Chapter 727 James's Joy and Anticipation!
"75 points in three quarters again?!"
Looking at the frowning No. 9 player of the Seattle Supersonics on TV, Kobe really didn't know how to describe his current mood.
Some people might think he was flattering himself, but he really felt his unique qualities in this game!
Originally, the whole world thought that Yes's touch would be cold in the second half, even if it was not completely cold, it would be slightly colder, but I really didn't expect that Yes's touch would remain in the third quarter, and he even scored more points!
The ability to maintain a constant touch in this game...
Kobe really had an illusion that the frowning guy on TV was wearing the wrong jersey.
"75 points in three quarters, 75 points in three quarters again, and this time..."
Kobe looked at the score of 115 to 116 on TV.
The expression on his face kept changing.
100 points!
Yes once again got the chance to hit 100 points!
This is the second chance for Yes to hit 100 points in his career!
The last time Yes faced the Raptors, he scored 75 points in three quarters and also had a chance to hit 100 points.
But in that game, the Toronto Raptors collapsed early.
So Yes did not play in the fourth quarter and gave up the chance to hit 100 points.
After Yes gave up the chance to hit 100 points, the public opinion and media fans around the world regretted Yes's choice, but there was nothing to criticize about Yes's choice.
So, after Yes gave up the chance to hit 100 points, the world's ridicule, humiliation and malice towards the Raptors became more fierce.
Yes can't die, so can the Raptors not die?
If the Raptors don't die hard, how can they vent their resentment.
Kobe also watched the game between Yes and the Raptors.
In that game, he supported Yes's choice to give up the chance to hit 100 points.
If it was him, he would have made such a choice. He believed in Yes's strength. There would be more than just that one chance in his career. There was no need to let him bear the stain of brushing data for 100 points.
After all, the whole world knows that Yes is the player who cares least about statistics in NBA history. He only takes every statistic he needs from the team.
Even though Yes has the strongest strength and the strongest assist ability in NBA history, he has helped his teammates win the assists and scoring titles, but he himself has never won the assists and scoring titles.
And this time, the score between the Seattle SuperSonics and the Timberwolves is 115 to 116!
Now the Seattle SuperSonics need Yes's score!
"Is it?!"
Kobe's mood is very complicated now. Is he really going to witness the birth of the second 100-point player in the league?
Chamberlain scored 100 points in the NBA in 1962. That year, most NBA fans were not born, and most NBA players were not born now. No, it should be said that without considering Mutombo's real age, all NBA players have not been born!
So Chamberlain's 100 points are all in legend.
Now, is the miracle of 100 points going to reappear? !
Kobe is excited now.
But besides being excited, he also felt a little emotional. His 81 points in a single game will be put in the back row again!
Thinking of this, Kobe's heart was full of fire.
The current Lakers don't need him to score like in the previous seasons.
But seeing Yes's score, he really wanted to find an opportunity to be presumptuous!
Score as early as possible, while he can still use the knife, cut the entire league all over again!
But...
Kobe finally sighed. This is also the most confusing thing for Kobe. Although he can always feel his unique temperament from Yes, Yes's style of play is really completely different from his...
Logically speaking, Yes without Durant should be like him in the past, and he has to shoot more than 20 times in every game, but Yes, in many games, even only shoots 10 times.
This style of play is really completely different from his!
Scored 75 points in three quarters, and the 100-point miracle is about to come again!
After players from many strong NBA teams determined that the Supersonics were not a threat to them this season, they stopped paying attention to the Seattle Supersonics' games.
However, when they learned from various channels about what was happening in the ongoing game between the Supersonics and the Timberwolves, almost immediately, all NBA players turned on the TV.
Not only NBA players and many NBA practitioners were like this.
Many fans who gave up this season because they couldn't bear to see Yes fail and be abused also turned on the TV at this time.
75 points in three quarters!
100-point miracle!
When the third quarter of the game between the Timberwolves and the Supersonics ended, the Internet around the world was full of this topic.
In China, all TV stations that were broadcasting the noon news at this time interrupted this news.
You know, these news programs interrupting such news will make all the viewers watching TV change channels!
"President, the real-time ratings of the Seattle Supersonics and the Timberwolves are skyrocketing!"
When the excited assistant rushed into the office, he saw David Stern staring at the TV in amazement.
Seeing the stunned league president, the assistant was stunned for a moment and then quietly retreated.
100!
This is the number that the No. 1 NBA fan on Twitter, not the No. 15 but the No. 2, typed on his latest Twitter.
This number also represents the voice of all the viewers and fans in the world who are paying attention to the NBA.
Now everyone is looking forward to an incredible NBA miracle to appear again!
For such expectations and attention from the whole world at this time, Yes did not care at all.
Now his brows are still frowning, just like at the end of the first half of the game.
And the reason for frowning is actually the same, that is, thinking about the Timberwolves' game choice in the fourth quarter.
In the third quarter, his score did not continue to be reduced.
Because if he continued to reduce it in the third quarter, he would have no chance of scoring over 100 points in this game.
In the second half, the Timberwolves confirmed their decision to continue to focus on the offensive end. It can be said that the energy on the defensive end continued to retreat, which was also an opportunity for Yes.
At least in the entire third quarter, as long as the Sonics were always behind, he didn't have to worry about the Sonics suddenly changing their defensive choices.
In the game, the Timberwolves had no time to think and change their tactical ideas.
But at the end of the third quarter, before the fourth quarter began, the Timberwolves had the opportunity to think and adjust their game tactics and game choices again.
Will the Timberwolves stop him from getting 100 points or continue to choose to win?
Yes is not sure now, but it must be said that the task of getting 100 points in the game is indeed difficult, very, very difficult!
This attempt made Yes more clear about what conditions are needed to get such a score in the game.
Now Yes is thinking about the Timberwolves' choice.
In front of the Timberwolves' bench, the whole atmosphere is extremely weird!
So far in this game, the Timberwolves are the leading side.
But now, the Timberwolves have no joy of leading, only the heavy feeling of suffocation!
75 points in three quarters!
Now everyone in front of the Timberwolves' bench knows this number!
Now every player in front of the Timberwolves' bench is spinning this number in their minds!
Feeling the number spinning wildly in his mind, Yi Jianlian's face was shocked. He watched the 75-point game between Supersonics and Raptors, Brother Ye, on TV. At that time, he had not yet entered the NBA.
He really never thought that he could become a member of such a legendary game one day!
And he was the one standing opposite Brother Ye!
If he had not learned to move forward bravely and no longer hesitate, he swore that if he were the old him, his legs would probably be shaking now!
In fact, after knowing that Brother Ye scored 75 points in three quarters, Yi Jianlian could clearly feel that many of his teammates around him had turned from confident and excited expressions to nervousness, worry and even fear!
Raptors!
Everyone thought of the Raptors!
The Raptors that were completely ruined by Brother Ye!
The Raptors that were ruined by Brother Yes only scored 75 points in three quarters, and they were about to face the threat of Brother Ye scoring 100 points in a single game!
If they really let Yes score 100 points in a single game in this game, then what will they do after this game? !
You know, before the Christmas battle between the Raptors and the Supersonics, before the 75 points in the three quarters, the Raptors were also a top three, thriving, and promising young team in the East!
And what about the Raptors now?
The current Raptors have completely become a self-anesthetized team.
After Chris Bosh, the boss of the Raptors, escaped from the Raptors, he did not criticize his former teammates for self-anesthetization, self-collapse, and self-escape.
Now Yi Jianlian is very entangled. He knows very well that many of his teammates are even thinking at this time, how good it would be if the fourth quarter had become garbage time!
If this game is played in garbage time, then Brother Ye has no reason to continue to play.
Brother Ye is not the kind of player who is desperate for data.
But the current score is 115 to 116!
This score is the most uncomfortable score for the Timberwolves!
They have a chance to win!
Ibaka is under their control, and they can do whatever they want to Ibaka.
But in the same way, Brother Ye can do whatever he wants to them!
The question now is whether they should continue to focus all their energy on the offensive end?
The two main perimeter defenders of the team, whether Mayo or Gay, do not have the ability to dominate both offense and defense.
Continue to attack Ibaka, and just maintain normal defense against Brother Ye.
In this way, Brother Ye will definitely get 100 points, but they may also win the game, and they can barely accept such a result.
But what if they don't win?
The current score is 115 to 116, which is almost not a point difference. Even if the difference between the two sides is about 10 points, they dare not gamble easily!
There is always a need for a choice.
If we don’t defend with all our strength, but instead attack half and defend Brother Ye half, and want both sides, we may not win the game in the end, and Brother Ye will get 100 points in the end!
The atmosphere on the Timberwolves bench is very unusual.
The players are silent.
Whitman, as the head coach, is even more silent.
He knows very well that his next choice will not only affect the Timberwolves in this game!
If the game is lost and Yes gets 100 points, it will be the heaviest blow to the Timberwolves, who are now thriving and have just defeated the strongest Lakers team in the West!
You know, Whitman has always believed that after getting Mayo, the Timberwolves will definitely take off in the next two seasons. His basketball philosophy and the Timberwolves’ championship and Minnesota’s dream will all be realized!
Now, for the victory of this game, are the Timberwolves going to gamble on these beautiful futures?
The Timberwolves and the Supersonics are the opponents competing for the top eight this season. This game is very important, and one game can be considered two games!
But...
This is still a regular season game!
Even if the Timberwolves lose this regular season game, it does not mean that the Timberwolves will not be able to enter the playoffs this season!
Thinking of this, Randy Whitman's face was slowly turning black, but he had already made a decision in the face of this difficult choice.
After hearing the head coach's decision and feeling the collective relief of his teammates after the head coach made this decision, OJ Mayo's hands were already clenched into fists.
The sweat soaking through the center of his fists betrayed his current mood.
In this game, he was ready to defeat Yes and the Sonics for revenge.
But in the end, he was shamefully frightened by Yes!
"Can Yes really complete the miracle of 100 points in this game?!"
Wade was looking forward to it. Although he was an opponent, he really wanted to see a miracle of 100 points!
Everyone who loves basketball and the NBA will look forward to such a moment!
"Yes can't complete 100 points in this game, and Yes can't complete 100 points in his entire career!"
James' voice was firm, decisive, and disdainful.
It's all because of this guy's reputation, and it's all because of the halo that this guy has!
Unless they must defeat Yes, no team will be willing to bet on Yes's 100 points!
The Timberwolves have no reason to beat Yes in this game.
The Timberwolves are not his Heat, and Gay is not him. The Timberwolves and Gay are not qualified to beat Yes in this game.
In the entire league, only he and the Heat are qualified to beat Yes and the Supersonics in every game!
Especially in the Christmas game two months later, he has lost to Yes four times in a row, and there is no reason for him to lose!
But can Yes have a chance to score 100 points against him and his Heat?
The disdain on James' face became even more disdainful.
Wade was surprised by James' decisiveness.
However, at the end of the fourth quarter, the Seattle Supersonics finally defeated the Timberwolves 145-138 at home. On TV, when Yes's final score stopped at 88 points, Wade's eyes turned from surprise to admiration when he looked at James.
LeBron is really amazing!
Yes!
Facing Wade's admiring eyes, James' eyes were flickering, flickering with boring and pleasant expectations...
