Just when Lin Ying was attending the press conference, social media was already like the Chinese New Year again.
The regular season is very long, and in a long season, games like this are the best talking points.
"Lin is the first player to score 35+ with the Celtics this season, and of course 40+, 45+!"
"My roommate asked me why I was kneeling to watch the game. I told him that I saw God performing."
"Why not your girlfriend? Could it be that you..."
"I don't want to brag about it, but I think this buzzer-beater is even more shocking than Lin's previous 14 points in 35 seconds!"
"Look at a lucky ball blowing you away, as if you won the championship!"
"When will a buzzer beater be counted as a career honor? Oh, the last player like this was named Tracy McGrady."
"How come you are allowed to be number one in the league with a black schedule, 48 points in a single game and a historic buzzer-beater, but you can't brag about it?!"
"In the world of blacks, if you don't play well, you should be black, but if you play well, it's illegal!"
"I like the partnership between Lin and Sloan so much. It feels like a collaboration between a top pianist and a top singer. This song should only exist in heaven!"
"Sloan: I've been a backdrop all my life, why can't I enjoy it anymore?"
"God is in Brooklyn, the best show in history!" A comment from "Lin Ying 10087 Fans".
…
Along with these comments from fans, videos ranging from Deron's quasi-win to Lin Ying's miraculous win also went viral on the Internet.
Some fans who missed the live broadcast of the game immediately looked for the video and watched the replay.
Most basketball games, when you know the result, you don't want to watch the tape.
But there are some games that you would want to replay even if you know the results.
Even if you know exactly what the result will be, your blood will still boil when you see it.
For example, Tracy McGrady's 35 seconds and 13 minutes, or this decisive moment.
Lin Ying has become very popular again.
Of course, for Lin Ying, the more important thing is that the team has won eight consecutive games since the start of the season.
And after this game, they will have another easy schedule, which means they hope to continue their winning streak.
…
In the blink of an eye, it’s early December.
The Nets finally ended the November schedule with 13 consecutive wins and the best record start in team history!
In addition to the classic battle against the Celtics, they also had a strong dialogue with the Lakers at the end of November.
That game was also extremely fierce. With Lin Ying's fatal block on Paul at the end, the Nets narrowly won.
By the time the competition ended this month, there were obviously fewer doubts on social media.
Achievements are the most powerful weapon to respond to doubts.
At this time, the alliance announced the monthly awards for November.
With a record of 12 wins in 12 games in November, the Nets also ushered in a bumper harvest.
Jerry Sloan once again won the Coach of the Month award after more than two years.
The last time he won this award was back in 2009, when he led the Jazz to a 10-1 record in February and was successfully elected as the Player of the Month.
The Eastern Conference Player of the Month was also awarded to Lin Ying.
Lin Ying averaged 25 points, 6.8 rebounds, 6.7 assists, 2 steals and 1.6 blocks per game in November, with three shooting percentages of 54%/82.8%/45.2% respectively.
His 48 points against the Celtics and 27 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists against the Lakers are classic masterpieces.
In Sweet November, basketball fans are happier than ever.
And Brooklyn has also become a blessed place in the hearts of basketball fans, because after the team officially moved here, the Nets have not lost a game.
This has also caused the ticket price of the arena to skyrocket.
The football market is growing rapidly, and the Nets' market value is also rising.
And during this period of time, some important things also happened around Lin Ying.
The most important thing is that his Lin Shigong Investment Company has become a dark horse in the investment market.
Investing in B-bit coins, catching up with the peak that Lin Ying couldn't clearly remember, the result was a direct increase of more than ten times.
This makes all real estate investments unnecessary.
Then after selling a portion of Bitcoin, they also successfully invested in Big Machine Records, acquiring 34% of the shares and becoming the second largest shareholder.
The reason for this value is because general board of directors decisions require 2/3 vote support. In other words, this is the minimum share price for one-vote veto power.
Moreover, there are not many shareholders in Big Machinery Company. If Lin Shigong wants to go further, he has to talk to his boss Scott Borchetta about the 51% of the shares he holds.
For now, Bochetta has no intention of giving up the company he built.
However, this matter is not urgent, and negotiations between the two will continue.
And under Lin Ying's instruction, the investment company basically focused all its energy on Bitcoin.
Because the price of BitCoin at this time was like a roller coaster, Lin Ying knew it would rise, so he just kept buying it at low prices.
In addition to this, the filming plan for "Super Body" has also begun.
Du Zilong's horsemanship skills are still outstanding, and he can reach the king of the slope with a spear.
He also successfully persuaded Scarlett to squeeze out of her schedule.
It turns out that there are two types of people who travel through time.
One is without primitive accumulation, and you will encounter many difficulties if you want to make a fortune.
The other type is those who have a lot of wealth, and money makes money really fast.
Of course, Lin Ying's attention was focused on another thing at this time.
It's Swift's birthday soon!
Time flies so fast, more than a year has passed since Swift performed "Confessions of Love" in her concert.
Because the relationship was established not long ago, Swift didn't have a good time on her first birthday.
But the situation is definitely different now.
Swift is now pregnant with Lin Ying's child, which would be a big deal if she didn't care.
In fact, he had already started preparing for this before the China game.
This is almost the final stage.
When it comes to creativity, Lin Ying has to trace it back to two places this time.
One is something I prepared when I was in love with Brooke;
The second is a movie about Happy Twist that he has seen before.
In short, everything is ready and waiting for the day to arrive.
Entering December, the Nets' schedule began to become difficult. They successively played against strong opponents such as the Mavericks, Thunder, and Pacers.
Moreover, the team has also experienced some injuries. Two key veterans, Brand and Billups, have missed one or two games due to minor injuries.
But what no one expected was that the Nets' winning streak hadn't stopped yet!
The main reason for this is the stability of the pick-and-roll tactics itself and the Nets' excellent team depth.
As of December 11, their winning streak has expanded to 18 games!
This winning streak ranks tied for seventh in NBA history!
If we count the winning streak until the start of the season, this is the first in NBA history!
What followed was a cry on social media: Who can stop them?
Now let alone ESPN's predictions, even Stern probably couldn't have imagined that the Nets could achieve such a record.
Now every game of the Nets has attracted much attention. In addition to the winning streak, who will end their winning streak is also a major attraction.
At this time, Lin Ying celebrated Swift's birthday at his home in Brooklyn.
At the birthday dinner, Swift's family, Lin Ying's uncle, Durant and Scarlett, Bieber and Selena, Yang Shuyi, etc. were all present.
A banquet that was luxurious enough but not extravagant, not too crowded but warm enough.
Because Swift's belly was very obvious, she sat there most of the time, with Yang Shuyi taking care of her.
Lin Ying also sat next to him at first, then pulled Durant behind and chatted for a while.
"I want a child too."
Durant seems to want to catch up with Lin Ying's "progress".
"You can only rely on yourself for this."
Lin Ying said with a smile.
I can help with other things, but there is really nothing I can do about having a baby.
Durant laughed bitterly when he heard it and took a sip of wine, then showed a bitter look on his face.
"She disagrees."
She, of course, refers to Scarlett.
This is also understandable, Scarlett and Swift are not people of the same personality.
And actors and singers are different. Singers can create music even when they are pregnant, but actors can only stop acting when they are pregnant.
Scarlett is now at the peak of her career, and his relationship with Durant is not as good as Lin Ying and Swift, so it is normal.
"Kevin, enjoy the time together, that's the most important thing."
Lin Ying couldn't say that you couldn't even drink the bath water in history, and it was all about asking for a bicycle, so he could only try to comfort him.
"Yes, you are right."
Durant said and took another sip of wine.
After the banquet, it was getting late and everyone else was leaving one after another.
Durant took Scarlett directly to Manhattan.
Lin Ying and Swift agreed to spend 12 o'clock with him.
When they were almost there, the two of them arrived on the balcony.
It was still a bit cold in New York in December, Lin Ying supported Swift.
Just at 12 o'clock, sharp sounds suddenly sounded from the river bend in the distance.
That's the sound of fireworks.
Swift obviously realized something and looked towards the bend of the river.
There were some ships anchored there, and they were waiting for a long time.
"Bang!"
The fireworks exploded high in the sky, and instead of turning into gorgeous fireworks, they exploded directly into letters in the air.
The first wave of explosions is followed by "Happy", the second wave of explosions is followed by "birthday", and the third wave is "Taylor.Swift"!
When Swift saw this, his eyes widened at first, and then he looked incredulously.
Fireworks, can you play like this?
She had never seen fireworks like this in the United States.
At this time, there were many Chinese people among the busy people on the ferry in the distance.
Because fireworks cannot be transported by air, Lin Ying directly found domestic designers and found local fireworks factories to make them.
This is a real waste of money.
And those things are still going on, and I wish you happiness, joy, happiness, and courage every day.
Every sound and every word was like a pendulum of happiness hitting Swift's heart, and she felt like her heart was about to melt.
However, she probably never imagined that this... was just the beginning!
After the fireworks in the river bend ended, the sound of fireworks rang out throughout Brooklyn.
The sound of fireworks roared around, and then they shot into the air and exploded.
The city is filled with fireworks!
At this time, Swift couldn't help but hold her mouth and couldn't hold back her tears.
This wave is Lin Ying's imitation of the fireworks in "The Richest Man in Xihong City".
No girl can remain indifferent in such a scenario.
What's more, Swift already loves Lin Ying.
This is the best birthday gift she has ever received in her life.
…
A hotel in Manhattan.
Huge fireworks explosions sounded all around, and Durant, who was fighting on Changbanpo, was frightened.
He didn't know what was happening outside, but the sound of constant explosions was like the clanging war drums urging people on!
I am Oklahoma Du Zilong!
…
The Nets' winning streak ended in Game 19, when they lost to the Spurs 101-105.
The best start in history, while attracting attention from the outside world, is actually an inexplicable pressure on themselves.
For example, the previous injuries to Brand and Billups were largely due to fighting too hard to continue the winning streak.
Recording is motivation, but of course it is also pressure.
But apart from these, another thing worthy of attention is the strength of the Spurs.
Among the six teams in the East and West mentioned before, the Knicks, Celtics, and Nets in the East, and the Lakers, Mavericks, and Thunder in the West, the Spurs are not among them.
This is also normal. The Spurs, whose average age is one year older, although they are still as competitive as in previous years, are obviously not as good as these super teams on paper.
However, in this game, the Spurs showed the already formed "hammer tactics", which can be said to let the outside world know what the eternal Spurs are.
In this season where there are many powerful players and super teams everywhere, it is not impossible for the Spurs to break out of the siege.
Moreover, pick-and-roll tactics and hammer tactics are going to rekindle a tactical craze in the league!
The winning streak was ended, but the outside world's eyes did not take away from the Nets.
Because at this point in time, the Christmas War is coming soon.
There are obviously more Christmas wars this year than in past years.
There are Lakers VS Thunder in the West, and two games in the East, Heat VS Celtics, and Nets VS Knicks.
Originally in the same division, the New York Derby should have started long ago.
However, the alliance unexpectedly arranged the first battle on Christmas Day, and the purpose was self-evident.
Last year, I made enough money by doing this.
This year, ESPN predicted at the beginning of the season that the Nets will have the best start in history, which will whet the appetite for the Derby.
And this game is played at the Barclays Center.
Whether it is "King James has the final say whether there will be chaos in New York" or "the old king has passed away and a new king will be crowned", this game will have a result.
And although Bogut is absent, Ray Allen has gradually integrated into the team, and the Knicks have now surpassed the Celtics to second in the Eastern Conference.
As a result, this Christmas war has become the most powerful confrontation between the East and the West.
Chapter completed!
