Chapter 399: Challenging Chamberlain's "Miracle"? No, I'm just adding a challenge to myself!
After the media release, there are 6 preseason games, and this year Columbus has rookie Brunson, so this stage is definitely reserved for him.
"Xiaobu" is still okay, averaging 28.9 minutes per game, can score 12.5 points, and the media of Columbus is overjoyed with this performance, because this is a rookie who was signed with the 29th pick in the first round.
This pick is a player of this quality.
It is equivalent to using the second round of lottery to "touch the prize".
With Brunson's quality, the Columbus Explorers must have earned it again this time.
Tyronn Lue watched Brunson's performance and couldn't help but sigh:
There is a difference between GOAT and GOAT!
He and Griffin are now in a bound relationship, and he naturally knows that Brunson is what Li Wan wants.
With this quality, he also has to say that Li Wan is awesome, but he is much better than those professionals, and he can choose one accurately!
Brogdon this year, Brunson this year......
When this news gets out later, Tyronn Lue believes that the media will react in the same way as him:
GOAT is also different from GOAT!
Li Wan only played 35.45 minutes in one "Huaxia trip", and easily cut a "big triple-double" of 42 points, 13 rebounds and 14 assists, but fans are more concerned about whether Li Wan will play in next year's World Championships.
It's about the men's basketball team's performance at the World Championships.
This time it's the World Championships on home, so ......
To be honest, this is also the most contradictory place for Li Wan, he knows the urine nature of Lan Xian, so he doesn't want to deal with it, just say that the original 23-year-old U19, the 19-year-old Zhao Weilun, a young player who has had regular career experience, was still pressed on the bench by the head coach in the case of excellent performance, and also said that he would have more time on the court if he practiced the defense again, but the problem was that Zhao Weilun shot 9 out of 10 in this game, and scored 18 points in the final quarter, not to mention whether his defense is good or not, but if he is a coach, no, but if he is a person, we all know that this is a "big killer" on the offensive end, arrange some tactics for him on the offensive end, arrange some people to make up for him on the defensive end, and then watch him show off.
Or say it anyway, a good cabbage makes the pig arch!
When a "pig" meets a "good cabbage", it is destined to do something that raises blood pressure, which is due to personality.
The youth training system is all rotten, what do you expect from above?
But as a fan, he knows how sad it is to be eliminated from the game at home!
Ask yourself, as a former fan, if he knew that he had the ability to change the result and didn't do it, I'm afraid Li Wan himself would not forgive himself......
This has nothing to do with anything, pure "basketball heart"!
Fortunately, this matter is still early, and Li Wan can avoid himself for the time being.
After the 6 preseason games, the opening game officially arrived, and after the 6th preseason game, the reporter asked Li Wan a question that has been common since the offseason:
"Li, what kind of impact do you think the alliance will have if it re-expands the three-second zone?"
Since Li Wan had ambitions for the new season in the summer, he has not had a suitable opportunity to announce this matter, mainly because he is afraid that his physical fitness is not up to standard.
You know, in the season when Chamberlain averaged 50 plus per game, his average playing time per game was ...... 48.5 minutes!
Well......
Chamberlain owed him an average of 0.5 minutes per game playing time because he only went off the court early for a total of 8 minutes this season because of a technical foul, but he played a total of 7 overtime times in this league, and all of them were full, and then think about the fact that while he played 48 minutes, he also completed the "20,000" record in his career, Michael Jordan only raised Li Wan's physical ceiling to 99 points, Li Wan really has no temper at all, compared to this master, Michael Jordan's physical fitness is indeed not enough.
Li Wan has many advantages over Chamberlain.
One is that he is an outside player, and he also plays a round, which is not the same for the physical exertion.
Chamberlain's 100-point fitness averaged 48 minutes per game throughout the season, and Li Wan didn't necessarily need that kind of fitness.
And no matter what era, the confrontation under the basket will definitely not be weak, even in the "small ball era", because a group of people are there to grab rebounds, the number of confrontation rounds required under the basket will definitely be more.
But for the convenience of outside players, it is real.
Again, that's an advantage!
Speaking of technical aspects, Chamberlain did not have a three-point line in that era, and his own free throw shooting ability was not up to par, and these problems did not exist for Li Wan. So he doesn't have to play every game to score 50 points.
But his physical fitness can't be too low, not 100, at least above 95.
The good news is that after entering September, Li Wan, who concentrated on physical training, has made his physical fitness above 96 points......
That's it!
"Man, have you ever seen Chamberlain play?"
The reporter was very young, so naturally it was impossible to see Chamberlain play.
But he still didn't understand what Li Wan meant.
However, Li Wan did not continue, and he did not continue to ask questions, for him, Li Wan was reluctant to say that it was just right, he could play freely.
At that time, it was a report that was written in a flash:
Have you ever seen Chamberlain play? Will Lee Wan replicate the miracle of Chamberlain in the new season? 》
This report caught the attention of everyone across the league.
Especially after some reporters confirmed that Li Wan had indeed said these words, the entire alliance was boiling.
What does this mean?
What do you mean?
Is this to say that Li Wan wants to play Chamberlain's "miracle"?
In the "small ball era"?
If it was anyone else, these media reporters and fans would definitely scoff at it, but because it was Li Wan who said such a thing, they felt that there was a drama at that time......
There is no way, there are too many "miracles" that Li Wan has completed.
Now they are thinking more about what kind of "miracle" Li Wan wants to accomplish, which is an average of 50 points per game in the season? Or 100 points per game?
It seems like......
Chamberlain did such a "miracle" in the same season, huh?
Li Wan won't also cover all these "miracles" this season, right?
Seriously, most of the media in the league have recognized that Li Wan's achievements on the court surpassed Michael Jordan, after all, it is a "quadruple championship" plus a "triple championship", and there is also a championship......
But there are still some media who think that Li Wan and Michael Jordan are still lacking a lot.
But there are some things that are created by the times, and ordinary people really can't catch up.
In the case of honor catching up, it is necessary to break the others, pure hooliganism.
But now Li Wan's speech has allowed them to find a new way of thinking: if a "Chamberlain" gets the current honor of Li Wan, and the two are combined, who still dares to say what no?
Right!
This is the way!
If Li Wan really played a Chamberlain-style "miracle", they can be sure that Li Wan's name from now on must be before Michael Jordan, there is no doubt about it!
It was also in this discussion that the opening game of the Columbus Explorers became more eye-catching.
As soon as it came up, it was the posture of the "finals".
Ben Simmons cried and fainted from the toilet......
Well, although David Stern has stepped down from the position of president of the league, the tradition of the league's revitalization has really been inherited, look at how much trouble the league can do, the first game of the Columbus Explorers, the opponent is Ben Simmons's Philadelphia 76ers who were devastated by Li Wan last season!
Reporters are also uneasy, and the first question to Ben Simmons before tonight's game starts is ......
"Do you have mid-range shots in the way you influence the game now?"
This was a direct choke on Ben Simmons.
He was actually ready for the new season, but he really didn't expect reporters to come up with this problem.
He hesitated for a long time without answering.
A reporter asked, "Man, is the training photo you tweeted about in the summer really a P-picture?" ”
This summer, Ben Simmons uploaded a photo of himself in training, which was nothing, marketing, giving people a sense of active workout, making people feel that the rookie will definitely be able to do great things in the future!
But the problem still comes, some people find that Ben Simmons's muscles don't seem to be bigger, but bigger with P.
At first, it was just a question, but after it was found out to be true, there was a lot of movement.
It was two dizzying questions, and Ben Simmons felt like he was choking with anger.
No......
Why is it all this kind of problem?
Ben Simmons feels like it's all Lee Wan people out there.
But in fact, the main reason is that there are too many reporters tonight, and many people can't interview Li Wan at all, so they can only make do with "torture" Ben Simmons first.
All reporters asked the same question to Li Wan......
They seem to know whether Li Wan's words really want to reproduce Chamberlain's "miracles".
Li Wan smiled mysteriously: "You'll know right away!" ”
Seriously, Li Wan's answer made these reporters suddenly feel that the process of awarding rings before the game was not so important, and they couldn't wait to see the game begin.
Let's see what kind of performance Li Wan will give in the game......
Sure, for these anxious reporters, but for Columbus fans and Kwame Brown, it's a year-long moment.
Kwame Brown is back to show off his "ring gloves" again.
Only this time he was shocked by another president, Tatum......
However, it's no wonder, after all, this is the 9th championship ring, who suddenly sees so many championship rings, will be confused, right?
Especially although Li Wan also has his 8th championship ring, he is not as fond of it as Kwame Brown, so when Tatum awarded him the ring, he did not have that intuitive feeling.
Kwame Brown brought him a very intuitive feeling.
Also intimidated was Brunson, a first-year rookie, who had a little more eagerness in his eyes than Tatum...... He also hopes to have a successful career as Kwame Brown.
He didn't say these words, otherwise, Kwame Brown would definitely wave his hand directly at him.
No, no, man, you can't be as successful as I am......
Because there can't be a second Li Wan in this alliance!
The second championship flag was raised above the Grand Navigation Arena, and the cheers of the audience came and went, and Kwame Brown was still enjoying the last moments of this "party", and he said to Li Wan: "Lee, I have a dream......
Li Wan: "......"
The players of the Philadelphia 76ers watched the Columbus Explorers receive their rings on the spot.
Anyway, it's not about stepping on their "corpse" to win the championship, there is nothing in their hearts that they can't accept, but they are full of thirst, as a player, who doesn't want to experience such a moment?
Especially the "Great" Embiid, the longing in his eyes at the moment is really ......
It's almost overflowing in the eyes!
Before the start of the new season, the media selected the 10 most anticipated players of the season, and Embiid, who is about to start his third season of career, is on this list, and everyone is optimistic that he can become one of the best centers in the league.
His teammate, Ben Simmons, is also on this list.
He is also one of the most anticipated newcomers in the league.
At the same time, in the predictions of most media, whether the Philadelphia 76ers can get closer in the new season also depends entirely on the performance of these two people.
Seeing these reports, Embiid was very touched, he was eager to succeed, and then let these media brag about him!
The big screen on the scene gave the starting line-ups on both sides before the start of the game:
The Columbus Explorers have not changed, they are still the same five, and the Philadelphia 76ers have not changed much, and they are still the same five......
I don't know, I thought last season wasn't over yet!
It seems that even the players of the Columbus Explorers don't know that the new season has begun.
The first shot that came up belonged to the Philadelphia 76ers, Embiid grabbed the first offensive for the team, and when Ben Simmons dribbled to the frontcourt, his blood pressure surged for the first time.
No......
I've posted videos of me practicing shooting, why are you still so protective of me!
This summer, Ben Simmons posted several videos of him throwing "bricks", no, practicing shooting, in addition to posting photos of his big muscles, which he thought would be a little deterrent to other teams in the new season.
The results now look ......
Anyway, the Columbus Explorers didn't take his videos seriously at all, or last season's defensive strategy!
"Telescope Defense"!
Li Wan even made a gesture of "Vote, I won't guard against you" towards him.
This Nima, the already high blood pressure is even more irrepressible.
Why don't you show off your summer practice?
Ahh
I've practiced a fart!
Ben Simmons knows very well that he is purely posing, and it is okay to deceive others, and if he deceives himself, then his true form will be revealed on the spot.
In the suffocation, he gave the ball to Embiid, who asked for the ball inside.
Well......
Embiid: It's clear who is the boss on this team.
Facing Adams, Embiid's skillful footwork, a sudden turn, successfully completed the offensive frame, and played Philadelphia's first offense of the new season.
It can be seen that he is in very good shape.
It's just that on Columbus's side, the serve is very fast, and Li Wan didn't hesitate much when he held the ball to the front court, and holding the ball was a forced breakthrough.
The "three-second zone" was restored, and the defense of the inside line slowed down a lot.
This is especially true in areas close to the free-throw line.
Ben Simmons just suffered the humiliation of Li Wan on the defensive end, this round was very serious on the defensive end, but Li Wan posted with him, and immediately accelerated to open the distance, Adams's cover came at this time, Li Wan made a move to kill inside, deceived Simmons around the cover, and immediately stepped back to shoot a three-point shot.
The moment the ball went into the frame, Simmons had just finished wrapping around the "pile" and was still a little dizzy.
Li Wan shouted at him: "I'm here!" ”
3-2!
The scene burst into cheers.
Ben Simmons also called a block, and the "Emperor" stepped forward and shook for a moment, immediately sinking to the bottom.
Ben Simmons on the verge of a breakthrough: ......
Really, whether this inside line loves you or not, just look at the way he gives the block.
Embiid has no choice, so many eyes are watching this season, he really has to take off!
It's not just about the stats of the team, but also his personal stats and the way he plays.
It's like drinking at a wine table, and if you want to get in the mood, the person talking has to have a glass first.
Embiid wants to lead the way, and he can't just lift one cup, he must have two or three glasses.
This time, Sabonis Jr. and this Adams successfully "joined".
Embiid spun around for a long time and turned into the bag of these two people, but to say that Embiid does have a "big dream" three points, no, more, a little charm, and passed the ball out with a little hand.
Catch the ball on the outside, and there is a "bang".
Embiid rushed to grab the rebound, and finally watched as Li Wan protected the rebound.
To say that Embiid's signs of softness can be seen from this, looking at the ball that can't be grabbed, he is really not strong.
But compared to Dunbao, Embiid is hard again.
Embiid is not strong in looking at the rebounds that can't be grabbed, Ayton belongs to yes, he feels that the opponent can score the ball, so he goes directly to the baseline to prepare to serve.
During this period, no matter how the opponent grabs the rebound and makes a second offense, he will not participate in anything, and just watch it until his feelings are verified......
One word stands out:
Soft!
The soft one is the same as Gary Payton's thin.
Quickly holding the ball to the frontcourt, Ben Simmons's winding defense still has a hand, and Li Wan once again made a strong move with the ball, but this time Ben Simmons chose to ......
I don't believe you'd do that!
One stepped forward to grab, and then was easily confronted by Li Wan and touched it in one step.
Ben Simmons is known as "the next LeBron", but his confrontation ability is still a little bit behind LeBron in the second year, Li Wan has enough confrontation advantage in the face of him, just one moment, he pushed him away, and Li Wan, who rushed into the inside, faced Embiid's interference, a "super big lever", Li Wan, who felt that he was not stable enough, stuck out his tongue.
The skill triggers, and the ball bounces twice on the basket and rolls into the basket.
Ooh~
Seeing that it was so thrilling, Li Wan immediately congratulated himself on holding his hand.
But if he is careless, this ball will not go to the basket......
5-2!
The cheers at the scene were even more enthusiastic.
The reporters on the sidelines were also even more excited.
Li Wan's offensive momentum tonight is too strong, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that he intends to fire with all his power.
So......
Is it true?
Is Li Wan really going to copy Chamberlain's "miracle"?
In fact, part of the reason why the fans at the scene were so excited was in it, the pre-game report was so fierce, how could they not know about it, and now seeing Li Wan's attack so ferocious at the beginning, they naturally became excited.
Witness the "modern-day Chamberlain"!
Needless to say, this passage alone is enough to illustrate how remarkable this is.
On the court, both offenses were hit, and Li Wan's offensive momentum became more violent, Ben Simmons was still quite confident in his defense, but he missed two free throws in a row, and his whole mentality gradually became impatient.
But soon, he discovered something that made him feel even more devastated, Li Wan had just begun to exert his strength, and he was almost unable to hold on.
The head coach of the Philadelphia 76ers couldn't help but call a timeout at 4 minutes and 35 seconds in the first quarter, because Li Wan is too fierce, and I don't know if it's because he didn't play a game in the summer.
It's no wonder that he has such an idea, but Li Wan scored 12 points in less than 5 minutes, which is clearly running for 30 points in the first quarter......
This Nima!
They're still a bunch of kids!
Reporters gradually discovered this situation, what Chamberlain's "miracle"!
Li Wan is clearly not here, if this section continues like this, there are no 30 points, then there are 25 points?
Ben Simmons has no light in his eyes.
On the defensive end, Li Wan used "telescope" defense to humiliate him, and on the offensive end, Li Wan used eighteen martial arts to destroy his defensive self-confidence.
This guy ......
Do I have any enmity with him?
Ben Simmons thought about it carefully, except for the fact that he once used a trumpet to say "I will be better at Li Wan in the future" in college, he has never had any intersection with Li Wan?
Why does he hate me so much?
Li Wan: Bullying my "Pippen", that is bullying me!
You've bullied me, can I still bully back?
Ben Simmons didn't know how the first game of the new season ended, he remembered that Li Wan was replaced at 6 minutes and 34 seconds in the third quarter, and when he went down, he went down with 56 points, 12 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, and the shooting percentage was an exaggerated 62%, 55% and 100%......
But none of that matters anymore, the only thing Ben Simmons remembers is that his sky lit up after Lee Wan went off.
In the end, relying on the second half of the third quarter and the fourth quarter, Ben Simmons still got 13 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists...... It's finally not so stumbling.
However, the best player on the Philadelphia 76ers' side has to be Embiid.
"Believe in the process" He transformed again, and scored 30 points, 11 rebounds and 2 blocks in this game.
If it weren't for Li Wan's state was too outrageous, he scored 56 points in less than three quarters and made 10 three-pointers, originally his play like this could make the Philadelphia 76ers and the Columbus Explorers stalemate for a long time.
Now......
They lost by 22 points, 110 to 132.
After the game, Li Wan was surrounded by a large number of reporters, and everyone's first question was:
"Li Wan, do you really want to challenge Chamberlain's miracle?"
Average 50 points per game!
This is the average points per game that many scoring masters are ashamed of, even Michael Jordan, who has won 10 "scoring titles" in his entire career, can only be secretly stunned in the face of this record.
With the progress of basketball, everyone also thinks that this record will be difficult to surpass, but what I didn't expect is that in the first game of the 18~19 season, Li Wan used his actual actions to show that he was about to do something about this record......
And from this game, it can also be seen that Li Wan has the ability to impact this average scoring record per game.
Well......
Although it was the first game, these reporters had already seen the possibility, because Li Wan scored 56 points in only 3 quarters!
With the advent of the "small-ball era" and the increase in the number of rounds, the average points per game of the players are indeed increasing.
It can be seen from the average points per game that in the 03~04 season, Michael Reed, who was tenth on the NBA scoring list per game, averaged 21.5 points per game, and in the tenth place on the scoring average list last season, he averaged 23.1 points per game.
This is still the tenth in the league with the lowest average points per game in recent seasons, like the 16~17 season, the league's tenth average is 25.3 points per game, and the original 18~19 season is the league's tenth average of 25.7 points per game.
The original 22~23 season was even more remarkable, with 6 averaging more than 30 points per game, and the tenth in the league was 26.2 points per game!
For example, Michael Reid, who averaged points per game in the 03~04 season, can only rank 28th in this season......
The level of competition in this league is increasing, and so is the number of conversions in offensive and defensive rounds.
And a player like Li Wan is even more so that as long as he is rushing to score, he can't stop it at all.
What gave Ben Simmons a little comfort was the public opinion of the media, they didn't think that Ben Simmons couldn't prevent Li Wan because his own level was too poor, his defensive ability was still okay, and it was possible to chase the "best defensive formation", not that he was too bad, but that Li Wan was too strong!
Even Ben Simmons could only watch as Lewan scored 56 points in the third quarter above him, and the outside defenders of other teams were probably no better than Levan.
The second question from the journalist was:
"Lee, why do you suddenly want to challenge Chamberlain's record!"
Li Wandao: "There is no special reason, I just want to challenge myself, there is no one in this league who is qualified to be my opponent!" ”
It's a surprising statement, but it's also true.
After Li Wan won the 8th championship trophy of his career and his 8th Finals MVP, there is really no one in the 10s who is still qualified to stand in front of him and judge him as an opponent.
Even Stephen Curry was the target of two defeats by Leewan, and a "gentleman's sweep" and a complete sweep.
Not to mention LeBron James, the "pride of the sky", he can't even keep the title of "pride of the sky", where can he be compared with Li Wan.
There is also a very conspicuous sign:
The free agency market has been buzzing this summer, with a lot of big trades, but how many of these deals are for the East?
The only player who can be called a "star" level is only one Marc Gasol, but the difference between him and Lee Wan is not something that can be filled by a few Stephen Curries or ten LeBron James.
And more importantly, no one thinks that the Raptors are led by him.
In addition to him, other stars, including LeBron James and Kevin Durant, have all gone to the West.
Legend has it that LeBron James doesn't want to go to the Bulls to take care of "kids", but everyone knows that even if the Bulls are stronger, he can't go to the Bulls.
This is the current status of Li Wan in the rivers and lakes, with him, it is really like Larry Bird's sentence, others can only compete for second.
In this atmosphere of "how lonely is invincible", challenging his limits seems to be the only thing Li Wan can do to increase his challenge.
However, Li Wandu has "fallen" to this point, and in this way to increase his motivation, some reporters suddenly have some bad ideas.
It's just that they didn't dare to ask.
At least Li Wan is still in high spirits at this moment, they should think too much about themselves!
scored 56 points in the third quarter of the opening game, and when the news spread throughout the league with Li Wan's bold words, no star stood up to refute Li Wan's words.
He was indeed like a mountain, overwhelming everyone.
However, under his stimulus, in the first game of the season of other teams, stars broke out one after another, and played particularly dazzling statistics.
What a pity!
This season, they are destined to be just fireflies, how can they compete with Haoyue!
Well......
It's not the sun!
After scoring 56 points in the third quarter on October 28, in the first game of November, Li Wan "clocked out of work" in three and a half quarters, scoring 53 points in the second consecutive game, plus 13 rebounds and 7 assists, in addition to 4 steals and 1 block;
On November 3, Li Wan clocked out again in the third quarter, scoring 51 points, 10 rebounds, 8 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, and came to 3 games in 50 consecutive games.
On November 5, Li Wan cut the fourth 50 plus;
On November 7, Li Wan cut his fifth consecutive 50 plus;
The league announced the "Best of the Week" in the East and West in the first week, and Li Wan won the "Eastern World of the Week" in the first week, and the Raptors won all four games in the first week like them, Paul George averaged 28.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists per game, and his performance was exceptional, but compared with Li Wan's data, he was still too bad.
"It's too fierce, it's really too fierce!"
"OMG, Li Wan, this is really going to ruin this alliance!"
"How do I feel that Li Wan is doing this to prove that Tatum's approach is stupid?"
……
As Li Wan continued to score 50 points, more and more people began to believe that Li Wan could really achieve an average of 50 plus per game.
At the same time, a lot of speculation has also emerged, some people think that Li Wan is proving to Tatum that if he lets go of the attack, it can only be my stage alone, and others don't want to show him the situation of "a hundred flowers competing for beauty".
To be honest, Tatum was really scared, but although the consequences of opening the "three-second zone" were different from what he expected, it was a good thing...... Again, this has created a huge gimmick, and one thing is for sure, the league is still full of gimmicks this season.
Crooked hitting is not unacceptable for Tatum.
It wasn't until November 24 that Li Wanfang scored less than 50 points in a single game for the first time in the new season, and his consecutive 50 plus games also came to 12 games, which not only broke the NBA all-time record of 50 consecutive single plus games held by him, but also plunged the entire league into greater madness again.
Although Chamberlain also averaged 50 points per game in a single season, he was not like Li Wan, who scored 50 points per game, and he alternated 50 points with 40 points.
Li Wan kept scoring 50 points, and before scoring 45 points on November 24, Li Wan averaged a terrifying 54.5 points per game!
Such a feat is much more fierce than the start of the season when Chamberlain started the "miracle"!
(End of chapter)
