Eight Hundred and Seventy-One: Unknowingly Approaching the Second Place in History

27 points, 12 rebounds, 12 assists, 4 steals, 3 blocks and only 1 turnover.

Link completed his comeback with perfect statistics.

At first glance, Link’s stats look pretty good. But according to his strength standards, this data is quite "ordinary".

Just like if a substitute player occasionally scores 30 points, people will be surprised. But a superstar scoring 30 points is a common thing.

But if anyone tells you, most of Link's stats were scored before halftime. Then these data are no longer so ordinary in an instant.

"The creator of the first 20-point triple-double in the first half in NBA history!"

"Link made a strong comeback, allowing people to relive the horror of the first man in the League!"

"The Grizzlies have ended their losing streak. Will this be the beginning of another series of winning streaks?"

On the first day of Link's return, he occupied almost all news resources.

Whether you like Link or not, you have to face an overwhelming amount of reports related to Link.

Link looked at the commotion he had caused and smiled with satisfaction.

Now, people probably have forgotten about Draymond Green.

Link really wanted to know what Green's expression was like now. The data he thought would be difficult to beat were actually surpassed easily.

31 points, 7 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals. This is the most glorious moment of Green's career so far.

And what about Link? In addition to scoring and three-pointers in the first game back, all other statistics surpassed that big mouth in all aspects.

Moreover, the playing time was less than 30 minutes.

You know, it took Green 41 minutes to hit the best data of his career.

In the face of Link's half-time triple-double, who would remember Draymond Green's painless statistics?

Link put down his phone with a smile, feeling that the grievance he had been feeling for so long was finally vented.

But this matter is not over yet. After all, the Golden State Warriors are still first in the Western Conference, and the two teams have never really played against each other.

After Link defeated the Warriors and regained the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference for the Grizzlies,

Green was dissatisfied and had no reason to refute.

On December 16th, Link was looking forward to that day more and more. Although the Grizzlies couldn't regain the No. 1 spot in the Western Conference even if they won that day, at least they could prove that they had not lost their dominance of the league.

The game between the two teams was temporarily adjusted to a national live broadcast by ESPN. The ticket price for this game to be held at FedEx Arena has tripled from the previous one.

NBA officials edited promotional advertisements for this game several days in advance and broadcast them on all platforms.

These two teams, which were previously at odds with each other, instantly became the face of the league.

That afternoon, when Link participated in a promotional event for the NBA 2K game as agreed, the host even played a game with Link live.

Link controls himself in the game, while the host controls Draymond Green. In the 1V1 mode, the battle between the two begins in advance.

Green's initial ability in NBA2K15 was only 77, but after more than a month of the season, his ability value has been raised to 81, reaching the threshold of the All-Star.

But compared with Link’s luxurious 99-point rating, it’s still far behind.

In the 2K15 game, Link and James are the only two stars with an ability value above 95.

Due to James' performance in last season's finals, everyone said that the reason why Link's rating is only 1 point higher than James is because 2K's full ability score is only 99.

Otherwise, James might not be able to get so close to Link.

In the game, Link, who is 99, versus Green, who is 81, naturally wins easily.

Link skillfully operated and beat Green 21 to 8. And in a subsequent interview, Link also said, "Of course the result of the actual game will be more disparate than this, there is no doubt about it."

NBA2K Company successfully captured the popularity, and the next day, the number of views on the video of Link and Green's duel in 2K15 skyrocketed.

This not only gave the NBA2K game another wave of publicity, but also made fans talk about the duel between Link and Green.

Green retweeted the video angrily. From the comments, it is easy to see that he was very angry. "Things like ability points cannot protect Link in the real world."

Where's Link? As always there was no response. Because he said he didn't care about Green.

Now Green was very embarrassed, he had to bear with Link scolding him. But when he scolded Link, Link ignored him at all!

It was obviously a situation where both sides were scolding each other, but now it instantly became that Green was being scolded unilaterally.

This situation made Green very angry. Of course, the battle between the two sides was imminent, and it was not just Green and Ji Ji who expected to show their strength.

There is no doubt that with the heat of the game on the 16th, everyone on the two teams has inspired stronger fighting power.

In the next few days, the Grizzlies and Warriors completely displayed their momentum of sweeping the entire army.

On December 9, Link scored 30 points, 10 assists and 12 rebounds to help the Grizzlies beat the Mavericks at home by 13 points.

Chandler Parsons, who had just signed a big contract with the Mavericks, was on the receiving end of a gun. Link blocked 4 of 17 shots and only scored 11 points with a 23.5% shooting rate.

"Link doesn't give Parsons any face at all. He will make Mark Cuban very embarrassed. Who wants to pay a player more than 10 million a year, only to see him being pushed to the ground and rubbed by the opponent during the game? "After the game, even the local commentator in Dallas couldn't help but joke.

Although Parsons has a big contract, he has no ability to compete with Link.

When Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle was asked a question after the game, he shook his head helplessly, "We stayed aggressive and everyone was trying to do the right thing. I think we worked hard enough, but the hard work was just not enough to make us shoot." Score enough goals. Work hard, but sometimes it's not enough for us to beat a player like Link."

The Grizzlies played a great game, but the Golden State Warriors were not to be outdone.

An hour after the game between the Grizzlies and the Mavericks ended, the Warriors also killed the Rockets, who had been aggressive this season, with 12 points at home.

The "Splash Brothers" scored 41 points together and won 14 consecutive games.

Rockets coach McHale expressed his dissatisfaction with the team after the game, "We lost 32 points in the fourth quarter, and no one's defense was particularly good."

Two games, two wins, two coaches beaten to the point of losing their temper.

The war between the Warriors and the Grizzlies seemed to have started before their game started.

Facing Mr. Qiao's Hornets on December 12, Link still showed no mercy.

Link completely humiliated the defense of Lance Stephenson and Michael Gilchrist. He scored 25 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists, helping a total of 4 Grizzlies score in double figures.

On the other side, the Warriors continued their winning streak on the road, and this time they lost to the Mavericks, who lost to the Grizzlies in their last game.

Curry and Thompson combined for 54 points this time, and Green also scored 20 points and 8 rebounds.

Both sides are on a crazy winning streak, and the other 28 teams in the league seem to be accompanying them.

As of December 14, the Grizzlies and Warriors still had not lost.

That night, the Grizzlies defeated the 76ers and won their fourth consecutive victory since Link's return. As expected, Link's victory put the Grizzlies on the winning streak again.

After encountering the Pelicans' desperate resistance, the Warriors still relied on their strong strength to last until the end, winning the best 16-game winning streak in team history!

After the game, fans all over the world were so excited that they couldn't sleep.

Because next time the Grizzlies and Warriors play again, they won't have to fight openly and secretly!

The ultimate showdown between the Grizzlies and Warriors is finally on the agenda!

That night, ESPN used an eye-catching headline to warm up the game, "In two days, no matter what, a great record will be ended!"

For the Warriors, if they lose to the Grizzlies, the best winning streak in team history will stall at 16 games.

This is well known to fans. But what record will the Grizzlies end? Most people are confused.

It wasn't until they read the ESPN article that fans discovered to their horror that Link had unknowingly recorded a triple-double in six consecutive games so far this season!

And as long as Link scores another triple-double in the next game, he will be as famous as "Big O" Oscar Robertson and Jordan, tied for second place in NBA history for consecutive triple-doubles!

The highlights of the Warriors vs. Grizzlies game are too numerous to count.

After Green won 16 consecutive victories, he continued to make harsh words on social media, "In the next game, we will win the crown."

And what about Link? True to form, he continued to ignore Green.

Link's neglect of Green had made the loudmouth who longed for respect even more irritated.
