NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Jackson's calm and cool encouragement successfully gave the Lakers players a wave of confidence. This old guy's understanding and application of human nature and coaching philosophy are indeed unparalleled.

The only problem is: he once had a Gundam, so he can be invincible. He even has two Gundams now, but they are at most Zaku prototypes.

The one on the opposite side is a Strike Freedom, which is known as a high-performance all-round machine, the world's number one machine with both high mobility and high firepower.

His two Zakus are really not good enough.

This is also the biggest reason why Jackson has been unable to deal with Lin Tian’s team and always lost to him in the past few years.

This guy is so strong that he is no different from a monster!

But even so, Jackson is not ready to give up, and the Lakers' OK combination and everyone else are not ready to give up either!

Go ahead!
Next, in the last 3 minutes of the game, the Knicks and the Lakers were tied. Both sides took the lead several times, but were also overtaken by the other side again after taking the lead. The two teams were completely entangled with each other, and no one could get a truly reliable lead!
No one dared to relax at this time, and both sides were in a state of absolute tension and absolute concentration.

In the last 30 seconds of the game, with O'Neal getting the ball in the low post, he passed it to Kobe who was cutting to the basket and assisted him in making a layup, and the two sides were tied again!

122: 122!

In the last 30 seconds, each side has an attack opportunity!

The most tense moment of the whole night has come!
"No pause! Let's go!" Old Nelson stood up confidently, waved at Lin Tian, ​​and then sat back down.

At this time he absolutely trusts Lin Tian!

So instead of calling a timeout at this time to distract Lin Tian or make him hesitate, it is better to give him the decision-making power completely!
Lin Tian was well prepared for this. After waving his hand for everyone to calm down, he watched the Lakers retreat to their own half before letting Anthony pass the ball.

It's a ground ball.

Lin Tian followed the basketball, walking forward leisurely, while also directing his teammates to move as quickly as possible.

It was not until Lin Tian followed the basketball all the way across the center line that he calmly picked up the basketball. It was time for the game, and he finally started walking again!
"This is the Knicks' theoretical last offensive chance! They will press on to the last... No! Lin has no intention of pressing on time at all! He's rushing forward!" Barkley was speaking slowly at first, because he felt that Lin Tian would definitely compress the offensive time before attacking.

But he never expected that the moment Lin Tian picked up the ball, he had already launched an attack!
Lin Tian dribbled the ball and rushed towards the inside!
This time, Lin Tianchong's action was really unexpected! It was so sudden that it exceeded everyone's expectations.

That’s not all. This time when he accelerated, he increased his speed to the maximum right from the start.

How fast is he?
It was so fast that even though Kobe was standing on the 3-point line waiting for defense, and even though Lin Tian was 2 meters away from Kobe when he started, Kobe couldn't react! He couldn't complete the block in the first time!

In the blink of an eye, Lin Tian completely left Kobe and the Lakers' first line of defense behind!

Fortunately, Kirilenko's reaction was really fast enough. This guy came in front of Lin Tian in the blink of an eye. At the same time, he adopted a defensive method of blocking one side and driving Lin Tian towards the baseline. In addition, Kobe, who was on the line, also began to chase back quickly.

Apart from confronting Kirilenko head-on, Lin Tian had no choice but to keep pushing towards the bottom line!

"Crack! Crack!"

Lin Tian dribbled the basketball twice quickly. Because Prince also joined the defense, he had reached the baseline. From his angle, there was already a negative angle between him and the basket!
Lin Tian now has the baseline on his left, Kobe on his right, Kirilenko in front of him, and Prince behind him. He is in a desperate situation! There is no way out.

Looking at the four Lakers players opening their arms and stretching them hard, even Lin Tian would find it difficult to pass the ball in this situation!
"I think we should call a timeout!" Kenny said quickly, "The Knicks have timeouts, so there's no need for Lin to force himself."

Before Kenny could finish his words, Lin Tian suddenly jumped up.

And he jumped out sideways and gracefully.

Lin Tian didn't mean to cause trouble, he didn't jump on any of the Lakers' defensive players.

The direction he jumped was the only direction that was not defended.

That is beyond the bottom line!
"What is Lin going to do! Is he crazy?" Barkley couldn't help but exclaimed: "He made a shot? Lin actually made a shot? From this position?"

With Barkley's exclamation, Lin Tian did take the shot! He jumped out of the basketball court, but at the same time he also avoided the defense of all the Lakers players, and he got a shot space outside the boundary!

Then Lin Tian aimed at the basket and threw the ball!

This time, the basketball flew higher than any of Lin Tian's previous shots. The basketball drew an extremely beautiful parabola, flew just above the backboard, and then began to fall.

The basketball was like a bomb, aimed at the net and fell in with incredible precision.

"Shh!"

With a crisp sound, Lin Tian shot the ball at a negative angle in a desperate situation and it hit the target!
"Oh my God! He did it! Lin did it! Incredible! Incredible!" Barkley shouted frantically, "This is just like watching a cartoon! How can a human being make such a shot! And at this time!"

"Unparalleled! Unparalleled imagination! Unparalleled courage! Unparalleled touch! Unparalleled creativity! Unparalleled Lin!"

Barkley roared wildly, exclaiming in admiration for Lin Tian's attack.

Too scary!

Mistakes and scoring happen in a split second.

There is only a tiny difference between an amazing goal and an extremely low-level mistake.

But Lin Tian did it again! When he was double-teamed by the Lakers and had no way out, he once again completed a fatal blow!
He successfully made the shot and scored 2 crucial points for the team!
122: 124!

"Hey, here's your chance." After scoring the goal, Lin Tian ignored the crazy roaring fans and his teammates who were celebrating excitedly. Instead, he looked at Kobe and O'Neal, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Whether you can seize the opportunity depends on your ability."

Lin Tian's words were obviously referring to the remaining game time.

24 seconds left!
Lin Tian's attack this time only took 6 seconds at most!

He completed the attack in just 6 seconds, leaving the Lakers a full 24 seconds!
From this perspective, Lin Tian is indeed quite "honest".

"No timeout!" Jackson also stood up and shouted to Kobe, "Kobe, kill them! Serve! Serve quickly!"

Jackson was not doing it out of anger or to save face. He was not the kind of person who would do something stupid for the sake of face.

He didn't call a timeout because he saw that old Nelson was not going to make a substitution!
If old Nelson didn't make a substitution at the moment of dead ball, then there should be no substitution!

Whether it was because of self-confidence or excessive happiness, whether old Nelson was confused or was overwhelmed by this goal.

If he didn't seize the opportunity, Jackson wouldn't help him make up for his mistake!

As Kirilenko sent the baseline ball to Fisher, the game continued again, and Nelson lost his last chance to adjust the lineup. Jackson was worried that Nelson would suddenly use a defensive lineup at this time, which would make their final attack very difficult.

Although the Knicks' defense is not worth mentioning, they have been the worst defensive team in the league throughout the season, or in the past two years!

But there were some moments tonight when the Knicks played some pretty impressive defense.

Yes! When Alonzo was here!
Although Mourning is old and can no longer play, he played for 12 minutes tonight, made 2 of 0 shots and scored no points, but Mourning's presence on the defensive end was very strong tonight!
He got 4 rebounds and 4 blocks! O'Neal and Kobe were both blocked by him!
This guy is in a very active state tonight and is trying his best. If you, old Nelson, don't send Mourning to play at this time, then don't let him play tonight.

The same goes for other guys like Barnes, Smith, Wallace, etc. whose defensive abilities are obviously much stronger than Houston and Anthony. Don't even think about playing.

Just play like this. Anyway, there is a full 24-second offensive opportunity. There is no timeout, and the players on the court are also capable of arranging and organizing an offense on their own.

Lakers, last chance tonight!

After Fisher dribbled quickly to the frontcourt, he immediately chose to pass the ball to Kobe.

At this time, he knew exactly what he should do.

Just create space and then open your hands and wait to catch the ball.

Kobe's favorite position for getting the ball was the 45-degree angle on the right wing. When he got the ball, he was already in a good position, two steps inside the three-point line.

Standing behind him was Lin Tian.

"Come on Kobe, let me see what you've been practicing these years! Show me some tricks you can use to defeat me!"

Lin Tian blocked Kobe's position tightly, not giving him any space to exert force. At the same time, without losing his position, he kept trying to move forward, trying to steal the ball from Kobe directly.

Kobe kept guarding against Lin Tian's steals, while quickly observing the situation on the entire court. With plenty of time, he was in no hurry to complete the attack.

Last 15 seconds!
Houston, who was originally defending Fisher, suddenly ran towards Kobe, wanting to double-team him.

But just when Houston came in front of Kobe, Kobe passed the ball!
The basketball flew almost right past Houston's face and went straight towards Fisher.

When Houston wanted to turn around to chase and defend Fisher, a figure who was faster and more agile than him had already pounced on Fisher like a cheetah!
Lin Tian!

This guy's reaction is unbelievably fast!

Houston even felt that when he came over to double-team Kobe, Lin Tian had already started moving and rushed towards Fisher.

Otherwise how could it be so fast?
Fisher got the basketball without any hesitation. His big heart attribute broke out at this moment. He jumped directly after receiving the ball and took a fatal three-point shot!
If this shot goes in, the Lakers will have a 5-point lead in the last 6-1 seconds!

"Snapped!"

But then, a crisp sound was heard!
Fisher's confident three-point shot was slapped away by the oncoming person just as it left his hand!

Lin Tian! He blocked the shot again at the most critical moment!

The basketball almost returned to its original path and flew behind Fisher.

Then, Lin Tian accelerated again, leaving Fisher behind, while quickly hugging the basketball and running all the way to the front court.

After arriving at the frontcourt, Lin Tian did not rush to attack, but ran towards the bottom corner!
Compared to scoring 2 points, wasting time is obviously more beneficial for the Knicks!
After Lin Tian ran all the way to the left corner, he looked back and saw Kobe and Fisher rushing towards him from the left and right without hesitation.

If they can foul Lin Tian and then Lin Tian makes 2 of 1 free throws, then the Lakers still have a chance!
But unfortunately, Lin Tian will not give them any chance at this time!

He shot it straight away!

The three-pointer from the corner came out and flew towards the basket.

"Rebound!" Kobe knew he didn't have time to grab the rebound, so he shouted behind him, hoping Kirilenko could grab the rebound.

But then, Kobe's eyes widened in disbelief.

This is a three-no-stick!

No, it's crossing the bridge!

Lin Tian's shot was extremely amazing. The basketball didn't even touch the basket. It flew directly to the opposite corner!
"FUXX!" Kobe cursed. He knew Lin Tian was wasting time, but it was too late.

The Lakers players thought Lin Tian was going to shoot, so they all rushed to the basket. As for the bottom corner on the other side, there were no Lakers players at all!
But there are Knicks players!

The old comrade Houston had the best awareness. He came to the corner, grabbed the basketball, and then quickly threw it to the top line.

Anthony hugged the basketball, then turned around and ran towards the center circle.

When Anthony ran to the center circle, Prince finally came to his side, but it was too late. Before Prince could commit a foul, the whistle to end the game sounded first!
The Knicks, after a tough battle at home, narrowly defeated the Lakers by 2 points!
They won the first game of the finals and got off to a good start in this series!
At the same time, this is also the Knicks' 13th consecutive win in the playoffs this season!
They haven't lost a single game in the playoffs this year!
At the same time, this is the 13th time that Lin Tian has scored a triple-double in this year's playoffs!
This evening, Lin Tian once again became the most outstanding performer in the entire Knicks!
Not only did he hit a buzzer-beater with 24 seconds left that changed the Knicks' fate, he also had a super triple-double of 48 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists in the entire game!
Well, this data could be called a super triple-double before the start of this year's playoffs, but with Lin Tian's crazy performance this year, this data can only be said to be okay at best!
Awesome, but that’s about it.

Who made Lin Tian’s performance in this year’s playoffs so exaggerated?

In addition to Lin Tian's oversized triple-double, the Knicks' Anthony scored 19 points, Stoudemire scored 20 points and 7 rebounds, Okur scored 11 points, Houston scored 6 points, and Nate, who came off the bench, became the surprise player of the night. He hit 3 three-pointers and scored 9 points. All of these three three-pointers were made in the fourth quarter!
Of course, there was another surprise player of the Knicks, Alonzo Mourning, who fought back and forth with O'Neal in a very short time and got 4 rebounds and 4 blocks! His defense against O'Neal in the first and fourth quarters became the magic touch that enabled the team to catch up with the score!

He successfully proved that he was not here to win the championship, but to help the Knicks win the championship!

Tonight, the Knicks team was absolutely united in their efforts. Facing the Lakers team that was in great form, they held on to the game, kept the score close, and successfully got off to a good start!

The Lakers on the opposite side actually suffered a very painful loss tonight, because like the Knicks, they had already played to their limit!
Although O'Neal was blocked twice by Alonso Mourning and was a little embarrassed at one point, he was the unstoppable giant for 95% of the game. He made 28 of 17 shots and 16 of 9 free throws tonight, scoring 43 points, 21 rebounds and 5 blocks, which are monster-level data.

同时，奥尼尔今晚也不是单兵作战，他的队友给他的支持同样相当给力，科比今晚19投9中，3分球6投3中，罚球8罚8中拿下29分11篮板10助攻的三双数据！
Although not as good as Lin Tian, ​​Kobe definitely tried his best. He definitely played at his best level and fully integrated into the team's overall offense. He did not stay out of the system at all.

除了他们两人之外，基里连科拿下11分5篮板，普林斯10分，首发五人组之中唯一发乎糟糕的就是7投1中只拿了2分的费舍尔。

But even though Fisher played badly, they still have the hero on the bench, Vujacic. Vujacic hit 4 three-pointers and scored 3 points that night. Both the 12 three-pointers and the 4 points in a single game are new highs in Vujacic's playoff career!
But even so, even though almost everyone on the Lakers played their best, they still lost the game!

They lost due to Nelson's change of formation, Nate's sudden outburst, Lin Tian's unstoppable performance, and their own failure to widen the score in the early fourth quarter.

In short, they lost!
"What an incredible game!" After the game, when the Knicks began to bow out and the fans in the stadium frantically called out Lin Tian's name, Barkley said, "Both teams played at their best."

"Even the head coaches of both teams played at the best level of their respective careers. Whether it was arranging the troops or responding to each other's moves, the two head coaches fought back and forth!"

"Kenny, where do you think the Lakers lost tonight?" (End of this chapter)
