Timberwolves (91): (90) Lakers.
Directly surpassed the score.
The Target Center Arena burst into cheers.
This is also the first time since the first quarter of this game tonight that the Timberwolves have taken the lead.
Although Lin Fei's five consecutive three-pointers in 190 seconds are comparable to the miracle of the Western Conference Finals,
But the Timberwolves fans at home are obviously more willing to see the strong performance of the main stars.
This way I feel more at ease and have a greater chance of winning.
"'Madman' also scored 25 points, right? He and Kobe Bryant exchanged blows tonight, and 'Madman' who is about to turn 34 years old is not empty at all!"
"This goal is thanks to the restraint brought by Lin's movement. Unexpectedly, Kobe immediately subconsciously switched defenses to chase Lin. This can be said to be star treatment!"
"Hit five three-pointers in a row in 190 seconds. No matter how arrogant the Lakers are, they can't let Lin take another shot!"
"Lin was so amazing tonight. I always feel that next time the ball is passed to him, he can still make a shot!"
"Yeah, I feel the same way!"
On the court.
The Black Mamba was so angry that he immediately waved to Lao Yu for the ball when he came to the offensive end.
Completely ignoring O'Neal, who squeezed the Wolf King away from the basket and got into a good position, he faced the "Madman" one step outside the three-point line at the top of the arc.
Feinted a shot and took off directly to shoot a three-pointer.
Kobe's shot was so decisive and ruthless that "Madman" didn't have time to interfere, and his subconscious defense was delayed by half a beat.
Lin Fei shot a three-pointer, and "Madman" also shot a three-pointer. Perhaps this really angered Kobe's nerves.
Can he really think that Kobe Bryant is a three-pointer?
Does the holder of the record of 12 three-pointers in a single game not want face?
The arc of the ball flying out was very low, and its trajectory was actually very positive. It bounced quickly on both sides of the basket a few times, and finally, with a little bit of luck, it bounced out again.
"boom!"
Because the ball jumped out of the basket, the backboard was very short. O'Neal grabbed the basketball with a roar and immediately sent it for a putback dunk.
The Wolf King beside him had green light in his eyes, and with all his strength, Mou hit O'Neal's arm with his big hand, hitting and pulling him.
"Snapped!"
"Beep!"
The basketball flew out directly, and the Wolf King rejected O'Neal's chance to score 2+1 with a fierce foul.
A red and swollen palm mark quickly appeared on O'Neal's arm.
If this ball were placed in the small ball era of later generations, it would probably be directly whistled for first-level malice.
But O'Neal didn't complain too much, because this is the era of the NBA's most powerful centers.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
O'Neal, who stepped to the free throw line, actually missed two free throws this time. The Wolf King was ecstatic inside.
He rushed forward and grabbed the defensive rebound. This foul was really worth it.
"Snapped!"
Perhaps because they are too familiar with O'Neal's free throws, it is difficult for other Lakers players to get past the Wolf King on the rebounds.
Therefore, Kobe, Payton, and Fisher retreated in time and did not give the Timberwolves a chance to speed up the fast break.
After the position battle, Lin Fei continued his sharp running, and the Wolf King also regained his confidence in front of O'Neal,
About 19 feet away from the basket, facing O'Neal's difficult turnaround jump shot,
The basketball flew across the sky and hit the net.
"Uh-huh!"
The Timberwolves lead by 3 points.
crucial moment,
Kobe no longer chose to blindly go it alone and gave the ball to O'Neal who was well positioned under the basket.
But this time the Wolf King moved forward very quickly and decisively.
With his more agile body, he fixed his eyes on the basketball flying over from high in the sky.
Rushing in front of O'Neal, he charged up his legs and jumped up suddenly, his slender figure soaring into the sky like a rocket.
"Snapped!"
Kevin Garnett, who soared to the commanding heights, used his long arms to support the sky, and his big hands like cattail fans, he actually slapped the basketball down.
Lin Fei was stunned.
The 28-year-old peak wolf king can really dance really high!
Especially with the big shark and rebounder behind him,
It made Lin Fei feel that the moment Garnett soared to the commanding heights to shoot the basketball, the height that his fingertips touched seemed to be almost the same as the top edge of the backboard.
There have been rumors in the NBA that Garnett can touch the coin on the top of the backboard. Even if it is a boast, it is definitely not too exaggerated.
After all, Garnett and O'Neal stand together, and they don't actually suffer from height.
His official height is only 2.11 meters, but in Lin Fei's opinion, his true height should be between 2.14 meters and 2.15 meters.
Coupled with a wingspan of 2.27 meters and a jump height of more than one meter, even if he can't touch the top edge of the backboard, he is still the same.
I sigh again, compared with these NBA geniuses, Lin Fei is really ordinary and couldn't be more ordinary.
The Wolf King successfully moved forward to block the defense this time, which was so shocking that the center of the target was boiling again.
After the ball was snapped, Szebiak, who had quick eyes and quick hands, rushed forward to win the ball. He turned over and saw Lin Fei running towards the frontcourt.
"Lin, pick it up!"
Szebiak didn't hesitate, just made a quarterback-style long pass and threw the ball forward.
But after all, he is not a point guard. Szebiak's ball was obviously a little crooked and his power was a little stronger.
The moment the ball is passed,
Szebiak also clearly felt that something was wrong, and he immediately regretted his abruptness.
The Wolf King's high-altitude steal had just raised the fighting spirit of the home team, and he made a risky long pass error. It was really inappropriate.
But in the next moment, Szebiak's eyes suddenly shone with light.
I saw Lin Fei running towards the frontcourt on a fast break, looking up at the route where the basketball was passing, and accurately judged the point of receiving the ball.
Gritting his teeth, he made a small 5-degree change of direction after accelerating, stretched out his long arms and just caught the basketball.
Follow the three-point line on the left side of the court, dive forward two steps and then remove most of the inertia.
He jumped up from the three-point line at a 30-degree angle on the left side of the front court. His body tilted slightly forward during the flight. He looked at the basket, said nothing, and shot again decisively.
At this time, Kobe, who was flying to catch up at the closest distance, was also three meters away from Lin Fei. He could only watch the opponent shoot this extremely difficult and elegant three-pointer.
Kobe was confused. This was obviously an opportunity to catch the ball and get to the basket to score easily. Why was this guy so obsessed with three-pointers?
If this ball is scored again, Kobe will really doubt his life.
However……
Whoosh!
An arrow pierces the clouds, and thousands of troops come to meet you.
"Uh-huh!"
sixth.
The familiar sound of the hollow basketball net is like the sound of nature.
Kobe's eyes widened in disbelief, but thunder exploded in his mind:
"This... this damn thing can also come in?"
Lin Fei, who landed at an angle, spread his arms again and bent over like a helicopter spiraling down.
He flew back from the basket and passed by Kobe with a mysterious smile on his face:
"Corvo, if you really love life, stay away from helicopters!"
Thunderous cheers and screams exploded again, as if an atomic bomb had landed in the Target Center Arena.
Countless fans in the audience jumped to their feet and shouted Lin Fei's last name:
"Lin, Lin, Lin, Lin..."
At the same time, many fans shouted numbers:
"The sixth, the sixth, the sixth..."
Sizebiak, who rushed up excitedly, high-fived Lin Fei excitedly, smiled and praised:
"Lin, you are so awesome. I almost made a mistake, but you saved it and turned it into an assist!"
Lin Fei was also amazed by his accuracy in judging the placement of the basketball in long passes and his subconscious talent in running to catch the ball.
It seems that this is also part of the top off-ball movement ability brought about by the 99-point three-point attribute.
"Wally, if your pass is any worse, I really won't be able to catch it!"
Timberwolves (96): (90) Lakers.
The lead came to 6 points.
The miraculous steal from the Wolf King coupled with Lin Fei’s fast break three-pointer,
Let the Timberwolves completely suppress the Purple and Gold Army in terms of momentum.
There are only 3 minutes and 16 seconds left on the timer.
With only the "Zen Master" holding the last long pause in the last quarter, he watched the Timberwolves go completely crazy.
With no choice but to call another timeout, this time it was a short 20-second timeout.
According to regulations, in each NBA game, each team can call 7 long timeouts and 2 short timeouts during regular time.
Long pauses are 100 seconds, short pauses are 20 seconds.
However, when the game reaches the fourth quarter, each team can only call a maximum of 3 long timeouts.
No more than one long timeout can be called in the last two minutes.
"Zen Master" called three timeouts in less than 5 minutes after Lin Fei came on the stage.
Never in Phil Jackson's entire coaching career.
Being able to force a famous coach of a generation into such a panic, Lin Fei's six three-pointers are destined to go down in NBA history.
This time, Phil Jackson was anxious and angry, and had no time to arrange any complicated tactics. He just said coldly:
"Kobe, next you go and guard No. 22 for me!"
The Lakers currently lead 3:1. For "Zen Master",
It is not necessary to win this Western Conference Finals G5. After all, they have a greater chance of ending the series after returning to their home court.
But Lin Fei, he really didn't want to see this guy score three-pointers again.
If Lin Fei is really allowed to hit his seventh or even eighth three-pointer next, he will set a new NBA record for three-pointers in a single quarter over their heads.
Then the pressure on the Lakers' momentum may be greater than losing a game...
