A different point guard road

At the beginning of the game, Lin Rui ranked among the top in the league in multiple statistics.

Lin Rui has such confidence.

After the press conference, Lin Rui returned to the hotel and started to watch the video.

This is Lin Rui's habit. No matter how much he leads in a big score, he will pay great attention to every playoff game.

g4 competition day.

Fans have no doubts about whether the Knicks can enter the Eastern Conference Finals. They just want to see if the Knicks will sweep the Magic.

Before the game, Tekoglu said to reporters: "We will not give up, we are all working hard. If the record has the opportunity to change, we will definitely be what we can do."

Nelson said: "We will win tonight's game with all our might."

Howard said: "The whole world already thinks we have been eliminated, but we will not be discouraged!!"

Magic is indeed at its best in recent years, and they are full of tenacity.

Even when facing the desperate situation of falling behind 0 to 3, they still did not give up easily.

"The Magic player's mouth is really hard."

"I'm not admitting my defeat!"

"To be honest, the Magic is indeed a strong team, but the Knicks are stronger."

"The Magic need to strengthen their key ball abilities, otherwise they will not be able to compete with the Knicks at critical moments."

"Although Howard looks miserable, no one can break his defense well except Lin Rui."

"Magic magic is still honorable even if it is defeated."

............

Amway Center Arena.

7:30.

The battle of g4 begins.

The stadium here is still full of seats.

Lin Rui received booing from the audience when he appeared.

"According to previous news, Zach Randolph was out of the game due to injury."

"We are not sure what the specific situation is."

"This is good news for the Magic. Randolph contributed a lot of inside singles in the first three games, which caused great trouble for the Magic."

"But the Knicks have plenty of inside reserves, and on the bench, they still have enough heights."

The commentator is reporting the latest situation.

Indeed, Randolph was a little uncomfortable, but nothing serious. D'Antoni just chose to be conservative and let him rest.

Even without Randolph, the Knicks still have enough inside height, which is D'Antoni's confidence.

Randolph cheered his teammates in the audience behind the bench in a suit.

The Knicks starter: Lin Rui, Tony Allen, Korver, Tucker, Yao Dayao.

Magic starters: Nelson, Pitrus, Tkogru, Lewis, Howard.

Magic performed personnel rotation on No. 2.

Yao and Howard jump ball.

Finally, Yao Yu jumped the ball this time to win.

Yao Da transferred the ball to Tony Allen.

Tony Allen gave the ball to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball through halftime.

As soon as Lin Rui got the ball, a huge boo sounded again on the scene.

Fans hope that Lin Rui can perform abnormally, so that the pressure on the magic will not be that great.

Lin Rui was not worried when he heard the booing. He understood that this was the fear of the fans. If he was an unknown little character, how could the fans take care of him so much?

Lin Rui wanted to defeat his opponent in such booing, so that the fans could not express their emotions.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and conducted the ball.

Although the tactics will completely revolve around Lin Rui as the core, Lin Rui will not have to attack by himself from the beginning.

Lin Rui will constantly transfer the ball to help his teammates improve their enthusiasm.

After guiding the ball for two laps, he continued to Lin Rui's hands.

Pitrus' single defense.

The Magic now encourages Lin Rui to play singles, and they adopt the same defensive strategy as in the last game.

In the last game, they thought they had done their best in defense.

Lin Rui also understood the defensive intentions of the magic.

Since he is defending him one-on-one, he is not polite.

Pitrus faces Lin Rui in height, but his speed and reaction are far inferior to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui's two large forward directions were changed in succession.

"Bang!"

Lin Rui's direction change is very large, and his fake moves are also very realistic. Pitrus' defense is very hard, and he wants to defend Lin Rui's breakthrough.

But unfortunately, Lin Rui still broke through the past.

Pitrus quickly chased back, and Lin Rui stepped back and bounced outside the three-point line.

Pitrus still wants to follow.

but!

"Bang!"

Pitrus' ankle was not allowed, and he supported the ground with both hands.

Lin Rui did not hesitate after collecting the ball outside the three-point line and made a quick jump shot.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc!!

"Swish!!"

3 to 0,

After Lin Rui scored the goal, he put his index finger beside his mouth and signaled all the fans to stop the sound.

The momentum at the scene also slid slightly, but it quickly rebounded again.

The fans hated Lin Rui's provocative actions and expressed their dissatisfaction one by one.

Lin Rui continued to laugh after hearing a bigger boo.

Pitrus stood up and looked at Lin Rui speechlessly. From beginning to end, Lin Rui never looked at him.

"Lin Rui's shaking man is really amazing. He will be shaken all over the magic."

"It's difficult to limit Lin Rui one-on-one."

"Today, Lin Rui did not pass the ball in the first round, but chose to play resolutely."

"The team formed by players who were knocked down by Lin Rui should be able to grab the championship."

Most fans watching TV support the Knicks.

Lin Rui showed a good outside feel from the beginning of this game.

"Don't think too much, keep trying to defend." Howard encouraged Pitrus.

As a man who has been humiliated by Lin Rui many times, Howard provides psychological counseling to his younger brother.

Pitrus nodded firmly, and Van Gundy asked him to start, but he was not very satisfied with Barnes' defense. He wanted him to try defending Lin Rui. This was a chance for him to seize it.

Magic attack.

Nelson brought the ball to the frontcourt and organized the conduction of the circle.

The Knicks' defense is also online, without losing positions.

Tkoglu lifted the ball to Lewis in the low post, hoping that Lewis would use his height to eat Tucker.

Lewis received the ball in a low post and leaned against him.

Tucker is really too short to play as a power forward, which makes Lewis, who is not good at carrying the back and forth, want to play him with his back and forth.

But Lewis obviously thought it was simple.

Lewis hit her back continuously, and Tucker's position did not retreat at all.

Tucker was much harder than Lewis thought.

Lewis had to split the ball and give it to Tkoglu.

The Tkoglu Yun took a step forward to Tony Allen's defense stop in the middle distance.

Tkoglu is taller, and Tony Allen tried his best to interfere with the ball, but it is still a little worse.

Basketball took action successfully.

"box!"

"box!"

"Swish!"

The basketball flipped the basket twice before bounced in.

2 to 3.

Knicks attack.

Lin Rui did not play singles this round and initiated a pick-and-roll with Yao Yao.

After the pick-and-roll, Howard and Pitrus switched defense.

Lin Rui did not hit Howard, but instead hanged the ball high to Yao.

Yao directly knocked away Pitrus, grabbed the ball with one hand and pressed the frame and dunked!!

"box!"

2 to 5

If Howard is not in the inside, Yao will be very relaxed.

Magic attack.

Tkoglu initiated a pick-and-roll with Howard.

After the pick-and-roll, Yao also saved to defend Tekoglu.

Tkoglu hit the ground to help Howard take off.

Howard took the ball and took three steps, and Tony Allen was also knocked away.

"box!!"

4 to 5.

The magic responded quickly to the Knicks, almost in the same way.

The cheers of the fans at the scene immediately started.

The magic response was tough.

But the cheers from the fans did not last long, and the Knicks' offensive came again.

The Knicks' offense is still Lin Rui facing Pitrus.

Pitrus confronted Lin Rui and did not give Lin Rui a comfortable dribble opportunity.

Lin Rui transferred the ball to Tucker at the free throw line.

Tucker did not attack by himself, but waited for Lin Rui to run over and pass the ball handily, and then covered Lin Rui with the opportunity.

Pitrus was blocked, Lewis assisted in defense, and Lin Rui pointed Lewis with a fake move.

The ball was dribbling with the trend.

Howard's assisted defense was slow, and Lin Rui made a layup with an easy pull-up.

4 to 7.

Zhang Weiping said: "Lin Rui led the Knicks' offensive, and their condition was obviously better than the previous game."

Xu Jicheng said: "This is not a good thing for magic. Lin Rui's offense feels like it's about to come out."

Magic attack.

Tkoglu continued to launch a pick-and-roll with Howard.

This time Tony Allen did not change defense with Yao Yao.

The result of not changing defense was that Howard got space and Tkoglu passed the ball to Howard.

Howard rushed up directly, and Yao raised his hand to defend.

"Bang!"

"Beebee!"

"box!"

5 to 7

Howard pushed Yao's dunk and then added free throws.

Howard really lost his life in this ball. In the first three games, he could dodge as long as he could when he met Yao Yu, and today he chose to face the game head-on.

Howard stood on the free throw line.

"box!"

Without the free throw, Lin Rui went in to control the rebound.

The Knicks' offense is back.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball quickly to the frontcourt, and Yao continued to cover Lin Rui.

However, this cover was not successful and the defense was still the same.

Lin Rui gave the ball to Tony Allen.

Tony Allen Yun went in and returned to Lin Rui.

Lin Rui immediately burst out and sprinted past Pitrus when he received the ball, and Lin Rui rushed into the inside.

Lin Rui did not just look at the basket, he kept observing his teammates' movements while he was moving.

Lin Rui saw Tucker at the bottom corner.

Tucker was emptied by Lewis.

Lin Rui passed the ball to Tucker.

Tucker's corner took decisive action.

The knife is falling!!

"Swish!!"

5 to 10.

Although the Magic's offense continues to make progress, the Knicks still open the lead gap.

Van Gundy frowned on the sidelines. Lin Rui's pass was fatal to the Magic every time.

Barkley said: "Lin Rui has a very good overall view, and he can always find his teammates who are open at the first time."

"Yes, he's very familiar with every teammate's dessert area, which will put them in a very comfortable shooting rhythm," Smith said.
