Celtics attack.
"Be decisive! Don't hesitate when the opportunity arises!"
Marshal Stevens yelled from the sidelines.
Cj pulled up to the top of the arc and asked for the ball outside the three-point line. Button was close to him. The former directly bypassed Button and ran to the left wing outside the three-point line before receiving the ball.
I saw him stop quickly after catching the ball, and jump up along the sprint. At this moment, it was as if Los Angeles No. 24 was possessed, and he shot the ball with a slight drift.
Wang Zelin bypassed Horford from the free throw line and rushed out to cover, but he was still a step too slow.
"Wha—!"
The water splashed and he hit a three-pointer.
It was 93:96, and the Celtics were only three points behind.
"Both sides have reached a desperate moment, and this shot was very decisive!" Miller couldn't help but praise, but then he noticed something was wrong off the court and hurriedly shouted, "Hey, Wang Zelin came down quickly and crossed the center line. Hurry up and serve!”
It turned out that Wang Zelin didn't put it down, and he didn't stop after the ball. He accelerated directly, rushed past Cj, and launched a fast break.
However, Ingram also followed him outside the three-point line and quickly got down to the low post, so Jokic on the left wing rushed to the basket and prepared to serve.
But in this way, the opportunity was lost. By the time Jokic reached the baseline, Wang Zelin and Ingram had already stopped at the basket. He wanted to pass the ball out, but Horford and Thomas were almost back on defense, so they could only Wear it to Lillard and switch to positional warfare.
"It's a pity that we couldn't hit the fast break." Van Gundy sighed, and then continued what he said just now, "The Celtics have to be so decisive in their shots, because the opponent cannot defend them, and this kind of three-point shot Once cast, it is very scary.
The Trail Blazers must pay attention, don't let Wang Zelin get a quadruple-double but lose the game. In that case, the media will definitely say after the game that Wang Zelin is a data brusher and will not even give up victory in order to brush up the numbers. "
"Yes, Wang Zelin is the most popular candidate for MVP. He is in the limelight these days, so you should pay attention." Miller said.
At this time, the Trail Blazers started to attack, and Wang Zelin still received the ball in the low post. He still chose to play this ball himself.
He needs to attract double-teams from the Celtics, compress the Celtics' defense, and create open opportunities on the outside. Only in this way can the efficiency of the outside be improved.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
After being beaten continuously, Wang Zelin relied on his strong strength to carry Horford into the paint step by step.
After 5 seconds of back-up violation, Amir Johnson suddenly rushed to the basket. At this moment, Wang Zelin suddenly turned around and slipped to the bottom.
This time Horford reacted early. He kept the coach's instructions in mind and retreated to the basket in advance.
In this way, Wang Zelin's bottom line was directly blocked by Horford and the two of them, one step away from the paint area, half a step away from the reasonable collision area, and about one meter away from the basket.
At this distance, Wang Zelin can use a sky hook to easily solve the problem and expand his personal score to 51 points tonight.
But after being blocked, Wang Zelin resisted the urge to hook and passed the ball to Jokic on the edge of the paint area.
Jokic caught the ball and shot a jumper. As soon as Wang Zelin saw the arc of the ball, he quickly grabbed it towards the basket.
However, the basket was already occupied by Horford and Amir Johnson, and he was kept out.
But sometimes luck comes and no one can stop it.
The first time the basketball landed, it hit the edge of the hoop and bounced high again.
Amir Johnson took off first, but everything came up empty.
The next moment, when the basketball bounced out, Wang Zelin and Horford took off at the same time.
Wang Zelin's jumping speed is currently among the top. After inheriting Barkley's physical fitness, he is now ranked first in the league. After all, there are always a few jumping men whose physical fitness is inhuman, but he is also one of the few. indivual.
At least Horford is far behind him in terms of bullet speed.
Taking off at the same time this time, he easily overwhelmed Horford, used his long arms to pick up the ball from behind, ran to his side, and then took off a second time to grab the rebound.
Just when everyone thought Wang Zelin would finish the game by himself, he turned around and slammed the ball toward the three-point line.
The basketball flew straight to the left wing at a 45-degree angle. Batum received the ball with just the right amount of force, and he didn't even need to adjust. He just took it out.
"Wha—!"
99:93, the score difference returned to 6 points.
At the same time, Wang Zelin also grabbed the 31st rebound of the game.
"Beautiful! Batum, the key player for the Trail Blazers, responded with a three-pointer!" Van Gundy Jr. roared excitedly.
Wang Zelin stepped forward to take over from Batum and said with a smile, "I knew you could do it, buddy."
"Haha, you passed it well." Batum couldn't help laughing.
Then the two of them walked away.
Celtics attack.
At the free throw line, Wang Zelin picked up his spirits, faced to the right and stared at Cj outside the three-point line on the right wing. Secondly, he did not forget Ingram at the top of the arc.
At this time, Thomas came to the frontcourt with the ball and made tactical gestures.
Amir Johnson suddenly started, but instead of catching the ball, he turned around and ran down the three-point line.
At the same time, Ingram, who was on the same side as him, suddenly started to shake off Batum and rushed towards the bottom corner.
At this time Thomas passed the ball to Ingram.
Ingram received the ball, Amir Johnson provided a screen, and Ingram had an open opportunity.
Wang Zelin stared closely at the running position on the opposite side. When Ingram was just in the bottom corner, he was well prepared. He reacted immediately when he saw the turning movement and turned around in an instant to pounce out.
After completing his reincarnation so quickly, England also just received a pass from Thomas Jr.
When he looked up, he found the figure of Trail Blazers No. 36 appearing in front of him. Ingram was stunned for a moment, and his mind went blank.
However, Wang Zelin in front of him didn't care so much. He seized on the opponent's fleeting mistake and opened the ghost sword, attacking everything...
"Snapped!"
I got my fourth steal of the game.
"Oooh!"
The whole audience exclaimed.
"Return to defense quickly!"
Stevens yelled hastily, but Wang Zelin's reaction speed was still one step faster. After stealing the ball, he turned his head and launched a fast break counterattack.
At the same time, Lillard, Barton, and Batum rushed madly toward the Celtics half court at the first opportunity.
Thomas and Cj reacted very quickly, but a 4-on-2 situation was already formed in the frontcourt, and everyone had already guessed the outcome.
After passing the center line and the three-point line, Wang Zelin still had no intention of stopping. Until he was one step beyond the free throw line, he kicked off the ground with one foot and took off violently.
"boom!"
A one-handed windmill chop shows the beauty of violence.
At 101:93, the Trail Blazers led by 8 points.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Zelin's scoring data tonight was displayed on the big screen. When the fans saw that he had scored 51 points, the audience was excited.
In the next round, Thomas made a mistake when he broke through and passed the ball to Batum. Batum and Wang Zelin started a fast break at the same time.
"boom!"
The cooperation between Ba and Wang resulted in an alley-oop dunk.
The 53rd point!
When Wang Zelin scored 5 consecutive points and opened the point difference to 11 points, Stevens reacted and called a timeout.
At the beginning of the third quarter, the Celtics still saw our hope, but as they fought, they were all stunned by Wang Zelin alone.
It’s so demoralizing!
In the third quarter, Cj helped the Celtics to hope for a comeback and boost their morale, but was defeated by Wang Zelin alone.
Watching Wang Zelin score 53 points, 31 rebounds, 6 assists, 8 blocks and 4 steals, less than three minutes into the final quarter, Wang Zelin was stunned to expand his original 4-point lead to double digits.
At this moment, Stevens also felt helpless.
Looking at Trail Blazers No. 36, who was chatting happily with his teammates, and then looking at Trail Blazers coach Terry Stotts, he expressed his admiration in real name.
Fuck, it’s amazing to have superstars, right?
Coach Terry said: "Sauri, the difference is great!"
The state of things seems very mysterious and no one can be sure. Just like his amazing performance in the third quarter, it is unpredictable. No one expected the Trail Blazers' good form to come so late tonight. Their shooters made so many hits in the first three quarters that they barely missed the basket.
However, the Trail Blazers' perimeter group, which had been stuck for three quarters, suddenly found its touch after the start of the last quarter. Batum and Wang Zelin's three-pointers successively marked that the Blazers' perimeter group broke the curse they had been subjected to before. .
In the next nearly 10 minutes, the Trail Blazers scored four three-pointers from the outside, two from Lillard, one from Jokic, and one from Button.
In this regard, the Blazers' starting five all scored three points in the final quarter.
Wang Zelin's face was even more happy, his mouth almost split open at the back, and the Dragon King was possessed on the spot.
He did not score in the past four minutes, but he sent 3 assists, 2 blocks, 1 steal, and grabbed 3 rebounds.
Scores, rebounds, and blocks were all in double figures, and now the only thing missing was the last assist.
When the official timeout came, Stevens quickly asked the players to return to the bench and relax their tense nerves.
The plot development tonight is so magical!
Especially for the Celtics, they feel like they have been teased by the goddess of fate.
If they had not seen hope, they most likely would not be as entangled as they are now, but at the end of the third quarter, they saw hope of defending the championship.
Then in the final quarter, the Blazers' sudden wave completely broke all their arrangements and shattered all their illusions.
Obviously, there is still a big gap between them and the defending champion.
In the second half of the fourth quarter, the Trail Blazers, who had regained their touch, attacked wave after wave, completely defeating the Celtics lineup that was already having some games.
This time, not only were the outside lines undefendable, but the penalty area was also completely compromised.
In the end, Wang Zelin, who made 20 of 25 shots in 44 minutes, including 3 of 5 three-pointers, and 10 of 10 free throws, scored 53 points, 35 rebounds, 11 assists, 10 blocks and 5 steals, as well as the outstanding offensive performance of other players. In this focus battle, the Celtics defeated the Celtics with a score of 136:115 and achieved their 53rd victory of the season.
Looking at this horrifying data...those Wang Hei who were looking forward to Wang Zelin's average score falling by 40 points per game can only close their eyes and choose to accept this helpless reality.
Moreover, what Wang Zelin got was a 50+30 super-large quadruple-double and 5×5 data. Such data can no longer be described in words. This is the ceiling data in basketball, and no one can surpass it.
Unless... someone can come out of nowhere to get the legendary five pairs.
But, is this possible?
How could such a realm of gods be accessible to mortals?
No, looking at the Trail Blazers No. 36 on the court, an incredible thought suddenly flashed through some people’s minds:
Maybe, one day in the future, this guy will get the legendary five pairs.
No way, since Wang Zelin scored 84 points, 18 rebounds, 10 assists, 7 blocks and 3 steals in the game against the Warriors on December 1, 2016, people have seen endless possibilities in him.
Perhaps, the sky is the limit for this young man!
Yes, people suddenly remembered at this time that Wang Zelin, who already holds three championship rings + three MVP trophies + three MVP trophies + several honors, seems to be just 25 years old.
At 25 years old, how many superstars are still fighting for a championship ring or an MVP trophy this year.
There are only a handful of superstars in history who can win a Grand Slam of personal honors before the age of 25.
Winning a personal Grand Slam honor at around the age of 25 means that he has accumulated a series of top honors such as double first team + MVP + FMVP + championship in his career honor book. The last player who could meet such stringent standards was named - —Tim Duncan!
Duncan received the honors of first-team defense, championship, and FMVP very early, but he lacked a regular season MVP.
It wasn't until the 2001-02 season that Duncan finally won the first MVP trophy of his career, but at that time, Shi Fo was already 26 years old.
The standard for just one career Grand Slam is already so stringent, and Wang Zelin has already achieved it three times in a row.
This is what shocks countless fans the most and makes all players of the same generation despair the most...Wang Zelin is too young!
As strong as Michael Jordan, he entered the league in 1984 and won the MVP and Double First Team at the same time in 1988. His personal reputation reached the first peak of his career, and his league status and gentleman gradually became as good as those of the black and white duo.
But even so, he had to wait a few more years until he won his first career championship and FMVP in the 1990-91 season, completing his first career Grand Slam of honors.
That year, Jordan was 28 years old.
When the Chicago Bulls achieved their first three-peat dynasty in franchise history, Jordan was already 31 years old.
The 31-year-old Jordan has only achieved the achievements of the 25-year-old Wang Zelin. It feels crazy to think about it.
For fans who truly love basketball in this era, this is the best era because they can witness the rise of a great legend.
But for the players of the same generation, this was a bad era because the ruler of this era was so young that he was so young that... no one knew where his limit was?
In their view, this is the most powerless era and the most desperate era!
Everyone will become a stepping stone for him to build his godhood.
