Chapter 108: The Generation of Miracles

The news that the Knicks defeated the Miami Heat 115 to 98 in the first regular season of the new season made many Knicks fans ecstatic.

The Heat are a strong team in the playoffs, and the Knicks were the third-worst team in the league last season. Now the Knicks easily beat the Heat in the away game, making Knicks fans feel that they have really become stronger.

The Knicks fans praised Lin Yi very much. You must know that even if the Knicks performed well in the preseason, many people bad-mouthed them. After all, no one would take the preseason game seriously.

On ESPN's team strength list for the new season, the Knicks are only ranked 21st. This is ESPN's evaluation of Lin Yi's potential.

The most important thing is that the first-round game between the Knicks and the Heat was very exciting!

The Knicks made an astonishing 41 three-pointers in the game, hit 19 goals, and the hit rate was as high as 46%.

The Knicks also contributed many dunks in this game. Lin Yi showed the fans a brand new self. He can not only hold the ball as a high-post fulcrum, but also play low-post tactics in the low post.

The Knicks fans can't wait to hug Lin Yi and kiss. God, the Clippers must think we are too pitiful to assist us with such an excellent player.

Lin Yi performed well in his career debut. He made 6 of 10 two-pointers, 1 of 3 three-pointers and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 19 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists and 3 blocks in the game. Comprehensive data on steals.

And with such a double-double, Lin Yi only played 30 minutes.

In fact, the Knicks cost the Heat in three quarters. In the fourth quarter, the Heat insisted on letting Wade play for five minutes before regaining some points.

D'Antoni originally wanted Lin Yi to play for a while, but Lin Yi suggested that D'Antoni take advantage of the big lead to perform a personnel rotation.

D'Antoni rubbed his head. It's strange that rookies from other people's families are eager to play for a while, but why do rookies from our family think that they are passive and sabotage?

D'Antoni accepted Lin Yi's suggestion, because the point difference between the two teams has indeed widened, and there is no need to waste the physical energy of the main players.

In this game, Gallinari scored the highest score for the Knicks. He shot crazy three-pointers throughout the game. He took 17 shots and hit 8 goals. He made 6 of 8 free throws, added two layups, and scored a career-high 34 points and 5 rebounds.

Among them, the number of three-pointers made is a career high.

Veteran Harrington played 34 minutes and scored 20 points and 8 rebounds. Chris Duhon had 10 points, Tony Douglas had 12 points, and David Lee had 10 points.

Knicks fans believe that if Nate Robinson hadn't forced down New York's shooting percentage, New York might have lost the Heat in this game.

The Flash Wade, who scored 47 points, 9 rebounds and 8 assists, failed to save the Heat's fate. Beasley, who was 1 in 11, and Chalmers, who was 1 in 7, were simply the undercover agents sent by the opposite side.

After the game, Gallinari said excitedly in an interview: "I think the arrival of Lin has completely changed our entire team. I like the tactics arranged by Coach D'Antoni very much!"

"Lin is an all-round fighter. He encouraged me to take more shots and made my confidence stronger. It's unbelievable. He's not a rookie at all. He's more like a seasoned veteran. The teammate is more comfortable and I enjoy playing with him."

Harrington said to reporters: "Obviously, we have become stronger! Yes, we have really become stronger. In my opinion, Lin is a player like Tim Duncan. He is willing to pick and roll for his teammates, run, and card position, rebounding. Believe me, if he wants to, he can get 30 points on 20 shots per game,

But he won't do that because he is our leader. "

D'Antoni also spoke highly of Lin Yi, "To be honest, being able to coach Lin is a very lucky thing. He has a very high golf quotient and has his own excellent judgment on the situation on the court."

When asked by reporters whether Lin Yi's performance in his rookie season would surpass LeBron James, D'Antoni said: "Their styles are completely different, and their positions are also different. Lin can mobilize the whole team. He is the core of our team."

D'Antoni has calculated everything, but he never expected that the reporters would catch the gap between the lines in his words. Lin Yi was able to mobilize the whole team, which means that you say that the emperor can't mobilize the whole team, so you are abolishing his teammates?

D'Antoni instantly became the public enemy of those crazy Jamies in the league.

"D'Antoni get out of the NBA! Do you know that the other 29 teams in the league can steal the scalp for LeBron?"

"LeBron James is the most selfless player! He will even give up the lore to his teammates!"

"I would like to exchange my ten years of life for my emperor's health, and win six championships, comparable to Jordan..."

Lin Yi was also taken aback when he saw the news report. He didn't expect his teammates to praise him so much.

In fact, this is not difficult to understand. Many people in this New York Knicks team are on contract years, and they all want to produce beautiful data in exchange for a big contract.

But if New York decides to continue to perform poorly, to be honest, the statistics of the bottom team may not be very attractive, but if New York can make the playoffs, they can still play beautiful statistics, which is really important for these players. made money.

Lin Yi is the No. 1 pick. If he really wanted to grab the shot, these Knicks players would not dare to confront him. With Lin Yi's popularity, as long as he asks the management to trade away a few thorns, this A team is his team alone.

With Durant's success first, New York won't mind letting Lin Yi play iron for a season to exercise.

To put it bluntly, Lin Yi gave them hope, and Lin Yi is not the kind of player who only cares about playing alone, regardless of whether his teammates live or die.

As for the controversy caused by D'Antoni's interview, Lin Yi let it go with a smile. LeBron was still very strong during this period. Although the three-pointer was a problem, his impact and speed absolutely topped the league.

Lin Yi knew that the time to wrestle with LeBron James had not yet come, but it would be hard to say when he was upgraded to a superstar.

...

After the first round of the new NBA season is over, there is another topic that people are interested in.

That's the slogan the 2009 rookies shouted at NBA stars.

The following grams on.

In the first game of the Golden State Warriors, Stephen Curry scored 18 points and 6 assists under the strict defense of his teammate Monta Ellis, and hit 3 three-pointers.

In the Thunder's first game, James Harden, who played as the sixth man, happily led the bench to score 14 points, 5 assists and 4 rebounds.

In the first game of the Raptors, DeRozan, who was regarded as "only dunking", scored 19 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists in Bosh's sluggish state, and also hit a three-pointer at the top of the arc.

In the first game of the Timberwolves, Jonny Flynn also scored 15 points and 4 assists.

The most important thing is that the teams of these outstanding rookies in the 2009 class all won the first round!

Wade also mentioned this topic after the game against the Knicks. He believes that the 2009 rookie is seriously underestimated.

Wade said that the scouts miscalculated the market of this draft. "I like the momentum of the newcomers. After all, if you play with a bunch of acquaintances every year, you will quickly get tired of the league."

Kobe Bryant touched his chin in an interview, and Black Mamba said that he recently came up with a book, "I think these outstanding young people need guidance."

Spurs coach Popovich complained: "I think NBA scouts seem to need to study hard. Basketball is not a sport that can be played only by physical fitness. The rookies in the 2009 class have high ball quotients. Especially Lin, I think New York will definitely make the playoffs as long as it doesn't lose the chain this season."

Popovich likes Lin Yi very much, especially Lin Yi's golf quotient and overall situation view, God, what a perfect successor to Duncan.

After knowing Popovich's evaluation of himself, Lin Yi just smiled.

Even if the Spurs have the right chips, Lin Yi will not go to the Spurs, but Lin Yi is very clear that the No. 21 rookie has been calling for retirement every year, but every time in the playoffs and finals, He tortured a group of super giants who were at their peak to death.

Sometimes Lin Yi even suspects that old Duncan also has a system that can give him a healing spell at any time.

Successor to Duncan? Lin Yi wouldn't do that kind of thing.

The future is too far away, let's fight for the present!

He wants to be his first person in New York with peace of mind.

NBA Commissioner David Stern immediately realized that this was a topic that could be hyped up after seeing the news, and Lin Yi was always able to surprise him.

After the empty city, there is another following gram.

This is very topical news.

"We can call them the "Generation of Miracles", because they themselves are not favored, and it is a miracle that they can be played." Adam "Joke" suggested.

Stern gave the "joke" a thumbs up. Sure enough, the hype is still strong with Xiao Hua.

It's a pity that Shafen was reimbursed, otherwise it would have happened to be a six-person team.

Asian Durant, the Big Devil, Big Hard Forest, the new New York magician Lin Yi, Harden who hasn't started Sharingan and can't touch porcelain, Stephen Curry, the elementary school student who was glared at by Ellis, the depressed German Rozan, Flynn who has not yet been scrapped, each has its own characteristics and styles.

Oh, by the way, Shafen was called the "Sixth Man of Illusion" by fans because of injuries.
