This kind of jump ball operation is the first time that fans, commentators, and coaching staff have seen it in the entire NBA league.
They were all stunned, staring with their big round eyes at the only black-haired, yellow-skinned Asian boy on the court.
"Oh my god! How did he do that? How did he turn a jump ball into a rebound?"
Everyone was shocked. They all thought that this guy might have taken stimulants. His physical condition was too fierce!
Shawn Marion was slightly stunned. In the past, he was the one who usually got the ball during jump balls.
Because he has an innate advantage, his arms are very long, and he can just grab the ball and it will definitely be theirs.
However, tonight, Marion miscalculated. Not only could this Asian kid jump high, but could he also stay in the air?
It's really incredible!
Lin Feng won the ball and ignored the boos from the audience.
At Phoenix's home stadium, the audience couldn't bear to see an Asian being so "rampant" in the United States.
Some extreme fans shouted that Lin Feng's jump ball was a foul and he had to do it again.
Several referees discussed for a moment and believed that this jump ball was not a foul. Lin Feng did not intentionally have physical contact with Marion. He took the lead in grabbing the ball by relying on his super jumping ability.
"OK, after discussion with referee Luke Bass, the jump ball that Lin got was not considered a violation, and the game will proceed as usual."
"Now Lin is dribbling the ball past the midfield. He didn't attack himself. It seems that Lin is not in a hurry. Is he conserving his energy or something?"
"He gave the ball to Kobe, and Kobe faced Marion's defense!"
"OMG! Baby, Kobe used his best signature attack, a fadeaway jump shot, but unfortunately Kobe's aim was a little off tonight and the shot didn't go in."
As the first quarter of the game started, the two commentators started chattering non-stop.
"Kobe missed the shot, and the rebound was grabbed by Amar'e Stoudemire, who passed it to Steve Nash. Let's see how Nash will organize the offense."
"Nash chose to pass the ball to Diaw from the outside, and Diaw took a three-point shot, but unfortunately he missed."
"My dears, it seems that you haven't eaten tonight. All the balls you throw are short. Where is your strength? Did you use it on women?"
The American commentary is very interesting. Their commentary is more passionate and easier to create the atmosphere of the game.
Moreover, one of the commentators tonight is the legendary NBA commentator, Albert.
Albert watched the game carefully. Diaw missed the three-pointer, and Lin Feng grabbed the rebound.
He can now predict where the rebound will land in advance. This skill of genius rebounding is not just for show.
Lin Feng grabbed the rebound and passed the ball to Kobe.
He was not in a hurry to attack and let the team leader Kobe perform first, because he knew that Kobe was a guy who was almost paranoid about offense, and leaving the offensive rhythm to him would not let the team down.
This time, Kobe did not let Lin Feng's pass go to waste. Facing the defense of Shawn Marion again, he used his back to single-handedly beat Marion in the low post and easily scored two points.
"Yes! Yes! Yes!"
Kobe used beautiful low-post moves and also performed dream footwork, which made the two commentators say yes three times in a row, and they were impressed by Kobe's gorgeous offense!
"It's started. Kobe has started. D'Antoni seems to be very confident in Marion's one-on-one defense?"
"There was no double-teaming on Kobe. Kobe easily scored two points, and he also used the Dream Step. It was a perfect goal!"
Commentator Albert praised Kobe highly.
Raymond Lam clapped his hands with Kobe Bryant and secretly praised Kobe for his beautiful playing style.
Facing Kobe's use of back-to-the-basket moves to overpower Marion, Nash, the leader of the Suns, was quite angry.
In the next round, on the offensive end, he did not pass the ball to Stoudemire but instead passed the ball to Marion, allowing Marion to sneak into the penalty area.
After the fake shot, he tricked Kwame Brown and then completed a slam dunk over his head!
"Yeah, yeah! Marion fought back and dunked the ball. The game was very intense, with both sides trying their best!"
Just like that, with the score very close, the Lakers and the Suns started the game in a bloody battle!
At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers were leading by only two points.
While dribbling, Kobe looked up at the timer. There were only 11 seconds left in the offensive time. He planned to drag the ball out and let the offensive time pass before taking the last shot.
At this point, people all over the world know that Kobe will not pass the ball when the timer is counting down.
He dribbled the ball into the penalty area and tried to force an attack, but the Suns were prepared, and three people surrounded Kobe.
At this moment, a loud shout came from the outside: "Kobe, I'm open!"
Kobe was in mid-air, but he still twisted his body and passed the ball.
And the person who spread the message was actually that Asian boy again.
The last game between the Lakers and the Golden State Warriors seems to be vivid in my mind. At the most critical moment, Kobe passed the ball to Lin Feng, and then Lin Feng made a big-hearted buzzer-beater!
Tonight, Kobe passed the ball to Lin Feng again. Seeing that the situation was not good, the other two Suns players rushed towards Lin Feng like crazy.
When Lin Feng received the pass from Kobe, he was not at all flustered and shot decisively at the top of the arc.
What is different from the last game is that the position has changed, and this time Lin Feng is standing at the top of the arc.
Facing the two Suns players who were rushing towards him, Lin Feng ignored them, aimed at the basket, jumped quickly, and with a flick of his wrist, the basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the basketball flying in the air.
With a swish, as expected, the basketball hit the basket steadily, and it was still a perfect hollow net!
The swish sound of the basketball rubbing against the net is simply the most beautiful melody in the world.
The light came on when the ball went in, and Lin Feng sealed the victory!
A three-pointer from the top of the arc helped the Lakers expand their score advantage. Now the score is 25:20, and the Lakers lead the Suns by 5 points.
"Lin! Nice shot, I knew you could make it!"
Kobe looked very excited and waved his arms towards Lin Feng.
Lin Feng smiled slightly and said with a relaxed look, "I need to thank the boss for passing the ball. You passed it very comfortably, and I was absolutely open."
"Hahaha!" Lin Feng's words rang in his ears, and the aloof Black Mamba laughed, "Lin! You may not know this, but in the past, I hated passing the damn ball. Since you joined the Lakers, I learned to share the ball. Speaking of which, I have to thank you!"
"Ha ha…"
Lin Feng was immediately amused. He didn't expect that the bloodthirsty Black Mamba would also be able to joke one day.
In this relatively relaxed team atmosphere, Lin Feng became more and more confident as the game went on.
He firmly believed that as his cooperation with Kobe became more and more tacit, it was only a matter of time before they defeated the Suns and sent them home to fish.
