NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

"Snapped!"

What awaited Parker was a crisp sound!

He had just taken the layup when someone behind him slapped his ball onto the backboard.

Then Parker completely lost his balance and fell to the ground in a mess.

After lying on the floor, Parker saw who had just blocked him from behind.

Lin Tian!

This guy dodged Duncan's cover and rushed straight to the inside!

If he hadn't been distracted just now, Parker believed that he would never have been blocked by Lin Tian's sneak attack!

But even though Parker was hit on the board, the Knicks were unable to launch a fast break.

Raja Bell entangled Lin Tian for the first time. He was almost hanging on him tightly, with his arms and legs all entangled with Lin Tian. This guy's defense was no different from a dog-skin plaster!
At the same time, Lin Tian couldn't help but sigh, although this guy's defense was a bit dirty, with a lot of physical contact, and he also liked to attack the opponent's lower body, but this guy was indeed smart!

He can tell the difference in scale, and his movements are completely different when he is defending at home and away!
He can clearly test the referee's bottom line and standards.

His defensive level will also change with the changes in the referee's standards.

Moreover, if the referee does not blow the whistle on this move, then his next move will definitely be bigger! His next defense will definitely be more fierce!

He will never restrain himself, let alone relax, unless the referee blows the whistle.

Just be more ruthless!

Although he looks gentle and refined on the outside, this guy's style is to be more aggressive than his opponents!

The other players of the Celtics retreated as soon as possible, and while retreating, they each found the Knicks player they needed to be responsible for and completed the man-to-man defense as soon as possible.

A textbook retreat!
This is also the Celtics' strongest weapon.

Their defense is truly textbook-like. Even the Pistons back then never made it so difficult for the Knicks.

They really couldn't use their full strength and always managed to choke the Knicks, preventing them from making the quick transitions they wanted. Everyone would be taken care of at the first moment, making it difficult for them to find easy open opportunities.

"You're still such a bastard, boss!" Parker quickly got up from the floor and retreated to defend. Then after Lin Tian passed the midfield, Parker and Bell didn't need to communicate at all. They had a tacit understanding and completed the switch naturally.

The Celtics are well aware of Bell's strengths and weaknesses! They know that Bell's defense is easy to be targeted and easy to be fouled by the referee.

Especially when facing an extremely smart guy like Lin Tian, ​​it is absolutely possible that Bell would be called for 5 fouls in 3 minutes!

Therefore, in this series, unless he has to, Bell will never defend Lin Tian during regular time.

His defense against Lin Tian would be reserved for the last quarter and the most critical moment of the game.

Therefore, most of the time, Lin Tian plays against Parker.

"How am I a bastard? I blocked your shot and you call me a bastard?" Lin Tian smiled and waved his hands to direct his teammates' movements. At the same time, he continued, "Aren't you a bit too much?"

"I'm talking about Eva!" Parker tried to be as relaxed as possible, putting on an indifferent expression as if to say, 'I knew you were joking.'

Then he waited nervously for Lin Tian to speak.

But Lin Tian ignored him.

It was as if she didn't hear him and she just ignored him.

FUXX!

Please speak!

You are capable of texting with people, but you are not capable of reviewing the details!

Parker felt like his head was about to explode, but he had to stay rational and couldn't yell at Lin Tian.

He knew that if he cared too much and lost his composure, he would lose and would be fooled by Lin Tian.

I don't care! I don't care at all! I have to pretend I don't care!

Parker tried his best to give himself psychological hints, to calm himself down and act as if he didn't care.

Looking at Parker's superficial acting skills, Lin Tian really had to try his best to hold back from complaining: What, do you think you haven't been fooled now?

However, Mr. Lin was a kind-hearted man. He knew that exposing Parker at this time would make him extremely embarrassed.

So he chose to be quiet, and then suddenly made a fake one-handed dribble. Parker, who was a little excited, immediately stretched out a hand to steal the ball, but Lin Tian took advantage of the situation and dribbled behind his back, passing Parker in the blink of an eye!

Then accelerate, stop suddenly, and take a mid-range jump shot!

"Shh!"

2 point hit!
The other members of the Celtics didn't expect Parker to be beaten so thoroughly and so easily. They were unable to assist in defense in time and could only watch Lin Tian score the goal.

"Tony, what did you say just now? Sorry, I didn't hear it clearly. Can you say it again?" After Lin Tian scored the goal, he looked at Parker with a smile.

Parker had seen this expression on Lin Tian's face countless times when he was working with Lin Tian.

He had seen with his own eyes Lin Tian say those heartbreaking trash words with a similar expression time and time again, and then beat his opponents and lead the Pacers to victory.

Parker just thought it was funny at the time.

He would think: That's it? His mentality is broken? He can't stand it anymore? He is defeated?

Vegetable dog!

But when time changed, when Lin Tian used this trick against him, Parker finally realized how lethal Lin Tian's trash talk was!
Compared with the regular season and the playoffs, the increase in intensity is not limited to physical confrontation, the verbal and mental confrontations are also extremely intense!
Anyway, this time, Parker began to experience a different intensity.

My heart feels as if it's being scratched by a cat!
Then, Parker was completely beaten to a pulp by Lin Tian!

Of course, the fact that Lin Tian beat up Parker has nothing to do with how upset he felt or whether Lin Tian spoke trash or not.

It's normal to explode.

Parker felt extremely disgusted at this moment!
Because Lin Tian just didn't answer him, and Lin Tian just stopped talking about this with Parker!
Not a word, not a word!

But Parker wanted to save face, so he couldn't ask, and he didn't dare to ask!
He knew that asking would be tantamount to surrender.

But whenever Parker thought of Lin Tian's romantic affairs, the fleeting romances between Lin Tian and countless Hollywood beauties, the girls that Lin Tian brought to the hotel every time, and the girls who still couldn't explain themselves to him.

Plus Lin Tian's overwhelming attraction to the opposite sex, if the two really had text messages and private communications...

Parker told himself that it was nothing, but he couldn't help but recall all the details.

About the legend of Lin Tian’s time, about the legendary size he had seen with his own eyes.

Then, Parker couldn't help but think of the expression of enjoyment and satisfaction that Eva had every time she was with him.

all fake?

Are they all lies?
Acting?

The more Parker thought about it, the more confused he became and the more worried he became.

The result was that in the entire first half of tonight's game, he only scored 7 points with 1 of 2 shots and also made 3 turnovers.

He played terribly!
But until the end of the first half, Lin Tian didn't talk to him even a little bit about Eva.

The topic disappeared as if it had never appeared.

But the good news is that even though Parker was completely undercover in the first half of the game, the Celtics were not left behind by the Knicks. They were only 5 points behind the Knicks!
The Celtics were able to avoid being left behind in this situation thanks to their twin towers in the interior!
This night, Howard and Duncan once again stood out and demonstrated their strong dominance in the interior!
They continued to use their height to successfully suppress the Knicks and had an absolute advantage in rebounding.

Howard even got a double-double of 10 points and 10 rebounds in the first half of the game, including 5 offensive rebounds alone.

而邓肯则是半场比赛拿下17分7篮板4助攻3抢断5盖帽的完美数据！他在篮下一次次的强攻和他精准巧妙的分球，是凯尔特人队进攻端最可靠的武器！
His rebounding and rim protection abilities make him the Celtics' strongest line of defense!
Tonight, Duncan once again proved that all the praise he has received over the years is well deserved!
In addition, Bell suddenly appeared. This guy was in great form tonight. He fired continuously from the left and right corners. He scored 3 points with 3 9-pointers in the first half. His 3-pointers also made the Knicks dare not double-team Duncan, so Duncan had plenty of space to score points. In the absence of double-teaming, no matter whether it was Okur or Stoudemire, or Smith who came off the bench, they were all sent to waste against Duncan!

In other words, Duncan's playing style is not like O'Neal's mode of destroying everything, otherwise this guy would have no problem scoring another 10 points in the first half!

Thanks to the outstanding performance of the twin towers in the interior, the Celtics were not left behind!

As for the Knicks, the best performer is undoubtedly Lin Tian!
他今晚半场比赛就14投8中，3分球3投3中，罚球5罚全中，拿下了24分6篮板7助攻的全面数据！甚至前四场中他时不时就因为凯尔特人的防守陷阱而爆发增长的失误也在今晚被他控制住了。

0 turnovers in the first half!

Lin Tian’s performance in the first half tonight was perfect!

His score is still the highest in the game, and he is still the most handsome guy tonight!
But even though Lin Tian performed so perfectly, he was unable to lead the team to gain a clear advantage. This is enough to show how outstanding the Celtics' performance was tonight!

"At this point in the game, I think everyone can see who the two key players are." Barkley said: "Although they are completely out of position and cannot be matched, tonight is a head-on duel between the two of them!"

"Duncan VS Lin!"

"Let's see what kind of performance these two can put in tonight!"

Kenny quickly followed up, "At least in the first half of the game, I can give full marks to both of them! There is nothing wrong with either of them! Both of them are versatile and can dominate the game on both offense and defense!"

"Lin made Parker, who was on his opposite side, shoot 7-of-1, while Duncan made the entire Knicks team score only 10 points in the restricted area!"

"The playing styles of these two players are completely different! Duncan is stable and calm as ice, while Lin's playing style is passionate and unrestrained like fire! This game is a duel between ice and fire! Let's see who will lead the team to the finals!"

Barkley also smiled and said: "Today's game reminded me of the time when Lin led the Pacers to the 33-game winning streak record."

"At that time, Duncan was still in the Spurs. Their team took on the responsibility of sniping the Pacers and preventing them from breaking the historical record! They were the last barrier. I remember that was the 32nd or 33rd game on the Pacers' winning streak."

"When that game started, David Robinson hadn't retired yet! In that game, both sides tried their best. Duncan scored a career-high 54 points at the time and had more than 20 rebounds."

"Lin even scored 59 points, a near triple-double!"

"In that game, the Spurs couldn't stop the Pacers. They became part of history. They became part of the first winning streak in history."

Kenny also said: "What I remember more clearly is actually the matchup between the two sides two years ago! The Eastern Conference semifinals, Lin's first year with the Knicks."

"Anthony and Stoudemire were both very young at the time. They were completely unable to adapt to the intensity of the playoffs. Howard next to Duncan was also very young, but at the time, he also had Pierce and Marbury by his side."

"The Celtics' more mature, experienced and balanced advantages gave them a 3:1 lead. They are almost ready to advance to the divisional finals!"

"But then, they were defeated by Lin's complete explosion! Lin led them to three consecutive wins! Among them, Lin's decisive shot in the seventh game, I think it is one of the top five important decisive shots in NBA history!"

“An excellent round of competition!”

"This round of games is not bad!" Barkley said with a smile: "This round of games may very well go to a tiebreaker, or even go to the last second, with the winner decided by a decisive kill!"

"I am looking forward!"

While reviewing the exciting confrontation and battle between Lin Tian and Duncan, the two commentators couldn't help but look forward to this round of series.

This round of series is currently tied at 2:2!

Next, who will have the last laugh?
This is definitely something that the entire alliance is extremely concerned about!

But before that, both sides have to finish the game first!
In the second half of the game, the two sides changed sides and fought again!

The first to launch the attack were the Celtics!
As soon as Duncan came on the court, he asked for the ball in the low post and used his footwork advantage to successfully beat Okur. Not only did he make 2 points, he also caused Okur to foul!

2+1!

Standing on the free throw line, Duncan was as calm as ever. After taking two deep breaths, he raised his hand and made the free throw!

Anthony turned around and rushed into the inside with the ball, trying to challenge Duncan, but was rejected by Duncan with a bloody block in the face!
Then the Celtics started a fast break!

Parker advanced quickly with the ball, then passed it to Josh Howard in the middle. After Josh Howard advanced to the inside, he passed the ball to Bell on his side without looking at anyone. After Bell got the ball, he did not stop and knocked the ball back to the middle. This time it was Duncan who received the ball!
Duncan held the basketball with one hand, then jumped up suddenly, raised the ball high with one arm, and smashed it towards the basket!
"boom!"

After a loud bang, Duncan not only succeeded in dunking, but also successfully caused Barnes who was defending under the basket to foul!

Another 2+1!

Duncan did not disappoint the fans of North Shore Garden. After making a steady shot from the free throw line, he scored 6 points and 1 block at the beginning of the second half, leading the team to successfully reverse the score!

The atmosphere in the North Shore Garden was ignited by him in an instant. The already crazy noise and waves of the fans in the stadium escalated again. The fans were almost screaming at the top of their lungs and shouting completely crazily!
The syllables they made were no longer like the sounds made by humans. They were more like wild beasts, making bursts of hungry roars and howls!
Then?

Then in less than 10 seconds, Lin Tian rushed to the Celtics' hinterland with the ball, then once again pulled up from mid-range, made a quick stop jump shot, and threw the ball out.

"Shh!"

With a crisp sound, Lin Tian scored 2 points! The Knicks regained the lead!

Lin Tian's goal was like a huge silencer, which directly reduced the noise level of North Shore Garden by at least 2 levels!
Lin Tian clearly felt the noise reduction, so how could he let the Bostonians go so easily?

He arrogantly raised his palms to his ears and performed his signature move.

The booing is too quiet, I can't hear it!
You guys have to work harder!

Lin Tian's provocation caused the Celtics fans to once again burst into deafening boos. They directed all their passion and anger towards Lin Tian!
Only then did Lin Tian put down his arms with satisfaction and began to focus on defense!
Moreover, the confidence and enthusiasm of the Celtics fans to curse quickly soared again after more than ten seconds!

Because Duncan got the ball in the low post again, but this time he did not force the shot himself. Instead, after noticing that it was Stoudemire who was defending him, he made a prompt decision and suddenly threw the ball into the air the moment he got the ball.

Howard on the other side jumped up immediately, pressed Okur, who was much less physically fit than him, to get the basketball in the air, and then pressed it into the basket!

Fierce! Extremely fierce!

After Howard scored the goal, the Celtics took the lead again. He showed his fangs excitedly and roared at Okur!
Of course, Lin Tian would not let his friend suffer like this. In the next round, he played pick-and-roll with Okur. After the two men crossed each other at the top of the arc, Lin Tian hit the ground ball to Okur, who immediately jumped up and made a decisive shot from outside the three-point line!
"Shh!"

You have your natural strength, and I also have my own superb touch!
I'm not afraid of you!

In the remaining game of the third quarter, both sides completely unleashed all their potential. They were tit-for-tat, and neither team gave in. They fought back and forth, just for the difference of a few points!
They are all like soldiers and heroes guarding the country's land on the battlefield, fighting for every inch of land, not giving up even a single inch, and would rather die than surrender!

Both sides entered into a deathmatch mode on the court ahead of time!
The core of the deadly battle between the two sides is, of course, Duncan and Lin Tian!

These two people perfectly took on the responsibility of leadership in this section!

Personal offense, passing, organization, directing teammates' movement, huge influence on the defensive end, assisting defense, reminding teammates to pay attention to marking...

The performances of both of them were perfect in this section!

Under the leadership of the two perfect leaders, the other players of the two teams did not give in at all, were unwilling to hold their leaders back, and gave their all!
If you are good at attacking, then attack; if you are not good at it, then defend; if you can't defend, then bite; if biting doesn't work, then use your head to hit the opponent's elbow to force the opponent to hit you!
The game in this quarter made everyone's blood boil and completely raised everyone's adrenaline!

Even Parker stopped having those random thoughts in the first half and was completely immersed in the game!

But the problem is, he wants to get into the game, and Lin Tian doesn't like this!

So with 20 seconds left in the third quarter, after Lin Tian made a layup under the basket, he once again targeted Parker.

"Tony, did I forget to tell you what Eva texted me earlier?"

?

Parker's eyes opened visibly wider. He was originally full of passion and was fighting fiercely and tenaciously, but now he seemed to be suddenly poured with cold water. He calmed down in an instant, or was stunned.

This is the opportunity!

Lin Tian suddenly rushed forward and snatched the basketball from Parker's hand!

Parker's daze lasted only a blink of an eye!

He was just a little dazed after hearing the name of his beloved.

But this time, Lin Tian caught him! He successfully stole the ball!

There were 16 seconds left in the third quarter and the Knicks were leading by 81 points, 79:2!
Lin Tian pressed his hand down and said, "Don't worry, stay calm, we will fight to the end!" (End of this chapter)
