Chapter 384: Three Pairs of Masters
"Is this the end of the game?" With the sound of three whistles, two long and one short, the first game of the Eastern Conference finals between the Pacers and the Nets came to an end, and Michaels, who was on the commentary bench, stood up and applauded the court, and at the same time said with some unfinished words, Michael didn't expect that Jason Kidd could burst out with such powerful energy in this game.
"Jason broke out a little late, if he can maintain the level of the fourth quarter throughout the game, no, it doesn't need to be full, it only takes about 30 minutes, then the outcome of this game is unknown." For Meng Xu and Jason Kidd in the fourth quarter of all kinds of matchups, targeting each other, and you back and forth, Magic Johnson also watched very much, the only regret is that the time is limited, if Meng Xu and Kidd can have such a wonderful performance and duel throughout the game, it will be more interesting.
In the memory of Magic Johnson, the last time there was such a matchup, it was going back to the finals of the 87-88 season, that year, the Lakers and Pistons fought 7 games in the finals before the winner was separated, in that round of the series, although Magic Johnson was slightly better than Isaiah Thomas in terms of data, but in the Magic's view, in that round of the series, the two were evenly matched from beginning to end, and no one could suppress the opponent, especially the peak matchup in the series G6, which made Isaiah Thomas always linger, It also made Magic Johnson a game that he will remember for the rest of his life. In that game, Magic Johnson scored 22 points and 4 rebounds, and handed out a personal playoff second-high 19 assists, while Isaiah Thomas scored 43 points, 8 assists, and 6 steals, and the duel between the two lasted throughout the game, until the last 10 seconds of the game, Magic Johnson assisted James Worthy to complete the fatal blow, and the Lakers moved the score to 3-3, and after winning that crucial game, the morale-boosting Lakers finally won the tiebreaker at home. Magic Johnson also got his fifth career championship ring.
And in the current game, if you only look at the fourth quarter, the duel between Meng Xu and Kidd even exceeds the peak duel between Magic Johnson and Isaiah Thomas, and compared with the star-studded Pistons and Lakers, the Pacers and Nets seem a lot more mediocre, without James Worthy, and superstar teammates like Adrian Dantley, so Meng Xu and Kidd have more space to wield their energy. Jason Kidd shot 7-of-10 in the fourth quarter, 2-of-3 from the free-throw line, scored 17 points and handed out 6 assists in a single quarter, and Meng Xu was not inferior, contributing 15 points and 7 assists in a single quarter, and almost all the points scored by the Pacers and the Nets were directly related to the two.
"What a brilliant matchup!, we are here today to witness the birth of a miracle!" Just when Magic Johnson and Michaels were applauding and sighing, Myr Daniels, who had already obtained the technical statistics of the game, was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said this passage in a lyrical tone as much as possible.
"Meng Xu and Jason both got 3 pairs!" After hearing Mayer Daniels's words, Michaels immediately reacted, snatched the technical statistics in Mayr Daniels' hand, and after a little glance, Michaels's whole person trembled a little. Jason Kidd had 31 points, 13 rebounds and 15 assists, and Meng Xu had 38 points, 11 rebounds, 14 assists, as well as 4 steals and 3 blocks, which was the fourth time in NBA history that one from each side had a triple-double, and it was the first time in the playoffs.
"A legendary game!" "The best layup ever!" "Magician vs. Smiling Assassin-style showdown!"
The day after the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, the entire North American sports world was filled with this matchup, in which one of the two teams won a triple-double, and it also appeared in the division finals, which was definitely a feast in the history of the NBA playoffs. And Meng Xu's aerial hand-changing and 3 pull-up layups occupy almost all of the TV screen, Meng Xu's layup is constantly being compared with Jordan's two mid-air three-lever layups, and Dr. J's air loop, in this case, the third game of the upcoming Lakers and Kings Western Conference Finals has almost become unpopular.
104-93, two days after the end of the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, that is, on May 24, the Pacers defeated the Nets again at home and won the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals, and this game also attracted the attention of almost the entire American media and all basketball fans.
And Jason Kidd and Meng Xu also lived up to expectations and played a wonderful matchup, following the last game after both of them got 3 doubles, in this game Meng Xu and Kidd still continued their magical performance, once again won 3 doubles, Meng Xu, who continued to serve as the organization guard, cut 24 points and 10 rebounds at the same time, but also sent 11 assists, and Kidd's performance in this game, although obviously not as good as the previous game, but also got 18 points, 12 rebounds, 14 assists of the triple-double data.
"Alas!" When the game ended, looking at Kidd, who had collapsed and was supported by his teammates, Meng Xu, who was celebrating with his teammates, also sighed in a low voice.
Although in this game, Kidd's state of entering the devil has been lifted, but in order to win the game, Kidd still tried his best, but it is obvious that whether it is physical condition or technical condition, Kidd, who lost his last level, not only has the shooting rate dropped sharply to only 44%, but even many passes that can become a subtle assist in the last game have become mistakes again and again in this game, although he still sent 14 assists, but Kidd's mistakes have reached 5.
Although the score of 2-0 does not mean anything, especially when Meng Xu and Kidd are performing so well, now almost the entire NBA is discussing the super matchup between Meng Xu and Kidd, and in this year's playoffs, Kidd seems to have become stronger again, and now Kidd has once again been presented by the media with the title of one of the five strongest players in the active team. After Meng Xu left the Spurs, he also rose rapidly and became more and more powerful, not only scoring against super scorers like Kobe and Iverson, but also with super guards like Kidd for assists, or even 3 doubles, you must know that the last player similar to Meng Xu in the NBA league was Michael Jordan. Therefore, although almost all the media are talking about Meng Xu and Kidd, the Pacers and the Nets, few people have taken the initiative to mention the score of the series between the two teams.
