One Hundred and Fifty-Four: The Possibility of Making History

Not long after the start of the second quarter, the Grizzlies led the Celtics by 5 points. When "big baby" Glen Davis and Garnett were ready to fight fiercely with the black and white bears, they found that they didn't plan to join the hand-to-hand game at all.

Two consecutive attacks, all initiated by Link. The guy seemed to be transformed in an instant, becoming a point guard with a height of 2.03 meters. Just now, the alley pass he sent to Tony Allen near the center line was replayed over and over again on the big screen.

At this point, Link has already sent out 4 assists, and Rondo has only had 3 assists so far.

Link's omnipotence is already known to everyone. Unlike Evan Turner and the like, Link is really omnipotent, not proficient in everything. Grant Hill is 12th on the NBA's all-time triple-double list, just above Michael Jordan. Therefore, Link also naturally inherited this almighty skill.

In fact, Link has obtained the "quasi-triple-double" data more than once this season, but that is not recognized by league statistics after all. Even if you have 10 points, 10 assists and 9 rebounds, it's not a triple-double.

Link has undoubtedly suffered in this regard. His statistics are balanced in all aspects, but there has never been a time when all three items reached double digits at the same time.

But today, Rivers always felt a little uneasy. If the two rounds just now were just a flash of inspiration from Link, that would be fine. But if the two rounds just now were deliberately arranged by the Grizzlies... then Link must have a lot of assist opportunities today, and his numbers may rise faster.

But on second thought, an undrafted triple-double on Pierce? Well, I must be thinking too much!

Rivers continues to stand on the sidelines to supervise the game, and the Grizzlies can't get such an easy opportunity every time. He believes that the opponent will eventually return to the low post and fight the Celtics.

But now, the first thing the Celtics have to solve is their own offense. Rondo's embarrassment on the offensive end is still fresh in his mind.

Just when Rivers was at a loss, Ray Allen stood up. In the first quarter, Ray Allen had little performance due to his matchup with Tony Allen. But now, watching the team's score gap widen, Ray Allen knew he had to stand up.

After Ray Allen settled in the Celtics, he basically only played a three-point shooting role. One-third of his shots per game came from beyond the arc.

This time, Rondo sent a good pass again and assisted Ray Allen in a three-pointer. Tony Allen is too aware of Ray Allen's playing style. After all, he was also a member of the Green Army's championship lineup. But a historic shooter like Ray Allen isn't the type that he can't shoot if you give him a little distraction.

Ray Allen's 3-pointer went through the net, and the giant who barely had the ball pulled the Celtics back from the brink.

This is the advantage of a giant team. With so many stars, there will always be one who can stand up.

"The offense and defense of the two sides were simply amazing. Seeing the Grizzlies about to take off, Ray Allen used a three-pointer to narrow the gap again. This is the strength of the top teams in the East. The Grizzlies should never think that stabilize yourself!"

Link was very fortunate. Fortunately, Ray Allen was not the kind of person who likes to talk trash, otherwise the smell of gunpowder on both sides would continue to heat up.

Ray Allen's goal made the Grizzlies very helpless. Their defense was tight enough, but Ray Allen just seized a fleeting opportunity.

But Hollins is not nervous at all. How many goals can Ray Allen make with such a shot? Waiting for the third quarter and the fourth quarter, when his physical fitness declines, can he still be so stable?

The Celtics probably know best how good Tony Allen's defense is. At the beginning, Pierce had no way to take Tony Allen on the training ground. The Celtics' offense has begun to struggle, and Ray Allen's three-pointer can only help the Celtics continue their life, not regenerate completely.

This time, when Link took the ball again, the Celtics' defense changed.

Instead of defending the interior, they wanted to cut off Link's passing lanes as much as possible.

Seeing that there was no passing target, Link decided to attack by himself. Pierce was so excited, he vowed to make that number 0 pay!

"I thought you could only pass the ball! But I have to say that choosing singles is the worst decision you have ever made!" Pierce continued to chatter, and Link felt that his ears had not been quiet since he stepped into the arena. Pass.

Link post-up against Pierce, Pierce suddenly felt like he was in the finals, dealing with the goddamn No. 24...

The rest of the Celtics didn't dare to double-team either. They had already seen Link's passing skills in just two rounds.

Link advanced to the mid-range like this. He shook his shoulder to the right, but actually turned to the left to prepare for a jumper.

Pierce didn't sway in the first shot, and only took off and blocked when Link turned over for the second time! He was still thinking, Link's subject ratio is too watery! Optics learned the action, but did not learn the essence! It is too deliberate, but it is impossible for him to shake off his counterpoint!

But when Pierce jumped into the air, his joking thoughts disappeared. Because Link didn't jump at all this time, it was just a fake shot!

It seems that he really learned the essence.

Pointing to Pierce, Link took a step forward and picked the basket. This offensive habit is really very similar to Kobe. If you compare the pictures of the two together, you will find that the similarity is extremely high!

The Celtics fans in the audience opened their mouths wide. That yellow-skinned No. 0 actually won Paul Pierce in a one-on-one match! All of a sudden, the shouting and scolding related to Link in the stands suddenly disappeared. Their attitude towards Link changed from contempt at the beginning to fear!

The NBA is a stage where the weak eat the strong. Want to be respected? Then be afraid of them!

"Excellent offensive footsteps, Link's every step is clearly explained, and the last one is indeed full of confusion. God, what else can this guy do? No, exactly, what else is What this guy can't do?" Mike Brin was stunned by Link's performance. This was the first time he watched Link play at the scene. But he can guarantee that Link's performance is better than what the media describes!

Off the court, Hollins laughed from ear to ear, that kid Link is really becoming more and more like a star!

With 7 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds, Link added two more points to his data sheet.

In the whole game, only Rondo's data all-around can be matched with Link's beauty, but whether Rondo can score in double figures... Not sure.

In the next few rounds, the Celtics couldn't organize a decent offense at all. They were so defended that they lost their offensive focus, and they could only shoot whoever had the chance.

Just now, Ray Allen made a three-pointer, and now he has immediately become "Big Baby" Davis. None of them can score in a row, and every attack is intermittent.

Rondo also tried to play a few times by himself, but once broke into the restricted area and was smashed by Gasol, and another close-range jumper near the basket was interfered by Conley and failed to hit...

Rondo's scoring ability looks at the whole league, it is estimated that it is also in the bottom ranks.

The Celtics were biting hard with sporadic resistance, and the Grizzlies were getting better and better.

Link and Conley's high basketball IQs make the Grizzlies' offense silky smooth, and when a team has two points of attack, their offense is extremely versatile.

This team, which is known not to attack, actually played well in front of the Celtics. The voices in the North Shore Gardens became more and more subdued, and by the end of the second quarter, the placards that insulted the Grizzlies players were no longer even visible.

After halftime, the Grizzlies returned to the locker room with a nine-point advantage. The Celtics had eight scoring records in the first half, but no one scored in double figures. This statistic is a good indicator of the Celtics' offensive state. They can't find any offensive strengths and can only rely on everyone to try.

This kind of team attack is not bad, but not stable enough. How can the offense play when the role players feel cold and the stars can't stand up?

On the Grizzlies side, Link has scored 12 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds! Hollins' tactics showed Link's versatility to the fullest.

Having said that, while it is nothing new for NBA players to record triple-doubles in their rookie seasons, those who can do this are usually high-draft rookies with awe-inspiring talent.

For example, Oscar Robertson, who scored a triple-double in his NBA debut, was already a well-known star player in the United States before the draft, and finally entered the league as the No. 1 overall pick.

But an undrafted pick with a triple-double in his rookie season? Looking at the entire NBA history, it has never appeared!

The undrafted rookie season in the NBA is generally just survival, and it is good to have a stable playing time. Get a triple-double? That is really a luxury.

But Link has the conditions to create history today. As long as he can play stably in the second half, triple-doubles are simply within reach.

Mike Brin was in high spirits, and he may have the honor of witnessing history.

The first undrafted player in history to have a triple-double in his rookie season, well, that title is quite bluffing.
