Chapter 126: Another dunk? The Auburn Hills incident happened ahead of schedule!
Although Larry Brown was angry, he was not a fool. He knew very well that Rashid alone could not restrict Lin Yu.
He said to Ben, "Ben, give priority to restricting Lin Yu in the second half, even if it means strategically giving up defending Okur!"
"Okay, coach!" Big Ben agreed immediately.
The game restarts in the second half.
Rivers directly replaced the starting lineup with West and Tony.
The Pistons started with the Pistons' Big Five.
As soon as Lin Yu received the ball in the high position, Big Ben immediately prepared to assist in defense.
Seeing that the opponent double-teamed him so quickly, Lin Yu didn't hesitate at all and chose to pass the ball directly.
After receiving the ball in the right corner, Okur shot a three-pointer without any hesitation.
Swish!
The basketball went into the net, Lin Yu assisted +1.
"Nice pass! Lin Yu's pass caused the Dream Team a lot of trouble in the Olympics. Now it seems that the Pistons may find it difficult to limit Lin Yu!"
Smith also expressed his feelings at this time.
Larry Brown on the sidelines frowned slightly.
He had indeed seen Lin Yu's passing at the Olympics.
Then Larry Brown's eyes were filled with confidence again.
He has confidence in Big Ben and Rashid. Facing the double-team, even Lin Yu cannot complete the pass so easily every time!
then……
"After receiving the pass from Lin Yu, Mehmet Okur took another three-point shot! Hit!"
“This is Mehmet Okur’s third three-pointer in the third quarter!”
"Today, Mehmet Okur was like Larry Bird possessed, making three of four three-pointers in a single quarter!"
I heard Barkley start praising Okur's three-pointer.
Smith added: "Charles, I don't think it's surprising how many open three-pointers Okur makes, after all, he always shoots wide open."
"I felt like Lin Yu was possessed by a magician today. His passes were so accurate that the Pistons had no way to deal with him!"
"You're right, Kenny. Without double-teaming, Rashid can't defend Lin Yu by himself. If double-teaming, Lin Yu can always pass the ball to assist his teammates."
At this point, a hint of shock flashed in Barkley's eyes.
"Before the game started, I thought the Pistons had no pressure to beat the Celtics."
"But the facts proved that I was wrong, and I was very wrong. Lin Yu alone led the entire team's offense."
"Even if the Celtics lost to the Pistons today, I would not think that this Celtics team is a bottom-ranked team!"
“They are definitely a strong team with playoff potential!”
When old Buss, who was watching TV, heard Barkley's words, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes and a wry smile appeared on his face.
"The Celtics picked a player who can shoulder the future. It's hard to say whether the Lakers can make the playoffs this season, not to mention the future!"
This season, due to the disintegration of the OK combination, Zen Master also resigned as the head coach of the Lakers.
The person who took over was Rudy Tomjanovich, the head coach who said "Never underestimate the heart of a champion."
Then the Lakers, at this time, had a record of 2 wins and 1 loss.
In that winning game, the team defeated the Warriors, a bottom-ranked team in the Western Conference.
The Lakers in the original history did not make it to the playoffs.
On the court, seeing that Okur was performing like Curry was possessed, Larry Brown called a timeout.
This is crazy...
If the Pistons keep shooting like this, they're really going to be killed!
The two sides continued to engage in positional warfare.
After three quarters, the Celtics tied with the Pistons 61:61.
In the fourth quarter, the game resumed.
The king of the final quarter is online!
Lin Yu held the ball in a high position, facing Rasheed Wallace.
At this time, the fans at the Palace of Auburn Hills were still cursing.
"Trash like you can never beat the Pistons!"
"Look at the championship banner in the sky. You will never have a championship in your life!"
"The Celtics are doomed to fail in front of the Pistons!"
"..."
Lin Yu ignored the fans' abuse and started to play against Rasheed with the ball. He made a big change of direction and broke through Rasheed Wallace on the right.
Rashid reacted quickly and moved to Lin Yu's right to block his breakthrough.
Lin Yu then made another drastic change of direction and broke through Rashid on the left.
This time Rashid didn't have time to block Lin Yu's breakthrough route.
But Rashid's reaction was also very quick, and he was only one body length behind Lin Yu. At this time, he was still desperately chasing and defending Lin Yu.
Just as Lin Yu rushed into the restricted area, Big Ben also returned to the basket from outside the three-point line.
Facing Da Ben, Lin Yu did not hesitate at all.
Bend your knees and jump.
Da Ben jumped with Lin Yu.
bump!
Accompanied by the sound of muscles colliding, Daben felt a huge impact.
He subconsciously felt something was wrong, but it was too late.
Bang!
With a dunk sound, Big Ben was knocked away by Lin Yu.
The moment Lin Yu landed, the entire Auburn Hills Palace fell into deathly silence.
Countless fans, mouths wide open, stared at all this with dull eyes!
They couldn't believe it!
The Pistons' penalty zone guardian!
Two-time Defensive Player of the Year Ben Wallace!
He was actually blocked directly!
"Oh my God!!! Lin Yu dunked over the best defensive player Ben Wallace!!!"
Barkley, who was commentating on the scene, was also full of disbelief at this time!
At this time, the big screen at the Palace of Auburn Hills began to replay the previous scene.
Lin Yu changed direction continuously to pass Rashid, then sprinted into the penalty area and dunked over Ben.
The whole process was done in one go!
Chic! Elegant!
And explosive!
The fans at the scene also woke up from their shock at this time.
"Oh my god! This dunk is so awesome!"
"I can't believe that Ben got dunked on!"
"Is Lin really an inside player? He is simply a 2-foot-07 guard!"
"..."
on the field.
After Lin Yu dunked over Ben, he turned around and saw Rashid, who was shocked.
bump!
After knocking Rashid away, he started talking trash.
"Rashid, this is the championship team!"
Lin Yu was responding to the trash talk Rashid had thrown at the beginning of the game.
Hearing this, Rashid was instantly overwhelmed with a variety of emotions.
Shame, anger, resentment...
His fists were clenched, veins bulged on his face, and his eyes were full of ferocity.
At this time, Lin Yu's second trash talk also sounded.
In my opinion, the strength of the NBA championship team is not as good as the Dream Team 6
Dream Team Six!
Now it’s a shame for the beautiful family!
Lin Yu's words were extremely damaging.
Rashid became furious and could no longer control his emotions.
He turned around and pushed Lin Yu hard.
"Damn rookie! I'm going to make you pay the price!"
Lin Yu was caught off guard and was pushed down by Rashid.
Tony on the side reacted the fastest. Seeing Lin Yu fall to the ground, he punched Rashid directly.
Beep! ! !
The referee's whistle sounded at this time, and the players on the bench of both sides stood up and rushed to the court.
The entire stadium was instantly in chaos.
The Palace of Auburn Hills incident happened ahead of schedule!
