NBA: I have 3 but no D, and I still can’t dribble.

Fans of the home Magic team at Amway Arena also frowned at this time, clearly feeling that something was wrong.

Tonight, the Heat obviously focused on O'Neal in the penalty area. The Sharks not only showed no mercy on the offensive end with hooks and dunks, but also faced Howard with flying blocks on the defensive end.

Wade also completed a shocking dunk on a breakthrough. The 1.93-meter-tall guard dunked on the 2.08-meter-high center, definitely booking the top ten goals in advance.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Fei scored 3+1 with a misplaced bukkake shot at Howard. It felt like the main players of the Heat team were obviously teaming up to bully their new No. pick.

"Why did you join forces to bully Dwight? He is still a rookie, and this is only the second game of his rookie season!"

"He was bullied just because he was a rookie. This is a dilemma that most rookies have to face!"

"Dwight is still too flamboyant in front of the media. He doesn't know how to respect Shaquille at all. He deserves to be abused now!"

"You were laughing and joking at the beginning, but now you can't laugh anymore?"

第一节打了7分钟左右，霍华德依然是0分0篮板，外加1次失误和1个犯规。

And O'Neal, who completely overwhelmed Howard on both offense and defense, has quickly scored 8 points, 3 rebounds and 1 block.

"Shh!"

Lin Feiyun stepped to the free throw line calmly and made the extra free throw.

Heat (19): (11) Magic.

Quickly lead to 8 points.

The Magic team attacked, and after Lin Fei came on the field, Wade changed his defense to Francis, which made Francis instantly feel more defensive pressure.

Instead of being reckless, Francis summoned a pick-and-roll screen from Turkoglu in the high post. After encountering a double-team in a misplaced position, he made a decisive cross pass. Turkoglu caught the ball and shot from mid-range.

"Bang!"

The ball was a little off target. O'Neal relied on his richer rebounding experience to stand up against Howard in advance and jump to grab the defensive rebound.

Howard was targeted continuously at the beginning, and because he was young and impatient, he couldn't help but push O'Neal directly in front of him.

"Beep!"

The referee blew his whistle, indicating that Howard was fouled for rebounding. This was the second foul of Warcraft tonight.

O'Neill was pushed and staggered and almost fell, but the huge tonnage still gave him the advantage.

After landing, he turned over and stared at Howard with wide eyes. Howard, who felt guilty, also lowered his head, not daring to look directly into the sharp gaze of the big shark.

"Young No. 1 pick, remember to be more energetic next time you recommend someone. Didn't you have a meal? Do you want me to give you another hot pot set meal?"

The head coach of the Magic team on the sidelines saw that Howard had committed two fouls and was a little impatient, so he did not hesitate and immediately replaced "Warcraft" to calm down and replaced him with substitute center Tony Barty.

The "Warcraft" who sat back on the bench was in a bad mood, pounding his fists on the seat, with nowhere to vent his emotions.

Stan Van Gundy also made personnel adjustments, replacing Haslem with a rough replacement to help O'Neal open up more space on the offensive end.

O'Neal was in full swing tonight. Facing Tony Barty, who was slow and lacked physical strength, he became unstoppable in the low post of the penalty area. It was difficult to limit O'Neal's power when Turkoglu double-teamed him, so he could only Use foul tactics.

In the second half of the first quarter, O'Neal made 3 of 2 shots and 5 of 3 from the free throw line. He also made passes after being double-teamed and assisted on high-post shots.

After the first quarter, O'Neal played for 12 minutes and had efficiently scored 15 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks, completely destroying the Magic's penalty area.

Wade and Lin Fei mainly assisted O'Pang tonight, but they also scored 10 points together after the first quarter.

Heat (30): (21) Magic.

The Magic's scoring in the first quarter was mainly concentrated in the hands of Francis, Grant Hill and Mobley, and everyone inside was wiped out.

The outside defense of Francis and Mobley is better than the Pacers in terms of talent. Not to mention Wade's 31 points in the first game also attracted the attention of the league. The Magic's defense against Wade tonight is also more targeted.

After the start of the second quarter, Howard came on the court. Taking advantage of O'Neal's absence, he quickly showed off his power in the penalty area on both ends of the offense and defense. He blocked a shot on defense and scored 4 points on offense.

However, in his rookie season, "Warcraft"'s personal basket skills were relatively poor. His main scoring methods were fast-break alley-oops and low-post eating. His hit rate on turn-over hook shots was not high.

Seeing that Howard quickly scored 4 points, 2 rebounds and 1 block, with a bright smile on his face again, O'Neal couldn't sit still and stood up and asked Stan Van Gundy to play.

As soon as O'Neal came on, Howard stopped laughing immediately.

After the first half, O'Neal scored a double-double of 70 points, 24 rebounds, 10 assists and 2 blocks on Howard with a terrifying shooting percentage of over 2%.

而新科状元这边却是8投2中4分2篮板，外加2个失误3个犯规。

Wade's breakthrough was limited by the Magic, so he focused more on assisting his teammates, linking up O'Neal and Lin Fei inside and outside.

Heat (53): (42) Magic.

At halftime, they still held a double-digit advantage.

After the start of the third quarter, the Magic continued to double-team and interfere with O'Neal in the penalty area.

This also allowed Lin Fei, Shou Yu and Eddie Jones to get more shooting opportunities after opening up the outside line.

Although Jones and his general three-point shooting percentage are not as good as Lin Fei, they have also reached the league average, basically above 35%.

Wade's three-point shot is the worst among the four. With the Magic guarding the penalty area, Wade can't get in and O'Neal can't get the ball. Lin Fei and others create opportunities.

Stan Van Gundy's response tactic was very successful, allowing Lin Fei to get 6 shots in the third quarter and hit 4 three-pointers.

After three quarters, Lin Fei had made 9 of 7 three-pointers, plus 3 free throws, scoring 24 points.

Eddie Jones also scored 8 points in the third quarter. He also hit a three-pointer and scored 5 points in a single quarter.

At the same time, on the defensive end, Lin Fei also performed very well in defending Mobley, and did not hinder the team's overall defense.

Under the leadership of Francis and Grant Hill, the Magic scored 32 points in the third quarter and played a smooth wave of chasing points.

But the Heat also responded with 29 points in a single quarter and did not let the Magic get too close to the point difference.

In the final quarter, the mentality of the Magic's players became impetuous and their defensive enthusiasm declined. O'Neal took advantage of the situation to dominate the penalty area again, and teamed up with Wade to score 3 points in 10 minutes.

Lin Fei made a steal on the defensive end at a critical moment, and hit another three-pointer from the familiar 45-degree angle on the right side during the fast break.

"Shh!"

The Heat also quickly expanded their lead to more than 15 points.

As the hot-tempered Howard left the game with six fouls, the Magic had no hope of chasing points and had no choice but to surrender in advance.

Heat (103): (92) Magic.

The score was settled, and the Heat defeated the Magic in the away game without any danger, winning two consecutive victories at the beginning of the new season.

奥尼尔全场出战39分钟，攻防两端完爆新科状元德怀特·霍华德，用32分15篮板4助攻3封盖1抢断的全面表现，

Prove that he is still the league's well-deserved No. center.

On the other hand, the opponent Dwight Howard committed six fouls and left the game early in the fourth quarter. He only scored 34 points, 8 rebounds and 5 turnovers in 3 minutes of play.

林飞命中8个三分球，罚球3中3，拿到全队第二高的27分，外加2次抢断和1个篮板。

Eddie Jones 16 points, roughly 7 points and 4 rebounds.

韦德虽然只拿到了12分，但却有7篮板11助攻2抢断2封盖，算的上是一场准三双表现。

The Miami Heat's opening two consecutive victories also left a very deep impression on the fans.

This team does not have an absolute boss and absolute right to take action. Wade scored 31 points in the opening game, and O'Neal dominated the penalty area with 32 points and 15 rebounds in the second game.

According to the opponent's lineup configuration and on-the-spot tactical choices, every main player is willing to sacrifice the ball in the game to make a wedding gift for his teammates.

Such a united Miami Heat and team spirit have shown their winning temperament.

After winning against the Magic, Lin Fei and his teammates moved to Houston, 2000 kilometers away, to face the Houston Rockets with Dayao and Tracy McGrady away.

The Rockets have Yao Yao, and the Heat have Lin Fei and Shou.

This game has also been hyped by the media as a Celestial Derby. At the same time, as two very popular teams, the game will also be broadcast live on the whole meter.

The fans on the Chinese side are naturally even more excited, looking forward to the arrival of this Chinese derby.

Even before the game started, hundreds of millions of Chinese fans were waiting in front of the TV. The popularity of this game was no less than the semi-finals and finals of the Yadian Olympic Games in August.

"The Heat beat the Rockets, we finally waited for this game, the Chinese Derby, Lin Fei, Dayao and Shou really brought glory to our Chinese men's basketball team!"

"Since defeating the United States in the semi-finals of the Olympic Games, our Chinese men's basketball team has become a world-class team. In the latest world basketball rankings, it seems to have been promoted to 9th place!"

"Generally, the new season has also become the main rotation of the Heat. In the first two games, they averaged 15 minutes of playing time. The Tianchao men's basketball team is really getting better and better!"

"Not only did Yao Yao, Lin Fei and General Men's Basketball Team win glory in the world for our Chinese Men's Basketball Team, Zhu Fangyu, Wang Shipeng and Arab League in the new CBA season are also growing rapidly. I believe that when the Imperial Capital Olympics is held in four years, our men's basketball team will win glory in the world." The basketball team will definitely reach its peak and create greater glory!"

"The men's basketball game is so good, but the men's football team is still a piece of shit. It's really shameful that they couldn't make it to the World Cup in 06!"

"Don't compare the men's football team to the men's basketball team? They don't deserve it!"

"The Heat have started the new season with a winning streak. O'Neal, Wade and Lin Fei have a reasonable lineup inside and outside the lineup. In addition, Eddie Jones is also a small forward who averages close to 20+ per game! I feel that beating the Rockets is not a big problem!"

"I still hope that Yao and Mai can quickly produce a chemical reaction, and the Rockets lineup can make further breakthroughs!"

“I just learned that Jeff Van Gundy and Stan Van Gundy are brothers, but these two guys don’t seem to look much alike!”

"After all, McGrady is the scoring leader for two consecutive seasons. I believe that as long as he finds his form, he is capable of scoring 30+ points on any night!"

"The Heat have O'Neal, Wade, and Lin Fei, and the Rockets have Dayao, McGrady, and Uncle Huo. Combined, there are likely to be six All-Stars this year!"

"Juwan Howard is no longer at his peak, and the probability of being selected as an All-Star is too low, but Yao, Mai and the Heat's Big Three basically have a high probability!"

"With hundreds of millions of our Celestial Dynasty fans here, how could Lin Fei and Dayao lose the election? At least they have to be starters, haha!"

"When does the All-Star voting start? I can't wait to vote for Lin Fei and Dayao. Yes, I also need to bring a rough idea!"

"Don't forget last season's All-Stars. It was not only our votes that allowed Dayao to edge out O'Neal and directly become the starting center in the Western Conference!"

"Although O'Neal was a substitute in the Western Conference last season, he won the All-Star MVP. Our big Yao is still far behind!"

"Dayao's progress this season has been obvious. I believe he won't suffer too much in front of Ao Pang!"

Jinping County, Guizhou Province.

In the village committee of a certain mountain village, the only TV set in the village was carried into the yard. More than a hundred people, old and young, gathered around the TV and watched TV programs.

Lin Fei came to the mountain village during the offseason to participate in poverty alleviation public welfare undertakings. In addition to funding the construction of Hope Primary School, he also donated a total of more than 100 TCL TV sets to dozens of nearby villages.

The price of each 21-inch TV is about 500 yuan.

Before that, most of the nearby mountain villages had no television, and there were only three or two in a town.

Moreover, Jinping County during this period did not realize electricity supply to every village. Due to the tight power supply, many villages could only have electricity for a few hours a day.

Under the leadership of the village chief and volunteer teacher Liu Ruoyun, the children and elderly people in the village gathered together today to watch the NBA game between the Heat and the Rockets broadcast live on Tianchao Wuset.

"Look, the guy wearing the red No. 22 jersey is Lin Fei. He is our great benefactor in Jinping. Without him, you kids wouldn't be able to watch TV!"

"This tall man must be Dayao. He is really tall. He and Lin Fei are the pride of our Chinese athletes!"

"Our sports industry in China is getting better and better, and the people's lives will eventually get better!"

"I heard that Yao Yao and Lin Fei can earn four to five million a year playing basketball in the United States. Playing basketball is very profitable!"

Several elderly people in the village were communicating with each other, and the support teacher Liu Ruoyun said with a smile:

"Uncle Sun, that's four to five million U.S. dollars. When combined into our Tianchao coins, it's 4000 million a year!"

"Oh my god, playing basketball makes so much money? Let us children in the mountains have to be trained well since childhood. If we can go to the United States to play like Lin Fei in the future, we will really be proud of our ancestors!"

The children squatted in front of the TV and started to yell:

"Why hasn't the game started yet? Teacher, we want to watch Huan Zhugege for a while first!"

"I want to see Brother Ikkyu and Sheriff Black Cat!"

"Why are these people so dark? Why are there so many fancy patterns on their arms? What are these?"

Back to Houston.

Toyota Center.

At 7pm local time, the auditoriums on all sides were already filled with fans.

This focus battle, which was broadcast live across the United States and anticipated by hundreds of millions of fans in China, officially started at the whistle of referee Joey Crawford.

Rockets players at home wear white jerseys, while Heat players away from home wear red jerseys.

The starting five for the Miami Heat are:

Point guard (pg): Damon Jones,

Shooting guard (sg): Dwayne Wade,

Small forward (sf): Eddie Jones,

Power forward (PF): Udonis Haslem,

Center (c): Shaquille O'Neal.

The starting five for the Houston Rockets are:

Point guard (pg): Tyronn Lue,

Shooting guard (sg): Jim Jackson,

Small forward (sf): Tracy McGrady,

Power forward (sf): Juwan Howard,

Center (c): Dayao.

Although the Rockets lost the opening game of the new season, they quickly adjusted after returning home and defeated the visiting Portland Trail Blazers. Tracy McGrady also scored 29 points in this game, and Dayao scored 21 points and 11 rebounds.

The biggest problem for this Rockets team is that they don't have a suitable point guard. Tyronn Lue's overall performance as a player was lackluster.

Amid the cheers of the fans at the scene, Yao and O'Neal walked into the center circle and prepared to jump the ball.

Stan Van Gundy and Jeff Van Gundy, who are two brothers, also walked to the sideline technical stage at this time and shook hands with each other.

"Brother, please show mercy!"

"Brother, show me some face!"

The betting company gave a handicap of 6.5 points. Even if it is an away game, mainstream media and experts obviously believe that the Heat have a good chance of winning.

O'Neal took the lead in flying the basketball over Yao's head, but Tyronn Lue made an accurate judgment and rushed forward to get the ball before Damon Jones, showing his high golf IQ.

On the Rockets' first attack, Tyronn Lue pushed the ball into the frontcourt and quickly gave it to McGrady, who was asking for the ball outside the three-point line at the top of the key.

McGrady will face off against Eddie Jones tonight, which is an advantage for the Rockets. Rockets head coach Jeff Van Gundy also told McGrady that once the position battle is in place, he can try some open singles.

Facing Eddie Jones with his back at the top of the arc, McGrady has a certain advantage in both height and strength.

Although the official height is 2.03 meters, McGrady's actual height has reached 2.06 meters. Coupled with a wingspan of 2.18 meters, this static talent is already quite invincible.

Instead of summoning Dayao's pick-and-roll, McGrady first sidestepped Eddie Jones twice, and then quickly made a fake move before suddenly accelerating and breaking through in the opposite direction.

"Whoosh!"

Although he has reached the height of a power forward, McGrady's flexibility has not been affected. His first step is quite fast, and he is definitely ranked in the top three levels among guards in the league.

Even though Eddie Jones has always been excellent defensively, he is 33 years old after all and no longer has the defensive ability he had at his peak.

What's more, McGrady's defense against Kobe Bryant, who is now at his peak, is still at odds with each other, so how can he be afraid of Eddie Jones.

McGrady's breakthrough was very sharp. He directly shook off Eddie Jones and strode straight into the penalty area.

Finding a space in the mid-range on the strong side, Tracy McGrady suddenly braked and stopped, leaving Eddie Jones more than a meter away. He collected the ball and took off in a calm, smooth motion.

"Shh!"

McGrady's ball collection point is very low, probably in the middle of his thigh, close to his knee, which makes his ball lift more smooth. In addition, the force exerted by his calf and waist and abdomen is highly coherent.

The take-off height is high, the release point is high, the time in the air is long, and the shot is shot from the highest point of the take-off. The standard two-stage pull-up jumper even has a slight fallback.

All these reasons have created the infinite beauty of McGrady's pull-up jump shot. In terms of shooting beauty alone, even Kobe and Jordan have to be inferior.

McGrady hit a signature pull-up jumper at the beginning, and the Rockets fans at the scene cheered and screamed.

Not to mention that McGrady had completely moved away from Eddie Jones when the ball was released. Even if he jumped directly towards the opponent, Eddie Jones could not interfere.

The 25-year-old McGrady has reached the pinnacle of his career. Although he entered the league five seasons earlier than Yao, he is only one year older than Yao.

If it weren't for congenital scoliosis and numerous injuries, McGrady's career would have reached its peak with the Rockets.

Lin Fei, who was sitting on the bench of the Heat, observed McGrady's jump shot from a close distance and was filled with admiration.

McGrady's pull-up shot relies too much on physical talent. This two-stage jump shot is very different from Lin Fei's one-stage jump shot.

Lin Fei's one-step shooting allows him to have a faster release speed and a more balanced shooting point, but it is far inferior to McGrady's pull-up in terms of release height and difficulty.

99% of Lin Fei's shots in games and training are between one-stage and 1.5-stage. This almost perfectly matches the shooting of the Splash Brothers, mainly because of his shooting speed.

Moreover, Lin Fei's physical fitness is also at an average level, which is not enough for him to complete difficult two-stage shots, especially Kobe's fadeaway and McGrady's pull-up.

Before the rise of the Splash Brothers in the NBA, the mainstream shooting movements of guards were all two-stage. Jordan, Kobe, McGrady, and Ray Allen were all like this.

With the birth of Lin Fei in this parallel world, various basketball experts and fans who love to play have also begun to pay attention to and study one-step shooting.

In particular, Lin Fei's terrifying three-point shooting rate made the fans start to think, is the one-stage shooting really worth practicing than the two-stage shooting?

Tony Allen, who was sitting beside Lin Fei, humbly asked Lin Fei for advice like a little fanboy:

"Lin, I feel that there is a big gap between Tracy's and your shooting movements. His shooting is too difficult, and his shooting percentage is far lower than yours. Isn't this a bit thankless?"

Although Tony Allen has been obsessed with defense since college, offense is also an essential ability for every player, so Tony Allen will always ask Lin Fei for shooting skills.

"Tony, the reason why Tracy developed this kind of difficult pull-up is because he is always the team's first choice on the offensive end, and he faces strict defense!"

"This requires developing a shooting movement that can be successfully shot under strict defense. This is very necessary during attacks and critical moments!"

"As for me, because my role is that of the team's No. 3 player, most of my shots are misplaced to seize opportunities after covering the pick-and-roll or directly open shots. The speed of the shot is the most important!"

After listening to Lin Fei's analysis, Tony Allen understood instantly and nodded: "Lin, what you said makes so much sense, so it's best for me to practice one-step shooting with you!"

Lin Fei laughed and said: "There is no intrinsic quality between one-stage and two-stage shooting. It completely varies from person to person. You need to see which shooting method is more suitable for your physical fitness!"

"I can only shoot well for one stage now. If I have enough physical fitness, I naturally hope that I can also develop a pull-up shot like McGrady, or a fade-away shot like Kobe!"

Tony Allen stared at Lin Fei with the eyes of a monster, and praised repeatedly:

"Lin, your current three-point shooting after catching the ball is terrifying enough, and all of your long-range three-pointers are so accurate,"

"If you develop McGrady's pull-up and Kobe's fade-away, wouldn't you be instantly invincible? You can't defend yourself no matter how hard you shoot?"

Seeing Tony Allen's exaggerated expression, Lin Fei smiled and said, "I'm just thinking about it. How could it be so easy to practice Kobe's back and McGrady's pull?"

"If such a day comes, then I should be able to become the boss of a team, right? Haha, the boss who can't dribble!"

Tony Allen quickly echoed:

"That's for sure. You hit at least 10 three-pointers in every game. So what if you can't dribble? The management and coaching staff will definitely find you the best point guard partner, and the team will completely plan their tactics around you. !”

Lin Fei suddenly thought that his three-point attribute had always been 99 points, and he had not yet had time to increase it to the full value of 100 points.

According to the system's explanation, basketball attributes that have reached 99 points can be upgraded to the full value of 100 points at any time through free attributes, but a lot of free attribute points are needed.

Lin Fei has always been very satisfied with his current three-point ability value.

If we really want to increase the points from 99 to 100, I wonder if there will be any new surprises or unlock new three-point skills?

On the court, the game continued.

The Heat attacked, Wade received a pass from Damon Jones in the frontcourt, and faced Jim Jackson's defense.

Jim Jackson and O'Neal were also rookies in 1992, and he was also the No. 4 pick in the first round. At the age of 34, he is already an out-and-out veteran of the league.

At his peak, Jim Jackson averaged 18.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 5.2 assists per game. He also reached the quasi-All-Star level, with rich offensive methods and a shooting range covering the entire three-point area.

But Jim Jackson is always easy to get along with his teammates because of his personal personality problems, which also makes him the number one homeless man in the league. The Rockets are currently his 10th team in the league.

Last season, Jim Jackson had a good relationship with Francis and Yao in the Rockets, but with the arrival of McGrady, there was also a conflict between the two because of the possession of the ball.

This is also one of the main contradictions at the beginning of the Rockets' new season. The management is already trying to trade away Jim Jackson.

Faced with Jim Jackson's unrestrained shooting, Wade did not choose to act recklessly. Instead, he called O'Neal's up screen, mismatched Yao, and beat the opponent with his speed.

"Whoosh!"

Dayao also changed his defense very smartly and retreated directly to the center of the penalty area without choosing to defend.

O'Neal's move attracted Dayao's defensive attention, and Wade walked to the right and accelerated into the penalty area, soared into the air to attract Dayao's defense, and passed the ball from his armpit to O'Neal on the left.

"Boom!"

O'Neal caught the ball and jumped up, directly hitting a shark dunk.

Dayao alone is hard to beat with four hands, and Jim Jackson is obviously not active enough in the process of defending the pick-and-roll this time, and Juwan Howard should have defended it.

Jeff Van Gundy, who was standing on the sidelines, suddenly became angry and yelled at the Rockets players on the court.

Heat (2): (2) Rockets.

Transition of possession.

This time, McGrady and Dayao also played a pick-and-roll at a high position. After the misalignment, McGrady accelerated the breakthrough with the ball, and also passed the slow-footed Shark with a stride.

Haslem made up the defense in time, but McGrady saw the right opportunity. He jumped sideways and released the basket. The basketball flew over Haslem's head and hit the net.

"Shh!"

McGrady was in pretty good shape tonight at the start of the game, hitting all two shots and scoring 4 points in a row.

Back on the defensive end, Wade made a mistake in one of his breakthrough passes, but McGrady successfully predicted it, struck out with his long arm, and directly completed the steal.

"Snapped!"

The Rockets countered the fast break, McGrady took the ball to kill the frontcourt, and faced Wade's quick return to defend the corner and overtake,

McGrady stopped suddenly just outside the three-point line at the top of the arc. His calves and waist and abdomen instantly exerted force, and he chased after him and shot a three-pointer decisively.

"Shh!"

and also.

Heat (2): (7) Rockets.

McGrady scored 2 points in the first 7 minutes, completely igniting the enthusiasm of the home fans at Toyota Arena.

This pull-up three-pointer was indeed picturesque, and Lin Fei, who was sitting on the sidelines, seemed to recall the magical scene of Tracy McGrady at 35 seconds and 13 minutes in the original world.

After thinking about it, the 35 seconds and 13 minutes in McGrady's original world seemed to be in December 2004.

If there is still 35 seconds and 13 minutes to happen in this parallel world, it should be next month.

Can McGrady’s battle to become a god continue in this parallel world?

The sleepy-eyed McGrady tilted his head with a smile on his face while returning to defense, and pointed towards Lin Fei sitting on the Heat bench.

"Lin, I already have a three-pointer!"

Lin Fei also smiled. McGrady, who is not injured, is really handsome in playing basketball.

The white horse and the spear are heroic.

The Heat's special plane arrived in Houston yesterday afternoon. After staying at the hotel, Lin Fei trained for another two hours, and in the evening he went to Dayao's home with him as a guest.

Unlike Lin Fei who lives in a big villa, although Dayao is the No. 50 pick in the NBA, he has only bought a small villa in Houston for US$.

In the previous two seasons, Dayao was renting a house.

Although he was the No. 400 pick, the four-year rookie contract Dayao signed with the Rockets had an average annual salary of just over $ million.

Moreover, after taking into account various taxes and agent commissions, the Chinese Sharks Club and the Basketball Association had to take a large part of it, leaving Dayao with less than 80 US dollars.

Lin Fei has never played in the CBA, so his salary does not need to be paid to the Basketball Association, and his annual salary for the new season has already exceeded Dayao.

It's basically even more different. After all, he has a rich wife to help him, and Dayao and Ye Li are still in love.

It just so happened that Maddie was there last night, so the four of them had dinner together and chatted very well with each other.

Although the relationship between Tracy McGrady and Dayao may not have been good in the later stages of their careers, now is the honeymoon period of their cooperation, and they still take good care of each other.

As for Wade and O'Neal, they naturally went to nightclubs in Houston with several other Heat teammates to have fun.

That night on the open-air basketball court of Dayao Villa, Lin Fei and Tracy McGrady also competed in fixed-point three-pointers.

As a result, McGrady lost badly.

"Lin, although I have lost now, in tomorrow's game, I will definitely hit more three-pointers than you and lead the team to victory!"

Lin Fei smiled and said: "Tracy, in tomorrow's game, although I'm not sure I can hit more three-pointers than you, I will definitely hit a higher percentage than you!"

McGrady: "..."

These words are absolutely heartbreaking!

Perhaps it was Lin Fei's words last night that completely aroused McGrady's determination to win tonight's game.

The 3 points and 7 steal in all 1 shots in the opening game fully demonstrated the demeanor of the two-time scoring champion.

Heat offense,

This time, O'Neal found a favorable position under the basket, received Wade's pass, turned over Yao's hook, and the basketball entered the net steadily.

"Shh!"

"Yao, is your defense still so bad? I'm afraid you won't be able to guard me until I'm 40 years old!"

Faced with O'Neal's ridicule, Dayao did not speak. Instead, he responded quickly after coming to the offensive end. He also hit a mid-range back-up shot.

"Shh!"

"Shaquille, your current defense is not much better. I doubt you can continue to play in the NBA until the age of 40!"

Dayao's response was also very humorous. After a round of playoff contests last season, coupled with the cooperation in the All-Stars, the relationship between O'Neal and Dayao is still very good.

The Heat attack.

Wade continued to pass the ball to O'Neal in the low post. This time Yao defended well. After all, he had the absolute advantage of height. O'Neal did not force the ball and gave the ball back to Wade on the outside.

After Wade broke through, he made an emergency stop for a half-shot shot, but the basketball missed.

"Bang!"

Dayao protected the defensive rebound and gave the ball to Tyronn Lue on the point guard.

After McGrady came to the frontcourt, he caught the ball and faced Eddie Jones. After three threats from the top of the arc, he pulled up and shot again, facing the opponent with another three-pointer.

But this time McGrady shot too confidently, and the ball was a little too strong, hitting the back edge of the basket and popping up high.

"Bang!"

The offensive rebound was just picked up by Jim Jackson. The latter borrowed Dayao as a screen and slipped to the baseline to pick the basket.

"Shh!"

Heat (4): (9) Rockets.

In the first 3 minutes, the Heat's offensive performance was not smooth. Stan Van Gundy also called a long timeout, preparing to replace Lin Fei in advance.

In the Heat's current team lineup, Damon Jones is actually just a false starter. Most of the time, he takes the ball through the frontcourt and hands it to Wade, and then squats in the corner to open up space.

Lin Fei is the Heat's main backcourt partner with Wade.

Seeing Lin Fei getting up and about to go on the court, the Rockets fans in the Toyota Center actually burst into some sparse cheers and whispered among themselves.

Speaking of Lin Fei's current fame, he is not only a household name in China, but also has a high reputation among the star-studded NBA and American fans.

After all, Lin Fei not only scored a 1.3-second buzzer-beater in last season's finals, but also scored a buzzer-beating three-pointer to beat the American Dream Six in the Olympics in August.

Although it was Ginobili's Argentina who finally won the championship in the Olympics, Lin Fei's reputation in the Olympics is no less than that of Ginobili.

In the original world, Ginobili defeated the United States in the semi-finals of the Yadian Olympic Games and defeated Italy in the final to win the championship. The Olympic Organizing Committee also awarded Ginobili an MVP trophy as an exception.

This is also the only MVP trophy in the entire history of Olympic men's basketball.

But in today's parallel world, the American Dream Six was eliminated by the China Men's Basketball Team in the semifinals. Although Agendin also won the championship in the end, his influence and topic were much smaller.

Therefore, precisely because of Lin Fei's butterfly effect, Ginobili did not win the men's basketball MVP trophy on this year's Olympic men's basketball podium.

On the contrary, Lin Fei, who hit the buzzer-beating three-pointer to beat the American team, has a higher popularity and influence among American and Chinese fans than Ginobili.

The historical status of a basketball player does require the accumulation of honors and achievements.

But his huge influence among the fan base is often more related to the characteristics of his playing style and exciting classic moments.

Just like McGrady's 35 seconds and 13 minutes, the influence in the hearts of the group is enough to surpass the entire career efforts of most NBA players.

A moment is eternity!

Lin Fei's current status is still very low both in the NBA and in the world basketball world, but his few classic kills in the NBA Finals and the Olympics,

But it has penetrated into the hearts of countless fans and is regarded as a classic of basketball.

Perhaps taking into account the special significance of tonight's Chinese Derby, Stan Van Gundy also followed suit.

While replacing Lin Fei, he also replaced Haslem, allowing the three major Chinese players to gather on the court in advance.

After playing only three minutes, he was roughly replaced. This made Haslem somewhat unhappy, and he was even more worried that his starting power forward position would not be retained.

After all, this season has indeed made a lot of progress. As an old teammate, Haslem sees it in his eyes, and his ability to open up space on the offensive end is incomparable to Haslem.

In the fifth live broadcast room of Tianchao.

Seeing Lin Fei and Lin Fei come on the bench at about the same time after returning from the timeout, Director Zhang's commentary became more excited and high-pitched:

"Lin Feihe came on the court ahead of schedule. Three Chinese NBA players competed on the same stage. This moment is destined to become a classic. Our Chinese men's basketball team has truly risen!"

On the court, the Heat organized their offense.

Wade held the ball and first set up a pick-and-roll with O'Neal in the high post to break through and attract the Rockets' defensive attention.

At the same time, Lin Feihe also quickly made an off-ball screen near the 45-degree three-point line on the right.

"Whoosh!"

Lin Fei took advantage of the cover to get rid of the pursuing Jim Jackson, and quickly rushed toward the right at a 0-degree angle.

Juwan Howard, who was facing roughly the same position, changed defense a step too late. Wade, who was breaking through, had already spotted the opportunity and quickly gave the ball to Lin Fei with a flick of his wrist.

Lin Fei was at a 0-degree angle on the right, the sweet spot where he had never missed a shot. He caught the ball and took off, facing Uncle Huo who was unable to defend in time, he just shot without saying a word.

"Shh!"

As soon as Lin Fei came on the court, the Heat's outside firepower quickly became fierce, causing the Rockets' defense to lose sight of one thing.

In the next offensive round, Lin Fei chose to use O'Neal as a screen at the top of the arc, misaligned and faced Dayao who was changing defense.

As a teammate of the national team, Lin Fei is very familiar with Dayao's defensive characteristics.

Even though Yao's defense change was quite timely this time, his footwork disadvantage still exists.

Lin Fei first made an emergency stop and took a quick step back. He instantly retreated two meters away from Dayao, received the pass from Wade, and then Lightning made another shot.

Although Dayao's pace was slow, his height was too dominant after all, and his long arms rushed forward quickly, also covering Lin Fei's shooting space.

When Lin Fei stepped back to catch the ball and jumped to shoot, his brain made a quick judgment and directly made a huge backwards motion, and quickly threw the ball out in a very difficult posture.

"Shh!"

The moment the basketball hit the net, Lin Fei fell to the court floor.

Dayao stared at Lin Fei who fell on the ground with wide eyes, completely confused.

Is this okay for him?

After all, Dayao had spent two months with Lin Fei day and night in the national team, and he had a very clear understanding of his three-point shooting in games and training.

Even though Lin Fei has a high shooting percentage, fast release speed, and many incredible long-range three-pointers,

But this is the first time Dayao has seen such a situation where he directly leans back and shoots after receiving the ball.

I was originally confident that I could block Lin Fei's shot this time, but I didn't expect that I would be the clown in the end.

Could it be that this guy has unlocked new skills?

The Toyota Arena was also boiling at this moment, and fans in the auditoriums on all sides were talking one after another.

"omg, this backward shot is too scary, isn't it?"

"What on earth did I see? A super long fadeaway shot nearly 9 meters away from the basket. How did this guy do it?"

"How can Lin, who catches the ball and shoots a fadeaway, have such a fast release speed? This is unscientific!"

In front of the courtside commentary desk, ESPN's on-site commentator Mike Breen slapped the table and exclaimed. He swore he had never seen such a strange fadeaway three-pointer.

"Lin's fadeaway three-pointer after receiving the ball is completely different from Kobe Jordan's fadeaway jumper. He is still a complete one-step shot!"

"One-step fadeaway jumper, my God, how on earth does this guy achieve a balanced effort?"

Wade was the first to rush up and pull Lin Fei up, puffing out his cheeks and smiling:

"Lin, I got 30+ in the opening game, and Shaquille got 30+ in the last game. It's your turn tonight to have unlimited fire rights!"

Lin Fei raised his eyebrows naturally, looking at the basket with a sword-like gaze. Invisible pretense is the most deadly:

"Give me unlimited fire rights? Then I'm afraid it won't just be 30+!"
