NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Marbury finally got carried away.

Lin Tian's words "rookie" and "he is far inferior to Iverson" made Marbury's heart collapse.

Before this moment, Marbury had been following the instructions of Duncan, Rivers and others, restraining his temper and desire to fight alone. He suppressed his desires because he knew very well: if he wanted to win, he had to listen to them.

In fact, if Marbury still wants to get a big contract in the offseason and continue to stay in the league, he must do so.

Otherwise, given his current reputation, he might have to leave the league after this contract ends.

But now, all the repression and compromises made for survival collapsed under Lin Tian's words "not as good as Iverson".

Damn it, I’ll beat you to death!

Marbury's eyes were filled with hatred, he wanted to prove it!

He wants to prove that he is no worse than Iverson!

Maybe I'm not as good as you, Lin Tian, ​​but I can't be worse than Iverson!
I want to prove myself.

Marbury kept dribbling the ball while thinking in his mind.

This time he ignored Duncan's requests for the ball in the low post and Pierce's constant requests for the ball near the mid-range.

Instead, he drew several circles on his head with his hands.

This was his favorite thing to do in the first half of his career, and it was also something he almost completely gave up after suppressing his offensive desire this season.

"Pull aside, I want to play one-on-one."

Regardless of the requests of everyone on the team, Marbury decisively called for an isolation tactic.

Even Rivers, who was off the court, immediately stood up from the bench in confusion after seeing this tactical gesture, and spread his hands to indicate that he didn't understand why you did this.

Even though Pierce and Duncan continued to reach for the ball, Marbury refused to pass it and signaled everyone to move away from him.

"That's great, Stephen! You're really admirable! At least you're still a man, and you still have the fighting spirit!"

"Next, we'll see if you have the ability to match it. If you only have a little fighting spirit but no strength, then you're still a rookie! At best, you're just a rookie with fighting spirit!"

Seeing that Marbury neither passed the ball nor moved, Pierce and Duncan had no choice but to quickly move to both sides, giving him enough offensive space and respect.

But when Duncan left the inside, he did not forget to make a gesture to Howard.

“Always be ready to rebound!”

He was already preparing to grab the offensive rebound.

At this time, he couldn't even explain his feelings clearly.

He wasn't sure whether he wanted Marbury to score or miss.

But what happened next proved that Duncan was overthinking.

He is too optimistic.

Goal? Missed shot?
Think more!
Seeing that all his teammates had moved away, Marbury immediately showed off his dribbling and rhythm at the top of the arc. The basketball kept changing positions between his hands, and he kept changing directions, looking for a real opportunity to dribble through.

Suddenly, Marbury dribbled the ball between his legs with obviously more force than before, moving the basketball from his left hand to his right hand. Then, his entire upper body shifted to the right, but he suddenly changed direction with an extremely fast speed, although the amplitude was not large.

The basketball and Marbury's body moved almost at the same time, rushing to the left at the same time. His famous speed exploded instantly, and the whole person rushed to the inside. At the same time, his left hand was propped up to block Lin Tian's body, preventing him from coming forward to press and defend closely.

After reaching the mid-range area, Marbury's ball protector suddenly exerted force to push Lin Tian, ​​then suddenly took a step back, then directly received the ball, and jumped up to take a mid-range jump shot!

His entire movement was done in one go, looking cool and handsome, and he is worthy of being one of the most outstanding offensive No. 96 players of the 1 generation.

Marbury used all his skills in this move!
He had enough confidence that he could make this shot, and he believed that Lin Tian could not catch up with him!

But unfortunately, he trusted the wrong person!
Why not trust anyone else? When facing Lin Tian, ​​did Marbury trust himself?
Lin Tian took a step forward and jumped almost at the same time as Marbury!

His long arms covered the sky and shot towards the shot that Marbury had just taken.

"Snapped!"

With an extremely crisp sound, Lin Tian slapped Marbury's shot away.

Jackson grabbed the basketball which was nearby. Jackson originally wanted to launch a counterattack directly, but Pierce had already appeared in front of him, blocking his dribbling route and preventing him from launching a counterattack.

Obviously, Pierce was not as optimistic as Duncan. While Duncan was waiting for the rebound, Pierce had already chosen to block the Knicks' fast break!
"ball!"

Just when Jackson decided to prioritize ensuring no mistakes, Lin Tian's shout came from beside him. Jackson didn't hesitate and quickly passed the ball to Lin Tian on the left. After Lin Tian got the basketball, his speed immediately exploded and rushed to the frontcourt!
The Celtics' defense was still fast and accurate. Everyone quickly entered their respective defensive positions and found their opponents. Howard relied on his physical talent to get to the basket early and turn around to defend.

In other words, he wanted to turn around and defend.

However, just as he was running quickly to the basket and wanted to turn around, he suddenly felt someone turned off the lights.

His world went dark almost immediately.

"Oh!"

After a dull thud, Howard was struck by lightning and completely lost control of his body. The huge impact force made it impossible for him to stand still. He lost his balance and flew towards the baseline.

"boom!"

Then there was an earth-shattering explosion!

Lin Tian, ​​who was advancing with the ball, knocked over Howard, grabbed the basket with both hands, and completed a powerful slam dunk!
"Oh oh oh!" Barkley exclaimed immediately: "The first round of the fourth quarter! It turned out to be like this!"

"Lin's volleyball blood block and slam dunk! In one round, Lin killed two absolute main players of the Knicks!"

"Although it's only 2 points, this is definitely a huge blow to the Celtics' morale!"

Kenny continued, "Especially, in that round just now, Marbury ignored his teammates and coaches and insisted on fighting Lin Tian one-on-one, so this situation happened. This is a huge blow to the Celtics' discipline and integrity!"

Kenny and Barkley said less than one word, that is, in addition to what they said, this ball also dealt a huge blow to Marbury's self-confidence!

But obviously, for Lin Tian, ​​just inflicting a heavy blow on Marbury was not enough, and just one round of attack was even less than enough.

To fight this kind of thing, you have to attack it round by round without stopping or interrupting!
If you beat someone, you must beat them to death.

"Stephen, you really are a rookie! The kind that is not worth mentioning."

"I was wrong just now. If you were a little more timid and soft, if you performed worse and didn't take the initiative to attack, then you might still have a chance to win the game. If you continue to play like this, you will definitely lose!"

"Out of respect for the Celtics, I'm giving you a very kind reminder: Don't play one-on-one, wait for an open 3-pointer, and you'll have completed your mission."

"Shut up!"

As I said: There’s nothing wrong with swearing, but the truth can really break people’s defenses.

Marbury has completely lost his mind at this moment.

I want to prove myself.

The pain of being completely suppressed by Lin Tian during this entire series, the compromises he made for survival throughout this season, and all the pride in his life burst out at the same time at this moment.

Then Marbury dribbled to the frontcourt, and with the last of his sanity, he patted his head, signaling Duncan to come up and cover for him.

At least this guy knows how to cover up.

Duncan sighed, then quickly stepped forward. For the sake of victory and the team, Duncan still covered Marbury. "Bang!"

There is absolutely no doubt about the quality of Duncan's screen. Even Lin Tian could not squeeze directly in front of the screen as he did in the past, but collided heavily with Duncan.

Marbury seized this rare opportunity and rushed towards the inside.

But no matter how good Duncan's screen is, there is only so much he can do.

Lin Tian’s speed is really too fast!

Even after being blocked by Duncan, he still quickly caught up with Marbury, suddenly reached out from behind Marbury, and poked the basketball that Marbury was dribbling away.

In front of Marbury, Stoudemire, who was originally preparing to assist in defense, grabbed the basketball. Then he reacted incredibly quickly. After just one look, he threw the basketball towards the front court.

Lin Tian immediately accelerated, unleashing all his speed and rushed towards the basketball!
There were several other players who started at the same time as him, and some of them even started running wildly from outside the three-point line. When they started at the same time, players like Pierce had a lead of almost 3-2 meters.

But before they even crossed halfway point, several people were almost in parallel positions.

Then Pierce stretched out his hands as far as possible, wanting to be the first to control the basketball that was thrown out by Stoudemire and was now within reach.

But just as he stretched out his hand, an arm stretched out faster and earlier than his, and then, in Pierce's incredulous eyes, Lin Tian's hand touched the basketball first.

"Snapped!"

Lin Tian poked the ball forward several meters. This time, even if Pierce's butt was set on fire, he would not be able to catch up with Lin Tian.

Lin Tian once again broke out of the siege, rushed out from among everyone, officially hugged the basketball, and then rushed to the empty frontcourt again, and completed a dunk once again!

"Rivers, that idiot, call a timeout! Substitute!" Bird spread his hands in front of the TV and shouted in disbelief: "Is Stephen Marbury his biological father or did he save his life? Why didn't he call a timeout or substitute?"

"This idiot, why hasn't he made any adjustments yet?"

Bird was extremely angry!
He didn't understand! How could Rivers' reaction be so slow?
Go to hell idiot!
Bird was angry, but Barkley was very happy: "Another one! At the beginning of the fourth quarter, Lin had a block, a steal, and two dunks!"

"The score difference between the two sides has once again reached double digits!"

"Lin beat Marbury! These two guys are really not even at the same level! Marbury is no match for Lin at all!"

"He really should wake up! He needs to play more as a team and pass the ball to his teammates! This is what the Celtics need him to do! If he continues to single out Lin, the Celtics will lose!"

"I beat you, Stephen! You should have realized by now that we are not players of the same level. We are not players of the same rank at all! You are no match for me at all!"

"You really should wake up! You have to play as a team and pass the ball to your teammates! This is what the Celtics need you to do! If you continue to single me out, you will lose!"

After scoring the goal, Lin Tian continued to mock and ridicule Marbury, and every word he said hit Marbury right in the heart.

Especially when Rivers didn't order a substitution or remind Marbury, but just kept yelling at everyone on the sidelines, asking them to cheer up and give it their all, it was impossible for Marbury's already broken heart to remain calm.

"One more!" Marbury said something to Lin Tian that was enough to break the heart of the entire Boston. He wanted to continue challenging Lin Tian.

That is to say, there were no other Celtics players around him at that moment, and no one heard what Marbury said. Otherwise, the Celtics players would have called a timeout and rushed up to tie up Marbury and carry him out of the court.

Still challenging! Here comes another one!

But go to hell with you!

Since Marbury is going to take the initiative to continue challenging Lin Tian, ​​Lin Tian will certainly not let him down!

Lin Tian rushed to Marbury's side almost immediately, and started to attack Marbury from the Celtics' three-point line in the half court, sticking to him for full-court pressing defense.

This time, Lin Tian really gave his all and put 120 points of concentration into defending Marbury and hindering his advancement.

But Marbury is truly worthy of being one of the league's top point guards. His problems have never been about ability, but about character.

There is absolutely no need for any doubt or questioning about his ability to control the ball.

7 seconds!
Marbury barely made it through half court on the verge of an 8-second violation. After passing half court, he pushed Lin Tian away with his butt, took a short breath, and then dribbled the ball between his legs again. He took an attacking step and jumped forward half a step, followed by two consecutive cross-dribbles. The moves were so beautiful!
However, just when this guy was addicted to showing off and was about to do a cross-legged dribble... Lin Tian finally found the opportunity!

A sure kill, a chance to steal the ball!
Lin Tian's hand suddenly stretched out and slapped the basketball that Marbury was dribbling.

"Snapped!"

Broken again!
"You are showing off!"

When Lin Tian passed by Marbury again, he left behind a piece of trash talk that Marbury would remember for at least two months.

But other than that, there was nothing he could do.

He could only watch Lin Tian quickly make another 1 vs 0 in the frontcourt.

Then he jumped up with ease and completed another dunk in the fourth quarter!
This was also Lin Tian’s third consecutive dunk in the fourth quarter!
2 steals, 1 block, 3 dunks!
What does one-on-one crushing mean? It means completely suppressing the opponent and beating him?

That's it.

It’s a complete lesson for me.

"Come on! Give Stephen some support! Stephen, pass the ball more! Come on, hold on! Get the score back!" Rivers, who was off the court, seemed to be not ready to call a timeout. Instead, he was shouting at the court, trying to use his roar to help the players get back their feeling.

"pause!"

Duncan couldn't bear to watch it anymore.

He had never seen a coach who reacted so slowly.

Well, he had.

He also spent the past few years with the Magic alongside Rivers.

Duncan is extremely regretful now. He regrets it to the extreme.

When he came to the Celtics, Auerbach asked Duncan: "Do you have any special requirements for the head coach?"

"No! I am confident that I can work well with all coaches." Duncan maintained his confidence and humility at the time: "I am just a player. I don't need to specify a coach."

But no matter how much he planned, Duncan could never have imagined that the world was so small.

Rivers: Mr. Deng, all encounters in this world are reunions after a long separation.

Fuck you!
Duncan walked off the court cursing and sat on the bench.

"Tim, what's wrong with you? Do you need to rest?" Rivers asked with some concern when he saw Duncan call a timeout.

rest?

Am I still taking a break?
I’m in the fucking fourth quarter and I haven’t even touched the ball yet. Should I take a break?

"Stephen, how are you going to fight next!"

how to spell?
Marbury was stunned. He asked me to lead the tactics? He was willing to trust me after I made three mistakes in a row?
He believes me!

In an instant, Marbury felt that Duncan's head was glowing, and he felt that it was God!

The confidence that had just been beaten to almost nothing by Lin Tian was now revived and filled his body once again.

That's teammates! Real teammates! We are a team!
Marbury, whose confidence soared, patted his chest and said, "Next round, I want to play a high double screen, then find a direction to go directly to the basket to complete a layup, break the team's scoring drought, and at the same time prove that I am no worse than Lin!"

"I can do it!" (End of this chapter)
