Chapter 0122: Barkley and Smith's Bet!
After the Knicks' big win over the Warriors, the American media generally believed that Lin Yi had one less competitor for the best rookie.
Timberwolves rookie Tyrek Evans played well, but his stats were slightly worse than Lin Yi, and the Huskies' record was a terrible mess, and they couldn't compare with the Knicks.
After the big win over the Warriors, the Knicks will have a four-day rest in the future, and Lin Yi is not idle, practicing shooting hard in the Knicks' training gym to maintain his hand.
Lin Yi knew that Brandon Jennings' rookie season was almost 55 points per game, and Lin Yi's own "brush day" was also in sight.
……
On November 16, just when people were worried about the competition for the best rookie Lin Yi had no opponent, the Milwaukee Bucks Bucks played at home against the Golden State Warriors, and the No. 10 pick of the '09 class, Brandon Jennings, who was shouting to make the team that missed him regret it, contributed a magical game!
He made 34 shots in the whole game, 21 hits, including 7 of 8 three-pointers, and in the third quarter he scored 29 points, and the crazy data of 55 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists in the whole game shocked the whole league!
It is worth mentioning that in this game with the Warriors, Brandon Jennings shook down Stephen Curry and Monta Ellis successively, and the Warriors backcourt combined for a total of 39 points, which was completely blown up by Brandon Jennings.
All of a sudden, whether it was the media or the fans, everyone thought that the best rookie competitor of "Lin Crazy" was here!
And the unlucky Stephen Curry was once again questioned by people, and the list was actually blown up by the No. 10 show!
Although it is not new for a high-pick rookie to be beaten by a low-pick rookie, Stephen Curry has been abused too badly this time.
The poor schoolboy was taught to be a man by the Knicks in the last game, and this time he was beaten by the brave Brandon Jennings.
Jennings said after the game that he was the best in the class of '09!
Well, not only the American media is looking down on Curry, but even Warriors fans think that choosing Curry in the summer is really too much of a failure......
It's a pity that Lin Yi asked the Knicks uniform team to ask the Warriors for the first time, and the reply was still that the Warriors refused to trade Curry.
Damn old Nelson!
……
In fact, Lin Yi was not surprised that Jennings could have such a performance, Jennings is a typical debut that is the peak player, and throughout his career, he has only eaten such a crab once.
It can only be said that the defense of Stephen Curry and Montaelis is really ......
It's rotten!
Jennings didn't even shoot 40% from the field in his career, and he felt good in this game, and the Warriors' defense couldn't put pressure on him, so the result can be imagined.
Sad elementary school students.
Even James Harden, who is not good at comforting people, began to comfort Curry in the group.
In other words, although Harden has limited playing time this season, Harden, who played with the bench, has unlimited firing rights in the second lineup, and the Thunder's way of dealing with the three musketeers is very clever, they know that it is definitely impossible to let Harden start, rather than watching Harden be prevented by Westbrook, it is better to let Harden take the bench to play freely.
……
Many trouble-making media have hoped to interview Lin Yi on Jennings's "I am the best rookie in the 09th class" speech, in the eyes of the media, Jennings is a war letter to Lin Yi!
You must know that Jennings' performance of 55 points in a single game made him surpass LeBron James at the age of 20 years and 54 days to become the youngest player in NBA history to score 50 points in a single game.
Many NBA stars have sent blessings and encouragement to Jennings, and former record holder James generously said that records are used to be broken, congratulations to Jennings.
Of course, it is unknown whether James is scolding MMP in his heart.
Blanton Jennings stole the show for a while, and he confidently said that he was no worse than anyone in the '09 class of rookies, and that he was the best.
Bucks management felt like they had picked up a treasure and were ready to shift the focus of their development and promise Jennings unlimited power.
Lin Yi didn't say anything through the media, he knew that the best way to fight back with action was to fight back.
However, Jennings was indeed too arrogant, and the kid told the media through his agent that the Warriors had invited him to a tryout in the summer, but they chose to refuse Stephen Curry, who went to the Warriors for a tryout, which made Jennings very unhappy, and he had long held his breath to take revenge on the Warriors.
"Stephen Curry? Is he also worthy of me and Bi? Brandon Jennings said arrogantly.
……
"I don't think it's easy to draw conclusions about the best rookie in November in the East." In a TNT TV program, Kenny Smith believes that the Bucks' current record is also good, Jennings' 55-point performance in a single game is phenomenal, he has the potential to become an All-Star point guard, and he has a chance to beat Lin Yi in the Eastern Conference rookie of the month in November.
"I don't think so, Lin's play is more consistent, we can't judge and jump to conclusions because of a certain game, it's unprofessional." As the No. 2 Lin Mi in the United States, Barkley continued his poisonous milk against Lin Yi.
"Hey, Charles, even a lot of superstars haven't scored as much as 55 points in the regular season." Kenny Smith didn't forget to take the opportunity to attack Barkley.
Barkley looked aggrieved because he was the superstar who didn't score 50 points in the regular season!
Buckley: ┻━┻(╰(‵□′)╯(┻━┻
But in fact, Kenny Smith's statement is not very fair, although Barkley did not score 50 in the regular season, but he had a single game of 56 points in the playoffs!
It's much harder to score points in the playoffs than it is in the regular season.
Barkley was told that he had a sore spot, and he couldn't refute it for a while, and the angry Barkley said: "What if Lin also gets 50 points? ”
Kenny Smith smiled and said, "Hey, I said Charles, don't lie to yourself, don't forget that Lin's opponent is the fourth quarter!" ”
Barkley obviously doesn't like Jennings, and he thinks Jennings doesn't have much future, but Kenny Smith is right, if New York plays well, Lin Yi will be difficult to play in the fourth quarter.
The difficulty of adding 50 points is that if you play too smoothly, the opponent may collapse directly, and many star players have missed a lot of high scores in their careers, after all, it is a very unkind thing to play in garbage time to score points.
Bryant's 62-point game in the third quarter is a case in point, and Bryant refused to play in the fourth quarter to score points, otherwise no one would doubt that he could break his own record of 81 points.
But Barkley was obviously unwilling, especially what Kenny Smith said, as if he Barkley was not as good as Jennings.
"Lin's biggest advantage is that he's two months younger than Jennings, and I think he still has a chance to break Jennings' record." Barkley said unconvinced.
"Oh? Charles, how about we make a bet? Kenny Smith said with a wicked grin.
"What's the gambling method?" Once Barkley's unconvinced momentum came up, no one could pull it back.
"If Lin can't break Jennings' record for the youngest 50 plus points, how about you kiss the donkey's ass again?" Kenny Smith said.
Barkley hesitated, but anyway, it was all about improving the ratings of the show, and Barkley also let go, "Okay, no problem, if Lin succeeds, then this time I will change your donkey butt!" ”
“OK!” The bet between Smith and Barkley quickly spread across the United States, and even Chinese fans were interested in it.
Chinese fans don't like Jennings either, because this product is too rushed, look at our Lin Yi, how low-key and modest it is!
In fact, low-key and humility are useless in the NBA, but this time Jennings is really too high-profile.
To be arrogant is to be conceited.
Chinese fans can't help but recall Da Yao's rookie season, Barkley once kissed the donkey's butt because of his disrespectful remarks to Da Yao, but this time, Barkley is on Lin Yi's side, with a different position, and the impression of Chinese fans on Barkley has also changed a lot.
After Barkley's bet with Kenny Smith came into effect, he went to watch the schedule, and he didn't know if he didn't see it, there were really not many opportunities left for him and Lin Yi......
Wipe!
Buckley felt himself pill this time.
Because the Knicks' next opponents are not lacking in favorites such as the Lakers and Celtics......
After Lin Yi learned that Barkley had poisoned himself again, he really wanted to beat up this fat man.
Oh my boy, can't you hack me once and give me some mysterious power?
But having said that, Lin Yi himself is full of confidence in breaking Jennings' record.
