Devin Booker picked up the ball and sent it out with a depressed look on his face.

Here, when Lin Tian returned to defense, he high-fived several teammates one by one to celebrate.

Brandon Knight dribbled the ball to the Suns' frontcourt, and he hit a three-pointer against Lou Williams' defense, finally stopping the Suns from bleeding.

But they know this is only temporary.

Because once the Lakers' No. 23 rookie charges forward, no one can stop him.

Lin Tian has played alone several times in a row. This time after returning to the frontcourt, he did not ask for the ball, but pointed inside to Lu Wei.

The Lakers have many talents who are good at offense, and Lu Wei is one of the best.

Last season with the Raptors, Lou Williams won the Sixth Man of the Year award.

There are more than 300 NBA players, and there are more substitutes than starters. The best sixth man is basically equal to the MVP among the substitutes. Lu Wei's strength is evident.

However, Lu Wei's defensive ability has been criticized, and this is indeed the case. Both his defensive awareness and height are his disadvantages.

With the ball in hand, Lu Wei showed his extraordinary offensive power with the ball, and he directly hit the inside.

Although Lu Wei, who rushed inside, did not make the ball, he caused a foul on the opponent.

He made two free throws, and the rhythm of both sides gradually slowed down.

Next, the Lakers' tactics were also quite simple.

Lin Tian plays after Lu Wei plays, and Lu Wei plays after Nick Young plays.

Among the three, Lin Tian has the best touch. He has already gained experience in playing PJ Tucker.

Whether it's a layup after a breakthrough or a pull-up jump shot, the shooting percentage is frighteningly high.

As for Lin Tian's defense, the entire third quarter was almost over, and Booker, who he was responsible for defending, basically didn't touch the ball.

The defense of both teams is very poor, so whoever's offense is smoother will have a much greater chance of winning.

In the first three quarters of today's game, the Lakers' offense was obviously stronger.

Lin Tian played the entire third quarter.

During the break, he looked at his statistics: 30 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 5 steals and 2 blocks.

His shooting percentage today was close to 80%.

The Lakers also lead the Suns by 17 points.

The main reason is because the Suns' rookie Booker is completely restricted by Lin Tian.

Their 3D player Tucker also had nothing to do against Lin Tian.

While Scott was drawing tactics on the tactical board, Kobe came over and said: "Lin! You have a chance to win the first double-double in your career today!"

Lin Tian smiled and nodded: "Yes, there are still two rebounds left."

In fact, he spent most of the third quarter guarding Devin Booker.

Booker is a shooting guard and basically floats on the outside, so Lin Tian didn't get many rebounds in the third quarter, only 2.

"Work harder!" Kobe said, "As long as we beat them! We won't be last in the Western Conference!"

The Suns and Lakers' wins are only one game apart. Today's direct dialogue will have a great impact on the rankings.

Either the Lakers can secure their last position, or they can become second to last.

Although the management of both teams wants to mess up, there is no doubt that the players on the field want to win.

After the start of the fourth quarter, Lin Tian took a break and the Lakers sent in several substitute players, including Nick Young.

Scott didn't have high demands on them, he just asked them to stabilize the status quo.

Who knew that they would really not be able to stabilize after the start.

At this time, the Suns were still all starting players. Taking advantage of Lin Tian's absence, Booker rarely got the ball.

The man guarding him is Clarkson.

Clarkson is shorter than Lin Tian, ​​and his defense is not at the same level as Lin Tian.

For Booker, he was like a man who had been holding his breath in the water for a long time, and now he could finally come up and breathe.

Catching a pick-and-roll from Brandon Knight, Booker briefly got rid of Clarkson, then he raised his hand and shot, hitting a three-pointer.

After the Lakers moved the ball to the frontcourt, the ball was in Russell's hands.

Neither Nick Young nor Clarkson moved. They are not the kind of players who like to move.

Russell stretched out his hand to direct, and then chose to go it alone.

Although he passed his defender, the Suns' defense was timely, which directly caused Russell's mistake.

Taking advantage of this mistake, the Suns succeeded in fast break.

The Suns started the game with a score of 5:0.

It hadn't even been a minute, and Scott didn't call a timeout.

The ball went to the Lakers, and Nick Young held the ball.

Both Russell and Randle know Nick Young's character and it is not easy for him to pass the ball.

Sure enough, after some dribbling, Nick Young shot the ball in his hand.

This ball is relatively difficult to throw, and Nick Young happens to be the kind of person who likes to throw difficult balls.

After the ball traces an arc in the air, it bangs like a strike.

Tucker, who was near the paint area, protected the rebound and then passed the ball to Booker.

Booker quickly dribbled the ball to the Suns' frontcourt and faced Russell's defense and shot the ball again.

Then he set his sights on Lin Tian on the Lakers bench, full of provocation.

The fourth quarter started 8:0! The Lakers fans at the scene had already booed, obviously dissatisfied with the performance of the home team.

Klee, the big-mouthed guy in the studio, also laughed: "As soon as Lin of the Lakers came off the field, Booker came to life!"

Smith nodded: "Lin bullied Booker! Booker can only make trouble for Russell! This rookie class is full of energy!"

Although Devin Booker had no chance to take action under Lin Tian's defense, he still scored 25 points today.

Most of these points were scored when Lin Tian was off the court.

On the court, Scott originally wanted Lin Tian to rest for a while, but when the Suns successfully defended another ball and successfully counterattacked, he had no choice but to call a timeout.

At this time, the Lakers only led by 7 points.

There were more than 9 minutes left in the fourth quarter, and they still hadn't scored a point.

Scott, who has always had a good temper, couldn't help but raise his voice.

He kept talking about sharing the ball, but he didn't know how many people could listen.

The timeout ended and Lin Tian returned to battle.

Booker frowned when he saw Lin Tian playing again.

But the few points he scored just now have allowed him to regain some confidence! He must find his place again!

The ball currently belongs to the Lakers. After Lin Tian got the ball, he directly hit the inside.

Suns center Chandler and power forward hurriedly blocked the paint area.

The space was compressed, and Lin Tian rarely passed the ball to Nick Young on the wing.

The Suns' attention was almost all on Lin Tian. Nick Young got an open opportunity. He adjusted his shooting angle and finally made a three-pointer.

Witnessing Nick Young's goal, Lin Tian quickly returned to defense.

Booker had just passed half-court with the ball, and Lin Tian opened his arms and reached over.

At this time, PJ Tucker took the initiative to play a pick-and-roll for Booker. They also knew that facing Lin Tian in singles would not work, and they had to use a pick-and-roll.

Tucker's strong body blocked Lin Tian.

Booker took advantage of the opportunity and wanted to get into the paint, but as soon as he passed Tucker with the ball and was about to hit the inside, he felt a gust of wind blowing by, and then realized that the basketball he just hit the floor did not return to his palm.

…

When he reacted, he realized that Lin Tian had already bypassed Tucker and snatched the ball from his hand!

With everything in sight, Lin Tian fired up the atmosphere with another slam dunk.
Chapter completed!
