The Basketball Court Swordsman
Chapter 329: : What is the top scorer?
30 points, 5 assists, 7 rebounds, 15 shots and 12 goals, no turnovers. It is not an exaggeration to say that the game between the Pacers and the Heat on February 1 was David West's best game of the season.
30 points. Facts have proved that as long as West is given enough tactical status and shot rights, your uncle is still your uncle. West's performance has left Chris Bosh, the Eastern All-Star starting power forward, dull. I originally thought that during today's media opening hours, West would become the focus of reporters competing for interviews.
As everyone knows, his little brother Paul George stole all the limelight of "David West".
"George, how do you feel about being selected for the All-Star Game for the first time?"
"You must be very excited to be a partner in the All-Star Game with Chris Paul?"
"Will you feel pressure from being selected to the All-Star team?"
During today's media opening hours, no one cares about Henson, no West, or even a few reporters to interview Paul. 80% of the reporters gathered around Paul George, who had just been promoted to the All-Star Game.
At two o'clock this afternoon, Paul George was among the full list of Eastern All-Star teams announced by the league! Of course, this also won Henson's dinner for the next month.
Although this is the third year since George has entered the league, although he has also had high performances before, he has completed lore and scored too high points. But at this time, facing so many reporters one after another, George was still a little green.
When he was no longer young, Henson knew that he would also represent the Pacers and would officially enter the Paul George era!
The fact that George was selected for the All-Star team immediately spread throughout the world. When many reporters were ready to tease the Pacers that only one player was selected for the All-Star Game, George's appearance undoubtedly disturbed their "good game."
And George's data, to be honest, is impeccable. You can't ask for a player who was only selected with the tenth overall pick in the third grade and never played a first-level NCAA winning streak to do better than George.
Record? Not to mention. As a direct participant in the Pacers' 22-game winning streak, no reporter would be as stupid as that record to question George.
In Henson’s words in an interview with reporters, “Paul George is an unquestioned All-Star player. This is not my boast, because you can’t find the point to question George.”
Henson dared to say this, and it also proved that he was full of absolute confidence in George. From now to the beginning of the All-Star Weekend, the Pacers have half a month to play. Henson knew that George, who was selected for the All-Star team for the first time in the past two weeks, would be put under a magnifying glass to observe, but even so, they could not find any flaws!
In this way, the 15 days of madness that belonged to Paul George officially began!
On February 4th, 5th, and 6th, the Pacers will have their first and last back-to-back combat this season.
It stands to reason that things like back-to-back will only happen during the shrinking season. In a normal season, back-to-back is the limit. But the Pacers have back-to-back-to-back games this season, which makes Henson wonder if Adam Xiaohua added some of his own "bad taste" when the league arranged the schedule last summer.
Since it was fighting back to back, the last game was an away game. Therefore, most reporters believe that the Pacers’ winning streak will definitely be ended in these three games!
"Why should I worry? Isn't it that my opponent should be worried?" To this, Henson responded very arrogantly. But this Chinese coach, he does have arrogant capital.
He has two All-Star guards!
On February 4th, in the first round of the back-to-back schedule, the Pacers defended the Thibodeau Army at home.
If it is placed last season, this will definitely be a tough fight. But this year, when the Bulls lost Derrick Rose, Henson no longer feared the Chicago Bulls.
In this game, Thibodeau still upholds the characteristics of his deadly main force. Nate Robinson played 40 minutes in the first game, and the brilliant Lor Deng was smashed for 44 minutes. He was shot by Henson at uCB. Tai Gibson, the all-around power forward, also played 44 minutes!
However, even so, Thibodeau failed to withstand the Pacers shock. The reason is simple, Paul George, who was just selected to the All-Star team, this game is really explosive!
"33 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists, Paul George, he told everyone why he can become an All-Star!" Reggie Miller's shouts and the data on the big screen are enough to explain George today The excitement of the performance. This thin and tall guard from Los Angeles, Tom Thibodeau's proud defense was torn apart.
Stop jumpers, catch shots, three-point long shots, break with the ball... You can see too many offensive methods in Paul George, and his arsenal seems to never be out of stock !
After the game, No. 24 in the Pacers jersey smiled at the camera, "I'm very happy, I can prove my strength!"
And today Henson, who was wearing a red Armanissi on the court, said that George was even more exaggerated. "I think George should be selected as the starting All-Star."
Henson knows that George is not the kind of player who is easy to be proud and lost, so he is willing to use all the beautiful words on him. If Stephenson scored the high score today, then Henson would definitely not dare to praise him so much.
111 to 101, the Bulls pawn, the Pacers broke the Rockets' 22-game winning streak and won 23 consecutive games, becoming the team with the second most consecutive wins in NBA history!
George was selected to the All-Star team again and won another 23 straight. The Indiana Pacers have undoubtedly become the most successful team in the league at this time!
In the second back-to-back game on February 5th, Larry Drew's Eagles were also vulnerable.
George's high-profile performance continued, 29 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists. He also defended the Eagles' proud white shooter Korver to a 3-for-13 defense. The 7 Pacers scored in double figures, beating the Eagles 114 to 103, and the winning streak became 24!
After the game, there was no war of words or scolding. Henson said long ago that Larry Drew can no longer be called his opponent.
Henson has strode forward, but old Drew is still standing still. The gap between the two has long been widened.
"I don't know, but the Pacers' results are too good to be a bit too exaggerated." After the game, facing the Pacers' 24 consecutive victories and 46 wins and 3 losses, Larry Drew was somewhat incoherent.
In this way, the Pacers finally ushered in the last back-to-back battle, an away challenge to the Philadelphia 76ers.
The 76ers are one of only three teams that have defeated the Pacers this season, but it was from the game that lost to the 76ers that the Pacers embarked on a journey of 24 consecutive victories.
"Like last time, we will fight for the Pacers' winning streak to end." Before the game, 76ers coach Doug Collins said righteously.
However, today, under the Pacers' high morale and perseverance defense, the 76ers only shot 34.8% of the game. This kind of offensive efficiency is naturally unable to disarm the defending champion. What's more, now the defending champion also has a runaway Paul George.
With 28 points, 10 rebounds, and 4 assists, George got his wish and got a double-double. The defenses of Nick Young and Evan Turner are almost paperless in front of George. George can tear it up with a little effort.
"Three games, averaging 30 points! Paul George is unbeatable. The criticism of being an All-Star did not make him feel pressured, but made him motivated! I now agree with Coach Henson Joe's words the other day. In a word, George should be selected as an All-Star starter!" Jeff Van Gundy said with a smile at the commentary at the Wells Fargo Center Arena.
As the leading scorer of a championship team, George finally made the world aware of his strength. Back-to-back-to-back competitions can't drag the Pacers down the quagmire.
Henson, who wore an Armani suit, and Paul George, who played high-profile performance time and time again, began to appear in major news and sports magazines at the same time.
The latest issue of "Sports Illustrated" magazine even invited the two to shoot the cover of the magazine. The title of this issue is: People believe that this will be another hot pair of mentors in the entire league.
It seems that even the heat of the Houston All-Star Game itself cannot surpass the Indiana Pacers!
At the same time that Henson won 25 consecutive victories, he was already stared at by a pair of brown eyes. This time in the All-Star Game, Henson may have some unexpected gains...
