My basketball vision is different
Chapter 329 Goodbye, Granger
The Pacers were suppressing the Celtics on the court. Although Bradley's outstanding performance led to a 7-0 counterattack, Hibbert suddenly stood up and scored 6 points in a row to help the Pacers continue.
Get a head start.
"You know, it's this big black guy who really admires Lynn on the court."
Larry Bird said showing off.
When Paul George hit his first mid-range shot of the game, "Big Bird" was not stingy with his praise.
"This is our No. 2 player, and he almost became our key training target, but now, he can only be ranked below Lynn.
In addition to them, we also have West, George Hill, Scola, Stephenson..."
After saying that, Larry Bird squinted at Danny Ainge, and the various meanings were self-evident.
"With so many outstanding players under Lynn, what can other teams do to attract him? Do you think Lynn will leave because of the commercial value of the big ball market?
I'm not afraid to tell you that Lin En is very comfortable staying in Yincheng. I even helped him choose the house he lives in, and he still lives there now.
You say that Chinese people love their families, but Chinese people also know how to be grateful. I am sure that he will not leave the Pacers, at least when I am here, he is a player that we cannot trade."
Danny Ainge didn't know how to refute Larry Bird's words.
This fact-based statement is the hardest to refute, and Larry Bird completely has the upper hand.
The referee's whistle sounded on the court, and the two sides had entered the rotation period, and No. 13 was already ready to play with Danny Granger, replacing Paul George and Stephenson.
The Pacers sent out their nuclear weapons, but for the Celtics, what about their nuclear weapons?
Rondo, the only one who can keep up with Lin Shaojie's rhythm, is still recovering from illness.
I am afraid that this game will become increasingly difficult to win. If he had known that, Danny Ainge felt that it would be better to stay in Boston than suffer here.
As for what Larry Bird said: “Not tradeable!”
Danny Ainge just smiled and said nothing, and recognized everything else, including Lin Shaojie's status in the Pacers, his role on the court, etc.
But “not tradeable?”
It's not that Anji looks down on anyone, it's just that he has been in this league for too long and has seen too many ups and downs.
Garnett to Minnesota?
Can’t be traded!
Nash versus Phoenix?
Can’t be traded!
Anthony in Denver?
It’s also not tradable!
Not to mention the story of the love-hate relationship between Iverson and Philadelphia, isn't that all untradeable?
Who is not yet a child, no, who is not yet a treasure!
Kobe was almost sold by Los Angeles, and Duncan almost left San Antonio.
Don't tell Danny Ainge that he can't be traded. When he traded Paul Pierce, Ainge didn't even blink an eye.
If we say that the "magic fortune teller" is cold-blooded, then Anji is not bad at all. Regardless of the current quarrels of the Big Three, if one day they fall apart, Anji dares to vouch for it, and the Heat, who are entering a period of reconstruction, also dare to trade Wade.
As for what Larry Bird himself said, Angie could only believe 70% of it. Wasn't Danny Granger also on his mind at the beginning?
After an injury, it is now certain that he will be traded, not just for the salary space of three melons and two dates.
Maybe this game is the last supper of the "Son of Indiana", Angie Bill Larry Bird knows it himself.
But on the other hand, that No. 13 is a player who relies on his brain after all, and he can play floorboarding at a young age. That thing is invisible to wind and rain, but it is a weapon that can kill people without blood.
Especially in the playoffs, with his superb shooting skills and a big heart, Ainge had to doubt Larry Bird's determination. If it were Ainge who was in charge, he would keep the thirteenth player no matter what.
Number.
The Celtics have one player at a time, and they can pick whichever player they want. They only need that number 13, and then they can form a team based on that.
Larry Bird didn't know the mentality of the people around him. From the corner of his eye, he saw Danny Ainge's face looking gloomy and uncertain. At first glance, he looked like he was feeling bad.
Thinking about it, let alone more than ten years ago, the person he was twenty or thirty years ago was not a good person. If the Pacers had another massacre at home today, Larry Bird would have to personally pay for it after the game.
Invite the whole team to have a nice meal.
Not to mention anything else, it was just to give him a reputation for "pulling someone over"!
Lin Shaojie, who replaced Lin Shaojie, returned to the point guard, and George Hill, who had a heart for scoring, moved to the second position. Although Granger's injury was almost healed, after all, he had not played a formal game for a long time, Lin Shaojie still hoped that the opponent would use shooting.
Lord.
The Pacers are almost fighting the opponent with a lineup of four and a half men.
But the Celtics are not much better. After all, their strength is much worse. Except for Avery Bradley, who can be considered a bit of a threat, the other players are really vulnerable.
Lin Shaojie, who was sitting off the court before, could see clearly that the current Celtics are really stretched. Without Rondo in charge of the ball, their offensive lineup is completely arbitrary. Whether it is good or not depends on the touch.
Obviously Stevens' tactics are pretty good, but no one can implement them, so everything is just talk on paper.
There is no such thing as mutual achievement in the NBA. A qualified coach must meet the right players, otherwise it will be the result of fishing for money in the water.
And if a good player cannot meet a coach who can display his strength, it will be quite miserable.
It is normal to waste half your life and waste the best time on each other.
So now that Lin Shaojie can meet Frank, this is not an easy thing. Coupled with the overall strength of the Pacers and the relationship in the locker room, Lin Shaojie likes everything now.
As for the two old guys who are far more attractive in the audience than on the bench, Lin Shaojie knows the feeling of "feud" all too well. Isn't it the story of two people who can't deal with each other but can't stand each other and have been fighting with each other for half their lives?
People in the beautiful country like this kind of story the most, just like the Joker and Batman.
Nowadays, two old men don't fight over each other for fame and fortune. Lin Shaojie now has a firm stance, sits upright, and is never afraid of these messy things.
He would do whatever Granger couldn't handle;
He can do what Granger can't do.
It's that simple. Lin Shaojie still doesn't believe it. He can't defeat the Celtics with his own strength?
I heard this is a wealthy family, and wealth goes well with failure!
Seeing the smile on Lin Shaojie's lips, Larry Bird burst into laughter, the kind that came from the bottom of his heart.
"Big Bird" knows Lin Shaojie very well and knows that this is a player with simple and unpretentious skills who can play the kind of game that is highly anticipated by coaches. He is also the kind of player who can play both gorgeously and spectacularly on the court, making fans overjoyed.
The reporters who watched all this secretly took photos one after another.
"Larry and Angie have settled their differences and reconciled!"
Similar titles have already been planned in their minds.
But as the sound of "clang" came from the stadium, the reporters twitched the corners of their mouths. This was a bit too cruel!
Avery Bradley, the best performer of the Celtics, broke through George Hill's defense and rushed straight to the inside. He wanted to attack the basket directly, but was blocked by Lin Shaojie's slap with a nail board.
The soul cannot keep its home.
That slender body, powerful gestures, everything made Bradley like a kite with its string cut off in the air. After landing, he sat down on the ground, making a dull sound.
Lin Shaojie, who won the defensive rebound, directly threw the basketball in his hand without raising his head.
Granger's speed is not very fast, but his quick reaction between offense and defense allowed Granger to take the lead. Before the Celtic players were in position, Granger ended the game with a solid layup.
One round.
"Granger!"
"Granger!"
"Granger!"
The cheers from the fans at the scene gave Granger some comfort. Lin Shaojie, who looked like an iron tower under the basket, stood quietly, looking at everything happening in the frontcourt.
That player is obviously not the tallest on the court, and is much shorter than Hibbert, the authentic "black iron tower". But in everyone's eyes, that player is an imposing 2.8-meter player, the Optimus Prime behind everyone.
!
Even in the eyes of most fans, this new "mvp" will continue to win this honor without any surprises this season.
He could have scored the goal just now by himself, but because Granger was about to leave and everyone knew the fact, Lin Shaojie used his own actions to see off this "son of Yincheng".
Everyone can feel the emotion of parting immediately. There is no doubt about victory, but friendship is worth cherishing!
"Granger, have a good trip!"
When some fans shouted similar words, Granger, who was returning to defense, almost lost his temper.
He is still alive and well. Except for the money, his off-field life is somewhat unsatisfactory, but he really is not suffering from any terminal illness, it is just because he is about to leave the team.
No need, really no need!
After the Celtics scored a redeeming goal, the Pacers launched a fast break.
Granger took the ball with his back in the frontcourt, and Jeff Green was behind him. Granger tested it and found that the defense behind him was not weak at all. The "Son of Yincheng" turned around helplessly, because he knew that he
The back seems to be unable to open.
Fortunately, his touch was still there during this period. Although it was a long-lost official game, he made a triple threat and deceived Jeff Green's defense.
A standard shooting shot.
"Whoosh!"
"Beautiful! Granger is still the same Granger. He has solid basic skills. Even if he has not played for a long time due to injury, he is not merciless when it is time to score."
The reporter from Yangma was very excited while sitting in the audience, and said excitedly to Li Dacheng next to him.
"It's a pity. If it weren't for the injury, he should be able to stay with the Pacers."
Li Dacheng felt a little regretful. Although he knew that there was competition between Granger and Lin Shaojie for the position of leader of the locker room, Granger lost very simply. He was not a villain, which made him, an outsider, very angry.
Now that "Son of Yincheng" has reached this stage, the cruelty of the business alliance is evident.
A master of meritorious deeds like this can abandon them at will. Those players with extremely low value, no wonder they keep wandering around the league. If they persevere and find the right one, they can still have a second youth.
Those that are inappropriate will be eliminated by themselves in just two or three years.
What is important here is immediate combat ability. In addition to giving you a period of development during the rookie period, professional players in the future will use it as soon as they come up. It will work once they are used. No one will explain to you what your age and body are.
What to play if you are not in good health!
I'm afraid Granger knows this very well. As long as it doesn't cause injury, he can still do the almost pull-up jump shot in front of him with ease.
Granger caught him off guard with a very unsophisticated shot, and the audience in the whole stadium was shouting "Granger".
In such an atmosphere, Lin Shaojie certainly wants to look like an adult.
Unlike other point guards.
After Lin Shaojie completed the counterattack against Bradley in the next round, he also used his intimidation to attract two defensive players while dribbling, and finally handed the basketball to Granger.
The "Son of Yincheng" who was about to leave once again made a successful move.
"Whoosh!"
As expected, Granger, who felt hot, successfully hit the second goal!
"Does Danny Granger want to have a beginning and an end today?"
Li Dacheng said excitedly, and the reporter friends beside him started laughing.
"This shot was too simple. People were attracted by Coach Lin. Granger shot as if he were on the practice field. This style of play is a bit insulting."
"Who says it isn't?"
Li Dacheng also had to say with emotion, everyone is not blind or deaf, Lin Shaojie is just playing ball and giving Granger a parting gift.
Whether it was intentional or not, Lin Shaojie's "magnanimity" won the hearts of the players.
It's not that they don't want people to leave. In the ups and downs of the NBA, it's difficult for one person to occupy a city. Everyone knows this.
Anyone who has a teammate like this, who can make you shine on the court again before parting, will have to carry this feeling in his heart.
If you really think that the NBA doesn't care about relationships, you still have to be aware of how those players turned into coaches and the second generation players came to be.
When Bradley got the ball, he was somewhat anxious. In this game, Frank made a mistake and actually let Lin Shaojie come on as a substitute. In the minds of those players who pursue certain statistics, such a thing cannot be done no matter what.
But the Chinese guy didn't seem to care about it. It was precisely because of the Pacers' unexpected actions that the Celtics' pre-game arrangements were almost nullified.
And that guy named Stephenson, a cheap guy with an annual salary of only a few hundred thousand, actually caused such a big trouble to the Celtics on the court?
Bradley is sure that with that guy's strength, he would at least be treated like a core player with the Celtics.
Now, he is being used as a substitute by the Pacers, which is a bit luxurious when you think about it.
Now Lin Shaojie and Granger, the new and old core of the Pacers, are both on the court. This is a rare scene.
The game only lasted three minutes, but the Celtics' offense was hampered and their defense was shattered. Bradley thought of the last game between the Pacers and the Rockets.
51 points!
Such a big score difference appeared at Conseco Arena, and he didn't want the Celtics to encounter such a thing.
Thinking about Angie and Larry Bird watching the game from the sidelines, and the team general manager supervising the game on the spot, if the result is like this, Bradley can imagine how many players will be purged one by one.
"No, we must take advantage!"
Bradley almost burst out with 120% of his energy, finally stopping the Celtics' decline, and successfully hit two three-pointers from the wing to stabilize the morale of the team.
George Hill, who was guarding him, waved his hand in disapproval. After looking at the time, Bradley realized that his attack actually took 19 seconds. There were pick-and-roll cooperation from many teammates in the middle, and it was indeed a success that he was able to score in the end.
Not easy.
After the offensive and defensive transition, the Pacers broke through quickly. Lin Shaojie, who was holding the ball, didn't even make a probing move and went straight to the free throw line.
Looking at Danny Granger standing half-step inside the three-point line, Jeff Green didn't dare to lose his position.
But facing the high-speed Lin Shaojie, the Celtics really couldn't guard against him, whether it was Buss or Sullinger.
Lin Shaojie finally made a successful shot when faced with two people in the paint area, one behind the other.
"Shh!"
"Whoosh!"
As the piercing whistle sounded, the basketball successfully entered the net. Lin Shaojie actually completed a lever dodge in the air, then changed hands and sent the basketball into the basket with his left hand.
After landing, Lin Shaojie looked at Bass in front of him, rubbed his slightly red right hand, and said with a smile.
"You can be a little heavier next time, so you won't be able to disturb me."
Brandon Bass, who looked ugly, could only respond with silence.
He is older, and the players who joined the league in 2005 belong to the same class as Granger, but there is a huge difference in the rankings between the two sides.
As a player who averaged 2 points per game in his rookie season and now averages 10 points per game with the Celtics, he is an inspiration at the small forward position.
But no matter how inspiring you are, it's useless. When you meet that kind of top player, you will be beaten in terms of strength. Even if you are insulted again and again, looking at this goal is like a stranger from outside.
Bas looked at the sky speechlessly!
The audience at the scene thought that Lin Shaojie would continue to play for Granger, but they did not expect that Lin Shaojie suddenly attacked the inside, and Bass and Salinger were led one after another. Although Salinger is not a tall center, he is still a
A guy over two meters tall, plus the approximate height of Bass.
Surrounded by two giants, Lin Shaojie is really in danger.
The result was that Lin Shaojie, who took off first, relied on his speed and height to avoid Salinger's block behind him;
He also relied on "walking" in the air to avoid Bass's interception by staying in the air, which was almost a foul.
Although his right arm was hit hard, the basketball had been transferred to his left hand. It was not until Lin Shaojie was falling that he used his lateral movement to get the space to shoot successfully.
Just pick it up with your fingertips, and the basketball will fall straight into the basket like an obedient elf.
The beautiful movements on the big screen were reflected in the eyes of these 20,000 people. Larry Bird felt excited when watching it, and Danny Ainge watched "Silent Story".
This kind of talented goal, even a simple 21, can bring fans memories for many years.
Not to mention each of them watching the game live, Anji can know what it feels like.
"You will lose!"
Larry Bird didn't mind adding salt to Angie's "wound" at this time, but the latter still responded with silence.
In the face of absolute strength, words are just a rag trying to cover up shame. A bigger slap will not have any real effect. As for covering the top or bottom, of course it is to cover the face. In the final analysis, it is not as good as silence is golden.
Affordable.
At halftime, the Pacers entered the second half with a 25-point lead of 58-33.
Judging from this point difference, after the whole game, I am afraid that I can catch up with the Rockets' 51-point difference.
Mainly from the perspective of starting strength, the Celtics do not have a strong team like Howard. If they can persist until the end of the third quarter, everything will be fine.
When the game changed sides in the second half, Paul George came back on the court and scored like crazy. He made 8 of 8 shots in a single quarter and scored 18 points. The "Green Jersey" team was defeated.
Lin Shaojie scored 7 assists on Paul George alone, which was so easy.
His role is to dribble the ball to the frontcourt, whether it is one or two players. During the seemingly real and fake dribbling process, the Celtics cannot relax their defense on him.
Coupled with powerful insiders like West and Hibbert, Paul George went straight to the basket after receiving Lin Shaojie's pass without any hesitation.
With 8 shots, 100% hit rate, and 21 famous scenes, Paul George played in this quarter with a thrilling performance.
The Celtics could only once again fall into a painful struggle. Although Crawford and Green hit 3-pointers to save face, they were outscored 25-7 by their opponents in one quarter.
Celtic are destined to be defeated on the road!
In the fourth quarter, Larry Bird watched Danny Granger, who came off the bench, hit two long-range shots again, helping the team score 5-0 and seal the victory.
Celtics coach Brad Stevens was very straightforward and directly replaced all the main players.
"Aren't you a little too shameless?"
Larry Bird looked at Angie's gloomy face and said with some reluctance.
"It's okay, you can be more shameless and continue to send the main force to fight. If you still want to lose face, Stephenson can do it, I don't mind.
Anyway, I’m going for a 50-point difference, do you think I’m still proud of myself?”
Looking at that gloomy face, which looked like a storm coming, Larry Bird laughed like a pig.
All the fans at the scene felt elated.
Your Celtics are a wealthy team, right?
You Celtics are from Boston, right...
So what if you are awesome?
Your legendary star is our general manager, and now you are being rubbed under us...
The fans at the scene were unconsciously proud, and those "cornfield" old haters suddenly discovered that it was so refreshing to abuse the wealthy, just like the person next to me was the boss.
Fortunately, Frank still has principles. He also knows that the private grudges between Larry Bird and Danny Ainge are private grudges. In the final analysis, "Big Bird" is still the Celtics' passing star, and he still can't be a good person.
There is no lower limit.
In the end, after the Celtics withdrew their main force, Frank was immediately replaced as a real substitute. Stephenson did not play, nor did Scola, and even the newcomer Gobert was not substituted.
The main reason is that Frank is worried that the French tower is too upright and will really produce some outrageous statistics. In the last game against the Rockets, Gobert showed no mercy in garbage time. If it weren't for him being a rookie, Howard would still want to find someone after the game.
French theory theory.
The result is that Granger completes the game with a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals.
At the moment the final whistle sounded, the entire audience was shouting the name of "Granger", and with the neat applause, everyone knew that the "Son of Indiana" played its last home game in Conseco.
it's over.
We don’t know where Granger’s future lies. We just want to send our blessings in front of this hearty victory.
Granger wanted to cry, but held back.
