Chapter 542 [New York Superstar]
Zhou Xuan once again hit amazing statistics. Played 42 minutes, shot 25-of-43, 8-of-14 from three-point range, and 14-of-15 from the free-throw line, finishing with 72 points, 3 rebounds, 7 assists and 3 steals.
Many people commented that the gold content of this data was greater than Kobe's 81 points, when the Lakers were playing the weak team Raptors, and the gap between the strength of the two sides was not small. And Kobe Bryant had two assists in the whole game, one of which was picked up by his teammates and scored, which was counted as an assist, and he didn't pass the ball at all in the second half.
If five assists are converted into 10 points, Zhou Xuan is equivalent to 82 points, and the number of shots is less than that of Kobe.
It didn't take long for Zhou Xuan to score 66 points, and Zhou Xuan played a more exciting game, and the fans of the whole world were stunned.
The NBA Tieba has been occupied by Xuan Mi, and the new purpose of the NBA Tieba is that "Xuan Hei and dogs are not allowed to enter." "If you find someone hacking Zhou Xuan, immediately delete the post and close the black house.
At the press conference, D'Antoni said: "Zhou Xuan can lead the team to win, no matter what way it takes. Today he played another magical game. We're all fans of him. ”
"Zen Master" Jackson said: "We had problems defensively, and we didn't pack Zhou Xuan a few times throughout the game. It was a terrible night. ”
Bryant had 41 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, hitting 15 of 33 shots, and his efficiency was not low. But he lost completely, even though he didn't want to admit it. The last time Arenas scored 60 points, Bryant was not convinced because Arenas made 27 free throws. But this time he had nothing to say about Zhou Xuan's 72 points.
The Lakers players are also very silent, talking too much and all in tears, who wants to be the background?
The reporter interviewed Zhou Xuan. "Did you think you'd break another record in the race?"
Zhou Xuan smiled: "I haven't thought about it, but I know that the Lakers are very strong inside, rebounding, and low-post defense are very good, and it is difficult to break them down if you attack the inside." The Lakers were average on the outside, so I increased my individual offense. By the time I realized it, a lot of points had been scored. It's key for my teammates to attract the defense, they can shoot the ball in, and the Lakers don't dare to let them go all out, so that creates opportunities for me. ”
"Do you say that the Lakers' outside defense is average, including Kobe?" The Los Angeles reporter deliberately asked a topic that could create contradictions.
Zhou Xuan sighed: "I have played against Kobe Bryant a lot of times, and everyone has seen the results." I said that he was very immodest in this defense, right? ”
Is this what you call modesty? Los Angeles reporters were sweating wildly, and this passage was sure to make headlines.
The reporter asked: "You were reimbursed for a serious injury last season and came back stronger, how did you do that?" ”
Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "Many people have written about this question, although I have not played for a while after being injured, I have used other ways to enrich my basketball theoretical knowledge, and I have also practiced shooting." I did a good job with my teammates in training camp and pre-season, that's it. ”
The reporter asked, "Do you think you can win the regular season MVP?" ”
"I don't know, but I hope so."
The reporter asked, "Do you think the Knicks are likely to win a championship this year?" Like you just joined the Warriors? ”
"I'll leave that to the playoffs. I just want to play the next game. ”
Entering January, playing in such a state, it is destined that Zhou Xuan can get more votes in the star game, and this time the star vote king did not run.
After the game, Zhou Xuan received countless congratulatory calls. Yao Ming said: "You are too fierce, take stimulants, I'll find someone to arrest you for a urine test." ”
"Familiar, I can sue you for slander."
Yi Jianlian said: "Dude, give me a little bit of your feel, right?" ”
Duncan said: "It seems that when you play Spurs, you save face?" ”
Friends called, and Emma also saw the news in the UK. She sighed: "It turns out that I am not here, you are so powerful when you are full of energy." ”
All the news praised Zhou Xuan, and none of the media gave him bad comments. Because he still has 7 assists, it seems that he can't say that he is alone, but the efficiency is too high, which is higher than the single-game efficiency value when Kobe Bryant scored 81 points.
The ESPN expert panel said that this year belongs to Zhou Xuan, who has completed the transformation from an ordinary star to a superstar.
Barkley said: "The Big Three are popular now, every team is that way, but the Knicks are a two-core in the end. During the star game, I don't know what kind of attitude the Los Angeles home audience will use to greet Zhou Xuan, is it booing or applause? ”
"Magic" Johnson was interviewed, lamenting the current situation of the Lakers and optimistic about Zhou Xuan's prospects. "The Lakers' defense is terrible, and I'm not optimistic that they can defend their title. And Zhou Xuan should win the regular season MVP. Even if the Knicks don't have the best record, he should win the MVP just because he turned a bottom-ranked team into a powerhouse in the East in two months. ”
James said: "I heard that Zhou Xuan cut a high score again, it's really terrifying. There is no doubt that he is very strong. But against the Knicks, we're not going to lose, and I'm a firm believer in that. ”
"We're past the time when we're obsessed with scoring, pretty stats, we just want to win games, the regular season is and the playoffs are too," Wade said. It's really crazy to throw more than 40 times in a game, and I want to congratulate Zhou Xuan, he has indeed made progress again. He is one of the strongest opponents in the league. ”
Paul frowned in an interview and said, "72 points? Really? Did he let him shoot alone for the whole game? I know he can break through, he can shoot, he's still a twitch, but that's too much of an exaggeration. HE IS ONLY 190CM......"
"I expected the day when he used to be too low-key and that wasn't good," Payton said. ”
The reporter asked: "Now do you think he is not low-key?" ”
Peyton laughed, "Well, he's finally gone crazy." ”
Zhou Xuan's former teammate, Monta? Ellis said: "I knew he had that kind of strength, and once he found his touch, he was unstoppable. But if I had been given that many shots, I would have scored a high score. ”
Fans love to score. Now Zhou Xuan is on the Knicks, partnered with a group of unknown role players, and is happy to take on more offensive tasks. His role is different than when he was with the Warriors, and his hype has been achieved.
During the break, Zhou Xuan accepted an exclusive interview with the Chinese media, greeted the fans, said that he must participate in the 2012 Olympic Games, and he firmly believes that he will lead the Chinese team to a breakthrough with Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian and others.
Many people on the Internet have regarded Zhou Xuan as the best player, and some people believe that he is stronger than James. He has more assists than James, and he has played 60+ in a single game twice this season, which speaks for itself.
Netizen "Shi Tai" said: "If Zhou Xuan is willing, he should be able to win the scoring title, last season he stopped attacking in order to help his teammates, see what the warriors have become without him?" ”
Netizen "Right or Wrong" said: "Zhou Xuan is always on the cusp, many people said he was finished last season, these people may have transformed into Xuan Mi now, right?" ”
Netizen "Love Me Don't Elbow" said: "Kobe Bryant reappeared with an iron elbow today, fortunately Zhou Xuan is fine, it would be a pity if he lost the opportunity to set a record because of this." Yao Ming, the blackfoot last season, elbowed Zhou Xuan this season, Comy, do you still love volutes? ”
There are countless hilarious comments.
American netizens also used their sense of humor, and when they praised the Knicks, they also laughed at the Warriors by the way.
Netizen "DDNW" said: "Joey? Lacob's epitaph should have read, 'I regret trading Zhou Xuan. As an apology to the Warriors fans. ”
"The Lakers should be glad that Zhou Xuan went to the East, at least they don't have the risk of being beaten up in the playoffs to break the record," CAT said. ”
Zhou Xuan and Stodamire were far ahead in the star vote. Not too surprisingly, the Knicks will occupy two starting spots in the East. Bosh is completely unmatched in popularity at the power forward position. Ross, Rondo and Zhou Xuan are even further apart.
While the Knicks are on a high trajectory, there are also people eyeing their benches. Zhou Xuan's starting position is unshakable, and Douglas, a high-quality potential defender, has become a substitute, and Douglas has 41 this season. He shot 2% from three-point range and scored 9 off the bench. 1 point.
The Clippers, Kings, and Rockets have all expressed a willingness to trade.
However, Mullin did not promise these teams, did not have a bargaining chip, but directly contacted the opponent in the next game, the Trail Blazers' Asian general manager Richie? Joe.
Joe was born in Myanmar and later moved to the United States with his family and became an American citizen. He was hired as the head of basketball for the Seattle SuperSonics, the predecessor of the Oklahoma City Thunder, in '97 and was promoted to assistant general manager in 2000, where he helped orchestrate the Ray Allen big deal and drafted Durant in 2007.
Mullin said: "Mr. Joe, the Trail Blazers haven't been doing well lately, are you interested in trading?" ”
"Who do you have a crush on?"
"Veteran Miller, we can send Mozgov, he's a good big man, but we have Stadamyer, Anderson, Pekovic, he can only play off the bench, how do you feel?"
Joe asked, "Is it okay to trade Pekovic to us?" I'm more interested in the big guy, and if you want, we can take your pick except Aldridge and Batum, and you can eat a few junk contracts. ”
Mullin smiled: "Don't be kidding, you have Felton, Miller is dispensable, it is a waste to play as a substitute, and it is not suitable to play as a starter." ”
"You know Roy's current situation, we are also short of people in the back line, if you can't come up with appreciable chips, we won't change it." Joe stuck to his attitude.
This is the case with negotiations, and both sides want to get the most out of it. The Trail Blazers have Aldridge, who moves fast, and wants a big center who can resist people. Pekovic's ability to attack in the low post is exactly what they lack the most. If the trade comes, the Trail Blazers will be able to improve immediately.
Mullin said: "If you're short of defenders, we can send Douglas again, two for one salary, so the deal is what you need. Pekovic is an important role player for us, not for sale, you think about it. ”
Mullin didn't say that this was the Knicks' bottom line, and there was room for bargaining. The first contact is enough to do this. The two sides are just making an intent, and the trade deadline is still early.
Allow time for the Trail Blazers uniform team to look into whether or not to trade.
