In the third quarter, the Thunder once again hit a climax, directly extending the score to 30 points. The Raptors were unable to chase points if they wanted to, and could only watch helplessly as the Thunder continued to score one goal after another. .
In the end, the Raptors were overwhelmed and replaced the entire bench lineup, which also declared that the Raptors had given up victory in this game.
The Thunder also retained the last dignity of the Raptors and replaced the substitute lineup. Fortunately, this time, the Raptors were not as ignorant as the opponents the Thunder faced yesterday. They seized the opportunity and were not beaten by the Thunder's substitutes. Explode.
This game also became boring after entering garbage time. The spectators present had begun to leave the field, completely afraid to witness this bloody massacre.
Finally, as the referee's whistle sounded, this game that almost made the Raptors players a shadow came to an end at this moment.
The Thunder brought the victory back to Oklahoma in a foreign country. After winning this game, they have won 19 consecutive games and are approaching their goal of 20 consecutive wins.
After the Warriors lost the next game and ended their winning streak, it also announced that the winning gap between the Thunder and the Warriors had reached 6 games.
Such a gap is simply out of reach for the teams behind. As long as there are no surprises, the Thunder's dominance will continue until the All-Stars.
And what Lu Yao said back then is still being fulfilled to this day.
"We'll keep winning until the All-Stars!"
Now, there are still more than half a month until the All-Stars are held, and the current All-Star votes, Lu Yao still ranks first in the league, and is 300,000 votes away from second-placed James, and is separated from the second-placed James in the Western Conference by 300,000 votes. Curry II opened the horror drama with 500,000 votes.
This is enough to prove how terrifying Lu Yao's popularity is. He is just a rookie who has just entered the league for a year, but his ability can surpass the two superstars James and Curry. He has reached the number one position in the league, and even ranked first in the league. The first in the off-speed style.
The reason why he is able to reach this position is due to his strength and the powerful Chinese fans behind him.
In the original 2008 All-Star Game, Yi Jianlian was unable to be selected for the All-Star Game due to temporary changes in the league's rules. Chinese fans could only watch with regret as Yi Jianlian was unable to participate in the All-Star Game.
That year, Yi Jianlian's performance was certainly not up to standard, so Chinese fans could only swallow their regrets alive.
But this time, Lu Yao's performance was at the MVP level. He surpassed James Curry and Durant on the same team. He has topped the MVP list for two consecutive periods and averaged a terrifying 37 points per game. Points, for a player like this, it would be unreasonable not to be selected as an All-Star.
Because there is a reason this time, and because Chinese fans have been backlogged for a long time, when the All-Star voting opened, Lu Yao's number one has been maintained from the beginning until it is about to end.
Of the same family, Lu Yao also has many fans in the United States. Almost many American fans like Lu Yao's style of play and his humble character. His Instagram account already has hundreds of thousands of fans.
All of this has contributed to the fact that even James, who has dominated the All-Star vote for many years in a row, can now only succumb to Lu Yao, watching Lu Yao win the first place in the All-Star vote.
Soon, Raptors players appeared one by one in media interviews.
Lori, who had already changed into casual clothes, faced the reporter's interview, spread his hands helplessly and said.
"We have tried our best. The opponent is so powerful that we can't imagine it. The Thunder is definitely the strongest opponent we have encountered this season. There is no professional,"
one reporter asked sharply.
"Kyle, what do you think about your poor performance of 5-for-15 tonight?"
After hearing this, Lori suddenly fell into deep thought, a trace of self-blame flashed in his eyes, and then he slowly raised his head and answered the reporter's question.
"I don't have any opinion. We will be reversed tonight, mostly because of my fault. For this reason, I am willing to bear all the responsibilities for this game. If I deploy my teammates, I am afraid we will have lost in the first quarter." Lost the game."
"I also want to say that Lu Yao is too strong. Even though we scored 19:0, for Lu Yao, this score does not exist at all. He led the Thunder to advance all the way and constantly chase the score."
"You know, when I switched to him, the sense of oppression he brought to me was unprecedented. I even felt that even if I faced Michael Jordan, I would never feel that way."
"When I was guarding him, I could only watch him take action without being able to do anything. In the end, I could only watch the ball fall into the basket. In this process, I was completely like a bystander, being directly led by Lu."
"Lu will definitely be the MVP after this season, and I believe they will win this year's championship trophy. This is not my personal opinion, but because they really deserve it."
In this interview, Lowry praised Lu Yao and the Thunder players. Although the Raptors felt very sorry for the defeat, they also celebrated the Thunder's victory in this game.
Soon, the Thunder players were interviewed. After the interviews with Durant, Westbrook and the others were completed, Lu Yao walked onto the stage and began to be interviewed by reporters.
"Lu, how did it feel when you completed the 19-point comeback in only half a quarter?"
Lu Yao smiled slightly and said without hesitation: "It is a great feeling to be able to accomplish this with my teammates. I am happy to continue to create history and complete records with my teammates on the court."
"This may be my little vanity, but I really want my teammates to be remembered in history with me."
"Ha ha."
After Lu Yao answered this question, another reporter asked Lu Yao a question.
"Lu, you said you would win the All-Star Game back then, but looking at it now, I'm afraid it's going to come true. How do you feel?"
When Lu Yao heard this, he scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I didn't expect that those words that were so confident at that time would be remembered for so long. I'm afraid that I won't be able to win the All-Stars and feel ashamed."
"Despite this, we currently have nineteen consecutive wins. As this reporter said, we are very likely to make this sentence come true."
"Perhaps many people thought we would lose at the beginning of this game and thought this sentence was about to become a joke."
"But I want to tell everyone that we keep our word."
