Chapter 67 60 points and 22 rebounds! The youngest man with 60 points, Wang Yan is popular on the Internet!
The Cavaliers players on the court were completely stunned and started laughing wildly.
However, Wang Yan didn't care about that and his offensive continued unabated.
After grabbing the rebound, he counterattacked with a one-arm slam dunk to get two more points.
It seemed that he had completely entered the mode of competing with Stephen Curry. Wang Yan's performance on the offensive end today was perfect.
In the last 4 minutes and 32 seconds of the final quarter, Wang Yan scored his 60th point of the game with a mid-range open jump shot!
It was this goal that widened the score to 20 points, and the Cavaliers launched a strong attack wave of 2 to 12 in the past 2 and a half minutes.
"In the end what happened?"
Looking at the situation on the field, the commentator on the scene was a little confused.
"The Cavaliers kept their high shooting percentage going all game long, while the Golden State Warriors suddenly lost power in the fourth quarter."
"That's right, the Golden State Warriors, who were in great form tonight, didn't continue their momentum at the crucial moment of the fourth quarter."
There aren’t many opponents who were able to play against the Cavaliers until the 4th quarter, as there aren’t many opponents who can handle the crucial moments.
But today, the Golden State Warriors relied on their strong outside shooting to maintain their lead and still have the possibility of winning the game.
But this possibility was still shattered by Wang Yan at the last moment.
"The reason for this is actually easy to understand. Most of the Golden State Warriors' offense comes from three-pointers from outside. They shot 40 three-pointers today."
"When they are in good form, they can naturally widen the gap quickly, but their biggest problem is whether they can continue their good form."
"On the other hand, the Cavaliers led by Wang Yan still have their offensive core mainly in the interior, and they can always maintain a relatively stable and efficient shooting rate."
It's not so much about winning or losing a game.
It would be better to say that this is actually a collision of completely different basketball philosophies.
Obviously, the inside offensive theory with Wang Yan as the core won in the end.
However, the Warriors will not give up their development strategy because of this defeat.
On the contrary, they were able to fight the Cavaliers until the last minute, which proved the success of their strategy.
"It is worth mentioning that Wang Yan broke the single-game scoring record in his career."
"He scored 60 points, which is the first 60+ in his career. He is also the youngest 60-point man in NBA history!"
“同时他还有22个篮板和6个盖帽, Nba历史上首位拿下60+20+5盖帽的球员!”
And as Wang Yan made this mid-range shot, the Warriors called a timeout.
"MVP!!"
"MVP!!"
"MVP!!"
Amidst the cheers of MVP from the audience, Wang Yan raised his arms and walked off the court.
"There is no doubt that Wang Yan has broken many records in this battle."
"For example, the single-game scoring record for a rookie season was once again broken by Wang Yan."
"The youngest man to score 60 points, and the man who scored 60 points in the fewest games!"
"He is also the second player after Shaquille O'Neal to score 2+ points in a single game without three-pointers!"
"..."
At the end of the game, the score was fixed at 128 to 115. The Cavaliers defeated the Golden State Warriors by 13 points at home and won their 18th consecutive victory.
"I didn't expect that the battle that everyone expected would happen between the Warriors and the Cavaliers."
128 to 115 is a very high score, and it is not an exaggeration to call it a scoring battle.
Many fans and experts previously believed that the Cavaliers and the Thunder might have a big battle.
Or the Cavaliers and New York Knicks.
But those highly anticipated battles did not take place, and the Cavaliers used their defense to suppress the opponent's offense.
Instead, the Golden State Warriors, who lost Monta Ellis, actually had a fierce offensive battle with the Cavaliers.
除了王阎的单场60+22+6之外,身旁的凯里·欧文表现也是不慌多让,轰下了18分并送出了22个助攻。这22个助攻不仅刷新了他的单场助攻记录,同时直接让他的场均助攻数多了一个。
Irving now averages 9.8 assists per game, second only to Rajon Rondo and Steve Nash.
Just as Byron Scott expected, Irving does have the hope of winning the assist title in his rookie season.
Of course, 80% of the credit for Irving's many assists comes from Wang Yan.
According to statistics, 80% of Irving's assists tonight were passed to Wang Yan.
For the Warriors, Stephen Curry scored 30 points and made 14 of 8 three-pointers.
Klay Thompson scored 26 points and made 8 of 6 three-pointers.
. . .
"The Warriors used their offense to force me to score 60 points in a single game."
After the game, Wang Yan became the protagonist of the interview as usual.
"The team needs me to score 60 points to win, and I will score 60 points. That's why I can score 60+."
Wang Yan's performance of scoring 60+ points in a single game became a hot topic that reporters rushed to ask questions about.
"In that case, Wang, when the team needs your 70 points to win, will you score 70+? If it's 80..."
"Yes!"
Wang Yan answered quite straightforwardly: "I scored 60 points tonight, just because the team needed to score 60 points."
"When the team needs me to score 70 points, I'm going to score 70 points."
"When the team needs me to score 80 points, I'm going to score 80 points."
"If there are more, it's not impossible."
The reporters nearby swallowed their saliva when they heard this.
The taste of forcing the king is about to come out.
There is only one player in the entire NBA who can score 70 or 80 points in a single game.
Hot guy from Los Angeles.
The second-highest single-game scoring record in the NBA is held by Kobe Bryant.
And worth mentioning.
In the Christmas game in December, the Cavaliers and the Lakers had a showdown.
That game was obviously much more exciting than tonight's battle between the Cavaliers and the Warriors.
"Wang, Stephen's performance tonight was also very good. He was hot from beyond the three-point line, but he also performed a sliding dunk into your crotch. What do you think of that round?"
puff!
When asked this question by reporters, even Wang Yan, who is known for his stable emotions, couldn't help laughing out loud.
"He's just eager to prove himself."
Curry really wanted to prove himself a little too much tonight.
This led to the famous scene of sliding into the crotch.
After the game.
The famous scene of Curry sliding through the crotch and not touching the ball naturally became a hot topic.
"Sports Pictorial" even used this shot as the cover of its latest issue.
It is foreseeable that in the next few decades, this picture will become the Goat in the emoticon world.
In addition to this shot that went viral.
Wang Yan's violent performance of 60 points and 22 rebounds.
It also completely set the Internet on fire after the game!
