Chapter 404 The Rockets are over(1/2)

"Drexler has made five fouls now. Although he allowed Lin Han to score 80 points in this game in the third quarter, his performance in this game was quite outstanding. If it weren't for his constant restraint on Lin Han, perhaps Lin Han could get more points in this game so far. In the entire league, there are almost a handful of players who can keep up with Lin Han. Drexler is definitely one of them. Now the Rockets are a little difficult to deal with!"

"Yes, I really didn't expect Lin Han to get Drexler five fouls in the third quarter. Just like Lin Han's layup was underestimated, Lin Han's ability to make fouls was also underestimated. He actually used Danteley's fake moves so skillfully, which was simply incredible. When Lin Han used fake moves outside the three-point line, he had been using his slow dream steps. Although the effect was pretty good, he just cheated some fools. Most of the time, the effect was quite average. I really didn't expect that he could still use Danteley's fake moves."

"Isn't this normal? Danteley is a legendary player of the Jazz and one of the most cancerous characters in the NBA back then. The title of singles king is not a boo. Just think about how embarrassed Jordan was when Danteley made a foul in front of Danteley. Moreover, Danteley was the legendary player who supported Lin Han last season, so it would not be surprising that Danteley gave his unique skills to Lin Han. With Lin Han's talent that even dreamy footsteps and Xiaotian Gou can learn well, although Danteley's foul is not so easy to learn, but Lin Han can definitely get started easily!"

"Yes, we should have thought of these things for a long time.↑ But if Lin Han's current finishing ability and foul ability are not flawed, then wouldn't this kid really reach the level of Jordan? Even his three-pointer is even better than Jordan. This is a rhythm that Lin Han is going to go against the sky. No wonder before this game, facing the provocation of Barkley and the Rockets, Lin Han has always been very disdainful. It turns out that this kid has been hiding his strength!"

"Hmph, with Lin Han's secret character and hidden strength, how could it be that started from this time? I'm afraid this kid already had such strength in the draft. Otherwise, how can he explain that a player has really reached this level after only two years of basketball. Even Olajuwon could not do it back then. Even Duncan of Wake Forest University, who has been very popular recently, has only practiced his defensive skills to the first-class level of the NBA. Although he has already made a lot of offense, he is still a bit rough. This has been called a genius among geniuses, and it is even rare to see it in more than ten years. Can Lin Han be stronger than Duncan and Olajuwon? Damn in two years, he can turn himself from a person who can't play basketball into a full range of super players without blind spots? Believe it or not. I don't believe it anyway!"

"Haha, it's another set of skepticism. If Lin had really had such strength, would he be just that draft position? Are you stupid or he stupid? He needs to only get an annual salary of one million now. Didn't you New York media always say that he regards wealth as his life? If he really had such a strong ability at that time, it wouldn't be too much for him to get an annual salary of Glenn Robinson? Humph, what I look down on you the most is to label people. Everything Lin Han now is obtained by his own talent and hard work. Carell is in training. But more than once said that Lin Han's talent is the best in basketball history he has ever seen. Even the magician admits that Lin Han's talent is twice as strong as his peak period. Do you know what this concept is?!"

"Silent test? You dare to say that Lin's personality is insular test. Who doesn't know that Lin Han is a completely good person? His teammates have never criticized him except for the idiot power forward of the Jazz. Such a player is actually called a sinister test by you. I think you are the ones who are the real sinister test!"

"Okay, don't argue anymore, watch the game well. Do you really want to miss a game where Lin Han can get 100 points?!"

When Lin Han drove Drexler off the court and pushed his score to 80 points, the Lakers fans in the entire arena were in a state of excitement at this time, because after Lin Han scored 80 points in three free throws, the current scores of the two teams also reached 104-100. When the Lakers were about to be scattered by the Rockets, Lin Han actually led the team to pull the score apart again. You know, this is everything Lin Han got with his foul ability when he felt cold. This shocked everyone.

As a reporter at the scene, when Lin Han beat Drexler to the court and completely reversed the situation of the entire game, these media from all over the United States went crazy, and the press seats in the entire arena were in chaos at this time.

Of course, according to the situation of the game between the Lakers and the Rockets, it was definitely completely developed to the Rockets, but after Drexler left the court, everyone knew that the balance between the Rockets and the Lakers would now change.

Don't think that Drexler scored very few points in this game. When defending Lin Han, Lin Han scored a lot. I think this guy made little contribution to the Rockets in this game. On the contrary, Drexler's contribution to the Rockets in this game is not even as good as Olajuwon and Barkley. I won't talk about the defensive end. If it weren't for Drexler, any of the Rockets' outside lines would be easily removed by Lin Han. If there were no Drexler, the Rockets would definitely have to attack Lin Han.

With the magician's ability, he can create more offensive opportunities for the Lakers. Therefore, the Rockets are definitely unwilling to attack Lin Han without any last resort. However, without Drexler, if they want to play Lin Han one-on-one, the fool knows that it is impossible. This is just the defensive end. On the offensive end, if it weren't for Drexler's restraint on Lin Han, wouldn't he be able to play Wilkins and Rodman so miserably in the interior?

Don't forget that Lin Han is one of the best assisting players in the league. If Drexler comes off the court, Barkley and Olajuwon need to spend energy to observe whether Lin Han is likely to come back to assisting. Damn when they beat Rodman and Wilkins, they would definitely not dare to be as arrogant as before.

This is a huge impact. Although Drexler's fate does not mean that the Rockets lose their advantage, there is no doubt that this is an extremely huge reversal. Although the Rockets still have advantages, their advantages are no longer as huge as before and are not so invincible.

So, when Drexler got off the court with anger and unwilling expression, as the head coach of the Rockets, Tom Janovic felt a little relieved after comforting his beloved player. He was completely anxious and uneasy. Without Drexler, he no longer knew how to deal with Lin Han on the court.

Continue Drexler's single defense? Lin Han's feel is now down very quickly, and single defense is also OK, but Tom Janovic is not sure if Lin Han's feel is reduced because of Drexler. If Drexler is gone, Lin Han's feel is back, what should I do?

Double defense? With the Lakers' small lineup style in this game, it is quite dangerous. Although there are basically not many players on the Lakers' field who have participated in the team's offense in this game, Wilkins and Eddie Jones are both star players, not ordinary players, and they are likely to explode. Although this is not a big chance, it is not without a chance.

So, with less than three minutes left in the third quarter, Tomjanovic felt bad, and there was one thing that was extremely important that Lin Han could not pass Olajuwon's level in his heart before, but today, he could not have such a psychological advantage. And now Olajuwon has already committed three fouls, and this number of fouls is not much at the end of the third quarter, but this is also the past. Now, Lin Han didn't take much time to get Drexler out of the game. Who knows whether Olajuwon would hate being taken down by Lin Han? If Olajuwon was also taken by Lin Han, this is a damn thing. The result of this game simply made Tomjanovic unable to believe it.

Fortunately, when the game started again, the performance of Olajuwon and Lin Han made him feel a little more at ease, because from the game, Lin Han really wanted to make Olajuwon's foul. This kid looked for Olajuwon almost every attack, but Olajuwon's defensive foundation was much stronger than Drexler. After the Rockets' head player discovered this, he restrained his defensive movements and the effect was quite good. When he saw this scene, Tom Janoviz on the sidelines was completely relieved.

Of course, Tomjanovic was relieved at this time, but as the head of the Lakers, Lin Han was quite speechless at this time, because after Drexler took down, Lin Han had already looked for Olajuwon twice in a row. After this guy saw Lin Han's idea after Drexler came off the court, he was speechless. Damn, every time he went to find Olajuwon, the system had determined that there was enough method to foul Olajuwon 100%, but the probability of such a thing was not 100%. There is no doubt that Olajuwon was extremely careful, and without 100% chance, Lin Han did not dare to use the function of foul casually. After all, even with a 99% chance, isn't it still 1% impossible? In the eyes of many fans, Lin Han is a player who can create miracles. So why can't Olajuwon do this?

Therefore, when Lin Han wanted to make Olajuwon's foul and was blocked by the extremely cautious Olajuwon, Lin Han finally had to choose to break through and pass the ball on the offensive end, and when there was no chance, he would split the basketball in his hand. Other Lakers players did not participate in too much offense in this game, so the team's feel has not been fully opened. Therefore, even if Lin Han suppressed Olajuwon tightly in the inside, the pressure of assisting defense faced by Lakers players was quite small, but the shooting percentage of these players could only be considered average.

Of course, the Lakers' offense is really average now, and the Rockets are not much better. Drexler's fate has a huge impact on the Rockets on the offensive end. It can be seen that Lin Han has been moving near the three-point line and moving back to the free throw line. Although Rodman and Wilkins still cannot block Olajuwon and Barkley. However, these two people are not as "willful" as before, and because of distraction, their scoring efficiency has also declined.

It was in this case that the Lakers and the Rockets bit each other again after Drexler got off the court, but this time they really bit each other. And from the situation on the court, because Olajuwon did not want to be fouled by Lin Han, after the defensive movement range was shortened, it seemed that after Lin Han was restrained, the situation between the two sides actually reached a balanced power. After all, when the Rockets attacked, the Rockets were dominant, and when the Lakers attacked, the Lakers were dominant, which was indeed a balanced power!

"Lin Han, he actually suppressed Olajuwon under the basket and did not dare to move around. If someone told me before the start of this game, Lin Han would score 80 points in this game, maybe I wouldn't believe it, but I would nod to agree. Because this is indeed possible, Lin Han has such strength, but if someone told me that Lin Han could press Olajuwon tightly in the inside line in this game and did not dare to move around. Even if I beat me to death, I wouldn't believe it!"

"It's a pity, it's such a pity. In order to lock up Lin Han, Olajuwon dared not move around. If other Lakers players feel better at this time, the score difference in this game will continue to widen. It has to be said that Drexler's fate will have a big blow to the Rockets. This team that had no loopholes had a loophole!"

The Lakers were evenly matched with the Rockets in the game. For Lakers fans or other fans who supported the Lakers and Lin Han, they were really willing to see it. After all, the team was not at a disadvantage, and even professionals like Larry Bird and Collins were very happy at this time. Although I don’t know when Lin Han’s deterrence against the Rockets will last, after all, the deterrence of the foul crisis will definitely be caused by a certain player after a period of time.

Infinitely enlarged, if Olajuwon felt that he was no longer threatened and needed a more aggressive attack, and when he was no longer willing to be restrained by Lin Han at the basket, he would definitely be dispatched again. At that time, the Lakers would once again be at a disadvantage. Moreover, with the skill of fouls, even Dantley, known as one of the strongest NBA history, even if he could make Jordan so ecstasy that year, he could not guarantee that he would succeed every time, let alone Lin Han.

However, even if this is only short-term, Lin Han only made Olajuwon extremely afraid, and only made the team and the Rockets balance out, but this is enough. If the suspense of the Lakers and the Rockets really dragged to the fourth quarter, and Lin Han even forced Olajuwon to be forced to the point where the Lakers lost in the end, Lin Han's performance was enough for those who wanted to blackmail him!

Of course, Lakers fans, Larry Bird and others were quite satisfied to see that the Lakers and Rockets were playing evenly, and they were able to accept such results, but it was obvious that Lin Han would definitely not be willing to accept such results.

As long as Olajuwon is not really done, Lin Han will not be able to accept such a result. Although it seems that everyone is evenly matched now, when Olajuwon shows that he has the ability to control fouls, Lin Han is not sure whether this guy suddenly explodes with the last three minutes of the game, which will suddenly reverse the normal game situation. At that time, it is very likely that what is waiting for Lin Han and the others will only fail!

Similarly, as the best inside player in the league, Olajuwon is so happy that he can't move under the basket by a former defeated player, but in order to control his foul numbers, he has to do this. Although this is quite atrocity for him, as long as the Lakers and the Rockets can keep biting like this, as long as he feels that he is no longer threatened by the foul crisis in a short time, he believes that his explosion will definitely sweep the Lakers!

Therefore, when this game became so anxious, Lin Han definitely hoped to break this balance of power sooner, while Olajuwon definitely hoped to break this balance of power later.

Therefore, when the third quarter game of both sides ended, when the Lakers ended with a 108-106 lead, Lin Han and Olajuwon, who were breathless at this time, the two of them looked at each other with a very intense look when they walked to the center circle. If they weren't still playing at this time, the Lakers and Rockets players around them were almost no surprise that the two might have started to fight.

...

...

"Damn kid, I must kill you in this game!"

Thinking about Lin Han's extremely provocative look when he got off the court, and the scene of being suppressed by Lin Han in the last period of the third quarter of the game, Olajuwon, who returned to his position, was very unhappy at this time. He was made like this by the Lakers. They never thought that he was hit to death. He never thought that he was suppressed by Lin Han in the game. When Lin Han didn't dare to challenge him. He looked forward to Lin Han going to challenge him head-on, but now, Lin Han really challenged him head-on, but he did not respond. Although he knew that it was Lin Han's intentional provocation, he was still quite unhappy when he thought about this.

"Hmph, wait, everything you have caused to me. I will definitely double down on it!"

However, thinking of his entire strategy in this game, Olajuwon calmed down a little and covered the towel that Barkley handed over directly on his face. He also collapsed on the chair.

At this time, Tom Janovic, who was on the side, saw Olajuwon and Barkley, whose chest fluctuated violently, and the Rockets head coach's face became increasingly ugly.

Especially when seeing Drexler who still covered his head with a towel, Tom Janovic smiled helplessly!

Drexler's five fouls. This is not only the offensive and defensive end that put the Rockets in crisis. What is more important is that Barkley and Drexler will leave the court in the second half of the fourth quarter because Drexler's five fouls. Barkley must stay on the court and keep playing the third quarter. Then, at the start of the fourth quarter, Drexler cannot play in the bench, and Barkley and Olajuwon need to rest again, who will lead the team's substitute lineup?!

You know, usually at this time, Barkley and Drexler take turns to lead the team to substitute!

Especially, when the rest time in the third quarter ended, when the Rockets head coach saw the Lakers and Lin Han was about to play in the fourth quarter, the Rockets head coach directly cursed the country! Then he looked at the Lakers with a little stunned.

When the Lakers' substitute lineup was already on the technical stage and was about to play under the leadership of Lin Han, it was not just Tom Janovic who saw this scene. Olajuwon, who was panting on the bench just now, and even Drexler, who had been covering his towel on his head, heard the uproar around him, also discovered this scene. When he saw Lin Han sitting on the floor in front of the technical stage, whether it was Olajuwon, Barkley or Drexler's face became quite ugly at this time!

"Bastard, this kid is so bastard, this kid is so shameless!"

When these three Rockets players saw that Lin Han was ready to continue playing in the fourth quarter, Barkley, who had a very hot personality, started to curse at this time.

When Drexler was off the court, the game situation between both sides became anxious, as long as a slightly professional person could see that the Lakers wanted to fight ahead of schedule, and the Rockets, who were in a foul crisis, hoped to postpone the decisive battle. If they wanted to achieve the goal of the Lakers' early decisive battle, the Lakers must put pressure on the Rockets in the scores, so that the Rockets felt that the scores of both sides had been widened. If they did not make efforts in advance, the game would be lost. Then the early decisive battle between the two sides would be staged and the situation of the game would be beneficial to Lin Han and the Lakers.

However, the key is, how can the Lakers have enough advantages in the scores to make the Rockets feel threatened? Of course, they are to support the start of the fourth quarter. In order to maintain enough physical fitness when postponing the final battle, Olajuwon and Barkley are not young people like Lin Han after all. Even if they are tired, they will grit their teeth and pass by. They cannot play the whole game in the second half with such huge intensity. They can guarantee that they will stay in the best state until the last three minutes. You must know that as long as they play on the court, Barkley and Olajuwon will definitely not be able to stand on the court to rest. They need to lead the offense.

So, when Lin Han was out of breath and was overdrawn even though he was breathless. When Lin Han took the court at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the choice that gave the Rockets was quite entangled.

Olajuwon and Barkley followed suit. If the Rockets did this, even if Olajuwon and Barkley could bite the game and leave the game until Drexler came on the court, it is not necessarily clear how much physical they have to complete the sweep against the Lakers. Even before the final battle, they had already died with Lin Han first, and the game would enter an unpredictable state. If Lin Han had such a speechless miracle moment at the last moment, they would definitely cry.

If Olajuwon and Barkley don’t go to Barkley or only go to Barkley, Olajuwon rests and waits for the final decisive battle. Damn, the Lakers’ substitute is better than the Rockets, and Barkley is most afraid of in the entire league. Isn’t it obvious that he is pushing Barkley into the fire pit?!

I'm afraid the Lakers will really hope that Barkley will play at this time, which is the best way to do so. It not only consumes Barkley and completes his intention to attack the Rockets and open the score.

It can be said that when Lin Han insisted on playing at the beginning of the fourth quarter, he told the Rockets that you should not hide anymore. Let's fight to the decisive battle, and the Rockets will fall into an extremely passive situation.

Of course, the final battle is ahead of schedule. The Rockets are not afraid of the final battle in advance. With their strength, even if they fight in advance, they have an advantage. It's just not that safe, because Olajuwon is not sure whether Lin Han really has such strong foul ability, so he hopes that the postponed the final battle will make Lin Han's foul ability no threat to him and Drexler. Then everyone will fight to the point.

It’s just obvious that Lin Han and the Lakers don’t seem to want to do what they want!

"Hakim, Clyde, let's go up and fight this kid. I don't believe this kid can get all three of us down. Although this guy scored 10 points in a row with free throws, this guy has a lot of luck no matter how you look at it. We can't continue to be conservative. This kid is going to ride on our necks!"

Looking at Olajuwon and Drexler who were hesitant at this time, Barkley almost shouted out directly at this time. When the Rockets saw Lin Han walking towards the court, and the other substitutes of the Lakers sitting on the sidelines all looked at them, the faces of the three Rockets' head players became even more unhappy.

The guys from the Lakers are obviously telling them that if you start, we won’t be there. If you are on the bench, we will follow Lin Han on the court.

So, when feeling this scene, both the three players of the Rockets, other players of the Rockets, or Tom Janovic were so angry that they were itchy at this time.

As the strongest team in the league, when did the Rockets encounter such an embarrassing situation? They were forced to such an extent by Lin Han and the Lakers!

"Don't do it, since this guy wants to fight us in advance, we will be as he wishes!"

After glaring fiercely at this time, Lin Han, who had been smiling at their bench, Olajuwon said almost gritting his teeth after thinking for a while, he would definitely not allow Barkley to go up alone, because this would give the Lakers points. If you really stand in the final battle, the Rockets will still have to carry the burden of falling behind. This is absolutely unfavorable. Since Barkley cannot go up alone, he can only fight in advance.

They were forced to be like this by Lin Han. If they still dodge, they would really not deserve the title of the strongest team in the league. Moreover, they have always been worried about whether Lin Han's sudden foul ability will be used later. It is still hard to say that they don't have to be so scared!

So, when Olajuwon made the decision, and when the Rockets players saw that their team's head coach Tom Janovic also nodded, the entire Rockets' bench almost boiled at this time.

When seeing this happen to the Rockets' bench, even the Lakers fans and press seats on the sidelines were in an uproar, and even Larry Bird and Collins were a little surprised at this time.

"I really didn't expect that the Rockets would be forced into this by Lin Han?!"

"I'm afraid Lin Han can make the Rockets, the best in the league, feel so embarrassed. No matter what the result of this game is, Lin Han has already surprised everyone!"

Looking at the starting player of the Rockets who were forced by Lin Han to grit his teeth and walked towards the court, Larry Bird and Collins on the sidelines both laughed.

"Of course, Lin Han's actions are totally angering the Rockets. But since Lin Han wants to fight ahead of schedule, he shouldn't care about these things. But is he really able to create fouls between Drexler and Olajuwon again?"

Lin Han is so impatient to fight the Rockets in advance. If he does not have the ability to get Drexler and Olajuwon out of the field, then the early decisive battle will only be seeking death in advance. Except for Lakers fans, everyone else knows this.

So, when the starters of both sides stood on the court again, everyone in the entire stadium focused on Lin Han.

After the fourth quarter game began, when the Rockets' Big Three came on the court again, it has to be said that the Rockets' advantage came out. When the Rockets began their first attack in the fourth quarter game, when Drexler once again helped the team's two inside players to restrain Lin Han, O'Neal and Barkley once again reached the maximum damage to the Lakers' inside. After facing Barkley who had almost no worries, Wilkins's striker was almost pushed off the court by Barkley all the way. The Rockets' power forward directly completed the dunk at the basket!

"108 to 108, the Rockets tied the score as soon as they came up. Barkley and Olajuwon's inside line are really too strong. With Drexler, the attacks of these two people are simply unstoppable. The league is the first, and it is indeed the first in the league. Now the Lakers are in danger!"

When the Rockets directly crushed the Lakers to complete the attack in the first attack after the start of the fourth quarter, Lin Han, who had been standing outside but had his eyes on the inside of the team, was helpless to see such a situation. Rodman and Wilkins had already worked very hard, but the combination of Barkley and Olajuwon was so terrifying that it was speechless. Although these two people seemed to rely on their own personal abilities to solve the problem on the offensive end, in fact, when these two people were playing their personal abilities, the two could cooperate with each other. Their passing ability was as big as the ball.

All the players are quite outstanding, especially Olajuwon. In this case, as long as Rodman and Wilkins are a little relaxed, they can pass the basketball to the player with the most chance, whether in Olajuwon's hands or in Barkley's hands, just like this one Barkley played Wilkins' offense. Before that, Olajuwon played Rodman alone, but after seeing Barkley's chances better, Olajuwon passed the ball and found Barkley. Barkley directly knocked the defensive player away from the field and completed the dunk when Wilkins was not ready.

When the Rockets' Big Three came on the court again, the advantage of the combination of these three players was that they instantly suppressed the Lakers. Even Lakers fans on the sidelines could feel this, let alone the Lakers players on the court.

"Boy, don't you want to have a decisive battle in advance? We will prove that no matter when the decisive battle is in this game, we will be the only one who will win in the end!"

When Barkley completed this attack and walked past Lin Han, he said to Lin Han with great disdain. After that, he snorted coldly and left the Rockets players. Looking at the backs of Barkley, Olajuwon and others, Lin Han also frowned.

"Okay, don't care. It's just an ordinary offense. The Rockets just tied the score. There's nothing wrong with it. Don't worry, magic, let me play and advance later."

Looking at the Lakers teammates who were slightly frustrated by the Rockets' inside double superstars at this time, Lin Han also said with a smile. After Lin Han finished speaking, the other Lakers players' faces were also a little better. Everyone on the court knew that they should not be frustrated at this time and should be calm, but there were not so many players who could maintain such a mentality. The players need to remind them all the time. As for the Magician, after Lin Han asked for the ball, the Lakers point guard nodded without hesitation. This was agreed upon by the Lakers when they were on the court.

When Lin Han chose to drive the ball after the fourth quarter, the audience on the sidelines were also a little excited when they saw this scene. Obviously, at this time, Lakers fans had already thought of Lin Han's 10 consecutive free throws in the third quarter. And the reporters from all over the United States on the sidelines naturally thought that Lin Han and Olajuwon's battle this time might have been inevitable.

As commentators of this game, Larry Bird and Collins, as well as the Rockets head coach Tom Janovic, they knew that the outcome of this game would be, which would determine the success or failure of Lin Han's ball-holding attack this time!

So, when Lin Han slowly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and when Drexler came up with him after Lin Han's half, regardless of his five fouls, almost everyone on the sidelines, whether it was fans or reporters, even Tom Janovic and Carell, even Larry Bird and Collins, stood up at this time, and almost all of these people's eyes were aimed at Lin Han!

"Boy, this time, I won't let you live!"

Looking at the Lin Han who was still slowly controlling the ball in front of him, Drexler's face was extremely firm. Even if he was sent off for the sixth foul, he didn't care. This attack would definitely not allow Lin Han to succeed because he knew very well. If Lin Han could still successfully complete the attack, how much pressure would be on the Rockets.

However, when he saw that Lin Han had almost no expression after he provoked. Moreover, when Lin Han, who was in control of the ball, was getting faster and faster, the Rockets player also felt deep in his heart. This guy was going to make a big stride and change his direction!
To be continued...
