I really play basketball

Chapter 81 The Knicks Attack

In the first loss of his NBA career, Lin Xing did not play badly.

Facing Robert Horry's point-marking and the big dream's frame protection at the basket.

He still rushed to the basket more than a dozen times, or scored 22 points for layups or dunks.

In addition, he also grabbed 6 rebounds, sent 7 assists, and added 2 steals.

17 of 9 shots from the field, still maintaining high efficiency.

The team still lost the game, and the media are saying:
"The Warriors' interior is too bad. Their centers are Tyrone Hill at 2 meters and Luke Longley at 06 meters. Their power forwards can only use Star, who is the main point guard."

"If you don't solve the internal problems, this Warriors team that has made many changes will still be able to win the regular season, but not the playoffs, just like the Warriors in the TMC combination a few years ago."

The media were alarmist. After the game, Nelson responded:
"Because of the disadvantage inside? No, no, no, our outside accuracy is too bad, but if we score a few more three-pointers, the end of this game will not be like this."

Everyone felt that Old Nelson was making excuses.

But the Warriors players believe that these words of his are sincere.

因为这场比赛过后，18投6中的小虫、13投4中的穆林以及15投6中的狂人，包括一场比赛只出手了一次三分的林星，都被要求赛后加练投篮。

For this loss, Lin Xing also felt that he could accept it, because he, a latecomer, knew that the Rockets were the championship this season.

It's really nothing to lose a championship in the regular season.

But public opinion doesn't think so. Media reporters, experts, and ball critics don't think this Rocket is a favorite for the championship.

Because last season, the Rockets lost to the Sonics and were eliminated in the second round.

A summer passed without any additions other than the draft pick of Sam Cassell.

This Rocket, to put it bluntly, is the same Rocket that played in the second round of the playoffs last season.

But in fact, in some subtleties, this rocket has changed a lot.

simply put--

After the Rockets lost to the Sonics in the playoffs last season, Supersonics head coach George Karl pointed out:

The reason why the Rockets can't beat the little-known Supersonics is because Dameng can't pass the ball.

"When Big Dream learns to pass the ball, it will be unstoppable."

So this season, Rudy Tomjanovich made a change.

Dameng is no longer an offensive terminator, he has become the center axis of the Rockets, responsible for containing the defense and supporting the offense.

With this change, the Rockets' seemingly mediocre wing and back line suddenly became the top of the league.

Not only is it extremely hard, but the depth of the bench is also at the forefront of the league.

But at the beginning of the season, few people in the entire NBA were able to realize this.

They still believe, as usual, that the Rockets are a team owned by Dameng alone.

In this game, the Warriors were defeated by Dameng alone.

"Madman" Maxwell, who scored 4 three-pointers, Otis Thorpe, who grabbed 13 rebounds, and Mario Elli, who scored 16 points off the bench, were just ignored.

Therefore, after the game, Lin Xing lamented the strength of the Rockets.

By the way, he also urgently felt that his rebounding attributes were not high enough.

Strength crushes all opponents in the NCAA, but in the NBA, it is still not enough to face the real top centers such as Dameng and Admiral.

Fortunately, the game has entered the regular season, and the growth rate of the blood value in the system has indeed accelerated a lot as the system said.

In the game against the Suns, he played against Barkley and Cedric Ceballos. In one game, he got 88 blood points.

Against the Mavericks, he only got 21 blood points against Mashburn and Jim Jackson.

This time against the Rockets, against Horry and Dameng, he got another 75 blood points.

Coupled with the training income during this period, there are about 10 blood points.

According to this progress, he calculated that after a whole season, he could accumulate nearly [-] million blood points.

It is equal to the attribute points in the range of 70-79, and he can exchange eight or nine points.

Considering that the intensity of the playoffs will be higher, plus the blood value obtained in the playoffs, it is not a problem to add one or two points of attributes in the range of 80-89 a season.

"If you only rely on the accumulated blood value, the speed is still too slow. There should be some easter eggs in the system..."

Lin Xing guessed, he stared at the more than 300 million blood points in the system, hesitated for a second, and gave up adding points.

The main reason is that he feels that his 80-point strength needs to be raised.

After all, there is the badge of the king of confrontation. As long as he puts it on, he will no longer have any problems playing power forward in the wrong position of confrontation.

……

After losing to the Rockets, the Warriors still didn't go home.

They have already played two games in Texas, and there is one game left for the Spurs, of course they cannot let it go.

As a result, in this game against the Spurs, they also encountered one of the four major centers, but they won.

Although this victory is related to the outbreak of the Warriors' outside shooters.

Xiao Chong, Madman, Mullin and Steve Kerr and Dale Ellis who came off the bench made a total of 14 three-pointers.

In 1990, this three-point score was quite a lot.

But at the same time, this victory confirmed Lin Xing's or George Karl's point of view——

Dameng learned to pass the ball, so the Rockets are no longer his team alone.

The Spurs are still the general's one-man team.

Although the general's pass assists are not many, his teammates are much worse than Dameng.

In this life, there is one less Dell Ellis, who can't support him alone, even if he blows up the inside line of the Warriors, he is hard to beat with two fists and multiple hands.

靠着外围爆发，以及林星的16投9中24分7个篮板10次助攻3个抢断1个盖帽，勇士击败了季前赛曾经击败他们的马刺。

In this way, the first week of the new season came to an end.

The Warriors have 3 wins and 1 loss, which can be regarded as their expected performance.

第一周，林星这个状元场均26.0分7.0个篮板9.5个助攻3.3个抢断0.5个盖帽，56.9%的命中率，当之无愧的成为了首周周最佳新秀。

Even in the selection of the best player of the week, Lin Xing only lost to Dameng, who won all four games in the first four games and averaged 30.3 points, 14.0 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.0 steals and 3.8 blocks per game.

"The first week of the NBA regular season came to an end, Stalin performed well, and the statement that the number one rookie in history is still unquestionable."

Regarding the four games in the first week, Lin Xing’s feelings are——

"It seems a little relaxed..."

The opponent in the first game was the Suns with total defense, and the second game was the Mavericks who were at the bottom.

In three or four games, the opponent is not weak, nor is it a total attack and defense team.

But neither the Rockets nor the Spurs lack outside defenders who can face Lin Xing.

The Rockets used Robert Horry to defend Lin Xing, so Lin Xing was able to easily drive to the basket.

The Spurs used Willie Anderson to defend Lin Xing, but Lin Xing was still under little pressure.

Therefore, although Lin Xing needs to face the second of the four major centers to protect the frame at the basket, Lin Xing's confrontation is not empty.

It's not a big problem to rush in, carry a big dream or general, and guarantee a hit rate of more than [-]%.

Although, in these two games, he also ate big hats counted by two hands.

Lin Xing, who received these big hats, just sighed: "The four major centers are the four major centers, and they are much better than those centers in 30 or [-] years."

Feeling the ease of the NBA, Lin Xing didn't know that his test was already on the way.

Moreover, his emotion will also be broken by this new opponent.

……

In New York, the Knicks are ready to go.

One week into the new season, they are about to embark on a six-game Western Conference road trip.

The first game is the Golden State Warriors.

"I heard that the rookie of the Warriors was just a little bit short of becoming the best player in the league in the first week. The media is bragging that he is the best rookie in history. Is this guy really so good?"

Before boarding the plane, a black man in the Knicks team who looked like a pig was holding a newspaper and started the conversation.

"It's all bragging, understand, Doug, what is the best rookie in history, there are many rookies in history who are better than him, who is he?"

"As for the best of the week, it's David Stern's masterpiece."

"As far as the performance in the first week is concerned, we also won all four games. How is Patrick worse than him? Why is he ranked behind him?"

It was John Starks who spoke, and Lin Xing didn't know and couldn't know:

Another "lunatic" in the NBA is referring to himself with a contemptuous expression and tone.

In the end, he stopped Ewing who was walking in front: "Do you think so too, Patrick?"

Ewing shrugged: "What nonsense are you talking about, John?"

On the plane, Ewing took the lead, circled a small table, and took out a deck of playing cards.

"Stop talking about those unhappy things, play for a while, be happy."

Two hours later, when the plane landed, Ewing looked unhappy.

He lost more than $2 because of poker games on the plane.

You know, at this time, his annual salary is only less than 400 million US dollars, and 2 US dollars is enough for him to feel distressed.

But you told him not to gamble?His hands were itchy again, and he couldn't help it.

At this time, there is no Gold Club, and he really has no other way to entertain himself.

So, he sighed when he got off the plane.

Running into a group of reporters, he was asked about Lin Xing.

"Patrick, your opponent in this game is the Golden State Warriors. The number one star in their team is Stalin, known as the best rookie in history. What do you think of Stalin?"

He didn't want to answer the question, so immediately, he shrugged and sneered: "The best rookie in history? Ha!"

"Any questions?"

"He said he is the best rookie in history? I also said that I am the best No. [-] pick in history!"

"Well, the Warriors gave him the largest rookie contract in history, and Nike also gave him the largest rookie shoe contract in history, so the best rookie in history is not what he claims to be."

When he heard about the largest contract in history, Ewing became even more angry.

Originally losing more than 2 US dollars, it was enough for him to feel distressed.

Now there are still people who use other people's big contracts to stimulate themselves. Once they get angry, they can say anything.

"That can only prove that the Warriors and Nike have a brain twitch!"

The reporter insisted: "Charles Barkley also said similar things. He also made a bet with Star, but in the end, he lost the bet and kissed the ass of the donkey."

The reporter means, do you want to kiss the ass of the donkey too?
But when he heard about the bet, Ewing, who had just lost 2 US dollars, immediately extinguished half of the anger in his heart.

However, there is still no shortage of cruel words: "I am a superstar in this league. I will not lower my level like Charles. It is impossible to bet on it, but I guarantee that in the next game, Stalin will be beaten back to his original form!"

……

In Oakland, Lin Xing discovered that his two record-setting contracts had completely become troublemakers.

Barkley was brought in by these two contracts, as was Ewing.

It was as if everyone would be sore when they heard his two contracts.

There were all kinds of cruel words on their lips, as if, in the next second, they were going to fight Lin Xing with their fists.

"Then what do you guys do, don't just beep and don't do anything!"

Lin Xing spread his hands, and Barkley is a typical example of just beeping and not doing anything. He made a lot of harsh words, and as a result, there were not many elbows on the court.

The last two blows sent me to the hospital...

This time, I don't know if Ewing can be tougher and show his fist.

Lin Xing, who adheres to the belief that no one offends me, I will not offend anyone, is looking forward to being punched at him.

Thinking about it soon, he will be able to fight this Knicks, and Lin Xing's fists can't stop stiffening.

Although, Pat Riley's Knicks' iron-blooded defense still made Lin Xing a little flustered.

"It would be great if we could really get into a fight. In this way, even if the Knicks are defending against us, we still have a reason to look for!"

Before the Knicks arrived, a report from the San Jose Mercury News made Lin Xing dumbfounded.

Not long ago, he was flying away from Oakland to Dallas, and Xiao Chong took a sleeping photo with a reporter from the San Jose Mercury News, and as expected, it still leaked out.

But looking at this group photo, the evaluation of the fans in the Bay Area is-"The Handsome Guy and the Beast!"

The handsome guy is Lin Xing, with a tough and handsome face, it's no problem to go straight to Hollywood.

As for the beast...

To be honest, Lin Xing complained more than once that the appearance of this warrior team is really a bit low.

In the starting lineup alone, there are two members of the ugliest lineup in the NBA.

One is Tyrone Hill and the other is Madman Sprewell.

Fortunately, Tyrone Hill said that people are born ugly, brought from the womb, there is no way.

The madman did it by himself. The floral braid on the other end, when viewed from the front, Lin Xing thought it was a black version of King Kong Barbie, and he couldn't bear to look directly at it.

The bug looks normal, but that's just normal.

"With such good looks, do you have the nerve to take a photo with me?"

Lin Xing shook his head. On the other side, Nix, who had already checked into the hotel, was discussing how to do Lin Xing.

"Certainly can't let Charles go to defend, his pace is too slow..."

Ewing was the boss, he first denied his bodyguard, and then set his sights on John Starks.

"Me? Patrick, I can't..."

"John, how can a man say he can't do it?"

"No, no, boss, listen to me, I have seen Si Da..."

"Okay, John, we have no other choice but you, the organization has decided, it's you!"

He made a hasty decision like this, and at the end, Ewing also mentioned a few words about Starks.

"John, don't be cowardly, go straight up and fuck him, show him some flair!"

Starks was a little flustered, he really didn't want to go home and lie down for a month like Barkley did.

But as Ewing said, apart from him, the Knicks seem to have no one else who can match Lin Xing.
