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

Although Jason Terry, who was used as a scapegoat in last season's finals due to racially insensitive remarks and Lin Fei's conflict, almost ended his NBA career prematurely.

But after repairing and revitalizing in the offseason, Jason Terry returned to the court with a new attitude and became one of the best helpers for the Cleveland Cavaliers and LeBron James.

Although he spent most of his time on the bench, Jason Terry played more than 40 games with the Cavaliers in the new season and was still able to steadily output about 17 points per game.

Moreover, Terry averaged more than 2 three-pointers per game, and his three-point shooting rate exceeded 43%.

As the team's best sixth man, Terry averaged 17 points per game, second only to LeBron James and ahead of Larry Hughes and Big Z.

As a traditional defensive expert, Mike Brown has been very effective in training the Cavaliers on the defensive end in the past two seasons. The team has also accumulated Larry Hughes, Drew Gooden, Big Z and Valle. An elite inside and outside defender like Joe.

But when it comes to the offensive end, the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 1.0 era really had nothing new to say. Both the initiation and completion of tactics had to go through James' hands.

Mike Brown has always emphasized traditional tactics, pressing the rhythm, slowing down, and grinding the position. Even though Lin Fei's sudden emergence ushered in the small ball era ahead of schedule, the stubborn Brown still did not change.

However, the arrival of Jason Terry has made the Cavaliers' bench lineup more dynamic. At the same time, Terry's passionate play style and bayonet attributes in counterattack fast breaks,

Also infected Mike Brown and LeBron James.

As a time traveler, Lin Fei knows better than anyone else that a player like Jason Terry is actually the most suitable to follow an organizational small forward like James.

Just like Maurice Williams, who later joined the Cavaliers, you don't need to have excellent organizational skills, because James will organize it. What is needed is your ability to open up space, a certain setter ability, and the ability to move without the ball. Ability and the ability to take over at any time.

Xiao Mo, who hugged James' thigh tightly in his previous life, was able to become an All-Star in his first season with the Cavaliers. Now Jason Terry naturally has the same ability.

It's a pity that Mike Brown is too rigid and always defines Terry as the team's sixth man.

Because Jason Terry's weakness is defense after all, and Mike Brown always prefers to hoard defensive players around James, so much so that he ignores offense.

In the original world, the reason why the Cavaliers in the 1.0 era were never able to win the championship was that they only reached the finals once in the 06-07 season, which was full of bonuses, and were swept by the Spurs.

The main reason is that James does not have enough offensive helpers around him. Once the penalty area is blocked, James' breakthrough is restricted or his touch is not good, and the Cavaliers have no one who can stand up and carry the offensive banner.

Players such as Hughes, Mo, Gooden, Big Z, Ben, and the Sharks are all like this, and this situation is even more obvious in the playoffs.

On the court, the Cavaliers' first few offenses were really grinding, completely suppressing the fast pace that the Knicks and Lin Fei liked.

However, the Cavaliers' offensive efficiency at the beginning was still very good. First, James faced the young Ariza at the top of the arc, signaled his teammates to open up space, and used Big Z's pick-and-roll.

Seeing that the Knicks did not switch defense, they directly lowered their center of gravity to start the breakthrough, pushed Ariza to attack the penalty area, jumped into the air in front of the defense, and made a zombie rebound shot while his body was falling.

"Shh!"

Then James made another mechanical dribbling operation on the offensive end. During the breakthrough, he faced Lin Fei's timely defense, turned over and passed the ball to Larry Hughes on the outside.

Hughes then handed over to Jason Terry who was running without the ball, and the latter raised his hand and hit a three-pointer.

"Shh!"

Marbury's defense is not very good to begin with, and it is even more difficult for him to chase Jason Terry without the ball.

In fact, for the vast majority of perimeter defenders, it is always more difficult to defend someone without the ball than to defend someone with the ball, and requires greater energy and patience.

Terry, who hit a three-pointer right away, kept chattering at Marbury while retreating. Even though he was beaten by Lin Fei, he was always the wrong person. Whether on the court or in the locker room, he was always this annoying chatterbox.

"Stephen, it should be a good time to be Lin's dog. I heard that you have been selected as an All-Star substitute in the Eastern Conference, so it seems that you are the one I want to beat tonight!"

Terry had no respect at all for Marbury, a team cancer, and was even more disgusted by his behavior of kneeling and licking Lin Fei in the team.

Although he dared to criticize Marbury like this, Jason Terry did not dare to compete with Lin Fei head-on.

No matter how arrogant and arrogant he is, Terry is still a measured and self-aware person. Whether on or off the field, he knows that there is always a huge gap between himself and Lin Fei.

But Marbury has the thighs of Lin Fei, and Terry now has the thighs of James. If he joins forces with the proud little emperor, can he just have the skills to defeat the Knicks who are in a mess?

Faced with Terry's trash talk, Marbury was a little more calm:

"Jason, a piece of trash like you will never get into the All-Star Game once in your life! Because you don't deserve it!"

Marbury's response directly poked Terry's sensitive nerves. As the top All-Star legacy in the history of the league, Jason Terry did have the ability to make the All-Stars, but it was a pity that he was not destined to do so.

Although he is hugging James' thigh tightly now, Terry obviously does not have the same luck as Xiao Mo, because his reputation among fans at home and abroad is already notorious.

Many Knicks fans in Madison Square Garden tonight also booed and jeered after Jason Terry hit a three-pointer.

The Knicks' offense quickly responded. Lin Fei held the ball directly outside the three-point line at the top of the arc, facing Larry Hughes' personal defense, and signaled his teammates to open up space.

In the Knicks' first attack, Lin Fei tried a double step-back three-pointer against Hughes, but failed to hit it.

Mike Brown's research on defense can be said to be conscientious, and he also made major arrangements for the strategy of defending Lin Fei tonight.

In addition to Larry Hughes' personal defense, James also chose to leave Trevor Ariza in the bottom corner and was responsible for hovering near the free throw line at the top of the arc.

On the one hand, it is to restrict Lin Fei from breaking through the first layer of protection of Larry Hughes with the ball, and directly chooses to make a pull-up jump shot from the top of the three-point line, or break into the penalty area for a layup.

On the other hand, he is sitting in the central zone, allowing four teammates to spread out respectively. Through James' personal mobility and flexibility, he can deal with complex screen pick-and-rolls at any time, and cut off Lin Fei's passing intentions.

Lin Fei naturally saw through the Cavaliers' defensive arrangement. As early as the away game against the Cavaliers in November, he suffered a loss in this aspect. In addition, his outside touch was not very good, and he finally lost the game.

But now Lin Fei in February is no longer the Lin Fei in November last year.

"Whoosh!"

Facing the personal interference of Larry Hughes who was unable to defend his shot, Lin Fei easily shook off his opponent with a change of direction and went directly to the three-point line at the top of the arc.

Seeing LeBron James rushing up in an instant, Lin Fei took advantage of the situation and made a realistic bow to Buddha, once again shaking James' defensive focus.

"Whoosh!"

Another change of direction breakthrough to get rid of James. At this time, Eddie Curry had already moved to the axis area according to tactics, and at the same time brought out the big Z's defensive attention.

Lin Fei took advantage of the screen and went straight to the basket. Facing Drew Gooden, who was coming up from a diagonal stab, he made a coquettish little lever after taking off, avoiding Gooden's block, and easily sent the ball into the basket.

"Shh!"

"Beep!"

The referee's whistle then sounded, and Drew Gooden's assist obviously illegally interfered with Lin Fei's layup.

2+1.

Knicks (2): (5) Cavaliers.

"A beautiful breakthrough. Lin passed Larry and LeBron in a row, and then faced Drew Gooden's block and pull-up layup at the basket. This was a pure 1-on-3 goal!"

"Have you noticed recently? Lin's layups are becoming more and more powerful. It feels like he can contribute several top ten breakthrough layups in every game!"

"It's true. At the beginning of the season, Lin's layups were still relatively stiff. They were more dunks in fast breaks and steal towers with no one cutting. But it's different now. He's become more proficient in various pull-ups and throws. Mizongbu also has a bit of Dwayne Wade’s charm!”

In front of the commentary desk on the sidelines, Charles Barkley and Kenny Smith were also praising Lin Fei's pull-up layup after passing two people.

"Lin's layups are indeed getting better and better. I seem to have a hunch that his breakthrough level will soon reach the peak level of Wade and Iverson!"

"Single attributes are gradually soaring. This is indeed a magical thing. If neither Larry nor LeBron can limit Lin's breakthrough from beyond the three-point line into the penalty area, then tonight the Cavaliers want a double play on the road. The Knicks have become almost impossible!"

"Kenny, I think you have to pay attention to the fact that the Knicks have never been beaten twice by any team this season, and I believe tonight will be no exception!"

On the court, while Lin Fei was walking to the free throw line,

James also got close to Larry Hughes to discuss Lin Fei's defense. It was obvious that both of them were responsible for the negligence just now.

And Cavaliers coach Mike Brown on the sidelines also used secret signals to remind Drew Gooden that he must become tough on the defensive end.

Strictly coached Mike Brown will not allow this situation to happen repeatedly when he fails to prevent the opponent's layup and pays for a foul.

"Shh!"

Lin Fei easily hit the extra penalty and scored 3 points successfully.

In fact, as fans and commentators expected, Lin Fei's layup attributes this season are accumulating free attribute points with the progress of the regular season and training.

Rapidly promoted to a new stage.

From 82 points at the beginning of the new season, Lin Fei's layup attributes have now increased to 91 points.

It can be said that he has basically reached the first-class breakthrough level in the league. On some good nights, he can completely evolve to the top breakthrough level.

Looking back, James continued to hold the ball at the top of the arc, and Lin Fei also came up to push Ariza away, facing the little emperor's attack head-on.

Similar to his old friend Wade, who is sharp in defensive breakthroughs, Lin Fei tries to keep a certain distance from James and mainly defends his breakthroughs.

Even though Lin Fei is the top perimeter defender in the league today, it is impossible to completely restrict top superstars like James and Wade. There must be some trade-offs.

Compared with Wade during this period, although James and Wade lacked breakthrough skills and lackluster dribbling, they had more terrifying core strength and even surpassed them in explosive power.

Since the 05-06 season, James has gradually developed a mid-range pull-up jump shot, with a shooting rate of over 40%.

This began to prevent James from blindly diving into the opponent's basket trap during the breakthrough process. Instead, he could grasp the timing and choose a mid-range emergency stop shot after the breakthrough was blocked.

"Bang!"

However, under the interference of Lin Fei's quick sliding step, James's emergency stop jumper ended in a blacksmith.

Big Z and James under the basket had a clear understanding. They turned over to get rid of Eddie Curry's top defense and jumped up to grab the offensive rebound.

Facing interference from Eddie Curry, he made a light and steady half-shot fadeaway jumper, and the basketball went hollow into the net.

"Shh!"

Eddie Curry was so angry after being creampied in the face that he had nowhere to vent his energy. Facing such a white center with a flexible body and a soft touch, he had a really crazy mentality.

"You damn thing don't know your height and wingspan? Do you still need to play a fadeaway jumper in front of me?"

Faced with Eddy Curry's trash talk, Big Z looked calm and showed an expression of not caring about the fool. He turned around and trotted back to the defense.

Ilgauskas was 31 years old during this period. Although he did not have the peak form when he was selected as an All-Star, he was still the inside pillar of the Cavaliers on both offense and defense, averaging 12 points and 8 rebounds per game.

Although it is far inferior to Carlos Boozer who left Salt Lake City, at least everyone listens to James. This is a required course for the Cavaliers management to select role players.

Lin Fei saw Eddie Curry's depression, came to the offensive end, feinted with the ball, and made an accurate lob at the top of the key to Eddie Curry, who was well positioned under the basket.

Eddie Curry relied on his strength to push Big Z behind him. Although his back-up and small steps were not as good as Yao's, he was much better than Howard.

After some feints, he did not completely get rid of Big Z, but Eddie Curry used his greater tonnage to push away the defender in one step. He jumped up like a beast, grabbed the ball with one hand from the outside and smashed it into the basket. basket.

"Boom!"

Eddie Curry, holding the basket with both hands, roared loudly, completely overwhelming Big Z in terms of momentum and passion.

"Old guy, I was selected as an All-Star. Why, are you envious? You should be proud that you are facing the All-Star bench players in the Eastern Conference!"

Facing Eddy Curry's arrogance and exaggerated expression, Big Z's mouth twitched inexplicably twice, thinking to himself, isn't he just a substitute for the Eastern Conference All-Stars? I've already made it twice, right?

Looking back, James continued to hold the ball at the top of the arc, summoning Jason Terry's pick-and-roll at the 1st position, trying to misplace Marbury and directly crush the breakthrough.

However, Lin Fei's speed around the defense was very fast. After all, Jason Terry was a small man, so the pick-and-roll effect was not used at all.

Facing Lin Fei, who quickly bypassed the defense, James no longer chose to fight. With sharp eyes, he directly relied on his strength advantage to crush Lin Fei into the penalty area.

Isn't it just a double team for two consecutive years? What he was torturing tonight was the double team.

They are both from the 03 Platinum Generation. Why can you Lin Fei and Wade be selected into the top 60, but not his little emperor? Why?

Full of anger and dissatisfaction, James transformed into a Leopard 2 main battle tank and charged towards the basket at full speed, completely ignoring Lin Fei's insufficient tonnage obstacle.

Although Lin Fei's bench press strength has increased to 180 kilograms, there is still a significant gap compared with the talented James.

Instead of choosing a hard fight, Lin Fei took advantage of the situation to resist and retreat at the same time. He politely offered some resistance, but in fact he took the initiative to give up the road to the basket.

At the same time, Lin Fei's long arms are always interfering with James' ball protection, causing chemical interference to his breakthrough.

Seeing that James was in the tiger's mouth, Ariza on the flank quickly rushed up to double-team.

Seeing James arrogantly push away Ariza, he suddenly stopped and jumped under the basket to face the retreating Lin Fei, obviously wanting to directly give Lin Fei a head-on dunk.

Lin Fei, who had been prepared for a long time, flashed his eyes, and his long scalpel-like arms were unsheathed like a heavenly sword.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, Lin Fei's cut of the ball was as fast as lightning. The moment the basketball tightly grasped in James' hands was exposed, Lin Fei cut the ball directly to the ground.

While James was posing in the air, Lin Fei stepped forward with sharp eyes, picked up the basketball that bounced off the ground with his big hand, and quickly rushed forward past James.

"omg, steal, Lin completed a wonderful steal against James. This steal came too suddenly!"

Amidst the shouts of the commentator, Lin Fei quickly rushed into the frontcourt with the ball. During the move, he made an in+out change and ruthlessly shook off Larry Hughes, who was coming up to defend him. He accelerated and dribbled the ball non-stop.

Ariza and Marbury jumped down quickly on the left and right sides of Lin Fei. James, who reacted after landing, turned over in confusion and chased after Lin Fei, but he was already left three meters away by Lin Fei.

Seeing Lin Fei passing James and Larry Hughes in succession, Jason Terry on the left outside line gritted his teeth, eyes burning with flames, stepped on the accelerator and quickly chased Lin Fei.

Lin Fei's steal and fast break this time was overwhelming, directly attracting the pursuit of the Cavaliers' James, Hughes and Terry, leaving Marbury and Ariza, who followed quickly, almost completely unmarked. status.

Lin Fei, who dribbled the ball quickly across the center line, saw Terry, who quickly overtook the car and rushed to the front, and Hughes and James, who were catching up at full speed beside and behind him.

It was as if he was caught on three sides.

His eyes glanced at Marbury who was following up from the left sideline. Lin Fei made a confusing pass without looking at anyone. The ball flew past the side of Hughes's face and landed accurately on Marbury five meters away. in hand.

"Whoosh!"

The moment the ball was passed, Lin Fei also quickly stopped to overtake. He made a cross screen with Ariza on the right, and went straight into the bottom corner of the right three-point line.

Marbury, who received the ball from the left, saw the basket was flat. Naturally, without any hesitation, he dribbled directly into the three-point line, slashed into the penalty area, and prepared for a flying dunk.

The old horse seems to be rejuvenated in the new season, and he feels a little uncomfortable if he doesn't dunk for three days.

Seeing that Marbury was about to get to the basket for a dunk, Lin Fei, who was diagonally crossing from the right, was chased and intercepted by Terry and Hughes.

James, who was catching up with Lin Fei in stride, ignored Lin Fei and accelerated directly into the penalty area, chasing after Marbury, preparing to send a nail-biting block.

The nail-board block in quick return to defense is LeBron James's specialty. Even in the 1.0 Cavaliers era, James often contributed this kind of blood-curdling nail-board block.

Marbury, who entered the penalty area with a diagonal stab, watched James quickly pursue the defense, his eyes swept across the frontcourt, took a step, jumped up, and directly changed the dunk to a pull-up layup, completely disrupting James's pursuit of the shot.

"Whoosh!"

Marbury's pull-up layup successfully avoided James' chasing shot. However, the moment before he threw the basketball to the basket, he flicked his wrist and faked a pass directly from behind James to the right baseline.

At this time, Lin Fei quickly crossed in from outside the right three-point line, broke through the defense lines of Terry and Hughes, received Marbury's difficult pass, and stepped into the penalty area.

Facing James who suddenly turned around under the basket, he charged up his ankles and jumped up, maximizing his jumping ability.

The moment Lin Fei's crotch was almost parallel to James' shoulder, his entire abdomen was pressed hard on James' face, who had no time to jump up.

He raised his legs, and across the little emperor who was caught off guard, he raised the basketball in his right hand above his head, with his full strength gauge, and slammed it down towards the basket one meter away.

"Boom!"

Amidst the loud noise, the entire Madison Square Garden seemed to fall into silence at this moment.

What followed was an overwhelming cheer and scream.

"omg, oh my God, what on earth did I see? Lin...Lin just dunked on LeBron James!"
