NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 249 Barkley’s divine prediction! A new triple-double record is born!

At the end of the Knicks' game against the Pacers, Barkley said something.

"Reggie's injury this time might be an opportunity for Lin! An opportunity to set countless horrific records! I will not miss any of his next games this month! I will definitely watch them all! If you watch less, you may miss a historic moment!”

What Barkley said is absolutely correct! He successfully predicted or summarized in advance Lin Tian's performance in the last 20 days of the season!

First of all, after defeating the Knicks, the Pacers' record this season has reached 29 wins and 12 losses!

They have the last 9 games left to play!

But the remaining schedule is much easier, because these 9 games will be played in almost 20 days. This is the strategy set by the league.

At the beginning of the season, there were crazy back-to-back games, and there were even four games in five days. By the end of the season, the schedule became relatively easy again, and the teams basically did not have to play back-to-back games.

As for the reason, the league believes: If your players are going to get injured, then you should play safely and comfortably at the beginning and end of the season, and then in the playoffs, give me your best performance. , don't carry those bad states into the playoffs.

To put it simply: the league is making every effort to ensure the excitement of the playoffs!

It's hard to say what other teams are like, but for Lin Tian and the Pacers, although they are missing Miller, they did play the most exciting game of the season in the last 20 days of the season!

One day after defeating the Knicks, the Pacers returned to Indiana, where they faced three consecutive Western Conference teams: the Warriors, Rockets and Suns.

After three games, the Pacers once again won a complete victory!

And not just a complete victory, Lin Tian played perfectly in every game of these three games!

对阵勇士，3节比赛轰下29分12篮板11助攻3抢断！

Against the Rockets, although Lin Tian only scored 16 points, he only played 28 minutes and also contributed 11 rebounds and 11 assists! Lin Tian’s triple-double journey is still continuing!

Then against the Suns, the Suns played in a very good competitive state. The team's top scorer Gugliotta had an explosive touch, smashing the Pacers' entire inside line and scoring 39 points and 15 rebounds. Large size two pairs.

The team's head point guard Jason Kidd showed his versatility and scored a very beautiful triple-double: 12 points, 15 rebounds and 16 assists! The forward pairing of Clifford Robinson and Rex Chapman even worked together, hitting 9 three-pointers and scoring 38 points together!

In the fourth quarter of the game, the Suns hit 7 consecutive goals and still had an 4-point advantage 8 minutes before the end of the game!

But it turns out that the Knicks' 1-point lead in the last minute was not stable, not to mention you still had 7 minutes left?

The last 4 minutes became Lin Tian's stage alone. He shot inside and outside and scored 4 consecutive points in 16 minutes. Not only will he be known as the "glove successor", he is also considered to be one of the top three defensive point guards in the league today. Germany was completely blown away, and he once again scored a triple-double of 45 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists!

After this game, many people discovered one thing: If you are anxious until the end of the game against the Pacers, it might not be a good thing, because Lin Tian's ability to play at critical moments is too strong. It's scary, he will lead the team to complete the comeback with a wonderful performance that will be discussed for a month!

Perhaps it is because of this that the Pacers' next two opponents, the Canadian duo of the Raptors and Grizzlies, did not show much resistance on the court.

The Pacers clocked out in the third quarter of two consecutive games and continued their winning streak.

In these two games, Lin Tian had no doubts, once again getting two consecutive triple-doubles!

The Pacers' winning streak has reached 6 games, and Lin Tian's consecutive 3-doubles have also reached 6 games!

This number has ranked fourth in NBA history!

You know, this is the 90s!

Westbrook hasn't emerged yet, and a triple-double is not a bad statistic!

On the contrary, in this era, a triple-double is an extremely rare statistic that best reflects a player's versatility! Even in many cases, in this era, or even the first decade of the 21st century, a triple-double is not used to describe a player's versatility.

unuseful!

20+5+5 is considered an all-around star. Jordan, Pippen, and Drexler almost all have this standard, and they are all considered to be super all-around top stars!

If there is 20+7+7, such as Grant Hill, then he is an unparalleled super genius, a born all-around monster!

Triple-double, in this era, is a very difficult statistic to obtain. Many star-level players will never get it once in their entire careers. There are even some people who will shoot at the basket for a triple-double. Then grab the rebounds and get a triple-double.

Or to use another analogy, in the 90s, 'Big O' Oscar Robertson, who only had one MVP and one non-FMVP championship in his career, was firmly in the top ten in history! And some media will even rank him in the top five or even on the Presidential Hill!

why?

Just because of his versatility, just because of his 181 career triple-doubles and his single-season triple-double average!

His historical record of triple-doubles per game and 181 triple-doubles is recognized by the NBA as one of the most difficult records to break in history. It was achieved in the same year as Chamberlain's 50 points per game and Archibald's. Terrifying records such as the scoring champion and assists champion are called the NBA record ceiling. It is considered that no one can achieve or surpass it!

Triple-double is one of the most luxurious and coveted data in this era!

In this era without Westbrook, James, Harden and others, the entire league may only have a triple-double once a month!

In terms of historical rankings, except for Oscar Robertson who leads the list with 181 times, followed by Magic Johnson with 138 times, no third person has more than 100 triple-doubles.

Chamberlain, who ranked third in history, had only 78 triple-doubles, and Bird ranked fourth with 59 triple-doubles.

On the list of consecutive triple-doubles, the first place is Wilt Chamberlain in the 67-68 season. He scored 9 consecutive triple-doubles, ranking first in NBA history!

Then there are the 7 triple-doubles held by Oscar Robertson and Michael Jordan at the same time, tied for second in history.

Further down, there is Lin Tian now!

He only needs to get one more triple-double to tie Jordan and Robertson for second place in history. If he gets 1 times, he will be second alone. If he gets 2 times in a row, a new historical record will be born. !

At this time, what Barkley said before seems even more correct!

Lin Tian's next games, especially the games before he broke off consecutive triple-doubles, every game is a new record!

Lin Tian did not disappoint his fans. His consecutive triple-double journey has no intention of stopping and continues crazily!

On April 4, Lin Tian, ​​who returned to the City Plaza Arena, faced the invading Trail Blazers and turned on his all-around mode again. He scored 28 points, 24 assists, 10 rebounds and 13 steals, scoring his seventh three-pointer. Double, tying Jordan and Oscar Robertson, tied for second in NBA history!

But being tied is obviously not Lin Tian's end!

On April 4, the last day of April, the Pacers once again went to the West to face another opponent of theirs, the Los Angeles Clippers!

This bad team at the bottom of the league has long been thinking about Elton Brand from Duke University. They have no idea about this season, and they have no idea about winning the game and blocking Lin Tian's triple-double. Not interested.

As long as it doesn't prevent them from getting Brand, then anything is fine!

Anything?

After confirming that the Clippers did not want to play at all, Lin Tian no longer wanted to play chess with these bad guys. He played 21 minutes in the first half and scored 18 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists! It only took half a game to score his eighth consecutive triple-double!

With Lin Tian in such explosive condition, how could the Clippers withstand the game?

They were already 24 points behind at the end of the first half. Less than 3 minutes into the second half, the Clippers fell behind by 30 points!

It seems that the more they lose, the greater the probability that they will get the No. 1 pick and take Brand. The Clippers played with no resistance!

Then, Bird believed that this kind of bad game would affect the physical and mental health of the players and give them nightmares after playing the game, so Bird played cleanly and played only 3 minutes in the third quarter. Lin Tian and others were all replaced on the court.

Even Bird didn't dare to let Carter, Mullin and other main players come on the bench. He was really afraid that it would affect the team's preparations for the next game.

In the next game, the Pacers will face a strong enemy!

As a result, the fans were surprised to find that even though there were more than 20 minutes left in the game, they hardly recognized any of the players on the court!

Buckner, Hoiberg, Ellington, Lewis, Pope!

These five members of the Pacers will most likely play almost the entire second half!

And these guys who had been holding back for a long time and barely played in the first three quarters, after coming on the court, they were like tigers coming out of the cage, biting the Clippers kittens!

In this game, Pope scored a career-high 8 points and 7 rebounds, Lewis scored a career-high 11 points, Ellington also scored 10 points, tying a career-high, and Buckner sent 6 assists. , which is also a career high!

All four Pacers set career records and played their best game of the season.

Well, the only one who failed to break any records is Hoiberg, but Hoiberg played in the conference finals and finals as a rotation player last season! On that occasion, he once scored in double figures in a single game and hit key shots. He really didn't bother to break a small record in such a game!

And with the Pacers' third unit playing so brilliantly, the Clippers naturally continued to have no resistance and were unable to counterattack.

120: 63!

The Clippers were defeated by 57 points and suffered their worst loss of the season.

But of course, they didn't take it too seriously. Losing, there is no difference between 20 points, 30 points and 50 points! You lose anyway, and you get your salary anyway.

If they can get the No. 1 pick at the end of the season, then the Clippers management might be able to give some bonuses to the players!

The boss will definitely say cheerfully: "Well done, well played, and a great loss!"

Then, the Pacers did not return to Indiana because they had to play another game in Los Angeles!

They want to challenge the Los Angeles duo continuously!

In the same stadium, facing two completely different teams!

The Clippers are determined to win Brand and rebuild, but the Lakers only have a championship goal!

This game between the Pacers and the Lakers, Lin Tian VS the Three Musketeers of the Lakers, was naturally broadcast live across the United States!

Everyone wants to see if Lin Tian can score a triple-double for the ninth consecutive game!

They want to see Lin Tian break the record!

Of course, the most important thing is that all fans want to see this peak showdown!

Although the Lakers this season are only ranked fourth in the Western Conference due to factors such as the adjustment after the big trade and the readjustment after the head coach change, as long as they are the Lakers and as long as they are still playing, the Lakers must be the focus of the entire league. And one of the most watched teams!

No way, who told this to be Los Angeles?

However, a large number of NBA fans are looking forward to a battle between the dragons and tigers. They want to see whether the two sides can compete, whether they can create some sparks, a good ending to the regular season, and a good entertainment for the fans. When they were having fun again, as they were warming up for the playoffs, Stern threw the table in the office!

"Who the hell is the head coach of the Lakers? Find me the mafia and kill him! Kill him! Rest? At this time, this kind of game is broadcast live across the United States, and he gives me a rest for O'Neal and Kobe?" Who does he think he is? Phil Jackson? Damn it! Even if Phil Jackson rests in this kind of game, I will kill him!"

Yes, just two hours before the start of the game, news came from the Lakers that Kobe and O'Neal, the inside and outside partners, will miss the rest of the regular season due to groin and wrist injuries. They will take good care of their injuries and prepare for the season. Postgame!

Other times, Stern wouldn't be so angry, but this year, it happened to be the Lakers' game against the Pacers.

Who doesn’t know that the league has seen a serious decline in the number of people attending games and watching games on TV this year? It’s a time when some exciting games are needed to restore the audience and reputation, and bring the audience back as soon as possible?

But at such a difficult time, at such a critical time, you, the head coach of the Lakers, give me a rest?

Stern is really going to explode!

This kind of behavior is basically confronting him and deliberately trying to mess with him!

FUXX!

Test my bottom line, right?

Do you really think you are the Lakers and there is nothing I can do to you?

Here, when Stern was thinking of ways to take revenge on the Lakers and their little-known head coach, the man in front of Stern had been silent and was frightened by the angry president, who was a little at a loss. The assistant suddenly said: "Mr. President, do you still want to contact the mafia?"

"No contact! No contact! Get out! Get out! No, you stay here. You have a way to contact the mafia, right? Let them give you a bullet, let them kill you, and then pour it directly Cement, throw it to the bottom of the Mississippi River! Get lost!"

Stern is really furious!

Just as angry as he was this night, there was Larry Bird!

Because this night, the Pacers played their worst game of the season!

Maybe it was the 57-point victory in the last game that made the team too relaxed. Maybe it was the knowledge before the game that neither of the Lakers' two leaders would play, so everyone in the Pacers didn't take the Lakers seriously and thought it was just a game. In a formal game, a splash of water can easily defeat the Lakers.

But the result was that the Pacers were at a disadvantage from the beginning of the game! Although Kobe Bryant and O'Neal of the Lakers both wore suits and sat on the sidelines during this game, Glenn Rice played his best game since joining the Lakers!

He threw in three three-pointers in the first quarter and scored 3 points, and then in the second quarter he threw in three three-pointers and scored 17 points!

Throughout the first half of the game, Rice was on full fire, scoring 31 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists! Under his leadership, the Lakers led the Pacers by 19 points in the first half!

As for the Pacers, only Lin Tian's performance could be called normal, but it was just normal. He made 17 of 7 shots and scored 19 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists. But Lin Tian obviously also had 4 points, rebounds and assists today. He was not in his best condition. He made turnovers in the first half of the game!

During the halftime break, Bird got angry the most in the past two years. He spent a full 20 minutes spitting at his players, doing crazy output, blaming his players for not working hard and being too aggressive. Underestimating the enemy and taking oneself too seriously.

The crazy talk didn't help the Pacers regain their form. Maybe they just don't want to win tonight, maybe they just can't find any playing form tonight, and sometimes, state and intensity are not the same thing. Extremely strange.

When it doesn’t exist, it just doesn’t exist. No matter how hard you try or risk your life, it just won’t come!

On the other hand, when your condition comes, it’s about how you shoot and how you score, and how you play smoothly! He just can perform at a super level!

In this game, the Lakers and Pacers are two extremes.

The Lakers are in good shape, but the Pacers are playing badly!

Although Lin Tian still got a triple-double in the end, this was his ninth consecutive triple-double. He has tied the record of consecutive triple-doubles with Wilt Chamberlain of the 'Big Dipper', and shares the first place in history with Chamberlain!

But this historical record is obviously not worth celebrating. At least at the press conference after the game, both Lin Tian and Bird showed little interest in this topic.

Bird said that this was the worst game the team had played in his two years of coaching. He did not allow the team to lose, let alone allow the team to be upset by the opponent, but the important thing was the way of losing. Losing in such a bad state and method!

From top to bottom, the team is too underestimating the enemy and too relaxed, so that it will be upset by the Lakers without the OK combination!

Lin Tian also said that he doesn't care about his own data at all. He doesn't care how many points he scores, how many rebounds and assists he grabs, or if he loses. None of that is worth showing off, celebrating, or recording!

Victory is much more important than data!

To put it simply, Lin Tian and Bird were particularly disrespectful to the media tonight!

They were both in an equally bad mood!

This attitude also makes it impossible for the media to show off and report on Lin Tian's record of consecutive triple-doubles that tied history. They can only report things like "Lin claimed that the data is useless in front of victory."

This gimmick is much more boring than a historical record of this level!

Similarly, it was precisely because of Lin Tian and Bird's dissatisfaction and lack of cooperation that the Pacers didn't care at all about the two awards announced by the league the day before the game.

April Player of the Month and April Rookie of the Month!

Lin Tian relied on his triple-double performance in 8 consecutive games and his courage to lead the team to 8 consecutive victories. He successfully defeated Jordan and won his Player of the Month for the second consecutive month!

虽然这个月乔丹场均能够拿下34.1分5.3篮板6.2助攻，带队成绩也比步行者更好，达到了13胜2负，而步行者队只有10胜4负。    但尼克斯的两场失利，全部来自于林天和步行者，而林天本月可是场均能够拿到33.2分7.5篮板11.1助攻的顶级数据！并且还有连续8场的三双表现。

Therefore, Lin Tian surpassed Jordan to win the Player of the Month, and he definitely deserves it!

Anyway, no one in the entire league thinks Jordan deserves the award more than Lin Tian.

After losing two consecutive face-to-face dialogues, how can I still have the nerve to win an award?

After winning both direct duels, winning Player of the Month for two consecutive months, and producing such historical data, Lin Tian has basically locked in the MVP for this season in advance!

He is very likely to successfully win his first MVP trophy in the fourth year of his career! In this way, Lin Tian will also complete the Grand Slam: MVP, Rookie Game MVP, All-Star MVP, and Finals MVP!

Although it was not completed within one season, looking at the history of the NBA, people who can achieve this kind of results are definitely very rare. One by one, they are all the top stars in history!

After becoming the MVP, Lin Tian will officially enter the level of the top player in history!

Similarly, the Rookie of the Month award was given to Vince Carter for the second consecutive month! This month, due to Miller's absence, Carter's performance is getting better and better. He averaged 17 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists per game. He is already the team's second leading scorer and top attacker after Lin Tian. !

Winning the Rookie of the Month for two consecutive months has also allowed Carter to basically lock in the Rookie of the Season! He came from behind and surpassed Jason Williams, who played with a gorgeous and elegant style, and Paul Pierce, who played with a practical and steady style.

Carter not only has a high probability of winning the Rookie of the Year award this season, but he is also very likely to become the second rookie player to win the Sixth Man of the Year Award after Lin Tian!

However, after this unexpected defeat against the Lakers, neither Lin Tian nor Carter celebrated or showed too much excitement. They are not in a good mood.

In addition to the upset loss to the Lakers in this game, it was also because after losing this game, the gap between them and the Knicks also came to two games!

With only the last game left in the regular season, the Pacers can no longer surpass the Knicks. At best, they are only second in the Eastern Conference.

What's worse is that the Heat, which is third in the Eastern Conference, and the Magic, which is fourth, also tied with the Pacers in record after this game!

But the good news is that the Pacers are leading 2:0 against the Heat or Magic in the regular season this season, so even if the three teams are tied, the Pacers are still second! So the initiative still lies with the Pacers themselves!

But if the Pacers lose in the last game of the season, and the Heat and Magic win, then the Pacers' ranking will continue to fall, and they will lose two in a row, directly to fourth in the Eastern Conference!

This news is undoubtedly very bad for the entire Pacers team!

After all, being fourth in the Eastern Conference means a more dangerous first-round showdown and an early duel with the Knicks in the Eastern Conference semifinals!

This is definitely a scene the Pacers don’t want to see!

Because although Miller's current condition is not bad, the comeback timetable given by the team doctor is in early June!

At that time, the Eastern Conference finals were at least halfway through.

No matter how confident the Pacers are, no matter how they have defeated the Knicks once without Miller, they absolutely do not want to face the Knicks in the Eastern Conference semifinals without Miller!

This has nothing to do with confidence, it is simply unnecessary!

Why would you want to find this kind of unhappiness for yourself?

Wouldn't it be better to be more secure?

Therefore, in this case, it means that the Pacers will not be able to take a rest in the final game of the regular season! They must go all out to win the final game of the regular season to consolidate their second place in the Eastern Conference!

For the Pacers, this is not good news, but for the fans, this is great news!

There is no other reason, because Lin Tian will definitely appear on this night!

What Lin Tian is wearing now is the NBA historical record of 9 consecutive triple-doubles! He has tied Chamberlain, and he will have the opportunity to surpass Chamberlain and exclusively hold the first place in history!

You know, this record of 9 consecutive triple-doubles is recognized as one of the most difficult NBA records to break. Many people even rank him ahead of Chamberlain's 7 consecutive games with 50+ points. They think this record is worse than Chamberlain's 7 consecutive games with 50+ points. It’s even harder to get + points in consecutive games!

After all, 7 consecutive games with 50+ points only requires the players to be in good condition, and 9 consecutive games with a triple-double requires the help of teammates and opponents!

Opponents have to hit more irons to get rebounds, and teammates have to make more hits when receiving Lin Tian's passes, otherwise there will be no assists.

Again, in the 90s, triple-doubles were rare. There were many stars who could score more than 3 points, but there were really few who could score triple-doubles!

In addition, there is another point worthy of attention in this final battle of the Pacers!

Because the Knicks and Suns both ended their seasons one day earlier than the Pacers, their last games were played on May 5.

In other words, Jordan, who currently ranks first in the league in scoring, averaging 28.9 points per game, and Kidd, who ranks first in assists this season, averaging 10.8 assists per game, have completed all their regular season games. Their data has been fixed!

And what about Lin Tian's average data now?

28.7 points, 10.7 assists!

He is only 0.2 points behind Jordan, and only 0.1 assists behind Kidd!

Jordan and Kidd both played 50 games, and they scored 1447 points and 542 assists respectively!

And what about Lin Tian? He has now played 49 games and scored a total of 1408 points and 526 assists!

In other words, as long as Lin Tian scores at least 40 points and 17 assists in the last game of the season, he will become the second man in NBA history to win both the scoring and assist titles in the same season. !

The last person to do this was Nat Archibald, nicknamed 'Elf', in the 1972-1973 season!

Today, it has a history of more than 25 years!

If he can get this honor, Lin Tian will be even more confident in being the MVP this year, and may even become the first unanimous MVP in NBA history!

Therefore, this seemingly ordinary game, which can only determine the final ranking order in the Eastern Conference, is actually very likely to have a historical moment!

Moreover, it is the top historical moment!

Think about it, if Lin Tian scores a triple-double in this game and gets at least 3 points and 40 assists, then he will win the scoring and assist titles this season at the same time, and set a historical record, winning 17 consecutive games. Order 10 pairs!

Just looking at these numbers is enough to drive all fans crazy! This high probability can only exist in legends or classic moments that are enough for people to mention countless times in the following years. No one wants to miss it!

So, on May 5th, the entire City Square Arena was once again surrounded inside and out. Countless people gathered in the square outside the arena. Many people held signs and wanted to Buy a ticket for this game at a high price.

There were also many beautiful girls holding signs, willing to do some unspeakable things in exchange for a game ticket. Two girls even took off their tops to express their support for on-site inspection!

There were even many men holding signs, saying that they were willing to do some unspeakable things in exchange for a ticket. Unfortunately, no man took off his pants and exposed his buttocks for inspection on the spot.

And more people who hold tickets in their hands turn a blind eye to these demands for high-priced purchases and equal-price exchanges. Compared with a few minutes of pleasure and thousands of dollars in return, they would rather witness this historic moment in person!

So they hurried into the stadium, fearing that if they stayed outside for a while, their tickets would be stolen, or they could not resist the temptation, sold their tickets, and missed this game that they would remember for the rest of their lives.

In short, such an ordinary game has received a terrifying amount of attention due to various reasons!

For example, both TNT and NBC chose to temporarily change their broadcast plans and chose to broadcast the game live!

You know, since the NBA began to implement a new broadcast agreement this season and gave the broadcast rights to both TNT and NBC, these two units will basically not broadcast the same game. The negotiation is completed.

Those wonderful duels are almost half of each other. You show the Lakers, I'll show the Knicks, you show the Pacers, and I'll show the Jazz and Spurs' inside showdown.

Of course, in a super showdown like the Knicks versus the Pacers, if neither side is willing to give in, we might as well broadcast it together.

However, in the entire season, the two units broadcast one game together, which was only 3 games in total!

There were two matchups between the Pacers and New York, and one when the Knicks played the Bulls away from home. Jordan returned to the focus of the United Center battle.

A whole season, full play, just these three games!

Even the Lakers didn't get the opportunity to be broadcast by two media at the same time, which shows how optimistic this game is by the broadcasters!

As for both sides of this game, in addition to the Pacers playing at home, the other team destined to play a supporting role is Lin Tian's old club. This season has sunk to the bottom because the Audio-Technica and Jackson left at the same time. , ranked last in the Eastern Conference, and the target is also Brand's Chicago Bulls!

How bad are the Bulls this season? They have only won 13 games so far this season, ranking last in the Eastern Conference. If the Grizzlies and Clippers in the Western Conference were not so outrageous that they did not even win 10 games, the Bulls' ranking could be further down. .

At the same time, the core figures of the team’s previous two consecutive championships: Phil Jackson, Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Dennis Rodman, Luke Longley, Steve Kerr and others are All leave!

A familiar face from the previous Bulls team remained with the team this year, that is, he became the team leader. Although he averaged 19 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists per game, the team ranked last, so he was wildly criticized. Toni Kukoc and Ron Hubble, who have been staying up for a long time and clocking in and out on time.

Well, there is also Bill Wennington, but unfortunately, this peace-loving big man has suffered serious injuries this season. He has only played a little over 20 games in total, which does not bring any strong impact to the team. help.

The rest of the team was either hurriedly recruited by Krause from the free market, or fringe members of the team who had never been able to play before.

In short, Klaus paid the price for his stinginess and calculation. The team collapsed from the previous dynasty to the bottom of the league in the blink of an eye.

Of course, Klaus is still ambitious!

He believes that as long as he is given a chance to select a few new super talents in the draft in recent years, the team will be able to restore its former glory immediately!

That's a bit far.

Speaking of this game, this game also has extraordinary significance for the Bulls.

This season, the defeated Bulls had only had two national broadcast opportunities before this game.

One is against the Knicks at home and one is against the Knicks on the road.

Originally, everyone wanted to see the drama of Jordan vs. his old team, but unfortunately, the Bulls' current strength is so poor that it is really difficult for them to pose any threat to the Knicks. In both games, the Bulls were defeated miserably. And ended.

The only two live broadcasts in the United States were all criticized. The Bulls this season are a complete joke and top-notch weaklings in the hearts of fans across the United States!

But today, not only did they have a national live broadcast, it was also a dual-channel broadcast!

Even all over the world, such as China, Japan, the Philippines, Serbia, France and other places, have chosen to broadcast this game on the last day of the regular season. This game may not be exciting, but it will definitely get super high ratings!

This originally mediocre game was not worth mentioning, but because Lin Tian was about to break the historical record, two American TV stations changed their broadcast plans at the same time, throwing aside the game that was originally going to be broadcast, and choosing Broadcast this!

Of course, there are also broadcasts from dozens of TV stations around the world!

After all, if Lin Tian can break the record in this game, it will be the moment when a new history is born!

Fans around the world don’t want to miss this moment!

Before the game, looking at the rapid growth in the number of expected viewers on the two TV stations and the repeated good news from TV stations around the world, Stern finally smiled again.

The anger caused by the Lakers' failure to cooperate and abide by the rules of the game a few days ago, and the high attention of this game, finally allowed Stern to find his balance.

Stern even lied to himself!

If O'Neal and Kobe both played that game, what if Lin didn't get a triple-double, causing the triple-double record to be interrupted?

Then the world-wide carnival for this game can’t be seen!

After trying to think in this direction for a while, Stern felt: I felt much more comfortable!

Next, it depends on whether Lin Tian will give him face or not!

No, it depends on whether the Bulls will disappoint!

In Stern's heart, he is crazy about cheering for the Bulls!

Not to mention that the fight was exciting and beautiful, not to mention that he persisted until the end and came up with a decisive victory or something like that!

At the very least, it has to last for three quarters, right?

Lin Tian's triple-double or 3 points and 40 assists, at least let him achieve the same, right?

You can't just give Lin Tian a quarter and score more than ten or twenty points, and you, the Bull, will surrender and be defeated directly!

The worst thing is that in the end Lin Tian scored 39 points, 16 assists and 9 rebounds, which was okay!

The incomplete beauty was just a few inches away from reaching history but failed to achieve it in the end. It’s not like he was incapable of it!

I, David Stern, just want attention!

No matter what you do, you have to fight to deserve this attention! No matter what you do, you have to make the fight more lively!

Thinking of this, Stern hesitated again and again, glanced at his watch, closed the office door, picked up the phone and called Bird.

(End of this chapter)
