My basketball vision is different
Chapter 191: Playing wild and grasping the growth path!
Playing against the Memphis Grizzlies at FedEx Arena, the Pacers soldiers who arrived early began pre-game warm-up training.
When Paul George was about to warm up, he suddenly patted Lin Shaojie quietly.
"Lynn, have you seen Miles (Plumley)?"
"No, I didn't see him when I got on the plane."
Miles, who was in the same rookie class as Lin Shaojie, was the forward player selected by the Pacers. Everyone knew that if Lin Shaojie hadn't appeared, he would have been one of the players the Pacers took first.
For a team that could have reached a 60-point rating entering the playoffs, the Pacers are at least a 70-point team. After all, they are regulars in the playoffs.
If he can compete with the Big Three like the Heat for multiple games, he can at least add ten points to reach the eighty-point level, which is a standard giant killer.
There is a very obvious reason why they lost to the Heat, that is, no one can compete with LeBron on the front line, so they need a big man.
But who could have known that Larry Bird would invest a lot of money at the last moment like he discovered a treasure in the draft!
A defender was selected!
Are George Hill and Paul George not enough?
Now it seems that Larry, who released George Hill and Paul George and allowed the rookies to control the ball, is really a genius!
In fact, playing for a team like the Pacers has its pros and cons.
It was a good time for Paul George when he joined the team. The boss of the team took good care of him, and his talent made him an indispensable member of the Pacers team in the second half of the 2010 season.
In just half a season, Paul George made an outstanding mark and became the Pacers' starter.
But for Miles Plumlee, the time for him to join the team was not so good.
The most "cruel" living environment this season is actually the Pacers' defensive line. Ninety-nine percent of the new members joining the team have been defined as "Lynn's substitutes" from the beginning.
The rookie that the Pacers acquired at a huge cost has been molded into an important member of the Pacers' defense from the very beginning.
Therefore, draft picks like Orlando Johnson and members like Ben Hansbrough almost have no more playing time.
Because Lin Shaojie controlled the point guard position, George Hill moved to his favorite shooting guard position.
Although the Pacers have begun to implement large-scale rotations after just over a month of the season, for those on the back line, their living environment is still "harsh!"
But none of this exists for Miles Plumlee.
The small forward line is tightly controlled by Paul George. He is also the player who plays the most minutes on the team after Danny Granger was injured.
But at power forward, in addition to David West, big men like Myles Plumlee and players who can even play center have more opportunities to play.
But even in this relaxed environment, Miles actually lost to Tyler Hansbrough and also lost to Sam Young.
In terms of talent, both of them are inferior to him.
But unfortunately, Miles is constantly in self-exile.
Compared with other substitutes who did not get enough playing time, his training was even more perfunctory. Everyone could see his carelessness. Gradually, fewer and fewer people could be friends with him.
Because everyone knows that the uniform staff does not like such players, and Lin Shaojie does not like such players either.
Whether your performance is good or not is the result, but training is a process. You have to show your value over time. Even if you don't have a good result, you still have to rely on the process to attract the attention of the coaching staff.
Just like Tyler Hansbrough, he suddenly became an important member of the bench by relying on his daily training!
Regarding Miles's perfunctory attitude, someone can remind you once, twice, but not a third time.
Lin Shaojie is the kind of person who can make friends with everyone, but there is a prerequisite: you must be motivated.
You don't have to be as flattering as Lance Stephenson. You can show it with your actual actions, just like David West. Everyone knows that West never has to say anything in front of Lin Shaojie.
What a nice thing to say, he is just a veteran with airs.
Or an old guy like Tyler Hansbrough. In fact, everyone knows that Tyler Hansbrough didn't like Lin Shaojie at first, but after a while, the former was conquered by the Pacers' No. 3 pick.
And he also used his actual actions to express his "respect for the team boss!"
Therefore, Lin Shaojie can get along very well with such players, and even brought commercial contracts from China to David West and others.
The Pacers should not gain too many players from this.
"I just heard that he was sent to the Development League."
Listening to Paul George's words, Lin Shaojie responded noncommittally.
"Last month, Frank asked me what I thought of him, and I said I had no opinion!"
"oh!"
Paul George gets it.
No opinion is the greatest opinion.
Regardless of whether the evaluation is good or bad, "good" is praise and encouragement; "bad" can also be regarded as motivation.
When you enter the workplace, if there are still people who find fault with your work, think about it from another perspective, this person is already a "good person!" Unless you are the kind of person who causes trouble for no reason, if you meet that kind of smiling tiger, you usually smile, hello, me, everyone
Well, the one who shoots you in the back at the critical moment is the real ruthless person.
How could a player like Miles be unaware that he was suddenly being sent down? There must be warning signs, and he should be aware of it himself.
So this time the Pacers have one less rookie this year.
As for the Pacers, they "lost" a six-foot-nine power forward!
At the same time, the Heat front office in Miami urgently recalled Pittman from the Development League.
Halfway through the season, various injuries began to strike.
Their defensive center Joel Anthony injured his ankle, 3D player Sean Battier strained his quadriceps, and the Heat's already stretched interior line was even more short of a major general.
The center who was selected by them in 2010 was urgently recalled at this critical moment.
Entering and exiting is like the reincarnation of heaven.
The Pacers dug out the "cancer," and the Heat made "reinforcements!"
The next day, just before the game between the Pacers and the Grizzlies, big news broke out in a game that had just ended. Thunder "junior" Durant narrowly defeated the Mavericks in overtime and helped the team win six consecutive games.
, regained the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference, and achieved a new career high.
52 points!
Another 50-point score this season, and it is still tied for first place so far.
When Lin Shaojie faced the Kings at the end of November, he scored a career-high 52 points and a 50-point triple-double.
So when the media began to bombard Durant and brag about Durant's "bravery", the local fans and media in Indiana, as well as the reporters in China, also looked strange.
It seems...this momentum is a bit big!
Marion, a member of the Mavericks who was interviewed, looked indignant.
"Lost the game? Indeed, it is difficult for five people to defend eight people. Kevin (Durant) took 21 free throws and made all of them. It is really an amazing statistic.
Although we faced his offense, there were many actual fouls, but there were also many that were not caused by us, but the result has been determined and we cannot change it."
Most of the Mavericks players were unconvinced by the score of 116 to 114, mainly because Durant used a less than bright method to win the victory.
On the other side, Durant, the client who should have been the darling of the media, is really an honest man.
"Why do you think I deserve praise for scoring 52 points? I am very disappointed with my performance, 13 of 31. I missed too many shots and did not put enough pressure on my opponents on the defensive end."
Durant, who didn't have much joy on his face, was actually a little frustrated.
At least he is still a respectable player.
The excitement in the media was in sharp contrast to the disappointment of the person involved, but among the pictures released, only the smile on Durant's face when he hit the key shot and helped the team win.
It is difficult for you to see Durant's words in post-game interviews in mainstream media channels. Such reports make everyone mistakenly believe that Durant is very satisfied with his 52-point performance.
The Thunder, which has won six consecutive games, defeated the Spurs, who have won four consecutive games, to return to first place, while the Texas Rockets lost their sixth game in a row.
Half sea water and half fire!
At FedEx Arena, before the game was about to start, Lin Shaojie was communicating with "Black Bear" Randolph, who was having a meal together at the dinner table. Reporters not far away saw the two stars being close and friendly, seemingly very harmonious.
.
"Hey, Lao Lan, I heard that you are going to be traded to the Rockets?"
"Nonsense, who did you hear about, and who is 'Lao Lan'? Are you talking about me?"
Zach Randolph looked depressed. Anyway, the player trade deadline was coming soon, and there were a lot of rumors, so a popular guy like Lin Shaojie was unshakable.
Whether it is for the team's record or actual interests, he is an "untradeable" member of the Pacers. Even fools know that "Lynn" is a treasure boy now!
The kind where when you put a hoe down, your mouth will be full of oil, and tears will flow out of your mouth unsatisfactorily.
As for Randolph, who performed well with the Grizzlies, he can be considered a member of the rumor mill. Many people said that he was going to the Rockets to assist the bearded man.
Depend on!
I, Randolph, am so out of my element that instead of being the boss of the Grizzlies, I want to be the second in command?
Not only that, even Guy and Marc Gasol were heard to be on the trading table, and many people were interested. Sure enough...
"Since it didn't happen, Lao Lan, just pretend that I didn't say anything. But what's the problem with Guy and Gasol? If your boss is really interested, consider us. We are very sincere and only sent away a forward.
I think Gasol is also good...
You have to believe in my status in the Pacers, no matter how young I am, they will definitely listen to my opinions... Of course, I am not bragging, I am just stating a fact."
"Fuck, you are a sinister Chinese, I have never seen you like this."
Randolph had a "honest" look on his face: "I think the little giant was much better than you back then, so why did you want to take advantage of it? Where is your sympathy? Although our salary pressure is obvious to all, we have not traded anyone this season.
idea."
"Don't be pretentious!"
Lin Shaojie said in a close tone.
"Didn't you say that the salary pressure is high? We, the Pacers, are rich, very rich, and you have so many talented people inside. It's a good idea to give them to us. Whether it's Gasol or you, if he really plans to leave,
You can really consider us.
Especially you. After all, Guy is younger than you and is more suitable to be the core. You have to admit this, right! Let's form a brotherhood later and let the Heat enjoy it. What do you think?
Of course I heard that you and LeBron have a good relationship, it's okay, I don't mind, the person who gets you can't get your heart, as long as the child is mine, no, as long as you are mine, everything else doesn't matter."
"I believed you, you little brat is so bad!"
In the end, Lin Shaojie ran away amidst Randolph's laughter and curses.
After a "cordial" and friendly exchange, Lin Shaojie returned to the home team, looked at coach Frank from afar, nodded silently, then cheered up and began to prepare for the game.
Randolph looked at the retreating figure. He was really afraid that he would be tempted by what he heard. In any case, if he went to the Pacers, the Pacers' inside line would be worry-free this year. With Hibbert and him,
Anyone who dares to attack the inside line will have to be squeezed out by David West.
Randolph, who continued to warm up, became more and more frightened as he thought about it. Lin Shaojie's words were not without purpose. When it came to choosing a new core, the Grizzlies at this time were very much like the Lakers back then.
Rudy Gay's ability and potential can definitely be used as the core. After all, he averaged nearly 20 points per game in the past few years. This data is very attractive.
As for him, a player who is over 30 years old and not directly related to the Grizzlies, he might be traded away.
There is no wind without waves. When there is wind, it becomes rain!
Can this ugly player be allowed to play well at the trade deadline?
But in the blink of an eye, Randolph became a little suspicious again. Would Lin Shaojie be so kind as to remind him before the game?
Isn't it that boy who is causing trouble and disrupting the morale of the army?
Although Randolph knew that the guy had bad intentions, this question always bothered Randolph.
Half-truths and half-false words are the most elusive. Who are you torturing by saying these words?
Next time I want to talk to you before a game, I will be a dog!
Randolph thinks so!
But until the game started, his heart never calmed down. It was obvious that Lin Shaojie's words before the game disturbed him.
This also caused problems in the internal and external integration between him and Gay in this game.
The Grizzlies fielded a lineup of Rudy Gay, Zach Randolph, Mike Conley, Tony Allen, and Marc Gasol.
This lineup is not weak in the Western Conference and is an absolute killer in the Eastern Conference.
After all, the Eastern Conference lacks some outstanding inside teams!
As for the Pacers, they have the unbeatable starting five.
Both sides are players who have eaten and drank at the same table, so there really isn’t much of a stranger to each other.
But when there is no chemical reaction between a core player like Randolph and another core player Gay, the outcome of this game is already doomed in advance.
When Randolph only scored 1 assist in the whole game, just by looking at this data, you can tell how ugly the Grizzlies played in this game.
If you insist on saying that Lin Shaojie's vision is accurate, his strikes are ruthless, and he cuts off the Grizzlies' internal and external passing routes, then you can accept it. That's what the audience thinks anyway.
Gay scored a Grizzlies-high 14 points, but also had 8 rebounds, three of which were in the frontcourt;
Randolph scored 13 points and had only 7 rebounds and only 2 offensive rebounds.
After all, even Tony Allen got eight rebounds, including five offensive rebounds.
You can say that Randolph is strong in offense and weak in defense, but Lin Shaojie, as a member of the party involved, laughed and said nothing. He was sure that Randolph was obviously ineffective in his work. He seemed to be full of "power" to break away from the defense, but in fact he was loose.
It's a perfunctory thing, and you wouldn't know it unless you had faced him before.
I know how accurate my steals are. If the rhythm of both sides was not a bit slow, Lin Shaojie's steal data would not only be 9, but it would be very possible to break a double.
After all, the "black bear" was very smart and shrewd.
Therefore, it is easy to deal with such a player but you have to be careful. If you are not careful, you may be deceived by his "honest" appearance.
Lin Shaojie is sure that Gay, who worked hard, is a good kid. Although he only scored 14 points under the defense of himself and Paul George, his three offensive rebounds proved that he is a player who wants to achieve results.
, except for some "waves".
For the Pacers, Paul George, who scored 31 points in the last game, only scored 12 points in this game, and Hibbert and West only scored 10 and 13 points.
The Grizzlies' inside line has indeed caused a lot of trouble for the Pacers' inside line. Their defense is indeed in place. When players like Paul George don't have the touch on the outside, it will be very difficult for them to attack the inside line.
But no matter how good he is in the paint, you will know when a player like Tony Allen can only go inside to show off his superb defense.
Lin Shaojie has a lot of arrogance in the outside world.
The horse fleas of wind horse fleas!
This season, there has been only one core player for the Pacers from beginning to end, and that is No. 13 Lin Shaojie. This is recognized by everyone.
When such a player who is able to play both inside and outside, and understands choices, looks at the many muscles in the inside, needless to say, he must be shooting freely from the outside.
What about turning around and retreating, firing into the defender's face, or jumping in the air with an elegant backward move?
After a series of moves, the grizzly bear honestly admitted defeat.
Lin Shaojie, who played less than three quarters and seemed to have held his watch for less than thirty minutes, left the game with 46 points.
When his scoring average fell back to second place, Lin Shaojie once again proved with a 45-level score that if a team doesn't have enough "respect" for him, then he can take it and take it away.
You know, the Pacers' No. 3 pick in the first round only scored 3 points, which was considered a test of their skills. The remaining 43 points were all scored in the second half of the second quarter and the third quarter.
Until the end of the game, the Grizzlies still didn't seem to have recovered.
Although losing to the Pacers was "natural," after all, no one wants to lose. When facing the interview, Randolph behaved very honestly.
"It's my responsibility. I didn't restrain Lin En. It's my fault. You can shoot at me!"
People who don't know the truth really think that Randolph is impeccable, mainly because judging from the data and live video, Randolph's performance is impeccable.
The question is, how do you, a physical lane hero who plays in the paint, compete with a developmental lane player like Lin Shaojie? Is that your responsibility?
You Grizzlies don't send "junglers" to catch them in advance, and let Lin Shaojie, the "shooter", upgrade in advance and get the six-god equipment. Whether it's "level" or "economy," there are so many mistakes. Even if the jungler goes up in the middle, he will be defeated.
Is it good to die?
The key to the problem is that Lin Shaojie, the "shooter", is still a shooter dressed in a meat suit. He is extremely shameless!
Grizzlies no one can "cut!"
The Grizzlies lost the game calmly. On the one hand, they could not limit Lin Shaojie's scoring from the outside; on the other hand, Rudy Gay, who was regarded as the core, showed a "prodigal son" style in this game.
One of the reasons why he grabs so many offensive rebounds is that he is "wavering" enough, taking high shots in exchange for high scores. Isn't this easy!
At the end of the game, the Pacers' No. 13 made 10 of 12 three-pointers, giving people the feeling that they could score just by raising their hands.
Where's Guy?
0 for 5 three-pointers, terrible!
It seems that they scored the most 14 points, but they took 20 shots. For the Grizzlies, whose pace is already a bit slow, their scoring efficiency is really worrying!
This is equivalent to Guy as a jungler who can only farm the jungle but cannot lead the rhythm and open the dragon. What is the use of him?
The most points are obtained with the most shooting opportunities. How is this different from the Los Angeles Blacksmith?
After the game, Gasol hosted a dinner party, and of course Lin Shaojie accepted the invitation.
Although it is an away trip, the schedule of this series of games is pretty good, and the players have enough rest time.
And with the relationship between Lin Shaojie and Gasol, isn't it right to "take care" of his younger brother?
"Paul (Gasol) has recovered well recently. If the Lakers don't play in the Twin Towers, I still suggest that he comes on the bench, even if he rests for a while, so that his condition can slowly recover! Don't argue with the coach.
, it’s meaningless, the substitute is no longer a human being, don’t you think so?”
What can Marc Gasol say? He is a brother. Although the man in front of him is just a rookie, he is a rookie who can be regarded as a "grandfather".
"By the way, what are your plans next?"
Lin Shaojie suddenly asked.
"I don't have any plans. Our record is pretty good and the whole team is hoping to make a breakthrough in the playoffs this year."
Not to mention, the Grizzlies in the West and the Pacers in the East are similar in that they are both very annoying to strong teams.
But what's even worse is that the Grizzlies had a "dark eight" behavior and directly defeated the Spurs the year before last. Only then did the Mavericks soldiers realize their dreams, otherwise the outcome would not be certain.
"We all know that Rudy (Gay) is currently the core, but his time with the Grizzlies is not short. Have you achieved any outstanding honors? He personally won the Rookie of the Year. Other than that, what about
?
I believe that as long as the Grizzlies management is not stupid, they will not continue like this. You know, it was not only their good luck to get Rudy from the Rockets, but also Rudy's luck.
He doesn't have such a good opportunity to play.
And now, you can become their core member in the interior. With Zach (Randolph), your interior line is also considered a luxury lineup, so before the game I joked with Randolph, if you are willing, you can come and walk.
who.
This is both a joke and not a joke. Big men like you are a scarce member of every team, and the Pacers are also lacking..."
Gasol initially thought that Lin Shaojie was "praising" him, but after listening to it, it didn't feel that way.
According to Lin Shaojie, the Grizzlies have a very good foundation. If Lin Shaojie comes to the Grizzlies, with his strength on the outside and the strength of the Grizzlies inside, he will take off directly this year.
But as the core, Rudy Gay does not have this ability. His "long-range" ability is obviously insufficient, so even if the situation is unclear now, it is time for the Grizzlies to make a choice. After all, everyone has only one purpose, to win the championship.
.
The championship brings not only honor, but also money!
This... is just a business alliance after all!
After the meal, Gasol sent Lin Shaojie away and called his brother.
"Although I don't know what you talked about specifically, I think based on my relationship with him, he will not harm you. I also watched this game. You performed well, but Rudy (Guy) performed
Like Kobe, he can only waste shots.
You have to know what Kobe's status is in Los Angeles and what his status is in Memphis. The two are not equal.
Especially when he was on the court, he acted completely incompatible with you, as if there was an extra bump outside the Twin Towers.
Kobe does not have these problems, he is just too stubborn.
And for a player like Rudy, I don't think the management can't fail to see that you...should be ready at all times."
Paul's words reassured Marc Gasol.
Gasol knew that his brother made a small investment with Lin Shaojie and Kobe Bryant. It was not much, just a few hundred thousand dollars, but in a short period of time, the value had already increased two or three times.
income.
When they were considering whether to sell it, Lin Shaojie joked that he could recycle it at this value, which allowed Pau Gasol to continue to hold it.
This is a standard "community of interests" where people make money together. It is also a clique-like and cancerous practice in the small circles of the NBA. It is a behavior that coaches and front office staff are extremely disgusted with.
But the players like to do this in private. The main reason for failure in the past was that the players were brainless and the investment was in vain. Such small groups soon fell apart!
There are not many people who have done well. That is to say, LeBron has done a great job. Look at his small interest groups. There are too many people following him to make a living.
Now, it seems that Lin Shaojie has also formed a team in another unknown place.
I also heard that many of the Pacers' players followed Lin Shaojie and made a lot of money by accepting "small advertisements" from China. Big men have low commercial value. If they go
The walkers...
Marc Gasol himself is tempted, but everything will have to wait until the end of the season!
The Pacers captured the Grizzlies again on the road. Lin Shaojie did not pay too much attention to this game. In the next game, they will rush to Portland to face the Trail Blazers.
At the same time, Kobe, who was hit hard by his "full firepower", didn't know what he said to Nash. In short, Nash was very excited when he was interviewed by the media.
"I have never regretted joining the Lakers. Although I originally considered the Raptors, my family and championship made me choose the Lakers. From now on, I will try my best to contribute my strength. The Lakers tank is going to take off."
Compared to the complacent Nash, who was worried after returning from injury, his mental state is obviously much better.
Lin Shaojie knew that it was probably because Kobe and he had a close relationship! He just didn't know if Kobe could keep his word and he was really willing to give Nash more authority.
After all, a "complete" Lakers can still stir up trouble in the Western Conference and cause trouble for other teams.
