Chapter 72 Breaking the record again

Liu Han began to explode after entering December. His amazing three-point shooting rate amazed everyone, and domestic fans also began to know this young man who shined in a foreign country, and domestic fans even talked about it. It is Liu Han who is not a professional athlete, but a "wild road" who barely graduated from elementary school. Chinese people have always had the idea that "the master is among the people". The existence of Liu Han confirms this point of view.

On December 96, 12, the Lakers came to Minnesota to challenge the Timberwolves away.

Kevin Garnett, a high school student selected by the Timberwolves with the fifth overall pick in the first round last season, has improved rapidly. His excellent physical talent allows this young player to block shots inside and keep up with ordinary outside players on the outside. Kevin Garnett did not play this game. He was injured in the previous game and is now recovering.

Liu Han started again in this game. Facing the Timberwolves whose internal and external strength is weaker than the Lakers, Liu Han played very easily.

The rookie Stephen Marbury selected by the Timberwolves this season has been resistant to joining the Timberwolves from the beginning. The place where this black player who grew up in New York most wants to go is the Big Apple.

刘汉在这场比赛中出场29分钟，14投11中的命中率高的惊人，其中三分球6投6中更是让人惊叹，34分8助攻的数据也让媒体对刘汉的未来进一步看好。

O'Neal played 32 minutes in this game and easily scored a double-double of 22 points and 10 rebounds.Kobe also played 12 minutes in this game and scored 10 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists. Kobe's attitude changed after being abandoned by coach Harris for a few games. Kobe, who no longer shot wildly, began to show his talent and potential.

In the end, the Lakers won the game 110 to 82. The Lakers have won five consecutive victories since December.After this game, Liu Han won the first honor of his NBA career. He was elected the best player in the Western Conference of the week. This is the first league honor for a rookie player this season.

After returning to Los Angeles, the team's training on the second day continued as usual. During the training, Van Exel was injured again. He accidentally fell and sprained his left hand while taking a shower after training. He needs to rest for at least two weeks. It seems that even God They are all helping Liu Han.

Van Exel's injury gave Liu Han a chance. Apart from Liu Han, the only point guard on the team that can play now is Rumil Robinson, who is both flawed. Obviously, the latter will not receive too much attention from the head coach. $20 a year for a player who can't even be a bench "towelman" is his crowning achievement.

On December 12, local time in the United States, the Lakers welcomed the Sacramento Kings at the Great Western Forum.

In this game, Safina came to the scene to watch Liu Han's game. Although Safina has come to the Lakers' home court many times to watch the game since Liu Han joined the Lakers, it is very likely that Liu Han will win the game. Therefore, Safina paid more attention to it. In Saiqiang, Safina told Liu Han that he hoped he could perform well in this game.

Originally, Liu Han's character was not a particularly strong person, but after entering the NBA, Liu Han discovered that there is more competition between each other, because every player knows that more opportunities to play and more data means With more interests, honor is important, but when it comes to their own interests, few people will choose to be humble.

O'Neill and Liu Han have always gotten along well. The first reason is that Liu Han is a very sincere person, and he will directly express what he has to say. Although he is direct, he is not forceful.The second reason is that Liu Han does not affect O'Neal's status in the team, and the better Liu Han plays on the outside, the less pressure on O'Neal on the inside.

Before the game, Liu Han greeted his old teammate Teus Edney. Edney finally took the starting point guard position in the Kings. Although Edney is very short, the Kings are now the point guard There is a shortage of people at this position, so Edney recently got a starting opportunity.

After the start of the game, Liu Han did not relax because Edney was his old teammate. He defended against Edney in defense. Except for his speed, other Liu Hans were better than Edney. Nicky is much taller.

The Lakers' offense in the first round was initiated by O'Neal. Coach Harris emphasized that after the opening, he must first penetrate the opponent's inside line.

The Kings' starting center is Alden Polynes, and O'Neal has an absolute advantage.

The first two offensive rounds of the Lakers were completed by O'Neal. Every time, O'Neal bumped away from Polynes for dunks. The 220-pound Polynes had nothing to do with O'Neal.The Kings began to double-team the inside.

After the Kings started double-teaming O'Neal, the Lakers had more outside opportunities. Liu Han began to frequently hit three-pointers from the outside.The Kings didn't dare to let Teus Edney defend Liu Han from the very beginning. They let Richmond defend Liu Han, but Liu Han was helpless in this game, and he made all the first three shots in the first quarter. , and they were all three-pointers. Even though Richmond had already thrown himself in front of Liu Han, he was able to hit it.

Liu Han started practicing step-back jump shots after his right hand was injured. This technique is very simple, but the most important thing is the touch, and Liu Han's touch is hardly affected by the opponent's defense. Richmond is not tall enough to seal The player who blocks Liu Han, and when the opponent jumps up to block the block, Liu Han can also avoid the opponent's defense through a skillful step-back jumper.

首节比赛刘汉打满全部时间，三分球5投5中，还有一次突破上篮和两次罚球，单节拿下19分。湖人队也以35比23领先对手12分进入第二节。

Liu Han took a 5-minute break at the beginning of the second quarter. After Lumil Robinson came on the court, he started to fight. Kobe ran hard on the court but couldn't catch the ball.The Kings gradually caught up with the score relying on substitutes.

Liu Han played again at 6 minutes into the second quarter. The returning Lakers still attacked first from the inside. After O'Neal made consecutive strong attacks, Liu Han started to fire from the outside and took three consecutive retreats. The defensive player's jumper three-pointer. So far, Liu Han has made 8 of 8 three-pointers. He is very likely to break the NBA single-game three-pointer record.

At the end of the first half, the Lakers entered the third quarter with a 68-47 lead of 21 points.

After a short break at halftime, Liu Han continued to play. After playing, Liu Han received O'Neal's inside ball and hit two three-pointers, tying the record is just around the corner.

The Kings began to strengthen their defense against Liu Han on the outside, and no one wanted to be the background board of the historical record.

Six minutes into the third quarter, Liu Han made a three-threat action against Richmond's defense, and then dribbled to the right to break through.Richmond quickly adjusted his center of gravity and tried to get close to Liu Han, but Liu Han suddenly dribbled the ball under his crotch and turned to the left. Richmond continued to adjust his intention to block Liu Han's breakthrough.Liu Han withdrew his left foot and quickly made his most proficient action—a step-back jumper. Richmond lost his center of gravity and couldn’t jump up to block the shot. He could only raise his hands as high as possible to interfere Liu Han's shot.

Liu Han, who retreated beyond the three-point line, ignored Richmond's defense and jumped up to shoot a three-pointer. The basketball flew into the net with a beautiful arc. Liu Han tied the NBA single-game three-pointer record .

Under the prompt of the commentary, all the fans stood up and applauded Liu Han when they knew that Liu Han had tied the record. Some enthusiastic fans even shouted the slogan of MVP. In their minds, Liu Han was the MVP of this game.

Liu Han, who returned to his own half, was also congratulated by his teammates. O'Neal directly hugged Liu Han's head and rubbed it fiercely. He was also very happy that Liu Han could have such a performance, because the stronger the team, Then the hope of winning the championship is greater.

When Liu Han made this three-pointer, the Lakers had already led the opponent by 31 points, but the head coach Harris did not replace Liu Han. Faced with the opportunity to create a new record, Harris was unwilling to offend others. If he now If Liu Han is replaced, it is estimated that he will not offend Liu Han alone, but will offend the fans in the entire arena, and maybe even offend the top management of the league.

After Liu Han tied the record, the Kings began to defend Liu Han with all means. They were unwilling to be the background board of the new record.

When the third quarter was about to end, Liu Han dribbled the ball just past halftime, and Richmond released Liu Han two meters away. He would never believe that someone would make a shot just past halftime.

Liu Han played very hard in this game. He hoped that his beloved girl would be happy for the new record he created.

Liu Han stopped just after halftime, about 3 meters away from the three-point line.He looked around at his teammates, as if he was thinking about who to pass the ball to, Richmond began to adjust his posture, thinking that he would keep up with Liu Han without the ball, and he couldn't give this guy any chance.But what everyone didn't expect was that Liu Han shot directly at this place. This shooting choice seemed to be even more brain-twitching than Van Exel. No player can guarantee a hit rate from such a distance.

Liu Han's shooting posture is the same as his usual shooting posture, but the arc of the basketball passing through the air is larger, and the rotation is faster. After flying for a certain distance, the basketball fell directly without touching any edge of the basket Into the nest.

Liu Han created a new record for three-pointers in a single game in the NBA. At the same time, he also created a new record for consecutive three-pointers in a single game. His 12-of-12 shooting rate surprised everyone, including the Kings players and coaches.

When Liu Han set a new record, Coach Harris replaced Liu Han and O'Neal, because now the Lakers are almost leading by 40 points.

Liu Han's 12 three-pointers in three quarters turned the entire fourth quarter into garbage time. Kobe became more and more depressed on the court. He thought he should be the best rookie in this class, but now he can only be on the bench Watching this guy who once brought him shame set a new record, Kobe silently vowed in his heart that he must catch up with this guy and prove to everyone that he is the best one.

After the game ended, no one paid attention to the score of the game. All eyes were attracted by the new record created by Liu Han. After hearing the news, domestic fans and media were also conquered by Liu Han's performance. The media are now commenting on Liu Han's performance. They all think that Liu Han is one of the hopeful stars of the alliance, but some media think that Liu Han's performance is not tough enough, and he seldom breaks through. It is not enough to support Liu Han to become a superstar, because in the current position, a player who cannot break through and kill the inside cannot win the championship, just like Reggie Miller.
