1075: Likelihood of 50+15+15(1/2)
Harden didn't take Link's words seriously at first, and he felt that Link was just bluffing.
But now Harden discovered that Link was not joking with him!
At this time, the game had reached the fourth quarter, but the Rockets were still 3 points behind the Grizzlies.
In the past quarter, as long as the Rockets are about to overtake the score, Link will always stand up in time to resolve the crisis.
Just like when he faced Beverly and Ariza's double-team in the third quarter, he shot 2+1 with one-handed shot.
Link may have scored goals by himself, or assists by himself. But no matter what, he can always fulfill his promise.
Ryan Anderson made 3 of 4 three-pointers in the past third quarter and scored 12 points in a single quarter!
But it was useless. The Rockets were always beaten back by Link when they overtook the score.
"The game has entered a white-hot stage. I can't believe that the Rockets have not yet surpassed the score. Link's willpower is too strong, and he has not yet fallen!"
After Hubby Brown finished speaking, he looked at the scores of both sides on the big screen.
The fourth quarter just started, and the scores of both sides had already exceeded 100.
There is no doubt that this will be another exciting game with high scores!
The Rockets continued to attack, although they could not surpass them, but because the score difference was small, they were always full of energy.
This time, when Ariza blocked Link again and planned to force Link to switch defense, Link did not compromise.
He leaned against Ariza, turned around flexibly, and then stood in front of Harden again.
"Don't keep running, James!" Link pressed down on the center of gravity, his eyes fiercely.
But Harden was not afraid. After approaching Link, Harden deliberately grabbed Link's arm and then jumped to shoot! This move has been tried and done by Harden.
"Link made a foul, James Harden got another free throw opportunity!"
Harden did not confront Link head-on, but it was OK to commit a foul.
"Damn, is that a foul? You fuckingly see clearly!?" Jogel could no longer bear it now.
If Harden can make fouls every time, then can he still play the game!
However, the referee ignored Jogel. If Quinn Snyder hadn't stopped Jogel in time, he might have had a technical foul.
The fans at the scene were also angry and booed Harden.
Even Hubi Brown, who was not disgusted with using rules, couldn't stand it.
If Harden takes advantage of such a loophole when he encounters strong defense, it is completely killing the viewing.
Harden doesn't care about people's gaze. As long as he can score, he's good!
He has become stronger and he will no longer let Link control the game wantonly!
Link, who was fouled, was not very upset.
He knew that being angry was useless.
Instead of getting an unnecessary temper, it is better to think about how to fight next attack.
Harden made two free throws, and the difference between the two sides reached a hurdle of 1 point.
Everyone was focused, and no one knew whether Link could continue to stop the Rockets. Every time this moment, the Grizzlies seemed to be in a state of storm.
Link had scored 38 points at this time, and his scoring threat made D'Antoni very afraid.
So in the fourth quarter, his command was to shrink defense as much as possible Link!
Link can kill the game, but it's not necessarily the rest of the Grizzlies.
So this time, when Link broke through again, at least four Rocket players wearing red jerseys came over like dumplings!
Their double-teams were very fast, and it was obvious that they had planned it long ago.
Link gave the ball to Gasol before the pass route was blocked, and Gasol fired a long-range shot from the bottom corner on the right.
But this time, Espanyol's shot deviated from the basket and failed to hit!
"This is the Rockets' opportunity, Gasol failed to seize this shot!"
D'Antoni stood up, and sure enough, his double-teaming tactics worked!
This time, he wants to see how Link stops the Rockets.
It only takes one more time, and the Rockets can turn the situation around!
Just as everyone sighed for Gasol's misfortune, Link jumped high among the many players wearing red jerseys.
He got the basketball that was knocked out of the frame at an incredible height and stuffed the ball back directly through Capela.
"boom!"
There was a loud noise from the basket, and Link rode on Capela's back.
Hubby Brown rubbed his eyes and he was completely stunned!
"How is this possible? Fuck!" D'Antoni covered his head with both hands, as if he had been on a roller coaster. The last second was heaven, and the next second was hell.
"Another time, Link stood up when the Rockets had the chance to overtake the score! I don't know how he did it, I don't know how he jumped up among the four Rockets players to catch the rebound. I just know that the Rockets' dream of overtaking the score has broken down again!"
After Link landed, he pounded his chest violently.
At this time, he had scored 40 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists triple-double.
This exaggerated data is beyond the reach of Harden this season.
Most importantly, this is not over yet, and Link's data will continue to rise!
Hubby Brown swallowed, and Link was getting closer and closer to a data that no one had ever reached.
In the following few rounds, Link's performance made James Harden feel more and more desperate.
He finally managed to break through Link once and make a layup, but after that, Link used a double-player layup to continue to widen the gap.
Harden attracted double teams and assisted Gordon to make a three-pointer. After that, Link immediately used a subtle pass from behind to assist Conley with a long shot.
Harden thought that he would not lose to Link after he had become stronger, but now he vaguely felt that it did not seem to have any effect when he became stronger.
He is only one step away from overtaking the score, and is one step away from defeating Link.
However, in this step, Harden found that he could not catch up with him no matter what.
Although Link did not score another 63 points today, the Rockets were suppressed by him so badly.
In this way, the game reached the last 32 seconds in a minute.
Just now, Harden used the method of hitting the car again and successfully got a foul from Dinwiddie.
After two free throws, Harden has scored 44 points today! Of which 15 points come from free throws!
This goal allowed the Rockets to narrow the score difference to 1 point again!
This is the Rockets' last chance, and if they can defend this attack, they still have the possibility of killing the game.
But if Link scored again, the game would be difficult for them.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Link.
Can he continue to be consistent in his words and deeds?
At this time, Link had scored 48 points, 14 rebounds and 15 assists.
This means that he only needs to score another goal and grab another rebound to become the first player in NBA history to score 50+15+15 data in a single game!
That’s right, even if Chamberlain and others of ancient times were included, there was no such data in NBA history!
Chamberlain once scored amazing data of 53 points, 32 rebounds and 14 assists in a single game.
But strictly speaking, he is still one assist short of 50+15+15!
Although this is not the first time Hubby Brown has witnessed Link making history, his heart is still beating wildly at this time!
That guy will do miracles, right? Well, he can always!
Link was delaying time outside the three-point line, and it was obvious that he didn't want to leave even one more second for the Rockets.
In fact, Link now doesn't know what he is about to create historical records, and he doesn't even know what his current data is.
In the entire fourth quarter, he was just fighting for victory.
He only knew that the Rockets were only 1 point away from overtaking. And he had to stand up and stop all this!
25 consecutive wins start record, the pride of old-school scorers, the first place in the MVP rankings
Link has too many reasons to lose!
With 8 seconds left in the offensive time in 24 seconds, Link slowly approached outside the three-point line.
Ariza moved back in small steps and maintained a safe distance from Link.
At the same time, behind Ariza, the Rockets players were ready to cast a high wall in front of Link.
Link knew that if he chose to break through, the chance would be bad. He was double-teamed by four people, even if he wanted to pass the ball.
So, while Ariza retreated, he suddenly pulled up a jump shot and made a three-pointer!
To be continued...
