As the break ended, the second quarter began.
Seeing Lu Yao wearing a jersey and walking onto the field, the Jazz substitutes were a little confused.
Nine of the starting players from both sides were gone, and only Lu Yao was left on the court. What did he want to do?
This can't help but make the Jazz's substitute players feel a little scared.
For at least half of the next quarter, they will face this monster.
It’s scary to think about it!
The ball was handed over to Jazz, who served from the baseline and was handed over to Hood to control the court.
Hood dribbled the ball toward the backcourt and reached the top of the arc. The Jazz and Thunder began to tangle.
The Jazz continued to conduct, but the Thunder followed closely, leaving no loopholes for the Jazz.
As the offensive time passed, the Jazz understood that it was too late.
Millsap received the pass from outside the three-point line, but seeing that there was not much time left, he could not force the shot.
Did you ever think that at this moment, a black shadow suddenly came out and stopped directly in front of Millsap!
Lu Yao rushed to Millsap, jumped up high, and hit Millsap head-on!
The ball was shot directly out of bounds. Looking at Lu Yao in front of him, Millsap felt like the world was spinning!
Lu Yao's suppressive power is really terrifying!
This block immediately aroused cheers from the entire Energy Center.
The ball was once again given to the Jazz, and Kanter, who was replaced, handed the baseline serve to Millsap in the low post.
After Millsap received the ball, the Thunder's defensive players quickly approached, and Millsap could only force a shot.
After all, the passing path has been blocked, and now all Millsap can do is take action.
But the hasty shot did not attract the favor of the goddess of fate, and the ball hit the basket.
Lu Yao grabbed the rebound and led his teammates towards the frontcourt.
A 2.16-meter power forward was organizing the offense of his teammates, which shocked the audience.
But considering that he is Lu Yao, this is not surprising.
After all, Lu Yao himself is a strange talent, and it is not surprising that some things that are difficult for ordinary people to understand happen to him.
Lu Yao came to the top of the arc and passed the defending Millsap in one step, creating a mismatch.
Suddenly, Lu Yao paused in front of the free throw line and took a shot.
Millsap could only watch as Lu Yao threw the ball in his hand into the basket.
Less than a minute into the second quarter, Lu Yao scored his first point in the second quarter.
But for him, that wasn't enough.
Kanter, who was inside, couldn't withstand the offensive from Lu Yao.
Kanter and Lu Yao were engaged in a fierce confrontation under the basket. After the Thunder players took action, the two took off at the same time.
In the air, Lu Yao almost had Kanter hanging on his body. Even so, Lu Yao withstood the pressure and grabbed the rebound.
Lu Yao grabbed his second rebound in the second quarter.
Lu Yao quickly pushed the ball towards the frontcourt, and the Jazz defenders couldn't even keep up with Lu Yao.
It's scary for a power forward to have such skillful ball-handling skills.
The Jazz players behind him tried their best to catch up, but they could only watch Lu Yao easily put the ball into the basket.
At 1 minute and 22 seconds into the second quarter, Lu Yao scored his fourth point of the quarter!
Lu Yao counted his data and licked his lips.
At this moment, Lu Yao was in full swing. No matter how many people the Jazz sent to stop him, they could not stop his defense.
In the first half of the second quarter, Lu Yao was on full fire, scoring 13 points and 6 rebounds. The Jazz were severely ravaged!
At this moment, the Thunder are already 15 points ahead.
The Jazz immediately called a timeout and replaced the starting players.
On the other hand, the Thunder did not make substitutions. Lu Yao was still on the court with four substitutes.
In the commentary box, Kenny Smith had some doubts and said: "Are the Thunder going to let Lu play half the quarter? He leads the team by himself against the Jazz's five starters. It seems that he believes in Lu Yao's personal ability."
Barkley sat aside and observed the situation on the court: "Now Lu Yao's touch is hot. Even if the Jazz replace five starters, they may not be able to stop Lu Yao's attack."
Looking back to the court, the ball was handed over to the Thunder. Lu Yao received the ball and took it to the wing to face Hayward's good players.
Hayward is considered a good player in perimeter defense, but in front of Lu Yao, this is not enough.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Yao made a drastic change of direction and swayed half of his body.
Even so, Hayward reacted quickly and followed quickly.
Did you ever think that Lu Yao made another change of direction, his signature double change of direction, which directly opened a huge distance from Hayward!
Hayward was startled, and when he tried to defend again, it was already too late. Lu Yao had already retreated and once again opened the distance from Hayward, and then made a mid-range shot.
The ball fell hollowly into the basket, and the point difference between the Thunder and Jazz reached 17 points!
At the same time, Lu Yao's personal data also reached 33 points and 14 rebounds! Scored 30+10 in halftime!
Looking at this, Lu Yao wants to sprint towards 40+10 data, or even 40+20 data!
To be honest, Lu Yao was in a very hot state this time.
But the Jazz's side was naturally not bad. Hayward felt warmer and hit two consecutive three-pointers, helping the Jazz reduce the score to within ten points.
Just when the Jazz wanted to work hard and continue to reduce the score, Lu Yao stepped forward in time.
Lu Yao cut inside, received a pass from Robertson from the outside, faced Gobert's defense inside, and immediately accelerated to take off!
In the air, Lu Yao flew directly over Gobert's ball and directly smashed the ball into the basket with a one-handed tomahawk!
This exploded button directly set the entire energy center on fire!
After this dunk, Lu Yao went completely crazy!
On the outside, Lu Yao resisted Hayward's defense and kept hitting three-pointers and mid-range shots! The unanswerable shot left Hayward helpless!
On the inside, Lu Yao defeated Gobert. In front of Lu Yao, Gobert was like a child being bullied severely by Lu Yao.
Lu Yao scored 6 rebounds in just half a quarter! Halftime rebounds came to 20!
Lu Yao stepped to the free throw line. At this moment, he had already scored 39 points and 17 rebounds. With this shot, he will become the first player in history to have 40+15 points in a half! It is estimated that no one will be able to break his record in the next few decades!
Lu Yao is about to make history.
This time, Lu Yao will not be soft-hearted.
Lu Yao took a deep breath, patted the ball a few times, took a free throw, and the ball hit the basket steadily.
Lu Yao turned around, raised his hands, and faced the audience at the All Energy Center!
"MVP! MVP! MVP!"
The audience was already cheering for MVP!
Lu Yaoli is only one step away from 40+20!
These three rebounds are no longer difficult for Lu Yao.
After a lot of trouble in the third quarter, Lu Yao finally achieved the 40+20 task.
At the same time, the voice of the system sounded again in my mind.
[Congratulations to the host for completing the mission! 】
