In global basketball forums, Lu Yao's Player of the Week caused an uproar!
"I was able to win the Player of the Week award just after my debut. I thought I was wrong!"
"It's incredible! Lu's progress has surpassed that of almost any rookie!"
"His statistics and on-field effects are indeed worthy of this honor!"
"It's so scary. You just believed that this kind of data and this kind of efficiency would be achieved by a rookie who only played four games!"
"My old swan, Lu Yao is so strong!"
Seeing Lu Yao's exploding data column, the fans were stunned.
Even great players such as Jordan, James, and O'Neal who just debuted cannot match Lu Yao's performance in these four games.
And judging from Lu Yao's expression during the game, it seems as if he is as relaxed as he is.
Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but take a breath of air.
Prior to this, the Best of the Week had always been occupied by James and Curry.
These two players have also become strong contenders for MVP this season.
But the appearance of Lu Yao broke this order.
In just four games, he overtook Curry, who averaged 32 points per game, to become the player of the week, leading the Thunder to 4 wins and 0 losses, not to mention defeating James' Cavaliers, Paul's Clippers, and Rose's Cavaliers.
In these three games, Lu Yao couldn't help but beat the opponent's star player, and even got off work after three quarters in two games.
And in China’s Hupu forum.
"Lu Yao is going to shake things up! He has performed like this just after his debut. Do you want to ruin the NBA?"
"That one upstairs, your wording is a bit inaccurate. Lu Yao has already turned upside down. I checked the performance of the historical superstar in the first four games. Guess what?"
The poster paused for a moment, then typed a string of words.
"No one can match Lu Yao's performance this week, with super high efficiency, filled data columns, and luxurious record. Not even Black Jesus' rookie season can do it."
With such a description, people have a more profound impact on Lu Yao's power.
Being able to lead the Thunder, which had previously shown signs of decline, back to the top, Lu Yao must have contributed a lot.
"Lu Yao is really crazy. If he continues to grow like this, China Basketball will be on top of the world in the future."
"Yes, with Lu Yao's current performance, if he can continue, he will not only be the best rookie, but even the MVP for the first time!"
At this moment, an old fan [Du Xiaoshuai] with high recognition in the Hupu forum spoke up.
"What the brother upstairs said is really not a joke. After all, Lu Yao's current data is not as good as Curry and James. If the Thunder can maintain its record, Lu Yao will be a strong MVP contender."
"It's only November now, and there are still five months left before the playoffs. There is plenty of time left. Lu Yao's current personal ability no longer needs to be questioned. If he really wins the MVP by then, then he will most likely be the league's MVP. One of the most individualistic MVPs ever."
"Similar to Jordan in 1988, O'Neal in 2000, Duncan in 2003, Lu Yao's current performance is comparable to them."
After hearing Du Xiaoshuai's story, all Hupu netizens felt even more admiration for Lu Yao.
Back to Lu Yao, as soon as he got home, he received a call from Rich Paul and learned that he had won the Player of the Week.
Lu Yao's expression didn't fluctuate much. After all, he had already regarded this Player of the Week as a winner.
After a brief discussion, Lu Yao learned that Rich Paul's promise that his mansion and luxury car were already in place.
At the same time, Rich Paul also informed Lu Yao of each team's wishes for Lu Yao.
As Lu Yao thought, every team is trying their best to pursue Lu Yao, hoping to sign a contract with Lu Yao.
The value of each contract offered is basically the level of the No. 1 pick that year.
This year's No. 1 pick, Wiggins, is still struggling with the Timberwolves. Lu Yao, the undrafted pick, actually looks more like this year's No. 1 pick.
Although Brother Zui will prove himself with the Warriors in the future, now, his popularity as the number one pick has been severely suppressed by Lu Yao.
Lu Yao said a few words to Rich Paul, then hung up the phone and fell asleep.
…
The next morning, a tweet appeared in the public eye.
The person who tweeted it was none other than this year’s rookie, Giannis Antetokounmpo.
He is also known as Antetokounmpo.
The current Antetokounmpo is still in his rookie season, a little green, and does not have the terrifying physical fitness of the future Greek monster.
This tweet expresses Antetokounmpo’s confusion about Lu Yaozhou’s best.
"What? Is it so necessary to praise Lu? It's not just that the opponent's talent is too mediocre."
"If it were me, I could also get this kind of data and win the best of the week award."
"Of course, people who have never played in the NBA can't understand it."
As soon as Antetokounmpo's tweet came out, it immediately attracted a burst of abuse from Thunder and Chinese fans.
"No way, right? No one will say the grapes are sour because they can't eat them. Lu Ke is much better than you."
"Look at your performance? Lu has the same physical talent as you. Now Lu has proven himself, but you are still struggling now."
"If you have this time to slander Lu, it's better to improve yourself!"
At the same time, a group of fans who were also dissatisfied with Lu Yao took sides with Antetokounmpo, and a fierce scolding war broke out on the Internet.
"Is there something wrong with what Giannis said? Except for the Cavaliers, no player's talent is mediocre. If the Cavaliers were not in poor condition, the Thunder would not be able to beat the Cavaliers."
"Curry of the Warriors averaged 32+5+5 per game this week and shot 60% from three-point range, but he didn't even win the Best of the Week. What's more, the Warriors are still No. 1 in the Western Conference. Why should Lu Yao be awarded the Best of the Week? ."
"Lu is just a more accurate shooter from the outside. When a stronger center faces him, he will be beaten."
…
Naturally, Lu Yao's fans were not to be outdone and responded strongly.
"Forget one mediocre game, mediocre games are nothing. Could it be that all the Thunder's opponents are mediocre? The Cavaliers had won five consecutive games before facing the Thunder. Where did you get it? They are not in good condition."
"It's really shameless. Why don't you say that Lu Yao averages 30+8+7 per game, has a field goal percentage of over 70, and leads the Thunder's comeback with 20+ points in a single quarter. Why can't he win the Player of the Week?"
"What kind of shooter is more accurate from outside? Didn't you see the scene when Lu Yao dunked Drummond head-on? That was a solid dunk. Wasn't James strong enough? Or was Lu Yao chopped off on the head? It’s 35 minutes, isn’t it?”
