Chapter 302 Reactions from all parties
Seeing this scene, even the opponent's head coach Paul Westphal was a little dumbfounded.
When Qingqing paused just now, he made so many preparations, but it was all in vain?
At that time, he asked Wang Hao to give up attacking and pass more passes.
Although the purpose of doing this is to win, it will definitely make Wang Hao a little unhappy.
A great record is about to be born, and no one can resist such a temptation.
If it weren't for winning and breaking records instead of breaking records and losing, Wang Hao would have refused.
As a result, after a long time, Paul Westphal became a villain.
After all, as the opponent's head coach, he is already giving big gifts at this time to help break the record.
As the head coach, Paul Westphal actually asked Wang Hao to pass the ball.
"Damn it, could that guy be eyeing my position?"
For a moment, Paul Westphal really felt a sense of crisis about his position as head coach.
However, when he thought about Don Cheney's coaching record, he felt relaxed.
"Kurt, please wake up, do you know about the double team?"
Hearing this, Kurt Thomas really wanted to hit Don Cheney's head with the basketball in his hand.
Because he is really a little dizzy. Do you want me to mark him or double-team him?
Obviously, the Knicks were still confused. In the next game, they continued to make mistakes.
And mistakes, for the Sonics, are points!
A quick counterattack that overwhelmed the whole game was carried out in the last quarter, and the SuperSonics continued to perform wonderful offensive and defensive transitions.
This was even more true for Wang Hao, who hit another three-pointer and made a free throw that caused a foul.
"Beep!"
The referee's whistle sounded, and Kurt Thomas was filled with helplessness.
This time, he followed the arrangement of head coach Don Cheney and double-teamed more actively.
What I didn't expect was that Wang Hao, who always passed the ball when double-teamed, chose to be strong this time.
A pull rod that flew into the penalty area forced Kurt Thomas to foul, and the referee showed no mercy.
Kurt Thomas held his head helplessly. He even forgot to complain to the referee.
Not only was he a little dizzy by his head coach, but he also knew how to face this guy.
He scored again and again, and he really didn't know how to defend.
"60 points!"
That's right, Wang Hao had already scored 60 points before this, becoming the only away player in NBA history to score 60 points in Madison Square Garden.
This achievement even surpasses Jordan!
More importantly, he also made two free throws.
In fact, this is also the first time in Wang Hao's career that he has scored 60 points or more. He never expected that he would appear on such a night.
Madison Square Garden Arena, Christmas Day game...
Not just Kurt Thomas, but all the Knicks players have the same expression now.
Not only did they have to watch Wang Hao set a new record, but they also had to swallow the bitter fruit of failure in the game.
They didn't win the game or limit Wang Hao.
It's not that the Knicks players lost confidence due to back-up play, but that the outcome of the game has basically been determined.
96:88
There was a gap of 8 points, and Wang Hao still had two free throw opportunities.
Just relying on Wang Hao's touch today, there is basically no problem with these two free throws.
And this means that the point difference has reached double digits.
More importantly, there are only 2 minutes and 34 seconds left before the end of the game, leaving little time for the Knicks.
It's not impossible to create a miracle in 2 and a half minutes.
However, the reason why a miracle is a miracle is because the probability of it happening is very small.
And more importantly, the Knicks have lost their nerve.
Wang Hao finally stepped to the free throw line, and at this time, he was greeted not with boos, but with cheers.
"MVP, MVP..."
Not just applause, but also such sounds.
I have to say, if you are not a Knicks player, New York fans are actually pretty good.
Therefore, Wang Hao will not join the Knicks unless absolutely necessary.
The referee handed the ball to Wang Hao. After receiving the ball, Wang Hao took a deep breath and then shot steadily.
60 points. To be honest, even Wang Hao was a little excited.
However, at this point in the game, with high concentration, the joyful mood did not last long.
What's more, it is already his third NBA season, Wang Hao is no longer a rookie, he knows how to adjust his mentality.
"Whoosh!"
There weren't too many surprises, and the basketball hit the ball steadily.
61 points, which also surpassed Bernard King's record and the highest scoring record at Madison Square Garden.
That's right, it used to be the record for away players, but now, it's everyone's record.
As early as 1984, also in the Christmas game, Knicks player Bernard King had performed such a scoring performance.
However, that game ended with the New Jersey Nets winning.
It's just that today, it's very likely that the Knicks will lose. However, there are some differences for the two record creators.
The first free throw set a new record, but Wang Hao did not have any big emotional fluctuations.
The second free throw hit again, the score difference between the two sides reached double digits, and the outcome was basically no longer in suspense.
This is also true, because even the Knicks players have given up.
In the next offense, Mark Jackson was a little slow, dribbling slowly through half the court.
And Alan Houston, he had even lost the idea of running again and stood there waiting for the ball.
As for the madman, I don't know what he was thinking. He had no idea of tactics and just shot from outside the three-point line.
It's a pity that he is facing Wang Hao!
Wang Hao reacted very quickly and stretched out a hand, cutting the ball directly without waiting for the madman to take action.
When he took control of the ball, Gary Payton had already rushed to the Knicks' half.
Among the Knicks, only Mark Jackson has given up and is slowly chasing back.
…
When there was less than 1 minute left in the game, Paul Westphal requested a substitution.
Wang Hao was substituted.
"MVP, MVP..."
"King, king..."
Even Wang Hao didn't expect that he could enjoy such treatment in an away game.
However, if you think about it carefully, with such a performance, he actually deserves such cheers.
62 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 steals. This performance can conquer all away fans.
What's more important is that Wang Hao achieved this score in only 36 shots.
Made 23 of 36 shots, 6 of 11 three-pointers, 10 of 11 free throws, and a shooting rate of 64%.
"Oh, Charles, how is it? You lost again, are you finally convinced?"
Convinced?
Charles Barkley naturally wanted to deny it at the first moment, but how should he say this?
Faced with Wang Hao's performance, he simply couldn't deny it.
To be continued...
