"Yao Shark Duel" is definitely one of the most classic matchups in the memory of all Chinese fans.

There are even many fans and experts who believe that Yao Ming's weight gain is to deal with the big shark O'Neal.

After all, in those days, every team in the league would have a meat shield, and the meaning of these meat shields was to go up and top them when playing against O'Neal's team.

These meat shields should be thanked to O'Neal for allowing them to work in the NBA for so many years.

As the big shark O'Neill grows older, his dominance is no longer what it was back then.

But with his experience and big ass, he can still score 12 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks per game this season, pay attention! This result was achieved with only 23.4 minutes per game.

The 37-year-old O'Neal certainly can't play like he did when he was 20, but he can also tell the young people in the league who want to get up the top in another way that Jiang is still old and spicy.

On Nov. 7, the New York Knicks welcomed the Cleveland Cavaliers on their home court.

For the first time, D'Antoni's side had a big test.

Madison Square Garden is full of people, can the champion Xiu Lin Yi continue his magical performance?

Can the dialogue between Lin Yi and the big shark O'Neill continue the topic of "Yao Shark Showdown"?

Can Lin Yi do what even the little emperor can't do in his rookie season and lead the Knicks, who finished at the bottom of last season, to the playoffs?

All eyes are on you, and perhaps the best adjective for this game.

……

In Lin Yi's memory, the Cavaliers in the 09/10 season really made a lot of moves in order to keep James, O'Neal is one of them, and Lin Yi also remembers that this Cavaliers will rob the Wizards who are ready to rebuild in the middle of the season, in exchange for Antoine Jamison, who has outstanding scoring ability, just looking at the lineup, this Cavaliers can form an All-Star.

Of course, the Cavaliers in Lin Yi's memory did play well in the regular season, relying on the defensive intensity of the playoffs to get 61 wins.

But heading into the playoffs, when their opponents brought up the defensive intensity, the Cavaliers' biggest problem was exposed.

They are short of shooters!

But this can't be blamed on the Cavaliers' uniform group, because with the success of Kobe and O'Neal, the success of Wade and O'Neal, and the combination of Yao Ming and Maddie, people generally believe that the super outside line should cooperate with the top inside line during this period.

But history will prove that the best strategy for LeBron James is to pair him with a bunch of pitchers who play without the ball.

Just because the Cavaliers' management can't foresee the future doesn't mean they don't do anything, they actually do it every season!

If the Cavaliers' management is really indifferent, how can Gilbert, the "slammering" boss, pay the league's highest luxury tax every year to strengthen the Cavaliers?

When the brilliance of the stars overshadows the entire team, should the Cavaliers give the Cavaliers a slightly more generous assessment?

Cleveland is a small country town, but they were still able to pull off what was dubbed a tie in the 09/10 season, when Antoine Jamison was an average scorer with 20 points per game.

The years have taken away the hustle and bustle, time has passed, maybe everything depends on Benzema!

……

During the warm-up, Lin Yi found that LeBron James's athleticism at this time was even more explosive than he remembered, and all kinds of flying away.

At this time, LeBron was not an old man's step, but a real N-step layup completed with super fast foot frequency.

As for the exact few steps, to be honest, Lin Yi didn't see it clearly!

The NBA's official explanation was because LeBron James played too consistently, and the referee couldn't see whether he was walking or not, so he specially modified the rules.

Emmmmmmm, no matter what, this knight is really strong.

This is a little emperor at his peak!

……

"Coach Zhang, the player Lin Yi is facing today should be the big shark O'Neal, many fans have pinched Lin Yi before the game, because of his current weight and playing style, do you think he can withstand the big shark?" Yu Jia warmed up before the game.

"Hehe, I think the fans' worries are superfluous, Lin Yi's style of play and characteristics, it's hard to say whether O'Neill can keep up with him!" Zhang-Lin Yi is reasonable no matter how he fights-said the guide.

"What Director Zhang said makes sense, many American media are also talking about the contest between Lin Yi and LeBron James in today's game, Director Zhang, do you think Lin Yi can accomplish what James can't accomplish in his rookie season?" Yu Jia said.

"It's too early to compare Lin Yi and James, and the two are not the same style. But don't say it, Lin Yi really has a chance to lead the Knicks to the playoffs in his rookie season, which James can't do. "Zhang is clear and logical.

Yu Jia nodded, what Director Zhang said was so reasonable, I couldn't refute it.

On the court, O'Neal and James, who were in the warm-up game, also chatted with Lin Yi.

When he was playing in the NCAA, James came to see his own games.

"That's cool, you actually shook the center of the 76ers down." James and Lin Yi said.

Lin Yi nodded, did he stay with Stephen Curry for a long time, and he was not nervous at all when he wanted to play with LeBron James?

It's very likely, because when I was in college, I was abusing the MVP of the Future League every day, nervous? The big scene?

Lin - Big Heart - Yi.

Lin Yi knew that LeBron James was just a compliment, and he remembered that LeBron James joked with Curry when Stephen Curry first entered the NBA All-Star, saying that Curry shook his little guard to death, and Curry also respected LeBron James at that time, as for later......

Ahem!

In addition, O'Neill also admires Lin Yi, Lin Yi knows that this is because of the Chinese market behind him, O'Neill has a high emotional intelligence, and he also praises Yao Ming from head to toe.

Just listen to this kind of polite remark.

One of the more interesting episodes of this game was when the little emperor threw magnesium powder before the game, and the Madison Square Garden did not come with a very cooperative cheer, but instead: "Phew————————!! ”

History has been changed by itself.

Knicks fans don't feel so cold about James anymore.

This is also a good thing, because Lin Yi knows very well that New York's recruitment of James is for nothing.

It's time to enter the countdown to bro basketball.

……

NBA President David Stern turned on the TV, he was very satisfied with the publicity of this game, James was the object he wanted to support, and Lin Yi played better and better in these regular season games, and the Chinese market was full of good news, Stern is now in a good mood and wants to work for a few more years.

In Madison Square Garden, the referee walks to the center circle with a basketball in his arms.

Knicks starters: Lin Yi, David Lee, Wilson Chandler, Gallinari, Larry Hughes.

Cavaliers starters: O'Neal, Vallejo, James, More, Anthony Parker.

Jumping ball, Lin Yike will not give O'Neill any face.

He tapped, and Larry Hughes snatched the basketball.

The opening first attack on the Knicks won the ball.

Amid the cheers of the home fans, Larry Hughes handed over the basketball to Lin Yi with interest.

Ouch?

Mike Brown actually arranged for Vallejo to defend himself?

This is not good, don't you know that what fans want to see is "Forest Shark Showdown?" ”

Lin Yi gave David Li a look, and David Li decisively came over to block and dismantle.

The last thing O'Neal wants to do in his life is to prevent pick-and-rolls.

Cavaliers head coach Mike Brown had this in mind and let Vallejo defend Lin Yi.

But how do the Knicks break the inside line and the inside line block?

Lin Yi held the ball in one hand near the top of the arc, watched the player opposite him change to O'Neal, and nodded to David Lee with satisfaction.

Come on! Fatso! Let's fight it out!
