NBA Backer King - Chapter 647

Chapter 647 Hitting the single-game percentage record

“brush!”

Pharaoh made an additional penalty.

“8 of 8 shots, 6 of 6 free throws, old K has 22 points.” Su Qun laughed.

As soon as the free throw was taken, Pharaoh had already turned around, not even checking whether the free throw was made.

When he crossed the center line, Quentin Richardson and Nash, who were originally on the center line, had already entered the frontcourt.

Of course, Parker and Crawford also chased after them.

At this time, Muhammad served from the bottom line, and Marion received the ball in the backcourt. Nash immediately ran back, threw off Crawford, and extended his hands to Marion.

“Snapped!”

Zhu Fangyu quickly inserted from the left, and at the moment Marion passed the ball, he touched the ball and destroyed the fast pass.

However, Marion regained control of the ball, but the fast break had no chance, and turned into a positional battle, Nash ran back to the backcourt to catch the ball.

Lao Wang is in the penalty area, the deterrence is too great, there is no way to go in, the Knicks don’t have many offensive options, Quentin Richardson runs without the ball continuously, and finally uses the pick-and-roll to get a small open space in the right elbow area, catches the ball Jump shot now.

“Snapped!”

Lao Wang took a step forward, flew to block, and fanned the ball to the Suns’ frontcourt.

Crawford chased with all his strength and got the ball before it went out of the baseline.

At this time, Nash and Marion had already returned to defense, and after blocking the block, Lao Wang also started to make a quick move from the right elbow, and rushed down from the top of the arc.

Crawford threw the ball over the penalty area, then looked at the penalty area, and began to run to the backcourt.

“boom!”

Old Wang jumped up, caught the ball in the air, and flew towards Marion who had just rushed to the basket.

Marion turned pale with fright, and hurried to the side.

“boom!”

The next moment, the basket was exploded, and the ferocious force made the basket swing up and down.

Next, the Knicks failed to attack again, and Lao Wang scored another goal. Before the end of the first quarter, Nash stood up and stabilized the situation of the Knicks with a three-pointer. 33:18, the Suns led by 15 points. Ended the first quarter.

“Tiejun made 9 of 9 shots and 6 of 6 free throws. He played 10 minutes in the first quarter and scored 24 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 4 blocks.” Zhang Reasonable said.

Su Qun analyzed: “The Knicks averaged 111 points per game before, and they scored 32 points per game in the first quarter. Now they only scored 18 points, a little more than half. Today’s offense is really poor, and the run-and-gun tactics have not been played at all. .”

Zhang rationally said with a smile: “Inside players only had 4 low-post attacks in the first quarter, and none of them succeeded. There were only 3 outside layups, two of which were fast breaks, all of which were successful, and one was a positional battle, which was unsuccessful.

That is to say, of the Knicks’ 18 points, only 4 points were scored from the low post, and they were not from the inside. The other points were from the outside and Stoudemire’s outside shots.

As for the Suns, Tiejun’s offense is all at the basket, with 100% offensive efficiency, which is why the Suns lead by 15 points in a single quarter. ”

Su Qun said with a smile: “It’s also the result of the Knicks’ hard work on the main force. If they dare to replace the substitute, they will definitely lose more.”

At the beginning of the second quarter, Pharaoh stood up from the bench.

After the Knicks saw it, D’Antoni quickly overturned his decision to come off the bench just now, and continued to play the main force.

The Suns still played with a group of substitutes. After half a quarter, the Knicks wanted to use the main lineup to chase points, but they didn’t succeed.

Pharaoh Wang went against his previous habits and attacked with all his strength again in the second quarter. In the second minute, Muhammad was fouled three times. His brutal low-post attack made Stoudemire dare not get close.

After half a quarter, he again made 5 of 5 shots and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 14 points, grabbed 3 rebounds, and sent two blocks and a steal again.

51:33, the Suns scored half a hundred in just one and a half quarters.

However, the Suns’ defense was mediocre in this half of the quarter. The Knicks successfully played a running and bombing tactic, scoring 15 points in the half quarter.

D’Antoni wanted to win very much. This is his chance to prove himself, so he didn’t give up the game and continued to play the main force.

The Suns also replaced the main force in the second half of the second quarter.

Ten minutes later, after the second quarter was over, Pharaoh attacked again in the second half. He made 5 of 5 shots, 3 of 3 free throws, scored 13 points, scored 27 points in a single quarter, and made 19 of 19 shots in the half. 13 of 13 free throws, 51 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 7 blocks, 1 turnover and 2 fouls, blowing up the Knicks.

The Knicks scored 14 points in the second half and 29 points in a single quarter.

At halftime, 71:47 points, the Suns led by 24 points.

“The Suns scored 71 points at halftime, does the Knicks have defense?” Barkley questioned loudly.

“Obviously, not.” Kenny Smith shook his head immediately.

Barkley asked again: “How many points is D’Antoni going to let the Suns score on his head today? 130 points? Or more?”

“Old K scored 51 points alone. D’Antoni’s running and bombing was originally to sacrifice half-court defensive strength to win more offensive rounds. How do you let the Knicks defend the old K?” Kenny Smith laughed.

“Haha…” Barkley laughed.

During the intermission, many Knicks fans took the opportunity to go to the bathroom and never returned. By the time the third quarter began, Madison Square Garden was already one-third empty.

“Old K, continue to bloodbath the Knicks in the second half.”

After entering the locker room, Colangelo shouted excitedly.

“as you wish.”

Old Wang drank a glass of energy drink, and took out two bananas from the closet to supplement his energy.

“Old K consumed too much physical energy in the first half. I bet he couldn’t play like that in the second half, so our chance to chase points came.”

The Knicks didn’t give up either. D’Antoni had no reason to give up the game. If he gave up today, it proved that he lost. It wasn’t that he lost the game, but that he lost the idea he insisted on.

His persistence paid off, and the Knicks’ offense played better in the third quarter.

The Suns are basically a reorganized team. Although they have 8 wins and 1 loss, they are still in the running-in process. Moreover, Zhu Fangyu and Josh Howard are only in the second grade, and Kenyon Martin and Williams’ defensive ability is only average. The defensive foundation of the main lineup is not good, it is all supported by Lao Wang’s defense.

Although Lao Wang has his own defensive system, he played too aggressively in the first half, and it was impossible to provide strong defensive energy in the second half. Therefore, at the beginning of the third quarter, the Suns’ defensive strength was not as good as in the first half. Under the running and bombing of the Knicks, there are loopholes everywhere.

However, although Lao Wang withered on the defensive end, he did not wither on the offensive end. He put all his energy on the offensive end, showing his strong physical advantage to the fullest. With his incredible offensive ability, he still beat the Knicks all over his head Bag.

It’s just that his offensive quality has also begun to decline with his physical fitness, reducing the offense at the basket and increasing some mid-range shots.

After the third quarter, he made 9 of 11 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, and scored 22 points.

93:79, the Suns only led by 14 points, and the Knicks recovered 10 points in a single quarter.

Su Qun said excitedly: “34 minutes in three quarters, 28 of 30 shots, 17 of 17 free throws, 73 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal, 7 blocks, 1 turnover and 2 fouls, old K played crazy today!”

Zhang Reasonably excited but regretfully said: “If there is no overtime, the Iron Army may not be able to break Chamberlain’s single-game percentage record today.

In that game that year, the Warriors played against the Knicks at home. Chamberlain scored 69 points in the first three quarters. In the final three overtime games, he made 36 of 63 shots, 57.14% from the field, and 28 of 32 free throws. Usually, his free throws were poor. But that day was really good, Zhen Gushuo scored 100 points on the Knicks today. ”

Su Qun said expectantly: “If the old K can score 100 points on the Knicks today, and this is Madison Square Garden, then the Knicks will be ugly.”

“Haha, unless the Knicks make an effort to tie the score in the last quarter and play overtime.” Zhang Reasonable laughed.

Old Wang was sitting on the bench, and Kenyon Martin next to him suddenly pointed to the Knicks and said, “Old K, look.”

Lao Wang looked over and saw Nash lying on the floor, a staff member was fanning him with a towel, and a masseur from the K Times Club was massaging his calf.

“Haha, are you so tired that you’re about to cramp?” Zhu Fangyu yelled with a smile.

“His physical fitness is mediocre. He averaged more than 30 minutes per game at most, and he had to lie down for a few more minutes. D’Antoni **** him. Now he averages 36 minutes per game. This season, he has been like this since the beginning of the season. , lie down and rest when you get a chance,” said assistant coach Scott Skiles.

“Nash didn’t take much rest in the three quarters today. He has played for 36 minutes. If he hadn’t been able to rest for 15 minutes at halftime, his physical fitness would have collapsed.” Assistant coach Frank Johnson said.

“It doesn’t matter to him, this is the result he hopes for.”

Scott Skiles turned his head and said excitedly to Lao Wang: “Old K, 73 points in three quarters, do you still have the stamina, let’s explode again in the final quarter?”

Old Wang drank the remaining half cup of energy water in one gulp, felt it for a while and said: “I played very excitedly today, it’s okay.”

“That’s good, even if you can’t break Chamberlain’s record, you have to break his second single-game scoring record in history.” Scott Skiles said.

“78 points, he also scored 73 points twice, you have already tied the record of 73 points, and another 6 points will be the second in history.” Frank Johnson said excitedly.

Xiao Fan was also very excited. He waved his hand and said, “As long as you can still fight, the others will try their best to supply you with ammunition.”

“it is good.”

“Old K, it’s up to you.”

The others responded excitedly.

At this time, the final quarter began, and the referee blew his whistle to signal the players to play.

Suns offense.

The main center of the Knicks, Mohamed, has committed 5 fouls and did not come up. The substitute forward Morris Taylor and Lao Wang are facing each other.

White Chocolate didn’t break through anymore. I was a little tired. Seeing Lao Wang asking for the ball in the low post on the left wing, he stopped playing tricks and just lobbed the ball in.

Old Wang caught the ball and got up and made a hook. Taylor was shaken up, and then immediately got short, broke through from the left side near the baseline, and hit the basket with a dunk.

Stoudemire came back to the basket from the weak side, stretched falsely, and completed his defense.

The defense is perfunctory, but the offense is very devoted. After receiving the ball, he retreats to the bottom line immediately, moves two steps to the right in a row, avoids the old king, and then passes the ball to Nash who goes to the bottom line to respond.

The three of Marion are almost down to the frontcourt. Nash makes a long pass to Alan Houston. The latter stops at the right-wing three-point line.

“boom!”

Although there was a small gap, it still missed.

Alan Houston shook his head helplessly. He has played for 30 minutes today, and his physical fitness is not much, and the injury on his body is still hurting, which also affects his shots.

Zhu Fangyu rushed in and grabbed the rebound, and the Suns attacked.

“75 points.”

Barkley looked at the old K’s scoring record and shook his head. It is still impossible to break the 100 within 48 minutes.

Three minutes later, as Lao Wang made two free throws, the Suns bench cheered. With 79 points, he has broken Chamberlain’s second scoring record in a single game.

After half a quarter, 108:91, the Suns led by 17 points.

D’Antoni called the second long timeout of the quarter to buy time for Nash because Nash’s leg was cramping.

“10 points in half a quarter, now 83 points, 17 points away from breaking a hundred, and 18 points away from breaking Chamberlain’s record, it seems really hard to break!” Su Qun shook his head and sighed.

“The Knicks didn’t give up. D’Antoni probably saw that the Tiejun couldn’t break through 100%, so he wanted to continue.” Zhang Lili said.

Su Qun sighed: “Probably, the second is actually not very meaningful, the first is meaningful, or break a hundred.”

Zhang Lili nodded and agreed with this statement. The second is really meaningless, especially for the Knicks. It doesn’t even mean breaking Chamberlain’s record. Breaking 100 is meaningless. I didn’t feel anything the second time.

In fact, D’Antoni really thought as the two said. Anyway, Chamberlain scored 100 points on the head of the Knicks. Even if he scored another 100 points today, it would be nothing more than that, so he also fought hard and did not surrender. , Fight to the end, if you can lose a little less, that’s a little bit.

Now he doesn’t want to win anymore, he just wants to lose less. If the point difference can be pulled to single digits, he will also have the confidence to beat the Suns in the future.

He absolutely does not believe that old K can perform such a terrifying performance every night, it is absolutely impossible, so he must fight!

After the timeout, Pharaoh, who added two more glasses of energy water, came on stage energetically.

Today’s physical condition is very good, and he still feels like a dragon and a tiger. In 6 minutes, he decided to explode again and hit 90+ to feel refreshed.

I didn’t think about 100 points because I didn’t have time.

“boom!”

Marion missed a jumper, Lao Wang got a backcourt rebound, and the Suns attacked.

“boom!”

“Beep!”

Old Wang catches the ball at the basket, hooks close to the basket, the Knicks’ backup forward Taylor fouls, and the ball hits the basket and then falls into the basket.

“Two plus one, beautiful!” Su Qun shouted excitedly.

“brush!”

Lao Wang stood on the free throw line, dribbled, hooked, and the ball went through the basket.

“86 points, come on old K!” Barkley shouted.

“brush!”

Nash turned back and threw a three-pointer, and the Suns attacked.

The others don’t attack, they just pass the ball and are responsible for opening up the defense. Lao Wang attacks the basket again and let him play alone.

“boom!”

“Beep!”

Immediately after receiving the ball, he made a moderate back arch, bumped Taylor behind him, then turned around and dunked, and Stoudemire who came in to double-team was fouled by a thug.

Stoudemire shook his hand regretfully, he shouldn’t have stretched out his hand indiscriminately.

“Thanks, Amare.”

Old Wang smiled and patted Stoudemire on the head. With Stoudemire looking helpless, he walked towards the free throw line.

“Haha, is Stoudemire giving away points?” Barkley laughed.

“brush!”

Hook, extra penalty hit.

“89 points!” Su Qun shouted excitedly.

“114:94, the Suns led by 20 points, and now there are 5 minutes left. If you continue to play like this, concentrate all your shots, and attack alone, the Iron Army really has hope. D’Antoni is not giving up. I really want to see the Iron Army Hit 100 points?” Zhang Lili said excitedly.

Su Qun shook his head and said: “It’s useless for the Knicks to give up now. Old K will definitely continue to fight. The Knicks can only bear it.”

“That’s right.” Zhang Lili smiled and nodded.

The Knicks attacked, and Stoudemire made a mid-range shot. The attack took 8.5 seconds.

The Suns were attacking, and White Chocolate felt that he had to play harder and show his strength, so that the Suns would be willing to give him a big contract next year, so when he saw that Old K didn’t enter the paint this time, he immediately rushed forward with the ball. went in.

He hit the basket, was blocked by Taylor, and immediately pulled to the right, but his ball had already flown to the left side of the basket, in the hands of Wang Tiejun behind Taylor.

The next moment, Lao Wang jumped up from behind Taylor.

“boom!”

“Beep!”

The sound of smashing the basket and the whistle sounded at the same time.

“Ohoo!”

The Suns bench cheered.

“Two plus one in a row, great job!” Barkley roared excitedly.

“Now 91 points, as long as the free throws are 92 points, there is still time.” Kenny Smith said excitedly.

“brush!”

Pharaoh made another free throw.

“92 points!” Su Qun shouted loudly.

At this time, on the hanging screen in Madison Square Garden, Lao Wang’s personal score was displayed, a huge number of 92, which made the rest of the Knicks fans feel very dazzling.

“Hush!”

Some fans finally couldn’t bear it anymore, and then countless fans started booing.

“Is this booing?” Su Qun asked in surprise.

“Knicks fans have this habit. The home team doesn’t perform well, and they won’t show face. Ewing, O’Neal, and even Jordan have all been booed here.” Zhang Reasonable said.

In the TNT commentary seat, Barkley was pressing the headset, his face full of shock.

“How?” Kenny Smith asked.

Putting down his hands, Barkley’s face was full of endless excitement, and he said in a trembling voice: “You know, Kenny, our ratings are skyrocketing, skyrocketing!”

“How much?” Kenny Smith asked quickly.

“After the third quarter, it was only 35 million, and now it is 55 million, 55 million, and it is still soaring upward!” Barkley was so excited that his face was flushed.

When Kenny Smith heard it, he felt that the adrenaline in his body soared to the peak instantly, and his scalp was numb.

“Tonight, are we going to break the record?” He asked tremblingly.

“Five, fifty-eight million?”

At this time, Buckley pressed the headset again, and the director told him that in less than half a minute, the ratings increased by another three million.

“what?”

Kenny Smith’s jaw is about to drop.
