Although the salaries of 76ers players are generally very low, they are all higher than Zhao Chen.
Now these players generally cannot guard him.
The Thunder could select Zhao Chen with the 58th pick in the draft, and their 11th pick was all squeezed.
Is he really just a second-round pick?
This judgment of dribbling, breaking rhythm, and defensive reading shows that Zhao Chen surpasses other rookies in almost every round!
How terrible!
"The 76ers never expected that without Westbrook and Kevin Durant, they still wouldn't be able to easily defeat the Thunder." Barkley laughed.
"Yes, Zhao Chen seems to have turned the Thunder into his team." Smith said.
"With his current ability, he can get a contract with an annual salary of more than 10 million this summer." Barkley said.
"Speaking of this, I don't think Presti is that perfect. Although he selected Zhao Chen with the 58th overall pick, he only gave him a one-year ultra-short contract. Of course, the worst result is that Zhao Chen chooses not to renew his contract with the Thunder and leaves the Thunder. The Thunder only have him for one year, and then there is nothing left. Compared with other big cities, the attraction of the Thunder It’s too small,” Smith said.
Zhao Chen didn't care about his contract. He was concentrating on winning the game.
Zhao Chen quickly conquered the Thunder, and the Thunder's lineup also quickly started tactics with Zhao Chen as the leader.
The game on the court fell into a tug of war.
The Thunder mainly rely on Zhao Chen to score. When Zhao Chen encounters a double attack and passes the ball out, his teammates are not very efficient in finishing.
Zhao Chen showed his versatile offensive methods this night.
Three point shot!
Step back!
All kinds of low-position sit-downs!
Cut inside!
....
If it weren't for the fact that the Thunder players were not strong enough and Zhao Chen was left alone, he would have won this game long ago.
Although the 76ers are not very efficient, they are just higher than the Thunder.
They were also very lucky. In this quarter, they scored three goals within 24 seconds of attack time, one of which was a three-pointer.
After three quarters, the score was 82-82.
The two teams were playing very anxiously, and no one could pull away.
Zhao Chen's ball control ability was demonstrated in this game. He passed between two or three people many times without making any mistakes!
No one on either side could widen the point difference, and the score remained tense until the last round.
111 to 113.
The Thunder trailed by 2 points with 18 seconds left.
Fortunately, the ball was theirs, and they still had the last chance to win.
Zhao Chen scored 48 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in this game. Zhao Chen has already scored the first triple-double in his NBA career.
McAway only had 7 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists and 6 turnovers, which was overshadowed by Zhao Chen! !
Of course, data is not the most important thing to Zhao Chen, the most important thing is to win!
Thunder timeout.
The whole stadium cheered one after another.
This game was very exciting. The 76ers have not played such an exciting game in a long time.
In the past, they often suffered defeats...
"Zhao, you go up and hold the ball. Adams, you cover Zhao. After the screen, you pass down, and others open up space..." Brooks kept arranging tactics for the final attack.
Brooks gave the ball to Zhao Chen for the last attack. He hoped that Zhao Chen, who was so awesome today, could help the Thunder win the game.
Zhao Chen was also sweating constantly on his forehead. He was also under great pressure in this game.
He got the data, but the team's victory or defeat obviously had little to do with the data.
If you lose, no matter how good the data is, you won't feel good about it.
For the 76ers, Coach Brown doesn't know how to arrange defensive tactics.
There is no doubt that the final possession of the ball will go to Zhao Chen. Who will guard him?
McAway was scored 48 points by Zhao Chen today. He was blown away and had no confidence at all. Others were misplaced.
Coach Brown was a little scared by Zhao Chen's one-on-one ability.
If he is flanked, Zhao Chen's 10 assists will be there again.
It is said that they are leading, but if the 76ers fail to defend well, they will be defeated.
"Pay attention to defending his three-pointers and don't give him a chance. If you defend two points, you can use your body. If you want to foul, don't give him a chance to play two plus one."
"Focus on blocking three-pointers!!"
Coach Brown emphasized repeatedly.
If it is a three-pointer, then the 76ers will be defeated.
Brown doesn't want to be killed!
...........
domestic.
Fans in the forum and live broadcast bar were shocked by Zhao Chen tonight.
Before the game was over, he scored 48 points in a single game. There were not many free throws, just various three-pointers and two-pointers. The visual effect brought by this explosive scoring was shocking.
Step back three-pointers, various low post attacks.
Is this still the beginning of their introduction to 3D players who can only catch and shoot?
Such a guy can't be 3D!
"Make a good bench and look forward to the final victory!"
"If Zhao Chen wins or ties, he will get 50+."
"Zhao Chen is so awesome tonight."
“Really cool!!”
"No Westbrook or Durant can play like this. It's really fierce."
"I worship, today Zhao Chen is just like Zhao Zilong, a powerful stroke."
"Is Zhao Chen trying to seize the class and seize power? When Westbrook and Durant come back, they may lose their positions as the boss and the second, just watching the fun, haha!!"
"Kneeling down to watch the game, I have regained my passion!"
.........
"Charles, do you think Zhao can complete the buzzer-beater?" Kenny Smith said.
"Whether he can complete the buzzer beater or not, he proved that he should be a lottery pick," Barkley said.
"I think you can be a little bolder, this guy's recent performance is not just as simple as the lottery." Kenny Smith said.
"Then what do you think Zhao will be in the draft again?" Barkley said.
"Hey, if I look at it now, I will position him as the No. 1 pick. This guy is really good. He may be another Kobe-type player." Kenny Smith said.
"Don't be kidding, Kobe's three-pointers are not as accurate as his." Barkley said.
Barkley was obviously a little surprised by Kenny Smith's high opinion of Zhao Chen.
"I'm talking about scoring ability and willpower, and this guy's desire to win," Smith said.
"Desire? You can see that?" Buckley asked.
"Look at his eyes. If he doesn't take this game back, he might lose sleep all night. This is something you can't see in the eyes of other players," Smith said.
As Smith said, maybe no one else in the Thunder cares about winning as much as Zhao Chen does now.
.........
Beep! !
The referee blew the whistle to end the timeout, and the game entered the most critical moment.
