Chapter 47: Match against ‘AK47’? Tied for eighth place in history!
"Hey, Kenny, if I remember correctly, the record in the first game is Chamberlain's 43 points. Do you really think that Chinese kid can break it?" Barkley asked with a look of leisure.
Kenny Smith was also a little dumbfounded. He really couldn't blow it anymore. He rolled his eyes and said,
"How do you know this record? Did you try to break it back then?"
As expected, Barkley was led astray and boasted: "Huh, we had Moses (Malone), Julius (Irving), and Morris (Cheeks) on the team at that time, and I didn't have that much ball rights.
If I have enough possession of the ball, I may not be able to break it."
On the court, the game continues.
Then the facts proved that Barkley was right. Under the targeted defense of the Jazz, it became much more difficult for Su Bai to score. When he came off the court after playing more than four minutes in the second quarter, his personal score was fixed at 19 points.
Then, he sat there until halftime.
19 points at halftime!
This is considered good for a rookie, but also for a star player!
Moreover, because Su Bai attracted the defense, the rest of the Warriors played efficiently, once chasing the point difference to 2 points.
If the Jazz hadn't regained dominance in the paint after returning from the starting lineup, the Warriors might have completed the lead.
It is worth mentioning that when the Warriors fell further and further behind, many Warriors fans shouted "Let Sue play!" "Let Sue play!".
Warriors fans may not be as knowledgeable about techniques, tactics and court situations as Nelson's professional coaching staff, but they still see clearly the changes Su Bai has brought to the Warriors.
That Chinese guy, even if he can't score, can still help attract defensive firepower!
In the TNT commentary box, Kenny Smith looked at the information he received from the staff and said: "Although it is impossible for Su to break Chamberlain's record, it is not impossible to rank second."
"John Drew, who scored the second highest score in his debut, scored 32 points."
Buckley, who felt like he was finally on edge, shook his head and said.
"That Chinese rookie is no good. From what I know about Jerry Sloan, he won't let a rookie continue to act like this.
At present, the Chinese rookie has scored a game-high 19 points, 11 points more than Ellis, the second-highest scorer on the Warriors. If Jerry Sloan doesn't target him, there will be trouble."
"Even if he was targeted, Su could still score 13 or 14 points, right?
We’ll see!”
Kenny Smith feels that Su Bai, who finished second in scoring in his first game, can still struggle.
At the same time, Chu Wenxing finally had time to post on Tieba and the Chinese Basketball Forum to introduce the situation of Su Bai's game.
This makes many fans excited but also regretful.
Because CCTV will broadcast the Mahu Battle tonight and Sina will broadcast Yi Jianlian's debut tomorrow, they can only look at Chu Wenxing's posts and then make assumptions about Su Bai's performance.
However, Chu Wenxing's description alone was enough to make their blood boil.
19 points at halftime, dunks, dunks, 2+1!
This damn thing looks much better than Yao Ming’s debut back then!
Originally, they were still worried that Su Bai was acclimated and wondered whether he would be able to grow up by the time of the Imperial Capital Olympics next summer.
When you look at the results, you can see how much you have grown up, and you are now ready to fight!
As for next summer, as long as I don’t get hurt, I’ll have super thighs!
While the outside world was being disturbed, in the home team's locker room, Nelson announced Su Bai's decision to start the second half.
Everyone else on the Warriors showed excitement, even Ellis.
After all, although Su Bai gave him some ball rights when he came on the court, it did help him attract the defensive attention.
For example, when Brewer went to guard Su Bai later, Ellis took the opportunity to score several goals. Before, Ellis made 1 of 3 shots under Brewer's defense.
It can be said that Su Bai not only has strong personal offensive ability, but also completely activated the Warriors' offensive system and made up for the shortest shortcoming of the Warriors' offensive bucket.
Soon the half-time break ended and the two sides changed sides to fight again.
The Jazz's side is the starting lineup, and the Warriors' side has Su Bai taking Azubuike's place.
The Warriors attack first.
Barkley in the TNT commentary box looked proud, but Kenny Smith looked helpless.
Because Su Bai’s defender became Kirilenko, nicknamed ‘AK47’, one of the most powerful wing defenders in the league!
For example, last season, Kirilenko was selected to the All-Defensive First Team.
Then, in the previous season, Kirilenko became the first forward in NBA history to lead blocks in blocks with an average of 3.3 blocks per game!
Therefore, even Kenny Smith felt that Su Bai would never be able to please Kirilenko.
Sure enough, Su Bai failed to score for a long time on the court, and Kirilenko even had time to help defend the interior and send two Russian blocks while defending Su Bai alone.
The Jazz also opened the point difference to 10 points again.
At this time, Old Nelson called a timeout with an ugly face.
He can tolerate being unable to guard him on the defensive end, but he really cannot tolerate being defeated on the offensive end.
After the timeout, Nelson no longer bothered to criticize others and directly asked the players to gather around to listen to the tactics.
After the timeout ends, the game continues.
Baron Davis directly found Stephen Jackson for a pick-and-roll, then easily broke through to the basket, then pretended to attack the frame to attract Kirilenko's help and then returned the ball to Stephen Jackson.
Kirilenko helped defend against the pervert, and soon assisted in defending Stephen Jackson again.
Unexpectedly, Stephen Jackson didn't take a shot either. Instead, he passed the ball to Su Bai who had slipped into the corner at some point. The latter caught the ball and took action without hesitation.
Kick off the ground, stay in the air, straighten your arms, shake your wrists!
"Whoosh!"
The basketball hits the net!
70 to 62, Su Bai’s personal score came to 21 points!
The fans at the scene cheered loudly, not only for Su Bai, but also for every Warriors player who played this smooth offense.
The Jazz attacked, Okur hit a low single on the right side, and Kirilenko on the weak side suddenly cut through and scored with a dunk.
72 to 62.
On the sidelines, Nelson's expression didn't change much.
This old man really only cares about offense and doesn't care about defense.
But this is Nelson's basketball philosophy: any method that does not aim to put the ball into the basket is a hooligan.
When the Warriors attack again, it's still the pick-and-roll of Baron Davis and Stephen Jackson.
Deron Williams and Boozer still couldn't guard them.
After all, these two are no better than Stockton and Malone back then. Others are just okay, but their defense is really far behind.
Kirilenko had no choice but to continue to help them "wipe their butts" and help defend Baron Davis.
Baron Davis still didn't attack hard, and this time he didn't even use Stephen Jackson to overdo it, and directly passed the ball to Su Bai who was cutting through.
Kirilenko, a help-defense pervert, once again quickly rushed over with help.
Unexpectedly, Su Bai was not afraid at all, and made a very difficult pull-bar to reverse the basket!
72 to 64, Su Bai’s personal score came to 23 points!
The cheers of the fans at the scene suddenly exploded.
Is it time for this Chinese boy to break out again?
The Jazz attacked, and this time Boozer took a shot from mid-range.
The Warriors' aggressive and fast counterattack returns.
Baron Davis looks for Su Bai again.
On the side, Monta Ellis, who kept asking for the ball, almost became anxious.
‘The head coach asked you to pass the ball to him more, but you didn’t pass the ball to him all the time. I didn’t see that Kirilenko didn’t help defend this time!
Or is he your wife?’
After receiving the ball, Su Bai faced Kirilenko, the main perimeter defender, and turned his back to him, turning over and shooting a fadeaway jumper!
After completing the move, Su Bai felt extremely happy: This is the feeling of freedom!
"Whoosh!"
Beautiful and picturesque, look back, middle!
72 to 66, Su Bai’s personal score reached 25 points!
In the stands, Chu Wenxing raised one arm angrily.
With 25 points in his first game, Su Bai has already tied James, Grant Hill and Elgin Baylor for eighth place in history!
However, Chu Wenxing knew that the show was getting better and better, and it was far from reaching the climax, because there was still more than one quarter before the end of the game!
…
Chapter completed!
