Chapter 374 Shocking Through the Mountains!
When the whole world was praising the Knicks, the Knicks quickly used their actual actions to distinguish a wave of "true fans" from "winning fans"...
They tied the Rockets' 22-game winning streak, and lost to the Pistons, Pacers, and Bobcats in the next three games.
The Knicks have lost three games in a row.
"The bull's record is indeed a devil!"
Lin Yi's remarks are not because the Bulls' record of 72 wins and 10 losses is too difficult, but because the Knicks' 22-game winning streak has caused the Knicks players to swell.
You know, it is a terrible thing for the whole team to dig up the tree between A and C.
Although everyone said before that the record is not important, the championship is the real thing, but even Lin Yi secretly thought about the possibility of breaking 72 wins and 10 losses.
It’s as if you saved a bag of potato chips for the game, and you keep reminding yourself to wait until the game starts, but the urge to open it early is still in your mind.
After all, once the Bulls' record is broken, it will be a famous story through the ages.
It's like the Future Warriors have been saying that we don't care about records, those are not important.
But if it's really not important, Curry and other main players will go into battle with injuries to fight for the next game?
To put it bluntly, the temptation to record is too great. When a beautiful woman appears in front of you naked, why not talk about it later?
Of course, the Knicks' losing streak came unexpectedly, but Lin Yi will not doubt the strength of his teammates as the media worried, because even if Gallinari and Livingston are absent, this Knicks team is still very strong .
The season of the NBA is dense and long, and those famous kings in history also cannot guarantee that they will not lose a game.
Because various factors such as fatigue and mentality may bring about different results of the game.
However, through this wave of losing streak, Lin Yi found that Lao De had really changed.
It wasn't Lin Yi who said this, but Donaldson, the Knicks' assistant coach.
After the road loss to the Bobcats, Donaldson looked at D'Antoni seriously: "Mike,
you've changed! "
D'Antoni: "???"
If anyone in this Knicks team has been suppressing his desire, D'Antoni will definitely do his part.
Because D'Antoni has always insisted on rotation during the loss, can you believe it?
If it was in Lin Yi's previous life, would he be sprayed to death by a bunch of people if he said it out?
But D'Antoni is really making a difference.
This change originated from Lin Yi.
D'Antoni left Phoenix as a loser. No matter how much he fought with the Spurs in the playoffs in those years, winning is winning, losing is losing. Winners and losers are the true portrayal of competitive sports.
Many Olympic champions are very popular, but many who did not win the Olympic champions...may set up street stalls on the street every day in guerrilla warfare with urban management.
When he first arrived in New York, the mess left by the "Smiling Assassin" could only make D'Antoni accept the reality of the mess.
You have to know that apart from those coaches selected by the team to "take the blame", there is really no head coach with a certain reputation who is willing to be bad.
Winning percentage and winning games are the points, rebounds and assists of these coaches in their coaching careers.
Although the Knicks were eliminated by the Celtics in the Eastern Conference semifinals last season, D'Antoni would be laughed out of his dreams during the offseason.
Is it because he won the best coach for the second time?
No, it was because of Lin Yi's growth.
ESPN conducted a survey, why can Lin Yi conquer picky New York fans? It even allows New York fans to pat their chests and say, even if we have salary space, we don't necessarily want such arrogant words from James?
The response from New York fans was highly unanimous: Maybe when you ask this question, you should buy a ticket to a Knicks game at Madison Square Garden.
Of course, New York fans will not be so conceited that Lin Yi has surpassed James, but the positive atmosphere that Lin Yi brought to the Knicks, the gorgeous style of play, the gorgeous transformation from the bottom of the Eastern Conference to the third in the Eastern Conference... ...
He gave the Knicks fans the most important thing in the dark.
Candles... oh bah, hope!
So the closer to the second half of the season, the more D'Antoni is controlling his passion.
Adhere to the rotation and ensure physical fitness, we will definitely be able to break out of the East!
If Chris Paul's obsession is the floor of the Western Conference Finals, then for D'Antoni, he really wants to see the finals stage.
Historical record?
Don't worry, this Knicks team will grow, and we still have opportunities in the future.
Lin Yi is indeed immortal, but his physical fitness also needs to be guaranteed.
However, D'Antoni didn't know at this time that his change of hand would play a vital role in the future Eastern Conference decisive battle.
...
Spike Lee, who is filming Lin Yi's 10/11 season documentary, also had concerns about the Knicks' prospects during the Knicks' three-game losing streak.
But soon, Spike Lee found that this Knicks team was different from the previous Knicks.
Spike Lee experienced the Knicks in the Ewing era. He saw the scene of Van Gundy speaking on the sidelines...
He has also seen Ewing's sad face, and the cruel and cold hero's end......
But what about the Knicks now?
The style of painting is wrong!
Because of the documentary, Spike Lee also got permission to enter and exit the Knicks training hall. Whenever he brought the filming team to the Knicks training hall, he saw the players training with smiles on their faces.
D'Antoni rarely tells the players that we must win this game, and if we lose again, we have no way out.
"Don't focus on winning or losing, our focus is not on the regular season."
Especially Lin Yi, who is the star of the Knicks, rarely puts on airs with his teammates during training.
Even many times, when the whole team formed a group to "bully" Lin Yi, Spike Lee would ask the filming team to turn off the equipment silently.
"Lin, didn't you guys start the post-match summary meeting or discuss why you lost recently?" Spike Lee looked up at Lin Yi and asked curiously.
Lin Yi replied with a smile: "Why do you think about the game that is over? It should be summed up. The coach has already said that we didn't play well. What we need is not to remember the past, but to look forward."
look ahead.
Look towards the highest stage that symbolizes glory.
What the Knicks need is not to adjust their tactics or change their style of play.
Most of the season has passed, and everything that needs to be adjusted has been adjusted. These "funny comparisons" will not lose the chain at the critical moment. Lin Yi believes in these teammates, because they have proved it in the past two consecutive victories. Own.
For the Knicks, what they need to adjust is their mentality.
Don't think about the temptation of the record, the temptation is beautiful, but the Knicks have more important things to do!
On March 12, at Madison Square Garden, when the fourth quarter between the Knicks and the Hawks was zero, Barkley's big mouth was like a machine gun and shot those Lin Hei and Nei Hei who had begun to look down on the Knicks in the past week them.
76 to 126, the Knicks beat the Atlanta Hawks by 50 points at home!
Lin Yi played 29 minutes in the game and made all 12 shots, including 4 of 4 three-pointers and 5 of 5 free throws. With 100% shooting, he scored a game-high 33 points, 16 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 times blocks.
"Don't forget, they are number one in the league!" Barkley's words resounded loudly, because the Knicks, with 55 wins and 9 losses, still lead the league.
"When the tiger is napping, the monkey always thinks it is the king of the forest, but when the tiger wakes up, a roar is enough to shake the forest!"
