Chapter 305: Breaking the NBA Assist Record
11-2, the Cavaliers finally stopped their losing streak, and with the cooperation of the whole team, they killed the Lakers, a strong opponent in the West.
At the end of the November game, the corresponding Player of the Month selection was also released, and the West won this honor with Durant, averaging 31.2 points, 4.6 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game and the Thunder's 9-4 loss.
And the people in the east who have obtained the same are making people sigh that it should indeed be so, and at the same time, they are also very impressed in their hearts, this guy has risen strongly.
It was not James, Wade, or Howard who won the Player of the Month in the East, but this year's rookie, Huang Xiang of the Cavaliers.
Huang Xiang averaged 34.6 points, 7.3 rebounds, 13.7 assists, 3.6 blocks and 4.2 steals per game, and helped the Cavaliers achieve an 11-2 record, and deserved the Eastern Conference Player of the Month award.
And when people sighed about the best player of the month, they will focus on the last peak battle between the Lakers and the Cavaliers, which was also selected as one of the most exciting games, especially Huang Xiang's last stunner, handsome and scum.
Huang Xiang still leads the scoring title, block king and steal king, and his assists are close behind Nash at this time, who averages 14.6 assists per game and ranks first in the league, and the third is still Rondo with 12.7 assists.
Kobe Bryant let people see the MVP of the past again in the last game, although he lost the game, but the crazy 21 points in the second quarter, and the wonderful performance in the fourth quarter, can be said to be the only bright spot of the Lakers' game.
Kobe Bryant got 41 points, 4 rebounds and 6 assists in the whole game, you must know that this is no longer a young Kobe, such a result, even Huang Xiang praised it for a long time in an interview after the game, not only him, Garnett and others couldn't help but praise Kobe's toughness.
And Wildbrook, another outside leader of the Lakers, scored 15 points, and his crazy shots did not allow him to score more points, and there were 4 balls planted in Huang Xiang's hands, 2 steals and 2 blocks, all of which he gave to Huang Xiang.
As for the rest, except for Bynum's 13 points and Gasol's 13 points, none of the others scored in double figures, and the Cavaliers did not, and the Cavaliers comprehensively suppressed the Lakers in terms of individual statistics.
Huang Xiang's fight with the Lakers had 38 points, 7 rebounds, 15 assists, 4 steals, and 5 blocks.
And Garnett's 14 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks are also extremely exciting, he is a guy who entered the league earlier than Kobe.
Howard 21 points and 9 rebounds, Williams 11 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists, Jones 14 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds, the Cavaliers scored five double-doubles, the data was the winner, the game, and finally won the victory, it is estimated that the Lakers will either learn from experience and retrain, or will make adjustments to the lineup, although the Cavaliers did not defend Kobe Bryant in the last game, but the Lakers also did not put the defense on the Cavaliers, their defense is too bad.
With that, the Cavaliers have wrapped up all of their November games and will host the visiting Kings on Dec. 2.
On November 1, Huang Xiang was interviewed by a Cleveland TV station as a guest, although he has been in the United States for so long, Huang Xiang still does not adapt to the humor of the Americans, so the show seems a little stiff at the beginning, but in the end, Huang Xiang still ended the interview with Cleveland TV perfectly.
"It feels pretty good, it turns out that millions of my fans in Cleveland, hehe, for me as an outsider, it's a very good result." Starting the car, Huang Xiang thought hehehe, thinking back to yesterday's game and feeling comfortable, haha, the Lakers, they were killed by themselves like this, and tomorrow's opponent is even more soft and not afraid.
Driving to his parents' restaurant, the good business attracted countless diners, but Huang Xiang always felt that this place was still a little small, but in Huang's father's opinion, this place was enough.
In the afternoon, when I returned to the training room of the Cavaliers, basically everyone came here at this time, and Huang Xiang was the last to arrive.
"You kid, you're finally willing to come?" Garnett looked at Huang Xiang with a smile, and the rule was to gather for training at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, but it was almost 3 o'clock at this time, and Huang Xiang was a full hour late.
"Well, what are you reluctant to give, whatever, aren't you nervous, oh, of course it's about tomorrow's game, look at you all like a big battle, don't train so hard." These people were sweating profusely on their heads, and they certainly hadn't been here for a minute or two.
"yes, hehe, I'm very nervous, tomorrow's game, there's a kind of you don't want to participate in training today." Howard has also come over, and the team's results have gone up, and the playoffs will have more advantages, and it will be worth the effort of so many years.
"Okay, okay, everyone come here, yesterday's game actually said that I was very dissatisfied, so, hehe, if you don't perform in today's game, I may make some adjustments to the lineup, of course, this is under the premise of your performance, what I need is a team that can bring victory to the Cavaliers, you know how to do it, train well, start." Scott looked at the eleven guys in front of him with a smile on his face, if you want to be more perfect, you must have a good lineup, and if this lineup can't bring victory to the Cavaliers, it is not impossible to change.
After listening to Scott's words, many of them didn't feel anything, of course, some people who really didn't perform well in normal times were not at ease, after all, one of the most favorable championship teams in the league right now is the Cavaliers.
On December 2, the Cavaliers hosted the challenge of the Kings, who have lost their last two consecutive games, and although it is difficult to find a taste of victory in the Cavaliers, as fighters, they will not back down.
Johnson, a fierce man who once played against Huang Xiang in China, has slowly taken over from the Kings at this time, and he can also be said to be the most important element of the Kings this year, averaging 18.4 points, 5.3 rebounds, 4.5 assists and 0.6 steals per game, even in the league.
Irving and Walker, plus Huang Xiang and Johnson, this year is a real outside year, and Stern is overjoyed to have rushed into several super rookies in the NBA at once.
After the start of the game, Huang Xiang and Johnson each scored the first point for the team, but then Huang Xiang faded out of the camp to win points, the Cavaliers did not lack scorers, Howard and Garnett shouldered the responsibility of scoring, and Huang Xiang carried the banner of organizing the offense.
At the end of the first quarter, the Cavaliers 33:25 Kings, an 8-point gap In the cheers of the home fans, the Cavaliers were still in a state of excitement, and the game, the Cavaliers fans had seen the dawn of victory.
Twisting his neck, the Cavaliers still sent Howard and Garnett in the second quarter, the Kings are a typical team with high outside and low inside, and Scott, who has always taken advantage of the opponent's weaknesses and attacked, will not let go of this opportunity, Howard and Garnett rested for a while in the second half of the first quarter, and now continue to cut points, it is very easy.
At the beginning of the second quarter, Howard gave the Kings a big gift, and his big hand touched the basketball firmly, the basketball flew, and Howard's block also arrived.
Gibson took the basketball and quickly rushed across the halfcourt, and at the same time rushed to the other end of the half court was Petrus, who and Gibson easily scored the basketball in the half.
Johnson slowly dribbled the ball through the half, and then assisted Evans to hit a layup, although there is a little less sense of ease than the Cavaliers, but to score is a success, right?
It wasn't until the end of the game that the Cavaliers went on a more thorough run of madness, and at 61:45, the Cavaliers laid the groundwork for the victory, and anyway, they would have it a little easier in the second half.
In the second half, Huang Xiang and Jones started a relaxed offensive mode, shooting in about 20 seconds each offense, but basically the shooting rate remained at about half, and the third quarter ended the game, 79:66, and the Cavaliers still lead.
In the end, the Cavaliers' 106-90 victory over the Kings improved the Cavaliers' win again, and at this time, they were excited, because, after the game, the coach told them that they were doing well.
One of the highlights of this game is the double interior combination of Howard and Garnett, with a total of 51 points, 22 rebounds and 5 blocks, which is enough to show the strength of the Cavaliers' interior.
Then on Dec. 4, they visited Charlotte, the NBA's youngest team has recently won two in a row, but the Cavaliers won't give them a chance to continue their victory.
"In this game, I don't have any extra orders, victory is the best choice, hehe, okay, still the old tactics, let's play." There are no superfluous orders before the start of the game, after all, the opponent's strength is not very strong.
What is surprising is that Huang Xiang played point guard in this game, and it may be that Iverson was not on the court, and the average of 13.4 assists per game in these games made Scott see something.
Huang Xiang is not only a good scorer, but obviously his assists are also among the best in the league, and his 11 assists in the first half can already show this.
The third quarter was still an inside moment, Howard and Williams carried the banner of offense, and with Huang Xiang's cannonballs, the Cavaliers still laid the foundation for victory at the end of the third quarter on the road.
In the end, the Cavaliers defeated their opponents again 99:81, and Huang Xiang once again set a personal record in this game, 13 points, 26 assists, 10 rebounds, 3 steals and 2 blocks, while achieving a triple-double, 26 assists set his own NBA assist record, and at the same time, this is also the highest assist in NBA history, yes, Huang Xiang created NBA history.
In an interview after the game, Huang Xiang laughed so much that his mouth was about to twitch, very happy, very excited, he didn't attack much in the whole game, and he kept playing the role of an assist, it turned out that he was so tough.
