Chapter 535: 50 points at half time
, the fastest update NBA: the latest chapter of the No. 1 forward!
But in the second quarter, Chris Paul started to exert force after he came on the court.
Under Paul's offensive tandem, he and other Clippers teammates also began to score continuously.
Although the score gap is still widening, at least it didn't let the game be beaten before halftime.
When the second season came to the last minute, Lian Dao scored 2+1 in the double-team of Anthony and Griffin.
After Lian Dao scored this goal, the entire Staples Center fell silent.
As long as Lian Dao made the free throw, Lian Dao would score the 36th point in a single quarter.
The halftime game is not over yet, Lian Dao is about to score 50 points in the Staples Center!
On the other hand, Anthony, who scored 15 points in the first quarter, is now 25 points behind Lian Dao.
If it is normal, Anthony scored 25 points without the end of the half, which is definitely something worth celebrating.
But tonight, Anthony wasn't the slightest bit excited.
On the contrary, looking at Lian Dao's data on the big screen, Anthony looked a little lonely.
"Sickle made free throws and scored 50 points. He was unstoppable tonight."
"The Clippers are 12 points behind the Knicks, but this is not the end. Let us wait and see what kind of wonderful performance Sickle will give next!"
Vinny Del Negro had to call timeout again after Lian Dao scored a free throw.
When a player can still score in the face of a double-team, it means that any double-team tactics are no longer effective for him.
Three-teaming is of course possible, but Lian Dao's passing is not vegetarian.
The three double-teams are basically undefended against other Knicks players, which is equivalent to sending points.
But right now, Vinny Del Negro has no good tactics either.
He himself is not a head coach proficient in defense, otherwise he would not be waived by the Bulls and replaced by Thibodeau.
The only thing he can rely on now is that the Big Three can produce more explosive scoring performance than Lian Dao and the Knicks.
In fact, from the beginning of the game, Vinny Del Negro had only one way to attack.
Defense has never been the Clippers' forte.
However, when the Big Three of the Clippers walked off the court, their eyes were lonely.
You know they are the Big Three!
Although they walked together, there was not as much criticism as the Big Three of the Heat, but they were also under a lot of pressure on each other.
Two superstars + one all-star, unexpectedly unable to stop the impact of Lian Dao alone, there is nothing more shocking than this.
This is still a situation where Stoudemire and Holiday didn't exert their strength.
What if other Knicks players exert their strength?
Is it true that in the second half, the Clippers will be carried away in one wave?
It was the first time he played against the defending champion this season, and he gave him a thunderous blow right away!
With 50 points in the half, Lian Dao's devastating firepower attack, the confidence of the Clippers' Big Three is being destroyed by Lian Dao.
Among them, Anthony was the hardest hit. Anthony knew that he was powerless to stop Lian Dao today.

As for scoring against Lian Dao? Anthony also has no confidence.
To be honest, he was able to score 10 points under the defense of Tony Allen, which is not easy.
However, 10 points in a single quarter, compared with Lian Dao's 36 points in a single quarter, is simply a world of difference.
As for the previous fantasy of tying his scoring record of 33 points in a single quarter.
Even the idea of breaking Lian Dao's record of scoring 40 points in a single quarter is even more unthinkable.
On the other hand, Lian Dao was chatting and laughing with his teammates with a relaxed face. He scored 50 points before the end of the half game. Of course he was relaxed.
Moreover, because of the defensive end, Tony Allen helped him share a lot of pressure.
Lian Dao, who is only committed to the offensive end, doesn't feel that he is exhausted.
He still has enough strength to contribute in the second half to a performance that is not lost in the first half.
Lian Dao did not play at the last minute, and D'Antoni asked Lian Dao to rest off the court.
He needs Lian Dao to stay fit until the second half, not just for the win.
In D'Antoni's view, the victory of this game is already within reach.
The newly formed "Galaxy Battleship" is still too immature, including flaws in the lineup.
He kept Lian Dao in good shape, hoping that Lian Dao could break the scoring record at the Staples Center.
That's right, Kobe's scoring record of 81 points!
D'Antoni knows that Lian Dao has this ability, he just lacks an opportunity, and tonight, D'Antoni feels that the opportunity is just right.
And most importantly, it's at the Staples Center!
…
At the end of the halftime game, the wonderful scoring moments between the two teams were replayed over the Staples Center.
Next to it is the data of the stars of the two teams. Lian Dao has 50 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists, and Anthony has 28 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.
If this is the end of the game and this is the full-court data of the two, this will not cause many people to be surprised.
Because such data comes from the two of them, it is not surprising that they have such strength.
However, this is not the data of the whole game, but the data scored by the two at half time, and the game will have a full half time to end.
Now everyone does not know what will happen to the data of both parties next.
Everyone expected the collision between the two teams, it must be Mars hitting the earth.
However, no one expected that Lian Dao scored 50 points at halftime.
Lian Dao's halftime record of 50 points is second only to Chamberlain's halftime record of 59 points even in NBA history.
But Chamberlain's 59 points belong to the record of the NBA's ancient times.
For now, Lian Dao's 50 points in the half is not inferior to Chamberlain's 59 points in the half, and it is even worse in terms of difficulty.
The most important thing is that Lian Dao's 50 points in the half were scored against the Clippers' Big Three, and the gold content in them was even better.
In this game, it was Lian Dao's 50 points in the half that caused a lot of trouble for the Clippers.
With the Clippers' Big Three playing well, the Knicks still led by 12 points at halftime.
Chris Paul had 15 points and 7 assists, Bregg Griffin had 12 points and 8 rebounds, and Anthony had 28 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists.
The Big Three scored 55 points in half an occasion. Such a Clippers absolutely cannot be said to be not good.
But they fell behind by 12 points, which is the most frustrating thing for the Big Three.
No one in the Clippers could defend against Lian Dao, so D'Antoni completely released Lian Dao and let him attack with full firepower to the end.
When a player's state explodes, it is a waste to spread the firepower to other players.
Moreover, all teammates also expect him to break Kobe's 81-point scoring record in this game.
Lian Dao's performance lived up to expectations.
It's not like he didn't score high before.
For example, he scored 74 points in a single game against the Thunder last season and 71 points in a single game against the Timberwolves.
But he was a little luck away from breaking the 81-point scoring record.
In the game against the Thunder, the opponent surrendered prematurely, and Lian Dao didn't want to waste time to score points.
Against the Timberwolves, Lian Dao broke out in the last quarter, and finally turned defeat into victory.
But today, facing the Clippers' Big Three in excellent condition, Lian Dao really hopes to break Kobe's single-game scoring record of 81 points.
…
Intermission, locker room.
D'Antoni also reminded Lian Dao of the records.
However, Lian Dao himself did not care too much.
He scored 50 points in the half, not for scoring, but for winning the game.
Lian Dao can't do the kind of thing that puts the team's victory in vain for the sake of scoring.
"In the second half, I will continue the firepower of the second quarter, but if the opponent surrenders, I don't want to use the data in garbage time, it doesn't make much sense."
"However, if you are only one or two points away from the record, you can still get the record before leaving!"
Lian Dao was very relaxed, and he was full of confidence in the second half of the game.
The league's superteams The Knicks have basically played each other.
As the core of the Knicks' offense, Lian Dao will encounter the strictest and most merciless defense in every game.
Three-teams will be staged in every game, and double-teams have become commonplace.
However, Lian Dao has long been used to such tight defense.
The Clippers, among the super teams that Lian Dao played against, had the weakest defense.
This also caused Lian Dao's offensive end to give and take.
In fact, it is not impossible for Lian Dao to break the scoring record of 81 points, the key is whether it is necessary to do so.
But soon, back in the second half, the Clippers' counterattack resolved Lian Dao's doubts.
