Chapter 459 The Third Battle!
70 points in a single game!
New individual scoring record in a single game in the NBA playoffs!
In terms of scoring in a single game, Sun Zhuo has completely surpassed Michael Jordan, the god of basketball. Whether it is in the regular season or in the playoffs, the current scoring record in the regular season is held by Kobe's 82 points, but I believe it will not be long. Sun Zhuo will once again surpass Kobe and become the number one.
The playoffs are very defensive games. In many cases, the entire team only scored about 70 points. However, Sun Zhuo alone scored so many points. The Celtics used all the defense they could. But Sun Zhuo still scored so many incredible goals, 2+1, even 3+1.
Kevin Durant looked at Sun Zhuo with fiery eyes, and his heart was agitated: "If I were in the Supersonics, maybe I would watch this game at this time, but I will never be in such a shocking mood. The 70 points , I watched Sun get it, and even participated in it, which is incredible."
Even though Durant looked at how Sun Zhuo scored these points, at this moment, Durant couldn't believe it was real.
The 70th point directly determined the outcome of the game. After that, the confidence of the Celtic players gradually collapsed, and they were unable to catch up with the score until the last moment of the game.
"Win, haha! You are great, Sun, you have set a record!" Magic's teammates had all flocked to Sun Zhuo, and everyone celebrated him happily.
Artest also touched Sun Zhuo's head and said, "Sun, I originally wanted to prove that the Magic could defeat the Celtics with my participation. I didn't expect you to solve them alone in the first game."
Sun Zhuo said with a smile: "The game is not won by me alone. Without your restrictions on Paul Pierce, without other people grabbing rebounds for me and passing the ball for me, I can't do it."
Sun Zhuo is very grateful to Artest, the defensive end can be handed over to him, and Sun Zhuo can fully focus on offense.
After this battle, Sun Zhuo once again caused a sensation after media reports. Fans who were not optimistic about the Magic's championship also began to rethink. Will Sun Zhuo lead the team to complete the feat of three consecutive championships by himself?
If Sun Zhuo can really do it, then the gold content of this champion is very high!
After the game, the Celtics Big Three, plus Rondo, stayed in the arena to continue training. This can be regarded as their self-punishment for this loss.
"We messed up the first home game." Garnett lowered his head, and as the leader, he looked guilty.
Paul Pierce looked more angry: "Did you see what Sun and Ron Artest said in an interview with reporters after the game? They said that since you can gain home court advantage through one game, why should you do it?" Fighting for 82 games in the regular season? This is simply the most arrogant statement I have ever heard!"
"They seem to have forgotten that they are still playing at our home court." Ray Allen also said something, but he yawned after he finished speaking. In fact, Junzi Lei is not going to stay for extra practice tonight. He wants to go early Going back to sleep was forced to stay by Pierce.
And Rondo does not belong to one of the Big Three, he joined voluntarily, Rondo said: "It is impossible for Sun to play like this for the entire series? I can deal with Monta Ellis, if he gets more shots If not, I think the Magic's scoring efficiency will drop."
Paul Pierce said: "In any case, in the next game, Sun can't be allowed to score so recklessly again. I will defend harder, and each of us must be tougher on him. In addition, the coach also said, Whoever he defends in the next game will be more aggressive on offense, Ray Allen, if he defends you, you will have to move more to consume him."
"No problem, it's just that this guy is very fast. It's really not easy to get rid of him." Ray Allen knew that Sun Zhuo was not a very good defensive player, but Sun Zhuo's speed awareness was also good. It's tough.
Pierce nodded and said, "If we lose again in the next game, then we will be really in danger..."
……
The next day, the Western Conference also started the first game of the finals. At the home court of the Los Angeles Lakers, the old rival San Antonio Spurs came to challenge.
The old enemies of the Lakers and Spurs lasted for several years before Sun Zhuo joined the Lakers. Unexpectedly, it is now in 2008, and these two teams are the strongest in the West.
Sun Zhuo also watched the first game. Based on his feelings and memories of his previous life, he knew that if nothing else happened, the Lakers would advance in this series.
The Spurs' GDP is indeed still at its peak, but the role players have a single function and play more singles, while the Lakers have a bunch of bench thugs who often open the score when they rotate the lineup.
Moreover, the Lakers have always been a little bit against the Spurs, and Kobe is known as the "Spurs killer". In the past, he could win the Spurs when O'Neal and Sun Zhuo helped him. Now without these two people, Kobe has to prove that he can beat them.
The Lakers and Spurs are both opponents that Sun Zhuo met in the finals. Sun Zhuo very much hopes to have a peak match with Kobe, but at the same time, he also wants to avenge the Spurs last year. Therefore, regardless of whether these two teams Whoever advances, Sun Zhuo will be very excited.
Of course, the premise is that he has to pass the Celtics. Leading 1:0 does not guarantee anything. If he can win 2:0 in the away game, he can be a little proud.
On May 5, the Boston Celtics played in Game 22 of the Eastern Conference Finals.
The moment Sun Zhuo entered the arena, he gave all Celtics fans an invisible psychological pressure.
"Sun is so crazy. He even scored 70 points in the last game. I don't know what he will do in this game."
"The next game after Michael Jordan scored 63 points against the Celtics, he only scored 19 points. This is in great contrast to the crazy previous game. I guess Sun will also enter mediocrity today. If you say he only scored more than 20 points in this game, I will believe it."
"Man, although the opponents are our Boston Celtics, the situation back then is different from this year. Jordan scored 63 points alone and failed to win, so he will change his style of play in the next game. I remember he got 9 or 10 assists in the next game, but Sun really won the ball with his own ability, it is hard to guarantee that he will not do it again this time."
Everyone is guessing what Sun Zhuo is thinking. Sun Zhuo scored 70 points and won the game by himself in the last game. Will he do the same in this game?
In fact, Sun Zhuo has no specific ideas about how many points he should score in this game. He can only look at his own state and the defense of the opponent.
The players on both sides were slow to enter the state. Because the Celtics strengthened their defense against Sun Zhuo, Sun Zhuo really wanted to change his style of play. He didn't rush to attack like the previous game. The game was played for a long time, and it was not particularly crazy. moment appears.
In this case, it is easier to see the attitude and status of the players on both sides.
Celtic's attitude is very tough, and the state is very good, each of them showed a determination to equalize the score, and never let the Magic win two consecutive away games.
On the contrary, after winning one game, the Magic already felt very lucky. The opponent was not a rookie, and they couldn't kill them all. They won two games in a row.
However, even in terms of attitude, the Celtics wanted to win more, but Sun Zhuo's personal ability still scared the Celtics into a cold sweat.
In the second half of the second quarter, Sun Zhuo suddenly showed his power. He made an emergency stop and made a mid-range shot and a three-pointer.
However, the Celtics immediately took measures against Sun Zhuo, preventing him from receiving the ball, restricting him from shooting in any form, and letting him distribute the ball. As a result, Durant and others did not make a good shot. Only then was he able to slowly regain control of the game in his own hands.
In the end, the Celtics won the second game without any risk and tied the total score at 1:1.
Sun Zhuo held two match repeat challenge cards in his hand, and under normal circumstances, he would not use them at this time.
When he returns to the home court, Sun Zhuo will strive to win both home games. At that time, the Eastern Conference finals may not need to use a repeat challenge card.
The next day, the Lakers and the Spurs played Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals again. There was no suspense in this game. The Lakers beat the Spurs from start to finish. It was much easier to win than the previous game, taking a 0-[-] lead.
Subsequently, both the Magic and Celtics flew to Orlando for Game [-].
Two hours before the start of the game, the Magic team was doing simple shooting training. At this time, the arena also opened up the media to enter. Due to Sun Zhuo's super perfect performance in G1, almost all the reporters flocked to Sun Zhuo, including just now. Kristin Laidlow on The Reporter.
"Sun, what do you think of the third game? Will you still be as crazy as you showed in the first game?"
"How many points do you plan to score in the third game? Do you think if you score 70 points again, you can guarantee victory?"
"What do you think is the hardest part of this year without Dwight Howard?"
The blond beauty Ledlow was not given special care among the reporters. It is difficult for her to interview Sun Zhuo now, but Durant, who has a crush on her, finds it very uncomfortable.
"I don't care that everyone else is flocking to Sun and ignoring me, I just care about you, Christine, why can't you just come up and ask me a question, even if it's just to ask how I'm doing today, just because I can't stand alone Do you score 70 points in a game? If one day, I can do what Sun can do in the playoffs, will you like me because of it?"
Durant's heart is very fragile, especially when facing the woman he likes.
After Kristin Laidlow gave up fighting with these reporters and took a step back, Durant immediately stepped forward and greeted her shyly: "Hey."
"Hey, Kevin, how do you feel?" When Ledlow looked at Durant, his eyes still looked a little disappointed, which came from the disappointment of not interviewing Sun Zhuo.
Durant became excited: "I feel good, I'm in a very good state today, you know? Just now I made ten consecutive three-pointers and made nine of them!"
"Wow, I really hope you can bring this kind of touch to today's game. By the way, how is Sun doing these two days?" Just after chatting for a few words, Ledlow brought the topic to Sun Zhuo.
"It's like this again." Durant's expression became depressed. The two have known each other for a long time. Since they joined the Magic, they have occasionally contacted each other, but every time they chat, they can't say a few words. Sun Zhuo, asked Durant about Sun Zhuo.
Sun Zhuo always looks cold and mysterious in front of Ledlow, which instead makes Ledlow more fascinated by Sun Zhuo.
"Do you know that he already has a girlfriend?" Durant whispered in an inaudible voice.
"What are you talking about? How is Sun?" Laidlow was completely unaware of Durant's thoughts.
Durant quickly covered it with a smile: "I said he was in good shape. He said that these two home games are very important to us, and he will try to win them all. He also said that these two games will give me more offensive opportunities. My scoring It won't be as low as the previous two games."
Ledlow nodded: "Kevin, you have to work hard. Among the rookies in the same class, you are the only one who can participate in the division finals in the first year of entering the NBA. Even facing a great team like the Celtics with the Big Three." The team, it’s all because of Sun’s leadership, he also attaches great importance to you, the first two rounds of the series gave you a lot of style of play and confidence, you have to give it back in this round of the series.”
Laidlow obviously supported the Magic because of Sun Zhuo. Durant was very sad in his heart and said forcefully, "I will do my best."
This heart-piercing and smug statement did not get a strong response, because Ledlow suddenly saw that Sun Zhuo had finished dealing with the reporters and walked towards her, and he immediately followed.
Durant looked at Sun Zhuo, and the fluctuation in his heart was probably stronger than Pierce, Garnett, and Ray Allen combined when they saw Sun Zhuo.
At the beginning of the third game, Durant still played as a substitute, but his expression was a little different today.
When the starter was about to play, Sun Zhuo habitually touched the soles of his shoes, then took two steps to the side, and suddenly found a very familiar face, and immediately greeted him with a smile: "Hey."
For Sun Zhuo, this was nothing unusual. Sun Zhuo was friends with many people in the sports, entertainment and even business circles, and there were often people in the auditorium. Sun Zhuo greeted them like this.
However, Sun Zhuo found that the other party had a surprised expression on his face.
"Ah? Is he greeting me?" The beautiful woman who was greeted by Sun Zhuo looked flattered.
Sun Zhuo looked carefully again, and then realized that this greeting should not be said. She is Elizabeth Olsen who was just 19 years old. The two of them have indeed met and had a friendship, but it is not Sun Zhuo who has friendship with her. , but Sun Zhuo turned into a white man!
Sun Zhuo got his identity wrong!
At this time, Elizabeth Olsen hadn't filmed or become famous yet, so Sun Zhuo shouldn't know her.
Kevin Garnett and Ron Artest also noticed this weird scene, and their eyes became intriguing.
