Chapter 389 He also came to give Li Wan strength!
Chapter 389 He also came to give Li Wan strength!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be really hard for Li Wan to believe that it would be Kevin Durant and Green playing shoulder-to-shoulder.
12 month 25 day.
In the NBA's "Christmas Game", this time the protagonists are the opponents of the Columbus Explorers and the Warriors in the finals of last season.
Li Wan is convinced once again that in the journey of life, the order of appearance is really important.
After being teammates with LeBron James, Green now has a "very much love" with Kevin Durant.
When I was interviewed before the game, it was "same out and in together". Now I am warming up on the sidelines, and I will pass you one while you are still there, and you will throw one to me. That scene is not to mention how warm it is.
No wonder he has such an attitude.
Long before the start of the new season, Green felt after the training game that this year he should regain his previous glory, with the help of Kevin Durant...
It turned out that his hunch was completely correct.
He has returned to the "top of the arc" to deal cards. So far, he has averaged 11.3 points, 7.4 rebounds and 7.2 assists per game. This is Green at his absolute peak.
In the new season, he shouted more than once: "I feel that everything is back, and I have found the old me!"
This is the fourth year he has signed a big contract. Next year, he will have the last season left in this contract. At this time, it is really important to find his own data and team status.
In fact, it's not just him who benefited immensely after Kevin Durant came, but the rest of the Warriors, Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry, are all beneficiaries.
Because the opponent now has another pitcher on the outside who wants to pay attention.
Of course, this aspect complements each other, and it is impossible for opponents to completely empty the "Splash Brothers" just because of Kevin Durant.
This is actually a very fatal defensive problem.
For most head coaches in the league, how to guard against these three people is definitely a challenge.
In the original time and space, this should actually be an unsolvable problem.
Otherwise, the Warriors would not have achieved 2 championships and 1 Asian championship during the three years with Kevin Durant.
Many media are even more willing to believe that if the Warriors hadn't suffered injuries themselves, the Warriors could have won three consecutive championships.
that dominance...
And the original Warriors actually proved with facts that they never needed a big ball-handling core. From the "North Carolina Blackhawks" at the beginning to Kevin Durant and Wiggins later, they were all all-around The striker can do anything, and is not too weak in any aspect.
Having Kevin Durant is the top match for this lineup!
During the "two consecutive championships" period, the Warriors had troubles with James Harden and the Rockets and reached the "tie-break" in the playoffs. There was no such thing as "Thanos Zhan" in front of him. temper.
This is the "Cosmic Brave" who originally ruled the alliance.
But in this time and space, because of the "butterfly effect", Kevin Durant, who joined the Warriors two years later, still made the Warriors present a "dragon crossing the river" posture in the West.
This can be seen from their overall state.
At the end of November, the Warriors, Trail Blazers and Hornets presented a "three heroes", but on December 11, the Warriors still defeated the Hornets 12 to 8, making themselves the only remaining opponent in the West. , became the Trail Blazers.
From December to now, they still only lost 12 games.
It is currently the best team in the Western Conference.
After the Trail Blazers defeated the Columbus Explorers at the beginning of the month, they encountered certain ups and downs. They have lost 4 games so far, which is the same record as the Hornets. third place in the West.
The order of the West gradually became clear.
Of course, for the Warriors, the test of whether they really have the state of the championship has never been the record.
They are the team with the best record in the league in the past three years. They have won 70 games in the regular season for three consecutive years, but the Warriors still have no championship banner at home.
To test whether they are really different, we have to watch tonight's "Christmas game" with the Columbus Explorers!
Speaking of which, the Columbus Explorers have lost 6 games so far and are only ranked second in the Eastern Conference. The Raptors have a better record than them.
but……
In terms of spinach winning odds, Columbus still ranks first.
Odds are minimal!
In this case, the dealers dare not open the market, the main reason is that Li Wan is too aggressive!
In November, he averaged nearly 11 points per game. In the first game in December, he scored 56 points. After that, there were sparks and lightning all the way, 12 points in a single game, and he performed inhuman behavior.
So far, the new season's schedule has come to 25 games, and Li Wan has won 50 games in as many as 22 games!
One of them was not won, because Tyronn Lue chose to rest him in rotation.
It is worth mentioning that Tatum issued a fine of 5 yuan.
Because it was a "National Live Broadcast", and Li Wan, as a "box office guarantee", actually made him absent.
What should I do!
In other words, so far, Li Wan has only 2 games without 50 points, and the others are 50 plus.
And what does that mean?
Let's put it this way, while Li Wan scored 22 50 points in a single game, there have only been about 5 50 points in a single game in the entire league so far, which is equivalent to the number of times Li Wan scored 50 points in a single game. , 4 times more than the entire league.
More importantly, Li Wan's average playing time is only 36.4 minutes per game, which is considered a very normal playing time...Compared to Chamberlain's average of 48 minutes per game and scoring 50 points, Li Wan's average game time is less than 37 minutes. He averaged 55.4 points per game, which seemed even more terrifying!
Barkley said this: "In the past, we usually used strong scoring ability to describe a certain player, but now, I announce that I will use Li Wan to describe a certain guy with strong scoring ability..."
But the more he said he felt it was wrong, in this league, after Li Wan had put up such stats, who else could put the label "Li Wan" in front of him?
Isn't this purely blackmailing yourself?
And then Barkley figured it out...
No one can be the next "Li Wan", but Li Wan can be used as a unit of measurement. For example, Li Wan currently has 8 championship rings, minus the number of LeBron James' rings, Li Wan still has 8 rings championship ring.
This shows that LeBron James is a "0"!
Another example is that James Harden is now averaging 37.6 points per game, which is about 67% of Li Wan's scoring per game!
Then it can be said that James Harden is "3/2 Lee Wan!"
Hearing his explanation, Kenny Smith could only say one thing: "It's you!"
Another new height for Li Wan!
Even the 0.01% of the media who originally wanted to question Li Wan, who couldn't average 50 points per game, and played a "miracle" comparable to Chamberlain, shut up.Li Wan proved it with practical actions, averaging 50 points per game?
If he averages 48 minutes per game, don't average 50 points per game, even if he averages 60 points per game, it can be done in minutes!
Li Wan once again refreshed the limit of the "God of Basketball"!
Just like this guy who is already extremely powerful, but still makes people feel that he has room for him, you say...
Do you dare to put spinach on the handicap?
And this "Christmas War", according to many commentators, whether the Warriors can win or not depends mainly on whether they can restrain Li Wan.
In fact, there is another way, and that is to beat the Columbus Explorers in the matter of soaring points.
Before the Trail Blazers won Columbus, they relied on the collective efforts of four core players. Even if Li Wan scored 60 points, he could only watch the team fail step by step and experience a rare "frustrating night". .
But one undeniable fact is that...
In that game, Columbus lacked a "team's second scorer" who averaged 20 points per game.
But in this game, Carmelo Anthony is going to play.
With a Carmelo Anthony and a Li Wan, Steve Kerr really can't believe that any team can limit them simply by soaring points.
Li Wan: So now you think you can restrict me by relying on defense?
Needless to say, Steve Kerr really thought so.
However, he also has a theoretical basis, not by taking it for granted.
His basis is Kevin Durant.
The excellent physical condition allows him to interfere to the greatest extent when facing Li Wan. At the same time, there is such a line of defense in front of him. Iguodala, Klay Thompson and Green's supplementary defense effect is also the same. predictable.
Therefore, Steve Kerr believes that the Warriors' "Death Five" system can well target Li Wan's personal shots.
But Steve Kerr forgot one thing...
In other words, all experts have forgotten such a thing!
Li Wan does not necessarily have to score, he can pass the ball.
He is the player who has won the most "assist kings" in the league in the past 10 years.
Ok……
At the same time, he is also the player with the most "scoring champions".
Oops, casually talking about group data, it is already the only No.1 in NBA history.
In the past in the NBA, no star has won the "leading score" and "leading assists" times in 10 years, and can achieve the ultimate.
Not to mention, he is still the NBA's "stealer king" in the past 10 years!
This dominance is really...
It’s just that!
It's just that the average of 55 points per game this season made everyone focus on Li Wan's scoring.
Even these experts were thinking about how to limit Li Wan's scoring.
And in the first quarter of this game, Li Wan reminded everyone by passing the ball continuously that this guy connecting teams is also a good show.
Steve Kerr's defense missed.
In the first quarter, Li Wan was different from the past. He only took 5 shots and scored 3 of them, but only scored 8 points in a single quarter. This statistic is already considered very good for other players, but for Li Wan, especially "Modern Chamberlain" who scored more than ten or twenty points in the first round this season. , it can be said that the performance is sluggish...
But in the first quarter, Li Wan sent out 6 assists.
Steve Kerr also felt the incomparable Cao Dan.
The guys in Columbus really made him feel that they were deliberately targeting the Warriors.
When playing against others, their condition is generally not very good, but once they meet the Warriors, these "corner and corner" players can play stably.
Especially the two "second children" Carmelo Anthony and Wiggins, they are in excellent condition!
In the first quarter of this game, Li Wan had 4 assists, all of which were for the two of them.
It can be said that Li Wanchuan is good, but after all, the state of these two people is really hot.
The Warriors paid a heavy price for double-teaming Li Wan.
In the second quarter, Steve Kerr was a little unsure.
To double-team or not to double-team, that is the question!
Let Li Wan pass the ball to "death", or let Li Wan shoot them "death", which of these two "death" methods is more noble.
Li Wan showed a wealth of experience. He saw the Warriors' hesitation on the defensive end. They hesitated. Li Wan was not polite, and he helped them make a choice at that time:
You must double-team me!
Watching Li Wan strengthen his personal attack, Steve Kerr no longer hesitated, and immediately continued to resolutely double-team.
Li Wan played against their defense for a few rounds. After feeling that they were becoming more and more determined, he started to pass the ball again. Thanks to the fact that everyone was fed up in the first quarter, so The Columbus Explorers suddenly had a "scoring wave", and almost anyone who got the ball could complete the attack. The Warriors didn't react for a while, and they were opened up by a double-digit point difference.
Steve Kerr had to call a timeout.
After that, Kevin Durant showed the biggest change he brought to the team after joining the Warriors. He played singles with the ball to help the Warriors stabilize the situation. In the next few rounds, Li Wan played against him. Failed to widen the point difference, the Warriors who stabilized the situation began to chase points by relying on the "three-point rain" from outside the three-point line.
When the "Splash Brothers" stood next to Kevin Durant, no one dared to say that they could guard them for an entire game, including Columbus.
At the end of the first half, the Warriors chased the point difference to only 5 points.
Barkley glanced at the Columbus Explorers' stats:
Li Wan scored 16 points, 9 assists and 7 rebounds, and almost completed a "triple double" in the first half; Carmelo Anthony scored 14 points, Wiggins scored 11 points, and others also scored 8 points and 6 points. The team presents a trend of "multi-point flowering".
But Barkley let out a short sigh: "It has to be Li Wan who attacks by himself, and it will be refreshing for this team to win!"
Since the beginning of the new season, Li Wan has generally focused on strengthening his personal offense. He can often score 10 to [-] points by the end of the first half. With such a ferocious offensive, many teams can't hold on even in the first half and are a bit defeated. In the season, it is common for the Columbus Explorers to lead by more than [-] points at halftime.
But in this game, Li Wan focused on the organization side, and as a result... he managed to exert all his strength in the second quarter, pulling away the double digits, but he was still slowly grinded back by the opponent.
Does this mean that Li Wan's shot is the best choice for the Columbus Explorers?
Kenny Smith said: "It may also be because they are facing the Warriors tonight!"
This is the current No. [-] in the West!
And it is the number one in the Western Conference that came out of the "three heroes tied" situation. With the gold content here, it is definitely not easy to win.
In fact, because the Columbus Explorers lost to the Trail Blazers, in the eyes of many media before the game, Columbus was the side with a smaller chance of winning.
It's not that the Warriors will definitely win if they meet in the finals this season, but the Columbus Explorers will definitely lose.
But just this game.
But after watching the first half, their first reaction was...
Are these Columbus people excited when they beat the Warriors?
The reason is the same as what Steve Kerr thinks. Compared with other teams, the state gap of Columbus's players except Li Wan is indeed a bit too big!
This is not for what is this?
The game continued in the second half, as if to verify Kenny Smith's idea, Li Wan began to strengthen his personal offense, and his tidal three-pointers began to exert force.
This is another notable feature of Li Wan on the playing field in the new season:
This season, Li Wan's performance outside the three-point line has reached a new level, averaging 7.4 three-pointers per game.
Just relying on three-pointers, Li Wan can score 22 points in every game.
Li Wan can get 36 points in 50 minutes, which is also an important reason.
The entire Warriors rely on three-pointers to defeat their opponents. This team's three-pointers are extremely fierce. They can make about 14 three-pointers in each game. Add up to get double-digit three-pointers.
To be honest, just outside the three-point line, Steve Kerr can say very domineeringly:
What situation have I never experienced?
But seeing that Li Wan scored 6 three-pointers in less than 5 minutes of the third quarter, he could only say: "I have never seen such a situation!"
This is too brutal.
Even if it's Stephen Curry, it can't be as simple as shooting a three-pointer like eating and drinking?
When Li Wan hit 5 consecutive three-pointers, the Columbus Explorers also opened the point difference to more than double digits.
But the Warriors once again showed their resilience. It was Kevin Durant who took the lead and used his strong singles ability to complete the offense and successfully stabilized the point difference.
In the fourth quarter of the game, with the persistence of the Warriors, the point difference suddenly returned to 6 points.
In the last 2 minutes of the game, the point difference came to within 3 points, a difference of one goal.
At the critical moment of the two teams, Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant hit key shots consecutively, but Li Wan is not the only one who has the ability to make key shots for the Columbus Explorers.
Carmelo Anthony, who gave LeBron James a heartbreaking moment in the third game of the finals last season, once again completed the "quasi lore".
119 to 117, the Columbus Explorers defended their home victory by 2 points and did not lose to the second "Three Heroes in the West".
Seriously, even with Li Wan, if they lose to the Warriors after losing to the Trail Blazers, then the prospect of the Columbus Explorers winning the championship will definitely be underestimated, that's for sure!
No one will always be looked up to, they all speak with their performance and leadership ability, unless this person controls the media.
The game whistle blew, and the data on both sides was frozen:
Li Wan scored 16 points in the first half. He originally thought that this game should be the fourth time he scored less than 50 points in a single game this season. Unexpectedly, he scored 5 three-pointers in a single quarter in the third quarter. The ball was completed in a very short time, and at the same time he quickly scored 15 points, Li Wan immediately made sudden shots and scored 8 points. In the entire third quarter, Li Wan scored 23 points. As a result, his scoring soared to 39 points before the arrival of the fourth quarter.
11 points in the fourth quarter when scoring is required. For Li Wan, it was not a difficult number at all. He even scored 7 points before half a quarter was over. In the end, Li Wan's score in this game was fixed at 55 points.In addition, there are 15 assists and 12 rebounds.
Ah!
In this game, Li Wan successfully won a "large triple-double" of 50 plus!
In addition to him, Carmelo Anthony scored 20 points. It seemed that the score was not high, but in the end he hit a "quasi lore", with one ball topping dozens of balls.
Wiggins scored 17 points. It can only be said that this is very Wiggins.
He performed well outside the three-point line, hitting a total of 7 three-pointers.
Warriors here:
凯文-杜兰特全场砍下了32分,另外拿到了6个篮板跟5次助攻;格林拿到了9分6篮板8助攻的“三单”;“水花兄弟”联手贡献了7记三分球,斯蒂芬-库里砍下了26分4篮板5助攻,克莱-汤普森砍下了18分,投篮命中率超过了50%!
If you just look at the data of this group of people, they actually played very well in this game. It can be said that they played out their usual state.
Of course, this is also normal. After all, the Warriors only lost 2 points after the game ended.
Steve Kerr feels perverted about the state of the Columbus Explorers, but he agrees with the performance of the Warriors in this "Christmas Game".
In particular, Kevin Durant's performance can be said to have proved his ability to play singles with the ball, and he has someone he can rely on for the team's singles with the ball that he is thinking about.
In this way, when the situation needs to be stabilized, the Warriors' choice is not just to shoot three-pointers, but has a more trustworthy way.
With the "Splash Brothers" having time to buffer, they tied the point difference twice in the game undoubtedly proved that they have the ability to chase points against any team.
So after this game, it seems that they were still defeated by Columbus like the third game of last season's finals, but in Steve Kerr's view, this is their most promising year!
After the "Christmas War", the Columbus Explorers have 3 games left.
Li Wan continued his average of 50 points per game and led Columbus to a wave of winning streak to end their entire journey in December.
Throughout December, the Columbus team had 12 wins and 12 losses,
Because of the "back-to-back", some tactical adjustments and the ups and downs of the players, the Columbus Explorers lost more this month.
It can only be ranked second in the East.
Even tied with the third Bucks.
But even so, the "East Player of the Month Award" in December still belongs to Li Wan.
No way, his average per game is too perverted. After averaging nearly 11 points per game in November, Li Wan's average per game this month is still a terrifying 56 points, including two 55.8-plus points in a single game, which is very coincidental. , once at the beginning of the month, and then once at the end of the month.
In addition, there are 13.6 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 3 steals and 1.8 blocks.
Although this alliance has an unwritten rule of "praising the new but not the old", it likes "freshness".
But the problem is, when a player is perverted to the extent of Li Wan, if you still ignore him, let alone Li Wan refuses to agree, these media reporters and fans will first question,
"New York Times": "This alliance will never hide the super giant that is so awesome!"
In other words, if the super giant is subconsciously ignored by the "hidden rules" of the league, then please consider whether it is your own problem!
In fact, before this season, they would definitely not have said such things. Instead, they would blame the league for not giving Li Wan enough respect.
But after Li Wan played a performance that refreshed everyone's perception, the "New York Times" immediately changed its face, trying to highlight Li Wan's uniqueness!
Ok……
When Barkley saw this article, he immediately said: "In terms of flattery, I am not as good as the New York Times!"
This novel angle is really too...
He can also be regarded as opening the door to a new world. On the road of touting, there is no strongest, only stronger!
“字母哥”得到了一些惋惜声,因为这家伙在几年的数据来到了场均27.8分10.5篮板6.4助攻1.3抢断1.5盖帽……
With such data, "Antetokounmpo" should have become another new "strike benchmark" in the league this season.
But it turns out that...
Li Wan's "Super God Season [-]" made this group of people all bleak.
After averaging 55.8 points per game for another month, Li Wan's total career points reached 28238 points!
28596 points away from Shaq O'Neal's 358 points...
Based on Li Wan's state in December, in about 12 games, Li Wan can surpass Shaquille O'Neal.
This speed is actually very fast, but don't forget, next is January, and in November and December after this season has been played, Li Wan's scoring average has reached 1 points...
Then comes "Crazy January"... who knows if he will be even crazier!
It is said that it will definitely not...
But because he is Li Wan...
No one dares to guarantee that he will not play a crazier performance.
First game in January.
Before Li Wanchao passed Shaq O'Neal, LeBron James passed Shaq O'Neal first.
He scored 1 points in the first game in January, bringing his career scoring to 37 points, surpassing Shaquille O'Neal to the seventh place in the total scoring list.
Then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, before surpassing Shaquille O'Neal, Li Wan passed him.
You know, everyone knows that when he was only 4 points away from Shaq O'Neal, Li Wan was more than 1 points away. If Li Wan passed him before he surpassed Shaq O'Neal , then the gap in scoring ability between him and Li Wan is too big, right?
Although this is true, in terms of the state Li Wan has shown this season, in the history of this league, there are not many players whose scoring ability is not far behind Li Wan.
But LeBron James doesn't want this to happen.
Fortunately, it was avoided...
The moment the Lakers coach passed Shaquille O'Neal, he was going to call a timeout for LeBron James, but what he didn't expect was that before he called a timeout for LeBron James, LeBron James gave Called a timeout.
This operation stunned the head coach of the Lakers.
He has always believed that LeBron James is the fastest when he is playing fast break, but now it seems that the speed at which he calls a timeout at this time is even worse than when he is playing fast break!
It's too perverted!
He needs to digest it.
On the second day of January, the Columbus Explorers also ushered in their first game in January. Before the game, Li Wan received his second "Player of the Month Award" this season.
It is worth mentioning that when ESPN reported this matter, it also bluntly stated that "this season's regular season MVP competition is actually over!"
Wouldn't someone really not vote for Li Wan this season as the MVP of the regular season?
If this incident really happened, the journalists who did not vote for Li Wan first would be dug out and "whipped corpses" in various ways.
And, don't forget, standing behind Li Wan are all kinds of brain-dead New York fans.
Even today, they are happy and ran to set fire to Dolan's house!
These people are not afraid of going to jail at all, they are even more afraid of Giegie being wronged...
After the Columbus Explorers' first game of the new year, the first sentence of many reporters reporting the game was:
As expected of Li Wan!
Sure enough, they were not disappointed!
What this means is...
"January Madness", here it comes!
Li Wan, who averaged 55.7 points per game in the first two months, scored 1 points in the first game in January.
This is his highest score in a single game so far this season.
Such a score was scored in the first game in January. If you say that Li Wan didn't do it on purpose, these reporters really don't believe it!
The 358 point difference with Shaq O'Neal, after this game, also came to 290 points...
Li Wan's score continued to rise in the following!
Yes, you read that right, even though he scored 1 points in the first game in January, he still scored new season highs in the next few games in January.
In the second game in January, Li Wan scored his first 1 points of the season.
In the third game in January, Li Wan scored 1 points...
It wasn't until the fourth game that his scoring in a single game fell back to 42 points.
But after he played for more than 4 minutes in the third quarter, he was sitting and resting off the court. No matter how you look at it, it makes people think that he is resting in rotation, recovering his physical fitness, and preparing to continue crazy...
And after scoring 2 70 points in a single game and 42 points in a single game, he is only 108 points away from Shaquille O'Neal...
In the next game, the Columbus Explorers challenged the Magic away.
This is the first time Li Wan has returned to Orlando in the new season.
There weren't many questions about Lee Wan's scoring total surpassing Shaquille O'Neal in this game.
Because there are still 108 points behind, how to say, it takes two games!
Everyone thinks that the next game is to witness the historic moment.
but……
During practice, Vince Carter accidentally sprained his foot, and...
When the game time came, Li Wan saw a familiar figure in the auditorium beside the court:
That hill-like obese appearance, and that "salted egg" hairstyle that doesn't grow any grass.
Shaq O'Neal actually appeared on the sidelines of tonight's game. When he saw Li Wan, his first words were:
"Li Wan, surpass me tonight if you have the ability!"
Ok……
He also came to give Li Wan strength! (end of this chapter)
