NBA: Opening breaks record

Chapter 245 Is it difficult to score ten three-pointers in a single game?

No one will ever know why the lights in the Smoothie King Arena suddenly went out.

Moreover, no one knew whether Meng Hua's shot made or not.

When the arena was illuminated again, Meng Hua was in the backcourt, leaning on the basketball hoop, thinking about life.

He quickly walked to the frontcourt and sent a sideline kick with a wry smile. He clearly heard the sound of a goal, but at that time, the lights were dark and the monitoring must have been completely black, so there was no way to prove it.

In the dark, everything has long been determined.

The two sides resumed fighting.

Meng Hua could no longer get back the unstoppable touch he had before, so Vogel simply replaced him in advance to rest.

He debuted after more than a month, scored 12 points in a single quarter, and had steals and blocks on the defensive end everywhere.

Meng Hua's report card is dazzling enough.

Without Meng Hua's tugging and thick eyebrows off the court, the Lakers had a very difficult time offensively, because Warcraft didn't have three-pointers and couldn't beat Varan inside, so he could only play a defensive role.

Without Meng Hua's lock on the outside, the Pelicans' outside shots all played All-Star performances.

Vogel was so worried that he wanted to take the risk of sending out thick eyebrows several times, but finally held back.

Warcraft defended very well, the crux of the team does not seem to be inside.

During the period when Meng Hua was off the court, James carried the team alone, and no one scored except for him. On the other hand, Jones and Hayes were extremely active for the Pelicans, taking care of the rest of the scoring.

At the end of the first quarter, the Lakers trailed the Pelicans by 22 points 29-7.

Meng Hua made 4 three-pointers and scored 12 points. James scored 8 points from inside and outside. James assisted Monk with the other two points.

For the Pelicans, five players scored. Varan scored 9 points, McCollum scored 6 points, and the other three scored 4 points.

Compared with the Lakers, the Pelicans played more reasonably, more balanced and more energetic.

So during the break, the Pelicans are still actively communicating, because in the 7 points they won, they all contributed and everyone scored.

Goals, only goals can maintain a strong fighting spirit.

Because the nature of basketball is that you score more points than your opponent.

How can we win?If the score exceeds [-], while restricting the opponent's score to no more than [-], the team will definitely win.

This one hundred can be replaced with any number.

Smith: "Meng Hua, a rookie, still has a lot to learn. When he comes back from an unexpected situation, his hand feeling will no longer be there. If his physical strength hits a bottleneck, it will be even worse for him."

O'Neill: "Sometimes the feel is bad, and it may not be related to the lights out of the arena."

Barkley stood on O'Neill's side: "I support you, you can't force the connection between these two things, I can't say he is afraid of me after I sneezed."

Smith smiled badly and asked, "You two think the Lakers will win now, right?"

O'Neal shook his head: "I don't think so, but Meng Hua will definitely perform well. We all saw that he handed in a beautiful report card in the first quarter and scored the highest points of the two teams."

He glanced at Smith, and said again: "It doesn't matter whether he can continue in the second quarter, this first quarter, you have to admit that he played well."

Smith glanced at the statistics: "James..."

"No, no, it has nothing to do with James. The Lakers were pulled away after he left the court. Don't say that James played better than him." O'Neal interrupted him mercilessly.

Smith spread his hands: "Well, what you say is what you say, I won't say it again, but my point of view is the same as before the start of the game."

If he said no more, he did not say less, at least he still expressed his point of view.

After rectifying the troops and horses, the two armies resumed the battle, and they were all lineups with a mix of main players and substitutes.

For the Lakers, Vogel let James rest and sent Meng Hua and Westbrook's double backcourt.

The Pelicans sent Graham.

In the locker room before the game, Graham boasted that he would lock Meng Hua, but the head coach gave him a chance.

Meng Hua didn't hold the ball, but Graham was like a mad dog, constantly harassing and confronting.

Maybe it was because he was afraid of Meng Hua's three-pointer, or maybe it was to fulfill the pre-match rhetoric.

The off-ball matchup between the two was brilliant, and the fans applauded Graham one after another.

Westbrook played singles, passed the defender in one step, and rushed to the penalty area.

Varane rested off the court, and Hayes was guarding the basket.He stretched out his sharp claws and grabbed Westbrook.He went crazy, even beat his girlfriend, so naturally he wouldn't feel sorry for her.

The strong wind hit his face, and Wei Shao in the air felt that his whole body was shrouded under the opponent's Five Fingers Mountain.

At the critical moment, he twisted his butt left and right, braked urgently, retracted his arm, and passed it to Rivers who was following him.

Rivers received the ball and broke through with the explosive package. He is a player who plays with his brain, and he must resolutely kill the inside line at this time.

Hayes took off again, and Rivers succeeded in a layup against medium and high difficulty.

beep!
The referee blows the whistle.

Meng Hua and Graham were whistled for fouls on both sides.

In order to compete for this possible rebound, the two of them blocked their positions too much, and the referee had to whistle to warn them.

Although this does not affect the possession of the ball, the referee has made his attitude clear. I have already paid attention to you, so be careful.

Unsurprisingly, this penalty earned Meng Hua another boo.

Some viewers also noticed that the Huaxia guy came back and started to spray him.

The fat fans, who had lost the meaning of watching the game before, also came back to life, and continued to swear at Meng Hua, angrily brushing up their presence.

He scolded nothing new, and his eloquence was not good, but everyone around him felt refreshed, except Thalia.

She really wanted to speak on the platform, saying that the quality of the fans was poor, but she turned around and thought, there is only one fly like this, and you can't blame a city because of this one.

Meng Hua and Graham were also competing with each other, and their eyes had already met.

Graham is not a good stubble either. Although he is a substitute, he is fully capable of playing the main force, and he is also very young.

Originally, it was Westbrook and the matchup, but Meng Hua and him got stuck and stood in front of him.

"Huaxia guy, it's great to be able to defend against Varan? I'll kill you with a three-point shot." When it comes to three-point shooting, Graham is also very confident. As early as the Hornets, he scored 10 three-pointers in a single game.

Not to be outdone, Meng Hua replied coldly, "You little substitute, did you score a three-pointer just now?"

Graham snorted coldly and stretched out his palms: "My record is 10 three-pointers in a single game, can you do it?"

When he mentioned 10 three-pointers, Meng Hua's heart skipped a beat. The system's task was to score 10 three-pointers in a single game, but unfortunately he was unable to complete it.

If he had enough shots, it wouldn't be too difficult for him to score 10 three-pointers, but he didn't.

But in this game, he has already scored 4 goals, and he should have hope to complete the task of the game.

I thought it was difficult to score 10 three-pointers, but since Graham was provocative, of course he refused to admit it.

"I'm the main force, and I've scored more than 50 points, can you do it?"

Meng Hua replied lightly, you are a substitute, where do you have the courage to provoke blindly?
Graham's face turned red. What he said, if he challenged a monster with no three-point range, even if he challenged Westbrook, who was inaccurate with three-point range, it would be effective.

If you use it to provoke Meng Hua, you can only ask for trouble.

It’s like you’re on Mount Everest, you’re showing off like crazy, and you find out your opponent is live-streaming from Mount Olympus.
