After Oakley and Walker both left the field, the two people who could stop Lin Long the most disappeared from the game. Therefore, Lin Long continued his performance in the second half of the second quarter!
After making 7-of-7 shots in the first quarter, Lin Long made 4-of-4 shots in the second quarter. He made 11-of-11 shots in the first half and scored 26 points and 7 rebounded!
The Celtics also maintained a seven-point lead with a score of 55:48.
In the second half of the game, because Oakley was sent off, the starting power forward of the Knicks became Buck Williams, who was at the end of his career.
The former Tanhuaxiu had a wonderful and good career, but he was already 38 years old today. He was a veteran in the late stages of his career.
Lin Long, who was facing him, was even a little worried that this old man would fall apart after being hit by his arm!
In the first attack of the third quarter, Lin Long did not go down the lane after the pick-and-roll. Instead, he split the lane flat. After receiving a pass from Billups, he quickly shot from the middle range.
"Swoosh!"
The ball went in cleanly.
As for Buck Williams, the 38-year-old veteran had yet to break free from Billups 'entanglement, let alone interfere with Lin Long.
On the offensive end, Williams had long become slow and soft. His cover was not solid enough, his hand was not soft enough, and even his footsteps and movement speed were so slow that Lin Long wondered if he was doing it on purpose. He was trying to take advantage of the situation to score.
The old Williams did not pose any threat to Lin Long, so the released Lin Long began to defend everywhere!
He first retracted the basket and successfully interfered with Larry Johnson's layup. Then he sandwiched Houston, making it impossible for him to catch the ball and shoot. He even sandwiched Ewing from behind when he singled Mccarty, forcing Ewing to pass the ball.
The first five minutes of the third quarter became Lin Long's performance.
He appeared in almost every corner of the court. As long as the Knicks wanted to shoot, he would definitely appear in front of the shooter and interfere.
On the offensive side, Linlong also continued his performance of getting all of them!
Whether it was against Mark Williams or Ewing and Larry Johnson who were in front of him after the pick-and-roll.
Lin Longdu ignored them as if they were nothing. As if they were undergoing special shooting training, they hit the long-range shots one after another.
This time, he had scored another five consecutive shots!
It also included a clean three-point shot.
The score between the two sides was slowly pulled apart to more than 10 points.
Lin Long had also scored 16 shots and scored 37 points!
It was only halfway through the third segment.
Once again, the Knicks went through a series of screenings, allowing Alan Houston to face Lin Long.
Originally, this was one of the Knicks 'reserved tactics, allowing Houston to use his powerful shooting ability to stagger the opponent's inside lane to easily score points.
But this time, Lin Long completely blocked Houston's angle and attack route, sticking close to the 1990s king of mid-range shooting.
Compared to the league's top shooting ability, Houston's dribbling skills were far from enough.
Houston felt as if he was fighting a bear with the continuous physical contact!
Not to mention finding an opportunity to attack, Houston needed to do his best to even stand firm and control the ball.
"Weng weng weng!"
Before Houston could find a chance to attack, the 24-second timer rang.
A fullback was actually blocked by an inside player for a 24-second violation!
It was not that such a thing had never happened, but no matter which perimeter player it was, it was an extremely embarrassing and embarrassing thing.
" After Lin Long continuously demonstrated his talent in offense, he has also demonstrated unparalleled ability in defense!" Smith said on television with a smile. Although Houston was not good at dribbling, Lin Long's 1v1 ability was still admirable for being able to defend against him so miserably!”
Wilmarcus added," I think Lin Long has fallen in love with the Knicks. In the opening game against the Knicks, he scored more than 40 points. Today, before the third quarter ended, he scored another 37 points. If he plays against the Knicks every day, Lin Long might be able to become the MVP this year!”
After defending against Houston's single, Lin Long was also extremely excited. He high-fived his teammates one by one to celebrate. This round brought the morale of the Celtics to its peak!
At this moment, Linlong saw Auerbach on the sidelines. The Cardinal gently gestured at Linlong, and Linlong immediately nodded to show that he understood.
In the next round, Lin Long directly moved to the position above the free-throw line. After covering for Billups, he received the basketball that Billups handed over. Then, Lin Long did not raise his head. He passed the ball behind him and sent it to Dee Brown, who was empty in the bottom corner.
Without any hesitation, DeBlanc pulled out a furious shot from outside the three-point line!
"Swoosh!"
Wilmarcus couldn't stay calm anymore. He was so excited that he almost wanted to dance a tango on his seat!
"He can actually do a nolookpass! God! Just how many weapons did this rookie hide?”
