At the end of the first quarter, the Rockets relied on Barkley's suppression of Walker to successfully overtake the score, leading 25:15 by a full ten points.
The Celtics only scored 15 points in the first quarter when Walker was completely suppressed.
At the start of the second quarter, the Rockets let Drexler and Olajuwon rest, and Barkley continued to lead the team.
Auerbach rested Walker, who had played the entire first quarter, and brought in Lin Long and Billups.
After Lin Long went on stage, he took the initiative to find Barkley to match up. Looking at the founder of the Flying Pig Style, Lin Long had mixed feelings.
The Rockets 'first attack was still Barkley.
Barkley held the basketball with his back to him and lifted his butt, trying to push inside.
One, two, three!
After pushing him three times, Barkley was surprised to find that he was still in the same place!
Linlong's strength completely withstood Barkley's back hit!
Linlong was also shocked.
Others might not know, but Linlong knew exactly how powerful he was.
However, Barkley's three hits were heavier than the last. If he hadn't been prepared and stabilized his horse stance, he would definitely have been run over by Barkley.
This was the 36-year-old Barkley. If he was 26 years old, how terrifying would his strength be?
Seeing that he couldn't move Lin Long, Barkley immediately changed his style and leaned back. Barkley suddenly turned around at an extremely fast speed, completely brushing Lin Long behind him. Then, without giving Lin Long any chance to react, he quickly threw his hand!
"Swoosh!"
This was one of Barkley's famous stunts!
After absolute strength came quick and solid little techniques. However, Barkley would only use this move against top defenders like Big Dream and Mourning.
"Kid, your strength is not bad."
Barkley looked at Linlong with admiration.
"That turn of yours was amazing!" Linlong said. Next time, I'll defend myself!"
In the Celtics 'offensive round, Lin Long once again got the ball from a very deep position.
Sensing Barkley's position behind him, Linlong suddenly pushed backward.
He could feel Barkley's body tremble and he took a step back.
Lin Long was about to exert his strength again, but he suddenly had a bad feeling. As he exerted his strength, he quickly passed the ball!
As expected, the contact that Linlong had expected did not happen. Barkley actually chose to withdraw the stool!
If Lin Long hadn't reacted quickly enough to pass the ball out in time, he would have lost his center of gravity and walked awkwardly.
Billups, who received the ball on the outside, did not disappoint Lin Long. He decisively shot a 3-pointer and scored three points for the team.
Barkley looked at Linlong with admiration.""The pass is quite timely and the strength is good enough. It's just that his solo skills are a little rough.”
Lin Long did not refute Barkley's words, which was rare. He had always been troubled by his poor basketball skills.
Even though he could now score 25 points per game.
However, that was mostly because the opponent did not understand him and did not know his range.
As the season progressed, the weaknesses of his accurate shooting but poor technique under the basket would be studied more and more thoroughly. At that time, it would be even more difficult to maintain this data.
This was also why Duncan had always been regarded as the best rookie of the season.
With mature and comprehensive offensive skills and near-perfect touch under the basket, Duncan's ability on the offensive end did not need any polishing. He was the NBA's top level inside player!
Lin Long recalled how Barkley quickly turned around and threw the ball after the collision. If only he could do the same...
Barkley seemed to be able to read Lin Long's mind. He once again asked for a position in the low post and said,"If you want to be unstoppable under the basket, your strength is enough, but the details are lacking. First of all, remember that every time your body comes into contact and collisions, you have to leave some energy for yourself. Only then would you have enough strength to complete the turn!”
After Barkley finished speaking, he turned his body to the side and made two powerful collisions. Then, he turned around quickly toward the baseline!
This time, Barkley held the ball with both hands and made a light jump to the basket. Then, he made a backhand layup and easily scored two points from the other side of the basket!
"Do you see that? Only when you have spare strength will you have the strength to complete the rest of the movements!”
Barkley was as meticulous as a teacher.
Even Barkley himself didn't know why he was so nice to Linlong.
Why did she fall in love with this kid?
Was it because Linlong was handsome, powerful, and likable?
Barkley couldn't help but touch his face.
He finally understood why.
Because…
Linlong was the same as him!
He was strong, handsome, and likable!
Two people who were so similar would naturally be attracted to each other!
Unfortunately, Linlong didn't know what Buckley was thinking.
Otherwise, he would definitely refuse!
At least in terms of appearance, Linlong would never think that he looked like Barkley.
Barkley's neck was not even as long as Linlong's Adam's apple!
