Chapter 112: How far do you think our two partners can go?
It's not just Kevin Durant who is so surprised, so out of shape.
At the home of the Salakmento Kings, Artest, who was looking forward to entering the octagon with Li Wan day and night, learned the news from reporters, but he didn't speak for a long time.
His current career-high is 39 points, and he remembers that night, feeling like he had scored so many goals and was so tired that he thought he had scored 50 points.
The result was only 39 points......
Scoring 39 points is already extremely difficult for him, and 50 points are ......
I don't dare to think about it, but it's really not something that can be done easily.
And this rookie, but in the first season of his career, in the middle of the third month, did it!
He must admit that this rookie still has something.
It turns out that there is indeed a big difference between a bastard and a jerk.
Even if Artest let Li Wan do it, he still chose to bow his head in front of 52 points.
When Rashid Wallace heard about what Lee Wan was doing at Madison Place, he just glanced at the reporter and asked, "Who is the opponent?" ”
The reporter told him that it was the New York Knicks.
He shook his head disdainfully and sneered.
Although his career's highest single-game score is only 42 points, he still thinks that Li Wan's 52 points are nothing remarkable!
It's just a matter of hitting the Knicks......
"If he wants to prove himself, he has to beat the Pistons first! He was nothing until he defeated us! ”
Li Wan was not at all surprised when he heard what Rashid Wallace said.
He remembers clearly that later LeBron James "miraculously" achieved the MVP of the Finals in three teams, becoming the first player in history to complete this achievement.
But the retired Rasheed Wallace still bluntly said, "LeBron James can't have achieved this in our time, he may play famously, but that's all." ”
Then he thought that Westbrook, who had a "triple-double", was the best player in the league......
You know, on the eve of what he said, it was when he was about to become a scout for the Lakers.
But he still said this, which shows how much he looks down on LeBron James.
The reason for this is probably that he once cleaned up "Young Zhan" during the regular season......
He is a stereotype of anyone, and when he first sees you, he thinks you can do it, just do it. Otherwise, you will always think that you are lucky.
Of course, in addition to him, the attitude of more people is stunned, surprised, surprised, and even shocked.
When Barbossa, who had just defeated Li Wan, heard the news, his hands were crossed on his waist, and his hands never left his waist, and the whole person solidified into a "Wangfu Stone".
Mainly he remembers that after the Suns won the away challenge to the Lakers, he seemed to provoke Li Wan, and this time he met ......
Or do you want to pretend to be sick?
Seriously, let him and Artest oppose, he wasn't so afraid.
If this Huaxia newcomer really hits him with this state, then he will definitely not be able to prevent it, and the key question is ...... This guy not only tortures you physically, once the flesh has the upper hand, he immediately verbally attacks you, destroys you mentally, and speaks so "nicely", which is really torturous.
He thought about whether to ask someone for Li Wan's number and send him a message: I admit that I was a little loud talking to you at the beginning.
"Bang, detonated again, Li Wan scored 52 points in a single game, becoming the second rookie to score 50 points in a single game in his rookie season since the establishment of the NBA! 》
"The second youngest "Mr. 50 Points" in history, but this man is still only a rookie season! 》
"52 points in a single game, the audience chanted "MVP", supernova Li Wan conquered Madison Square for once! 》
……
The next day, the shock continued to escalate.
50 plus per game is not so easy to get.
In addition to Chamberlain's entire career 118 times 50 plus.
Michael Jordan, who was in second place, plummeted to 31.
Bryant ended up with only 25 times in his entire career.
A "basketball god", a second-time scoring guard in history, famous for his ability to score, and only about twenty or thirty times in his entire career.
It's all top-notch.
As for the second-tier super scorers, like Carmelo Anthony, there are only four times in his entire career.
It can be seen how difficult it is to add 50 in a single game!
But the reason why Li Wan caused continuous shock was not just that he won a single 50+.
Crawford has won four or five single-game 50 plus on different teams, but the media has not promoted it so much.
You must know that this time ESPN gave the front page headlines to report on this matter, and on the cover of the headlines, the entire poster of Li Wan was given, and the people who can make ESPN pay so much attention are superstars in the past.
Li Wan's single game is 50 plus, which brings more than just this number.
There's a lot more to it than just numbers......
First of all, in the NBA for so many years, before Li Wan, only one rookie got a single game 50 plus in his rookie season.
That person is none other than Allen Iverson, who won the champion signing in 96 years by beating Kobe Bryant and other super talents!
As a rookie, he made a splash in the game against the Cleveland Cavaliers on 17-of-32 shooting, scoring 50 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds.
Others, like Michael Jordan, had a rookie season high of just 49 points, which was one point short, but it was just a difference!
This is also the reason why Jennings was immediately identified as the core of the team by the Bucks after scoring 55 points in his rookie season.
Another is Li Wan's age, 20 years and 81 days, which is one day longer than the current "youngest Mr. 50 points" LeBron James, but when LeBron James was 20 years old, he had already played in the league for a season and had more game experience in comparison.
Therefore, although Li Wan is one day older, the difficulty is much greater.
Also, it's time to talk about the place where he fought!
Madison Square Garden ......
The "mecca of basketball" for American fans.
Li Wan didn't feel much about it, but all the stars of the 90s, including Michael Jordan, were proud to conquer Madison Square!
Cutting 50 plus here is much bigger than cutting 50 plus anywhere else!
Not to mention that last night, the New York fans gave Li Wan a whole shout, and the "MVP" that resounded throughout the audience several times in the future.
In short, before tonight, there may be a lot more to say about Li Wan.
For fans who are not familiar with the NBA, the first impression may be "the Chinese player who shot the killer shot in the NCAA Finals".
Fans who are familiar with the NBA, first impression: the rookie selected by the Lakers, the nerve knife, can fight against Allen Iverson; When it was sluggish, he was invisible in the whole court and could only score eight or nine points.
As for Lakers fans, their first impression: the Lakers' most successful draft pick since '96!
And after tonight, all Americans, as long as they pay attention to the sports circle, will have a unified impression of Li Wan: that rookie season in Madison Garden Square scored 52 points in a single game of the Chinese superstar!
Public opinion exploded, and many supergiants expressed their opinions on this matter.
Kobe Bryant was asked last night for his opinion on Li Wan's teammate, and Kobe Bryant just said: "He is indeed still at the age when he will be reported for 50 points in a single game." ”
If it weren't for seeing him working hard for Li Wan on the field, everyone might have really believed him to think so.
But now, they only have three words hidden in their hearts: death tsundere!
As the next day was reported in the media, Allen Iverson, the first person in NBA history to unlock a 50-point achievement in a single game in his rookie season, did not skimp on his praise: "This newcomer is incredible, he can go further, maybe, become a great player, maybe he can!" ”
This one is highly rated.
No, it should be said, quite high!
Allen Iverson is already a great player in his own right.
In addition, LeBron James showed his pattern, although the experience of meeting Li Wan on the court was not very pleasant, he expressed his appreciation for Li Wan: "This is really cool, my rookie season high score is only 38 points? 40 points? Because I have experienced it, so I know, it was really hard, Lee showed his incredibleness and am looking forward to his future! ”
His words don't seem to be as exaggerated as Allen Iverson said, but he is already a supergiant in the league, and he took the initiative to compare his rookie season with Li Wan as a foil.
Seriously, when Li Wan saw the report, he almost couldn't hold back and shouted, "Good brother!" ”
It's not for nothing that LeBron can have so many brothers in the league......
His emotional intelligence is not ordinarily high!
DeLong was silent when he saw the newspaper report about Li Wan's 52 points in a single game.
Li Wan's trash words sounded in his mind: "If you look down, you will find that the rookie climbs up much faster than you think!" ”
Li Wan also proved his words.
This rookie, the speed at which he climbs up, is indeed much better than that of the average rookie!
Kevin Durant's career high of 33 points was naturally covered up, and the mainstream media gave all the pages that could be squeezed out to Li Wan.
Also affected was Oden, who had a good performance last night: 25 points and 10 rebounds.
This is the second time he has cut 25 plus 10 stats.
No one cares except the Portlanders!
"Sports Illustrated" even communicated with Taryn again and invited Li Wan to shoot the cover of the latest issue. After this time, Li Wan will become the star with the most appearances in Sports Illustrated this season.
This is the influence that Li Wan caused on the side of the United States.
It's like the atomic bomb that exploded in Hiroshima!
Also exploded was the 9.6 million square kilometers of land on the other side of the ocean.
On January 10, "Sports News", "Sports News" and "News Network" successively broadcast the news that Li Wan scored 52 points in a single game in the Los Angeles Lakers' away game against the New York Knicks.
This moment......
The fans who usually watch the game are naturally shocked and excited, and all that is left in their minds is "Li Wanniu Beer!" ”
And people who don't usually pay attention to basketball, because the news is overwhelming, are also a little curious, find a friend who understands football, and ask, "How powerful is Li Wan's 52 points in a single game?" ”
They know it's powerful when they hear it, but they don't know how powerful it is.
The friends who know the ball basically answer the same thing: "Yao Ming, you know, right?" He has been playing in the NBA for 6 years, and his highest single-game score is 41 points, which is 11 points worse than Li Wan, and in the history of the NBA, he is also the rookie with the highest single-game score in his rookie season! ”
Let's put it this way......
"He is now equivalent to Liu Xiang in the basketball world!"
May be an exaggeration.
But this metaphor is explained to those laymen, which is very suitable, because everyone intuitively feels how powerful Li Wan is to score 52 points in a single game!
The most important thing is that he is so young and so powerful......
Li Wan has a bright future!
With such a powerful person, there's nothing wrong with getting into an All-Star starter, right?
Huh?
That's not right!
We're only in third place in the Western Conference right now, behind Kobe Bryant and Allen Iverson!
"Everyone praises, don't fall behind in voting!"
"This kind of result can't make it into the All-Star starter, so the All-Star weekend is too boring!"
"You have one vote, I have one vote, and I will make my debut tomorrow!"
The whirlwind of voting for Li Wan in China is blowing even stronger.
Su Qun looked at the overwhelming comments on the Internet, pinching his teeth, with a look of pity, he sighed again and again when he was the editor-in-chief of the "Basketball Pioneer": "If only Li Wan had been one day earlier!" ”
Not only that, but he will become the youngest "Mr. 50" in the NBA.
At the same time, "Basketball Herald" can also gain a wave of popularity.
As the largest basketball newspaper in China, Basketball Herald is published twice a week, on Monday and Thursday.
Today is Thursday, and before Li Wan scored 52 points, the Basketball Herald released its latest issue, and the next issue will not be until next Monday, January 15. It has been 5 days since Li Wan scored 52 points in a single game.
This wave of popularity obviously has nothing to do with them.
However, Su Qun's mind turned quickly, and he immediately decided to send an interview team to the United States, and in the next issue of "Basketball Herald", he decided to fully decipher the front and back of the stage where Li Wan scored 52 points.
Here in the United States, the Internet is also very lively.
It's not just about voting.
And also......
Kenny Smith's bet with Bill Simmons!
As long as Li Wan scores more than 30 points in a single game, Bill Simmons has to kiss the ass like Kenny Smith!
Now Li Wanke not only scored more than 30 points in a single game, he has 52 points in a single game......
Bill Simmons, isn't it time to put it on the agenda!
At that time, a group of netizens gathered under Bill Simmons' various social software accounts and began to urge, which roughly means: You have the ability to make a gambling contract, you have the ability to punish, don't hide behind the computer and keep quiet, I know you're watching, hum! Kiss the ass of the donkey, kiss the ass of the donkey, kiss the ass of the donkey! You have the ability to bet, why don't you have the ability to fulfill the punishment? Bill Simmons, don't hide behind your computer and be silent, I know you're watching!
The result of the urging was a photo of Bill Simmons lying in a hospital bed.
Yesterday he couldn't accept this result, fainted on the spot, and just woke up in the hospital bed, and the doctor advised that it was best not to be irritated before being discharged.
For this result, netizens are naturally unwilling, Barkley fulfilled his promise, Kenny Smith also punished, why didn't Bill Simmons do it?
If you don't do it, it's okay!
Get out of the circle!
One by one, they sent letters of complaint to ESPN demanding the firing of Bill Simmons.
In just one morning, ESPN reportedly received thousands of complaints calling for Bill Simmons to be fired.
ESPN finally issued an announcement: Bill Simmons will fulfill his promise when his body recovers.
Internally, they actually want Bill Simmons to take the promise.
Look at Kenny Smith and Barkley next door, how hot it is to kiss the donkey's butt!
As long as Bill Simmons kisses, he may become "ESPN's Barkley"!
As soon as ESPN's announcement came out, the urging immediately quieted down.
They turned around and ran to Li Wan's Twitter account again, and praised them all the time.
It is worth mentioning that 52 points in a single game made Li Wan's Twitter account rise by 500,000 fans overnight, and it has reached 2.5 million, Twitter has just started to open in 06, and there is still a big gap between it and "must die" on the card, and many of the top streamers in the United States only have three or four million followers here.
After Li Wan overnight, he became a "half-step top stream".
There is not much gap with the league supergiants like Kobe and LeBron.
It can be seen how hot he is now.
It is also for this reason that Li Wan's Twitter is now receiving commercial promotion, and it starts with 200,000 dollars.
Yes, even if it's just a retweet for promotion, it will cost 200,000 dollars!
But even so, Tyrona still has four or five commercial promotions, waiting to be released!
Li Wan finally paid 2 million in taxes, and 10% of the team's contract was handed over to the league, about 140,000, which doesn't matter, because this is equivalent to pension insurance.
After NBA players retire from the NBA, they can get a sum of money every year in the future, and this money is related to the 10% handed over to the league every year, and the longer the player plays, the more money he can get every year.
This is also done to prevent some players from going bankrupt after retirement, and to ensure that they can still make ends meet.
But even so, there are still many players who go bankrupt as soon as they retire......
Excluding the 2.14 million, plus buying a house in Los Angeles, paying a fine, and Tyron's commission, as well as various expenses, Li Wankari has less than 1.3 million left.
Although I signed a Nike contract, the money didn't come in one go.
This nearly 1 million commercial promotion is really "timely rain", which has brought Li Wan's account back to more than 2 million.
I have to say that NBA stars can make money, but they do have a lot of expenses.
Li Wan is already quite restrained, and the number of times he goes to the nightclub is about once a week, while Odom and they have to report and throw money almost every night.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that bankruptcy is not without reason!
100 million is worry-free for ordinary people, and for NBA stars, it is once owned......
turned off Twitter, Li Wan turned over and continued to sleep.
After playing the New York Knicks last night, they left for Philadelphia, which was their fourth away game in a "seven-game road streak".
The fatigue of the journey gradually eroded the entire Lakers team, so Phil Jackson canceled the no-game day training schedule so that everyone could have a good rest.
Of course......
It's also so that the Lakers, who love adventure, can come back in the early hours of the next morning and get a good night's sleep.
The regular season is all about the game and the women, and that's the same for any player.
Kobe Bryant is self-disciplined, right?
Occasionally, it's a 4 a.m. Los Angeles.
But when she divorced Vanessa later, Vanessa broke the news in front of the media that Kobe Bryant had at least 160 mistresses throughout the United States, and she also asked a private investigator to photograph 2 of Kobe's trysts with Kobe as evidence.
Regardless of whether the numbers Vanessa said are watery or not, or Kobe Bryant has handled things more safely since the Eagle County incident, giving every woman the name of mistress.
But 160 women over the years, in fact, is a lot.
Even since 96, Kobe Bryant has had to give birth to 12 mistresses every year.
The self-disciplined "Black Mamba" is still like this, not to mention the other players.
Odom 7 a night is a common occurrence.
Every player in the NBA is struggling with Zhang Dashuai as the goal.
Li Wan has not touched a woman since he came out of Los Angeles away, and he knows very well that his current indulgence is equivalent to shortening his career after the age of 30.
So even though Odom specially gave him a "52 minutes night" last night and prepared 52 women for him, Li Wan's choice was to go back to the hotel to sleep.
Of course, there is a more important reason......
Li Wan is really not good!
He knew that men couldn't say no, but they really couldn't......
How tired was he?
Ohio's "Three Little Ones", Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, and Taylor Swift have all sent him congratulatory messages, but he hasn't returned yet.
James Harden's 60-plus-triple-double night, at the end of the game, his whole leg and stomach were trembling, scoring a ball and stumbling, looking like that, but whenever someone hit him, he immediately lay on the ground and couldn't get up.
That's still the peak James Harden, his physical fitness is definitely better than Li Wan, and he looks like that after the game.
Although Li Wan's data is not so explosive, and he is still lazy on the defensive end, in the last quarter, the confrontation of these guys directly escalated, far more intense than the average regular season.
Before last night, Li Wan had experienced the highest intensity in the "Christmas War" game against the Celtics.
It's a little weak after the fight.
The intensity of this final quarter is definitely higher than that one.
It shows how much the Knicks' players don't want him to score 50 points in a single game.
Feeling like your body is being hollowed out......
This was the first thought that came to Li Wan's mind after the buzzing sound.
So much so that even after a sleep, he still feels that the bed is his only destination now.
That's it, after a crazy night, Li Wan, who has been being talked about by the outside media all day today, spent a whole day in bed.
So much so that Odom knocked on his door before going to the nightclub at night: "Man, I almost hit 911!" ”
But the impact he had had on him was clearly still ongoing.
The next morning, all kinds of reports were dazzling:
"Granger, the new king of the Pacers, shot 4 of 17, Artest dreamed of returning to the top, with 7 steals in the game! 》
"Allen Iverson Utah Plateau slashed 51 points, compared to Denver, Utah's altitude is still a bit low! 》
"25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, LeBron James hit the 27th "triple-double" of his career"
""Brazilian Lightning" hits Toronto at night, scoring 30 points in 21 minutes, pointing to the "best sixth man"
……
There is no doubt that last night was a "data night".
The players who praised Li Wan in front of the media cameras, or felt stunned because of it, all played a bigger performance than usual in last night's game.
It can't be said that all the reasons are because of Li Wan.
But their outbreak is definitely inseparable from Li Wan's "catfish".
On January 12, after resting in bed for a day yesterday, Li Wan recovered well, but encountered the "law of conservation of character".
Tonight's basket was not very friendly to Li Wan, so he demolished his house with a turtle and rebuilt a new one, which was simply "built in the cover".
Li Wan had reason to suspect that there was an invisible lid on the basket that covered the goal.
Fortunately, "52 points" Yu Wei is still there, coupled with the past "nerve knife" label, even if he is very iron, the 76ers still guard him tightly.
Li Wan seized the opportunity, threaded the needle in various ways, and showed off his vision.
In the end, 95-89, the Lakers narrowly defeated the Philadelphia 76ers by 6 points.
Li Wan made 4 of 14 shots from the field, and relied on 4 of 5 free throws to score 12 points.
But he had 11 assists. Li Wan himself didn't expect that the first "two doubles" of his career would be won under such circumstances.
11 assists, six of which went to Bryant.
It is often Li Wan's pass, and Kobe Bryant can get into the frame when he catches the ball and throws it.
Kobe Bryant can play without the ball, after all, he is a "second-in-command" background, and when Harris was forced on the bench in the early days, he didn't even have offensive tactics formulated with him as the core.
Cutting without the ball, catching and shooting, he can do these off-ball means, and he uses them very well.
Later, when the Lakers team's "new F4", when he played without the ball with Steve Nash, the average shooting rate once reached more than 54%.
It's a pity that Steve Nash's back injury at that time has reached the point of threatening his career, and the "Warcraft" wants to be happy and the boss position, and the atmosphere in the team is not very harmonious.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
After a season was not played, the "new F4" disintegrated. - From this, it can be seen that the ability to coordinate teammates is indeed inferior to Michael Jordan.
Jordan's last championship in 98, if it is replaced by Kobe, even if he has the same talent as Jordan, it is estimated that he will not be able to win the championship.
That season, the management had to rebuild, and once reached the point where all except Michael Jordan were kicked out, and there was no harmony in the team, Pippen hated little money, and there were conflicts with Rodman......
That's what makes Michael Jordan great.
He has great skills on the pitch and a double business online.
Of course, it's just Michael Jordan in the '90s.
Michael Jordan after his comeback in '03, or even '01, can't be counted.
Squeeze your teammates, more Kobe than Kobe!
Li Wan's continuous "feeding the ball" allowed Kobe Bryant to score a high score of 43 points.
And Kobe, who finished the high score this time, did not have a gloomy face, but showed a smile.
In this game, he can feel that he is not fighting alone!
He was "full" to eat......
On January 13, the impact of Li Wan's 52 points in a single game continued, and the Knicks management officially issued a document: The cooperation with Mr. Thomas in the past five years has been very pleasant, and I wish you a bright future and new brilliance.
Standard-standard PR documents.
The Knicks have entered a new era, with Donnie Walsh, who worked with Larry Bird with the Pacers, at the helm of New York for the next few years.
The media jokingly said: "Li Wan's battle for fame has ruined Thomas's management career!" ”
Although the Knicks' press spokesman said that "this personnel change has been discussed for a long time and has nothing to do with Li Wan's 52 points", the media just didn't believe it.
New York fans rushed to tell each other and cried with joy.
Without him, it's entirely because the Knicks in Thomas's era really can't see any light.
Now, the clouds have receded, and the sky is dawning!
Li Wan didn't have much feeling, and he didn't have the happy psychology of "revenge", Thomas didn't choose his revenge, and he had already reported it. There's just one thing......
He now understands why Phil Jackson has to go into management!
is also a player retired, a head coach debuted, Thomas's ability, in New York, he is still a head coach, as the head coach with the most championship rings in this league, how can he swallow this breath?
On January 14, the Lakers, who had made a circle in the East, returned to the West Coast, which meant that their "seven-game tour" trip was getting closer and closer to the end.
Everyone's faces were tired, even the veterans who had been in the league for seven or eight years.
January is the "fatigue period" of every season.
Rookies hit the "rookie wall" during this time, and the league also has the highest injury frequency during this time.
For example, the "Chinese Derby" Rockets that the Lakers will face next.
Maddie barely finished playing in December before getting injured and barely played in January.
When he was about to return, Da Yao suffered a season-reimbursed injury.
This was the league's "injury wave" in January and February.
However, Houston fans are happy......
Maddie's injury, in January, the whole team only revolves around Da Yao, but their record is very good, as of the time of playing the Lakers, they have a total of 7 games, including a "back-to-back", only one game lost.
Yao Ming averaged 25.4 points and 12.1 rebounds per game and just won the "Player of the Week Award" in the latest week.
If the future continues, then at the end of January, Yao Ming will receive the second "Player of the Month" award of his career.
It can be seen how strong Da Yao is this month!
But Adelman is still tinkering with his "Princeton system" to put Yao Ming in a high position.
This was the case in the first half of the game, many rounds, Yao Ming took the ball for the first time in the high post, symbolically playing the opening run of "Princeton", and the Rockets entered the traditional "positional battle" mode.
This greatly consumed Yao Ming's physical energy.
It was not enough to play four quarters, but now it is stunned to let the "Princeton System" play three quarters.
Da Yao has a good temper, but if Li Wan is replaced, he has already entered the best second and third formations, and he has already submitted the transaction application so that the management can choose.
With Adelman's assist, the Lakers won the game by four points.
You must know that when Yao Ming didn't have physical problems in the early stage, the Rockets once led by almost 10 points, such a big advantage, Yao Ming was stunned after a few times, and he didn't play.
Yao Ming's impact on the combat power of this rocket team is really too great......
It is worth mentioning that the upcoming "22 consecutive wins" later became the capital of many "Maddie fans" boasting about Maddy's single-core ability to lead the team.
Because of this "22-game winning streak", he missed the first game of the beginning, the game against the Warriors on January 30.
And Yao Ming played 12 games, and he was reimbursed for the season, which was completely due to Maddie alone.
But in fact, in the whole '07 game, the Rockets only ranked 10th in the West.
In January, Maddie was plagued by injuries and stopped and stopped, Yao Ming took the team to 13 wins and 3 losses, and won the "Player of the Month Award" with an average of 25 plus 12 per game, and the last game in January, the beginning of the dream "22 consecutive wins", played the Warriors, Yao Ming got 36 points and 14 rebounds "big double-double".
Without a whopping 82 percent win rate in January, how could the Rockets' morale recover from 10th in the West?
How is it possible to play the next 22 consecutive wins?
In Li Wan's view, the Rockets' 22-game winning streak was originally a thick accumulation, which allowed the Rockets to find a way to win in January, and it broke out logically in February and March.
This season's Rockets are not weak, in terms of combat power configuration, Yao Ming has his best helper on the offensive end "Diamond" Scola, and Taobao has picked up the "Divine Bird" Landry; There is Battier on the outside defense, Maddy on offense, and Alston is also the Rockets' best passer besides Maddy......
If it weren't for the sudden change of coach and injuries, this would have been the most promising year for the Rockets.
Da Yao Sai later greeted Li Wan and lost the game, but his mood was not affected too much. Single-core led the team, with 6 wins and 2 losses in the first 8 games, normal people will feel that this result is acceptable.
The person next to me can't accept it!
Li Wan glanced at Kobe Bryant quickly, very quickly, Kobe didn't even notice the extent, and complained in his heart.
If Kobe Bryant wins first and then loses tonight, his face will definitely be so cold that the water will freeze into ice.
Lakers win 5 in a row!
Li Wan scored 20 points tonight and handed out nine assists, five of which went to Kobe.
And on January 16, in the game between the Lakers and the Warriors, after Kobe Bryant received 5 assists from Li Wan again, the media also began to notice this phenomenon.
They all think that as the game deepens, Li Wan and Kobe Bryant gradually develop chemistry. Many media even believe that Kobe Bryant ushered in the best backcourt partner of his career.
With the results of the third phase of the All-Star Starter Poll, the Los Angeles Times pushed the atmosphere to its climax.
Li Wan scored 52 points at Madison Square, causing a huge sensation in the voting results at this stage, which was also fully reflected.
His increase in votes in the third phase is the highest in the entire league, reaching almost 900,000, and Allen Iverson is already very strong in the third stage, more than 700,000, fifth in the league, but it is still very different from Li Wan, Li Wan and him were originally 70,000 or 80,000 votes, after this round, Li Wan not only made up for this gap, but also surpassed Allen Iverson by nearly 70,000 votes.
As a result, the Western All-Star starting guard line has become two guards for the Los Angeles Lakers: Kobe Bryant and Lee Wan.
The Los Angeles Times uploaded a photo of the Lakers and the Rockets in between games, with Li Wan and Kobe Bryant sitting side by side, looking at the photos on the court with the same expression.
Caption: Kobe Bryant and his "Pippen"!
Yes, in the past three games, Li Wan, who has averaged five or six assists per game, has been called "Kobe's Pippen" by the Los Angeles Times!
They believe that the Lakers will lead the way to success under the leadership of these two men.
The 6-game winning streak away from home is proof of that!
Before the start of the "7 Consecutive Passengers", did anyone think that this would be the result?
During this time, Li Wan's data were:
Playing Nets, Li Wan had 21 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists;
Playing the Pacers, Li Wan had 18 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists;
Playing New York, Li Wan had 52 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists;
Playing Philadelphia, Li Wan had 12 points, 4 rebounds and 11 assists;
Playing the Rockets, Li Wan had 20 points, 5 rebounds and 9 assists;
Playing the Golden State Warriors, Li Wan had 16 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists;
In the total of 6 games, he averaged 23.1 points, 4.6 rebounds and 7.3 assists per game, shooting 41.4% per game and 39.8% from three-point range per game.
In fact, the hit rate can be a little higher.
It's just that the "four consecutive visitors" are finished, and there is a single game with 52 points overdrawn by the body, Li Wan's entire state is seriously affected by fatigue, and he scored 20 points and 16 points in the next two games, but the shooting rate is only about 36%, which also lowers the average shooting rate per game.
Interestingly, if this was normal, it would have made the media erupt a long time ago, but because he had just scored 52 points, and won both of them, plus squeezed Allen Iverson into the top two All-Star guards in the West, everyone selectively ignored this matter.
With this data, it can indeed be called "little Pippen".
When Li Wan heard it, he scolded fiercely: GTMD Pippen!
Don't you want to be the boss of the team and make a name for yourself, and be a second-in-command here?
These media don't think he's so small, right?
Let me be "Pippen" and wait for me!
Sooner or later, Lao Tzu proves that he is "Jordan"!
The final game of the Lakers' "7 consecutive road games", the New Orleans Hornets, who are ranked second in the West.
A tough bone.
Before gnawing on this bone, the ESPN drama "played out", and Bill Simmons, who was discharged from the hospital, fulfilled his promise: kissing the ass of a donkey.
Like TNT, ESPN sent cameras to follow the camera, but Lee refused to appear on camera to show his disdain for Bill Simmons.
This Biren has been slandering Da Yao and other Chinese players since 02, a living clown who jumps off the beam, and Li Wan doesn't want to have too much interaction with him.
TNT's "golden duo" Kenny Smith and Barkley were proud of this when they learned about it, and when they commented on the Lakers' game against the Hornets, they had an impromptu dance in the studio.
The Lakers lost badly tonight.
They were already exhausted by the journey of the "7 Consecutive Passengers", and in the face of the "wild bee swarm" of Chris Paul's tandem, they simply could not build an effective defense.
Especially on the inside, David West and Tyson Chandler were in the "sauna bath", one scored 25 points, and the other scored 16 points, just the inside line, let the opposite starter score 41 points.
On the outside, Li Wan faced Chris Paul and was directly beaten.
is not only the reason for the "7 consecutive guests", Li Wan feels that he can recharge his energy and match Chris Paul well, and it is estimated that he can't prevent it.
This "58 cannon" was really strong before he was injured, his physical fitness was good, his dribbling was strong, and his ability to combine passing and personal offense was probably already ranked first in the league.
Li Wan couldn't guard him, but he could prevent Li Wan, all kinds of uncomfortable small actions behind him, Li Wan couldn't even stabilize the dribble, he felt that he was against Chris-
Paul, unless you can squeeze him away, it's really hard to break through his defense in the future.
With Li Wan's current physical fitness, he will definitely not be able to do this.
However, the 33 points in a single game have been completed;
The average data per game has long been up to standard;
Playing time is also not an issue;
The number of starts, so far, has also surged to 25, which is 31 short of the mission's 56 starts.
With 42 games to play, Levan feels that the biggest variable in completing this task is whether Pau Gasol will come to the Lakers......
Once this task is completed, Li Wan can upgrade the template and have better physical fitness when the time comes......
The buzz sounded, and the game was over, the Lakers lost 15 points in New Orleans, and Li Wan had 11 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds, and was completely blown out by Chris Paul, who had 25 points, 11 assists and 3 steals on the opposite side.
He looked at the back of the latter greeting Kobe, and said secretly in his heart: Wait, little cannon, wait for me to upgrade again, let's practice alone!
Levan decided to gain some more weight this summer, along with better fitness, yes, that's right! He wants Chris Paul to feel the sense of desperation that Deron Williams brings to him in him!
Of course, this thought also flashed through his mind, and he just wanted to empty his brain now.
Whether to lose or win this game, he didn't want to think about it for a long time, and now he has only one thought in his mind: "7 consecutive guests" is finally over!
Is that the price of playing for the Lakers to enjoy high exposure?
Li Wan suddenly felt that it was more comfortable to be in the same big city, or New York......
He was so tired that when a reporter asked him how he felt about being in the same position as Chris Paul, he waved his hand weakly: "He's definitely strong, but I just want to go back to Los Angeles and have a good rest right now!" ”
Kobe Bryant is also rare and did not hang his face after the game, and he also has no strength to hang his face.
Li Wan estimated that this was one of the few times he didn't want to win and just wanted to sleep.
Kobe Bryant has been playing in this league for 12 seasons, and he has to play once a year, and he is still tired like this, which shows how terrifying the "7 consecutive aways" are.
Think about it, even if it's a tour, you have to play one city for 2 days, and at the same time take at least a few hours to travel to the next city, so you can't stand it for 14 days.
Not to mention, they are not tourists, but play every two days.
On January 19, the Lakers returned to Los Angeles and still had a day off to rest the players.
When I woke up, it was already 11 o'clock in the morning, and from more than 3 o'clock in the morning to now, almost 8 hours, Li Wan was vain~ I plan to release the inventory of the past half a month.
I just took out my phone and looked at it for a long time......
Taylor Swift went to the company's headquarters in New York to negotiate a contract, and I don't know when he will be back;
Scarlett not only covets his body, but also his people, and he can't take the initiative to tease such a woman;
Aisha also simply cooperated, although the woman said that she wanted to continue to make her pay, and she could continue to find her, but if he really took the initiative, he was afraid that he would ask him to help him next time, and he couldn't refuse;
Jenna is still too young, although Li Wan really wants to raise her, but he really doesn't have much time, he himself is now in the career development period, and it is impossible to see her often or something;
……
Only then did Li Wan realize that he had joined the alliance and provoked so many women, but none of them could immediately accompany him to gallop and dash when he needed it.
Of course, the main thing is that the relationship has not gone further, if it is a boyfriend and girlfriend, Li Wanda can make a phone call and ask to meet or something.
*The premise of every time you do things is that both sides are free......
Knowing that there was business on the other side or that he was busy, Li Wan naturally couldn't call over.
There aren't enough fish in the fish pond!
Li Wan thought about whether to go to a nightclub and expand some fish.
Bryant called him instead.
After recovering his physical strength, he thought of the last game he lost to the Hornets, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, so he asked Li Wan to practice at the Toyota Arena at 4 a.m. tomorrow.
Li Wan knew that he couldn't escape this day.
But it's okay, if he returns the favor of the Knicks earlier, he won't have to worry, he was suddenly called to 4 o'clock in the morning one day.
It's just that in this way, the nightclub obviously can't go.
He had lunch and looked for a "Fantastic Four 2" that was just released last year, and watched it with relish, although he already knew that it was computer-synthesized, Jessica Alba was really in good shape, and she was just named "the sexiest woman in America" last year.
Halfway through it, Taylor called him and asked him what he was doing, and after he finished speaking, Taylor immediately found "Fantastic Four 2" and asked Li Wan to accompany her to watch it again from the beginning.
No anti-theft
Then he also took his phone and texted to chat with him.
I don't know if it's Li Wan's illusion, going back to Jessica Alba's role, the number of words in her text messages is always very large......
Li Wan thought about it, and after watching "Fantastic Four", he told Taylor to watch "Titanic", and it turned out that good guy, in the sketch of Little Lizi, Taylor directly came to a "small composition".
After watching "Titanic", Taylor said that his hands were sore and he had to rest for a while.
This movie is sour......
Well......
Something strange seems to be there!
4 a.m. on January 20.
Li Wan appeared at the stadium on time, and when Kobe Bryant came, he actually brought him breakfast.
He didn't seem to let him bring it this time, did he?
Hey, this "snake" is too easy to tame, right?
Before Li Wan was finished, the training officially began, and Kobe Bryant was as ruthless as ever, and he collapsed on the ground again.
To Li Wan's surprise, Kobe Bryant actually took a bottle of water and put it next to him.
Well?
Ghosts!
There's no way Kobe Bryant I know can be so attentive.
Li Wan suspected that there was something wrong with the water.
Kobe Bryant turned his head at this time: "Rookie, how far do you think our two partners can go?" ”
*!
Let's just say it's not so kind!
Originally thinking about making me a Pippen?
However, in this case, there should be no problem with the water.
Li Wan first unscrewed it and poured a big mouthful, and then said: "It's hard to say, we haven't encountered any powerful teams yet......"
The "7 Consecutive Visitors" except for the last Hornets are basically small fish and shrimp, and they lost the game with the Hornets.
Next, before All-Star Weekend, they will face the Celtics, Cavaliers and other league powerhouses, and only after playing them will they know how far the two of them can go.
Kobe nodded, and there was no surprise in his expression.
Kupchak trading slowed down, almost stalled, he was aware, but he didn't say anything for the reason...... It was this question he asked Li Wan......
Let's see how far he and Li Wan can go before All-Star Weekend......
"If you give me the right to fire unlimited fire for a year, maybe in two years I will be able to take you to the championship!"
Bryant's quiet thinking interrupted Li Wan's next words, rolled his eyes, and he got up to leave.
That's what he's talking about, it's just farting!
The Toyota Arena gradually quieted down, and the sky outside the arena slowly brightened.
The Lakers returned to Los Angeles for a day of rest and returned to their home court to take on the challenge of the Denver Nuggets.
Playing in Staples after half a month is not only very exciting for the fans, but also for the Lakers players.
In the audience on the sidelines tonight, there was also a person who Li Wan didn't expect - Yin Wanka.
The woman was holding his suit in her hand, and she was supposed to be returning it.
Li Wan looked at her eyes and silently muttered in his heart: I just said that there was a reason why I couldn't find anyone yesterday.
It's this woman!
God's arrangement is always unexpected.
