Jordan: I thought he was there to help me!

Chapter 580 What is it like for Lord Lin to take you to see the night in New York?

Chapter 580: Lord Lin will take you to see what the night in New York is like!

"I don't have much to say about this timeout," Don Nelson said to the team. "It's just that tonight's game is really rare, I'm very happy, and I want to call a timeout to have a laugh for a while."

"And, in my team, if any of you dare to play like that, I guarantee you'll be fired the very next day!"

"You should be able to distinguish between becoming a laughing stock yourself and watching others become laughing stocks, right? Very good! You all understand, right? Then you can go up and compete now."

With only 20 seconds left in the game, the Knicks were still leading by 5 points and had possession of the ball. The Spurs had virtually no chance of a comeback. In the next few seconds, the Knicks inbounded the ball, and Lin Tian was fouled and easily made both free throws.

他今晚的数据也来到了44分15篮板13助攻3抢断2盖帽的级别！

As for what happened next, the Spurs basically gave up. The ball came to Bibby's hands, and he missed a nearly desperate three-pointer. Stoudemire grabbed the rebound and didn't attack again. The Spurs didn't foul again either, and time just ran out.

It was another amazing Christmas Eve, and Lin Tian once again gave all the Knicks fans who support him a wonderful Christmas gift!

In addition to Lin Tian's 40+ point triple-double, the Knicks' Stoudemire scored 27 points and grabbed 8 rebounds, while Anthony added 31 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists. The three firepower duo once again combined for 102 points! Their reputation as the league's most insane trio is growing ever stronger!

而马刺队那边，詹姆斯拿下31分10篮板12助攻的漂亮数据，麦迪靠着第二节和第四节两个末尾的爆法轰下全队最高的39分4篮板4助攻，马刺双星也是一样联手拿下70分！

Their offensive firepower was not to be underestimated, and even in the last few seconds, they still had a chance to turn the tide and force a comeback. Unfortunately, McGrady's mistake and James' dunk completely cost the Spurs the chance to turn the game around.

"Hey LeBron, remember when I said if you guys could keep the score within 10 points, I'd take you guys to see what a night in New York is like? How about it? Want to come? I'll show you!"

"You guys only won today because of luck, Lin! See you in San Antonio!" James didn't answer Lin Tian's question, but instead chose to deliver a harsh statement first: "It'll be different in San Antonio! The referees won't be on your side anymore!"

"We'll see!"

"We'll see." Lin Tian shrugged, too lazy to pay attention to James's inexplicable harsh words, which made it sound like the Knicks had gotten a huge advantage.

Once we get to San Antonio, I'll beat you up!

Lin Tian waved his hand, "Since we've come this far, let's call it a night."

He's not the type to be cold and insincere, nor is he the type to forcefully drag people out to play.

I heard that Kidd is the one who likes to do this kind of thing?

"Lin, do you think that place has internet?" Lin Tian had already turned around when James suddenly called out to him, "I want to go check it out. Are Melo and the others going too?"

Good heavens! Mr. Lin exclaimed, "Good heavens!"

Making threats is making threats, a competition is a competition, and life is life, right?

"The internet connection might not be great, and the place is quite high up, but you definitely won't be disappointed! Some people say it's the most beautiful night in all of New York!" Lin Tian patted James on the shoulder and said, "I'll send you the address later."

After Lin Tian finished speaking, he turned and left.

He still has to attend press conferences, take a shower, and go home to sleep!

Hmm... I'm going home to sleep!

However, Lin Tian did not expect that after attending the press conference and chatting with the reporters for a while, he strolled back to the dressing room. He originally thought that everyone had either left or were almost ready to leave.

But who knew that he would be surrounded by Stoudemire and Anthony as soon as he entered the locker room.

"Lin, we're buddies!"

"We're teammates!"

"I've always had a brotherly feeling for you!"

"You're like my own brother!"

"Father!"

"Stop, stop, stop!" Lin Tian quickly reached out to stop the group. If he didn't stop them, Smith was about to kneel down and kiss Lin Tian's fingers.

That's disgusting.

"What are you doing? Even if you're borrowing money, you can't come in a group, can you?" Lin Tian really had no idea what kind of trouble these bastards were up to this time.

"Lin, weren't you going to take LeBron to the best places in New York?" Anthony said shamelessly.

"Let's go too," Xiao Si said, rubbing his hands together.

"Amaree said he'd treat us!" Barnes chimed in from the sidelines. This guy was basically on a minimum wage and was pretty poor.

"When did I say I was going to take him to the best place?" Lin Tian asked, puzzled.

"We heard what you said on the field!" Upon hearing this, the group immediately became anxious. You can't just bring outsiders and not us!

Everyone knows you, Mr. Lin, are the god of New York nightclubs, knowing all the fun places. The place you call the best must be extraordinary!

"I didn't say that. Think again, what did I actually say to him?"

"Should we take him to see the place that best represents a New York night?"

"Let him experience the glamour of New York?"

"We love this! Let's go!"

Seeing how expectant this group of people was, Lin Tian could only say helplessly, "You said it, but I still suggest you don't go; it might not suit your tastes."

"That place is more suitable for country bumpkins from small towns."

"I'm just a country bumpkin!" Anthony, who grew up in New York, chuckled shamelessly.

Lin Tian shook his head helplessly. What could he do after Anthony said that? He picked up his phone and typed away for a while, then waved it and said, "I've sent you the address, Melo. You take everyone there. I have other things to do."

"Have you made all the arrangements, Lin? Should we give you your name when we go?"

"No need, there's no need to make any arrangements here, and you don't need to give your name. You'll find out when you get there." Lin Tian waved his hand, indicating that they could leave. He still needed to take a shower and change clothes. Hmm, he'd like to get some physiotherapy to relax his muscles later, and if he could sleep, he'd take a nap.

Lin Tian, ​​who was without family and did not celebrate Christmas, was destined to be very relaxed that night.

About an hour later, Lin Tian's phone started ringing incessantly, one after another, with the screen constantly lighting up.

Unfortunately, Lin Tian was currently sleeping soundly with the physiotherapist. He had just finished his treatment and was extremely relaxed.

The camera then shifts to the address Lin Tian provided at this moment.

It was the rooftop of a very tall building. Although it wasn't completely dark, there were lights on.

But it was incredibly quiet here; apart from a few telescopes, there were no other projects.

Although there are no entertainment options, you can get a panoramic view of almost the entire city of New York from here!

The gently flowing Hudson River, the magnificent Atlantic Ocean, the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building—symbols of the entire United States…

The entire New York City skyline unfolded before everyone's eyes, and each person could see the world's most vibrant and breathtaking night view!

If any of these guys were photography enthusiasts, they would definitely thank Lin Tian for finding them a place where they could enjoy such a comprehensive view of the New York nightscape.

Unfortunately, even if all of these people were combined, they probably wouldn't be able to handle a single DSLR camera properly.

Photography? Night views? Experiencing the ultimate prosperity created by human power?

Feel sorry!

These people just wanted to release their hormones and experience the most extreme human desires and impulses.

What they felt was not the prosperity of humanity or the prosperity of New York City's more than 100-year history.

They only felt the cold winds of the Atlantic Ocean.

He's freezing to death.

run run run!

As for Lin Tian?

He's awake now, and regarding the dozens of missed calls on his phone, Lin Tian says he has a clear conscience.

They originally only wanted to mess with LeBron James, but who knew these guys would eagerly go and keep him company in the cold wind.

Lord Lin didn't force you!

However, Lin Tian underestimated the chain reaction and powerful appeal brought about by his title as the trendsetter of the nightclub alliance and the king of New York's late-night scene.

Especially when Lin Tian learned during the Knicks' practice the next day that almost everyone from the Spurs team had appeared on the roof of that building, and even Don Nelson had miraculously shown up there, Lin Tian realized that he was now burdened by his fame.

Their appeal is incredible!

I won't dare to play like that again. Even if I really have to play like that, I have to communicate with Old Nelson beforehand.

Other young men don't care; they're strong and healthy, so catching a cold is no big deal for them.

But the old man is getting on in years. If he were to suffer a stroke or cerebral hemorrhage because of this thing and become bedridden, Lin Tian would be in deep trouble.

Let's pack it up.

What surprised Lin Tian even more was that McGrady also went.

Didn't this guy almost get into a fight with LeBron James yesterday?

Even after the game ended, this guy spread his hands and asked LeBron James, "You've never dunked in your life, have you?"

How come you made up so quickly and went to the rooftop to enjoy the breeze?

My Lin, the great official, was known back in the day as the team-breaking master, able to dismantle a team in a single series.

How did things turn out like this? Today, I'm actually acting as a confidant, easing tensions.

No, we absolutely can't do this again. If all those teams with internal conflicts reconcile because of this, Lin Tian will feel bad.

If you can't get along, don't force it; if you should disband, then disband quickly.

wrong!

Lin Tian quickly realized that if these two guys made up, wouldn't they unite and hate him for beating them in the competition and tricking them into going to the rooftop to get some fresh air in the middle of the night?

Although I'm not afraid, this is clearly not a good sign!

I regret it so much!

Those two shouldn't have been given a chance to make up!

Lin Tian made up his mind that from now on he would just be his own nightclub king and never cause any more trouble.

Also, from now on, whenever we arrange for an opponent to play, we'll only arrange half of their people! As for which half? Hehe.

Lin Da Guanren has plenty of ways to cause another bloody storm within the opposing team.

The main point is that dismantling the team is the most fun!

Regardless of what Lin Tian's incredibly filthy mind was thinking, this dramatic and exciting Christmas battle naturally became the most talked-about match in the league these past few days.

Besides Lin Tian's yet another 40+ point triple-double, could the Spurs have turned the game around if McGrady hadn't been stripped of the ball? And could the Spurs have won if James hadn't driven in for a dunk but instead taken a three-pointer?

Of course, there's also the question of what kind of team can defeat a fully-powered Knicks team when both of their star players are playing at their best.

Is it only possible to defeat them when they are in a bad mood, out of form, or mentally exhausted?

The entire Knicks team: Yes! That's exactly it!

After winning the Christmas Day game, the Knicks were on a roll and didn't lose a single game throughout December. They continued their winning streak until the end of the month, and Lin Tian won the Eastern Conference Player of the Month award for the second consecutive month with his triple-double average.

Meanwhile, he continues to dominate the MVP rankings this season! From the first time the list was published until now, Lin Tian has never stepped down from the top spot, not even once, and has never moved even once.

With his current momentum and the Knicks' record, the MVP award this year is already a foregone conclusion!

Yes, right now everyone has only two opinions about this year's MVP.

1. As long as Lin Tian and the Knicks don't experience any drastic drop in both their stats and record, he will definitely become the MVP!

2. Even if Lin Tian and the Knicks' record plummets, he can still win the MVP!

Currently, both of these viewpoints are worth discussing.

There's no way around it, his performance in the first two months was just too good! He textbook-perfectly balanced top-tier NBA statistics with his team's top record!

As time goes by, the Knicks will certainly not have an endless winning streak, but they have always managed to keep their ranking at number one in the league!

Once they secured the top spot in the league, the Knicks made it all the way to the All-Star Game!

As of the All-Star break on February 14th, the Knicks had a record of 41 wins and 9 losses, firmly holding the top spot in the league. The closest team to them was the Suns in the Western Conference, but the Suns only had a record of 38 wins and 13 losses, four games behind the Knicks.

With about half the season left, unless something completely unpredictable happens, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Knicks have already secured the top seed in the league!

Their offensive performance this year has been truly unparalleled!

Meanwhile, with the start of the All-Star Game, Lin Tian, ​​Stoudemire, and Anthony were selected for the All-Star Game again. The only regret was that Anthony still failed to become an All-Star starter.

"Next year!" After the All-Star roster was announced, Lin Tian patted Anthony on the shoulder and said, "I guarantee you'll be an All-Star starter next year!"

In addition to the three players being selected for the All-Star Game, Lin Tian once again declined invitations to various individual competitions in the league, and Amar'e Stoudemire, who won the Slam Dunk Contest last year, also declined the invitations.

Although both of them declined the invitation to the individual competition, the Knicks are anything but idle this year.

In addition to the three players participating in the main competition, Smith and Robinson both accepted invitations to the league's Slam Dunk Contest and will compete.

In addition, although veteran Houston's average points per game have dropped below 10, his shooting accuracy has not declined at all. He still has a 43% three-point shooting percentage this season. As the Knicks' player with the highest three-point shooting percentage, he also participated in this year's Three-Point Contest.

In addition, Smith and Robinson will represent the first and second year students respectively in the Rookie Challenge!

The Knicks team is really busy at this year's All-Star Game!

It's also worth mentioning that this year it's not just the Knicks players who will be busy; the entire league and players from all walks of life will be extremely busy.

Because of Hurricane Katrina!

This force of nature, which is beyond human control and resistance, swept through New Orleans last August, displacing countless residents and causing immeasurable losses and suffering throughout the city.

The Hornets, who had just moved here, also had to relocate to Oklahoma, not far from New Orleans, because the arena was destroyed. They will have to play in Oklahoma for at least two years before they can possibly return to New Orleans.

Besides the All-Star Game itself, the most important part of this year's All-Star Game was to show solidarity with New Orleans, which was devastated by the hurricane, and to allow players to raise funds through various methods and community events.

Firstly, it helps New Orleans rebuild, and secondly, it continues to strengthen the brand power of the NBA.

Of course, Lin Tian was completely uninterested in this.

I'm willing to contribute money, since it's all about making more money anyway, but what about contributing labor?

Let's avoid it if possible.

They're not family or relatives, so verbal concern is enough.

Considering how troublesome and tiring this All-Star event is, Lin Tian really wants to run away.

He even actually asked Stern for leave, saying he was injured and couldn't play in the All-Star Game.

Unexpectedly, Stern, that old fox, seemed to have anticipated this scene, and immediately expressed his excitement: "That's great, Lin! In that case, you don't need to worry about the All-Star game."

"But we'll be leaving all our large community services to you. Also, you don't need to be there on the night of the game. Just go to New Orleans. We've prepared large TVs and events at nursing homes and several relief centers there."

"If you could go there and watch the All-Star Game with the people in the disaster area, it would be a huge boost to our league's reputation! I was worried about how to ask you if you wanted to play in the All-Star Game, but now that you can't, it's wonderful!"

it is good?

That's bullshit.

Lin Tian said, "You're stronger this time, you won this time, but I'll trick you again next time!"

I guess I'll just have to go play in the All-Star game.
