Chapter 947: Glory (Fat Man Greetings to Everyone, Happy New Year)

Sanders could do nothing about Chamberlain's appearance, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, he then remembered that there were still 28 head coaches in the league who thought the same as himself, which comforted him a little.

At the end of the first half, the Warriors undoubtedly took an absolute lead, 60-40, a 20-point lead, and basically had the victory certain.

Chamberlain played 18 minutes and scored 16 points, 11 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 5 assists, which is very comprehensive, before the start of the second half, Carter, who was about to play, stood on the court with his waist pinched and smiled: "Hi, Z, there are still two quarters and more than 20 minutes, are you interested in getting a quadruple-double?" ”

Four pairs? Four pairs!

Listening to Carter's words, Chamberlain suddenly became energetic, yes, this is really a good mention, he seems to have a chance to win four pairs today!

In the history of the NBA for more than 60 years, there have been countless scoring machines, countless rebounding generals, countless assist masters, countless block maniacs, and countless steal geniuses, but there is no one who can combine the five items of scoring, rebounding, assists, blocks, and steals at the same time to achieve the ultimate.

"Unless God comes to the NBA, there's no way anyone can get a five-double-double here!" These were the exact words of Cardinal Auerbach, who also left another sentence, "But the four pairs will continue to emerge, and the torch of Almighty will be relayed." ”

When Mr. Bishop said this, it was on October 18, 1974, and that game was an uneventful game between the Bulls and the Hawks, but this was changed by the number of one person, who was Chamberlain's first teacher and now close comrade-in-arms, Nate Thurmond!

Thurmond entered the NBA in the sixties, when the NBA was still very chaotic, the discrimination and oppression suffered by black people were everywhere, Thurmond because of his rough movements, iron style, mixed in the NBA very difficult, he planned to retire when he was thirty years old, but has remained on the court.

He kept fighting, not because of his love of basketball or for the championship ring, to be honest he didn't care about it, but his boss did. At that time, the owner of the Warriors always wanted to be the first, but unfortunately Thurmond rarely achieved the first, and since he entered the NBA, he entered the NBA with the third pick, and he was not the first.

After entering the Warriors, Thurmond wanted to sell this life to San Francisco, but later, the Warriors owner thought he was old, and the team still had Barry at the time, and the combination of Thurmond + Barry reached the Finals twice, but twice failed, and then the Warriors owner couldn't wait and sold him.

Later, it was Thurmond who was traded to the Bulls, when Thurmond was 33 years old, and he was considered the kind of reckless man who would only rely on his physical talent to eat, so no one thought that the Warriors' choice was wrong, so Thurmond sued them with facts, which was wrong.

The game against the Hawks was just an ordinary game, but Thurmond needed an opponent to prove that he was old and strong, and the unfortunate Eagles came to Chicago to play away at that crucial time, and even more unfortunate that their coach said that Thurmond was old and useless.

You know, people in Atlanta have always disliked black people, and racial discrimination and racial oppression are particularly harsh there, so much so that during the Cold War, the United States chose Atlanta to hold the Olympic Games, hoping to use the peace of the Olympics to soothe the city's racial anger.

Against the Hawks, Thurmond held his breath, and from the beginning of the game, he didn't care about the number of points, kept grabbing the blue board, kept capping them, and kept assisting his teammates to score.

Then, for the first time, a superweapon, which had never appeared in the history of the Alliance, appeared.

Later, time passed, after Thurmond withdrew from the rivers and lakes, the rivers and lakes were calm for a while, and the superweapon of 'four pairs' never appeared again, but 11 years later, time entered 1986, and a boy chasing the wind appeared on the stage of this super record.

Elvin Robertson, a guy who was born at the wrong time.

The name is now out of the fan's eye, but he's a defensive genius, if nothing else, steals, and Robertson averaged two per game in more than ten seasons in the NBA from 1984-85 to 1995-96. 71 steals, plus a single-season average of 3 in 1985-86. 67 steals, both of which are still unbreakable historical records in the NBA league!

In the other four seasons, he averaged more than 3 steals per game in a way that no other player could do!

Robertson's total career steals of 2,111 are the eighth highest in the history of the NBA, but seven players ahead of him, including Stockton (3,265), Jordan "Flyer" - 2,514, Payton - 2,402, Maurice Cheeks - 2,310, Pippen - 2,307, Clyde Drexler - 2,207 and "Big Dream" Olajuwon - 2,162, have played at least 1,070 games. And Robertson has achieved such a great result in just 779 races!

But he was really born at the wrong time, if nothing else, let's just say that the year he entered the NBA, 1984!

Who made it to the NBA that year? Needless to say, NBA fans are familiar with Olajuwon, Jordan, Barkley, Stockton......

Among these names destined to be famous, Robertson is not famous, but as long as you mention the 1984 golden generation, you can't ignore him, because he became the second quadruple-double in NBA history: 20 points, 11 blue boards, 10 assists, 10 steals!

Fast forward to the 80s, the NBA's golden age began, and just four years after Robertson won a quadruple-double, another genius came out with a devouring force to score a third quadruple-double, and that person was Olajuwon, who was known as 'the first draft pick with anyone who participates in the draft'.

Although Robertson scored a quadruple-double, his influence was by no means comparable to Olajuwon, because his opponent at the time was the Suns, and that game was actually not worth mentioning, they actually had five newcomers who had just entered the rivers and lakes, and they had too many holes in their offense.

Robertson is one of the most famous clippers in NBA history, and with his speed he easily made 10 steals - in fact, he went on to complete three more 10 steals, all of which were harder than this one - but coincidentally, he also had 10 assists, grabbed 11 blue boards, and scored 20 points.

Olajuwon was different this time around, this time against the Bucks, who were known for their defense, and in those days, they had the best steals and press turnovers in the league. However, Olajuwon had not long been converted to Islam at that time, and Allah seemed to be possessed, so in that game, he began to explode, scoring, rebounding, blocking, assisting......

That quadruple-double was extremely important for Olajuwon, who had played well in the previous five or six seasons, but in their golden generation, his performance was really average. And this time after four doubles, Olajuwon dominated the inside line of the nineties!

Another four years passed, and another quadruple pair was born, and this time the founder was an alternative, and he was an absolute outlier in the NBA, which flaunted his individual ability.

Because he never felt that the individual was important, the key was that the whole team could win, and that was normal and correct for a playmaker, but the person who had that idea was a centre-forward.

David Robinson, the first NBA star to be admired by Sabonis. In 1988, the proud U.S. men's basketball team lost to the Soviet Legion led by Sabonis in Seoul, and David Robinson was the center.

After losing the game, Robinson did not run away or feel sorry for himself, he studied his opponents, especially Sabonis, and believed that the reason why the opponents were able to lead the team to victory was not because they were taller or stronger than him, but because they were more selfless and well-rounded.

Since then, Robinson has been focusing on the all-around direction, and although it has caused him the humiliation of being called a 'soft egg', he has become the most popular teammate among NBA stars, and it is this all-around that has allowed him to score 34 points, 10 blue boards, 10 assists, and 10 blocks!

Later, twenty years have passed, and there has been no quadruple-double miracle in the NBA, although during this period, there are Shark O'Neal's 28 points, 20 rebounds, 9 assists, and 8 blocks in Game 2 of the '01 Finals, Artest's 24 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists, and 8 steals when the Pacers vs. Heat on March 11, 02, Duncan's 21 points, 20 rebounds, 10 assists, and 8 blocks in the '03 Finals against the Nets, and Kirilenko's 15 points against Wolves Garnett on March 9, 06, 11 rebounds, 8 assists, 8 blocks, but no one has ever scored a quadruple-double again.

Even, as time went on, the near-quadruple-doubles became less and less, and after Kirilenko, it was Chris Paul who scored 33 points, 10 rebounds, 11 assists, and 7 steals against Kidd on January 15, 09.

Recalling the past, Chamberlain smiled, patted Carter on the shoulder and said, "Okay, then four pairs!" Today I'm going to get a quad pair! ”

This is a good opportunity, among the four doubles, scoring and rebounding are the easiest, Chamberlain can't get double-digit steals, the rest is double-digit assists and blocks, assists are good to say, as long as teammates give strength, then there is a chance to win this number.

However, it is difficult to get a double-double, and Chamberlain has more than 20 games with more than 8 blocks in three seasons, a staggering number, but only one game with more than 10 blocks.

This game has this opportunity again, because the Wizards have a group of new troops who are not afraid of death, the old birds will be passive once they are hated twice, their edges and corners have been smoothed, not like the newcomers are as strong as the blood, the newcomers are newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, the more you cover them, the more energetic they are.

The Warriors' possession of the ball, Curry controlled the ball and ran through the front court and passed it to Carter, who pulled forward and did not attack, but passed the ball to Chamberlain on the inside.

Chamberlain held the ball and shook his shoulders quickly to the left and right, and suddenly turned from the left side to the basket, seeing this, McGee followed, at this time Curry flexibly killed, Chamberlain attracted the bag and then divided the ball, Curry jumped quickly and threw the ball into the hoop.

Wizards fans let out shrill boos, along with shouts of 'defend'.

Wall ran to the front court with the ball, he tentatively stepped forward to break through, Curry took a delicate cross step to block him tightly, and under Bowen's careful tuning, Curry's defense got better and better.

Arenas stepped forward to answer, and Carter stuck to him, and when he saw this, the general laughed and said, "Vince, you are too close to me, this is - looking for death!" ”

As the words fell, Arenas took a sharp step, like an arrow from a string, and quickly passed Carter, who was clinging to him, and rushed to the basket.

The shape is critical, the Warriors' defense is basically pressed on the outside, and Chamberlain is not in the heart, and their restricted area is blank at the moment.

Arenas saw the opportunity, all the way to the lead into the penalty area, when he jumped Carter yelled 'pull you down', this is the old bird's trick, the general player quickly breaks into the penalty area is a violent dunk to end the game, but if you shout such a sentence, the opponent often chooses to throw or shoot instead of dunk.

After all, the dunk is the ball in the hand all the time, in case the opponent really pulls someone, it can only be a foul, and the throw has a chance to win 2+1.

This trick is very useful, because breaking through the dunk is very demoralizing.

This time Carter shouted this, but it was not to avoid being demoralized by Arenas, speaking of which, their morale was too high, and they really needed Arenas to give a blow to alert everyone.

Carter shouted this to give Chamberlain a chance to create a zĂ o!

Arenas throws, and a figure rushes up from the flank, waving his big hand, and the hot pot is baked!
