Chapter 324 Run forward to catch up with the former self (fourth update!)
It's not an exaggeration to say that Billups was the instigator of the famous 58-point night.
On the night that made "I Cannon" heartbroken, Billups scored 17 points, 8 assists, and 3 rebounds. It seemed that the statistics were mediocre, but that night, Paul felt the oppression brought by this ugly man in front of him.
That night, Paul only scored 4 points and 6 assists, and his shooting percentage was only 28.6%. In that round of the series against the Nuggets, Paul averaged 16.6 points and 10.4 assists per game. In addition, he averaged 4.8 turnovers per game, his shooting percentage was limited to 41.1%, and his three-point shooting percentage was limited to 31.3%.
而和他对位的比卢普斯在那轮系列赛里场均能拿到22.6分、7.4次助攻，命中率为48.3%，三分命中率为65.5%, 场均失误只有1.2次。
Billups is a guard who is very good at using his own conditions and advantages, while Paul is another extreme of "civilian height", with strong defense and excellent strength.
Tonight's game against the Hornets, Lin Yi finally knew how Billups educated Paul. Billups was very good at using his height to interfere with Paul, forcing Paul to break through. Once Paul entered the Knicks penalty area, what was waiting for him was the "forest combination" of the Knicks inside.
Billups knows where his strengths are. Facing Paul, he won’t show off his skills, but focuses on stability. On the defensive end, he doesn’t allow Paul to score easily. Of course, all of this is easy to say, but you must know that Billups is facing Chris Paul!
The current Paul hasn't found his true love yet, the old German who changed his style of play in the future is now obsessed with training Lin Yi, and Harden, who will form the "light bulb" combination with him in the future, is still repairing the water pipes in the Thunder's sewer.
The Hornets trailed the Knicks by 8 points in the first quarter. The Hornets' three-point ability was mediocre. The offense was dominated by Paul and West's pick-and-roll. West had a mid-range shooting percentage of about [-]% in his peak period, but apart from him, the Hornets had no other offensive points.
The efficient Ariza assisted Lin Yi with six backcourt rebounds in this game. The Hornets hit the Knicks with their heads?
Paul didn't stop at the beginning of the second quarter, but Livingston caught me and played a post-up single. The more Paul played, the more uncomfortable he was. He knew that the Hornets might make it to the playoffs, but they definitely couldn't go far.
In the third quarter, Paul was still trying to chase points. After several singles, Lin Yi could vaguely see the shadow of the future St. Paul who touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals for the first time. Paul is such a persistent person. The stronger the opponent, the less he will admit defeat.
However, the Hornets have too many shortcomings, and the Knicks widened the point difference. In the fourth quarter, Paul knew that he was powerless, and even Lin Yi felt uncomfortable seeing that disappointed expression.
"Congratulations. I hope you can go further and further in the playoffs." After the game, Paul said to Lin Yi from the bottom of his heart.
Will setbacks, injuries knock Paul down?
Of course not, Lin Yi knew that the little man in front of him also had great energy, a ruthless person like Paul, even if the time was zero, he would not admit defeat.
Lin Yi patted Paul on the shoulder. This is the NBA. If you want to survive, you must defeat the group of geniuses around you. If you want to stand at the top, you must experience setbacks and failures, and then climb up again and climb towards the peak.
本场比赛保罗出战38分钟，21中11，其中三分球7中3，罚球4中4，拿到了29分、6篮板、7助攻。
If it weren't for Trevor Ariza's terrifying 11-for-1, Paul might not be able to get a large double-double tonight.
林易出战33分钟，19中10，其中三分球8中4，罚球6中6，拿到了30分、17个篮板、5次助攻的大号两双。
If the opponent can have a "Ariza" every night, Lin Yi is very confident to be the rebounding leader this season.
……
After defeating the Hornets, the Knicks flew back to the East, and their opponent in the next battle will be the Bobcats.
The fate of Milicic has also changed. Under the influence of Lin Yi, this "parallel importer" worked hard to lose weight, run, and practice shooting. In order to catch up with the highly anticipated self, this player who was born in the midst of the war can average 11.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks per game in the new season, making the Bobcats feel that they have found a treasure.
Bobcats fired Larry Brown at the end of last season, otherwise Milicic is likely to be suspended for assaulting the head coach.
The deviation of the historical trajectory has changed the fate of too many people, but Lin Yi believes that no team in the league will hire Larry Brown to coach.
In Charlotte, Milicic invited Lin Yi to his home for dinner, and even cooked the food himself. I have to say that this handsome Serbian guy cooks very well.
Milicic's younger sister, Yuna, is a tall and beautiful woman. She also has a good impression of Lin Yi. You know, her brother has been wearing the shameful nickname of "Human Victory Cigar" since he entered the NBA. Yuna hates Larry Brown, especially Lin Yi's success.
Lin Yi knew that in his previous life, Milicic was the only one who gained respect in Minnesota. After all, Minnesota is the origin of fighting and retreating, and coincidentally, Milicic's idol is Garnett.
Milicic is actually not as bad as people think. In fact, in the limited playing time, he is much tougher than some black tough guys.
The more Milicic's younger sister Yuna chatted with Lin Yi, the more she felt that Lin Yi knew everything. The two chatted from basketball to pop music, animation, and movies.
Yuna, who is 20 years old this year, is 188 cm tall and has an outstanding appearance. There is a reason for Milicic's good looks.
"Dako, I don't think it's time for you to give up on yourself. You are only 25 years old this year. Your current style of play is correct. As long as you believe in yourself, you will definitely be able to play in the NBA." Lin Yi encouraged Milicic.
Milicic nodded with a smile. After the meal, he also gave Lin Yi a gift. Milicic is a caring person. On Lin Yi's birthday last year, Milicic gave Lin Yi a newspaper silhouette sticker. This year, he carved a model of Lin Yi himself.
Lin Yi thought that Milicic was really a wonderful person, and he did such a good job of carpentry.
Under Yuna's strong request, Lin Yi and Milicic went to the basketball court in the backyard to play one-on-one for a while.
Milicic's basic skills are really good, and Yuna said a little wronged: "When my brother first entered the NBA, his dribbling was much better than now."
Technology is like this. If you don’t advance, you will retreat. Lin Yi said to Milicic: "Dako, you can't live in the shadow of your past self. You have to believe that your present self is stronger than before."
Although the abilities of shooting and dribbling have degraded, Milicic's muscles are real. The NBA is a place where supermen gather. Milicic has no real skills. How can the Huskies give him a mid-level contract in the future?
"Lin, you are so strong. Even if I didn't go astray, I can't compare with you." Milicic's admiration for Lin Yi is sincere, this guy is simply a monster.
In the Knicks last year, Milicic would not have been so miserable in one-on-one. Now one-on-one, there is no way to defend.
Lin Yi patted Milicic on the shoulder, maybe this is fate!
"Run hard, Darko, tell that guy named Larry Brown, you're not some human victory cigar, your name is Darko Milicic!"
Lin Yi's words made Milicic's body tremble, and he clenched his fist for a long time.
prove yourself!
Be sure to prove yourself!
