Chapter 37 The Cardinal is Moved

Facing Tony Allen's defense, Paul changed direction to shake off Tony and accelerated directly into the Cowboys' penalty area.

Lin Yu was a step slow in defending, and then he saw Paul training Holmes.

Paul stopped suddenly at the basket and made a fake layup, and Holmes jumped subconsciously.

Holmes realized something was wrong in mid-air, and when Holmes' body began to fall, Paul jumped directly.

Bang!

Paul dunked over Holmes!

"1m Chris Paul dunked over Cowboys center Holmes!!!"

"Wonderful! Today's game is so exciting! Two of the top three and even the top draft pick candidates are taking turns to perform dunks!"

"Listen to the cheers and applause from the audience, it never stops!"

Mike Brin was thrilled!

After Paul landed, he started trash talking to Lin Yu who was standing beside him.

"You're not the only one who can dunk!"

After saying that, Paul turned around and started to retreat.

Holmes: ???

If Ning is unhappy with Lin Yu, just dunk over Lin Yu!
Why are you dunking on me?
Lin Yu looked at Paul and was ready to start the killing mode.

"Wait a minute, open up some space and watch me perform!"

The biggest problem for Paul's team has always been scoring explosiveness.

This is actually very much like the Spurs.

As a point guard, Paul has no problem ensuring the team's lower limit, but he is indeed unable to raise the team's upper limit.

At this time, none of Paul's teammates were very strong.

Lin Yu really started to explode, and no one on the Demon Deacon team could match Lin Yu's firepower!

When the Cowboys heard Lin Yu's words, they all began to help Lin Yu create space for offense.

After Lucas dribbled across half court, he passed the ball directly to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu dribbled the ball to the three-point line and shot directly!

Chris Ellis did not expect Lin Yu to attack directly. He reacted a step slow and was unable to interfere with Lin Yu's attack at all.

Swish!
The basketball goes hollow into the net.

Paul's voice was filled with dissatisfaction: "Ellis, keep a close eye on your opponent and don't let him make a move easily!"

If I could limit Lin Yu, wouldn't I have been a lottery pick long ago?
Of course, Ellis was just thinking about it, he would never dare to say it out loud.

"I understand. I won't give Lin Yu a chance to make a move next time."

then
Bang!

Under Tony's defense, Paul missed his mid-range shot.

After Lin Yu grabbed the rebound, he dribbled the ball and went for a fast break.

Ellis reacted quickly and wanted to stop Lin Yu's fast break.

Suddenly Lin Yu made an emergency stop, and Ellis failed to brake in time and lost his position instantly. It was too late for him to stop Lin Yu.

Swish!
Lin Yu hit again from mid-range.

stare!
Ellis felt Paul's death glare and his expression changed slightly.

But he really couldn't defend against Lin Yu!

"Nice pull-up jump shot! The score difference has widened to 10 points. Does the Demon Deacon team still have a chance?"

Mike Breen, who didn't even need to commentate, reminded everyone that all the fans watching the game could see that the Demon Deacons were already at a disadvantage.

The cardinal on the sidelines saw this scene.

He gave his own judgment directly: "The game is over. Lin Yu is indeed a very good young man." Patterson looked up at the timer on the big screen and found that there were still 15 minutes and 21 seconds left in the second half.

The Cardinal came to a conclusion so quickly?
"Mr. Auerbach, isn't it too early to draw this conclusion? After all, there is still quite some time before the end of the game."

The cardinal smiled and gave Patterson no answer.

If others can't see it, how could he not see it?

Paul, like John Stockton, is a typical traditional point guard.

This kind of player, if he is asked to score 15 points, he can do so with high quality and efficiency, while also getting assists and rebounds.

It is not difficult for him to get 20 points, but 30 points is different.

The situation on the field is already clear.

Once Lin Yu started to exert his strength, the Demon Deacons had no player who could match Lin Yu's firepower under the Cowboys' defense.

It’s defense that wins championships though.

But someone has to score in a basketball game, right?
When the defense can't limit Lin Yu and the offensive firepower can't match it, how can we win such a game?
As for what happened next, Lin Yu just went on a crazy shooting spree.

Such a thing may happen, but it is always a small probability.

The cardinal stared at Lin Yu on the field and began to think continuously.

"He has an outstanding talent that is not inferior to Chamberlain, a soft shooting touch, and most importantly, his two on-the-spot responses, which is enough to show that Lin Yu's basketball IQ is extremely outstanding."

"He has talent, shooting skills, and basketball IQ. As long as he doesn't get injured, he will basically not fail."

As he thought about it, the cardinal's originally cloudy eyes began to shine again.

perhaps
The Celtics could really take a gamble!
call!
Paul's breathing had become heavier.

There were 7 minutes and 38 seconds left in the game.

The Cowboys led the Demon Deacons by 60 points, 44:16.

This was because the Demon Deacons made two consecutive three-pointers, otherwise the score difference might have reached 20 points.

Paul has not given up at this time and is still trying to organize the offense.

With the help of his teammates' cover, Paul broke directly into the Cowboys' penalty area.

Lin Yu also came over to assist at this time. Facing Lin Yu, Paul was not afraid at all.

"I can't fall here. I still have to defeat Deron and prove that I am the best point guard!"

Deron Williams, Chris Paul and Raymond Felton are considered the 'three major point guards' of the NCAA at this stage!
In the original history, the three were selected in the first round in 2005 with the third, fourth and fifth picks respectively.

It is not difficult to see from their draft picks that the three were indeed excellent point guards during their NCAA period.

For a player with such a strong competitive spirit as Paul, what he wants is not one of the top three point guards, but the best point guard!

Defeating Deron and Felton has become Paul's current goal!
Facing Lin Yu's defense, Paul suddenly stopped and shot directly backward.

When talking about fadeaways, the first people that come to fans' minds are Steve Jobs and Kobe Bryant.

Paul is also very good at fading jump shots.

"Chris, whether it's you or Deron, you will both be defeated by me in the end! There will be no difference between you!"

As Lin Yu's trash talk sounded, a big hand had already occupied Paul's sight.

Snapped!
Lin Yu relied on his arm span advantage to block Paul's backward shot!

The Rose Garden was once again filled with cheers, and fans began to shout Lin Yu's name!

"Lin Yu!!! MVP!!!"

"Lin Yu!!! MVP!!!"

"Lin Yu!!! MVP!!!"
