Chapter 552: Go All Out!
"80-76, the game is only 4 points behind, but the victory in this game is getting away from the supersonics, and with the feel of Yes's game, even if the game can really be played to the end, Yes can't hit the final shot!"
At the end of the third quarter, Kenny Smith said with great conviction.
Even Barkley, a die-hard coconut fan, couldn't find any reason to refute Kenny Smith's claims.
The reality is exactly what Kenny Smith said.
Just now, he used his full and helpless voice to tell the world that in this game, Yes broke the NBA's record of three non-dips in a single game before beating the Lakers and surpassing Jordan.
Whether Yes's mid-range finish is still out for now, whether it overtakes Jordan.
But one thing is certain, and that is that there is absolutely no dispute that Yes is the league's all-time leading scorer.
As the league's all-time No. 1 scorer, after a game played in the third quarter, there were eight three-ties, what is this concept?
I'm afraid even a fool knows what this means.
In the NBA, even top-notch shooters, as long as they want to, they will never have more than three no-touches in a game.
Hitting does require some luck and feel.
But if you hit a basketball in the hoop and basically shoot a first-class player, you can do it 99 times or even 100 times 100 times!
Yes's shooting ability is not top-notch, it's top-notch!
What does it mean for a super top scorer to shoot 8 times with 11 shots?
This means that Yes will make 72 shots out of 100 shots!
One triple no-stick in 100 shots is a top-notch shooter in an average feel.
There are 72 triples in 100 shots, and if you quantify a little, then the feel is 72 times lower than when you are ordinary!
And Yes's strength is a super top shooter, not a first-class shooter, that is to say, Yes's feel is probably more than 72 times lower than normal.
This feel is so low, it's outrageous!
Of course, the calculation of the feel cannot be completely calculated by the number of three non-sticks, but one thing is certain, the feel of Yes in this game is indeed impossible to support him to lead the SuperSonics to win in this game and complete the task of killing in front of Kobe.
Yes's direct opponent in this game is Kobe Bryant.
One of the best No. 2 defenders in the league.
Don't look at Kobe's defense of Yes now, it's not so tight, a posture that lets Yes shoot more.
But when it really comes to the last offense, Kobe's defense is not strict, at least it won't be what it is now.
With Kobe's current defense, Yes's shooting percentage and feel are as low as this, can you expect Yes to perform better after Kobe's defense tightens up in the end?
Even if Barkley is a die-hard coconut fan and his trust in Yes has reached an extremely high level, he does not dare to have such optimistic expectations.
"This game, Yes is difficult......"
Barkley sighed inwardly.
And Jordan in front of the TV had a very elegant smile on his face.
Of course, such a smile was instantly retracted by Jordan when the TV screen switched to TNT's studio hall.
"Even if Yes didn't shoot a mid-range shot in this game, even if he didn't hit a mid-range shot, it doesn't mean that Yes didn't overtake Michael!"
"Seven games in a row with 100 percent shooting, that's what Michael gave him to surpass him, but man, do you really think Michael can do what he put on his own?"
"No kidding!"
"As Michael's closest partner, as the person who knows Michael best, I can tell you very clearly that Michael will never be able to hit the mid-range stunner in six consecutive games, and he will never be able to hit the mid-range with 100% of the seven consecutive games he himself said!"
"I think it's enough for Yes to do what it is now, it's enough for Yes to show us that he's the only player in NBA history to hit a mid-range shot in six consecutive games, and that's the highest-brightest performance in NBA history, the most incredible performance in basketball history!"
"Guys, it's not me who excuses Yes, Yes has already overtaken the ...... in the middle distance before this race starts"
Bang!
Jordan, who was still smiling and ready to enjoy the game, smashed the remote control in his hand into the TV!
In the middle of the face of the skin that Jordan thinks is a 'sharp-beaked monkey gill'!
QNMD's closest partner!
Now for that little bit of money, I don't even want my face, right?
You're shameless, I'm still going to do it!
Jordan felt the need for him to make this shameless guy 'unrecognizable' at the right time.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry, I'm not angry with this villain!"
Jordan barely made himself look less angry, but the flaming anger in his eyes showed what he was feeling most genuinely right now.
Pi Er is making him very unhappy now!
However, judging from Pi Er's current 'shameless' words, Pi Er and those who support Yes to surpass him are now desperate.
Yes, it's impossible to surpass him in this game.
Thinking of this, Jordan's mood was also a lot brighter.
The game between the SuperSonics and the Lakers was intense.
From the start of the game, the difference between the two teams has been maintained within 5 points.
Because the Lakers are stronger overall, they have the advantage and initiative in the game.
Phil Jackson was very happy with the Lakers' performance in this game.
Yes, this game feels so bad, which he didn't expect.
At the same time, Kobe Bryant's game felt so bad, he didn't expect it!
The two of them exploded each other in this game.
After the two of them blasted each other like this, it was basically impossible for the Lakers, who had the overall strength to lose.
Of course, in addition to being satisfied with the performance of the Lakers' players, Phil Jackson was also quite surprised by the strength shown by the SuperSonics in this game.
He had a more correct understanding of the current strength of other superSonics players before the game, and these people are indeed very different under the cultivation of Yes in the past two seasons.
The SuperSonics are at full strength, and the gap between Yes and the Nuggets is around 20 points.
But in this game, the other superSonics players played three quarters, and the gap with the Lakers was only 8 points!
Of course, the Lakers here don't have Kobe, and with the normal Kobe, the SuperSonics should lose about 12 points in the third quarter.
But don't forget, Yes in this game is also holding the other superSonics behind!
So counting Yes lagging, in fact, the other superSonics players in the third quarter of the game are 8 points behind the other players of the Lakers, which is the most real gap between the SuperSonics and the Lakers in the third quarter without Yes, and the gap between the SuperSonics and the Lakers in the whole game should be about 12 points.
This is much more fierce than the 20 points he predicted!
On the other hand, in the game between the supersonic and the Nuggets, the supersonic players are not really going all out, and the state and morale of the supersonic players still have room for improvement, such as this game!
Yes in this game, the bad hand felt forced out the state of the strongest supersonic other players!
In the game between the SuperSonics and the Nuggets, Yes always gave them a back, and they always thought in their hearts that Yes could go back.
But in this game, Yes, the three quarters of the eight times and three non-sticky touches, that is definitely not the end.
"These young people have been raised so well by Yes!"
Looking at the players of the two teams who reappeared on the court, the look on Phil Jackson's face was also quite admiring.
During the rotation time in the fourth quarter, the Seattle SuperSonics remained on the court with Barria, Quentin Richardson, Wilkins, David Lee, and Nick Collisson.
It's a rotational lineup of all substitutes.
In the NBA, very few teams will be fully benched in rotation time.
Most teams are willing to add one or two starters to their rotation.
This is especially true when it comes to crucial matches.
No one can play on teams that are not in the NBA.
It's that when it comes to such a critical moment, most managers are willing to trust a few core players.
So the NBA game, the more critical the game, the fewer players are rotated in a game.
Although he is not a manager like D'Antoni who is used to an eight-man rotation, his rotation is generally limited to nine players in such a game.
So, now the Lakers' on-court players are Fisher, Vujasic, Luke Walton, Turiaf and Randolph.
Four substitutes plus one starter or three substitutes plus two starts, it depends on the specific situation of the game.
Randolph struggled in this game with the help of Millsap and Yes.
In the starting time, Randolph didn't get that much playing time, and Phil Jackson deliberately allocated Randolph's time to the bench to play David Lee or Seattle SuperSonics backup center Kwame Brown.
During the rotation time in the second quarter, Nelson Sr. didn't work well defending Randolph with Kwame Brown.
Kwame Brown is what kind of player he is quite familiar with.
The hardware facilities of this player are quite good, but the problem of ball IQ and personality is very big.
He was in front of Randolph, too clumsy!
Randolph is a very agile player, witty and cunning to the extreme, coupled with a fairly well-rounded technique, Randolph is very fond of playing traditional interior players like Kwame Brown.
On the contrary, it is not very easy to play on the inside line that is not so traditional like Millsap.
Kwame Brown didn't defend Randolph as well in the second quarter, so Nelson Sr. rotated for Nick Collison in the fourth quarter.
Nick Collison has enough IQ, he is a pretty smart player with an IQ and personality on the line, but not enough physical fitness.
If you combine Nick Collisson's IQ and personality with Kwame Brown's physical fitness, it can definitely make Randolph uncomfortable.
As for using them separately like now, it won't have any effect.
Of course, although Kwame Brown and Nick Collison are used separately, they can't stop Randolph.
But it's quite enviable that the SuperSonics have two very different options for the backup center position.
It's not just their starters who are getting stronger now, their rotation is now slowly coming up.
Kwame Brown and Collison.
Sessions and Barria
Tucker and David Lee
Tucker and Quentin Richardson
Wilkins and Tucker.
Almost every position has two players with very different ways of playing to choose from.
The breadth of the supersonic bench lineup is probably not comparable even to the Rockets.
Now these supersonic bench players are short of the depth of strength.
And with the use of hypersound, which is extremely trusting to them, their strength and depth will be able to go up sooner or later.
The Seattle SuperSonics, led by Yes, are now really on the right path.
"Do you believe that Yes will show the return of the king in this game?!"
"Even if Yes misses all of his first 100 shots, I believe he can hit the final shot!"
"Yes is the god of lore who never misses!"
"Guys, now that we've been holding out for three quarters, all we need to do now is hand over the final chance to Yes!"
"As long as we hold on for one more quarter, another 11 minutes and 59 seconds, we can see a miracle happen!"
"Guys, can you hold on?!"
"Yes!"
"Guys, I don't know about the offense, I'll guard all the results for you in the back!"
Randolph, leave it to me!
Nick Collison, the team's vice-captain, took the basketball from the referee's hand after high-fives all the players on the court, and the baseline ball was sent to Barria's hand.
This is his first appearance in this game, and he will now face the presence that looks like O'Neill in tonight's rotation, Zach Randolph!
In front of Randolph, he looked so fragile and vulnerable.
No matter how fragile and vulnerable he is, he is also a teammate of Yes!
In front of fairy tales, he and his teammates are also fairy tales!
The starting teammates were exhausted for three quarters, and now everyone seems to be overdrawn.
And now, it's their turn!
Now, it's their fairy tale time!
"These Seattle SuperSonics bench players are really fierce!"
"Fierce indeed!"
On the commentary bench, Barkley nodded stunnedly.
After Barria broke through Fisher as if nothing, the two long men who faced the Lakers inside were a wonderful throw.
This style of play is also brave!
"However, the difference in strength between the two teams is not something that can be bridged by bravery."
Kenny Smith wasn't untargeted, because in the second quarter, Barria was so brave.
But all of them were crushed by Randolph!
This time, I'm afraid the same is true!
Kwame Brown replaced Nick Collisson, maybe even worse!
It's not that Kenny Smith looks down on Nick Collisson, it's that Nick Collison is like Chris Webber standing in front of O'Neal at the top of his life in front of Randolph.
Nick Collison looked behind Randolph, and the supersonic fans at the scene couldn't even bear to look at it.
"It's too weak!"
Bang!
As soon as Randolph dribbled the ball and flicked his left hand, he sat Nick Collison behind him away, ready to dunk!
It's just that just as Randolph was about to dunk, the referee next to him, Bavita, blew his whistle.
"Offensive foul?!"
"Randolph threw an elbow and fouled Collison in the face!"
Watching the replay on the big screen at the scene, the reporters in the media seat, the supersonic fans at the scene, and even the players on both sides on the field were stunned!
"Deliberately, it was Nick Collison who deliberately put his face up!"
This guy is crazy?!
Randolph who looked up at the big screen looked stupid!
It was the first time he had met a player like this on the pitch!
Not to mention Randolph, even Phil Jackson, who was sitting on the sidelines, was stunned.
Theoretically, both Kwame Brown and Nick Collison are sent in front of Randolph.
But there's never been a theoretical thing like no one is going to tell you that the defender behind you can go to such a point!
In Phil Jackson's prediction, the Lakers can slightly lead the SuperSonics rotation in the fourth quarter.
But after only three rounds in the fourth quarter, the Seattle SuperSonics tied the score at 80 with Barria's four consecutive points and Nick Collisson's offensive foul!
Watching Fisher on the court be easily assaulted by Barria, Phil Jackson's face was ugly.
If the Lakers still have Conroy, they will definitely not let Barria be like a fish in water!
It's just that Conroy has been taken away by Fisher Dragon......
The Lakers' rotation was hit by a surprise attack by the SuperSonics' rotation.
Soon, though, the Lakers' rotation came to their senses.
The main thing is that Randolph came to his senses.
Collison is too thief, and he needs to think about being yin.
In order not to be yin, Randolph's movements cannot be so big, the movements are not so big, the aggressiveness of the attack will decrease, and of course it will drop a little under the rule.
Originally, the Lakers had the dominant rotation lineup, but because Randolph's dominance decreased slightly, the two teams were actually inextricably separated in the rotation lineup.
By the time starters such as Yes and Kobe Bryant came on the court, the score had gone from being four points behind the SuperSonics to 91-91!
With seven minutes left in the game, the two teams were tied!
"Yes, we tried our best......"
"I know."
Each of these teammates around him did their best......
Right now...... It's his turn.
