Chapter 116 'Basketball Park: Junlin World'
96 to 76.
The Nuggets are in hot form and defeated the visiting Cavaliers at home. Not only did they end their own four-game losing streak, they also gave the Cavaliers a four-game losing streak!
This wave, the Cavaliers send a warm message!
In terms of technical statistics, the Nuggets Anthony had 20 points, Iverson had 16 points and 4 assists, Smith had 14 points, Martin had 11 points and 8 rebounds, Lin Ying had 9 points, 6 rebounds, 11 assists and 4 steals, and Nene had 7 points and 13 rebounds.
James of the Cavaliers had 23 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, and Hughes had 9 points.
This three-quarter check-in is not about three heroes fighting Lu Bu, but a direct group fight to death.
After the game, James looked a little confused.
That feeling was very similar to the feeling when we were swept by the Spurs in the Finals last season.
I don’t know how to play anymore!
In sharp contrast is Anthony.
That excited expression, it feels so good to beat James!
"Keep up the good work, bro!"
Even when hugging James, he couldn't hide the emotion at all.
James almost suffered internal injuries.
At the post-game press conference, Karl attended with Anthony and Lin Ying.
This is the first time the two have attended a press conference together.
On the way there, Anthony couldn't help but hugged Lin Ying.
After defeating James and taking a lot of shots, he now likes Lin Ying very much.
When he arrived at the press conference, he was full of praise for Lin Ying.
"He should definitely be Rookie of the Year!"
"He has made the Nuggets better, and I feel we have a great chance to win the championship!"
"He won't be the next Yao, but he will become a better player than Yao!"
Anthony is awesome.
But this is in line with his casual nature.
From when he first went to watch the University of Texas game, to when he changed his views on Lin Ying several times, and now when he is generously praised, this is all reflected.
…
After the Nuggets beat the Cavaliers, the fans were in high spirits.
After all, the Cavaliers were the Eastern Conference champions last season and the team that reached the finals!
This wave of defeat made them completely forget about their previous four-game losing streak.
Winning can solve all problems, this sentence is true!
Domestic fans were also very excited. An article titled "There is only one king in the league, and it must be me, Lin!" continued to ignite fans' emotions.
After reading his article, you will feel that Lin Ying is already the number one player in the league.
And, that's not all, what really makes fans excited this time is the latest "Basketball Park".
The theme of this issue of the Basketball Park is called: "You will dominate the world!"
And unlike previous episodes where the program went directly into the program, this episode directly featured Lin Ying's top ten goals of the season before the program started.
The game has only started for a month, and a rookie who averages 12+ per game can actually be a top ten player?
Yes! And all of them are awesome!
Of course, the reason why this program is destined to become a hit is that its commentary on the top ten goals is so classic.
…
"On the fifth goal of the top ten, Lin Ying stole Kobe Bryant, making the Black Mamba feel what it means to strike first!"
(The Nuggets play the Lakers, Lin Ying steals Kobe Bryant for a fast break dunk)
"The fourth goal in the top ten, the Spurs only knew that Melo was in front, but they didn't know that the shadow was behind them. It was a bolt from the blue that shook the world!"
(The Nuggets beat the Spurs, Anthony missed a shot, Lin Ying scored a dunk)
"The third ball in the top ten, Lin Ying plays like a ghost, as fast as lightning, even the little emperor LeBron James can only watch the ball and sigh!"
(Nuggets play Cavaliers, Lin Ying steals James and dunks)
"On the second goal of the top ten goals, Lin Ying made a splash, making the Cavaliers run around, but they couldn't care about anything!"
(Nuggets play Cavaliers, Lin Ying passes the ball without looking at anyone and assists Anthony for an alley-oop dunk)
"The first goal in the top ten, Bruce Bowen gave everything he had, but he couldn't stop Lin Ying from swallowing mountains and rivers and dominating "Lin" the world!"
(Nuggets beat Spurs, Lin Ying dunks on Bowen)
…
The opening of this wave whetted the fans' appetite.
After entering the program, Yu Jia analyzed Lin Ying's indispensability to the Nuggets team from their season performance.
"This year's Nuggets overall have not changed much from last year. They may have lost one of their best defensive players, but what we can really feel is that they play more as a team than last year and have a chance to make it to the playoffs.
Further, this is the role of Lin Ying."
This issue of "Basketball Park" is also a hit in China.
Originally, at the beginning of the season, the Eastern Emperor and the Western Emperor were neck and neck, but after Yi Jianlian hit the rookie wall early, fans automatically focused on Lin Ying.
And the Nuggets are different from the Bucks. Not to mention their chances of winning the championship, they are at least a contending team.
Especially after the Nuggets just defeated last season's overall runner-up Cavaliers, it's hard not to think this program will be popular.
…
After defeating the Cavaliers, the Nuggets' morale was greatly boosted, and they then defeated the Mavericks and 76ers at home.
After four consecutive losses, there was another three-game winning streak.
If the sample size of one game is not enough, then three games can fully explain the problem.
To put it in a very vivid way: After a month of running-in, this Nuggets team finally found their winning mode and began to usher in a sweet "honeymoon period."
Their current record is 10 wins and 8 losses, ranking sixth in the Western Conference.
What they have to do next is to continue to heat up during the honeymoon period and strive to enter the top half before the end of the regular season.
On this day, the team flew to Houston to prepare for the second match against the Rockets of the season.
After finishing the training session the day before the game, Lin Ying went to Chinatown alone, preparing to meet Tang Tian, the old Chinese medicine doctor Oden had always recommended.
Lin Ying had only seen reports on Chinatown on TV before, and many of the scenes were glimpses.
Now that he has truly entered, he feels as if he is back in China again.
Houston's Chinatown is really mature, and Yao Ming's influence has just begun.
It seems that we can really discuss with Yao Ming about opening a branch of Yao Restaurant in Denver.
Making money is secondary, the main thing is having a place to eat Chinese food!
As a Chinese, he has had enough of those potato steak burgers every day.
Thinking about it, he had unknowingly walked to the Chinese medicine clinic that Auden mentioned.
The size of this place is pretty good.
Lin Ying actually has a general feeling about traditional Chinese medicine.
It's not that he doesn't recognize this medicine, but that there are too many clinics in China that are misleading people.
He felt dizzy and went to several clinics before. Each clinic gave different answers and took several kinds of medicine.
The medicines all taste different, but have a common effect: useless.
When he entered, he saw a female apprentice working there.
He couldn't help but go back and take a look at the address to make sure he walked in again just now.
He remembered that Oden said he was a male apprentice. How could he be replaced in such a short time?
The store was a little busy at this point, and people cut in line from time to time.
Lin Ying waited for a while and stood up. He took out the Rolex watch that Anthony had given him earlier in his pocket and put it on. He walked up and asked how long it would take.
The female apprentice originally wanted to deal with it, but when she lowered her head and saw the watch, she immediately took Lin Ying inside with a smile.
There are also people queuing up inside.
When seeing this, Lin Ying suddenly felt that this time might not be in vain.
Just like when you eat, you would choose a crowded place to go. If there are many people, there must be many people.
As far as traditional Chinese medicine clinics are concerned, it means that it is most likely to be useful.
Lin Ying originally wanted to sit down and wait, but unexpectedly, the female apprentice led him directly to the door, knocked on the door, and asked him to go in and wait.
After entering, Lin Ying saw Tang Tian.
Bright forehead, wise eyes, calm demeanor, gentle speech.
The most important thing is that he is wearing a mask!
Plus the iconic wolfberry thermos cup on the table.
The first impression is that it is very reliable.
Tang Tian was taking a woman's pulse, prescribing a prescription three times, five times five times two, and then asked her to take the medicine.
That is, after the woman left, he motioned for Lin Ying to go over and sit down.
"I can make an appointment here. I have a business card here. Just give it to your boss."
After Lin Ying sat down, he opened the drawer and took out a business card and handed it over as he spoke.
Lin Ying was stunned for a moment. Was this... thinking of him as a bodyguard or a driver?
Seeing that Lin Ying didn't answer, Tang Tian was a little confused.
"I'm seeing a doctor myself, and I've been experiencing some pain in my limbs recently."
Lin Ying explained.
Only then did Tang Tian realize that he had misunderstood, so he put the business card away and asked again:
"For what?"
"Play basketball, NBA."
"Are you playing basketball again? There was a black man named Zou Deng before. Do you know him?"
"Well, he recommended me to come."
"I've only heard of the Chinese playing basketball, Yao Ming. Give me your hand."
"I just came here this year."
Tang Tian nodded and already took Lin Yinghao's pulse.
"Very good?"
After calling his left hand, he signaled Lin Ying to extend his right hand.
After all the numbers were finished, he smiled and said:
"You are in very good health, and you even have a little excess energy. Remember to find a girlfriend."
"..."
Lin Ying was speechless for a moment. Tang Tian looked very old, but his words seemed a bit unserious!
"Get down and let me check you."
Tang Tian then motioned for him to get up.
After some manipulation of his hands, Tang Tian walked back to his seat and sat down.
"Do you usually train a lot?"
"Well, it's half as long as the 'stoking light' you mentioned."
Lin Ying nodded.
"Young man, do what you can. Although you are young, your body can't bear the stress. Did you receive any medical care after training?"
"Medical care?"
"I don't know how you do it over there. According to traditional Chinese medicine, there is a thing called cupping. It is mainly used to relieve muscle soreness and relieve fatigue."
After Tang Tian finished speaking, Lin Ying probably understood.
He remembered some news he had read before, which said that athletes like to get something called "cryotherapy" after training.
It's not Phil Handy's fault that he didn't understand this, because he remembers that this thing only became popular in the NBA in 2011.
Before that, it was more common to apply ice after the game, and it was mainly for injuries.
On the other hand, it was cupping. He had heard of it a lot, but he had never experienced it.
Oh, by the way, he remembered a Chinese comic he had watched before, "Spirit Cage", which is known as "the pinnacle of Chinese comics".
In the final chapter, there is an explosive fight scene between Boss Bai and the protagonist Mark. To briefly summarize the process, it is probably the forced removal of a cupping pot.
"I'll let Xiao Huo try it for you. If it feels good, you can come often."
"Um, that woman? Didn't you have a male apprentice before?"
Lin Ying was stunned for a moment, he hadn't even touched the girl's hand.
"You said that Xiao Wu seemed to have been caught for messing around, and I didn't bother to care."
"..."
This is really the time.
"Also, Xiao Huo is a boy, although he is a bit handsome, and his ancestors studied pharmacology, so don't worry."
"Ah? Male?"
Ah, how can you tell whether I am male or female?
Lin Ying was really a little shocked.
But it's easy to say it's a man.
After leaving the room, he looked for Xiao Huo.
Xiao Huo took him to a room and started cupping.
The process was pretty much what he imagined. He first checked whether there were any wounds on his back, wiped them clean and lit the fire in the cupping jars, and then fastened them one by one.
The time was also very fast, I took it down in about ten minutes.
After finishing it, Lin Ying moved his body and felt that the soreness after training had disappeared.
Theoretically speaking, this thing won't take effect so quickly. I don't know if it has a psychological effect.
He then returned to Tang Tian's room.
When he knocked on the door and entered, he saw that Tang Tian had taken off his mask for some reason and had a kind face.
In front of him was a little boy who looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, with short hair, handsome features, and very clean appearance.
When he saw him coming in, the little boy was stunned for a moment, and then shouted out in surprise:
"Emperor Lin?!"
…
No, I'm not, so ashamed.
"Shu Yu, do you know him?"
Tang Tian was a little surprised.
"He is Lin Ying. He plays in the NBA. He is very handsome and he is also very good at basketball!"
The little boy had a very fond expression.
"I forgot, you little girl also plays basketball."
Tang Tian said lovingly.
What the fuck? Little... girl?
It was only then that he realized that the person in front of him spoke in a female voice.
Can you tell whether I am male or female 2.0?
But compared to that little Huo, the little girl in front of me felt much more comfortable.
"Grandpa, give me a marker pen quickly. I want him to sign it for me!"
The little girl's face was full of excitement.
Wait! Grandpa?!
Is this little girl Tang Tian’s granddaughter?
After signing the little girl's name, Lin Ying sat down and wanted to continue talking to Tang Tian about medical care.
But the little girl actually sat next to him and watched him without leaving.
After a brief chat, Lin Ying stood up and left.
He is not yet sure how much this cupping will help him, and he will have to wait at least two days to see the effect.
If it was really useful, he would like to directly invite Tang Tian to be his physical therapist.
Speaking of which, since he can't spend money now, he should think about how to spend it.
Nothing helps him more than building a team.
Like James and others in history, they all have a team, from trainers to nutritionists, physical therapists, masseurs, etc.
Compared with squandering, this kind of investment in your own body is also the most valuable.
Moreover, due to the physical deficiencies of the yellow race, these should be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
I left my contact information and he went back first.
He left the room, but he didn't expect that the little girl was still following him.
By the time he got to the door, the little girl must have mustered up the courage to invite him to go shopping in Chinatown with her.
Lin Ying...rejected directly.
How could he have that time?
Now he has to go back to have dinner and rest afterward. After resting, he will practice more in the evening.
The little girl was a little disappointed, and then asked Lin Ying if he would come again.
"possible."
Lin Ying was indeed unsure, and he didn't know what the little girl wanted to do.
A girl of 17 or 18 years old has not finished high school. Even if she studies in the United States, she will take the SAT exam. Have you finished the homework assigned by the teacher?
The little girl was a little disappointed, but she still smiled sweetly and said:
"My name is Yang Shuyu. I can play basketball and am your fan. If you come here next time, can you teach me how to play?"
…
The next night, the Nuggets narrowly defeated the Rockets 112-110 on the road, extending their winning streak to four games.
After continuously defeating powerful enemies, even sports media such as ESPN in the United States used similar words to Yu Jia’s previous words:
"Lin changed the Nuggets."
Using this description for a Chinese rookie, Lin Ying has won respect for himself with his performance.
And the effect of "winning solves all problems" continues.
The atmosphere within the Nuggets team has never been more harmonious.
Many teammates, including Martin and Iverson, are discussing helping Lin Ying continue to strive for Rookie of the Month.
I even want to help him compete with Durant for the Rookie of the Year award.
After defeating the Pacers and Hawks in succession, the Nuggets extended their winning streak to 6 games!
Chapter completed!
