Because Yang Jian wanted to grab a backcourt rebound, Mark Jackson "showed off his power" in the third quarter and scored 10 points in a single quarter, including two three-pointers.
When Yang Jian defended against breakthroughs but not shots, and retreated to the penalty area, Jackson scored 10 points and was not considered a good scorer. If the opponent defended Yang Jian like this, he could score 30 in a single quarter.
Yang Jian can get rebounds by focusing on rebounding, not just backcourt rebounds, but also offensive rebounds.
After attracting double-teams from the outside to score the ball, he immediately cut through to grab the offensive rebound. At 4 minutes and 15 seconds, he grabbed an offensive rebound and directly dunked with both hands to score, and his personal score reached 50 points.
He also broke through a double-team with a layup on the right side and scored, passing Reggie Miller and Jaylen Rose. The Pacers players have been tightly double-teaming Yang Jian, and he still has a way to score. If he has many opportunities to play alone, today
It's not 50 but 60.
In order to maintain a 100% shooting percentage, Yang Jian only took two shots in the last 7 minutes of the quarter. He would not take a shot if he was unsure. He played 36 minutes and made 19 of 19 shots, 5 of 5 three-pointers, and 9 of 9 free throws.
Scored 52 points, 16 rebounds, 16 assists and 2 steals.
His teammates missed several simple shots in this quarter, otherwise Yang Jian would not have only 5 assists in the quarter.
The SuperSonics led 110 to 60 by 50 points in the third quarter, and Yang Jian would not play again in the final quarter. It can be said that he played the entire third quarter to ensure the ratings of the finals, and continuing to play was purely to increase the data.
The ratings of this year's finals have indeed improved a lot compared to last year. They started to skyrocket in the second quarter. Many people temporarily changed the channel to watch Yang Jian's super statistics.
Zhang Lili sighed: "Today Yang Jian's shooting percentage was 100%, and he made all the shots. This is probably the most terrifying performance in the history of the NBA. If he continues to play in the final quarter, he is likely to have a magical data of 602020."
Sun Zhengping said: "His current statistics are unprecedented. He has already played three triple-doubles in the finals. The only person ahead of him is Magic Johnson who has 8 triple-doubles. Apart from the two of them, no one can achieve the same in the finals."
I had more than two triple-doubles in the finals.”
Zhang Lili said: "Just based on the first game, Yang Jian's fourth FMVP in his career is stable. Magic Johnson and Jordan both only have three FMVPs. As long as Yang Jian wins the championship, he will surpass them."
Yang Jian's goal is to surpass Jordan this season, which will make him feel that he is already the number one player in NBA history.
After high-fiving his teammates in celebration, he began to sit quietly on the sidelines as a spectator. At this time, he missed Eric Snow a little. Now Snow has gone to the Raptors to be the "Towel Man". The team now lacks such a person.
People who liven up the atmosphere are not passionate enough.
Reggie Miller was sitting on the sidelines with an extremely ugly face, not knowing whether he should rest.
After playing three quarters, he made 0 of 13 shots, 0 of 3 three-pointers, 4 of 4 free throws, 4 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists, and no points in sports games.
When a team's star player produces such data, it can no longer be described as "completely explosive". Miller, who is abused by Yang Jian, also wants to retire and does not see any hope in the future.
He is 35 years old this year. He cannot beat Yang Jian this time. The gap between the two will become wider and wider in the future. He is destined to never win a championship in this life.
In the final quarter, the Sonics deployed a full bench lineup, with Anthony Carter, Stephen Jackson, and Mark Blount getting a chance to practice. The other two were veterans Dell Curry and Terry Mills.
The Pacers still fielded two main players, Reggie Miller and Rick Schmitz, with three substitutes.
Backup point guard Best finally got his start, and Crohill and Schmitz scored consecutively. What's embarrassing is that Reggie Miller still struggled to score under Stephen Jackson's defense.
Jackson is a jack-of-all-trades player, playing well at the 2, 3, and 4 positions, and has good individual defense capabilities.
Reggie Miller made 1 of 3 shots in 5 minutes, plus a technical foul free throw and scored another 3 points before taking a break. His data finally settled at 7 points, 2 rebounds, 4 assists and 1 steal.
He made 1 of 16 shots, with a shooting percentage of 6.3%, which is actually a bit funny for a star. Yang Jian heard the system prompt when Reggie Miller came off the court. The system determined that he had witnessed history and received 1 attribute point.
In a parallel world, Reggie Miller also made 1 of 16 shots in the first game against the Lakers. And the person who was guarding him was not Kobe, but veteran Ron Harper. Kobe was responsible for guarding point guard Mark Jackson.
Today is obviously not Reggie Miller's lucky day. His condition is extremely sluggish. Under normal conditions, he can score more than 10 points with so many blind shots.
In the end, the SuperSonics won 130 to 86, a 44-point victory.
A total of 5 players from the Sonics scored in double figures. Lewis made 8 of 15 shots, 4 of 8 three-pointers, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 22 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.
Payton made 5 of 10 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws. He scored 16 points, 4 rebounds, 10 assists, and 3 steals.
Only four Pacers scored in double figures. Mark Jackson made 6 of 8 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, and 4 of 4 free throws. His 18 points, 5 rebounds, and 7 assists were the highest on the team.
If Yang Jian seriously defended Jackson and did not pursue more rebounds, Jackson would not have scored so many points.
Jaylen Rose made 5 of 12 shots, 2 of 4 three-pointers, and scored 12 points, 2 rebounds, and 2 assists. His weaknesses are undoubtedly obvious. He mainly relies on shooting and has poor breakthrough ability. His current level is at most an ordinary All-Star.
He is far from a superstar.
Schmitz made 5 of 12 shots, 2 of 2 free throws, 12 points, 5 rebounds and 2 blocks, as well as 4 turnovers and 5 fouls. Eight of his points came in garbage time in the final quarter, and he only played a total of 20 minutes.
Dale Davis proved that he is a parallel import among the All-Stars, scoring only 9 points and 8 rebounds. When the team needs someone to stand up and score, Davis can only play soy sauce. In terms of tactical role, he is obviously not as good as the Sonics.
Sophomores Lewis and Brad Miller.
Although the Pacers avoided the 50-point defeat in the Finals, the 44-point deficit was still the largest point difference in the history of the Finals and will go down in history.
The unlucky Pacers faced the SuperSonics twice in the Finals, becoming the backdrop for three historical records.
After the game, the Pacers players rushed back to the locker room. They were both walking and racing, not wanting to shake hands with their opponents and pay tribute.
The Pacers were beaten in 1998, and this time the loss was even worse. The hatred between the two teams deepened. The SuperSonics have another team that will never make a deal.
The core players and coaches of the Pacers first attended the press conference.
Coach Larry Bird lamented: "I don't think the Pacers are a bad team. Breaking through in the Eastern Conference proves this. I think if we play against other strong teams in the Western Conference, we will be able to compete, but we only have a little chance against the SuperSonics."
None, Yang Jian's personal abilities are too abnormal."
The reporter asked: "Who do you think is stronger between Yang Jian and you, Magic, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Chamberlain?"
"In terms of overall ability, I think Yang is better. He is a type that has never appeared in history and is the strongest defender. He is too fast and has unlimited physical strength, and no one has ever shot as accurately as him.
The field entered his shooting range."
Larry Bird is completely convinced and feels that he will definitely be beaten against Yang Jian in his peak period. Yang Jian cannot hold the ball against him more than Reggie Miller and Jaylen Rose, and his physical fitness is not as good as Rose.
The reporter asked: "How do you think we can defeat Yang Jian?"
"I think we should expect him to retire soon and make movies. Unless the team's lineup is much better than the Sonics, it will be too difficult to beat him. He only needs teammates who can catch and shoot to open up the space, and he can lead his teammates to play wonderful games.
Offense. And the SuperSonics' defense is also very strong. Don't forget that three of their players have been selected to the All-Defensive Team."
For the first time in history, people saw the power of a "one-star, four-star" team.
The SuperSonics' team building idea is to choose people who can shoot and play fast breaks to partner with Yang Jian. There is no other team in the league with so many shooters. The SuperSonics are not only strong because of Yang Jian's personal ability.
reason.
Larry Bird feels it is not shameful to admit that he cannot beat the Sonics. Returning to the home court, the Pacers will not be able to reverse their disadvantage...
