Chapter 229 Breaking the record
In the playoffs, the weaknesses of players and teams will be infinitely targeted and magnified, making a player who looks qualified at first look extremely bad.
It is precisely for this reason that the number of player rotations in the playoffs is often less than that in the regular season.
Because some players who seem to be useful in the regular season cannot play at all, and will be targeted continuously as soon as they play.
Buckner was in this situation at this time, but George Karl couldn't solve it, and the backup shooting guard was worse than Buckner.
On the court, the Clippers ran out of tactics. He Xinghui landed in front of Buckner and broke through without saying a word. Buckner couldn't keep up, so he had to foul He Xinghui and send He Xinghui to the free throw line.
After making two free throws, the Nuggets counterattacked. Anthony slipped to the basket with difficulty, received a pass from Andre Miller, and scored the ball while the Clippers' inside line did not react.
The title of offensive kaleidoscope is not exclusive to Pierce. He wants to share it with Anthony, because Anthony's offensive methods are also very rich.
In the transition between offense and defense, Mobley singled Buckner, seeing that Buckner was about to lose his position, Anthony rushed over and tried to double-team, forcing Mobley to make a mistake.
However, Mobley played the ball quickly and passed the ball to He Xinghui.
The Nuggets' Najera actively made up for it. He had more than enough energy, but his strength was insufficient and his speed was too slow.
Before he could support Anthony back, He Xinghui passed him with speed and rushed to the basket to score.
In this round, on the surface, it seemed that Najera was blown up, but the actual source of the problem was Buckner.
After playing a dozen or so rounds, the score was 12 to 20. The Nuggets were already behind by eight points, and the first quarter was just halfway through.
The Clippers' horrible shooting percentage made Anthony completely disappointed in Buckner.
Even if it is an unimportant field game, if there is a dragging player in the team, his teammates will be unhappy, let alone this is a crucial NBA playoffs.
This series will affect Anthony's evaluation, status, fame and income.
And now, all of this is being destroyed by teammates.
His scoring on the offensive end, his efforts on the defensive end, have all become useless.
Ever since, his enthusiasm on the defensive end began to decline, and he became the melon that fans are familiar with.
Subsequently, Anthony and He Xinghui launched a battle for points.
On the defensive end, Anthony defended symbolically, instead of desperately, all his strength was reserved for the offensive end.
However, Anthony soon discovered that He Xinghui's defense seemed to be getting worse, and his offense became easier.
Like him, He Xinghui also wants to keep his energy on the offensive end.
In other words, he actually wants to score a little on the Nuggets.
In the battle with the Mavericks, he will definitely be strictly guarded, and the score may not be too high.
If he wants to keep the No. [-] position in the playoffs scoring list, he has to spend a little more time on the Nuggets.
Therefore, he wished that Anthony would play a tacit game with himself.
This kind of tacit understanding does not mean that winning or losing has been discussed, but that the defensive strength is not acquiesced.
On the court, He Xinghui singled out Anthony, pretended to make a breakthrough, and then took a step back to shoot. Anthony jumped a little, meaning that he was not as fierce as before.
The ball goes in.
Conversely, when Anthony hit He Xinghui, he only took a few hits, and He Xinghui took a few steps back and put Anthony under the basket. If he backed away, he would hold hands with Kaman.
This position is almost free for Anthony, and he scored the ball very unceremoniously.
The offensive and defensive transition, He Xinghui broke through Anthony, rushed to the basket and made a small throw, and the ball scored.
The Nuggets attacked, and Anthony looked at He Xinghui who put him two steps away, and simply threw a three-pointer.
During this period, Anthony's three-pointers were still very bad.
Of course, this rot is relative to those excellent three-pointers.
In the case of being completely open, his shooting percentage is actually not bad.
Not to mention him, even Howard, in daily training, can actually hit [-] to [-] percent of his three-pointers.
However, this kind of hit rate will be at least [-]% off when it is disturbed.
With a shooting percentage of 20.00%, there is no point in shooting in NBA games. It is a waste of offensive opportunities, so fans can't see Howard throwing three-pointers.
This time Anthony was lucky and scored a three-pointer.
Then, Anthony retreated with a smile.
He found that after he lowered his defensive intensity, the team played better. At least in these few rounds, they played evenly, and the point difference did not continue to widen.
This made Anthony more firm in his belief in counter-offensive.
He thought, if he kept playing like this, until the end when he suddenly increased his strength, or his hand felt explosive, or He Xinghui's hand felt cold, he would have a chance to win.
The two began to compete with each other, and after the first quarter, the score of the two sides became an astonishing 33 to 42.
Anthony and He Xinghui jointly contributed 40 points, with Anthony 18 and He Xinghui 22.
Anthony mainly hits two-pointers, and He Xinghui takes more three-pointers, which is more advantageous.
At the scene, some fans have already held up 82 and 83 signs.
82 means He Xinghui's highest score ever, and it is a symbol of He Xinghui's strength.
The fans who raised 83 hope that He Xinghui can surpass himself.
Scoring 83 points in the playoffs is outrageous, but some extreme star fans don't realize it, and always believe that He Xinghui will do it in a certain game.
Therefore, there are a few diehard fans who will bring some props every time they watch the game.
And now, they see hope.
A single quarter is 22, and then multiplied by 4, isn't it 88, I hope it will be a big drop.
TNT, Barkley rants: "The tricky guy."
He didn't say it clearly, only some more professional people can understand what he means, this is to complain about He Xinghui's points.
Others can't see it, but Barkley has no problem. He knows He Xinghui too well.
When other players play in the playoffs, they always want to kill their opponents at once. The bigger the difference, the more at ease. No one will be confident enough to control the points. They are all afraid of overturning.
But Barkley believes that He Xinghui has the courage and courage to control points.
"I have to say that this kind of confidence is unmatched in the entire league. To be honest, I have begun to believe that my cousin knows martial arts. Otherwise, how could he have such ample confidence?"
There are not many people who can understand Barkley, but Smith is definitely one of them.
"No, I believe that it's his thick skin that makes him so confident. Anyway, if the boat capsizes, he can do it without embarrassment."
Barkley complained.
"Hahaha, having said that, this kind of confrontational battle is really good. You keep scoring goals and scoring goals. It's not like the game between the Pistons and the Cavaliers. In addition to hitting irons or irons, they finally gained two points and got free throws. .The whole game is foul, get to the free throw line, foul again, get to the free throw line, a game on and off.”
Smith grumbled.
While they were talking nonsense, the Clippers and Nuggets' substitutes were already having fun on the court.
After Mobley was mentioned as the starter, the Clippers' bench became much weaker all of a sudden, and they couldn't take advantage of the Nuggets' bench at all.
But at this time, George Karl's value was reflected.
Through reasonable tactical arrangements, he allowed the bench to score points one after another.
On the other hand, the Clippers failed to score consecutively.
In desperation, Dunleavy also made adjustments, and he asked Mobley to come forward with a substitute in advance.
He felt that in the main lineup, He Xinghui took up a lot of shots, and it was a waste to continue to let Mobley and He Xinghui play together.
The reason why he didn't arrange this at the beginning is because he didn't expect the Nuggets' defense to collapse so quickly.
Mobley only rested for a few minutes and returned to the field with a substitute.
After he played, there was no way to change the team's defense.
Fortunately, he can score consecutive points on the offensive end, so that the team does not suffer.
"This old fox."
George Karl cursed secretly, still thinking about the game.
Before he could think of a good countermeasure, the main players of both sides had almost rested, and the main players began to play one after another.
On the Clippers side, except for Kaman, who is relatively large in tonnage, who is still resting, the others have been replaced, and the Nuggets are similar.
When their main force came on the field, the point difference between the two sides had narrowed to 4 points.
"Cousin should almost strengthen his defense. After all, leading by 4 points is not safe."
Smith said.
"It's a good thing he couldn't hear your advice, otherwise he would have stopped to talk trash at you."
Speaking, Barkley also imitated He Xinghui's tone: "Kenny, you are wrong, we lead by 7 points."
"Hahaha"
Smith was amused by this remark, and he believed that Barkley was right this time, and He Xinghui would definitely do the same.
On the field, the game continues.
Smith's prediction was wrong, He Xinghui didn't strengthen the defensive team, and he still fought with Anthony, watching Cavaliers fans, Lakers fans, and Wizards fans yelling.
"It's not fair, the data typed out like this has no gold content."
A Zhan fan said angrily that he felt unfair for his idol.
Because the media and fans often use data to judge the strength of a player, but the current situation is that James has to face the siege of five black and strong men.
Every data obtained is very difficult.
But now He Xinghui has not been strictly guarded against, and his score has skyrocketed, as simple as eating and drinking water.
In this case, it would be unfair to James to use data to measure which of the two is better.
"The scoring list should be divided into the first round, the second round, and the final."
A fan of the Wizards murmured that he was worried that if he continued to play like this, He Xinghui would secure the No. [-] scoring average in the playoffs, and his idol Arenas would have no chance at all.
"This kind of scoring list in the playoffs is meaningless and has no reference value, because some people can play many games against a weak team in a row. To see the gold content, you still have to look at the regular season."
A Comey delivered his sage.
The score in the playoffs does not have gold content, but it does in the regular season. It is not surprising that such weird remarks come from Komi.
Komi also said that the overall hit rate is meaningless, and it doesn't matter if the overall hit rate is low.To measure whether a player is strong or not, it depends on the shooting percentage at the critical moment. As long as he can hit at the critical moment, it is great.
Of course they don't understand that if the overall hit rate is high, the opponent can be beaten to surrender early, and there are not so many critical moments at all.
As an old Chinese saying goes, a good fighter has no great achievements.
The really good generals rarely have particularly beautiful battles. They always beat their opponents upright and steady.
This kind of story without suspense and reversal, and without the victory of the weak over the strong, is always difficult to pass down, resulting in their low reputation.
On the contrary, some generals with no real skills can easily put themselves and the army into a desperate situation, and then win a game by gambling, which can give people a very amazing feeling.
However, when people who read the story felt that they were awesome, they actually ignored the fact that most people lost their bets.
And these stories of losing the bet have not been handed down.
Naturally, the fans' complaints will not affect the players on the field, and He Xinghui still plays according to his own plan.
Focus on him, should I sneak attack and pass on another one.
This style of play is extremely efficient, which makes the Nuggets players very helpless.
They are serious about defending against other people. They are basically wasting expressions. The Clippers' offense is basically done by He Xinghui.
But if they relax a little bit, the Clippers will attack one of them again.
At the end of the first half, He Xinghui held the basketball outside the three-point line, making it difficult to tell whether he wanted to break through, shoot, hit the ball or pass the ball.
The Clippers players were not confused, Gasol suddenly started, threw off Najera, and ran to the basket.
Seeing this, He Xinghui lobbed the ball directly, ready to let Gasol catch it.
However, his pass was terrible and went straight to the hoop for the finish.
This made the fans and commentators laugh, because He Xinghui made an obvious passing action, but he made a wrong pass and threw the ball into the basket instead.
This kind of thing has happened to other players.
Don't think that the NBA is the highest-level basketball stage and there are no low-level mistakes. There are often some funny scenes in it.
"I'm really shooting the ball, it just looks more like a pass."
Facing the ridicule of his teammates, He Xinghui explained that he refused to admit that his pass was bad.
What's the matter, it's also a passing level.
The Clippers laughed happily, but the Nuggets players couldn't laugh.
Originally, they were only 6 points away, but He Xinghui scored a three-pointer, and the difference came to 9 points.
Facing an opponent stronger than our own, 9 points are too difficult to chase.
In the second half, the development of the game also verified their conjecture.
Although their offense has been smooth, the Clippers' firepower has never been broken, and the point difference has always hovered between 7-11.
In the last 6 minutes of the fourth quarter, Anthony began to strengthen his defense, and the entire Nuggets team also strengthened their defense under the roar of George Karl.
They are going to hit the Clippers by surprise to see if they can sneak attack.
They succeeded 20%.
They defended the Clippers for one round and scored a goal, narrowing the difference by 2 points.
However, He Xinghui was on guard against this move.
"Get serious and start playing for real. Give them hope for a few 10 minutes, and it's time to crush their illusions."
He Xinghui said to his teammates, the key point is that he didn't say it quietly, but let the Nuggets players hear it.
I have to say, this is very heartbreaking.
The former Nuggets players did have the illusion that they played well, but now He Xinghui told them that they played well because of themselves.
The Nuggets players retreated angrily, and they secretly vowed in their hearts that they would show their real skills and prove themselves.
Then, the fans could finally cry and shout: "This is the real playoffs. I watched a few 10-minute exhibition games before."
After both sides put up their strength, the scoring efficiency began to drop rapidly, especially for the Nuggets.
Anthony wanted to play He Xinghui in singles again, but found that he couldn't even hold the top, and he couldn't get rid of He Xinghui in running positions. He couldn't get the ball close to the basket at all.
It is also difficult to break through He Xinghui to get the ball from the outside.
Anthony hit two irons in a row, one was a hasty shot that failed to break through, and the other was a three-point shot.
Relatively speaking, the Clippers' offense is much better.
Even if the Nuggets players are serious about defense, there are still loopholes.
He Xinghui ran wildly, Anthony couldn't catch up, and the Nuggets had to switch defenses.
And He Xinghui has a very high success rate whether he is playing Nahula or Buckner.
Once the Nuggets double-teamed, He Xinghui began to distribute the ball again.
Gasol's successive hands at the basket, although Camby, the shot-blocking king, scored two more blocks in this game.However, the Nuggets also lost a lot of points on him.
Finally, the game is over.
116 to 128, the Nuggets lost by 12 points.
Before they strengthened their defense, the point difference was only 8 points. After strengthening their defense, they lost 4 points more, which made the Nuggets players feel suspicious of life.
Why do the more serious the defense, the more you lose?
The two teams have scored high points, and the data of the players is naturally beautiful.
For the Nuggets, Anthony scored 34 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, and made 26 of 13 shots, including 2 three-pointers and 6 free throws.
Andre Miller scored 22 points and 7 assists. This kind of beautiful data in the playoffs can help him get a big contract.
Therefore, even if he lost the game, he was not particularly depressed.
Even if Buckner was blown away, he contributed 12 points on the offensive end in this game, far exceeding his usual performance.
Najera scored 10 points and Camby had 14 points and 10 rebounds.
The first five tigers scored in double figures, and everyone was happy.
The Clippers are similar. He Xinghui made 28 of 18 shots, 15 of 10 three-pointers, 7 of 7 free throws, and scored 53 points.
His 53 points tied him with Isaiah Thomas for No. 10 in the playoff scoring list, which is also a small achievement.
Another even bigger achievement is that he broke the record for three-pointers made in a single game in the playoffs, previously held by Rex Chapman, 9.
He Xinghui is used to the 11 and 10 hits of the later generations of Klay Thompson and Lillard, so he doesn't have any special feeling about his 10 three-pointers.
However, in the mouth of the live broadcaster and commentator, I don't know how many times I exclaimed.
This is a record breaking, which means that in this category, He Xinghui is the strongest, even Jordan can't compare.
In addition to He Xinghui's eye-catching stats, the other Clippers' stats are not bad.
Gasol scored 20 points and 11 rebounds. The key is that he only took 13 shots, which is very efficient.
Not only is he efficient, but the efficiency of the rest of the Clippers is not low. After all, the Nuggets' defense is really not good.
Mobley scored 15 points, Cassel 12 points, and Kaman 11 points. The Clippers' starting five also scored in double figures.
When someone on the team scores 53 points, teammates can score in double figures, which is very rare.
Bobby, ESPN's commentator, publicly questioned the lack of gold content in this kind of data during the live broadcast.
In his words, this is simply not the intensity that a playoff game should have.
Unfortunately, that's all he has to say.But he forgot that even scoring 53 points in the regular season is still a great performance.
However, Bobby's argument has won the approval of Lake fans, Comey, Jamie, Wizards fans and other groups.
There is no way, He Xinghui's data is too explosive. If they recognize the gold content of this data, it is tantamount to agreeing with He Xinghui's transcendent status in the league.
After all, data like this is definitely another Michael Jordan.
A first-year rookie can match Jordan, which is a reality that many people cannot accept.
Especially He Xinghui's identity is more difficult to be recognized by certain groups of people.
