1124. Kobe's Challenge Manifesto! (4th Update)
It's not just the fans who see it, the NBA players see it too.
It's no secret that the Grizzlies intend to cultivate Sun Ce in the way the 76ers cultivated Iverson, Sun Ce has become like that, and he has not seen the Grizzlies coach in charge, and the Grizzlies' lineup is indeed suitable for cultivating players in this way.
There is also Sun Ce's size advantage, which allows him to play easier than Iverson, not that he is stronger than Iverson, but he can shoot more easily.
With the successful example of Durant, Sun Ce's shooting talent is good and he is improving much faster than Durant, which even ESPN has to recognize.
Sun Ce's progress is beyond imagination!
However, Sun Ce's first place in the scoring list was quickly lost.
On the night of the 19th, Kobe Bryant scored 49 points against the Clippers, overtaking Sun Ce and Anthony, and jumped directly from third to first place in the scoring list.
In this Los Angeles derby, Sun Ce watched the live broadcast with Zu Ge and Lily Collins at home, and after Kobe surpassed his Sun Someone's average points per game, Sun Ce said to the two girls lightly that he didn't care...... But I scolded MMP frantically in my heart, how old are you, and you are still fighting with us these young years!
When he was interviewed and communicated with others, Sun Ce said that he didn't care about the data king, but he cared very much in his heart! Even if I know that it is difficult for me to win the scoring title, I comfort myself that the future is still long, don't worry now, but I still care a lot!
Just like a triple-double against the Turtles, when he played the Knicks and the Bobcats, Sun Ce would think that Westbrook was already much ahead of him.
After beating the Clippers 119-111, Bryant gave an on-site interview: "I seem to be at the top of the scoring list again? It's a familiar scene, like going back to 2006, when I won the scoring title for the first time, and there were two opponents fighting me for the top spot in the scoring rankings in the new season, one was Carmelo and the other was Gilbert, and this time Carmelo was still there, but the other opponent became the lord.
I kept telling myself that I shouldn't compete with these young players anymore for the rankings, but helplessly, they still can't seem to beat me, and it hurts me and I've let them go.
To give them some motivation, I decided to challenge them!
The position of the scoring champion is here, if you have the guts, come ahead!
Lord, Carmelo, let me feel a little pressure, don't let me down! ”
……
……
After scoring 49 points and returning to the top of the scoring list, Kobe Bryant challenged the top scorer in the league!
Although Kobe Bryant only mentioned the names of Sun Ce, Anthony, and Durant, the three names mentioned may not be the angriest and unhappy among the scorers, but the most unhappy may be the top scorers who are not named!
Durant, in particular, should be the most unhappy in the eyes of the media and fans.
Since the beginning of the new century, there have been three consecutive scoring champions, one is Kobe, one is Iverson, and the other is Durant.
However, Durant was actually ignored!
Durant hasn't reacted to how he was ignored, just watching it for fun, wanting to see how Sun Ce and Anthony will respond, especially Sun Ce, will he insist on shooting more regardless of the record?
Twenty-three or four successful shots per game is already the limit of Sun Ce's style of play, unless it breaks out, but with Sun Ce's efficiency, it is too difficult to compete with Kobe and Anthony for a long time.
But at this time, the media began to hype the topic of Durant being ignored by Kobe, and instead made Durant the focus of heated discussions!
This was not Durant's expectation!
……
On the other hand, on the morning of November 20, the day after Kobe Bryant's challenge, in the pregame meeting held by the Grizzlies for tonight's game with the Clippers, Coach Hollins seriously discussed the matter of "Kobe's challenge", worried about Sun Ce's head.
Not only Coach Hollins, but everyone in the conference room felt that Sun Ce was easy to get up.
However, Sun Ce said very calmly: "I think that guy is deliberately trying to stimulate me to play irrationally, not only me, but he is also stimulating Durant, wanting to destroy the current development momentum of our two young teams and the Thunder, and he will have the opportunity to concentrate on dealing with the Spurs and the Mavericks." ”
The coaching staff and teammates didn't expect Sun Ce to be so rational to analyze why Kobe Bryant did this, they didn't think about it, some teammates didn't care, some supported Sun Ce to compete with Kobe for the three-point king, and some were trying to persuade Sun Ce not to do Kobe Bryant, but because of Sun Ce's trouble-loving character, they didn't think of a way.
In fact, Sun Ce was also very unhappy with Kobe Bryant's challenge at the beginning, this old man, after getting Paul, he was terrible, he had already won one more assist king and wanted to have another one, it was shameless, can he hug Paul's thighs well?
But after arranging Kobe, Sun Ce felt that this was not in line with Kobe's character, whatever Kobe wanted to fight for, he would fight first, and then come out and pretend to be forced if he won, and if he couldn't fight, he would hide in the corner alone and lick his wounds.
After telling the two girls about their confusion, the evaluation of the two "outsiders" made Sun Ce see the clues.
Kobe Bryant is clearly in the dark against him and Durant, obviously, Kobe is very jealous of their Grizzlies and the Thunder in the Northwest Division, and regards them as the biggest obstacle on the road to the championship.
So they came up with such an idea to provoke the impetuousness of these two new generation of players who have not yet completely settled down.
And Anthony was mentioned by name...... Just pulled in as a cover-up, maybe Kobe Bryant didn't even think about competing for the scoring title, he just wanted to muddy the waters!
Sun Ce's analysis made the coaches and teammates feel very reasonable, and seeing Sun Ce's calm analysis, many people settled down.
But there are still people who feel that something is wrong, Coach Hollins looked at Sun Ce, who was analyzing Kobe Bryant who was talking about it just now, and just felt that something was wrong.
Coach Hollins suddenly reacted and asked, "Noah, would you want to fight for the scoring title, or refuse, or ignore it?" ”
Sun Ce originally wanted to refuse and compete for his rebounding king and block king, but now he is third in the rebounding list and second in the blocking list, and he still has a chance to fight.
But at this time, the system prompt suddenly came!
"Kobe Bryant openly launched a scoring title challenge to the host, and the entire basketball world is waiting for the host's response, special event: Black Mamba's challenge is triggered."
"Black Mamba's Challenge (*):
The goal: to snatch the 2012-2013 regular season scoring title from the top scorers.
Event Reward: New Century Scoring Champion Random Player Characteristics Conversion Skill Card.
This event is optional, does the host accept it?
Note: This event is unique, and rejection cannot be triggered again. ”
Sun Ce was stunned by the sudden incident, but the coaching staff and teammates saw that Sun Ce didn't answer, and thousands of alpacas ran over in their hearts!
