21 years of loyalty is difficult to reproduce, the jianghu does not forget the old driver! On January 6, the Lone Ranger's home game against the Warriors will host a dentisting ceremony for Dirk Nowitzki! Congratulations to King No! Let's pay tribute to the legend together!
"Made history and I love my team!" After the game, Gidi rushed to send a personal message.
The reason is very simple, the Thunder's game against the Lone Ranger today, although the Thunder eventually lost 86-95 to doncic and the Lone Rangers who both had Hardaway Jr., but the Thunder rookie Gidey achieved a triple-double at the age of 19 years and 85 days, which is also the youngest player in history to win a triple-double.
In today's game, Gidy shot 7 of 16 and 3 of 5 from 3-point range, scoring 17 points, 13 boards, 14 assists and 4 blocks. He previously missed three games for triggering a health and safety agreement. This is also his comeback battle, so he successfully unlocked the historical achievement, the youngest triple-double in history.
The specific list is as follows:
1. Gidey 19 years old and 85 days
2. Lameló Bauer 19 years old and 140 days
3. Fultz 19 years old and 317 days
4. Doncic 19 years old and 327 days
5. Lonzo Bauer 20 years old and 15 days
Today's game, Doncic probably has the most feelings. After a sprained ankle on December 11, Doncic was missing 23 days from his injury, during which he also contracted the new crown. In his first comeback, Doncic scored 14 points, 9 boards and 10 assists on 6-of-14 shooting.
Doncic looked overwhelmed after the game: "I haven't played an official game in four weeks and it feels really good to be back. During my infection, I felt like my chest was burning and I felt like my body was very tired and severely lacking in energy. ”
"Back on the field, I still feel a little tired. Especially when shooting shots, some balls I think will definitely score after the shot, but I didn't expect that it ended up being a three-shot. ”
At this moment, seeing The figure of Gidy running all over the field, which is also the first game to return after triggering the agreement, he will probably sigh a sentence of "it is good to be young".
At the same time, Gidy's scores, rebounds and assists were the highest of all the players in the game, which also broke Luka Doncic's record for the youngest.
An interesting post-match scene was when Gidey was about to get a triple-double when Aaron Wiggins snatched a rebound from him. Aaron Wiggins said he only learned about it when the fans were frantic, so he immediately passed the ball to Gidey, hoping that the rebound could be transferred to him.
Gidey laughed after the game, saying he didn't deliberately pursue triple-doubles, but wanted to get it naturally.
Recently, young people are still very good at talking.
In fact, Gidy has won a quasi-triple-double many times this season, but in the end he is always a little closer to the triple-double, and he is not worse than anything else, but scoring.
For example, against the Clippers on December 19, Gidy had eight points, 18 rebounds and 10 assists, and he threw only one three-pointer on 4-of-14 shooting in that game. In November, he had six points, nine rebounds and nine assists against the Heat, compared to seven points, 12 rebounds and nine assists against the Pelicans.
The most outrageous thing was his last game, where he scored 0 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, shooting 0-of-8 from the field, becoming the first player in the NBA league since 1971 to score no points in a single game but get a double-double.
The last person to play a similar stat was Noam Van Lier of the Cincinnati Royals (the predecessor of the Kings), who had 0 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists in the team's 1971 victory over the Lakers.
In this general summary, Gidi's personal characteristics should be relatively clear to everyone. Playing in 31 games this season, he averaged 11.0 points, 7.3 rebounds and 6.4 assists per game, shooting 39.0 percent from the field, shooting just 26.1 percent from three-point range and just 65.1 percent from the free throw line.
Arguably, Josh Gidey and the Bauer family have the same style – the shooting stability is insufficient, but the pitch is highly creative.
However, in some of Gidy's recent games, his offensive stability has been slightly better. Prior to that weird 2-double, Gidy had scored less than 10 points in just two of his nine games in December.
In fact, the growth trajectory of Gidi and Sanqiu is very similar. Born on 10 October 2002 in Melbourne, Australia, Josh Gidey has been with basketball since his birth, his parents are former professional basketball players, and his father has led the team to two Australian Pro League championships.
Although his father is not an NBA athlete, in the 20 years of promoting basketball in Australia, his father can help the young Gidey get the best basketball genes and basketball resources in australia.
As early as the age of 3, Gidey sat on the sidelines to watch his father lead the Melbourne Tigers to professional games as a teaching assistant, and like Curry when he was a child, this kind of growing up environment also helped Gidey get an excellent basketball IQ and playing feeling.
In 2019, Gidey averaged 20 points, 8.3 rebounds and 6 assists per game in Australia's U18 professional league to help the team win the championship in this category, after which he received the attention of the NBA Universal Academy.
This is a training camp jointly organized by the NBA and the Australian Institute of Sport, the advantage is that it can concentrate the country's top basketball youth training resources to cultivate the next generation of basketball talents, and unite with other NBA colleges around the world to build a platform to give young people from all over the world the opportunity to go out and communicate with other basketball rookies in the world.
In Australia, the Australian Institute of Sport is a key springboard for entering professional basketball, including Bogut, Dela Vidowa, Exam, Ingles, Mills, Baines, all from this school. Through learning and training here, Gidi has also grown rapidly and has performed well in various international invitational tournaments and exchange competitions.
Because of his fame on the international stage, Gidey will naturally receive the attention of many American scouts. Gidey ben hoped to go to the NCAA, adapt to American culture in advance, and join the NBA after his performance matures. At that time, many universities also offered him scholarships, including 6 famous universities such as Arizona and Colorado.
In 2020, Gedy flew to the United States with her parents, visited various universities, and even made a basic judgment and decision to bring her talent to the NCAA. But after returning to Australia, the Gidey family met with the CEO of the NBL and listened to their introduction to the NBL's Future Star program.
In Australia, Josh Gidey is a top talent, but the prospect of going to the NCAA is hard to say. At that time, the success of the three-goal in the NBL became a boost, and Gidey eventually stayed in the NBL Adelaide 36ers.
In the NBL, Gidy played in 28 games, starting 26 of them, averaging 10.9 points, 7.3 rebounds and 7.3 assists in 32.1 minutes per game. Of course, shooting efficiency is also average, shooting 69% from the free throws and 29% from three-point range.
But at the time, he showed a very good big picture view. In March 2020, he represented the Australian national team in the Asian Cup qualifiers, playing 11 minutes in a match with Hong Kong, China, scoring 11 points, 3 boards and 6 assists, replacing Simmons and setting a new record for the youngest appearance for the Australian adult national team.
Similar to Simmons, although Gidey played as a point guard on the court, his height reached 2.01 meters, and the main advantage in the draft was the attributes of a large guard, and finally the Thunder selected Gidy with the No. 6 pick.
Although Gidey is good-looking, especially with curly hair, it seems that there is no need to worry about Australians not adapting to confrontation.
"In Australia, the intensity of the basketball game is very strong. Players fight fiercely in the penalty area, while referees tend to 'go with the flow'. Gidy has described it this way, and his data in the NBA and his data in the NBL are not much different, which seems to support this.
In a post-match interview, Gidey spoke about his personal growth: "I've made more progress mentally than physically, I'm learning from every race and I'm happy with where I'm at the moment. ”
"He's not the kind of guy who's afraid of wild passes and doesn't want to trust his teammates," Thunder forward Kenridge Williams said. ”
The Thunder have cultivated Gidy as the cornerstone of the team, not only starting the game, but also playing 31 minutes per game.
At the age of 19, he can only be regarded as a piece of jade, and the upper limit of the future depends on how he shoots. After all, the essence of the three-double thing, no one in the league should understand it better than the Thunder.
Finally, a crude analogy: Alexander = Durant, Gidey = Westbrook, then the Thunder's king explosion combination is again.
