"So far in the first quarter, China Lin has scored 19 points on his own, but because he has also missed many shots that seemed like he should have hit, we cannot confirm whether he has entered Lin's territory in this game.
.”
It's already the eighth minute of the first quarter, and Lin Yu continues to play. In the playoffs, the Knicks' rotation order usually has Lin Yu playing the entire first quarter, so according to the current trend, he should continue to play.
.
On the court, James' breakthrough layup scored two points for the Cavaliers.
The score became 27:18, and the Cavaliers were finally close to a one-point deficit.
But looking back at the Knicks' offense, Lin Yu caught the ball in the backcourt, sprinted quickly to the frontcourt, and directly penetrated the three-point line with the help of Kwame Brown's screen.
The offensive threat he created immediately caused the Cavaliers' defense to completely shrink, just as Lin Yu used a deft turn to wipe out Varejao who was defending.
There was a beep, and the referee blew his whistle surprisingly, stopping the game.
Lin Yu immediately spread his hands because he noticed that Varejao fell to the floor in a flopping manner...
However, the referee still pointed at Lin Yu for an offensive foul!
"The referee Scott Foster indicated that this was an offensive foul."
In the commentary box, Reggie Miller also expressed confusion: "But the slow motion showed that Lin did not push Varejao away, he just turned around."
"Or to put it another way, even if he knocked Varejao away, he should not be sentenced to an offensive foul because Anderson Varejao's footsteps moved before the end."
The footage from multiple angles began to be played back. Every angle did not show Lin Yu violating Varejao while turning around, and it clearly told everyone that Varejao had moved, even if it was a foul.
It should also be a defensive foul!
Lin Yu looked up at the replay on the big screen above his head, and then found the referee Scott Foster amidst the boos and curses.
"I suggest you watch the replay. Mr. Referee, this is a flop!"
Scott Foster shook his head indifferently, and then motioned for the Cavaliers to kick off from the backcourt.
LeBron James grabbed the basketball and passed it to Varejao, also preparing to kick off from the backcourt.
Lionel Hollins asked Dave Joerger to pick up Zach Randolph from the bench and then walked onto the court.
Before he could reach his position, Lin Yu had already spewed out a string of words starting with F.
"Mother fxxk! Mr. Referee, this is the perfect sentence for you. You shouldn't be on the NBA court at all!"
Then, he turned around and found Varejao holding the basketball in both hands.
"Anderson, and you, I misjudged you!"
Anderson Varejao grabbed the ball with one hand and spread his other hand: "Lin, this is the playoffs, this is a war!"
"But you are so disgusting. You, like Mr. Scott Foster and Mr. Mike Callahan, are not worthy of standing on this court!"
Scott Foster immediately warned Lin Yu: "Lin, watch your words."
"You judged his diving as an offensive foul on me and asked me to pay attention to my words? Damn it!"
There was a beep, and the technical prisoner got it.
Hollins also arrived and pulled Lin Yu away immediately.
Hollins did not complain any more, but chose to stop playing. He completed the substitution and let Lin Yu leave the court.
"Lin, you have to restrain yourself. If you commit two technical offenses, you will leave this game forever."
Lin Yu nodded silently. Of course he understood. However, the second foul he was awarded was too outrageous. The referee's control of the field had reached a shameless level, comparable to the 2016 Finals.
Even though he had expected this, he was still furious.
Returning to the bench, Lin Yu covered his head with a towel.
The system has given a prompt——
[The host has activated the "injustice" special effect of the special effect card "Glae of Death". 】
The "unfair" special effect comes from Chris Paul. After encountering an unfair penalty from the referee in a certain game, he inspired his fighting spirit and led his team to win.
The bonus Lin Yu received was 100% of Paul's attribute bonus, which did not cover Lin Yu's original personal attributes.
After the bonus, an all-around warrior on the outside appears.
For Lin Yu, the greatest significance of this bonus is that his physical crisis no longer exists, and his shortcomings in organizing passes and attacking at the basket have also been made up for.
The victory of this game is also in sight.
"Unless this dogecoin referee is shameless and gives me six fouls to leave."
Lin Yu is really worried because technical fouls are not included in the six fouls, so he now has two fouls. It doesn't seem like much, but if he gets two more fouls in the second quarter, it will be four fouls.
, he will have to play less games in the second and third quarters.
Foul crisis is really not far away from him.
#
But soon after he left the field, the situation on the court developed and gave Lin Yu a surprise. Zach Randolph broke out...
"Zach Randolph, he broke out after Lin Yu left the field. He hit three consecutive singles. He has scored 6 points in a row."
"The Knicks did not collapse because of Lin's departure. The Cavaliers still need to face a nearly double-digit deficit..."
Due to Randolph's outburst, when Lin Yu reappeared in the second quarter, the Knicks still maintained a 7-point lead.
Lin Yu, who reappeared, immediately performed as an all-around warrior should, starting with a breakthrough layup.
Then he returned to the defensive end, and after James broke through, he completed the steal of Ben Gordon who was catching the ball and trying to shoot.
During the counterattack, he chased a three-pointer and hit it again!
After three rounds, two offenses and one defense, the score gap returned to double digits.
Although his personal performance was perfect, Lin Yu still avoided LeBron James on the defensive end. Due to the foul crisis, he still did not dare to gamble on winning this game.
The referee's whistle did not stop, and LeBron James' breakthrough caused two fouls in succession.
After the score difference widened to double digits, it quickly approached single digits.
At halftime, the Knicks led the Cavaliers by 7 points, 65:58.
The point difference is not big, at least with 7 points at halftime, the Cavaliers still have a chance to chase points and overtake, and there is even a good chance.
But the good news for the Knicks is that Lin Yu did not foul in the second quarter, which means that at the beginning of the second half, Lin Yu, who had only two fouls, could take action without any scruples.
#
At halftime, Lin Yu was quite satisfied with the first half. The established plan had already been implemented, and the victory of the game was not far away. Killing the Cavaliers with a score of 4:1?
