1594. The Best Night 4D(1/2)
A life-saving goal!
After Durant made a key three-pointer to tie the score, Beverly also made a key three-pointer, widening the gap to 3 points again, leading 131 to 128!
With 27 seconds left in the game, the Thunder called them for the last timeout!
This time, the mentality of the Thunder team really collapsed!
Durant and Ibaka blocked Sun Ce's score, forcing Sun Ce to stop the ball and force Sun Ce to make a quick decision, and also cut off the route between Sun Ce and Paul George, who was free from the weak side, to receive the ball.
That is, the Thunder's three-man in the frontcourt completed a three-on-three defense this time. Who knew that there was a problem with the back line and actually gave the opponent a chance to open three-pointer, who made 3 of 6 three-pointers tonight!
With 4 of 7 shots, Beverly scored only three-pointers tonight. With this three-pointer just now, Beverly saved the Grizzlies on the brink of danger, and at the same time, his personal score was double-digit!
The other Thunder players were very weak in this ball, and the energy they were holding on was broken!
Who would have thought that this would happen?
What did Westbrook do when he ran to the three-second zone? He jumped to the elderly disco in the paint area? Or did he like to stand in the C position?
There are 27 seconds left. I just tied the score and was still so good at defending it, but I missed someone on the outside!
Worried, unwilling, humiliating, sad... I suppressed the negative emotions for so long, and at this moment, it finally broke out, completely suppressing the Thunder players' desire to turn the tables.
Westbrook, with a lucky mentality, wanted to get the 10th rebound of this game and a super triple-double of 30+10+25, but he didn't expect that Sun Ce would pass the ball to a second-year defensive point guard at this time, and this guy actually withstood the pressure and shot in!
At this moment, even Westbrook's own mentality collapsed!
...
63 points, 37 rebounds, 12 assists, 13 blocks, 4 steals... Leading 131 to 128!
Sun Ce's data and the team's big score all made the Grizzlies ecstatic!
Durant's fatal three-pointer was at the beginning because the Grizzlies' mentality almost collapsed. When the opponent played such a good defense, the Grizzlies, who had no timeout, were even more desperate.
But in the end, Beverly made a three-pointer!
"Don't be too happy too early, Durant just made a three-pointer! Focus on it, we'll play a beautiful defense next!"
Coach Hollins emphasized that he should not be careless and then began to replace the players to set up defense.
With 3 points ahead and only 27 seconds left, the defensive goal is clear. Sun Ce, Beverly, Klay Thompson, Paul George, and Larry Sanders' lineup are on the court.
Come on the field with the determination to defend the opponent.
After playing, Sun Ce's lineup was the same as they expected.
Westbrook, Reggie Jackson, Lamb, Durant and Adams have the lineup.
Four players who can shoot three-pointers, Adams hit the board... Westbrook can also shoot three-pointers. Although his three-point shooting percentage is similar to that of Wade, he can at least shoot.
It's very routine and simple, but theoretically the best arrangement.
At this time, the offense cannot be considered what to do after not scoring. If a player gets the ball, he must shoot when the time comes, and only goals can be scored.
The timeout ended and the game continued. The Thunder had enough 24 seconds of offensive time. They did not choose the frontcourt ball, but served in the backcourt to avoid being intercepted by the Grizzlies, a lineup that was pressing and substituting defense and extremely strong defense.
Westbrook advanced to the frontcourt and encountered Beverly's defense.
Westbrook was not in a hurry to attack. When there were 10 seconds left in the 24-second offensive time, he asked Adams to go out for pick-and-roll, and the others of the Thunder also started running, without the ball pick-and-roll.
Sun Ce follows Durant, Beverly, Paul George, and Klay Thompson closely, and he is actually at the end of his strength. So Durant, the biggest threat point of the Thunder, will naturally be defended by him.
Just as Sun Ce followed Durant to the 45-degree angle on the right side of the three-point line, which theoretically cooperated with the pick-and-roll player who was used to the right hand, when he saw Westbrook's pick-and-roll, he suddenly thought of a question - why did Westbrook run to the pick-and-roll?
Breakthrough score? Obviously impossible.
Breakthrough and pass the ball? Where to go? Players outside the three-point line cannot withdraw the ball and shoot. It must be Beverly and Larry Sanders replaced the pick-and-roll passes and cuts between Westbrook and Adams. If you can defend, you can defend it. If you can't defend it, you won't lose money. The opponent can only make a tactical foul or try to steal another attack. The Grizzlies have three outside lines that can hold the ball... Wait, Westbrook made 3 of 5 three-pointers tonight, which is more accurate than Durant's 4 of 8!
In the midst of lightning, Sun Ce's brain ran rapidly, and in an instant he determined that Westbrook's movement was wrong. Seeing Westbrook move to the right with the Adams pick-and-roll top arc, Sun Ce had no time to think about the consequences and rushed towards Westbrook directly.
On the other side of Westbrook, he aimed at the basket after pick-and-roll, pulled out, and made a three-pointer like a zombie jumping...
"Bang"
Just as the ball left Westbrook's hand, Sun Ce was slapped by the flying ball!
After Adams rushed in after pick-and-roll, he went to grab the rebound. Durant saw Sun Ce accelerate with an astonishing explosion and jumped up, shouting "Russel Pasmee" and only came into Westbrook's ear when Westbrook was blocked!
The ball was slapped by Sun Ce and just slapped into Beverly's hand!
Westbrook's expression was astonished before he landed in the air. When he came to the pick-and-roll, Sun Ce was about three meters away from him. Unless Sun Ce was ready to accelerate his sprint while he was pick-and-roll, there would be no chance at all. You should know that Larry Sanders, who was fighting against the pick-and-roll, didn't react!
After landing, Westbrook immediately went to grab the ball from Beverly's hand. Beverly threw the ball to Sun Ce in time. Sun Ce received the ball, and Durant came up and hugged Sun Ce, and made a tactical foul.
The referee whistle sounded, and because the Thunder had fouled more than 4 times in this quarter, Sun Ce received two free throws.
Durant just instinctively committed a foul for this foul and was already desperate.
Westbrook's brain draw last round, and Durant can no longer control it now. However, the Thunder wanted to "smart" and used the opponent's most unexpected Westbrook to shoot a key three-pointer, but Sun Ce predicted it!
During the timeout, Thunder coach Brooks arranged this tactic. Durant didn't think there was any problem. In addition to being leaping dunked by Sun Ce tonight, Westbrook performed very well tonight, and was hit by Sun Ce for 4 times, and was hit by the key defensive brain... and he performed very well at other times. He also had 9 of 17 shots after being hit by 4 times, and 25 assists and 3 steals. The key was that the three-pointer was really accurate tonight, and 3 shots were made in 5 shots. Durant felt that it was fine at that time.
But now, Durant feels that the whole team has problems, so why don’t he arrange three-point tactics for him?
On the side of Sun Ce, he slapped his teammates to celebrate the victory in advance and then walked to the free throw line. The first free throw is... it's iron!
There are 8 seconds left in the game. Although the Thunder team has not stopped, if Sun Ce has both free throws, they will not have a chance!
At this moment, the Thunder players were shocked! They were ready to grab the board!
However, Sun Ce made the second penalty!
Now, the Thunder players were completely desperate.
But I still have to play. After Adams sent the ball to Westbrook, Westbrook passed Lamb for a long pass and then went straight to the frontcourt. Lamb received the ball and rushed to the three-point line and made a direct shot, missed!
The ball popped up, Westbrook grabbed the offensive rebound, and there was no time left. The final whistle rang, 132 to 128, the Grizzlies narrowly defeated the Thunder by 4 points, improving their record to 36 wins and 16 losses, ending the first half of the season!
Sun Ce looked at Westbrook and scored a super triple-double with 31 points, 25 assists, 10 rebounds and 3 steals... The Grizzlies didn't defend the Thunder's fast attack just now. They could still make a foul if they defended. They led by 4 minutes and 8 seconds. Lamb had 4 seconds left when he received the ball, so he didn't need to defend at all. If Reggie Miller's 8 seconds and 8 minutes were caused, it would be uncomfortable. It would be better not to defend.
But Sun Ce really didn't expect Westbrook to rush forward to get a rebound... But think about it, if the situation was the same, he would definitely lose, and he was still one rebound... He, Mr. Sun, would probably find a way to get a rebound.
As the final whistle sounded, the system prompted by Sun Ce!
“In the name of the father (*):
Goal 1: The host needs to return to the top of the scoring list after the next game with the Thunder. (After this game, the host's average score increased to 33.3 points, and Kevin Durant's average score increased to 33.1 points, which has been completed.)
Goal 2: The host needs to help the team win the next game against the Thunder. (Completed)
Goal 3: After completing the first two goals, make the decision you want to make before Valentine's Day. (To be completed)
...
Ask the host to make the decision he wants to make. After making the decision, he will get a special card: if you give birth to a child, you should be like Sun Zhongmou."
Sun Ce was originally in a very excited state. Although he actually did not reach any record tonight, he had to say it was a record, but in fact he had reached many milestones.
The second place in the 60+ times ranking, after 1976, modern basketball has the most offensive rebounds, modern basketball has the highest single-game rebounds, four-double... These are just milestones, four-double... they are also milestones, because he was the first in the four-double.
However, this did not prevent him from being excited. He could not match his performance tonight's performance in a single game of 70+, 30+, etc.!
But when he saw the system prompt, Sun Ce didn't know why, and he was a little scared... He couldn't say why, he wanted to do that, but he just felt uneasy.
When the final whistle sounded, the fans who could not wait to win the victory were excited and shouted Sun Ce's nickname frantically, some with English nicknames, some with Chinese nicknames, lords, little bullies, triple-double kings, big central defenders, Thanos... everything.
The group of stars on the sidelines looked at the big screen above the stadium. The big screen did not show the results of the game, but instead showed Sun Ce's data and the broken records!
64 points, 60+ for the 7th time in his career, tied Kobe Bryant.
37 rebounds in a single game, breaking Charles Oakley's 35 rebounds in a single game, the highest rebound since 1976.
19 offensive rebounds in a single game, breaking the NBA regular season history record of single-game offensive rebounds held by Rodman since detailed statistics.
14 blocks, since detailed statistics, the third highest number of single blocks in NBA history, second only to Elmer Smith's 17 blocks in a single game and O'Neal's 15 blocks in a single game.
25 of 37 shots, 14 of 24 free throws, no three-pointers entered the court, and all three-pointers made a hit, but they just relied on mid-range shots, dunks, free throws, and super data of 64 points, 37 rebounds, 12 assists, 14 blocks, and 4 steals!
With such performance, others don’t even have the idea of trying to sprint!
The first person in the league!
Even if many people are unwilling to give up, they have to admit that Sun Ce is the number one in the league!
Especially this year, the Grizzlies suffered repeated injuries and major deals that shake the Grizzlies' tactics. However, Sun Ce still carried the team forward before his young teammates had fully grown up, and played one crazy game after another, helping the Grizzlies to still rank among the top strong teams in such an unfavorable situation!
The fans who watched TV through the t.n.t sports station were amused by Barkleyson's unloving expression... He is the third in the modern basketball regular season single-game rebounding rankings, and the second in the regular season single-game offensive rebounding record since detailed statistics.
Now, he has dropped one place on both lists overnight!
At the end of the game, the actors and singers who rushed into the court first ran up and took their cell phones to take a photo with Sun Ce.
Due to the height difference, everyone really has their own photo angle.
Active and retired players don’t know what to say. As a player, seeing such performance in his lifetime... This is almost impossible to replicate. Chamberlain is amazing enough, right? He was invincible in that era, but his strongest performance only happened once, and no situations that were close at other times have happened.
This is a miracle!
Just like Chamberlain's 100 points, Kobe's 81 points, Jordan's 63 points in the playoffs, Baylor's 61 points in the finals... These miracles are just like them, they can't do it again!
However, seeing such performance with your own eyes, as players, their inner shock was stronger than that of the fans!
And the fans were reluctant to leave!
To be continued...
