The second half of the game was as usual, as if it was a repeat of the first half.

While Lin Shaojie was sitting on the court, the Bucks were chasing after each other, hoping to narrow the gap between them.

Although the Bucks players knew that there was no possibility of a comeback, it was still feasible to try their best to make their loss not too ugly.

As the team's star player, Knight takes on almost all offensive responsibilities.

He showed all the abilities of a junior star in his offense, and neither Stephenson nor George Hill, who faced him, could stop him.

Of course, when defending, Knight's physical talent also determines that he can't guard his opponent, and the two sides will fight each other.

If this situation continues, it will be almost impossible for the Bucks to catch up while Lin Shaojie is away, but what people can't imagine is...

The Bucks' most active player in the competition stage is not from this year's Bucks rookie, Antetokounmpo. The performance of the Greek rookie was just a flash in the pan, and he was quickly suppressed. His rough skills gave him no room to survive.

The biggest reason why the Bucks have been able to chase points during this period is because of a non-draft player on the bench named Jeff Adrien.

This guy has a swingman build, but considers himself a hardworking power forward, a standard blue-collar player.

But since his debut, the Bucks' inside line has risen immediately.

But it is a pity that Larry Drew did not give him enough time. The undrafted player could only sit on the sidelines and wait for the entire first half.

In the second half, when the Bucks coach realized that it was difficult to lose decently, he simply broke the pot.

The Bucks at that time were almost a replica of "Strength can produce miracles".

Adrien came on the scene in the second half and actually suppressed West immediately.

Being younger and having a stronger body caused West a lot of harm. In just three rounds, the Pacers were denied three offensive rebounds by their opponents.

Although the Bucks only seized two opportunities, this was undoubtedly a bad sign for the Pacers who dominated the interior.

What is most unacceptable to Pacers fans is that Roy Hibbert, a man who is over seven feet tall, is actually at a disadvantage in front of this short man who is "only" six feet seven inches tall.

It's fine if Hibbert loses to Pachulia. The latter has some reputation, but what's the point of losing to an undrafted blue-collar player?

Players know how poorly players who have never been successful in the league suffer. They are players who are likely to be worse than even undrafted players.

But such a player with almost no offensive ability actually scored 4 points from the Pacers' inside head. In the fourth quarter, when Lin Shaojie came on the court, he stole 2 points again, bringing his total score to 6 points.

.

You know, this is a player who averages around 2 points per game all year round. He can score 6 points against the Pacers, who are the first in the league, and they all get it by fighting for offensive rebounds.

.

A threefold increase?

It's just about scoring. Among the 11 rebounds he grabbed, there were five rebounds.

Hibbert and West only have so much in the whole game. How come a blue-collar man can do this to such an extent? Why can't the Bucks coach be overjoyed?

….

However, the "late" appearance of Pacers No. 13 in the fourth quarter was a final blow to the Bucks, and it also made players including Knight accept reality and stop trying to fantasize.

Knight's discomfort when facing Lin Shaojie became the biggest reason for the Bucks' loss.

Without an offensive strategy, the Bucks relied entirely on the individual abilities of their stars. Without Adrien's seemingly unexpected play, the Bucks would have had almost no bright spots and they would have completely lost in the third quarter.

to the opponent.

It wasn't until the referee blew the final whistle that Brandon Knight seemed to wake up from a nightmare.

I looked up at my own data. It was pretty good. I actually got 24 points, which was a reasonable score. But when I looked at the number of mistakes, I saw 6.

Knight contributed such exaggerated statistics against Lin Shaojie, and he was devastated.

Although Lin Shaojie patted Knight's shoulder in a friendly manner after the game, it didn't seem to give him any comfort.

"Lynn is a very good player, his moves on the court are very clean, but his defense, offense, everything gave us a lot of trouble.

There is a clear strength gap between him and me, so I am completely convinced if I lose to him."

During the interview, Knight, with his hands on his hips, shook his head, trying to get rid of the bad images in his mind.

"I will do some improvement and training to target my weaknesses in future training. Even if this process is painful, I don't want us to still lose so miserably in the next round of the battle. Even if we make a little progress, it will not matter to me.

It’s something to be proud of.”

Knight showed a rare "humility." This talented high school student from Virginia won 3 MVPs, 2 championships, and state basketball player in four years, and finally entered the University of Kentucky.

He was also a popular figure in college, and since entering the league in 2011, his performance in the first two seasons has made fans have high expectations for him.

Many people even believe that he will become a superstar in the league like Irving. Although he was knocked out in the All-Star Rookie Game, his gorgeous style of play still attracted the attention of many fans.

But this game made people see that his mental attributes seemed to be somewhat poor. You know, most of the superstars in the league are paranoid, masochistic, and mentally ill.

It's just that some people are serious and some are mild.

For example, Kobe Bryant was in the late stages of paranoia and was hopeless.

So mental attributes are very important to the bonus of these stars, but what about Knight?

In his matchup with Lin Shaojie, due to his poor "performance" in the first half, he almost avoided his opponent in the second half. This kind of "weak" behavior should be ridiculed.

The most important scene in the second half is that Knight got the opportunity to attack the inside. At that time, Lin Shaojie "missed the man" to help defend Waters.

Knight clearly had a chance to make a layup, but when he saw Lin Shaojie's defense, he missed the must-goal and missed the goal.

Everyone can see that kind of huge psychological pressure, which can be described as "unworthy".

Therefore, at the post-game press conference, the reporters' evaluation of Knight was almost one-sided. He became the main culprit for the Bucks' loss, but the two players on the bench became the objects of praise.

….

One is Antetokounmpo from Greece, who has become a newborn calf; the other, Adrien, has become the blue-collar leader on the Bucks' bench.

Anyway, at the press conference, the player who clearly scored the most points in the team became the target of verbal criticism and the scene was ugly.

[To be honest, I’ve been using @ lately

Heartbeat.

As an old fox, he knows better than others that if the Rockets want to win and win the championship, there are not many teams in the West that can cause them trouble.

Although the Spurs are the mountain that weighs on all teams, the physiological situation determines that the Spurs cannot get stronger and stronger. This season can be regarded as a comeback at best. The combined GDP is more than 100 years old. Popovich is

Although Duncan has been used cautiously this season, there is nothing he can do about it, Shi Buddha is getting old too.

It seems that the responsibility for the rise of the Western Conference falls on Houston.

In this game, the Bucks lost to their opponents by a score of 89 to 110. It was very objective. The most unforgettable thing for Mo was the blue-collar player named Adrien.

He actually grabbed 11 rebounds when the Pacers were fully equipped inside, including 5 offensive rebounds, thereby grabbing 6 points.

The rebounding data is blinding. After Warcraft came to the Science and Technology City, even if it had a performance of 20, there were only a few times when it came to getting five offensive rebounds.

LeBron can get a dozen rebounds, but you ask him to get five offensive rebounds?

What made Mo Mo even more tempted was that these data came from 18 minutes. In this short period of time, Adrian, a small forward with his height, produced blue-collar power forward data, which almost made Mo Mo suffocate.

He didn't know what the other team coaches thought, but in his eyes, this was a good prospect, less than thirty years old, and he could be used.

The current Rockets are not lacking in offense. Although Big Beard performed miserably against the Pacers' No. 13, other than that, Big Beard is the number one offensive guard in the league, and his scoring ability is nothing to say.

After all the calculations, the Rockets do not lack players who compete for the ball, but they lack hard-working blue-collar workers who take the initiative to give the ball away.

….

This is also the reason why Mo is tempted.

The Rockets trader has made a decision. There are less than two months until the end of the regular season. Maybe two months later, many people will forget about this game and forget that the Bucks have such a blue-collar player.

When the Rockets can beat the Western Conference and enter the finals, players like this will be the best "gift" they can prepare for their opponents!

It is really cheap and easy to use, and Mo is very excited!

In the commentary box on the brick platform, as the whistle ended, Xie Zhenghe became a little bored.

The little giant was also in low spirits. It was really a one-sided game that the "experts" could not explain at all.

"Actually, I have always felt that with Xiaolin's talent, he is very suitable for most ball sports or track and field sports."

After the game, when Xie Zhenghe said this under Zhang Weiping's "continuous guidance", fans all thought that Lin Shaojie's mentor was bragging about his beloved disciple.

There were already lessons learned at halftime.

"Because based on my observation of him, I found that Xiaolin's judgment of the opponent's next move is very accurate.

We can carefully recall that when Xiaolin was on defense, in addition to head-on collisions, his steals and interceptions were almost always at the exact moment when his opponents exposed their weaknesses.

Whether it's the opponent's center of gravity shifting, or preparing to take off, shoot, or dunk, he can always spot it immediately."

When the fans in front of the TV heard this, they seemed to think that was really the case.

"All the mistakes Knight made in this game were due to his lack of understanding of Kobayashi, and he tried to use his personal skills to break through from the beginning.

Is that what he can do?

The talent gap is here. Really, the gap between people is quite big. Talents like ours, Xiaolin, are rare to see in a hundred years.

Knight overestimated his own strength and underestimated Xiaolin's defensive strength, which resulted in the immediate consequences."

Well, when they heard this, although the fans were happy from the bottom of their hearts, but adhering to the good tradition of "friendship first, competition second", you can't win the game and still beat your opponent to death, right?

race game

It's so miserable that it makes you look pitiful.

But on the TV screen, Xie Zhenghe, who seemed to still have some lingering taste, sat up straight and then added.

"Xiao Lin's keen observation is really a kind of talent. Many times, it cannot be achieved through training, but the moment Xiao Lin steps on the field, any coach with a little discernment can see it."

Coach Li Daohong, who was far away in the capital of Jiangnan Province, cursed secretly when he heard this, his old friend was making fun of himself!

"This keen ability to predict is not only very useful in defense, but also plays a big role in offense. Xiaolin can easily see through the loopholes in the opponent's defense.

It is precisely because of this that his movements appear concise and powerful in his offense..."

The director timely showed that in this game, Lin Shaojie easily broke through Knight's defense, and then successfully shot before Waters' defense.

"Look, just like this shot, it took less than 10 seconds from the Pacers' attack to the final shot. Let's see how much time it takes."

….

Sure enough, the exact time was then given.

7.6 seconds!

This is the total time it took for Lin Shaojie to break through with the ball alone after encountering a double-team after serving, and finally complete the shot.

It's not a fleeting one-on-five, it's actually a tactical play, but I found that it's not as good as positioning my teammates to let them fight, so I ended up attacking by myself.

Just like that, it only took less than 8 seconds.

"Judging from this shot, uninformed viewers will think that Lin Shaojie is very independent and the basketball has never left his hands. If they have such an idea, I would like to refute the views of this part of the audience."

As a non-professional commentator, and as Lin Shaojie’s mentor, Xie Zhenghe’s words couldn’t be more appropriate.

On the contrary, it is determined by Zhang Weiping's "professional" nature. He should try his best to explain and analyze the game in a neutral tone.

"Compared with players like Kobe and even LeBron who both occupy the ball and take the shot, Kobayashi only takes the shot and can hand it over at any time.

In fact, Kobayashi is most efficient without the ball. His technical and physical advantages determine that even in singles with the ball, he does not need support and cover. His overall role in driving the team is obvious, and his leadership ability is extraordinary.

What I'm most worried about right now is his health. As long as there are no problems with his body and he can keep it up, with Kobayashi's style of play, he will have a career of at least more than ten years. Even if he gets older, he can completely change his game.

With his football intelligence, he can pose a threat to his opponents just by standing on the court.

I think this is why so many coaches like him.

After all, one can imagine how much advantage a core player who does not occupy the ball will create for other teammates.

Currently, Paul George takes the most shots for the Pacers, but if you look at the scoring data between him and Kobayashi, you will know that the two are far apart."

Paul George, who scored 32 points, was the player with the most points in the game, but Lin Shaojie’s 26 points were not much at all. The most important thing is that Lin Shaojie also had 15 assists and 7 steals...

Maybe Lin Shaojie has not achieved the achievement of "evenly distributed data" in every game, nor has he achieved "the thieves are not missing," but the advantage he has shown in the steals list is far greater than his advantage in the assists list and the scoring list.

Bigger.

The feeling of despair that the second place player couldn't even see the rear of the car deeply stimulated every defender.

This is also the "sensitivity" in Xie Zhenghe's words.

After completing the commentary task, Xie Zhenghe and the Little Giant left the brick platform and went to the Basketball Association together. The two came together and left together.

What the fans in the commentary box of this game left with was the first impression that Xie Zhenghe was very capable of pretending.

"It's amazing to have a disciple like Lin Shaojie. Thank you for your guidance. Can anyone be called 'guidance'?"

Some netizens responded to such remarks.

"I see that you only watch the game in the second half. I hope you can go back and review your lessons.

Not to mention, with Xie Zhenghe’s resume,

It’s right to thank you for your guidance. I won’t talk about those rumors. Guangdong Province in China accounts for half of the basketball world and no one objects to it, right?”

"I'm not convinced!"

"GUN! Anyway, if you don't believe it, ask the players in Guangdong Province, the wave before and after the consecutive championships. See if those players dared to stab in front of Director Xie, and the group in the Imperial Capital.

Do you really think that anyone can send players to a national brand? You are so shameless! Xie Zhenghe really has this ability. If you ask me, half of the credit for Director Lin being able to enter the national team back then should go to Director Xie.”

Li Daohong did not see such a comment, but his daughter later relayed it to him. Anyway, when he saw this news, Li Daohong subconsciously wanted to like it.

No matter how "rebellious" Xie Zhenghe is, he is still a child of the old Xie family, and he is very capable!

It's a pity...

Li Daohong's ears are filled with voices about "Lin Shaojie" every day. He is a basketball practitioner. Players who graduated from provincial universities sometimes come back to visit him, the old coach, and they all subconsciously ask why Lin Shaojie was not recruited in the first place.

Team!

What do you want Li Daohong to think?

After the gifts are received, the players go out and pick up whichever pot is left untouched.

My vision is different.
