Lin Fei, who walked off the court, greeted the cheers in the sky and waved to the Knicks fans in the audience.

Marbury, Eddie Curry and others surrounded Lin Fei, and they all applauded excitedly.

There is no doubt that Lin Fei's strength in tonight's opening match is far stronger than they imagined.

Looking at the fans in the audience who scolded in previous games, tonight was rarely all cheers and applause.

Jamal Crawford, Jalen Rose and others on the team's bench also had to be conquered by Lin Fei's supernatural performance tonight.

In the face of the 28-year-old Kobe Bryant's 60+ in a single game, even Michael Jordan in his peak may not be able to do it.

Xiao Mildew and Qin Dongmei, who were sitting in the front row, were naturally also excited about Lin Fei's wonderful performance of 61 points tonight.

After all, in the entire history of the NBA, there are only 10 players who can score 61 points in a single game.

In the luxurious box on the top of the museum, James Dolan had happily drunk five glasses of 52-degree Royal Salute whiskey in a row, and he couldn't help jumping and jumping at this time.

In the past, watching the Knicks games caused me to be furious, but tonight was ecstatic.

"Lin is really too much for the Knicks and me, the boss, Made, after paying the luxury tax for so many years, Lao Tzu has finally waited until today!"

Excited, James Dolan took out a thick pile of 100-dollar knives from the drawer, which was worth tens of thousands, and threw it directly from the box to the audience below.

Hundreds of U.S. knife banknotes were scattered, like streamers, fluttering and falling on the audience.

“FUCK？ Who is so unqualified? Throwing something out of the box? What? It's the banknotes, well, that's fine! ”

"Which big boss is this who is giving out benefits again? I'll grab two, just enough for tonight's supper! ”

"Haha, it must be that Lin played too well tonight, so he directly scattered money on the spot, but this is a bit less, tens of thousands of dollars more!"

Seeing that some fans were scrambling on the second floor of the audience, the security personnel also quickly rushed up to maintain order and piggyback on the next wave.

Leading by nine points in the final three minutes was a clear advantage for the Knicks, but it was not yet to the point where the victory was in hand.

Isaiah Thomas told the main players to do a good job of defending at the last moments, and the offensive end was always dominated by Lin, and actively carried out blocking and dismantling and covering cooperation.

On the Lakers' side, the "Zen Master" encouraged everyone to put down psychological pressure and continue to play steadily according to the tactical guidelines, and also praised Al Jefferson in particular.

It's just the outcome of the opening game, and the "Zen Master" doesn't care too much, after all, the long-term vision is to take a long-term view, the Lakers have just joined Da Yao and Jefferson, and they need to keep running in to get better.

At least from tonight's game, the "Zen Master" saw the hope of the Lakers this season, the strength of Da Yao's No. 1 center in the West is undoubted, and Kobe's blocking and dismantling is the Lakers' unsolvable killer.

And Al Jefferson can also play the role of the team's three-in-command, and his role will not be weaker than that of Lamar Odom last season.

As for the team's overall performance tonight, but in the end it still failed to win against the Knicks, it can only be said that Lin Fei played too well.

Phil Jackson coached two of the best shooting guards in league history in the '90s and now '00s: Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.

But tonight, after witnessing Lin Fei's 60+ supergod performance, Phil Jackson had to admit that Lin Fei was closer to the god of basketball than Kobe.

And his style of play is completely different from Jordan and Kobe, which is a leap forward in the traditional quarterback.

Kobe Bryant was pale, and his clenched teeth never loosened.

Although he has already obtained 40+, which is another efficient personal data, Kobe Bryant is not happy at all, but feels aggrieved and angry.

Letting Lin Fei score 61 points on his head is a shame that the paranoid and competitive Black Mamba cannot accept.

So the outcome of this game, he must not just give up.

After the timeout, the main players of both teams returned to the court.

Isaiah Thomas, for his part, replaced Quentin Richardson with David Lee, adding height and rebounding protection in the defensive box.

The "Zen Master" replaced Vujacic with Luke Wharton.

Although chasing distractions, Kobe Bryant is no longer the hairy kid in the OK period who blindly works alone, and has learned to choose the best way on the offensive end.

After a block from the high post and Da Yao, Kobe broke through to attract the defense, passed the ball to the basket, and Da Yao, who assisted the follow, shook off Eddie Curry and dunked directly.

"Boom!"

Knicks (115) :(108) Lakers.

Lin Fei frowned slightly, walked up and had a quick conversation with Eddie Curry.

When defending against such offensive players, Eddie Curry's judgment will always be wrong.

The ball was converted, Lin Fei and Eddie Curry followed Yao Ke's example in blocking and dismantling at the top of the arc, misplaced and gave the ball to Eddie Curry, who was down.

Eddie Curry threw off Da Yao and hit the basket, and in the face of Al Jefferson's supplemental defense, he directly and savagely crashed away, and jumped up to return the dunk.

"Boom!"

"Beep!"

Before Eddie Curry could vent his anger, the referee's whistle sounded, blowing a foul on Eddie Curry's offense.

Since the Knicks' foul count had reached in the final quarter, Eddie Curry's offensive foul sent Al Jefferson, who fell to the ground, directly to the free throw line.

Eddie Curry spread his hands and was emotional, chattering at the referee, but was quickly persuaded by Marbury and Lin Fei, and almost ate another technical foul.

Judging from the high-definition quad-screen replay overhead, Al Jefferson did stand outside the half-arc of the reasonable collision zone, but the time to move over was a bit rushed.

So this time the decision to punish Eddie Curry for an offensive foul is indeed controversial.

The scene sounded the sparse black whistle of the fans, although it was the home court of the Knicks, but the referee still hoped that the game could be as anxious as possible to the end.

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

Al Jefferson, who went to the free throw line, made two free throws, and the Lakers went 4-0, and the difference was chased to only 5 points.

Knicks (115) :(110) Lakers.

At the critical moment, Lin Fei did not play any more tactical cooperation, and came to the front court with the ball, obviously to single Kobe Bryant again.

The other players on both teams all pulled away to create enough space for Lin Fei and Kobe to go heads-up.

Kobe Bryant, who was holding the jersey, had a fierce gaze, like a hungry wolf, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few cold words:

"Lin, I'm definitely going to guard against you this time!"

Lin Fei also said the most ruthless words lightly:

"Corvo, I'm going to score this time! Don't try to stop God when he comes! ”

Before the words fell, Lin Fei suddenly started, a crotch change backwards to connect the longitudinal drag step, while quickly mobilizing Kobe's defensive position, he suddenly broke through diagonally, and lightning passed Kobe Bryant's half of his body.

"Whoosh!"

Kobe Bryant turned over and chased closely, obviously preferring to let Lin Fei rush in rather than let him shoot three points from the outside.

Lin Fei did not hesitate in this regard, he hit the three-point line with one acceleration, and then hesitated to adjust the rhythm after stepping into the penalty area.

While throwing Kobe Bryant in front of him, there was suddenly a realistic Buddha worship action, and although Kobe Bryant was not shaken, he still subconsciously pounced on him.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Fei took advantage of the situation to lower the center of gravity and accelerate again, and finally passed Kobe Bryant's entire position, and after entering the basket, he used his body to cover, and directly threw the ball out of the layup with his low hand.

Kobe Bryant's flying body chasing hat that jumped up suddenly behind him was still half a beat slower after all, and the basketball wiped off the basket and bounced on the basket after four or five bumps, and finally fell out.

Lin Fei's dribbling breakthrough level has reached the top level in the league, but his 72-point layup attribute is still too bad after all.

This time, the whole process from breakthrough to layup was textbook-level, but the angle and strength of the final shot were still not grasped.

The Knicks fans who didn't wait for the home court felt pity, and two figures suddenly jumped up under the basket to grab rebounds, it was Da Yao and Eddie Curry.

"Smack!"

The ball was shot out by Da Yao for the first time, and David Lee, who was actively scrambling, quickly shook off Al Jefferson on the opposite side, and took the lead in controlling the ball near the right axis area of the free throw line.

Marbury hurriedly came up to answer, and at the same time, he watched and listened to all directions, and after receiving a pass from David Lee, he directly turned over and made a wonderful pass, and the ball quickly flew outside the three-point line at a 30-degree angle on the left.

"Whoosh!"

At this time, Lin Fei, who was inserted diagonally from under the basket, used a cross cover with Ariza to shake off Kobe Bryant and accurately received Marbury's pass.

He didn't have time to make any adjustments at the position of one step outside the three-point line, jumped up directly, faced the defense of Walton and Kobe, and used a very exaggerated backward range to shoot the ball decisively.

"Whoosh!"

The basketball flew leisurely past the fingertips of the two big defenders and whizzed towards the basket 8 meters away.

"Bang!"

"Huh!"

Fourteenth.

An explosive three-point shot made the tense fan atmosphere at Madison Square Square suddenly jubilant.

"Bang!"

Lin Fei also fell on his back on the court floor, and Wharton and Kobe almost didn't hit it.

"Beep!"

The referee's whistle also sounded, blowing a foul on Luke Wharton for Lin Fei's shot.

3+1。

Although he blocked Lin Fei's first breakthrough layup, he failed to limit his three-point shot on the second offense.

Kobe Bryant, whose forehead was covered with beads of sweat, was as heavy as water, and his defense ended in failure after all.

Marbury and Eddie Curry shouted excitedly, and hurriedly rushed up to help Lin Fei who fell to the ground.

Two young players, David Lee and Trevor Ariza, also felt the team's unity and value under the second score of this collective effort.

Although Lin Fei's 3+1 difficulty coefficient can be described as against the sky, as the so-called capable person works harder, fans seem to have become accustomed to Lin Fei who constantly plays a giant star.

On the contrary, Marbury, who delivered accurate and wonderful passes, and David Lee, who actively fought for rebounds, gave Knicks fans more hope.

"The Knicks are really different, and if we can play every game like we did tonight, we're definitely capable of winning any team in the East!"

"Stephen Marbury has 11 assists? Tonight's Marbury should be the most correct way for him to open it! ”

"Who doesn't want to win and who doesn't want to win? The old horse is also pitiful enough, and now he has finally ushered in his best partner! ”

"David Lee, this kid actually grabbed 7 rebounds tonight, I can't see it, a white forward, without top jumping talent, actually has such a good rebounding awareness!"

"Huh!"

In the cheers of the Knicks' home court, Lin Fei calmly walked to the free throw line and hit the free throw steadily.

With the success of this wave of 4 points, Lin Fei's personal score tonight also came to 65 points.

"My God, a personal single-game score of 65, Lin has surpassed Malone and O'Neal on the single-game scoring ranking of NBA all-time stars, soaring to No. 8!"

"It's an incredible 3+1, and Lin's leaning back when he jumps out is very exaggerated, almost at a 45-degree angle to the ground!"

"At the same time, this 3+1 is also the most perfect shot for the Knicks tonight, Eddie Curry and David Lee's active scramble, Stephen Marbury's wonderful pass, and Ariza's running cover, all laid the foundation for Lin's catch!"

Knicks (119) :(110) Lakers.

The margin was stretched to 9 points again, and at this time, there was only 1 minute and 39 seconds left until the end of the final quarter.

Scoring nine points in less than 100 seconds is a difficult task for any NBA team.

"Zen Master" did not choose to call a timeout again, and basically planned to let go of this game.

In front of Lin Fei, who is so supernatural tonight, if you want to win the game, let alone the current Lakers, even the Heat may not be so easy.

But Phil Jackson believes that Lin Fei can only play at a super level tonight, and no superstar can play such a crazy performance every night.

If that is the case, then he is no longer a man, but a god.

On the court, Kobe Bryant forced an outside three-point shot by blocking and dismantling, the basketball bounce frame missed, and Al Jefferson, who grabbed the offensive rebound, did not shoot a half-volley.

"Bang dang!"

The defensive rebound was protected by Eddie Curry, Lin Fei dribbled to delay time, and the Knicks were already winning.

The time quickly came to the last 1 minute of the final quarter, as Lin Fei walked to the free throw line after being fouled, and hit two free throws steadily, the Knicks' lead had reached 11 points.

"Huh!"

"Huh!"

Madison Garden Plaza was thunderous, many fans jumped up from their seats excitedly, twisted their waists and danced awkwardly, and some fans even sang.

Isaiah Thomas called a timeout and was content to replace Lin Fei and the main players.

The "Zen Master" side also disarmed and surrendered, and tonight the Lakers lost not so much to the Knicks, but to Lin Fei alone.

Lin Fei played 36 minutes tonight, with 67 points, 10 assists, 1 rebound, 4 steals and 2 blocks.

At the same time, he broke a number of NBA opener records, and single-handedly defeated the Lakers led by Kobe Bryant and Da Yao.

Lin Fei, who walked off the field, high-fived and hugged every teammate on the bench, and he was learning how to be a good team leader.

At this time, on the high-definition four-sided screen, Lin Fei's historical ranking of 67 points in a single game was also played.

In the 60-year history of the NBA, who can score more points in a single game than Lin Fei's 67 points tonight,

There are only seven players, Wilt Zhang, Kobe, David Thompson, Elgin Baylor, David Robinson, Jordan and Maravich.

"He only played 36 minutes in the whole game, with a total of 20 of 27 shots, 14 of 18 three-pointers, 6 of 9 two-point shots, 13 of 13 free throws, and 67 points, 10 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks!"

"Of all the players in the NBA who scored 60 points, Lin took the least amount of time, took the fewest shots, and shot the highest percentage from the field!"

"This opening game is destined to go down in the history of the NBA, Lin's arrival has really ushered in a huge turnaround for the Knicks, and I think those experts should re-evaluate the competitiveness of the Knicks in the East!"

The whistle blew soon after the end of the game, and the unwilling Kobe Bryant did not greet Lin Fei after the game, but directly turned his head and walked into the player tunnel with a calm face.

Knicks (123) :(114) Lakers.

There was cheering inside and outside Madison Square Garden, and fans were reluctant to leave the stadium for a long time, enjoying the sweet taste of victory.

Can't wait for the post-game press conference, ESPN beauty reporter Erin Andrews stepped on high heels and excitedly walked to Lin Fei's side and interviewed this old friend excitedly.

"Lin, your performance tonight is fantastic, this is going to be a game I will never forget!"

"What does it mean for you to score 67 points on just 27 shots?"

Lin Fei said seriously into the microphone handed by Andrews:

"First of all, thank you to my teammates and coaches, and to the fanatical support of the New York fans, without whom there would be no tonight's win and no 67 points for me!"

"This game means a lot to me, saying goodbye to the last three seasons and entering a whole new phase of my NBA career!"

"Lin, you played against Kobe Bryant all the way tonight, and you scored 67 points, 10 assists and 4 steals, beating Kobe's 45 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, and led the team to victory!"

"So in your opinion, do you think you have surpassed Kobe Bryant in terms of individual strength?"

"I think the fans should know the answer to this question best, the performance on the pitch speaks for itself!"

"Lin, Kobe Bryant scored 81 points in the game against the Raptors in January, and he took a total of 46 shots in that game, if you can also shoot 46 times in one night, do you think you can break the all-time record of Kobe Bryant's 81 points or even Zhang Bolun's 100 points?"

Lin Fei crossed his hands on his hips and continued into the microphone:

"My first goal when I step on the pitch is always to lead the team to win the game, as for how many shots I have to take, how many points I can score, everything depends on the situation of the game!"

"If the team needs me to take 30 or 40 shots to win the game, then I'm going to go crazy without hesitation!"

"Now I can only say that 67 points and 14 three-pointers in a single game will definitely not be my limit, and Wilt's 100 points in a single game will not be the limit of basketball and the NBA!"
