Chapter Nine Hundred and Eighty Nine Quick, Come Out and See the Gods!
In the fourth quarter of the game, Green was responsible for defending Lin Yi on the Rockets side.
Although Lin Yi has changed from chasing dreams tonight to a fucking basketball dream, but compared to Tucker and Capela whose mentality has been broken, at this moment, McHale can only defend Lin Yi. This task was given to Green.
Of course, the Rockets will not just watch Lin Yi break the record. After all, in the NBA, no one wants to be a background board.
So, at the beginning of the fourth quarter, when Paul completed the dribbling task and was about to hand the ball to Lin Yi, I was stunned...
Before Lin Yi could catch the ball, Ariza and Tucker rushed towards Lin Yi at the same time, completing a three-person encirclement of Lin Yi!
Three-teaming is not new in the NBA, as many players have been treated this way.
For example, O'Pang, who was sitting in the commentary booth tonight, when this shark was at his peak, he often encountered three people in the low post.
It's just... Lin Yi encountered three people's pincers without the ball, and Lin Yi can be said to be unprecedented.
On the Rockets' bench, McHale was also very helpless about this, because he knew very well that this might be the only way to prevent Lin Yi from breaking the record and let the Rockets end the game decently.
McHale chose to let Harden rest in the fourth quarter, firstly because Harden played the first three quarters tonight, and secondly to protect Harden's last self-esteem.
After all... The Rockets' defensive strategy is tantamount to disarming in advance.
Because, the other four Knicks... now it's four on two.
McHale knew that if the game continued tonight, the probability of the Rockets coming back was less than one in 10,000, and there was a high possibility that they would assist Lin Yi to break the record.
That being the case, it's better to be more ruthless, after all, people are not ruthless and cannot stand firmly.
However, as a team aiming at the playoffs, or even the championship, McHale can't change to a substitute team and surrender, right?
Therefore, it was McHale's last resort to take a frenzied three-person attack on Lin Yi in the fourth quarter.
Because it is also an admission of defeat, but such public opinion can't spray rockets.
ha? Is it unreasonable for the three Rockets players to choose to flank without Lin Yi?
Heh, what's unreasonable about this, we are admitting Lin Yiniubi, so we can only defend him like this, can't we?
As for the rest of the Knicks blowing us up?
That's none of our business, we've worked hard to prevent Lin Yi.
To put it bluntly, a team battle can be lost, but Lin Yi must die.
Lin Yi's state tonight, even the well-informed McHale scolded his mother in his heart.
Facing the Rockets' playoff-level defensive strength, Lin Yi didn't make sense at all when scoring points.
To be honest, it's not that the Rockets haven't played against the Thunder. This season, in the two confrontations with the Thunder, the Rockets' defensive monsters managed to kill Du Xiaoshuai.
McHale wanted to cry.
Of course... In fact, Lin Yi didn't expect that he would be so fierce tonight.
Before the Nigerian fire battle, what Lin Yi thought most was to beat Harden up.
However, the state is coming, it can't be stopped!
On the court, Lin Yi, who was attacked by three people, did not panic at all.
Paul also didn't start to organize immediately, after all, as far as my cannon's overall view is concerned, he won't lose sight of his teammates who are in the open position.
However, my current cannon is a licking cannon.
Lin Yi, who was confronted by the rocket strongman lock male, used his position to get rid of Ariza,
Then, with the cover of Clay and Portis, he successfully found a one-on-one opportunity with Green in the high position.
Paul, with sharp eyesight and quick hands, hurriedly sent shells to Lin Yi, and Lin Yi did not dare to hold the ball for too long after receiving the pass. After dribbling lightly and taking a step back, Lin Yi decisively sniped and shot from the flank.
Chasing Meng didn't dare to throw the ball too hard, because he was afraid that Lin Yi would make a foul.
However, to be honest, this pursuit of dreams has already given enough pressure.
Because Lin Yi even deformed his movements in order to gain time when shooting.
But so what?
Swish——!
78 points!
At the Toyota Center, more than 20,000 fans at the scene reported in unison.
Indiscriminate throwing and indiscriminate entry are probably talking about Lin Yi's state tonight.
On the sidelines, Rockets coach McHale spread out his hands, as if asking: Do I see God?
GOD Lin's performance is still going on.
Toyota Center, after scoring the 78th point, in order to help Lin Yi break the record, the Knicks also started the final big move.
How could the Knicks have no countermeasures for the strategies that the Rockets may adopt in the fourth quarter?
And the countermeasure is also very simple.
That is... Lin Yi, don't come back to defend.
Just stay in the frontcourt honestly!
On the court, after Beverly dribbled the ball across half court, Beverly, who was supposed to give the ball to Green to organize, froze in place.
Because... chasing dreams didn't keep up.
Beverly took a closer look before noticing...on the court, the Knicks were playing four-on-four in the halfcourt!
Lin Yi did not retreat, and Green did not participate in the attack.
Penguin Sports, Director Zhang Reasonable said with a smile: "This is a tactic that we usually only see when we play wild ball."
Yang Yi nodded, "I suspect I'm watching football... But basketball doesn't say that the ball is offside. Does Green want to play the goalkeeper?"
Director Zhang rationally shook his head, "As a goalkeeper, he can't stop Lin Yi."
The Rockets' offense was easily completed, because the Knicks didn't even think about defending.
After Ariza scored a layup for the Rockets, Jokic picked up the basketball and ran to the baseline in a hurry, and then followed it with a quarterback-like long swing!
In the Rockets' half, no matter how fast the other four Rockets retreated, they couldn't outrun the basketball. Although Chasing Dream was close to Lin Yi, Lin Yi still took advantage of his height to receive Jokic's shot. Remember the long swing.
One-on-one is much easier than one-on-three.
After using a back turn to wipe Green, Lin Yi cut to the basket and successfully scored two points.
80 points!
If Lin Yi scored two more points, his nagging 81 points would be squeezed out of the top four in the NBA single-game scoring list!
It's insane... Knicks play like that.
But McHale couldn't blame the Knicks...
Because McHale knew that if Lin Yi could score more than 100 points in a single game, who would remember this afterwards?
What's more, the Knicks can find an excuse for this tactic.
ha? Are we helping Lin Yi brush data?
No, we didn't, we were just trying to break the rocket's three-man flank.
So why don't you pass the ball to someone else to score?
Cut, that's because we are all CBA teammates, and the Knicks have always been Lin Yi's single-core team.
And Knicks than the lower limit? That's probably the same as Kobe Bryant.
On the court, the Rockets' offense was easily completed again.
McHale had already seen through the Knicks' intentions.
I'm afraid that even if the Rockets don't need a three-man team, the Knicks will do the same.
After all, before the start of the fourth quarter, McHale told the players that they must look like James when attacking, and never pass the ball without organizing for 23 seconds.
However... when the offensive opportunity is in front of you, how can you miss it as a professional player?
The Knicks only use four people to defend, just to facilitate the Rockets' offense.
Of course, this style of play can only be used on the basis of the Knicks leading and the Knicks' great trust in Lin Yi.
Otherwise, the Rockets really turned it over, and the Knicks would definitely be sprayed to death afterwards.
To put it bluntly, the Rockets want to delay time, and the Knicks are also trying to make them unable to delay time.
The Rockets want to kill Lin Yi, but in turn, the Knicks are also thinking about how to protect Lin Yi's development.
On the court, when McHale scolded D'Antoni for being shameless, Lin Yi successfully scored his 83rd point tonight!
Another long throw from Jokic, Lin Yi once again used his height advantage to receive a pass, and then turned his face.
Chaimeng, who used to be Lin Yi's younger brother, has been sealed in the LOGO area.
But......
Hollow into the net, that's how you have no friends.
"83 points!" TNT TV station, Barkley is also counting for Lin Yi.
Still 17 points away!
Lin Yi is only 17 points away from breaking Chamberlain's record!
