Craig Sager, a man in colorful clothes, still stopped Lin Yu. Lin Yu was not surprised at all. Who made him the best player in the game?
After the game, Lin Yu did not celebrate at all. Even Anderson Varejao came over to seek interaction, but he refused.
This was in sharp contrast to the first two games of the Eastern Conference Finals. The man in colorful clothes specifically asked about this: "Lin, why didn't you celebrate after winning this game? Is it because of the away game?"
"I just want to tell Celtics fans that even though I'm not happy with what Danny Ainge did to me, I'm still grateful to the Celtics organization because they gave me the opportunity to enter this league.
Opportunity."
Lin Yu's face didn't turn red, and his heart didn't beat. The real reason was that he still wanted to be that person.
In the previous two games, because he had been attacking Danny Ainge in front of the media, Celtics fans were also very dissatisfied with Lin Yu. The boos in this game showed all this.
After the game, Lin Yu believed that he had done nothing wrong and should not bear the boos throughout the game. Therefore, he decided to reverse everything with a show of tricks after the game.
If you want to reverse all this, just this answer is enough.
After the game, apart from the interview with the man in colorful clothes, Lin Yu did not accept any more interviews from other reporters, and he disappeared immediately.
However, reports from major North American print media, online media, and television media are all related to Lin Yu.
ESPN wrote on the homepage of their website: "Once again elected as the best player in the away game, China Lin has completely dominated the Eastern Conference Finals!"
Yahoo Sports also wrote: "Becoming an almighty warrior, China Lin continues to be crazy!"
And USA Today: "Continuing to dominate the Eastern Conference Finals, China's Lin did not celebrate after the game."
The Cleveland Honest Daily is a weird one among these media. Lin Yu is not the protagonist in their post-game reports, at least not in the headlines.
Their headline read: "The Cleveland Cavaliers won another away game and successfully secured a point in the Eastern Conference Finals!"
This is not a problem, but the news specifically stated: "LeBron James scored 28 points, 11 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 steals, Lin Yu scored 31 points, 7 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.
The Zhanlin combination is still not something the Celtics can limit."
But the actual situation is that Lin Yu made 12 of 20 shots, which was extremely efficient. On the contrary, James only made 10 of 23 shots, which was very average.
Lin Yu would not argue with the Honest Newspaper. Anyway, in Cleveland, Lin Yu also has a media outlet that always features him, the Willoughby News-Herald.
The Willoughby News-Herald's post-game report was very straightforward. They boasted about Lin Yu, and even included the fact that Lin Yu is the best player on the Cavaliers until now in the playoffs.
in their reports.
As a result, media competition in the Cleveland area has become increasingly fierce.
The competition in the media basically reflects the competition between Lin Yu and LeBron James. Lin Yu knows very well that his relationship with James is not as harmonious as it seems on the surface.
At least there is competition between them.
"LeBron originally didn't think you would threaten his boss position, so at the beginning, the Cleveland Honest Daily's reports would always have your name as the title. But as time went by, the Honest Daily's reports have tried their best to
Avoiding you as the protagonist, this shows that LeBron is already wary of you, and he is afraid that you will threaten his position in the Cleveland area."
Amanda Gray also appeared in Boston because Lin Yu needed to decide on work arrangements for the summer.
During the discussion, they naturally talked about the competition between Lin Yu and James.
Lin Yu also agreed with Amanda Gray's analysis, but he still found it ridiculous: "He doesn't need to be wary of me, his position in Cleveland is too solid."
But Amanda Gray shook her head: "No, Lin, you underestimate the battle for ranking in competitive sports."
He continued: "For example, if you win the championship this season and the mvp is you instead of LeBron, your team status will gradually be equal to LeBron's. If your personal performance greatly exceeds LeBron's, you will
He will become the Cavaliers player that Cleveland fans love most, completely surpassing LeBron."
Lin Yu didn't expect this point of Amanda Gray's analysis. He just thought that James' collapse in the 2011 Finals was because James needed the FMVP championship to help him improve his historical status.
But now, the situation is different again.
Miami is Wade's territory, but Cleveland is James' territory. James obviously wants to defend his territory, and Lin Yu is the intruder.
As Lin Yu gradually dominates the playoffs, the competition between Lin Yu and James has begun on a small scale in the media.
"If you think about it this way, this year's finals should be a sure loss."
Lin Yu buried this sentence deep in his heart. The reason why he thought this way was because he knew very well that if the Cavaliers wanted to win against the Spurs, Lin Yu had to perform well or make a mistake and defeat the three-handed Death.
Minutes were used up to help the Cavaliers seal a victory.
This also means that Lin Yu has the opportunity to threaten James' FMVP.
In this way, LeBron James' collapse is inevitable, and in Lin Yu's view, James' collapse in his first trip to the Finals is not accidental.
Now James still has shortcomings in his personal skills, including extremely unstable long-range shooting, too single a point-breaking system, completely insufficient dominance on the defensive end, etc...
Therefore, if James fails and Lin Yu doesn't cheat or performs well, the Cavaliers' chances of winning in the finals are really slim.
In Boston, the day after Game 3, in a block near the TD North Shore Garden Arena, a young white fan quickly pushed open the door and entered.
"I sold my tickets for the game the day after tomorrow and lost a little, but it doesn't matter. I really don't want to watch the Celtics' disgusting performance anymore."
The middle-aged white man who was holding a book in the living room raised his head: "Who did you sell it to? At this time, there is still someone asking for Celtics game tickets?"
"An Asian, he is a fan of China Lin. In Boston, there are many Asian fans who support China Lin. Not only that, the Asian who bought my ticket told me that there are also many Celtics fans who are defecting.
Support China Forest.”
"China Forest..."
The middle-aged white man shook his head: "If he is still with the Celtics, we will win."
"So, someone is defecting. It's not China Lin who's wrong, it's Danny Ainge who's wrong! Without his deal, China Lin would still be a member of the Green Army!"
"Look at Lei's shit, he's not even worthy of giving shoes to China!"
