Although the Knicks were behind, fans at Madison Garden Plaza were not booing the Knicks.

Everyone saw Lin Rui's efforts.

Lin Rui was gritting his teeth and helping the Knicks chase and score.

The Knicks' problem is not on the offensive end, but on their defensive end.

There are too many Celtic superstars.

"Lin scored 29 points in the first half. It is incredible for a rookie to get so many points from the Celtics. You know, the Celtics are a team famous for their defense. Even Kobe is difficult to score so easily in front of them."

"However, the difference between the two teams also shows the strength gap between the two teams, and the Knicks still need to strengthen to go further."

Barkley and Smith summarized the performance of the two teams in the first half.

In the locker room.

Thomas came to Lin Rui: "Lin, how to play in the second half?"

Thomas had tried his best. He could not think of a strategy to deal with the Celtics, so he took the initiative to discuss it with Lin Rui.

Lin Rui said: "It's enough to continue the offense like this. The defense needs to be strengthened. Rajon's long shots are not good. We let him go and then form a 5-defense and 4-defense as much as possible."

Lin Rui felt that his condition was great, even better than using [hot state] (primary). This is also because he was able to face the Celtics and still be close to 30 in the half. Lin Rui had the confidence to continue scoring like this in the second half.

But if you want to win, you have to score enough, and you have to defend.

Lin Rui continued: "We also cut off Rajon's passing route and encouraged his offense to end."

Rondo is not very famous now, and his flaws are not as obvious as they have just begun the season.

After thinking for a while and looking at the scout report, Thomas said, "Okay, let's do that."

The Knicks are a weak team for the Celtics now, and Lin Rui's passing ability is not bad, but it is much more difficult than before to pass efficiently in the face of the Celtics' defense.

It’s not that Lin Rui can’t pass it, but that even the teammates who pass it can’t make it.

The Celtics defended Lin Rui's teammates to the extreme.

Lin Rui also consumed a lot of physical energy in the first half, but Lin Rui, who had just added physical energy, was no longer afraid of such consumption.

Lin Rui didn't feel tired.

Coach Thomas took out the tactical board, signaled everyone to come, and re-emphasized offense and defense.

Lin Rui still handles the ball on the offensive end.

Everyone saw Lin Rui's efficiency, and Lin Rui was not a player who did not score. The Knicks players all understood Lin Rui's helpless situation.

If Lin Rui hadn't been so furious in the first half, they might have collapsed now.

As discussed with Lin Rui, the Knicks' strategy in the second half was to let Rondo go.

"Lin, don't work too hard, be careful not to get hurt." David Li patted Lin Rui on the shoulder when he left the locker room.

David Lee has always been a good big brother. He always cares more about Lin Rui's physical condition than other players, rather than keeping Lin Rui scored or sent a pass.

"Not hurt, don't worry." Lin Rui smiled.

In the second half, he will give the Celtics a good look.

The second half began quickly.

Both teams sent their starting lineups to fight.

Still the Knicks' ball rights.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

With the help of Randolph's cover, Lin Rui dribbled in and rushed in. Facing Garnett's assisted defense, Lin Rui made a throwing shot.

Lin Rui's breakthrough is easily related to the Celtics' defensive arrangement, and the Celtics continue their playing style in the last game.

64 to 52.

Although the Celtics encouraged Lin Rui to attack, they did not completely give up on defense.

At least Rondo and Garnett want to defend Lin Rui, but Garnett is very depressed every time he encounters Lin Rui who is protruding.

Lin Rui's offense took the initiative, and his defense was too passive. In addition to being fast, Lin Rui also had a good sense of rhythm, which caused great trouble to Garnett.

Celtic offense.

Rondo dribbled to the frontcourt and prepared to observe the defense.

Lin Rui quickly retreated two meters away, then shouted at Rondo: "You vote, I'm not careful."

This sentence is not very harmful, but it is extremely insulting.

"Hahaha!"

“Beautiful job!”

"Send it!"

The fans on the scene also saw Lin Rui's intention and directly called Rondo to shoot.

Rondo stopped the ball, and hesitated to look at the basket.

In other positions, when there are 5 defenses and 4 defenses, Rondo's organization is not easy to organize.

Rondo hesitated for a while and made a shot.

Now Rondo's shooting is indeed his fatal point, and the basketball's arc doesn't look like he can make it.

"box!"

Without any accidents, it hit the basket's neck directly.

Randolph took the rebound tightly.

Although Rondo was a little regretful, he didn't think there was any problem with taking action like this. He didn't believe that the Knicks would dare to let him go.

Rivers on the sidelines also frowned, and the Knicks seemed to have changed their defensive tactics.

Rondo's attack power is incomparable to Lin Rui.

Randolph gave the ball to Lin Rui.

Randolph's singles at low positions today are average, with a success rate of about half and half.

This half is also very high. You know, the Celtics' inside players are Garnett and Perkins.

One is the best defensive player in the past, and the other is the Meat Shield.

It's hard to deal with.

Lin Rui dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

Lin Rui could clearly feel that the defensive strength of the Celtics players was declining.

The three Celtics' Big Three also declined in the second half, and they were unable to maintain high intensity throughout the game.

Besides, this is just the regular season, and veterans are always unwilling to put in all their efforts in the regular season.

Rondo's single defense against Lin Rui on the outside.

Lin Rui changed directions in two consecutive times, and one [Swinging God] deceived Rondo again.

Rondo clearly prevented Lin Rui from breaking through on the right side, but still couldn't.

Lin Rui found a space for attack.

Facing Rondo's second pass, Lin Rui's [rear jump shot] outside the three-point line!

The basketball draws a wonderful arc!

"Swish!"

64 to 55.

The difference between the two teams is close to single digits.

Lin Rui found that when using skills continuously, the score will be more accurate.

This is equivalent to a combination punch.

Seeing Lin Rui's continuous scores, Rivers couldn't sit still.

He did not specifically emphasize letting Lin Rui go, but Lin Rui's score was even easier than in the first half.

In fact, it also shows that Rondo's defense is not bad, but it is still too difficult for Rondo to defend Lin Rui.

"You don't need to defend his breakthrough, you just need to limit his shooting." Garnett told Rondo over and explained.

"No problem." Rondo nodded.

Pierce also went over to Ray Allen and said: "His three-pointer is a bit different from yours."

"Well, he can shoot in the dribble, that's hard."

Pierce said: "This guy is hard to deal with in the future."

Ray Allen said seriously: "It will be difficult to deal with tonight."

The Celtics began to adjust their understanding of Lin Rui.
