NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

"Kill the game!" Barkley, wearing a Nets jersey, excitedly tore off his jersey, as if the Nets had won: "Lin killed the game again! Ended the suspense!"

"With 17 seconds left, the team was trailing by 5 points! No timeouts! I can declare the Pacers have won in advance! Lin's shot this time was so cool! So gorgeous! This is why we love Lin! While he has top-notch skills, his style of play can make everyone fall in love with him instantly!"

"Is there any more entertaining and cooler style of play in the league today?"

"Maybe! But he's definitely not as strong as Lin! He's just handsome and good at fighting!"

After the goal went in, Lin Tian looked at Carter and suddenly let out a sly smile: "Okay, what I just said is all nonsense. If you can't play basketball cool and fancy, then what's the point of playing basketball! I play basketball all my life just to look cool and fancy!"

Carter: I cry and tell you that fairy tales are all lies!

Lin Tian's worship of Buddha and the two completely contradictory sentences really made Carter's CPU burn out.

shameless!
This was the first thought that came to Carter's mind at this moment.

"But Vince, seriously, you'd better not learn from me. Your fancy moves are really useless. Simplify your unnecessary technical moves and make them simpler and more direct. It will definitely make you better!"

"What about you? Why don't you be simple and direct so that you can become stronger?" Carter couldn't help it anymore and asked a soul-searching question.

"It doesn't matter what happens to me, but if you don't catch the ball now, you're about to commit a five-second violation! Unless you plan to give up the game?"

"FUXX!" Carter cursed again, then turned quickly and rushed towards the backcourt baseline.

Just as Lin Tian said, Carter has no intention of giving up!

17 seconds, the game situation is not as desperate as Barkley said.

The Nets still have a chance!

They just need to make a three-pointer first, then successfully steal the ball while defending or commit a foul and send the Pacers players to the free throw line, praying that they miss at least one, and then make another one!
Very simple, the plan works!
For example, what Carter is doing now is the first step of this matter. He takes the ball in the backcourt, advances quickly, kills to the frontcourt, and forces a 3-point shot with two steps outside the 3-point line!
"Boom!"

Then, another muffled sound was heard!
Carter is iron again.

The reversal plan went bankrupt before it even started.

This irony has completely sealed the Nets' chances of winning tonight. At the same time, with a 0:3 deficit, the Nets are basically confirmed to be eliminated.

0:3 reversal of the Pacers?
The referees have played so hard in these two games. If you don’t win, how can you play next?
The referee has no shame at all and just makes the call and calls the game 8 against 5?

If the Nets had just lost the decisive game and the two teams were playing for a sixth game, Stern might have been shameless in order to push the series into a seventh game.

But if this is the case now.

forget it!
0：3的局，给你硬生生吹到1：3又能咋样，还能连着吹你3场给你吹到抢七？
Why is your Nets team so arrogant?

It's not like you can summon a dragon when the seventh game comes around to help you summon any of the team's historical top stars.

If you can really summon, then Stern... still can't help.

The Nets are a lousy team whose ancestors were very poor. At most, they can summon some ordinary stars like Buck Williams, but there is still no gimmick at all.

If you really want to find the top names in the Nets’ history, you’ve got to go to the ABA Nets.

It would be interesting if we could just summon a big guy like 'Dr. J' Irving.

But what about the current situation?
It’s better to wash up and sleep!

Stern said: Let the series end quickly, I'm tired and don't want to watch it anymore!

In the subsequent games, Tabak protected the rebounds and then passed the ball to Lin Tian as soon as possible.

To be honest, Lin Tian stood there, waiting for the Nets players to commit fouls.

But unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, no one came!
Just give up!
This giving up really made Lin Tian feel a little disappointed for a while.

If he makes one more free throw, he will surpass Cousy and become the one-point rain king with the most free throws in a single game in NBA playoff history.

But now, I'm stuck at 30 free throws in a single game. I have to share the record with the old man. It's uncomfortable, very uncomfortable.

How to describe this feeling?
I said I couldn’t get in by rubbing my way in, and it turned out that I really couldn’t get in by rubbing my way in!

No, I have to find someone to have fun with.

So, when the whistle sounded at the end of the game and the Pacers officially got the match point, Lin Tian went straight to Carter!

"Vince, do you still want to hear the answer to that question?"

"The answer?" Carter was stunned for a moment, then remembered the question he had just asked. Although he instinctively felt that Lin Tian was definitely up to no good, this guy was not as thick-skinned as Kidd after all, so he nodded, indicating that he was willing to hear the details.

"Let's talk about why I don't make my playing style simpler, more practical and more efficient so that I can become stronger." Lin Tian blinked his big eyes and looked at Carter and said, "Because I'm already strong, I don't need to be stronger."

"So I call it gorgeous, unrestrained, freehand, casual and creative. To put it more elegantly, I call it unconstrained, treacherous, mysterious, unpredictable, and heaven... Hey, Vince, where are you going? I haven't finished what I'm saying yet."

"I am……"

What a pity, Carter didn't want to listen to Lin Tian's nonsense anymore, so he turned around and left.

If Carter was not defeated, he really wanted to hang Lin Tian up and beat him up to vent his anger.

My frequent dribbling and many moves are just useless and flashy. What's so fanciful about you?
Why!

Just because you are better than me?

Okay, you are better than me, but...

Carter thought about it for a long time, but couldn't find anything to complain about.

Scum!

In the end, Carter could only silently swear in his heart and then walked directly into the player tunnel.

His mood tonight was absolutely terrible.

Even Lin Tian's previous act of looking for trouble actually made him feel a little more relaxed.

Because the Nets actually lost to Carter himself tonight!

He missed the shot, missed the free throw, and couldn't defend Lin Tian.

In the last 2 minutes tonight, after Kidd went down, Carter was given the highest tactical autonomy, unlimited firing rights, and the opportunity to face off against Lin Tian.

But his performance was really terrible!
It was precisely because of his poor performance that the Pacers found the opportunity and completed the reversal!

It would be no exaggeration to say that Carter put on the No. 15 Pacers jersey again tonight!
He can definitely be regarded as the second biggest contributor to the Pacers' victory tonight!
As for number one, it is of course Lin Tian!

今晚的林天，21投12中，其中3分球8投5中，罚球35罚30中，疯狂的轰下了59分14篮板9助攻的大号准三双！

His free throws tonight also broke many historical records that had been dormant for decades.

At the same time, tonight's game broke another record.

This game without overtime lasted a full 3 hours and 43 minutes!

It lasted a full hour longer than the usual games!
This time also became a new historical record of the NBA!
Among all the games that did not go into overtime, no game lasted longer than this one!
In addition, both teams went to the free throw line a total of 109 times tonight and made 81 of them!
These two numbers are also new highs in NBA history!

Rather than saying it was a divisional final tonight, it would be more like a free throw battle between the two sides!

In addition, if after this season ends, the NBA votes for the worst game in history, the ugliest game, the most boring 50+, the most boring game, etc.

In tonight's game, he will definitely be elected with a high vote! He is also likely to become the GOAT in this area!

But fortunately, this extremely long night is finally over!

However, what Lin Tian didn't expect was that when he arrived at the press conference, the reporters were not interested in things like single-game free throw records, longest time spent in a single game, and consecutive scores to kill the game!
The first question from the reporters made Lin Tian want to throw the microphone at his head.

"Lin, this game took so long that you couldn't get home in time to watch Desperate Housewives. Will Eva be angry?"

Good guy! Lin Tian said directly Good guy!
This question is asked in a steady manner!

In a word, there are at least three traps buried in it!
I didn't go back to watch TV, why should the actor be so angry?
The next question is, if Eva gets angry, what am I, Mr. Lin, going to do?

What can I do?
It's out of reach, what can I, Mr. Lin, do?
Lin Tian didn't want to answer the reporter's inexplicable bullshit scandal, and the press officer on the scene saw through it immediately!

After all, this guy is one of us, and he immediately said directly, "Lin will not answer any questions related to Desperate Housewives!"

However, Lin Tian and the press officer overlooked two things!
1. This series is so boring that the reporters have nothing good to write about.

2. When journalists have nothing to write about, their moral integrity is lower than the Mariana Trench.

As expected, the next morning, the "new scandal" between Lin Tian and his "rumored girlfriend" whom he had never met and had never had any contact with, once again swept across the United States!
"The relationship is in turmoil again, and the prodigal son has not turned back!"

"The relationship between the golden boy and the beautiful girl has changed? The reason seems to be because of her! "

"Is she or him?! Why is it withering before it blooms?"

"Who is Lin's Mr. Right? Count the top 10 single female stars in the United States who could become Lin's partner!"

"Lin said frankly that he didn't want to see Eva again in this life! Why was there such a huge difference in just three days?"

"The love and affection of the past has become a thing of the past. Only when the fog clears can we know its unbearable nature!"

……

In short, it was another day that had nothing to do with the sports section, but Lin Tian inexplicably dominated the entertainment section.

But this time, at least the girls won't call Lin Tian to blame him. Under the current circumstances, even if Lin Tian really had an affair with Eva, isn't that a thing of the past?
good news!
Well... I can even give Lin Tian some rewards.

This time, Lin Tian really felt wronged, and he explained a lot, saying that he really didn't know Eva, had never met her, and had no improper thoughts about her.

At this time, the girls showed amazing tacit understanding: Hey, why are you talking about that! It's the past tense, we don't care! What's wrong with admitting it, isn't it just a girl, understand! We all understand!

How could a beautiful girl who had contact with Mr. Lin slip through the net? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Lin Tian: What the hell! Is Mr. Lin that kind of person? Well, it seems like he is!
But this time, Lin Tian is really innocent!

Suddenly, Lin Tian remembered the Shaolin Temple more than a thousand years ago... On that day, an emperor named Duan had fallen into the same dilemma as himself.

It's not him, but everyone believes it's him!
Even on that day, if the real culprit could hold out for half a cup of tea at most, Emperor Duan would have admitted it himself!

He admitted it, and the matter was settled. No matter what evidence the Khitan man on the opposite side produced, even if he took out a strand of hair and conducted a DNA test spanning thousands of years, no one would believe him. A catastrophe in the martial arts world could be eliminated without a trace!
This is the power of word of mouth!
Who says a scumbag can’t save the martial arts world and the world?
After all, it’s because of poor mental quality!

such a pity!
However, after two consecutive games, when the media stopped reporting on the games themselves and instead reported on these gossips, everyone knew that the suspense of this series was basically over.

As long as there is a little suspense in the game, reporters should not be so shameless as to report these things to attract attention.

And when Lin Tian scored 50 points and led the team to a comeback but still couldn't catch the fans' attention, and had to rely on gossip to save attention, the league also knew that this round of the series should be over!

The fourth game of the series became the final game of the divisional finals as expected.

That night, the Pacers, led by Lin Tian, ​​dominated the game almost the entire time. The Nets' inside players were able to score, Carter was able to score continuously, and even Kidd had a great performance, making 4 3-pointers that night.

But it's all in vain!

Facing the Pacers who were already leading 3:0, there was a huge difference in mentality and confidence between the two players!

The Pacers players, with unparalleled self-confidence, put on their craziest and most exciting performance of this series tonight!
That night, Lin Tian scored 31 points, 13 rebounds and 20 assists!

This is the first time he has reached 20 assists in the playoffs this season!
And when Lin Tian's assists reached 20 times, you could tell without even looking how gorgeous the Pacers' offense was and how high their shooting percentage was!
What a crazy night!
米勒拿下14分10篮板7助攻，哈斯勒姆12分9篮板2盖帽，阿泰斯特21分5篮板3抢断，克里斯蒂17分3篮板4助攻，首发五人得分全部上双！
At the same time, Parker, who stood up from the bench, scored 13 points and Howard 10 points!
Seven players of the Pacers scored in double digits, and they defeated the Nets with a score of 7:131, easily advancing to the finals!
And on this night, during the division championship award ceremony which had no practical significance, Lin Tian took the microphone and said only one sentence, which drove the entire Indiana crazy.

"I said, we have survived the toughest game and the strongest opponent."

"Next, it's about winning the championship!"

"Champion! Champion! Champion! Champion!"

"We must win! We must win! We must win!"

"MVP! MVP! MVP!"

"We are the first dynasty in history!"

"We are the strongest in history!"

"second to none!"

With the fans' crazy cheers, the Eastern Conference Finals officially came to an end!

The Pacers are in no hurry to fly to the West to start their finals because the Lakers and Timberwolves have not yet decided the winner!
In other words, the two teams haven't finished fighting yet! They still have to keep fighting!
This year's Timberwolves and Lakers are definitely top teams at the same level, and the matchup between the two teams is also exciting!
At least compared to the unsuspenseful series in the East, which could only rely on irrelevant gossip to attract fans' attention, both sides here really tried their best!
In the first game of the series, Iverson, who had just arrived in the West, showed his firepower. He scored 48 points in the game, including 30 points in the first half and 7 points in overtime. His score in overtime was equal to the score of the entire Lakers team!

Under Iverson's madness, the Lakers lost the first home game and got off to a bad start!

In this game, in addition to Iverson's explosive output, Garnett scored his signature stats of 20 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks. Sprewell and Cassell also scored 13 points and 15 points respectively. The Timberwolves' four kings took the lead in attacking!
On the Lakers side, although O'Neal scored a big double-double of 44 points and 22 rebounds, his teammates performed poorly as a whole tonight, and the Lakers had to regretfully suffer a defeat.

But in the second game that followed, the Lakers regrouped and obviously adjusted the problem of over-reliance on shooting in the previous game, and kept attacking the Timberwolves' inside line and positions.

That night, Kobe continued to attack the inside despite Garnett's defense, and finally managed to get 16 free throws, scoring 34 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists.

另外奥尼尔也拿到了19次罚球，虽然他只罚中了其中的12个，但不妨碍他继续拿下31分21个篮板5次盖帽的巨兽级数据。

With the OK combination exploding at the same time and Garnett and Nesterovic of the Timberwolves being fouled out one after another, the Lakers finally managed to get through the danger at home and won a difficult victory.

But the consumption of energy by both sides in this game was no less than the previous one. Although there was no overtime, Kobe and O'Neal both played for more than 45 minutes, while Iverson and Sprewell on the opposite side played the full 48 minutes!

This is definitely a top-level showdown with blood on the bayonet and the intensity of offense and defense at full force!
Then a day later, the two sides moved to Minnesota. In this G3 battle known as the "Little King Mountain", both sides once again presented a famous playoff scene. After the game, this game was called the top three exciting super showdowns in this season's playoffs!
That night, the two sides once again fought until the last moment.

In the last 13 seconds of the regular season, Iverson broke through and made a layup to help the team tie the score. After that, Kobe's mid-range buzzer-beater missed, and the two sides entered the first overtime!

In the first overtime, the scores of both teams were still close. Thanks to Sprewell's two free throws 8 seconds before the end of overtime, the Timberwolves got a 2-point advantage!

This time, Kobe used almost the same method as he had just shot before the end of regular time, shooting a fadeaway jump shot against Garnett and Sprewell.

"Shh!"

This time, Kobe did not disappoint the people of Los Angeles!
Both sides entered the second overtime with the same score!
The second overtime became O'Neal's show for a while. The big man scored 9 points in a row, including free throws, and gave the Lakers a 7-point lead.

But at this time, the Timberwolves' All-Star shooter Szczerbiak suddenly stood up, and after making two consecutive 3-pointers from the left and the right, with 30 seconds left in overtime, he helped the team narrow the gap between the two sides to only 1 point!
The Lakers' final attack was once again given to the devastating O'Neal, who did not disappoint his teammates. With 7 seconds left in the game, he successfully scored a small jump hook and expanded the lead to 3 points!
This time, it was the old monster Cassell who stood up for the Timberwolves. This alien faced Fisher's defense, received the ball outside the 3-point line and shot, once again hitting the tying point!
Both sides entered the third overtime!

In the third overtime, the players on both sides were obviously exhausted. From top to bottom, from the core players to the supporting roles, both sides felt as if their legs were filled with lead and they could hardly run.

In the first three minutes of overtime, the two sides had only scored three points in total.

The Timberwolves made a jump shot, the Lakers made 2 of 1 free throws, and all the rest of the shots were missed by both teams!

Jackson, who was bolder and more willing to use players, took the lead in making adjustments. At this time, he brought on Kareem Rush, who had not played since he went off to rest at the beginning of the fourth quarter and had played for only 10 minutes and scored 2 points tonight.

This small character, who couldn't be any smaller, saved the team that night!
Well, of course, he just relied on his good physical strength. When the Timberwolves missed two shots in a row and the Lakers grabbed the rebound, he ran down frantically, using his abundant physical strength and fast speed to score two consecutive fast break points for the Lakers!

These two fast break dunks were the only points scored by both teams in the final stage of the game!
The Lakers relied on two dunks from a small player to win the third game of the series with great difficulty and regain the home-court advantage in the series!

That night, Kobe, Iverson and Garnett all played 60 minutes.

O'Neal, Garnett and Sprewell all played more than 55 minutes.

In addition, the playing time of Kirilenko, Cassell and others also exceeded 50 minutes!

This night was definitely an extremely difficult and tiring night for both sides. When returning home or to the hotel, the main players of both sides would definitely not go looking for any fun, but would 100% lie down on the bed and fall asleep in one second!
The fourth game of the series was almost a replica of the first three games. Both sides fought throughout the entire court and finally went into overtime. This time, it was Garnett who made the contribution. He scored a career-high 35 points in the playoffs that night!
He scored 7 points in overtime!
Relying on his crucial 7 points and career-high, the Timberwolves tied the score with great difficulty after an overtime!

The score between the two sides became 2:2!

At this point, the series turned into a best-of-three battle royale!

Both sides are now on the edge of the cliff. Let's see who can push the opponent into the cliff and make themselves safe temporarily.

The battle of Tianwang Mountain is a battle that neither side can afford to lose!
In this game, both sides chose to start with defense!
Even players like Iverson and Fisher who were not good at defense on both teams put all their energy into defense. Even if they didn't score a goal, they would never let their opponents score a goal!

And because this game is so difficult and important, the head coaches of both teams once again simultaneously shortened their rotations, reduced the number of players on the field, and significantly reduced the playing time of the rotation players.

The Timberwolves basically had five starters plus Szczerbiak's six-man rotation lineup, and although the Lakers on the opposite side had eight players on the court, the combined playing time of the three substitutes was not as much as Szczerbiak alone.

In this ultimate main force showdown and life-and-death battle, 10 out of the 8 starters of both sides played for more than 43 minutes, and 4 played the entire game!
Kobe and O'Neal of the Lakers, Iverson and Garnett of the Timberwolves.

In the end, this game turned into the ultimate showdown of willpower and absolute fighting spirit!

Both teams tried their best!
The suspense of this game naturally continued until the last moment of the game.

The Lakers maintained a 3-5 point lead. The Timberwolves launched several charges to try to reverse the score, but every time the Lakers responded in their own way. Every time, the Lakers responded to the Timberwolves' charge.

The last few dozen seconds of the game turned into a penalty shootout. The Lakers players were sent to the free throw line again and again, and the Timberwolves used the remaining time to complete attacks and score again and again.

In this almost brutal and extreme confrontation, the Lakers finally relied on Kobe's stable performance of making 50 free throws in the last 8 seconds to successfully win this decisive battle!

At the same time, coincidentally, after the game, the main players of the Lakers and Timberwolves were absent from the post-match press conference.

As for the reason, the coaches of both sides did not say, but they both expressed their willingness to accept the league's fine.

According to people familiar with the matter, several starting players from both teams were receiving treatment in their respective locker rooms, and several were given glucose to quickly restore their completely drained physical strength.

Kobe, O'Neal, Iverson, Garnett and others did not show up from the end of this game to the start of the next game, and all hid themselves.

They are really too tired.

It is worth mentioning that the Pacers had just advanced to the finals at the same time.

The whole team watched the game together, and they all expressed their feelings that the game was exciting and exhausting. Finally, in order to relieve the tension in the players, Carlisle took the initiative to pay for the meal, which was rare, and took everyone out to relax.

The sixth game of the series once again became an overtime battle!
By this time, both sides that had moved to Minnesota had run out of ammunition and food. They had no trump cards, no hidden tactics, and no secrets.

To put it in terms of the battlefield, the planes, artillery, missiles, tanks and aircraft carriers on both sides have all been exhausted, and even individual equipment such as bullets and grenades have been used up.

All that's left are fists, teeth, and at most a few empty guns and rolled daggers.

This is what both sides have to face tonight!
A real hand-to-hand fight, a real fight with fists hitting flesh and feet drawing blood!

Then, in this game, both sides directly created a historical record!
In the NBA regular season, there was one six-overtime game and three five-overtime games, but in the playoffs, the record for the most overtimes in a single game is three! Although it has happened many times, there has never been even one four-overtime game.

But tonight, it showed up!
The Timberwolves and the Lakers played until the fourth overtime before the winner was finally decided!
In the third overtime, players on both sides were obviously exhausted and their legs were weak. Veteran Cassell and rookie Prince both suffered cramps during this period and were replaced.

A set of the most intuitive data can show how tired both sides were in overtime.

In the first overtime, the score was 7:7, and in the second overtime, it was 4:4, without a single goal in open play.

In the third overtime, both teams scored 0 points, and no team could get even 1 point! In this overtime, the free throws of both teams totaled 8 and 0!
All iron!

Everyone really couldn't hold on any longer. The game had become a nightmare for the players!

And in the fourth overtime, someone finally broke the deadlock.

Allen Iverson!
This little guy burst out with strength from nowhere in the fourth overtime and made two consecutive breakthrough layups!
These two layups were the only points scored by both teams in the fourth overtime!
4: 0!

Thanks to Iverson's two scores, the Timberwolves finally caught a breath at home and successfully dragged the series into a decisive seventh game!
But the players on both sides were really exhausted.

Iverson played 64 minutes tonight, Garnett 60 minutes, Sprewell 62 minutes, O'Neal 60 minutes, Kirilenko 63 minutes, and Kobe 65 minutes!

A total of 6 players from both teams played for more than 60 minutes, which once again set a new record in NBA history!

Four overtimes and six players playing more than 6 minutes in a single game, it can be seen how much consumption and fatigue both sides suffered in this duel, and how fiercely they fought!
At this time, Indiana...

"I finally made it to the finals a week early, can't I enjoy myself now?"

"Keep playing music! Keep dancing!"

Lin Tian raised the cup in his hand and shouted to the whole team: "Tonight is the last celebration. Starting tomorrow, we will resume our high-intensity training!" (End of this chapter)
