This Forward is Not Serious

The second season of the Brave Net War came sooner than everyone expected.

The outside world's expectations for this game are also greater than expected.

The main reason is naturally because of Lin Ying's current way of playing.

He has already copied the deeds of "Forcing the King" Bird in two consecutive games. Whether there will be a third game in a row, no one knows, but he also wants to know.

And compared to previous opponents, the Warriors, an old opponent, has significantly higher attention.

If Lin Yingzhen pretended to be a force in this kind of focused battle, then his nickname of "New Force King" would be well deserved.

Of course, they were also curious, if Lin Ying really wanted to pretend, what kind of coercion would he pretend to be.

On social media, fans have already begun to list Bird's pretending deeds, and some people have even reproduced the situation.

For example, someone took the experience of Bird and "Dr. J" Owen as an example.

In a game that year, Dr. J was in poor condition and only scored 6 points, while Bird, who was opposite him, scored 42 points.

The classic scene came from the third quarter, when Bird had scored 36 points and Dr. J had only 6 points, and then Bird kept saying "36-6" next to Irving.

Because Bird's trash talk was really annoying, and Owen was really in a bad state at the time. After becoming angry, he directly grabbed Bird's neck, and then Bird didn't show weakness and grabbed Owen's neck.

The pairing of the two has become a widely circulated world famous painting.jpg.

The reason why they thought of this was because Lin Ying would face off against Greene!

If Lin Ying wants to destroy Green's mentality, this method will be very effective.

Because in addition to bad breath, Green's other characteristic is that he has a bad temper.

If Lin Ying kept repeating those words, Green would probably be provoked.

At that time, the focus of the fans was whether Green dared to stretch out his hand to pinch Lin Ying's neck.

If you really pinch, um, to watch the excitement and not take it too seriously, it will be quite exciting.

…

A day later, Oracle Arena.

Although it is not a Christmas battle, the lively scene of Oracle Arena is no less than that of Barclays Center.

The scene was crowded, and the fans' faces were full of excitement and anticipation.

The Warriors' recent state has picked up, and the main reason is that Green's three-pointer has picked up.

One thing has to be said here. The degradation of Green's three-pointer in history is a step-by-step degradation, not a sudden loss of three-pointer.

And his three-point regression and the addition of Durant also have an inevitable connection.

Because the Warriors have three all-time shooters on the floor, there's basically no need for Green to throw 3-pointers.

So from the historical data, Green has a cliff-like decline in three-pointers after Durant joined.

But now it's James not Durant who is coming to the Warriors, so Green didn't suddenly lose the ability to make three-pointers, but because he gained too much weight, he lost his shooting touch. question.

So his perimeter touch has a chance to pick up.

And once he can make some shots, the Warriors have a much better sense of space on the court, and James can play more freely.

And it's really that the Warriors' offensive talent is too high, they don't actually need Green's three-pointer to the level of Jokic.

As long as it doesn't hold back, it's already a big help.

During the pregame warm-up, you could see Green and James talking and laughing again.

But this is the NBA, and there are not many teams with a harmonious atmosphere like the Nets.

"are you ready?"

While warming up, Durant suddenly approached Lin Ying and asked.

Lin Ying nodded.

However, watching Durant gesture a boxing move in front of him, he realized that he seemed to have misunderstood.

He also thought that Durant was asking about pretense.

But he didn't say anything, because even if he asked about punching, he was already ready.

Durant said "hehe", and then geared up, looking more than he expected.

Lin Ying shook his head helplessly after seeing it. Durant, like those fans, was watching the fun without taking it too seriously.

After the warm-up before the game, the scene entered the opening ceremony, and the starters on both sides appeared one after another.

The full lineup of the Nets here, Bradley, Ariza, Durant, Lin Ying, Jokic;

On the Warriors side, Curry, Thompson, James, Green, McGee.

Pachulia missed the game with a foot injury.

Last season's finals footing, Durant stole the chicken, and he suffered a fracture in the bone of his foot.

For big players, foot injuries are the most torturous and the most difficult because of their weight.

Before that, Pachulia had missed a few games with a foot injury, and now it's the same situation, and it's his fifth straight game.

It looks like this injury will accompany him throughout his career.

After the opening ceremony, both sides were making final preparations, and the scene footage was constantly given to Lin Ying and Green.

There's no way, it's true that Lin Ying has played too much in the past two games. As a player against Lin Ying, Green's attention has naturally soared.

Green looked calm, and seemed to be in a really good mood.

Maybe he really enjoys being in the spotlight.

All preparations were completed before the game, and the starters of both sides appeared one after another.

Jokic and McGee's jump ball in the middle circle.

McGee has outstanding physical talent and historical talent below the neck, and is also called "Olajukie" by fans.

He easily jumped over Jokic, giving the Warriors a chance to take the lead.

The Warriors advanced to the frontcourt, McGee was on the weak side of the basket to prepare for off-ball pick-and-rolls, and Green was near the free throw line to prepare for support and pick-and-rolls.

And Splash's movement also fell from a high position to between the free throw line and the basket closer to the inside.

It can be seen from this that Green had a bad perimeter feel before, which forced Kerr to optimize his tactics.

James restrained Lin Ying, Curry restrained the two, and Thompson cut out from the strong side and received a pass from Green for a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

Knife up and down.

This tactical tweak by the Warriors seems to be working!

The scene suddenly burst into cheers from the Bay Area fans.

They are not New York fans, they will applaud Lin Ying's performance, they are loyal to the home team!

And although the interval from the last game is not counted, but after three days, they are not the same as before!

In the transition from offense to defense, Lin Ying moved to the frontcourt, and it was Green who was defending him.

Unlike the previous game, Green directly guarded Lin Ying this time.

It seems that he has also learned from the experience and lessons of the previous game, adjusted his defensive style, and changed to restrict Lin Ying from receiving the ball.

Seeing this, Lin Ying's expression was obviously stunned.

After seeing Lin Ying's reaction, Green felt a burst of joy in his heart.

Sure enough, the best way to restrict Lin Ying's performance is to restrict him from catching the ball, which is much easier than how to prevent him.

Well, Green thought so for a second.

But in the next second, he was completely stunned.

Because Lin Ying had his back against him, he shouted directly at Jokic who was holding the ball:

"Give me the ball, I'm open here."

"?"

"!"

In fact, not to mention Green, even Jokic has experienced such a psychological change.

But looking at the seriously demanding posture of the team boss, it is impossible for Jokic not to give it.

Then, just as Green was stunned, Lin Ying had already received the ball from Jokic.

He didn't wait for Green to turn around completely. After leaning on Green, he directly changed direction and made a breakthrough to pass Green.

The Warriors' inside assist defense was very fast. James looked at this side for a long time, and then quickly came over to assist.

The reason why Green dared to defend Lin Ying so closely is not only to limit Lin Ying's ability to catch the ball, but another point is also very important. The Warriors have already deployed help in advance.

In other words, he gave his back completely to his teammates.

Looking at James who came to help defend, Lin Ying directly chose to make a pull-up jumper.

At this time, James struggled to jump up and interfere.

"Shh!"

But before that, Lin Ying still put the ball firmly into the basket.

"Why did he shoot with his right hand?"

After Lin Ying threw the ball, many fans suddenly had such an idea in their hearts.

But after popping up, they were quick to laugh to themselves.

Lin Ying played too big against the Knicks in the last game, and they haven't adjusted it yet!

The Warriors' offense, James's cut after a pick-and-roll, received a long pass from Curry to dodge a dunk.

The Warriors have had their ups and downs, but the two superstars have gotten better and better as the game progressed.

The opening two offenses scored points, and the Warriors are in much better shape than they were in the Christmas game.

The performance of his teammates also stimulated Green's spiritual attributes. He continued to entangle with Lin Ying without the ball on the defensive end, and his movements became larger.

Judging from his posture, tonight he is ready to devote all his energy to the defensive end to consume Lin Ying.

Then, just as he was trying his best again, Lin Ying's familiar words appeared in his ears again.

And this time, he could hear it clearly and understand it.

"Give me the ball, I'm open now!"

empty seat?

Is Lin Ying taking him for air?

After realizing this, he instantly became furious.

It's normal for him to be unable to guard against Lin Ying, but Lin Ying's words are completely humiliating him!

Jokic reacted quickly this time, and when Lin Ying asked for it sideways, he directly gave it a lob.

Lin Ying jumped to catch the ball, then leaned back against Green.

Green directly sank his center of gravity against Lin Ying, and his hands were stuck on Lin Ying's waist.

Lin Ying has to pay for what he just said!

"Whoosh!"

Just when he thought so, Lin Ying suddenly turned around and made a breakthrough to the basket.

However, Green's reaction this time was fast enough. At the moment Lin Ying's breakthrough was made, he folded his center of gravity and moved to the inside.

A very important reason for his three-point recovery is that he lost some weight again at the request of the coaching staff.

Of course, he wouldn't admit that the weight gain this season was due to a lack of self-discipline in the offseason.

But the end result is that he is now back at the same weight as last season, which allows him to regain flexibility on the defensive end.

Well, Lin Ying got rid of Green with a pull-up and made another pull-up jumper.

"Shh!"

Basketball hits the rim again!

Green has indeed become more flexible, but it is still not enough to defend against Lin Ying alone!

The mood of the fans at the scene was more complicated at this time.

Because of Lin Ying's continuous shooting, Lin Ying felt extremely soft, as silky as Dove.

This really verifies what Lin Ying said in the post-match interview. He wanted to rest his right hand so that he could play in tonight's game!

Of course, silky or not is not the point at all, the point is,

Green is going to explode!

Lin Ying didn't take him as air, but he really looked like air!

If it wasn't for the fact that he knew that the opposite was Lin Ying, he would have wanted to go up and fight him now!

Then, what Green never expected was that this was just the beginning!

After the Warriors missed a wave of offense and the Nets advanced to the frontcourt, Lin Ying was not in a hurry to get the ball this time, but looked at Kerr on the sidelines with a smile.

Seeing Lin Ying looking at him during the game, Kerr sat up inexplicably.

As Lin Ying's former team general manager and former assistant coach, Kerr is also Lin Ying's old acquaintance.

From the attention of old acquaintances, he naturally has to be more serious.

Then, Lin Ying's next sentence made his straight body almost collapse.

"Steve, why didn't you send someone to guard me?"

What the hell!

Lin Ying spat on Cole!

No, nor is it.

Although this trash talk was directed at Cole, it seemed that Green was still spraying it.

A world where only Green was injured seemed to emerge in a short period of time!

Cole obviously also realized what Lin Ying was going to do, because he was too familiar with this scene.

When Rodman was a rookie, he had a bad relationship with Bird because of his comment that "Bird is famous only because he's white."

Later, Bird did these things to Rodman in the tiebreaker of the Eastern Conference finals in order to punish Rodman.

In that game, Rodman was not only sprayed with autism by Bird, but also cried directly.

Before, there were speculations on social media what Lin Ying was going to pretend to be tonight, but he didn't seem to have guessed it at all!

And because Lin Ying didn't ask for it this time, Durant on the other side has automatically taken the ball and started playing No. 2 tactic. Lin Ying has plenty of time to continue communicating with "Cole".

"Steve, are you really not going to send someone to guard me? If you keep shooting open shots like this, I will score 60+ tonight!"

This time, Cole couldn't hold back at all, and he just... laughed.

Lin Ying, this is really not enough shrimp and pig heart, and he has to eat Green as a dish!

However, Kerr didn't have time to make other reactions, because Durant had already passed the ball over there when he broke through and encountered a pincer attack.

Lin Ying made a beautiful sudden start. After turning around to get rid of Green, he received the ball and made another three-pointer.

"Shh!"

Knives out!

Lin Ying looked down at his right hand.

Confirming his eyes, this is indeed a hand that he has never shot in the last game.

Then he turned and smiled at Cole again, making a "3" at Coleby.

Well, this is already his third consecutive goal on Green's head!
