Chapter 121: Team History Records, Although Defeated, It Is Still Glorious
"Tyrek is unstoppable today! 33 points in the half, this scoring ability is too strong! Napier's voice shifted a little with excitement.
"Yes Grant, Tyreck's performance in the first half today is really shocking, no matter how the Thunder team defends, he can't prevent it, he knows that he wants to break through, but he just can't limit it! That's talent! However, although it was only 2 points behind the Thunder at halftime, Durant, Westbrook, and Harden performed well ...... the halftime, scoring 18 points, 14 points, and 11 points respectively
Reiz was also impressed by Tyrek's performance, but also had his own concerns.
"The team currently has 3 fouls on their backs, and Whiteside has 4 fouls, although it is a home game, but the ferocious physical collision still makes the foul inevitable, and at the same time consumes the opponent, and its own consumption is also large. This is not the most critical, after all, the first priority of the others today is to defend, and what worries me most in the second half is that Terrick played the whole first half, and it is doubtful whether the second half can still maintain the firepower of the first half, after all, no matter how good Tyrek is, it is not iron-clad......"
Back in the locker room, Terek roared as soon as he entered the door, "Keep up the second half!" If we keep playing like this, we have a chance to win this game! Stay focused!! ”
Tyrek was so focused on the game that even at half-time, Tyrek was still preoccupied with the details of the game and was eager to get back on the pitch right away.
After a 15-minute half-time break, the two teams were back on the pitch, and when Tyrek stepped on the pitch again, the crowd erupted in cheers in anticipation of Tyrek's performance in the second half.
Tyrek also signaled the fans on the court to support the home team more enthusiastically, and the Kings, who are absolutely underdog compared to the Thunder, need an eager live atmosphere to keep the game excited!
After the start of the third quarter, the Kings still implemented the strategy of the first half, except for Terek, everyone's tactical position is the same, anyone can be replaced, everyone is not afraid of fouls, only by not caring about fouls, the defensive intensity can always be kept to the point of making the opponent fearful.
Of course, not being afraid of fouls does not mean that there are deliberate fouls, after all, if there are too many fouls, they can't use themselves, and they give the opponent a chance to make free throws.
Tyrek did not disappoint the home fans at the scene, he did not slip because he played the first half, and still used the way he was most familiar to tear apart the Thunder's defense again and again, and every time Tyrek scored a goal, the fans at the scene shouted higher and higher.
Although the Thunder team couldn't contain Tyrek, after a halftime break, the Thunder team obviously found a solution...... Put Tyrek to fight!
The Thunder's offense is still playing as usual, Durant, Westbrook, and Harden no matter how they defend, the three offensive strong points can't prevent one from the other, and there is always a way to put the ball in the basket.
Since Tyrek can't be defended in the first half, the Thunder team is not willing to waste too much energy on the defensive Tyrek problem, so they will defend alone, the best defense, and if they can't prevent it, they will never help to defend, and if you have the ability to score, let you play! If Terek alone can beat the Thunder team led by the Thunder Sanshao, then the Thunder team will also admit it!
With such on-court countermeasures, the Thunder team is the best self, Durant, an MVP-level all-round scorer, plus Westbrook, a powerful star guard, plus Harden, a super sixth man, the offensive ability of the three people, even if Tyrek is a god, can be one line higher!
In this way, Terrick made a passing layup, Durant made a pull-up jump shot, Tyreke pulled a lever from the baseline, Westbrook made a tomahawk split, Tyreic made a layup 2+1, and Harden made a foul from a mid-range......
Tyrek almost single-handedly fought against the entire Thunder team!
This is currently the No. 1 team in the West, and the record is also No. 1 in the entire league!
Tyrek is like a perpetual motion machine, no matter how up and down his teammates are up and down, he always stands at the front of the Kings and never gets off the court for a second!
"Crowds, there are 2 minutes and 39 seconds left until the end of this game! At this time, the team trailed the Thunder by 6 points at 96-102! The team still had a chance to win, and Tyrek had played nearly 46 minutes, scoring 55 points on 21-of-36 shooting!! Napier blushed and shouted excitedly.
Tyrek scored a career-high 51 points last season, which is the same as the number of points he has scored since the Kings relocated to Sacramento. Webb set a scoring record of 51 points against the Indiana Pacers on May 1, 2001, and today Tyrek has scored 55 points! Dating back to the Kings' predecessors, the Rochester Royals and the Cincinnati Royals, the highest individual scores in a single game were scored by legendary Hall of Fame superstar Jack Brown. Twyman scored 59 points in the June 15, 1960 win over the Lakers, and Tyrek was just four points away from that! Raitz was equally excited.
Even if they lost to the Thunder today, the team fought to the last minute with the first place in the league, and the fans were proud enough, and there is a high probability of witnessing the highest individual single-game score in the entire history of the Kings!
In the final moments of the game, the team was only 6 points behind, and there was still a possibility of winning, at this time Tyrek naturally could not get off the court, and with a mid-range half-volley after a breakaway, the scoreboard showed that Tyreco's personal score in this game reached 57 points!
Then in the offensive round of the Thunder, Durant received the ball on the wing, took two steps inside, passed back to Westbrook outside the three-point line, and made a three-point shot! Miss!
Whiteside won the offensive rebound and quickly gave it to Tyreck, who countered with a layup and hit it again! 59 min!!
The Kings are only 2 points behind the Thunder at this point! The Thunder quickly called a timeout!
"Whoop!!
“Tyreke! Tyreke! Tyreke! ”
“MVP! MVP! MVP! ”
The crowd chanted "MVP" in unison after Tyreco's goal, and continued when Tyrek returned to the bench during the timeout......
After the pause, the Thunder patiently attacked and played success rate while consuming time, and as Durant, who had scored 37 points in this game, shot a three-point shot with a blank face, the score between the two sides was once again stretched to 5 points, and there was 1 minute 02 seconds left before the end of the game!
In the final minute of the game, the Kings, who were trailing by five points, opted to play a quick two-point first, and scored again through Terek through a simple pass! 61 points! Throughout the history of the Kings, the first 60+ was born!
With 47 seconds left before the end of the game, there was still enough time for both teams to play one more offense, and the Kings trailed by three points at 102-105! The next offensive round must be defended!
The nerves of the fans in the whole court were highly tense, but it was Durant again, who made a mid-range jumper shot, faced Jimmy's close-to-face defense, and hit! Death has come!
With 25 seconds left, the Kings trailed by 5 points!
Tyrek received the ball in the backcourt and advanced quickly, Cosby had fallen into the bottom corner at this time, and Tyrek gave a pass through the half court to Cosby, and Cosby made a direct three-point shot!
Under the fiery gaze of the audience, the pop-up frame missed!!
Serge Ibaka takes the defensive rebound!! Ibaka protected the ball and tried to find someone to pass the ball, but Farid immediately fouled Ibaka and sent it to the free throw line, with 11 seconds left before the end of the game!
Ibaka takes a deep breath, takes the first penalty, and hits it steadily! The Kings trailed by 6 points, and at this point the game was out of suspense, and the Kings gave up their resistance. Thomas came off the court, and Tyreic, who scored 61 points, received a standing ovation from the fans when he came off the court, although he fought hard for the whole game, and finally lost to the Thunder at home tonight, but Tyrek is a well-deserved hero in Sacramento!
