Early November, US time.
As the teams played, the first week of the NBA season gradually came to an end.
Many teams had achieved excellent results of two consecutive victories.
The competition for the Best of the Week had also entered a white-hot stage.
Due to Ye Ran's explosive performance since the start of the game, the popularity of the entire NBA was also rising on the other side of the ocean.
TL Sports, which had just bought the exclusive online broadcasting rights to the NBA this year, was even more ecstatic.
They specially produced a special program before the focus of the battle between the Knicks and the Celtics.
"The topic we're going to discuss today is whether Ye Ran has any hope of getting the best ball of the week in the first week!”
"You have to know that in the history of the NBA, only Shaquille O'Neal has won the Best of the First Week as a rookie. If Ye Ran can do this, he will be on par with O'Neal!”
On the special program of Texas Sports, Yang Yi was the first to ask the question that everyone was most concerned about.
"Let's take a look at Ye Ran's statistics for the past two games. In the first game, he had 50 points, 29 rebounded, and 8 blocked shots. 52 points, 27 rebounding, and 9 blocked shots in the second game!”
"Currently, he's scoring 51 points per game, ranking first in the league!”
"Averaged 28 rebound per game, ranked first in the league!”
"An average of 8.5 blocked shots per game, ranked first in the league!”
"In the first two games of Ye Ran's career, he has already set several NBA records.”
"Under normal circumstances, he doesn't even need to have good statistics in the next match. As long as he plays normally, it shouldn't be a problem for him to win the Best Player of the Week.”
His partner, Wang Meng, listed the data one by one, and every data appeared on the big screen, causing the bullet screen and comments in the live broadcast room to instantly go crazy.
This was definitely the level of a superstar.
"However, I don't think it's certain that Ye Ran is the best player of the week.”Yang Yi looked at the data sheet in his hand and said.
"There was another player in the league who performed very well in his first week.”
"After LeBlanc James won last year's championship, he was in top form at the start of the season. He won two consecutive victories and was able to average 37.5 points, 11 rebounded, and 8 assists per game. He was able to achieve a quasi triple-double, which was completely worthy of last week's best glory.”
In the Eastern Conference over the past few years, the honor of being the best player of the week could be called the LeBlanc James Award. He was definitely the player who had received the most honor in the Eastern Conference.
This year, he carried the temperament of a champion, and he was in top form at the start of the game.
If not for Ye Ran's sudden appearance, this glory would not even need to be discussed.
"Yes, based on the data, Ye Ran is in the lead. However, their next opponent is the Boston Celtics. Everyone is familiar with this team and they are very strong. If they can't win against their opponent, it's hard to say who will be the best player of the week.”
"The Heat's next opponent is the detroit-based pistons. They can be said to have booked a three-game winning streak in advance.”
"For Ye Ran, the next match against Garnett is the first test of his career. He must win the game.”
"Let's wait and see. I believe Ye Ran will continue to surprise us.”
…………
North Shore Garden Arena, Boston, USA.
The game between the New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics was about to begin.
Before the game began, the live television broadcast was focused on Garnett, who was being interviewed.
"I know what the outside world is discussing now. Many fans hope that Ye Ran will continue to dominate and win the Player of the Week award in the first week.”
"But, I'm sorry, they are destined to be disappointed.”
"No one can easily take away a victory from Boston, let alone a rookie!”
"Tonight, he will swallow the first defeat of his career!”
Garnett was not a good-tempered person to begin with.
Therefore, it was not strange for the reporters to say such harsh words before the game.
However, the reporter felt that it was still not enough, so he continued to ask,"Do you mean that you're going to beat Ye Ran up tonight?”
"Of course. I heard that he once boasted that he would block 10 shots in this game according to the rules?”
"But, you know, I'm also an expert at blocking shots and won the best defensive player!”
"So the person who should be careful of getting blocked tonight should be Ye Ran. If he dares to dunk in front of me, I will not hesitate to block him!”
"There is a difference in level between him and me. This is what I want to say!”
Although he knew that the reporters were stirring up trouble, Garnett, who had long been unhappy with Ye Ran, did not hold back and took the opportunity to speak his true thoughts.
As a 14-time All-Star and former MVP, DPOY.
His pride would never allow him to lose this match.
On the other side, Paul Pearce continued.
"We old guys haven't left the stage of the Alliance yet. It's still too early for a rookie like Ye Ran to get promoted.”
"This is my home ground."
"The NBA isn't a game where whoever has good statistics is stronger!”
Giving the youngsters a lesson was the goal of Garnett and Pierce, the two unresigned old guys, in this game.
…………
On the other side, Ye Ran also accepted an interview with the reporter. The reporter relayed Garnett's words before the match with Pierce.
"You play basketball with your hands, not your mouth.”
Ye Ran shrugged his shoulders in disdain." Go and tell the other side. You have old arms and legs. Be careful. I don't have the habit of respecting the old and cherishing the young."”
Garnett and Ye Ran were both full of confidence in their strength when they shouted in the air before the game.
This also made the fans watching the live broadcast exhilarated.
As for who would be slapped in the face, they would see it in the competition later!
After a simple warm-up, the starting lineup of both teams appeared.
On the Knicks 'side, it was the same as the past two games.
Holly Nick Young Anthony Ye Ran Monica.
The Celtics 'starting lineup was:
Point guard: Rajen Rondo.
Shooting guard: Avery Bradley.
Small Forward: Paul Pierce.
