During the break, Zhang Lili introduced: "Yang Jian only needs 10 more points to tie the historical single-game scoring record of the NBA Finals. This record was set by Elgin Baylor in Game 5 of the 1962 Finals. He
Scored 61 points, the only 60-pointer in the history of the NBA Finals."
Sun Zhengping added: "Jordan and Rick Barry tied for second in scoring in a single game in the Finals. Jordan scored 55 points in Game 4 of the 1993 Finals. It shouldn't be difficult for Yang to surpass him."
The last time Jordan beat Barkley, he defeated the Flying Pigs. Now Barkley is about to witness a new history, but as Yang Jian's teammate, he is in a particularly happy mood.
Zhang Liji said: "While the Pacers kept double-teaming Yang Jian, he still scored 51 points. I think he will definitely score 60 today, and it is impossible for the opponent to guard him."
Sun Zhengping agreed. "He will definitely go all out for fast breaks in the last quarter, supersonic the ball, and the game has begun."
Yang Jian relied on Mason's screen from the left baseline to run up the line, and received Payton's pass from the outside at a 70-degree angle.
Schmitz did not play at this time. Dale Davis and Antonio Davis partnered in the inside, which is faster. However, when Yang Jian gets the ball from the outside, it is still difficult to defend the big man, and the inside will become empty.
.
Yang Jian took the ball from the center and entered the three-point line, and Reggie Miller and Jaylen Rose were ready to flank.
Yang Jian didn't pass the ball and brought it to the left corner of the penalty area. He dribbled the ball with his right hand and dragged the ball with his left hand to open up space. He shot the ball with his left hand and changed direction to the right.
He passed Jalen Rose with his speed, and Reggie Miller was blocked by Rose and could not catch up. The two stood too close and wanted to close the door in the middle. Yang Jian went to the right to create a gap.
Yang Jian took the ball and went to the basket. Antonio Davis, who was on the right baseline, let go of Mason to cover and blocked the shot. Dale Davis, who was under the basket, let go of Barkley and jumped to block the shot. Yang Jian accelerated.
He jumped up after a step, picked up the basket with his right hand and hit the board high. 94 to 75.
Zhang Lili shouted: "Good shot, Yang Jian rushed in for a layup and scored two more points, a pleasing offense."
Sun Zhengping said: "Yang Jian is too fast and dribbles very smoothly. His 53 points are only one goal away from Jordan's 55 points. Jordan's record has been broken many times by him in the past three years."
Zhang Liji said: "Yang Jian has now surpassed many famous players. It is difficult for players to score high points in the finals. Chamberlain only scored 45 points at the highest. There are only three people ahead of Yang Jian."
Reggie Miller ran away from Yang Jian, caught the ball from the left and shot a three-point jumper. With slight interference from Yang Jian, he hit .94 to 78.
Miller was very quiet after scoring a goal. He neither celebrated nor trash-talked Yang Jian, which was a bit unlike him. He was embarrassed to trash-talk Yang Jian, knowing that he would be slapped in the face.
There are many unwritten unwritten rules in the NBA, the most famous of which is "Don't provoke Jordan". Now this rule has become "Don't provoke Yang Jian", because he will turn on God of War mode at any time and score super high scores
Let the provocative people not come down.
During the SuperSonics offense, Yang Jian was flanked as soon as he got the ball and quickly distributed the ball. Schrempf on the right took the ball and broke through to the basket, attracting Antonio Davis to cover up the defense and then distributed the ball to Mason on the baseline.
Mason received the ball in an open position, jumped up with one step, and dunked the ball with one hand, scoring .96 to 78.
The home fans also gave Mason warm applause, and were no longer depressed about the team trading Kemp for him. Mason's offensive ability is not as good as Kemp, and his defense is much better than Kemp. Moreover, Mason does not steal the ball, and he takes fewer shots.
Yang Jian can make more shots and have a better chance of hitting super numbers.
When the Pacers attacked, Reggie Miller once again ran out of the three-point line without the ball and reached for the ball. Mark Jackson passed the ball. This time he passed the ball a little casually without observing it well, and it was a wide-range cross pass.
Yang Jian instantly bypassed Dale Davis, suddenly accelerated out of the three-point line, grabbed the pass before Miller, and took advantage of the situation to start a fast break.
He got rid of Miller in two steps, and the latter couldn't even pull someone for a foul. Yang Jian only took three seconds to break into the Pacers' penalty area from his own three-point line, calculated the distance and took off with both feet.
Windmill made a slam dunk! 98 to 78.
After scoring the goal, Yang Jian roared angrily, his score officially tied Jordan, and he remembered it.
Even if Jordan does not reach the finals this year, Yang Jian still has a way to make the media compare him with Jordan.
The Pacers players have developed a habit and subconsciously felt that Miller could run out of position. Yang Jian suddenly accelerated and completed his second steal. This was purely a "teasing you" feeling, and he would have more opportunities if he let go.
Reach out and gamble to steal without fear of being passed.
When the Pacers attacked, Mark Jackson couldn't get past Payton with the dribble, so he passed the ball to Miller.
Miller ran to catch the ball and saw that Yang Jian failed to catch up this time, so he made a three-point jumper from the left. At the same position, 70 degrees to the left, Miller's touch was very good and he hit another ball. 98 to 81.
During the SuperSonics offense, Payton passed the ball to Yang Jian who was two meters away from the three-point line on the left before halftime. Yang Jian did not wait for Miller to double-team, took the ball, took a small step forward, and shot a three-pointer.
point.
Jaylen Rose thought that Yang Jian would break through with the ball, so he didn't pounce very far outside. He didn't dare to get too close to Yang Jian, as he might get passed by a fake move, or he might be directly fouled by an arm swing. Rose has seen arm swings in this game.
This trick was a big loop, and Yang Jian was accidentally fouled.
Rose just stretched out his hand to interfere slightly and had no time to take off. Yang Jian was well prepared for the shot and the ball went in! 101 to 81.
Zhang Lili said: "It's 58 points. Yang Jian scored consecutively in the last quarter and easily surpassed Jordan."
Sun Zhengping said: "There is still a long time before the end of the game. With Yang Jian's touch today, it is not surprising to score 70 points. The Pacers' swingman cannot defend well, and Rose's ball was too far away from him."
Zhang Liji nodded: "It really shouldn't be the case. The whole league knows that Yang Jian has super long-range shooting ability. No matter what he says, he will score unreasonably."
Mark Jackson controlled the rhythm and settled into position. He was behind in the score but did not dare to rush for a fast break. It was extremely contradictory. After thinking about it, he passed the ball to Miller because Miller was the only one who was easy to play.
Yang Jian came out to pursue the defense, and he was serious at times and released at other times, which also disrupted Miller's rhythm. When Miller saw him coming up, he turned around and jumped up using his height advantage to pass to Dale Davis who was cutting to the basket.
Miller passed the ball too fast, Dale Davis' buttery hand failed to catch it and bounced up. Barkley easily picked up the steal in the middle and immediately passed it to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian led the half court from the right, dribbled the ball with his left hand one meter outside the three-point line, stepped back and shot a three-pointer. Miller quickly stepped forward and jumped without being able to block the ball, and the ball bounced out of the frame.
SuperSonics fans are very sorry, but for Yang Jian, this is an opportunity.
Zhang Lili said: "Larry Bird was shaking his head on the sidelines. No matter where Yang Jian shot, he looked like he was going to score. If the Pacers players don't immediately step forward to double-team, the people who support them will be frightened."
.”
Sun Zhengping said: "Many people say that Yang Jian changed the game of basketball, and it is true. His offensive distance is after halftime. In the past, players' one-step mid-range shots inside the three-point line were called super long two-pointers."
The Pacers attacked and the players passed the ball several times. Antonio Davis was forced by Mason to move inside the 60-degree three-point line on the right side and play with his back. If Yang Jian did not defend seriously, his teammates would not let go.
Antonio turned and passed the ball to Miller who ran to the right baseline. The latter caught the ball and half-turned back to make a mid-range shot. He avoided Yang Jian's block but the ball bounced out of the frame.
Dale Davis grabbed the offensive rebound, and the second attack caused Barkley to foul and go to the free throw line.
Dell missed two free throws and Barkley picked up the rebound.
Payton dribbled the ball into the frontcourt, and Yang Jian caught the ball outside the three-point line on the right side. This time he did not need to cover, and directly dribbled the ball through to force a breakthrough, attracting Jaylen Rose and Miller to double attack.
He dribbled the ball behind his back with his left and right hands continuously and walked to the right to reach the three-point line. He first hit Jaylen Rose with the ball, then stepped back from the three-point line and made a 60-degree fadeaway jumper from the right side.
The ball drew a beautiful arc and hit the net! 104 to 81.
Reggie Miller and Jaylen Rose signaled Yang Jian to walk, but the referee did not call a foul.
Larry Bird requested a timeout, and Yang Jian scored 61 points to tie the record.
