Coming out of the timeout, the Milwaukee Bucks didn't make any adjustments, sticking to a hard single-man defense on Kai with Middleton.
Giannis's breakthrough was still sharp; even though the Clippers double-teamed him, it didn't affect his performance.
But when Giannis, drenched in sweat, looked up at the score, the glaring 90:74 made him feel a little helpless.
He was clearly constantly helping the team score!
Why hadn't the team's point difference been closed?
It had even expanded to 16 points!
He didn't understand, truly didn't understand!
Giannis certainly didn't understand, and neither did Mallory on the sidelines.
Just how strong was Kai's scoring explosiveness on offense?
Before either of them could fully grasp the situation, the Clippers' offense and defense transition struck again on the court.
On the fast break, Kai quickly moved to the left three-point line, a spot not far from Mallory.
"Swish!"
Beverley quickly drove to the basket with the ball, and after attracting the Milwaukee Bucks players' defensive attention, he passed the ball to Kai, who had been waiting for a long time.
Kai caught the ball, made a slight adjustment, and shot a wide-open three-pointer directly!
"Honey, this is for you!!"
As soon as he shot the ball, Kai had already turned around and pointed at Mallory, who was sitting not far away.
"Swish!"
As Kai Chen finished showing off, the basketball also swished through the net!
"Sigh!"
Mallory had completely lost her arrogant demeanor from before, letting out a weak sigh, pouting her small mouth, feeling a bit lost.
"Kai's scoring ability has once again been unleashed in Milwaukee!"
At the commentary desk, Smith passionately exclaimed, "The season MVP award, widely discussed by media fans before the game, I think everyone already has a result in their hearts!"
"That's right!"
Beside him, O'Neal also echoed, "Based on the current situation, Kai is this season's MVP!"
"No one in the league can stop him!"
In the end, Giannis, who scored 41 points in the entire game, was powerless to turn the tide.
The Milwaukee Bucks lost to the Los Angeles Clippers 101:118 at their home court, a 17-point difference.
Even until the end of the game, Giannis couldn't figure out how they lost this game!
His performance wasn't bad, and his scoring efficiency was very high.
"Kai dominated both ends of the court!"
Compared to Giannis, who was still in a daze, Head Coach Mike Budenholzer, who was interviewed after the game, seemed unusually clear-headed: "Besides that, the Clippers allowed Giannis to fully unleash his talent, but they cut off his connection with his teammates."
Throughout the game, only Giannis on the Milwaukee Bucks played at his own pace.
After all, he is the Most Valuable Player, and it is indeed very difficult to limit him.
But the Clippers' defensive focus was not on him at all.
The Clippers' defensive focus today was on the other Milwaukee Bucks players besides Giannis.
Middleton, who doesn't have self-initiated offensive play, Brogdon, who is still in his second year as a rookie...
"I've always been full of confidence in Kai Chen!"
Doc Rivers, who was interviewed on the other side, directly stated when asked about Kai's defensive performance in this game: "Kai, he is an omnipotent presence on the court!"
"No matter what kind of excellent performance he puts on, I won't be surprised!"
After talking about Kai, Doc Rivers then answered the question about the ownership of this season's Most Valuable Player trophy.
"With all due respect, Kai is this season's MVP, he is the best player I have ever coached!"
On this question, Doc Rivers was not at all ambiguous: "I have coached Pierce, Ray Allen, Garnett, Chris Paul..."
The Celtics Big Three and Paul, they are all top-notch star players in NBA history.
Whether it's their ability to lead a team or their individual offensive talents, they are all presences that can rank high in NBA history.
But today, Doc Rivers, who coached them, directly stated: "Kai is the best player he has seen in his coaching career!"
Just this one sentence carries absolute weight!
No surprise at all!
Doc Rivers' post-game interview also became the top news on major sports websites that night.
As Kai's dedicated television station, TNT quickly responded to Doc Rivers' statement.
Their headline read: The MVP race has ended early, who can stop Kai Chen from reaching the top!?
In the main body of the news, TNT once again listed Kai's various impressive statistics from the season so far.
And it specifically mentioned Head Coach Doc Rivers' remark in the post-game interview: Kai is the most outstanding player in his coaching career!
The season is not even halfway over, and for a team's Head Coach to say such a thing without fear of offending others.
Perhaps only Kai can do it!
Besides that, after the Clippers defeated the Milwaukee Bucks, their record has reached 29 wins and 2 losses.
This not only keeps them firmly in first place in the league but also puts them two wins ahead of the Golden State Warriors behind them.
TNT concluded the news by stating: No one can still stop Kai and the Clippers' progress!
The only ones who might be able to stop them are possibly the Golden State Warriors with their five superstars.
After all... the second battle between the two teams will be broadcast nationwide by them.
It has to be said that TNT knows how to leverage traffic...
As TNT's competitor, ESPN, seeing the other party resort to such tactics, was not to be outdone.
At the evening symposium, ESPN spent a large sum of money to simultaneously invite Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant to express their personal opinions on the issue of this season's MVP ownership.
"To be honest, no one would have thought that this season's MVP trophy would become a one-man show for Kai Chen!"
Facing the camera, Michael Jordan, as the elder statesman, was the first to express his personal opinion: "Based on this season's performance, I really can't think of anyone who can compete with him for the MVP trophy."
"Giannis might be the most competitive person, but unfortunately, he lost the showdown with Kai!"
Kobe Bryant also nodded in agreement on this topic.
"That's right, based on the players' current individual levels, Kai is indeed in a league of his own."
"I think the question of this season's MVP ownership is already settled!"
The statements from the two superstar kings also made it unnecessary to say anything more on this topic.
ESPN's evening symposium was still ongoing.
On American social media, the calls for Kai Chen to become MVP also surged to the top of the trending topics.
"Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant both said so, so what else could be doubtful about the ownership of the MVP trophy?"
"You can question Kobe, and you can question LeBron, but you cannot question the God of Basketball!"
"Kai is undoubtedly this season's Most Valuable Player!"
"As long as he doesn't get back with Kendall, then this season will be a season belonging to Kai Chen!"
