This striker is not serious

Billups' performance was a stroke of genius. Of course, its biggest significance was that it made the Knicks dare not easily attack Lin Ying again.

Lin Ying was also able to activate his personal performance mode, leading the Nets to a stalemate with the Knicks.

The game came to the last 20 seconds in a blink of an eye, and the two sides were tied again.

96 square meters.

It's a familiar scene, but what's different from the last game is that the ball in the final attack this time is in the hands of the Nets.

Pause time.

Sloan made arrangements for Lin Ying to kill him.

It can be seen from the tactical arrangements at several critical moments that Sloan is the kind of person who seeks stability from his tactical system to his arrangements.

This is a coaching habit.

After Sloan finished setting up, Lin Ying pulled Billups over.

"Chauncy, get ready to catch and shoot."

He didn't think Sloan's arrangement was wrong, but he thought the Knicks would most likely double-team him.

Billups nodded.

Well, just like Steve Kerr back then.

As the game approached, Billups and Chandler walked towards the court one after another.

At this moment, Lin Ying grabbed Yi Jianlian.

"Ah Lian, if you receive the ball, don't hesitate, just take the shot if you are open."

Yi Jianlian looked at Lin Ying in surprise, then nodded vigorously.

Do you think Lin Ying, like Jordan, only trusts Cole?

No, he is casting a wide net.

Because he guessed that the Knicks would double-team him, but what he didn't know was who Rivers would arrange to do it.

Getting everyone ready to catch the ball is the safest way.

If he guessed wrong, Rivers wouldn't arrange a double attack?

Isn't that the best chance to kill?

After the timeout came back, the fans at the scene held their breath unconsciously.

They had already been defeated once in G3 before. The same thing shouldn't happen again, right?

When the Nets' sideline ball came out, Lin Ying held the ball outside the three-point line, and everyone else spread out on both sides.

Different from the Knicks' choice in the last game, Lin Ying had the ball to press the time.

No one is right or wrong, there are different things to consider.

Sloan was going to take the last shot, but he was also ready to play overtime with the Knicks.

Time passed bit by bit, and finally with 10 seconds left before the end of the game, Lin Ying held the ball and launched an attack.

Prince's goal was fully anticipated, but Lin Ying's explosive breakthrough was not only the first step, but also the violent confrontation after the start.

James' early double attack.

Lin Ying's prediction was correct with this speed of assisting defense. It was a flanking attack arranged by Rivers.

It's not that Lin Ying has the ability to predict the future, but this kind of judgment is not difficult to make.

In the last game, Rivers was sprayed with hate by the fans because he didn't double-team, so let's see if he double-checks!

And the details are different.

Neither side called a timeout in the last game, so Rivers had no time to arrange defensive tactics.

If he had rashly called someone to flank him at that time, the fans would have just sprayed him without buffering after the game.

And please note that this is a defensive tactic, not simply arranging individuals to double-team.

When James was helping to defend, Wade, who was farther away, was already moving towards Billups to help defend.

Dynamic assist defense rotation to shorten the defense time as much as possible.

In this way, even if Lin Ying knows how to pass the ball, because passing the ball takes time, the receiver will only have a split second to react to complete the shot.

During this defensive timeout, Rivers' defensive level was absolutely online.

Lin Ying did not pass the ball immediately, he was trying to break through the attack between Prince and James!

Just like we did in the last game.

But this time he failed.

The two top defenders are not vegetarians. They suffered losses in the last game. They must have studied it after the game.

But before Lin Ying realized that he couldn't pass, he had already passed the ball.

The target of his pass was Jimmy Butler, who was cutting along the baseline!

Originally, his tactical position was the three-pointer from the bottom corner.

However, the Knicks' quick defensive rotation let him know that he would not get the chance easily, so he took the initiative to cut to the basket.

Golf intelligence is often reflected in instant judgment on the court!

Lin Ying's pass came to him, and he almost chose to throw the ball quickly after receiving the ball.

Although he was not among the people Lin Ying talked to during the pause, Lin Ying had said similar words to him before the game!

James showed his incredible reaction speed and turned back to cover Butler.

But it’s still a little late!

The ball flew past James' fingertips and toward the backboard.

The hearts of the fans at the scene suddenly rose to their throats!

"Bang!"

James lost control of his body and beat Butler.

The referee didn't blow the whistle either.

The mouths of the referees in this kind of winning and losing games are very tight!

"Bang!"

Butler's shot hit the backboard.

At this time, the red light on the sidelines has turned on.

Chandler and Landry jumped up from the basket and both struggled to get their hands back. When they encountered the ball, they interfered with the ball offensively or defensively.

In the eyes of the fans, the basketball is rushing towards the basket surrounded by long arms.

"Dang!"

The basketball hit the edge of the backboard.

The fans at the scene felt their hearts drop.

But immediately, their hearts suddenly lifted again.

Because the ball bounced off the basket and then hit the other side of the basket.

Then, it spun in a circle on the basket!

The fans felt as if their breathing had almost stopped.

The basketball seems to be spinning in circles, but in fact it is swinging wildly between the fate of the two teams!

Finally, after spinning twice on the rim, the basketball...

Fell into the net bag!

Butler's winning goal was scored!

The fans at the scene held their heads in disbelief.

They were defeated by the Nets in two consecutive games! Again!

Especially now that Deron has been expelled!

Nets players rush onto the court like crazy.

When Butler was knocked to the ground, he covered his face and tried to get as many whistles from the referee as possible.gif.

But after seeing the ball go in through the gap between his fingers, he suddenly turned over from the ground.

Then, a group of people from the Nets celebrated wildly on the court.

Under Lin Ying's greeting, several people on the periphery quickly brought a bunch of drinking glasses and poured water on Butler's head.

Butler howled excitedly.

At this time, commentator Seacole's dirty talk was online again.

"Jimmy Butler's buzzer-beater is worth thousands of dollars."

Lin Ying said before that Johnson's injury is an opportunity for Butler.

Butler's performance before was good, and now he also contributed a winning goal.

This will likely earn him an early contract extension from the Nets.

Cole's words, if you don't have any knowledge, you won't be able to react at once!

Off camera, the Knicks players all had expressions of disbelief.

Wade shook his head helplessly, Bosh looked blank, and James held his head and bit his braces.

As for Rivers, his expression was even a little numb.

Without a flanking attack, Lin Ying will kill;

During the double attack, Butler made a sure kill.

It's like there are two cages in front of him, one cage contains a tiger, and the other cage contains a group of wolves, and he is asked to choose which one to enter.

No matter which one you choose, you will die!

3 to 1!

After winning two consecutive home games against the Knicks, the Nets got the match point in the series.

What Wade said before is coming true bit by bit.

The only thing wrong is that the leading team is the Nets and not the Knicks!

And G5 is at the home court of the Nets.

Last season, the Knicks entered the Finals and were swept by the Mavericks. In the new season, the team made major transactions and worked hard to avenge their past humiliation.

But now, they may not even make it to the finals!

This time social media has completely exploded.

"Doug Rivers is really not good. This kind of lineup that can win championships led by O'Neal's grandma is actually played like this by him!"

"I have long said that Rivers is not suitable for the Knicks at all. There are only three axes in positional warfare. Not to mention Sloan, I already know how to defend him!"

"Riley should take the blame. He chose the coach. D'Antoni can't do it without defense, but you can't suddenly change to a coach who only defends!"

"Everything the Knicks did this season was on the line, except for the coaching issue. I think George Karl is pretty good."

"+1, Karl is still Lin's former mentor. He must know Lin very well and know how to defend and target."

"+2, no matter who it is, just don't be Rivers. Rivers really pissed me off!"

…

After Rivers was forced to accept this information, his entire expression went numb.

That feeling was even more uncomfortable than when I was killed.

Knicks fans are really not that easy to serve!

That's because your own players will be booed at home if they don't perform well, and you'll also be booed by unfavorable rookies in the draft!

At the post-game press conference, Sloan took Lin Ying and Butler with him.

Lin Ying performed well tonight, contributing a double-double with 25 points and 11 assists.

But the focus of tonight's press conference was Butler who finally contributed the winning goal.

"Lin told me before the game to be ready to catch the ball at the last moment."

Butler is very practical.

However, his behavior made the fans in the audience agitated.

Jordan just asked Cole to prepare before the last attack, but Lin Ying directly asked Butler to prepare before the game!

In addition to Butler's buzzer-beater, reporters were also concerned about Deron's conflict on the court.

The target of their questions was Sloan.

Everyone knows the grudge between Sloan and Deron, and Deron's impulsiveness almost ruined the team's victory tonight.

"That's not the right choice. We are all here to play, not to fight."

Sloan first gave the conflict a character.

The reporters nodded one after another. These words deserved a close-up after the game.

Deron failed Sloan again? It sounds like he is full of traffic!

"But if it were me, I would do the same thing when faced with provocation."

However, what the coach said next left many reporters stunned.

This turn of events was unexpected.

However, some older reporters did not appear surprised.

You know, Sloan is the coach with the most technical fouls in the NBA!

And more importantly than this, Sloan was a 6-time All-Defensive Team player as a player.

In that era, being tough on defense wasn't just about talking, it was about fighting.

So he denied Delong's choice, but affirmed Delong's approach!

Fortunately, Delong was not at the scene, otherwise his emotions would have been unbearable again.

…

The next day, the league announced the final punishment for Sloan: Deron was fined $100,000 and suspended for 2 games.

This amount of fine directly refreshed Hibbert's highest fine of the season set not long ago.

This is normal. After all, Hibbert was just talking, but Deron took action directly.

Especially in the context of Stern's continuous and severe punishment of violent incidents on the court in the past two years.

However, compared to fines, suspensions attract more attention and cause greater controversy.

For the Nets, this can be said to be devastating.

The Nets won the last game because there was some luck involved.

Billups performed well in the last game, hitting 4 three-pointers and scoring 18 points.

This is even his highest score this season with the Nets.

Obviously, at the age of 36, he cannot maintain this performance forever.

For Knicks fans, they think this suspension is too little!

According to the standard of severe punishment, this must only start in 5 games!

However, this number of suspended games reflects Stern's level.

Because it can be explained, after all, it was Martin who made the first move, and Deron counterattacked.

Of course, the more important thing is to be suspended for 2 games.

In this way, the greatly damaged Nets are likely to be dragged into the tiebreaker by the Knicks.

Tie-break? Who doesn’t love watching it?

So, if the Nets lose in G4, the league will only ban Deron for 1 game?

Not absolutely, but it's very likely.

While fans were discussing Deron's suspension and penalty, G4 between the Mavericks and Lakers in the Western Conference also ended on the same day.

Carlisle narrowed his defense in a targeted manner, leaving the three-point line to Kobe and Paul.

This strategy works very well. Neither Paul nor Kobe is the kind of player who can kill the game with three-pointers at any time.

107 to 93, the Mavericks came back and tied the series at 2-2.

Unlike the situation in the East, where the situation is gradually becoming clearer, it is still unclear which of the two teams in the West can break out of the siege.

One day later, Game 5 kicked off at Madison Square Garden.

Although Martin was beaten on the court, he still appeared in the Knicks' starting lineup.

But Delong could only watch from the sidelines in suits and leather shoes.

Such a comparison shows that Martin's beating was not in vain.

The Nets played very tenaciously on match points under the leadership of Lin Ying.

Billups' performance dropped in this game, scoring only 10 points and making only 3 of 11 field goals.

When players reach this age, it is difficult for them to perform well continuously.

After all, Rivers is not really a vegetarian. It is much easier to target a veteran than Lin Ying.

Lin Ying found himself fighting alone in this game.

He scored 37 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists in the game, but at the end of the game, the Nets still lost to the Knicks 104-114.

The next game will be back at the Knicks' home court.

After losing the best opportunity, the series between the two sides is likely to reach a tiebreaker.

After the G5 game, Deron apologized directly to his teammates in the locker room.

The Nets are not in bad shape tonight. If he is here, the team will definitely win.

Lin Ying reached out and patted Delong on the shoulder.

Deron was indeed a little impulsive in his last game, especially in the playoffs.

Restraint is a lesson that must be learned, which is why you see many stars laughing off even if they are provoked.

It’s not that I’m a coward, but winning basketball games always comes first.

However, the reason why he patted Deron on the shoulder was to make Deron stop blaming himself so much.

Compared to Ou Shenxian, or even compared to Lawson who drove drunk, Deron's impulsiveness is really nothing.

Moreover, the G6 Nets may not lose.
