739: Zhan Huang who doesn't want to be a supporting role

Link's state like a dynamite barrel kept the upset away from the Grizzlies. They have won eight in a row and are in formidable form. When Link told Popovich to shake his head instead of telling reporters a bad joke after the game, it dawned on him that a season even more legendary than '95-96 had been born.

"With their 71st win, the Memphis Grizzlies broke their own record of 70 wins last season and won the best single-season record in the NBA since the 21st century! At the same time, the Grizzlies also became the first team in NBA history to win 70 consecutive years! Of course, 71 wins also put the Grizzlies in the second-highest number of regular season wins in NBA history! And I'm sure they'll be number one before the end of the season! ”

Hubi. Brown looked at the new records and couldn't help but squeeze his arm hard.

It's not a dream, and the Memphis Grizzlies are literally on top of the world. The league record they broke this season could literally fill an entire A4 sheet of paper.

Unlike the Lakers, Knicks, or even the Bulls, the Grizzlies were a small-city team that didn't become part of the league until the late '90s. They don't have a glittering history, and they didn't even have a representative star before that. It seems that the Grizzlies don't have any successful "pedigree".

As a result, the Grizzlies' victories and accomplishments are iconoclastic. They spent four years explaining how a small city team survives in this league of the jungle.

In the stands, the fans hugged each other excitedly as if they were celebrating a holiday. This spring, the grizzlies bloomed fiercely in the league.

Whether they knew each other or not, people hugged each other excitedly. At this time, the fans in the stands are of all ages, genders and occupations, they are just a group of Grizzly Bears fans who can't help themselves.

The Grizzlies players, on the other hand, weren't as excited as the fans, just smiling and hugging each other.

Randolph touched Link's head, Gasol took Link tightly into his arms, and Iguodala slapped Link's buttocks hard. It looked as if the Grizzlies players had just won a modest victory.

71 wins, which is a great record indeed. With the exception of the Chicago Bulls, no team knows what it's like to have 71 wins.

But Grizzlies players are well aware that 71 wins aren't the end of the road. Now, it's not time to celebrate.

That year, the Bulls didn't finish until Game 82 with a historic 72-win streak. In the future, if history does not shift, the Warriors did not get 73 wins until Game 82.

And the Grizzlies have 5 games left after 71 wins! No team in NBA history has won 70 games so early!

In other words, the Grizzlies still have plenty of time to make history! They still have plenty of time to create 72 wins, or even surpass them!

Only then will the Grizzlies players be ecstatic like the fans!

After finishing the celebration with his teammates, Link volunteered to stay on the court. Soon, a reporter came up. The camera is focused on Link, not daring to make any mistakes. All reporters know very well that all the videos at this time may become important historical images in the history of basketball in the future!

"Another great performance, since you beat the Warriors by 40 points on March 28, you've played well in seven straight games, averaging 8.8 rebounds and 8.8 assists per game in seven games, and leading the team to 71 wins. What's your mood at this point, Link? ”

The reporter who interviewed Link seemed to be more excited than Link, and his voice trembled a little just by participating in history.

And Link, who made history with his own hands, looked relaxed, "It's a pity, I thought I could average a triple-double in these seven games." It seems that next time, we will have to work harder. ”

Watching Link blatantly pretend again, I don't know how many people cursed.

But just like Bird and Jordan back then, Link's words, although arrogant, are really irrefutable, which is the most annoying.

"You've been on such a hot streak lately, will you give it your all against the Miami Heat in the next game? As we all know, the playoffs are just around the corner, will you save your strength for the next game? After all, you still have a lot of chances to break the 72-win record, and there's no need to go toe-to-toe with the Heat, right? The reporter saw that Link didn't want to answer the question properly, so he skipped the praise part and went straight to the topic!

In their next game, the Grizzlies will face the Miami Heat at home for the last time in the regular season this season. The meeting of two opponents in last season's finals, combined with the hot topic of 72 wins, has made the next game long in the spotlight.

However, some believe that tomorrow the Grizzlies should choose to give up strategically. With the Grizzlies having five games left to break the 72-game break, and the playoffs are about to begin, they don't have to fight the Heat.

"Not necessary? Ha ha. Do you mean, someone would look at the 72-win record and not go for it? We don't have anything to keep, we're fit and we're in good shape. Our goal for the next game is to win 72! ”

Link stared at the camera with firm eyes, both of them were 72 wins, but if he could get 72 wins on the Heat, the gold content would definitely be greatly improved!

The Grizzlies' opponents in the last five games are the Heat, 76ers, Lakers, Suns and Mavericks. It can be said that except for the Heat, the other 4 teams are not opponents of the Grizzlies.

Even if the Grizzlies deliberately lost to the Heat, they could still easily get 72 wins against the remaining four teams.

But the real strong will not pick soft persimmons. The Miami Heat is the biggest stepping stone for the Grizzlies to reach the 72-win level.

These 72 wins are the most enjoyable only when they are won by the Heat!

After Link, he turned and left the court. Of course, it also shattered the last illusions of Miami fans.

In the next match, they won't win easily. They will face a defending champion who are hungry for victory and will not give up on it!

Wade, who was watching live TV at home, sighed, it seems that at this stage near the end of the regular season, a tough battle is inevitable.

※※※

LeBron. James would never have imagined that he would one day be at such a historic juncture as 72 wins.

It's just a pity that it's not him who is about to set a record of 72 wins, but his opponent.

After the Grizzlies-Spurs game, the media was overwhelmingly reporting Link's post-game remarks.

Link has already passed on his determination to win 72 against the Heat, and spread it to the world.

James shook his head, this was the first time he had been someone's backdrop before the game started.

This is probably the first time since 1996 that the playoffs are just around the corner, but people are still looking forward to a regular season game.

Supporting role, I don't know since when, James found himself actually a supporting role.

When he decided to bring his talent to the South Coast, it was a global sensation, and people said that the Big Three had to win at least five championships together. But what about now? People don't care about the Miami Heat at all, they only care about Link, they only care about the Grizzlies' 72-win record.

This situation may have started to form after last season's finals.

For the entire season, James has lived almost in Link's shadow. Top 50 superstars of the new season, All-Star vote king, MVP leader, and various historical records...... All of these accolades, which should have been the exclusive preserve of James, have been taken away by Link this season.

A few years ago, James thought the biggest opponent of his era was Durant. But now he finds that his opponent is tougher than Durant.

James shook his head, he was about to turn 30 years old, and he was a little unwilling. He hasn't really built his own era yet, and the Heat career hasn't been as smooth as he thought it would.

At the start of next season, James will be 30 years old. The former high school genius is also about to enter the year of establishment. James knew that time was running out for himself, and he didn't want to waste another season.

To be honest, whether Link can win 72 or not, James is indifferent. If Link breaks the regular-season record against other teams, James reckons he will congratulate publicly.

But want to do it all on the head of the Heat? That's another story.

Back then, Jordan also had a lot of supporting roles around him. Cal. Malone, Gary. Peyton, Patrick. Ewing...... These supporting characters are just as great, but they are not the kind of greatness James wants.

James would never allow that to happen, he didn't want to be a supporting character for Link again! Not just the next game, but the whole career does not allow yourself to be a supporting role! If the Heat meet the Grizzlies again in this year's Finals, he doesn't mind letting the Grizzlies have a legacy of regrets!

Half a month ago, the Heat knocked an exhausted Grizzlies to the ground. Half a month later, the grizzly bear made a comeback, and it became more ferocious.

But this time, the bear-hunting warriors are also armed to the teeth.

In the afternoon, James was interviewed by reporters before boarding a flight to Memphis.

"LeBron, will you conserve your energy for the playoffs in the next game and give the Grizzlies 72 wins?"

Faced with this question, James, who was originally grinning, became serious, "Conserve your strength? If we have to conserve our physical strength in the face of grizzly bears, then where should we use our physical strength? No, we will fight until the last second. Not to stop the Grizzlies from breaking the record, just to win. ”

The most devastating storm leading up to the finals is already approaching Tennessee.
