Chapter 560 He Is so Efficient and Team!
Barkley wasn't happy for long
Because after the first quarter of the game, Lin Yi made 5 of 8 shots, including 4 of 7 three-pointers and 2 of 2 free throws. He "only" scored 16 points in conventional operations.
Tonight the Rockets moved slowly inside, so Lin Yi chose to sanction them from the outside.
After all, it is Lin Yi's style to be reckless with a brain.
It is impossible for Asik and Patterson to defend against pick-and-rolls every time, and under the premise that they can use easier shots to resolve the battle, Lin Yi will not foolishly use sewer-style suicide attacks to attack.
After the first quarter, the Knicks led the Rockets 33 to 28, and on the Rockets side, Hu Zideng also contributed 13 points in the first quarter.
The poor boxing champion was fouled twice by Harden not long after the opening, and went down to wave the towel with Dayao.
The boxing champion's second foul was even more aggrieved than the first one, because he raised his arms under the basket and didn't move at all according to what Lin Yi said.
Of course and eggs!
You know, in the future, the league deliberately modified the rules of the game to prevent Harden from touching the porcelain, but even after the rules were changed, Harden's average free throws per game did not substantially decrease.
Facts have proved that there is no foul that Harden cannot make, and there is no three-pointer that Curry dare not throw, and there is no enemy that cannot become friends with Durant.
After the boxing champion went down, the Knicks replaced Dream Chaser Green. Although the game was a revisit of Yao's hometown, Lao De didn't want to take the risk of increasing Yao Ming's playing time.
Green's ability to protect the frame cannot be compared with Tyson Chandler, so the Rockets played by Xia Jiba and the Knicks played by Xia Jiba played well on the court.
Nicknamed "Refrigerator" McHale's coaching style will give players a lot of freedom, and the advantage of this is that the Rockets players who are under reconstruction, especially Harden, can quickly play confidence.
In the future, the Rockets will often lose some games that should not be lost, but they can turn over some games that are obviously behind by more than ten or twenty points, which is related to McHale's constant and changing offensive system.
McHale is obviously not as bad as Huo Mi complained about in the future, because if Scott was the head coach of the Rockets during this period, it would be difficult for Hu Zideng to grow up happily.
On tnt TV, during the break during the festival, O'Neill, who was nervous at first, felt that he had stabilized tonight.
Shark would fiddle with the mouthwash cup and toothbrush in front of him from time to time, obviously reminding Barkley: Dude, get ready to kiss the ass of the donkey!
Kenny Smith also specifically talked about Lin Yi's scoring distribution, "According to statistics, Lin scored the most points in the first and third quarters this season. Lin averaged 7 points per game in the first quarter, and in the third quarter Averaged 8 points per game
Kenny Smith's words were like pouring cold water on Barkley's face. "Flying Pig" knew what Kenny Smith meant, that is, Lin Yi obviously played normally tonight, and it was difficult to have a normal operation. A record breaking opportunity.
Because Lin Yi's playing time is likely to be excluded in the fourth quarter, even if Lin Yi goes berserk in the third quarter tonight, it is impossible to break his own record of 86 points in a single game.
As for 50 points, 60 points?
Sorry, that wasn't part of the O'Neal-Barkley bet.
It's just that Barkley, who is distressed that there is not much time left for himself, obviously forgot that there is more than just scoring on the basketball court.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Lin Yi sat on the bench and bled as usual. Tonight's game between the two teams was fast-paced. D'Antoni, who had begun to be obsessed with rotation, didn't want to kill Lin Yi in this game.
And Barkley's bet with O'Neal has nothing to do with D'Antoni.
McGrady and Yao Ming played at the same time in the second quarter,
Although Livingston yelled that he was as tough as Lin Yi in the new season, Lao De still kept Livingston in New York during this trip to the west.
Livingston: I've really built a steel frame!
Lao De: Hold back milk yourself! have a good rest!
At the Toyota Center, watching "Yao Mai" wearing the Knicks jersey at the same time, many Chinese Rockets fans in front of the TV almost burst into tears
What made the hot honey even more heart-wrenching was that shortly after the second quarter, D'Antoni replaced Chasing Dream Green with Battier.
Hot Honey: Too much! md, cry for me!
Lao De: I just rotate normally. Besides, who made the old Rockets so good?
Tonight's Houston completely defected.
Although Dayao can no longer attack the Knicks like he was at his peak, and McGrady, who is trapped by his waist strength, can no longer be as aggressive as he was at his peak, but when the two passed the pick-and-roll, McGrady assisted Yao Ming When scoring, the thoughts of the Rockets fans on the scene seemed to be pulled back to the era that belonged to Yao Mai
At Toyota Center, Yao Zhisong is playing again!
After Dayao contributed the most precious 10 years of his career to the Rockets, for the Rockets fans, there is only blessings when they say goodbye.
Maybe the fans are sometimes narrow-minded, but most of the time, the fans are the cutest group in the world.
Hu Zideng, who is sitting on the bench resting, is useless even if he is envious, because this is a feeling.
However, the Rockets played pretty well off the bench tonight, although Lin Yi didn't understand what tactics the Rockets were able to play
Rockets: Come on everyone, hey, can you vote? Then I voted! Anyway, this wave is not bad!
There is one thing to say, in fact, the strong team is very afraid of the weak team playing like this, because the weak team can really force you to 50-50 if they play well one night.
50 to 47, after six minutes in the second quarter, the two teams adjusted their main lineups one after another, and the Rockets still maintained the pressure on the Knicks.
As soon as Hu Zideng came up, he made a foul for Clay, who stayed on the court in the second quarter.
At this time, Barkley suddenly felt that he seemed to be saved!
Because of this posture, it's hard to say that Lin Yi can play in the fourth quarter tonight?
O'Neal also reacted, so he still complained about Harden's sharks at the beginning: "If free throws are excluded, James made 1 of 7 shots tonight."
Barkley responded to O'Neal and said: "I scored 15 points in 7 shots. Doesn't this mean that James is very efficient?"
It's a pity that Hu Zideng on the court couldn't hear this commentary that seemed to change his face, otherwise Harden would definitely ask them: Which side are you two on?
On the court, the Knicks attacked, and Clay started his crazy running. Harden, who did not use the "Sharingan" tonight, followed up. However, just when Harden wanted to praise his defense
He bumped into Lin Yi's big elbow!
This is the classic elevator screen of the Knicks. Lin Yi and the boxing champion came out one after another to form a wall for Clay. Seeing that Clay ran out of space, Patterson, who wanted to prove that he was very defensive, rushed towards Clay. .
Patterson: Did you see that, if it wasn't for my brother's defense
Patterson was not happy for long, because Paul did not choose to pass the ball to Clay, but to Lin Yi.
Harden hadn't come to his senses yet, only to see Lin Yi take a step back in front of him and then pull out his hand!
Swish!
Lin Yi scored his 19th point tonight!
53 to 49!
Harden was aggrieved and complained to the referee that Lin Yi had just elbowed him, but the referee ignored Harden, because from the referee's point of view, Lin Yi's cover action just now was very standard, and it was obvious that Harden himself was short
"Beautiful, Lin's fifth three-pointer tonight, his condition is really good!" Barkley said.
O'Neill's face sank again, but this time Barkley was still not happy for long
Because after halftime, Lin Yi's score stayed at 22 points.
Watching Lin Yi passing the ball and making walls for his teammates time and time again on the court, Barkley thought to himself: Damn, isn’t your idol Kobe? Shoot! Vote yourself! Pick off the pass button!
"Lin is really in a good state tonight. You know, in my mind, he is so efficient and team!" During the intermission, O'Neal said with a smile on his face.
ps: The third update!
