Anthony the Reborn

Chapter 118 The Night of Records

"Haha! That guy Frank is amazing! He's making us New Yorkers proud!" Ewing was already grinning from ear to ear in the commentary booth, and he was so depressed that he couldn't care less about the image of a celebrity. What's more, he was straight to the point.

"Yeah, Frank's outburst made the head coach Mike of the Nuggets unable to sit still. It seems that he is going to be the main force. The suspense of this game has returned!" Jones also said excitedly. It is also a commentary game that finally does not have to pick bones in the egg.

"Andre, Melo, Nene, the three of you come on, get the situation under control." D'Antoni had no choice but to replace the three starters with relatively better physical fitness. He didn't want to be in the gutter Capsize.

Anthony was overjoyed when he heard the words. He thought it was hopeless to break the record in this game, but he didn't expect that the sudden appearance of the Knicks turned things around again.

The Knicks came back from a timeout and let Williams play the point guard. They also played the main force in other positions. It seemed that they were preparing for the last fight.

As soon as they play, it is the offense of the Nuggets. With the four starters and Mutombo, they cooperate with each other tacitly, and the offense of the Nuggets suddenly becomes smooth.

Facing Anderson's defense, Anthony walked around the baseline, and then made a sudden back run, leaving the latter behind.

Miller, holding the ball at the top of the circle, was always observing the running position of his teammates, and passed the ball immediately after seeing Anthony come out.

Anthony received the ball steadily, then turned around, and shot a very decisive jumper.

When Anderson rushed over, Anthony had already jumped up. He didn't even have time to make defensive moves, so he could only look up helplessly.

Anthony's light posture, after the shot, still maintains his hand and falls to the ground, his eyes are always watching the direction in which the ball is thrown.

"Shh!"

With a crisp sound, the ball fell steadily into the net bag.

"yeah!……"

There was a burst of cheers from the Nuggets' bench, and White and Korver both picked up towels and waved them vigorously, cheering for the team leader.

"Hush!..."

Correspondingly, the home fans who were still in the stadium booed Anthony together.

Anthony's performance on the sidelines was just grinning, and he didn't show much. The pressure exerted by the packed arena before had little effect on him, let alone these people in front of him.

Looking back, the Knicks' offense may have been inspired by the coach. They took the initiative to design a complex continuous pick-and-roll tactic for Williams. The pick-and-roll was blocked, and after the switch, Williams also fulfilled his mission, stepping on the three-point line and hitting a large two-pointer, continuing his fiery state.

Anthony saw that Williams continued to hit shots, and there was a trace of fighting spirit in his eyes. This is what he wanted, and only challenges can motivate him.

In the next few rounds, Anthony often hit shots at critical moments, allowing the Nuggets to always be in the lead, but Williams was also strong enough, without any stage fright, and he was mid-range and layup, and he also drew a record. Three points, while increasing the personal score to 15 points, it also firmly bites the point difference within ten points.

"The game really became more and more exciting." Jones watched Anthony and Williams face off on the court. Although they were not in the same position, the excitement of the game was undeniable. The fans were so focused on watching the game That says it all.

"Melo's scoring ability is really stable, but it's a pity that Frank's magical performance made the Knicks feel that they are still short of breath." Ewing said with some regrets, the two sides have been scoring points, although the point difference has not been widened. , but the game time is also running away bit by bit. If this stalemate continues, the Knicks may have no hope of making a comeback.

"Now the two sides are deadlocked, it depends on who can break this deadlock first." Jones continued to mobilize the emotions of the audience.

Perhaps Williams' state is too hot, Bell is obviously very good at defending, he can still make a forced shot, and it's not just once, as if God really stood behind him.

Slowly, Bell's mood changed subtly. Facing the pick-and-roll at this moment, he could have bypassed it, but somehow directly bumped into Van Horn, and because of this, Williams won An easy shot, an open three-pointer and a steady hit.

At 89:75, with about 4 minutes left in the game, the Knicks finally made a breakthrough and narrowed the deficit to within reach.

"Haha, it looks like the Knicks will break the deadlock first, and the Nuggets are in trouble this time~" Ewing was grinning from ear to ear at the moment, Williams' performance was really unexpected His surprise, the magic boy has scored 23 points in the fourth quarter.

D'Antoni on the sidelines didn't call a timeout, but just made a personnel adjustment, letting Camby play to replace Mutombo. Although the latter performed well, he couldn't keep up with his age.

D'Antoni didn't say anything, but Anthony had already noticed that something was wrong with Bell, but the game was so fierce at the moment, he didn't have time to care about so much, he devoted himself to the game.

The Nuggets' offense, after Anthony and Nene had a pick-and-roll, Anthony was misplaced to face Van Horn's singles. The latter's defensive ability was also poor. Anthony shook him clean without making a few moves. , scored two points lightly without pressure, and once again widened the point difference, his personal score has reached 50 points, which is 8 points away from his personal season high, but it is even closer to Madison's visiting team's scoring record up.

At this moment, Jones on the sidelines finally came to this matter. He turned his head and said to the excited Ewing, "Patrick, it seems that Melo has already scored 50 points?"

"Haha, Frank is amazing! If this kid keeps going like this, he might break the team's scoring record in a single quarter!" Ewing said excitedly to himself.

"Cough cough..."

Jones was quite embarrassed that Ewing didn't hear what he said, but after all, he has been in the field for a long time, and he quickly adjusted his mentality, and continued to emphasize: "Patrick, Melo seems to break the scoring record of the visiting team at Madison Square Garden." .”

"Yeah, Frank is going to break the visiting team at Madison Square Garden..." Ewing just said, suddenly realized something was wrong, turned his head and frowned, "Kevin, what did you just say?"

Jones was speechless for a while, and patiently explained: "Melo has already scored 50 points. If I am not mistaken, the visiting team scoring record at Madison Square Garden is Michael's 1995 points in 55, right?"

"The visiting team's scoring record? It seems to be...that was the record nearly ten years ago, 50 points. I really remember it when you say that..." Ewing said with a hint of memory in his eyes.

"Yeah, in the last game against the Heat, Melo just tied Zhang Dashuai's 43-year scoring record. Is this kid really a scoring maniac born to break records? What?" Jones said helplessly.

As soon as Jones finished speaking, Anthony hit another three-pointer from the outside, raising his score to 53 points.

"This...really..." Ewing also said with a smile. At this time, there are still more than 2 minutes before the game, and it is not too difficult for Anthony to score another two points.

The point difference between the two sides remained at 6 points. Perhaps realizing that the game was coming to an end, Knicks coach Cheney called a timeout.

After walking off the field, Anthony finally had a chance to breathe. He directly pulled Bell and said, "Raja, if you give up yourself, no one will support you."

Throwing down a cold word, Anthony ignored Bell's reaction and went straight back to the bench, leaving Bell in a daze, dazed at a loss.

D'Antoni had a good talk, and he was obviously a little emotional. He was obviously very dissatisfied that the game that should have entered the garbage time had now become such a fierce battle.

Bell looked at D'Antoni at this time, then at Anthony, and found that the two people who supported him the most did not focus on him at this time without exception. He couldn't help feeling hot and squeezed unconsciously Make a fist.

Until D'Antoni came on the court, Bell walked quickly to the court, he didn't notice the twinkle in Anthony's eyes
After the timeout, the Knicks attacked, and Williams continued to hold the ball. Before that, he had slowly changed from relying on his teammates to singles Bell, and he also played two, so he continued to hold the ball at this moment.

Crossing steps, changing movements, pulling out his hand directly after a series of movements, the original feeling is still there, and he believes that he can still hit the middle distance steadily.

"Snapped!"

Suddenly there was a crisp sound in his ear, and he didn't even react, and then he saw the ball disappear from his eyes.

Bell's side volleyball block slammed Williams' ball out.

Almost at the same time, a figure who had been waiting at the side suddenly burst out from the side, grabbed the ball that was about to fly out of the field, then followed it to the ground, and rushed towards the front field quickly.

Anthony!
He had already guessed that Bell would rise to the challenge, otherwise how could he match the image of Kobe Bryant in history who dared to choke his throat, so he had long been waiting for the opportunity.

In the end, he guessed right!
None of the Knicks players reacted at all, and Anthony hit the frontcourt with a slam dunk.

When he was more than one meter away from the basket, he jumped up, pulled the ball high behind his head with his right hand, and made the last classic dunk action that he had never tried.

"Oh!"

Anthony scored the 55th point with a tomahawk dunk, tying Michael Jordan's 1995 Madison away scoring record!
