Chapter 377 A somewhat depressed James
Chapter 377 A somewhat depressed James
Not yet in the league.
James has been hailed by the media as an unprecedented favorite in the entire basketball world.
His dominance in high school was truly astonishing.
Everyone knows it, even those without a college basketball background.
Entering the NBA directly, James will also be a rare immediate combat capability.
Besides, he is still very young.
I think it has unlimited potential.
In addition, James also knew very well that he was influenced by Zhou Yao.
Before this, people were still somewhat skeptical about how much high school students would participate in the draft.
Although, there are already many seniors.
As soon as he entered the league, he started as a substitute.
Moreover, Garnett was not the best rookie that year.
Moreover, even now, Garnett has not helped the Timberwolves bring them the championship they long for.
Although there are various reasons for this.
However, without a championship, everything is nonsense.
When Zhou Yao first entered the league, he faced huge doubts.
A high school rookie.
Even if he is the number one high school student in the United States.
Why choose him as the top pick?
Many people are waiting for Jordan to be slapped in the face.
The result was that that year, the Wizards were the champions.
Zhou Yao was an All-Star substitute in his first year in the league.
Real and fake rookie.
dpoy.
The leader in steals and assists.
He also set a new record for assists in a single game in the finals.
Even though Zhou Yao has been criticized for not being able to shoot.
No one questions Jordan's draft vision anymore.
James almost followed in Zhou Yao's footsteps and entered the league.
It's a pity that he didn't meet Zhou Yao in his rookie season.
Those two damn Koreans cost Zhou Yao his season.
James regrets not being able to compete directly with his draft template.
Of course, what's even more regrettable is that they didn't make the playoffs that year.
In addition, including James himself, everyone felt that he would never have a chance to compete directly with Zhou Yao again.
With such a serious injury, Zhou Yao would most likely retire directly.
Even if he stays in the NBA, he will be an insignificant role player at best.
But who knows.
The 2004 mini-draft was held exclusively for the Bobcats.
The boss of the Wizards really doesn't care about old friendships at all.
Zhou Yao was not included in the 8-man protection list.
And Jordan also chose Zhou Yao unceremoniously.
Some people say that Jordan did not stumble on Zhou Yao last time, but this time he could no longer escape.
James was a little excited.
Maybe, I really have a chance to compete directly with Zhou Yao on the basketball court.
As a result, they still didn't make the playoffs that year.
But Zhou Yao led the Bobcats to the championship.
At the same time, James' attention was also attracted by Zhou Yao's younger brother Jr.
James always wonders if he had such a person beside him, would he already have a championship?
By the way, there were actually top 10 draft picks that year.
The management was really blind and let such a high school genius go for nothing.
Oh, and Pavlovich.
A few months ago he was his most unpromising younger brother.
Who would have thought that this guy's three-point shot is so strong.
Now, the Cavaliers management still has to find a way to trade him back.
If I had known this, why bother.
……
Let’s get back to James himself.
The league has always been good to him.
Even if you don't take into account Xiao Hua's tricks, it is still excellent.
David Stern can be said to be very knowledgeable about the operation of the league.
In the 80s, Big Bird and Magician were mainly promoted.
In the 90s, Jordan and his various successors were mainly promoted.
All were a great success.
As for now.
There are two main lines in the alliance.
One is 23vs24, that is Zhou Yao vs Kobe.
The other one is 23vs23, which is Zhou Yao vs. James.
Now it seems that the showdown between Zhou Yao and Kobe is really a ratings guarantee for the league.
Especially last season, a peak showdown of 91:88.
91: 88.
This looks more like a game score.
But the fact is that Kobe scored 91 points in a single game, and Zhou Yao also scored 88 points.
A battle between the strongest kings.
In other words, this year's Christmas game is the Bobcats versus the Lakers.
Everyone is looking forward to such a feast.
In comparison, the duel between Zhou Yao and James seemed too inferior.
Not to mention the referee who disrupted the situation.
James' own performance is hardly perfect.
Of course, this season's 23vs23 is still interesting.
In the last game, James scored 61 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 steals, and 1 block.
Winning on data is very beautiful.
And throughout the game, the Cavaliers suppressed the Bobcats most of the time.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, they directly defeated their opponents by 23 points.
However, Zhou Yao's 18 rebounds, 18 assists, and 12 steals are also amazing.
The important thing is that the 23-point advantage was regained by the Bobcats.
This makes James' 60+ triple-double suddenly look inferior.
After the game, no one mentioned these statistics at all.
……
Game start.
James' performance was very active.
Stealed Jr. and then assisted Larry Hughes.
0: 3.
Facing center Milicic who is 213cm tall.
James also showed no signs of weakness.
Give away the pegboard cap.
Received a pass from Eric Snow and scored a layup.
0: 5.
The game started with momentum.
The atmosphere at the home court also improved a little bit.
Bobcats attack.
Zhou Yao passes the ball to Peja.
Shoot from outside the three-point line, but don't score.
James almost swooped in to grab the rebound.
Then assisted Larry Hughes.
0: 8.
Spoelstra called a timeout.
The game had just started and the opponent was beaten until a timeout was called.
And every 8 consecutive points was related to James.
In the eyes of many people, James will lead the team to keep victory in Cleveland.
And it ended the Bobcats' 20-game winning streak.
James himself will also get good data.
It's all so wonderful.
The game restarts.
Zhou Yao dribbled the ball across the half.
It's just a disguised form to show off to Eric Snow.
There was no pass, just a shot from outside the three-point line.
The ball goes in.
3: 8.
"Do you want to beat us with three-pointers?"
"Don't you take it too much for granted?"
While retreating to half court, Zhou Yao shrugged towards the Cavaliers generals.
James was also helpless about this.
However, Zhou Yao does have the capital to say such things.
He has scored 115 three-pointers this season.
No.
Counting the one just now, there are already 116 three-pointers.
Last season, second-ranked Ray Allen only scored 269 three-pointers throughout the season.
It took Ray Allen 78 games to do it.
An average of 3.4 three-pointers per game is already very impressive.
Now, Zhou Yao's 115 only took 20 games.
As for last season.
Zhou Yao played 60 games and scored 363 three-point goals.
Not to mention that Ray Allen's 269 three-pointers took 653 shots.
Zhou Yao, on the other hand, made 353 three-pointers, taking a total of 364 shots.
Unless you invite that man from Los Angeles over.
Otherwise, if Zhou Yao wants to shoot a three-pointer, he will definitely make it...
