Chapter 123 [Fallback Jumper](1/2)
"Clang, complete the task and obtain skill [rear jump shot]"
"[Lookback Jumping]: When the host ends with a backward jumping posture, the host's shooting percentage will randomly increase by 1% to 5%.
Lin Rui is very glad that he won the game again.
Tonight's game was too difficult.
This skill is hard-won.
At the post-match press conference.
Coach Thomas was the first to accept the question.
The reporter asked: "What happened in your locker room? It made you perform completely differently in the first and second half."
Thomas said: "During the half-time break, Lin stood up and motivated everyone. He allowed everyone to improve their confrontation and concentration."
The reporter asked: "So, Lin has become the leader of the locker room?"
Thomas said: "Yes, he's not just on the court, but off the court, and I know you can't believe it, but that's the truth."
The reporters did not doubt Thomas's words, and Lin Rui had such a leader temperament.
The reporter asked: "Did you deliberately let Lin pass the ball like this?"
Lin Rui played 6 games and sent more than 10 passes that ran through the entire game. This kind of pass was almost becoming Lin Rui's characteristic.
Thomas smiled and said, "I don't have that ability. That's his talent. He is a talented passer. He can always seize the fleeting opportunities on the court. We think it's difficult to pass this kind of ball, but it's easy for him."
Afterwards, the reporter interviewed Lin Rui.
The reporter asked: "How does it feel to play against Kobe tonight?"
Lin Rui smiled and said, "It's great, I've beaten him."
The reporter continued to ask: "You will send out a lot of unexpected passes, how did you do this?"
Lin Rui said: You only need to know your teammates and opponents, be familiar with their abilities, and then send the ball over."
Lin Rui said it very simply, but not every player can do it as easily as him.
The reporter continued to ask: "Why do you shoot a large number of three-pointers in the long distance?"
Lin Rui said: "That was my range, and then I was in the open position, so I took action."
The reporter asked: "Aren't you afraid that you will scold you if you don't join the teammates and coach?"
Lin Rui said: "I'm afraid, so I'll just throw him in."
The reporters were speechless...
The truth is indeed very simple...
There will be pressure if you don’t enter, so there will be no pressure if you enter.
After the interview.
Before Lin Rui could say goodbye to Taylor Swift, he took the bus to the airport.
It's finally time for the Knicks team to go home.
November 16.
The Knicks face the Miami Heat at home.
Heat Wade is absent.
The only old Hardaway and O'Neal's Heat are now a bad team. They have achieved 2 wins and 5 losses in the first seven games, and they have basically lost against strong teams.
However, when encountering the Knicks and Lin Rui, O'Neal said: "That No. 1 pick has been very high-profile recently. I will let him bite the sharks!!"
Others think the Heat is weak, but O'Neal doesn't think so.
O'Neal felt that as long as Wade returns, he and Wade join forces may still become the championship team.
Although O'Neal's data has dropped to 14.2 points and 7.8 rebounds per game this season, O'Neal is still confident in his strength.
He felt that the league was still immersed in the shark's domination.
"I will educate Lin and let him feel the intensity of NBA."
"You are all too weak, and you are actually suppressed by a rookie and can't lift your head up."
O'Neal now likes to speak out at the media, especially when asking Lin Rui's questions, O'Neal always likes to attract some attention.
Coming to New York made O'Neal feel excited.
Lin Rui was not interested in quarrel with O'Neal.
O'Neal didn't have any bad intentions, he just had to deal with his mouth.
Barkley is his golden partner.
At the beginning of this game, Lin Rui didn't feel good, and he made a series of three-pointers.
This made the Knicks fans who were watching the ball sigh.
They want to see Lin Rui make a very long three-pointer.
Seeing that the home basket seemed to no longer recognize him, Lin Rui had to turn his attention to the organizational offense.
Fortunately, after returning to home, the other Knicks players felt back. The outside line was terrible in the last game, but tonight it was terrible in the outside line.
In the first 8 minutes of the start, under Lin Rui's lead, the Knicks made a three-pointer, and they gave the Heat a 22-8 offensive.
The offense drove the defense, the Heat's offensive efficiency became very low, and O'Neal and Hardaway were both restricted.
O'Neal did not fulfill his promise to teach Lin Rui a lesson before the game. Instead, his own layup was blocked by Lin Rui.
The replay on the big screen once made O'Neal very embarrassed.
In the second quarter, Lin Rui, who was not accurate on the outside, found his touch. He made 6 of 8 shots from outside the three-point line, and cheers from Madison Garden Arena were one after another, and the fans were satisfied.
Under the leadership of Lin Rui, the gap between the two teams continued to widen.
The first half was over.
The score of the two teams reached 65-45, and the Knicks led by up to 20 points at home.
In the third quarter, the Heat strengthened their three-point defense against Lin Rui on the outside, so Lin Rui scored with breakthroughs and low posts.
The Heat can never limit Lin Rui.
After the third quarter, the difference between the two teams reached 30 points, and Lin Rui did not play in the fourth quarter.
In the end, the score of this game was frozen at 123 to 83.
The Knicks beat the Heat with 40 points at home.
Lin Rui scored 32 points, 5 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks tonight.
Both of these seals were given to O'Neal.
O'Neal's speed now looks really too slow for Lin Rui.
Lin Rui even gave Shark a trash saying after the blocking: "Shake, go and commentate, stop playing basketball, your speed is no different from that of a retired player."
O'Neal could not fight back when facing Lin Rui's trash words.
David Lee scored 18 points and 11 rebounds, Randolph scored 12 points and 8 rebounds, Crawford scored 18 points, and Richardson scored 15 points.
On the Heat, O'Neal scored 10 points and 11 rebounds, Hardaway scored 14 points, 7 assists and 6 rebounds, and Ricky Davis scored 13 points and 4 assists.
Without Wade, the Heat looked like a team without any energy. They looked dull. They looked like a group of players who should go to the nursing home to play together, so the score difference became so big.
"The Knicks are awesome!!!"
"Lin Rui once again 3010, it's really easy."
"Lin Rui is the assist king in the new season."
"It's really a pleasure to watch Lin Rui pass the ball."
"I won seven consecutive games at the beginning, the Knicks are so good."
"Lin Crazy!!!"
"New York fans love Lin Rui."
As the fans said.
Lin Rui led the Knicks to win seven consecutive victories, which made the entire Madison Garden Arena boil, making it seem like everyone likes Lin Rui.
The Knicks have never experienced such a start, it's crazy.
After getting Lin Rui, the Knicks showed a completely different mental outlook from last season.
Fans and opponents in the league can feel the uniqueness of the Knicks this year.
Such a seven-game winning streak also made the picky New York media unable to find any of Lin Rui’s thorns!
Even though Lin Rui's moves are a bit swaying, those sways are not worth mentioning in the face of victory.
So, New York media began to brag about Lin Rui crazy because they found that fans like to watch this type of remark.
