Chapter 19 Reassessment
However, although Tucker was angry at this time, he was not blinded by anger.
He did not confront Lin Yu immediately. Facing Lin Yu outside the three-point line, he first took a step back to defend Lin Yu's breakthrough.
Tucker planned to wait until Lin Yu broke through, and then fight back after his body made contact with Lin Yu.
"Then let me see how I handle it."
Tucker had just thought halfway when he suddenly discovered that Lin Yu had shot directly from outside the three-point line!
Shot from beyond the three-point line!
Tucker turned around subconsciously.
Swish!
The basketball went into the net, and instantly the Gallagher-Eibar Arena was filled with cheers again, with fans shouting MVP!
"Lin!!! MVP!!!"
"Lin!!! MVP!!!"
"Lin!!! MVP!!!"
"."
Tucker was confused at this moment. If he remembered correctly, Lin Yu had not taken a shot in the previous ten games!
Blind!
It must be a guess!
If there was a shot before, why didn't you take the shot?
The scouts on the sidelines opened their eyes wide with disbelief on their faces.
Lin Yu has a shot! ?
If Lin Yu has shooting, then the scouting report on Lin Yu needs to be re-evaluated.
Trail Blazers scout Roy said uncertainly, "This shot wasn't a fluke, was it?"
It's not impossible to guess.
After all, Shark, a center who can't even shoot free throws, has once made a buzzer-beating three-pointer in his career.
Some things do have a lot to do with luck.
Heat scout Richard said: "It shouldn't be a guess! Lin's compatriots Wang and Yao both have good shooting skills."
Pacers scout Sweet said with emotion: "We will know if Lin does have a shot, then we will re-evaluate his draft report and his draft pick will rise again."
Sweet didn't say anything else, because as long as Lin Yu's ranking rises again, the Pacers will basically have no chance of getting Lin Yu.
Originally, if Lin Yu relied on his own performance problems, he might have lost his place in the draft, and the Pacers would have had a chance to pick him up at that time.
But if Lin Yu had a shot, it would be different.
Who could resist a Chamberlain who could shoot, or a Magic Johnson?
The game on the field continues.
Although Roy Ivy caused Tony to suffer a great loss at the beginning of the game, he also missed the three-pointer facing Tony's defense.
After Lucas dribbled across half court, he directly passed the ball to Lin Yu on the wing.
After Lin Yu received the ball, PJ Tucker subconsciously stepped back.
He didn't believe that Lin Yu really had invested
Swish!
Lin Yu's three-pointer hit again, and the cheers in the Gallagher-Eibar Arena erupted like a volcano!
Lin Yu’s own three-point shooting is actually just average in the NCAA.
But PJ Tucker gave Lin Yu an open opportunity to shoot.
Looking at Tucker who looked confused and somewhat unsure of the situation.
Lin Yu also started to talk trash.
"Tucker, if you want to defend me, I suggest you get closer, otherwise you won't be able to stop me from shooting."
"Do I need you to teach me defense? Lin Yu, you must have guessed it. I don't believe you can shoot! Yes, you must have guessed it!"
Looking at Tucker who was deceiving himself, what else could Lin Yu say?
It was the Longhorns’ turn to attack.
This time, Roy Ivey chose to use his teammates' pick-and-roll to break away from Tony's defense and enter the penalty area.
Lin Yu used the assist defense of his shot to directly block Roy Ivy the moment he entered the penalty area.
Faced with Lin Yu and Holmes' charter flight, Roy Ivy chose to take forceful action.
Bang!
Roy Ivy missed the layup, and Lin Yu grabbed the rebound with his arm span advantage.
After dribbling across half court, prepare to continue playing one-on-one.
"Tucker is really stubborn!" Lin Yu thought to himself as he looked at Tucker who was still one step away from him.
Lin Yu was not polite at this time and took another open three-pointer!
Swish!
The basketball went into the net and Lin Yu made another open three-pointer.
Tony looked at PJ Tucker as if he was a fool.
People can't be too stubborn!
Others don’t know whether Lin Yu shoots or not, but he trains with Lin Yu all day long, so doesn’t he know?
Although Lin Yu’s current shooting is definitely not at the level of a sharpshooter.
But there is absolutely no problem in saying that it is the NCAA average.
It is not enough to let Lin Yu shoot two open shots at this time. He needs to shoot a third time.
Smith, who was in the commentary booth, also began to exclaim at this time.
"Charles! Did you see that? Another three-pointer!"
"I saw it. This is Lin Yu's third three-pointer."
"Yes, this is the third three-pointer. What does this mean? If it was just one, it might be a fluke, but hitting three three-pointers in a row proves that Lin Yu is a real shooting player!"
Smith was also a little surprised at this time.
Lin Yu had never demonstrated his shooting before, so how come he could suddenly use three-pointers?
"Lin Yu's draft template is Chamberlain, and now he has shooting. If Lin Yu can grow smoothly in the future, perhaps the league will belong to Lin Yu!"
As soon as Smith finished expressing his feelings, Barkley on the side became unhappy.
"Kenny, what are you talking about? Lin Yu is my successor. After he has shooting skills, as long as Lin Yu learns my post-up play, he will really be a 10-centimeter-tall flying pig."
"Charles, I would rather believe that Lin Yu is a 10-centimeter-taller Jordan than a 10-centimeter-taller Feizhu!"
Upon hearing the name of Boss Joe, Barkley's face instantly turned dark.
Barkley has a deep love-hate relationship with Boss Joe.
I will naturally not admit defeat if I talk nonsense at this time.
"Kenny, I won't admit that Lin Yu is a 10-centimeter-taller Jordan. He is a 10-centimeter-taller flying pig!"
"Charles, the game is still going on. After the game is over, you can ask him and find out which title Lin Yu would like to be called."
Courtside.
Many scouts from the NBA stared at Lin Yu on the court with their mouths wide open and dull eyes.
Three consecutive three-pointers, no one knows the meaning better than them!
Lin Yu really has projection!
Heat scout Richard spoke first: "It seems that we need to re-evaluate Lin Yu's scouting report."
"It does need to be re-evaluated, but I have a question, why didn't Lin Yu use projection before?"
Trail Blazers scout Roy was also a little confused at this time.
"Maybe before, Lin Yu felt that the efficiency was low, so he always used breakthrough?"
Pacers scout Sweet expressed his thoughts.
As for Lin Yu, he learned it temporarily.
The scouts here are all professionals, no one will believe it!
NBA rookies are often referred to as the 'rookie wall'.
Another way to put it is that we have reached a bottleneck period.
Take James as an example. During the Cavaliers 1.0 period, James was good at breaking through, but not good at shooting.
No matter how good James's breakthrough is or how powerful his lethality is.
In the 07 Finals, the Spurs limited James' breakthroughs by shrinking the inside line, and still swept James easily.
During his time with the Heat, James had developed a reliable three-pointer, which made up for his shortcomings in shooting and eventually won the championship.
James has a historical level body, but he will encounter this situation at this time, let alone ordinary players?
If shooting is really that easy to develop, wouldn't the league be full of strong players who can combine breakthroughs and shooting?
As a professional scout, he naturally wouldn't believe that Lin Yu developed the shooting ability after just a few days of contact.
