Chapter 300: Highest Score in the Playoffs
The big lineup was directly beaten by pick-and-roll outside, and the small lineup could not prevent a center jump shot, especially when Lin Sen felt good. Even if the Pacers now had poor feel, they would not dare to completely empty the opponent's shooter.
After being overtaken, the Raptors seemed anxious. DeRozan, who had just returned to the court after resting, directly hit a mid-range shot to equalize the score, and scored to stop the bleeding. DeRozan was not ruthless because of Lin Sen's explosion on the opponent.
According to the media, this defender who is plagued by depression and is very affected by the state on the court has difficulty playing against the wind. Every time the Raptors are in a state of headwind, then it is often Lowry and Valanciulos who stand out. But this time, this guy stood up toughly.
George scratched his head helplessly. He really tried his best to do this ball, but the guy on the opposite side seemed to have opened a plug-in and it seemed like he had opened a plug-in! It seems that he hasn't been to worship for a long time, and even God is not on his side?
Lin Sen's feel inevitably began to slide down. There is nothing we can do about this. If Lin Sen really keeps this feel, Ibaka may be about to retire.
But that's it, because after the opening game was like a 14-pointer at the beginning, he still scored 22 points in the third quarter in a single quarter.
"Lin has scored 36 points! It is very close to his first 40 game in the playoffs." In addition to the offensive method that is not the way he wants to dominate everything in the penalty area but a jump shot, O'Neal was very satisfied with Linson's performance in this quarter.
"The key point is that the Raptors performed well today, while the other Pacers players performed very well, which forced the strongest Lin! Let Lin have enough ball rights and enough offensive desire on the offensive end. Now the scores of the two teams are similar. In the fourth quarter, for the Raptors, which is already behind 0:2, every point must be fought for."
The Raptors have to try their best to play their own game. Don’t be anxious about whether you can win the game, but play the game now.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, both sides played all the main players, and the Raptors also replaced the big lineup. Lin Sen's 22 points in a single quarter just now forced them to choose to put an inside line in the inside that could prevent Lin Sen from breaking through. Then Ibaka must stick it over to prevent Lin Sen's jump shot. This jump shot is too dangerous and too capable of killing people.
The third quarter was almost the whole quarter, and Lin Sen, who started directly in the fourth game, had an average physical strength. The Raptors' double-team still played a certain role. Lin Sen could only pass the ball, but the Pacers, who had been almost the whole game, finally found their touch at the last moment of the game!
Lin Sen passed the ball in the penalty area and found George on the outside. The All-Star scored only 13 points tonight. Lin Sen's pass directly made his score reach 16 points!
The outside line is also opened? Casey frowned and looked at the scene off the court. The big reason why the Raptors were able to fight with the Pacers to this level today is that the Pacers' outside line is very strong and they are in good condition. They can still lead slightly when Lin Sen plays so fiercely. However, if the Pacers also open the outside line and interact with Lin Sen, this may not be a good omen. Such Pacers may not be able to beat even if they are in good condition!
Three-pointers? Two-pointers? Now the Raptors must give up some defense and have to let the opponent get some opportunities. While Casey was still struggling, the Pacers' second three-pointer came again. Gordon, the best three-pointer from the Pacers, made this time helping the Pacers finish the overtake again.
The two consecutive three-pointers have made the Raptors dare not focus their defense on Lin Sen anymore! If this continues, they are probably going to be shot directly by the opponent's three-pointer.
However, as soon as the pressure on the inside was relaxed, Lin Sen found an opportunity to attack. This time he did not go to pick-and-roll to beat Valanciolos from outside. Lin Sen was looking for opportunities directly in the inside to challenge this 216cm big center.
There are no other gorgeous moves. Lin Sen challenged Valanciolos' defense again and again with his own steps. Lin Sen's dreamy steps have evolved further recently, which has a lot to do with the huge improvement of his left-hand dribbling ability.
Drip the ball with his left hand and test the left foot. These are things that were difficult to see on Lin Sen before. Valanciolos couldn't react from the fake move on the left. Lin Sen simply started to accelerate with his left foot, and caught him off guard. His dunk in the inside was the 38th point in this game!
This round is Valanciulos, and the next round is Ibaka. After the fake move, he turned outward and leaned back. It was very difficult, but for Lin Sen, who felt explosive tonight, this ball was not too difficult. 40th point! Lin Sen has broken his highest score in the playoffs
"Lin has scored 40 points, and when he plays Sergi, he shoots in the mid-range shot, and when he plays Yonas breaks through. His decision is very calm. He faces different defensive players and uses different defensive methods. This is Lin's offense." The biggest Lin Chui-O'Neal went online! He almost never stopped complimenting Lin Sen in his mouth, after all, it was the last card for the center!
Lowry's breakthrough was stopped, and the pass was transferred to DeRozan's hand. The latter continued to break through and attack the inside. George and Lin Sen were in charge of Lin Sen, so he didn't have much chance to enter the inside. He turned his back and shot directly, but this time he made a blacksmith!
Feng Shui took turns, the Pacers recovered from the outside, and the Raptors' good condition lasted for three and a half quarters and then was directly beaten by Lin Sen's brave attack!
The Raptors, who were still ahead at the beginning of the fourth quarter, were overtaken and the score difference was slowly widened.
Casey was so angry that he smashed the tactical board directly on the ground. What's the point? It means that he has already played in such a state or is he not qualified to win?
This is the game with the smallest score difference in the Pacers' playoff victory, 106:99. Lin Sen was still on the court until the last two minutes. He finally broke the things that many people discussed in this game. Can Lin Sen win 40? This time, the data of 44 points, 15 rebounds, 3 assists, 4 blocks and 1 steal almost supported the entire situation of the Pacers.
