The defensive deployment of the Los Angeles Clippers shocked the entire stadium.
If a shooting guard came to block a powerful power forward like Griffin, wouldn't he be eaten alive?
Even though Lin Ming's defense was extremely strong, this kind of misplacement was a little too rash. Moreover, it was also a huge loss to Lin Ming.
If Lin Ming was beaten up by Griffin and his stamina was damaged, it would be a disaster for both offense and defense.
In everyone's eyes, this was a terrible choice.
Even Wharton himself was feeling very nervous.
As the head coach, he couldn't arrange such a tactic, but since Lin Ming insisted on trying, Wharton would give him a chance.
After all, Lin Ming was the savior of the Laker team and had absolute privileges.
Compared to the future superstar of the Los Angeles Laker, he was just a small head coach. Of course, it was better to listen to him.
After all, he was just a new coach and did not have the qualifications and status of Popovich and Zen Master.
Paul sensibly passed the ball to Griffin.
Lin Ming wanted to defend against Griffin, so Paul passed the ball to him.
"How can you defend against me from the inside?”
Griffin barely managed to hold the ball with one hand as he spoke to Lin Ming while crossing his steps to find an opportunity to break through.
"Is that so? You're not a top-notch insider yet, so it's more than enough to guard against you.”Lin Ming smiled.
If Lin Ming encountered a historical power forward like Duncan or Garnett, he would probably be in a terrible position.
But against Griffin, Lin Ming was still very confident.
For a moment, Griffin's face turned green. He held the ball and hit it with his back, constantly colliding with it.
Lin Ming bent down, his lower body as firm as a pine tree. His entire body was like a wall, completely sealing off Griffin's path.
What surprised the fans was that Griffin, who was known for his jumping and strength, was completely unable to move Lin Ming…
One had to know that the difference between the inner and outer lines was huge.
Even someone as strong as LeBron James would be hit hard if he was asked to head the big muscles in the paint.
This was because the center forward, especially, had a high demand for muscles and strength.
If the outside line came to contend with the inside line, most of them would be eaten alive.
Although Griffin wasn't a typical muscular man, he wasn't someone an ordinary perimeter player could compare to.
Immediately, he hit Lin Ming four times on his back, but he didn't move at all, causing Griffin to lose face.
Seeing that he was about to break the five-second rule, he could only take a step back and attack again.
Griffin looked at the timer. There were only four seconds left. He quickly dribbled the ball and took a step to the right. Then, he turned around and slid past Lin Ming to get under the basket.
Although there wasn't much room for him to shoot, Griffin still found a gap and forcefully took off to dunk.
At that moment, Lin Ming jumped up from behind him. Just as Griffin was about to put the ball into the basket, he slammed the ball heavily on the basketball.
The violent power intercepted Griffin's ball, and Griffin was knocked to the ground.
Instantly, Lin Ming pushed the ball to the front of the field and ran at full speed.
Little Rivers was originally two to three meters ahead of Lin Ming, but he was overtaken midway.
Arriving at the free-throw line, Lin Ming used a super windmill back-slam and blew up the entire stadium.
"What did I just see? Lin actually single-handedly defended against Griffin?”
"Lin's defensive ability is too terrifying, isn't it? His performance in both offense and defense was phenomenal.”
"If the Laker's record is good this year, I don't doubt that Lin can win the scoring title DPOY MVP! In history, no rookie had ever done this.”
92 to 83!
Amidst the shock of the audience, the score continued to increase.
Griffin was covered in dust by Lin Ming. He opened his hand to ask Paul for the ball and continued to play against Lin Ming.
After an unlucky turn, he quickly turned around. Although he turned around, the ball was directly taken away by Lin Ming's Ghost Hand.
Lin Ming's ability to steal had already broken through 100.
This was a number that surpassed the best steals in history.
Griffin was an inside player. Even though he was very flashy when dribbling and liked to show off his dribbling skills, he could not compare to a fullback.
When he found an opening, Lin Ming reached out with his small hand as easily as he was digging out ashes.
Once he intercepted the ball, Lin Ming would switch to attacking and dash forward at light speed.
At this time, Redick stood in the reasonable collision zone and planned to make an offensive foul on Lin Ming.
However, before Reddick could stabilize his footing, Lin Ming's heavy slam made Reddick cower in fear. He took a step back and dodged to the bottom line.
Otherwise, even if Lin Ming could commit an offense and foul, he would probably be sent flying to the audience seats.
Under Yu Jia's explanation, Lin Ming completed the slam dunk.
94 to 83, the difference in points reached double digits again.
"Beautiful!"
Wharton viciously punched the air, extremely excited.
He was originally filled with worry, but he didn't expect that Lin Ming's defense of Griffin would end with a slam dunk.
Each ball locked onto the top ten balls of the day.
In his opinion, the NBA officials were in trouble.
Just Lin Ming alone had seven or eight performances that were enough to be ranked among the top ten in a match. How should he choose?
On the third attack, Griffin knew his shame and became brave again. Under Jordan's pick-and-roll, he passed Lin Ming and cut into the lane for a layup.
However, Lin Ming turned around and shot a three-pointer. The difference in points did not seem to shrink at all.
The next attack, Lin Ming cut off Griffin's dribble and threw the ball to Ingram.
When Lin Ming was at the three-point line, Ingram passed it back in time, and Lin Ming continued to score three points.
When this three-pointer pierced through the net, the entire Clippers 'players seemed to have been hit hard. They lost all their fighting spirit.
100 to 85, the difference in points had already widened to 15 points.
The strategy of defending from the outside and defending from the inside, which was initially looked down upon by everyone, had a miraculous effect…
Lin Ming walked over and smiled at Griffin."Sky Connecting City? Sorry, flying is prohibited here."
In the end, by the end of the third quarter, Lin Ming had made 17 of 21 shots and scored 44 points. He also had 22 assists, 7 rebounded, 5 steals, and 5 blocked shots.
Extremely comprehensive and terrifying data…
