What the hell is Amway? Lin Shaojie has heard of it, but has never eaten it.

There are some residents in the community who always keep some so-called dietary fiber. Anyway, in Lin Shaojie's impression, the products brought under this kind of business logic are a bit unfair.

Now that he is busy preparing for the game against the Heat, how can he have time to pay attention to this classmate whom he has not seen for a long time? Not to mention him, most of the people he has no friendship with in the past, except Luo Xiaoou, are passers-by, and Lin Shaojie doesn't pay much attention to him.

A classmate who had been in school for so long and had never spoken more than ten sentences suddenly received a message from nowhere, saying something like "I'm getting married, can you come to attend?"

This kind of thing is not uncommon, Lin Shaojie pretended not to hear it. It's not that he is stingy, money is not rich, and it doesn't matter whether he is casual or not, he got married much earlier in Dongtong County.

But if you don't have friendship, how can you have the nerve to open your mouth? Apart from Luo Xiaoou, Lin Shaojie doesn't think anyone else has this qualification.

As his popularity grew, there were more and more similar private messages. Some of them might not even be classmates, but in the same grade at most. If Lin Shaojie dared to reply to a message, believe it or not, people would go to heaven.

Anyway, whether Lin Shaojie earns more or less has nothing to do with those people. At most, it is one of their talking points.

Now, the Pacers have lost a game for the first time in the playoffs. I don't know if the Heat let the news out, but the public opinion is particularly strange.

On the one hand, the Pacers no longer have David West in the paint, and Hibbert's immaturity is visible to the naked eye;

On the other hand, Lynn devotes too much energy to defense, and the overall gains outweigh the losses. He should release his offensive capabilities, otherwise relying on the Heat's Big Three, any one of them may defeat the opponent.

Of course, apart from the analysis, it's not that I'm not optimistic about the Pacers' eventual victory in the Eastern Conference Finals. The main reason is that I feel that the Pacers lack a little bit of foundation.

As one of the traditional playoff teams in the East, the Pacers have never won a championship. This is a problem.

Whether it is now or in the past, whether it is Lynn or Reggie Miller, or even in the era of O'Neal, the Pacers are always one move away from them.

Anyway, if you look at the comments in the past two days, it is very similar to the previous games where the media would make some mindless remarks. But after the Pacers won in the face, the media would shamelessly tout them, saying that they were close to the game.

There are few youth groups in recent years that are better than the Thunder Youth Army.

Especially to enhance credibility, most of the passers-by interviewed by these media were like this.

Being criticized and praised are both jobs, watching games is one's real life.

While the Pacers were recovering from training, the Spurs in the Western Conference did not give the Grizzlies a chance in the fourth game. Under the leadership of Parker, the away Spurs defeated the Grizzlies with a score of 93-86 and a 4-0 overall game.

Successfully advanced to the finals.

Gasol's performance at the beginning was considered good, but then he was attacked continuously. In the end, he scored 14 points, the second-highest score on the team.

"Big Black Bear" Randolph only scored 13 points, and his and Gasol's performances were indeed not as impressive as before.

The one who scored the most was Pondexter, who came off the bench and could be considered a swingman. He scored 22 points on his own, shooting from inside and outside. He almost led the team as a substitute to achieve his ambition of making a comeback against the wind, but it was a pity that he fell short.

Parker, as the Spurs' highest scoring player, really exploded in this game. He scored 37 points by himself, shooting 15 of 21 from the field, with a shooting percentage that was as good as cheating. It can be regarded as an example of one person leading the team to win.

Duncan "played soy sauce" for 15 minutes, but felt that he didn't contribute much.

Duncan rarely smiled during the game. He actually smiled after losing the ball in his hand. Duncan's smile was indeed rare. Fortunately, the referee did not call him a foul.

Another "bastard" Ginobili scored 6 points, 6 assists, 6 rebounds, and 6 turnovers. It can only be said that coincidences are everywhere.

After watching the game, Lin Shaojie was satisfied with his decision. Both the black and white teams scored less than 15 points. If a player like West can stably output 15 points in the playoffs, it will definitely be worth tens of millions of dollars in annual salary.

willingly.

It doesn’t matter if you are a little older, as long as it works!

Now there is no problem for the Pacers to climb over the Heat. As the Pacers' final opponent this season, Lin Shaojie even thought of Popovich's "blessing!"

The so-called "again" meeting unexpectedly came true. The Spurs had already reached the finals stage one step ahead of schedule, and the Pacers were also on the verge of success.

Lin Shaojie was deeply impressed by the Grizzlies substitute Pontside in this game. The Spurs suffered a lot from this substitute. They seemed to be afraid of this type of player.

Swingman!

Kobe was like this, and so was the Ponteside in front of him.

The great thing about the Spurs' defense is that they can limit the opponent's connection to the greatest extent and restrain the opponent's tactics. However, there are always shortcomings in their defense of stars with outstanding personal abilities. There will always be some loopholes.

The Spurs are like that. You can't even think of beating me tactically. I will strangle you as a whole. As for your personal ability, it is an unknown factor and cannot be controlled. If you really beat me, I will admit it.

All said and done, when facing a team like the Spurs, it is useless to be "reasonable" and it is not easy to control the tactics. It is the end of being "reckless" and using all kinds of inhuman bug attacks to defeat the opponent.

I will admit defeat when your ability reaches it, but in most cases, your personal ability will definitely not reach it. The previous victim was Thunder's backpack Du.

Frank, who watched the Spurs' last Western Conference Finals game, told Lin Shaojie this way: As the only player on the team who can stay outside of tactics, he has the final say on everything on the court, whether it's passing or attacking, it doesn't matter.

, Frank doesn’t force it.

Of course, the Pacers' game the next day will still be competitive.

The Heat, who had come "from afar", felt a long-lost "enthusiasm" the night before in Polis. It was not obvious in the first two games, but this time, it was quite enthusiastic.

The "hospitable" Yincheng residents stayed up all night to hold a dance party outside the hotel where Heat was staying, lighting some unknown objects from time to time, and having fun until three or four o'clock in the night.

The police came many times, and once the crowd dispersed, they then gathered again when the police left.

In the end, there was nothing to do, so the police car parked downstairs with its lights on to "protect" the entire Heat team.

The main reason is that the residents are too enthusiastic and everyone is at a loss.

Lin Shaojie, who was well rested, was training on the court early in the morning. Two hours later, he watched LeBron and the others appear with dark circles under their eyes.

"What's going on guys?"

The Heat didn't say anything and they all practiced their own way. When the Pacers were in Miami, they received similar treatment, but the impact didn't seem to be that big. Lin Shaojie himself quickly packed up and went home.

Different ways don’t work together!

Popovich, who is far away in San Antonio, rushed to the training center early in the morning. After the team's training was over, a group of people sat in the conference room to watch the game between the Pacers and the Heat.

Barkley and O'Neal are still familiar in the commentary box. Popovich and others are very familiar with these two people.

Especially the latter, the damage caused to the Spurs back then was almost irreparable. Fortunately, the Spurs finally persisted until the opponent fell apart.

The opening of Conseco Arena was huge. For the first time in so many years, the Pacers fans knew that the home team would not give the Heat any chance in this game.

Seeing David West sitting in the audience, the fans' applause also went to this hero who was "injured on the job."

Seeing this scene in front of him, Popovich felt relieved.

Judging from his information channels, West's condition is not very good. Even if his injury recovers, he will no longer have to think about playing the whole game.

This is undoubtedly good news for the Spurs.

Replacing West in the starting lineup was Hansbrough. In Popovich's eyes, this player is very motivated and has a good mentality, but technically he cannot compare with West.

After the game started, the Pacers played very steadily at home. Lin Shaojie focused more than 60% of his energy on the defensive end. His restrictions on LeBron were even more exaggerated than at the American Airlines Center.

Paul George's defense against Wade was also very good. Of the Heat's Big Three, only Bosh could find some opportunities. Although Chalmers was able to get past George Hill, facing the crowded interior, he could only play in the paint.

Look for opportunities outside the area.

Coupled with Lin Shaojie's harassment from time to time, Chalmers' shooting percentage can be imagined.

The Spurs players saw that the Pacers' strongest point of firepower was actually focusing on defense. They actually dared to treat the Heat like this, not giving the opponent a chance at all. This kind of defensive ability made people feel numb.

"If this continues, will he still have the energy to organize an attack?"

Parker asked himself this, but looking back at the offense, Lin Shaojie is just the ball carrier, a player who "take advantage of every opportunity" to take advantage of the situation. The Heat do not dare to let LeBron defend him, and Wade is still the main player.

If Wade is alone, Lin Shaojie can break through or shoot at any time. If Wade and Chalmers defend together, the basketball will go to George Hill.

Of course, George Hill's touch was not very good in this game. Lin Shaojie sent a lot of good shots in the first three minutes, but George Hill's shooting percentage was not very good.

If Hansbrough hadn't dared to play hard in the paint and grabbed two offensive rebounds, it would have been difficult for the Pacers to score higher.

But after that, Lin Shaojie made timely adjustments. When Roy Hibbert faced Bosh, he had a great advantage and got many opportunities in the paint. His 60% shooting rate was not low.

The opposite is the Heat. If the Pacers' scoring increase is a bit slow, but relatively stable, then the Heat are somewhat stretched.

Without LeBron and Wade, the Heat's scoring relies entirely on Haslem.

After the first ten minutes of the game, Haslem scored 10 points alone, while the Heat only scored 19 points. You will know how difficult it is for the Heat to score.

Look at the Pacers, with 26 points, the first quarter was not even over, and the lead expanded to 7 points.

During the rotation, Wade, LeBron and Chalmers continued to stay on the court, while Ray Allen and Anderson took turns on the court.

The extreme Heat almost completely abandoned the center. When Ray Allen came on the court, he helped the visiting team get three points with his first touch of the ball.

But Lin Shaojie immediately turned around and switched defenses with Paul George. The latter went to defend LeBron, while Lin Shaojie defended one and two, pursuing Ray Allen and Wade.

One is older, the other is injured, and his athletic ability is not enough in front of Lin Shaojie, a pervert. Lin Shaojie's fast movement and bullet speed were vividly displayed during this period.

With Ray Allen's experience and shooting efficiency, he was blocked three times by Lin Shaojie at the end of the first quarter and the first five minutes of the second quarter. Ray Allen's face turned pale instantly.

Wade originally thought he had a good chance, but it was completely impossible for him to break through violently while he was injured. The two steals given to him by Lin Shaojie exposed Wade's incomplete athletic disadvantage.

So soon, Spoelstra replaced Ray Allen and let Anderson play.

Since the three-pointer can't open up the situation, we can only try the inside line.

But the Pacers also made adjustments. Lin Shaojie took the initiative to go inside, and Lance Stephenson came on to replace George Hill to defend LeBron from the outside.

This change of formation was unexpected, and Popovich's eyes lit up when he saw it in front of the TV.

Do the Pacers lack outside firepower?

There is really no shortage. If George Hill's touch was not so cold, his mid-range firepower is not bad. Paul George is also capable of inside and outside. As the new "three-point king" of the Pacers, his long-range shooting level is

It is recognized that investment has been liberalized...

Have you heard of the legend of 51 points against the Spurs?

Shooting 13 of 14 three-pointers is really killing people.

Lin Shaojie went to the inside line. This was what Lin Shaojie asked Frank to do. There was no shortage of pacers on the outside line, but there was a shortage of people on the inside line. If that was the case, then Lin Shaojie went to the inside line.

Anderson also didn't expect that the Pacers would dare to be so "rebellious" and torment their core players.

After several head-on encounters, Anderson was surprised by Lin Shaojie's strength.

"No wonder LeBron can't handle this kid!"

When fighting for rebounds, Lin Shaojie suddenly broke in and knocked out the basketball above the heads of a group of strikers. After landing, his feet seemed to have taken root. Anderson couldn't squeeze in and couldn't grab the position.

Although he has bad teeth as he gets older, Anderson knows his weight and the tattoos all over his body are not for show.

"Get out of my way!"

"If you don't let me, squeeze through if you can!"

After going back and forth several times, Anderson wanted to cry.

Lin Shaojie played the power forward position for the first time in the playoffs, and his performance was unimaginable.

Lin Shaojie, who is "skinny" but very powerful, was born as a point guard and has played as a scorer and small forward, but this is his first time playing the power forward position.

Previously, the rebounding data was outstanding, but some people are born with a keen rebounding ability, which is also a talent, just like Rodman, everything makes sense.

But in this game, Lin Shaojie was stationed in the paint area in the second quarter, almost blocking out the sky when defending.

If you are not tall enough, you need to have wingspan to make up for it;

If you are not tall enough, you have to have a hairstyle to make up for it;

I'm not tall enough, so I have to bounce around.

Lin Shaojie relied on his "youth and strength" to bully "Birdman" Anderson, so don't take it easy.

Card space, occupy, you go......

Then Anderson lost his center of gravity and was unable to take off.

Bosh stretched his neck, and his steps were very graceful, but Lin Shaojie just stood there, as if there was a chair under his butt for him to sit on, with two solid thick legs hidden in his shorts, and his semen was protruding.

, Bosh couldn't squeeze in at all.

The horse stance is very stable. This move alone requires at least ten years of hard work. But how long has Lin Shaojie practiced it?

Strength starts from the soles of the feet. This is the level at which 200 squats can be used as one of the basic training. I don’t know if the military gods training in China have seen this scene in front of me.

"Actually, it would be good to let Lin go inside."

Brian Shaw sat in the audience and joked, while Frank smiled and shook his head.

"The gain outweighs the loss. You are asking Jordan to play center. There is no such reason."

Lin Shaojie's almost "playing" style of play surprised all the coaches who followed the game, and Popovich even felt troubled.

As one of the best tacticians in the entire league, there are many indicators for measuring players, but the most direct indicator of lethality is definitely not fundamentally different from others.

The Spurs, which have gradually grown to glory in the 1990s, have experienced an era when they would die if they could not break through.

The core players all break through with the ball and hit hard, and the inside players are all weak without any blood. Three points?

That's synonymous with being a softie, and Larry Bird's three-pointer is just an auxiliary means.

Lin Shaojie is currently guarding the inside. Not to mention Bosh and Anderson, not even LeBron or Wade dare to break through easily.

Lin Shaojie doesn't look like an inside track at all. He moves quickly, and with that bullet speed, he is completely Optimus Prime level in the second quarter.

The "toughness" he showed in the interior was a shock level, and the Heat's already fragile interior could not afford to consume it.

The 7-point difference between the two sides dropped to 4 points due to Ray Allen's 3-pointer. After the back-and-forth in the second quarter, the point difference became 15 again.

The Pacers relied on Paul George's offense, Lin Shaojie and Hibbert's rebounds in the paint, and gradually took the initiative on the court.

When they came back from the intermission, the Pacers' George Hill was still pushed off the court. Lance Stephenson was given the important task by Frank because of his excellent defense against LeBron.

George Hill had no objections to this, and Danny Granger agreed. He sat on the bench and watched. Unfortunately, Granger was unable to get a chance to play until the Heat surrendered.

The competition between the two sides is quite brutal, and there is a lot of time for physical combat. Players like Granger who are at risk of injuries should focus on maintaining their health for the time being.

In the third quarter, Jeff Pendegraf also got a brief playing time. Hansbrough rushed too hard and needed a temporary rest physically.

Frank doesn't want any more players to get injured due to fatigue.

Compared with Hansbrough, Pendegraf's playing time this season is pitiful. As a power forward, he only has half of Hansbrough's salary in the Pacers and is slightly inferior in terms of ability.

His appearance is far less eye-catching than Lin Shaojie's performance in the paint. He is quite satisfactory and looks like a template power forward.

The upper limit is not high, but the lower limit is not low either, stable!

Popovich's eyes lit up as he watched the game.

It would be damned if the Heat could win this game, but I didn't expect that the Pacers have so many good players. At the very least, there are many impactful players named Hansbrough.

The team took a fancy to it.

No one seems to care about this one in front of him, but Popovich thinks it is to his liking.

The Spurs like these players who are steady and obedient, and they are cost-effective.

Of course, the one that suits them the most is No. 13 Lynn, but this is not for sale. The Pacers only sold such a player out of their wits.

In the third quarter of the game, LeBron once again tried to attack the inside, but the reality made it difficult for LeBron to be effective.

Lin Shaojie, who shifted his main focus from defense to offense, began to use offense to drive his teammates, seemingly to complete a fatal blow, and LeBron was forced to retreat.

The Pacers play at a very fast pace. LeBron can barely keep up during the transition between offense and defense, but other "old, weak, sick and disabled players" are not so fast.

The Heat, who were originally small and fast, were actually beaten back by their opponents using their best tactics. It's sad!

Paul George and Stephenson took turns to challenge LeBron, but the little emperor's performance was inconsistent and his scoring was stumbling and unsystematic.

By the end of the third quarter, LeBron had only scored 19 points, and the point difference on the field had reached 21 points.

Haslem has the least playing time, but has the highest efficiency value. 15 points can be regarded as an account.

Among the Big Three, Bosh scored a measly 11 points, barely breaking double figures; Wade's performance was disastrous, scoring only 9 points. You can imagine how miserable the other players were.

Seeing that the score difference between the two sides widened further, the fans in the audience cheered with every offensive score of the Pacers, and LeBron's heart was heavy.

Everyone knows that after three quarters, it is completely impossible for the Pacers to lose the game.

When Shaojie Lin completed a three-pointer one step away from the three-point line after the start of the fourth quarter, at that moment, no one from the Heat came forward to defend, and everyone knew that the Heat's playoff journey was over.

Finish.

Lin Shaojie raised his hands with a smile on his face, looking very handsome.

So far in the game, I have only scored 25 points, which is not painful at all. I have scored 10 assists, but I have also scored 11 rebounds, which is extraordinary.

Coupled with the data of 6 steals and 5 blocks, Lin Shaojie once again broke the data ceiling at Conseco Arena.

25101055.

Seeing statistics like Pacers No. 13, this is in the Eastern Conference Finals. That kid is completely out of character. The score difference between the two sides is 20 points...

Looking at the demoralized Heat players on the court, Spoelstra took LeBron off the court before the game was over.

"I can still fight!"

"No, you don't want to anymore!"

Spoelstra acted willfully, and LeBron half pushed Wade off the court. After sitting for less than a minute, Wade called the doctor. His knee seemed to be swollen.

Wade's second "dismissal" on the bench made other Heat players unintentional to play. The core of the Pacers also played one more minute and then went off.

Danny Granger spent two or three minutes fighting against the Heat's substitutes during "garbage time". Looking at his opponent's "fuck" appearance, he instantly felt bored.

That's it?

When the referee blew the final whistle of the game, Conseco Arena felt like it was buzzing with gongs and drums, and all the fans were celebrating their Eastern Conference championship.

Even if they don't have the final championship in hand, they can only envy someone else who has watched others celebrate in the playoffs for the past ten years. The fans of this small ball market also ushered in a long-lost victory.

Lin Shaojie was sprayed with water by some players. The scene was too dry.

Those fans on the sidelines who paid high-priced tickets rushed up to give hugs to the Pacers' star player. There were both men and women. The scene was extremely happy.

Popovich, who turned off the TV and walked out of the room, took one last look at the screen. Lin Shaojie, who was originally wearing the No. 13 jersey, but now the jersey has gone to who knows where, and is wearing a piece of underwear.

The fate of the Pacers is very much like the jersey number Lin Shaojie carries. The last time they reached the finals for the first time was when Reggie Miller was on the team in the millennium. Unfortunately, facing the peak "ok" combination,

The Pacers lost.

Thirteen years later, the Pacers will once again embark on a trip to the Finals. Will they lose to the Western Conference powerhouse like that time?

The Spurs are gearing up because of their regular season record. Even if they enter the finals first, they still have to give the Pacers the home court advantage.

If he had known this was the case, Popovich would never have held back during the regular season.

After all, it didn’t feel worthwhile to fight to the end at that time. After a half push, the Spurs lost the game and let Lin Shaojie get 50 data. It was a shame!

Now, a hot man is here again, and the two sides are going to have a real fight, no, several fights!

"This is our opponent in the finals, a team that is both familiar and unfamiliar to you!"

Looking at the eyes of the players, Popovich was a little excited and a little worried.

"I probably know Lynn better than Frank (Vogel). This player is very capable and rational. He is our biggest opponent and the hardest opponent to break. If we beat him, we will beat the Pacers."

That's all, he is the Pacers' Kobe."

After a pause, Popovich continued.

"Many players know that I value Lynn very much, but I don't want to see you like me in the playoffs. This is our opponent and I am excited because we are facing a team that has not had a championship in ten years.

A team with finals experience, they are the most naive opponent we have faced.

But I am very worried about his performance. This is a player with a bright future and full of infinite possibilities. He is even just a little bit away from being one of our players.

Now, he has become our most difficult opponent..."

Among the players, McGrady, as the "newcomer", didn't know this. He had been traveling around China for a while and made a lot of money. The journey back to the NBA was far more difficult than imagined. It was not easy to come back.

Now that he has come to a team with a championship image, Tracy McGrady certainly wants to get his hands on the highest trophy and the most eye-catching ring.

But as he listened, he discovered that Popovich paid extraordinary attention to the Chinese.

The most potential player on the team, Kawhi Leonard, is the main defender against Lin Shaojie, and Tony Parker and other players have to provide support at all times.

Before the finals started, the Spurs had already put the "double double team" into practice.

In the next training game, McGrady was asked by Popovich to break through with all his strength and try to break through Leonard's defense. However, the old McGrady is still here. How can McGrady, who is slack in training, be Leonard's opponent?

The few outstanding performances disappeared under the relentless defense of Leonard.

After the training, McGrady asked Parker and the others in disbelief. Leonard said too few words and McGrady couldn't talk to him.

"Lynn, are you really that powerful?"

"He's not that good or not, you'll know if you compare with him."

The Spurs are studying their opponents, and the Pacers are doing the same thing during the break. They still have two days to rest and adjust.

Lin Shaojie could feel the happiness and anxiety of his teammates.

Happily, we have entered the finals, which is a great honor, but the tremendous pressure that comes with it makes the players on the training ground lose some of their shooting standards.

Facing a veteran "imperial ruler" like the Spurs, who can not be worried and uneasy!
