Chapter 230: The Christmas War
Davidson is full of confidence in his future development, Fan Dong can reach such a high height, he may not be able to.
……
The next day, the game from last night hit the sports headlines.
Nash scored 72 points and hit 20 three-pointers, all of which were frighteningly super-recorded.
In particular, hitting 20 three-pointers in a single game is even more frightening than 72 points in a single game.
Because of the single-game scoring record of 72 points, after all, it is only one point more than David Robinson's 71 points.
And this 20 three-pointers in a single game almost doubled the original three-point record!
Last season, the '95-96 season, the NBA's all-time record for three-point shooting in a single game was just broken, and the player who broke the record came from the Magic, named Dennis Scott.
Scott, who entered the league in 90, has actually performed well for so many years, and is considered a quasi-All-Star level player.
He was selected to the rookie team in his rookie season and averaged 19.9 points per game in his peak season.
Last season, Scott hit 11 three-pointers in a single game, breaking the previous record of 10 three-pointers in a single game held by Joe Dumas.
Interestingly, Joe Dumas hit this record last season, in '94-95......
(Check the NBA three-point single-game shooting record, the Splash Brothers are really perverted, in the top 40 rankings, there are 20 seats for the Splash Brothers, including Curry 15 times and Thompson 5 times...... )
For three years in a row, the three-point record has to be refreshed every year.
This year, Nash has directly refreshed this record to a point of despair, and presumably no one will be able to break this record next season.
Dumas and Scott had set new records before, and they were all brushed one by one, from nine to ten, from ten to eleven.
Nash is good, directly from eleven to twenty, not giving future generations of fans a way to live.
Of course, this record does not mean that it is completely impossible to break, at least Nash himself has a chance to break this record.
You must know that Nash's hand tonight is not explosive, even so, in the case of high shots, he still hit 20 three-pointers, and if he changes to a night with a bursting hand, copying tonight's situation, will definitely break his own record.
……
Two successive historical records have made all kinds of media exclaim that the alliance is about to enter a new era.
What new era is entering? It was naturally a time for Nash.
Prior to this, the NBA can be said to be the era of Jordan, if Nash can lead the King to win the championship this year, then the NBA will completely enter the era of Nash.
……
At the same time, the performance of the Kings' opponent Hornets in tonight's game was also praised by the media.
The performance of the Hornets tonight was indeed eye-catching, and if it wasn't for the last-minute drop of the chain, they really had a chance to pull the Kings off the horse.
Hornets head coach Cowens was praised by the media for not wanting to, saying that Cowens invented a tactic that could compete with super teams......
……
In this game, Nash and Cowens became the big winners.
In the All-Star voting the next day, it was obvious that Nash's votes were skyrocketing, although Nash's votes were higher than Stockton and Peyton, but they were not very high.
And now according to this vote situation, the final vote may be the final result, Payton and Stockton, both of whom have no higher number of votes than Nash.
That's what Davidson wanted, and he was incredibly safe to be selected into the All-Star starting lineup.
……
With Nash's All-Star starter out of place, Davidson's side will undoubtedly have to start preparing for the Christmas game.
The opponent is the Bulls, and Davidson can't afford not to pay attention to it!
Davidson's ultimate goal this season is to win the championship, no matter what!
If he doesn't win the championship, it means that Davidson's promotion to senior buyer will have to drag on for another year.
Buyers also have a career life, and if they can't be promoted one after another, they are likely to leave a big regret.
So Davidson must make the cut as early as possible.
If it drags on for a year, it will certainly not be a good thing.
This Christmas battle can basically be seen as a rehearsal for the finals.
Not only Davidson's side is paying attention, but the Bulls' side must also be very important.
Last season's Kings, although they also reached the Finals, the Bulls didn't take the Kings too seriously.
They knew very well that the king would definitely not be their opponent.
But this season's situation is different, not to mention the bug-like Nash, even just the addition of Barkley is enough to make the Bulls jealous of the Kings.
Now with the addition of a bug-like Nash, the Bulls are now full of crisis, and they also want to see how strong the Kings have reached from the next Christmas game.
If we can win the king, then everyone will be happy.
If they lose, then the bulls have to start figuring out how to do it, and they can't sit still.
……
The Christmas war is getting closer and closer, and now that the date of the Christmas war happens to be on the night of Christmas Eve, Davidson definitely doesn't want to spend Christmas with his father's family.
This schedule is actually criticized by the players, everyone can accompany their families at Christmas, and they still have to work, Stern is simply inhuman......
But now the players of the Bulls and Kings must not have the heart to complain about Stern, and their only energy is focused on preparing for this Christmas game.
Barkley and Richmond have been training particularly hard these days, and Davidson was afraid that the two veterans would suffer from any injuries from overtraining, so he stopped their crazy training.
……
At eight o'clock on Christmas night, the Sleep Train Arena was really crowded.
The league can also be regarded as giving face to the Kings, and this home opportunity is given to the Kings.
Davidson was also embarrassed when he saw the full Sleep Train Arena.
When I first came to the Kings, the attendance of the Kings game was actually not high, but it was only a little over a year, even if it was not Christmas, the team's attendance was frighteningly high, and basically every game ticket could be sold out.
……
The players from both sides entered, and the cheers on the scene almost toppled the ceiling of the stadium.
Nash has become the focus of attention of all fans, and this fledgling rookie has given Kings fans too many surprises.
Even after Jordan entered, he couldn't help but glance at Nash a few more times, and he also wanted to find out what kind of magic this young man who had played less than half a season had and could create so many miracles.
