Center first

Chapter 426
"Crazy East" This is a phenomenon that almost every basketball newspaper and magazine is exclaiming, because after the start of the regular season, the powers of the Eastern Conference are so fast to plunder victories, even the boss of the Western Conference, the Lakers. They have been left behind and are struggling to catch up, and the top four teams in the league are all Eastern teams. The Lakers can only grab the fifth place with a score of 14 wins and 3 losses.

This is because Kobe used two quasi-lore to get back the results. Without these two magical performances, I am afraid that the Lakers will now be behind the Hawks to catch up. Those Atlanta Hawks have also won 12 wins. 5 negative results, and the teams that have stumbled in their hands are not lacking in Western powers such as the Jazz and Suns. It can be said that the entire Eastern Conference is now showing a crazy situation.

The rankings among the top four in the league are only between one or two games. Among them, the Cleveland Cavaliers lost the most, and they only lost two games. In addition to losing to the Celtics in the battle, after they entered mid-November, they unexpectedly lost to the Charlotte Bobcats coached by Larry Brown at their home court, ending their 14-game winning streak. pace.

Although it was an accident, the process of losing the game was entirely due to the gap between Mike Brown and Larry Brown, the old guy's on-the-spot command and response. The little emperor under Mike Brown was always surrounded by the muscle groups set by Larry Brown. So, there was no chance to move around, and the newly joined Shaquille O'Neal still failed to play, and the little emperor who had no driving force still lost this game, although he said after the game that he lost It is a process that a team must go through, but everyone can see how upset this guy is on this night. After all, the little emperor saw that there was a person he most wanted to surpass sitting behind the coaching bench on the other side of the Bobcats. ,Michael Jordan.

Losing such a game in front of his seniors, maybe this is really a bad night for the little emperor, he lost his usual power in front of the goal he wanted to surpass, I really don’t know if it was that The god of basketball is blessing the Charlotte Bobcats. Anyway, when the little emperor is on the court, he can't feel the heat of his hands. Apart from a bunch of muscular men, the only thing that greets him is the sound of basketball hitting iron.

Losing a regular season game is usually not terrible, but now the East will have a lot of changes because of the result of a game. After the Cavaliers lost the game against the Bobcats, they have already been defeated The Miami Heat, which was chasing behind, surpassed in one fell swoop. Although the Cavaliers have achieved 14 wins and 2 losses, the record of Miami's 15-game win has begun to scare many people.

Now the most pressure may be the Orlando Magic. Although they are also in the southeastern region, they have already achieved an impressive record of 16 wins and 1 loss, ranking second in the league, but compared to Miami, which has not lost a game since the beginning of the season. As far as the Heat are concerned, they seem to have heard the footsteps of the pursuers behind them, especially Howard has begun to clearly feel that Lin Yi's current state is a bit scary.

Especially after the Orlando team just suffered a dull loss in the West. They were smashed on the floor by the Nuggets offensive lunatics in Denver. The Orlando team only scored 80 points in the entire game However, the opponent's 113 points have poked holes one after another in the leader of the southeast region, especially in the interior offense and defense. Martin and Nene made Howard unable to effectively catch the ball and attack. , and they also forced the big man to give a low-level performance of 30 turnovers and 5 fouls in more than 4 minutes of the game.

Perhaps a defeat is nothing to the consecutive victories of the Magic. Although they are not willing to stop the winning streak, they have made a perfect start that is rarely seen in team history. Although they lost to their opponents in the away game The gap of more than 30 points is a bit too painful for them, but now the Orlando people still give the highest praise to their performance, because these Magic players really deserve their praise.

But when Howard was about to take a break in garbage time, that annoying Nuggets Martin whispered a sentence in his ear, which made Howard, who was already frustrated enough, almost waved his fist, that annoying guy Behind Howard, there was only one sentence, "Compared to that kid in Miami, you are like an idiot, Warcraft? That is your IQ! Go back to Orlando, go back to your mother's arms before you can Get warm, this battle field isn't for you, big man!!!"

Martin probably didn't realize that his trash talk would cause such a reaction in Howard, maybe he just wanted the guy he and Nene locked up to have a bad night, but he didn't know that it would What angered Howard was not the sarcastic language, but his opening sentence, "Compared to that kid in Miami, you look like an idiot." This is the root of Howard's outburst.

It's not that Howard can't bear the seduction of trash talk. He has been working hard in this league for several years, and he has long been used to his opponents spraying all kinds of dirty words on him in a venting tone. After the match, he still has to endure the ridicule of his opponent, especially when the opponent compares him to Lin Yi, which will naturally make him furious. If it wasn't for Ewing and the others to grab this guy, maybe this would be another boxing match In view of the scuffle between the Heat and the Cavaliers last season, few teams dare to be rough on the field. What David Stein wants to rectify most now is the discipline of the field, but no one I want to hit a snag at this time. After all, the Jew is an extremely powerful guy. Howard still has to pay a fine of several thousand dollars for his uncool behavior on the court the day after the game.

It's no wonder Howard is under so much pressure now. Except for losing to Lin Yi in the Eastern Conference finals last season, almost every time he is mentioned by others as the future ruler of the center position, he has to be put on the same level as Lin Yi. Evaluate together, every time he will hear others praise that guy, but he will have more criticisms for himself, from technical moves to team leadership, he is behind that kid in an all-round way, maybe A kind of unwillingness is at work here. Howard abandoned a lot of things this summer and started to practice hard, but when he was on the field, he still had to hear that he was not as good as his opponent. The main cause of anger.

Another obvious reason is because Lin Yi's average rebounds per game has been tied with Howard after 30 games, tied for the first place in the league, and Lin Yi is on the scoring list Has quickly risen to the ranks of the top [-], the most important thing is that this guy's average game time has been controlled within [-] minutes, such a high efficiency has begun to make Howard, who has been training hard for a summer, feel scalp hair He felt that Lin Yi was putting pressure on him all the time, and it was more because of that kid's progress speed that he was speechless.

"That kid must be an alien, you better go to the state security department and dissect him, shit, I hardly have a day off this summer, but that guy is still giving me so much pressure, hell This is only his second year in the NBA, do I have to sacrifice all my time for training to be equal to him because of the existence of this guy?" When Howard was training alone with Ewing in private, He couldn't help complaining, he really didn't know that he had worked so hard, why he still couldn't keep a distance from that kid, that nasty guy behaved in the paint like a possessed ghost, following Howard's all the time behind.

Ewing really didn't know how to explain all this to Howard. After all, the big man in front of him was his apprentice. He saw with his own eyes how hard this black and strong guy was training this summer. Lin Yi's game video also stunned the former New York King Kong. If Lin Yi played so smoothly at the beginning of the season last season because everyone was unfamiliar with him, then this season he used his absolute dominance at the basket. Controlling everything that happened on the field, that kid's growth rate has surpassed Ewing's perception of everyone. Maybe that guy is really a BUG in the history of basketball, or he is more crazy than everyone else. train.

Maybe only the people from the Miami Heat know how crazy Lin Yi is on the training ground. It seems that the regular three-hour training every day can't satisfy this guy's appetite at all. He is more often training consciously , Every day he spends almost six or seven hours in the weight room and on the training ground. Even though Spoelstra has talked to him many times because of this issue, this kid still nodded and agreed. Still the same, it seems that his desire for the basketball court has completely exceeded the limit of a normal person, and even for a while Wade suggested that this guy see a psychiatrist. Flash really doubts whether this guy is Something is wrong with the nerves.

But only Lin Yi knew what he was doing, winning streak?Data ranking?Or the regular season MVP?Lin Yi's answer is NO, this guy just doesn't want to repeat the scene in Los Angeles a few months ago, he doesn't want to see his opponent clinking the trophy in front of him again to enjoy the victory, when Kobe holds up the finals MVP honor When he kissed the O'Brien trophy, Lin Yi knew how unwilling he was. He was not a guy who was used to losing. Everything he lost in the finals, he must win back this season. He must ensure that every action of his is perfect, every possible weakness is made up for, and every ball handling is no longer blind , He needs to practice hard, and he needs to let sweat erase the memory of that failure.

A guy who is demanding on himself will inevitably affect the people around him, but Lin Yi's demanding is only reflected on the field, and he takes the initiative to seek changes and actively cooperate with other people's offensive rhythm. There is such a guy in the team Among them, it is a kind of benefit. If this guy is still the main core of the team, then whoever is the head coach of this team will probably laugh out loud in the middle of the night, and the Filipinos are like this.

However, there are still people who know how to stop Lin Yi's desperate training methods. As long as Lin Yi practices on the training ground for more than three hours, he will always stop consciously, because there will always be people sitting on the edge of the training ground. A quiet figure was waiting for him there. Even Lin Yi, who couldn't move Spoelstra and Wade, always consciously stopped training because of the existence of this figure.

Lin Yuwei, the girl from Country Z with black eyes, always gives Lin Yi a dry towel after she stops, and when she sees Lin Yi panting to wipe off his sweat, she always puts a smile on the corner of her mouth. A charming smile appeared on his face. Wade met him once by chance. According to this guy, he could feel melting at that moment. There was no way, that smile was too gentle.

"That's some shit luck guy with such a sweet girl by his side and a superstar girl hovering around this guy, man, what a fucking human It's more popular than mad." Wade, who has reached the verge of divorce, is now jealous of Lin Yi, a lucky guy, but he doesn't know who this kid will choose in the end. It seems that this is a very difficult thing to do. Son.

After Lin Yuwei used the summer time to make up for the courses that were dropped in the previous stage, she returned to Miami Lin Yi at the beginning of the season. After all, after a summer of running around, she was always worried that Lin Yi had been injured. Although Lin Yi has a professional medical treatment team by his side, Lin Yuwei is always concerned about that big boy, maybe she is nostalgic for the feeling of being by his side.

Lin Yi's selfless training state will only stop because of Lin Yuwei, because he once found that quiet little duck, just sitting on the edge of the training hall and watching his every move, she doesn't talk much at all, Just watching so quietly, Lin Yi was really afraid that this quiet girl would sit like this forever, knowing how boring such repetitive training is, even those team members who stayed to accompany Lin Yi for special training He would also complain because of Lin Yi's crazy energy, let alone a little girl.

But Lin Yuwei didn't seem to think it was such a boring thing at all, she seemed to be willing to sit on the edge of the field and watch him like this, just like when she was in the stands at the University of Oregon, and the big man was in the stands. Running and jumping on the basketball court, she enjoyed such a quiet space very much, especially when all the training staff had left, only the boy's heavy breathing was left on the entire training ground, and the familiar breathing sound seemed to be It sounded in her ears, just like that morning of intimate contact, so clear, so moving her heart.

Although Lin Yi didn't know what the little duck was thinking, he wasn't selfish enough to let a girl just sit beside him in a daze. , he had no choice but to choose to shorten his training time. After all, he didn't want Lin Yuwei to cook nutritious meals for him and massage his old ankle injuries after dark when he returned home after training.

Although Lin Yi wanted Lin Yuwei to give up such tiring massage work many times, but only at this time, the little duck's stubbornness will be manifested. It is a stubbornness that Lin Yi cannot refuse. Only when the girl was young would she raise her hand in surrender to express her obedience, and when the slender fingers slid across her ankle, Lin Yi would often fall into a state of trance.

However, Lin Yuwei's re-arrival added a bit of popularity to his seemingly empty home. He would never face an empty room every morning after waking up. It shows the carefulness of a girl, and after that intimate contact, Lin Yi seemed to let his heart relax a lot. He would often take Lin Yuwei's tender hands inadvertently and sit in his living room. Go to enjoy the beautiful scenery as the sun sets, or send a tender hug some morning.

Although Lin Yuwei still blushed and gently pushed the big boy away, her obsession with that warm embrace had begun to become more and more serious, and sometimes she even had a feeling of expectation in her heart, that gentle embrace might It's a fatal temptation. Whenever Lin Yi hugs her, Lin Yuwei always feels this way. She really doesn't know if she will still keep her original goal of fair competition when Little Princess Taylor appears. The idea of ​​going down, maybe this is the exclusive desire of love, she has begun to be reluctant to let that embrace go away from her.

However, the NBA schedule does not leave much time for Lin Yi to love his children. After winning the No. 15 consecutive games, they finally began to face the other three strong teams in the Eastern Conference. It will start on November 11. , They will play five consecutive games in ten days, three of which are strong dialogues. The Celtics, Magic, and Cavaliers are all gearing up on their own sites and waiting for the Miamis. arrival.

The Miami Heat's journey to purgatory is about to begin. . .Waiting for their old opponents to sharpen their blades, what we need to see now is whether these crazy Miami people will retreat from the blades here. The dialogue between the strong is always the toughest talent You can have the last laugh, this will be a test of the Heat's absolute will, the first game, Boston. . .

(Uh... the Nuggets... this... can you still do it? A 3-1 against the injured Jazz? Are you sure you're not joking?)
