The yellow storm in the NBA

Chapter 106, 21 consecutive victories

After the second half of the game started, McGrady continued to swing for about five minutes, and then his efficiency gradually dropped. The main reason was that his physical strength could not keep up.

Many people have said that Tracy McGrady's talent is definitely one of the best in history. Some even think that his talent is the kind that only occurs once in fifty years. However, he has not achieved any achievements in his entire career and only has two personal honors.

The scoring champion and several best teams are a bit unworthy of his talent.

Is it because McGrady is too lazy to fully realize his talent? In fact, no, the main reason is that he has congenital scoliosis of the spine, and the doctor even said that his sports career will not last more than five years.

Among the four major shooting guards, Kobe is famous for his physical strength, Iverson is famous for his endurance, and Carter has the longest career. Only Tracy McGrady’s peak period was too short. His physical talent is actually top-notch, and he has a pair that even Kobe would envy.

Big Hand, if it were not for scoliosis, he might have a more brilliant career.

With McGrady not moving much, Joe Johnson began to take over the Hawks' offense. He used his precise mid-range shots to help the Hawks keep the score from expanding.

In the first half of the game, all the Hawks' eyes were attracted by McGrady. Under this situation, he quietly scored 15 points and became McGrady's biggest boost.

"T-Mac's efficiency has dropped a lot. It seems that he consumed a lot in the first half of the game. After the halftime break, he can only maintain a high-intensity game for five minutes. Now the Eagles have made Joe the first choice.

This is the best adjustment. If McGrady continues to play in his current state, he will not be able to do better than Joe."

"His condition has declined a lot since this season. Today's game is because the opponent is the Rockets, which aroused his desire to fight! It is difficult for ordinary opponents to see him playing with such passion."

In the third quarter, McGrady played for more than 7 minutes before being replaced and rested. The Rockets' lead was not very big, and they still failed to break through double digits and were only missing one free throw.

At the beginning of the fourth quarter, McGrady made a three-pointer. In the next round, he assisted Yi Jianlian, who made a cut, and dunked, helping the Eagles chase the score to only 4 points, keeping the game in suspense.

In this case, his experience helped him continue to maintain his threat, Quan Xiao's correction

He was more exhausted today than in the past, so every offensive choice may determine the final result of this game, and McGrady's rich experience allows him to read the game better and then make better choices.

Just when the Hawks were about to go further, Yao Ming broke out. He scored four goals in a row and helped the Rockets open the score to 8 points. Then Quan Xiao and Battier's three-pointers opened the point difference to double digits.

, a severe blow to the Eagles' psychology.

With five minutes left in the game, the Eagles coach finally decided to give up. He took off McGrady and Johnson, and he kept Yi Jianlian for training.

In the end, the Rockets defeated the Hawks 109:101 at home and won their 19th consecutive victory.

"Quan, you used his signature to attack Tracy in front of him. Is this your provocation against him?" A reporter asked Quan Xiao at the post-match press conference.

"Why do you have such an idea? Why would I provoke me when I'm so good? Tracy is a star I like very much. I stole a lot of technical moves from him, and the pull-up is just one of them. I can use it in front of him.

Using his signature moves to challenge him is a tribute to him rather than a provocation."

"Tracy, what do you think of Quan Xiao using your signature moves to fight you in front of you?"

"I was surprised, his talent is really incredible. I went to watch his games when he was still playing in college, and I was envious of his talent at that time. In addition to that, I also

I find it very interesting, it feels like looking in the mirror.”

"You mean he is imitating you and is a copycat? We all know that Chinese people like copycats the most."

"No, what I mean is that he has already mastered the move of dry pulling, and he is not inferior to me at all. You know, I have ten more years of competition experience than him!"

41 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, these are McGrady’s statistics. He played 35 minutes in this game, shot 24 times, and shot 62.5% from the field.

45 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists, this is Quan Xiao's data. He played 37 minutes in this game, shot 21 times, and his shooting rate was 71.4%.

As of today, Quan Xiao has played against all four major shooting guards and won them all. His personal performance is not inferior to anyone else.

Even better.

Yi Jianlian played 33 minutes today, scoring 17 points on 7 of 12 shots. He made many air cuts and dunks under the basket, and provided several wonderful shots. And he was able to perform like this because Scola's defense was not very strong.

, of course his opponent Scola also performed very well, scoring 19 points, two points more than he scored.

February 13, 2008, Toyota Center, Houston.

As the red light turned on at the end of the game, the Toyota Center was filled with jubilation because the Rockets won again. They defeated the visiting Kings and set a 21-game winning streak, the second longest winning streak in history.

"Hi, Quan, congratulations on winning again. Your team has created the second longest winning streak in history. Will you continue to win?"

They definitely want to win, and every professional player will spare no effort to pursue victory."

"So, how many more games do you think you can win? Can you break the Lakers' 33-game winning streak?"

"It's hard to say this question. Our team is not deliberately thinking about setting a new winning streak now. We just play every game well. Of course it is best to win. Even if we lose, it doesn't matter. Compared with the record

Come on, the championship is the highest honor for professional players."
