Chapter 122 I Can Win Without Rebounding (Ask for the First Order Reward Monthly Pass)
The Wizards possessed the ball, and Kwame Brown walked to the baseline to serve in a mess, and was in very bad shape.
Arenas was annoyed to look at it, but he didn't want to say anything.
But just as he reached out to catch the ball, a yellow No. 24 figure came out of nowhere, reached out and broke the ball directly.
After grabbing the ball, Ye Feng quickly dribbled to the outside of the three-point line.
I wanted to organize a wave steadily, but I found that Arenas didn't catch up at all, but instead walked towards Kwame Brown.
Ye Feng didn't think much about it, and threw it with his hand.
Swish!
Three-pointer shot, 89:86, the difference is only 3 points.
At this moment, James scored 25 points and Ye Feng scored 24 points.
Before he could celebrate, Ye Feng saw Arenas hit Kwame Brown with his chest.
"What the hell are you doing? Do you want to play well? If you don't fight, get out of here! ”
Kwame Brown looked confused and at a loss.
He used to think that after Jordan was gone, no one would scold him anymore.
Now he finally knew, it was all a dream, Jordan really didn't scold him, but Arenas made up for it.
Kwame Brown's life is a tragic life.
As a talented high school player, he has the potential to make a name for himself in the NBA.
But Jordan forcibly promoted him to the top position, becoming the first high school student champion in history, and then he was overwhelmed by too many expectations and reprimands. Sometimes, expecting too much is really not a good thing, and not everyone has the mental qualities of Kobe.
After that, Jordan is gone, Arenas is here, and Brown's grief continues.
Luckily, Arenas, Hughes, and Stackhouse have all suffered injuries this season, with the trio only playing 55, 61, and 26 games, respectively.
So for a while, Kwame Brown became the boss of this team and played the peak statistics. In the offseason, Brown worked hard for a summer, hoping to take the new season to the next level.
Then, he was injured before the start of the season......
When he returned, he was a substitute for his former substitute. Later, he was sent to Los Angeles.
Waiting for him in Los Angeles is a guy who is almost exactly the same as Jordan, named Kobe Bryant.
Brown's grief is about to begin again......
When this happened on the field, Eddie Jordan's face was very ugly.
While Brown's form decline was the main responsibility, Arenas didn't handle it in the right way.
As the boss of the team, he can't help his teammates, but directly sprays, causing conflicts between the two sides, which is absolutely unqualified.
But this is Arenas, whose ability to play is superstar (or even supergiant) level, but his emotional intelligence is comparable to that of a schoolboy.
Faced with this scene, Eddie Jordan can only deal with it quickly, hoping to mitigate the negative impact.
As a result, Kwame Brown returned to the bench and Arenas continued to lead the team.
However, this move did not save the Wizards.
Arenas became more emotional and began to play emotional ball.
In the face of Ye Feng's defense, Arenas hit it twice and threw it with a flick.
The basketball smashed on the rebound, and it didn't even touch the basket.
Darius grabbed the rebound, and it was another wave of fast breaks.
James hit the basket and hit another 2+1, causing a foul on Thomas.
With a score of 89:89, the Cavaliers once again erased a 15-point deficit.
At this moment, James scored 28 points and Ye Feng scored 24 points.
The Wizards possessed the ball, Hughes attacked, and cooperated with Thomas's pick-and-roll shooting into the mid-range shot.
91:89。
Looking back, James broke through the point and helped Ye Feng hit another three-pointer.
91:92。
At this moment, James scored 28 points and Ye Feng scored 27 points.
In the process of Ye Feng's shooting, Arenas just clamped Ye Feng with his eyelids and didn't raise his hand.
"Lost!"
Eddie Jordan is helpless, what else is the team boss playing in this state?
It's not just Arenas, it's everyone else on the field who is starting to get out of shape.
Sure enough, Arenas forced a single hit. But on the Cavaliers' side, James and Ye Feng blossomed at two points, Ye Feng hit a three-pointer first, and James hit another strong shot under the basket.
At 93:97, the Cavaliers had a four-point lead.
At the same time, Ye Feng scored 30 points first, and James also scored 30 points later.
Together, the two scored the first 22 points of the fourth quarter for the Cavaliers, James with 10 points, and Ye Feng with 12 points.
With nearly 40 seconds left on the clock and the Wizards also possession of the ball, it's not like there's no hope of winning.
But Arenas rushed to the front court with the ball, threw it directly one meter outside the three-point line, and didn't score.
This is directly burying the last hope of the Wizards.
In the end, the score of 93:97 remained until the end.
The Cavaliers completed a two-game winning streak against the Wizards, and both times were big turnovers, improving their record to 4-8.
For the Cavaliers, James had 30 points, 7 rebounds and 8 assists, and Ye Feng had 30 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, and the two of them accounted for nearly two-thirds of the Cavaliers' team and all the points in the fourth quarter.
And the two are not only high scorers, but also very efficient.
James was 10-of-18 from the field, 2-of-4 from three-point range and 6-of-8 from the free-throw line, shooting 55.6% from the field, 50% from three-point range, and 75% from the free-throw line.
Ye Feng shot 10-of-15 from the field, 7-of-7 from three-point range, and 3-of-3 from the free-throw line, shooting 66.7% from the field, 100% from three-point range, and 100% from the free-throw line.
This hit rate is simply explosive.
So you will find that although the Cavaliers lost to the Wizards in rebounding, and the frontcourt rebounds were crushed 11:23, the Cavaliers still won.
Not only that, with this game, Ye Feng and James became the second and third of the 2003 rookies to score 30+ points respectively.
(In the game, Ye Feng scored 30 points first, so he was ahead of James.) )
The first is naturally Carmelo Anthony, who scored 30 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists in the Nuggets' game against the Clippers on November 7.
After the game, Ye Feng was about to squint his eyes and rest for a while after taking a shower, but Brandon, the chief assistant coach, came over.
"Ye, go to the press conference. The boss made a special call, and you can't escape this time. ”
It turned out that after knowing that Ye Feng scored 30 points, Gooden Gander was inexplicably excited, and made up his mind to take this opportunity to promote Ye Feng, build momentum for Ye Feng, and win the Chinese market for himself.
On the way to the press conference, Brandon gave Ye Feng a brief tutorial. How to answer questions, when to answer, and when to remain silent.
Soon, Ye Feng and Paul rounded, and the other two players who attended the press conference were Ilgoskas and James.
Ilgoskas touched Ye Feng's head and smiled encouragingly.
James hugged Ye Feng's shoulders and said intimately, "Brother, don't be nervous. The more than 20,000 fans on the stadium can't scare you, but what are the dozens of reporters? ”
Ye Feng wasn't nervous, he just didn't like to face the flash.
But after choosing the NBA, Ye Feng had to face these.
