Kenny Smith, who was sitting in the commentary seat, could no longer control his mouth: "Let's see how Lin played tonight. He made 0 of 1 shots and didn't score a single point. It seems that Lin, who has been out of the battle for a long time, is in a bad state tonight."

This passage is full of sarcastic scent. Isn’t it just a satirizing myself for absent from training? This guy is really a grudge.

Lin Yang curled his lips. It was still early to play, not to mention that he was not without teammates.

He gave a wink at Landry Fields, who said he received it immediately.

The two of them appeared together in the middle of the second quarter, and in the first round when they returned to the court, Lin Yang finally got the ball at a time when there was plenty of time.

Facing Stephen Curry, who had just hit two three-pointers on his head in a row, he had to hit a little back.

A very large crossover shook Curry's center of gravity, and Curry's left side of defense was completely empty.

Zuo did not take the opportunity to break through the basket, but when Curry returned to position, he pulled him back and threw him away again, rushed into the inside and made a layup.

Lin Yang is a bit cheap in this regard. In fact, he also likes to be so mean in this way during the regular season.

If you break through for the first time, you don’t have to rush to pass immediately. If you just return to the position of the opposite center, you will usually do it once or twice in one game, but you can hit people in just one or two times.

The breakthrough of Lin Yang just played back again and again on the big screen, which is probably the most serious defense for everyone on the All-Star.

Many people, especially in 2016, developed Curry's tactic of attacking as long as he defends, which made many people feel that Curry is a defensive loophole.

In fact, this is just that Curry's defense is the weakest compared to Thompson and Barnes. Moreover, Curry is an offensive core and a shooter. It is easy to affect his feel when consuming his physical strength on the defensive end. In fact, in all point guards in the entire league, his defense is pretty good, especially for small defenses.

"Lin's breakthrough is really wonderful."

"I have only watched it on TV, but I have to say that Lin Bing's All-Star stage will definitely be the loss of the All-Star. His breakthrough is the most enjoyable I have ever seen. This crossover's luck is so silky."

Although Los Angeles fans also want Blake Griffin to become the MVP of the Rookie Challenge, this does not prevent them from cheering for Lin Yang's breakthrough.

It just depends on Landry Fields to pass the ball to himself and want to score enough points. It seems a bit too little for a player like himself to have a high ball.

Sophomore players seem to like to shoot three-pointers very much. Just now, James Harden, who just led the half, also raised his hand and made a three-pointer.

Curry and Harden, this is the player with the most three-pointers in the future, and it is already an early appearance in this rookie challenge.

However, Harden's touch was obviously not as good as Curry's, and this three-pointer missed a long rebound.

The key to running and shooting in defense is to protect the rebounds for all players, because they basically don’t have such things as big centers. If you want to avoid the opponent’s big center dominating the basket, then you have to work hard for all players.

Just like a famous Japanese center in the 1990s said: Mastering rebounding means controlling the game.

In the Knicks, everyone has to grab rebounds. Although Lin Yang averages only 3 rebounds per game, he is still a good player in terms of rebounds, such as his sense of rebounds at this time.

After Lin Yang won the game, he quickly started to push back and attack, and the speed was very fast. James Harden stood at the end of the entire defensive formation because of a three-pointer.

However, this is just a rookie challenge. Harden doesn't seem to want to defend seriously, so he symbolically stretched out his hand to express it.

But Lin Yang's personality is not because you just stretched out your hand, so I slowly slipped over next to you.

The man scored the ball, and before Harden could react, he was operated by Lin Yang. It was really not difficult to score the man scored the ball, because at this time, Harden was like a wooden stake and was not serious at all.

But after this operation, Harden was stunned. If he didn't defend himself, he would still break through like this to humiliate me. The bearded man immediately shook his anger.

Harden is not the traffic commander who is the big brother of the Rockets a few years later. As the sixth player of the team in the Thunder, he and Jeff Green are the vanguards of the Thunder's outside defense.

Originally, I planned to play with you as an ordinary second-year rookie, but I got the humiliation of you like this. I had no choice but to show my true annoyance and "take off" the rookie challenge jersey and put on the Thunder jersey. Now I am the Thunder's defensive gate.

Indeed, at this time, Harden was the best player in the Thunder's outside defense. When they entered the playoffs for the first time last year, they faced the defending champion Lakers. His task was to defend Kobe. Although he was eliminated 2-4, it must be said that he did a pretty good job.

Harden defended seriously, but it was not Lin Yang, but John Wall who suffered. After the change of direction, Harden directly pressed the breakthrough and completed a counter-attack, and then completed a one-stop dunk in a fast break.

OK! Now it's the No. 1 pick that is unhappy.

The rhythm of the second quarter began to change after Lin Yang's attack. Not to mention whether the two teams played more seriously, but at least they loved the defensive end and wanted to complete the sprint dunk as they did at the beginning.

The rhythm was brought up unknowingly. At this time, the players on the court no longer had time to isolate Lin Yang or not. If you have the chance, you will pass it.

It was like a sword. Li Yunlong fired the first shot quietly, and the whole northwestern Shanxi was in chaos. Finally, Li Yunlong made a fortune in silence.

And so is Lin Yang!

The whole rhythm was led by his two breakthroughs. He was involved in the two players who held the most balls in the second grade. Can the rhythm of the second grade be raised?

He knew very well that if he continued to play at the rhythm of the performance at the beginning, let alone the Rookie Challenge MVP, it would be nice to be able to score double-digit points in this game.

Therefore, if you break this performance nature, you can only open the first shot by yourself and make both sides get angry.

At the end of the half, Lin Yang scored 16 points in 8 minutes in the second quarter. Compared with other rookies in the first grade, he played in the Knicks for half a season and was an excellent ball holder and an excellent empty cutter. Many opportunities were made in his place, so naturally, there were not many balls passed to him.

57:52, the first-year lead is 5 points. The score of this half is placed in the All-Star Rookie Challenge, which is the lowest score you can compete for in history.
