NBA: My cousin wears a watch, I wear a mid-range jumper

Chapter 88



"Eh?"

"The Blazers' rotation lineup in this game is a little different from the regular season!"

In the broadcast room, Kenny Smith saw Connaughton appear at the beginning of the second quarter and felt a little confused!

Because according to the normal rotation of the Blazers, Gerald Henderson and Lin Feng should be partners in the backcourt at this time.

Now it's Connaughton!

And Connaughton, in the regular season of this season, averaged only 4.5 minutes per game!

This is definitely a water dispenser manager!

The reason why Lin Feng chose Connaughton, in addition to his good physical talent and toughness, is because he is a second-round pick and a water dispenser manager!

Henderson is already a veteran in the league. Even if Lin Feng establishes a bond with him, Henderson may think that his accurate mid-range shot is a sudden enlightenment! He will not be [grateful] to Lin Feng!

But establishing a bond with Connaughton is different!

Lin Feng can gain a [royal guard with a sword]!

As the boss of the team, how can he be decent without a few loyal brothers around him!

"Maybe it’s a new attempt for the Trail Blazers in this game?"

"Maybe the Trail Blazers felt that this game was too easy and wanted to make it a little more difficult for themselves!"

Barkley laughed!

"That makes sense!"

O'Neal nodded, and looked at Barkley, and both of them laughed.

In the first quarter, the Trail Blazers led the Grizzlies by 5 points with 31:26!

The lead was not that big!

This was because Gasol and Randolph tried their best in the interior offense, and they still played a good offensive efficiency!

But it is obvious that the Grizzlies' consumption on both ends of offense and defense has been off the charts in just the first quarter!

If they continue to play like this, the Grizzlies' physical fitness will soon have problems!

On the court, the Grizzlies attacked first.

Conley controlled the ball past half court.

Old Carter was sitting on the bench to rest at this time, and Conley's partner in the backcourt was the former No. 1 perimeter defender, Tony Allen!

Tony Allen is not young this season, 34 years old!

With age comes a decline in physical fitness, which is also a problem for Tony Allen's defensive ability. A big impact!

Many times, his awareness is top-notch, but his body can't keep up!

However, even so, this season's Tony Allen can still defend Durant, the top scorer on the outside, and call him daddy!

At this time, the Grizzlies also used this big move, hoping that Tony Allen can limit Lin Feng's offense!

What if it succeeds? Then the Grizzlies still have a chance to play!

After Conley came to the three-point line, he passed the ball to Stephenson!

At this time, the Grizzlies' twin towers in the interior were sitting off the court to rest, so the Grizzlies' offensive focus was also shifted to the outside!

Stephenson, a master of chaos, will get a good chance to shoot!

However, this time Stephenson's breakthrough attack was not able to avoid the joint stranglehold of Lin Feng and Gobert, and his layup was directly blocked by Lin Feng!

Gobert picked up the basketball and handed it to Lin Feng!

After Lin Feng advanced across half court with the ball, he handed the ball to Connaughton!

【Please start your performance! 】

Lin Feng winked at Connaughton, signaling him to start!

In the first quarter, Lin Feng tried his hand and made 5 mid-range shots!

This means that under the effect of the bond BUFF, Connaughton's mid-range shot hit rate has increased by 50%!

Fire.in.the.hole!

Let's go!

The moment Connaughton received the basketball, he felt that his whole person was sublimated!

The defender in front of Connaughton was Conley!

Conley's defense is not bad, but there is a certain gap compared to Tony Allen!

On the other hand, Conley's height of 1.85 meters and tonnage of 79 kilograms are also a flaw on the defensive end!

The kind that is almost impossible to make up for!

Connaughton is like a bulldozer in front of Conley, crushing Conley into the three-point line!

"Get ready inside!"

Conley shouted to the inside while desperately trying to defend Connaughton!

In Conley's opinion, Connaughton was likely to attack the inside!

Isn't this how role players play in the small ball era?

However, Connaughton's handling of the ball was completely beyond Conley's expectations!

Just one step inside the three-point line, Connaughton directly made a quick stop jump shot!

This is a long 2 points!

In the increasingly popular trend of [Moneyball Theory], stars rarely shoot like this, let alone role players!

Role players either shoot three-pointers or attack the inside layup, how could option C appear?

Conley suddenly found that he couldn't do this question!

Connaughton has an absolute advantage in both height and tonnage, and his jump shot at this time was not disturbed too much!

Moreover, at the moment of shooting, Connaughton also felt the mysterious force pulling him!

""Swish!"

Steady!

Without any surprise, Connaughton made the mid-range shot!

""It feels so good!"

Connaughton almost groaned!

In the absence of much interference, the 50% increase in the mid-range shooting percentage is enough to allow Connaughton to shoot a very high mid-range shooting percentage!

"Boss! I did it!"

"It was you who gave me this opportunity!"

Connaughton ran to Lin Feng excitedly and clapped his hands with him! He also gave the credit to Lin Feng first!

See, what is called [emotional intelligence]!

Lin Feng was more and more satisfied with Connaughton!

Such a good guy can compete for the [Best Sixth Man] and [Most Improved Award] next season!

"Well done!"

"When did Pat have such a mid-range shot?"

On the sidelines, Stotts was happy but also a little confused!

Why does it feel like his role as a head coach has become less and less recently?

If things continue to develop, can we win even if we tie a dog to the bench as long as Lin Feng plays?

Stotts scratched his head and felt that this sudden feeling in his heart was a little strange!

However, it doesn't matter!

Becoming a championship coach is important!

As long as we can win the championship, wouldn't it be better to win it easily?

On the court, Connaughton seemed to have opened Pandora's door and started to hit mid-range shots continuously!

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Conley was like an ATM in front of Connaughton!

After Connaughton made 5 consecutive mid-range shots, the score difference was already more than 10 points widened by the Trail Blazers!

Now, the Grizzlies' head coach Dave Joerger was completely upset!

Were they going to be hammered to death by a water dispenser manager with a mid-range shot?

This is so unscientific!

If Connaughton really had this ability, he should have become the Trail Blazers' sixth man long ago!

How come he didn't get many opportunities to play throughout the season?

Luck, it must be luck!
