NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

Chapter 292 Making history! The first winning streak in NBA history is born!

The score between the two sides was entangled until the last minute before the end of the game. As Duncan once again turned around in the low post and scored a goal with an underhand layup, the point difference between the two sides narrowed again.

119: 116!

The Spurs are only 3 points behind!
The point difference between the two sides has narrowed to only one goal left, and they have hope of catching up within one round!

Of course, that's assuming they can prevent the Pacers' next attack!

And these 2 points allowed Duncan's score to finally break the 50-point mark, reaching 51 points!
The Pacers did not call a timeout at this time. Bird waved his hand and signaled Lin Tian to watch the game by himself!
This is the Pacers' practice. Bird believed in Lin Tian's on-the-spot reaction ability and called a timeout to arrange tactics at this time. On the contrary, it gave the opponent a chance to rest and adjust tactics!

It's better to let Lin Tian perform on his own.

After Lin Tian dribbled the ball quickly to the frontcourt, he raised his hand without hesitation to signal everyone to move away from him, using an isolation tactic. After everyone moved away, Lin Tian continued to dribble with his hips, and then Suddenly, there was a sharp change of direction and he quickly passed by Daniels!
Daniels was once again turned into a wooden stake by Lin Tian!

This time, Duncan finally stopped staying in the paint. Tonight's Lin Tian was so accurate in the mid-range!
In addition to Lin Tian being too accurate, the reason why Duncan was chosen was because the Spurs also had David Robinson standing inside at the moment!

With Big Brother at his side, Duncan's defensive strategy is naturally more bold!

"Yes, after Lin scored the goal, although there were still 50 seconds left in the game, the Spurs were at least 5 points behind! They had to score at least two goals, and at the same time they had to defend the Pacers at least once!" Kenny Followed: "To be honest, with Duncan's state tonight, scoring 2 goals will definitely not be a problem, but the question is, how can the Spurs prevent the Pacers' offense?"

"Beep!" The referee immediately raised his hand and blew the whistle, giving Robinson a thug foul!
At the same time, this is also Robinson's sixth foul!

If the Pacers get another inside shot, it will be much more difficult for Duncan to attack!

Those slow positional battles and absolutely rational and reasonable balls are correct, but they are not what the fans want. They are not here for tactical classes or lectures, they are here to have fun!
The Pacers are obviously the team that makes fans the most happy in the league today!

Lin Tian and Robinson collided in the air. This time Lin Tian rushed hard enough. At the critical moment, Robinson hoped to prevent Lin Tian's key attack, so his defensive actions were not so well controlled. He slapped him. , hitting Lin Tian on the arm!

"Really?" Big Ben's eyes immediately lit up. If he can get into the best defense, his dream of becoming the league's number one blue-collar player will suddenly be much closer!

After reaching the inside line, Lin Tian jumped up facing David Robinson!

Duncan stood on the free throw line, took two deep breaths in succession, and then patted the ball a few times to adjust his touch. In the end, he was almost stuck on the edge of the 2-second free throw violation before he finally made it. The crucial ball was thrown out.

If you make a penalty, you still have a chance!

"If he had scored this free throw, Lin would have scored 55 points tonight! His condition tonight is no worse than Duncan's!"

"Shh!"

"The balance of victory and defeat is beginning to tilt! This extremely exciting duel, this head-on confrontation between ice and fire, is about to decide the winner!" Barkley said excitedly: "Lin's 2+1 is likely to win. It will determine the outcome of the entire game!"

Lin Tian!

Duncan suddenly took a step forward, and then swiped at Ben. The basketball hit the backboard again, and then bounced into the basket!
"Dudu!"

Stimulate! carefree! Refreshing!

In the last 30 seconds, the team leads by 3 points and still has the ball. No matter how you look at it, it should be to control the ball steadily, then run out of time, and then decide whether to score or not.

After a crisp sound, Duncan finally withstood the pressure and made the free throw. The difference between the two sides was still 3 points!
But before he even had time to take a breath, he saw Weber quickly rush out of the baseline with the basketball, and then throw the ball toward the frontcourt with one hand!
"Defense!"

The reason why the penalty was so slow was not only that Duncan was really tired, but also because Duncan knew how important this ball was!
He knew that if the free throw was missed, the game would basically be lost.

There was no dodging, no changes in footsteps or rhythm. At this point, Lin Tian knew that the best way was to fight hard!

Kill everyone on the Spurs head-on!

These things are obviously not in the minds of Lin Tian and Weber. The two of them never care about such things.

This time, he no longer even squeezed into the 3-second zone. Instead, he stood directly at his waist and reached for the ball. After catching the ball, he simply pushed his shoulder into the base, giving himself a little space before using his hands. In one move, Ben, who scored almost full marks on the defensive end this night, failed to control his body and jumped up unconsciously!

Ben was also hit with his sixth foul by Duncan!
This guy raised his hands in frustration. Although he was effective in guarding Robinson today, he spent more time against Duncan, including of course the key foul that knocked him off the court.

After a bang, Lin Tian, ​​under the incredible gazes of Daniels and Rose, succeeded in a one-arm dunk, once again widening the point difference to 5 points!
There are 27 seconds left in the game!
To be honest, Lin Tian's offense is cool, really cool, but it is completely irrational and does not conform to the ideas of most coaches.

"When did I lie to you?" Lin Tian punched Daben and said, "Go down and rest, I will take care of the rest!"

But now, he is leaving.

This completely irrational and unreasonable style of play is the reason why today's Pacers have soared in popularity in the league and have the most neutral fans!

Finally got fooled!
Lin Tian sighed inwardly. His right hand and the basketball in his hand did not lose control because of being hit. Instead, he quickly collected the ball. After drawing a circle in front of him, he avoided a signature pull-up layup. Robinson's defense came out from the side. After the basketball hit the backboard, it fell into the basket obediently!

Facing the double team, Lin Tian was not afraid at all. The basketball hit Daniels directly in the crotch, and then he turned around and passed between the two people again. Although his toes and Rose His toes touched and he stumbled, but Lin Tian just held the floor with one hand and quickly found his balance.

Seeing Duncan coming out, Lin Tian certainly would not choose to shoot stupidly again. First, he slowed down slightly, causing Duncan to take two steps closer to him. Then Lin Tian suddenly bent down and accelerated, getting past Duncan like lightning. Pass!
Even if Duncan is one of the best defenders in the league, it would be too difficult for a player of his height and weight to chase Lin Tian. His turn speed cannot be that fast!

He put his left hand on the floor and took out the basketball that passed under Daniels' crotch with his right hand. Lin Tian quickly stood up and rushed toward the basket.

Duncan had no time to go back anyway. Still at the free throw line, he could only roar in despair, and then ran back with all his strength.

While the two were talking, Lin Tian had already made this crucial extra penalty, extending the Pacers' lead to 6 points!
They are getting closer and closer to their 32nd consecutive victory!
The Spurs also did not call a timeout at this time! Popovich doesn’t want to give the Pacers a chance to adjust their lineup!

The person holding the ball was, of course, Lin Tian. He held the basketball at the midline and faced the defense of Rose and Daniels at the same time.

Just do it and that’s it!

"boom!"

But these two bold guys, Lin Tian and Webber, want to use 5 seconds to launch a quick counterattack. The Spurs' foothold is not stable, and your weakness is that the Spurs can't catch up with Lin Tian's speed!
Possible mistake? 1 versus 2 in the frontcourt? Irrational? Above? Will your opponent counterattack if you miss?

"Snapped!"

In the last 50 seconds of the game, 'Admiral' David Robinson was finally beaten!
The fans at ATT's home court immediately let out bursts of wailing. Although Robinson was in poor condition tonight, making only 19 of 8 shots and only relying on free throws to get 20 points and 10 rebounds, he still had 4 blocked shots! Except for the last period of the second quarter, Robinson was the patron saint of the Spurs' basket the rest of the time!

"You're great at what you do, Ben!" Lin Tian immediately walked up to Ben, rubbed his head and comforted him: "I guess just by relying on this game, you can be selected as the best defender this year. line-up!"

After arriving in the frontcourt, Duncan's steps have obviously become a little slower, and this guy's physical strength is almost exhausted.

In the last 27 seconds, Popovich called his last timeout. This time it was really a moment of life and death!
And Popovich knows that if he wants to win the game at this point, he can only wait for a miracle!

They must first hit a goal quickly, and then immediately counterattack on the spot to find a chance to successfully steal. It would be best if they can intercept it. If they cannot intercept it, they must also foul immediately to prevent the Pacers from wasting time dribbling the ball. .

Simply put, they have to let themselves hit 3-pointers quickly and pray that the Pacers make mistakes!
too difficult!
With the referee's whistle, the moment comes to determine the Spurs' and the league's historical record!
Duncan provided continuous screens for Rose and Richmond at the top of the arc, creating a wall for them, waiting for them to run out of space. Then after several consecutive screens, Duncan quickly turned around and headed towards the basket. run.

He has to go to the basket to attract the Pacers' attention, and he also has to fight for offensive rebounds.

After a complicated movement, Richmond got an opportunity on the far wing. After receiving the basketball, he decisively took a shot, hoping to score 3 points for the team. Christie, who was guarding him, was blocked by Daniel. Si blocked it and failed to defend immediately. He could only watch Richmond shoot a 3-pointer!
"Boom!"

Under the expectations of San Antonians, Richmond failed to hit an open 3-pointer!
But Duncan under the basket was like a pillar of strength at the moment. He blocked Davis and Weber by himself, then stretched out his long arms and touched the basketball first before everyone else.

But he didn't tip the ball directly, but passed the ball in the direction of Rose. The team was 5 points behind, 2 points and 2 points, too late!
After getting the ball, Rose was about to take a shot when he noticed a figure in front of him.

Lin Tian's defensive assistance has arrived!
He was so frightened by Lin Tian's fierce look that he didn't dare to take action immediately!

Rose made a useless shooting fake, but it didn't deceive Lin Tian at all. Not only did he not deceive him, Lin Tian also spotted the opportunity and slapped the basketball that was exposed by Rose cleanly. It's broken!
The first time he stole the ball, the second time he shot the ball towards the front court!

Rose couldn't react at all at this moment, Lin Tian's hands were too fast!
Rose only had time to look back at the basketball, and didn't even realize in his mind that what he should do most now was to quickly start chasing the out-of-control basketball, regain the ball, and fight for the team's chance of survival.

Ross, who was now in a state of confusion, only had time to look back, and then he felt a gust of wind blowing beside him, it was Lin Tian!

Lin Tian had already rushed past him!

Even if Rose reacts now, it will be too late. Lin Tian rushes forward, Lin Tian is several positions ahead of everyone, and no one can catch up!

"boom!"

3 seconds later, Lin Tian completed another dunk!
He hung his hands on the basket and swayed back and forth, widening the point difference to 14 points 7 seconds before the end of the game!
At the same time, it also helped the Pacers completely seal the victory!

The Spurs, who had no timeout, were helpless!

Even if a peak Tracy McGrady is dropped on them, 14 seconds is not enough!
As the Spurs once again moved the ball to the frontcourt, and then Rose made a chasing 3-pointer and hit it, the time of the entire game was almost exhausted.

The Pacers once again sent a baseline kick. This time, the Spurs didn't step forward to press. That was meaningless!
"beep!"

When the full-time whistle officially sounded, the Pacers players finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Got it!
This most difficult battle, this most difficult game in their pursuit of a winning streak, was finally won!

The Pacers' winning streak has reached 32 games!
They are only one game away from the 33-game winning streak that ranks first in NBA history!

And their next two opponents are both absolutely weak teams!

Everyone believes that as long as they get past the Spurs, there will be absolutely no problem if the Pacers break the record!
The Pacers were able to survive the danger this night, and the biggest contributor was of course Lin Tian, ​​who scored 59 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists, 5 steals and 3 blocks! He once again dedicated everything to the team, and it was his confrontation with Duncan and his response after every Duncan score that allowed the Pacers to always maintain a slight lead!
The 8 consecutive points at the end of the second quarter and the 7 consecutive points before the end of the fourth quarter. These two consecutive rounds of crazy scoring not only scored points for the team, but also directly affected the situation of the game!

The crazy wave in the first half allowed the Pacers to lead by 10 points! At the critical moment before the end of the fourth quarter, Lin Tian relied on his own efforts to score consecutive points, thwarting the Spurs' counterattack plan, making every score by the Spurs useless, allowing the team to always maintain Holding a slight lead.

As for the Spurs, they tried their best tonight and gave everything they could! Especially Duncan!
Duncan was simply omnipotent tonight, eating Webb and the Pacers' entire inside line alive! He scored a career-high 54 points, 21 rebounds, 4 blocks and 3 steals! Duncan really did his best tonight and gave everything he could.

However, Lin Tian's strength turned Duncan's surge into nothing, and Duncan's 54 points became a footnote to his 59 points.

"This game will definitely make me think about it for a long time!" Barkley said excitedly: "It is rare for the core players of both sides to score 50 points in a game! This requires more than just the efforts and full strength of the two players. Go, and more importantly, the cooperation of the two teams!"

"If a certain side suddenly starts a strategy such as double-teaming, assisting defense, or zone defense, it will be difficult for the players to perform like this no matter how good their condition is."

"What Charles said is right!" Kenny followed up: "If you want two players to score 50 points at the same time, you need a lot of things! The right time, location, people and people are all indispensable! But no matter what, tonight's game Lin and Tim, they both did it! They both did it! And there was no overtime, both of them scored 50+ points in regular time!"

"The first thing I did when I got home tonight was to keep the video of this game in my house forever. I will definitely take it out and watch it again and again in the future!"

Barkley continued happily: "So, tonight's game is over! I think what we have to do now is celebrate for the Pacers in advance! They have won 32 consecutive games and have surpassed The most difficult level, defeating the strongest opponent!"

"Their remaining two opponents have only won 30 games combined, which is half of the Pacers! Look at the state and determination of the Pacers tonight! I think, 34 games or more The winning streak has become a foregone conclusion! The Pacers will definitely achieve an incredible record this year!"

Buckley is right! This year's Pacers team is truly united! All of them are ready, and all of them have mustered up all their strength to kill their last two remaining opponents!

Especially after winning the Spurs, the entire Pacers team has entered the state, their morale has been completely ignited, and their fighting spirit has been completely aroused.

They want to make history!
After returning to Indiana, the Pacers players took a good rest for a few days before waiting for their 33rd opponent, the Golden State Warriors!
Although this year's Warriors have two promising scorers in Jamison and Hughes with All-Star potential, firstly, their players in other positions are too bad, and secondly, even these two are only able to produce good statistics for themselves. His level is far from being able to lead the team to victory.

This is also the reason why the Warriors are still at the bottom of the league this year. They still need some accumulation to wait until the day they rise.

Facing his old buddy and Jamison, who overpowered him in the draft, Carter burst out with huge energy this night, and he was also holding his breath! Why did you beat me when I was at North Carolina, and why were you selected earlier than me in the draft? Now compete to see who is the better one!

You are the boss of the bottom team in the league, but I am already the best sixth player in the league and an indispensable figure for the championship-level team!
With the mentality of wanting to prove themselves, and Lin Tian, ​​Webber and others knowing that Carter was holding back the energy, they also kept playing for him tonight.

So, Carter played the most brilliant night of his career tonight!
29投18中，其中3分球8投5中，罚球12罚10中，轰下职业生涯最高的51分5篮板2助攻！

Crazy Carter broke down the Warriors' entire defense!
Of course, it has to be said that the Warriors have no defensive line to begin with. There is no such thing as defense in the DNA of this team.

Under Carter's madness, the Pacers easily defeated the Warriors and won their 33rd consecutive victory!
They tied the Lakers in the 1971-1972 season and tied for the longest winning streak in NBA history!
After tying the Lakers, the happiest person was undoubtedly Bird.

The first thing this sinister guy did was to call Magic Johnson and express his regrets.

"Oh, Erwin, I accidentally broke your record. To be honest, I really didn't pay much attention to it. I just let it happen. I didn't make any special preparations, and I didn't say anything certain. To break it, after all you know, I don’t care about this kind of thing, just like I don’t care about being the MVP for three consecutive years.”

"I'm calling you to tell you that there's nothing we can do about winning streaks. We all have to look forward. Well, if you feel uncomfortable, why not go cook a bowl of noodles and eat it yourself? After all, No one will eat from your bottom, well, the most important thing in life is to be happy!"

"I'm not angry! I wasn't in high school when that record was born!" Johnson pouted and said with an impatient look on his face: "What the hell are you calling me for?"

"Ah? That's it. Oops, I forgot. Then remember to eat noodles and talk next time." Bird hung up the phone happily.

On the other end of the phone, Johnson looked at West next to him with a constipated expression and said, "I bet that idiot will call you within 20 seconds."

Before he finished speaking, West's phone rang.

"What a bastard." The famous Lakers godfather, 'logo man' Jerry West, as a witness and participant of the 33-game winning streak and the core of the team, cursed a curse word, picked up the phone, and then Without putting it in his ear, he hung up immediately: "I won't listen to this bastard!"

Bird heard the busy signal from the phone and did not continue to call. He was very sure that West had received his blessing. He was laughing happily at the moment, happy! Really happy!
Why 33 consecutive wins?

Isn't it just to send some cordial blessings to those old rivals from back then?
Now that the old guys have received their blessings, he can sleep happily.

Another day later, the Pacers welcomed the Cleveland Cavaliers.

To be honest, the Cavaliers were very ambitious last season and spent a lot of money to form a twin-tower combination of Kemp and Webb, hoping to hit a new height in team history.

But the result was a pair of rich players. Not only did the team's record show no improvement, but Kemp, on the other hand, went further and further down the road of gaining weight and never looked back!

Last season, Kemp was still averaging 20+10 points per game, but this season, Kemp has almost completely failed. Although the data seems to be 17+8, which seems good, his shooting percentage is almost below 40. %. As a power forward, with this kind of efficiency, it's not surprising that the team's record is at the bottom.

Coupled with his weight that is about to catch up with O'Neal and his completely uncontrolled overeating, alcoholism, and other bad professional habits, everyone can see that Kemp is not far away from being completely unable to play.

The more this happens, the more painful it will be for the Cavaliers to watch Webber!

This bastard was like a loser with the Cavaliers last season. Less than a year later, he went to Indiana and became a super all-around forward. He was about to become one of the three new generation power forwards in the league.

Where can you go to reason?

Anyway, the Cavaliers' management felt: This bastard is playing us!

If they asked this question to Webber, Webber would nod his head and admit it without hesitation, saying that you are right, I played you!

In this year with the Pacers, Weber didn't learn anything else. There is no limit to his shamelessness. He learned this clearly from Lin Tian and Miller!
However, since we are facing the old boss, we can't just play a game and be done with it. Why can't we leave some gifts for them?

Two days ago, Carter faced the Warriors, who only spent 5 minutes with him, and scored a career-high score. So why don't Webber, who has been with the Cavaliers for a whole season, not leave more?
When Weber thought of this, he felt that he was really too damn interesting and too damn particular!
So, the night before the game against the Cavaliers, he first invited Kemp out and had a good drink. When the drunk guy arrived at the game, his feet were weak and he could hardly stand. The burps still smelled of alcohol.

Then?

Then in this game, Webb made sudden inside and outside shots, passing and attacking continuously, and the Cavaliers' entire defense line was completely defeated!

Of course, the Cavaliers don't have much of a defense. As a team that has already set its sights on this summer's draft, as well as next year's, the year after, and the year after next, what they have to do now is to brush up, and everyone should brush up together. .

It doesn’t matter whether you win or not, just brush up the data and use it if you can in the future. Even if you don’t use it, you can sell it at a good price! The team's reconstruction has begun!

Naturally, there was no suspense in this game. Webb went all out, scoring a huge triple-double with 44 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists. The Pacers also easily won the game!
After this game, the Pacers finally achieved the achievement that attracted the attention of the world!

34 consecutive wins!

They surpassed the Lakers and officially became the team with the most consecutive wins in NBA history!

"A new winning streak record is born!" The Pacers' 34-game winning streak is the most impressive ever! 》

"Another record that is least likely to be broken has been broken! How many more records can the Pacers score? 》

"The next goal is 74 wins for the Bulls?" How long can the Pacers continue to win in a row? 》

"second to none! The Pacers stand out from the crowd, counting down the top opponents they encountered in their 34-game winning streak! 》

"Leading over the cliff!" After reaching a 34-game winning streak, the Pacers are already 6 games ahead of the second-placed Lakers in the league! 》

"Locked first place in the league one month in advance?" The Pacers dominated the regular season! 》

"Lin has been confirmed as the MVP for two consecutive years, and O'Neal is clearly at a disadvantage in the MVP showdown! 》

"First in steals, first in assists, and second in scoring, who can resist Lin Tian's MVP win? 》

"The Magician is trembling, Stockton is in disbelief, and Thomas' status is unstable!" How far is Lin Tian from becoming the number one point guard in NBA history? 》

"Only the championship remains!" After reaching 34 consecutive victories, the Pacers' only goal is to win the championship! 》

……

This crazy winning streak of the Pacers naturally shocked the entire league!

After all, being able to achieve so many consecutive wins requires more than just a strong enough team!

It also requires a stable state, an atmosphere of unity, a mentality of not being careless and not relaxing, and an attitude of always going all out!

Only when all these details are taken to the extreme can it be possible to set a winning streak.

After all, there are many teams in NBA history that have won more than 65 or even 70 games, but why was it that only the Lakers were able to complete 33 consecutive victories?
For revenge!

The Lakers that season were not very optimistic before the game. They lost to the Celtics again the previous season and lost the championship. They were called the second-best team in a thousand years and suffered a lot. There was huge pressure, and at the beginning of the season, the team's meritorious and core attacker Elgin Baylor had no choice but to retire due to injury, giving up his pursuit of the championship.

The core of the team has retired, and the players in the team are already quite old. In addition, there is huge pressure from public opinion, and powerful enemies are surrounding them.

It was under this situation that they were besieged on all sides, and the Lakers ignited their ambition for revenge. They were united, gave everything, and dedicated everything. Only then did they contribute to that soul-stirring 33-game winning streak, and finally won the championship. .

And this time, it’s the Pacers’ turn to be the Avengers!
They were eliminated in the Eastern Conference semifinals last season, and they are also full of anger and determination for revenge. This season, they have really reached the top state in terms of mentality, ability and condition!
The Pacers, who failed to win two consecutive championships last season due to injuries and other reasons, are full of anger and desire this season!

They want to win the championship, and they want to prove that last season's failure was due to luck rather than strength!
At the same time, the new Weber also has to prove that he is not a cancer, a trash, or an alcoholic! He is the most gorgeous, comprehensive and offensive top power forward in the league!
To put it simply, the Pacers this season have the strongest desire to win and aggressiveness in the league! All of them want to succeed!

A team with this kind of mentality can often break out at 120% and perform unparalleled performances!

After defeating the Cavaliers, the Pacers took a day off and defeated the Nuggets who came to challenge, extending their winning streak to 35 games. Then, their winning streak lasted for almost two games. Half a month later, the winning streak of more than 70 days is finally over!
In the following back-to-back games against the 76ers, the Pacers lost to the hot state. They made 37 of 18 shots from the field, 3 of 5 2-pointers, and 18 of 15 free throws. They hit a career high of 53. Points to Allen Iverson!
After this outbreak, Iverson also overtook Lin Tian in the personal scoring list!
Iverson's scoring average has reached 28.5 points after today, while Lin Tian only has 28.4 points!
It can be said that Iverson almost stepped on Lin Tian's head and became second in the scoring list!
Regarding Iverson's crazy performance, Lin Tian's reaction after the game was very dull.

"See you in the playoffs! I hope the 76ers can persist until they meet us, and I hope Allen's condition can be maintained until the playoffs, not just today."

War is declared!
Facing Lin Tian's declaration of war, Iverson's performance was also very tough.

"It's normal for him to say that, because I beat him, I beat them! I kicked the whole Pacers team in the butt! I know how much they hate me, because the entire league will be beaten by me, The whole league is full of people who hate me! Lin and the Pacers are no exception."

"Playoffs? Let's wait and see! I will let Lin and the Indiana people know: the regular season is nothing! The playoffs are a man's stage!"

The Pacers declare war, and the 76ers take over!
This kind of behavior between the two sides directly choking each other in the air naturally made fans and media across the United States excited!

The two most aggressive and craziest people in the league are facing each other head-on!

Who doesn’t want to watch this kind of plot?

Then, everyone looked up the record rankings with great interest.

The Pacers are undoubtedly first. As for the 76ers, they are currently third, but the fourth-place Hornets are only one game away from them!

If they enter the playoffs according to this record, the 76ers will have to wait until the Eastern Conference finals to meet the Pacers, but judging from their lineup and strength, they have almost no chance of entering the conference finals.

Second in the Eastern Conference, but another top team in the Eastern Conference: the Miami Heat!
Want to get past the Heat? Anyway, except for the crazy fans of Iverson and the 76ers, no one thinks they can do it.

Therefore, if you want the 76ers and Pacers to meet in the playoffs, you still have to count on the Hornets!

Only if the Hornets squeeze the 76ers into fourth place, then the Pacers and 76ers may meet in the Eastern Conference semifinals!

So, suddenly, the Hornets gained many more fans out of thin air!
Their games suddenly attracted a lot of attention. Among them, the game against the 3ers at the end of March was temporarily changed to a national live broadcast on TNT!
Regarding this, the Hornets are naturally excited from top to bottom! No one would dislike this extra attention, and it’s all green dollars!
In return for this attention, the Hornets are united from top to bottom!
They know that the whole country wants to see them counterattack to third place in the Eastern Conference, so they will go all out and not let the fans down!

Maybe, with this wave of east wind, we can gain an extra wave of fans?
Therefore, since this incident, the Hornets have become one of the teams with the best records in the entire Eastern Conference. All players on the team know that many people are paying attention to them, so they play hard!
It's not easy for a small city team to get this kind of national attention!

None of them will let this opportunity go easily!

Just do it!

It's all about the fans' expectations.

In the next half month, the Hornets won consecutive games, clinging to the 76ers, hoping to reach third place in the Eastern Conference.

The Pacers once again started a new winning streak after losing to the 76ers. In the entire month of March, they actually only lost one game, and Lin Tian also lost consecutive games at the end of the month. In the fourth month, I won the Player of the Month award!
This means that everyone recognizes that Lin Tian was the best performer in the league from December to March!

Jordan has never achieved this kind of dominance!

Again, in this era, when the league only selects the best player of the month every month, it is much harder to win the best player of the month 4 times in a row than to win the MVP!

Well, after all, there is an MVP every year, but there is only one Lin Tian in NBA history who has won Player of the Month 4 times in a single season!
He is also the first person in history to win Player of the Month four times in a row!
A historical record, not too big nor too small, was created again by Lin Tian!
And this record is almost impossible to be broken, because if Lin Tian remembers correctly, next season, the league will select a Player of the Month in the East and West every month.

There is only one season left for others to surpass Lin Tian.

Ok……

Well, looking at the entire league, there is only one person who has the ability to surpass Lin Tian this year next year.

That is... Lin Tian next season!

After the end of March, there are only the last 3 days of the league's regular season left. The rankings of each team have basically been settled. What's left is the final sprint and adjustments!
(End of this chapter)
