"Whoa!"
Lin Ying also received additional penalties.
64 to 49!
After Lin Ying's continuous scoring performance, the Nets opened the point difference to 15 points!
15 points is a tough hurdle tonight!
Now let’s see if the Knicks can narrow the point difference again!
The answer was soon revealed, no!
The Knicks made a coordination error on the offensive end, and James' pass to Prince went directly out of bounds.
Originally, Lin Ying's crazy scoring performance put a lot of pressure on them.
Now the defection of our own fans is more like someone stabbing them in the heart from behind.
Even if he didn't die, it would still be terrible.
And what's worse than the mistake is that James showed no emotion after the mistake, and walked directly to the backcourt without spreading his hands.
Rivers' gap reached a point where something was wrong, so he reached out and called a timeout.
At this time, there was an interesting scene on the sidelines.
When Lin Ying came off the field, Sloan reached out to him and gave him a big hug.
There's a lot going on in that hug, but maybe that's just Sloane's character.
Some things cannot be said, but some things do not necessarily have to be said.
This year of coaching was so meaningful to his life.
After returning from the timeout, the Knicks' mental state has improved a lot.
Rivers' chicken soup always maintains its freshness no matter when and where.
This ability is unmatched by other coaches.
Nets possession of the ball.
Lin Ying ran without the ball to catch the ball and made a feint. He accelerated through the attack and went inside. He faced Martin and pulled the ball with one hand in the air to dodge and then hit the board.
The difficulty of this ball has reached full level.
"Bang!"
But the ball still fell into the net after hitting the board!
Just like Cole said, Lin Ying in this section is unstoppable.
The referee's whistle came a little late, and the ball was another 2+1.
The Knicks' morale plummeted, and Rivers' chicken soup was all in vain.
After landing, Lin Ying also felt refreshed.
The feeling of entering a white-hot space this time is different from the previous ones.
The biggest difference is that he feels more free to do whatever he wants.
This is also reasonable. The white-hot space stimulates the potential of the human body and increases the upper limit of human ability.
But fundamentally, it still depends on the person’s own abilities.
To give a simple example, when you are playing a game, you sometimes enter a white-hot space state and your operations are amazing.
But if the opponent changes players at this time and a professional player comes up, you will find that your hands cannot keep up with your brain and will be rubbed crazily.
Lin Ying is taking steps every year, and his strength this year will definitely be stronger than last year.
"Whoa!"
Lin Ying's additional penalty is also...
The point difference has reached 18 points!
Only then did the Knicks fans at the scene come back to their senses.
They will be eliminated soon!
"Dang!"
Then, James contributed a strike from the outside!
Asked why James didn't enter the white-hot space?
Everyone's entry conditions are different, but there is a similar condition, which is the desire to win.
Obviously, Lin Ying's scoring not only boosted the morale of the Nets players, but also destroyed the Knicks' confidence in the game.
Especially the 2+1 that didn't look so violent, but was like rubbing salt into the wound. It can be said that the Knicks' confidence has dropped to the bottom.
At halftime, the Nets led the Knicks 75-53.
The Knicks scored 53 points at halftime. This was in the playoffs and in front of the Nets. Their offensive performance was actually not that bad, it could even be considered good.
But the problem is that the Nets scored 75 points at halftime!
Well, they broke their team's half-time scoring record again!
And that’s even when both Deron and Johnson are absent!
Among them, Lin Ying scored 25 points in the first quarter, 17 points in the second quarter, and 42 points in the half!
The others together scored 33 points, which doesn't seem so strange.
Returning from the halftime break, the Knicks' mental outlook looked quite good again.
It's just that Rivers looks very tired.
Looking at this posture, he spent a lot of energy in the midfield to make a thick chicken soup.
At the beginning of the second half, the Knicks performed well on both offense and defense.
James seems to be a little bit uneasy, after all, he was the main victim in the first half...
But Wade, Bosh, and Ray Allen all performed.
The Knicks launched a 10-2 offensive, narrowing the point difference to about 15 points again, forcing Sloan to stand up from the bench.
The cheers were loud.
Although it is a bit embarrassing to be 23 points behind the remnant Nets at halftime, it would be even more exciting if it can be reversed in the end.
They have also considered the possibility of meeting the Mavericks again in the finals!
After all, Bogut is injured now, and he will be at a huge disadvantage when facing the Mavericks inside. If he wants revenge, his morale must be high.
Nothing boosts morale like a reversal like this!
"Whoa!"
But at this moment, Lin Ying caught the ball and turned around to face Prince and hit the target!
By the end of halftime, he had come out of the white-hot space.
But he is still in a sub-white-hot space, and his body's instinctive reaction still allows him to perform well.
And after returning to the defensive end, he directly helped defend and gave Wade a big block.
The Knicks' attack failed, but when they looked back, it was Lin Ying who crossed the line and drove into the Knicks' interior, causing a foul!
When watching Lin Ying rush into the paint, the Knicks players instinctively thought of one sentence:
Yes, Lin Ying is still here!
By the time Lin Ying hit an extra penalty despite interference, the point difference had returned to 20 points!
The Knicks' point-chasing momentum was suddenly curbed!
And this isn't the end.
Lin Ying's score restored the Nets' defensive quality, and Bosh's shot missed the basket after being double-teamed.
Looking back, Lin Ying broke through and forced the Knicks to shrink and then returned the ball to Yi Jianlian on the outside.
Yi Jianlian's three-pointer was taken again.
"Whoa!"
His fourth personal three-pointer tonight!
Emperor Yi: I was once as famous as Emperor Lin!
The point difference is back to 23 points!
Live footage shows Rivers on the sidelines of the Knicks.
Rivers is sitting on the bench at this time, with a tired and helpless expression. Destroy when you are tired.gif!
…
Lin Ying's scoring momentum dropped slightly in the third quarter, scoring only 10 points in a single quarter.
But after the third quarter, the Nets led the Knicks 100 to 75 entering the final quarter!
The Knicks worked hard for one quarter and successfully allowed the Nets to open the point difference to 25 points!
In a situation that no one could have imagined before the game, the two sides actually played a whole quarter of garbage time in the last quarter of the life-and-death battle!
The only thing that can be compared with tonight is the Celtics' bloodbath against the Lakers in G6 in 2008!
At that time, the Celtics already led the Lakers by 29 points at the end of three quarters.
At the end of the game, Yi Jianlian had wonderful scenes of breakthrough dunks.
Knicks fans finally started booing their players on a daily basis.
Being beaten like this by the remnant Nets, I feel sorry for them as Knicks fans!
The on-site director also fully demonstrated his scheming, and finally kept giving close-ups of Rivers on the sidelines.
On social media, Rivers has also been completely sprayed by Knicks fans.
It's better for you to expect Sloan to beat Jordan one day than to expect Knicks fans to show their patience!
A look at the Knicks bench before the game ended.
Wade looked at the court and shook his head helplessly.
He probably didn't understand why it was like this.
It's not that he can't accept defeat, just like he has now accepted that he is no longer the all-powerful Flash.
But losing the game in this way, he really didn't know which link had gone wrong.
James on the side rarely bit his fingernails, but sat upright and looked at Wade with complicated eyes.
There is a trace of guilt in it.gif.
The three giants gathered in New York, and Wade made the biggest sacrifice.
Because in terms of fame, Wade was not much worse than him at the time.
Bosh was wrapped in a towel and had an emotional breakdown.
They gathered in New York in the face of overwhelming public opinion and won the championship in their first season.
I thought that was just the beginning. Who would have thought that now they can't even make it to the finals!
Some are sad and some are happy.
A group of people on the Nets bench were extremely excited.
Butler replaced Claude as the chief towel man, and his butt couldn't sit down at all.
Sloan really should have allowed him to continue playing the entire game. His energy didn't look like he had rested for three quarters.
Delong's eyebrows were dancing with joy and he couldn't stop talking.
Who else would be happier than him at this moment!
Lin Ying took her cell phone and took pictures here and there, and then sent a message to Swift.
Swift has started to get busy and was unable to come to the scene tonight.
After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Sloan.
There were no emotional fluctuations on the old handsome face, but his slightly trembling hands while sitting upright "betrayed" his true inner mood.
15 years!
The last time Sloan led the Jazz to the Finals was 15 years ago!
It was the last year of Jordan's career. The "last shot" fulfilled Jordan's reputation of not playing tiebreakers in the Finals, and completely buried Sloan and his double play in Utah's "grave."
Fifteen years later, Sloan crawled out of the "grave" again and once again came to the familiar and tragic battlefield!
"beep!"
The final whistle blows.
The score on the court was finally settled at 122 to 100.
When the final whistle sounded, the Nets bench was in a state of excitement.
The team members shouted and cheered.
Finals, the Nets are here!
According to the statistics after the game, Lin Ying of the Nets scored 52 points in three quarters, setting a new record for his highest score in a single playoff game!
Yi Jianlian also scored 18 points, 8 rebounds, and made 4 three-pointers.
Butler also had 12 points, 6 rebounds and 2 steals.
Although the statistics are not that dazzling, he did not rest for a minute in the first three quarters, and his flying save was even comparable to Rodman's flying save back then.
For the Knicks, James contributed 27 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, and scored 10 points in the last quarter.
James' classic statistics, but this time he failed to win the game, and in the second quarter he was almost humiliatingly dunked and crotched by Lin Ying.
Post-match press conference.
Sloan took Lin Ying, Yi Jianlian, and Butler to the press conference.
"You know I don't like to praise my players because they get a lot of money."
As soon as the press conference started, before reporters could ask questions, Sloan had already started talking to himself.
"But I still want to say that Lin gave the best performance I have ever seen tonight, and he deserves all the praise."
Sloan's remarks drew a round of applause and whistles from the reporters in the audience.
For Sloan to take the initiative to praise him like this, it shows that Lin Ying is really outstanding.
But a player who scored 52 points in three quarters of the Eastern Conference Finals and led the remnant Nets to defeat the 5-star Knicks is excellent? Great? Yes, he deserves everything.
Knicks press conference after Nets.
Unlike the previous Nets, in addition to Rivers and James, team president Pat Riley also came to the scene.
At the press conference, a New York reporter asked quite directly whether the team would continue to be coached by Rivers next season.
A season that was thought to be destined to win the championship ended up in the Eastern Conference finals, and g6 was bloodbathed again. Someone must take the blame.
Rivers, the overturned king, didn't even have a chance to show off his "stunt skills", so it would be inappropriate not to take the blame.
But unexpectedly, Riley supported Rivers.
"When your opponent scores 52 points in three quarters in the playoffs, everything you do will become in vain. Doug is a championship coach. This is only his first season as coach. We still have full confidence in him."
"Will you come back to coaching?"
The reporter was unwilling to give in and continued to ask.
Considering that the Heat failed to make it to the Eastern Conference Finals that year, and Riley led the team to win the championship in his second year after returning to coach, the reporter's questioning was not without reason.
"No, as we said before, we still have full confidence in Doug and he will still be the team's head coach."
Riley: This potato is so hot that I would be stupid to pick it up!
At the end of this press conference, Knicks fans can be said to be quite desperate.
Because from a lineup perspective, the Knicks basically have no room for reinforcement.
If the coach doesn't make adjustments now, and he will face Sloan and Lin Ying next season, who can guarantee that things won't happen again this year?
Some New York fans have consciously changed their home teams and become Nets fans.
Anyway, I’m still a New York fan!
The Eastern Conference Finals are over, but the Western Conference Finals are not over yet.
One day later, the Mavericks defended their home court and tied the game with the Lakers at 3-3.
The tenacity of the Dallas people is beyond imagination, which also makes the finals matchup remain suspenseful.
Lakers stock or Mavericks stock?
This answer will be finally revealed in two days.
But at this time, the league announced the last batch of awards for the season, Best Defense and Best Team.
After the list was announced, Lin Ying once again became the focus of heated discussions among fans.
Because he was selected to both the All-Defensive First Team and the All-NBA First Team for the second consecutive year!
