Chapter 118 Lin Crazy!
The Knicks beat the Cavaliers at home, and Lin Yi said after the game, "I don't play for show off, but for glory", which soon became a hot topic of discussion.
"I agree with Lin's point of view! Playing to show off is something that high school students will do." Kobe Bryant said in an interview.
"Glory is always what every basketball player pursues. We practice hard day after day, not just to please the fans. I like Lin very much. I think he is a great player." Kevin Du Rand said.
"Of course, never underestimate the heart of a championship. We are here to play for the final championship." Celtics captain Pierce said in an interview.
"Cool! You know, he played with me in the NCAA. It's a pity we didn't make it to the end, but I think Lin is a player who is far underrated. Believe me, he has more competitive spirit than anyone else." ’” Warriors rookie Stephen Curry said.
"He is right, we will work towards the championship next." LeBron James said.
The Knicks fans are now making the Knicks executives very distressed, because Lin Yi's No. 44 jersey is selling so well, and the jerseys of the rest of the team combined are not as much as he alone. I can continue to work overtime, and now Lin Yi's jersey can only be ordered, and it is completely unavailable in the market!
Happiness is sometimes a very troublesome thing!
Chinese fans even started various discussions on the Internet. Lin Yi's agent, Zhong Muchen, is too busy. It's too scary. Lin Yi's popularity is too scary. It's only a few games. Popularity skyrocketed like a rocket.
With all kinds of endorsement negotiations, Lin Yi is simply a cash cow!
...
On November 8, the Knicks played back-to-back against the Milwaukee Bucks.
In this game, the Knicks' perimeter teams were collectively inaccurate.
But the Bucks on the opposite side are tougher than them...
After the two sides alternately hit the iron, the Knicks relied on the efficient pick-and-roll cooperation between David Lee and Lin Yi to beat the Bucks 88-80 in the away game and achieved 5 consecutive victories since the start of the new season!
Knicks fans burst into tears, 5 consecutive victories!
A real 5-game winning streak!
When was the last time the Knicks started with a five-game winning streak?
Countless Knicks fans began to recall a long time ago, and some older fans said with emotion: "That was all ten years ago."
Although not a 5-0 start, the last time the Knicks won five consecutive games in the first ten games was in the 1993/1994 season!
Fifteen years ago!
At that time, many young fans were not born yet!
It's unbelievable. Last season, they were the third-worst team in the league. This season they have become a strong team in the playoffs.
What makes the Knicks fans even more happy is that Lin Yi was elected as the player of the week in the second week of the Eastern Conference!
In the second week, Lin Yi averaged 21 points, 9.5 rebounds, 7.0 assists, 2.5 blocks, and 1.0 steals per game, leading the Knicks to a 4-0 victory in the second week!
The American media called Lin Yi "Lin Crazy"!
It's a pity that Lin Yi failed to win the best player in the first week, otherwise he could tie O'Neal's record of winning the best player in the first week of a rookie.
Knicks fans lamented Lin Yi's "Linsanity" performance, but Lin Yi himself regretted that he missed a statistic that could reach the top of history.
But fortunately, Lin Yi made a big move. After all, the NBA has a lot of data, and everything is the first in history, so it's still worth it?
One piece of data was missed and another piece of data was waiting for Lin Yi.
That statistic is absolutely equally shocking.
...
At the beginning of the 09/10 NBA season,
"Linsanity" surprised the entire league.
Just when people were wondering if the Knicks were really going to turn around, on November 10, the Knicks finally ended their 5-game winning streak.
Back at Madison Square Garden, the Knicks lost 93 to 105 to the visiting Jazz. In this game, the Knicks continued their bad touch against the Bucks, but the Jazz is not the Bucks.
The Jazz slowed down the offensive rhythm. Although Lin Yi scored 20 points, he couldn't save the Knicks from losing.
"It would be great if the level was higher." Lin Yi knew that his current level of strength had almost been developed by him to the limit. In a short period of time, there were only so many weapons in his arsenal except for improving the badge.
Fortunately, in the game against the Eagles on November 12, Lin Yi successfully unlocked his "difficult shooting" silver-level badge. The silver-level difficult badge represents Lin Yi's dry pull and various difficult shots It has been further sublimated. Of course, the hit rate bonus is still painful, and Lin Yi has to try it himself.
In addition, Lin Yi's next badge that will unlock the silver level is the crazy rebounder. As long as Lin Yi adjusts the focus of scoring in the game, he will soon unlock the silver level.
The only thing that hurts is that the range is unlimited. It’s not a joke to score 20 ultra-long three-pointers in the NBA. Lin Yi has only scored one so far. That was because of his touch when he was against the 76ers. After all, not everyone is a primary school student.
You must know that in order to unlock the "difficult shooting" silver level, Lin Yi has already started to fight crazily in the game. If he hadn't had the reason that hitting anyone is wrong, even if D'Antoni liked him again, he would definitely point it out to him. This style of play is unreasonable.
Why! No matter how difficult it is, you have to face it! If you don't increase the range to unlimited, Lin Yi's badge upgrade speed will be stuck.
Look for an opportunity to throw a super long three-pointer! Isn't it just two steps away from the NBA's three-point line...
Sure enough, elementary school students are still very perverted. They can still maintain that kind of hit rate after two steps.
Lin Yi soon found a reason to comfort himself. Anyway, it doesn't matter if he is a rookie season, and he will be unreasonable when he really becomes famous in the future.
So what do you think?
Just swipe and you're done!
...
Closer to home, after a wave of 5 consecutive victories, the Knicks suffered a wave of two consecutive losses. In the game against the Hawks, although Lin Yi scored 24 points, the Knicks still lost.
The Eagles were very focused on this defense, using Josh Smith and Horford to take turns against Lin Yi. At this time, Lin Yi suddenly felt a little nostalgic for Zaza Pachulia. At least Pachulia is here, and Lin Yi can easily force Pachulia. Chulia.
The Knicks are on the line again. The Knicks still have a lot of problems. Although they refer to the future Warriors' style of play, the Warriors' passing and cutting cooperation cannot be achieved in a day or two.
After the two-game losing streak, the Knicks' record slipped to fifth in the East, but the results of six wins and three losses are already quite good. In the ESPN power list, the Knicks have now risen to thirteenth.
Experts believe that if the Knicks can find a way to strengthen, then under the leadership of Lin Yi, they are expected to return to the playoffs.
Barkley also specifically mentioned Lin Yi's competitive spirit. He believes that Lin Yi's competitive spirit is what the Knicks most urgently need.
It's just that "Flying Pig" doesn't know, every time he poisoned Lin Yi, Lin Yi was very angry, why? Why doesn't Barkley look down on him?
Barkley looked down on the good deal, and then came to Botianxiu to play B and slap him in the face?
Isn't that what normal stories are supposed to be like?
Damn Buckley!
Of course, where there is honey, there is black, and there are still many fans who look down on the New York Knicks. After all, the NBA has never had a team that relied on shooting to win a championship.
Lin Yi doesn't care about these people's opinions at all. Of course it won't work to rely entirely on shooting, but it's hard to say that after Lin Yi has practiced the level, he can strengthen the Knicks' lineup.
Lin Hei thinks that Lin Yi will hit the rookie wall sooner or later, and at the same time they think that the Knicks will continue to lose with a wave of losing streak and continue to be bad.
Losing streak? Lin Yi relaxed a lot after looking at the schedule.
He knew that the Knicks' losing streak would end without accident in the next game.
Because the next opponent of the New York Knicks is: the Golden State Warriors.
