I really play basketball

Chapter 130 The end of the 93-94 season
(The ending of Chapter 126 has been changed, you can go back and read it again)
After the game, Barkley looked complicated.

Because Jordan retired, he thought this was his season.

But from the very beginning, or in other words, from the time he met Lin Xing, he has had a bad season this season.

The two nonsense not only cast a shadow over his mind, but also missed the regular season for more than two months.

The Sun's regular season record is so bad that it only ranks sixth in the Western Conference, which is not unrelated to his absence for more than two months.

If the Suns are not sixth, they will not meet the Warriors in the first round.

The result of meeting the Warriors in the first round was that in this season that belonged to him, he was out in the first round.

"Are you here to show off your victory, Star?"

Seeing Lin Xing approaching from a distance, Buckley shook his head and said sourly.

"No, Charles, it's just a first-round playoff win..."

Lin Xing shook his head, and when Versailles said something, Barkley became even more sour.

But acid is useless, he has already gone fishing, Lin Xing went to the next round.

The Oakland Stadium is still cheering. The fans watching the game are so excited.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Warriors won this game.

The Warriors celebrated their victory, they didn't care how the game was won, they just knew they won.

But Phoenix, Phoenix's local TV station, commentators have been questioning the game's penalty.

"Sta's double-retreat three-pointer is obviously a walk, but the referee favored him, and the referee's favoritism caused us to lose the game!"

In fact, not only Phoenix's commentary, but also many media reporters, experts, ball critics, and even the head coach of the Suns, Paul Westphal...

The moment the game ended, their doubts were raised.

"That's walking, but the league needs to make stars, and the referees shielded him."

Paul Westphal, who lost the game, was speechless.

What's even more outrageous is the special post-match program on NBC TV. Several Lin Hei experts gathered together and directly gave Lin Xing a new nickname-the King of Four Steps!

Why is it the king of four steps, not the king of five steps, not the king of six steps?

Because these experts watched the replay of Lin Xingshuang's three-point retreat, and counted Lin Xing's stealth into four steps.

But it doesn't matter if he took four steps or six steps, this Bo Linxing was Zhan Hua's success.

……

The Warriors won the five-game tiebreaker, but the controversy after the game blew up the screen.

This was also expected by Lin Xing. He has always been very clear that the problem with the double retreat is that it is too controversial.

Ordinary people will generally think that double withdrawal is walking.

If this were not the case, the double withdrawal move would not have been pioneered by the rule master Ji Shideng until the 21s.

But in fact, as long as the European step does not move, the double withdrawal step does not move.

For these controversies from the outside world, Lin Xing chose to ignore them.

He won't argue about anything, double withdrawal really doesn't move.

Because he knew that even if it was to prove his innocence, the alliance would stand up.

Sure enough, at noon on the second day of the game, Ronnie Nuoen, the head referee of the league's disciplinary committee, accepted an interview with NBC TV to explain Lin Xing's double retreat.

"To judge whether a player walks or not, you only need to see how many steps he takes after catching the ball. If it is two steps, it is not a walk. If it exceeds two steps, it must be a walk."

"I have read a lot of dismantlings by football critics about the double retreat of Stalin University. What I want to say is that we don't need to dismantle it in such detail. We only need to understand how the whole action is made."

"At first glance, it seems that Stadt took 1, 2, 3 steps, but in fact it was 0, 1, 2. Before he completed the ball, his left and right feet had already walked out of the rhythm of steps 0 and 1 in advance. This is a set of coherent movements, which cannot be regarded as walking."

This long explanation can be regarded as clearing up Lin Xing's grievances.

Paul Westphal apologized immediately, and it is impossible not to apologize. The league's ticket has passed.

NBC TV is the official partner of the NBA. Before the league stands up, it doesn't matter how black they are.

But now, the alliance has stood up, they can still black Linxing, but they can't grasp the point of double retreat.

The alliance has endorsed it, so how can it be black?

Of course, there are still many people who are black, and even the alliance can't stop everyone's mouths.

But one thing is for sure, after the alliance endorses, the double retreat can be determined and definitely legal.

So what the naked eye can see is that on the second day of the game, in the Warriors' training hall, the teammates are practicing double retreats.

As the founder of this trick, Lin Xing became the judge.

On the training ground, Xiao Chong made a double retreat.

Lin Xing told him with certainty: "Let's go, Tim."

"Ah, walking? Don't you also walk like this?"

Xiao Chong spread his hands, expressing his doubts.

The onlookers were also very puzzled. With the same movement, how could Xiao Chong just walk?
Lin Xing was stunned for a while, mainly because he was thinking about how to explain to this group of teammates. After thinking for a long time, he didn't think of words.

I can only stand up and demonstrate a wave.

But after watching the ball demonstrated by Lin Xing, Xiao Chong still spread his hands: "That's right, you also retreat like this?"

Lin Xing sighed, it still needs to be disassembled!
He could only disassemble his actions, and told Xiaochong:
"Generally speaking, there are two methods of double retreat, one is clean, directly two retreat..."

Lin Xing demonstrated a clean one without stealing.

Then, Xiao Chong spread his hands: "This kind of non-walking, I know, but this kind of one is not strong enough."

To put it bluntly, there is not much difference between a double retreat without stealing a step and a single retreat.

"Don't worry, look at this again..."

Lin Xing demonstrated another double retreat with a stealth step. He took a stealth step and then stopped.

"Did you see, your Step1, in my case, is Step0, that's why my double retreat doesn't move, but your double retreat moves."

Xiao Chong was stunned for a while, this expression, it was impossible to understand it at first glance.

Lin Xing demonstrated again, but this time, he speeded up.

"You should understand it this time. When you join the ball, steal a step. In this way, the original Step 1 will become Step 0."

Xiao Chong's comprehension is still good, Lin Xing has disassembled to this point, he can't understand it.

"Oh, it turns out that's the case, I figured it out!"

Xiaochong let out a loud cry, then turned his head to see the madman and others who were still full of doubts.

He can only tell this group of teammates who haven't understood: "The key point is that you have to steal a step when you join the ball!"

Xiaochong understands that he understands, but after several attempts, he still walks more than does not walk.

"Gah, is it so difficult?"

Lin Xing shook his head: "Do you know how long I have practiced?"

Calculating with his fingers, Lin Xing practiced this set, starting from the first time he hit a single and took a step back three-pointer.

It has been a year now.

Of course, the proficiency in using it should be that he did it proficiently during the summer training last summer.

The difficulty is still very high. After all, in the previous life, after Ji Shideng developed this set, Curry's several attempts failed.

The primary school student didn't know he was walking, and even compared his chest with a 13, which meant that the league favored the number 13.

But in fact, his double retreat was just walking.

Even the founder Ji Shideng doesn't always walk. He walks occasionally when his feet are not clean.

It can only be said that the difficulty of this double retreat is still a bit high.

"Let's practice in slow motion first, Tim, with your sense of the ball, it will work."

The madman at the side also tried a few times, all walking. Hearing Lin Xing's words, he asked a few more questions:

"What about me, Sta?"

"You? Well, try it."

"..."

……

The matter of the double retreat also affected Chicago all the way.

Danzi stood on the basketball court, tried a few times, and then faced the bald white man beside him——

"This style of play is really not walking. It is said that some reporters have already called that kid an inventor?"

The bald white man nodded: "Great inventor, what other rule masters are there? Of course, the most common one is the four-step king."

"Four step king..."

Danzi shook his head, but couldn't help it anymore, went on the field with the ball, and played a double retreat.

"Do you see my four steps?"

The bald white man narrowed his eyes and frowned: "It should be... isn't it?"

"It shouldn't be, be sure."

Danzi was quite embarrassed, he thought his retreat was not walking.

The bald white man is just an agent, he understands basketball, but he doesn't understand it that much.

Seeing that Danzi was so sure, he could only nod: "Yes, yes, you are a standard double retreat, and you don't walk at all."

"Hey, wait for my next..."

Danzi smiled smugly, but he shut up halfway.

The bald white man is keenly aware of the key elements——

"Next? Next what?"

"No... nothing."

Danzi shook his head in a panic, touching the basketball with both hands, his eyes were distracted.

"Mike..."

"what happened?"

"If you have the idea of ​​coming back, you must tell me in advance."

"Don't worry, I will."

……

In any case, with the alliance's endorsement, the turmoil of Lin Xingshuang's retreat just subsided.

After the Warriors eliminated the Suns, they also set their sights on the second round of the playoffs.

Their opponent is that Black Seven has the Supersonic Nuggets.

Although the Nuggets' strength on paper is not strong, their black seven against the Supersonics is enough for the Warriors to increase their emphasis on this Nuggets.

G1, the home of the Warriors.

Before the game, Lin Xing received his best rookie trophy.

With this trophy, he led the team to a 17-point victory over the Nuggets.

A victory proved that the strength of the Nuggets is actually not that strong.

They can hit the supersonic speed at black seven, and they have hit the G-spot of the supersonic speed.

What's missing from the Sonics?Lack of tough players on the offensive end.

Whether it is Payton, Kemp, or Schramf, they all belong to Erxianqiao and can play, but not many.

An Uncle Mu, plus a pseudo defense formation, is enough to lock down this group of Erxianqiao attackers.

Therefore, once the Nuggets strictly guard against death, their violent offense will not work at critical moments.

On the contrary, the Nuggets, Rauf, Rafonso Ellis, and Reggie Williams are all crazy players.

When the wind comes up, that is the superstar level.

Reggie Williams has drawn two or three games, and Rafonso Ellis has also drawn two or three games. Coupled with the stable performance of Rauf and Uncle Mu, it is difficult for the Nuggets to think about black seven.

But against the Warriors, they don't have these advantages.

The main reason is that the Warriors have more attackers——

One-on-one, no one in the Nuggets can face Lin Xing;

Xiaochong is the ancestor of CrossOver, and his strength is the ability to go it alone;
Madman, the first step is also very fast. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is Xiaolin Xing.

The Nuggets only have one Uncle Mu, so they can't defend against the impact of so many people.

The Warriors played the familiar whirlwind and quarterback offense, and the Nuggets naturally couldn't stand it.

G1 was a big victory, G2 was still at home, and at the press conference before the game, Old Nelson won the best manager trophy.

Media Comments——"It deserves its name!"

In any case, the Warriors have succeeded in getting Lin Xing in a big deal.

From the lottery last season to the top three in the Western Conference this season, the progress is real.

This year's best manager, old Nelson really has no rivals.

But at the same time, the best coach was still taken away by Lenny Wilkens in the East.

The main reason is that the Eagles are the original team. They were brought to No. [-] in the East by Lenny Wilkens, and their gold content is much higher than that of Nelson.

With the trophy of the best manager, the Warriors at home beat the Nuggets again.

Just like that, the Warriors took another 2-0 lead...

But this time, in G3, even though they were at the Nuggets' home court, the Warriors still didn't give the Nuggets a chance.

It was still a quarterback attack like a storm, which directly blew up the Nuggets' defense.

"If this is the first round of the playoffs, we are leading 3-0, we would have already advanced."

Lin Xing just went through these words in his mind, saying that it was impossible for him to say it.

In G4, the Nuggets fought back and pulled back a victory.

However, in G5, back at home, the Warriors used another big victory to completely end the Nuggets.

"The dark horse journey of the Nuggets is over..."

"The Warriors advanced to the Western Conference Finals, and their opponent will be the Houston Rockets who also defeated the Jazz 4-1."

In this way, the Warriors reached the Western Conference Finals.

Considering that the opponent is the Rockets, everyone lacks confidence.

After all, compared to the Suns in the first round, the Supersonics who almost met in the second round, and the Nuggets who actually met, the Rockets' suppression of the Warriors is real.

This Rocket is too strong, not only stronger than Hakeem Olajuwon, but also stronger than the group of role players after Big Dream learned to pass the ball.

Of course, the more important thing is blood suppression.

The Warriors' interior line is too weak...

Insufficient confidence is due to lack of confidence, you still have to do it, and you can't be cowardly at all.

Absolutely can’t say anything about “success in the Western Conference finals”, as a person, you still have to have a dream.

With this dream, the Warriors and the Rockets played to the sixth game.

With a total score of 2 to 4, they lost this round of the Western Conference Finals and watched the Rockets reach the finals.

There is nothing to say about the four games lost, and Lin Xing's performance in the two games he won was mediocre.

The main reason is that the Rockets have also focused their defense on Lin Xing. Although the double retreat three-pointer is a sharp weapon, to put it bluntly, it is really not so easy to play in actual combat.

Even in G5 against the Suns, he made 12 of 4 three-pointers, and his shooting percentage was only 33.3%.

The Warriors can win two games, or Xiao Chong, Madman and Mullin broke out.

Losing the Western Conference Finals 2-4, Lin Xing ended his first playoff journey.

　Today is 4k words, because it took more time to change the ending of the previous chapter.

　　In fact, I think there is not much difference between being eliminated in the first round and being eliminated in the Western Conference Finals. After all, the Suns are very strong.

　　But there are many people who care about it, so let’s change it.
