NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

"Patrick, we meet again." Lin Tian reached out to Ewing and gave him a high five. He didn't know if it was because they had known each other for a long time. Lin Tian looked at Ewing recently and felt that this guy was getting more and more handsome.

Of course, it's just a comparison with Ewing himself. If players other than Cassel are compared with Ewing, Ewing's appearance will still be completely blown away by everyone.

But in the final analysis, since this guy won the only championship in his career in 99 and made his career completely complete, his personality has become much calmer in the past two years, and the arrogance and violence that he had back then has long disappeared.

In addition, a group of old guys have already dispersed, so no matter where Ewing goes now, no matter what state the team is in, he always has a smile on his face.

For example, today is already the third game of the series. The Pacers easily won the first two games, beating the Knicks by 21 points and 15 points respectively.

If the team had lost like this in the past two years, Ewing would have been furious. Not to mention saying hello to Lin Tian, ​​he would have wanted to eat Lin Tian.

But now, Ewing is extremely happy!

We are all brothers who have fun together!

After all, he has won the championship and received a super-high annual salary of 1500 million a year. The team has no record pressure. The fans are also very tolerant of him. At least in the past few years, no New Yorkers have shouted for Ewing. Go for Olajuwon or O'Neal.

Hiss, but don’t tell me, this year might actually be the year where Ewing and Olajuwon’s trade values ​​are the closest, and a 1-for-1 exchange is the most likely year.

The glory of two cities, exchanging clubs in the twilight years of their careers, let alone it, is really fun!

After Lin Tian took the ball, he knocked it hard on the floor again. He rushed up at full speed and headed inside!

Ewing opened his arms under the basket and was not afraid at all. Even in his old age, he still had the energy of his youth to protect his three-point territory under the basket!

The Knicks lead by 6 points!

Originally, I had no hope for this game. Rather than coming to support the team, it is better to see all the Knicks fans who came to see Ewing say goodbye to him in the last game of his career. Now they are all here. Awesome!

The laziness and absent-mindedness of the first three quarters of the game completely disappeared, replaced by overwhelming cheers and shouts and crazy trash talk.

'Big Mom' Larry Johnson.

When Lin Tian had a bad taste and was thinking about this sunset red exchange, the third game of the first round of the series had already begun!

Although Ewing has aged and slowed down and has degenerated into an ordinary starting-level player, he still has the height after all. He easily defeated Ben, who was a head shorter than him, and gave the ball to Charlie Ward, the only old man in the team.

Lin Tian's words seemed to activate Ewing's ambition that had been squandered for a long time. Ewing then regained a little of his peak feeling, hitting 3 consecutive mid-range goals, leading the Knicks and The Pacers play back and forth!

And it's not just his shooting touch. Although Ewing's ability to protect the basket at the basket is not as good as that of himself in his peak period, his tall body and strong weight still have a certain deterrent effect, at least except for Lin Tian Except for Carter, everyone else in the Pacers will encounter huge challenges when attacking the basket.

"Shut up!" Ward is also considered Lin Tian's old rival. Every time the Knicks lose against Lin Tian, ​​his shadow will appear.

Lin Tian didn't bother to look at this kind of mediocre defense. He hit the ground with one hand and the basketball came to the inside. After receiving the ball, Ben easily dunked with both hands and scored the first kill for the team!

So this guy can be regarded as having been exposed to experience by Lin Tian. He knows very well that the best way to maintain dignity when facing Lin Tian is not to actively look for dignity!

If you lie flat, you will be tortured less often.

"Charlie, I heard that you are also preparing to retire?" Lin Tian quickly stood in front of Ward and launched an attack on this old opponent who was mediocre but very tough.

After picking and rolling with Weber, Lin Tian quickly pulled away to one side, and then rushed inside. Lin Tianren went all the way to the free throw line, and then Ewing, who was assisting in defense, slowly stepped forward and reached out to interfere.

Lin Tian still saved some face for Ewing with this goal and did not humiliate him with a crotch pass.

Official Lin is soft-hearted after all.

Then in the second quarter, although the team fell behind, Carlisle was not in a hurry at all. He did not take Lin Tian, ​​but let Carter and Miller lead the team to fight with the Knicks. The two sides were able to fight well. There was a time when they refused to give in to each other.

Apart from this obviously humiliating way, Lin Tianke showed no mercy at all. He shot outside and inside, split the ball and supported the ball. He was absolutely perfect, and the Knicks' defense was leaking in all directions!

Until almost 4 minutes into the second quarter, the score between the two sides was still very tight. The Pacers temporarily led the Knicks by one point at 34:33.

Therefore, after halftime, Ward immediately passed the ball to another old guy on the verge of retirement who had just ran out from the wing.

After all, it is the last game of his career and it is at home, so just treat it as a courtesy to the old man!

When the game came to the last 5 minutes of the fourth quarter, the Knicks actually took the lead!

After Houston's signature mid-range hit, Lin Tianze started a pick-and-roll at the top of the key. Facing this aging team with almost all of them past their prime, Lin Tianze attacked their inside line after the pick-and-roll and hit their legs and feet. The absolute disadvantage of being slow and slow to switch defenses is that it is accurate in one hit!

"Retirement battle?" Ewing snorted and said, "I won't retire in such despair! We won't be swept in this series!"

It's just that his current strength is really not good enough, and his defensive deterrence at the basket is not worth mentioning at all.

Carlisle is a guy who pays great attention to player load management and is very keen on finding ways to let the main players rest as much as possible. From this point of view, Carlisle has led the league for 20 years!

Even if he were to coach in a league 20 years later, he would be able to seamlessly fulfill the main players' desire for rest.

"Oh!"

"Patrick, you'd better make way for me! Otherwise, your retirement battle will be extremely miserable!"

91: 97!

"Back off, I will enter the league one year earlier than you." Ward rolled his eyes and said, "I can play for at least 10 more years!"

Of course, the so-called soft-heartedness means not playing through the crotch ball and not trying to knock Ewing down by changing directions.

Lin Tian didn't care about Ewing's defense at all, but jumped up directly towards him. After the two people collided in the air, Ewing's defense immediately collapsed as if struck by lightning, and his whole body was immediately hit by Lin Tian. fly!

Lin Tian, ​​on the other hand, was gliding all the way, making a layup with ease and scoring the ball steadily!

The Pacers' players on the field have also become Lin Tian, ​​Miller, Christie, Harrington and Webber.

As Ewing played, the rest of the Knicks seemed to have magically regained their youth. They swept away the dilemma of being beaten by the Pacers in the first two games. Johnson and Houston shot together. Hit, swish, score.
