Why is McGrady known for 35 seconds and 13 seconds, while Murray is not known for 32 seconds and 12 seconds.
Speaking of McGrady, we will definitely mention his classic moment "Meddy Moment". Judging from his entire career, McGrady Moment is McGrady's highest light. In those 35 seconds, he showed his offensive talent to the fullest, as if he was the God of Basketball at that moment. Although 21 years have passed since McGrady's moment and is still talked about, it can be said to be a household name in the NBA. But I tell you that in addition to McGrady, Murray also had a "Murray moment". He scored 12 points in 32 seconds, but his fame is quite different from McGrady moment. If McGrady is always well-known, then Murray's 32 seconds and 12 minutes is really little known. So what causes this situation? After reading my analysis, you will naturally understand.
The first is the popularity of the two. Before joining the Rockets, McGrady was already a superstar in the league. He has won the scoring champion twice in the Magic, twice in one match. He has gained countless fans with his gorgeous style and has won the All-Star Eastern Conference tickets. Behind the Rockets, with the support of Yao Ming's influence, McGrady's popularity reached its peak.
, and Murray was different. He was just a rookie at the time and was not a high-ranking player before entering the league. His attention was really average. Even though they are all amazing scoring shows, the gap in attention is also due to the large gap in popularity.
The second is that the game highlights were different. At that time, the Rockets faced the powerful Spurs, and the Spurs were the defending champion, so the attention was naturally high. The "GDP" combination with military advisor Popovich has always been very competitive in the Wild West. Watch Yao Ming and Duncan in the interior, and watch McGrady fights with Demon Sword and Parker in the outside, and there are many highlights in the whole audience.
Murray's Nuggets' strength was far less than that of now, and it was difficult to enter the playoffs at that time. They were the Trail Blazers, and the Trail Blazers were the playoff stars at the top. The Trail Blazers are only Lillard and McCollum, and the quality of the stars is not as good as the Spurs' "GDP", so if there are fewer highlights, everyone's attention will be lower. If it were the Nuggets' strength now and Murray had such performance, his influence would definitely be huge.
Finally, the game was exciting. McGrady scored 35.13 minutes, and many home fans left the court because everyone felt that the Rockets would definitely lose. This is the situation where he will lose. McGrady created a miracle. He scored 13 points in a row with free throws and free throws, directly reversing the game. Until the end of the game, the Spurs were still in a state of brain downtime and they were stunned by McGrady.
Murray's 32 seconds and 12 points occurred in garbage moments. At that time, there was no suspense in the victory or defeat of the game, and the opponent's main players were all defeated. The players on both sides are basically paddling, just waiting for the game to end and then go home to rest. Under such circumstances, Murray scored 12 points, which would naturally appear much dull. He scored 12 points like this, not only did not cause much sensation, but he was also ridiculed to score points.
So, McGrady and Murray scored a solo show, although it looks close, their influence is very different. This has something to do with the player's own strength, popularity, game process, and game highlights. McGrady was always heart-wrenching, while Murray was dull, which eventually led to a huge gap in influence in the league.
