Chapter Ninety-Six: Jordan's No. 1 Successor
Paul pinched his face, and if it weren't for the pain on his face, he couldn't believe that what was happening on the field was real.
A team with one player at its core plays like a fluid attack on a football field.
The Cavaliers took Yuan Shu as the center, and played a heart-to-heart cooperation, which was like a meeting of hearts, more tacit than brothers.
With the team's fast attack, Yuan Shu threw his head to the left, one eye to Parker who followed up on the left, and then his head to the right, and one eye to Irving, who was holding the ball on the right side.
Owen hit the ball and passed it to Yuan Shu, Yuan Shu didn't look at it at all after receiving the ball, and directly pushed it, and the ball flew to the bottom corner of the left side, Parker was already waiting there, and this kind of flowing water pass is only common on the football field. Parker made a three-point shot and hit it.
The score on the court was already 90-78, and the Cavaliers led by 12 points.
Yuan Shu brushed the hairstyle that was thrown out of hand because of the swaying from side to side just now, high-fived his teammates and ran back.
"This kid." Looking at the back of Yuan Shu running back, Griffin was a little helpless, Yuan Shu's style of play in this game was not the same as before, erratic, and used ghostly passes to connect the whole team, making up for the gap between Owen and Paul in organizing the team's offense.
There are less than 7 minutes left before the end of the fourth quarter, Yuan Shu has cut 21 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists close to a triple-double, although compared with the previous games, the data is not outstanding, but it is a good responsibility to organize the team, under the leadership of Yuan Shu, in addition to Vallejo, the other three players who started all scored double-doubles, Irving scored 20 points, Leonard 17 points, Parker 12 points, and even the sixth man of the team who came off the bench Jamison also scored 15 points.
Although he got the prop "Thinking Glasses", which allowed Yuan Shu to communicate with his teammates smoothly, the process of this game also made Yuan Shu reacquaint himself with Grant Hill.
For a long time, Yuan Shu, who has never seen Grant Hill at his peak of play, has never thought that players like Kobe, Maddy, and Carter are more in line with the title of "Jordan's successor".
Judging from Hill's past, Hill's family background is relatively wealthy, and he has a high education and ball quotient, and he also plays a good piano, showing a unique star temperament, so the media regards him as the first successor.
But in fact, before his injury, Hill was recognized as the "fastest first step" in the league at that time, with 19.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 5.0 assists and 1.8 steals in his rookie season. Hill's strength is evident.
In this game, Yuan Shu finally experienced Hill's strength, if the real rich people don't like to show their wealth, then Hill also didn't use dazzling data to show his strength, but he was so unconscious, leading the team to slowly devour the opponent, and at the same time taking his teammates to play wonderful team basketball together.
"Grant, if you don't have an ankle injury..."Yuan Shu said with some regret.
"Yuan, when God closes a door, he will definitely open a window for you." Hill replied, "There are no ifs in this world, and I also enjoy my career, after all, it is the path I have chosen, and I have no regrets." ”
Isn't it? After listening to Hill's words, Yuan Shu suddenly realized that his previous thoughts were really a little naïve. Although these stars in the "sigh" did not win the NBA championship for these or those reasons, it does not prevent them from having their own wonderful careers, when we feel sorry for them, have you ever thought about it, maybe they didn't think so, just like the "uncrowned king" Chris Webber said, happy basketball.
Although Paul led the team to launch a ferocious counterattack at the end, Yuan Shu timely restored the offensive mode to individual singles, and several successful successes made the Clippers unable to close the score. When Paul missed his last three-pointer, the Clippers finally gave up their resistance.
110-100, the two teams played a high-quality attack in this game, both sides scored more than 100, and gave a wonderful game to the fans on the spot.
With the victory in this game, the Cavaliers won 15 in a row, but in the next game, the Cavaliers lost to the San Antonio Spurs by 2 points and lost to the Holy City. But the 15-game winning streak has also set the longest winning streak in the history of the Cavaliers.
After being snapped by the Holy City, the Cavaliers continued to build on their 10-game winning streak to put a league-best 25-1 record before the All-Star break, leaving the second-placed Spurs five wins away.
The All-Star Game voting results were released, and Yuan Shu was elected the vote king of this season's All-Star Game with an undisputed record of 3.5 million votes.
In the All-Star Game, the East Army, led by Yuan Shu and James in turn, defeated the West Team 142-128 and won the victory.
Yuan Shu, who scored 30 points, 9 rebounds and 5 assists, won the highest MVP call in the All-Star Game, but the trophy was stolen by James, and James's statistics were only 20 points, 6 rebounds and 6 assists. Yuan Shu's fans started a holy war with James's fans on the Internet, and even caused a showdown between Chinese and American hackers, and in the case of a dispute between the two sides, a new hacker unit was suddenly parachuted in, and Chinese hackers defeated the United States, once occupied the James fan site, and obtained the highest control of authority. Russian hackers later admitted responsibility for the incident.
After James miraculously snatched Yuan Shu's MVP trophy, the Chinese media ruthlessly criticized the incident, pointing out that the league ignored Yuan Shu's contribution to the team in order to help James build a brand image, pointing out that it was a conspiracy. The conspiracy theory has also been shared by many players, including Kobe, Duncan and others, who believe that Yuan Shu deserves to be the MVP of the All-Star Game.
Gal Gadot also publicly held grievances for Yuan Shu on Titter, and recorded a video on the Shake app, mocking James fiercely, this video received more than 40 million likes, creating the highest single video like record on the Shake app.
After the All-Star Game MVP was hacked, the Cavaliers only became more motivated, and in this season, which was delayed for a period of time due to labor disputes, they achieved a league-best 60-6 in a total of 66 games, of which 3 losses were all played by bench players when they locked up the first place in the league.
After the season, the league can no longer ignore Yuan Shu and the Cavaliers, and Yuan Shu was also elected as the MVP of the regular season in the 11-12 season with an average of 33.5 points, 12.1 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.2 steals and 3.2 blocks per game! He made league history and was the first Asian player to receive this award.
After Yuan Shu won the regular season MVP, there were media statements in the United States that after Dirk Nowitzki won the regular season MVP last year and Yuan Shu won the MVP this season, the league's MVP for two consecutive years was won by European players and Asian players respectively, and the position of the American basketball world number one has been threatened.
