Nine Hundred and Eighty-One. King of Fifty+ in the Playoffs!
50+ triple-double!
That’s fine, Sun Ce got a 50+ triple-double in the playoffs.
The key is that Sun Ce got 50+ in two consecutive games, and the second game was a 50+ triple-double!
Nowitzki heard the final whistle and saw a group of people from the Grizzlies surrounding Sun Ce and starting to revel. Hearing the crazy cheers that lasted for more than an hour, his voice was hoarse but he was still screaming...
19 of 33 shots, 13 of 17 free throws, Nowitzki’s mentality was about to collapse. Obviously, he had tied 1-1 in two consecutive away games, had already snatched a home advantage, and was about to return to Dallas to show his strength... But Nowitzki felt fear.
Seeing the opponent play two consecutive games and get 50+ in two consecutive games, it would feel too crazy, especially as a scoring master, Nowitzki knew the difficulty of getting 50+ in the playoffs. He had played for so many years and only got 50+ in the playoffs once.
Kobe, Carter, Ray Allen and others also scored 50+ in one playoff. Before this season, James played 6 playoffs and didn't score 50+ once. It was only last night that he scored 50+ in his first playoff in his career.
Sun Ce has scored 50+ in the fourth playoff, and he is the third player in NBA history to score 50+ in a single game twice in the same round of the series. No one else has done it except Jordan and Iverson.
Before Sun Ce, only Jordan had scored 50+ in two consecutive games when he played against the Cavaliers in the 1987-1988 season playoffs!
As for the 4 playoff single-game 50+, only Jordan's 8 playoff single-game 50+ is more than Sun Ce...
The most important thing is that, except for Sun Ce, the only two players in NBA history who scored 50+ twice in a single round of the series both won the series! And they both won the series under evenly matched conditions!
Jordan's match was in the first round against the Cavaliers, and they won the series by winning the fifth game; Iverson's match was in the playoffs against the Raptors, during which Carter also scored 50+ in a single game, but he lost to Iverson who scored 50+ twice, and the 76ers won the series by winning the seventh game.
The current situation is almost exactly the same as those two rounds of series. The strength of the two teams is not much different. Only by starting from tactical changes and key ball guarantees, the Mavericks were able to win the first game when Sun Ce scored 57 points, purely relying on tactical changes to catch the Grizzlies off guard.
But in the second game, the Mavericks found that they could not suppress the Grizzlies after halftime, so they could only take risky moves, but they could not withstand Sun Ce's cheating in the second half. Seeing that the risky moves turned into a surprise move, Sun Ce started to soar in the second half of the third quarter,
and scored 25 points and 7 assists in the last 19 minutes, suppressing the bombardment led by Nowitzki and Yao Ming.
Although it was 1-1 and the home advantage was obtained, Nowitzki was now more worried than happy, and he could not even be happy!
…
Third-year Sun Ce surpassed Iverson and tied Chamberlain for second place in the playoffs 50+ ranking!
When Sun Ce got his third 50+ in his career and tied Iverson the day before yesterday, people were already crazy. Only two days later, Sun Ce tied Chamberlain again.
Sun Ce's characteristics of being more fierce in the playoffs than in the regular season were once again demonstrated.
The first round of the playoffs for the regular season champion and the defending champion had high attention and many highlights. After Sun Ce played the first two games of the playoffs, although the Grizzlies lost their home advantage, the voices for Sun Ce to get VP were getting louder and louder!
Originally, Sun Ce was one of the three favorites for VP. He played so well after the start of the playoffs, which would definitely increase the impression points of fans and the media. In a few days, after the first four games of the first round, the VP and best defensive player voting will be held. Sun Ce played so well at the end of the regular season and the beginning of the playoffs, basically locking in the regular season VP!
In Los Angeles, Kobe, who had just finished two home games in Los Angeles and was about to play two more away games in Los Angeles, laughed after watching the second live broadcast of the Grizzlies and Mavericks series.
Without meeting Sun Ce, Kobe really felt that Sun Ce was amazing. He was a perfect system player, perhaps the best system player in NBA history, and could occasionally have explosive performances. He suddenly felt that it was a wonderful thing for him to enter the NBA so early and win five championships.
He had long since let go of whether he could get the VP or not. In fact, he didn't even want to compete for the scoring title, but only competed when he saw that his competitor was James. Now it is highly likely that he can't compete with Sun Ce, and Kobe also let go of it.
However, this also made Kobe very excited. If the Grizzlies can go against the trend and beat the Mavericks, Kobe really hopes to play against the Grizzlies again in the Western Conference Finals, which makes him even more excited!
The second round of the Spurs, the third round of the Grizzlies... Kobe felt excited when he thought of this, and he was also more eager to play against Duncan again.
James, who has already arrived in Milwaukee, is about to cry again...
He worked hard to get 50+, which offset the crazy performance of Sun Ce in the first playoff game.
As a result, Sun Ce scored 50+ in two consecutive games and got the second playoff 50+ triple-double in history, and he was also the first playoff 50+ triple-double.
After watching the live broadcast of the game between the Grizzlies and the Mavericks, James felt that his career since the formation of the Celtics Big Three was a tragedy, and it has been a tragedy since the 07-08 season until now...
...
Sun Ce returned home after the post-match interview. Zu Ge returned home with Lily Collins after the game. Zu Ge had fallen asleep long ago. When Sun Ce returned upstairs, he saw Lily Collins in gauze pajamas...
Two hours later, it was early morning. Hugging Lily Collins who was exhausted and fell asleep, Sun Ce entered the sage time and opened the system screen. There was a system prompt that he had not read before because he was too busy.
"Because the host has tied Wilt Chamberlain's second place in the number of 50+ in a single game in the playoffs, second only to Michael Jordan, the first in history, the epic achievement event "King of 50+ in the Playoffs" has been triggered."
"King of 50+ in the Playoffs (Achievement) When the host surpasses Michael Jordan in the number of 50+ triple-doubles in the playoffs, he can get a random star experience card for Michael Jordan's single game 50+ in the playoffs."
It's not a reward prompt. Sun Ce also took a rough look before, so he was not in a hurry to look carefully.
Now that he has carefully looked at the newly triggered event, Sun Ce is not very excited, not as excited as getting 50+ in two consecutive games.
To get at least 5 more 50+... Sun Ce didn't know when he could complete it, but the reward was still very tempting.
He knew that after these two games, the Mavericks would definitely start to really target him, instead of focusing on Randolph as before.
This was a good thing for the Grizzlies, because he was the second highest assists player on the team.
……
……
"After you rest for two nights in Dallas, you will play the third game of the series against the Mavericks. Can you score 50+ in the next game?"
"I don't care about that. If we can win both games, I can score 0 points in both games. If I need to score high points to win, that's good too. The important thing is winning."
"Tomorrow night, the Heat and the Bucks will play the third game of the series. Do you think James can score 50+ again?"
"As far as I know, LeBron is not the kind of person who plays for data. For him, winning is the first priority. I think they can sweep the Bucks."
"Do you think you can get VP again this year?"
"Why not..."
"..."
"..."
……
On the Grizzlies' chartered flight from Memphis to Dallas, Sun Ce was interviewed by the team's reporters.
Due to Sun Ce's performance in the first two games, TNT filmed a special person to chase and defend the Grizzlies throughout the series until the end of their first round with the Mavericks.
In addition to Sun Ce, other people are also interviewees. Of course, the time for individual or group interviews of each player must be arranged with the team's press officer in advance.
On Sun Ce's side, the time arranged by the Grizzlies' press officer Kyle is only before the game, on the way to the transportation, after the game and other times. Sun Ce does not need to be interviewed. This is what the press officer Kyle communicated with TNT according to Sun Ce's previous habit of accepting interviews.
Finally, the interview was done. Lily Collins and Joey, who were watching on the side, came to Sun Ce. Joey said, "Brother, you are so bad. How can you say that James still has the nerve to score so many points in the game against the Bucks?"
"What do you mean I am bad? Am I that kind of person? I just tell the truth. In my mind, James is not a brush for brushing data." Sun Ce decisively denied it.
Seeing that Joey was unbelieving, and Lily Collins sat back in his seat and started whispering, Sun Ce smiled and leaned back to rest.
Just like Joey said, he just wanted to stop James from brushing points.
Bogut of the Bucks was out early due to the tight schedule of the regular season and the Bucks' lack of rest plan. No one can defend James in the interior.
It may be impossible for James to get 50+ again. The opponent is not the Mavericks, but the Bucks who will definitely be eliminated or even swept in the first round. In the case of a certain loss, it is possible to defend against unlimited double-teaming of James. As long as James wants to score points, it is not even possible, but he will definitely do so.
Because Sun Ce felt it in the first round of the playoffs last year. After a burst against the Nuggets, the Nuggets double-teamed him madly in the next two games. He made assists whenever he passed the ball. He easily got a triple-double in the next two games, and then played a triple-double performance in the series.
In fact, in the playoffs, getting good data is often more likely to happen in evenly matched games like the Grizzlies and Mavericks, at least when the two teams play very intensely, such as the double overtime between the Bulls and Celtics, Jordan scored 63 points; for example, in the game between the 76ers and the Raptors, Iverson scored 50+ twice and Carter scored 50+ once. In terms of the series alone, there were 3 50+ famous scenes in history, which is the only one in history.
James might be beaten to bleed against the Bucks to score 50 points, but it is estimated that it will not be difficult to get 40+. It is true that James is strong. Playing against the Bucks, a team that should not have entered the playoffs, and the opponent's best defensive inside player was also reimbursed, he insisted on scoring 40 points and the opponent could not stop him.
If the Heat swept the Bucks, James would average 40+ per game...
He, Mr. Sun, is really not sure if he can average 40+ per game after the first four games against the Mavericks.
Moreover, Sun Ce is sure that in the next two games, after two days of rest and tactical adjustments, the Mavericks will probably not give him such a good singles opportunity. In the first game, the Mavericks defended almost the entire game alone; in the second game, although there was a double attack , but the Grizzlies relied on the sudden change in the opponent's play style to create many opportunities for him to catch and shoot and counterattack. Otherwise, even if he had a good shooting feel and played hard in the second game, he still cheated. , estimated to be around 40 points.
We want to win the series, and vp Sun Ce also wants to win. He would be a fool not to fight if he has the chance.
Moreover, isn't this praising James?
Sun Ce feels that he is such a good person, so friendly to everyone and always praising others...
…
…
After Sun Ce and his teammates checked into the hotel in Dallas, they began intensive preparations in the afternoon and did not want to delay for a moment.
During the team meeting, Sun Ce, his teammates and the coaching staff had a common goal. They must win at least one of the two away games to regain the home advantage. It would be too difficult to return to the home court with a 1-3 deficit.
Since the opponent has a good lineup, strong tactics, and many tactical changes, Sun Ce, his teammates, and the coaching staff devoted themselves to preparing for the game. They analyzed the Mavericks' performance in the past two games, predicted the possible tactical changes of the Mavericks, and then carried out Tactical planning and training…
While the Grizzlies are preparing for the game, other teams' series continue to play.
If the regular season record is good, in addition to the home court advantage, there are also some other preferential treatment. For example, in the series between the top two teams in the division, when the second and third games alternate home and away, they will have two days of rest.
For the third- and fourth-place teams, the two-day break is scheduled between the third and fourth games.
The difference is obvious. After the top two teams play two home games, they will have more time to prepare for the third game on the road and can better adapt to the environment.
As for the reversal of treatment for the 5th to 8th place players, I don’t know what they think. This is the first-round schedule advantage of the playoffs that the top two teams in the division worked hard to get during the regular season.
On May 4, the Knicks, who are fourth and fifth in the Eastern Conference, and the Spurs and Jazz, who are third in the Western Conference, started the third game of the series after a day of rest and alternating home and away games.
After Sun Ce prepared with his teammates for an afternoon, he returned to the hotel and watched the Knicks and Pacers game with Lily Collins, who was asleep, and Zu Ge, who looked contemptuous. As for the Spurs and Jazz... ... There is really nothing to tell from the crushing game. It is better to watch the video of the regular season Spurs' anxious game.
Then, Sun Ce saw the best performance of Bynum's career in the playoffs, with 27 points, 18 rebounds and 10 blocks... Bynum violently beat Hibbert, helping the Knicks to defend the home court 92-85, and the score was 2-1. !
"Bynum is a bit tough! I remember his highest number of blocks in a single game in the playoffs was 7 blocks in the 2010 Finals. This time he actually blocked a triple-double! If the Knicks advance to the second round and meet the Heat, …”
