Chapter 799 Jordan Will Come Back for the Third Time
"Holyshit! What the hell can I say! 64 points! A new playoff single-game scoring record! God! The new god of basketball!"
O'Neill as Tang Chui was already climaxing on the spot.
Barkley lay on the commentary table, making surrender gestures with his hands and laughing.
"What do you think Michael would look like if he knew his record was broken? Shocked? Accident?"
O'Neill continued.
"He would say congratulations to Don, he had the grace to do that."
Smith said seriously.
"Yes, he will."
Buckley straightened up and said seriously.
"But he's still going to be upset, trust me."
O'Neal raised his eyebrows and looked at Barkley and Smith.
The three of them were silent for a while, and then they all laughed in unison.
Thousands of miles away in Las Vegas, Jordan was squandering money in a casino when he sneezed violently and immediately lost $200,000.
This damn casino, the air conditioner is running low.
The game continued on the court, and Curry's three-pointer hit the frame.
Jokic grabbed a defensive rebound and the Pelicans counterattacked defensively.
The Warriors' retreat was obviously slow, and Holiday received a long pass from Jokic from the backcourt and succeeded in a layup.
Thompson ran in the frontcourt to catch the ball and shot a three-pointer, and he made a three-pointer without touching it.
There was a burst of cheers at the scene.
Just like a psychological game, when Tang Tian broke the record, the mentality of the Warriors members obviously fluctuated.
Tang Tian scored suddenly, and Holiday hit another open three-pointer from the outside.
After a 9-0 offensive, the score difference on the field suddenly returned to 21 points.
With five minutes left in the game, the Warriors basically had no hope of a comeback.
Cole reached out and called a timeout.
After the timeout, the Warriors still missed two consecutive three-pointers.
When Tang Tian hit another pull-up shot against Thompson, Cole called a timeout again.
There are already five Warriors substitutes waiting by the technical table. This is a timeout of early surrender.
All the fans at the scene stood up and cheered and applauded, and many people whistled directly.
The series has just begun, and it is too early to talk about the success of revenge.
But at least a big win in the opening game has allowed most of the revenge fire in their hearts to be vented, which is a great feeling!
Moreover, Tang Tian also broke the single-game scoring record in the playoffs!
Tang Tian's game data was displayed on the large LED screen at the scene.
24 of 42 shots, 5 of 12 three-pointers, 13 of 14 free throws, 66 points, 5 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 1 block, and 3 turnovers!
Next to the data, there is a new record logo!
While typing out the data, the on-site photographer also focused his lens on Tang Tian as he walked off the field.
Cheers and whistles came one after another, which even made them more excited than victory!
Tang Tian also smiled and extended his hand to greet the audience.
For players, fans are always the biggest motivation for them to play.
The substitutes of both teams played the last two minutes, and the score on the field was finally fixed at 128 to 106.
The Pelicans got off to a good start by defeating their opponents in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.
In addition to Tang Tian's 66 points, Davis and Holiday also scored 16 points each. Jokic contributed a triple-double of 12 points, 11 rebounds and 14 assists, and McGee scored 7 points.
For the Warriors, Curry scored 46 points, Thompson scored 23 points, and Barbosa scored 12 points.
After the game, the pages of major media outlets were filled with the words Tang Tianhe 66 points.
"Tang Tian scored 66 points in a single game and broke the single-game scoring record in the playoffs. He is the mvp!"
Espn;
"Jordan was surpassed tonight, with a new record of 66 points. He is the new god of basketball!"
Sina Sports;
"If one man scores 66 points in a single game in the playoffs, even Michael Jordan will respect him as a god. This man will rule the NBA from now on!"
Tencent portal;
…
Not only the media, but also fans' discussions on social media exploded.
"According to Woj reports, Jordan will usher in the third comeback of his career, with only one goal, to reach the playoffs and score 67 points!"
“According to Woj’s follow-up report, Jordan will participate in China’s CBA League after his comeback (￣┰￣*)”
"Haha, you guys are real, but Jordan's record that was once considered unattainable has finally been broken. Tang has become great!"
"74 wins, MVP, record high score in a single game in the playoffs, Tang Zhen is catching up with Jordan step by step!"
"As new fans, Jordan only exists in low-quality videos for us, but Don is alive in front of our eyes!"
"There is no doubt that Don is now the most dominant player after Jordan. What he needs to do now is to start his own consecutive championship journey like Jordan. Let us wait and see!"
…
At the Excalibur Hotel in Las Vegas, Jordan woke up from the luxurious bed in the suite, next to the girl he brought back last night.
He rubbed his groggy head, woke up the girl next to him, and invited her out without giving her a tip.
He lost more than five million US dollars in a huge gamble last night.
Although the money is just a drop in the bucket to him, losing money always makes people feel bad.
He took out the sports newspaper that had just been delivered in the morning, which was a habit he developed every day.
As he watched, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and then he dropped the newspaper hard to the ground.
As the god of basketball, although he is a bit stingy with others, he is actually very broad-minded.
He will carefully guide the players on his team, and he will also send blessings whenever someone in the league breaks his record.
Even if Tang Tian broke his single-game scoring record in the playoffs, he was still happy for Tang Tian.
After all, basketball is not a mass sport. It needs stars to continue to appear in order to continue to expand its influence.
Just like him, just like Carter, just like Kobe and James, and just like Tang Tian now.
But the media's practice of praising one person and undermining another made him very unhappy. He, Jordan, is the god of basketball and has been the protagonist since he became famous.
Now the media and fans regard him as a foil, a stepping stone or even make fun of him. This feeling is so uncomfortable.
He controlled his temper and took out his mobile phone to check the news, but all that flashed before his eyes were the words Tang Tian, 66 points and surpassing Jordan.
Basketball players, no matter what profession they are in, will be exposed to the same information today.
He took a deep breath, then turned off his phone and looked out the window.
It was rainy outside the window, just like his mood at the moment.
His eyes were sharp. He now wanted to see how far Tang Tian could achieve since the two younger generations, Kobe and James, couldn't even come close to him.
At this time, thousands of miles away in Cleveland, there was also a man looking up out of the window.
James got up early for extra practice before last night's training, and is now sitting by the window to rest.
Gilbert said that he would meet all his requirements, including setting up public WIFI in the training hall so that he could surf the Internet with confidence.
He also saw the media and fans hyping up Tang Tian, and he could still see this information even if he turned off social media.
But what burned in his eyes was fighting spirit.
His image has plummeted since the media revealed his involvement in the Heat draft.
Now he hopes that Tang Tian can lead the Pelicans to the finals. In that case, he can prove himself once again.
Even if his original choice was wrong, it doesn't matter, because he was the one who won the championship in the end, and he was the one who surpassed Jordan and became the first person in history.
ps: Now there are double monthly tickets, one ticket counts as two tickets, some commanders remember to vote.
