NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Deron didn't talk trash to Lin Tian this time. He couldn't defend himself! He had completely calmed down.

It was normal that he couldn't defend Lin Tian! Who had ever defended him in the past ten years? The important thing was to be able to fight back on the offensive end!
After arriving at the frontcourt, Deron quickly called for a screen, and this time two people came directly!
Al-Farouq Aminu and Mason blocked Lin Tian on both sides at the same time. One of the Hornets' signature tactics now, the high-post double screen is here!

Faced with the help of two teammates, Deron did not rush to accelerate, but first observed and judged Lin Tian's choice, and then suddenly accelerated past Mason. Then Mason also quickly cut inside, and Al-Farouq Alan retreated and bounced outside the three-point line.

Lin Tian stood in front of Deron at the first moment and did not lose his position at all, but the defense of Stoudemire and Okur had huge loopholes again. The two of them walked in at the same time and went to follow Mason, completely missing Al-Farouq Aminu.

Deron's pass arrived in an instant, and the unguarded Al-Farouq Aminu took a glance outside the three-point line, then jumped up and threw the ball!

"Shh!"

After a crisp sound, the Hornets finally broke the scoring drought and got 3 points!
And Al-Suwaidi also scored his third field goal and first three-pointer of the night!
"Yes!" Alian clenched his fists excitedly and celebrated.

Although he is now a starter, he is very clear that at least half of his starting position is brought to him by the huge Chinese market behind him, and his position is not that stable.

In the final moments of many games, Scott would let Chandler play with one big and four small players on the court, and let Al-Farouq Aminu sit on the bench, which is one of the best evidences.

Now, Al-Suwaidi must fight for his position in the team!

Every time he scores a key goal, it is an important improvement for him!

Deron was also generous with his praise. He slapped Yi Jianlian on the butt and shouted, "Just do it, kid! Just do it! The basketball will always reach your hands, go and destroy them!"

Deron's pride only lasted for 3 seconds.

Because he had just returned to his own half, Lin Tian ran towards him.

This time, Lin Tian still didn't get the ball.

Needless to say, it’s time to sit in Deron again!

After running all the way to his favorite waist position, Lin Tian turned around quickly, holding Deron with one hand and reaching for the ball with the other hand. Then, the moment he got the ball, Lin Tian suddenly turned around in the same way as before.

Deron reacted this time.

He then moved sideways quickly, trying to block Lin Tian's turn.

But when he moved out, he helplessly discovered that he had been fooled again!

This time, Lin Tian's turn was a complete fake move! He only twisted his head and shoulders in this direction for a moment.

Then, just as Deron reacted, Lin Tian had already turned in the opposite direction and took another jump shot.

"Shh!"

The basketball hits again!

"Excellent! A post-up singles game that is like a work of art! Lin's post-up skills are really perfect!" Barkley shouted excitedly: "Lin only dribbled the ball once for each of the two scores! He only dribbled the ball once in each attack and was able to completely leave Deron behind!"

"Incredible skills, amazing feints!"

"Kenny, Gary." Miller also said with a smile at this time: "You two are masters of post-up singles. If you were facing this ball, what would you do?"

"Give him a punch and let him shoot free throws." Payton curled his lips and gave a way to prevent Lin Tian from scoring directly.

"Stop talking nonsense. You dare to punch Lin? You dare to punch him? This is definitely the funniest joke I have heard this month." Kenny immediately mocked mercilessly: "Even if Lin clearly told you that he would not fight back or retaliate, and let you punch him."

"Gary, without bragging, do you dare?"

"Kenny! Don't embarrass Gary. We are all good friends. What good will it do you to embarrass him?" Barkley said, trying not to laugh: "We all know that no one dares to touch Lin. At least no one in this league dares to touch Lin."

"It's not shameful, Gary. You're not as good as Lin. It's not shameful that you can't beat Lin." Miller also said, "Even Tyson can't beat him. Isn't it normal that you can't beat him?"

When several people in the studio were bullying Payton, Deron had found another opportunity!

Still the high post double screen, still Al-Farouq Aminu and Mason.

And this time, the Knicks' defense once again had its signature loophole.

This time, both Stoudemire and Okur rushed out and looked for Al-Farouq Aminu outside the three-point line.

Mason under the basket was missed this time.

Deron's high ball flew towards the basket immediately, and just when Mason rushed to the basket and took off, it came over his head. The former dunk champion Mason held the basketball with both hands, and then used all his strength to slam the ball directly into the basket!

"boom!"

After a loud bang, the Hornets continued to chase points!

"Nice dunk, Dyson Made!" Deron stretched out his arms again to cheer on his teammates. In terms of momentum, Deron has never lost to anyone!
Well, this momentum only lasted for a few seconds before disappearing.

Everything still has the familiar taste and familiar recipe.

Lin Tian once again rushed to the waist position and blocked Deron with his back to the ball.

The basketball immediately came into Lin Tian's hands.

This time, before Lin Tian even started dribbling the ball, the Hornets took the lead in changing their defense.

Alian is here to double-team!

This was obviously the tactic that Scott had just shouted on the sidelines. Al-Farouq Alan ran very fast and came to Lin Tian's side with open arms.

But this kind of double-team is really useless for a star of Lin Tian's level!
Although Stoudemire was followed by Mason under the basket, Wells was also beside Anthony.

But if you double-team here and fill in the position on the strong side, there will definitely be a huge open opportunity on the weak side!

Lin Tian didn't even think about it, and suddenly made a one-handed pass behind his back, throwing the ball like lightning to the 45-degree three-point line facing him.

Standing there is Okur, who is temporarily unguarded!

Lin Tian's pass was so fast that the Hornets players had no time to rotate and fill in the positions. They could only watch Okur receive the ball, aim, and then shoot leisurely!
"Shh!"

After another crisp sound, Okur made a three-pointer and the Knicks continued their plan to widen the score.

Then, the Hornets' offense finally ran into problems. When Deron wanted to play double screen again, Lin Tian yelled in advance: "You have to yell for me when you are defending! Whether you switch defense or not, no matter what you want to do, you have to let your teammates know!"

"If you make another low-level defensive mistake, get out of here!"

His reminder made Stoudemire and Okur finally show their tacit understanding on the defensive end this time. They did not miss anyone and filled their positions.

And Deron couldn't get rid of Lin Tian's defense, he could only pass the ball to Jackson, letting Jackson dribble and force a shot against Wallace!
But Jackson is a standard shooting guard. He has the shooting accuracy of a No. 2 position and the height of a No. 1 position. At the same time, as he gets older, his physical fitness has obviously deteriorated.

Now, Jackson can easily outsmart smaller guards, or shoot as soon as he receives the ball or look for opportunities while running.

But you let him hold the ball and play one-on-one against Wallace, who is much taller than you and has great physical fitness?
All I can say is: 95% of Jackson's energy has to be used to avoid being blocked. As for scoring goals, Jackson doesn't have the energy to care about that anyway.

Just throw it away and leave the rest to God.

God: Go to hell, you bother me with all kinds of shit every day, I can’t take care of that!

"Bang!" With a dull sound, Okur grabbed the rebound and threw it to Lin Tian. Lin Tian dribbled the ball all the way to the frontcourt at a very fast speed. Even though the Hornets had super mobility and maneuverability in their current lineup, they returned to the defensive position almost immediately. But when did Lin Tian see the opponent's defensive formation?

After pausing for a moment outside the three-point line to observe the situation on the court, Deron immediately rushed up.

Who in the league today doesn't know the horror and stability of Lin Tian's 3-pointer?
So when he saw Lin Tian pause, Deron immediately ignored everything else and quickly stepped forward to block him.

This one step forward immediately made Deron lose all his defensive position.

Lin Tian’s speed is really too fast!
Just as Deron moved, he also moved!
Lin Tian lowered his center of gravity, hit the basketball, and rushed into the inside!
At this time, Yi Jianlian was the only one in the entire Hornets' inside line. The young man certainly would not choose to dodge at this time. He turned around and opened his arms.

But that's all Alian can do.

The physical fitness and bullet speed that he was proud of were completely unable to help him at this time. Lin Tian's momentum was too terrifying!
Just when Al-Suwaidi bent his knees and prepared to jump, Lin Tian was already in place.

He has already jumped high with the ball in both hands, and forced Yi Jianlian to the ground, leaving you no chance to jump and block him!
"boom!"

Then, there was a loud bang like a rainbow, and the basketball was slammed heavily into the basket by Lin Tian with both hands!
"Welcome to NBA, A-Lian! I hope you can fall in love with this league!" After scoring the goal, Lin Tian patted A-Lian's butt, turned around with a smile, and started to return to defense.

This goal can be considered as Lin Tian’s gift to Al-Suwaidi.

At the same time, Lin Tian was merciful.

He did not push his impact force to the extreme, nor did he rush towards Alian with all his might.

Otherwise, with Lin Tian's previous playing style and current weight, if he attacked with all his strength, there would be no way that Al-Farouq Aminu could still stand on the floor after he dunked.

He will definitely be beaten to pieces by Lin Tian.

Lin Tian would still give some face to his younger brother.

You have a kind heart!
"Oh! Lin gave his compatriot a perfect Christmas gift! I think this scene will become one of the most indelible moments in Yi's future career! He will be mentioned again and again!" Kenny smiled and said, "I hope he likes this gift!"

"What if you don't like it?" Barkley started to make trouble.

"If he doesn't like it, I think Lin will give him something else." Miller said, "It will definitely be more fierce than this one, so God bless, I hope this boy likes this gift."

"This young man is pretty good!" Just as the three were discussing, Payton suddenly exclaimed.

Because UAE scored!
Deron's forced one-on-one jump shot missed. After the basketball bounced high, Al-Farouq Aminu suddenly rushed into the inside, jumped behind Stoudemire, grabbed the basketball with both hands and slammed the ball into the basket!
"boom!"

After a loud bang, Al-Farouq Aminu retaliated with a tip-in, proving that he was not a wimp!
The only pity is that after dunking, this guy just clenched his fist excitedly to celebrate.

There was no exaggerated celebration such as jumping up and screaming, beating the chest, or jumping up and down.

Without the unbridled celebration, this goal would have been a little less interesting.

Who told you that A Lian is not Lin Tian?

Mr. Lin is no longer at the age where he needs to rely on exaggerated celebrations to attract attention.

Now, Mr. Lin’s main focus is on status, which is enough. Whatever he does is right and everything he does is awesome!
After Yi Jianlian's dunk, the next few attacks by both sides finally started to miss shots, and they no longer scored goals in a crazy series like they did at this moment.

In the next few minutes, the efficiency of both sides began to decline slowly, but the score difference between the two sides did not change much.

The gap has been hovering between 10-15 points.

The coaches and players on both sides are obviously dissatisfied with this situation!
The Hornets want to catch up to 5 points, and the Knicks want to extend the score to 20 points. Now both sides are still far from achieving their goals!

So with 2 minutes left in the first half, old Nelson called a timeout again.

"That's terrible!" The old man's face was rarely gloomy, because the score difference had returned to 10 points again.

In the past few minutes, they were actually at a disadvantage by the Hornets.

Although it was because Mason and Wells, two guys who were not good at it, each shot a 3-pointer and made a 6:0 wave, old Nelson was obviously still quite dissatisfied with it.

"Today is Christmas, you bastards are going to force me to curse, right? You have to let me curse you so hard that you can't even eat the turkey at the Christmas dinner, right?"

"If you really don't want to celebrate Christmas, if you really think you can win this game just by playing casually, then you bastards really disappoint me!"

"Yes, I never ask the team to play defense. In the past few years, 90% of our attention has been on offense! But have you forgotten that I said everything will be different this season, we will start to change, and we will start to pick up defense."

"You have all forgotten about these things, right?"

"Otherwise, how do you explain that Deron can break through our defense again and again with a high double screen? How do you explain that as long as Lin doesn't remind you, you can't do a clear defense? Is this really that difficult?"

"Is alcohol, drugs, women and shit all you can think about? You can't remember anything I said, can you?"

"If you keep playing like this, great! I tell you, after Lin leaves next season, we will immediately fall at an extremely fast speed and turn into a pool of mud and a pile of garbage!"

"Bullshit!"

"At that time, all the honors you have won, all the honors you have received in the past four years will be taken away."

"They will say: Without Lin, you are nothing. Without Lin, you are just a bunch of damn cockroaches and garbage. They will say, without Lin, you are just a bottom-tier team and scrap metal!"

"If you don't want to be treated like that, and don't want to be seen as a loser who just got the championship, then cheer up! Cheer up, understand? Show me all the stuff we learned during training!"

"Yes! Coach, we understand!" At this time, Stoudemire was the first to stand up and expressed his determination to old Nelson.

"You don't need to understand. Just sit on the bench and watch! You don't even have to play in the first half. Just watch!"

"Shut your mouth! Did I allow you to laugh?"

Nelson suddenly exploded at Anthony because he saw the corners of Anthony's mouth began to rise, obviously gloating and laughing at Stoudemire.

Old Nelson's anger suddenly ignited!
"You're the same as him, so you better sit down right here! Do you think what I just said was directed at everyone? I was just targeting you two idiots!"

"The mistakes made by the other three people combined are not even half as many as the mistakes made by you two! You two were just dragging the team down! Can you tell me who missed those two 3-pointers? Were you two bastards just daydreaming on the court and each missed one?"

"Let me tell you, who will be the leader of this team after Lin retires! My grandma! My grandma will be the leader of this team! Because even she knows what responsibility is and what a leader should do! She raised seven children by doing the most difficult and cheap physical work!"

"And you two bastards didn't even bother to defend a damn 3-pointer!"

Old Nelson was particularly angry tonight. After yelling at Anthony and Stoudemire, he looked at the others who were in silence and said, "Josh and Tver, you two should replace Melo and Amare."

"Defense! In the last two minutes, I have to defend! If you have listened carefully to and practiced what I taught you this season, you will know what to do! Stop the Hornets' half-baked offense!"

"If you get beaten by this level of attack, then you are really disappointing and terrible!"

"Remember, in the last two minutes, my goal remains the same, 2 points! I want you guys to be 20 points ahead of the Hornets!" Old Nelson said this, and once again glanced at the crowd coldly, then stretched out his hand and said: "Our goal is..."

"20 points!"

The three starters and the two players who were chosen by Nelson to replace Stoudemire and Anthony shouted at the same time, and then the five of them turned around and walked onto the court at the same time.

The last 2 minutes of the first half are about to begin! (End of this chapter)
