, or the whole world once again underestimated Lin Han's strength. This kid is an all-rounder, a real all-rounder. Even in our era, he still has a place!"
To be continued...
