In the 2016 Finals, the last key ball, Tyrone Lue walked towards James with the tactical board, and old Zhan pointed to Irving, the meaning is very clear, this ball to Irving to throw it.
Then, Irving faced Curry, the season's unanimous MVP, and delivered the fatal blow that ended Cleveland's half-century championship-free history. When the game was over, Irving returned to the locker room and videoed with Kobe for the first time, and during the finals, Irving kept in communication with Kobe and listened to Kobe's opinions.
"This is the Mamba Spirit." Irving said holding the championship trophy.
The technology is picturesque, the bigger the scene, the more can break the game, Irving and Kobe Do have similarities, which is why Irving always cause trouble, but still ranks among the league's first-line stars, off-court trouble is really trouble, can play on the field or really can play.
Against the Magic, Irving once again came up with a "get up and watch the gods play" game, playing 23 minutes in the first half, shooting 14 of 14 three-pointers, 7 of 7 free throws, and 41 points. In the last 25 years, only one player has scored higher than Irving in the first half, and that is Irving's idol Kobe Bryant, who scored 42 points in the first half of the game against the Wizards on March 28, 2003.
"Brother stop!!! Really don't do that. James exclaimed on Twitter, although during the two Cavaliers cooperation, Irving did not provoke old Zhan to be angry, asked for the ball, and asked his friend to enter the coaching staff like old Zhan personal trainer, in short, what James has, I have to have something, don't give me to go, but make a fuss about it, James is quite recognized for Irving's business ability.
Therefore, professional sports are very real, if you are a dish, breathing is wrong, if you are strong, willfulness is fine.
Irving bloomed willfully, adding 19 more points in the second half, and the Magic had already used a three-man bag, but was still pierced by Irving. 8 minutes and 32 seconds before the end of the fourth quarter, Irving hit a three-pointer, the game scored 60, creating a new career single-game scoring record, breaking the Nets' all-time single-game scoring record, the Magic home cheered for Irving, fans shouted "Kyrie", and getting such treatment on the road is the ultimate recognition of strength.
150-108, the Nets won four in a row. Irving 35 minutes 31 shots 20 three-pointers 12 of 8 free throws 13 of 12, 60 points, if he wants to come to a 70+, the single-game scoring ceiling of the players he and Towns have maintained together is also very promising, but Irving did not deliberately pursue this, personal and team history records have been broken, victory is in hand, enough, this is also Irving's willfulness, just as Bryant refused to play in the fourth quarter after 62 points in the third quarter, the Lakers coach was annoyed by his stubbornness, and obviously had a chance to take 70+ Why not rush, Kobe Bryant calmly replied: "Next time, when the team needs it, I will go and get it." ”
A month later, Bryant scored 81 points, which is the offensive explosiveness of super scorers, and you don't know where their limits are.
Counting this game, the Nets have had 3 50+ in the last 4 games, Irving scored 50 points against the Hornets on March 9, Durant scored 53 points against the Knicks on March 14, this time Irving made a whole 60+, the Nets king took turns to throw the king bomb, is this what Harden said "horror moment"?
Maybe there will be such a sound, magic a team at the bottom of the East, playing this kind of opponent to get a high score has nothing to blow. The Magic are indeed the penultimate in the East, but it was this team that forced the 76ers led by Embiid and Harden at home two days ago into overtime, and the "Dengdi" scored 61 points to get through the danger, and Irving single-handedly got it.
Of course, this is by no means to say that Harden is inferior to Irving, a discussion is absolutely impossible, Harden career has 4 games 60+, Irving this is only once, Deng ge is very vocal in scoring explosiveness, but the Nets are strong in Irving's side and Durant who may kill crazy at any time, when they join forces to play the state, the scene does not dare to think.
"When Irving gets into the offensive rhythm, he's extraordinary. If the Nets had a full-bodied lineup, no team would want to touch them, absolutely not. Basketball reporter Vincent Goodwin said.
The Nets are not yet intact, Seth Curry and Ade are still recuperating, when Ben Simmons will return is still unknown, the bigger question is Irving himself, when will he be able to play the home game without vaccination?
The Nets have 9 home and 4 guests in the next 13 regular season games, and one of the 4 away games is to play the Knicks, and Irving can't get on. That is to say, in the case that Irving does not vaccinate and the regulations in New York remain unchanged, Irving can only play 3 games in the regular season, specific to the nets' last 8 games, Irving can only play one.
Considering the divided state of American society for vaccines, Irving's stubbornness has its own reasons, and it is difficult to judge whether it is right or wrong from a perspective other than basketball, but as far as basketball is concerned, irving's talented players, because vaccines can only be "part-time", whether it is for himself, for the team, or for the fans, it is a big loss.
By the time Irving was 50+ for the second time in a week, the pressure had come to the mayor of New York. Of course, now the first Heat in the East, the second Bucks in the East are also on their backs, in case the Nets play a playoff to lock in the seventh or eighth place in the East, how can this first round be rectified?
Deng Ge and the Emperor looked at the third ranking in the east and smiled slightly, or we are witty.
