When the timer buzzed for the end of the game, Richard Jefferson stood up from the bench and looked to the other side of the field in frustration.
Lin Yu was receiving hugs and cheers from all members of the Celtics, who were celebrating this hard-won victory.
Thinking of the Celtics winning this game, Richard Jefferson thought that in this game, the flank defense line formed by him and Carter was completely destroyed by Lin Yu alone.
It's funny to think about it. Before this game, no one would take Lin Yu seriously.
In their view, China's Lin was just an inefficient scorer who made 6 of 14 shots in the previous game. To be more precise, Lin Yu in that game was forced to score.
Then came the game. Lin Yu suddenly broke out, and no one in the entire Nets could stand up to stop him.
"48 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 1 block. Data that many players can't get in their lifetime. This guy who averaged 8.2 points per game got it..."
"No, to be precise, his current scoring average has risen to 9.6 points per game."
Carter walked up to Lin Yu. In this match, he was beaten by Lin Yu.
The offensive end was okay, at least he could score goals. Although the shooting rate was average, on the defensive end, Lin Yu's various singles faced Carter's defense.
Carter couldn't stop Lin Yu from scoring. This was a defensive defeat.
"You are very strong in this game, China Lin."
Carter stretched out his right hand, and Lin Yu also smiled and stretched out his right hand, hugging him in the black way. Lin Yu thanked him: "Thank you, Vince."
"You're welcome. I'll call back next time."
Carter turned around and left after saying harsh words. Lin Yu found it a bit funny. He wanted to teach Carter a lesson and join him if he couldn't beat him. This was the most difficult road.
Back in the locker room, as soon as Lin Yu entered the door, there was a burst of cheers and screams.
"Look, our superstar is back!"
"Hey Lin, did any hot girl from New Jersey ask for your phone number along the way?"
Lin Yu smiled and patted Marcus Banks, who was yelling around, and stopped the heckling in the locker room.
"No, don't be like this, everyone, it's just a regular season game!"
Tony Allen shouted: "This is 48 points. Even Paul has only scored 50 points!"
Paul Pierce's career-high score was 50 points. Lin Yu surpassed Pierce by only two points. Hearing this, Lin Yu felt a bit regretful.
He only played more than three minutes in the fourth quarter, and the game entered garbage time.
If the Nets are stronger and the game is more intense, he can score more than ten points, and by then, the data will be even more explosive.
However, the data of 48 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 1 block are enough to be extraordinary.
Everyone was shouting: Crazy China Lin contributed a great performance by a small person!
A little-known figure in the league scored 48 points, single-handedly defeating the perimeter combination of Kidd, Carter and Richard Jefferson.
At least, tomorrow's headlines will be Lin Yu's. Lin Crazy's first step has been quite successful.
ESPN sports TV station, the real-time live broadcast of the game is still continuing, but now it is the post-game session.
They sent well-known sideline reporter Craig Sager to the locker room to interview Lin Yu, who was surprising in this game.
The screen cut over, and soon, Lin Yu appeared in the center of the camera, with Craig Sager standing next to him.
"Okay, Lin, first of all, tell me what you think of this incredible game."
The moment the screen was cut, Sage got to the point and asked the first question.
"Obviously, you can see my expression. I'm very excited right now. I can't believe that I can score 48 points and lead the iron-blooded Green Army to defeat the Nets!"
Kenny Smith and Barkley, who had already set up a studio at the scene, had dark expressions on their faces, and Lin Yu could see excitement on his face.
On the surface, Lin Yu was not excited, but rather calm, because he had buried his excitement deep in his heart. After scoring a career-high 48 points, his heart was already turbulent and turbulent.
"What many people are curious about is, how many fadeaway jumpers did you make in this game?"
Sure enough, the problem came. Lin Yu had already expected that after the game, some people would be curious about why he suddenly made so many fadeaway jumpers.
He had already thought of his words: "Well...actually I just gave it a try. You know, in this game, the first ball I shot was a catch ball. When I got it, there was not much time left.
Chad Jefferson played great defense and I had to fade away and take that shot and it went in."
"I felt great, and then I tried continuous fadeaway jumpers and made countless fadeaway jumpers. I lost count."
Charles Barkley in the studio was not satisfied with Lin Yu's explanation. He spread his hands and said: "What the hell! He just tried it and scored 48 points?"
During the interview, Sager had already asked the next question: "Some people say that your fadeaway jumper is very standard and full of beauty, comparable to Jordan and Kobe. What do you think?"
Lin Yu smiled: "Before the game was over, I took a peek at the big screen above the stadium and saw the replay of my fadeaway jumper. It was indeed beautiful."
"Tell me about your dunk. As far as I know, you have never dunked before?"
Lin Yu nodded: "That's right, I haven't deducted it."
"Then why did you choose to dunk that ball?"
"Because it was a good opportunity to dunk. I thought I could dunk, so I dunked..."
"..."
The interview in the locker room continued, but at the ESPN studio, the director directly announced that the stream was cut off.
Buckley looked confused: "What happened? Why was the flow cut off? Craig Sager's interview is not over yet."
The director looked excited: "A bigger news event happened in the west, and it exploded."
"It exploded? Can there be a more explosive news event than this game?"
Barkley still couldn't understand. On the other side, Kenny Smith, who was brushing his computer, shouted: "Oh my God, Kobe Bryant?!!"
After playing against the Nets and ending the interview, the Celtics rushed to Philadelphia non-stop. This season, they have an away matchup with the 76ers.
"Lin, I heard, you scored 48 points, an exciting game!"
As soon as he got off the plane, Lin Yu received a call from Jeff Schwartz. Calculating the time, this guy should have called earlier.
"Jeff, are you just excited?"
"Of course, do you think I should be excited about this?"
Lin Yu just asked jokingly, but Jeff Schwartz's rhetorical question made him feel strange, and he immediately felt something was wrong.
"what happened?"
"Charles Barkley said you were locked into tomorrow's headlines, but just an hour later, at 9 p.m. Western time, the game between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Toronto Raptors ended..."
Before Jeff Schwartz finished speaking, Lin Yu had already guessed what happened.
"Kobe Bryant scored 81 points?"
"You know? Didn't you just get off the plane? Did you meet a reporter?"
Jeff Schwartz asked back, and Lin Yu suddenly felt helpless. Of course, it was not because he met reporters, but because these two key elements were connected between the Lakers and the Raptors in 2006, and he naturally remembered that
The famous 81 points.
"So, my headlines are gone."
"That's right, not only your headlines are gone, but many people's headlines are also gone. Did you know that the Rockets played the Pistons away from home, and McGrady also scored 43 points, and then failed to win the game and lost by two points; and Super League
Sonics and Suns, they played a double overtime, and Ray Allen scored 42 points."
"By the way, there is also the opponent you are about to face, the 76ers. They challenged the Timberwolves away from home. They completed the comeback after falling behind by 19 points. AI scored 39 points. Iguodala picked up the rebound and killed the opponent!
"
"In normal times, every game here has a chance to occupy the headline position. Of course, you who scored 48 points should have the best chance, but you met Kobe who scored 81 points!"
"fxxk, I want to kill Kobe, who let him steal my headlines!"
Jeff Schwartz on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment: "Congratulations, after you finish playing the 76ers and Heat, you will go to the West and challenge the Lakers. You will have a chance to kill Kobe."
"My mother-fxxk will definitely do it!"
"..."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yu suddenly felt a little melancholy. Why did they bump into each other?
Or, why can't the Nets be stronger?
If he scored more than ten or twenty points, the situation might be different. He would have the opportunity to share the headlines with Kobe, but now, the headlines belong only to Kobe, who scored 81 points.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore, if we do it again tomorrow, the headline will definitely be mine!"
After looking through the system warehouse, he found that there was really no more useful card. He decided to be on the safe side and use the "UAE Template Experience Card" when facing the 76ers to continue Lin Crazy first.
"Well, Chris Bosh's addition is better than nothing."
Chris Bosh's technical characteristics, coupled with Lin Yu's own long-range shooting and defense, he can try to score a double-double tomorrow.
"Then let's set a small goal and have a 30+20 game."
