NBA: I have 3 but no D, and I still can’t dribble.

Chapter 231 Wade dunks: Lin, I know you can’t rebound!

The fans inside and outside the Madison Square Garden are equally excited. Whether Lin Fei is the strongest shooting guard in the NBA will be revealed tonight in the battle with the Heat.

Judging from the team record and personal data in the new season, the players who can compete for the current first shooting guard are none other than Kobe, Wade, Lin Fei, Iverson, Tracy McGrady and Carter.

Vince Carter continues to play with Jason Kidd in the Nets this season, averaging 25.8 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal per game. The overall data is actually slightly better than the same period in the original world.

This is naturally related to Lin Fei's butterfly effect, which inspired and promoted the positive performance of more stars in the league.

But Carter's personal character is destined not to be as persistent as Kobe and Wade, nor does he have much ambition, so his average of 25.8 points per game is still the bottom among the six shooting guards.

Moreover, the New Jersey Nets are dual-core driven, and their record is only ranked sixth in the Western Conference, not as good as the Knicks led by Lin Fei's single-core team.

Therefore, Carter has gradually drifted away from the league's No. shooting guard, and there is basically not much possibility of outbreaks and counterattacks in the future.

Then there’s Tracy McGrady. Although after Dayao left, McGrady’s position as the team’s boss has been further consolidated, and his personal shooting rights have also increased.

In the new season, they averaged 28.3 points per game, but their shooting percentage was only 43%. The Rockets' record was even worse, ranking only 10th in the Western Conference.

Facts have proved that McGrady's leadership ability is very average, and he is only half as good as his brother Carter.

Let's talk about Allen Iverson. After coming to the Nuggets, he formed a golden double gun with Anthony. His average points and shots per game are similar to "Melon".

Iverson, the peak player who won the regular season MVP, obviously no longer exists, and the team's status is no longer an absolute single-core.

As Iverson, Tracy McGrady and Carter gradually fall behind, the only three players who can truly compete for the league's current No. shooting guard are Kobe, Wade and Lin Fei.

In the opening game of the new season, Lin Fei has already defeated Kobe Bryant with a 67-point winning performance.

Tonight's Christmas game, the head-to-head confrontation between Lin Fei and Wade, may truly establish his honor as the league's number one shooting guard.

"Dwayne publicly announced before the game that tonight he will be facing off against his old teammate Lin Fei alone. The Heat will never double-team from the outside. This will be a great show!"

"Kobe Bryant said the same thing in the opening game. Wasn't he completely defeated by our Lin in the end?"

"That's right. Although Wade is young and full of energy, in terms of defensive strength alone, he is not necessarily as strong as Kobe. It feels like he is still not up to the level of first defense!"

"After entering December, Lin reduced his individual singles shots and strengthened his tactical cooperation with his teammates, which also caused his average points per game to drop to 12 points. However, in tonight's Christmas game, Lin must not be too You are so selfless, you must try your best to fight Dwayne!"

"Hate fans all say that without Lin, the Heat are still the strongest team in the league. Doesn't that mean that Lin won the championship with the Heat in the previous two seasons? Ridiculous, absolutely intolerable, we must play tonight Blast the Flash!”

The fans at the scene were chatting excitedly one after another, looking at the center of the stadium with burning eyes.

Marbury held the ball high on the left side, facing "White Chocolate" Jason Williams, and listened to the fans in the front row chanting slogans such as "Give Lin the ball" and "Knock Dwayne out".

Marbury was naturally not greedy for credit. He smiled and passed the ball to Lin Fei, who was facing Wade outside the top three-point line.

Wade had long understood that he and Lin Fei would not be able to escape this battle, so he had to put in all his efforts tonight.

Quickly getting up close and defensive, with his stronger and stockier body, Wade took the initiative to challenge Lin Fei and interfere with his dribbling and shooting rhythm.

"Lin, I have been waiting for this day for a long time! If you still treat me as a friend, then show your strongest strength!"

"If you can get another 60+, or even 70+, game over my head, then I will be the first to applaud you!"

"But if you show mercy, I will be the first to despise your weakness!"

Facing Wade's enthusiasm, Lin Fei stood sideways to protect the ball, his eyes sharp and keen, and a gentle smile appeared at the corner of his mouth:

"Dwayne, the word mercy has never been found in my dictionary!"

"What you just said is also what I want to say to you!"

Before Lin Fei finished speaking, he withstood Wade's sudden change of direction. While mobilizing the opponent's defensive focus, he dribbled back sharply under his hips and quickly retreated to find space for a shot.

Wade reacted quickly, always following Lin Fei's pace, not giving the opponent any room to take action, and not worried at all about Lin Fei's breakthrough.

As a teammate with the Heat for two years, Wade can be said to know Lin Fei best. Lin Fei's dribbling attributes began to soar rapidly in his second year with the Heat. In games and daily training, Wade knows everything about Lin Fei.

Now Lin Fei has gradually developed a good layup ability, and Wade is always paying attention to it.

Before this Christmas game, Wade also carefully studied the video highlights of Lin Fei's new season games with the Knicks and determined that Lin Fei did not shoot from mid-range.

Because all of Lin Fei's sports game scores this season come from two situations: one is outside the three-point line, and the other is within 2 feet of the basket.

Although the "magic ball theory" of Rockets general manager Mo Gou has not yet been proposed during this period, the small ball whirlwind of the Rockets and Warriors has not yet emerged.

But the Knicks coaching staff, and even the Heat coaching staff led by Van Gundy, have all studied the "Money Ball Theory."

The different playing styles of Lin Fei and Wade during the Heat period actually verified the principle of the "Magic Ball Theory".

At that time, Lin Fei's offensive sweet spots were all outside the three-point line, while Wade's offensive sweet spots were all at the basket. The combination of the two was the essence of the "Magic Ball Theory".

Tonight, Pat Riley also repeatedly told Wade that when defending Lin Fei, he must guard against his outside shots. In addition, he must guard the basket inside the penalty area.

In this way, Lin Fei's scoring can be restrained to the greatest extent.

"Whoosh!"

On the court, Lin Fei made continuous changes and stepped back, but was still unable to get rid of Wade's close defense.

At this moment, Lin Fei also knew very well that Wade, who was gritting his teeth and puffing out his cheeks, was really trying his best to suck the milk.

Seeing that Wade's determined defense failed to prevent a breakthrough, Lin Fei did not act recklessly. Instead, after retreating and worshiping Buddha, he suddenly lowered his center of gravity and accelerated, directly breaking through Wade's side.

There was wind at Wade's feet, he rolled over and chased after Lin Fei completely. He was not afraid of him breaking through the basket, but afraid that he would retreat to the three-point line again.

Seeing the situation, Lin Fei did not hesitate. He directly accelerated and dribbled into the penalty area. Facing the help of the defense, he made a decisive shot with a small throw and a high rebound.

"Bang!"

The basketball bounced on the rim, but the aim was still a little off after all.

"Snapped!"

The defensive rebound was roughly captured and given to Wade immediately.

Lin Fei shook his head and sighed. With 82 attributes for a breakthrough layup, he still couldn't perform stably in high-end games.

Looking back, Wade held the ball and drove to the basket, and Lin Fei's sideways pursuit and interference were also very good.

Although Lin Fei has never been able to compare with peak Wade in terms of absolute speed and explosive power, his rich defensive experience and height and wingspan advantages still caused a lot of trouble for Wade.

"Whoosh!"

Wade was focused on working hard, leaping into the air against Lin Fei, and with the help of his strong waist and abdominal strength, he tilted his body and threw the ball towards the basket.

Lin Fei jumped up and raised his long arms, almost completely covering Wade's shooting space, but the basketball still flew past his fingertips.

The ball also bounced around the basket a few times, but this time it luckily fell into the net.

"Shh!"

Knicks (0): (2) Heat.

Wade, who fell to the ground, clenched his fists tightly and puffed his cheeks excitedly at Lin Fei:

"Lin, I won this first round!"

Lin Fei also smiled and bent down and stretched out his hand to pull Wade up, but his words suddenly became sharp:

"Dwayne, whoever laughs last will smile the most beautifully!"

At the same time, Lin Fei was also shocked in his heart. Wade is obviously stronger now than last season.

Being able to win the regular season MVP in the second season of his career, with two championship rings in hand, plus successful knee surgery in advance,

All of this has prompted Dwayne Wade to become stronger in this parallel world, which is actually the same as Kevin Garnett's peak expansion.

Returning to the offensive end, Lin Fei once again faced Wade with the ball, deliberately starting an attack one step ahead of the center line, hoping to break through and get rid of the opponent before reaching the three-point line and taking a quick shot.

But this time Wade's defense was very sharp, and he actually chose to go around and take the risk to steal. This was something Lin Fei did not expect. Faced with Wade's extremely quick shot, the ball was instantly slapped to the ground.

"Snapped!"

Wade's talent was clearly demonstrated in this steal. He flew up and picked up the basketball to hold up Lin Fei, speeding up the breakthrough and heading straight to the frontcourt.

"Whoosh!"

"omg, Dwayne stole Lin, this is incredible!"

"In this peak showdown between the two shooting guards tonight, Dwayne clearly had the upper hand at the start!"

In the passionate explanation,

Relying on the attributes of a small steel cannon, Wade continued to change direction despite Lin Fei's confusion, forced his way into the frontcourt penalty area, made an emergency stop, and threw the basketball directly to the steel backboard on the basket near the free throw line.

"boom!"

The basketball flew over Lin Fei's head, which posed a problem for Lin Fei.

At the critical moment, Lin Fei could only turn over and jump up, holding up Wade and preparing to fight for the defensive rebound.

But at this time, Lin Fei's embarrassing rebounding attribute made him completely unable to judge the exact landing point of the rebound, and the timing of his jump was too early.

"Whoosh!"

Wade also took the opportunity to step forward, suddenly jumped up from Lin Fei's side, threw himself and grabbed the offensive rebound, and slammed the basketball into the basket almost over Lin Fei's head.

"Boom!"

Wade scored +2 and rebounded +1.

Lin Fei, who was dunked, fell to the ground in a daze. It can be said that this time the offense and defense were completely destroyed by Wade.

In Lin Fei's entire NBA career, it was rare that he was singled out and beaten like this.

After landing, Wade was obviously in the best condition. He slapped his chest and roared. At the same time, he leaned into Lin Fei's ear and whispered softly:

"Lin, I'm very sorry, I know you can't rebound!"

Lin Fei's little nose couldn't help but twitch, this Wade is really bad!

Knicks (0): (4) Heat.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Isaiah Thomas quickly called a long timeout.

At the beginning, Wade scored two consecutive goals on both offense and defense, which Thomas never expected.

The fans at Madison Square Garden also had surprised expressions on their faces at this time. They couldn't believe that Lin Fei actually completed a flying dunk after being intercepted by Wade.

"omg, what's going on? Is Lin feeling unwell tonight? Why can't even Dwayne handle it?"

"Even if he can't completely beat Dwayne, with Lin's strength, he can still fight with the opponent, right? Could it be said that Dwayne is already stronger than Kobe now?"

"Lin was actually thrown into the trap by Dwayne? Oh my god, did I really read that right?"

"omg...I seriously suspect that Lin is match-fixing!"

In front of the commentary desk on the sidelines, Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith were obviously incredible at Wade's highlight performance of killing Lin Fei twice in the opening game.

"It's hard to imagine that an NBA double-team star for two consecutive years, the most integrated offensive and defensive player among active shooting guards, would actually be intercepted by Dwayne and complete a self-throw and dunk, and it was a heart-wrenching dunk!"

"But we must admit that as Lin's teammate for two seasons, Dwayne obviously understands Lin's strengths and weaknesses on the court better than anyone else. He is also obviously more prepared than Lin for tonight's game. !”

"But the game has just begun. Let's look forward to Lin's response to Dwayne Wade!"

Little Swifty, who was sitting in the front row, also frowned and asked Qin Dongmei next to her: "Sister Qin, what's going on with Lin? Isn't he in a bad state these past two days?"

Qin Dongmei shook her head and sighed, also confused: "He has been in good condition these past two days, and he has made special preparations for this Christmas war!"

"Keep watching the game. It's normal for Wade to hit one or two goals at the beginning. After all, Dwayne knows his weaknesses best!"

Taylor pouted and said in disbelief: "Lin is so perfect, what other weaknesses can he have?"

Qin Dongmei chuckled and leaned into Little Swift's ear, lowering her voice and saying: "Taylor, haven't you noticed this all along? He... can hardly rebound!"

Seeing Taylor's widened eyes, Qin Dongmei quickly put a slender white finger to her mouth, signaling the little girl to keep quiet.

On the court, the timeout comes back and the game continues.

When the Knicks attacked, Lin Fei directly dribbled the ball in the backcourt. Facing Wade, he was obviously eager to regain the court.

"Dwayne, the buckle you threw and grabbed was very beautiful. One day, I will give it back to you twice as much!"

While talking, Lin Fei dribbled directly to the logo area. Although this position was more than 13 meters away from the basket, Wade still didn't dare not to quickly stick to it.

After all, Lin Fei's three-point shooting range is really terrifying.

"Whoosh!"

Faced with Wade's close defense, Lin Fei took advantage of the situation and turned his back to dribble deftly. He directly leaned against Wade to complete the breakthrough. While traveling at high speed, he made another crotch change of direction.

Leaving Wade behind, he accelerated and went straight, taking two steps to reach the top of the arc and one step to the left of the three-point line.

Facing Wade's sideways attack, Lin Fei didn't hesitate at all. He directly pulled up on the spot and shot a lightning three-pointer elegantly.

Wade was currently on the right back of Lin Fei. He was obviously half a beat too slow when he jumped to defend. He could only try his best to keep his body in order to avoid hitting Lin Fei directly.

In such a situation where the defender is defending from behind or from the side, the referee will definitely give the defender a foul.

"Shh!"

The next moment, the sound of a basketball hitting the net suddenly sounded. After Lin Fei landed, he turned around gracefully and raised a finger to the helpless Wade:

"Dwayne, the fun has just begun, this is the first one!"

As Lin Fei hit Wade's three-pointer in isolation, the slightly depressing atmosphere in Madison Square Garden instantly became high-pitched, shouting in unison for a good shot.

The Heat attacked, and Wade caught the ball in the high post and once again relied on his speed and footwork to overpower Lin Fei, but this time Lin Fei's pursuit followed him closely, coupled with the key defense of Eddie Curry under the basket.

Wade can only choose to hit the ball to O'Neal in the air confrontation.

O'Neal caught the ball on the left side of the basket and jumped up directly, grabbing the ball with both hands and slamming it into the basket.

"Boom!"

After the dunk landed, Shark was also glowing and spat at Eddie Curry:

"Boy, don't be complacent about your help. Letting me go is a very dangerous thing!"

"Before I turn 40, you guys will never take advantage of me!"

Compared with O'Neal at the same time in the original world, the 34-year-old Shark is indeed more energetic and relatively healthier.

After all, in the two consecutive championships with Lin Fei and Wade, especially the second championship, O'Neal has always been in a half-win state.

He was not broken down by Pat Riley's overly harsh training, and his health was not overdrawn by the intense schedule.

In addition, after Lin Fei left, O'Neal completed a moderate weight loss in the new season and returned to his best condition.

All of this makes Shaquille O'Neal in the current 06-07 season significantly stronger than the same period in the original world.

Looking back, Lin Fei continued to play 4 meters outside the three-point line, attracting Wade's close defense.

"Whoosh!"

This time Wade tried to take risks again, but Lin Fei did not give Wade another chance.

Taking advantage of the situation, Lin Fei made a crossover and took advantage of Wade's risky steal. He instantly opened a sufficient distance from the opponent. He suddenly jumped up more than 3 meters away from the three-point line, bent his bow and shot another arrow.

Wade quickly turned around to defend, but once again lost the opportunity.

Facing a top shooter like Lin Fei, any small mistake may ruin an all-out defense.

"Shh!"

The basketball went hollow into the net, and Lin Fei hit another three-pointer.

"Dwayne, this is the second one!"

Lin Fei turned around and returned to defense with a smile on his lips, his touch already on fire.

Knicks (6): (6) Heat.

There were thunderous cheers at the scene, and Wade also felt that the glory on his face after he threw himself and dunked on Lin Fei disappeared in an instant.

On the offensive end, Wade once again tried to break through Lin Fei, but this time Lin Fei's defense was airtight. He caught the slightest flaw in Wade's change of direction, struck out quickly with his long arm, and directly knocked away the basketball.

"Snapped!"

This was a tit-for-tat flying steal. Lin Fei picked up the basketball and went straight to the frontcourt. Faced with Wade's gritted pursuit,

He flew two steps across the center line and then stopped and moved laterally. He jumped up decisively with his elegant body, ignored Wade's sideways defense, and shot another three-pointer from far away.

Wade's defense was completely unrestrained this time, but the basketball still suddenly flew through the space less than 3 centimeters from his fingertips, turning into a shooting star and shooting straight into the net.

"Shh!"

"Beep!"

The ball goes in and the buzzer sounds, 3+1.

Lin Fei, who landed crookedly on the ground, took a few steps and then turned over and raised three fingers to Wade, who looked indignant:

"Dwayne, this is the third one!"
