“I told you. Ja Morant is up for more than just the most improved player (MIP) ‘talk’,” he continued. LeBron James after Ja Morant’s tremendous exhibition (47 + 8 + 8 + 3) that put the 1-1 in the series between his Memphis Grizzlies and the Golden State Warriors. which was the basis of Murray State He has received all the praise after signing a galactic game, entering the history of the NBA, and, what is more important, breathing ‘life’ into a team that he saw as the runron 4-0 could be a reality.
For sure, it was not a favorable game context for the Grizzlies. Against the already complex Warriors -more after their 4-1 against the Nuggets-, the series began with a corrective. The offensive torrent and the rhythm of the Baha team was not defendable, and Morant touched the triple double (34 + 9 + 10), but see how even being close to 100% beat Kerr’s. And a 2-0 would be definitive, because in the Oracle Arena winning is a mission for the chosen ones, directly.
Well, Ja Morant put in one more point. Not because of the total scoring baggage, but because of not trembling in the last seconds. Become strong in the entrances to the basket and trust a shot that could offer doubts. 15 in a row, and 47 in the light. Acting in the story and taking advantage of the opportunity generated by the terrifying night ‘Dub’ from the three line. And yes, they are related, because a rival will always shoot worse, more pressured… if the rival star is infallible.
Ja Morant exhibition for the Grizzlies to beat the Warriors
Con Kobe Bryant y LeBron James
Ja Morant’s 47 points are only historically equaled by two NBA legends, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James, the only ones who add more than 45 under 23 years of age. The of the Lakers myth was in a memorable performance, a ‘Game 4’ against the Kings on May 13, 2001, and signed 48 points and 16 rebounds with 22 years. That ring will be angelino.
And even more special was that of LeBron James on May 31, 2007. He faced the Pistons in the fifth game of the conference finals. He would score 48 points at the age of 22 and make one of the defining performances of his sports career. The previous year he had already scored 45 in post-season.
“We’re going to have fun,” he said. Morant after his performance in Game 2 against the Warriors. It recovers part of what was lost, although the court factor continues to be favorable to those of the Baha. A declaration of intent before what is assumed to be a tie with a clear favourite. The Warriors leave with all the guarantees, but in Memphis have found a rival who will at least put up a fight.
And they have life, which is more important. As it happened with historical talents like Kobe Bryant or LeBron James, Ja Morant shows from his first games in post season a stellar status beyond any doubt. Candidate for everything you want to be in the future.
