A different point guard path

...........

Barkley said: "In general, both teams have played out their own characteristics, and the Bulls are also in good condition. They were not easily opened up by the Knicks to score more points."

Kenny Smith said: "Dayao's foul is a small trouble, of course, it is limited to a small trouble. The Knicks also have Gasol Jr. and Jordan Jr. as backup centers on the bench. These two rookies played in the regular season. All very good."

Barkley said: "The Knicks' interior is very luxurious, and they even have more interior reserves than the Lakers and Magic."

Kenny Smith said with a smile: "Maybe Isaiah Thomas is fed up with the feeling of being exploded inside, so he desperately hoards inside."

..........

The sideline bench.

D'Antoni emphasized to the players: "It's too inefficient to attack the basket more or shoot more three-pointers, and reduce the two-point shots from the middle distance. We need to make the offense more efficient."

D'Antoni's emphasis on offense is more than defense, which is also his coaching style.

Knicks players are also accustomed to such tactical arrangements and emphasis.

Second quarter game.

The Knicks sent a lineup of Lin Rui, Crawford, Richardson, Tucker, and Gasol Jr.

The Knicks have enough rotations, and D'Antoni used ten rotations!

On the Bulls' side, except for Gray who was replaced by Gooden, the other positions are all starters.

This is the tone of the series set by De Nagro.

Only by using more starting time to win the Knicks' second team, will the Bulls have a chance.

Of course, this is also related to the depth of the Bulls' lineup. The Bulls don't have more players to rotate.

Knicks offense.

Lin Rui brought the ball to the front court, and the Bulls immediately flanked Lin Rui.

The Bulls increased their defensive strength against Lin Rui, trying to put more pressure on Lin Rui's organization.

Lin Rui scored the ball to Crawford on one side.

Crawford is a player with a strong ability to attack independently. He tried Ben Gordon directly after he got the ball.

Crawford's extraordinary is a must, his dribbling is very wild, and Ben Gordon failed to guard Crawford.

Crawford's dribble rush immediately attracted the Bulls' defensive attention.

Noah's timely help blocked Crawford's route, and Crawford jumped up and gave the ball to Lin Rui who was outside.

After Lin Rui received the ball, he also rushed immediately, and Ross was passed by Lin Rui in seconds.

After Lin Rui rushed in, he disrupted the Bulls' defense again. Noah made up the defense again, but Lin Rui took the initiative.

Lin Rui gave Noah a confrontation and then drifted to hit the board.

The tempo is great.

"boom!"

The rebound fell into the basket after rebounding.

25 is better than 33

"The Knicks' streak of scoring made the Bulls' defense exhausted."

"Crawford's breakthrough is still good."

"Compared to last season, Crawford has regressed a bit this season, which may also be caused by other rookies affecting his playing time."

Crawford is very popular in China because of his coquettish style of play, and the exposure of playing next to Lin Rui at home. Many fans also like to watch Crawford play.

Crawford is now also trying to learn to do more than score.

The Knicks this season is different from last season. There are many players who can score, so he doesn't have to worry about it.

Bulls attack.

Noah served, Rose did not go to catch the ball, but let the ball roll on the ground.

In this way, you can observe the defense of the opposite side without consuming time.

Lin Rui stood on the center line to guard against Rose.

Seeing Ross playing like a rolling ball beast, Lin Rui was not polite at all, and rushed over with explosive acceleration.

Lin Rui's swoop.

Lin Rui's outburst was beyond Rose's expectations. Rose wanted to pick up the ball, but was a little slower.

Ross robbed Lin Rui, and the result was "beep beep!!"

The referee whistled Rose's foul.

"Don't learn from Rose, but learn from Paul."

"Haha, Lin Rui is doing great, let the Rolling Ball Beasts learn a lesson."

"There's still a lot of time, Ross's brain is twitching?"

"Ross suffered a big loss, playing with Lin Rui like this!"

"One of Rolling Beast's least favorite scenes."

Madison Garden Arena and the fans watching TV cheered.

Denagro frowned when he saw this scene: "Derek, be more stable!"

Every round of the playoffs is important, and too low-level mistakes cannot be made.

Ross wiped his sweat nervously.

Knicks possession of the ball.

Richardson sends the ball to Crawford.

After Crawford glanced at Lin Rui's position, he resolutely dribbled the ball and continued to attack Ben Gordon.

Ben Gordon was once again swayed by Crawford after two consecutive changes of direction. Crawford broke through and scored the ball to Lin Rui.

Tucker made a pick-and-roll for Lin Rui, Rose was blocked, and Lin Rui did not go further after taking a sudden step.

Lin Rui sent the ball directly to Gasol under the basket.

The Bulls' defensive attention is on Lin Rui's side, and Gasol is in the open.

Little Gasol's easy one-handed dunk! !

25:35.

The Knicks once again opened up to a 10-point gap.

Lin Rui's pass was also very penetrating, directly penetrating the Bulls' defense.

The fans cheered again.

Fans love seeing the Knicks' offense run like a cloud right now.

Bulls attack.

Rose was very cautious this time and didn't dare to play around. He dribbled the ball to the frontcourt and immediately gave the ball to Ben Gordon.

Ben Gordon hails Noah's cover.

Noah blocked Crawford, and Ben Gordon directly pulled a three-pointer with the help of a screen.

This shot is a bit unreasonable, and the rhythm is a bit wrong.

but!

"Shh!"

28:35.

The Bulls relied on this unreasonable goal to bite the Knicks in the first quarter, making it impossible for the Knicks to easily continue to expand the score.

Knicks attack.

Lin Rui quickly dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

Lin Rui continued to be flanked.

Neither Gasol Jr. nor Tucker has reached the inside line, and the Bulls' inside line has not been fully positioned.

But Richardson cut inside, and Lin Rui passed the ball without looking and continued to the right side of the basket.

Richardson took off into the sky, caught the lob from Lin Rui, and smashed it directly into the basket! !

"frame!!"

28:37.

The Knicks' offense was very fast. Lin Rui and Richardson completed the offense before the inside players of the two teams were in their positions.

"This is running and bombing, it's too fast."

"Lin Rui's pass was too stealthy, I thought he was going to play it himself."

"Amazing, Lin Rui."

"Richardson and Lin Rui have a tacit understanding."

"Lin Rui is the No. 1 position with both offensive ability and organizational ability."

"Lin Rui is basically the mvp this season, and his influence on the Knicks is profound."

On the field.

Lin Rui gave Richardson a high-five to celebrate. Richardson's performance in the regular season was not very active. After entering the playoffs, his running and enthusiasm improved significantly.

Bulls attack again.

Ben Gordon is still the Bulls' first tactical offensive point.

Now Rose only exists as Ben Gordon's support.

Ben Gordon also has many scoring abilities and methods, and it is difficult for Crawford to limit him.

Ben Gordon dribbled and tried Crawford.

Although Crawford's defense is not good, he defends very hard.

"boom!"

"boom!"

The continuous confrontation between the two.

Crawford's attitude is also representative of the Knicks' attitude at other positions.

Ben Gordon squeezed past Crawford, and he forced an emergency stop in the middle distance.

Ben Gordon's offense was sharp, but Crawford's defense did not lose position.

"frame!"

The basketball hit the rim and popped out, and was directly taken down by Tucker.

D'Antoni on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief, this kind of ball cannot be scored every time.

Tucker gave the ball to Lin Rui after receiving the ball.

Lin Rui took the ball directly and counterattacked quickly.

Lin Rui accelerated and rushed to the right of Ross, and then changed direction at high speed to pass Luol Deng.

Noah tried his best to return to the defense, and Lin Rui approached Noah.

Use Noah's body to complete the pivoting.

Lin Rui turned around and brushed past Noah, hitting the basket.

Lin Rui caught the Bulls defense by surprise. He collected the ball and flew into the air, swung a windmill in the air and smashed the ball hard into the basket! ! !

"frame!!"

28:39.

The difference between the two teams reached 11 points.

"Lin Rui is so handsome!!"

"The speed is so fast, as long as the Bulls' defense is a little stunned, Lin Rui can make them get hit."

"Really cool!!"

"Lin Rui who rushed up is really irresistible!"

"Lin Rui's offensive awareness is top-notch."

"This is the superstar, and the playoffs will be even more dazzling."

"Pass the ball when it's time to pass, and assist when it's time to assist. The switch is perfect."

After finishing the attack, Lin Rui patted his chest towards the camera.

Such a one-stop attack made Lin Rui very excited.

Madison Garden Arena shouts mvp! !

The fans cheered louder and louder!

The pressure on Rose is also mounting.

Rose didn't know how Lin Rui in his rookie season led such a Knicks to become the overlord of the Eastern Conference and reach the finals.

After Rose entered the playoffs himself, he found all this difficult.

Bulls' offense.

Rose patted himself on the chest, calming down his emotions a little.

Rose doesn't have time to be frustrated, he's focused on the game.

Rose went to the frontcourt and played a pick-and-roll with Noah. After the pick-and-roll, Lin Rui was delayed, and Rose decisively broke into the inside with the ball.

Rose's speed was too fast, and Tucker and Gasol had already paid attention to it, but they were still attacked by Rose.

In the interior confrontation, Rose scored the ball with a difficult layup! !

30:39.

There is one thing to say, Rose feels very good today, and his playoff debut is not stage fright at all.

Knicks attack.

Lin Rui broke through to attract the pincers and then gave the ball to Crawford. Crawford dribbled the ball from the outside and then gave it to Tucker in the bottom corner.

Tucker was left short.

A three-pointer from the bottom corner.

"Shh!"

30:42.

The Knicks' offense is very stable! !

The Bulls attacked, and Rose still greeted Noah's pick-and-roll.

This time Lin Rui was on guard. Although he was passed by Ross, Lin Rui followed closely.

Rose changed direction and hit Gasol, and the speed was slightly delayed.

Rose tried to pick the basket after passing Gasol.

but!

"Snapped!"

Lin Rui slapped Rose's basketball away.

Lin Rui also knocked Ross down.

However, this ball is the person who hits the ball first and then hits it, so it is not a foul.

"Lin Rui won't make consecutive mistakes, and Rose's offense is still too simple."

"Ross's breakthrough is really sharp, passing people casually, it is almost meaningless in the end."

"Ross' speed is so fast, but Lin Rui's chasing speed is not enough."

"Lin Rui's chasing is no worse than James. His chasing and defending is definitely a nightmare for defenders."

The fans at the scene continued to cheer for Lin Rui's wonderful defense.

Fans also know that Lin Rui can do such a thing, and they will be very excited when they see this scene happening in front of them.

Lin Rui has top-level physical talent, and it is not difficult to achieve such catching up in speed and jumping.

During the regular season, Lin Rui can often complete this kind of blocking in the face of the opponent's fast break, and this kind of blocking is also very morale-boosting.

A show full of talent and passion! !

Lin Rui's strength is not only reflected in the offense, but also in the defense.

Rose seemed to have been hit by a truck. He lay on the ground for a while before standing up.

Re-tee.

Noah sent the ball to Luol Deng.

Luol Deng made an emergency stop after taking a dribble for the middle distance!

Luol Deng's shot rhythm was a bit hasty, and the Knicks put a lot of defensive pressure on them.

"frame!"

Once again strike the iron.

The rebound was controlled by Tucker.

Tucker continued to give the ball to Lin Rui.

Ross came up to defend Lin Rui.

Lin Rui pushed Ross away with his back.

Rose didn't mean to cut the ball, as long as he did, he would be easily passed by Lin Rui.

After Lin Rui pushed Rose to the frontcourt, he rushed forward.

Ross continued to follow closely, Lin Rui quickly took a step back, and Ross was shaken away by Lin Rui.

Lin Rui stood still outside the three-point line, and Luol Deng's defense was slow.

Lin Rui made a quick three-point shot.

The basketball draws a wonderful arc! !

"Shhh!!"

30:45.

15 points difference, completely opened! !

"Timeout!" Denagro shouted anxiously to stop the game. This game is in big trouble.

Barkley shouted: "The advantages of the two teams were fully demonstrated in the second quarter. It is very difficult for the Bulls to defend a round of the Knicks."

Kenny Smith said: "The Knicks are more stable on both ends of the offense and defense, while the Bulls are very anxious. If this continues, the situation will become more and more unfavorable for the Bulls."

After the pause comes back.

Dayao came up.

Rose passed an in-cut ball to Luol Deng, and Luol Deng glided from the left to the right in the air with a counter-basket pull! !

The basketball bounces off the backboard and falls into the hoop.

"boom!"

"Shh!"

32:45.

Dayao's defensive rhythm was staggered, and he patted the ball a little depressed.

The Knicks' offense is back.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the front court and encountered a flank attack, Lin Rui sent the ball to Crawford.

Crawford failed to break through, and he returned the ball to Lin Rui.

Before the flank attack came up, Yao Ming stepped up to cover.

Lin Rui walked around Dayao's body looking for opportunities.

The bull's attack came up, but it was useless. Lin Rui found an opportunity to break through the crowd.

Lin Rui hit the inside line, and Gooden assisted in the defense. After Lin Rui fought against Gooden, he easily advanced the ball.

32:47.

When Lin Rui rushed up, it meant that the Bulls' defense also failed.

Gooden didn't dare to take the ball at all, as long as he did it, it would be a foul.

The Knicks' offensive efficiency is still very high.

The Bulls kept trying to chase points, but failed.

The situation in the first half of the game was firmly in Lin Rui's hands.

The first half also ended quickly, and the score between the two sides came to 43 to 69.

The Knicks led by as many as 26 points at home.

The Bulls' defense has been hammered by the Knicks.

The point difference between the two teams is very large, and this kind of point difference makes the Bulls feel desperate.

The Bulls knew that the Knicks were difficult to play, but they didn't expect it to be this difficult.

It seemed that there was no hope at the beginning of this game. They kept trying to seize the initiative of the game, but they just couldn't succeed.

Trailing by 27 points in the first half, and then still at the Knicks' home court, can they catch up?

No matter how confident the Bulls are, they dare not say that.

De Nagro's heart was very tired, and he didn't expect the team to lose so many points.

Rose is very talented, but he looks too young to face Lin Rui.

Rose's 12 points, 5 assists and 3 turnovers in the first half looked good.

But the gap with Lin Rui's 31 points, 9 assists, 6 rebounds and 0 turnovers seems too big.

Similarly, Ben Gordon and Lin Rui are not at the same level of players.

The Bulls' interior did cause some small troubles to the Knicks' interior, but it was only a small trouble.

The Knicks' inside line can only be said to be playing normally.

And then the Bulls are so far behind now.

The Bulls rely heavily on Rose's breakthrough and Gordon's shooting, but neither of them exploded, which made the Bulls' situation instantly passive.

..........

CCTV studio.

Zhang Weiping said with a smile: "Dayao is likely to usher in the easiest playoff victory. Judging from the first half of the game, the Knicks still led by a big score even though Dayao didn't play much. Lin Rui's dominance shows that it is too difficult for the Bulls to prevent the Knicks from scoring."

Xu Jicheng said: "After Lin Rui entered the playoffs, he played more focused. We recalled last season, when Lin Rui wanted to score or assist, no one could stop him."

Zhang Weiping said: "In the second season of his career, Lin Rui has conquered the vast majority of football fans, and he is gradually becoming a national idol!"

Xu Jicheng shouted: "Lin Rui's performance is too strong, which also drives the strength of the Knicks. The depth of the Knicks' lineup this season is bottomless. Everything is saying that they are ready for the championship. "

Zhang Weiping said: "As long as the Bulls don't make too many adjustments at the beginning of the second half, then this game will have ended early."

Xu Jicheng said: "The Knicks are rarely reversed when they are leading. This is also due to the fact that they have many players who can play."

The two commentators kept boasting about the Knicks' deep lineup and Lin Rui's leadership.

The lead in the score let their attitude relax.

"After watching the first half, I just want to say that Lin Rui is too strong and Rose is too young!"

"Lin Rui's ability to control the situation has improved compared to last season."

"Lin Rui no longer needs to keep scoring by himself, he has many helpers who can help him score."

"30+ at half time is very easy for Lin Rui."

"There is no suspense in this game."

"This year's champion is actually very good, but it can't compare with last year's champion."

"Lin Rui is the ceiling for all rookies."

"The Knicks are awesome, the Knicks champion!!"

"The Bulls don't have the confidence to come back!!"

After watching the first half, the fans probably know the situation of the second half of the game.

As they expected.

The Bulls tried to launch a counterattack as soon as they came up, but Lin Rui easily controlled the situation.

The Knicks focused on Randolph and Dayao in the second half, and the two broke out in the paint.

The bull's rhythm was forced to stop.

Rose wants to use a breakthrough to score, but this kind of breakthrough score is a drop in the bucket!

The Knicks team played steadily, and after the end of the third quarter, the point difference was stabilized at about 35 points.

In the fourth quarter, the Knicks rotated all the main players and began to prepare for the next game.

The same is true for the Bulls.

De Nagro chose to give up this game and focus on g2 to see if there is any hope! !

In the end, the game score stayed at 91 to 131.

The Knicks slaughtered the Bulls with a 1-point advantage in G40 in the first round.

The Bulls did not show much resistance in front of the Knicks.

The Knicks lead 1-0.

Barkley said: "The Knicks won this game very easily. They defeated the Bulls easily, but the offense against the Bulls was in trouble. They couldn't cause too much challenge to the Knicks defense."

Smith said: "As a rookie, the Bulls' No. 22 pick Derrick Rose performed very well. He scored 8 points, 7 assists and 41 rebounds, but he was far behind Lin Rui. Lin Rui scored 16. With a triple-double of points, 10 assists and [-] rebounds, the two are not at the same level of players, and it is difficult for Rose to cause trouble for Lin Rui."

Barkley said: "What the Bulls should think about now is what they should do in the next game. Judging from this situation, it is difficult for them to win a victory against the Knicks."

Smith said: "Yes, the Bulls need to have more changes, otherwise they may be swept."

The two commentators of tnt never imagined that the Knicks would win the first game so easily. Judging from the situation in the regular season, the two teams can still play back and forth.

Technical statistics on both sides, in addition to Lin Rui's 40+ triple-double, Randolph scored 18 points and 8 rebounds, Yao 12 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks, Crawford 12 points, Richardson 10 points, Ke Wall 9 points.

The Knicks are working as a whole team, and almost everyone on the field has contributed.

公牛那边，本戈登拿到全队最高的28分5篮板4助攻数据，罗尔邓拿到12分6篮板3助攻。

In addition to Rose, Ben Gordon, and Luol Deng, the Bulls did not have the fourth player to score in double figures.

Noah scored 6 points, 10 rebounds and 3 blocks, and his performance was quite satisfactory.

..........

On the field, Lin Rui didn't stay for long after winning the game.

For Lin Rui, it is not difficult to win a playoff game, the difficulty is to keep winning like this until the championship!

The camera is constantly pointing at Lin Rui, and the highlights of Lin Rui's game are constantly being played on the TV and the big screen at the scene. As long as Lin Rui is on the field, the fans can feel at ease.

...........

"You only need to watch the first 20 minutes of this game, and you don't need to watch the rest. The strength gap between the two teams is too great."

"Lin Rui has always been so fierce!"

"The Bulls' defense was so bad, the Knicks made it easy."

"Lin Rui's current dominance is the ceiling of the league. I feel that James and Kobe are not as powerful as Lin Rui."

"In terms of personal data, Lin Rui is the only player!"

"If Lin Rui and Kobe went head-to-head, I would pay to watch it."

After the game, the game also caused heated discussions.

Of course, what is hotly discussed is how powerful the Knicks' offensive is.

This playoff victory also made the Knicks more likely to win the championship.

The first round of the game was over soon, and the Knicks were the easiest team to win.

.............

The day after the end of the first round.

Many experts talked about the Knicks first round game.

Magic Johnson said: "The Knicks are too easy in the East. Lin can easily dominate the game. He is different from LeBron, Kobe and even Michael. He is affecting the game in his own way."

Olajuwon said: "I have always been against direct comparisons between Lin and Michael, because it's not fair. Lin needs time to get honor now, so that he will surpass everyone."

Glider said: "The Knicks are ready to become a championship team. To be honest, except for injuries, no one can stop them from winning the championship. The only suspense is which team can beat such a team. Knicks."

Ewing said: "The Knicks have ushered in the best opportunity to win the championship. The current Bulls will not stop their footsteps. The Knicks are the champions!!"

.........

"The Knicks sweep probability is as high as 80%! "

"The No. [-] pick Rose frequently faced Lin Rui's embarrassment. "

"The Knicks slaughtered the Bulls, the two teams are not rivals at the same level. "

Although the outside world didn't take the Bulls seriously, Lin Rui didn't care about it.

Lin Rui still leads by example to drive his teammates to prepare for and encourage regular games.

The g2 game will start soon.

At the pre-match press conference.

Rose vowed to reporters: "We have become different, we will not admit defeat easily, this is a series, and this is also the charm of the playoffs."

Rose is very young, and being young has its advantages, but he will not easily admit defeat! !

It was very stressful for Ross to meet Lin Rui, but this kind of pressure also constantly promoted his growth!

Rose went on to say: "I will take responsibility for the loss in the last game. I didn't defend well. I will continue to improve."

Noah said in an interview with reporters: "All of us should do our best to win the game, do everything from the details, and start from the first round."

Noah is very dissatisfied with the public opinion that the outside world is infinitely optimistic about the Knicks and completely ignores the Bulls.

Noah also hopes to gain more recognition and respect.

After the start of the g2 game, the Bulls showed their tenacity. They flanked Lin Rui from the beginning, causing Lin Rui to encounter physical confrontation from the beginning of receiving the ball.

In order to make Lin Rui uncomfortable, the Bulls made a lot of tricks.

The rhythm of the Knicks team was indeed destroyed.

Lin Rui got his second foul after half a quarter and was forced to end.

Lin Rui's two fouls were both offensive fouls, one was charging, and the other was pushing the defender away with his arm when he was annoyed by the opponent.

The referee obviously paid more attention to Lin Rui.

Without Lin Rui on the court, the Knicks' offensive efficiency has obviously dropped, but it is not so easy for the Bulls to gain an advantage.

The Knicks have been playing inside, and they took a slight lead to end the first half.

In the second half of the game, Lin Rui adjusted his rhythm.

The Bulls are still targeting Lin Rui up and down, and continue to confront Lin Rui.

Lin Rui started his foul-making skills and continued to stand on the free throw line.

The Knicks' offensive couldn't come out, but the lead was still on the Knicks' side.

There are 3 minutes and 11 seconds left in the third quarter.

Lin Rui held the ball across the half.

Rose came over to defend. At this time, Rose was carrying 5 fouls.

He didn't dare to foul anymore.

Lin Rui signaled to pull away, he was going to play singles.

Lin Rui has encountered various defenses, and he will not worry about the outcome of the game.

The Bulls frequently destroy the Knicks' rhythm in this way, but they are actually destroying their rhythm.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Lin Rui faced Ross with two consecutive major changes of direction.

Rose closely followed Lin Rui's rhythm.

But it was still occupied by Lin Rui, who was on the right side of Ross.

Lin Rui passed by.

Lin Rui did not hit the basket, but chose to brake suddenly!

"boom!"

Lin Rui stopped abruptly and collided with Ross.

Lin Rui shot!

"Shh!"

"Beep!!"

Two plus one! !

Lin Rui used this foul to get Ross off the field in the third quarter.

Next, Lin Rui used the same foul method to beat Ben Gordon.

There are no surprises.

In the fourth quarter, the Bulls' two outsiders were absent, and the game was not garbage time.

Lin Rui led the team on the field!

Lin Rui led the Knicks to a score of 38 to 18 in a single quarter! !

In the end, the score of the game was fixed at 93 to 123.

The Bulls played much better than the last game. They lost 30 points, not as much as 40 points.

Statistics.

The Bulls played an ugly game, and then it was tragic! !

The series was 2-0 with the Knicks leading.

........

Barkley said: "We shouldn't ignore the Bulls' efforts to win. This is an attempt. They are trying to beat the Knicks in different ways."

Smith laughed: "At least they can't beat the Knicks this way of playing."

Barkley said: "The number of fouls in this game has set a playoff record."

Smith said: "Haha, indeed, this is a boring game!"

...........

"This game is so inky."

"The Bulls fouled a lot."

"That's not going to stop the Knicks."

"Lin Rui hit a real fire in the last quarter."

"Bulls expected to be swept!"

Fans are also talking about the process of this game.
