For any NBA player, it is an extremely difficult challenge to score 30 points in half a game. Because this has high requirements for players' scoring ability, touch stability, physical fitness and other aspects.
There are only 24 minutes in the half game, and only 24 points in a minute. It can be seen that scoring 30 points in the half is a remarkable achievement.
Those who can score 30 points at halftime are not simple characters. Kobe, James, Durant...Among them, Kobe even scored 30 points in the half more than 20 times, which is really abnormal.
Indeed, 30 points at halftime is not an unprecedented record. But being able to do this at least proves that you have top-level strength.
You see, now Link's name has begun to be discussed with Kobe and James. For him, this is a kind of success.
At this point, the game has reached the fourth quarter. But the fans are no longer interested in the game, but are still reminiscing about the scenes of the first half.
Link sat on the bench and played a game of "bottle toss" with Randolph. The two take turns tossing the Gatorade water bottle, and whoever can stand up when the bottle is thrown to the ground wins the $1,000 bet.
It was really helpless for Link to do this. After all, the fourth quarter was too boring, and he didn't need to play, so he could only find some other fun to pass the time.
At the end of the three quarters, Link had scored 43 points -- a career high.
At that time, the Grizzlies had led the Rockets by 28 points. To put it bluntly, the entire fourth quarter was garbage time, and Link made the Grizzlies' main players clock out of get off work in the third quarter.
Before the start of the fourth quarter, Stevens also specifically asked for Link's opinion. If he wants to go out and score more points, Stevens will be very supportive.
But Link waved his hand and said that he would not play in the fourth quarter, scoring points during garbage time, even if he got a high score, it was worthless. Moreover, it doesn't make sense to compete for points.
Instead of scoring points in garbage time, Lin Ke would rather end the game with the glory of "31 points in the half, 43 points in three quarters". Anyway, there are still many opportunities to get higher scoring data in the future.
As a result, Link was on the bench throughout the fourth quarter. And he has become the only reason why the fans are still staying at the scene.
"How should I put it? The Rockets still have a long way to go. They have talented players such as Harden, Jeremy Lin and Parsons, but it will take some time for them to really gain a foothold in the West. .”
"Yes, the Grizzlies have always been a team that has reached the Western Conference Finals for two consecutive seasons, while the Rockets have not played in the playoffs in the past three seasons. This game can also help the Rockets see clearly that they and the How big is the gap between the real western powerhouses."
The commentators no longer explained the game itself, but started the "Bear Blowing Conference".
It is impossible to analyze how the Grizzlies won. Because the strength of the Grizzlies is obviously stronger than the Rockets, there is no reason for this game, it is because they are stronger, so the Grizzlies slaughtered the Rockets.
In this way, the commentators are not bragging about the Grizzlies, but are actually analyzing the reasons for today's game for the fans.
Competitive sports, food is the original sin.
The tormenting fourth quarter finally ended, 118 to 95, and the Grizzlies beat the Rockets by 23 points at home. After slaughtering the Bucks with 18 points in the previous game, the Grizzlies immediately set a new record for the largest win of the season.
After the game, Harden returned directly to the locker room without being interviewed by any reporter, and he was even unwilling to stay on the court for a long time.
Today, Harden's performance in the second half did not pick up. He made 4 of 18 and 1 of 6 three-pointers in the game. He scored 18 points in a miserable state and left in despair.
After the performance of Fengshen in the first three games, he was suddenly photographed on the ground with a stick today.
Harden must be very uncomfortable. As the saying goes, the higher you climb, the harder you fall.
Jeremy Lin, who was on the "Time" magazine with Link last season, smiled wryly and hugged Link. Jeremy Lin was happy for him that Link could win this statistic. But the Rockets lost so badly... Jeremy Lin couldn't be happier.
And McHale's embarrassed expression when facing the reporter's camera, Link felt heartbroken when he saw it.
The entire rocket was beaten to autism.
So there is no need to spend too much time talking with people like McHale before the game, just beat him up.
In the end, Link walked off the court amidst the collective cheers of the Grizzlies fans. The fans still insisted on being present during garbage time, just to give Link the greatest respect of Memphis at the end.
In this situation, no player in the history of the Grizzlies has had such treatment.
As the commentator said in this game, Link is the veritable King of Memphis.

While the Grizzlies slaughtered the Rockets at home, the defending champion Miami Heat won the Eagles in an away game with a score of 95 to 89 at the Phillips Center in Atlanta.
After the game, LeBron James, who scored 21 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists, hugged his teammates one by one. It seems that James' mood is very calm. After all, it was just an ordinary victory for him.
After winning this game, the Heat's record became 5 wins and 1 loss. Moreover, this is already the Heat's fourth consecutive victory. Victory, for James and the Heat, is routine. So, nothing to get excited about.
After returning to the locker room, James saw Wade in a suit and leather shoes. Wade did not play today because of a knee injury, which is why the game was a little anxious.
"Good job guys, I knew you would be okay." Wade and James embraced warmly, not caring whether his suit would be stained with sweat.
"How are you resting? You will be back for the next game." James sat in front of the locker and looked at the schedule.
In the next game, the Heat will go away to Tennessee to fight the Grizzlies!
"I just have some soreness in my knees. A game of rotation should relieve a lot. By the way, you may not know it when you are playing on the court. Link faced the Rockets today and scored 43 points, which is a new high in his career." Wade He took out his phone and shook it. In the locker room, he was paying attention to the Heat and Grizzlies game at the same time.
"43 points? That kid is getting more and more fierce. But considering that the opponent is the Rockets, it's not surprising. Every time he meets the Rockets, it's as if he has been beaten." James smiled and waved his hands, the Rockets and the Rockets Of course, James also knew about Link's relationship.
But this strong No. 6 forward didn't notice that his good partner Wade had a serious face.
"This is not a simple 43 points in a single game, LeBron. Link scored 43 points without playing a minute in the fourth quarter! He scored 31 points in the half game and beat James Harden He couldn't find a way to play! The Rockets' defense is like a playground for him, and he can play as he wants. In the next game, we may encounter unprecedented tenacious resistance in Tennessee. That kid has made too much progress Hurry up! I'm afraid he is really an opponent now."
"43 points in three quarters? 31 points in the half?" James frowned slightly after hearing what Wade said.
At the beginning, when he heard that Link scored 43 points, James didn't really care too much. After all, for him, 43 points is not an exaggerated number.
But learning that Link scored 31 points at halftime, James was not calm.
For the first time, James felt that Link would be a threat.
As Wade said, Link's progress is too fast! Before James could react, there was another strong enemy.
