Lin Yi played only 6 minutes in the first quarter before being replaced by D'Antoni.

In the first quarter, he contributed 2 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists, and it is difficult for the data to fully reflect Lin Yi's improvement of the entire New York Knicks team.

But you must know that in order to limit Lin Yi when the Heat team plays behind, they can only use Haslem to defend him.

Haslem moves faster than O'Neal Jr., and in the face of his defense, the quick-witted Lin Yi will not attack.

Although Lin Yi has a height advantage, the first quarter is not Lin Yi's power point, if you want to be efficient, saving physical energy with a substitute lineup is the king.

After all, it's Lin - how efficient how to come - easy.

Spoelstra, the coach of the Heat team on the sidelines, also breathed a sigh of relief for O'Neal Jr. after seeing Lin Yi go down, and it is not a good thing to let the center run back and forth with the other party like this.

Riley is dismissive of Lin Yi's current style of play, in his opinion, Lin Yi will be more dominant if he learns to play low back, and a 221 cm big man can't even be eaten by a short big forward like Haslem, which is a failure in his eyes.

On the court, New York was replaced by the "my life is up to me" Nate Robinson.

Nate Robinson, who is 175 cm tall, has amazing jumping power, won the NBA's dunk king, and risked Yao Ming, who is 226 cm tall.

The future Thomas Jr. is already known as the Big Mouth, and he doesn't know how much money he has taken less with one mouth, but compared to Thomas Jr., Nate Robinson is really arrogant.

D'Antoni was brought on by Nate because the team recently wanted to trade him out.

But as soon as Nate came on the field, he immediately turned into an undercover agent.

Nate Robinson didn't care about 3721 to get the ball, the second battalion commander on the outside, Gallinari, waited hard for the ball but never passed it to his hand, there was no Italian cannon but could not fire, Gallinari was very tired, he wanted to go down to rest, and then go up with Lin Yi for a while.

The New York Knicks, who were originally leading, were successfully overtaken by the Heat because of an undercover agent.

At the end of the first quarter, the Heat led 33-26.

"D'Antoni replaced Lin Yi so early, he should have wanted him to bring a substitute like in the preseason." Zhang said reasonably.

"It seems that this is the case, Lin Yi played better with the substitute lineup." Yu Jia added.

Sure enough, Lin Yi came on the court at the beginning of the second quarter, and Nate Robinson, who felt that he was playing well on 2-of-7 shooting, was thrown back to the bench by D'Antoni.

Lin Yi remembers that Nate Robinson was traded to the Celtics by the Knicks not long after he played in his previous life, and even D'Antoni, a master of training point guards, couldn't train Nate Robinson, so you can imagine how low Nate Robinson's ball quotient is......

In fact, if Nate Robinson is willing to pass the ball more, he will definitely get a bigger contract than he is now, he has amazing physical fitness, good strength, and fast speed.

You must know that the NBA in this period will not be as brainless as it will be in the future, and Nate Robinson's living environment is much better than Thomas Jr., but it's a pity that this brain's brain is ......

"Second Battalion Commander" Gallinari had an average performance in the first quarter and was replaced four minutes early.

At the beginning of the second quarter, he played with Lin Yi, and D'Antoni liked Gallinari very much, not only because they were all Italians, but because Gallinari was indeed a very good pitcher.

He is physically perfect for Novak, Capono and the like, and his athleticism is definitely superior among white people, and Gallinari can also hold the ball and cheat fouls, Lin Yi remembers that the handsome Italian guy averaged 8.2 free throws per game in the NBA in the 15/16 season.

D'Antoni is ready to arrange a small lineup to play with the Heat, with center Lin Yi, power forward Gallinari, small forward Wilson Chandler, scoring guard Larry Hughes, and point guard Tony Douglas.

Spoelstra, the head coach of the Heat, was dumbfounded, it was indeed a small lineup, but the special Gallinari had 208 centimeters, and Wilson Chandler also had 203 centimeters, what kind of small lineup was this?

In comparison, the Heat's second-team backup center Joel Anthony is only 206 centimeters, and we are the small lineup, right?

Call the police! Call the police! 911? Someone on the other side pretended to be 13!

……

The Miami Heat quickly felt the impact of the New York Knicks' bench.

Riley, who thought that Lin Yi would not have any low-post skills, was dumbfounded, because at the beginning of the second quarter, Lin Yi began to keep asking for the ball in the low post.

Joel Anthony is not slow, it is not cost-effective to hit him with a breakthrough, it consumes too much physical energy, and it is better for Lin Yi to directly ask for the ball in the low position to save trouble.

Lin Yi is not heavy, but Joel Anthony is lighter than him, and the most important thing is that this cargo is short.

I saw Lin Yi turning over and jumping on the court, all kinds of steps, and left and right hooks, and the Heat team had no choice but to pinch Lin Yi, and now the second battalion commander finally pulled out the Italian cannon.

With Lin Yi's assist, Gallinari scored three three-pointers in a row, and suddenly the Knicks opened up the difference.

"Sure enough, I still have a hamburger to eat with Lin, and it's a beef burger!" Gallinari thought to himself.

In desperation, the Heat asked for a timeout to switch back to the starting lineup, and the Knicks also made adjustments to change back to the starter, and it turned out that as long as the game didn't burn to the point that D'Antoni had a headache, he would still use the bench.

Spoelstra felt that Lin Yi's low opening had something to do with Joel Anthony's defense of him, so he decided to freeze Lin Yi with Haslem.

Lin Yi was not ambiguous, handed over the ball, and directly began to cut in the air, Chris Duhong incarnated as Liu Wei, and threw it into the sky.

Bang dang! Bang dang!

Is the city lord of the empty city in vain?

This can't be done, the Heat's defense can't keep up, and Wade alone can't withstand the Knicks' firepower, but who will help Wade?

Mike Beasley? Looking at his sluggish performance, Spoelstra wondered if he had smoked marijuana.

In fact, I really don't blame Beasley, New York used Chandler and Harrington to defend Mike Beasley in the second quarter, Beasley was not fast, and when he met these two people who were similar in height and strength than him, he could only rely on dry pulls to attack, the NBA is not the NCAA, and Beasley can't play misalignment, so there is no advantage at all.

At this time, his three-point shot was sparse, and he couldn't even do the most basic to open up space.

At the end of the first half, the New York Knicks led 65-51.

The Heat's vaunted defense was shot through by the Knicks in the first half.

Today's Knicks' outside shooters are accurate, this is the advantage of the shooting team, if the hand is smooth, no matter how good your defense is, you can't prevent it, on the contrary, even if you don't defend them, they can't get in.

The Knicks weren't possessed by the 27-game Rockets, and Gallinari wasn't iron.

Gallinari, who was asked to shoot eight three-pointers per game and would be penalized for running laps if he couldn't shoot them, made seven three-point shots in the first half, hit four of them, and had 14 points and three rebounds.

Al Harrington also shot three of his six three-pointers to finish with 11 points and four rebounds.

Chris Dujon made 2 three-pointers, hitting 1, with 5 points and 2 assists.

Wilson Chandler threw four three-pointers, hit two, and two fast-break counters to finish with 10 points, three rebounds and one assist.

Tony Douglas made 2-of-3 three-pointers to finish with six points.

The Knicks' most iron-clad player in the first half was Nate Robinson, who made 0 of 4 three-pointers, which was an undercover agent who didn't explain.

Lin Yi didn't shoot three-pointers in the first half, and got 12 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 2 blocks.

In particular, his various low-post singles in the first half seemed to be slapping Riley in the face.

Riley: It's not right for you to fight like that, I'll tell you......

Lin Yi: Wake up! I'm the center!

Riley:......

"Lin Yi is more like Yao Ming today." Zhang said reasonably.

"It turns out that Lin Yi has the potential to be a super center, and he has the skills to do so, but he gives us the impression that he prefers to break through the dribble." Yu Jia added.

"That's what a good player should have, he knows how to use his strengths to lead the team, play more reasonably, and the Knicks players have a new look today, except for Nate Robinson, who is playing better than last season." Zhang said reasonably.

"Gallinari averaged only six points per game last season, and if he can play like that, he might be an All-Star." Yu Jia said.

Knicks fans saw it, and they felt that this Knicks team had really become stronger.

Not only is the style of play good-looking, but also dares to shoot.

Lin Yi is not the kind of cancer that only attacks one-man and destroys teammates, he is the core of this Knicks team.
