One Thousand Three Hundred and Sixteen: History Is Happening at This Moment

Everyone was dumbfounded. The last time Link scored 61 points against the Lakers, it was already a very crazy record.

What about today? Link scored 61 points in three quarters!

21 points in the first quarter and 18 points in the second quarter. Almost everyone believed that Link would collapse in the second half, and Frank Vogel confidently believed that the Lakers would control the situation in the second half.

He didn't believe that such a low probability thing would happen to him.

As a result, Link scored a single-quarter high of 22 points in the third quarter!

Shock, despair, fear, disbelief... Link's performance today was a spiritual shock to everyone present.

Some old Lakers fans were surprised and moved because Link almost recreated the legend that Kobe left behind today!

Kobe himself was also shocked. He knew very well how much energy it took to perform such a performance.

If Kobe had played against the Raptors in back-to-back games, he thought there was absolutely no chance of him scoring 81 points.

Link's situation today is much worse than when Kobe faced the Raptors!

But Link is still moving towards that record, 20 points, only 20 points away.

Speaking of which, it is not easy to score 20 points in a single game, let alone a single quarter.

It is actually very difficult to go from 61 points to 80 points.

But Link has been beaten like this today. You want to tell him that it's difficult?

An 80-point record, a 33-game winning streak record, and two historical-level records are in front of you. Are you going to give up easily?

No wonder Mike Breen just shouted that the Lakers are finished, because now, Link has no reason to lose!

There was no way he would let the Lakers take away the victory.

On the Lakers bench, the players were lifeless and solemn.

Did they play poorly today? No, they showed their strength as the second best player in the Western Conference. They once pushed the Grizzlies, who had 46 wins and 3 losses, into dire straits.

Did being 8 points behind make them desperate? No, it's just 8 points. In today's era of explosive scoring, it's not a big gap at all.

But the Lakers players were still depressed, defeated by Link alone!

In October, Link scored 61 points in a single game without overtime, which was already amazing enough.

Now, with 61 points in three quarters, the psychological shadow area of ​​the Lakers players has directly become infinite!

Although they performed well today, even though the 8-point difference was not enough to kill the game.

But the Lakers players were still severely hit.

They had no idea what else Link could do in the fourth quarter.

They have no idea if they have any chance of winning!

Frank Vogel was also dumbfounded. He and the players stared at each other and couldn't hold back a word for a long time.

At halftime, he could confidently tell everyone: "Link will definitely shut down in the second half."

But what now? Continue to say that Link will definitely not be able to perform such an outstanding performance in the fourth quarter?

Who believes this now?

The key point was that Vogel himself had no choice. He racked his brains and thought of many ways to contain Link, but none of them worked!

All angles, all distances, all ways... No matter how the Lakers defend, Link can continue to score with his superb one-on-one skills.

An attack without a solution is really an attack without a solution. Frank Vogel had never seen any player score as unscrupulously on the court as Link did.

All kinds of difficult, all kinds of forced shots, but damn he can score!

What can you do? Really sending Dudley to strangle Link's neck?

In addition to Vogel as the head coach, James, as the team leader, is also mute at this time.

"I'm sorry LeBron, but tonight, I have to win."

Link's words kept spinning in James' mind, preventing him from summoning the courage to speak up.

Because he knew that Link was serious. He knew that Link would continue his crazy performance in the fourth quarter.

Speechless, a long silent time.

The players were silent and the coach had nothing to say.

The entire Lakers team was fooled by Link and did not know how to deal with an opponent who could score 61 points in three quarters.

At this time, the still experienced Kidd stood up. After all, Kidd has seen the world and can still hold his own at critical moments.

"In this case, we will fight Link until the end. I believe that through close cooperation, we will definitely be able to burst out with greater power than Link alone. We have worked hard for so long, can we just give up the victory like this? Fight until The last second, the last ball! As long as he can win, it doesn't make any sense for Link to score 100 points!"

Kidd's shout made the players raise their heads slightly.

Yeah, there's no way to stop Link. But if they win the game, the Lakers still have a chance!

No matter what, only the one who wins the game is considered a winner. No matter how good the loser's data is, it cannot change the fact of failure.

It’s the last section, and both sides still don’t want to fulfill each other!

The crazy performances are destined to continue.

When the buzzer sounded to start the fourth quarter, everyone watching in Staples stood.

Even the big stars in the front row stood up and cheered wildly for the game.

Tonight, the only star in the Staples Center is Link.

Everyone else can only clap their hands and fight alone.

Link continues to fight. Now, no one still believes in the nonsense that "Link's performance cannot last until the end."

God knows how Link held on, but he just held on!

Link also put aside all distracting thoughts. It was the last 12 minutes and there was nothing to worry about.

Again, if 61 points is not enough, then 71 points. If 71 points is not enough, then 81 points!

With continued heavy punches, Link believed that he would eventually knock the Lakers down.

The battle between the two sides was about to break out. As soon as the fourth quarter started, the two teams entered the rhythm of hand-to-hand combat.

Danny Green penetrated Yang from beyond the three-point line and hit a three-pointer. But as soon as he returned, Link made another zero-degree drift shot to score.

James pushed the already exhausted Link into the paint and succeeded in a layup. However, in the next round, Link suddenly pulled up from outside the three-point line and shot James in the face.

The Lakers didn't want to give up, but Link was still not stopped.

If someone wants to study the diversity of singles skills in a basketball game, just show him a video of this game.

Link's skills are so rich that they don't even have the same skills.

Later, the Lakers players desperately discovered that some fans in the Staples Center actually started cheering for Link!

People obviously want to witness miracles more than victory!

Everyone had a cheerleading expression on their faces. Everyone became Link's fans and cheered for Link.

From the starters to the substitutes, every Lakers player covered their heads with their hands and opened their mouths. Link took away their fighting spirit to win.

The game continued to be tense, and Link continued to score.

His personal offense was like cutting flesh with a knife, hurting the Lakers bit by bit, time and time again.

He fell down again and again, wiping sweat with his collar again and again. But every time, Link stood up in time and completed his mission.

When the game reached the last two minutes, sure enough, the Lakers were the first to be discouraged.

They have failed in three consecutive rounds, and the point difference has been stretched to 9 points!

But Link still didn't step on the brakes, and the chariot without reverse gear was still rushing forward.

He's still going on!

1 minute and 48 seconds before the end of the game, Link hit a mid-range pull-up jumper from a zero-degree angle, scoring 78 points!

20 seconds later, Link broke through and was pulled down by James.

James is anxious, he knows that Link is close to the record, and he doesn't want to become the second Jaylen Rose!

Therefore, seeing Link break through for a layup, James couldn't help but take action.

But the referee's whistle sounded ruthlessly, and Link stood on the free throw line and hit consecutive free throws, 80 points!

Link became the third player in NBA history to score 80 points in a game!

At this time, the Grizzlies already led the Lakers by 12 points! There is more than a minute left in the game, and Link still has the possibility to continue to score points.

Everyone's minds went blank, they couldn't even believe what was actually happening in front of their eyes!

Mike Brin even forgot to shout loudly. Looking at the number "80" written in the column of Link's data on the big screen, Mike Brin felt extremely magical.

The miracle came so suddenly that no one could accept it for a while.

Wade rubbed his eyes. Link's performance today really deserves 10 points.

Kobe's face was expressionless, he was completely immersed in Link's performance.

Randolph and Tony Allen were jumping up and down with excitement, and their exaggerated celebrations have become one of the sidelines of this game.

When the Grizzlies attacked again, all Staples fans shouted one word: "1 more! One more goal!"

Only one more goal is needed for Link to break Kobe's record of 81 points! With just one more goal, Link will become the player with the highest score in a single game in modern basketball.

Just one more goal is needed, and Link will have another asset to compete with Jordan, and another miracle to become a god.

!

In the last 48 seconds of the game, Link, who broke through to the three-point line, was double-teamed by Davis and James.

Link wasn't timid, nor was he overly excited about breaking the record.

On the contrary, Link was quite calm at the moment.

He knew what he wanted, and he knew that this was the final blow!

Link quickly collected the ball before James and Davis double-teamed him, and made a sudden jump shot!

James and Davis both jumped up and blocked Link's shot.

But Link still threw the ball calmly. He was exhausted. Every time he took off, it was very difficult. Every time he took a shot, his body felt exhausted.

But he was able to find his soft touch and his best offensive state.

The basketball passed over the heads of James and Davis and fell toward the basket.

Everyone held their breath, time seemed to slow down, and the air seemed to freeze.

Link made a historic shot, the one that decided the outcome of the game.

He landed slowly, feeling light and airy.

Completely exhausted.

Link squatted directly on the ground after landing, and then stared at the basketball.

He really did his best, and his last dance was extremely gorgeous.

History is happening at this moment.

"Oh!!!! Link hit a three-pointer!!!! 83 points! 83 points! Link rewrote the NBA's historical scoring record list. He became the highest scorer in a single game since the NBA began to have official statistics in 1985. The tallest player, bar none!"

The entire Staples crowd was excited. At this moment, everyone was a fan of Link.

Even Kobe, who had been very calm just now, raised his arms at that moment!

Link watched the orange basketball jump into the net and smiled.

He also wanted to be like Kobe, who after scoring 81 points, raised his arms high and walked out of the court as a winner.

But he just couldn't stand up anymore, and Link's gas tank finally bottomed out.

But it doesn’t matter. If it’s ugly, just make it ugly...

Link could finally sit down on the ground and take a good breath...

Finally I can rest.
