Chapter 916
He, who was "at his peak upon debut,"
has completely grown up.
This year, he... is able to average 31.5 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.3 assists, 1.8 steals, and 1.5 blocks per game.
Scoring, rebounds, assists, and blocks are all career highs.
Such an astonishing performance also fully fits his title of "Hexagonal Warrior."
He fills the team's stat sheet all by himself.
It's just a pity... there are too many strong teams in the East this year, and the Cavaliers, who didn't make many acquisitions during the offseason,
mean that even though LeBron puts up heaven-defying performances, he still cannot help the team get enough victories.
Five wins and five losses.
A 50% winning percentage puts the Cavaliers in eighth place in the East, just touching the threshold of the playoffs.
Although LeBron alone has helped the Cavaliers reach the ranks of the playoffs in his third year.
But it seems it's still not enough.
Additionally.
On the West side, there is also a player whose personal performance has gone berserk, with data exploding in a rapid upward trajectory.
But the team's record is lukewarm.
Who?
None other than "The Little Flying Knight" Kobe, who forced O'Neal away and caused the "OK Combination" to fall apart.
This year, Kobe is able to explode for: 35.7 points, 5.5 rebounds, 5.0 assists, 2.0 steals, and 1.0 block per game.
This data is also absolutely integrated offense and defense.
Especially in terms of offense, 35.7 points per game is simply not too exaggerated.
Even someone as strong as Michael Jordan, during his peak, during his 10-year scoring title period.
His highest season scoring average was only 37.1 points.
Kobe's 35.7 points this year would rank 2nd among Jordan's ten scoring titles.
One can imagine how abnormal this is.
After leaving O'Neal, "The Little Flying Knight" Kobe, after settling down for a season, has gone completely berserk in the new season, and his personal data has had a qualitative leap.
Flying through the sky and escaping the earth, capable of everything.
No matter who the opponent is, he can force a score over their heads, and his personal performance is impeccable.
At the same time.
He is also extremely hardworking on the defensive end; he is definitely not the kind of player who only wants to attack, ignores defense, and doesn't fight for rebounds.
The ultimate desire to win makes Kobe try his best in every game to help the team win.
Helplessly.
His teammates are all "A Dou" who cannot be helped up.
No matter how well he plays, it is very difficult to help the team win the game, or rather, win many games.
The Lakers, who didn't even touch the playoffs last year.
With a 5-win, 5-loss record in the new season, they are ranked seventh in the West.
They will break into the playoffs this year, but with Kobe playing so well and being so berserk, they only have the seventh ranking.
Then wanting to go very far is a long and arduous journey.
"Little Emperor" LeBron and "Little Flying Knight" Kobe both went berserk, putting up perfect individual performances.
Even though they couldn't lead their teams to many victories, they are still deeply loved by fans and have won countless applause.
Making their game popularity not low either.
And beneath this, "Melo" Anthony's personal ability is also gradually being revealed.
The titles belonging to him, "Human Jump Shot Essence" and "Offensive Kaleidoscope," are also gradually being established.
And the Wizards' "Agent Zero" Arenas, he has also ushered in a leap-style improvement this season.
Not only has his personal scoring average soared to 30 points, but he has also helped the team stabilize at a playoff level.
You have to know.
The East is truly full of powerful teams; under such high competitive pressure, he can still help the team get the seventh record in the East.
Arenas is about to be promoted from "Agent Zero" to "Grand General."
If there is no highlight, force a highlight.
If there is no heat, use your own god-like performance to forcibly win the applause of fans and be forcibly valued by media and newspapers.
That is the ability that a superstar, or even a super-superstar, should possess.
Two days later.
US Airways Center.
The matchup between the Suns and the Bulls arrives.
This is a showdown that feels like a preview of the Finals.
Although the Celtics, as "one of the Seven Kings," were brutally slaughtered by the Bulls in the season opener.
Pushing the Bulls to the first tier, becoming an existence like an emperor.
However.
Just based on the dominance the Suns have displayed on the court so far this season, tonight in their own home arena, there are still many fans who believe the Suns possess the ability to fight the Bulls.
Not saying they will definitely win.
At least... a brutal slaughter of more than 20 points is absolutely impossible.
And once the Suns unleash their run-and-gun system and can provide enough pressure on the defensive end.
Then.
The Suns are not incapable of winning tonight.
8:00 PM.
30 minutes before the game, both teams are doing their final warm-ups, all needing to bring 120% of their state to face the game.
At the commentary desk.
Al McCoy looks excited, "Except for the first game against the Bulls, the Celtics have continued to display powerful dominance.
Telling the league.
The combination of "Wolf King" Garnett and "The Truth" Pierce is really powerful.
The Suns are the same; their performance so far this season has also had a not-so-small improvement compared to last season.
Especially Stoudemire's growth, as well as Nash's MVP-level playmaking, and efficient scoring output.
Completely covering up his shortcomings on the defensive end.
Letting the Suns display astonishing dominance.
Tonight, at the Suns' home court, a battle against the "Emperor" Bulls will be absolutely wonderful."
"That's right."
Doug Collins nods in agreement, his whole person also very excited, "I have been looking forward to this matchup almost since the beginning of the season.
The Bulls are the defending champions, they are undefeated this season, and the "Flame Emperor" and the entire Bulls team have evolved and transformed further.
It seems like no flaws can be found, which makes people shudder.
But the Suns are also "one of the Seven Kings," they possess the ability to challenge the "Emperor," and I hope the Suns can end the Bulls' nine-game winning streak.
At their own home court, defeat the Bulls once, and let the "Emperor" team lose a game."
"Hahaha!"
Al McCoy laughs, as if explaining, he takes over the conversation, "Doug doesn't mean to look down on the Bulls; on the contrary... he thinks the Bulls are too strong, too invincible.
No one can see their defeated side.
Instead, there is some longing.
So who will win? Let us witness it together in the main game!!!" ===== CHAPTER 918 =====
