Chapter 95: The First Graduation (Part 2)

James on the Cavaliers bench stood up and cheered for Lin Sen's block before he even finished drinking the energy drink in his hand.

"LeBron, keep your energy. If you change it, it's not like you to waving the towel. The second half of the game is even more difficult." Tyron Lu, who was standing beside him, hurriedly grabbed James, who seemed to be unable to control himself and wanted to rush to the field.

This block is very beautiful, giving the Cavaliers a chance to counterattack quickly to the frontcourt. Lin Sen fell to the ground because of the block, and Leonard was the same. He was 4-on-4 in the frontcourt, but the Spurs lacked one outside line. Aldridge has always done a very average job in assisting defense.

The Cavaliers foursome who passed the fast attack ended the attack with a three-pointer after passing. With this offensive and defense at the last moment, the Cavaliers ended the first half with a 6-point advantage of 57:51.

On the way back to the locker room, Lin Sen really felt that his consumption just now was sore and weak all over his body, and he felt that he was even more tired than playing a whole quarter in the usual game.

"Lin, I like your fighting spirit on the court. This is the inside iron gate we want." James deliberately waited at the entrance of the player passage to go back to the locker room with Lin Sen. He used to think that Lin Sen had always lacked something. Now it seems that he has a pursuit of victory and is very clear about his own problems, but he is too afraid of his weaknesses.

The physical confrontation is poor, so even if you practice more, you don’t like physical confrontation. However, sometimes physical confrontation is often the best way to defend. Lin Sen’s determination in physical confrontation in this quarter surprised James, and the effect was also very good. The only hidden danger is the three fouls caused by excessive physical confrontation.

No surprise, in the third quarter, the Spurs indeed changed their offensive center of gravity, from the outside to the inside, or from the outside to Lin Sen.

Aldridge obviously received the order and started to target Lin Sen at the beginning of the second half. When he held the ball, he did not intend to use jump shots to attack at the beginning, but began to fully wield his body.

Experience and two-in-one technology have made Lin Sen's best actor skill play no role at all. Lin Sen still did not escape the fate of being "studying". This is the compulsory education that every rookie should receive in the first year of entering the NBA. Perhaps Lin Sen is facing many players, even quasi-All-stars like Lopez, who play well, but this does not mean that Lin Sen can escape this stage.

Aldridge helped Lin Sen go through the compulsory courses that all NBA rookies should accept, but Lin Sen did not plan to take the course for too long. Immediately, he began to strengthen his physical confrontation with Aldridge, although his physical confrontation ability was a little unsustainable when facing Aldridge, who was probably close to 10 pounds in the Spurs.

After the actor's skills, there was a black hole on the court, and Olajuwon's skills finally gave him a chance, and he successfully made a counterattack. However, after that, Lin Sen could only use fouls to stop Aldridge's attack.

With five fouls in three quarters, such "foul efficiency" is unprecedented for Lin Sen, but the protection of the penalty area is unprecedented. Popovich does not like three-pointers very much, and the Spurs' offense does not have many choices for three-pointers. In the GDP, only Ginobili's three-point ability can be seen, which means that more offenses will be placed in the penalty area, but tonight the Spurs did not succeed in the penalty area. The big reason is that Lin Sen's protection of the penalty area is very successful.

On the contrary, the Cavaliers' three-pointers began to increase tonight. If the Spurs play a double tower combination like Aldridge and Duncan, they will be shot through by the Cavaliers' three-pointers, not to mention the center like Lin Sen who is active at the edge of the three-point line for most of the time in the offensive period.

At 31:24 in the third quarter, the Cavaliers once again expanded their lead advantage, leading by 13 points at 88:75, and 88 points in three quarters under a defensive strong team like the Spurs. Such offensive efficiency made the Cavaliers extremely satisfied.

However, the Spurs did not intend to give up the game just like this. They still had a lot to do in the next quarter. What was even more unexpected was that at the beginning of the fourth quarter, the Spurs still saw Lin Sen, who still fouled five times, remained on the court.

There is no way, the Cavaliers' frame protection almost all rely on Linsen. Blatt regretted that he had known that Linsen had played so hard tonight that he shouldn't have taken Mozgov off. But now Linsen continues to play in the fourth quarter, it is undoubtedly a dangerous thing.

"Wow, the Cavaliers are very brave, Charles, let's make a bet. Lin will go to the bench in the next minute, I guess within three minutes." O'Neal also couldn't believe it, staring at the tall and thin figure on the field with wide eyes.

"Three minutes? More than that, there is such a big lead at this time. If I were Lin, I must protect myself, and then..." Before he finished speaking, a whistle sounded on the court. Lin Sen was sent off after receiving his sixth foul. The slap in the face was too fast, like a tornado.

Barkley looked at the field with a confused look on his face. Can Lin Sen be more powerful if he supports Lin Sen so much? Lin Sen really doesn't give up any inch of land for today's Cavaliers penalty area. This is also the biggest reason why he ended efficiently after only 28 minutes of appearance.

Blatt had no choice but to change to TT, he began to worry about the team's defense in the inside and whether anyone could calm Aldridge down.

However, unexpectedly, Aldridge did not pursue the victory and continued to attack the Cavaliers' inside, which puzzled Blatfast.

"David, he is tired too. He basically attacked for two quarters, otherwise do you really think Lin would be sent down so simply?" Or did Tyron Lu see it thoroughly at this time, and Aldridge was also in a state of physical strength. In order to defeat Lin Sen early, break through, pull out, fake moves, and singles are undoubtedly the most physically consuming way of attacking. In order to make Lin Sen fully graduated, Aldridge played a lot more singles tonight than usual. This also made his physical strength empty much faster than before.
