Chapter 204 so tired
On March 21, the Knicks, who had a poor record recently, lost at home again, but Wu Huang's crazy performance attracted all parties' sighs. All media were looking through the historical information in the old paper after the game to find out how legendary the data Wu Huang created was.
But no matter what the answer is, it is certain that no word of praise can describe Wu Huang's performance that shocked the world today. The last time he performed like this on this court was the No. 24 core from the West Coast. Kobe scored 61 points in the game against the Knicks in February 2009, when he conquered the basketball holy land. Wu Huang regained the dignity of Madison Garden through his performance tonight, and New York fans' support for him has never been reserved.
After the whistle sounded, the host on the scene reminded all viewers to keep the tickets. "I bet that although less than 20,000 people were lucky enough to witness this grand performance, in the near future, 200,000 people would claim that 'On the night of March 21, 2010, I watched a game destined to be recorded in history' in Madison Square Garden'."
After the game, countless shots in the stadium recorded the scene of New York fans worshiping Wu Huang. They were worshiping the heroes of their team. Big Apple City belongs to Wu Huang tonight. If he dares to walk to the street openly, his clothes will definitely be torn into hundreds of copies by the crazy New York female fans. It is very likely that a female gangster will rob you of a sex scene.
Former Rockets star McGrady said on Twitter that he participated in this incredible game, "In the fourth quarter, I sat here to watch the 'New York Emperor' show why he is the best rookie this year." Previously, McGrady's highest single-game score in his career was 62 points. Wu Huang surpassed him by 1 point in this game.
David Li also said after the game that he saw a desire for scoring and victory in Emperor Wu's eyes. He described: "It was a tiger-like look, a lion-like look."
Charles Barkley tweeted that night: Hugo gives me the feeling that it's easy for this kid to get 60+. Yes, since I saw his amazing performance in the three-point competition, I knew that this day wouldn't come too late, but his speed of getting 60+ was beyond my expectations. Kenny and I thought he would do it in his third season or fourth season, but he was two or three years faster than we expected. What a magical Asian boy.
Kidd became a negative example of Wu Huang after the game. "Kid-not attacking" played for 36 minutes today, scoring 9 points, 12 rebounds and 14 assists. Another embarrassing "Kid-like" quasi-triple double. After the game, the old monster transferred a photo of Wu Huang on his Twitter, and then attached a sentence at the end: You talk first, I have something to do.
Not to mention how the NBA stars were amazed at Wu Huang's 63 points, after this game, Wu Huang officially joined the 60+ club exclusive to superstars such as Jordan and Kobe. He became the 21st player in NBA history to get 60+. He is also the only player in NBA history to get 60+ in his rookie season.
Previously, the youngest 60+ gentleman in the NBA was Lakers' legend Jerry West. On January 17, 1962, the Lakers vs. Knicks. Jerry West, who was only 7 months old and scored 63 points. Wu Huang has now reduced this record by three and a half years. This is definitely an unprecedented performance and no future generations.
After the game, Wu Huang said: "Tonight I made history and joined a small number of people. Only this small number of people know what this feels like, and I felt it tonight." Wu Huang's 63 points was the highest single-game score in his career and the highest single-game score in NBA this season.
Of course, he did not forget to thank his teammates, "I just played one round after another, and my teammates were very active in passing the ball to me, and I must thank them." With this score, Wu Huang became the tenth player to score 60 points in a single game since 1990. The previous nine players were Carl Malone, Tom Chambers, Michael Jordan, David Robinson, Shaquille O'Neal, McGrady, Allen Iverson, Kobe Bryant and Arenas.
New York Times reported the second day
The Knicks, who played at home, eventually lost to the Rockets 114:121, but in the Madison Garden Arena, the most shining thing was the Knicks star Hugo, who made 10 three-pointers in the game, scoring the only 60+ score in the NBA regular season this season. Before that, Kobe (61 points) and Jordan (55 points) were the highest scores in this stadium, and now the first place belongs to Wu Huang.
New York fans can better understand the valuableness of it than others. No matter how bad the Knicks' record has been in recent years, this stadium is still a basketball holy place that countless NBA stars and fans long for, because there are too many great history and too many classic battles here, because this is New York.
Whether it is Jordan, Kobe, or LeBron James, who has been fantasizing about New York fans before, these superstars will be full of fighting spirit and energy as long as they step onto the Madison Square Garden Stadium.
The New York Times gave several examples. On June 2, 1993, the Chicago Bulls and the New York Knicks had the fifth match in the Eastern Conference Finals. The two sides had a 2:2 match. At that time, Jordan's gambling scandal was being exaggerated by the media. Fans of Madison Square Garden began to boo him since Jordan entered the court. But the result was that the God of Basketball helped the Bulls win with a terrifying triple-double score of 29 points, 14 assists and 10 rebounds. Especially from the end of the third quarter of the game, Jordan scored 17 points unstoppable in a row, and finally helped the Bulls defeat the Knicks.
On December 17, 2006, the Knicks played against the Nuggets. This should have been a dull game, but it eventually became a "bloody caused by a fist" and also became the most shameful moment in the history of Madison Garden Stadium. At that time, the Knicks used some savage and rough methods to "take care of" Anthony and the Nuggets from the beginning. Anthony, who was annoyed, used a heavy punch to fight back. As a result, the court was in chaos, and the two sides were eventually sent out 10 people, which became a shame for the NBA and Garden Stadium.
The greater shame is still behind. On February 2, 2009, Madison Square Garden ushered in a shameful solo show. In the Lakers and the Knicks, Kobe Bryant entered the invincible scoring mode, making 19 of 31 shots, scoring a terrifying 61 points, surpassing Jordan's 55 points and Bernard King's 60 points, becoming the scoring champion of New York's basketball holy land.
Kobe's 61 points allowed him to surpass Bernard King and became the number one person in Madison Garden at that time. Although New York fans at that time applauded Kobe like a cheerful applause to express their dissatisfaction with the management and the players, the shame of the conquering of the arena remained in the hearts of New York fans.
However, from tonight, New York fans no longer need to be worried about the scene last year. Hugo is like a Superman in a red cloak. He untied the Knicks from the pillar of shame at a speed that no one expected. This exciting solo show will surely push him to a record high. The performances of various princes on the big stage this season are destined to not be lonely, and the MVP battle will not be just a three-party confrontation between James, Wade and Kobe. This game may kick off the prelude to Hugo entering the real big stage.
For a time, mainstream media were praising Wu Huang's performance, but there would not be only one voice in this world. After the madness of Wu Huang, the outside world also had a "sarcastic voice" of his 63 points.
The Lakers fans' official website commented immediately: It's still 18 points away! Previously, Kobe scored a career-high 81 points against the Raptors. The Lakers fans' official website intends to mock the fact that there is still a big gap between Wu Huang and Kobe.
Rick Barry, who has always discriminated against Chinese, tweeted: Emperor Wu has 63 points! The Emperor of New York is very powerful! However, his opponent is the Rockets, and he is facing the shortest backcourt combination in the league, so he can only count 49 points.
Yahoo Sports' report is openly praised and undermined
Hugo's performance is incredible. Experts have always believed that it is difficult for Hugo to get 60+ because it takes three conditions to get a high score...
First, you need an opponent who can score with you.
Second, you need four teammates who can't score.
Third, this is determined based on his basketball style.
Hugo may be one of the most talented shooters in league history, so his strongest offensive method is three-pointers. Therefore, as long as he scores high, it means that his three-pointers are accurate in that game, which means that the score will be quickly pulled open. The game is likely to enter garbage time in the first half or the first three quarters, and will not give him enough scoring time.
However, today the tenacious Rockets helped Hugo, and everyone did not expect the possibility of losing and getting high scores. You should know that generally, players who get 60+ will win in that game.
In order to belittle Wu Huang's 63 points, Yahoo Sports deliberately circled a big circle. They first reported that in this league, not every great player can score 60+, even if he is a scoring expert, such as the great "Tian Gou" Kareem, he scored at most 55 points in a single game in his career.
"Flying Man" Michael Jordan has scored 60+ in his regular season career, with the highest record being on March 28, 1990. Jordan scored 69 points, 18 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 1 block against the Cleveland Cavaliers. In addition, Jordan scored 61 points on March 4, 1987, 61 points on April 16, 1987, and 64 points on January 16, 1993.
As Jordan's successor, "Peter Pan" Kobe also scored 60+ performances in his career, in addition to the incredible 81 points, he also had 4 60+ performances. In fact, he got more than Jordan's 60+ times in the regular season.
In addition, there are not many scoring experts who can compete with these two. Elgin Baylor scored 71 points in a single game against the Knicks on November 15, 1960, which was the NBA's single game record at that time, but Baylor scored 60+ games in only 3 games.
Now, the career of the league's No. 1 superstar LeBron James has not yet been 60+. In contrast, David Thompson once maliciously scored points on April 9, 1978, scoring 73 points in a single game, but in this game, his second highest score was only 50 points. Similarly, David Robinson, who scored 71 points in a single game on April 24, 1994 (in order to compete with O'Neal for the scoring champion), but the second highest score was only 52 points.
Such reports are thoughtful and clearly point out that Wu Huang's 63 points are nothing. Or you can score 60+ multiple times. Just like Jordan and Kobe, that is considered to be capable. But you also need to know that many great players don't bother to score points at all, but they may be greater than those who get 70 or 80 points.
So the conclusion of Yahoo Sports is that Emperor Wu is just like David Thompson, but after all, he won that game, but Emperor Wu didn’t beat too much, and he lost the game. I really don’t know what to praise?
Espn's report is fairer. Every time, NBA players who score more than 60 points are mentioned. The first thing people think of is Chamberlain's 100 points and Kobe's 81 points. But if you think about it carefully, scoring machines such as Wade, James, and Anthony have never performed 60+.
Looking back at the history of NBA, because the initial rules were not perfect and the levels were uneven, there were many players who scored more than 50 points. Therefore, Chamberlain's 100 points is actually not surprising. Kobe's 81 points is far stronger than Chamberlain's 100 points.
In modern basketball, 60 points have become the watershed for NBA superstars, but 60 points are not a reflection of the absolute strength of the stars. Just like players like Duncan and James, even if they don’t score 60+ points, they will be the top ten players in NBA history.
Since the NBA entered the real maturity period in 1984, there have been only 16 individual scores of more than 60 points in a single game (not counting Wu Huang this time), including Kobe Kobe, 5 times, Jordan has 4 times, Iverson, McGrady, O'Neal, Arenas, David Robinson, Tom Chambers, Carl Malone and Anthony each. Among them, Robinson, O'Neal, Malone and Chambers, four inside players, Robinson, O'Neal, Malone and Chambers, have 60+ data obtained in the era of center prevalence, and the other six are forward players. It can be seen that for modern basketball, even if some players can easily score 40 or 50 points, it has become increasingly difficult to surpass 60 points.
Of the 63 points Hugo scored in yesterday's game, 30 of them came from three-pointers. Obviously, three-pointers are crucial for players who want to join the "60+ club". Because it will not only improve the morale of the team in the game, but also increase his scoring speed. Kobe scored more than 60 in five times, which is a good three-pointer level, including McGrady, Arenas and Iverson.
Of course, in addition to three-pointers, the number of shots is also critical. This means that a player who has scored more than 60 will definitely not be a role player, because the team will not give him so many shots. You can refer to Hugo's 43 shots and you will know that, how can ordinary players get so many shots?
However, even if you give enough opportunities to play mobile phones, it is not easy to exceed 60 points, because if you want to cross the 60-point mark, the number of shots must be more than 30 times. When Kobe scored 81 points, he shot 46 goals, and Hugo also shot 43 goals yesterday. With the NBA's high-intensity game level, thirty or forty shots must also ensure a high hit rate. Physical fitness and psychology are definitely the most powerful proof of the player's personal strength.
In addition, with the departure of traditional centers such as Yao Ming and O'Neal, the current NBA can be said to have "no" centers. In addition, the development of the NBA in recent years is more inclined toward a small ball style. Backcourt players have gradually become the mainstay of various teams, so it will be even more difficult for insiders to obtain 60+ data in the NBA arena today. Even if outside players want to get 60+, it will be more and more difficult. Hugo's 63 points may be worth not very high in 60+ clubs, but it is definitely not the lowest.
Espn also listed the time when the league's active superstars scored 60+. First, Kobe, and Peter Pan scored more than 60 points for the first time in his career on December 21, 2005. As the "96 Golden Generation", he took 10 seasons to achieve this record. Also in 2005, the No. 1 pick Iverson scored 60 points on 17 of 36 shots, but he was one season ahead of Kobe, which means that the answer took 11 seasons to enter the 60+ club. Finally, McGrady, who entered the league a year later, took 7 seasons to score 60+.
In this way, players have to work hard for about ten years to surpass 60 points. However, there are exceptions. Jordan's first 60+ was in the 19851986 playoffs, and the leader entered the league in 1984. In addition, "General" Arenas only took 6 seasons to meet with 60 points.
But no matter what, Wu Huang's time to get 60+ is unprecedented. Yahoo Sports' report is actually suspected of inducing readers. Wu Huang can enter the 60+ club in his rookie season, which is the real rare thing about his 63 points.
After the game, the outside media reported Wu Huang's 63-point performance, but the protagonist in the news was so tired that he wanted to be a dead dog.
After the game last night, Emperor Wu went to Christine's house first. He worked hard for half a night. He was in a great mood and wanted to sleep in, but he would never get up until the afternoon of sleep the next day. However, he did not expect that after Christine left in the morning, he was beaten by a British girl before noon.
After being severely exploited by Little Hermione, Wu just returned home in the afternoon and received a call from Taylor Swift back to New York. So after meeting the little singer in the evening, Wu's face turned a little pale.
This was not finished. When Emperor Wu dragged his crumbling body to lie on Taylor Swift's bed and was about to go to bed at 8:20 tonight, Emma Roberts called again. Little Radish Shredded shouted to him in an excited voice on the phone for a long time, forcing him to get up and look at his website. Panda TV broke the record of one million people watching online at the same time for the first time today.
"Damn, I broke the record today!" Emperor Wu wailed, and then fell asleep... Soon, he had a strange dream. In the dream, he seemed to feel that he had two bodies, and then he turned into three more times. Now he could finally solve the embarrassment of being too busy.
In another time and space, someone had a strange dream. A big man in a fox-patterned pajamas sat up from the bed with sweat on his head, looked at Taylor Swift who was still sleeping beside him, and shouted in his heart: "Boss, I dreamed that I was being taken by three girls. Why are your Christine among the three girls? I never thought about sleeping with her!"
Another big man in panda pajamas also sat up from the bed, looked at Christine and Khlo Moretz lying on both sides, laughed and said in his heart: "It's okay, I had this dream just now, and I also gave your little singer and little Hermione abc. I took advantage of it."
"Strange, this is the second time we have had the same dream. The last time I dreamed that I didn't know what to do in Hong Kong, but this time the location was changed to New York. What's the situation?"
"I don't know, the scenes in the dream are now in a mess. I think it's better not to think about it. Tomorrow is Kobe's last game, just against my Nets. Do you think I'll give him some water, or let him leave with a loss?"
Chapter completed!
