NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

While Lin Tian was provoking Howard crazily and trying to lure him up, he also noticed from the corner of his eye that Allen was approaching secretly from behind him. This guy wanted to launch a sneak attack.

How could an old bitch like Lin Tian be tricked by a younger bitch who's not that bitchy?

He saw the right moment and suddenly took a step back, almost bumping into Allen. Then he screamed and suddenly jumped up to shoot. The basketball flew out of his hand and flew towards the basket. At the same time, Lin Tian shouted: "AND ONE!"

This is obviously not asking his signed sneakers to protect himself, Lin Tian is asking the referee for a whistle!

"Dudu!"

The referee did not disappoint Lin Tian and blew the whistle subconsciously.

"Shh!"

Then there was a crisp sound, and Lin Tian’s mid-range shot also hit the target!
"Blocking foul, 2 points valid, 1 free throw!"

After the referee blew the whistle, although he felt something was strange and not right, he did not say much and still gave his own decision.

Allen opened his hands in disbelief and said, "I didn't do anything! He bumped into me, I didn't do anything! I didn't even reach out my hand!"

"You bumped into me, and it hurt me so much." Lin Tian said shamelessly, "You blocked my way forward, um, backward! If you hadn't blocked me, I would have already stepped back and shot a 3-pointer from outside the 3-point line!"

"You are kidding me." Pierce, who always had a good relationship with Lin Tian, ​​couldn't help but pointed at the 3-point line and said, "You are still 3 meters away from the 2-point line, Lin! Can you retreat 2 meters with one step back?"

"can!"

"Come on!"

"I do not!"

"Then you can't!"

"I can! I can reach 3 meters with one step back!"

"Then you come one!"

"I do not!"

"Stop, stop, stop, both of you shut up!" Seeing Lin Tian and Pierce arguing like elementary school students, the referee quickly intervened between the two and signaled them to be quiet.

At that time, the referees still found Lin Tian's foul quite strange.

How could they retreat to create an obstacle? This was the first time they had seen such a scene.

But according to the rules, Allen did block Lin Tian's path, and the two did have physical contact when Lin Tian was shooting, so there was absolutely no problem in calling a foul.

This is the situation... weird, very weird.

At this time, if the referee asked Lin Tian humbly, Lin Tian would explain it to him.

There is a story behind this goal. This move is called a back-and-forth attack!

No, a surprise attack!

Things like fraud and insurance fraud have never had anything to do with Mr. Lin.

Back carbine!
This move is a unique skill on the court that Lin Tian learned from the profound martial arts passed down by his ancestors. It focuses on catching the opponent off guard and attacking them when they are unprepared, making it impossible for them to defend themselves or dodge!
Even Harden doesn’t know this trick!
Harden learned from Jingdezhen, and his specialty is the Eighteen Falls of Touching Clothes. The key is that if you are touched, you will fall, and if you are not touched, you will fall too. If you dodge, I will chase you and make you fall.

Mr. Lin said: This move of mine is one level further than your Eighteen Drops. I can commit a foul even with my back to the opponent!
If Harden had a trick like Lin Tian, ​​he wouldn't look funny and at a loss when being defended by Rubio from behind.

When facing Rubio, Mr. Lin can teach Rubio a lesson in a moment with a step back!

Allen's complaints and misunderstandings will obviously not be accepted by the referee. A foul is a foul.

Lin Tian made an extra free throw.

"Tony, you shouldn't have come up for this shot." Howard complained with his hands spread out, "I've already pushed him into a desperate situation. If you hadn't fouled him just now, he would have been unable to do anything except pass the ball!"

"Stop making things worse!"

When Howard was a rookie, he was quite respectful and honest to Duncan and Pierce, but now he is not so polite to Allen, who entered the NBA in the same year as him.

The main character is a bully who is afraid of the strong and takes advantage of the weak.

Howard's words left Allen at a loss for words.

You have no choice but to pass the ball. If I hadn't come here just now, he would have broken your leg bones!
But Allen didn't dare to say this.

Anyone who can practice defense well, besides having a tenacious character and doing the most basic and boring defensive training every day, must also be quite smart without exception.

They know who to mess with and who not to mess with.

For example, Howard cannot be provoked. It is obvious that this guy will become the future and hope of the Celtics. It is obvious that the team will rebuild with him as the core after Pierce and Duncan grow old. This kind of person is definitely not to be provoked.

If he gets angry, Allen might have to leave the team.

So Allen endured it. He didn't say much, but nodded, turned around and left.

At the same time, he made up his mind: In the next round, he would never give Howard a chance to make up.

But sometimes, it’s not that it’s okay if he doesn’t make up for it.

How does the story go? A wolf bullied a rabbit. On the first day they met, he slapped the rabbit in the face and said, "I told you not to wear a hat!"

The next day, the wolf met the little rabbit wearing a hat again and slapped him again: "I told you to wear a hat."

On the third day, the rabbit went to the tiger to complain that the wolf bullied him. The tiger taught the wolf a lesson: "Brother, you can bully people, but you must have a suitable excuse! You can ask him to find you a female wolf. If the female wolf is thin, you beat him and ask why he didn't find a fat one. If he finds a fat one, you still beat him and ask why he didn't find a thin one."

you got it?

The wolf said he understood, and the next day he went to find the rabbit proudly. After seeing the rabbit's face, the wolf suddenly became too lazy to talk nonsense, and slapped the rabbit again: "I told you not to wear a hat!"

What does this story illustrate?

This shows that this rabbit is very tough. Maybe it is a mutated rabbit hero. Otherwise, what kind of rabbit can take several slaps from the big bad wolf and still be so energetic?

Bah! Not this.

When a wolf decides to bully a rabbit, he doesn't care whether the rabbit is wearing a hat or not. When it's time to slap the rabbit, he just slaps it and that's it.

Howard bullied Allen, that's what happened.

After a few rounds, Lin Tian once again broke into the mid-range area. After Howard once again pressed forward, Lin Tian used a series of rather cool and arrogant fancy dribbles to attract Howard to come up.

Then, just as Howard took a step forward and prepared to defend closely, Lin Tian accelerated and rushed past Howard with ease.

With just one acceleration, he passed Howard so cleanly!

After arriving at the basket, Lin Tian first attracted Duncan's defensive attention, and then suddenly made a one-handed pass from behind, bypassing Duncan and giving the ball to Barnes behind him.

"boom!"

After a loud bang, Barnes received an assist from Lin Tian and easily completed a dunk!
"Dwight, where are you? Are you lost in life again? I've said it before, college is important! At least it can keep you from getting lost, right?" After assisting Barnes, Lin Tian scolded Howard again.

Howard, who failed in defense, was quite smart and did not argue with Lin Tian. Instead, he turned around and found Allen, spread his hands and said to him: "Where are you, Tony? Defense! You are defending Lin, how could you give him such a big space?" "Dwight, shut up." This time it was Pierce who stood up and presided over justice: "Tony did nothing wrong, you have to be careful! Don't be easily tricked out of the 3-second zone by Lin, and continue with our game strategy!"

Since the big brother had spoken, Howard of course kept his mouth shut, but he glared at Allen fiercely, as if this matter was not over yet.

In the rest of the second quarter, the Celtics continued to rely on their two stars and other players' piecemeal efforts to score points. Their defensive quality tonight had actually declined significantly because they were constantly punished by the Knicks in the mid-range.

But fortunately, their offense finally picked up, so they were still not left behind in the first half of the game.

55: 60!

At the end of the first half, the Celtics were still 5 points behind the Knicks.

"It's hard to say which team has the upper hand in this game," Kenny said, stroking his chin. "Neither side has fully grasped the rhythm, and neither team has played their best game."

"But they both disrupted the other side's plans and played quite well on the offensive end!"

"The Celtics' mid-range shooting was clearly a losing bet. The Knicks' accuracy in the first half was simply at a new high. Not to mention the playoffs, they didn't have many games this regular season where they were this accurate."

"So I'm curious whether the Celtics will change their game strategy in the second half."

"As for the Knicks..."

Kenny paused for a moment, and Barkley took over the conversation: "It's hard to say whether the Knicks' defense was blown up by their opponents."

"Because no one can beat something that doesn't exist! But Duncan and Pierce were in great form tonight! They combined to score 39 points in the first half! If they continue to play like this, they may both get 40 points tonight!"

"It's hard to say whether the opponent's performance meets the Knicks' expectations. After all, for the Knicks, as long as the opponent scores less than me, my defense is successful. From this perspective, their defense is successful."

"But if you look at it from a normal perspective, their defense was terrible. They didn't defend at all."

"So in the end, the second half of the game still depends on the offensive feel of both teams! Whoever can continue the form of the first half will win this game tonight!"

The 15-minute halftime break was over quickly. With the start of the second half, both sides showed their determination and quickly recovered their physical strength.

Pierce made a 3-pointer as soon as he came on the court to narrow the gap, and then Okur received the ball from outside the 3-point line and made a 3-pointer in return.

Then Duncan played a one-on-one game in the low post, shook off Okur and made an easy layup. Lin Tian on the opposite side immediately accelerated to the basket and scored a very difficult goal against Duncan and Howard.

Then Pierce broke through to the basket and attracted multiple defenders, then he passed the ball to Davis in the corner, assisting him to make a 3-point shot!
After scoring the goal, the Celtics once again ignored the defense of the Knicks' fast break ball. After receiving the ball, Lin Tian started to run wildly and rushed all the way to the Celtics' basket, but did not rush to shoot.

Instead, he dribbled the ball around the outside of the Celtics' three-second zone twice before passing the ball to Stoudemire who was following up from the outside.

Stoudemire took off with the ball in one hand, and this time he finally succeeded, with a great slash, and slammed the ball into the basket!
From the state of both teams at the beginning of the second half, it can be seen that the offensive firepower of these two teams was completely opened today! A battle of equal strength! The rhythm of tonight's game is completely different from the style of the previous games in the series!
Both sides' hands were so hot that the basketball went into the basket again and again.

Of course, although it was a confrontation and both sides attacked fiercely, their performance and attitude on the defensive end were completely different.

The Celtics couldn't defend at all, and the Knicks didn't want to defend at all.

But no matter what the two teams are thinking, the result is the same.

No one could widen the gap, and the scores of both sides were rising rapidly.

After the entire series was extremely dull and drowsy, in the seventh game of the series, the two sides finally started a hearty offensive battle!

Both sides put down their burdens, both sides let go completely, and both sides entered into a crazy attack mode.

81: 84!

At the end of the third quarter, the gap between the two sides narrowed to 3 points!
86: 84.

Less than a minute into the fourth quarter, Duncan scored five points in a row at the basket to overtake the score.

88: 89.

Three minutes into the fourth quarter, the Knicks took the lead again with a 3-pointer from Anthony and regained the initiative.

90:89
90:92
92:92
94:92……

The game pace of both sides in the fourth quarter was extremely fast, the scoring efficiency was also quite high, and the scores of both sides were closely matched, with each side refusing to give in.

After the Celtics successfully overtook the score at the beginning of the quarter, the difference between the two sides never exceeded 3 points. The scores on both sides have been entangled and no one can widen the score.

This tense and efficient scoring battle lasted until the last minute of the game!

At this point, the scores of both sides have far exceeded their average scores per game in this series, reaching a new high in this series.

122: 121!

The Celtics not only led by one point, but also had possession of the ball.

By this point, Pierce had scored a team-high 44 points. As the first person on the team to arrive in Boston, he shouldered the responsibilities that he should have.

Duncan was not far behind, he had already scored monster-level data of 41 points, 18 rebounds, 4 assists and 6 blocks. Duncan also gave his all tonight!
In addition to these two absolute stars, Howard scored a double-double with 13 points, 15 rebounds and 4 blocks, and Davis also scored 10 points.

The team's core players all performed very well, and the playing time of these four players exceeded 45 minutes!

It can be said that they hardly had any rest tonight.

On the Knicks side, Lin Tian once again scored a big triple-double of 48 points, 10 rebounds and 14 assists. He killed the entire Celtics team with just his mid-range jump shot!
He made 21 of 15 shots in this wide mid-range area and scored 30 points!
Just raise your hand and it will come, jump and go in!
His indiscriminate killing almost caused the Celtics' entire defensive system to collapse!
除了中距离的疯狂之外，林天在3分线外4投2中，篮下9投4中，罚球4罚全中。

Judging from the shot distribution and efficiency, Lin Tian shot through the Celtics from mid-range tonight!

Pierce dribbled the basketball to the frontcourt. He knew how important this attack was!
It must be hit. Only by hitting it can the team continue to take the initiative!
After seeing that the person defending him was Anthony, Pierce waved his hand decisively, signaling everyone to move away from him.

At this time, don’t talk about tactics and teamwork, it’s time for a one-on-one fight!
Pierce's continuous between-the-crotch dribbling looked somewhat ugly and uncoordinated, but Anthony knew that it was this ugly dribbling and strange rhythm that made the entire Knicks' front line feel extremely frustrated in this series.

"I'm coming!"

Pierce gave a warning and then started off suddenly!

His speed is not fast, but the rhythm is quite difficult to catch. He rushed to the waist position on the wing against Anthony, and Pierce suddenly stopped. After a half turn, he accelerated and continued to advance from the other side. After reaching the 3-second zone, Pierce suddenly turned again and raised the ball over his head with both hands.

Anthony was fooled!

The guy jumped up subconsciously, but found out that he was fooled after he jumped up. Seeing that Pierce was about to rub against him and shoot to get a 2+1, Anthony also made a prompt decision, using his last bit of control, aiming at Pierce's big hand and slapping it.

"Snapped!"

There was a loud and crisp sound, which made Pierce's entire wrist red.

"Dudu!"

But the referee's whistle sounded without suspense, Anthony committed a defensive foul and Pierce made two free throws!

"Good defense, Melo. You've made significant progress." Lin Tian ran over quickly and patted Anthony on the butt to encourage him: "If it were before, he would have made you a 2+1!"

"But next time we meet, I will make him miss the shot!" Anthony pounded his chest and vowed, "I will no longer be a burden to you, Lin! I will be a better me!"

"Good job." Lin Tian smiled and punched Anthony again.

Just know how to make progress! (End of this chapter)
