At the beginning of the game, Wang Zelin and Hibbert jumped the ball, and the Blazers gained the right to attack.
Lillard advanced quickly, and Wang Zelin ran rampant in front.
The Pacers' inside line consists of Hibbert and David West. One weighs 124 kilograms and the other weighs 111 kilograms. They can't stop him at all.
Pacers guard Watson tried to slow down Lillard. The latter saw his boss leaning into the basket and just threw the ball in.
Hibbert was still thinking about drawing an offensive foul, but he was knocked away by Wang Zelin before he could stand up, causing his center of gravity to become unstable and he didn't have time to jump to block the shot.
At this time, in front of the reasonable collision area, Wang Zelin turned around and put his right elbow on Hibbert's waist. The latter's feet were stagnant and his expression was painful.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Wang Zelin rose up and grabbed the ball with his left hand in the air. The moment it landed, Hibbert and David West immediately double-teamed.
But just before the double-team was fully formed, Wang Zelin, who had just landed, shot up again. The speed of the second bullet was beyond the imagination of the two people on the opposite side. He pressed Hibbert's face with his left hand.
Holding the ball in his right hand, with a bang, he dunked with one arm and smashed the ball into the basket.
Hibbert couldn't bear the pressure, took two steps back, and then sat down on the floor.
Di~~~"
The referee's whistle blew, Hibbert blocked the foul, and Wang Zelin added a free throw.
"Hahahaha! Wang dunked on Roy Hibbert at the beginning. The Nuggets insider was simply vulnerable to him!"
Barkley laughed wildly in the commentary box. In addition to being excited, he kept patting his chubby belly. If he hadn't taken the occasion into consideration, he might have wanted to go on a "belly killing" offensive.
"Mr. Hibbert, it seems that you respect me, otherwise you wouldn't be able to stand in front of me."
As soon as Wang Zelin landed, he sprayed at Hibbert.
Before the game, Hibbert remembered the gloating smile he showed when he looked at the Trail Blazers camp.
"You bastard, wait, I will give you a big slap!"
Hibbert got up and yelled at Wang Zelin.
"On the field? Do you have this ability? Oh, maybe you want to tell me that you are covering me in a dream?"
Wang Zelin spoke sarcastically.
"Wang, how was my pass?"
Lillard rushed over and high-fived Wang Zelin.
"You just pass the ball like this throughout the game. If you beat this guy, I'll guarantee you double-digit assists tonight." Wang Zelin responded casually.
"Haha, how can 10 be enough? I want 20?"
After speaking, Lillard continued to clenched the five fingers of his right hand into a fist shape.
David West next to him was a little speechless. He finally understood why he saw the heifer flying into the sky this morning. It turned out that he was blown away by these two guys.
Wang Zelin made a solid free throw, 3:0, and the Trail Blazers took the lead.
The Pacers attacked and the ball was handed to David West in the short corner on the left wing.
As a former two-time All-Star inside player, David West was also the core of the inside offense even during the Pacers' top five days in previous seasons. What's more, now that Paul George and Jordan Hill are both injured, the Pacers' only
He is the only one left to rely on.
As for Hibbert, that guy is a pure blue-collar guy who has not developed effective offensive methods after playing for so many years. No wonder he will be gradually eliminated by the league in the future.
On the other hand, David West entered the league five or six years earlier than Hibbert, and retired two years later than Hibbert. He even won an NBA championship with the Golden State Warriors later in his career.
champion.
From the perspective of being an ordinary All-Star, David West's career is relatively perfect.
After receiving the ball in the low post, David West began to play singles facing the frame. After a few crotch dribbles, he turned around and passed Jokic, then ran and shot a jump hook.
This is his favorite move when attacking in the low post.
Seeing the basket getting closer and closer to him, he was secretly happy. He threw the ball with his right hand, but with a "duang" sound, he hit Wang Zelin who came to defend him, and by the way, it was still solid.
I got a slap in the face from Wang Zelin.
"Snapped!"
The basketball hit the backboard, bounced quickly, and flew into Will Barton's hands.
Why is he here? Where is... Roy? What is he doing???
David West was a little confused by being covered, and it took him a while to come back to his senses. With a frightened look on his face, he turned to look at Hibbert with eyes full of doubts.
During the Trail Blazers' fast break, Will Barton's layup was interfered with and missed, but Wang Zelin came from behind and grabbed the offensive rebound from Solomon Hill's head.
Suppressing the latter, he easily scored the second offense under the basket.
The Pacers' Watson broke through and scored, Rodney Stuckey missed a shot, Jokic grabbed a high rebound, and then also showed off a long pass across the court, accurately guiding the ball to the forward.
Connet Lee was under the basket, and the latter received a wonderful pass and easily wiped the board for a layup.
The Trail Blazers got off to a perfect start with a 7:0 start.
"What am I saying? Wang is the core of the Trail Blazers. As long as he is not injured, the Trail Blazers' minimum guarantee is also a playoff team. The Pacers and them are not opponents of the same magnitude at all. Kenny, I said
Right?"
Buckley asked.
Kenny Smith said: "Hey man, I admit that I am very strong, but if you want to say that it is also the playoffs for him to lead the Trail Blazers, I cannot agree with this. It seems that he has not really achieved a single-core rate so far in his career.
Have you proven yourself?"
Only in the opening stage, Kenny Smith also saw the gap between the Pacers and the Trail Blazers. This was an insurmountable gap caused by the quality of the stars. He understood that there was a high probability that the Pacers would not be able to end the Trail Blazers tonight.
Winning streak.
But it can be heard from his words that he is still not very optimistic about Wang Zelin, or in his subconscious, Wang Zelin is too young, and he is still not a true MVP level super giant!
Many viewers, including those in front of the TV, subconsciously nodded along after hearing Kenny Smith's explanation.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Therefore, if he wants to conquer the demanding fans and media in this arena, Wang Zelin still needs to show a stronger performance.
Trailing his opponent 7-0 at the start, Pacers coach Franger Vogel called for a timeout.
"Are you sleepwalking? Use your brain to think about who you are facing. It is now recognized as the best team in the league! The opponent is missing three main players, but so what? Forget about our lineup.
Are you in order? Please correct your attitude next time and don’t let me see that black hole-like defense again!”
Vogel has been coaching the Pacers since 2010. It can be said that he has spent the previous few seasons of glory with the Pacers. Therefore, he has a very high prestige in the team. It is difficult for people to compare with the one he later coached the Lakers.
A nanny coach comes to mind.
Vogel roared at the players, and the entire bench fell silent.
"Someone has to step up and score!" he roared in a low voice.
"Roy, I don't care what method you take, you must restrict the king's movement next." He said to Hibbert in a stern tone.
Hibbert looked expressionless and nodded heavily.
"And Rodney, you have to be aggressive."
The pause ends.
It was Rodney Stuckey who once put Iverson on the bench. He faked a shot and passed Connett Lee, and succeeded in a short-range throw.
At 2:7, the Pacers were still 5 points behind, but fortunately they broke the scoring panic.
"Li, don't worry about it. Next time he dares to come in, see if I don't give him a big mouth."
Wang Zelin yelled at Connett Lee in front of Starkey.
"Okay, boss."
Connet Lee shouted back.
Starkey glanced at Wang Zelin hatefully, and his lungs almost exploded with anger.
Trail Blazers offense.
Wang Zelin walked to the basket without hesitation, trying to hit one.
At the free throw line, Wang Zelin, who received a pass from Lillard, naturally posed as a triple threat. After forcing Hibbert to take a step back, he raised his knife and shot with an exquisite half-volume shot, once again hitting the Pacers' basket.
.
9:2.
It's the Pacers' turn to attack.
This time Stuckey repeated his old trick, using a change of rhythm after the pick-and-roll to deceive Lillard, and once again rushed to the basket.
call---!
On the court, with a gust of wind, Starkey rushed to the inside of the Blazers in the blink of an eye.
Unfortunately……
Stuckey forgot why he was waived by the Pistons.
Isn’t it just because I don’t have a high golf quotient and I easily get dizzy when playing, but I also have a very individual personality and feel arrogant inside.
In this attack, what he wanted was not just an ordinary layup, but a head-on dunk against Wang Zelin.
Phew!
Seeing this scene, Wang Zelin was instantly happy.
Starkey rushed faster and faster, soared into the air, grabbed the ball with one hand and stretched his body into a bow shape.
At this moment, he was extremely excited!
The next second, he will dunk the Blazers' basket!
He crazily tightened his abdomen and exerted force, slamming the basketball into the basket.
At this moment, a giant palm appeared in the sky, and it was pulled out suddenly. With a bang, the basketball in Starkey's hand was confiscated by the giant palm. He lost his balance in the air, fell to the ground and fell to the ground with a crash.
above the floor.
Ruthless Capture!!!
"ah!!!!"
The whole place was boiling, and everyone covered their mouths in disbelief.
"Oooh... caught the shot!!! King just missed Rodney Stuckey's stupid dunk!!!!" Barkley yelled immediately.
However, it's not the end yet.
After Wang Zelin landed, he moved forward on his own and launched a quick descent.
"Fight back!"
On the sidelines, David Vanderpool came to his senses first, raised his arms and shouted wildly toward the court.
After passing the center circle... and passing the three-point line... I looked up and saw a man standing under the Pacers basket - David West.
"Go away!"
Wang Zelin glared at David West in front of him. After yelling, a cruel sneer quickly appeared on his face and he accelerated his advance.
After taking a step from the free throw line, Wang Zelin put the ball together with both hands, raised it above his head, exerted force on one leg, and flew towards the basket.
"Shet!"
As Trail Blazers No. 36 got closer and closer to him, David West's legs kept shaking. Finally, he cursed angrily in his heart and stepped aside unwillingly.
boom---!
With a loud bang, Wang Zelin poured the ball into the Pacers' basket with both hands, then grabbed the basket and did a pull-up before reluctantly returning to the ground.
“Too cruel!!!”
Beside Barkley, Kenny Smith also let out a sigh of emotion.
"Oh ho!"
"king!"
"mvp!"
"..."
The Blazers jumped up from the bench, waving towels crazily and screaming strangely.
"Soft egg! Soft egg! Soft egg!"
David West's actions just now completely angered the home audience in the audience. Everyone stood up, walked away from David West, and raised their middle fingers.
What's more, he angrily threw water bottles, popcorn, unopened Durex and other random things in his hands towards the playing field.
The Bankers Life Arena suddenly fell into chaos, and the security team was so frightened that they rushed out to restore order at the scene.
The Pacers immediately applied for another timeout. Even though they were far away, it seemed that they could still vaguely hear the various angry yells from Frank Vogel on the Pacers' bench.
At the TNT live broadcast, Barkley said with great excitement: "What am I saying, never piss off an MVP, you can't afford his anger. The Pacers learned a hard lesson tonight!"
Kenny Smith shook his head: "The morale of the Pacers has collapsed, the morale of the military has been lost, defeat... is already doomed!"
This game ended with the Blazers' victory.
112:85, the Trail Blazers won by 27 points, won 24 consecutive victories, and continued to create history.
Wang Zelin played 38 minutes. In fact, the game entered garbage time at the end of the first half, but he showed no mercy today. He made 20 of 29 shots from the field, 8 of 9 free throws, and scored 48 points and 20 rebounds.
5 blocks, 2 assists and 1 steal, a super luxurious data of 40-20.
Among them, 48 points and 20 rebounds in a single game both set season highs.
After the game, Barkley's phrase "never piss off an MVP" quickly topped the list of trending searches in North America.
