Chapter 296 Benjamin's Day of Rejuvenation(2/2)
Everyone knows how bad Ben Gordon's defense is, especially in one-on-one situations. Almost any type of defender can find a breakthrough under Ben Gordon's defense.
In addition, he is not tall, has rough passing ability and is full of desire to score, so he was appointed as a shooting guard.
His lack of height in this position directly results in his limited defensive range, something Lin Sen is already familiar with.
And Ben Gordon's ability, especially in preventing defenders from breaking through, is appallingly poor. He has almost no ability to defend from the side. Moreover, on the defensive end, Ben Gordon has one of the worst problems, which is that he is prone to attack.
Fake action.
Thinking of this, Lin Sen already had an idea, so he deliberately pointed his finger at Ben. Gordon looked extremely arrogant, but how could he be like this if Lin Sen wasn't 100% sure?
And Ben Gordon is like an ant on a hot pot. If he doesn't come out, there is no doubt that he will become the one everyone laughs at. Ben Gordon knows his defensive ability very well, so it will be very easy for him to go out.
He will probably be beaten into pieces by Lin Sen.
Just when Ben Gordon was about to do it, Lin Sen let go of the ball and turned toward the audience with his hands spread out in a helpless manner.
The Magic fans at the scene immediately started booing, and the Chicago Bulls fans felt ashamed of themselves, even though they knew how bad Ben Gordon's defensive ability was.
Hinrich glanced at the hesitant Ben. Gordon thought for a moment and decided to defend Lin Sen.
"Ben Gordon has lost confidence in his defense. Even though he doesn't have this ability, he shouldn't back down at this time. This is not what a man should do. Of course, I have to say that Wood is too bad." Barkley smiled.
said.
"Kirk walked towards Linsen..." When Kenny Smith looked at Hinrich walking towards Linsen, Ben Gordon shouted out not far away.
"Kirk, I'll do it myself." After finishing speaking, Ben Gordon walked straight towards Lin Sen.
"Ben Gordon finally stood up, and the Bulls fans at the United Center gave him applause. Obviously they were very pleased with Ben Gordon's manly behavior, even if it might not take five seconds for them to be depressed about Ben Gordon's defensive behavior.
Terrible performance," said Kenny Smith.
Ben Gordon looked at Lin Sen carefully and kept cheering himself up in his heart.
"He's just a rookie, it's no big deal."
"I can definitely guard against him!"
"Benjamin, believe in yourself, you can do it."
"Third grade guy, you look very nervous? Are you worried that I will beat you up?" Lin Sen said with a smile while dribbling the ball.
Ben Gordon did not reply, but focused his attention entirely on Lin Sen. He did not want to waste his extra attention on saliva.
"Wow, I have never seen Ben Gordon with such a defensive attitude." Barkley said in a condescending manner.
"Come on Benjamin!"
"You can definitely guard against that damn rookie."
"Come on, let him know your defensive abilities."
…
The cheers from the audience reached the ears of Ben Gordon, who was already lacking in confidence. Ben Gordon opened his arms to expand his defensive area as much as possible.
Lin Sen in front of him looked unusually relaxed. The close-up shot of the live broadcast completely showed the relaxation of Lin Sen's expression to the eyes of fans around the world.
"It seems that Wood is not worried at all about Ben Gordon who is playing serious defense. Is this a tragedy for Ben Gordon?" Kenny Smith made a rare joke.
"Of course, you will be very angry when you find that your opponent is serious but looks relaxed, but when you are angry and still find that you can't beat your opponent, it feels very good, haha." Barkley said with an exaggerated smile.
"Do you believe I can shoot the ball directly?" Lin Sen raised the corner of his mouth.
Ben Gordon still ignored him and stared at Lin Sen closely.
At this moment, Lin Sen and Ben Gordon are standing just to the right of the top of the arc. This distance is Lin Sen's most familiar shooting spot.
"I really made the shot."
Ben Gordon remained unmoved, but at this time Lin Sen really quickly retracted his right foot, and at the same time, he lifted the ball with both hands and put his feet on it.
"Damn, you really shot!" Ben Gordon cursed in his heart and jumped up without thinking.
His height is only about two centimeters shorter than Lin Sen, a gap that is almost negligible, and his physical fitness is also very good. However, Ben Gordon does not expect to block Lin Sen. He only hopes to interfere.
When Lin Sen took action, he heard the sound of iron striking that he wanted to hear.
Ben Gordon jumped up and soon discovered that the rookie in front of him was still on the ground.
He immediately realized that he had faked a move and was annoyed by his defensive nervousness.
However, Lin Sen did not take the opportunity to break through 20 and jumped directly towards him. Ben Gordon immediately knew that this rookie was trying to deceive him into a three-point foul. Ben Gordon tried hard to take back his hand, but was still a beat slow.
.
When Lin Sen's arm came up, Bavetta's whistle sounded immediately.
"Ben Gordon's defense is still so good, he jumps really high, haha." Barkley said proudly.
"Want to score four points?" The depressed Ben Gordon read Lin Sen's thoughts from Lin Sen's smile.
"I'll never let you score four points."
Ben Gordon growled in his heart and increased his strength on his hands.
Lin Sen did not expect that Ben Gordon would suddenly exert force, and he was caught off guard and lost his original center of gravity and fell backwards.
Faced with the sudden change, Lin Sen looked at the basket as much as possible. When his whole body and the floor formed an angle of almost 60 degrees, Lin Sen pushed the ball out with his right hand.
Looking at Ben Gordon's facial expression, Lin Sen smiled.
"Wood, a chance to hit a four-pointer, a super fade-away three-pointer!" Kenny Smith shouted.
Bulls fans at the United Center hoped to use their boos to blow the ball out of the air and away from the goal.
The ball rose higher and higher in the air, then dropped from the highest point and fell straight to the basket under everyone's gaze.
Bang!
Lin Sen fell to the floor. Although the shot was awkward, he felt good the moment he took the shot. Lying on the floor, Lin Sen clenched his right hand into a fist and raised it high.
Whoosh!
A crisp sound of wiping the net caused the United Center to fall into brief silence.
"Thank you for the extra gift. Maybe you can consider letting Kirk defend me. If you insist on defending me, then today will be your day of rejuvenation." Lin Sen jumped up and said to Ben Gordon with a smile.
