Chapter 0414: Leader, That's What I'm Here To Do! (3rd Update)

In this round of the finals, Carlisle really felt that he was being targeted by D'Antoni everywhere.

In order to avoid the Knicks starting wide as soon as they came up tonight, Carlisle deliberately scheduled DeSean Stevenson to start, because Stevenson's defense was better than Ellis's.

But the Knicks got off to a regular start tonight.

Because D'Antoni knows very well that if you use too many of the same routines, the opponent will get used to your style of play, and Lao De's idea coincides with Lin Yi, and both the master and apprentice believe that the G5 battle must not give the Mavericks any chance.

The Knicks' surprise may have disrupted the Mavericks' original deployment and arrangement, but as Lin Yi expected, the difficulty of this round of the series is quite high.

Whoever bites off on both teams is likely, and the Knicks must not give the Mavericks a chance to breathe.

The Mavericks' players also know very well that when the finals are played at this point, they can only play with their lives.

What friendship first, competition second, there is just a higher intensity of defense than before.

Lin Yi's first attack was unsuccessful, Marion gave him enough physical strength, Okafor also tried his best to help defend him, the elbows of the two macho men on the left and the right were on the elbow, and Lin Yi, whose passing angle was blocked, forced a layup and couldn't score.

Lin Yi thought it was a problem with the referee's scale at first, but he soon found that tonight's referee had a kind of handing over the outcome of the game to both sides, as long as the action was not malicious, but not too big, they resolutely did not blow the whistle.

Because Ki Bu also had a strong collision with Billups in the air when he made a layup, the sound of muscle collision was terrifying to hear.

Kidd complained to the referee after he didn't score a layup, but tonight's referees were like old monks, they couldn't hear it, they couldn't hear it!

As a result, the Mavericks and Knicks played the first two minutes of the G5 game in the finals, and the score was still 0-0.

This makes the cheeks of those experts and celebrities who say that this round of the finals has given up defense, only pursues offense, and the intensity of confrontation has greatly decreased.

In fact, whether it is the Eastern Conference finals that the Knicks have played before or this Finals, the intensity has really not been low.

In the finals, the Mavericks and Knicks seem to be more tactical, but in fact, every attack of Lin Yi is a fight in a muscle jungle.

And the G5 battle, such intensity because the Mavericks were pushed to a desperate situation, and the Knicks were eager to win the cup after 38 years, and they completely reached the peak.

Even King Nuo Tianwang rarely missed the vacant position, and Lin Yi's mid-range shot after getting rid of the defender failed to hit.

If you are too focused on defense, it is easy to affect the feel of shooting, you must know that in this round of the finals, it is quite rare for Lin Yineng to maintain a 50% shooting rate.

When there were 8 minutes and 57 seconds left in the first quarter of this game, Lin Yi finally scored points for the Knicks. He suddenly accelerated on the outside, and Marion didn't have time to give Lin Yi a physical confrontation this time to force Lin Yi to slow down...... And Lin Yi, who broke into the inner line to attract the help defense, successfully completed a dodge in the air.

His huge body seemed to be still in the air, and the calf's help interfered with his passing line, but Lin Yi did not deter from this.

He dodged Okafor in the air, turned like a tornado and turned 180 degrees before pulling a lever to score a layup!

2 to 0!

The Knicks broke the deadlock and took the lead!

"This is definitely a five-best ball performance, we often say that with strength to break the skill, four taels can be dialed a thousand catties, Lin Yi's flexibility and coordination and this sense of stagnation, it is simply dancing in the air!"

Zhang Lizhi didn't have time to speak this time, and Yu Jia preemptively blew a wave of Lin Yi.

There was also a whisper of surprise from the U.S. Route Center gymnasium...... In the regular season or the playoffs, Lin Yi can play such a performance will be surprising, but it will definitely not be surprising.

But this is the finals!

Nowitzki glanced at Lin Yi, the old driver didn't expect that after the nervousness at the beginning, this little guy was actually the first person to calm down on this court.

The "old driver" felt as if he was carrying a little too much, so after taking a deep breath, Nowitzki's expression finally relaxed.

The Mavericks' first offense was made by King Nor.

When the soft touch broke through the shackles brought by the defensive intensity, the basketball successfully fell to the net with a graceful arc.

2-2 draw!

Barkley said with emotion: "Even if this round of the finals is over tonight, I think the quality of this round of the finals will definitely be in the top five in my mind. ”

Kenny Smith didn't mess up Barkley, and if he had done so, he would have asked what the other four Finals Buckley had in mind were the top five.

"That's true, Charles, but that's the way the NBA is, it's destined to be a championship for only one team." Kenny Smith said.

On the court, the Knicks' offense, Billups didn't find a suitable opportunity, Lin Yi decisively went around to ask for the ball, and Marion tried to interfere with Lin Yi to catch the ball by going around.

It's a pity that the old hacker couldn't prevent Lin Yi from receiving Billups's anti-hanging, and Lin Yi found that even the pass of the "big heart" was not as comfortable as usual.

As the intensity of this game increases, the more eager both sides are to win, it is inevitable that the players on both sides will make some mistakes or deform their movements.

After Lin Yi successfully received the ball, his body was facing Marion, his right hand grabbed the ball with one hand, and Marion couldn't even steal it.

When, when, when!

At the moment when Marion was panting, Lin Yi suddenly dribbled and took a step to the left and his face was dry.

The basketball bounced twice on the hoop and then fell into the net.

4 to 2!

As a leader, Lin Yi knows that this is the time when he has to stand up, no matter whether the ball goes in or not, he has to stand up.

Because you don't fight, your teammates obviously don't know how to fight now.

When tactics and feel are limited in all aspects, Lin Yi must stabilize his teammates, because he is not worried that the Knicks' gang will be lost throughout the game.

When his teammates feel good, Lin Yi will not steal the limelight with them, but he will add fuel to the fire and retreat behind the scenes.

So this is also the reason why even if Lin Yi shoots 30 times, his teammates will not have an opinion, because Lin Yi is not simply shooting for the sake of shooting.

Nowitzki and Lin Yi's choice is the same, this G5 battle, in this stalemate, is the core of the two sides who can defend the teammates to take the lead in flowering and playing.

Hmmm——!

Nowitzki also scored, 4-4.

"The Knicks' offense is still for Lin Yi." Yu Jia said.

"Tonight, the two sides are directly on the bayonet hand-to-hand combat, the competition is who can bite the game, the Knicks and Mavericks are both single-core teams, and it is Lin Yi and Nowitzki who are watching the play." Zhang said reasonably.

Knock, knock, knock.

Marion, who had a low center of gravity, felt that his eyes were about to be spent, and every dribble of Lin Yi was actually licking blood on the tip of the knife, but on the contrary, Marion just didn't dare to intercept it.

In fact, what Vicky admires most about Lin Yi is this.

He and Duncan do share the same attributes.

On the court, Billups's eyes suddenly lit up, and out of the corner of his eye, he noticed the bullfight on the other side of the basketball court...... After Lin Yi changed his center of gravity for the third time, looking at Marion's trembling old legs, Billups muttered to himself: "What a wonderful worship of the Buddha!" ”

The old hacker couldn't keep up with Lin Yi's pace.

Lin Yi burst into the restricted area and forced a layup against Okafor!

In this G5, the Mavericks can't afford to lose, but for the Knicks, they can't afford to lose either.

The future is too far away, Lin Yi only wants the present.

Like Kobe Bryant said, there's always someone who wants to win, so why can't it be me?

After Nowitzki once again equalized for the Mavericks with Golden Rooster, the Knicks were the first to request a timeout.

O'Neill handed the towel to Lin Yi and began to twist his neck at the same time.

On the other side, Maverick coach Carlisle, who was explaining how to play next, knew that the five deaths of the Knicks were coming again!
