533: An unexpected lull

With just over a minute left in the game, Grizzlies fans can't wait to start celebrating.

The atmosphere was out of control, and no Grizzlies fan was able to sit on the bench and watch the game calmly. Faced with the birth of a great team record, Memphis fans, who have been oppressed for more than ten years, finally have the confidence to cheer.

"This will be the most important day in the history of basketball in Memphis, and the city has never been more glorious than it is today! We're just one minute away from breaking the 21st Century League record for the best regular season! ”

Hubi. Brown also stood up, and in this atmosphere, a lot of one's movements are uncontrollable. This suffocating atmosphere does not leave any room for the brain to think at all.

With the cheers of all the fans in the court, Link took possession of the ball and walked to the Clippers halfcourt.

Matt. Barnes is still fierce, and he is indeed a true fighter. Because, if other people were beaten like this, they would probably have been deflated a long time ago.

28 points, 6 rebounds, 7 assists plus 2 blocks and 2 steals, don't get me wrong, this is not Matt. Barnes' stats, but Link's stats on Matt Barnes' head.

Therefore, if ordinary people want to be beaten like this, they will have no heart for a long time. But Matt. Barnes is different, he is still trying his best to cause problems for Link.

At this point, the score was 97-91, and the Grizzlies led by six points.

In the beginning, the Clippers were originally desireless. But after the opening first round of attack, Paul got serious.

He really didn't know if the Clippers could get past the Grizzlies in the playoffs. So, I wanted to play the Grizzlies in the regular season to see how far the Clippers could go.

Then, the score became 91-97, and that was it.

"Link won't let Barnes go, Barnes is a warrior, but it's not courage alone that can stop the league's most dangerous player!"

Link looked at the fans, at his teammates, and finally, at Barnes. Although the Grizzlies only led by 7 points, this attack was enough for the Clippers to give up resistance.

This offense will give the Grizzlies a league record they have been dreaming of.

Link couldn't help but lower his center of gravity and quickly alternate between his left and right hands on the dribble. Barnes was on the lookout, and he never knew what it meant to give up.

Just as Link was about to accelerate, Gasol Jr.'s cover tacitly arrived. Link's soles were as if they were spring-loaded, and they "popped" Link out in one fell swoop.

Barnes and Gasol are entangled and unable to get out of it quickly. So, DeAndrew. Jordan had to make up for Link.

Coincidentally, it's Barnes and Jordan Jr. again.

At the beginning of the game, it was Link who passed Barnes, played Jordan Jr., scored the first goal, and got off to a good start for the Grizzlies.

And in the final game of this game, the scene is likely to fall on these three people again.

Link's speed, Jordan Jr. is naturally beyond the reach of the dust. But little Jordan is strong, and he keeps making small movements, so Link can't go full speed at all.

But since Jordan Jr. came to make up for himself, Gasol must have been missed!

Link then threw the ball back of his head, and sure enough, Gasol Jr. was one step behind the free throw line, waiting for the pass!

Barnes, who was chasing Link, reacted quickly and pounced directly at Gasol. It has to be said that Barnes is indeed a "mad dog". The "mad dog" here is completely praised.

Gasol had a shot, but it wasn't too consistent. Being disturbed by Barnes made it even more out of order.

Seeing that Gasol's shot was a little hasty, little Jordan was secretly happy. This time, it's down!

But when Jordan Jr. turned around and was about to collect the rebound, he found that Link was already solidly stuck in front of him!

The basketball slammed into the front of the basketball, and Gasol hit it angrily. But the ball that popped up, impartial, flew in the direction of Link and Jordan Jr.

Link's card position is very solid, although he is 8 centimeters shorter than Jordan Jr., but such an excellent card position is enough to erase the 8 centimeter height disadvantage.

Link saw the moment and jumped up to get the ball. Jordan Jr. jumped up, but because he didn't get to the best position, he struggled to collect the rebound.

Link is shorter than Jordan Jr., but he has a long arm span. In the air, Link didn't reach for the ball, but with a slight click, he pointed the bounced basketball to the basket again!

At that moment, the entire Clippers players froze like stone statues. Little Jordan knows that he has become the best background board today.

The basketball went into the net, and Link made a basket and scored his 30th point of the game. At the same time, in the last 52 seconds of the game, the difference was extended to 9 points!

The Clippers are gone, and the Grizzlies have touched this great record with one hand!

Paul crossed his waist and sighed silently. The Clippers resisted and fought back. But the result has not changed.

Just like at the beginning, they are still just a foil to the Grizzlies' record-breaking record today.

In the stands, the fans began to sing. Countless old Memphis fans shed tears, as a "weak" team, they have never had the joy of receiving honors.

But today, that dark history has turned a page.

"We're on top of the world, we're on top of the world, we're on top of the world!" The 18,000 spectators cheered as they witnessed the Grizzlies' glorious moments.

This kind of moment is not something that everyone is lucky enough to be able to participate in.

"Link took the Grizzlies to a whole new level with a rebound! We only need to hold on to those nine points in less than a minute to become the team with the most wins in the last 16 years! The Clippers shouted a timeout, and they still want to do the final struggle! But I'm sure the heroes of Memphis won't let these cheers go to waste! ”

The Clippers players sat down on the court, all expressionless. For them, it wasn't just a loss in a regular season game, but a huge shadow over the playoff prospects.

"Chris, do we still have a chance?" Griffin sat on the bench, a little unwilling. Seeing so many people cheering for the grizzly bear, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable in his heart.

Obviously, he was ready to lose before the game, but when it really came to the moment when he was going to lose, who would be willing?

Faced with such a "simple" question, Paul remained silent. After a long time, he slowly spoke, "There is still more than half a month left before the second round of the series. I think we'll have a chance. ”

Paul's answer was also an acknowledgment that they had no chance today.

Sure enough, after the timeout came back, the Grizzlies replaced them with a team led by Tony. Allen, Link, Iguodala, Griffin and Gasol led the all-defensive lineup.

The purpose is simple, stick to these 9 points!

Faced with a defensive lineup that had almost no weaknesses, the Clippers' counterattack struggled.

The cheers grew louder and louder, and Link felt his body tremble slightly.

Over time, the more you shake.

Is he really going to break the record? In the beginning, Link could only break various team records. But now, he's on his way to the league record!

68 wins, except for the incredible Bulls' 72 wins and the 69 wins created by West and Chamberlain in 72, 68 wins is the best record in the league!

Now, this record will be brought to the Federal Express Arena!

In a trance, Matt. Barnes receives Paul's pass and shoots from distance in the bottom right corner!

Link hurriedly raised his arm, he was now full of only one thing - to make history!

Barnes' shot swung around the basket and eventually slid out.

Randolph grabbed the rebound, but instead of passing the ball, he just held the basketball in his arms, unwilling to let go.

In the next second, the electronic beep sounded like a flare gun, causing everyone to gush out according to their long-standing excitement.

The game ended, 104-96. The Memphis Grizzlies beat the Clippers by 8 points at home, and this is also the 68th victory of the Grizzlies in the 12-13 season, the best record in the 21st century!

Confetti of color fell from the sky, and the fans just ran into the stadium. Randolph clung to his "ball of record" and was reluctant to let go. The others rushed up and hugged Randolph's "big ball".

And what about Link? He felt that his emotions were much calmer than he had imagined. The body that was trembling was unresponsive.

Looking at the Clippers players who walked into the tunnel dejectedly, Link suddenly felt that today was just the beginning.

Link looked up at the bare dome of the Federal Express Arena. This time, you'll be decorated beautifully!

In the midst of the crowd's revelry, Link pointed to the dome diagonally above. No one knows what he's thinking at this point, and this is the last image Link leaves for everyone today.
