Chapter 339
Just as the typhoon passed, Chamberlain's triple-double made the United States and China completely fall into the discussion of this fact the next day.
In the hearts of domestic fans, the significance of this data has been infinitely raised, which is the first time in the history of the NBA that such data has appeared, and it is also the most dazzling data that domestic players can get.
So, in people's discussions, showing off, and comparisons, Chamberlain was added another halo - "singles king"!
"No one or team but himself could defend Chamberlain's score!"
As soon as this idea was put forward, it was instantly accepted by the majority of people.
Because...... The Spurs are already very strong, and there is not much objection to praising the strongest team basketball in the game, and Duncan is also very strong, the number one forward in history, and his defensive ability accounts for nearly half of this title.
Of course, it's impossible to ignore Chamberlain's style of play that is very restrained Duncan's defense, but who cares?
In the United States, the media that has not stopped since Chamberlain became the MVP has completely burst out all their enthusiasm, and countless basketball practitioners have also taken turns to stand up and add fuel to these blazing fireworks.
Barkley jumped up and down, repeatedly saying: "I'm very proud, I never thought my brother would be so crazy, he would be another icon of the center forward position, yes, he will be Olajuwon, a player like Abdul-Jabbar, I can guarantee it!"
Well, in the eyes of many people, this is nonsense, at this time, people associate Chamberlain with Olajuwon, Abdul-Jabbar and others, which is a normal thing in people's understanding.
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar said: "He's going to be another legend at center, there's going to be a place for him in the Hall of Fame, of course, I'm talking about the lower limit, and as for the height, that's only going to be known when he finishes his career!"
Olajuwon and David Robinson, who have always been closely associated with Chamberlain, were inevitably chased by the media to express their opinions.
Olajuwon: "He's got the ability, and when I first met him I knew he was going to be one of the most important forces in the NBA for a long time, and he's very hard-working, focused, and he's very disciplined in his life, and I think that's the most important factor in his success compared to his talent." ”
David Robinson: "I met him at this time last year, and like all rookies, he was a little confused about his future, but he chose to leave the Spurs, which I regret very much, but at the same time I'm happy for him. Yes, it was the right choice for him, he needed the ball, but he wouldn't be the first choice at the Spurs, and I think that's the main reason why Mr. Popovich didn't keep him at the time!"
The words of the "admiral" drew a circle of problems, once again linking the present with a problem that had existed for a long time before, and the media showed full enthusiasm and could not wait to find Popovich for verification.
This old guy never misses any opportunity to motivate his teammates to fight his opponents. Of course, at this time, the opponent is something he cannot fight.
"I had to choose between Zhang and Tim, I thought I was wise, but I'm starting to doubt that now!"
Duncan: "........."
Duncan said that he was very hurt, and he felt that his second pulse was about to be broken!
The old guys speak freely, and the active players who are still in this industry can't escape the harassment of the media.
O'Neal, who has already begun to "dive", "surfaced" after the game with the Pistons, and planned to breathe air and "dive" deeper in the next game. And then....... He was "captured" by the media.
"That's exactly what I'm looking forward to, and I hope he ends up being our opponent in the final, you know, I've lost too much motivation for the game and he's the one I'm most motivated to face right now!"
In addition to O'Neal, all the players who have left their names in the current squad have not escaped media interviews without exception.
Kobe, Garnett, Iverson........
However, among them, the 03 generation is the most "affected".
James: "I've been working on my attacking prowess this summer, whenever I want to rest, I think about him, and then I can put my heart and soul into training, he's going to be the biggest opponent of my career, I said to myself. ”
Anthony: "I told myself that I had to work harder, and yes, I don't deny that he was the one I wanted to beat the most!"
Bosh: "A lot of people are talking about my ability to fight and I think people can shut up now, but I don't mind them questioning my offense, that's where I'm going in the future!"
Wade: "There's nothing to say, we're on the same battlefield now, I don't want to talk about him right now, the most important thing for me is the team's win!"
And poor Milicic is destined to be talked about, and this is also very true: "We have always been compared to people, since college, until now, we have a similar style of play, the technical characteristics are not much different, I have been thinking, how to beat such an opponent, now I have found the target, defending, yes, I don't think I am more talented in attack than him, but I will use defense to let people know that we will always be compared!"
In the eyes of many people, it was more of a joke, and at this time, no one believed that he could do it except Milicic himself.
"Parallel Import"!
In such a wave, the team's management couldn't help but come out to "brush" a wave of presence.
"The Celtics will seek a trade, we will bring his talent to the East Coast, he will belong here!"
"The Lakers have always had a tradition of building teams with super centers, and now we've found new targets, and that's going to be our most important job in the new season!"
"The Knicks are the best team, so we need the best stars to lead us, and there's no doubt that Chang is the guy we've been looking for, and we're considering submitting a new bill to the NBA headquarters so that players like them can get the right start sooner!"
————
It's very lively, boiling, all kinds of arguments are emerging, everything, it seems that the supersonic has become the ultimate winner, but the game is actually not yet the time when the dust has settled, after a day of rest, they set off again, and the Spurs, too, are ready, they are also waiting for the arrival of the opponent!
