Seven Hundred and Twenty-Three: MVP Has Been Determined by Default
The moment Link scored, Madison Square Garden seemed to have turned into the FedEx Arena, and everyone was cheering for Link's great performance.
The Grizzlies players swarmed up, pulled Link up from the ground, and then touched him to the chest one by one and gave him a high five.
He scored 54 points at Madison Square Garden, which would have been an incredible achievement.
What's more, Link still achieved 50 points triple-double on this basis!
This is something no one has ever done in all of Madison Square Garden's years of history!
Even New York fans are proud to witness such a great performance!
When Link stood up, Anthony was already on the bench. Stoudemire continued to play in place of Anthony, which also means that the game officially entered garbage time.
After resisting for 45 minutes, the Knicks finally gave up.
Today, Anthony had 44 points, 5 assists and 8 rebounds. On any given night, Anthony's performance is enough to win both personal data and game results.
But today, he can only bow his head silently, hoping that this damn night will end soon.
Link did not hesitate because of this. He stood on the free throw line and made a steady free throw.
With 55 points, Link and Michael Jordan became the fourth-highest scoring player at Madison Square Garden.
After Link's extra free throw, the Grizzlies called a timeout. Everyone knows that the purpose of Joger's suspension this time is to replace all the main players.
Link has been out for too long today, it's time for him to take a break from garbage time.
So far, the duel between Link and Anthony is over. There were smiles on everyone's faces, and Link's performance made everyone feel that it was worth the ticket price.
Not everyone has the opportunity to witness history on the spot.
But not everyone in Madison Square Garden was happy about the game, like die-hard Knicks fan Spike Lee.
Anthony, the strongest player in New York, has tried his best, but he still can't stop Link, which makes Spike Lee unacceptable.
He knew that Link and the Grizzlies were strong, but he didn't expect them to be so strong.
What if I can't win the game? Then make an all-time record to win the game!
It sounds exaggerated, but that's what Link did today. And once broken, there are two historical records.
Spike Lee shook his head. Although he had witnessed the entire match with his own eyes, he still felt unbelievable in retrospect.
What kind of player can make breaking a record as common as eating and sleeping?
Spike Lee has been watching football in the garden since he was a child, and he has witnessed the rise and fall of countless great players.
The last time a player could make Spike Lee disbelieve his own eyes was Michael Jordan!
Spike Lee suddenly found that he was not only witnessing a great game, he was also witnessing the birth of a great player.
After Michael Jordan, another era that belongs to only one person is about to come.
Indeed, there were many great basketball players of the 90s. John Stockton, Reggie Miller, Hakeem Olajuwon, Karl Malone, Larry Payton, Isaiah Thomas...
This list cannot be filled on an A4 piece of paper.
But even so, everyone must admit that the 1990s were indeed dominated by Jordan. No matter how great the above superstars are, they are only supporting roles for Michael Jordan. Their existence will only make Jordan even greater.
Olajuwon was able to win two consecutive championships between the Bulls' two dynasties because Jordan went to play baseball in those two years.
Now, Spike Lee can't help but wonder, will Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James or even the younger Kevin Durant become supporting roles for Link?
Spike Lee did not continue to speculate on the fate of this alliance in the next ten years.
He stopped his thoughts and made a phone call to his assistant.
If Link was the greatest athlete of his era, he wouldn't want to miss the chance to make a documentary about Link.
That's right, he is the number one fan of the Knicks, and his team has just been hammered by the Chinese No. 0.
But apart from the fans, he has not forgotten that he is still a director.
Spike Lee took the phone, turned and left Madison Square Garden. He told his assistant to contact Link's manager Jeff Austin as soon as possible.
The careers of great players are a waste of time if no one records them.
Just two minutes after Spike Lee left the field early, the electronic buzzer sounded for the end of the game. 118 to 101, the New York Knicks finally lost their first home game after the All-Star Game by a huge 17-point difference.
Anthony stood up, glanced at the big screen at the scene, and left silently.
Several reporters tried to go up to interview Anthony, but Anthony passed by them silently as if he didn't see them.
"Carmelon's mood is not difficult to understand. After all, after the loss of this game, the Knicks are 20 wins and 33 losses! They are getting farther and farther away from the playoffs." The on-site commentary explained Anthony's mood.
But in fact, the reason why Anthony is so lonely is not just because of losing.
Anthony has become so unwilling now because this is the first time he has tried his best and still can't handle an opponent.
Anthony has competed with great players such as James, Wade and Kobe, creating countless classic games. Although everyone wins and loses in these battles, even if they lose, Anthony will never lose so badly.
In 2009, in the classic Western Conference finals between the Nuggets and the Lakers, Kobe and Anthony forced each other to make a better opponent. At that time, Kobe and the Lakers were powerful and well-deserved league overlords. In that way, Anthony still led the Nuggets to the championship Lakers for 6 games.
But what about today? Anthony gave everything he had, but there was no chance of a victory at all.
When he and Link struggled for consecutive rebounds without success, and then pulled Link under the basket and couldn't stop him from scoring, Anthony knew that he couldn't win.
This is the biggest blow Anthony has suffered since he entered the league.
The situation of Link and Anthony is just the opposite. He wants to leave the court quickly, but now the reporter will definitely not let Link succeed.
The first player to record a 50-point triple-double at Madison Square Garden, and the first player to have two 50-point triple-doubles in a single season.
Based on these two records alone, the reporters would not let Link go easily.
Link was also a little surprised when he faced the reporter's camera. He only knew that scoring 50 points at Madison Square Garden was a hurdle, but he didn't expect to break two more records inadvertently.
Having said that, the records that Link has broken this season are probably too many to count on one hand.
The longest winning streak in the league, the fifth player in history to get a triple-double in the Christmas game, three 10-game winning streaks in a single season, the first player in NBA history to have both the three-point contest championship and the slam dunk contest championship... .. those records, combined with the two achievements just tonight, are enough to make this season a great one.
Link was very happy to learn that he had broken two more records, but not satisfied. He knows that until he gets those two things, his season won't be great.
One, the MVP that was just one step away from last season. The other one is the championship.
Since the 21st century, only the Los Angeles Lakers have completed consecutive championships. Whether the Grizzlies can win the championship this year, no one can say.
But what about MVP...
After the game with the Knicks, ESPN released the latest MVP rankings. Link beat James, Durant, Anthony and Chris Paul to the top of the MVP rankings!
And this is already the fourth consecutive period that Link has been ranked first.
Link believes that his votes this year will not be so close to James. He will definitely be able to take the highest honor on behalf of the player with an overwhelming advantage.
The golden age of Link has officially begun!
