Chapter 885 Mr. 60 Points

When An Luo stood at the free throw line, the fans in the AT&T Center Arena gave him the loudest booing.

It is actually quite normal to get booed in the away game, especially for those star players, the better they perform, the louder the opponent's booed.This is actually a recognition of the player's strength and status.Those little-known players who want to be booed away are not eligible.After all, who knows you?
But things are not quite right now.The fans looked a little outraged, and the boos even included curses one after another.Generally speaking, the regular season doesn't make fans feel too excited, even if their team loses the game, it doesn't make the fans angry.Unless it was the Yellow-Green War, Cavalry War, Thunder Yong War and this season's Los Angeles Derby, which had many grievances and hatreds.But obviously, the current Spurs and Thunder don't have that kind of relationship.

The instigator of this situation was An Luo himself.In fact, if An Luo rushed to the penalty area and caused a foul by the Spurs players and stood on the free throw line, the boos of the fans at the scene might not be so loud.But it is really not so easy for him to get the fans' approval by using this way of fouling to get free throws.

Although the league's style of play has undergone many changes and reduced many physical confrontations, both players and fans still have a better impression of that tough style of play.In fact, people like Harden who like to use the rules of the field to score are not particularly popular.Even though the skill of making fouls has always existed in the arena of this league, those familiar superstars have used it superbly, but it is still not recognized by everyone.

An Luo's ball was indeed aimed at drawing a foul.After all, the opportunity given to him by the other party was so good that he went directly to meet it without thinking too much.

White, who was called for a foul, also had a look of helplessness on his face. He kept complaining to the referee. After all, it was An Luo who slammed into him on his own initiative.

But the referee still talks about the rules, and he can only judge what is considered a foul according to the rules.It is undeniable that referees also get it wrong when they are on the court, and there are many times like this.But whether they read it wrong or not, the judgment made will basically not be changed.

An Luo stood on the free throw line, looked at the basket and took a deep breath, turning a deaf ear to the boos all over the sky.After receiving the basketball thrown by the referee, he dribbled it three times on the spot, then took a bow and arrow, and threw the ball.

"Shh!"

The ball is in!
An Luo scored his 57th point in this game.At the same time, the Thunder's lead is approaching double digits.

The Spurs have not been affected by this three plus one in their tactics and plans.Aldridge catches the ball at the top of the key and hits it high, hitting Adams and getting close to the basket.At the same time, the rest of the Spurs were running around Aldridge.

When Aldridge approached the paint area, Gallinari on the side immediately let go of Lyles and double-teamed towards Aldridge.Double-team tactics have always been a very important part of the Thunder's defensive system.For these very mobile Thunder players, they are always required to maintain enough vitality in the game.Delays and double-teams after switching defenses are a good way for them to limit the opponent's offense. Coupled with the tacit understanding and timely rotation of players to fill positions, the Thunder's defense has always been sound.

Aldridge reacted decisively after seeing Gallinari leaning towards him.He raised the basketball with his right hand, making a gesture of passing the ball.After Gallinari changed direction, he made a sudden effort to push Adams who was behind him, and then turned over and made a jumper to score the ball.

In this game, Adams really failed to guard Aldridge.In their one-on-one rounds, Aldridge has always had an absolute advantage.This is not the first time something like this has happened!In recent seasons, Adams has always been Aldridge's sufferer.

Aldridge, who was born in 1985, is now an out-and-out veteran.He will be 35 years old this summer.For a player who relies on technology to make a living, Aldridge is not very old, but judging from the beginning of this season, his state has declined a lot.In the previous games against the Clippers and the Lakers, Aldridge scored 5 points and 8 points respectively.Everyone thought he was too old to play the ball.

In today's game, Aldridge took a sigh of relief.Although his tone came from media reporters and basketball commentators, it had nothing to do with Adams.But this does not prevent him from using actions to break through doubts when facing the Thunder.

At the beginning, he hit a mid-range hit near the free throw line, which opened up the situation for the Spurs, and then he fired several times in the three-second zone and near the free throw line.In the first quarter, he took 5 shots, hit 4 goals and scored 9 points.After entering the second quarter, his performance was even more against the sky. When he came up, he hit a mid-range shot at a 45-degree angle on the right side against Adams, and then he continued to hit mid-range shots.Throughout the second quarter, he scored 5 of 5 and scored 10 points + 1 rebound + 1 block.In the second half, Aldridge continued the fiery state of the previous two quarters. He had layups, mid-range shots, hooks, and throws. He scored 10 points again.

Aldridge played so well, a large part of the credit should be credited to Adams.

Although Aldridge's offensive skills are quite rich, even if he plays back-up singles, he rarely goes to the penalty area to complete the offense.More than 80% of his singles rounds are ended with mid-range.And this is the weak point of Adams' defense.Adams, who was not active enough to switch defenses and was hindered by the slow lateral speed, was most afraid of the kind of inside players with range and footwork.And Aldridge is exactly such a player.Moreover, in this game, his touch was overwhelming.When facing Adams, the feeling is how to vote!
This is also one of the reasons why Thunder has been unable to determine the victory even though An Luo played so well.There is a player who can ask for anything in the interior, and it is really not easy for them to open the score.

But now, no one is going to lament Aldridge's outstanding performance.Because, the Thunder launched an attack again.

Westbrook quickly advanced to the top of the arc, observed it, and then passed the ball to An Luo.The latter did not take action immediately, but stood in front of White in a three-threat posture.

At this time, White, despite his calm face, was actually quite disturbed.

In fact, White as a substitute player does not need to appear in such a situation.But the Spurs' starting second position, Bryn Forbes, is really too short, and he was too passive when facing An Luo.So White was defending An Luo most of the time in this game.

An Luo didn't wait too long.This is not the last attack, there is no need to deliberately delay the time.After observing the situation on the field for a while, he prepared the draft.I saw him suddenly rushing to the right with the ball, his first step was very big, and directly stuck White on the left side of his body.

White hurriedly chased after An Luo, but An Luo's speed was not slow, and he seized the opportunity again, making his defense fall into a rather passive situation all of a sudden.Fortunately, DeRozan, who had been watching covetously, came over in time to help defend White and took over this urgent need for White.

After being double-teamed, An Luo passed the ball to Robertson in the right corner in time.Although this guy's long-range shooting ability is seriously degraded now, his chances are really good.Robertson himself is very aware of his own affairs, so after receiving the ball, he immediately slid the ball to the basket and slid the baseline.In the NBA, no matter how bad a player is, as long as there is no defense, scoring will not be difficult.

After watching Robertson rush up, DeRozan quickly chased after him.Now that An Luo has passed the ball, there is naturally no need to double-team.Just as DeRozan turned his gun and chased after Robertson, someone moved faster than him.

This person is An Luo.When Robertson rushed up, he also rushed to the restricted area in the same direction.Of course, An Luo didn't want to grab a rebound, he just passed there.With the cover of the Thunder players who shrunk to the inside, An Loga quickly shook off the pursuers behind him, and then took a position in the bottom corner on the right.

Robertson gave up on scoring on his own.On the one hand, DeRozan's defense and Aldridge's threat made him feel intimidated, and on the other hand, he saw An Luo, who had a better chance than him.So, he chose to pass the ball.

In fact, if it weren't for An Luo standing in the bottom corner, or pushing the time of the game forward by ten years, Robertson's chances would definitely be better than An Luo.After all, he is close to the basket, even if he can't directly score the ball, there is a high possibility of causing the opponent's defensive foul, and then stand on the free throw line to score.

But the current basketball system is different, and An Luo has the strength to make everyone ignore the distance of the shooting range.

The ball came into An Luo's hands, and Lyles, who was closest to An Luo, rushed towards An Luo immediately, but it didn't help.His position was too far away to cause any disturbance to Anlu.

An Luo didn't think much about it, since the opportunity came up, he had to throw the ball.

After the basketball was set aside by An Luo, the entire AT&T Center Arena suddenly fell silent.

Once this three-pointer is scored, the Thunder will open the point difference to double digits, and An Luo's personal score will officially break through the 60 mark.As far as the huge logarithmic audience at the AT&T Center Arena is concerned, it is natural that this moment is not expected to come.After all, such a thing means that in the previous period of time, both the Spurs players and the entire team were defeated by the Thunder.

"Shh!"

The ball is in!
An Luo swung his right hand fiercely, and finally opened the point difference to double digits!He is very excited.If nothing else, it will be another night of victory.But when he turned around, he found Westbrook and Adams rushing towards him excitedly.An Luo couldn't help smiling: Hey!These guys are more excited than themselves.

"Man, welcome to the 60 Points Club!"

"From now on, you are a Mr. 60 points!"

……

After waiting for An Luo to be surrounded by Thunder generals, he realized what happened.Immediately, he himself became excited.

In fact, An Luo has been looking forward to this moment since the beginning of the fourth quarter.He never worried that he would not be able to complete this achievement.After all, more than half of the game has been completed in the previous three quarters.He never worried about his coaches and teammates not giving him that opportunity, no one did that.He is even less worried about being completely restricted by the opponent, unless the opponent gives up the victory, but I am afraid that the entire league will not be able to find such a head coach.

However, when An Luo was immersed in the game, he focused on how to help the team win the game.He only knew that he was scoring, but he didn't really know how many points he scored.

Mr. Vicki called a timeout, which gave An Luo a chance to enjoy the joy of setting a new record.

After returning from the timeout, the Spurs took their defense to the extreme.It's not that they didn't concentrate on defending An Luo, but the entire defensive system has been improved.It can be seen that the Spurs have always expected to win the game so far.

However, the Thunder did not give them that chance.Although under the defense of the Spurs, the Thunder's offensive efficiency has dropped a lot, but the Spurs themselves have not performed very well on the offensive end.After all, the Thunder's defense is not vegetarian.In the last period of time, Donovan directly resorted to a 3-2 zone defense and retreated the defense line to within the three-point line.As a result, the inside area became extremely crowded.This also makes Aldridge, who has been outstanding in the previous games, have been greatly affected on the offensive end.

In the end, the Thunder defeated the Spurs 119:113 in San Antonio.

However, the outcome of this game did not receive much attention after the game.Almost all media and fans' attention was focused on An Luo's miraculous statistics.

32分钟，64分4篮板6助攻2抢断！

An Luo's 64 points are the second player to score 60 points in a single game since the beginning of this season after Lillard; it is also the third after the Thunder moved to Oklahoma and after Durant and Westbrook. A player with 60+ points in a single game.

What is even more incredible is An Luo's efficiency in this game. 34 of 22 shots, more than 19% of the overall hit rate.Among them, 13 of [-] three-pointers directly broke the Thunder team history record held by himself, and even almost tied the league three-pointer record held by Klay Thompson.

In this battle, An Luo officially became the top scorer in the league.
