NBA: The opening game gets a death entanglement
Chapter 050
D’Antoni finished the list of starters, and everyone looked at Lin Dong.
This is unexpected and expected.
Unexpectedly, it was because Lin Dong played four NBA games.
And it is still a lost draft from the development league.
It was not without such examples before, but like Lin Dong, he only played four games and became a starter, which is too few.
Unexpectedly, it is naturally because of Lin Dong’s continuous efficient performance.
Averaging the first team in points per game, steals and assists, is even more intimidating.
This wave of four consecutive victories, Lin Dong’s credit is definitely the first.
Therefore, Lin Dong was mentioned as the starter, and no one had any objections.
Lin Dong himself was also very indifferent.
He knew he would definitely start, but he wasn’t quite sure what D’Antoni had in mind.
“Nate, Lin Dong, Gallinari, the three of you, as long as there is an open opportunity, shoot decisively, don’t hesitate.”
“Even if it feels bad, you must insist, you don’t have a psychological burden.”
“I’ll take care of the rest.”
D’Antoni continued.
The team’s current lineup, to win against the Spurs, is a bit difficult.
But it’s not impossible.
Lin Dong has already given him four surprises, and maybe this surprise can continue.
Another reason why he put Nate in the starting XI was Lin Dong.
In these matches, Lin Dong played with Nate most of the time.
The efficiency is very good, but when paired with Duhon, there is no outstanding performance on the offensive end.
So, after all things considered, he decided to put Nate in the starting lineup.
“Okay, coach, I’ll definitely overdo my job and beat the Spurs’ old balls home!”
Nate was full of confidence and said in a strange tone, quite funny.
Many people at the scene were also amused, and the originally tense atmosphere eased a lot.
D’Antoni changed his serious expression just now, with a slightly mysterious smile on his face.
“Just said the competition, let me announce the good news!”
The players looked at each other.
“Good news? What’s the good news? ”
D’Antoni sold the pass for a while, and it took a while before he spoke.
“Just now the NBA officially announced last week’s Player of the Week, and Kobe was named Western Conference Player of the Week.”
Before he finished speaking, the players below began to stir.
“The coach said this, could it be that someone on our team also won the best of the week?”
“Possibly, we had four wins in a row last week, so who would it be?”
“I can’t remember the last time a player on our team won the best of the week.
“Last week, James’ numbers were very perverted, I still think it’s a little unlikely.”
Seeing the expressions of the players, D’Antoni also understood.
The last time the Knicks won the Player of the Week title was last January, when David Lee received the title.
After that, the team did not win the award.
Now, there are players in the team who have won this award again, which is a big deal.
“Yes, last week’s Eastern Conference Player of the Week was indeed on our team.”
“Actually, you can guess who it is, he played a very big role during the four-game winning streak.”
“The data side is also very bright.”
At this moment, the players are even more restless.
It’s kind of incredible that this week’s Player of the Week is actually on the Knicks.
Then everyone started guessing who it was.
Some people guess David Lee.
David Lee averaged 20.1 points and 11.3 rebounds last week, and he was the tactical core of the team.
Indifferently, some people also speculated that it was Lin Dong.
Lin Dong averaged 21.2 points, 5 steals and 3.5 blocks per game last week, and his statistics are more impressive than David Lee’s.
However, because Lin Dong was all substitutes last week.
In NBA history, there are also many substitute players who have won the title of best of the week.
So, everyone can’t guess.
David Li glanced at Lin Dong, although he was the main force and Lin Dong was the substitute.
But he thinks that his role last week was not as big as Lin Dong, and this award Lin Dong has more opportunities.
Seeing the heated discussion among the players, D’Antoni no longer hangs everyone’s appetite.
“This player is … Lin Dong! ”
“In four games last week, Lin Dong averaged 21.2 points, 2.5 assists, 2.7 rebounds, plus 5 steals and 3.5 blocks per game.”
“It’s 62 percent shooting and 45 percent three-pointers, which is very efficient.”
“I believe with his performance, this will not be the last, and this should be just the beginning!”
“Let’s congratulate Lin Dong!”
When D’Antoni introduced Lin Dong, his eyes were shining.
Although the title of Zhou Best has no practical effect.
But this is an affirmation of Lin Dong’s performance and the team’s performance.
It is also an affirmation of his vision.
This award will play a great role in Lin Dong’s personal confidence and the morale of the team.
As soon as the words fell, the scene broke into warm applause.
Nate heard the news as if he was even more excited than he had won the award.
He bumped Lin Dong with his shoulder.
“Brother, you’re awesome, you just came to the NBA and got the title of Player of the Week!”
Lin Dong himself was also excited, but at the same time there were some worries.
The other teams didn’t know themselves before, and they didn’t pay enough attention to themselves.
At this moment, if you don’t get it right, you will become the key defense object of the opposing team, and it will inevitably be targeted.
However, Lin Dong was not very worried, after all, this is an inevitable thing.
He is also confident that he will be able to cope with this.
“Thank you all! I will definitely work harder to help the team win the game! ”
Lin Dong stood up and thanked his teammates.
Seeing Lin Dong win the award, the other players also became excited.
This is just entering the NBA, they have all been in the NBA for many years, and they haven’t been yet.
There are red-eyed, excited, and jealous.
Harrington shook his head, showing disdain.
“What’s great, it’s a flash in the pan! Who hasn’t won the Player of the Week! ”
