The era of point forwards in the NBA

Chapter 155 This Experience Is Too Bad (Seeking Subscription, Asking For A Monthly Pass)
"Lin Yue's consecutive scoring helped Davidson College catch up with only 8 points." Barkley said.

"The offense is no problem now, how to defend becomes the key." Durant said in the auditorium.

Curry looked at the formation on the court. Now the Davidson Wildcats' tactics are different from the original.

The two clamped Blake Griffin tightly under the basket, did not give any chance to catch the ball, and put pressure on the defense around the front.

This time Blake Griffin did not go out to meet, but Taylor Griffin went out.

After making a cover for his teammates, he lobbed it to Griffin.

Boris, who has been tired of physical confrontation, finally seized this opportunity and shot the ball before Griffin received an alley.

"The quality of the pass wasn't good," Barkley said.

"Good shot." Lin Yue rushed forward to catch the ball before it crossed the baseline.

This is an opportunity to fight back.

Blake Griffin desperately chased back. After Lin Yue caught the ball and gave it to Richards, Griffin ran towards him to try to block the block.

Richards passed back to Lin Yue, who was keeping up with him. He couldn't defend against the first defense and the second defense, and Lin Yue picked up the basket and scored again.

After scoring 6 points in a row, the scene fell into silence. In the second half, Lin Yue suddenly switched to offensive mode, while Griffin continued to play in the same way as in the first half.

Jeff Kapoor added a timeout. The team now needs to adjust. If Blake has to defend and attack at the same time, it will consume too much energy.

"Blake, you just need to focus on offense. The other Chinese players will double-team to save your energy. Positional warfare requires your dominance at the basket." Jeff Kapoor didn't want Griffin to be disturbed. Both sides knew the importance of this game, but it was hard for the manager not to be moved by his dominance at the basket.

"Calm down, the champion is yours, and no one can take it away. What we need to care about now is how to win this inevitable victory."

Hearing what the coach said, Blake Griffin also calmed down from Lin Yue's provocation. He wanted to go to the NBA to prove himself. The NCAA is just a step. With his current physical fitness, he can make a name for himself in the NBA, which is full of strong players. Now it's a bit of a dimensionality reduction attack, and it's unnecessary.

Back from the timeout, facing double-teamed Blake Griffin ran to catch the ball near the three-point line, and did nothing with the pick-and-roll. He wanted to show the scouts on the scene his ability to attack with the ball.

In the past, it was very cool to abuse the frame at the basket. He was not willing to go out of the penalty area, score and rebound, and the statistics were so exaggerated, which caused some scouts to doubt his ability to hold the ball.

But his height is only 2.08 meters, which will not affect his dribbling, but it is not necessary, because after entering the NBA, it is estimated that no team will allow such an insider to attack with the ball.

It was Lin Yue who defended. Now Lin Yue's personal defense is not bad, and the outside defense is usually left to him.

With Will and Boris ready to interfere in the paint, there isn't much room for the ball unless Griffin chooses to throw it.

Lin Yue took two steps back, spread his arms wide, lowered his center of gravity, and was ready to defend his breakthrough at any time.

As a result, Griffin chose to shoot directly after changing direction.

"What's the situation with this ball? Do you also have the heart to be a point guard?" Lin Yue immediately flew to interfere, but Griffin jumped a bit high, and such interference was futile.

"What the hell is this shot choice? Did Blake give up his advantage and choose a dribble shot to respond to Lin Yue?" Barkley said.

This ball is obviously not shot. Blake has not done this kind of action in many NCAA games. It is not what he should do to break through and shoot with the ball.

Will stuck Tyler Griffin at the basket, and Boris successfully got a defensive rebound.

Richards dribbled the ball across half court, and this time the Oklahoma Speeders retreated quickly.

The fast break was impossible, and Lin Yue held the ball at the top of the arc.

Will ran to cover him, Lin Yue took a step back and shot a three-pointer.

"Lin Yue's three-pointer has a very positive arc, and the ball seems to be there." Barkley said.

After the ball hit the board, it refracted into the frame, and then made a three-pointer.

"After the timeout ended, Lin Yue's offensive thinking became clearer. The most important thing is that he feels really good. He hasn't missed a shot in the second half. This timeout seems to be called by Davidson, so that Lin Yue can take a breath." Barkley joked.

Curry on the sidelines was stunned. Has he even learned three-pointers?I am really down.

"It seems that today's scouts are not easy to do. Lin Yue's competitiveness seems to be no worse than Griffin's. He has a stable offense and organizes the team. Even though Griffin's physical talent is outstanding, Lin Yue is like a natural leader." Durant said.

"Yeah, it depends on when he realizes it himself." Curry said, Lin Yue is still in the period of confusion and search, he himself still doesn't understand, in fact, he is the leader on the court, and his teammates will play tactics around him unconsciously.

"Now I know why Lin Yue's nickname is the 'Big Devil'. His performance on the court is too calm, like an old gun, giving people a feeling of Chris Paul. He has a strong ability to handle the ball, and he can also attack with the ball. But his height is too high, which gives him an advantage when facing point guards."

Barkley is also starting to struggle now, asking him to choose one of the two, he doesn't know who to choose, and now he wants to take back what he said in the first half, because Lin Yue's start in the second half was too explosive.

Seeing his opponent stealing the show at home, Griffin was a little angry.

Then he began to dominate Davidson's penalty area, grabbing two from the basket to get offensive rebounds, and making progress against Boris' defense.

The referee's whistle sounded, "It's two plus one, and Blake has started his show again."

Barkley couldn't help but smile bitterly. The two of them competed, and it was the other players who suffered. It was not easy to be a talented opponent that day, but it was not easy to be a talented teammate that day.

Next, Lin Yue was taken care of by double teams.

"Now it's up to him to deal with the double-team." Durant watched with gusto. Lin Yue was beyond his expectations. Although the Thunder now have Curry to handle the ball, it was a waste of his scoring talent. If Lin Yue came, he would perfectly solve this problem. In addition, the two were teammates before, a bold idea was born in Durant's mind.

In the case of double-teaming, personal offense is somewhat reluctant, so Lin Yue began to organize the offense.

First, he successfully fed the cake under the basket, and Will scored two points.

After a summer of training, he has the ability to help the team at critical moments.

Griffin didn't stop his performance here, and this time he got an offensive rebound and made a strong score.

"Mmp, this is too foul, I really can't grab it." Boris is not shorter than Griffin, but he just can't grab it, which makes him very depressed.

The whole experience was bad.

However, it was impossible for Lin Yue to play the entire game in the regular season. Seeing that the score was stable, McKillop replaced him.
