Paul is equivalent to the brains of the Clippers. Today's game is not over yet, and he has already scored 20+10, a standard double-double.

The connection between this guy and Griffin is really a bit confusing.

The key is that Paul's turnover rate is extremely low, and it's difficult for him to make mistakes.

Lin Tian took the initiative to guard against Paul, causing a joking smile to appear on Paul's face: "Rookie, are you sure you can keep up with me?"

The height difference between the two is extremely obvious. Lin Tian is 2.05 meters and Paul is 1.83 meters. It is difficult to guard against the big one and the small one.

Because players who are too tall are often not as fast as defenders.

Lin Tian grinned, showing his white teeth: "If you don't try it, how will you know that I can't guard you?"

Paul stopped talking. He batted the ball with his left hand and began to direct his teammates' positions with his right hand. It was obvious that he was going to play singles.

This rookie just dunked on his little brother Jordan, he must return the favor today!

Just as Paul waved his hand, Lin Tian stretched out his long arm as fast as lightning and snatched the ball from his hand.

All this happened so fast that Paul himself didn't even react. By the time he reacted and chased Lin Tian, ​​Lin Tian had already run halfway.

"boom!"

Amid the enthusiastic cheers of the audience, Lin Tian rushed to the basket and dunked the ball in!

The atmosphere at the home court has been completely inspired by Lin Tian.

The two ESPN commentators were laughing so hard.

"Hahaha! Cp actually had the ball taken away under his nose!"

"Everyone in the audience, if nothing else happens, you should be able to see that scene on Five Embarrassments tomorrow!"

"The Lakers' No. 23 rookie is so fast! It's hard to believe that he is 2.05 meters tall! Can his knees bear it?"

"Smith, you know, before the game I thought the protagonist tonight would be Kobe or Griffin. Who knew it was a young boy?"

"Who can predict it in advance? Maybe this is the charm of basketball!"

…

Lin Tian's fast break was so fast that his teammates didn't have to rush over, they just stood there and waited for the Clippers to serve.

When returning to defense, before Paul came over with the ball, Kobe took the initiative to high-five Lin Tian: "Hey! I liked your performance just now."

Lin Tian did not reply, but continued to stare at Paul.

The smile was no longer on Paul's face, replaced by seriousness.

As a veteran player who has been famous for a long time, he can't lose face when a rookie easily intercepts the ball.

This time he didn't reach out to give instructions.

As Paul's old teammate, Griffin knew what Paul was thinking. He said to Jordan: "Pull away!"

The two of them attracted Nance Jr. and Hibbert of the Lakers, giving Paul a chance to play in singles.

Paul stared at Lin Tian and started dribbling the ball with his hips.

Two seconds later, Paul suddenly started to speed up, trying to pass Lin Tian.

However, Lin Tian had already predicted Paul's movements, and while stepping back, he stretched out his hand to block Paul's path.

Paul's starting speed was no longer slow, but he couldn't get rid of Lin Tian.

He could only stop and start to change direction drastically.

This is the most common way of playing with a small player against a big player. Through drastic changes in direction, the big man can swing to his own rhythm, thereby making the defender lose his center of gravity and then get rid of the defender.

Paul often uses this move when playing against players taller than him, and it works every time.

But this time, he miscalculated.

When he changed direction again to make a breakthrough, Lin Tian followed Paul and did not lose his position.

His two big hands were like a big net, blocking Paul's path.

Paul once again felt the pressure from this Chinese player.

When he rushed to the paint area, he looked up at the time and saw that the attack time was less than 6 seconds.

At this time, he wanted to pass the ball, but the Lakers' defense was very good this round and did not give him a chance to pass the ball.

In desperation, Paul hurriedly took off and shot a fadeaway jumper.

Lin Tian also jumped up and raised his right hand.

He didn't block Paul, but he successfully interfered with Paul's shooting.

The ball was so wide that it didn't even touch the frame. It just hit the backboard and was snatched away by Nance Jr. standing in the bottom corner.

"A successful big defense against a small one! Lin interfered with Paul's shooting! His defensive ability should not be underestimated!"

"The ball came to the Lakers, and Kobe rushed forward with the ball! Suddenly a jump shot! Three-pointer! Go in! The score further narrowed!"

"Beep!"

"The Clippers requested a timeout! The Chinese boy and Kobe stopped the Clippers!"

…

"Damn it!" Paul shook his fist angrily when he came out of the timeout. He had not been so depressed for a long time.

Griffin came over and patted Paul on the shoulder: "CP! Don't worry, we are still ahead! I will help you teach that rookie a lesson later!"

Paul shook his head: "I'm not in a hurry, they will lose tonight anyway."

After the 100-second timeout, the Lakers still had the same players.

After Paul holds the ball, Lin Tian is still guarding him.

This time Paul did not force a breakthrough, but passed the ball to Griffin after dribbling for a while.

Griffin relied on his super personal ability to score against Randall's defense.

Lu Wei came to the frontcourt with the ball, and then gave the ball to Lin Tian according to the previously arranged tactics.

It was still Mbah a Moute who guarded him.

There was no way, neither Pierce nor Griffin had been very effective in guarding against Lin Tian before.

Only Mbah a Moute sometimes forces Lin Tian to shoot a three-pointer or a mid-range shot.

Most of the time today, Lin Tian was able to put the ball into the basket.

At this time, Kobe Bryant on the wing suddenly rushed to Lin Tian, ​​attracting defender Paul.

Kobe took the initiative to pick and roll Lin Tian. This was not the head coach's arrangement.

Lin Tian didn't think so much, he quickly dribbled to the wing, and the person guarding him became Paul.

With his obvious height advantage, he sat directly inside, and Paul couldn't stop him at all.

When he arrived near the paint area, Lin Tian jumped high and threw the ball.

This is a better position than the free throw line. Although Paul took off, he was completely out of reach and could only watch the basketball enter the net.

Espn's two commentators also laughed and chatted:

"This young man from the Lakers is treated so well! He even asked Kobe to pick and roll him!"

"Fortunately, he scored. Smith, do you remember the last person who asked Kobe to pick and roll for him? His surname seems to be Lin."

…

Time passed by minute by second, and as the game entered the final stage, the movements of both sides became larger, and whistles sounded from time to time.

Led by Lin Tian and Kobe Bryant, the Lakers slowly caught up with the lagging score.

When there was only one minute left in the game, the score between the two sides reached 115:115.

The ball is on the Clippers' side.

When the 24-second attack time was about to run out, Paul got a chance to take action through the pick-and-roll.

He shot three-pointers directly from beyond the three-point line.

"Whoa!" The basketball hit the net, the score reached 118:115, and there were 35 seconds left.
Chapter completed!
