"Two consecutive three-pointers, two consecutive three-pointers of the iconic Wood card that were completely normal." Kenny Smith shouted loudly.

Kenny Smith raised his head and the replay was immediately shown on the big screen.

"The block was really beautiful, a complete shot off. I have to say that Wood's defense awareness is very good, otherwise there would be no such block. Of course, there is also his excellence. Vince never expected that he would be beaten by a rookie.

There was a crotch penetration, and it was because he didn't expect it that Wood easily broke through. In the end, Jason didn't expect that Wood would choose to make a three-pointer in a one-on-one situation."

The fans at the Water House Center did not expect Lin Sen to perform like this at the beginning of the game, and it was only 45 seconds after the opening jump ball.

"Is Wood just brushing up on statistics? He made two shots and six points in 45 seconds and also blocked a shot. Maybe this is because he has been holding back for too long in the past two days. Of course, it is more likely because, you know.

"Charles Barkley said with a smile.

Just as Barkley said, the on-site director directly focused the camera on Natalie Portman and Karolina Korkova on the sidelines.

Carolina had a proud smile on her face, while Natalie Portman had a faint smile.

Lawrence Frank gestured towards the court. He never expected that his opponent would score two three-pointers in the opening game. Although the game had just begun, the Nets had to withstand it from the beginning and could not wait until later.

Fill the hole.

Jason Kidd dribbled the ball past halftime, and Vince Carter, who had just been crotched by Lin Sen, a rookie, obviously held his breath.

Kidd directly handed the ball to Carter, and it was Azubuike who defended Carter. However, Carter did not directly attack Azubuike alone but signaled to Kidd.

Seeing Kidd moving toward Carter, Lin Sen immediately followed him. However, Carter was waiting for this opportunity.

There was a mismatch with Kidd. Azubuike was blocked by Kidd, so Lin Sen had to face Carter directly.

"Oh, Vince didn't want to rely on Jason's cover but wanted to change positions and face Wood directly. Obviously he wanted to return the shame of the crotch piercing just now." Kenny Smith looked at 45 degrees.

Carter and Lin Sen facing each other.

Barkley said with a smile: "Wood's defensive ability still has a lot of shortcomings, but his advantage is that he is tenacious enough."

"Rookie, you've pissed me off." Vince Carter stared at Lin Sen and said, the ball moving faster and slower under Carter's bat.

Lin Sen naturally knows that his defense is not good enough, but Lin Sen is never afraid to defend. He tries his best every time he defends.

He took a small half-step forward with his left foot, raised his left hand and stretched it in front of Carter, and opened his right arm to avoid being helpless against Carter's breakthrough.

Carter dribbled the ball behind his back and then quickly followed up with a cross-crotch step. Lin Sen was pacing with his left hand always blocking Carter.

Snapped!

Carter made an impulsive move and raised his right foot. Lin Sen withdrew his left foot a little, but his left hand was still blocked in front of Carter.

However, Carter's right foot did not rush out but directly kicked the floor heavily, and the next second he jumped up.

Lin Sen's reaction was very fast, but still a beat too slow. When he jumped up, Carter had already reached the highest point.

"Vince suddenly pulled up and shot. Wood defended hard!" Kenny Smith shouted loudly.

Lin Sen stretched his arm as far as possible towards Carter's eyes, but when he reached his hand in front of Carter's eyes, Carter had already thrown the ball in his hand.

Soon, the crisp sound of the net being wiped from behind told Lin Sen that Lin Sen's defense had failed.

"This is just the beginning." Carter glanced at Lin Sen in front of him, turned and ran to the backcourt.

Frank on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief. If Carter was in good condition, even a defensive player of Bruce Bowen's level might not be able to guard him, let alone a rookie like Lin Sen.

"Vince, great job!" Frank shook his fist at Carter.

"Lawrence looks very excited, hasn't he ever seen a goal?" Barkley said sarcastically after seeing this scene.

During the transition between offense and defense, Vince Carter pressed forward just after Lin Sen passed halftime, using his body to keep hitting Lin Sen.

The current Lin Sen's body is still quite different from Carter who has played in this league for so many years. Lin Sen directly passed the ball to Turkoglu who pulled out to receive the ball.

However, Carter did not relax his defense against Lin Sen because of Lin Sen's pass, and still stared at Lin Sen.

"How long has it been since I saw a defensive attitude like this from Vince?" Kenny Smith said with a smile.

Turkoglu lobbed the ball inside, and Chris Webber caught the ball and turned directly to face Collins' defense.

Holding the ball at his waist with both hands, Chris Webber took two consecutive tentative steps and then stepped back with his right foot, raising his arms quickly at the same time.

Collins jumped up immediately, and Chris Webber quickly collected the ball and hit it directly.

Dwight Howard, who was on the left side of the basket, caught the ball, slapped the ball hard, grabbed the ball with both hands and jumped up immediately.

It was impossible for Krstic to defend, and he could only watch as Howard slammed the ball into the basket with both hands.

In the transition from offense to defense, Jason Kidd handed the ball to Carter again.

This time Carter did not switch positions with Kidd but faced Azubuike's defense. After a feint, Carter leaned directly on Azubuike and cut inside.

Azubuike immediately retreated to defend, but Carter leaned on Azubuike and turned around to take off.

After reacting, Azubuike could only watch Carter throw the ball.

"Vince hit the second ball in a row. Vince told everyone with his actual actions that he was in equally hot shape." Kenny Smith said.

As the game continued, Vince Carter's defensive attitude surprised everyone.

"I've never seen Vince like this before. His defense was really good. With Richard, Wood is in big trouble." Kenny Smith looked at Linson and said.

Lin Sen had no choice but to pass the ball out. Carter had been staring at him too closely for the past six minutes. He even wondered whether Carter was possessed by a defensive master like Bowen. Plus Richard Jeffer

Sen's timely replacement made Lin Sen very uncomfortable.

clang!

Azubuike's shot hit the basket. Jason Kidd got the defensive rebound. The Nets immediately turned from defense to offense.

Lin Sen retreated quickly, thinking constantly in his mind about whether he should change his style of play and temporarily reduce his ability to hold the ball. He didn't believe that Carter could maintain such a defensive state for a long time while worrying about offense.

Lin Sen pressed against Carter, who leaned on him with his back and raised his right hand high.

"Vince wants the ball." Kenny Smith said as he looked at Carter who raised his hand to ask for the ball.

Jason Kidd, who was holding the ball at a 45-degree angle on the right, did not pass the ball to Carter but made a gesture to Kostic inside.

This made Lin Sen relax a little, but at this moment Collins, who was inside, ran out, and Carter, who was leaning on him with his back, suddenly turned around.

Lin Sen subconsciously turned around to pursue him, but was quickly blocked by Collins.

"Vince used the screen to get rid of Wood. There was almost no one inside." Kenny Smith shouted loudly.

Next to Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley looked listless.

"Jason, just throw it high!"

Kidd pulled the ball with his right hand and threw it away. Carter, who threw away Linson's defense and rushed inside, jumped up one step away from the reasonable collision zone.

Demi-human, demi-god, Vince Carter proved with his actions that this term is not an exaggeration.

Lin Sen watched Carter, who was completely flying, catch Kidd's pass with both hands, and then slam it into the basket.

Stan Van Gundy made a gesture toward Javier asking for a timeout.

"Stan called a timeout. This timeout should indeed be called. Orlando must adjust. It has been too passive in the past few minutes, especially Wood." Kenny Smith said.

"Rookie, do you want me to pay for you?" Carter said to Lin Sen.

"Vince, you are really rich, but as a senior, you should be." Richard Jefferson smiled and catered.

"Wood must find his own correct method. But the game has just begun. Orlando is only 8 points behind. There are still 40 minutes before the end of the game, which is enough for Orlando to tie or even reverse. What they need is a stable mentality.

This is something that young teams often lack." Charles Barkley said as he looked at Lin Sen walking to the sidelines.

"Charles, thank God you finally spoke. I almost called the ambulance for you." Kenny Smith ignored Barkley's eyes. "It is true that young players and teams tend to lose patience. Once they lose patience, they are gone."

If you have a stable mentality, it will be difficult to play the game, but fortunately Orlando still has veteran players like Chris, Scottie and Dennis."

"It's good to have them. The key depends on whether they can perform as they should on the court, but I have confidence in Orlando." Barkley said.

"Wood, do you want to take a rest?" Stan Van Gundy looked at Lin Sen.

Lin Sen shook his head: "Coach, I can do it. I have an idea, which is the tactic we commonly use."

Stan Van Gundy nodded: "You know this tactic is a test for your physical fitness."

"No problem, I will adjust it myself, and I believe that as long as I use it, they will definitely change their defense. Then I can make changes immediately, and I will spend more energy on them, especially Vince Carter.

." Lin Sen said confidently.

"That's good, then let's use the 'Wood tactic' in advance." Stan Van Gundy clapped his hands and said.

Frank, the Nets bench on the other side of the technical table, looked at Vince Carter: "Vince, do you want Richard to guard that rookie?"

After all, Carter is the team's big-name player, so Frank still used a negotiating tone. After all, Carter's offensive and defensive status in these six or seven minutes was incredible.

"Coach, I can do it. If necessary, I will let it go to Richard."

Hearing Carter's answer, Frank nodded.

beep!

A whistle blows and the timeout is over.

"Wood, I don't want to be said that my presence can't help you win." Carolina waved her fist at Lin Sen, looking like a little girl.

Lin Sen touched his nose: "Sister KK, I can do it."
