Chapter 959: Breaking the Record of Three Consecutive Doubles!
The fourth-quarter decisive moment that fans had been waiting for didn't come.
After Tang Tian and Westbrook directly faced each other, the Pelicans completely turned the situation on the court.
Tang Tian scored 9 points on 5 shots, and Westbrook hit 4 shots with four irons, and the difference was stretched to 15 points in a flash.
And more importantly, Tang Tian got two defensive rebounds in these four waves of Westbrook's offense.
His personal data reached 51 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists!
After only a week, Tang Tian got the second 50+ triple-double of the season!
Moreover, it was also his 10th consecutive triple-double.
He broke Chamberlain's previous record of 9 consecutive triple-doubles!
In the end, the Thunder were unable to close the point difference, and Donovan replaced all the main players except Westbrook three minutes before the end of the game and announced his surrender.
Westbrook made back-to-back assists in the final moments to close the gap, but there was no suspense about the outcome of the game.
The Pelicans finally defeated the Thunder 118-105 and won ten in a row!
Westbrook played efficiently in the second and third quarters, but only made 1 of 8 shots in the final quarter, and the final stats were fixed at 37 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists.
Oladipo had 25 points and Adams had 11 points and 11 boards.
On the Pelicans' side, Tang Tian scored 53 points, 11 boards, 14 assists, 4 steals and 1 block, Davis had 20 points and 8 boards, Holiday had 11 points, and Williams on the bench had 12 points.
After the game, Tang Tian and Westbrook hugged in the midfield, and both of them were smiling when they communicated, and they seemed to be in a good mood.
It was calm after the game, but the fans on social media were once again fried.
"The false triple double king and the real triple double king, the real and the false have been divided! Tang is the triple double king! ”
"This is Tang Tian's 10th consecutive triple-double! Not only did it break the record of consecutive triple-doubles, but it also brought Don's triple-double to 25 times this season, ranking fourth all-time! ”
"This is the second time this season that he has cut a 50+ triple-double, and if it weren't for the early split, he might have got a second 60+ triple-double!"
"I don't know what Don's ceiling is, 70+ triple-doubles? That sounds too mysterious, but I think he could do it! ”
……
At the post-game press conference, there were a lot of reporters on the scene of the Thunder and Pelicans.
"What do you think of Don's performance today, he got a 50+ triple-double and completed a record of 10 consecutive triple-doubles, on the Thunder."
A reporter from FOX Sports asked Westbrook a question.
The final point of this question is to emphasize that it was obtained from the Thunder, and FOX's style of getting things done has never changed.
Westbrook was very competitive, and it was foreseeable that such a question would surely provoke his displeasure.
"Congratulations to him, he's done something incredible, he deserves all the praise, he's the best player in the squad."
However, Westbrook's answer was greatly unexpected by reporters.
Westbrook didn't express any dissatisfaction or unhappiness, but praised and even blew a wave of Tang Tian!
This doesn't make sense!
Lost, plus the opponent broke the triple-double record he is best at on himself, he didn't even get angry!
But this is not to blame the FOX reporter, he doesn't know about Tang Tian and Westbrook's private relationship.
And Westbrook is very sociable, he knows when to say something.
Even think about it, as the losing side to blow the winning side, that is actually a change of direction to brag about yourself!
After all, if Tang Tian is the strongest player, then it is completely normal for me to lose to the strongest player!
"How would you rate Russell's performance tonight? You have direct counterpoint in the last verse. ”
In another room, after the reporter asked Tang Tian about his own performance, the FOX reporter also asked a similar question.
The counterpoint results of Tang Tian and Westbrook in the last quarter are clear at a glance, and with this specially added, the FOX reporters seem to have the same idea of asking questions.
After all, the real Monkey King hated the fake Monkey King.
There can be only one king in the world, and everything that is false must be overthrown.
"I don't know how many guys in this league can score 37 points and get a triple-double, and there's no doubt that Russell was the main reason for the stalemate in the first three quarters of the game, and as for his final quarter...... Everybody has a bad hand, and that doesn't mean anything, I would say that Russell is one of the best players in the league. ”
Like Westbrook over there, Tang Tian's answer was also greatly unexpected by the reporter.
Tang Tian and Westbrook were at different press conference scenes, but the two had a good heart, and they coincidentally came to a wave of business blowing!
And the two of them don't seem to have anything wrong with it!
Compared to the previous post-game with the Cavaliers, it was also FOX Sports who played badly, but the result was very different.
It can only be said that Westbrook's emotional intelligence is going to throw off Whiteside by 108,000 miles.
"How many triple-doubles do you think you'll extend to? We know that every time you come after, you have a chance to set a new record. ”
The reporter from TNT asked another question, which is also a concern for fans and the media.
10 games have broken the record, but no one will be too short of records, and Tang Tian is now fully capable of doing so.
'I don't know, breaking records is something to celebrate, but that's not my number one goal, my number one goal is to lead the team to victory.'
Tang Tian's answer was once again unexpected, but after thinking about it, it was also what he would say.
In the past games, except for the one against the Cavaliers, his teammates were dedicated to helping him brush up the data, and the other games were all a reflection of his ability.
It's not that he wants a triple-double, it's that he can get a triple-double, and his triple-double is the best way to help the team win.
Strong individual offensive and defensive ability, super-first-class passing ability, and improved rebounding ability......
It was a bit pretentious to say these words from other people's mouths, but they didn't feel so strange when they came out of Tang Tian's mouth.
The game between the Pelicans and the Thunder was vigorous, and the fan discussion continued for a long time.
After a two-day break, the Pelicans returned home for their third meeting of the season against the Mavericks.
It was a tight game that didn't settle until the last two minutes of the game.
Tang Tian and Davis joined forces at the last moment to play a wave of 10-2 offensive and narrowly beat the Mavericks to win the game.
The game was intense, but the fans were not only focused on the outcome of the game, but on the other two places.
The first thing was that Tang Tian took three pairs of doubles!
27 points, 11 rebounds and 11 assists!
After winning this triple-double, he raised the record of consecutive triple-doubles he had just set up again!
Tang Tian's words were still in his ears after the last game, but he immediately got another triple-double!
Sure enough, the Spurs-born player, like that old guy, can't believe a single punctuation mark!
