I’m Really Playing Basketball - Chapter 870
14 of 14 shots, 8 of 8 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, 40 points in a single quarter.
Chen Xiao scored 40 points in a single quarter in the first quarter of the game between the Warriors and the Bucks, setting a new record for scoring in a single quarter in NBA history.
surpassed Warriors teammate Klay Thompson’s 37 points in a quarter.
Therefore, after Chen Xiao hit the buzzer-beating three-pointer in the first quarter, the live broadcast camera immediately focused on Klay Thompson in a suit on the sidelines.
And Klay Thompson stood up and applauded Chen Xiao immediately after Chen Xiao hit the buzzer-beating three-pointer in the first quarter.
Klay hasn’t played yet, but his body is almost recovered, and he has already started training with the team.
Under the circumstance that the Warriors are advancing so vigorously, if Klay makes a comeback and can maintain a good state and strength, it will definitely be a huge addition to the Warriors.
Of course, now everyone’s eyes are not on Clay, but on Chen Xiao.
A single quarter is 40 minutes!
This is 40 minutes in a single quarter!
And it was a 40-point single quarter against the Bucks, a historic team!
Let’s just put it this way, when the first quarter ended, the entire NBA, the entire world on the Internet, went crazy.
Regardless of whether it is the United States, China, or Europe, the news is all about Chen Xiao’s 40 points in a single quarter.
This is much scarier than the news when Klay scored 60 points in three quarters, 37 points in the fourth quarter, and 97 points in the audience.
After all, what kind of celebrity is Chen Xiao, and what kind of celebrity is Clay.
It is also a hat-trick. Messi’s hat-trick and Vasi’s hat-trick caused a sensation, which is not of the same level at all.
Of course, even the Internet exploded, not to mention the Warriors fans at the scene.
Let’s just put it this way, even Shifo Duncan on the sideline, when Chen Xiao hit the incredible three-point buzzer against Durant, had his eyes widened and his hands covered his head in incredible shock.
Well, if other people pretended to act and wanted to come to Duncan, it would be really shocking.
Therefore, Duncan’s former teammate and closest comrade-in-arms, the commentator Maizi and his commentator partner Chris Webber, had already rushed directly in front of Chen Xiao at this time.
And CCTV’s live commentary of this game, Xiao and Lao Su, had already choked up.
As for the two celebrity commentators from Penguin.com, Master Bi was so excited that he was speechless, and his trembling hands were already turning two pens.
And the whale next to him kept shouting: “Have roots! Have roots! Have roots!”
For a time, the whole world thought that Chen Xiao’s 40-point single quarter was a huge hurricane.
At the same time, almost immediately, the commentators who were broadcasting the match live all over the world were asking a question, that is, will Chen Xiao have a chance to break the single match maintained by teammate Klay in this match? A scoring record of 97 points.
Can Chen Xiao break the 100-point single-game record held by Chamberlain in the NBA regular season?
Chen Xiao has scored numbly in his career. He averaged 44 points per game in the season. As for 40 points, 50 points, 60 points, 70 points, and 80 points, there are also some, and more, that is really not there.
It’s not that Chen Xiao doesn’t have this ability, but for Chen Xiao’s style of play, if Chen Xiao gets 70+, most of the teams have collapsed. If Chen Xiao scored 80 points, any team has collapsed. .
And Chen Xiao is not a statistician. As long as the team wins, he doesn’t care about his stats at all.
Therefore, although Chen Xiao has the ability to break Chamberlain’s 100 points in a single game, Chen Xiao has never deliberately brushed it.
And this game is simply the right time and place.
Judging from the last strong shot of Durant, Chen Xiao’s feel and state of the game were simply explosive.
At the same time, judging from the score of 48-42 on both sides in the first quarter, the Bucks are really strong.
Chen Xiaodu scored 40 points from 100% shooting in a single quarter, but he was only ahead by 6 points.
Therefore, the Bucks, maybe they can really hold on until Chen Xiao gets 80+, or even 90+, and it doesn’t collapse.
At the same time, this game is a key battle for Chen Xiao and Antetokounmpo to compete for MVP. The entire Warriors team is creating scoring opportunities for Chen Xiao.
And Chen Xiao himself seems to want to play in this game.
In this case, this is not the right time and place, what is the right time and place?
In short, because of the 40 points in the first quarter, everyone’s expectations for Chen Xiao’s performance in this game have been full.
As the party concerned, Chen Xiao didn’t have so many ideas.
There is no winning streak in this game. Why do you think so much data?
This is not Chen Xiao’s style.
To be fair, in this game, the pressure on the Warriors and him is very high.
In this game, other Warriors teammates consciously reduced their shots in order to support his performance, which would affect their offensive state.
His teammates sacrificed for him. It is impossible for him to disappoint his teammates. His teammates sacrificed for you. If you cannot bring a victory to your teammates, Chen Xiao will be very disappointed.
Fortunately, Chen Xiao’s condition was really good in this match, but even if his condition was perfect to this extent, he still only led by 6 points in a single quarter.
Because in the first quarter, Durant, Curry, and Antetokounmpo also scored 36 points together.
In the first quarter, the performances of Durant, Curry and Antetokounmpo were also very explosive.
After all, according to the average score of the three people, generally speaking, the average score of the three people in a game is about 22 points.
But in this game, the three scored 36 points in the first quarter, and this was the case when Antetokounmpo had only played 7 minutes in the first quarter and was replaced to rest.
It can only be said that in this game, Durant, Curry and Antetokounmpo were also in very good form.
In the second quarter, Chen Xiao rested off the court, while Morant led the team on the court.
Morant, Alexander, Michael Porter Jr., Anthony, Marvin Bagley, these are the Warriors’ rotation players.
On the Bucks side, Jue Holiday, Grayson Allen, Wesley Matthews, Connaughton, Antetokounmpo.
The Bucks’ rotation has always been carried by Antetokounmpo and Holiday.
By the way, the rotation players on the Bucks side have a player who is very familiar with Marquette University, Wesley Matthews.
After the Cavaliers won the championship, Wesley Matthews did not choose to renew his contract with the Cavaliers.
Wesley Matthews, born in 1986, was one of the second generation of the Three Eagles.
Marquette University’s second-generation Three Eagles had two catches back then. The three Eagles were Durant, Curry, and Jordan.
As the core player of the second generation of Marquette University, Wesley Matthews chose to return to Milwaukee when he was 34 years old.
After all, at the age of 34, he can’t actually get such a big contract. He has made a lot of money in the Cavaliers for more than 10 years, which is enough.
Just right, there is still oil in the gas tank. Bringing this oil to his former college teammates Durant and Curry is the best choice for him.
Matthews, who returned to Milwaukee, performed well. He did not suffer from serious injuries in his career. He has been training hard and conscientiously beside James of the Cavaliers. Very good spot-up shooting ability.
When he was with the Cavaliers, next to Oden and James, he needed to have a strong spot-up shooting ability, and his shooting talent was also very good. When he was a sophomore, he could average 2 three-pointers per game, and his shooting percentage was good. At 41 percent, he’s been one of the Cavaliers’ most consistent shooters over the years.
In the playoffs last season, he also shot more than 40 percent from 3-point range with the Bucks.
It can be said that his style is very suitable for the rotation of the Bucks led by Antetokounmpo.
The Bucks’ current lineup has everyone except Antetokounmpo who can shoot, which will give Antetokounmpo a lot of room for breakthroughs.
That’s why Ray Allen and the Bucks have Antetokounmpo on the bench.
Even though Antetokounmpo is the super-giant with a substitute, in fact, his playing time is the least among the three.
Antetokounmpo averages only 31 minutes of playing time per game. The reason why Antetokounmpo’s playing time is so compressed is to protect him from injury and to hope that every minute he spends on the court can have enough physical strength.
Let’s just put it this way, Antetokounmpo’s style of play is very physically demanding and very prone to injury.
In this case, Ray Allen’s use of Antetokounmpo is a bit like the Heat’s use of Yao Ming.
Of course, although the two are used in different ways, there is still a difference in the time of use.
For the Heat against Yao Ming, it was used at a critical moment.
Because Yao Ming’s offensive ability at the critical moment is almost invincible, no one can defend.
But Antetokounmpo, after defending at a critical moment, was actually a little blind because he didn’t have a stable shot.
So, Ray Allen’s way of using it is to make Antetokounmpo attack wildly when he abuses vegetables.
Let’s just put it this way, Antetokounmpo’s style of play now and Zhan’s style of play in history are really very suitable for abuse.
As for the critical moment, isn’t there Durant and Curry?
Therefore, if the Bucks have to compare the Heat of the year, then Durant and Curry are the roles of Yao Ming, and Antetokounmpo is the role of Wade.
Of course, Wade wasn’t completely abusive back then, biting on the score.
And the current Durant and Curry are not entirely for the critical moment, they are also very useful when they bite the score.
So, Antetokounmpo’s rotation time is very interesting.
Play the first 7 minutes in the first quarter.
Play the first 7 minutes in the second quarter.
Play the first 7 minutes of the third quarter.
In the fourth quarter, play for the first 5 minutes, go down to rest for 3 minutes, and then come up and play for 4 minutes.
A game only lasts about 30 minutes.
Of course, overtime, or a frantic game, is a different game.
It can only be said that Antetokounmpo’s rotation method among the NBA’s super giants is really very interesting.
However, Antetokounmpo’s outstanding performance in this peculiar rotation method is indeed very amazing.
Let’s just say, in the rotation, Antetokounmpo, that’s really unstoppable!
When there are four players around who can open up space for him, Antetokounmpo is now one-on-one, and one person can really push five players!
In the past, Chen Xiao could lock him, but now Chen Xiao can’t lock him one-on-one.
It can only be said that the Bucks played too utilitarian, too powerful, and too efficient.
Almost no firepower of the Big Three was wasted.
Such a rotation will cover the firepower of the Big Three in a full, comprehensive and full output.
In fact, in terms of the thickness of the rotation, the Warriors are actually above the Bucks.
But after the second quarter of the rotation time, the Bucks and the Warriors were actually inseparable.
Even the Bucks, because of the invincible point of Antetokounmpo, even seem to be more stable and slightly stronger.
So, five minutes into the second quarter, before Chen Xiao came up, the score on the court was 62-58, and the Warriors’ lead changed from 6 points to 4 points.
Of course, the ball is in the hands of the Warriors.
In this short five minutes, Antetokounmpo made 3 of 4, 3 of 4 free throws, scored 9 points and 2 assists. This is really unstoppable.
Antetokounmpo’s outstanding performance made his opponents Anthony and Marvin Bagley quite upset.
However, especially Marvin Bagley, after Chen Xiao went down, he was the center of the main opponent Antetokounmpo, and he was really beaten by Antetokounmpo in the past few minutes.
He wants to play one-on-one with Antetokounmpo, but Antetokounmpo has no plans to play one-on-one with you. Suddenly Morant misplaced.
Pinch to pass the ball.
Kill all the way without attacking.
Marvin Barkley is really nowhere.
This is also the reason why Chen Xiao said that the Bucks’ current style of play is extremely utilitarian and extremely efficient.
Antetokounmpo is really like James in history. Do you want to play against me one-on-one? no way!
The king of pick-and-rolls, get to know it!
James used the pick-and-roll to dislocate.
Antetokounmpo, on the other hand, uses powerful off-ball movements to dislocate.
Therefore, Antetokounmpo looks more utilitarian and more efficient than James.
Pick-and-roll, you might not switch defenses anyway. If you don’t complete the switch, James will be blinded.
But with Antetokounmpo’s off-ball movement, can your big man run after Antetokounmpo?
I really can’t run.
Just like if O’Neal can move around without the ball on the offensive end, O’Neal’s strength can rise at least two grades.
A player who is as tall and strong as Antetokounmpo, who can move off the ball as well, handle the ball so well, finish at the rim so well, and see and pass the ball so well.
In fact, in the entire history, it is also a unique existence.
If it is said that the Antetokounmpo that Chen Xiao and the Warriors met in the finals before was still a little tender, then the current Antetokounmpo has really been trained to a complete body by Ray Allen.
So, as Chen Xiao’s MVP competitor, Antetokounmpo in these five minutes is really dazzling.
but!
As soon as the Warriors came up, Chen Xiao used Antetokounmpo’s method to reject the one-on-one singles with Antetokounmpo.
Instead, he grabbed Wesley Matthews without the ball, and after receiving the pass from Wiggins, Chen Xiao swayed his crotch, swayed the aged Wesley Matthews, and stepped back. Three-point dry pull out!
A swipe!
Hit!
65 to 58!
This is Chen Xiao’s 15th consecutive hit in this game.
It was also Chen Xiao’s 43rd point in this game.
At the same time, the score difference between the two sides also widened to 7 points again!
After just one round, Ray Allen requested a timeout again.
After the suspension, Ray Allen replaced all the Bucks’ starting lineup.
The competition between Chen Xiao and Antetokounmpo’s MVP in this match is one of the biggest highlights.
But in this game, Ray Allen did not give Antetokounmpo and Chen Xiao a chance to fight one-on-one.
“Because I know that in a one-on-one matchup with God, Giannis will lose!”
“If you want to keep Giannis’ MVP opportunity, you can only stagger the one-on-one confrontation between Giannis and God like this!”
Ray Allen is well-intentioned.
Antetokounmpo knew it too.
Are you unwilling?
Really unwilling.
Now he is a complete body, UU reading www.uukanshu. He is the strongest in com.
But even if he is the strongest, if it is a one-on-one duel, he is no match for the 40-year-old God!
Very unwilling, but this is the reality!
Moreover, it was the reality that he had to accept!
If he wants to beat God to win the first regular season MVP of his career, he can only rely on more powerful teammates and teams.
There is no other way.
On the court, after returning from the timeout, Antetokounmpo came out to catch the ball and smashed Herbert Jones, who was out of position. This time, the Warriors did not let Antetokounmpo get such a one-on-one chance.
Chen Xiao let go of Portis’ help defense, Antetokounmpo passed the ball, Wiggins switched, and Portis made a cross, the ball went to Durant, who was 45 degrees on the left.
When Alexander was ready to switch to Durant again, the Warriors’ defensive loophole was already huge.
Durant crossed again, Curry at the top of the arc, adjusted a step to catch the ball, and shot an open three-pointer.
A swipe!
Hit!
Curry pointed to heaven!
The score is 65 to 61!
Still, anxious!
Still, the outcome is unpredictable!
