Chapter 17: First point guard in history to score a quadruple-double
La Janelondo is not good at heads-up.
From the moment he insisted on going head-to-head with Little Tiger in a fit of rage, Little Tiger thought he was crazy.
Rajon Rondo's strength has never been in heads-up, his offensive ability depends on the sky, and since joining the NBA, including this season, he has not averaged more than 10 points per game.
Now he wants to have a one-on-one battle with Little Tiger, which is simply crazy!
Rajon Rondo brought the basketball to the front court and immediately put on a posture to fight the little tiger.
However, his ability to get rid of it is not strong, and the little tiger always follows him.
He finally used a back turn to get past the defense, but his jumper at the free throw line ended in iron.
Little Tiger easily got into the paint and grabbed the rebound.
Then he handed the ball to Stephen Jackson.
He arrived in the front court, turned his back directly at the free throw line, and used his rich back-to-back singles skills to tease Rajon Rondo.
Among the active outside players, only one and a half can compete with the Little Tiger in back-to-back singles skills, and Kobe Bryant is counted as one. Paul Pierce counts half ...... He has a strong back-to-back skill, but his technique is attached to his strength. As for Carmelo Anthony and the like, he hasn't been in the house yet.
Rajonondo was quickly deceived, and the little tiger took a sliding step into the penalty area, found that Mirihiczy's side was empty, and handed him the ball, and he received the ball with both hands as a violent dunk.
+1 for assists again!
Rajonrondo was particularly angry: "Don't you dare to score?"
Little Tiger shook his head: "You are now blinded by jealousy and fear. The only thing you're worried about right now is that I get a quadruple double. And what I'm really thinking about is how to win the game. ”
"From the moment I pass you, whether it's me scoring a goal or assisting a team-mate to score, it doesn't mean anything to you...... Because you've been killed by me. ”
"Got it?"
Little Tiger stepped to the front.
He hoped that Rajon Rondo would understand his words.
Back then, the little tiger became famous in the fight against Rajon Rondo, and now he doesn't want Rajon Rondo to go astray anymore!
This kid can't be a superstar, but he definitely has what it takes to be an elite-level point guard.
However... Now his mind is no longer on the back of the point guard.
As Little Tiger said, he only has Little Tiger in his eyes, and all he thinks about in his head is how to prevent Little Tiger from getting four pairs.
Therefore, he would rather abandon his strengths and weaknesses and drag the little tiger into heads-up...... In this way, at least the other statistics of the little tiger will not increase, at most it will get more points.
As long as it's not four pairs.
Because, as long as he doesn't get a quadruple-double. I haven't lost yet! I still have the possibility of stepping on him to get on the top!
Rajon Rondo's mentality collapsed!
Syllable!
Little Tiger suddenly attacked, slapped the basketball in his hand, and then, a long pass to Ra's Manovich, who received a shot from the three-point line of the basketball...... Swish!
Little Tiger adds an assist and a steal again!
It's just a little bit away from the quadruple pairs.
La Janelondo was gritting his teeth.
"Recognize the reality and stop thinking about anything beyond me. This will affect your progress. ”
Little Tiger calmly told him, "The only way you can stop me from getting four doubles now is... Raise your hands in surrender and declare garbage time coming!"
Rajon Rondo gritted his teeth, he stepped towards the front, he was not convinced, he had to fight again!
So, time was advancing.
The Golden State Warriors cannibalized the score with blunt knives.
Kevin Garnett's rotation with Ray Allen left the Celtics without a backhand.
The third quarter ended quickly.
75:65。
The difference is more than 10 points.
What made the North Shore Garden Arena even more chilling was that the Little Tiger's stats at this time were 11 points, 12 assists, 10 rebounds and 8 steals.
And, still 0 mistakes!
"Those who mock Tiger's habit of taking a budget triple-double may be disappointed. Reggie Miller said pointedly from the commentary stand: "He's going to get a budget quadruple tonight." In the next 12 minutes, once he makes two steals, he will become the first point guard in history to have a quadruple-double!"
Bill Wharton didn't say anything, he just emphasized: "It's not 100 percent Boston Celtics tonight, and the obvious answer is that Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen are both on the rotation." For us, we don't need to add a win to the playoffs, we're already the regular season champions of the East!"
McBrin shrugged: "Let's talk about whether the little tiger can squeeze into the top 30 of the active team!"
The topic was brought up again at this time, and Bill Wharton looked a little embarrassed. His confidence is not as strong as before...... Judging from the performance of Little Tiger tonight, he can indeed enter the top 30 in the league.
But... His attitude remains resolute: "To be in the top 30 of the league, you have to have... The ability to finish the game with a decisive word. At this point, Tiger doesn't fit!"
At this point, Reggie Miller and McBrin really can't come up with any more rebuttals...... Because if you talk about the Lakers vs. Celtics before the All-Star break, and the little tiger's miraculous two self-throwings, Bill Wharton will definitely bring up the topic of the Lakers' superstars, and no one would have thought that the team's fifth point of attack would send two deadly attacks in a row...... This is a strategic oversight, and it is not that he really has the ability to make a final decision.
Doug Rivers spoke with Rajon Rondo on the bench, and he believes that Rajon Rondo's performance in the third quarter was terrible and simply not something a normal point guard should do.
After some criticism, he decided to put Eddie House on the pitch.
This gave Rajon Rondo a great shock, and he raised his voice in disagreement: "Why let Eddie House play? He will only make Little Tiger get four doubles faster! I will never allow him to get four doubles tonight!!"
His voice was firm and loud.
His voice was heard by everyone on the bench.
This makes everyone very strange, it seems... Rajon Rondo also attaches more importance to four pairs than Little Tiger.
"Kid, we should make sure we win first, don't we?"
Doug Rivers asked rhetorically.
"No, no!" Rajon Rondo kept shaking his head, he looked lost: "Once the little tiger wins four pairs, I will never be able to defeat him again, he will be on my head for the rest of my life......"
La Janerondo seemed to have lost his mind.
His mentality completely collapsed.
Doug Rivers shook his head, he could probably understand Rajon Rondo's feelings.
He also knew the long-cherished wish between Rajon Rondo and Little Tiger.
But... He still stuck with his decision and put Eddie House on the court.
And secretly decided in his heart: If Little Tiger doesn't get four doubles, he will definitely not let Rajon Rondo play again.
He is not Chinese, and he has never heard the idiom of 'break and then stand'.
But what he has to do now is to help Rajon Rondo 'break and stand up'!
Drip!
The fourth quarter was quickly underway.
It took less than a minute to start!
Little Tiger made a steal!
Eddie House slammed into the paint, got caught in the bag, looked back at the moon and passed, and the little tiger who had been in ambush for a long time waited for an opportunity to grab the basketball in front of James Posey.
Subsequently, the two sides entered a long tug-of-war.
Without Rajon Rondo, the Celtics' offensive system was instantly much more fluid, and the defensive end was also strengthened to a certain extent.
In this situation, the Warriors contracted a little and deliberately lowered the tempo of the offense.
The Celtics slowly cannibalized the point difference.
With five minutes remaining, the Celtics trailed by five points.
At this time, the little tiger completed the steal again.
He steals Paul Pearce.
Paul Pierce was single-handedly playing Manovich when he burst out of nowhere, faster than anyone could have estimated.
Pierce was caught off guard, and he quickly changed direction.
But the little tiger used his old stunt...... Cross-hand steal!
The left hand is the first to try, and the right hand is the real killer move!
The basketball was stolen by him.
Rajon Rondo fell decadently in an instant, his eyes were dull, and his spirit was drained away!
Drip!
Nelson Sr. asks for a timeout.
It was a moment to remember.
The Warriors' bench has gone berserk.
When the little tiger returned there, everyone gathered around him and congratulated him.
"Now I'm officially announcing that Tiger became the fifth player in the league's history to have a quadruple-double, and the only active player. Meantime... He's also the first point guard to win this honor!!"
McBrin shouts at the TV audience!
The news made Tiger fans in front of the TV infinitely excited.
Originally, they were already frustrated with the arguments of those basketball circles.
But in the blink of an eye... He broke the all-time record and became the first point guard in history to score a quadruple-double!
This is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for them.
At the same time, it also gave a resounding slap in the face to the commentators who couldn't wait to jump out and step on the little tiger!
Bill Wharton, for example, is quiet at the moment.
