This Forward is Not Serious - v2 Chapter 628
After returning from the Staples Center, Lin Ying’s ears echoed what Kobe said for a long time.
Basketball is a five-person sport, which is beyond doubt.
But when the gap between the strengths of the two sides is large, the only thing that can narrow the gap is personal performance.
We asked ourselves, has he played well enough in these two finals games?
27 points, 11 rebounds, 14 assists in one game, and 44 points in one game. If you change to other players, this is indeed good enough.
Even Lin Ying felt that he did what he could.
But it’s really not enough to beat the Lakers.
The Lakers have reached their peak in terms of strength and tacit understanding, and have not even been injured yet.
And the next game will be a life-and-death battle for the Nets, trailing 0-3? Unless the Lakers are injured, the Nets are likely to be swept.
……
James Mansion.
James smoked a cigar, listened to hip hop, and hummed and swayed along, feeling that he had reached the pinnacle of his life.
Lin Ying has ruled the alliance for so many years, so it should be buried in the sand.
As for what Durant is, he doesn’t even care about it.
Now everything is going according to what he wants most.
At this time, a very suitable lyric came from the speaker, and he put down his cigar and sang loudly:
“A great new era is coming, and it will shock the world!”
At this moment, Fu Paul knocked on the door and entered.
He reached out to turn off the music, then turned around and gave his good brother a big hug.
He can make a comeback in the Lakers, and with the current situation, rich Paul contributes the most.
If it weren’t for him, he wouldn’t have had the chance to team up with Davis, and none of this would have been possible.
The two sat down and chatted happily for a while.
However, it was at this time that a question raised by Rich Paul made James ponder.
“You have to play a bit more selfish in the later games, because only then can you get this fmvp, which is an indispensable thing for you to increase your influence.”
A champion is a crown, and fmvp is a priceless gem. It is inlaid on the crown to make the crown dazzling.
In the current situation, the numbers of James and Davis are on a par, and even Davis has the upper hand.
If the media really gave Davis the fmvp in the end, it would obviously not be the era of James, but the era of Davis.
You must know that Davis is the absolute darling of the American media.
And one thing that absolutely cannot be ignored is age.
James is 35 years old, but Davis is only 26 years old!
If you need to promote a native of the United States to become the new first man in the league, there is absolutely nothing wrong with choosing the younger Davis.
So James can’t let that happen, because if it happens, even if the Lakers succeed, he’ll have to take a back seat.
This is completely unacceptable to him, because then his business value will fall off a cliff.
For Kobe, power represented basketball strength, but for him, power was money.
“Actually, it’s very simple. You make a few more shots, or if possible, just use the same garbage time as before to get more points. You don’t need to really argue with ad.”
Rich Paul continued.
James nodded after hearing this.
He also wanted Davis to help him at work, and a falling out would definitely not be possible.
Then let him wear this jewel-encrusted crown and start the era that truly belongs to him!
……
After returning to Brooklyn, the Nets players noticed a detail, Lin Ying was very aggressive in training.
In the past, when training, Lin Ying would take into account the face of his teammates, and some **** that could be laid up would basically not dunk.
But after returning to Brooklyn this time, everything was just the other way around. He can dunk the ball and never make a layup.
Several members of the Nets team suffered from his ruthless dunks.
And more than that, Lin Ying even spat out trash talk to his teammates after the dunk.
These anomalies made the atmosphere of the Nets’ practice game from the previous relaxed to serious.
But no one complained, because they knew that they were now 0-2 behind, and Lin Ying’s actions were more like a spur to others.
If they don’t go all out, then all that awaits them is failure.
Lu also poured a big bowl of chicken soup for the players after training while the iron was hot.
“…This is our last game, we have to keep our home ground, we have no way out.”
Lu’s chicken soup is also very effective, and the team members are eager to try it.
“The only one we can rely on is you.”
After the team members disbanded, Lu Te went to Lin Ying’s side and patted his elbow meaningfully.
He was still thinking about how to cut into the chicken soup, but Lin Ying helped him today, and he could also feel Lin Ying’s firm belief in the game from it.
If there is a miracle, then this is a necessary condition for a miracle to occur.
Lin Ying nodded, then reached out and patted Lu on the shoulder:
“Relax, I’ll take care of everything.”
……
With much anticipation, the g3 of the finals kicked off in Brooklyn.
On the commentary stand of tnt, the Big Four gathered to comment on the game.
Barkley’s face doesn’t look very good. As the first Lin Bhui, the current situation of the Nets is very bad.
The game has not yet started, and they are constantly analyzing the situation of the two teams.
The probability of promotion will inevitably be mentioned, and then there is the issue of player performance.
“Even if the Nets lose the finals, Lin will get a vote from the fmvp with me.”
When talking about the performance of the players, Barkley was the first to express his opinion.
This sounded a bit mindless, but the other three just thought about it and didn’t refute him.
Although it is now assumed that Jerry West’s MVP will not happen again, but Lin Ying’s performance so far is indeed MVP level.
Of course, the other three are still rational. O’Neal thinks James should get this fmvp, while McGrady and Kenny Smith support Davis.
It can also be seen from the situation in the commentary booth that Davis has performed well this year, and he still has a very good chance.
They chatted about the same, and the starters from both sides also appeared one after another.
Both sides still use the regular lineup, the Nets: Caruso, Crabbe, Tucker, Lin Ying, Jokic;
Lakers: Paul, jr, James, Davis, Cousins.
Jokic beat Cousins in the jump, officially kicking off the game.
The Nets started with Jokic’s top-of-the-arc response. Lin Ying made a continuous counter-run and then cut to the basket. After receiving a pass from Jokic, he flew for a layup.
“King Kong Is Not Bad Dazhai Master”
Davis under the basket quickly assisted in defense, Lin Ying made a dodge in the air and then drifted under the basket, and then scored with a difficult backhand draw.
The ball instantly caused a burst of cheers from the scene.
Barkley couldn’t help but applaud from the commentary.
Lin Ying’s opening state sends a very positive signal!
In the Lakers’ offense, Davis directly backed Tucker for the ball in the low post, and after catching the ball, he turned and hooked directly to the bottom line.
His movements are smooth and decisive.
“Shh!”
Accompanied by a crisp sound of entering the net, the basketball fell steadily into the pocket.
Davis’s specialty is athletic offense, and this kind of low-post singles is not his forte.
But in this way, he can make steady progress, and his state in the finals is really good.
The Nets’ frontcourt position was the same, and Lin Ying also continued to catch the ball without the ball.
But this time, he was pinched immediately after catching the ball. He quickly scored the ball to Crabbe on the weak side, and Crabbe made a three-pointer.
The rhythm of this ball is very good. After the ball crossed a beautiful parabola in the air, it hit the edge of the basket with a “dang” sound.
This ball is a little out of luck!
James flew over and grabbed the long rebound, turned around and prepared to push the fast break by himself.
But just as he turned around, he felt his hand light up, and when he lowered his head, he saw that the ball in his hand was broken by Lin Ying!
Moreover, Lin Ying reacted very quickly after stealing the ball. He directly avoided Davis’ help defense with a jump and sent the ball into the basket.
There was a burst of explosive cheers at the scene.
Lin Ying is not only in good condition, but also extremely focused!
You must know that the ball in James’s hand is not so easy to break!
This time, Barkley on the commentary seat directly climaxed.
He also didn’t remember how long it took him to see Lin Ying playing so intently.
The formation of the Texas Twins has brought the Nets’ strength to an unprecedented level, but Durant’s departure has indeed awakened the link that fans were familiar with before!
Maybe many people are about to forget that Lin Ying is the record holder for the highest score in a single game in the NBA finals!
However, as soon as Lin Ying scored, Davis turned around and played a pick-and-roll match with Paul, then caught the ball and took a sideways step to pick up the basket to put the ball into the basket.
His state is not generally good!
This time, McGrady and Kenny Smith in the commentary are happy. After all, they are optimistic about Davis, and Davis’ performance in this section can be regarded as a face for them.
However, they were not happy for too long, because Lin Ying received the ball without the ball again, and after turning around, faced the high difficulty of pinching and shot back…
“Shh!”
Still hit!
The match against the Menglong team made Lin Ying realize the importance of the team, especially Jokic took the initiative to tell him to do more, and his style of play was still a team.
However, the communication with Kobe changed his mind. He was preparing to take advantage of it by himself!
The emotions of the fans at the scene were instantly filled.
Although Lin Ying has had three consecutive 50+ crazy performances when he fought Menglong before, what they saw tonight was not only about scoring, but also Lin Ying’s desire to play. Human pores are opening up!
Davis continues to be in the low position in the frontcourt. He is feeling hot now, and he is going to stage a battle with Lin Ying.
However, the next scene was unexpected. James also strongly reached out to Paul for the ball on the weak side.
Paul hesitated and gave the ball to James.
If it were someone else, he would definitely give the ball to Davis, who is in better shape, but that is James after all.
After James got the ball, he directly rushed to Lin Ying, and after rushing into the inside line with a tyrannical step, a strong layup was almost blocked by Lin Ying.
The ball came out of the basket at the end. He tried to take off again and grabbed the board, but he didn’t get it, so he turned around and spread his hands at the referee.
The Nets played a fast break at this time, Caruso rushed to the front court after receiving a long pass from Lin Ying, jumped up and dunked with both hands and smashed the ball into the basket!
The fans at the scene, who had been motivated by Lin Ying’s continuous scoring emotions, burst into hilarity right now. The huge noise seemed to lift the ceiling of the arena.
The Nets are about to take off!
Davis had just returned from the frontcourt to the backcourt at this time, and he looked at Paul helplessly.
If he continued to feed him the ball just now, he was at least 80% sure.
And don’t look at this as just one round, but the situation on the field has a great impact.
However, Davis is still young. In the next offensive round, James directly took the ball and advanced to the front court.
And when he got to the frontcourt, he directly signaled Cousins to pull to the top of the arc to play the pick-and-roll.
This is, Davis will not have the chance to ask for the ball!
Davis looked helpless.
What’s more uncomfortable than when you feel hot but can’t get the ball!
This time, James went inside through the pick-and-roll, fouled Jokic with his iconic three-step layup, and won two free throws.
Then, his first free throw hit the back edge of the basket.
It was at this time that Lin Ying, who was standing on the free throw side, noticed Davis’ expression.
It was a very constipated expression, and Davis didn’t even give James a high five!
James was stunned for a moment, but he didn’t care and continued with the second penalty.
Lin Ying arrived instantly.
It’s not that he reacts quickly, it’s that this has happened in history!
In his time and space, the champion of the park, after the first two games, James and Davis were almost as loud as fmvp.
But then James hit a quasi-triple-double and was finally elected to fmvp with unanimous votes!
That is, after the finals that year, Davis started swinging at a speed that fans could not understand.
History is always surprisingly similar!
And after getting to this point, he is more confident that the Nets will win tonight.
LeBron James and Davis aside, Paul and Booker have had similar incidents in history.
For most players~www.mtlnovel.com~ the jewel-encrusted crown is just like the Lord of the Rings in the world of “Lord of the Rings”, exuding an irresistible temptation.
Especially for Westerners who pay more attention to interests, fiction and reality are exactly the same.
Or to paraphrase the ridicule of the fans at that time: I’m not the champion of fmvp, don’t worry!
Lin Ying’s conjecture was also fulfilled in the following games.
In the first quarter, Lin Ying scored 21 points in a single quarter, but the Lakers were still at a stalemate with the Nets due to the performance of the bench link.
But starting in the second quarter, there was no chemistry between Davis and James at all, and the two played like two separate individuals.
The cooperation between the two that fans were familiar with before disappeared completely, and even Davis ran back and forth on the court most of the time!
Then the Nets beat the Lakers 35-17 in the second quarter, directly pulling the score to 20!
At this time, not to mention the fans at the scene, even the few people in the commentary booth were dumbfounded.
They watched the opening of the game, and they were all ready to enjoy Lin Ying’s 1v5 performance, but the Lakers were inexplicably destroyed.
The other members of the Nets were also a little confused, because this happiness came so suddenly!
