NBA: Start by torturing Jordan and add points to upgrade

After the timeout, there was good news for the Spurs.

That is, Lin Tian’s three-point shooting touch seemed to have finally disappeared. In his first shot after returning to the court, Lin Tian missed the three-pointer.

But there is another bad news for the Spurs. Although he missed the three-pointer, Lin Tian had no intention of stopping.

For example, after missing the three-pointer, Lin Tian rushed into the inside quickly, then jumped up, grabbed the rebound over Nesterovic's head, then jumped a second time quickly and completed a layup over Nesterovic.

At the same time, Nesterovic failed to control his body and bumped into Lin Tian.

2 + 1!
Even though it was a missed 3-pointer, it was still 3 points!
After making this shot, Popovich even closed his eyes. He couldn't watch it, and he couldn't bear to watch it.

He had a feeling: the record that Lin Tian was going to break tonight was not over at all.

Sure enough, in the next 3 minutes, Lin Tian continued to score crazily by inside and outside shots. He also made another 3-pointer, and his number of three-pointers was fixed at 14.

Coupled with his strength in mid-range and under the basket, Lin Tian tonight is absolutely unstoppable no matter where he is!

The Spurs were blown away!
In every sense of the word, it was a blast.

"boom!!!"

After another loud bang, Lin Tian completed another dunk!

After this goal, the score between the two sides became 63:93!

After the timeout, the Spurs, whose mentality had completely collapsed, did not put up any resistance. They failed to score even a single point and kept missing shots.

反倒是林天继续着自己恐怖的连续输出，他上场之后7投4中，包括3分球2投1中，罚球5罚4中再次拿到了13分！
After the timeout, Lin Tian scored 13:0, not only widening the gap between the two sides to 30 points, completely eliminating the suspense of the game, but also increasing his single-quarter score in the third quarter to 44 points!
It was after this dunk that Carlisle made a substitution, and Lin Tian walked off the court amid the crazy cheers of the entire stadium and the prayers of the San Antonio fans. At this time, the fans of both teams were extremely satisfied with the substitution!

There were only 40 seconds left in the third quarter and the Pacers were leading by 30 points. Lin Tian's personal data was impeccable. All Pacers fans could eat at least two more turkey legs tonight.

The Spurs fans were also relieved that Lin Tian left the court at this time.

Although there were only 40 seconds left in the third quarter, who knows what Lin Tian would do next, such as making two more three-pointers?
50 points in a single quarter?
Yes, the probability of this happening is very small, so small that it is almost impossible to happen.

But is the probability of 44 points in a single quarter high? Didn't they encounter it? What if? What if Lin Tianzhen achieves a feat of 50 points in a single quarter, then the Spurs will not be able to get off the pillar of shame for at least 30 years. This kind of record, just hearing it, is not something that humans can break in 30 years.

At least we need a Martian to do it.

So, when Lin Tian left the court at this time, the Spurs fans were really relieved. For them, this nightmare night was certainly terrible, but at least it wouldn't get worse, right?

"44 points!" Barkley couldn't help but sighed when Lin Tian walked off the court: "This is a number I dare not even think about. Lin even left the court early. Otherwise, with his condition tonight and the current fighting power of the Spurs, it should be easy for him to get another 2-4 points!"

Kenny said: "As I said before, as a player, I am glad that I retired early. I have never been beaten so badly by Lin on the court. I have never been a supporting role in his dream nights."

"But as a commentator and a fan, I am very upset. Lin really gave up too many opportunities to create super historical records and further improve his various records! This is really disappointing and regrettable."

"It would be great if Lin was a stats-first guy, if Lin could shamelessly keep brushing up his stats. In that case, without further ado, Lin could have at least three more 3-point games and at least one 70-point game by now! Even Chamberlain's 90-point record may not be impossible for Lin!"

"pity!"

While the two commentators in the studio kept analyzing and lamenting Lin Tian's behavior and playing style, Lin Tian had already cooperated with the team doctor, quickly put ice packs on his shoulders, knees and other parts, and began to relax and rest.

Leaning back in his chair, Lin Tian tried to relax as much as possible. Although he was not on the court, as long as there was a timeout, free throw or dead ball, the fans in the stadium would continue to shout his name.

Of course everyone knew that Lin Tian would not be able to play again, but everyone wanted to use this to express their excitement.

林天今晚3节比赛的时间内，28投21中，3分球18投14中，罚球10罚8中，其中还包括一串3分球的10投全中和单节44分的疯狂，总共轰下了65分10篮板7助攻5抢断2盖帽！

This night once again belongs to Lin Tian!
"How many points? 65 points? Just take it. What's the big deal? Lin has scored 60 points many times." Kobe, who had just finished the game, shook his head indifferently while packing up his things. 60 points, to Lin Tian, ​​was indeed just that.

"65 points in the whole game, 44 points in the third quarter alone! Didn't play in the fourth quarter!" The reporter who was interviewing Kobe was very satisfied with Kobe's reaction and immediately said the second half of the sentence, waiting to see Kobe's subsequent reaction.

"44 points in a single quarter? It's not bad." After Kobe said that, he stood up, yawned again, turned around and walked out of the locker room.

Just when the reporters were shocked that Kobe was so calm, a scream suddenly came from outside the door, and then Kobe ran back, looked at the reporters and said, "How many points in a single quarter? 44 points? FUXX!"

"The 3-point shot is a test of touch. We all know that for top shooters, once the touch is right, it is normal to hit many 3-point shots in a row. I have also hit 10 3-point shots in a single game, right?"

"It's really great that Lin can make 14 three-pointers in a game, especially since he has broken the NBA record twice. This is really enviable, but I think I can do it too. Maybe next time when I feel good, I have to really try the feeling of shooting as much as I can."

"Besides, Rashad and I are not bad either. I made 7 shots tonight and Rashad made 6. If the game hadn't ended halfway through the third quarter, I think both of us could have made about 10 3-pointers tonight!"

Ray Allen and Lewis sat together. This new generation of Seattle twin stars just teamed up to score 71 points tonight and defeated the Western Conference powerhouse Kings. They are in high spirits at the moment.

The only difference is that the person interviewing them now is not a reporter, but Payton who is acting as a guest reporter.

Payton was ejected tonight for trash talking too much. He returned to the locker room half an hour earlier than the other two. Now he pulled a photographer from somewhere, grabbed a microphone, and started the interview.

"But Lin's 3-pointers were consecutive. At one point he made 11 in a row!"

"What?" Ray Allen was a little bit overwhelmed. He knew better than anyone how big the difference was between making 11 consecutive three-pointers and making 11 three-pointers in the whole game. Especially after you make 3-4 consecutive shots, as long as the opponent is not a fool, he will double-team you madly, and the difficulty of the next shots will increase exponentially.

"I can only say that Lin is really great." Lewis echoed beside Allen: "I was a teammate of Lin, I know how great he is, 11 consecutive... It's really dreamy, but I think Ray and I may not be able to do it! My highest record is 7 out of 7 in a single game, Ray, what about you?"

"I once hit six in a row." Allen's confidence was obviously lacking at this moment.

Then Payton released the trump card: "Of these 11 3-pointers, 10 came from the third quarter of the game. In other words, Lin made 3 consecutive 10-pointers in a single quarter tonight! You two..."

"We two want to kill you Gary! Can't you just finish your words at once? FUXX!!" Allen directly spat out swear words and gave a pair of middle fingers. He finally realized that he was fooled by Payton.

As for Payton, who had successfully played a prank, he laughed loudly, then turned back to the camera and said, "Well, the above real-time report comes from special correspondent Gary Payton. Hahahaha, I wish you all a wonderful night tonight."

"Live broadcast? FUXX!! Gary, you're a bastard!" Allen couldn't hold it anymore. Who would use live broadcast to make fun of his teammates like this?
"It's okay, Ray. It's okay. It's just Washington Interstate Sports. Although it is the highest-rated sports channel in the entire state of Washington, no one watches it outside of here."

"FUXX!! Gary, I'm going to kill you! Rashad, hold him down!"

"Didn't they double-team Lin?" McGrady once again questioned Lin Tian's performance.

"Double-team? Double-teamed throughout the entire third quarter? So what you mean is that they double-teamed Lin like crazy, and he still made 11 three-pointers in a row?"

"Well, I can only say that the Spurs are really a bad team. Popovich is at best a second-rate coach. James is exaggerating. That's all I can say."

"Any team with average level should not allow the opponent's top player to score so many goals in a single quarter when they are doubling down. If it's against us, Tim and I will let him know how powerful we are!"

In New York, Anthony, who had just lost to Lin Tian two days ago, immediately called his buddy Wade: "Devin, did you see that? LeBron and his team lost so badly! They lost worse than the two of us! If I remember correctly, Lin only scored 40 points against you guys, right?"

"At least now in terms of crushing defeat, LeBron ranks first! Hahahahaha, how about giving LeBron a call? As a good buddy, we have to help him out of this predicament. Call him and tell him that Melo sent his most heartfelt blessings."

"What, why didn't I call? Don't you know that LeBron has blocked me since I became the No. 20 pick? Hahahahaha, after you call him, be sure to call me back. I'll wait for you! See you in minutes!"

"This is Lin's latest game highlights. It's not just about the game he had a big breakout tonight, but also includes all of his off-ball running patterns and route analysis over the past two months. I think you guys will definitely want to study this tonight."

Sanders knocked on Garnett's door. Iverson and Garnett had just watched the Pacers' game in its entirety and were in chaos.

"I won't watch it anymore." Iverson shook his head and jumped off the bed: "I will never be able to defend him in my life. What I have to do is to make sure he can't defend me either."

Garnett took the tape and said, "I will study it carefully. If we make it to the finals this year, I will definitely hold Lin down and stop him from going crazy!"

"Yao, come here." In New Jersey, Kidd called Yao Ming, who had just finished taking a shower, out of the shower room with a lewd smile on his face: "I have something to ask you."

"What's wrong?" Dayao sat in his seat curiously, wearing only a pair of shorts. When he tried to touch his clothes, he found nothing. Then he found that his locker was empty: "Where are my clothes?"

"Don't worry about your clothes, answer my question now." Kidd also revealed his evil nature at this moment: "You sent a message to Lin saying that Vince and I threatened to beat him up. Is it true or not?"

"I only said Vince was going to beat him up, not you. They were teammates, so it's nothing to joke about." Yao Ming is such a smart guy? He immediately realized that Kidd was here for revenge, and without thinking, he said that I only bullied Carter, and it had nothing to do with you, Kidd!
"Is that so?" Kidd narrowed his eyes and said with a wicked smile, "Vince took your clothes away. Find a way to explain it to him! This has nothing to do with me."

"FUXX!" Yao Ming cursed and was about to stand up and chase him, but how could he outrun Kidd? Not to mention that Carter had already run away to who knows where. What could Yao Ming do? He could only stand next to Gasol in a flattering manner: "Bao, you can't bear to see me go back like this, right?"

"I can't bear it, but I don't have any clothes to wear." Gasol spread his hands innocently: "My clothes were also taken away. They did it on purpose. Only one of us can go out with pants on tonight."

"You definitely can't bear to let me go out with my bottom naked, right?"

Looking at Gasol's appearance, Yao Ming was helpless.

What could he do? He could only call Ye Zi and ask his wife to bring him some clothes.

I, Yao Ming, have a miserable life!
"Dad, I feel like Uncle Lin has been lying to me." In Charlotte, after watching the game, Curry said to his father Dell in a serious tone, "Three-point shots are very important! Only by shooting accurately can you become stronger and more threatening! That's what Uncle Lin did!"

"He is even the top shooter in the NBA today!"

"My great son!" Old Curry's eyes were about to well up with tears. His precious son's talent in ball feel, touch and dribbling were all better than his father's. However, he was just not smart enough and insisted that his dream was to become the Charlotte Slam Dunk King.

I have tried hard for several years but have not been able to turn my son's dream of dunking into reality. Unexpectedly, during a game tonight, my son actually got it!

"Practice! Let's start practicing 3-pointers now! I'll find you the best shooting coach and I'll get you all the videos of the top NBA shooters I can get! Let's become the best shooters in the NBA!"

"That's right! Just like Lin, first become the best shooter in the NBA, rely on 3-pointers to get enough breakthrough space for yourself, then easily break through and complete dunks, and become the new generation of Charlotte dunk king!" "Dad, do you think Charlotte's new team will choose me? If I can play for Charlotte, then I will definitely have extra motivation!"

"As long as you don't say in the interview that your dream is to become a slam dunk champion." The energy that Curry had just raised was gone in an instant.

It's hopeless. My poor son is hopeless. This big account is a waste.

Large size is broken?

"Seth, Seth! Where's Seth?" Old Curry decided to work hard on his youngest son!

"He's practicing his jumping ability on the second floor." Curry said as a matter of course: "I dunked on him in the backyard this morning, and he cried and said he wanted to dunk back. He's trying hard right now, but I tell you, he doesn't have the talent! He still wants to dunk on me? Humph, he really doesn't know his own limitations!"

Finished!

The small one is also useless.

Old Curry decided to find himself a beer to make himself feel less sad.

That night, the storm caused by Lin Tian swept the entire NBA circle. Everyone was amazed by his madness in this quarter. The major news pages of the next morning were undoubtedly dominated by him, and his reports were everywhere.

After all, his performance of 44 points and 3 consecutive three-pointers in a single quarter can truly be said to be unprecedented and unlikely to be surpassed in the future.

The three-point shot technique will most likely appear on basketball courts earlier because of Lin Tian’s madness, and will appear in every team’s tactical manual. The proportion of this thing is bound to become larger and larger!
But the storm caused by Lin Tian is far more than that.

On the third day after Lin Tian defeated the Spurs, in the Timberwolves' home game against the Trail Blazers, Iverson went crazy! He shot from inside and outside, and his touch was explosive. He scored 61 points in the whole game, and took the initiative to apply for an early exit with 5 minutes left in the game.

After the game, Iverson said in a very pretentious manner: "I don't care about the statistics, as long as I win."

Then, less than two days later, the top two picks of the 03 generation started their first head-to-head duel!

In this game, both Anthony and James played the most perfect game in their careers so far. James scored a big triple-double of 35 points, 11 rebounds and 12 assists, but after a successful breakthrough in the last round, he chose to pass the ball to Bowen, letting him take a 3-point shot. After Bowen missed the 3-pointer, the Knicks grabbed the rebound!
Anthony, who scored 44 points and 7 rebounds that night, seized the opportunity and made a buzzer-beater in the last second, leading the Knicks to win the crucial game!
On the night of this exciting 03 generation showdown, Magic's McGrady also exploded!

He scored 52 points in three quarters, showing his unparalleled touch and energy, but he, who had never scored 60 points before, did not go down to rest when the game was already decided, but continued to shoot on the court.

However, due to the opponent's relentless double-teaming and his own physical decline, McGrady made only 6 of 1 shots in the fourth quarter, and only by making 12 of 8 free throws did he barely manage to reach 62 points.

But the protagonist of this week is not any of the above mentioned people. The person who won the Player of the Week this week is Vince Carter!

Carter scored 4 points in all four games this week, including a 40-point game! The crazy output in four consecutive games not only helped the Nets win four consecutive games, but also allowed the Nets to surpass the Magic again and kill the second place in the Eastern Conference. They are currently ranked second only to the Pistons!
While all the stars in the league were taking turns to show off their firepower, frantically proving that they were no worse than Lin Tian, ​​or not much worse than him, bad news came from the Lakers.

In other words, it's good news for everyone except the Lakers.

O'Neal is injured again.

The big guy's toe has problems again and he needs surgery. He will be absent for at least two months. Ideally, he can return in early March to play for the team in the last month of the regular season and playoffs.

This is certainly bad news for the Lakers.

But for other teams, even Lakers fans, this is definitely good news!
All the top scorers have started, and now even O'Neal is injured. Is it your turn, Kobe, to take the shot?
Kobe: Then it’s up to me?

O'Neal missed the first game due to injury. Kobe faced the three musketeers of the Supersonics and scored 48 points, plus a buzzer-beater against Payton with 4.4 seconds left, which was a good start for his scoring journey.

Then in the second game against the Trail Blazers, Kobe made shots from inside and outside, including three consecutive three-pointers in 90 seconds before the end of the game, including a final three-pointer to tie the game, pulling the team back from the brink of failure. Then Kobe continued to fight in overtime and finally led the team to victory, scoring 3 points in total!
This is also Kobe's highest single-game score in his career!

After the league's top scorers took turns to score high points throughout January, Kobe finally arrived!
Then, after his form declined slightly and he only scored 30 points but led the team to victory, Kobe once again took out his Blue Fire Gatling gun in the game against the Mavericks, scoring 3 points in 52 quarters, making the Mavericks, who were ranked third in the Western Conference, flee in panic!

After the first three quarters, when the Lakers were already leading by 30 points, Kobe made the same choice as Lin Tian in the fourth quarter.

rest!

He gave up playing in the fourth quarter, gave up the opportunity to refresh his career scoring record, ignored the shouts of everyone in Staples Center, including O'Neal, and chose to rest well on the bench and prepare for the next game.

After Kobe's consecutive outbursts and leading the team to consecutive victories, Pierce also took action!

Against the Knicks, Pierce taught Anthony a lesson and completely blew him away in the matchup, scoring a career-high 51 points while limiting Anthony to just 17 points.

Then there was Ray Allen, who was stimulated by Lin Tian's 14 three-pointers in a single game some time ago. This guy finally reached his craziest state in a game at the end of January. He had explosive touch in the first three quarters and scored a career-high 3 three-pointers!
Originally, Allen wanted to make a few more shots in the fourth quarter to see if he could break Lin Tian's record. However, in the fourth quarter, not only did his opponents defend him even more crazily, he could hardly find any chance to shoot.

At the same time, Allen himself felt his legs becoming weak from time to time. Even if he finally found an opportunity to shoot, he would always lack strength to shoot due to being too tired, and thus miss the shot.

In the fourth quarter, the ambitious Allen played for 4 minutes, but he made 4 of 0 three-pointers. His original high hit rate of 12 out of 9 dropped to 16 out of 9. Seeing that his next shot would most likely be a series of misses, Allen decisively chose to give up and went off the court to rest.

Even Nowitzki in the interior was not willing to be lonely. When facing his old rival, the Kings, he also made shots from inside and outside, scoring a career-high 48 points, saving face for the big men in the interior.

Nowitzki's outburst seemed to have ignited the big men's desire to score. After him, O'Neal Jr. scored a career-high 41 points, and even Garnett, who was not good at scoring, had a 43-point outburst.

Then there is the Warriors, who mainly play run-and-gun and don't think about defense at all. They played the craziest scoring game of the season against the bottom-ranked Hawks: the Warriors scored a league-high 141 points in a single game this season, with Arenas scoring 40 points and Richardson 44 points!
The two of them became another pair of teammates after Lin Tian and Jordan, Kobe and O'Neal to score 40+ in the same game!
In short, the whole league went crazy throughout January!

The stars of the entire league are scoring points like crazy. When they pass by the baseball field at their doorstep, they can't wait to pick up the ball and dunk it for fun!
Of course, the person who is most excited about the stars scoring high points and continuously producing masterpieces of their careers is Stern!

The old guy had already discovered that this January would be a little bit different, so he called the referee department early on. The core idea of ​​this call was only one.

"In January, give those stars some preferential treatment! Give those stars some benefits! Give them some whistles that can be blown or not! Those fouls that are usually ignored can be blown! When the stars get 39 points, 49 points, 9 rebounds, 9 assists and other data, you can find ways to help them!"

Yes! The crazy outburst of the stars was partly due to Stern's secret instructions.

But Stern also said something else about the refereeing department.

"We can only keep giving whistles to the entire league for half a month! When January is over and February comes, we must gradually raise the whistle standards! We can't help too much!"

Because Stern knows very well that when stars score high, fans will flock to him for a half-month craze, which greatly increases fans' expectations and enthusiasm for watching the game.

But this thing is like drinking poison to quench thirst. It doesn't matter if it comes occasionally for a month or half a month.

But if it keeps happening, not only will the fans become aesthetically fatigued, but they will also feel that 40 or 50 points are just a thing.

More importantly, it will affect the smoothness and excitement of the game. The confrontation will be greatly reduced, and the players will try hard to find the whistle instead of trying to play properly.

If this situation lasts too long, the impact on the alliance will be absolutely irreversible!

Therefore, we must never use crazy money printing on the whistle to achieve data inflation, as that will cause the league to lose a lot of fans!

In Stern's office, after he carefully and patiently told the bald man in front of him, Stern continued: "Adam, you are my favorite successor! After me, it is very likely that you will succeed as the president of the league. You must remember what I said."

"Don't worry, Mr. President, I won't let you down!"

……

While stars across the league are scoring high points, the Pacers have been in poor form. Although they won three consecutive games against the 03 Big Three, they soon started losing again. During this period, the Pacers also lost Christie and Howard one after another.

Although neither of them had serious injuries, Christie had a grade 4 ankle sprain and Howard had a shoulder contusion, and they both have to rest for 6- weeks.

But the absence of these two players also made the Pacers' entire front line completely empty. The team could only let the useless Jeffries start at the No. 2 position. Bird also quickly found several fire-saving players from the free agent market, and only then did they barely make up the number of players.

Otherwise, the Pacers would really have to let Artest and Lin Tian play the whole game to get through this extremely difficult time.

With the team's rotation almost completely hollowed out and the team unable to even put together a starting lineup, the Pacers' performance throughout January was not very good.

哪怕在这个月中林天场均上场45分钟，爆砍39.1分8.3篮板9.8助攻2.1抢断的超级数据，可却无力让球队走出困境。

There is no way. He can't perform well if he leads a group of marginal players in the league and water cooler players from other teams.

Throughout January, the Pacers had only 1 wins and 8 losses. Lin Tian tried almost everything, but could only barely bring the team's winning rate to 8%.

The team’s manpower problem is really too big!
On a TNT debate show, Barkley once again commented on the Pacers' current situation.

"Look at the Pacers' starting lineup! Brad Miller, Udonis Haslem, Ron Artest, Chris Jeffries, Lin! And look at their bench lineup!"

"Tony Parker, Zayn Tabak, Primoz Brezec, Jamison Brewer..."

"Let me put it this way, if you remove Lin from this lineup and you can only win 10 games a season, I will take my head off and use it as a ball!"

"Or, if you remove Lin, Ron and Tony, and ask the fans about the rest of the Pacers, 99% of them won't be able to name more than two names!"

"This is a team at the bottom of the league! Injuries have completely destroyed them!"

"If it weren't for Lin, they would be a super bad team competing for Dwight Howard or Emeka Okafor!"

“To be honest, if you want to know how strong Lin is, it’s too easy!”

"Let Lin miss a week due to injury, and you will immediately discover his greatness!"

Otherwise, what if Barkley has a poisonous tongue?
Regardless of who wins or loses the debate on TNT, his mouth is really accurate.

Lin Tian is injured! (End of this chapter)
