NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

After being double-teamed, Bell passed the ball quite quickly to Parker in the corner!

And Parker in the corner is completely ignored at this moment!

It's not that the Knicks' defense has problems.

It was old Nelson who let him go on purpose!
Who made this guy play like a war criminal tonight and is the Celtics' biggest undercover?
Letting him go is old Nelson’s plan!
Otherwise, given the Knicks' defensive tacit understanding and ability, if they try to defend all four Celtics perimeter players, there will most likely be problems, and in the end they might even miss the most accurate Ginobili or Bell!

Parker, who was left out, raised his hand and shook it, then he couldn't help but shiver. His shooting was so bad tonight that he didn't dare to shoot!

And the more the Knicks let him go, the more hesitant he became.

"Damn it!" Then two voices came from both sides of the court at the same time.

Duncan and Lin Tian both asked him to shoot at the same time!
Logically speaking, although Parker's shooting is not good, it is actually not that bad.

The hit rate is still over 30%!

But at this time his hands were shaking. This guy didn't shoot, but dribbled through, went to the inside and made a layup against Stoudemire who just opened his hands to deal with it!
After all, Stoudemire's task is to prevent the opponent from playing 2+1, not to defend the opponent's offense, so Parker's move was quite easy!
"Shh!"

This goal was scored!

But it doesn't help!
It took the Spurs 10 full seconds to score a 2-pointer, and they were still 5 points behind!
And then, more serious problems occurred!

The first thing Stoudemire did after Parker scored was to quickly grab the basketball and retreat to the baseline. Then this guy exerted force with one arm and slammed the ball to the frontcourt!

"Hurry up and serve the ball from the baseline! Oh my God! The Knicks, at this time, actually dare to play like this? Crazy! Too crazy! Aren't they afraid of mistakes, and are they not afraid that a mistake will ruin the efforts of the entire game?"

Old Nelson: I'm not afraid of anything! I'm leading by 5 points, I'm not afraid of anything! Forget 5 points, even if I'm only leading by 1 point...

If we were leading by one point, we would of course still be afraid.

But now it’s 5 points, no worries! It’s very stable!
Stoudemire's pass was faster than that of all the Spurs players. The basketball almost flew to the frontcourt and into the hands of Lin Tian who was sneaking down. Lin Tian hugged the basketball and without wasting time, he started directly and slammed the ball into the basket with one hand!

When he made this shot, Ginobili, the fastest player on the Celtics, had just reached his own three-point line!
They completely misjudged the Knicks' style of play, completely wrong!

They thought that the Knicks would most likely call a timeout after scoring a goal, and even if they didn't, they would serve the ball steadily and then advance slowly to waste time.

But who could have thought that old Nelson was so powerful?
"In this round, Nelson completely crushed Rivers in both offense and defense! His defensive and offensive arrangements were perfect! He used two ways that no one expected to deal with the Celtics!"

Kenny said sincerely: "I can only say that Old Nelson is indeed a 'mad scientist'. He is a complete lunatic! But don't forget that this guy is also a scientist who can invent all kinds of tactics! Tonight, he is simply Einstein!"

In the two rounds of back and forth between the two sides, a total of 12 seconds passed, but the difference between the two sides was still 7 points!
This means that the last 12 seconds were completely wasted.

Not only did the Celtics waste 12 seconds, they also wasted a timeout!
Victory is getting further and further away from them!

Rivers didn't call another timeout afterwards.

He only has one left. If he calls now, he won't be able to adjust next time.

So Rivers decided to play it safe! He wanted to trust his players for once!

The Celtics kicked the ball out from the baseline again, and Ginobili dribbled quickly to the frontcourt.

The Knicks still used the same defensive stance, with four players standing outside the three-point line in a double team defense, and Stoudemire preventing the opponent from stealing the ball under the basket.

Of course, given the current situation, there is no point for the Celtics to steal the ball.

Ginobili quickly came to the frontcourt, then faked the ball and forced a 3-point shot against Ariza's defense!
This is not a good opportunity, but there is not enough time left for the Celtics to find a good opportunity!
"Boom!"

There was a muffled sound, and the Celtics missed a 3-pointer. Stoudemire jumped high, and before Duncan touched the rebound, he slapped the basketball out to the outside!

This time he took the photo very skillfully.

Not using full strength.

Because Stoudemire knew that his players were all inside the 3-point line, and the Celtics players were outside the 3-point line. If he shot the ball lightly, his players would have a higher chance of getting the rebound!
Xiao Si won the bet!
The person who got the rebound was Smith. Smith, who was aware of his free throw level, was afraid of being fouled by the Celtics, so he immediately gave the ball to Lin Tian.

When Lin Tian got the ball, there were only 30 seconds left in the game!

30 seconds, 7 points difference, the Celtics players looked at each other and chose to stand still.

There is no need to fight!
After Ginobili missed the 3-pointer and they failed to grab the rebound, the suspense of the game was gone.

Another tactical foul?

That's just helping the Knicks score points!

No need!
With a few more free throws, Lin Tian will score 60 points!

Not worth the candle!

Therefore, neither side fought for the remaining time of the game.

The Knicks used up a full 24 seconds, and the Celtics quickly served the ball, and then when the time was up, the whistle sounded to end the game.

The game is over.

They tried their best, Duncan gave everything, and everyone else fired every bullet they could.

But they still lost this one.

They still failed to defend their home court and failed to win the decisive battle.

2: 3!

The Knicks successfully got the match point, and they are only one step away from advancing to the finals for the second consecutive year!

The next game is at their home court!
They will not be like the Celtics and lose at home and miss such a good opportunity.

Before this game, the odds that the bookmakers offered for the two teams to advance were about 40:60.

Knicks 4, Celtics 6.

Who let the Celtics have the home-court advantage and swept the Knicks three times in the regular season?

But after the game was over, the odds of the bookmakers suddenly fluctuated greatly. 8:2.

The Knicks doubled directly!
This pretty much describes how everyone feels about this series right now.

That's all.

The Knicks have basically secured their promotion!
Although the Celtics also broke through the Knicks' home court and won an away game in this series.

But everyone just didn't believe that Lin Tian's team could lose such an emergency battle at home after winning the decisive game.

This is word of mouth!
The reputation that Lin Tian has gained after his stable performance over the years!
Everyone trusts him and believes that he can handle it.

In fact, Lin Tian will not let everyone down!

In the sixth game of the series, the Knicks did not give the Celtics any extra opportunities or thoughts.

They took the initiative from the beginning of the game and they took the lead from the very beginning of the game!
Of course, the lead was not large, but they held on to it firmly, and like a frog in boiling water, they slowly widened the gap and secured the victory!

The Knicks only led by 3 points in the first quarter, and they only led by 5 points at the end of the first half.

At the end of the third quarter, they were only leading by 9 points!

By the fourth quarter, the score was narrowed to 6 points!
In the end, the Knicks only won by 6 points!

Throughout the game, the Knicks led by more than 1 points only once, and that lasted less than 10 seconds before the Celtics narrowed the gap to single digits again.

But although they were unable to widen the score gap and were unable to completely pull away, the Knicks played with complete dominance tonight!

They didn't lag behind for even a second!

Even the two sides only had 30 seconds to tie!
The first 30 seconds!
Ever since the Knicks scored their first goal 30 seconds into the game, they have maintained the lead throughout the game!
It lasted for a full 47 minutes and 30 seconds!
The Knicks' ability to control the game, their grasp of the situation, and their stable and fierce offense were fully demonstrated in this game!
They just let you Celtics attack as violently as you can and score as many points as you want, we don't care!
Because we can get more points!
Because all the players on the Knicks firmly believe: No one in this world knows offense better than us!
"We are the kings of the alliance's offense!"

Relying on absolute control on the offensive end, the Knicks successfully defeated the Celtics at home!
But at the same time, the Celtics' resilience and hard work are definitely worthy of respect!

One team is always behind, one team can never get ahead, they can never gain the advantage, they can never catch up with the score!
Many times, they were just one step away from making a comeback, and many times, they were just one round away from overtaking, but they could never do it!
The suffocating feeling and huge pressure of always being chased from behind can easily make a team give up the game or even collapse.

But the Celtics didn't!
They chased the game for 47 minutes and 30 seconds with all their might, and even tried a desperate three-pointer in the last 10 seconds of the game, hoping to make up for the score difference!
But they could never do it. Tonight, they were just that little bit short. Until the end of the game, until the whistle sounded, they were unable to overtake!

When the whistle sounded to end the game, Duncan, who played the full 48 minutes tonight and scored 39 points and 19 rebounds, seemed to have lost all his strength and collapsed directly to the floor. He covered his face with his hands and did not move for a long time.

Lost! Lost again! Lost to Lin Tian again.

This time, it was just a little bit! I was so unwilling! It was so uncomfortable!
But it seems like I really can’t beat him!

Duncan lay on the ground, feeling extremely upset.

This is his tenth season since his debut.

In the blink of an eye, I’m almost 31 years old. I’m not young anymore!

But apart from reaching the finals in his second year and losing to the Knicks, he never got close to the championship again.

He always seems to be unable to win, and always seems to lose for various reasons.

It’s so uncomfortable!

"Yo Tim." After lying on the floor for an unknown amount of time, a very funny voice came: "Are you crying? Do you need a tissue?"

"I didn't cry." Duncan moved his arm away from his face and looked at the guy who had given him such a painful defeat: "It's just a loss, there's no need to cry."

"You cried!" Lin Tian pointed at Duncan's face and said, "I can see the traces of tears!"

“That’s fucking sweat!” Duncan straightened his upper body, looked at Lin Tian and cursed: “I’m not crying!”

"I just cried like a fucking horse!"

"I just didn't cry! Are you done yet? Fuxx! Besides, I lost the game, so what can I do even if I cried?"

“Not a big deal.” Lin Tian said with a smile: “At most I can advertise everywhere: I beat Tim to tears! Like this…”

Lin Tian looked around and suddenly shouted, "Hey Tony! Guess what! I beat your boss and made him cry! Look at Tim, he's crying!"

"Shut up, you bastard! You'll go to hell sooner or later!" Duncan cursed Yi and raised his hand to rub Lin Tian's head, but unfortunately, Lin Tian dodged it again: "Don't you like others touching your head?"

"I don't like you touching my head." Lin Tian looked at the magical hand with lingering fear and said, "But this seems to be the first time I heard you swear, it's quite strange."

"You really never stop talking! You really annoy him." After losing the game, Duncan seemed to have a lot to say. It seemed as if his chatterbox was finally opened. What he said to Lin Tian tonight might be more than what he said in the past few years combined.

"Okay, I wish you good luck in the next round and I wish you win the championship." Duncan stretched out his hand, indicating that he wanted to hug Lin Tian.

But Lin Tian just gave him a fist and bumped fists with him.

Lin Tian still doesn't like hugging men, and can be said to be quite resistant to it.

Lin Tian's resistance made Duncan quite embarrassed. He cursed again and turned around and wanted to leave.

"Hey Tim, maybe you hate me, but I still have to tell you something." Seeing Duncan was about to leave, Lin Tian coughed and said, "I believe the future belongs to you!"

"The future is mine?" Duncan rolled his eyes and said, "I am less than 3 years younger than you. Unless you retire immediately, where is my future? Join you?"

"Ahem. I said it wrong. I meant." Lin Tian scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and then said: "Don't let loyalty hurt you! Choose the path that suits you best!"

"Loyalty has never hurt me! No, loyalty has never hurt either of us." Duncan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Both of us have played for three teams."

"Loyalty really didn't hurt you, but you hurt loyalty." Lin Tian saw that this famous scene was actually useless, so he could only fight back immediately: "Every time before I transfer, I leave a championship for my former club. Every time you transfer, what do you leave for your former club?"

“Maybe it’s because of missing me?” Duncan rolled his eyes and thought for a while, then gave an answer that made him laugh. Then Duncan patted Lin Tian’s shoulder heavily and said, “I’m leaving. I still say that. I wish you win the championship!”

This time, Duncan really turned around and left the court without saying anything more or talking nonsense.

He wants to go home and have a good rest.

But of course, before going home, he has to attend his last press conference of the year! (End of this chapter)
