As the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Gao Dazhuang slowly stood up from the away team's rest area, glanced up at the score on the big screen in the Toyota Center Arena, and then slowly walked towards the players' tunnel.

At this time, there was a burst of applause in the Toyota Center Arena, of course, this applause was obviously not given to ......the losing home team by Houston Rockets fans.

“GAO”、“COMEBACK”…… As the tall and strong got closer and closer to the players' tunnel, the applause of the fans gradually increased, and many Houston fans on the sidelines stretched out their arms to try to high-five the tall and strong, and even began to shout the name of the tall and strong.

They are nostalgic for this "rookie" who "once belonged" to them!

Tall raised his head and waved to the fans in the stands on either side, after all, this was the beginning of his NBA career, and he has always had a deep affection for the city of Houston and the fans of Houston.

Although he is reluctant to say so, the tall and strong man did put his "old club" into a dangerous situation, and the Houston Rockets can only secure a place in the Western Conference playoffs if they win the "dead-to-death" against the Utah Jazz.

"I believe in them, Houston is the same as Brooklyn, we both have a lot of young and talented players, and they are both growing, so I am optimistic that he can lead Houston to the playoffs" At the post-game press conference, Gao Dazhuang still gave his "opponent" James Harden's blessing.

James Harden played well in this game, and he scored a staggering 38 points in the first three quarters. Although the fourth quarter was limited by the Brooklyn Nets, they still contributed 42 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals.

But in front of the tall and strong, his team lost again, and this time James Harden failed to take advantage of the stats.

Today's tall and strong volatilization is undoubtedly better, with an excellent performance in the second half, the whole game is tall and strong 25 shots 17, including 8 three-pointers 5 of 8, free throws are 12 of 13, scored the second highest career score of 51 points, plus 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 2 blocks.

Whether it is in scoring, rebounding, assists and steals, the tall and strong has overwhelmed James Harden across the board. What's more, his team also won.

See this "spring breeze" rookie at the press conference. Houston Rockets general manager Morey and owner Alexander may have some "regrets".

The tall man is currently averaging 30 points per game and is 37 points ahead of Kevin Durant, who ranks second in total points in the season.

In other words, in the case of the final round, as long as Kevin Durant does not score more than 37 points in the final game, then Gao Dazhuang will win the title of the "scoring" king this season.

But it's 37 points higher than the current average of 30 points per game. This is not an easy task for three-time scoring champion Kevin Durant either.

……

After the victory over the Houston Rockets. The Brooklyn Nets' current record has changed to 55-26. They are currently riding the league's longest 14-game winning streak and are heading on their final opponent, the Golden State Warriors.

However, as soon as the Brooklyn Nets arrived in San Francisco, the NBA's official website also announced the latest MVP list, and LeBron James firmly occupied the top spot. With the Miami Heat's previous 27-game winning streak, he also almost locked up the regular season MVP this season.

Tall and strong and Kevin Durant followed, and Kobe Bryant also moved up to fifth in the rankings.

1. LeBron James (Miami Heat)

Last week: 27.5 points, 5.5 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game

Regardless of his performance in the final regular season, James has all but locked up the MVP, even if he plays with an injury, as long as he is the best player on the court, he played three games last week, shooting nearly 70%, and the Miami Heat won the regular season early.

2. Kevin Durant (Oklahoma City Thunder)

Last week: 31.3 points, 8.5 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game

Durant has won the scoring title three times in a row, and if he really wants to, a fourth won't be difficult, but he always puts the team's victory first, scoring 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in Friday's win over the Warriors, in addition to diching up 10 rebounds and nine assists.

3. Tall and strong (Brooklyn Nets)

Last week, he averaged 41 points, 6.5 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game

In addition to scoring just 24 points against the Detroit Pistons, Gao scored 47 points against the Orlando Magic, 42 points against the Toronto Raptors and 51 points against the Houston Rockets.

Gao Dazhuang not only led the Brooklyn Nets to lock up the second spot in the East early, but also occupied an absolute advantage in the competition for the "scoring title".

The current 55 wins of the Brooklyn Nets also exceed the best record in the team's history of 52 wins in the '01 season, and the tall and strong has fulfilled his promise to change the Brooklyn Nets, and the playoffs will be his bigger stage.

4. Carmelo Anthony (New York Knicks)

Last week: 37.3 points, 13.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game

In the game against the Bulls, Anthony extended his scoring streak of 35+ to six, and he also averaged more than 10 rebounds per game in the past six games. But he shot just 13-of-34 from the field, and the Knicks lost the game.

5. Kobe Bryant (Los Angeles Lakers)

Last week: 31.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game

Bryant's legend continued, and against the Trail Blazers, he scored 47 points in 48 minutes to completely conquer Rose Garden Stadium. After the All-Star weekend, Bryant averaged more than 39 minutes per game, contributing 28.3 points, 7.2 assists and 6.1 rebounds, and he has nothing left to prove.

……

The NBA regular season quickly came to a close to the 2012-13 season, although the team didn't have any "pursuits" in terms of record. But many New York media rushed to San Francisco to report on the final game of the Brooklyn Nets.

The focus of the report is, of course, on the battle between Tall and Durant for the "scoring title", and the media in New York are full of confidence in Tall and Strong, and they don't believe that Kevin Durant can beat Tall and Strong by 37 points in the final round.

However, before the final round of the competition, this highlight suddenly lost its suspense, which surprised many reporters at the scene.

Kevin Durant, a contender for the "scoring title," abruptly announced that he would take a break from today's finale and give up the honor of competing for the scoring title.

As a result, Gao Dazhuang won the scoring champion this season with an average of 30 points per game!

Gao Dazhuang was successfully crowned the league's "scoring champion" in his rookie season, becoming the successor to the Philadelphia Warriors in the 1946-1947 season. Fulks, the 1948-1949 Minneapolis Lakers' George? McCan, Wilt of the Philadelphia Warriors in the 1959-1960 season? Chamberlain and Elvin of the 1968-1969 San Diego Rockets? Another miracle exists after Hayes.

Kevin Durant posted a picture on his Instagram of himself writing on his notepad: "I'm going to take a truce tonight!" If you're disappointed that I'm not going to fight for the top score. Oh. All right! ”

The Oklahoma City Thunder will host the Milwaukee Bucks in an hour, and it should have been a game that would have been a nine-to-ten game, let alone a playoff qualification, if Kevin Durant wanted to. He can indeed make as many points as he wants.

Although it is very difficult. But as long as Durant surpassed the tall and strong by 37 points in the final game. He can still fight for his fourth "scoring champion" title.

Just the day before, when asked if he would try to score 70+ points against the Milwaukee Bucks, Durant's answer was, "If you want me to do that." I'll try, okay, I'll give it a try."

However, today Kevin Durant finally chose to take a break, and he gave up his chance to become the scoring champion for the fourth consecutive year, and the Thunder forward has been the league's leading scorer for the past three seasons.

In doing so, he became tall and strong, and he became the No. 1 scoring champion in the history of the Brooklyn Nets.

This season, he played in 76 games, averaging 6.4 rebounds and 5.1 assists in 30 points per game, and he led the Brooklyn Nets to second place in the Eastern Conference regular season.

Tall and strong can surpass Durant, thanks to the Houston Rockets and Brooklyn Nets that trade, after coming to the Brooklyn Nets, the tall and strong who got the main position not only played a lot of minutes, but also averaged 33.7 points per game.

Kevin Durant has previously said about Tall Zhuang's overtaking in the scoring charts: "He's very confident and I'm sure he's going to take over the game, and it's cool that he's going to surpass me in the scoring charts." ”

……

"Hi, Scoring King" and his teammates entered the Oracle Arena, the home of the Golden State Warriors, and Gao Dazhuang was immediately congratulated by many media reporters at the scene, and even the Warriors fans gave the new "scoring champion" enough applause.

However, after Kevin Durant announced that he would miss this game, Gao Dazhuang did not play in this game.

Another star player of the Brooklyn Nets, Deron Williams, leads Lance Stephenson, Kyle Korver, Chris Humphries and Timofey Mozgov against the Golden State Warriors, who also play off the bench.

Despite the rankings already decided, the game was quite intense and the young substitutes were hoping to get a chance to perform.

In the end, after a fierce exchange, with Kyle Korver's four three-pointers in the final quarter, the Brooklyn Nets, who were playing away, defeated the Golden State Warriors at home 102-98.

In this regard, the regular season of the season is over.

In the West, the Oklahoma City Thunder finished first in the West with 60 wins and 22 losses, and the San Antonio Spurs finished second with 58 wins and 24 losses, followed by the Denver Diggers and Los Angeles Clippers.

In fifth to eighth place are the Memphis Grizzlies, Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers and Houston Rockets.

In the final round of the "dead-end" battle, the younger Houston Rockets finally defeated the Utah Jazz with their resilience and returned to the playoffs again.

In first place in the East is the "league dominant" Miami Heat, who have a 66-16 record, followed by the Brooklyn Nets in second place with 56 wins and 16 losses, Carmelo Anthony's New York Knicks are third with 54 wins and 28 losses, and in fourth place are the Indiana Pacers with 49 wins and 33 losses.

The teams ranked fourth through eighth are the Chicago Bulls, Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics and Milwaukee Bucks.

As a result, the Brooklyn Nets are about to face the veteran powerhouse Boston Celtics in the playoffs, and the tall man, who is still in San Francisco, told reporters that he is ready to lead the team forward as a leader.

"I've got to get better of this and make sure I'm doing the right thing," said with a smile on his face, "Obviously, I'm still a rookie in this playoff tournament and I may make some mistakes, but I'm going to keep trying."

"As a leader, as a key person, I'm going to get a lot of attention, it's something new to me, but I'm going to do my best."

"We did a good job, now the regular season is over, it's the playoffs"
