I am so Accurate

Chapter 446 Sun Hao only scored 43 points

And a very interesting thing happened on this day. Some netizens were looking for the child who was given shoes by Sun Hao on Facebook and wanted to buy it at a high price.

On the night of 81 points, everything on Sun Hao will become a valuable and meaningful souvenir, and sneakers are naturally the top priority.

The Internet at this time was much more developed than when Sun Hao first entered the NBA, and the child's identity was quickly exposed.

Then people quickly discovered that this kid who looked slightly like a migrant worker was Kevin Durant.

At this time, Durant was already well-known in the United States. After transferring to National Christian College, he also had his most brilliant performance in his senior year, averaging 26.2 points and 11.2 rebounds per game.

Facts have proved that those slaps from Durant's mother were very effective, and with Sun Hao's positive stimulation, his performance was even better than during the same period in history.

In the analysis of major media such as ESPN and TNT, he is already the No. 1 high school forward in the United States.

Sun Hao gave him the sneakers, and the netizen finally gave up on the purchase.

Because Durant can foresee that he will play a big role in the NBA in the future, this pair of sneakers will become another legend.

Of course, the impact of Sun Hao's 81 points goes far beyond that.

The total sales of Sun Hao's new sun4 series of sneakers increased by 10% overnight.

Especially in China, most specialty stores are sold out overnight.

Don’t underestimate the enthusiasm of the Chinese people. Their enthusiasm for buying Apple phones has been so exaggerated in history. The impact of the 81-minute night is absolutely reasonable.

Moreover, Adidas’ sense of smell is also sensitive enough. After discussing with Sun Hao’s team, it has been announced that limited edition commemorative sneakers with “81 points” will be released later.

After seeing this news, many people in the sneaker industry predicted that these would be the "most difficult to buy sneakers in the new century."

Obviously, some things have a price but not a market, and some things are just the opposite, having a market but no price.

You may not believe it, but after Adidas announced the news, Sun Hao received many messages from Gu Yi, all of which were about some NBA players wanting to buy commemorative sneakers at high prices through him.

Many people know that Tucker is a well-known shoe king. In fact, many NBA players have a habit of collecting sneakers.

All of this can be called the "81-point effect."

Sun Hao could predict most of these effects, but what happened the next day was beyond his expectation.

On this day's training session, Sun Hao ended the training amidst the cheers from his teammates such as "Mr. 81 Points" and other new nicknames. When he returned to the locker room, he received a call from Gu Yi.

He thought it was the same as the previous text message, asking for sneakers, but after getting through, he found out that it was not, but that Durant wanted to meet him.

For a celebrity like Sun Hao, only a small number of people would be called out on the phone, and Durant also left Gu Yi's contact information.

Sun Hao was curious about what Durant wanted to do with him at this time.

Didn't you really ask him for bath water?

He asked Gu Yi to make an appointment.

When the agreed time came, he and Durant met at the coffee shop.

The first words Durant spoke made him extremely surprised.

"I want to enter the draft next year."

Sun Hao thought he heard wrongly.

Durant is now a senior in high school. What does it mean that he will participate in the draft next year as a high school student? !

This is not the same as in history!

Historically, Durant only participated in the NBA draft after one year of college.

"Why?"

Sun Hao asked Durant.

"I want to give my mother a good life earlier. I think I have the opportunity to achieve as a high school student like LeBron James and Dwight Howard. I want to play in the NBA earlier, like your 81 points. Remembered by all.”

Although Durant was sullen, he explained all the reasons why he chose to participate in the election in advance.

And the reasons are compelling.

Durant's mother has paid too much for him, and the NCAA is not like the NBA because he cannot accept endorsements. No matter how talented he is and how well he plays, he cannot make his mother's life better in college.

The success stories of James and Howard are also at the forefront, and maybe it's because there are already enough success stories of top high school players, even though Sun Hao reluctantly didn't mention Kobe.

And it may be the reason why Durant is looking for Sun Hao now. The collateral impact of 81 points makes Durant's yearning for the NBA stronger than ever before.

Sun Hao did not speak immediately.

In fact, he doesn't quite agree with Durant's early candidacy.

The reason is that for Durant in history, even after entering the NBA as a freshman, it took him two years to truly adapt to the intensity of the NBA and realize his talents.

If you participate in the draft a year in advance, not to mention whether your draft prospects will be worse, the time to adapt to the NBA will most likely be longer, and there is even a certain possibility that you will not be able to adapt to the NBA.

Don't think this is alarmist. There are many cases in history of those who failed to enter the NBA as high school students. It is just because of their failure that people did not pay attention to and explore how good their high schools were.

"It may take you more time to adapt to the league, or you may not even be able to adapt. Will you still choose to move forward?"

Sun Hao opened his mouth to confirm.

Durant nodded seriously and firmly.

Mendous people tend to move forward easily in doing things.

Sun Hao did not persuade Durant anymore. Except for Yi Jianlian, he would only give some suggestions to others and would not let others do what he wanted. The same was true for Yao Ming before.

"I'll give you a plan. You declare your candidacy and then look at the draft prospects. If the prospects are not good, you withdraw from the draft and attend college for a year before running for the draft. How about that?"

Sun Hao gave his own advice, which was also relatively mature.

Durant nodded.

He would not have thought of this if he had never participated in the draft. What Sun Hao said was very reasonable advice.

After finishing talking to Durant, Sun Hao was also a little curious.

Historically speaking, Durant and Oden were close friends for a while when they were drafted, and many people believed that "Oden would be the No. 1 pick even if they were selected 10,000 times."

Well, now, if Durant really participates in the draft early, this topic will disappear, but another more attractive topic is what kind of pick Durant will get in the 2006 draft.

The quality of the 2006 draft is average. Does Durant have a chance to become another high school student No. 1 pick?

It would be interesting if that were the case.

Moreover, the Sonics have not performed poorly this season, and it is unlikely that they will go there again. Where the "Reaper" will go is also very worthy of attention.

What needs to be mentioned here is that in history, in 2005, the NBA introduced measures to prohibit high school students from participating in the draft, but now there are no relevant regulations.

I don’t know if the NBA pie is expanding much faster than in history, and Stern doesn’t want to interrupt it.

On the third day after the 81-point night, it was still an off-season for the Lakers, but the topic of 81-point discussion among fans continued to be hot.

And many people also looked at another person, Kobe.

Unlike Sun Hao, Kobe Bryant has already said what he means once. Fans can guess that he will respond to him even if they did not have the same pre-game interview as before.

And what’s very interesting to say is that the Mavericks’ opponent is also the Bucks.

Don't be surprised, road trips are common in NBA game schedules.

At the end of the game, the Mavericks narrowly defeated the Bucks 103-97.

Kobe shot 15 of 35 from the field and scored 41 points.

It can be seen from the number of shots that Kobe does have the idea of ​​​​getting high scores again.

But as Barkley said, one of the impacts of Sun Hao's 81 points is that opponents will no longer let these people score high scores.

What's more, the Bucks were just scored 81 points by Sun Hao, and there were many scenes of double-teaming Kobe in the game.

Coupled with Kobe's style of play that doesn't like passing the ball, the low efficiency value is reasonable.

Of course, there is another point. After all, this Mavericks team is completely different from the Lakers team in history. Apart from Kobe, that Lakers team only had Odom.

But this Mavericks team, in addition to Kobe Bryant, Nowitzki, Josh Howard, Raja Bell, and even other role players, Van Exel, Harris, Daniels, the strength of these people is also Far better than that Lakers team.

Based on these circumstances, it is no longer realistic for Kobe to score 81 points like he did in history.

Barkley's statement that "81 points only come once" was not just a whim.

However, fans only pay attention to Kobe by the way. What fans really care about is how many points Sun Hao will score in the next game.

Nelson, the former head coach of the Warriors and Sun Hao's former mentor, could say, "If you want to use King Kong to defend Sun, you will use all the methods you know to defend against Sun."

In the eyes of fans with such expectation, the game between the Lakers and Warriors started at Oracle Arena the next day.

After Nelson returned to coaching, the Warriors played a different style than last season. The team's offense was obviously more organized, and it was not the so-called victory in chaos.

The core of the team, Baron Davis, averaged 23 points per game, the highest score of his career.

The "Golden State Band" in history also qualified early after Nelson made his early comeback.

This game is also quite interesting to watch.

Moreover, as Sun Hao's former mentor, Nelson knew Sun Hao's offensive skills very well and used a very targeted defense in the opening game.

However, Sun Hao seemed to have expected this, and changed his style of full output at the beginning of the past few games to organize the team.

But just like Barkley's complaints in the last game, after relying too much on Sun Hao, the rest of the Lakers seemed to have forgotten how to attack.

Although the Lakers' defense played well, they still trailed the Warriors by 10 points, 21-31, after the first quarter.

So by comparison, in history, except for Kobe Bryant, the Lakers in the 2005-2006 season were not as bad as expected. They just gradually became unable to play without the ball.

Take the most complained-about "Reaper" Parker. In his two seasons with the Lakers, he averaged 11+3+3.5 per game, shot 44% from the field and 36% from three-point range. This is not considered "unbeatable" in any way. NBA” point.

Take the most criticized insiders, Chris Mihm, Brian Cook, and Kwame Brown. Each of them has a shooting rate of over 50%.

Data can sometimes lie, but not all data can lie.

When it came to the transition period between substitutes, the Lakers' offense had not improved yet, so Sun Hao had no choice but to start scoring mode again.

It was at this time that Old Nelson discovered something. The Sun Hao in front of him was much better than the Sun Hao he knew.

Not to mention the improvement in personal strength, the bonus of the MVP aura, and the new weapons for back-up play, these are all things Nelson doesn't know about.

The result is that although Nelson used all his defensive moves, for a coach who is not good at defense and a team who is not good at defense, it is still difficult to guard against Sun Hao who is stronger than Nelson remembers. "I can't do it".

In the end, Sun Hao still scored 51 points, helping the Lakers reverse the Warriors and win.

While helping the Lakers achieve three consecutive victories, Sun Hao also completed the feat of scoring 40+ points in 6 consecutive games!

At the press conference after the game, Nelson smiled bitterly and shook his head in front of reporters at his former lover.

"We sent out King Kong, Superman, and Batman, but we still couldn't stop him. We need more people."

Old Neil's words made the reporters laugh.

But this also exposed Nelson's preferences. He is a DC fan.

If he were a Marvel fan, he would say that Sun Hao is Thanos.

However, counting Sun Hao's scores after O'Neal's absence, 45, 43, 40, 62, 81, 51, 40+ in these 6 games, only Thanos can describe it.

"The thing I'm most concerned about when watching the NBA right now is how many points Sun can score."

One fan's comment on Facebook received countless likes.

This has become a major scene this season, and it is also a microcosm of the concentrated explosion of scoring among NBA scorers this season.

Sun Hao's personal influence reached a new peak after 81 points in this game.

In a sense, these 81 points are more useful than any previous championships he won.

One of the most direct evidences is that in the 2006 All-Star first-round voting that was released at the end of December, Sun Hao not only became the top vote-getter without any doubt, but he also received a record-breaking 1.2 million votes in the first round. vote!

Sun Hao's 81 points are a big sign of "exploding in the contract year".

Time came to 2006, the Lakers ushered in the first game in January, their opponent was the Denver Nuggets.

The Nuggets' lineup has not changed much compared to the past two years.

But just like the Spurs, a stable lineup has improved their understanding of each other.

What's more important is James' performance. In his third season, he has averaged 30.4 points, 7.7 rebounds and 7.1 assists per game. This is enough performance to enter the MVP discussion.

And they are also direct beneficiaries of the new ranking rules.

The Timberwolves in the same division as them are declining, the Trail Blazers and Jazz are rebuilding, and their only competitor, the Sonics, has experienced an inexplicable sharp decline in performance this season.

They are now firmly in first place in the Western Conference, and are also ranked third in the Western Conference under the new rules.

The Nuggets' head coach is still George Karl.

Karl's defensive level is on par with Nelson's, but the Nuggets' overall defensive quality is still far behind the Warriors.

And knowing that the rest of the Lakers were in poor condition, the Nuggets were double-teaming Sun Hao throughout the game, which also greatly affected the Lakers' offense.

In the end, although Sun Hao still scored 43 points based on his personal ability, the Lakers lost to the Nuggets 96-103, ending their three-game winning streak.

For the Nuggets, James scored a huge triple-double with 33 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.

After the game, James sat emotionally on the sidelines with red circles under his eyes.

Others may not understand him, but only he knows the special significance of this game.

Although it was only a regular season game, this was the first time he defeated Sun Hao since entering the NBA.

However, the focus of fans is not on this, because TNT's news report after the game made Sun Hao once again the focus of heated discussion:

"Sun Hao only scored 43 points, the Lakers lost to the Nuggets".
