NBA Opening Draw To Twilight Shaquille O’Neal: Chapter 182 old cowboy
Chapter 186 Cowboy is old
Back in the third quarter, as Lillard continued to break out, the game lost its gimmick and the suspense of the outcome.
At the end of the first three quarters, the Blazers led the Clippers by 22 points at 87:65.
In the fourth quarter, the Clippers coach did not plan to make a final struggle. When the main lineup was sitting on the bench, he announced his surrender to the Blazers!
In the 3rd minute of the last quarter, the Blazers called for a timeout.
"Damien, do you still want to fight?"
Blazers coach Terry Stotts asked.
As of now, Lillard has played the first three quarters of the game, plus the 3 points in the final quarter to score 49 points.
A new career high!
According to Lillard's explosive trend tonight, if he continues to play, 50 points is a certainty, and 60 points is not impossible.
"No!"
Lillard didn't hesitate and gave the answer quickly.
Rubbish time scoring is not in line with his character, let alone such behavior.
"OK."
Terry Stotts nodded.
Since then, Lillard has not played again.
In the end, the Blazers won the game 115:88, beating the Clippers by as many as 27 points, achieving a double kill for the Clippers.
Lillard's personal data stayed at 49 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists, enough to blow a lifetime of large quasi-triple-doubles.
Of course, everyone knows that Lillard's time has just begun, and his future is destined to be brilliant.
After the and Clippers game, the Blazers have only one last game left in January, at home against the Dallas Mavericks.
After the post-game press conference, the Blazers returned to Portland non-stop, seized the two-day rest period and adjusted themselves.
As Lillard slept on the plane, his name began to take the league by storm.
45 points in three quarters, 4 points in the last quarter, and 49 points in the whole game... It has become a topic that is destined to be irresistible tonight.
"Another Jennings? No, his name is Damien Lillard!"
Sports Illustrated, one of the mainstream media in the United States, highly praised Lillard's outstanding performance in bowling.
For comparison, of course, is Jennings in the game that led the Bucks to defeat the Warriors on November 14, 2009.
That night Jennings made 21 of 34 shots, including 7 of 8 three-pointers, 6 of 8 free throws, and scored 55 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Super data.
Since 1963, there have been 6 times in NBA history that a rookie has played a 50+ game in a single game... Not including Michael Jordan.
Today, Lillard's 49 points in a game ranks seventh in NBA history for rookies in a single game.
However, the legend of this game can be no worse than the previous 6, or even slightly better.
15 of 25 shots, 9 of 13 three-pointers, 10 of 11 free throws, and a shooting percentage of 60%.
Among them, the true shooting percentage is more than 80%!
The so-called true shooting percentage is often an important reference to measure the efficiency of the player's shooting into scoring. Lillard's super efficiency has been paid attention to by scouts and general managers of many teams.
If Lillard has attracted a lot of attention, the most affected is most likely Wang Zelin of the same team.
There is no other reason, Lillard is too embarrassed in this game tonight.
Although it is impossible to say that it will reverse Wang Zelin's dominance of the Rookie of the Year in one fell swoop, it is likely to affect whether Wang Zelin can be elected as the Rookie of the Year by unanimous votes.
It should be noted that the unanimous election of the Rookie of the Year is also a supreme honor. Before that, there were only three unanimously elected Rookie of the Year players in NBA history.
In the original history, after Lillard became the 4th player in NBA history to be unanimously elected Rookie of the Year, it aroused great attention and expectations. Many people even agreed that Lillard would be the future. The league's first point guard.
It was just that no one thought that a super dunker in the Bay Area would be born, and he would take the same position players of his generation to death.
In addition to winning the best team of the year in the 2017~2018 season, Lillard pulled back a little bit. Against the background, Lillard's "NBA version of Zhou Yu!"
…
"The battle for the best rookie, rekindled!"
"Damian Lillard is definitely eligible for Rookie of the Year!"
"Another ray of light at the same time!"
“…”
"Sit up in shock while dying, the enemy is actually in my team!"
In the morning in Portland, Wang Zelin was reading the news on his mobile phone while eating breakfast.
Watching the unified-caliber news, Wang Zelin suddenly felt that something was wrong.
He always felt that the local media in the United States couldn't wait to present a young player who could compete with him for the Rookie of the Year.
You can't see me like that!
After thinking for a while, Wang Zelin quickly realized the intention.
The United States is known as the basketball kingdom, and it has a monopoly on the sport of basketball. It has been more than half a century since the birth of the NBA, which represents the highest hall of basketball.
The NBA's Rookie of the Year award represents an outstanding player among the new generation of players. More than 99% of the winners of this award every year are won by local players in the United States, and only a handful of them have won the best rookie as a foreign player.
Since the 21st century, there is only one Spaniard.
Now Wang Zelin is very likely to become the second foreign player to win the Rookie of the Year.
Although Jews have been vigorously promoting the internationalization of the NBA, thereby expanding the influence of the NBA, this does not affect the premise of the monopoly of the United States in the sport of basketball.
Originally.
Even some of the jumping clowns have to admit that the 2012 Rookie of the Year is undoubtedly owned by Wang Zelin, and almost no second player in the same class can be competitive enough for him.
The much-anticipated and anticipated "Son of America" Anthony Davis' data is a lot worse than Wang Zelin's. Just as everyone was desperate, another American player stood up.
The sixth pick of the 2012 NBA draft - Damien Lillard!
Relying on a wave of 49 points in a single game, Lillard's scoring average exceeded 18 points per game. In the case of other good data, some media began to render the situation of two heroes competing for hegemony.
Of course, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lillard is obviously not competitive with Wang Zelin, and even has a natural disadvantage.
The most feared thing between people is comparison!
Not to mention the comparison between players on the same team, the status of the Blazers in the team is high and low, and anyone with a heart can see at a glance.
There is one who pretends to be confused, that is another discussion.
For example, some unscrupulous media, all they need is pure clicks, and nothing else matters.
What's more, there are some "racial discriminators" among them. They are excited and full of motivation only when they think that what they have done can disgust Wang Zelin.
After finishing the news and eating breakfast, Wang Zelin went to the arena to continue training.
It has nothing to do with the public opinion of the outside world!
What he has to do, or the best he can do, is to use his unparalleled strength on the field to sweep away all criticism.
The offensive ability of the "Kidney Fighter" gold card has long been absorbed, and the defensive ability is almost inherited.
Wang Zelin has a hunch that soon after the All-Star Game, he is likely to unlock the next player card.
glanced at the current fan value: 78.78 million... These days are getting more and more promising.
On 30, the Blazers played at home against the Dallas Mavericks, who were also the western team.
The Mavericks are currently 10th in the Western Conference with a 21-22 record.
It is hard for people to imagine that last year's defending champion fell so fast.
However, looking back at the time of the finalists, the average data of this season, everyone seems to have been explained.
17 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists... Dirk Nowitzki's average per game fell to a new low since his rookie season.
It's been almost half a season now, and Dirk Nowitzki's season-high score is only 22 points.
To know that Dirk Nowitzki averaged 21.6 points per game last season.
German tanks are getting old too!
This is the unanimous view of the outside world on the boss of the Dallas Mavericks.
Why do you say yes?
The reason is very simple, the Mavericks, Mosaic and Spurs are the former top three in Texas.
First of all, the Mosaic team. The Yao Mai era has long passed, and the team leaders have already changed.
As for the Spurs.
Since the second decade of the 21st century, most basketball commentators and fans have talked about "Spurs are old!"
Although Wang Zelin knew that this was just an illusion, the outside world did not think so.
Don't look at the Spurs' current record in the top three in the league, but they still can't change the old image of the GDP combination in the hearts of everyone.
It didn't take long for the Black Eight to happen!
The last Mavericks were not overlooked, Dirk Nowitzki is really old.
Next season's average of 21 points per game will be the last respite of the King of Connaught, and then it will be completely cool.
In the evening, the Rose Garden Arena welcomed the Dallas Mavericks.
The Blazers belong to the Northwest Division, and the Mavericks belong to the Southwest Division. There are 4 regular season games to play in a year, and this is the second game.
The performance of the old driver continued to decline this season. Coach Terry Stotts didn't say anything in the locker room for tonight's game.
"Just play our normal level." He only made such a request.
This game is not broadcast live in the United States, but only in local areas, but there are still quite a lot of reporters present, and the bottom lines on both sides are full.
The two teams start the game.
Wang Zelin completely detonated the audience as soon as he appeared on the stage, and cheers and applause hit the Mavericks overwhelmingly.
There is no contradiction between the Blazers and the Mavericks. Wang Zelin still respects the old driver.
From a long-haired boy to a middle-aged uncle, the old driver used his 21 years of perseverance to achieve a beautiful fairy tale of one person, one city!
For the sake of one person, one city, the old driver took a salary cut of more than 100 million yuan for the Mavericks, making him the most loyal player in the NBA.
Of course, the team owner Cuban did not treat the former badly.
Although Wang Zelin doesn't have a cold for Cuban, he has to say that this buddy treats the players he recognizes well.
Under the attention of more than 20,000 people in the audience, Wang Zelin came to the Mavericks bench area and said hello to Dirk Nowitzki who was replenishing water.
"Dirk, let's go to Rose Paradise for a drink after the game!"
Wang Zelin winked.
"Cough cough..."
As a veteran who has been in the NBA all year round, Dirk Nowitzki knows the road conditions of other teams well. After all, he played less when he was young. It is no use to be an old driver.
"Man, you shouldn't be able to, right?"
"Hahaha!"
Wang Zelin shouted again, causing the fans behind the bench to burst into laughter.
"Rookie, you have to pay attention to the impact!"
The old driver was a little annoyed.
You can say things like this in private, why do you have to put them on the surface?
Am I shameless?
After chatting awkwardly for a few words, Wang Zelin waved his hand and turned to leave.
"Dirk, last time I was in Dallas, I really didn't see that the Chinese boy was so arrogant!"
Mavericks starting point guard Darren Collison looked at Wang Zelin's back and said curiously.
"I remembered, there is a saying in the Chinese Dynasty called "Do as the Romans do", maybe it was the old fritters in the Blazers who took him off."
"You know!"
Another veteran, Dante Jones, came over and said with a wretched expression.
"Hahaha……"
The Mavericks bench burst into laughter.
This season, the Mavericks have little hope of entering the playoffs, so everyone's mentality is very good.
What's more, except for OJ Mayo and Darren Collison who are slightly younger, the rest of the Mavericks, such as veteran drivers, Sean Marion, Vince Carter, Elton Brand, etc., are all veterans in their early 30s.
The mentality is not good!
Wang Zelin's opponent tonight is fellow player Bennard James.
After being selected by the Cleveland Cavaliers with the 33rd overall pick in the second round, this guy was traded to the Dallas Mavericks for a 2-meter-08-meter homegrown center.
has obvious advantages, good physical fitness, excellent wingspan, and is not afraid of confrontation, and has the potential to become a good blue-collar player.
The shortcomings of are more obvious. There is no stable offensive ability. The low attack and jumper are almost equal to 0. The score depends on eating cakes and secondary attacks.
Under the focus of the Mavericks, he only achieved 4 points and 5 rebounds. Now the team management has abandoned him, and his playing time has been reduced to less than 20 minutes at the beginning of the season.
The game started, Wang Zelin and Bennard James jumped the ball.
"Heavenly boy, you're just an ordinary player, if it wasn't for your yellow skin..."
What Wang Zelin didn't expect was that this little character who couldn't be named actually dared to provoke him.
"Dirk, has your little brother No. 5 always been so brave?"
Wang Zelin called out to Dirk Nowitzki not far away, not even Benard James.
“…”
The old driver looked over with a confused expression.
What happened to the kidneys?
At this time~www.mtlnovel.com~ the basketball flew high, Wang Zelin took off, "Crack!"
Lillard received the ball and advanced, and Batum on the left was a wild horse and went head to head.
Squeezed Darren Collison away, Lillard notified the basket, like an eye in the back of his head, and threw the net into the sky.
Batum was about to take off, but soon stopped...it was Wang Zelin.
Wang Zelin, who weighs 130 kilograms, is extremely scary to run, and his speed is no worse than that of Bennard James.
For a mere 104kg Bennard James, Wang Zelin is simply a prehistoric beast. He easily squeezed it aside, then took off and grabbed the basketball that rose to an appropriate height with both hands.
"Boom!"
Wang Zelin made a crit at the start, and the Mavericks' basket made a miserable hobby.
I didn't have time to review it, the typo was just corrected, and the book friends who subscribed before will be updated for the second time.
Goodnight everybody!
