Mountain Peak System: a Path to NBA Chapter 788 280: When Legends Become the Past, When the GOAT

On the court, it's a Warriors' offensive play.

First, a powerful dribble.

Then a lateral dribble.

When he jumped vertically, Qin Yue, with his signature shooting form, scored his 23rd point of the ga, temporarily becoming the youngest player in NBA history to reach 20,000 points at the age of 29 years and 102 days, and the fourth player to enter the 20,000 regular season points club before turning 30.

At this mont, Kobe at 29 years and 12 days, Chamberlain at 29 years and 136 days, and Jordan at 29 years and 236 days, all beco history.

Final score, 97 to 128.

In just two and a half quarters for the Warriors, Qin Yue accumulated a total of 43 points, 14 rebounds, 10 assists, and 4 blocks.

He also increased his season total to 3,568 points.

With an average of 43.5 points per ga, he broke the NBA single-season scoring average record since complete technical statistics were recorded.

Additionally, the big screen at Oracle Arena displayed Qin Yue's complete stats for the 12/13 regular season amidst the cheers of the ho crowd:

This season, with full attendance, Qin Yue averaged 43.5 points, 15.8 rebounds, 9.6 assists, 4.4 blocks, and 1.6 steals per ga for the team.

Without a doubt.

This is a dominant stat line that will be repeatedly ntioned by people even years later.

In the post-ga interview, a reporter asked, "Tonight, you beca the youngest player in NBA history to reach 20,000 points, do you have anything to say?"

Qin Yue replied, "It's nothing, it's just a record, and I've never played for records. You know, I've always stepped on the court to win."

Then the reporter asked, "Excluding the season you missed due to injury, you've been the NBA's rebound king and block king for seven consecutive seasons, do you think you are the best defensive player in NBA history?"

Qin Yue smiled and said, "If I said I wasn't, I think my supporters would definitely think I'm hypocritical, so my answer is, I never doubt that I am the best defensive player in NBA history."

Finally, the reporter asked, "This is your sixth scoring title season, can you share with us how you managed to average '40 ' per ga this season?"

To this, Qin Yue said, "Step on the court, make the shots, that's my secret."

The seemingly calm deanor of Qin Yue afterwards contrasted sharply with his excitent in front of Evans that kept him awake all night.

anwhile, as the 12/13 NBA regular season ended, the playoff positions were officially set.

Stephen Curry, who started team practice in March, finally awaited his chance to prove himself again.

If Great Qin just wrapped up a perfect season,

then Curry, who was always teased by ESPN for the Warriors winning "whether or not they have Stephen," had a season that increasingly frustrated him.

At this mont, the more Curry thought about it, the angrier he got, he only wanted to prove himself in the upcoming playoffs.

However, perhaps thinking Curry's anger accumulation wasn't explosive enough,

before the playoffs arrived, ESPIN in summarizing this great Qin Yue season, didn't forget to ntion Curry: "Of course, apart from the already ordained ssiah, there's Stephen Curry, who has never proved himself, is also a player worth our attention."

"What do you an I never proved myself?"

Curry was annoyed.

This ti he was truly annoyed.

Seeing this, Brown, who could only advise Curry not to worry, said during a team practice, "Stephen, you don't have to care about ESPNs evaluation of you, after all, this is an outlet that can rank LeBron Jas behind Gerald."

"What?"

Beside him, Gerald Wallace, who until then didn't know he was placed behind "a roadside character" in the small forward position in ESPNs season summary, was furious: "Damn ESPN! What kind of bullsh*t ratings are these?"

Yes, this is "a roadside character" in contemporary players' minds at this mont.

For Gerald Wallace himself....

This could quite possibly be the greatest insult he's faced recently.

PS: As a phase summary before the completion of "Mountain Peak," this is the first ti Ah Qiao has written so many stats in one chapter. Yes, this season is the last one in the main part of "Mountain Peak." (After finishing the main story, Ah Qiao will try to write the remaining seven seasons of Lao Qin in a chapter-biography format)
