Chapter 649 The youngest triple-double in history
Smith's breakthrough was intercepted by Tang Tian, and Tang Tian brought the ball back to Ding Widdie who was about to get off the ground in the fast break.
Dinwiddie then gave Jokic, who was late in the middle, who took the ball and fired directly from outside the three-point line.
Jokic's three-pointer was like a high-speed turret, and the ball he threw was high and heavy.
"Swish!"
Accompanied by a crisp sound of entering the net, the basketball fell heavily into the net bag.
This goal came very well, helping the Pelicans expand the score difference to double digits, while his personal score also reached 11 points.
Smith's three-point shot from Tang Tian was still out of the box, and Jokic got his 10th rebound in the game.
Tang Tian broke through the double team in the frontcourt and entered the inside to make a strong attack.
In the blink of an eye, the difference between the two sides had reached as much as 14 points.
Woodson was forced to call for a pause.
The Knicks have excellent record this season, but JR Smith is in average shape and their dependence on dual cores is much greater than that of the Pelicans.
Anthony and Howard can't play during this period, and the Knicks are already showing signs of collapse.
After the timeout, Woodson replaced Anthony and Howard in advance.
This is impossible to be forced by the Pelicans.
After the timeout, Howard played Jokic at the basket, and Davis came to defend.
Howard was happy with the Knicks and was willing to share the ball. He gave the ball to the free throw line in a double-team Stoudemire.
Stoudemire took the ball and killed it in, wanting the overlord to take the bow.
But Davis held the ball in the inside and pressed Stoudemire's dunk.
Davis couldn't handle Howard, but Stoudemire was more than enough to handle the end of his career.
The ball that was covered was in Amino's hands.
The ball was given to Tang Tian.
The Pelicans have a clear lead, so he is not in a hurry to play quickly and starts to play slower.
Jokic is at the top of the arc, and the Pelicans run around and forth.
Anthony rested off the court for less than a minute. At this moment, there was some physical problem. Tang Tian used Aminu to cut into the basket and accelerated to throw him away.
Jokic saw Tang Tian’s cutting trajectory and directly pushed the ball over the basket.
He really dares to spread it!
Tang Tian jumped up after seeing the pass.
The quality of the ball passed was just right, and Tang Tian got the ball and smashed it directly into the basket.
"Bang!"
The ball was smashed into the basket.
Cheers burst into tears.
It is not uncommon for the Pelicans to catch the ball at once, but in the past, Tang Tian was basically passing the ball to two big men. Unexpectedly, this time Tang Tian became the one who got the ball at once!
Jokic's hand job is definitely at the golden level.
A score difference of 16 points!
The Pelicans have already won the victory.
Anthony scored a quick stop to play Aminu in the frontcourt, and scored 36 points in this game, forcibly pulled the Knicks back from the edge of the cliff.
But looking back, it was Jokic who organized the arc top and hit the earth to Amino, who made a layup and scored two points.
It has to be said that the significance Jokic brings to the Pelicans at the tactical level is really unprecedented.
He is the center, but he can shoot three points and pull the center out, making the opponent's inside empty. With first-class passes, the opponent cannot defend himself.
Tang Tian’s previous dunk and Amino’s layup were all thanks to this.
Jokic is still subject to defense now. Once his defense reaches the average level of the league, Tang Tian can really make a breakthrough without restraint.
Not to mention that Davis is waiting for an opportunity.
The Pelicans really saw a very terrifying future tonight.
After Aminu's ball entered, a string of data was played on the LED screen on the spot.
It is Jokic's personal data for this game.
11 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists.
With about 6 minutes left before the game, Jokic had already won his first triple-double in his career!
In his first game as a starter!
This is definitely a historic moment.
The cheers from the fans at the scene could no longer be stopped.
Two years ago, they were completely blocked from the playoff goal. The team had only one injured Gordon, one with a poor defense, and one No. 1 pick who was plagued by injuries and one with a chance to lose.
But now, their lineup is excellent, and in the future they are even more powerful to the naked eye.
This scene really made home fans very excited.
Anthony and Howard tried hard to help the team turn over, but the difference between the points behind was too big.
In the end, the Pelicans defeated the Knicks 116-108 at home, killing their opponents twice in the season.
Anthony scored 44 points and 7 rebounds, and Howard scored 20 points and 12 rebounds to no avail. The rest of the Knicks have given too little help.
Tang Tian got the Pelicans' highest 28 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists, Davis scored 17 points and 9 rebounds, and Jokic scored a triple-double of 13 points, 10 rebounds and 11 assists.
After the game, a close-up of Jokic's data was given on the large LED screen on the scene.
And next to the close-up, there is also a paragraph of text noted.
The youngest triple-double gentleman in NBA history, 20 years and 2 days.
The youngest triple-double record was held by James.
The latter, as a third-year student, scored 27 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in the game against the Trail Blazers at the age of 20 and 20 days.
Now this record has been broken by Jokic.
What is more worth mentioning is that this is not only the youngest record, but also the fastest among rookies to achieve this record.
Tang Tian only realized when he looked up and saw this.
He went over and touched Jokic's head, then reached out to signal to the fans of the audience, and took the lead in cheering Jokic.
"Jokic! Jokic!"
Under Tang Tian's leadership, fans on the scene shouted Jokic's name.
This is his night of his career.
Jokic's eyes were red, and he turned to hug Tang Tian. He really thanked Tang Tian and was really glad that he came to such a team.
Tang Tian and Jokic attended the post-match press conference.
In addition to daily praise, Tang Tian also nicknamed Jokic.
He is not for no reason, but really respects history.
"Joker, you can call him that in the future."
After Tang Tian finished speaking with a smile, Jokic was stunned, and there was a lot of discussion in the audience.
But soon, most people realized.
Joker, homophonic with jokic, makes it easy to call it.
Moreover, Joker is the nickname of the clown in the DC movie, and they are basically equal.
The Joker is the most impressive and most popular villain in the movie, and he enjoys playing with his opponents.
Jokic's passes in the game, his first show of inside footsteps, and his sense of playing with his opponents and potential.
This nickname is truly worthy of its name.
Williams laughed loudly when he heard this. Tang Tian gave Whiteside a nickname and now he gave Jokic another joke.
With his own nicknames, he is really the nickname King!
