Chapter 286
It's the Jazz offense again.
The Eagles continued to defend around the front. Although the Eagles' speed-up defense looks fierce, there must be loopholes in the press. After being scolded by Coach Sloan on the sidelines, Deshaun Stevenson received the ball Knowing that he went inside for a dunk, the Jazz's scoring continued.
But for the dunk, even if Deshaun Stevenson has good physical fitness and the dunk is very explosive, it can only be two points after all.
The Eagles counterattacked immediately after the opponent's goal. This time, Jason Terry received the ball and attracted it to the defense. Liu Mang made a three-pointer after receiving the ball from the bottom corner!
According to common sense, 3 is always greater than 2!
Finding a way to defeat the enemy, the Eagles immediately got back on track. Liu Mang desperately went around and confronted his body, locking Marshall's record of 11 three-pointers in a single game.
Before, the Jazz unilaterally strengthened the physical confrontation, which made the physical fitness of the two teams uncontrollable. At the last moment, the Eagles also strengthened the physical confrontation. Now it is all about willpower.
First of all, it is the Jazz who can't hold on! After all, the Eagles still have a ten-point lead, and they have three excellent ball-handling singles, while the Jazz, after Hornacek and others retired, only Marshall is a good singles player on the bench, and everyone else is average. You can even say no.
Although the Eagles gave the Jazz some opportunities to hit the basket directly because of their wonderful defense and the whole team going forward.
But harmless!
At least the Eagles' own offense has continued, with people moving the ball instead of singles like before.
Although Liu Mang is statistically said to be the kind of player who holds the ball and does not let go or pass it, but after watching his game, I found that he is not as independent as expected, sticking to the ball, but it is not that he refuses to hand over the ball. Going out, it's just that Raheem and Jason Terry both held the ball for two or three seconds before shooting, so it seemed that the two of them held the ball for so little time, and Liu Mang held the ball for so much time.
Thinking about it carefully, apart from Liu Mang, there are two Eagles who averaged more than 6 singles per game, averaging at least 1.5 singles per game. This is the case with Raheem and Jason Terry, both of whom have a lot of holding power. Ball singles, there are two offenses and new teams with this number of singles, counting the entire NBA, except for the Eagles, there is only one team!
Liu Mang holds the ball for a long time, mainly because there are only a few players on the team who can catch the ball and shoot. Most of them are impact role players. Can Liu Mang hold the ball all the time?
As the Eagles picked up speed, the Jazz gradually couldn't hold it anymore. They played and played. Ostertag simply stopped at his own three-point line. Both teams were running and playing. Are you going to be exhausted?
In the end, Ostertag just stood in and out of his own basket, and a rookie wearing size 1 slipped in and dunked him, and he didn't even bother to reach out!
With more than 1 minute and 30 seconds left in the clock, there was still 11 points left. Coach Sloan saw that his current lineup was not a key player. At 45 points, he couldn't jump up anymore, and it was a bit difficult to get rid of the harassment of the rookie on the opposite side.
This is almost the end of the game. Sure enough, there are no players. Even if the opportunity arises, it will be very difficult to come back.
Good skills, high IQ, good stamina, but also a wretched style of play, good at using pick-and-roll... Good player!
This is the evaluation of Liu Mang under Coach Sloan's stinky face!
"Phil, show me the profile of that Chinese Liu." Sloan said to his old partner and old assistant coach Phil Johnson who had worked with him for more than ten years.
The scouting report is a must-have item for every team, and each team may have limited scouting capabilities. Like the Pistons in the Chuck Daly era, the scouts trained by the league are one-to-one. The Wizards Probe has always been at the bottom of the league.
But for the basic information, the scouting reports of each team are similar.
"Ace, haven't you turned 20 yet? 1+1 basic salary is not guaranteed, team option..." Coach Sloan thought that the two cores are so old, and it's time to think about the future.
...
With another close-range shot by Liu Mang, the point difference came to 15 points.
With only 58 seconds left, the Jazz replaced the main force and announced their surrender!
The Eagles also replaced the main force, and Liu Mang followed suit. There were more than 50 seconds left, and there was nothing to score. Don't lose that person!
but……
When Liu Mang got off the court, he felt strange. Why were his teammates so excited? Emmanuel ran into the court and was warned by the referee not to come in.
There are also some fans at the scene applauding...
"Ace, you are amazing! Wow! The most powerful rookie in history!"
When Liu Mang walked to the sidelines, Emmanuel rushed up and hugged Liu Mang, very excited.
"?"
Looking at Jason Terry who seems a bit envious, Raheem with a look of emotion, Coach Kruger with an expression that really made your wish come true, and Kukoc who was shocked...
I scanned the auditorium and found that some fans with cameras were shooting wildly at the big screen above the center of the stadium...
Liu Mang looked up at the big screen.
It was written impressively on the big screen.
NO.9, Ace Liu, 51 points in a single game!
The ninth rookie in NBA history with 50+ in a single game!
The first eight are also listed.
George Mikan, Elgin Baylor, Wilt Chamberlain, Earl Monroe, Rick Barry, Elvin Hayes, Kareem Jabbar, Allen Iverson!
With more than 50 years of history in the NBA, only 8 players have scored 50+ in a single game before, including Jordan, Olajuwon, Malone, etc., none of them completed a single 50+ in a rookie season!
Ninth born today!
And in these eight rookie seasons, Iverson, who has won 50+ points in a single game, has at least won the regular season MVP!
Regardless of whether it is the opponent or not, the fans at the scene spontaneously gave applause!
For one thing, Liu Mang has no grudges against the Jazz, and even has grudges against the Lakers. In the eyes of the Jazz, Liu Mang is a good guy! Booing Liu Mang before was just a tradition in Salt Lake City.
Secondly, Stockton expressed his praise for Liu Mang more than once in interviews.
Third, this may be the only time in the entire fan career that a rookie can score 50 points live!
51 points?
Liu Mang wanted to score points before, but after he realized that scoring is important but winning is more important, he didn't care about it. Didn't notice that he scored 14 straight points in five minutes starting from the penultimate sixth minute.
Liu Mang was also a little surprised to score 51 points.
But what was even more surprising was that he didn't expect that a single game of 50 points would excite the fans and have such a big impact!
Before Liu Mang wanted to score points, what he thought was a 50+ game. This year, many players have scored 50 points. It seems that even Mr. Qiao has done it a dozen times.
He overlooked a point, he is still a rookie!
He can score 40 points, and he can do it several times. He can even score 40+ in two consecutive games against the Jazz today after he scored 40+ in the last game against the Lakers.
But he overlooked one thing!
He's still a rookie!
For a rookie to score 50 points in a single game, it can be said that he has made a mess of the basketball world!
A little confused!
Now that even the visiting team applauds him, Liu Mang is really a bit confused!
The next system prompt made him even more confused...
"Ding...received the coach's approval, from Jerry Sloan."
"Ding...received the long-term task, the coach's approval."
"Coach's Approval: Earn the endorsement of every head coach in the NBA and become the player every head coach wants to have, completed 2/29."
"Ding... the host scored 50 points in a single game in the rookie season, and reached the historical rookie achievement. The reward is being calculated..."
"Ding... Get the season mission: the strongest rookie."
"The strongest rookie: At the end of the regular season in the rookie season, the average score must be more than 20 points per game, depending on the degree of completion. Punishment for failure: None..."
There are a lot of things, I feel cold sometimes, the update is a bit late, I just got up and finished the chapter I wrote half in the early morning, and I will write the second chapter right away~ Wait a minute
