NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

After the relaxing weekend of the All-Star Game, the intensity of each team has increased!
Those who were resting, recovering from injuries, or slacking off in the first half of the season will have to give their all after the All-Star Game.

Those who were still adjusting their lineups in the first half of the season will have to start working hard to improve their performance in the second half.

Those who failed to make the cut in the first half of the season will have to think of ways to prepare for the draft in June this year.

In short, the same thing applies: after the All-Stars, no matter what you do, each team must determine its own goals and then go all out!

The only pity is that there were no major deals worth mentioning before the trade deadline after the All-Star Game this year. All parties basically remained on the sidelines, and both sellers and buyers chose to remain silent. This year's deadline was definitely the quietest one in the past few years!

As for the Knicks, they keep winning.

They haven't created any exaggerated winning streak records so far this season, but they can keep winning and constantly widen the gap with the pursuers behind them.

At the end of February, they had 2 wins and 46 losses, 11 games ahead of the second-placed Suns in the league.

At the end of March, they had 3 wins and 59 losses, 14 games ahead of the second-placed Pistons in the league!
In April, the Knicks won five consecutive games, bringing their record to 5 wins and 64 losses. With only four games left in the regular season, they were already seven games ahead of the second-placed Spurs!

In other words, even if they lose four games in a row and all their pursuers win four games in a row, the Knicks can still get first place in the league!

They secured first place in the league 10 days in advance!

This lead is absolutely huge.

And old Nelson is also quite single. After the team secured the first place in the league, he started to rest immediately!

All the important players under his command took turns to rest in the next games. Important substitutes such as Smith, Barnes, Wallace, etc. rested for 2 games, and absolute main players such as Lin Tian, ​​Anthony, Stoudemire, etc. rested for 3 games.

The two old players of New York, Houston and Ward, did not play in the four games, allowing them to recover and wait for the playoffs.

In these 4 games, the Knicks' record was naturally not worth mentioning, with only 1 win and 3 losses in the end.

Their final record of this season was also locked at 65 wins and 17 losses.

Firmly ranked first in the league!

What’s even more rare is that this year’s alliance is not weak!
In addition to the Knicks, there are 3 other teams with 60 wins in the entire league!

The competitiveness this year is definitely not weak!

But even with such strong competition, the Knicks still took first place in the league! And they locked the first place 10 days in advance!

Their strength and energy are definitely enough to make them the league's number one favorite to win the championship this year!
This season, the entire Knicks team has made great progress and growth because of the hard training in the summer, and everyone played better than last season!

The team's top scorer is Amar'e Stoudemire, who averaged 25.4 points, 8.9 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game this season!
This season, his mid-range accuracy and face-to-frame breakthrough ability have all improved significantly compared to previous seasons! His efficiency has been significantly improved, and everyone believes that even if he meets last year's old rivals the Celtics and Pistons again this year, Stoudemire will not be so embarrassed!
The other is Anthony, the team's second-leading scorer, who averaged 22.1 points and 5.5 rebounds per game this season. Although there has not been much improvement in his statistics, this is because the team is too strong and too many games have been sent to garbage time, so his playing time has also been significantly reduced.

But at the same time, his playing style is extremely sharp and fierce, and his hit rate and efficiency have also improved significantly. This year, he is a more mature and reliable star scorer!

In addition, Okur is another player on the team who scores more than double digits. He averaged 10.2 points and 6.5 rebounds per game this season. Although he is not a traditional inside player and his defense is not worth mentioning, his 44% 3-point shooting percentage is the highest in the team. His 3-point shooting percentage combined with his height also gives all teams in the league a headache.

He and Lin Tian set up a pick-and-roll. Even though all opponents knew that he was going to step out to shoot 3-pointers, no one could do anything about him and Lin Tian!

Although Houston, who successfully returned this season, was still troubled by some injuries, played only 56 games throughout the season and averaged only 8 points per game, his experience, shooting and running awareness are definitely an important addition to the team.

In addition to the starting four, Ward on the team's bench continued his role as the stabilizing force of the bench. Although he averaged only 4 points and 2 assists per game, his less than 1 turnover per game allowed old Nelson to let Lin Tian rest with peace of mind. With him around, the Knicks were rarely defeated by their opponents.

Wallace has made great progress this season. Not only has his average points per game reached a career-high 11.2 points, but he also has 1.4 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. In the Knicks team where no one is defending him, he is one of the few guys who actively devotes a lot of energy on the defensive end!

In addition, players such as Smith, Barnes, Nate and others have also made significant contributions to the team and are deeply loved by the fans and trusted by old Nelson.

And finally, there is Lin Tian, ​​the absolute core of the team, who had an epic season this year and achieved unprecedented statistics!
This season, Lin Tian played in 79 games, and his average playing time dropped to the lowest value since his Bulls career, only 33.6 minutes. However, in this almost lowest playing time in his career, Lin Tian got the craziest statistics of his career.

Hmm, one of the craziest stats ever!

After all, this guy has won both the scoring title and the assists title, has the highest assists per game in NBA history, and has countless other crazy stats.

But even among the countless statistics that Lin Tian has achieved that have been described as 'shocking' and 'unprecedented', what Lin Tian has achieved this season is still unbelievable.

He averaged only 21.5 points per game this season, but in addition to that, Lin Tian also averaged 11.3 rebounds and 13.8 assists per game!
Averaging a triple-double!

After Oscar Robertson, Lin Tian became another person to average a triple-double!
Robertson's triple-double average has always been known as the most difficult record to break along with Chamberlain's 50 points per game, Stockton's 14.5 assists per game and a series of other data.

Many people even think that even if someone can break Chamberlain's record of 50 points per game, it is impossible for anyone to average a triple-double again!

Because it's just too difficult!
After all, in this era, triple-doubles are quite advanced and top-notch statistics!
Oscar Robertson, who ranks first, has only 181 triple-doubles in his career, and Magic Johnson, who ranks second, has only 139.

Apart from these two and Lin Tian, ​​there is no fourth person in the league's history who has achieved more than 100 triple-doubles!

Chamberlain, who ranked fourth, plummeted to only 78 times.

But Lin Tian achieved this miracle this season!

He accomplished the feat of averaging a triple-double!
Meanwhile, Lin Tian has already had 41 triple-doubles this season alone! This means he can get a triple-double every two games! His versatility is so amazing that it's unbelievable!
At the same time, after the end of this season, Lin Tian’s total triple-doubles have reached 131 times!
Everyone believes that he will surpass Magic Johnson and become second on the triple-double list next season!

As for surpassing Robertson? Everyone also believes that with his current state and ability, Lin Tian will most likely become the triple-double king in NBA history before his contract with the Knicks expires!
This is known as the most unbreakable record! This is one of the highest statistics in NBA history!

You know, in this era, Robertson was able to surpass such strong players as Dream, Irving, Moses Malone and so on just by averaging a triple-double in those two years, and was firmly ranked in the top ten in NBA history!

Many times, some people even put him among the top five in history!

The shocking degree of this triple-double is evident!
And Lin Tian successfully replicated this achievement this season.

He became the second person in NBA history to average a triple-double in a single season!
In fact, there were signs that he could do this. Many years ago, Lin Tian surpassed Chamberlain and became the person with the most consecutive triple-doubles in history. He was also able to get "near triple-doubles" in many seasons.

But this year, because the passing level of Stoudemire and Okur is not excellent, and their rebounding level is also quite mediocre.

So old Nelson decided to completely unleash Lin Tian's energy. While speeding up the tempo of the game, he also let Lin Tian focus more on the inside, prepare to grab rebounds and then directly launch a counterattack!

This not only protects the rebound, but also saves the precious time of the first pass, allowing Lin Tian to release his energy and run wildly!
Nelson’s tactical change is also an important reason why Lin Tian averaged a triple-double this season!

All of Lin Tian's fans went completely crazy after finding out that Lin Tian might get a triple-double this season. They started celebrating early and calculated in every game how many points, rebounds and assists Lin Tian would need to get to accomplish the feat of averaging a triple-double.

They are looking forward to it, they are waiting, they are extremely excited!
In an ordinary game at the end of March, when Lin Tian once again scored a big triple-double of 3 points, 23 rebounds and 15 assists, the entire Madison was instantly ignited!

Because his assists and points had already been determined to not fall below 0 no matter how wasteful he was, even if he had 0 points and 10 assists in the next few games, his rebounds became something that everyone was watching and calculating.

After grabbing 15 rebounds in this game, Lin Tian finally reached his rebounding target!

His total rebounds exceeded 820!
This means that even if Lin Tian plays in all the following games, and even if he fails to grab a single rebound in all the games, his average rebounds per game will not be less than 10!
He completed the season's triple-double averaging and challenge ahead of schedule!

That night, the whole Madison was filled with cheers, and the fans were shouting wildly as if they had won the championship.

Nelson even called a timeout, and Dolan walked over to Lin Tian with the game ball and handed it to him. The opponents also lined up one by one to hug Lin Tian and express their blessings and respect.

For three whole days after that, the entire league was discussing the topic of Lin Tian finally averaging a triple-double. The entire league was shocked by Lin Tian's madness.

The craziest ones are Barkley and Kenny.

After Lin Tian got his 820th rebound, Barkley was so crazy that he acted like he had won the championship again. He even jumped onto the TNT studio table and yelled.

I finally won a big one!
excited!

Super excited!

A happy Barkley was very excited looking at Kenny's expression that looked like he had eaten shit.

Because this guy is about to eat real shit.

Or maybe Barkley is more relaxed than Kenny!

In Lin Tian’s memory, Kenny was unwilling to offer his ass to Barkley, so he specially found a donkey named Kenny for Barkley to bite.

But Barkley had no such concerns. He didn't want to give such a good opportunity to the donkey.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

While the game was still going on, Barkley stuck out his butt and signaled Kenny to take a bite quickly.

"Either you accept the bet and come here tonight, or I won't shower or change clothes for the next week and will only be left with my underwear before you come here!" Barkley threatened Kenny directly on the spot, saying that you must fulfill this bet today!

TNT's ratings soared at this moment!

Countless fans turned on their TVs and tuned to this channel, waiting to see Kenny's historic kiss with Barkley.

This kind of scene is rare!

At this moment, TNT's viewership soared to 3000 million!

What does this number mean?

This means that when Barkley represented the Suns in the 1993 finals against Jordan and the Bulls, only this many people in the United States were watching.

Compared to watching the 'flying pig' vs. the 'flying man', fans obviously prefer to watch Kenny kiss Barkley's butt!
"What!"

With great disgust, Kenny gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. In the end, he fulfilled his promise and bet and bit Barkley's butt.

With the birth of this historic moment, TNT's ratings are even approaching 3500 million!

But unfortunately, this was just the peak. The number of viewers began to decline significantly and everyone started to change channels.

But even so, this scene is definitely enough to go down in history!

This is definitely the most watched kiss moment in history!
TNT's middle and senior management now feel somewhat regretful and anxious.

They were thinking, why not come here every year from now on?
There’s nothing we can do about it, who makes the fans like to watch it?
Well... that's what they thought and they really did it.

Then Kenny refused sternly and said that he would never participate in any betting or gambling again in his life!
Quit gambling!
Going too far again.

Pull the camera back to Lin Tian himself.

This season, in addition to averaging a triple-double, he continued to be the assist king this season, and his rebounding number also ranked among the top five in the league!

He is the Knicks' rebounding champion and the first guard in league history to enter the top five in rebounding!

He has the highest average rebounds per game among all players under 195 cm in NBA history!

Or let’s put it this way: except for Oscar Robertson, who is 195 cm tall, and Ben Wallace and Rodman, whose heights are unknown, there is no other player under 2 meters tall who can average more than 10 rebounds per game in a season!

Lin Tian's rebounding ability has been greatly demonstrated this season!
But it must be said that because he retreated to grab rebounds, he missed some people and allowed some opponents to score.

But this is the Knicks, and the head coach here is old Nelson!

What does it matter if the opponent scores a few goals?
As long as you can score more goals, old Nelson can completely ignore this level of missed players and lost balls!

But while Nelson can ignore it, the reporters who vote for the best lineup probably can't.

Many people say: Lin Tian’s record of being selected into the league’s double first team for eight consecutive years will most likely be broken starting this year.

Many people also said: He should have ended his consecutive double-first team journey last year. The Knicks' defense last season was already rotten. Lin Tian was selected because he had some highlight defensive moments and a huge reputation.

If someone else played the same defensive performance as Lin Tian, ​​he would definitely not get even a single vote for the best defensive team!

Analyzing from the situation of Lin Tian's defensive degradation, those people said that Lin Tian's peak has passed, and now he is just in the last moments of his life. He may face a cliff-like decline and degradation at any time. This year will be his last madness!
At the same time, because of the poor defense and because the Knicks are the team with the most points lost per game in the entire league, Lin Tian does not deserve to be the MVP. He should not get the MVP because he does not defend.

Lin Tian was dismissive of these statements and was too lazy to respond.

Even Lin Tian felt that the one who was most hurt right now might be Nash, who won the MVP last year.

That's what it means to be defenseless!
As for the reason why Lin Tian did not respond, firstly, it was just a defensive lineup. Top stars have never cared about this kind of defensive honor. I have never seen anyone put out a few defensive lineups when comparing historical status!
It's not chilling enough.

Secondly, Lin Tian faces countless doubts and ridicules every day. If he were to respond to everything, he would have been exhausted long ago.

Lin Tian would never respond to these guys who don't even use logic when they attack others, and he is too lazy to respond.

It's like a rocket engineer is talking to an amateur scientist about rocket launches, and the amateur scientist says, "I think rockets can fly higher and faster by burning coal." What the rocket engineer should definitely not do is argue with the scientist about why coal cannot be used.

All he has to do is nod and say: What you said makes sense!

argue?

If Lin Tian says one more word, he will be considered the loser.

In particular, those questioning voices are after all a minority. After all, there are still many normal people in this world.

Except for those illogical lunatics who keep criticizing Lin Tian, ​​most of the remaining fans are almost crazy about Lin Tian's performance this season.

After all, this is an average of a triple-double!
Even before this season, the topic of who is better between Lin Tian and Jordan was still popular, and there were still people discussing and arguing about it.

But after averaging a triple-double this season and after Lin Tian had such a perfect season, this topic has almost died down.

No one discussed it.

It’s decided, it’s you, Lin Tian!
Although they didn’t reach a complete agreement, at least they went from having some back and forth to now having a complete crush! (End of this chapter)
