Chapter 366 Collecting Statistics on the Stage of the Finals

"In the first game of the NBA Finals yesterday, the Orlando Magic played against the Houston Rockets at home. In this campaign, Michael DeWeese, the number one of the Magic, played 42 minutes and scored 19 points, 13 assists, 10 rebounds and 10 steals. The quadruple-double data helped the Magic beat their opponents at home 110-90 and won their first victory in the finals."

This is the next day, the Tianchao TV station on the other side of the ocean reported the game. This year, CCTV broadcast the NBA Finals for the third year. In the newly enlightened Chinese land of the NBA, Michael DeWeese’s name, like Jordan, has become synonymous with the NBA.

Compared with the dark old hooligan in his 30s, it is obvious that the sunny and handsome DeWeese in his early 20s is more popular. After Director Zhang returned to China, DeWeese could speak very standard Mandarin, which made DeWeese more popular in Tianchao Mainland. Many people became fans of the Magic team when they first came into contact with the NBA.

Some people have already begun to discuss who is stronger between Davis and Jordan. After all, in the three years since Davis entered the league, he was eliminated by Jordan in the playoffs only in the first year, and won the Eastern Conference Finals in the remaining two years and entered the finals.

In the first game, many professionals saw a lot of problems. The most mainstream view is that the current strength of the Magic is unique. Whether it is the Bulls or the Rockets, they seem to be a level weaker than the Magic.

However, the Magic now has the No. [-] salary in the league and pays tens of millions in luxury taxes every year. It is understandable to have this strength.

The turmoil brought about by DeWeese's quadruple double continues to ferment. In this case, the second game between the Rockets and the Magic began.

As soon as the second game started, Stern received a report from his subordinates that the ratings of this game had broken records from the very beginning.

The last viewership record was set in Game [-] of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Magic and the Bulls last year, but this year, the Finals, which seemed to have no suspense, broke the previous record by a very large margin.

"What does this mean?" Stern said with a smile to the subordinate who gave him the report.

"It shows that the Magic has become the most popular team in the league."

"Why is the Magic the most popular team in the league?"

"Because of Michael DeWeese."

Stern nodded, put away the report, stopped talking, and walked out of his office with understanding.

In the second game, Davis changed his style of play while taking into account both offensive and defensive ends in the last game, and became the fan's favorite super offensive No. [-] position.

This is also the most commonly used style of play by Davis.

Cassel's mentality that had just been adjusted was once again crushed by Davis.

At the very beginning, DeWeese made three consecutive three-pointers on Kassel's head, and all three shots were made. These three goals were murderous.

In addition, Kassel scored 9 points, 5 assists and 8 turnovers in the last game. . . .

Gee tut.

However, Davis will not show mercy. In the case that coach Lao Tang did not arrange double-teams, the Magic only played a simple single in the first quarter. More precisely, Davis played Cassel. . .

After Davis scored those three three-pointers, he almost pulled out all the skills he knew to experiment.

What kind of people pass the ball, pass through the crotch, worship Buddha, turn and lean back when hitting with the back, retreat step, European step, fake fax shot after holding the ball with one hand.

Anyway, in the second quarter, Cassel was replaced by Kenny Smith.

Smith plays cautiously, and at age 31 he would be in his prime as a point guard if Cassell hadn't risen so quickly.

Compared with Cassel, who was obviously out of balance, Smith's performance against Davis was much better. At least the team's normal operation was no problem, and the Rockets also began to slowly chase points.

But the hole dug by the Rockets in the first quarter was a bit big. By the end of the half, the Rockets were still behind the Magic by [-] points.

Davis scored 25 points in the first half with 6 assists and 4 rebounds. It looks like today is another high-scoring night.

The premise is that the Rockets can withstand it.

In the third quarter, coach Lao Tang replaced all the main players, and the Magic played a normal rotation, with Davis playing with several substitutes and Garnett.

Even the combination of Davis, Garnett, Horry, and Mason was comparable to the Rockets on the scene.

迪威斯单节7投5中，罚球8罚7中，砍下18分，自己的得分也来到了40+
The two teams still came to the fourth quarter with a double-digit point difference.

The Orlando Magic did not give the Rockets another chance. They played a small climax of 5-18 in 6 minutes, which completely ended the suspense of the game.

迪威斯全场34投22中，三分球8中4，罚球11罚10中，砍下了58分11助攻8篮板的准三双数据，也刷新了总决赛的得分记录。

He also created countless records in this game. After all, anyone who knows NBA records and statistics can understand them. . . . .

With a score of 2-0, the Magic came to Houston, Texas Space City with a stable mentality, preparing to raise their own championship trophy in Houston.

After the quadruple-double in the first game, DeWeese scored a record-breaking high score in the second game. DeWeese's fever continued to ferment, not only in the United States, but even in the world, and gradually became famous.

In the third game two days later, the Houstonians were going to win their first victory at home, but how could the Magic let them do so.

Before the game, D'Antoni specifically asked DeWeese to do a physical fitness test. The feedback given by the team doctor was that DeWeese is in very good condition and there is no problem in supporting a game of more than 40 minutes.

With the guarantee of the team doctor, D'Antoni let Davis play 45 minutes in the third game without any psychological pressure.

迪威斯也没有让所有人失望，他45分钟的时间里砍下了53分11助攻12篮板4抢断2盖帽，打的火箭队没有一点脾气。

In this game, DeWeese's usage rate was as high as 46%, and basically all offenses were completed by DeWeese.

And his 50+ triple-double once again set a record in the finals.

You know, all the statistics Davis scored were done on the stage of the finals.

DeWeese's crazy performance not only blinded the eyes of the fans, but the Magic are also very hopeful to complete a 16-0 record in the playoffs for the first time.

In the pre-match training, Coach Lao Tang no longer talked to the players about how to comeback and win the championship. His request was very humble. He just hoped that the team would win the next game at home and avoid the fate of being swept away.

But will the Magic give them a chance?
