Chapter 518: 1-1 (4000 words)
Yi Jianlian dunked on the court, which shocked the Bulls fans and made Yi Jianlian's teammates on the entire Knicks team show incredible expressions.
After Yi Jianlian came to New York, he hadn't fought like this, and they really didn't know that Yi Jianlian's physical fitness could be like this.
You know, this isn't the NBA's regular season! It's the NBA playoffs! And it's also the NBA's Eastern Conference Finals, the only stage for the entire Eastern Conference to be the only two teams still alive this season.
Needless to say, this intensity is definitely the most valuable duel venue, Yi Jianlian has been on the court for a whole quarter, it is said that there should have been some problems with physical strength, not to mention anything else, just look at the sweaty expressions of Hamilton and Ruer Deng who are defending him on the Bulls bench now, they have consumed a lot of physical strength in the process of following Yi Jianlian's defense.
But they all stopped cooking, but Yi Jianlian was still dunking on the court!
What kind of monster is this?
Not only the Bulls audience, but even the Knicks players asked in their hearts.
Yi Jianlian is really not very tired, over the years he has strictly implemented the physical exercise according to the training plan, and the results are shown today, the first quarter of running tired Hamilton and Ruhr Deng, but it did not affect his own physical fitness at all, his breathing is still steady, and his whole state is still at the most energetic.
“!”
Yi Jianlian once again forced the inside line in the surprise of everyone, and completed the one-arm violent dunk, and the audience of the Bulls was suddenly silent, just now they were so surprised that they whispered, but at this moment they were so surprised that they were completely speechless!
Yi Jianlian dominated the start of the second quarter, and the Bulls' narrow lead in the first quarter was equalized by him.
As soon as Thibodeau saw this, he immediately brought Derrick Rose on the field.
Thibodeau is a very demanding head coach, and he's as obsessed with defense as the older generation of managers like Larry Brown.
In addition, there is also a place that is very similar to the older generation of NBA head coaches in that Thibodeau is not ambiguous in the use of the main force, as long as the main force is not dead or injured, he dares to put the main force on the court for 48 minutes.
Of course, there is one thing to say, Derrick Rose's injury really can't be blamed entirely on Thibodeau, his original style of play has already doomed him to such an ending, and it is too easy to wear out the body without slowing down at all in the high-speed movement.
Derrick Rose immediately made a difference for the Bulls when he came on the court, and the goals he didn't score in the first two times rolled into the basket as soon as he came on the court.
That's what Derrick Rose has transformed this team, and he's really good right now.
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
“mvp!”
The audience at the scene also resounded with cheers at this time, and Derrick Rose defended in these cheers, which looked like the No. 23 of the Bulls that year!
It's just that Derrick Rose didn't let the Bulls directly crush the Knicks, and Yi Jianlian continued to fire and helped the Knicks score one goal after another.
"Soaring, the two most favorable contenders for MVP in the regular season this season, Yi Jianlian and Derrick Rose officially opened the mutual soaring mode in this game!"
The exchange of the two of them made the commentators who were commentators of the game on the spot excited.
In playoff-level games, only superstars can play as well as in the regular season, and will not be affected by defensive improvements and series, so superstars have always been the focus of the playoffs.
In the 80s, the league's "black and white" was a contest between Larry Bird of the Celtics and Johnson the "Magic" of the Lakers.
That was a real momentary brightness, far from the "23vs24" that the NBA forcibly hyped two years ago can be compared!
Yi Jianlian and Derrick Rose did not end easily on Biao, the two of them did not return to normal mode until their respective starters returned one after another, or against Biao, as long as the other party scored a goal, the other guy would never give the shot to his teammates in the next round.
During this time, Yi Jianlian scored 13 points, and Derrick Rose scored 11 points, not because he scored fewer goals than Yi Jianlian, but because his three-point ability is indeed not as good as Yi Jianlian, which is also the only shortcoming of Peak Rose.
In the end, at the end of the second quarter, Yi Jianlian played the whole court again.
Yi Jianlian, who did not rest in two consecutive quarters of the game, scored 30 points in the first half!
He scored a total of 19 points in the entire second quarter!
With his excellent play, the Knicks entered the second half with a three-point lead of 58-55 at the end of the first half.
"This kid is really crazy!"
At halftime, ESPN's commentator Bill Wharton said to himself, "He actually played the first two quarters of the whole game, a full 24 minutes, and he was able to score 19 points in the second quarter so efficiently, I really have never seen such a terrible player, and I didn't even think there would be such a monster in this league before Yi appeared!" ”
But now, he had to believe that there would really be all kinds of monsters in this alliance!
***
The second half of the game continued, and Yi Jianlian, who had played the first two quarters of the game, continued to play in the third quarter, and when he was seen, the entire Bulls audience and the commentators in the ESPN commentary booth were crazy......
Isn't this guy going to play the third quarter of the game?
They wanted to shake their heads and say that it was impossible, but given Yi Jianlian's terrible physical fitness in the first half, they were really not sure if Yi Jianlian would play the whole quarter in the third quarter.
He is the one who has that ability.
Everyone believed he could do such a thing!
It's just a matter of whether he wants to or not, whether he will ......
Yi Jianlian continued to play in the third quarter, his whole mind was still on the game, but his offense was obviously a lot more restrained, which made Derrick Rose breathe a sigh of relief, he also scored 21 points in the first half, although not as much as Yi Jianlian, but on the stage of the playoffs, he scored 21 points in the half, Derrick Rose is worthy of the name of a superstar, but if he is still as strong as the second quarter in the third quarter, he is really worried that his physical fitness will not last until the end of the fourth quarter, and he has to admit it, If it's just a comparison of Biao's ability, he can't compare to Yi Jianlian! Of course, it's not because his scoring ability is not as strong as him, but his physical fitness is indeed not as perverted as Yi Jianlian!
Yi Jianlian's performance on the offensive end infected the Knicks players.
It is impossible for them not to be touched at all, after all, they can still lead the score now, and the biggest hero must be Yi Jianlian, if he hadn't been desperately holding on in the first half, with just a few of them, I'm afraid this game would have been reduced to garbage time!
But the honor of the Knicks team should not be guarded by Yi Jianlian alone, the glory of this city belongs to each and every one of them!
"Come on!"
After Yi Jianlian's cheering again, the eyes of the entire Knicks team became different, all the players finally let go of the pressure and baggage in their hearts, and the whole performance finally returned to normal.
Dragic and Felton stepped up at this time, using their own good ways to connect and score, helping the Knicks continue to lead the scoring.
They can score, and Yi Jianlian can finally take advantage of this time to take a good breath!
77 to 73.
At the end of the third quarter, the Knicks still had a four-point lead.
In the quarter, Dragic scored five points, Filton scored four and Smalls scored six.
Their performance allowed Yi Jianlian to take an early break 2 minutes before the end of the third quarter, which was also the first time that Yi Jianlian was rested during the game today.
His fate made Bill Wharton subconsciously exhale: "Replace Yi, this guy finally went down, scared me to death, I really thought that the first player in the history of the NBA would play the first three quarters of the game!" ”
"This record doesn't matter at all, Bill, if you don't replace Yi now, will it be difficult to wait until the critical moment in the fourth quarter to replace Yi? This is to be expected! Drexler answered, "It's just that what I didn't expect was that the Knicks could end the third quarter with a lead at this time, and the Bulls were a little difficult to do!" ”
The Knicks players have obviously regained their previous motivation under the leadership of Yi Jianlian, and now they are leading in the third quarter, and they are becoming more and more eager to win, and it is conceivable that the Knicks will definitely play further suppressive in the fourth quarter, even if the Bulls have home-court advantage, I am afraid they will not be able to stop this group of tigers and wolves who want to win no matter what.
Although the Bulls have home-court advantage and fans cheering for them at critical moments, the problem is that all members of the Knicks are now focused on the game, and no matter how big the external factors are, they can't affect their attention at all.
And they also have Yi Jianlian!
New York's New Hope Yi Jianlian didn't rest in the fourth quarter, he stayed on the court until the end, and in the final 1:30, with his ultra-long three-pointer, the Knicks extended their lead to 8 points, which helped the Knicks seal the win.
In the end, 110-101, the Knicks, under the leadership of Yi Jianlian, escaped from the Bulls' home court and won the second game of the series, and also stole the Bulls' home-court advantage into their hands.
Yi Jianlian was a well-deserved contributor to the victory in this game, he only rested for more than 2 minutes and got an epic triple-double of 56 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists.
56 points is his playoff high.
"God is playing tonight in the Knicks' No. 9 jersey!"
After the game, ESPN's headline quoted Larry Bird's classic quote from Michael Jordan as the headline to describe Yi Jianlian tonight.
The only difference is that Michael Jordan also lost that game as God, while Yi Jianlian led the Knicks to win the game.
The rest of the Knicks had a decent night's performance as well: Smalls had a double-double of 19 points and 10 rebounds, Dragic had 11 points, and Felton had 15 points, and the three of them gave Yi a huge boost this evening. Otherwise, with only 50 plus triple-doubles of Yi Jianlian, this game may not be able to be won either.
"So, like I said before the game, I have a bunch of very good teammates, I believe in them, and I believe that we will make it to the finals, we have that quality!"
After the game, Yi Jianlian, who stepped on the ice bucket, sat in the locker room with a grin, and repeated the pre-game remarks with a smile to the crowd around him.
His teammates are the best teammates.
Finally, he added: "Then we will go back to our home stadium and now that things are starting to turn in our favour, that's the best news! ”
……
"It's not over yet, and the Knicks still have a lot of hope of reaching the Finals!"
"56 plus 14 plus 10, Yi Jianlian staged the legend of one person and one city!"
"We have easy, and some will be very easy!"
This victory naturally made the whole of New York rejoice, and a large number of Knicks fans gave Yi Jianlian their biggest shout:
"He's been incredible tonight, I never thought I'd see a solo show like this!"
"Seriously, I almost cried when I saw him play the whole first half, the way he worked hard!"
"Yi is really amazing, if he wins the championship in New York this year, he will undoubtedly be the best player in the history of the Knicks, I don't care if he will be refuted, I just want to say fuck, Yi is the best Knicks player in my eyes!"
The entire New York City fans are crazy because of Yi Jianlian's performance tonight!
***
The Eastern Conference Finals were a 1-1 draw, but the Western Conference Finals were very easy, and the Mavericks adjusted the Thunder for two games in a row, rewriting the big score to 2-0, and then went to Ohlahomma.
Judging from the momentum of the Mavericks in the first two quarters, whether it is the home court of the Thunder or not, it doesn't actually affect anything, this team is too stable this year!
The old and demonic Jason Kidd, and the Jason Terry who returned to the top at the age of independence, the knife-like breakthrough Barria, and the "hacker" Marion who can impact the interior with defense, and Tyson Chandler, who should have been the best defensive player award this season, this lineup is terrible enough!
The Mavericks still have a big player in their lineup!
That's Dirk Nowitzki!
How to describe the state of Dirk Nowitzki's two games, well, the big man who knows how to shoot is here! That's right, it only takes such a simple sentence to summarize the state of the Nuo Heavenly King!
Nowitzki's projection ability has reached the best of his career in this year's playoffs, and with the help of "Golden Rooster Independence", his shooting has almost reached the point where he can shoot in, and the more critical the moment, the more accurate!
