Seven Hundred and Sixty-Three: If It Is Really More than the Data, It Is 1 Times More than You (Two/Five)
On November 11, 2013, against the Pacers, Link had 53 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists. The battle between him and George became a classic.
On December 15 of the same year, Link scored 45 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists against the Lakers, making the giants completely fall.
On February 18, 2014, against the Knicks, Link scored 55 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds. While scoring his sixth triple-double in a single season and setting a career-high scoring record, Link also became the first single in NBA history. A player with two 50-point triple-doubles this season.
Playing the Blazers on March 30, Link scored 33 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists, scoring the eighth triple-double in a single season, the most in the league.
If that's not enough, that's okay, because Link has a lot more to offer.
The longest winning streak in the league, the fifth player in history to have a triple-double in the Christmas game, the first team in history to win four 10-game winning streaks in a single season, the ultimate anti-lore Thunder, the first in NBA history A player with both a three-point contest and a slam dunk contest, the first player to score a 50-point triple-double at Madison Square Garden...
And, led the team to break the Bulls' great 72-win record in the regular season, with an incredible 74 wins. And thus became the first team in NBA history to get 70 wins for two consecutive seasons! In one fell swoop, the Grizzlies set two records that could almost never be broken again.
In just one season, taking honors can be soft, and it is estimated that only Link can do such a thing.
Neither James nor Durant can compare to Link in terms of regular season honors.
It is estimated that only Durant himself thinks he can get a share of the MVP selection. In fact, the gap between him and Link in the regular season is palpable.
Durant was a little too confident in himself this time. In the words of Chinese fans, "Durant has no 13 numbers in his heart!"
Link has undoubtedly had a great season, and at least for the regular season, Link's performance is unparalleled.
Shaquille O'Neal in 2000 was just as great. He was just one vote short of becoming the first unanimous MVP in NBA history. And this practice of deliberately not voting for the best players has been criticized for more than a decade.
Even fellow journalists believed that the vote of the year was really ill-considered. Great records should be created by players with their strength, not by reporters.
All media and journalists who are eligible to vote must use their rights carefully, and must be worthy of their responsibilities.
Therefore, this time, when another player with the strength to win the unanimous MVP appeared, the reporters did not dare to vote indiscriminately.
They don't want to be scolded for more than ten years because of random voting, they don't want to bury a great record into their own hands. Even those media who don't like Link don't dare to mess around. They must acknowledge Link's greatness this season with a neutral attitude.
Thus, the first unanimous MVP in NBA history was born.
Link's presence in a movement thought to be dominated by blacks and whites turned that notion upside down.
No one could have imagined that the greatest MVP in history would actually be a Chinese player.
Of course, there are still people who question the title of "the greatest MVP in history".
This is not surprising. Link remembers that in the original history, when Curry was elected unanimous MVP, he would still be questioned.
No matter how well you do, how well you do it, there are bound to be nitpicks.
But these voices of doubt were so insignificant that they were completely drowned out by the voice of praising Link.
Link was also very humble in his MVP award speech in the afternoon. One of the words he said the most was thanks, thanking family, teammates, the media who voted for him, Nike, managers, the late Upshaw, and more.
At least 80% of his speech is about gratitude.
People thought that Link would continue his usual style of scolding the air in his speech, but Link knew what to say on what occasion. Although he is a villain, he is not a fool.
Link's humble attitude has made countless fans turn to him. It turns out that Link is more than just a villain. He just acts as a bad guy when it's time to be bad, but he's definitely not a bad guy with a bad character.
This MVP turned out to be so full of charm.
After the speech, it was originally Link who was going to hold the MVP trophy for a photo. But Link didn't do that and invited all his teammates to take a photo with him.
In his words, "Everyone on our team deserves a share of this MVP trophy."
After the awards and speeches, the media entered the free questioning session. Most of the reporters were congratulating Link, but there were also a few reporters eager to hype the topic, ruining the happy atmosphere.
"Link, to be the first unanimous MVP in NBA history, your greatness no longer needs to be described in words. But even so, there are still many people who think you are not strong enough. For example, Kevin Durant. "
Link on the stage seemed to laugh even more when he heard the reporter mention Durant.
Link really wanted to know how the black-bellied Du knew how he reacted when he won the MVP.
"Kevin said in an interview yesterday that you have to show MVP-level performance in the playoffs to be worthy of being an MVP. Kevin scored 38 points, 12 rebounds and 9 assists in the last game. Quasi-triple-double, so do you think you can beat Kevin tonight?"
Link nodded after listening. Link already knew what Durant said yesterday. But Link doesn't plan to compete with Durant. After all, Durant is the challenger!
"It makes sense, but basketball games don't just look at the statistics. If you just look at the statistics, the points I got in the MVP selection were twice as high as Durant!"
As soon as Link opened his mouth, he gave Durant a crit! Durant thought that his score would be close to Link's, but in fact, he almost didn't even keep the second position. Now that Link is making fun of this incident again, Durant must be vomiting blood.
"But I'm definitely not going to talk about this kind of data. We all know that the gap between Kevin and me is not that big."
After hearing Link's second sentence, the reporters couldn't help laughing.
The gap is not that big. The implication is, "There is still a gap between us, but it's not twice as big."
Link seems to be a completely different person now. When he was speaking just now, he was very warm, and at this time, every word he said was like a knife that pierced his heart.
Again, Link only turns bad when he needs to play the bad guy.
"You mean, don't you care if you can surpass Durant's stats in the next game?" The reporters finally asked clearly, and if this goes on, Durant will be psychologically shadowed by Link. .
"Of course I don't care, I'm the MVP, I only care about this. Even if I swallow all the data in tonight's game, I'm still the MVP. I said, I'm not a challenger, Kevin is."
After Link finished speaking, he turned and left the media reception room with his MVP trophy in his arms.
Spouting with Durant is the most boring, because Link thinks Durant's level of trash talk is really bad. It's boring to always crush opponents.
However, Link did not pay attention to Durant now. The trouble of the Los Angeles Clippers has not been completely solved.
Last game, Paul's great night was destroyed by himself. With Paul's character, he wouldn't give up.
Whether Link's MVP night can be completed depends on the result of this game.
And Chris Paul, no doubt, is very willing to fight back with fire and destroy Link's great night...
