NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

"I don't need a rest." Compared to Brown of the Bobcats who was almost non-stop in making arrangements, Lin Tian of the Knicks set the tone for the fourth quarter with just one sentence.

I'm going to keep going! Keep pushing it to the maximum!

Bobcat, right?

It’s you who are being beaten!

Soon, amid the anticipation and waiting of all the fans, the fourth quarter began!
Players from both sides once again came onto the court.

The two guys who performed best in this game, Lin Tian and Felton, did not rest and they both stood on the court again.

Obviously, these two will play the entire second half tonight!

The first attack of the fourth quarter belonged to the Bobcats.

Felton dribbled to the frontcourt again, then drew a circle on his head with one hand. Then Okafor and Sean May, two inside players, came up at the same time and gave a high double screen, adding Lin Tian in the middle like a sandwich.

Felton changed direction and then jumped up and shot a three-pointer!

"Shh!"

After another crisp sound, the score difference between the two sides once again widened to double digits.

Excited Felton no longer thought about keeping a low profile and being calm this time.

He beat his chest frantically and roared in anger.

He had a great time playing tonight!
He felt that this was the most enjoyable night in his entire basketball career!
But just as Felton was beating his chest and roaring, Lin Tian had already passed by him like lightning!

It’s just a three-pointer, why be happy about it!
Lin Tian ignored him, caught the basketball, and then dribbled forward at a rapid speed!
Felton turned around quickly and wanted to catch up with Lin Tian!
Even though he was very clear now that his speed was not as fast as Lin Tian's, and he had lost the initiative and could basically only watch Lin Tian dribble and slam dunk on his own, he still tried his best to chase him.

Then, Felton was surprised to find that he was getting closer and closer to Lin Tian!

In the end, he even caught up to the point where the two of them were almost running side by side.

Am I that fast?

This idea emerged in Felton's mind, but time was running out and he had no time to think about it carefully, because Lin Tian had already jumped up on him. Felton had no time to think and could only jump with Lin Tian.

Then, he noticed the basketball in Lin Tian's hand. For some unknown reason, Felton slapped the basketball in Lin Tian's hand!

But at the critical moment, Lin Tian suddenly changed hands in the air and pulled the ball, and the basketball avoided Felton's block. Lin Tian lifted it with his other hand and then slammed it into the basket!
At the same time, Felton's hand also hit Lin Tian's arm!

"Shh!"

"Snapped!"

"Beep! Foul! 2 points valid, 1 free throw!"

Various sounds rang out almost at the same time, and Felton and Lin Tian landed at the same time.

“I did it on purpose.” Lin Tian glanced at Felton and shrugged to answer his question: “I let you catch up on purpose. Otherwise, with your speed, I can be faster than you even if I jump on one leg!”

This was the first trash talk Lin Tian hurled at Felton tonight.

Felton felt very honored. This proved that his efforts were noticed by Lin Tian, ​​and that Lin Tian finally looked at him seriously and regarded him as an opponent.

But the price Felton paid was huge.

His fourth personal foul and Lin Tian's another 2+1!

"Shh!"

After saying this, Lin Tian ignored Felton's thoughts, but walked to the free throw line and hit the ball steadily!

The Knicks' score deficit was once again reduced to single digits by Lin Tian!
The Bobcats' offense started with Felton again. He was also a little excited by Lin Tian's trash talk just now. He wanted to challenge Lin Tian one-on-one!
So he waved his hand to signal everyone to move aside, he wanted to give it a try!
However, Lin Tian didn't give him this opportunity at all!

Just when Felton raised one hand to signal everyone to move away, Lin Tian suddenly took advantage of this opportunity and rushed forward. The sudden increase in the defensive intensity caught Felton off guard, and the basketball in his hand was almost snatched away by Lin Tian!

In other words, Felton reacted quickly. Although he was a little embarrassed when Lin Tian came, he successfully avoided Lin Tian's cut ball with a behind-the-back dribble!
However, this was all he could do, as Lin Tian cut the ball more than once!
As if he had predicted that Felton would use behind-the-back dribbling to avoid his steal, Lin Tian's other hand had already stretched out before Felton's basketball reached his other hand!
This time, it was as if Felton had passed the ball directly to Lin Tian’s hands!
"Snapped!"

The basketball hit the center of the target and went straight into Lin Tian's hands. Then Lin Tian slapped the ball out, accelerated again, and rushed towards the front court!
This time, Felton did not catch up with Lin Tian.

This time, even though Felton turned around and ran quickly, he could only watch the distance between him and Lin Tian getting farther and farther.

"boom!"

Then, Felton watched Lin Tian rush into the basket and complete a slam dunk!

“See? This is the result after I accelerate at full speed.” After completing the dunk, Lin Tian looked back at Felton and said, “With your speed, you can’t even smell my fart!”

After these two consecutive rounds, Felton, who suffered two consecutive losses, quickly understood one thing.

The gap between himself and Lin Tian is even bigger than he imagined!
I played well in the first three quarters, not because I was good, but because Lin Tian didn’t play with enough intensity!
This idea was proven more thoroughly when he advanced in the next round.

Lin Tian started to press the entire court!

Felton suddenly found that he had lost his space, his speed, and his physical advantage!

He was almost chased by Lin Tian! He could hardly dribble and advance!

If Sean May had not stepped forward in time to give Felton a screen, helping him get a little space to successfully reach the frontcourt, even if Felton was not directly intercepted by Lin Tian, ​​he would most likely be forced into an 8-second violation by him.

terrible!

Even when Felton finally reached the front court, he could still feel his heart pounding.

Lin Tian’s defensive pressure is too strong!

That feeling was just like when Felton was 7 years old and secretly watched his father's gay video, but was discovered by his father and then beaten to the ground with a belt.

The strong feeling of oppression and suffocation made Felton feel that he was almost dying.

It's so scary.

After feeling the terrifying pressure from Lin Tian, ​​Felton quickly recognized himself and the reality.

This person is not someone I can deal with!

So for the next few minutes of the game, Felton no longer thought about high-risk activities such as personal offense or breakthrough passes.

He started to pass the ball when he dribbled to the frontcourt, and then gave the ball to his teammates when he got to the frontcourt, letting them handle the game.

Felton is honest!
For the next few minutes, he was almost invisible on the court!
This style of play caused Felton's statistics to stagnate. His shots, points and turnovers all stopped increasing. The number of assists did increase slightly, but that was because his teammates were in really good shape tonight and they could make shots repeatedly as soon as they caught the ball.

The problem was that Felton himself had completely disappeared.

He became a pendant dribbling downfield.

His extremely conservative and timid style of play does prevent him from making mistakes and losing face, but he also loses the opportunity to continue to perform well.

Being too quick to give up and too easily facing reality can sometimes allow a mediocre player to maintain his position in the league and stay in the league for many years, such as Charlie Ward of the Knicks.

But this mentality and style of play will make an excellent and potential talent lose their ambition, never be able to fulfill their talent, and then be slowly left behind by their peers. For example, Felton tonight.

At least these few minutes of the game showed why he was so talented but was quickly left behind by Deron and Paul.

The personality is too flat!
With Felton almost completely invisible, Lin Tian's outburst became more and more ferocious!
Breakthrough layup! Dunk! Mid-range jump shot! Foul! Pull-up shot from outside the 3-point line!
Lin Tian continued to show off his offensive skills crazily, leaving scars on the Bobcats again and again. His personal score increased rapidly. He constantly used his scoring and personal offense to destroy every player on the Bobcats and destroy all the common sense Brown had accumulated in nearly 50 years of contact with basketball.

He is unstoppable!
第四节比赛打到还剩下最后3分钟的时候，林天这一节比赛已经是15投8中，3分球5投3中，罚球7罚6中，轰下了25分！
At this time, he had already scored 88 points in the game!

Lin Tian broke his personal career record set against the Timberwolves that year!
He scored 80 points in a single game for the third time in his career!
It is also the second highest score in NBA history!

Moreover, Lin continues to break the record of scoring 80+ games in NBA history!
3 times!
And this time, his scoring journey is not over yet!

After all, there are still 3 minutes left until the end of the game!
Everyone believes that it will be no problem for Lin Tian to score at least 90 points tonight!

As for 100 points?
Probably!

Because the game has not lost its suspense yet!

The Bobcats were in great shape tonight! Even though Felton was completely invisible, the other players were still able to score.

The Bobcats withstood Lin Tian’s fierce bombardment and they held on!

131: 129!

Although they were overtaken by the Knicks, they were actually only 2 points behind!

Of course, judging from Lin Tian’s current condition, the Bobcats have not been left behind, who knows whether it is a blessing or a curse!

If they were pulled apart early, Lin Tian might have been eliminated with only 6-70 points.

But now, if Lin Tian fails, he will have to set a new record in NBA history for them!
At this time, Brown still had a frown on his face and his lips were tightly clenched. It was obvious that he was very nervous, so nervous that he didn't even notice that his lips were bleeding.

The old man now has only one thought in his mind.

Win this game!

If Lin Tian's outburst or even breaking the historical record is inevitable, then we must win this game no matter what!
As long as they win, this game won't be a shame! As long as they win, they can say that Lin Tian just scored points tonight and failed to help the team win!

But the question is, can the Bobcats do it?

The nervous Brown watched Felton dribbling to the frontcourt again. This guy who had lost his courage in the fourth quarter seemed to have suddenly regained his confidence at this time. He suddenly accelerated and broke through, rushing to the basket!
Felton, who had been playing with great restraint throughout the entire quarter, suddenly attacked at this time, which really surprised Lin Tian. He failed to block Felton's way in the first place, but he turned around fast enough!

Only a little time was wasted and Lin Tian had already turned around and chased after Felton!

Following Felton all the way to the basket, Felton forced a jump, pushing against Lin Tian behind him and Smith in front of him, and forced a high-arc layup!
This time, in order to avoid Lin Tian's block behind him and Smith's defense in front of him, Felton's shooting posture was quite strange. His entire shooting posture was distorted, and he couldn't even see the basket because of Smith's obstruction in front of him!

With a twisted body, the chance of hitting is naturally very low.

After Felton shot the ball, he felt that it was basically impossible to make it.

"Rebound!"

The only thing he could do was to yell and ask his teammates to grab the rebound and try to fight for the ball.

With so little time left in the game, he doesn't want to give up this round!

But, with accidents, you never know when they will happen.

For example, in this ball, an unexpected thing happened!
After Felton's basketball reached its highest point and began to fall obviously, a hand suddenly appeared in front of the basketball.

"Snapped!"

With a dull thud, Smith, with his terrifying physical fitness, slapped the basketball away!
But as he hit the ball, Barkley couldn't help but yelled, "Idiot! What is this guy doing? Is he giving points to the Bobcats?"

Everyone could easily see that it was almost impossible for Felton to hit this shot, and everyone could also see that the ball had started to fall, but Smith just slapped it!

"Ball interference! Ball interference!" the referee immediately shouted and gave a penalty.

An undisputed goaltending!
131: 131!

The Bobcats tied the game again!
Felton, who had been silent for almost a whole quarter, finally scored again! Even though this time the score was quite lucky, 2 points is still 2 points!
This is his fifth point in this quarter! With this interference ball, Felton has scored 5 points and 29 assists tonight!

In his entire life, let alone 29+18, he had never even scored 20+15 once before!
Both points and assists are career highs!

Tonight is also Felton's career night.

"Lin, I'm sorry, I..." Smith was very upset when he realized what he had done in excitement and couldn't help but want to apologize.

"Small problem." Lin Tian gave Smith a casual look and said, "It's only 2 points, just fight back!"

Yes, just 2 points, just fight back!
There are still 2 minutes and 40 seconds left in the game!

Lin Tian dribbled the ball easily to the frontcourt. Facing Felton, who had just scored 2 points with luck, Lin Tian suddenly changed his offensive method!
Instead of a simple and efficient direct dribbling breakthrough, Lin Tian suddenly started showing off his skills!

Continuous between-the-legs dribbling and large changes of direction, constant tentative steps, fake moves and suspended dribbling, the basketball seemed to have life, bouncing back and forth beside Lin Tian. Felton, who was defending Lin Tian, ​​was dazzled at the moment. He had no idea what Lin Tian was going to do or which direction he was going to break through!

too fast.

Felton had only one idea at this moment, why not just hug Lin Tian and send him to the free throw line, which would be better than being played around by him like a monkey.

Just when Felton wanted to commit a tactical foul, Lin Tian suddenly moved!
This time it was a real big move. He made an ultra-fast double change of direction in front of his body, allowing himself to get around Felton and gain a huge space.

Felton followed subconsciously, moving his feet sideways continuously to catch up with Lin Tian.

But at the moment he completed the lateral move, Lin Tian changed direction in front of his body and carried the ball to the other side!
Just with this one move, Felton's center of gravity shifted again, and Felton couldn't control his body at all!
His lower body wanted to stand firm, but his upper body wanted to move towards Lin Tian!
The complete disconnection between the upper and lower body made Felton's movements and image at this moment look quite funny.

And the pain he will experience this round is equally ridiculous!
The direct consequence of his upper body moving to the left and his lower body moving to the right was that his entire body almost left the ground and turned completely sideways in the air. Then he completely lost control of his body and his center of gravity, and fell heavily to the ground with a bang!

"Oh my God! This change in rhythm! Wonderful! So wonderful!" Barkley immediately shouted excitedly!

"This wasn't even a knockdown, this was a flying dribble!" Kenny followed up, "Lin Tian shook Felton so hard that he flew straight into the air! It's horrible! How can there be such a fast and crazy dribble and pass!"

While the two commentators were roaring with emotion, Lin Tian had already distanced himself from Felton, then he drew his bow and shot directly from outside the three-point line!

"Shh!"

After such a crazy and perfect shake, of course it must be matched with a silky goal! Otherwise, how can it be worthy of Felton's fall?
Felton is too pitiful that he just fell but was not included in the pictures and statistics such as "Top Ten Highlights of the Game" and "Top Ten Stumbles of the Season"!
After all, in those highlights, it is assumed that a goal must be scored!

So Lin Tian did this for Felton! It was also for Felton to be mentioned again in a few years!
"Look! The guy who was thrown sideways into the air by Lin and fell to the ground is called Felton!"

Everything is for Felton.

Felton: Thank you so much! It's not necessary! It's not necessary! I don't need this at all, man!
But no matter what Lin Tian and Felton thought, the ball went in, and the Knicks gained a 2-point advantage with 20 minutes and 3 seconds left in the game!

"Come back! Raymond! It's okay, come back!" Brown shouted from the sidelines. He wanted Felton to be confident! He had to make Felton have courage again!

Not only for the victory of this game, but also for Felton to truly grow up!
Hearing Brown's shout, Felton also imitated his head coach and bit his lips hard, as if he wanted to bite his lips until they bleed, and then dribbled the ball towards the frontcourt.

I haven't lost yet!
You hit a career high tonight, but tonight was also a career high for me, Felton!
Facing Lin Tian, ​​Felton once again started the continuous dribbling mode. While dribbling, he shouted at his teammates to come forward and cover.

Because this time, this guy didn't dare to raise one hand to make a gesture, he was afraid that Lin Tian would steal the ball again! (End of this chapter)
