Chapter 405
Mu Chenfeng successfully broke the NBA's "youngest triple-double" record at the age of 19 years and 111 days.

After achieving a triple-double, Mu Chenfeng did not end his performance. After completing the triple-double, he seemed to have unloaded the burden on his body, and he played more freely on both offensive and defensive ends. In the last 3 minutes, Mu Chenfeng scored 4 points, 2 rebounds and 1 assist.

With 17 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists, Mu Chenfeng added to his stats before the end of the game. Today is another night destined to belong to Mu Chenfeng. After the game, he hugged Su Mengyao tightly with Su Mengyao who came to watch the away game.

Su Mengyao accompanied Mu Chenfeng in every NBA game, and also witnessed him breaking various historical records again and again. She felt more and more that the man in front of her was no longer that young boy, and he had become very reliable.

It seems that if you encounter a problem, you can always get a solution if you leave it to Mu Chenfeng.

After defeating the Houston Rockets, Miami arranged for Mu Chenfeng to have a truce. After all, the continuous away games have exhausted the body and mind. In addition, Mu Chenfeng's average playing time is more than 30 minutes per game, so he added Mu Chenfeng's name to the rotation list.

The away game against the Atlanta Hawks was the first time Mu Chenfeng came to the arena in a suit and leather shoes. This time he sat at the end of the bench and was on the inactive list.

Wade and Barrett had already made promises to him before the game, allowing him to sit on the bench and watch them win with peace of mind.

Although the Atlanta Hawks are not considered a strong team in the East, they also have a certain degree of resilience. The team has quasi-All-Star players like Kimmel Hunter and Tammy Grant, who has been selected to the third defensive team. The rest of the role players are also very impactful, especially the new faces in the team.

The term "all people are soldiers" is perfect to describe the Atlanta Hawks. It is such a team that has "not yet determined" the core of the team. It just achieved a record of 3 wins and 3 losses at the beginning of the season, ranking sixth in the Eastern Conference.

This kind of record and ranking is of course not worth mentioning in front of the Miami Heat, which is the number one in the league, but the Heat still attach great importance to this game. This is the first time they have returned to the Eastern Conference after experiencing three consecutive trips in the West. The players also have a feeling of returning to "home".

Sure enough, the eastern basket is more "pro".

The Heat players shot a super high shooting percentage during the warm-up, and the Eagles' home color scheme is very similar to the Heat's color scheme. They are both red and white as the main color, which makes the Heat find the feeling of "home court".

It is precisely because of this that the Heat are particularly active every time they play the Eagles. In the past 12 encounters, the Heat have achieved an absolute advantage of 10 wins and 2 losses in the record.

With historical records as a reference, the prediction results of this game are generally one-sided, 98%: 2%. No one thinks that the Heat will lose this game. Even though the Heat announced the decision to rest Mu Chenfeng early before the game, judging from the depth of the remaining lineup, it is difficult for even the full lineup of the Eagles to compete with the remnants of Miami.

However, at the beginning of the game, the Eagles gave everyone a resounding shot. Under the leadership of Hunter and Grant, the Eagles played the best opening 3 minutes of the season so far. The Atlanta people shot 6 of 6 at home with 100% shooting, 5 of which were three-pointers, and successfully hit the Heat's first timeout.

This is also the first timeout called by the Heat since the season, and it is usually the first timeout when they play their opponents.

The firepower of the Eagles exceeded the expectations of the Heat, so Scola asked the players to cheer up and strengthen the restrictions on Hunter and Grant.

In the NBA, there are not a few games where a strong team meets a weak team and overturns. The reason is that the opponent is taken lightly, the pre-match preparations are too relaxed, and the opponent’s unexpected firepower is insufficient to respond, resulting in losing the rhythm of the game.

As the "big brother" in the Eastern Conference, the Heat did not prepare enough before the game. Even the pre-game preparation meeting ended after only 10 minutes, because the coaching staff believed in the strength of Wade and Barrett and believed that they would be able to lead the team to victory no matter what the situation.

There is indeed no problem with the performance of the tail combination. Wade made 3 of 2 shots in the opening game, and Barrett made 1 of 1. The two combined for a 75% shooting rate. The problem is not the tail combination, but their opponent, the Eagles.

Even the Eagles themselves didn't expect that their touch on the outside would be so hot. No matter how they shot, they could even hit a forced shot that was defensively close to the face. In the face of the hot touch, any defense seemed so powerless.

The Eagles finally had a meal of "dumplings". However, since returning from the timeout, the Eagles' feel has declined slightly, and their outside shooting percentage has dropped to [-]%.

In just 2 minutes, Standemeier received 2 fouls and fell into a foul crisis early. At the end of the first quarter, the senior was replaced.

After Standermire left the field, the Heat's inside line became more empty. Hunter continued to attack the Heat's inside line, but Barrett stood up at this time and blocked Hunter's layup head-on.

"Why, do you really think we have no one inside?" After Standemire left the court, Barrett filled his position. Although his small forward figure was a little thin inside, his strength and inside skills were no worse than any real inside player. On the contrary, his flexible footwork gave him a certain advantage in the matchup with the big center.

When he was in the Bulls, Barrett often played the role of an inside player in the "small" lineup. Today Standemire's early rest gave him the feeling of being in the Bulls.

Hunter lost face after being capped head-on. He was eager to regain face and failed to control his defensive actions. He was fouled by Barrett and sent the latter to the free throw line.

The feel of the Eagles in the first half of the first quarter can be said to have experienced heaven and hell. The cold feel at the end of the first quarter and the restriction of Hunter almost wiped out the advantage the Eagles had finally established. Fortunately, the end of the first quarter was still timely, giving the Eagles a chance to enter the second quarter with a leading advantage.
