NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

"Dudu!!"

“Swish! Bang!!”

"Dudu!!"

"Whoa! Whoa!!"

"Dudu!!"

“Bang! Shua!!”

The entire fourth quarter of the game was almost played in this pattern.

The game lasted an unusually long time and the quality of the game was mediocre. Neither side could play any reliable or good-looking offense or system under such circumstances. Even in the last few minutes of the game, players from both sides gave up their tactics and started rushing in with their heads down.

The whistle will blow anyway!

At the same time, the referees were also so overwhelmed with whistles that they no longer cared about controlling the game, winning or losing, or the principles of whistling.

Anyway, if you touch it, I will blow it!
Under this terrible cycle, the game became extremely long.

Normally, an NBA game would end in about two and a half hours. But this evening, because of the large number of free throws by both sides, the game lasted for three hours and ten minutes, with two minutes left in the fourth quarter!
At this time, the game entered a timeout, and even the crazy and passionate Indiana players felt a little bored.

After all, it was such a boring game that lasted for such a long time. No matter how passionate and energetic the fans were, they had almost reached their limit at this moment.

This night is destined to be boring and long!

By this time, the number of free throws for both sides had accumulated to an incredible level.

Carter and Gasol got 13 and 12 free throws respectively, Kidd also got 7 free throws, and Yao Ming, who left the game early, got 8 free throws. The total number of free throws for the entire Nets team has exceeded 50!
As for the Pacers, after the referee's crazy whistles in the fourth quarter, the number of free throws for everyone increased steadily and was no longer so concentrated on Lin Tian alone, but this lack of concentration was only relative to the first three quarters.

Lin Tian took the most free throws in the team in this quarter. He has been to the free throw line 11 times. His free throw number tonight has exceeded 30 times!
32 of 27 free throws!
It is worth mentioning that Lin Tian has surpassed the record set by Michael Jordan against the Knicks that year.

In that game, Jordan made 23 free throws in a single game, making him the second player with the most free throws in a single playoff game in NBA history. Now, this record belongs to Lin Tian, ​​who made 27 free throws in a single game, second in history!

As for the number one ranking, it dates back to 51 years ago. The creator is also Lin Tian’s predecessor, Bob Cousy, who is known as the "first point guard in history". That night, Cousy made 32 of 30 free throws and scored a full 30 points just by free throws!
There are still 2 minutes left in the game, and he is only 3 hits away. Given Lin Tian's explosive free throw ability tonight, it won't be too difficult for him to continue raining 1 point and surpass Cousy's record.

The only difficulty is that time is not very friendly to the Pacers.

There are only 2 minutes left, but the Pacers are still trailing by 7 points!
It's a bit too late for the rain to fall in batches.

If Lin Tian wants to win, he has to come in threes!
Well...it's just a lie!
Pooh!
Just do it!

The timeout is over and the Pacers' offense continues!
Lin Tian dribbled the ball to the frontcourt. Facing Kidd, Lin Tian waved his hand again to signal Bonner to come forward and cover him.

It is worth mentioning that Haslem and Miller have missed the second consecutive game, and now they can only watch from the sidelines.

The same thing happened on the Nets side, with Yao Ming and Kittles fouling out.

Among the players on the court at this moment, Gasol and Kidd both had five fouls and were on the verge of being sent off at any time.

Artest and Christie of the Pacers also had 5 fouls each, and Howard, who was coming off the bench to play at the 3rd position, had 4 fouls.

Both sides might have to fight a few more people tonight!
When Lin Tian called for the screen this time, the entire Nets team immediately felt like they were facing a formidable enemy! They all felt that Lin Tian wanted to get Gasol down as well, so that the Nets' inside advantage, which they relied on for survival, would be completely eliminated.

So this time, when facing the screen, Kidd chose to force his way past Bonner.

He wants to protect Gasol!

However, Kidd obviously forgot that he already had five fouls. He pushed too hard this time, and in order to rush over, he first stretched out his arms to cover Lin Tian, ​​and then moved his body and legs forward.

In this era, it is normal to set a screen like this, and the referee usually won't blow the whistle.

But tonight was different.

The referee went crazy tonight.

In addition, Kidd’s opponent is Lin Tian!
Mr. Lin has mastered the skills of hit-and-run, no, the skills of causing fouls that are far beyond this era!

He aimed at Kidd's arm that was stretched out to interfere, and without thinking, he forced his way forward.

As luck would have it... Kidd felt his hand touching something and he subconsciously grabbed it.

This bad habit was obviously developed when he was hanging out in nightclubs. This guy likes to touch and scratch things with his eyes closed.

But in nightclubs, this habit of touching with his eyes closed allows Kidd to always grab soft things, but on the court, especially on the court tonight, he has to pay a huge price to make a comeback!

"FUXX!" When Lin Tian saw Kidd coming to him, he became even more excited and let out a miserable scream, which made people wonder if Kidd knew the Nine Yin White Bone Claw.

Then Lin Tian naturally jumped up with his arms and legs spread out. Apart from barely completing an action that looked like a shot, his basketball did not fly towards the basket at all.

"Dudu!"

For this kind of ball, the referee really has no choice but to blow the whistle.

This rule is so clear! How clear is it?

The fact that Lin Tian did not fall down after this exaggerated performance was all thanks to Kidd's strong hand holding his wrist, which allowed Lin Tian to maintain his balance.

This would be unfair if we don't brag about it.

The referee had no choice but to blow the whistle. At the same time Kidd committed his sixth foul, Lin Tian was awarded three free throws.

Kidd originally wanted to protest, but when he raised his hand and wanted to yell at the referee, he found that Lin Tian's wrist was still in his hand.

He became honest, he became honest in an instant.

Anger and grievance turned into frustration in an instant. He covered his face with his clothes, then walked to the bench with great grievance and sat down.

As for whether Kidd behind the clothes was crying, Lin Tian didn't know and was too lazy to care.

Let him and Yao Ming warm each other up.

Lin Tian’s goal at this moment is to make the free throw!

After standing on the free throw line, Lin Tian took a deep breath, then quickly shot and made all three free throws!
Tied Cousy's record! Shared the first place in the NBA playoffs free throw shooting list!
At the same time, the gap between the two sides narrowed to 4 points!
107: 103!

Last 1 minute and 45 seconds.

The Nets' offense will have to play the next game without team leader Kidd, and they must maintain this 4-point advantage.

The one who took the responsibility at this time was naturally Carter! He waved his hand to signal everyone to move away, and then when facing Artest, he chose to charge again!
Considering the scale and the tempo of the game tonight, attacking the inside is the best option! Anyway, it is almost certain that we will be able to stand on the free throw line!
And then, sure enough!
Although Artest's defense this time was very clear, there was no movement of his hands, he did not try to steal the ball, and his footwork was also very clear.

But when Carter shot the ball, the referee blew the whistle.

Block the foul!

As for how to block and why to block, the referee doesn't have the time to explain and can't explain it. Anyway, Artest has 6 fouls, so go away!

Unexpectedly, Artest, who was called for his sixth foul, did not protest or feel unhappy. Instead, he directly hugged Lin Tian's shoulders and said, "Boss, I don't like him. Get him out of here."

"No problem! Look at me..." Lin Tian was about to pat his chest to show that there was no problem, and that he would definitely vent his anger on Artest, but then he thought something was wrong and looked at Artest and said, "How many fouls did Vince commit?"

"I forgot, it seems to be 3 times." Artest touched his chin, not sure of his answer.

"Get out of here now, and go sit down and play on the sidelines." Lin Tian kicked Artest on the butt in annoyance.

With less than 1 minute and 30 seconds left, he made Carter commit 3 fouls?
Even if that so-and-so and that so-and-so come, he can’t do it!

Do you really think that I, Master Lin, have practiced the Eighteen Falls of Touching Clothes?

Artest walked off the court with a smile on his face. No one knew what this guy with a mental disorder was thinking at the moment. All we could see was that he was very happy.

Carter stood at the free throw line. He was really happy to score points today. He had made 1 of 13 free throws before. After adjusting his breathing, he raised his hand and started shooting free throws.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Two consecutive muffled sounds were enough to make the entire Indiana treat Carter as one of their own again, but Carter actually missed both free throws!
There was even a series of cheers and calls at the scene.

"Vince, come back!"

“Indiana is your home!”

"We feel your sincerity, come back! We love you!"

"We will always be family!"

Lin Tian ignored these sinister fans. He was the first one to jump high and grab the backboard.

He knew very well that there was only one reason why Carter missed both free throws at this time.

Plot kill!

The author wants you to miss both free throws, so you, Carter, will not be able to make the shot today!
After looking at the time, Lin Tian dribbled the ball to the frontcourt leisurely this time. Then, facing the Nets players who were ready and extremely cautious, Lin Tian suddenly grinned and suddenly passed the ball!

A very long diagonal pass!
An ultra-long pass from the left wing directly to the right corner!
Standing there was Bonner, who made a crucial 3-pointer in the last game!

This guy was missed by the Nets again!

This is the aftermath of Kidd's absence. No one on the court calls out tactics, and no one reminds teammates to pay attention to defense and not miss anyone!
The Nets' defensive focus was on Lin Tian, ​​and they all stared at Lin Tian.

As for Bonner, he was simply missed.

If you miss someone, you will have to pay the price!

After Bonner got the ball, he just looked down to make sure he didn't step on the three-point line. Then the "Red Mamba" jumped up again and the three-pointer came out!

"Shh!"

For the second consecutive game, at the most critical moment of the second consecutive game, Bonner hit a fatal three-pointer!

Bonner's total score in this series is actually only 6 points!

If it’s not a crucial ball, I won’t score!

With these two goals, Bonner will definitely be able to join the team's rotation next season, taking over from Robert Horry and becoming the league's new generation of koi.

Excited Bonner raised his hands high, ran back to defense as fast as he could, and roared excitedly to celebrate.

Happy! Super happy!
The difference between the two sides is only 1 point!
1 minutes and 10 seconds!
The Nets' offense was once again handed over to Carter. This guy who just missed two free throws did not lose his composure. After dribbling to the frontcourt to face Christie, he once again chose to let his teammates move to one side, and then he accelerated and attacked!
This time Carter suddenly stopped in the mid-range, then turned around to create distance, seemingly about to make a signature turnaround jump shot. This time it was Christie's turn to fail to control his body and jumped towards Carter.

At this time, jumping means making a mistake!

"Snapped!"

Christie couldn't control her body and collided with Carter again!
"Dudu!"

The referee blew the whistle immediately!

If Artite's foul just now was a bit far-fetched, then Christie's foul is definitely fine!

Carter stood at the free throw line again.

Christie became the fourth player of the Pacers to be sent off.

In other words, now on the Pacers team, only Lin Tian is left as a starter, and the remaining four are all gone!

This shows how frequent the whistles were in this game and how cruelly the referee blew the whistles.

"Shh!"

Carter, who had just missed two free throws, finally seized the opportunity this time and made the free throw.

For the next ball, he took a deep breath, completely relaxed his body, and then kicked the ball steadily.

But the result was another muffled sound!
This time the rebound was caught by Bonner. After that, this guy crossed his arms and quickly called a timeout!
Carter, whose free throw percentage has been around 8% so far in his career, only made one of four consecutive free throws in the last two minutes!
Carter, who has made many key and buzzer-beating shots, has long proved himself to be a big-scene, big-hearted player. His performance tonight was also remarkable and definitely not bad.

But he was just wrong! He missed the free throw that was like giving away points!

106:108
In the last 50 seconds, the Pacers once again got a chance to overtake!
The plot is so similar to the previous game, and the situation is almost exactly the same as the previous game.

The Pacers lagged behind for a long time, but in the final moments, they successfully caught up with the score thanks to Lin Tian's madness and Bonner's 3-pointer.

So who wins tonight?
"Don't be in a hurry to score 3 points! There is plenty of time. The Nets are the ones who are in a hurry now. We just need to relax! Play whenever we have the chance. Don't be bound by any form! It doesn't matter if we can score 2 points or 3 points, as long as we can score points, the Nets will lose tonight!"

After Carlisle gathered everyone together, he first gave a speech to boost morale, and then quickly arranged a screen and running tactic for Lin Tian to receive the ball.

After arranging these, he looked up at Lin Tian and said, "The rest is up to you!"

"Rick, I find that you and Phil are becoming more and more alike." Lin Tian also looked at Carlisle and complained helplessly: "You are both equally lazy, so lazy that you don't even plan a tactic."

"Don't arrange tactics, just give the ball to the best players." Carlisle was not ashamed of it, but proud of it. He smiled and said, "Is there any better and more perfect tactic than this?"

“No more!” Lin Tian wiped his sweat with a towel again and stood up and said, “Give me the ball, that’s the best tactic!”

After saying that, Lin Tian led four substitute players, Bonner, Tabak, Howard and Parker, onto the court.

Last 50 seconds, 2 points behind!
"Dudu!"

As soon as the referee blew the whistle, the Pacers players immediately ran as Carlisle had just instructed. Lin Tian started from the bottom corner, ran all the way along the baseline to the bottom corner on the other side, then drew a right angle, turned and ran towards the wing again.

At the 45-degree angle on the left, he and Bonner set a screen, and then Lin Tian continued to run towards the center of the arc.

Here, after Lin Tian and Tabak performed an off-ball screen, he finally got a chance to catch the ball!

After getting the basketball, Lin Tian faced Carter who had finally pushed away Tabak's screen. He did not stop to observe, but directly dribbled towards Tabak again.

This guy who has joined the Pacers for many years but has always made little contribution also reacted quickly. He stood firm again and helped Lin Tian block Carter again.

Lin Tian's sudden counterattack made the entire Nets' defense line unable to react in time. In the blink of an eye, Lin Tian actually got a big open space outside the three-point line!

After Carter was blocked by Tabak, Lin Tian immediately took the ball and threw it from outside the three-point line!
"Shh!"

Then, there was a crisp sound that made the whole Indiana boil!
109: 108!

Overtaken!
Not only did Lin Tian score this goal, but he also did it in very little time.

All in all, including the time the ball was flying in the air, Lin Tian only needed 5 seconds to complete the attack!
There are only 45 seconds left in the game!
"MVP! MVP! MVP! MVP!"

"Lin! Lin! Lin! Lin! Lin!"

"Go! Lin Chong! We want to win the championship for the fifth time in a row!"

"Kill the Nets! Kill these bastards!"

"Sweep! Sweep! Sweep! Sweep!"

The fans cheered excitedly, they led for almost the entire game but fell behind at the last moment, Lin Tian scored easily with only two screens, Carter made 4 of 1 free throws, and the team lacked a true leader without Kidd...

These things combined became the cause of confusion and disorientation for the Nets players on the court.

Gasol passed the ball from the baseline to Harrington, but Harrington did not look for the defender first, but dribbled the ball forward himself.

Although he is very comprehensive, although he is known as a talented player who can play both inside and outside.

But that depends on who you meet!
Against 90% of the inside players in the league, Harrington's agility and dribbling abilities are both at an excellent level.

But when Harrington was advancing, he was facing the energetic Howard head-on, and Lin Tian, ​​the new best defensive player, was following him from the side. Harrington's advancing and dribbling abilities were basically useless.

"Snapped!"

Before he even crossed half court, the basketball was slapped away by Lin Tian.

This time the referee did not blow the whistle, and Howard reacted quickly. He dived to save the ball, grabbed the basketball before anyone else, and threw it to Lin Tian.

After Lin Tian got the ball, he didn't hesitate at all. While the entire Nets team couldn't react in time and Scott was still jumping up and down on the bench in anger, he had already dribbled the ball quickly to the Nets' basket and dunked again, expanding the lead to 3 points!
The Pacers, who were on the verge of losing just now, took the absolute initiative in the blink of an eye!
Given the current situation, as long as they don't do anything stupid, they will at least not lose in regular time!

Scott was so angry that his bald head was about to grow hair again. He suppressed his anger and called a timeout.

Then his rage exploded.

Well... he was holding it in just so that he could release his anger as much as he wanted once everyone got in front of him!
These idiots are really going to piss him off to death!

It was such a good situation, with a 2-point lead in the last 7 minutes!

The Pacers unexpectedly launched another offensive climax!
What about Carter making only 4 of 1 free throws, and Harrington trying to dribble through the double-team defense of Lin Tian and Howard without any strategy.

Scott was really furious at this moment.

But he was so angry that he couldn't say anything except throwing the tactical board.

"You...you...you guys...FUXX!"

Scott was really angry and couldn't speak!
"Next round, we have to score! It doesn't have to be 3 points, but it has to be fast!"

Seeing that Scott was already talking incoherently, Kidd came over as expected and said to everyone: "Vince, don't lose confidence, you are still the most lethal weapon among us, and everyone can miss the ball at the critical moment!"

"Michael Jordan missed key free throws several times when he was playing against you! This is normal! The important thing is that you can't give up hope or lose confidence!"

"The next round will be Vince's singles match again!"

"Whether you want to get a foul or shoot a 3-pointer, it's up to you! I believe in you, and I believe everyone else believes in you too!"

After Kidd finished speaking, he patted Carter's shoulder vigorously to express his trust.

At this time, Scott finally breathed a sigh of relief. He also looked at Carter and said, "Jason is right! I believe you too!"

Then he looked at Kidd again and truly said, "Thank you."

Scott knew that as the head coach, he had been very negligent in his duty just now!
The head coach must always be the calmest and most rational person on the team, especially when the team is in desperate situation.

But he just lost his composure, and almost failed to arrange tactics during the timeout because of this.

If the team loses because of this, Scott will really become a joke.

But fortunately, he still has Kidd.

In any case, the morale of the Nets, especially Carter's confidence, finally recovered a lot.

Nets, there is still a chance!

With 35 seconds left, the team was trailing by 3 points.

The timeout is over and the game continues!
After a series of running and screens, Carter successfully received the basketball 3 meters away from the three-point line. This time, he was facing Lin Tian!
"Come on, Lin!" Carter hugged the basketball and looked at Lin Tian and said, "This time, I won't lose again!"

"You've said this line many times." Lin Tian also lowered his center of gravity, raised his hands, and looked at Carter: "I sincerely hope that you can do it even once!"

Because the Nets were behind in the score, Carter did not push the time too hard. He just waited at the top of the arc for 3 seconds, and after his teammates had all moved away, he immediately launched an attack!

He started the breakthrough with a crossover dribble and chose to dribble from the left side.

But Lin Tian knew that this guy was a standard right-handed player, so he didn't follow him too closely. He was guarding against Carter's follow-up moves.

Sure enough, after taking only one step forward, Carter immediately dribbled the ball behind his back and the basketball came to his right hand.

Then Carter blasted the ball with great force on the spot, and then suddenly accelerated!
He must use his pace and physical advantages to rush past Lin Tian!

"Your trick has no effect on me!"

Lin Tian had long seen through Carter's offensive tactics. The two had played together for four years, and Lin Tian knew him very well!

"Have you not practiced even one new move in the past two years?"

Lin Tian blocked Carter's attack without stopping, interfering with Carter's attack both physically and mentally.

At this moment, Carter had changed to dribbling with his back to the basket. After blocking Lin Tian with his back to protect the ball, this guy suddenly said, "I'll show you my new trick!"

After Carter finished speaking, he suddenly dribbled the ball with his left hand, turned around and tried to break through again, but in the blink of an eye he changed to dribbling with his right hand and turned around again in the opposite direction.

Then Carter suddenly exerted force with his shoulders and hit Lin Tian hard. He used the feedback force to quickly step back and retreat outside the three-point line, and then jumped up to take a three-point shot!
But what Carter never expected was that Lin Tian actually caught up with him this time!

Lin Tian, ​​who was hit by Carter's full force, did not slow down at all because of the confrontation. He rushed to Carter quickly and jumped up to interfere!
Because of Lin Tian's unexpected defensive speed, Carter had to increase the arc and angle of his shot to avoid being blocked.

But in this way, the three-point shot that was originally a sure thing immediately becomes a matter of luck.

Carter, who just made 4 of 1 free throws, obviously didn't have good luck!
"Boom!"

After another muffled sound, the basketball bounced out of the basket. Bonner slapped the ball to Lin Tian before Gasol could. After Lin Tian hugged the basketball, he looked at Carter: "Do you know what your biggest problem in basketball is, Vince? Do you know why you are always inferior to Kobe and Iverson?"

“You play basketball so well!”

When Bonner grabbed the rebound, there were still 29 seconds left in the game!
This means that the Pacers can still use up a full 24 seconds, and as long as the Nets can defend this attack, they will still have a chance to tie the game!

This is truly the last chance!

Of course, the Nets can also choose to foul early, send Lin Tian to the free throw line, and then proceed with the subsequent operations.

The reason why Lin Tian did not rush forward after receiving Bonner's pass was that he was observing and waiting.

He saw Parker rushing to the frontcourt, and he also saw Harris chasing him relentlessly without giving Parker a chance to directly receive the ball and attack the basket. He also saw that no one from the Nets was running towards him to prepare for a foul, otherwise Lin Tian would have started running wildly to avoid those tactical fouls and waste as much time as possible!

But now it seems that the Nets obviously chose to use conventional defense to block the Pacers' offense this time, and then fight for themselves a last chance to tie the game.

Seeing that the Nets did not commit a foul, Lin Tian also began to advance slowly.

"Do you understand what I mean, Vince?"

Seeing that Carter, who was defending him, was silent, Lin Tian simply continued, "You play too much for the sake of looking good and being flashy. This can help you gain a lot of fans and become an All-Star starter for consecutive years, but it can't help you become stronger."

"For example, your so-called new trick just now."

As Lin Tian spoke, he suddenly started the attack!

He did the same thing, suddenly making a crossover dribble to the left, then after one more dribble, he dribbled behind his back and sprinted towards the inside with his right hand.

But Lin Tian still did not speed up, but once again dribbled with his back to the basket and held Carter with his back.

"The beginning of this move is familiar, right?" After Lin Tian used his back to hold Carter back, he continued to attack his self-confidence: "But what comes next is different!"

"You have too many moves. They look fancy, but they have no practical effect at all. Instead, they will give your opponent, who has been shaken off by you, a chance to catch up with you again!"

"You've played basketball for so many years, don't you know that the most important thing about dribbling past an opponent is to be quick, accurate and ruthless, rather than flashy and fancy? If flashy and fancy were useful, those basketball greats would have entered the NBA and become All-Stars long ago!"

As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, he dribbled the ball with his left hand and turned half a turn, but the difference between him and Carter was that after turning half a turn, Lin Tian used his shoulder to push Carter away, and at the same time jumped back with a big step, also retreated outside the three-point line, and then raised his hand to shoot.

Lin Tian's move this time was faster, more concise, and had a greater amplitude!

But Carter was obviously prepared. Lin Tian had just said so much, and based on his understanding of Lin Tian, ​​he had already guessed that Lin Tian was going to replicate his action just now, so Carter was already prepared to pounce forward when Lin Tian turned around!
Now seeing that Lin Tian was dribbling the ball with a step back, he immediately became delighted and rushed towards Lin Tian!
He even has the trash talk ready!
"You are more concise and faster than me, but what's the use?"

Then, Carter's eyes widened in disbelief.

Lin Tian didn't even collect the ball! He just pretended to worship Buddha!
After Carter jumped up, Lin Tian turned around and dribbled to create space again. Then he jumped up slowly one step inside the three-point line and completed the shot!
"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, the Pacers gained a 17-point advantage in the last 5 seconds!

The overall situation has been determined! (End of this chapter)
