Chapter 102 Let Jordan play support!Ewing goes out to prepare for military training!
Chapter 102 Let Jordan play support!Ewing goes out to prepare for military training!
After Lin Tian hit two consecutive 3-pointers, Van Gundy, who has always been slow to respond and doesn't like to adapt, also chose to make early substitutions!
He brought Ewing, who had only rested for more than 1 minute, onto the court. He wanted to add an absolute strength to the team to maintain the team's lead!
As soon as Ewing came on the court, he once again asked for the ball inside. Facing Wennington or Longley, there was actually no difference for Ewing.
It's absolutely easy to play at will!
But this time, Ewing missed!His hook shot after swaying Wennington was unlucky and missed.
As soon as the basketball bounced off the frame, Lin Tian already jumped from the ground, hugged the basketball, then immediately turned around and launched an impact towards the front court again!
"Back on defense! Back on defense! Quick! Faster!" Little Van Gundy's anxious voice sounded from the sidelines. Lin Tian's state tonight is really scary. He must always remind his players to pay attention!
But there is a kind of caution, which is called overkill!
This time, Lin Tian suddenly stopped outside the 3-point line, then bent his knees, looked at the basket, and was about to collect the ball, Starks and Hubble actually jumped up at the same time!
With one look, two people were sent flying. Lin Tian's intimidating power today was evident!
Seeing the two people jumping up at the same time, Lin Tian used his strength again. Before Ewing came back, he had forced his way into the inside and succeeded again in a lightning layup!
In the next 3 minutes, Lin Tian and Ewing fought back and forth. Ewing gave Wennington everything he asked for and almost never missed. After Lin Tian completely missed the 3-pointer, he Every fake move can make the Knicks' perimeter defense feel like a formidable enemy!
Under this situation, Lin Tian's breakthrough became extremely easy, and he hit mid-range pull-up jumpers several times!
It can only be said that Curry's mid-range offense is overshadowed by his three-pointers. When it comes to mid-range, Curry is definitely a 'master' level existence. But because of his history's best three-point shooting ability, Many of his other abilities have been overlooked by fans.
The entire second quarter of the game completely became Lin Tian's show!He is almost omnipotent, including 3-pointers, mid-range, and forced layups. He hits shots again and again, setting new playoff scoring records again and again!
By the end of the second quarter, Lin Tian had scored 38 points!
38 points in the half!
It directly broke the half-time scoring record in NBA history!
Lin Tian's performance in this half was so amazing that it was unbelievable!
整个上半场，林天登场24分钟，19投13中，其中3分球13投8中，罚球5罚4中，在爆砍38分的同时，还有着4篮板2助攻和2抢断的数据入账！
However, even though Lin Tian's performance tonight was so explosive, the Bulls did not gain a big lead.
They only led the Knicks by 48 points, 42:6!
The reason why they only lead by 6 points is because the rest of the Bulls team except Lin Tian only made 21 of 3 shots and only scored 10 points. The most important reason is that Ewing's condition is no worse than Lin Tian!
The King of New York also had perfect statistics of 28 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks in the first half. With him supporting the Knicks inside, the Knicks would not collapse so easily!
In the eyes of more people, the Knicks actually have a greater winning rate so far in this game!
The reason is simple. In this era, scoring inside is obviously greater than scoring outside in terms of importance, difficulty and certainty!Ewing can keep beating Wennington or Longley, but can Lin Tian keep hitting long-range shots?
Most people don’t believe it at all!
Not to mention that although Van Gundy is not good at adapting or being on the spot, his ability to adjust defense and arrange defensive tactics has been praised and praised by Riley!Definitely the top level in the league!
Many people believe that Van Gundy will definitely deploy some tactics against Lin Tian in the second half!
In the Bulls locker room, Jackson poured out chicken soup as usual, giving everyone the best encouragement to continue working hard and maintain this rare lead!To be honest, the first half of the game brought so much shock and surprise to Jackson!
He never expected that Lin Tian could perform such a crazy half-time performance!
Jackson seemed to be constantly encouraging everyone, telling everyone to relax and play well in the second half.
But in fact, Jackson was extremely worried!
The reason is also very simple.
Jordan still looked half-dead. The core of the team only made 8 of 2 shots in the first half and only scored 4 points. This was definitely one of the worst halves of his career!
As for Lin Tian, although his performance in the first half was explosive, Lin Tian was so out of breath that he didn't even have a chance to say a few words. He could only keep gasping for air and greedily breathing in the air, trying to calm himself down as soon as possible. .
Obviously, Lin Tian's physical strength has reached an extremely difficult bottleneck period!
"Is this what it feels like to have unlimited firepower, attack like crazy, and support the team by yourself?" Lin Tian gasped and thought wildly: "It's pretty cool!"
Lin Tian's true thoughts at this moment are actually just one sentence.
The man should be so!
Playing like this makes him happy!
"In the second half of the game, Lin continued to play, but don't rush to attack by yourself. Take a rest first, just rest and be lazy on the court. You will definitely do it! Remember, try to recover as much as possible, which is your biggest and most important goal in the first 3 minutes of the third quarter. Important work! Michael, at the beginning of the second half, we will still use you as the main attack!"
Jackson looked at the players and then at his watch.
In the last 3 minutes before the start of the second half, he finally started to arrange tactics!
Jordan nodded and said: "Give me the ball and I will take you home!"
"Why go home? This is our home court! You can only take us fishing! At least that's the case tonight." Lin Tian, who was sitting in the corner, finally breathed his last. He looked at Jordan and said : "You continue to use your feint to attract their attention, and then you just pull away from me!"
"The protagonist tonight is me, not you! Michael, remember, create space! You can definitely do it!"
Lin Tian's words did not cause any discussion this time, because Lin Tian had done similar things too many times, not to mention that he was the biggest contributor to the team's lead in the first half!He alone scored more than 8% of the team's points. It seems that there is no problem for such a person to be arrogant!
"Lin, your physical strength?" Jackson frowned. He knew better than anyone how much Lin Tian had consumed. As long as Lin Tian's physical strength was not a problem, he wouldn't have been so breathless that he almost coughed up just now.
Jackson was really worried that Lin Tian's physical strength would not be able to hold on. His consumption in the first half was too great!
Jackson was worried that if Lin Tian continued to play uncontrolled singles and attacks like he did in the first half in the third quarter, he might not be able to last until the end of the game and would be completely exhausted!
His consumption is really huge visible to the naked eye!
Although Lin Tian's physical strength is not a shortcoming, it has never been what he is good at!
Facing the Knicks' iron-blooded defense, although Lin Tian had some easy jump shots, they were relatively easy.
After all, Lin Tian still has a lot of tasks on the defensive end, and some physical exertion is simply unavoidable!
Looking at Jackson's worried eyes, Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders easily and said:
"I can hold up coach, don't worry, you just have to lay out your tactics."
Seeing Lin Tian looking so relaxed and Jordan next to him standing half dead and almost unable to stand up, Jackson could only sigh, he had no choice at all.
"The only reason why we played so hotly in the first half but still only led by 6 points is: Ewing played too comfortably! In the second half of the game, we have to attack Ewing from both ends of the offense and defense!"
"Lin, first of all, you, stop picking and rolling with Michael on the offensive end. You pick and roll with Bill, Luke or other people Ewing is defending to attack Ewing! Use your speed and agility to consume him and let him defend. Pay the price!"
"Then, when Ewing gets the ball in the low post again, double-team! Don't hesitate to double-team the person closest to him! Let him distribute the ball, let him hit the ball to the outsiders, and then, Lin, Mai... …Michael, you two, be careful to cut off his passing lanes!”
Halfway through Jackson's words, he still assigned a task to Jordan, even though he knew that with Jordan's physical condition tonight, it would be impossible for him to perform well. After all, according to the team doctor, 99% of the people in this league would be replaced. At this moment, I am afraid that he is lying on the bed motionless, and can only groan and wait for his condition to get better, but Jordan can actually hold on to participate in the game!
His terrifying willpower and desire to win are really scary!
As the halftime was coming to an end, Jackson also finished laying out all the tactical details. After Jackson's order, everyone on the Bulls team stood up together and walked towards the arena.
Lin Tian was last at this moment, and then suddenly reached into his bag, and then took out a veteran cadre thermos cup. When no one was paying attention, Lin Tian raised his neck and drank continuously. Two big mouthfuls.
This is another treasure that has been hidden in Lin Tian's system.
'Wolfberry thermos cup'!
Each sip can restore 10% of physical strength. You can only drink three sips a day. Lin Tian only has a total of 5 sips.
But when the game reached this point, Lin Tian had no need to hold anything back. He just drank it in two gulps, and his physical strength immediately recovered by 20%!
The painful tearing feeling in his lungs and the fatigue all over his body disappeared almost instantly. Not to mention being resurrected with full health, Lin Tian was resurrected with at least half health at this moment!
In the second half of the game, his task is more important than in the first half!
With the referee's whistle, both sides stood on the court at the same time.
The first wave of offensive ball rights still belong to the Bulls!
Lin Tian dribbled the ball all the way to the frontcourt. This time, he clearly felt that Hubble's full-court defense was stronger and tighter. In terms of intensity, it was close to a full-court press!
Even if Lin Tian speeds up and passes him immediately, Hubble will quickly catch up with his life and never let Lin Tian get the shooting space he did in the first half!
When Lin Tian came to the frontcourt, not only did Hubble immediately defend him closely, but Ward next to him immediately moved a step towards this side, as if as long as Lin Tian dared to attack, he would immediately step forward to cover him. folder!
Needless to say, this is the tactic deployed by Van Gundy!
Use stronger defensive intensity and higher defensive level to consume Lin Tian!
Let him be as tired as possible, and at the same time, no longer give Lin Tian any chance to easily shoot 3-pointers. Judging from the current state of the Bulls, as long as Lin Tian is locked, the Knicks' chances are very good!
In any case, Lin Tian's 38 points in the first half was really scary!
Jackson and Van Gundy are tied in terms of midfield arrangement.
The purpose of both parties is exactly the same, that is consumption!
Consume the opponent's best and most important person tonight!
Hubble's full-court press and the 'threat' of Ward stepping forward to double-team at any time did not scare Lin Tian. He stepped back slightly, and then quickly called for cover!
This time, it was no longer Jordan who came over, but Longley on the inside, striding toward the outside.
Taking advantage of Longley's wide body, Lin Tian blocked Hubble's defense with a change of direction. He raised his eyes to observe the positions of the players on both sides. Lin Tian discovered that Ewing did not follow Longley out, but squatted down. Trap the basket!
This means that Lin Tian got a huge open opportunity!
How could Lin Tian miss this opportunity?
Even though Hubble was so angry that he stretched out his hand, after all, there was Wennington between him and Lin Tian. As long as Wennington stood there motionless, with his strong body and fierce appearance, he could do the best for him. Lin Tian escorts you!
"Shh!"
Seeing Hubble being stuck, Ewing had no intention of coming out. Lin Tian did not hesitate at all, and decisively took another 3-pointer along the 3-point line and hit it!
Lin Tian looked at Ewing and said with a smile: "You coward, you don't dare to come out to fight me, do you? If you dare to come outside the 3-point line, see if I can knock you over!"
"Boy, don't be proud!" Ewing was so angry at Lin Tian's trash talk. This time he quickly ran to the frontcourt. After blocking Wennington with his back, Ewing asked for the ball with great force and said at the same time. : "Aren't you the same? You don't dare to fight or face a monster like me in the basket, right?"
"Monster? Where is the monster? Why can't I see it?" Lin Tian exaggeratedly stretched out a hand as a telescope, turned his head around and said: "Is Olajuwon coming? Or is O'Neal coming? Or maybe David... Robinson or Alonzo Mourning?"
"Aren't they all there? Then where are the monsters? Where are the monsters under the basket? Huh?"
Lin Tian's arrogance and defiance made Ewing furious again. The guy suddenly turned around and once again passed Wennington cleanly. Then, just as he was about to collect the ball and take off, Jordan, who had been ignored by Ewing, suddenly appeared. , slapped him out with one slap!
"Snapped!"
This time the ball was intercepted extremely crisply, and the basketball was snatched directly into Jordan's arms. Then Jordan quickly gave the ball to Lin Tian and asked him to dribble forward!
Even though Hubble and Ward almost rushed towards Lin Tian to stop his rapid advancement, Lin Tian didn't even look at these two people, and ran towards the frontcourt with his head lowered!
Then outside the 3-point line, Lin Tian suddenly stopped again, raised his head and bent his knees, then pulled up to shoot!
Hubble, who had been shot by Lin Tian for a long time and was about to go crazy, had obviously overreacted. Lin Tian had just finished half of his fake move when Hubble jumped vertically like a stress reaction!
Lin Tian immediately turned around, brushed past Hubble, and headed inside!
"boom!"
After a bang, Lin Tian dunked and scored another 2 points for the team!
The point difference between the two sides exceeded 10 points for the first time in this game!
Fortunately, the Knicks still have Ewing on the side. He once again received the basketball and made a half-shot shot from mid-range!The score difference was reduced back to single digits.
In the next 3 or 4 minutes, the two sides once again started a tug-of-war. The Bulls double-teamed Ewing frantically, making it difficult for him to complete singles. Fortunately, the Knicks' perimeter and role players also found them at this time. state.
After receiving Ewing's points, they were finally able to start hitting some open shots, which also relieved Ewing's pressure on the inside a lot.
On the defensive end, the Knicks simply stopped being secretive and began to double-team Lin Tian!
Naked and double-teamed directly from a high position!
In the Bulls game, Jordan was there, but the one who was double-teamed was a rookie!
Throughout Jordan's entire career, this is definitely the first time this has happened!
But Jordan didn't complain at this moment. He just stood at the opposite corner of Lin Tian and opened up space for him.
Jordan's choice prevents the Knicks' defensive attention from focusing too much on Lin Tian. After all, this is Michael Jordan!Not to mention that he just had the flu and didn't have the energy to play. Even if he had a broken leg, he could only lie down on the court. The Knicks also watched him to prevent him from scoring suddenly.
In addition to opening up space for Lin Tian to smoke in the corner, Jordan would immediately come to Lin Tian and cooperate with Lin Tian in pick-and-rolls as long as Lin Tian gestured to him.
This is definitely an extremely rare and even unique game in Jordan's entire career where he provides cover and assists others!
Lin Tian also lived up to Jordan's efforts. Although the Knicks double-teamed him to the point of madness, almost as soon as he passed halftime, someone rushed over to help defend him, but Lin Tian's passes could always be penetrated. Knicks defense!
In the second half of the game, it wasn't just the Knicks' role players who found their form, Kukoc also found some feeling!
He received passes from Lin Tian three times in the second half. Although he did not choose to rush into the paint, he hit two mid-range shots and a three-pointer, which also caused huge problems for the Knicks' defense.
Their double-teaming on Lin Tian began to relax!
Throughout the first half of the third quarter, due to the crazy double-teaming of the Knicks, Lin Tian, except for the 5 consecutive points at the beginning, was never able to find a suitable offensive opportunity and was unable to increase his scoring. , but Lin Tian’s points also made the Knicks lose sight of one thing.
In addition to Kukoc's 7 points, Longley and Rodman also seized an opportunity, stole the chicken under the basket and completed a dunk!
As for the Knicks, Hubble, Ward and Willie Anderson, who was named the starter today, also found the feeling and seized the opportunity!They hit long-range shots and layups one after another, and continued to contribute to the team on the offensive end. They also made the Bulls' double-teaming of Ewing mediocre!
Six minutes into the third quarter, the two sides entered the first timeout of the third quarter.
At this time, the score between the two sides also became 64:55!
The two sides struggled for several minutes over the 10-point difference.
And when the timeout ended, in addition to the appearance of shooters and offensive players such as Cole and Starks, the defensive tactics of both sides also changed!
Because of the explosion of role players and the emergence of players who are better at attacking, the coaches on both sides did not dare to continue double-teaming. They invariably returned to the regular one-on-one defense!
It's still Langley vs. Ewing, Hubble vs. Lin Tian!
In the tiebreaker, both Jackson and Van Gundy became more conservative and prudent than before, and did not dare to use overly aggressive and crazy tactics for a long time. They would rather lose with the most conventional tactics than be defeated by their opponents because of being too aggressive. Hit the offensive climax!
In the first attack after returning from the timeout, Ewing once again dangled Longley in the mid-range, and then he leaned and nudged, and the basketball obediently got into the basket!
At the same time, the referee also blew the whistle for a foul!
2+1!
As soon as Ewing came back from the timeout, facing a one-on-one defense, he hit an extremely tough and crucial 2+1!
He is using practical actions to prove: A person?There is no way you can restrain me!
Seeing Ewing steadily hit the free throw at the free throw line, Lin Tian spit out the braces he asked the staff to find during halftime, bit it in his mouth and kept spinning it, and he silently made a decision in his heart.
Next, we must continue to focus on Ewing!
If you want to win this game, you must defeat Ewing first!
Otherwise, God knows how much this inside behemoth will wreak havoc on the Bulls' inside line!
So, when Lin Tian dribbled to the frontcourt again, facing Hubble's single defense, he called for cover again!
This time, it is no longer Jordan who poses the greatest offensive threat but has never made many moves!
This time, it was Longley who rushed out from the inside!
After tightly blocking Hubble, Lin Tian once again gained a lot of space outside the 3-point line!
Seeing that Ewing didn't make the save, Lin would have been polite to him. He pulled it up and shot another 3-pointer!
"Shh!"
After a crisp sound, Lin Tian hit his 10th three-pointer tonight!
A new NBA playoff record for 3-point field goals in a single game is born!
Of course, if you can only break records but not win, then any data is just a joke! In the NBA, everything is empty except victory!
After scoring the goal, Lin Tian stretched out his thumb towards Ewing, and then quickly gestured his thumb downward a few times. Not to mention, before the referee noticed Lin Tian's provocation, Lin Tian quickly took it again. Made a move that New Yorkers hate the most.
'Throat Cutting Ceremony'!
In last year's Eastern Conference semifinals, the Pacers' Miller made this move to Ewing and the entire Madison Square Garden fans after hitting a decisive 3-pointer!
Lin Tian's move undoubtedly touched the fragile nerves and sensitive self-esteem of all Knicks players!
"FUXX! Are you looking for death, kid!" Ewing cursed, completely ignoring the fact that Lin Tian killed three Knicks generals in a one-on-three fight a few days ago, and rushed towards Lin Tian with strode!
"Calm down! Calm down Patrick! If you are sent off, we are finished!" Van Gundy reacted quickly on the sidelines and yelled at Ewing quickly, hoping that he would regain his composure. The one who moved faster than Ewing was on the court. The referees on the side quickly rushed into the court and stood between Lin Tian and Ewing.
"Technical foul! Technical foul boy!" the referee yelled at Lin Tian angrily: "You have already ruined this series, are you going to ruin it again? If you make any provocative moves again and we find out , I don’t care if this is Chicago or wherever, I will definitely kick you out of the stadium!”
Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders and didn't say another word. His eyes when he looked at Ewing were still full of provocation and disdain.
Seeing Ewing's eyes that were almost bursting with fire, Lin Tian knew that his goal had been achieved!
Ewing was completely angered!
His ability to control emotions has always been poor.
Although he paid the price of a technical foul, Lin Tian knew that this was definitely a bargain!
"Patrick, calm down! He is deliberately irritating you! Just do what you are good at! Do what you should do!" Van Gundy held Ewing's arm and kept persuading: "Your job is to guard Basket! For the rest, just trust your teammates!"
No one knows whether Van Gundy's persuasion is of any use, but everyone knows that the next game between the two sides will be extremely fierce and bloody!
As Starks made a technical free throw, Ewing quickly found an opportunity to hit a hook shot near the basket. Tonight, Ewing can definitely bear the title of one of the top four centers!He destroyed the Bulls' entire inside line!
Although Rodman was in poor physical condition and had no strength to help defend, and Pippen, the Bulls' strongest defensive point, did not play these factors, Ewing took on everything on the Knicks' offensive end in the tiebreaker!
As the Knicks hit 1+2, the advantage Lin Tian had just hit the 3-pointer was once again wiped out. The Knicks' pursuit never stopped!
Then, when Lin Tian came to the frontcourt again, he called for a pick-and-roll again!It's still Longley, still going to beat Ewing!
"Boy, are you looking for death?" This time, Ewing finally came out from the inside!He wanted Lin Tian to know what would happen if he provoked him!
Facing Ewing who rushed out, Lin Tian was not in a hurry this time!
After he stretched out his hands and signaled everyone to pull away from him, he showed off his fancy dribbling moves from a high position, constantly changing directions, dribbling behind his back, and under his crotch.
Coupled with the constant changes in rhythm, Ewing's footsteps and focus were constantly mobilized and deceived by Lin Tian!
Even though Ewing is definitely one of the top defenders and rim protectors in the league, it is still beyond his ability to defend a defender with top speed and rhythm on the outside!
Even many fans can see that if Lin Tian wants to get past him, just one second is enough!
However, after Lin Tian moved at the top of the arc for more than 10 seconds, after Ewing's patience was almost completely exhausted, Lin Tian suddenly accelerated to the middle distance, glanced back with his peripheral vision, and confirmed You Yin had already reached the extreme speed for the pursuit, and it was absolutely impossible for him to stop suddenly. After that, Lin Tian stopped!
"Oh!"
Ewing behind him couldn't brake in time and knocked Lin Tian to the ground.
Before Lin Tian fell to the ground, he threw the basketball with a high throw!
"Shh!"
A crisp sound sounded shortly after.
The entire United Center Arena suddenly burst into earth-shattering cheers and shouts!
"Lin! That's awesome!"
"Kill these smug New Yorkers!"
"What Ewing! Can't you just follow Lin's ass and eat shit?"
"2+1! Continue 2+1! One more!"
Lin Tian, who was pressed by Ewing, did not lie on the floor for too long. At this time, there was no need to lie on the floor and pretend to be dead. He pushed Ewing away and got up from the ground. , biting his braces arrogantly, looked at Ewing and said:
"Your defense is good. You are almost able to catch up with me. Keep up the good work!"
After saying that, Lin Tian did not make any more provocations this time.
Instead, he went straight to the free throw line and prepared to take the free throw!
"Shh!"
After easily hitting the 1-point free throw, Lin Tian nuzzled at Ewing. Although he didn't say a word, everyone understood what he meant.
"I scored another 3 points, it's your turn!"
"FUXX!" Ewing's eyes became fierce and determined for the first time in this game!
He didn't believe it. It was true that I couldn't compare to Jordan, but how could I be compared to a rookie like you?
"Tony, Michael, prepare to help defend! He will definitely not pass this ball!" Lin Tian whispered to Jordan and Kukoc on the way back to defense.
"Damn bastard!" Jordan's voice was getting weaker and weaker now, even though he actually only took 6 shots all night, and even though on the defensive end he was always facing the Knicks' worst offensive player, Wolves. De and others, but the strong flu symptoms still made him feel almost exhausted.
But despite this, facing Lin Tian's command, Jordan still chose to execute it obediently!
When Ewing once again asked for the ball in the low post for a single, Jordan and Kukoc, who had already shown confidence, rushed towards Ewing with one left and one right!
Ewing, who was originally determined to play alone and never pass the ball, didn't expect the Bulls' defense to change so quickly. Without checking, the basketball in his hand was slapped down by Kukoc!
Then Jordan had quick eyes and quick hands. After hugging the basketball, he gave the ball to Lin Tian again!
Lin Tian didn't hesitate after holding the ball. The speed that made the entire New York and Knicks teams desperate broke out again. He dribbled the ball and flew towards the frontcourt!
How dare the five players on the entire Knicks team relax at all?They followed Lin Tian closely, and the five of them retreated quickly, trying to contain Lin Tian's fast attack.
But when they caught up with Lin Tian after playing with their old lives, Lin Tian suddenly stopped again!
He did not directly shoot 3-pointers, nor did he take advantage of the Knicks' chaotic formation to rush inside to score points.
Instead, he stopped outside the 3-point line and began to direct his teammates to get into position!
He himself gave up an excellent opportunity to score easily in transition from offense to defense!
Then, Lin Tian looked at the Knicks who had already settled in, and once again called Longley to step forward to cover!
What this means is self-evident.
Patrick Ewing - Out!
Get ready for military training!
At this time, even the home fans at the United Center took a breath of air!
This little rookie is so arrogant!
Is it really that hard?You have to pick the strongest and most ruthless point on the opposite side and chase it to death?
Where in his life has Ewing ever been so angry?Panting heavily, he rushed out from the inside with a domineering step, and once again stood in front of Lin Tian!
This time, Lin Tian did not continue to show off and dribble on the spot. Since he wanted to beat Ewing, since the purpose was to beat his mentality to collapse, he had to use something different!
This time, Lin Tian clung to Ewing's body, and the ball protector even took the initiative to hang on Ewing's arm. The two of them stuck together and rushed inside!
"Boy! Don't even try to break through me! You're done!" Ewing, who thought he had finally caught up with Lin Tian, was extremely proud!
What a 'Lightning Boy', what an amazing speed, why haven't I caught up with him!
But of course his pride could not last long.
Just when the two people approached the 3-second zone, Lin Tian suddenly jumped up!
If you just jump up, that's nothing.But Lin Tian is not as simple as simply jumping up!
As Lin Tian took off, Ewing was extremely surprised to find that he couldn't pull his arm back!His arm was clamped by Lin Tian!
But who is dragging whom? I am afraid that only Lin Tian and Ewing know at this moment!
How can anyone understand this kind of 'touching porcelain' technique that is truly ahead of its time?
As a result, the referees and fans on the scene, and even Ewing himself, all determined the fact almost at the same time.
Ewing fouled!
With Lin Tian screaming and throwing the ball out with an extremely exaggerated gesture, the referee's whistle sounded on time!
"Thugs foul! 2 free throws!"
Ewing stood there, looking helplessly at the referee.
He also felt that he had committed a foul on this ball. Otherwise, why would Lin Tian's arm be entangled with his own and still completely inseparable?
But he didn't want to commit a foul, and he didn't even make a move!He himself didn't understand why Lin Tian's arm was entangled with his own, and it was so tight!
Ewing's little head and his very limited and very lazy brain cells were spinning and thinking rapidly at this moment.
Well, I can’t figure it out, I can’t figure it out at all!
Ewing didn't understand how he committed the foul until Lin Tian made two free throws, let alone how his hand got wrapped around Lin Tian's arm.
And even if he couldn't figure it out, he had been fouled by Lin Tian twice in a row, and he had already committed his fourth foul!
With one and a half quarters left in the game, his foul count is definitely very dangerous!
If it doesn't work well, he will be killed directly!
Little Van Gundy on the sidelines was even more worried and kept pacing on the sidelines.
He was hesitating whether to replace Ewing.
Logically speaking, he has to replace Ewing, but Van Gundy also knows the situation of tonight's game. As long as he removes Ewing, Ewing will not have to play again tonight. Without Ewing, the Bulls will Lin Tian can completely defeat the game in minutes!
Do not change!
After hesitating for less than 20 seconds, as Ewing scored another goal in the paint and continued to hold on to the score, Van Gundy shattered his molars and decided to give it a try!
He can only give it a try!
In this situation tonight, Ewing must not end up!
"Patrick! Be careful, don't get fouled again! Pay attention to the number of fouls you commit!" Van Gundy really had no other option besides shouting for Ewing to pay attention.
"Derek! Squeeze the screen! Don't let this kid face Patrick easily again! Charles, and you, if this kid targets Patrick again, you go and counter him! Switch defense! Pay attention to the communication on the defensive end!"
"If you're scared, just take him off." Lin Tian happened to pass by at this time and heard Van Gundy's command: "If you don't take him off now, I guarantee that this weakling will be gone before the third quarter is over. You will get your sixth foul!"
"Boy, who are you looking down on!" Ewing's eyes widened for the nth time tonight.
"I look down on you!"
Lin Tian looked at Ewing provocatively, and then, once again, called for Langley's cover!
This time, Hubble, who was blocked twice in a row, squeezed forward desperately and squeezed past Longley's screen without letting the screen take effect.
At this time, he must protect Ewing!Lin Tian can no longer be allowed to attack their only strong point on the field. Who would have thought that Ewing would one day become a burden on the Knicks' defense?
However, Hubble didn't have time to be happy that he successfully squeezed through the screen this time and completed the protection of Ewing.
Because Lin Tian was not in a hurry to attack at all, but after stabilizing himself, he asked Longley to cover him again!
This time it was Oakley who rushed forward!
Anyway, Rodman didn't have much offensive ability. Oakley took the initiative to rush over and complete the defense switch against Lin Tian!
The Knicks are determined not to let Ewing be exposed to Lin Tian again!
But is it useful?
Obviously not!
Lin Tian’s patience exceeded everyone’s imagination on the Knicks team!
He stepped back slightly again, pulled Oakley out of the 3-point line, and then called Longley for a screen again!
This time, Ewing finally had no way to avoid it!
Facing Lin Tian, who has already hit 10 three-pointers, how can the Knicks dare to let him fire from the outside like they did in the first half?
In addition, after three consecutive pick-and-rolls, the attack time has only the last three seconds left. Ewing is confident that in three seconds, you will never be able to cause me to foul again!On the contrary, I want to avenge my previous shame this time and teach Lin Tian a good lesson!
Go around the screen and watch as Longley blocks Oakley in front of him and Ewing darts out of the paint.
Lin Tian only glanced at the time and then jumped to collect the ball, as if he was about to pull up and shoot directly!
"You're done, kid!" Upon seeing this, Ewing jumped up excitedly!He couldn't wait to give Lin Tian a bloody hat to let him know that New Yorkers are definitely not to be messed with!
But when Ewing took off, he finally realized something was wrong!
Lin Tian is so patient!
There were only 2 seconds left in the attack time. Instead of shooting directly, he used a fake move to stun the opponent!
What is this operation?
Instead of taking advantage of the small opening to quickly shoot, he made a fake move?
Do you know what basketball knowledge is?Can you play ball?Didn't the coach teach you that if your opponent doesn't jump when you fake a move like this, the ball will be completely dead, and you won't have time to make any more coordination, and the entire round will be completely blocked, and there will be a 24-second offensive violation?
Didn't Phil Jackson teach these most basic basketball knowledge to his players?
FUXX!
A series of curse words and his understanding of basketball flashed through Ewing's mind. He couldn't imagine why this kid was so sure that he could take off and would be fooled?
I thought, Ewing must not have figured it out, because after Lin Tian successfully tricked him into jumping, he also jumped towards Ewing.
It’s still a rub, a twist, a flick of the wrist!
"Boom!"
The only pity may be that Lin Tian's 3-pointer failed to hit!
Didn't score 3+1, just got 3 free throws.
But the referee's whistle did not disappoint Lin Tian!
Ewing was called for 3 fouls in 3 consecutive rounds!
In the blink of an eye, he committed 5 fouls!
Just one more move, one more big move, and Ewing will be kicked off the court!
He has reached the critical point of leaving!
For almost all players, the meaning of 5 fouls is not just as simple as 'only one foul left before being sent off'.
For almost everyone, five fouls means that in subsequent games, whether offensive or defensive, he will become cautious and cautious, fearing that he will be called for a foul, which will lead to greater contribution and energy on both ends of the offense and defense. reduction in amplitude.
The defensive end didn’t dare to make moves, the offensive end didn’t dare to exert force, and the rebounding end didn’t dare to get stuck...
Not to mention that there are some referees who have such a special hobby of sending off players with five fouls!Just like the collecting habit when playing games, they will focus on players who have committed 5 fouls, as if sending them off as soon as possible will give the referees a different sense of accomplishment!
Not to mention this guy Ewing, he must be very strong, but his mental quality is very poor!
Known for being a softie at critical moments and a loser in big scenes!
This is why among the ranking of the four major centers, the top three are always indistinguishable and will change positions from time to time, but he is always at the bottom, and has never even been promoted to third!
Without him, being defeated at critical moments and unable to withstand pressure and play against the wind are his biggest shortcomings!
They lost to the Bulls four times in a row, the Rockets in the Finals the year before last, and the Pacers last year. Among the Knicks' failures over the years, I don't blame Ewing for every one of them, but Ewing was absolutely unable to stand up at critical moments. It is one of the biggest reasons why the team has never been able to reach the top.
Therefore, when Ewing got his fifth foul, the entire United Center was completely boiling!
Do they know who Ewing is, and what are the weaknesses of this old rival? They didn't even need a DJ to set the rhythm, and the fans spontaneously shouted slogans.
"6 offenses! 6 offenses! 6 offenses!"
"6 offenses! 6 offenses! 6 offenses!"
"6 offenses! 6 offenses! 6 offenses!"
The overwhelming boos made Ewing's mentality even worse!
The worst thing for the Knicks is that even if they know that Ewing's mentality has begun to change tonight, even if they know that if Ewing continues to stay on the court, he will definitely become the target of the Bulls' attack, they But he still didn't dare to replace Ewing.
There is no way, this is their only support!
"Patrick, I guess you need a diaper now." Lin Tian walked to the free throw line and looked at the somewhat distracted Ewing. Lin Tian knew that the Bulls had already won this game tonight: "Because you must I peed my pants already!”
"To shut up!"
Ewing's response has become obvious that he is strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and lacks strength.
He didn't even look up at Lin Tian. Even a blind man could see his dejected look.
Ewing is finished!
"How long do you think you can stay on the court? Do you want me to book a private room in the nightclub for you in advance? After all, you need to relax and forget the failure." Lin Tian hit the first free throw.
"Or do you want to be alone for a while? I have a few door-to-door service phone numbers that I can also provide to you. I guarantee that you will forget the shadow of failure and enter the leisure state of the holiday as soon as possible." Lin Tianzhong was hit. The second free throw.
"Perhaps it's more realistic. How about I shoot a free throw with my eyes closed? Just think of it as giving you one point, so that you don't have to work so hard to catch up." Lin Tian patted the basketball while looking at Ewing, and continued to rubbish. The words were output, making Ewing's mentality even worse and uncomfortable.
"Can you shut up and say less?"
A voice representing justice suddenly came.
To Lin Tian's surprise, it was not a certain Knicks player, not Van Gundy, or even a player on the court who said this to Lin Tian.
The bottom line referee said it.
The referee couldn't help but rolled his eyes and looked at Lin Tiandao: "Of course, I'm just a suggestion. You don't have to adopt it, and I won't call you a technical foul because of this, but I have to say, your trash talk It’s disgusting.”
"That proves that they are effective, doesn't it?" Lin Tian smiled, and the expression on his face became more and more relaxed: "Patrick, look at me, don't blink, I'm going to close my eyes, I'm going to close my eyes, I'm going to Voted!"
"Shh!"
Lin Tian closed his eyes and took a free throw. After he easily hit this free throw that made no difference to him even if he drank water, the Bulls' lead further expanded!
When it was the Knicks' turn to attack, Ewing's actions when he continued to ask for the ball in the low post could be called cautious. He was afraid of being called a foul by the referee. The deeper position requires the ball to engage in fierce physical confrontation with Longley.
He was really afraid of being called for the sixth foul!
Then, after Ewing finally got the ball, he was just about to make a move to attack the inside, when he saw Rodman standing under the basket with a smirk on his face, standing up straight, needless to say, This guy is preparing to commit an offensive foul!
After a slight hesitation, Ewing chose a safer, but definitely inefficient, offensive method.
Mid-range shot!
"Boom!"
Because this shot was a temporary change of attack method after he discovered Rodman, there was no rhythm when he shot it, and it ended in a blacksmith!
Lin Tian once again rushed inside and took the rebound into his arms, but this time, he did not choose to attack quickly!
"No need to rush! Everyone is in position and fight slowly one by one! Let's target their weakest link!" Lin Tian's words made Ewing's eyebrows twitch.
After all, no one needed to tell Lin Tian who the weakest link was. Everyone could guess it. What was even more painful was that Ewing knew that Lin Tian was talking about himself, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Because what Lin Tian said was indeed true. He was indeed fouled by Lin Tian for 3 consecutive rounds!
This time, Lin Tian slowly fell to the position, but instead of calling for a pick-and-roll, he changed direction to shake Hubble away and went straight into the inside!
Facing Ewing's hesitant defense, Lin Tian jumped up easily and freely, holding the ball in both hands and drawing a circle in the air to avoid Ewing's block, and then completed a pull-up layup with his weak-side hand!
"You have nothing to say this time, right? The basket is where you are best at, right?" Lin Tian looked at Ewing after the goal and continued to try to destroy him: "In other words, in fact, what you are best at and what you should be most The place, is it actually the bench or the WNBA court?”
"Is the NBA too competitive for you?"
Ewing no longer resisted Lin Tian's trash talk. He didn't say a word. Instead, he lowered his head and ran all the way to the frontcourt.
This time, he didn't even continue to take position in the low post. Instead, he took the initiative to move to the top of the arc and went to cover Hubble!
But with the Knicks' current situation, if Ewing doesn't take action, others really can't break through the Bulls' defensive formation!
After several consecutive passes from the outside, they still failed to find any good offensive opportunities. Instead, the offensive time became less and less, making the players more and more anxious.
In the end, Ewing got the ball near the free throw line, and then he once again gave up on attacking with the ball, but once again chose to gamble on the feel, and he pulled it up and made a jump shot!
"Boom!"
Not surprisingly, another crisp sound of striking resounded throughout the stadium!
Ewing's touch was too seriously affected by the number of fouls he committed!
Lin Tian grabbed the rebound again, and then everything seemed to be a mirror image. Lin Tian dribbled the ball slowly, taking his time, then quickly passed Hubble, penetrated into the paint, and faced Ewing with another high shot. A layup hit!
Ewing no longer dared to make defensive moves at all, he was afraid that he would be sent off!
Lin Tian's breakthrough has become more and more unscrupulous!
And Ewing's two consecutive offensive attacks, Lin Tian, who looked back, would not give the Knicks a chance to relax!He continuously attacked the inside guarded by Ewing, first causing a foul on Oakley, who was assisting in defense, and made two free throws. Then, after completely mobilizing and disrupting the Knicks' defense, he continuously assisted his teammates to score easily.
The Bulls' offensive status is restored again!
The Knicks are beginning to be unable to keep up with the Bulls' pace!The scores between the two sides began to expand rapidly, and the Bulls' lead became bigger and bigger!
With 1 minute and 20 seconds left in the third quarter, the Bulls already led the Knicks by 22 points!
Although Ewing has not yet received his sixth foul, almost every ball in the Bulls' offensive was scored by hitting the inside he was guarding!
The patron saint of the Knicks and Optimus Prime have become their biggest liability!
But even if this is the case, the Knicks and Van Gundy have no choice at all!They have no other option except letting Ewing continue to play!
After all, with Ewing on the court, there is still some hope, but once he comes off the court, the Knicks are really doomed!
It was not until the last 1 minute and 22 seconds of the third quarter that Lin Tian, who had played the first 35 minutes, finally got a break. With a lead of more than 20 points, Jackson replaced Lin Tian with a wave of his hand. , let him rest.
As Lin Tian walked off the court, the entire United Center gave Lin Tian an overwhelming cheer!
Tonight, Lin Tian is their superhero!
Lin Tian almost single-handedly allowed the Bulls to lead by a full 22 points before the end of the third quarter!
这个夜晚的林天，3节比赛打完，就28投19中，其中3分球16投10中，罚球13罚12中，轰下了60分5篮板7助攻的恐怖数据！
This is a tiebreaker!This is facing the top team that was the best at defending in the 90s!In this kind of game, scoring 60 points in three quarters is simply unbelievable!
How incredible is it?Among the various handicaps and bets given by Las Vegas before the game, one is the data prediction of the main members of both teams.
For example, can Ewing score more than 35 points, can Jordan take more than 26 shots, and so on.
而在这些数据之中，有关于林天的部分，分别是能拿到0-9分：1赔5，拿下10-19分：1赔3，拿下20-29分：1赔6，拿下30-39分：1赔13，其他：1赔29。
What does this odds mean?The so-called highest odds in the game for matching this option basically means that those actuaries feel that it is impossible for Lin Tian to score more than 40 points in this game!
In their eyes, if you buy something else for $50, it basically means you have lost the $50.
No chance!
The best example is the World Cup semi-final 14 years later, Germany's 7:1 match against Brazil.
This 7:1 score is also classified as 'other'.
But Lin Tian played an unparalleled performance tonight, showing his superhuman ability and big heart!
It only took him three quarters to break the record for the highest score in an NBA tie-breaker. It only took Lin Tian three quarters to shock the entire league and make everyone watching this game around the world go crazy!
Even the gap between Lin Tian and Jordan's single-game scoring record in the playoffs that year was only 3 points!
With Lin Tian's state tonight, he might be able to score these 1 points in 3 minute, and exclusively enjoy the glory of scoring the first single game in NBA playoff history!
Therefore, as soon as they saw Lin Tian being replaced on the court, the fans who felt something bad immediately started shouting!
"Lin! We want Lin!"
"Lin! Come on! Come on!"
"Give us Lin! Give us Lin!"
“63！63！63！63！63！”
The fans kept chanting and shouting, hoping that Lin Tian could return to the game instead of sitting on the bench for a whole quarter, wasting such a good opportunity to break the historical record!
Even if the record he broke belongs to Jordan, fans really want to witness the birth of a new record at the scene!
In fact, many fans at the scene actually started to cheer for the Knicks!
In their opinion, as long as the Knicks catch up a little bit and reduce the point difference to about 15 points, Lin Tian will definitely appear in the fourth quarter and break this historical record!
But unfortunately, fans are destined to be disappointed tonight.
Because what hindered Lin Tian from breaking the record was not only Jackson, who didn't like his players to spend garbage time to score points, but also Jordan, who performed very poorly tonight!
在这个晚上，乔丹前三节比赛出战了24分钟，只有9投2中，只拿到了6分3篮板1助攻的糟糕数据。
A severe flu caused Jordan to lose his style!What he loses tonight is probably not only the highest score in a single game in the playoffs that was originally exclusive to him, but also his record of scoring more than 20 points in a single game in the playoffs, which will basically end tonight. period!
In Jordan's previous career, he played 130 playoff games, and his single-game points in all games exceeded 20!
130 consecutive playoff games with more than 20 points, also the longest record in NBA history.
But tonight, this record is likely to end, but fans obviously want to see the birth of a new record more than the end of the old record!
Therefore, within 1 minute and 20 seconds of Lin Tian's absence at the end of the third quarter, the Knicks went on a 5-0 spurt, narrowing the point difference to 17 points!
For this rare offensive wave by the Knicks tonight, the fans at the United Center gave them sincere applause and cheers!
Come on, Knicks!Five more points!
As long as there is another 5:0, Lin Tian will definitely continue to appear!
But the fans' wish is obviously unlikely to be realized tonight.
Because the real leader in their team is not Lin Tian!
During the break, Lin Tian, who was already panting from exhaustion and looking a little pale, was about to stand up and continue playing when a pair of arms forced him back to the bench.
Jordan!
He was standing in front of Lin Tian. This guy said: "15 points! If the Knicks narrow the point difference to 15 points, you go up again. Now, you have to take a good rest! Your current state forces If you continue to fight, you may get injured!"
"Michael is right, trust your teammates Lin."
Jackson said from the side: "You have done enough tonight! Take a rest!"
Seeing the two people preventing him from playing, Lin Tian simply sat back on the bench and said: "15 points! As long as they catch up within 15 points, I will play immediately! Or the point difference does not widen to 3 points within 25 minutes. If it’s the above, I’ll keep going!”
"Then I'm afraid you won't have a chance to appear!" Jordan's lips were still white, and it was still obvious that he was very weak.
But his eyes at this moment are extremely determined!
He has full confidence and will not let Lin Tian appear again!
Lin Tian believes that this is not because Jordan is worried about his record being broken. Jordan just feels that he should take on the responsibility of a leader instead of letting Lin Tian continue to be tired until he is almost paralyzed!
That's what Jordan thought and did.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, facing the New York team's crazy counterattack, he suddenly woke up after sleeping for three quarters. He started with a 45-pointer from a 3-degree angle on the right side!
Then after the Knicks scored a goal, he quickly dribbled the ball forward, picked it up at a 45-degree angle on the left side and threw it!A chasing 3-pointer very similar to Lin Tian also hit!
Then the Knicks missed an attack, and Jordan grabbed the rebound. Taking advantage of the Knicks' unsteady footing, he turned around and forced another 3-pointer from the top of the arc!
In less than 1 minute and 30 seconds, Jordan scored 3 yuan in a row and scored 9 points!
A wave of 9:2!The point difference was expanded to 24 points again!
And this is not the end!
There’s still time during the day!Asking for monthly votes, recommendation votes...
(End of this chapter)
After Lin Tian hit two consecutive 3-pointers, Van Gundy, who has always been slow to respond and doesn't like to adapt, also chose to make early substitutions!
He brought Ewing, who had only rested for more than 1 minute, onto the court. He wanted to add an absolute strength to the team to maintain the team's lead!
As soon as Ewing came on the court, he once again asked for the ball inside. Facing Wennington or Longley, there was actually no difference for Ewing.
It's absolutely easy to play at will!
But this time, Ewing missed!His hook shot after swaying Wennington was unlucky and missed.
As soon as the basketball bounced off the frame, Lin Tian already jumped from the ground, hugged the basketball, then immediately turned around and launched an impact towards the front court again!
"Back on defense! Back on defense! Quick! Faster!" Little Van Gundy's anxious voice sounded from the sidelines. Lin Tian's state tonight is really scary. He must always remind his players to pay attention!
But there is a kind of caution, which is called overkill!
This time, Lin Tian suddenly stopped outside the 3-point line, then bent his knees, looked at the basket, and was about to collect the ball, Starks and Hubble actually jumped up at the same time!
With one look, two people were sent flying. Lin Tian's intimidating power today was evident!
Seeing the two people jumping up at the same time, Lin Tian used his strength again. Before Ewing came back, he had forced his way into the inside and succeeded again in a lightning layup!
In the next 3 minutes, Lin Tian and Ewing fought back and forth. Ewing gave Wennington everything he asked for and almost never missed. After Lin Tian completely missed the 3-pointer, he Every fake move can make the Knicks' perimeter defense feel like a formidable enemy!
Under this situation, Lin Tian's breakthrough became extremely easy, and he hit mid-range pull-up jumpers several times!
It can only be said that Curry's mid-range offense is overshadowed by his three-pointers. When it comes to mid-range, Curry is definitely a 'master' level existence. But because of his history's best three-point shooting ability, Many of his other abilities have been overlooked by fans.
The entire second quarter of the game completely became Lin Tian's show!He is almost omnipotent, including 3-pointers, mid-range, and forced layups. He hits shots again and again, setting new playoff scoring records again and again!
By the end of the second quarter, Lin Tian had scored 38 points!
38 points in the half!
It directly broke the half-time scoring record in NBA history!
Lin Tian's performance in this half was so amazing that it was unbelievable!
整个上半场，林天登场24分钟，19投13中，其中3分球13投8中，罚球5罚4中，在爆砍38分的同时，还有着4篮板2助攻和2抢断的数据入账！
However, even though Lin Tian's performance tonight was so explosive, the Bulls did not gain a big lead.
They only led the Knicks by 48 points, 42:6!
The reason why they only lead by 6 points is because the rest of the Bulls team except Lin Tian only made 21 of 3 shots and only scored 10 points. The most important reason is that Ewing's condition is no worse than Lin Tian!
The King of New York also had perfect statistics of 28 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks in the first half. With him supporting the Knicks inside, the Knicks would not collapse so easily!
In the eyes of more people, the Knicks actually have a greater winning rate so far in this game!
The reason is simple. In this era, scoring inside is obviously greater than scoring outside in terms of importance, difficulty and certainty!Ewing can keep beating Wennington or Longley, but can Lin Tian keep hitting long-range shots?
Most people don’t believe it at all!
Not to mention that although Van Gundy is not good at adapting or being on the spot, his ability to adjust defense and arrange defensive tactics has been praised and praised by Riley!Definitely the top level in the league!
Many people believe that Van Gundy will definitely deploy some tactics against Lin Tian in the second half!
In the Bulls locker room, Jackson poured out chicken soup as usual, giving everyone the best encouragement to continue working hard and maintain this rare lead!To be honest, the first half of the game brought so much shock and surprise to Jackson!
He never expected that Lin Tian could perform such a crazy half-time performance!
Jackson seemed to be constantly encouraging everyone, telling everyone to relax and play well in the second half.
But in fact, Jackson was extremely worried!
The reason is also very simple.
Jordan still looked half-dead. The core of the team only made 8 of 2 shots in the first half and only scored 4 points. This was definitely one of the worst halves of his career!
As for Lin Tian, although his performance in the first half was explosive, Lin Tian was so out of breath that he didn't even have a chance to say a few words. He could only keep gasping for air and greedily breathing in the air, trying to calm himself down as soon as possible. .
Obviously, Lin Tian's physical strength has reached an extremely difficult bottleneck period!
"Is this what it feels like to have unlimited firepower, attack like crazy, and support the team by yourself?" Lin Tian gasped and thought wildly: "It's pretty cool!"
Lin Tian's true thoughts at this moment are actually just one sentence.
The man should be so!
Playing like this makes him happy!
"In the second half of the game, Lin continued to play, but don't rush to attack by yourself. Take a rest first, just rest and be lazy on the court. You will definitely do it! Remember, try to recover as much as possible, which is your biggest and most important goal in the first 3 minutes of the third quarter. Important work! Michael, at the beginning of the second half, we will still use you as the main attack!"
Jackson looked at the players and then at his watch.
In the last 3 minutes before the start of the second half, he finally started to arrange tactics!
Jordan nodded and said: "Give me the ball and I will take you home!"
"Why go home? This is our home court! You can only take us fishing! At least that's the case tonight." Lin Tian, who was sitting in the corner, finally breathed his last. He looked at Jordan and said : "You continue to use your feint to attract their attention, and then you just pull away from me!"
"The protagonist tonight is me, not you! Michael, remember, create space! You can definitely do it!"
Lin Tian's words did not cause any discussion this time, because Lin Tian had done similar things too many times, not to mention that he was the biggest contributor to the team's lead in the first half!He alone scored more than 8% of the team's points. It seems that there is no problem for such a person to be arrogant!
"Lin, your physical strength?" Jackson frowned. He knew better than anyone how much Lin Tian had consumed. As long as Lin Tian's physical strength was not a problem, he wouldn't have been so breathless that he almost coughed up just now.
Jackson was really worried that Lin Tian's physical strength would not be able to hold on. His consumption in the first half was too great!
Jackson was worried that if Lin Tian continued to play uncontrolled singles and attacks like he did in the first half in the third quarter, he might not be able to last until the end of the game and would be completely exhausted!
His consumption is really huge visible to the naked eye!
Although Lin Tian's physical strength is not a shortcoming, it has never been what he is good at!
Facing the Knicks' iron-blooded defense, although Lin Tian had some easy jump shots, they were relatively easy.
After all, Lin Tian still has a lot of tasks on the defensive end, and some physical exertion is simply unavoidable!
Looking at Jackson's worried eyes, Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders easily and said:
"I can hold up coach, don't worry, you just have to lay out your tactics."
Seeing Lin Tian looking so relaxed and Jordan next to him standing half dead and almost unable to stand up, Jackson could only sigh, he had no choice at all.
"The only reason why we played so hotly in the first half but still only led by 6 points is: Ewing played too comfortably! In the second half of the game, we have to attack Ewing from both ends of the offense and defense!"
"Lin, first of all, you, stop picking and rolling with Michael on the offensive end. You pick and roll with Bill, Luke or other people Ewing is defending to attack Ewing! Use your speed and agility to consume him and let him defend. Pay the price!"
"Then, when Ewing gets the ball in the low post again, double-team! Don't hesitate to double-team the person closest to him! Let him distribute the ball, let him hit the ball to the outsiders, and then, Lin, Mai... …Michael, you two, be careful to cut off his passing lanes!”
Halfway through Jackson's words, he still assigned a task to Jordan, even though he knew that with Jordan's physical condition tonight, it would be impossible for him to perform well. After all, according to the team doctor, 99% of the people in this league would be replaced. At this moment, I am afraid that he is lying on the bed motionless, and can only groan and wait for his condition to get better, but Jordan can actually hold on to participate in the game!
His terrifying willpower and desire to win are really scary!
As the halftime was coming to an end, Jackson also finished laying out all the tactical details. After Jackson's order, everyone on the Bulls team stood up together and walked towards the arena.
Lin Tian was last at this moment, and then suddenly reached into his bag, and then took out a veteran cadre thermos cup. When no one was paying attention, Lin Tian raised his neck and drank continuously. Two big mouthfuls.
This is another treasure that has been hidden in Lin Tian's system.
'Wolfberry thermos cup'!
Each sip can restore 10% of physical strength. You can only drink three sips a day. Lin Tian only has a total of 5 sips.
But when the game reached this point, Lin Tian had no need to hold anything back. He just drank it in two gulps, and his physical strength immediately recovered by 20%!
The painful tearing feeling in his lungs and the fatigue all over his body disappeared almost instantly. Not to mention being resurrected with full health, Lin Tian was resurrected with at least half health at this moment!
In the second half of the game, his task is more important than in the first half!
With the referee's whistle, both sides stood on the court at the same time.
The first wave of offensive ball rights still belong to the Bulls!
Lin Tian dribbled the ball all the way to the frontcourt. This time, he clearly felt that Hubble's full-court defense was stronger and tighter. In terms of intensity, it was close to a full-court press!
Even if Lin Tian speeds up and passes him immediately, Hubble will quickly catch up with his life and never let Lin Tian get the shooting space he did in the first half!
When Lin Tian came to the frontcourt, not only did Hubble immediately defend him closely, but Ward next to him immediately moved a step towards this side, as if as long as Lin Tian dared to attack, he would immediately step forward to cover him. folder!
Needless to say, this is the tactic deployed by Van Gundy!
Use stronger defensive intensity and higher defensive level to consume Lin Tian!
Let him be as tired as possible, and at the same time, no longer give Lin Tian any chance to easily shoot 3-pointers. Judging from the current state of the Bulls, as long as Lin Tian is locked, the Knicks' chances are very good!
In any case, Lin Tian's 38 points in the first half was really scary!
Jackson and Van Gundy are tied in terms of midfield arrangement.
The purpose of both parties is exactly the same, that is consumption!
Consume the opponent's best and most important person tonight!
Hubble's full-court press and the 'threat' of Ward stepping forward to double-team at any time did not scare Lin Tian. He stepped back slightly, and then quickly called for cover!
This time, it was no longer Jordan who came over, but Longley on the inside, striding toward the outside.
Taking advantage of Longley's wide body, Lin Tian blocked Hubble's defense with a change of direction. He raised his eyes to observe the positions of the players on both sides. Lin Tian discovered that Ewing did not follow Longley out, but squatted down. Trap the basket!
This means that Lin Tian got a huge open opportunity!
How could Lin Tian miss this opportunity?
Even though Hubble was so angry that he stretched out his hand, after all, there was Wennington between him and Lin Tian. As long as Wennington stood there motionless, with his strong body and fierce appearance, he could do the best for him. Lin Tian escorts you!
"Shh!"
Seeing Hubble being stuck, Ewing had no intention of coming out. Lin Tian did not hesitate at all, and decisively took another 3-pointer along the 3-point line and hit it!
Lin Tian looked at Ewing and said with a smile: "You coward, you don't dare to come out to fight me, do you? If you dare to come outside the 3-point line, see if I can knock you over!"
"Boy, don't be proud!" Ewing was so angry at Lin Tian's trash talk. This time he quickly ran to the frontcourt. After blocking Wennington with his back, Ewing asked for the ball with great force and said at the same time. : "Aren't you the same? You don't dare to fight or face a monster like me in the basket, right?"
"Monster? Where is the monster? Why can't I see it?" Lin Tian exaggeratedly stretched out a hand as a telescope, turned his head around and said: "Is Olajuwon coming? Or is O'Neal coming? Or maybe David... Robinson or Alonzo Mourning?"
"Aren't they all there? Then where are the monsters? Where are the monsters under the basket? Huh?"
Lin Tian's arrogance and defiance made Ewing furious again. The guy suddenly turned around and once again passed Wennington cleanly. Then, just as he was about to collect the ball and take off, Jordan, who had been ignored by Ewing, suddenly appeared. , slapped him out with one slap!
"Snapped!"
This time the ball was intercepted extremely crisply, and the basketball was snatched directly into Jordan's arms. Then Jordan quickly gave the ball to Lin Tian and asked him to dribble forward!
Even though Hubble and Ward almost rushed towards Lin Tian to stop his rapid advancement, Lin Tian didn't even look at these two people, and ran towards the frontcourt with his head lowered!
Then outside the 3-point line, Lin Tian suddenly stopped again, raised his head and bent his knees, then pulled up to shoot!
Hubble, who had been shot by Lin Tian for a long time and was about to go crazy, had obviously overreacted. Lin Tian had just finished half of his fake move when Hubble jumped vertically like a stress reaction!
Lin Tian immediately turned around, brushed past Hubble, and headed inside!
"boom!"
After a bang, Lin Tian dunked and scored another 2 points for the team!
The point difference between the two sides exceeded 10 points for the first time in this game!
Fortunately, the Knicks still have Ewing on the side. He once again received the basketball and made a half-shot shot from mid-range!The score difference was reduced back to single digits.
In the next 3 or 4 minutes, the two sides once again started a tug-of-war. The Bulls double-teamed Ewing frantically, making it difficult for him to complete singles. Fortunately, the Knicks' perimeter and role players also found them at this time. state.
After receiving Ewing's points, they were finally able to start hitting some open shots, which also relieved Ewing's pressure on the inside a lot.
On the defensive end, the Knicks simply stopped being secretive and began to double-team Lin Tian!
Naked and double-teamed directly from a high position!
In the Bulls game, Jordan was there, but the one who was double-teamed was a rookie!
Throughout Jordan's entire career, this is definitely the first time this has happened!
But Jordan didn't complain at this moment. He just stood at the opposite corner of Lin Tian and opened up space for him.
Jordan's choice prevents the Knicks' defensive attention from focusing too much on Lin Tian. After all, this is Michael Jordan!Not to mention that he just had the flu and didn't have the energy to play. Even if he had a broken leg, he could only lie down on the court. The Knicks also watched him to prevent him from scoring suddenly.
In addition to opening up space for Lin Tian to smoke in the corner, Jordan would immediately come to Lin Tian and cooperate with Lin Tian in pick-and-rolls as long as Lin Tian gestured to him.
This is definitely an extremely rare and even unique game in Jordan's entire career where he provides cover and assists others!
Lin Tian also lived up to Jordan's efforts. Although the Knicks double-teamed him to the point of madness, almost as soon as he passed halftime, someone rushed over to help defend him, but Lin Tian's passes could always be penetrated. Knicks defense!
In the second half of the game, it wasn't just the Knicks' role players who found their form, Kukoc also found some feeling!
He received passes from Lin Tian three times in the second half. Although he did not choose to rush into the paint, he hit two mid-range shots and a three-pointer, which also caused huge problems for the Knicks' defense.
Their double-teaming on Lin Tian began to relax!
Throughout the first half of the third quarter, due to the crazy double-teaming of the Knicks, Lin Tian, except for the 5 consecutive points at the beginning, was never able to find a suitable offensive opportunity and was unable to increase his scoring. , but Lin Tian’s points also made the Knicks lose sight of one thing.
In addition to Kukoc's 7 points, Longley and Rodman also seized an opportunity, stole the chicken under the basket and completed a dunk!
As for the Knicks, Hubble, Ward and Willie Anderson, who was named the starter today, also found the feeling and seized the opportunity!They hit long-range shots and layups one after another, and continued to contribute to the team on the offensive end. They also made the Bulls' double-teaming of Ewing mediocre!
Six minutes into the third quarter, the two sides entered the first timeout of the third quarter.
At this time, the score between the two sides also became 64:55!
The two sides struggled for several minutes over the 10-point difference.
And when the timeout ended, in addition to the appearance of shooters and offensive players such as Cole and Starks, the defensive tactics of both sides also changed!
Because of the explosion of role players and the emergence of players who are better at attacking, the coaches on both sides did not dare to continue double-teaming. They invariably returned to the regular one-on-one defense!
It's still Langley vs. Ewing, Hubble vs. Lin Tian!
In the tiebreaker, both Jackson and Van Gundy became more conservative and prudent than before, and did not dare to use overly aggressive and crazy tactics for a long time. They would rather lose with the most conventional tactics than be defeated by their opponents because of being too aggressive. Hit the offensive climax!
In the first attack after returning from the timeout, Ewing once again dangled Longley in the mid-range, and then he leaned and nudged, and the basketball obediently got into the basket!
At the same time, the referee also blew the whistle for a foul!
2+1!
As soon as Ewing came back from the timeout, facing a one-on-one defense, he hit an extremely tough and crucial 2+1!
He is using practical actions to prove: A person?There is no way you can restrain me!
Seeing Ewing steadily hit the free throw at the free throw line, Lin Tian spit out the braces he asked the staff to find during halftime, bit it in his mouth and kept spinning it, and he silently made a decision in his heart.
Next, we must continue to focus on Ewing!
If you want to win this game, you must defeat Ewing first!
Otherwise, God knows how much this inside behemoth will wreak havoc on the Bulls' inside line!
So, when Lin Tian dribbled to the frontcourt again, facing Hubble's single defense, he called for cover again!
This time, it is no longer Jordan who poses the greatest offensive threat but has never made many moves!
This time, it was Longley who rushed out from the inside!
After tightly blocking Hubble, Lin Tian once again gained a lot of space outside the 3-point line!
Seeing that Ewing didn't make the save, Lin would have been polite to him. He pulled it up and shot another 3-pointer!
"Shh!"
After a crisp sound, Lin Tian hit his 10th three-pointer tonight!
A new NBA playoff record for 3-point field goals in a single game is born!
Of course, if you can only break records but not win, then any data is just a joke! In the NBA, everything is empty except victory!
After scoring the goal, Lin Tian stretched out his thumb towards Ewing, and then quickly gestured his thumb downward a few times. Not to mention, before the referee noticed Lin Tian's provocation, Lin Tian quickly took it again. Made a move that New Yorkers hate the most.
'Throat Cutting Ceremony'!
In last year's Eastern Conference semifinals, the Pacers' Miller made this move to Ewing and the entire Madison Square Garden fans after hitting a decisive 3-pointer!
Lin Tian's move undoubtedly touched the fragile nerves and sensitive self-esteem of all Knicks players!
"FUXX! Are you looking for death, kid!" Ewing cursed, completely ignoring the fact that Lin Tian killed three Knicks generals in a one-on-three fight a few days ago, and rushed towards Lin Tian with strode!
"Calm down! Calm down Patrick! If you are sent off, we are finished!" Van Gundy reacted quickly on the sidelines and yelled at Ewing quickly, hoping that he would regain his composure. The one who moved faster than Ewing was on the court. The referees on the side quickly rushed into the court and stood between Lin Tian and Ewing.
"Technical foul! Technical foul boy!" the referee yelled at Lin Tian angrily: "You have already ruined this series, are you going to ruin it again? If you make any provocative moves again and we find out , I don’t care if this is Chicago or wherever, I will definitely kick you out of the stadium!”
Lin Tian shrugged his shoulders and didn't say another word. His eyes when he looked at Ewing were still full of provocation and disdain.
Seeing Ewing's eyes that were almost bursting with fire, Lin Tian knew that his goal had been achieved!
Ewing was completely angered!
His ability to control emotions has always been poor.
Although he paid the price of a technical foul, Lin Tian knew that this was definitely a bargain!
"Patrick, calm down! He is deliberately irritating you! Just do what you are good at! Do what you should do!" Van Gundy held Ewing's arm and kept persuading: "Your job is to guard Basket! For the rest, just trust your teammates!"
No one knows whether Van Gundy's persuasion is of any use, but everyone knows that the next game between the two sides will be extremely fierce and bloody!
As Starks made a technical free throw, Ewing quickly found an opportunity to hit a hook shot near the basket. Tonight, Ewing can definitely bear the title of one of the top four centers!He destroyed the Bulls' entire inside line!
Although Rodman was in poor physical condition and had no strength to help defend, and Pippen, the Bulls' strongest defensive point, did not play these factors, Ewing took on everything on the Knicks' offensive end in the tiebreaker!
As the Knicks hit 1+2, the advantage Lin Tian had just hit the 3-pointer was once again wiped out. The Knicks' pursuit never stopped!
Then, when Lin Tian came to the frontcourt again, he called for a pick-and-roll again!It's still Longley, still going to beat Ewing!
"Boy, are you looking for death?" This time, Ewing finally came out from the inside!He wanted Lin Tian to know what would happen if he provoked him!
Facing Ewing who rushed out, Lin Tian was not in a hurry this time!
After he stretched out his hands and signaled everyone to pull away from him, he showed off his fancy dribbling moves from a high position, constantly changing directions, dribbling behind his back, and under his crotch.
Coupled with the constant changes in rhythm, Ewing's footsteps and focus were constantly mobilized and deceived by Lin Tian!
Even though Ewing is definitely one of the top defenders and rim protectors in the league, it is still beyond his ability to defend a defender with top speed and rhythm on the outside!
Even many fans can see that if Lin Tian wants to get past him, just one second is enough!
However, after Lin Tian moved at the top of the arc for more than 10 seconds, after Ewing's patience was almost completely exhausted, Lin Tian suddenly accelerated to the middle distance, glanced back with his peripheral vision, and confirmed You Yin had already reached the extreme speed for the pursuit, and it was absolutely impossible for him to stop suddenly. After that, Lin Tian stopped!
"Oh!"
Ewing behind him couldn't brake in time and knocked Lin Tian to the ground.
Before Lin Tian fell to the ground, he threw the basketball with a high throw!
"Shh!"
A crisp sound sounded shortly after.
The entire United Center Arena suddenly burst into earth-shattering cheers and shouts!
"Lin! That's awesome!"
"Kill these smug New Yorkers!"
"What Ewing! Can't you just follow Lin's ass and eat shit?"
"2+1! Continue 2+1! One more!"
Lin Tian, who was pressed by Ewing, did not lie on the floor for too long. At this time, there was no need to lie on the floor and pretend to be dead. He pushed Ewing away and got up from the ground. , biting his braces arrogantly, looked at Ewing and said:
"Your defense is good. You are almost able to catch up with me. Keep up the good work!"
After saying that, Lin Tian did not make any more provocations this time.
Instead, he went straight to the free throw line and prepared to take the free throw!
"Shh!"
After easily hitting the 1-point free throw, Lin Tian nuzzled at Ewing. Although he didn't say a word, everyone understood what he meant.
"I scored another 3 points, it's your turn!"
"FUXX!" Ewing's eyes became fierce and determined for the first time in this game!
He didn't believe it. It was true that I couldn't compare to Jordan, but how could I be compared to a rookie like you?
"Tony, Michael, prepare to help defend! He will definitely not pass this ball!" Lin Tian whispered to Jordan and Kukoc on the way back to defense.
"Damn bastard!" Jordan's voice was getting weaker and weaker now, even though he actually only took 6 shots all night, and even though on the defensive end he was always facing the Knicks' worst offensive player, Wolves. De and others, but the strong flu symptoms still made him feel almost exhausted.
But despite this, facing Lin Tian's command, Jordan still chose to execute it obediently!
When Ewing once again asked for the ball in the low post for a single, Jordan and Kukoc, who had already shown confidence, rushed towards Ewing with one left and one right!
Ewing, who was originally determined to play alone and never pass the ball, didn't expect the Bulls' defense to change so quickly. Without checking, the basketball in his hand was slapped down by Kukoc!
Then Jordan had quick eyes and quick hands. After hugging the basketball, he gave the ball to Lin Tian again!
Lin Tian didn't hesitate after holding the ball. The speed that made the entire New York and Knicks teams desperate broke out again. He dribbled the ball and flew towards the frontcourt!
How dare the five players on the entire Knicks team relax at all?They followed Lin Tian closely, and the five of them retreated quickly, trying to contain Lin Tian's fast attack.
But when they caught up with Lin Tian after playing with their old lives, Lin Tian suddenly stopped again!
He did not directly shoot 3-pointers, nor did he take advantage of the Knicks' chaotic formation to rush inside to score points.
Instead, he stopped outside the 3-point line and began to direct his teammates to get into position!
He himself gave up an excellent opportunity to score easily in transition from offense to defense!
Then, Lin Tian looked at the Knicks who had already settled in, and once again called Longley to step forward to cover!
What this means is self-evident.
Patrick Ewing - Out!
Get ready for military training!
At this time, even the home fans at the United Center took a breath of air!
This little rookie is so arrogant!
Is it really that hard?You have to pick the strongest and most ruthless point on the opposite side and chase it to death?
Where in his life has Ewing ever been so angry?Panting heavily, he rushed out from the inside with a domineering step, and once again stood in front of Lin Tian!
This time, Lin Tian did not continue to show off and dribble on the spot. Since he wanted to beat Ewing, since the purpose was to beat his mentality to collapse, he had to use something different!
This time, Lin Tian clung to Ewing's body, and the ball protector even took the initiative to hang on Ewing's arm. The two of them stuck together and rushed inside!
"Boy! Don't even try to break through me! You're done!" Ewing, who thought he had finally caught up with Lin Tian, was extremely proud!
What a 'Lightning Boy', what an amazing speed, why haven't I caught up with him!
But of course his pride could not last long.
Just when the two people approached the 3-second zone, Lin Tian suddenly jumped up!
If you just jump up, that's nothing.But Lin Tian is not as simple as simply jumping up!
As Lin Tian took off, Ewing was extremely surprised to find that he couldn't pull his arm back!His arm was clamped by Lin Tian!
But who is dragging whom? I am afraid that only Lin Tian and Ewing know at this moment!
How can anyone understand this kind of 'touching porcelain' technique that is truly ahead of its time?
As a result, the referees and fans on the scene, and even Ewing himself, all determined the fact almost at the same time.
Ewing fouled!
With Lin Tian screaming and throwing the ball out with an extremely exaggerated gesture, the referee's whistle sounded on time!
"Thugs foul! 2 free throws!"
Ewing stood there, looking helplessly at the referee.
He also felt that he had committed a foul on this ball. Otherwise, why would Lin Tian's arm be entangled with his own and still completely inseparable?
But he didn't want to commit a foul, and he didn't even make a move!He himself didn't understand why Lin Tian's arm was entangled with his own, and it was so tight!
Ewing's little head and his very limited and very lazy brain cells were spinning and thinking rapidly at this moment.
Well, I can’t figure it out, I can’t figure it out at all!
Ewing didn't understand how he committed the foul until Lin Tian made two free throws, let alone how his hand got wrapped around Lin Tian's arm.
And even if he couldn't figure it out, he had been fouled by Lin Tian twice in a row, and he had already committed his fourth foul!
With one and a half quarters left in the game, his foul count is definitely very dangerous!
If it doesn't work well, he will be killed directly!
Little Van Gundy on the sidelines was even more worried and kept pacing on the sidelines.
He was hesitating whether to replace Ewing.
Logically speaking, he has to replace Ewing, but Van Gundy also knows the situation of tonight's game. As long as he removes Ewing, Ewing will not have to play again tonight. Without Ewing, the Bulls will Lin Tian can completely defeat the game in minutes!
Do not change!
After hesitating for less than 20 seconds, as Ewing scored another goal in the paint and continued to hold on to the score, Van Gundy shattered his molars and decided to give it a try!
He can only give it a try!
In this situation tonight, Ewing must not end up!
"Patrick! Be careful, don't get fouled again! Pay attention to the number of fouls you commit!" Van Gundy really had no other option besides shouting for Ewing to pay attention.
"Derek! Squeeze the screen! Don't let this kid face Patrick easily again! Charles, and you, if this kid targets Patrick again, you go and counter him! Switch defense! Pay attention to the communication on the defensive end!"
"If you're scared, just take him off." Lin Tian happened to pass by at this time and heard Van Gundy's command: "If you don't take him off now, I guarantee that this weakling will be gone before the third quarter is over. You will get your sixth foul!"
"Boy, who are you looking down on!" Ewing's eyes widened for the nth time tonight.
"I look down on you!"
Lin Tian looked at Ewing provocatively, and then, once again, called for Langley's cover!
This time, Hubble, who was blocked twice in a row, squeezed forward desperately and squeezed past Longley's screen without letting the screen take effect.
At this time, he must protect Ewing!Lin Tian can no longer be allowed to attack their only strong point on the field. Who would have thought that Ewing would one day become a burden on the Knicks' defense?
However, Hubble didn't have time to be happy that he successfully squeezed through the screen this time and completed the protection of Ewing.
Because Lin Tian was not in a hurry to attack at all, but after stabilizing himself, he asked Longley to cover him again!
This time it was Oakley who rushed forward!
Anyway, Rodman didn't have much offensive ability. Oakley took the initiative to rush over and complete the defense switch against Lin Tian!
The Knicks are determined not to let Ewing be exposed to Lin Tian again!
But is it useful?
Obviously not!
Lin Tian’s patience exceeded everyone’s imagination on the Knicks team!
He stepped back slightly again, pulled Oakley out of the 3-point line, and then called Longley for a screen again!
This time, Ewing finally had no way to avoid it!
Facing Lin Tian, who has already hit 10 three-pointers, how can the Knicks dare to let him fire from the outside like they did in the first half?
In addition, after three consecutive pick-and-rolls, the attack time has only the last three seconds left. Ewing is confident that in three seconds, you will never be able to cause me to foul again!On the contrary, I want to avenge my previous shame this time and teach Lin Tian a good lesson!
Go around the screen and watch as Longley blocks Oakley in front of him and Ewing darts out of the paint.
Lin Tian only glanced at the time and then jumped to collect the ball, as if he was about to pull up and shoot directly!
"You're done, kid!" Upon seeing this, Ewing jumped up excitedly!He couldn't wait to give Lin Tian a bloody hat to let him know that New Yorkers are definitely not to be messed with!
But when Ewing took off, he finally realized something was wrong!
Lin Tian is so patient!
There were only 2 seconds left in the attack time. Instead of shooting directly, he used a fake move to stun the opponent!
What is this operation?
Instead of taking advantage of the small opening to quickly shoot, he made a fake move?
Do you know what basketball knowledge is?Can you play ball?Didn't the coach teach you that if your opponent doesn't jump when you fake a move like this, the ball will be completely dead, and you won't have time to make any more coordination, and the entire round will be completely blocked, and there will be a 24-second offensive violation?
Didn't Phil Jackson teach these most basic basketball knowledge to his players?
FUXX!
A series of curse words and his understanding of basketball flashed through Ewing's mind. He couldn't imagine why this kid was so sure that he could take off and would be fooled?
I thought, Ewing must not have figured it out, because after Lin Tian successfully tricked him into jumping, he also jumped towards Ewing.
It’s still a rub, a twist, a flick of the wrist!
"Boom!"
The only pity may be that Lin Tian's 3-pointer failed to hit!
Didn't score 3+1, just got 3 free throws.
But the referee's whistle did not disappoint Lin Tian!
Ewing was called for 3 fouls in 3 consecutive rounds!
In the blink of an eye, he committed 5 fouls!
Just one more move, one more big move, and Ewing will be kicked off the court!
He has reached the critical point of leaving!
For almost all players, the meaning of 5 fouls is not just as simple as 'only one foul left before being sent off'.
For almost everyone, five fouls means that in subsequent games, whether offensive or defensive, he will become cautious and cautious, fearing that he will be called for a foul, which will lead to greater contribution and energy on both ends of the offense and defense. reduction in amplitude.
The defensive end didn’t dare to make moves, the offensive end didn’t dare to exert force, and the rebounding end didn’t dare to get stuck...
Not to mention that there are some referees who have such a special hobby of sending off players with five fouls!Just like the collecting habit when playing games, they will focus on players who have committed 5 fouls, as if sending them off as soon as possible will give the referees a different sense of accomplishment!
Not to mention this guy Ewing, he must be very strong, but his mental quality is very poor!
Known for being a softie at critical moments and a loser in big scenes!
This is why among the ranking of the four major centers, the top three are always indistinguishable and will change positions from time to time, but he is always at the bottom, and has never even been promoted to third!
Without him, being defeated at critical moments and unable to withstand pressure and play against the wind are his biggest shortcomings!
They lost to the Bulls four times in a row, the Rockets in the Finals the year before last, and the Pacers last year. Among the Knicks' failures over the years, I don't blame Ewing for every one of them, but Ewing was absolutely unable to stand up at critical moments. It is one of the biggest reasons why the team has never been able to reach the top.
Therefore, when Ewing got his fifth foul, the entire United Center was completely boiling!
Do they know who Ewing is, and what are the weaknesses of this old rival? They didn't even need a DJ to set the rhythm, and the fans spontaneously shouted slogans.
"6 offenses! 6 offenses! 6 offenses!"
"6 offenses! 6 offenses! 6 offenses!"
"6 offenses! 6 offenses! 6 offenses!"
The overwhelming boos made Ewing's mentality even worse!
The worst thing for the Knicks is that even if they know that Ewing's mentality has begun to change tonight, even if they know that if Ewing continues to stay on the court, he will definitely become the target of the Bulls' attack, they But he still didn't dare to replace Ewing.
There is no way, this is their only support!
"Patrick, I guess you need a diaper now." Lin Tian walked to the free throw line and looked at the somewhat distracted Ewing. Lin Tian knew that the Bulls had already won this game tonight: "Because you must I peed my pants already!”
"To shut up!"
Ewing's response has become obvious that he is strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and lacks strength.
He didn't even look up at Lin Tian. Even a blind man could see his dejected look.
Ewing is finished!
"How long do you think you can stay on the court? Do you want me to book a private room in the nightclub for you in advance? After all, you need to relax and forget the failure." Lin Tian hit the first free throw.
"Or do you want to be alone for a while? I have a few door-to-door service phone numbers that I can also provide to you. I guarantee that you will forget the shadow of failure and enter the leisure state of the holiday as soon as possible." Lin Tianzhong was hit. The second free throw.
"Perhaps it's more realistic. How about I shoot a free throw with my eyes closed? Just think of it as giving you one point, so that you don't have to work so hard to catch up." Lin Tian patted the basketball while looking at Ewing, and continued to rubbish. The words were output, making Ewing's mentality even worse and uncomfortable.
"Can you shut up and say less?"
A voice representing justice suddenly came.
To Lin Tian's surprise, it was not a certain Knicks player, not Van Gundy, or even a player on the court who said this to Lin Tian.
The bottom line referee said it.
The referee couldn't help but rolled his eyes and looked at Lin Tiandao: "Of course, I'm just a suggestion. You don't have to adopt it, and I won't call you a technical foul because of this, but I have to say, your trash talk It’s disgusting.”
"That proves that they are effective, doesn't it?" Lin Tian smiled, and the expression on his face became more and more relaxed: "Patrick, look at me, don't blink, I'm going to close my eyes, I'm going to close my eyes, I'm going to Voted!"
"Shh!"
Lin Tian closed his eyes and took a free throw. After he easily hit this free throw that made no difference to him even if he drank water, the Bulls' lead further expanded!
When it was the Knicks' turn to attack, Ewing's actions when he continued to ask for the ball in the low post could be called cautious. He was afraid of being called a foul by the referee. The deeper position requires the ball to engage in fierce physical confrontation with Longley.
He was really afraid of being called for the sixth foul!
Then, after Ewing finally got the ball, he was just about to make a move to attack the inside, when he saw Rodman standing under the basket with a smirk on his face, standing up straight, needless to say, This guy is preparing to commit an offensive foul!
After a slight hesitation, Ewing chose a safer, but definitely inefficient, offensive method.
Mid-range shot!
"Boom!"
Because this shot was a temporary change of attack method after he discovered Rodman, there was no rhythm when he shot it, and it ended in a blacksmith!
Lin Tian once again rushed inside and took the rebound into his arms, but this time, he did not choose to attack quickly!
"No need to rush! Everyone is in position and fight slowly one by one! Let's target their weakest link!" Lin Tian's words made Ewing's eyebrows twitch.
After all, no one needed to tell Lin Tian who the weakest link was. Everyone could guess it. What was even more painful was that Ewing knew that Lin Tian was talking about himself, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Because what Lin Tian said was indeed true. He was indeed fouled by Lin Tian for 3 consecutive rounds!
This time, Lin Tian slowly fell to the position, but instead of calling for a pick-and-roll, he changed direction to shake Hubble away and went straight into the inside!
Facing Ewing's hesitant defense, Lin Tian jumped up easily and freely, holding the ball in both hands and drawing a circle in the air to avoid Ewing's block, and then completed a pull-up layup with his weak-side hand!
"You have nothing to say this time, right? The basket is where you are best at, right?" Lin Tian looked at Ewing after the goal and continued to try to destroy him: "In other words, in fact, what you are best at and what you should be most The place, is it actually the bench or the WNBA court?”
"Is the NBA too competitive for you?"
Ewing no longer resisted Lin Tian's trash talk. He didn't say a word. Instead, he lowered his head and ran all the way to the frontcourt.
This time, he didn't even continue to take position in the low post. Instead, he took the initiative to move to the top of the arc and went to cover Hubble!
But with the Knicks' current situation, if Ewing doesn't take action, others really can't break through the Bulls' defensive formation!
After several consecutive passes from the outside, they still failed to find any good offensive opportunities. Instead, the offensive time became less and less, making the players more and more anxious.
In the end, Ewing got the ball near the free throw line, and then he once again gave up on attacking with the ball, but once again chose to gamble on the feel, and he pulled it up and made a jump shot!
"Boom!"
Not surprisingly, another crisp sound of striking resounded throughout the stadium!
Ewing's touch was too seriously affected by the number of fouls he committed!
Lin Tian grabbed the rebound again, and then everything seemed to be a mirror image. Lin Tian dribbled the ball slowly, taking his time, then quickly passed Hubble, penetrated into the paint, and faced Ewing with another high shot. A layup hit!
Ewing no longer dared to make defensive moves at all, he was afraid that he would be sent off!
Lin Tian's breakthrough has become more and more unscrupulous!
And Ewing's two consecutive offensive attacks, Lin Tian, who looked back, would not give the Knicks a chance to relax!He continuously attacked the inside guarded by Ewing, first causing a foul on Oakley, who was assisting in defense, and made two free throws. Then, after completely mobilizing and disrupting the Knicks' defense, he continuously assisted his teammates to score easily.
The Bulls' offensive status is restored again!
The Knicks are beginning to be unable to keep up with the Bulls' pace!The scores between the two sides began to expand rapidly, and the Bulls' lead became bigger and bigger!
With 1 minute and 20 seconds left in the third quarter, the Bulls already led the Knicks by 22 points!
Although Ewing has not yet received his sixth foul, almost every ball in the Bulls' offensive was scored by hitting the inside he was guarding!
The patron saint of the Knicks and Optimus Prime have become their biggest liability!
But even if this is the case, the Knicks and Van Gundy have no choice at all!They have no other option except letting Ewing continue to play!
After all, with Ewing on the court, there is still some hope, but once he comes off the court, the Knicks are really doomed!
It was not until the last 1 minute and 22 seconds of the third quarter that Lin Tian, who had played the first 35 minutes, finally got a break. With a lead of more than 20 points, Jackson replaced Lin Tian with a wave of his hand. , let him rest.
As Lin Tian walked off the court, the entire United Center gave Lin Tian an overwhelming cheer!
Tonight, Lin Tian is their superhero!
Lin Tian almost single-handedly allowed the Bulls to lead by a full 22 points before the end of the third quarter!
这个夜晚的林天，3节比赛打完，就28投19中，其中3分球16投10中，罚球13罚12中，轰下了60分5篮板7助攻的恐怖数据！
This is a tiebreaker!This is facing the top team that was the best at defending in the 90s!In this kind of game, scoring 60 points in three quarters is simply unbelievable!
How incredible is it?Among the various handicaps and bets given by Las Vegas before the game, one is the data prediction of the main members of both teams.
For example, can Ewing score more than 35 points, can Jordan take more than 26 shots, and so on.
而在这些数据之中，有关于林天的部分，分别是能拿到0-9分：1赔5，拿下10-19分：1赔3，拿下20-29分：1赔6，拿下30-39分：1赔13，其他：1赔29。
What does this odds mean?The so-called highest odds in the game for matching this option basically means that those actuaries feel that it is impossible for Lin Tian to score more than 40 points in this game!
In their eyes, if you buy something else for $50, it basically means you have lost the $50.
No chance!
The best example is the World Cup semi-final 14 years later, Germany's 7:1 match against Brazil.
This 7:1 score is also classified as 'other'.
But Lin Tian played an unparalleled performance tonight, showing his superhuman ability and big heart!
It only took him three quarters to break the record for the highest score in an NBA tie-breaker. It only took Lin Tian three quarters to shock the entire league and make everyone watching this game around the world go crazy!
Even the gap between Lin Tian and Jordan's single-game scoring record in the playoffs that year was only 3 points!
With Lin Tian's state tonight, he might be able to score these 1 points in 3 minute, and exclusively enjoy the glory of scoring the first single game in NBA playoff history!
Therefore, as soon as they saw Lin Tian being replaced on the court, the fans who felt something bad immediately started shouting!
"Lin! We want Lin!"
"Lin! Come on! Come on!"
"Give us Lin! Give us Lin!"
“63！63！63！63！63！”
The fans kept chanting and shouting, hoping that Lin Tian could return to the game instead of sitting on the bench for a whole quarter, wasting such a good opportunity to break the historical record!
Even if the record he broke belongs to Jordan, fans really want to witness the birth of a new record at the scene!
In fact, many fans at the scene actually started to cheer for the Knicks!
In their opinion, as long as the Knicks catch up a little bit and reduce the point difference to about 15 points, Lin Tian will definitely appear in the fourth quarter and break this historical record!
But unfortunately, fans are destined to be disappointed tonight.
Because what hindered Lin Tian from breaking the record was not only Jackson, who didn't like his players to spend garbage time to score points, but also Jordan, who performed very poorly tonight!
在这个晚上，乔丹前三节比赛出战了24分钟，只有9投2中，只拿到了6分3篮板1助攻的糟糕数据。
A severe flu caused Jordan to lose his style!What he loses tonight is probably not only the highest score in a single game in the playoffs that was originally exclusive to him, but also his record of scoring more than 20 points in a single game in the playoffs, which will basically end tonight. period!
In Jordan's previous career, he played 130 playoff games, and his single-game points in all games exceeded 20!
130 consecutive playoff games with more than 20 points, also the longest record in NBA history.
But tonight, this record is likely to end, but fans obviously want to see the birth of a new record more than the end of the old record!
Therefore, within 1 minute and 20 seconds of Lin Tian's absence at the end of the third quarter, the Knicks went on a 5-0 spurt, narrowing the point difference to 17 points!
For this rare offensive wave by the Knicks tonight, the fans at the United Center gave them sincere applause and cheers!
Come on, Knicks!Five more points!
As long as there is another 5:0, Lin Tian will definitely continue to appear!
But the fans' wish is obviously unlikely to be realized tonight.
Because the real leader in their team is not Lin Tian!
During the break, Lin Tian, who was already panting from exhaustion and looking a little pale, was about to stand up and continue playing when a pair of arms forced him back to the bench.
Jordan!
He was standing in front of Lin Tian. This guy said: "15 points! If the Knicks narrow the point difference to 15 points, you go up again. Now, you have to take a good rest! Your current state forces If you continue to fight, you may get injured!"
"Michael is right, trust your teammates Lin."
Jackson said from the side: "You have done enough tonight! Take a rest!"
Seeing the two people preventing him from playing, Lin Tian simply sat back on the bench and said: "15 points! As long as they catch up within 15 points, I will play immediately! Or the point difference does not widen to 3 points within 25 minutes. If it’s the above, I’ll keep going!”
"Then I'm afraid you won't have a chance to appear!" Jordan's lips were still white, and it was still obvious that he was very weak.
But his eyes at this moment are extremely determined!
He has full confidence and will not let Lin Tian appear again!
Lin Tian believes that this is not because Jordan is worried about his record being broken. Jordan just feels that he should take on the responsibility of a leader instead of letting Lin Tian continue to be tired until he is almost paralyzed!
That's what Jordan thought and did.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, facing the New York team's crazy counterattack, he suddenly woke up after sleeping for three quarters. He started with a 45-pointer from a 3-degree angle on the right side!
Then after the Knicks scored a goal, he quickly dribbled the ball forward, picked it up at a 45-degree angle on the left side and threw it!A chasing 3-pointer very similar to Lin Tian also hit!
Then the Knicks missed an attack, and Jordan grabbed the rebound. Taking advantage of the Knicks' unsteady footing, he turned around and forced another 3-pointer from the top of the arc!
In less than 1 minute and 30 seconds, Jordan scored 3 yuan in a row and scored 9 points!
A wave of 9:2!The point difference was expanded to 24 points again!
And this is not the end!
There’s still time during the day!Asking for monthly votes, recommendation votes...
