480 Half-time quadruple-double, unprecedented!
In fact, rebounding was planned before the game.
Generally before the game or in the habit that the team has developed over a long period of time, there is a division of labor among who grabs rebounds, who goes on the fast break, who is stuck under the basket, and who is in the corner.
It is precisely because of the clear division of labor that the entire team can be knitted together.
Otherwise, if everyone goes to grab rebounds, who will go for the fast break?
Everyone is in the corner, who is going to sit under the basket?
There is only one kind of player, and the coach will not assign any division of labor to them.
That is the absolute core of the team.
If they want to rebound, they will rebound. If they want to be in the corner, they will be in the corner.
They have a certain degree of freedom on the court.
Because the abilities of core players are often much better than ordinary players.
Ordinary players just focus on one aspect and then maximize their abilities in this aspect.
But the core players have a lot to do.
They must not only maintain their aggressiveness on the offensive end, but also show their defensive toughness on the defensive end.
They want to score, assist, and steal...
Their abilities far exceed those of ordinary players, and they take on more tasks.
Therefore, when playing on the court, what they want to do and how to do it often depends on their own condition.
If you use some rules and regulations to restrict them, it will limit their performance.
This is what Wang Yi is like at this time.
Originally, according to the most reasonable way of playing, Wang Yi should have retreated to the backcourt when Hield was shooting to prevent the Pelicans' fast break.
Grabbing rebounds should be a matter for the two inside players, Holmes and Bagley.
But Wang Yi has Zhang Dashuai’s experience card.
His ability to rebound is also extraordinary.
So when he passed the ball to Hilder and saw that Hilder was about to take action, he was already heading inside.
Inside, there were as many as three tall men over 2.1 meters tall at this time: Bagley, Holmes and Valanciunas.
There is also a 135 kg son: Zion.
The four of them are already fighting for better rebounding positions in the paint.
Under such circumstances, Wang Yi rushed in.
When Hield missed a three-pointer, Wang Yi jumped up.
Pick off the backboard over 4 people's heads.
After landing, Zion and Valanciunas immediately rushed over and covered Wang Yi firmly.
Wang Yi swayed upward twice, and Zion was thrown away.
But Valanciunas has a lot of experience.
He knew that with his height of 2.13 meters, he could just extend his arms to cover Wang Yi and there was no need to jump at all.
Wang Yi saw that Valanciunas could not fly away, so he could only shake it again and fly to Zion again.
Then he took the opportunity to gently pass the ball from Varan's armpit with his right hand to Holmes's hands.
After Holmes got the ball, he was left unguarded.
A violent dunk ignited the audience again.
Although Wang Yi did not score this time for the Kings, his rebounds were crucial.
No one could have imagined that Wang Yi would pick up the rebound among three long men and a muscular stick in the paint.
…
The subsequent shooting percentages of both sides were not high.
Another reason why the shooting percentage is not high is that there are a lot of rebounds.
Zion and Valanciunas did grab some rebounds.
Holmes and Bagley got some, too.
But in this quarter, Wang Yi got the most rebounds.
He actually grabbed 9 rebounds in a single quarter.
Three of them were offensive rebounds.
After grabbing an offensive rebound, he usually attacks directly for the second time.
While almost everyone else's shooting percentage is not high, Wang Yi's shooting percentage is ridiculously high.
Whether it was a two-pointer, a three-pointer, or a logo three-pointer, he shot a terrifying shooting percentage.
6 of 8 two-pointers in a single quarter;
4 of 5 three-pointers;
4 of 4 free throws;
Scored 28 points.
At this time, his half-time statistics definitely blinded everyone's eyes.
45 points, 15 rebounds, 13 assists and 13 blocks!
If it were any other player, if he could score 4 double-doubles like this in the entire game, he would be considered a god in one battle.
And Wang Yi scored such data at halftime. If it is a little exaggerated, this can be described as shocking the past and the present.
Well, if this performance is just "barely" described as shocking, at the end of the game an hour and a half later, Wang Yi's performance was absolutely shocking.
A veritable shock to the past and the present!
Michael Jordan, who was attending an event in Chicago, was holding a cigar and a red wine glass in the hotel, watching the game.
When he saw the statistics played on the court, he couldn't help but put down his glass and took off his cigar.
A puff of smoke blew out of his mouth.
"Oh... this guy was born for basketball."
When he said this, there was a hint of regret in the admiration on Jordan's face.
I just regret that Wang Yi was born too late. If Wang Yi had been born 30 years earlier, he would have had a great time competing with Wang Yi at his peak.
Jordan was so lonely in his prime.
Looking around the league, we can't find any rivals.
Eventually he retired due to loneliness.
Just like Zhang Yining at her peak, she retired because she couldn't find an opponent.
In their respective fields, they are all invincible.
And being invincible is so, so lonely.
NBA official Twitter has updated Wang Yi’s real-time data at this time.
The title is: "Shocking!!! Triple-double in a single quarter, 40 quadruple-doubles in the half, God is playing in his jersey tonight."
Well, now the NBA official Twitter also likes to use titles such as "shocked", "shocking", and "the whole league is shaking" to attract attention.
The content is:
"In today's play-off game, Kings player Wang Yi returned from the firing line and scored a triple-double in a single quarter and a quadruple-double in the half, becoming the first person in history. The following are his statistics: 45 points, 15 rebounds and 13 assists
13 blocks!”
Under this tweet, there were over a thousand comments in a short time.
And it looks like it can reach tens of thousands in half an hour at most.
"We were watching the game live, how regretful the fans who didn't watch it would be."
"Watching this game, this guy is incredible."
"In the beginning, he blocked Zion's four big shots, and also blocked Valanciunas. He took off four long shots in the paint. Do you dare to say that this is a defender?"
Of course there are more fans complaining.
"Damn, there's no live broadcast across the United States."
"I can't get Sacramento TV on my TV. Damn it, it's so annoying to watch the game on my phone."
"Live broadcast across the United States, idiot!"
"Live broadcast across the United States, idiot 1"
"Live broadcast across the United States, Idiot 2."
…
"Live broadcast across the United States, idiot 125770."
In a very short period of time, there were 100,000 comments requesting a live broadcast across the United States.
At the same time, in the NBA Live Management Center.
The phone calls of the leaders of the management center are almost overwhelming, all of them are asking for a live broadcast across the United States.
One of them even called personally from NBA President Silver.
"Live broadcast across the United States, idiot!!!"
The leaders of the management center almost cried.
Didn't you arrange this yourself?
Chapter completed!
