Chapter 851 A New Record for Personal Halftime Score in a Single Quarter

The first quarter of the game was almost halfway through, but Ying Xiong had already scored 17 points. The highest score in a single quarter of the NBA playoffs came in 1987, when Floyd, nicknamed "The Sleeper", scored 29 points.

Of course, according to Yingxiong's previous state and touch, breaking this record does not seem to be too difficult.But the question is, can this feeling last?Another point is that there is a high probability that the other party will not watch him slash and kill like this without being indifferent.From the latest defensive round, the opponent has already started to flank him.

The game continues.

On the Wizards' side, Oubre, Bill's outside line, shook Patterson and then forced his way inside, facing Ibaka's dunk!
But Ibaka is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so I will give it to him immediately!

Gortat picked up the ball and made a tip-up under the basket-Ying Xiong intercepted in the air and took the ball away!

Gortat became angry and fouled back!

"Reggie, not only should he be omnipotent on the offensive end, he is also omnipotent on the defensive end! It's unimaginable!" Greg Sager said with an expression of "admiration".

Raptors possession of the ball!

At this time, a substitution was made on the sidelines, and Jeremy Lin was replaced by Lowry.

Lowry dribbles slowly across half court, looking for someone at the top of the arc.Of course, he was looking for Ying Xiong.

Potter almost got hung up on Ying Xiong, tried his best, but there was no one else in his eyes except Ying Xiong.

But Yingxiong is not something you can limit if you want to. His movement is quite flexible, sometimes erratic, sometimes static.He still received the ball calmly.

Ying Xiong received the ball from the left wing and faced Porter, the cheers of the fans also started to rise.So far in this game, he has scored 17 points and has not missed a hand.

Ying Xiong didn't call the pick-and-roll, he didn't want to give the opponent a chance to pinch him.But even so, Bill, who was closest to him, had come to participate in the pincer attack.

Ying Xiong moved, he didn't pass the ball, but moved to the center with the ball.Obviously, he didn't want to be easily flanked by the opponent.

When Bill and Porter were about to encircle Yingxiong, Yingxiong suddenly took a big step back, out of the way, and then jumped up instantly, leaning back, and shot out with a 3-pointer...and at this time , he is more than 3 meters away from the 1-point line...

"God, what do you want? Reggie, tell me what he wants to do?" Greg Sager began to speak incoherently.

Ying Xiong's 3-pointer hit the net!There was a momentary silence—then it erupted, bringing screams and roars.

Ying Xiong scored 20 points!There are nearly 6 minutes left before the end of the first quarter!
"This game, this night, doesn't seem to belong to Washington!" Reggie Miller said quietly.

In the second half of the first quarter, the Wizards crazily took a flanking attack against Xiong, and started flanking without the ball.They have been beaten by his offense, and they would rather let other players score easily than let him destroy their self-confidence in such a cruel way.

In the second half of the first quarter, Ying Xiong restrained his desire to attack and began to pass the ball to his teammates, but he still did not give up his offense and scored 12 points in consecutive shots with penalties.

Ying Xiong played the entire first quarter, and didn't miss his first shot until the last minute of the first quarter!In the first quarter of the game, he scored 1 points, setting a new record for scoring in a single quarter in the NBA playoffs!

"Reggie, I'm so lucky to witness such a historic moment!" Greg Sager sighed, still unfinished.

"Yeah Greg, it's crazy, this is the craziest scoring performance I've ever witnessed as a commentator!" Reggie Miller also said with emotion.

"Reggie, don't say it too early, this game is not over yet! I still want to see if Ying can break his own half-court scoring record and single-game scoring record!" Greg Sager excited said.

"Then look forward to it!"

Relying on Ying Xiong's strong performance, the Raptors led their opponents by double digits in the first quarter. No matter from the scene or morale, it seems that the game has lost suspense in advance.

Ying Xiong didn't replace teammate DeRozan until 2 minutes and 7 seconds left in the second quarter.Although the fans have been calling for him to play, the coaching staff did not lose their minds and did not delay his rest time in order to break the record.

Ying Xiong returned to the field and the game continued.

Jeremy Lin slowly dribbled the ball over and gave it to Ying Xiong who cut out from the baseline.

Defensive Yingxiong changed from Porter in the first quarter to Oubre.It's not that the coach doesn't believe in Porter, but that he has committed 3 fouls and had no choice but to rest.

Ying Xiong faced Ubre, seeing that the opponent did not come up to attack, so he decided to fight by himself.

Ubre looked at Ying Xiong nervously, as if he was facing an enemy.

Ying Xiong looked very relaxed, and his dribbling movements were also very slow.But even if he is like this, the opponent still dare not take the ball easily.The players defending him have always had a feeling that if they make a move, they will lose their position.

Ying Xiong started to make a breakthrough with a simple step down and left hand. Of course, this move did not shake off the young striker Oubre.He held the ball in the middle and suddenly pulled the ball from his hip to his right hand, and then made a fake move with a strong right hand. After attracting the opponent's attention, he took advantage of the opportunity to pull the ball with his right hand and turned around, received the ball, leaned back, and shot a jumper...

Oubre was confused by his series of emergency stop and change direction feints, and was a step slower, but he was still not reconciled, he jumped up vigorously, and rushed forward with all his strength.

The result was—goal in—whistle blown—

"And one!" The chubby white man in a baseball shirt near the baseline couldn't help shouting.

Ying Xiong stood on the free throw line, and calls like "MVP" and "Hero" came and went.

Ying Xiong steadily made additional free throws, increasing his halftime score to 35 points.At this time, he was only 41 points away from setting his own NBA playoffs personal halftime scoring record (6 points).

Almost everyone present believed that as long as Ying Xiong wanted to, he could easily break his half-court scoring record and single-game scoring record in this game.

You must know that this is the playoffs, and Ying Xiong can still score like a bag, so obviously, he didn't give his best in the regular season.

Even in the next game, the Wizards once again double-teamed against Xiong, but he still scored 6 points in more than 12 minutes.Adding his previous 35 points, his total halftime score rose to 47 points, breaking his own playoff personal halftime scoring record of 41 points.

With Yingxiong's strong boost of 47 points in the half, the Raptors led their opponents by as much as 28 points. It seemed that the suspense of the game was killed at halftime.

Wizards coach Scott Brooks looked helpless, he didn't know what to say to the players.
