307: I really didn't expect ......
The history of the NBA has been marked by many shameful games with a wide margin of points, and these games are not "painlessly" trailing by 10 points or 20 points, but the number of points is unbelievably large.
On December 18, 1991, the Cavaliers beat the Heat by 68 points 148-80, setting a single-game record in NBA history. In this game, the Cavaliers scored 75 points in the second half, while the Heat only scored 27 points. This shameful record has been maintained to this day.
And this big margin of play took place in 1998, when the game was led by Reggie Brown. Miller's Pacers outscored the Trail Blazers by 65 points, 124-59 at home, the first time in NBA history that the margin was higher than the points of the losing team.
At the turn of the millennium, the most famous game with a huge point margin took place in 2009. In the fourth game of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs in 09, as soon as this game was mentioned, a 183 man who did not want to be named would shed tears.
In the fourth game of the first round of the 2009 Western Conference playoffs, the Nuggets played against the Hornets, and the two seemingly evenly matched teams played a one-sided game, and the Nuggets beat Chris 121-63. Paul's Hornets also set an NBA playoff record with a 58-point difference.
After this game, the league has since added a superstar guard codenamed "58".
While there are many examples of such exaggerated losses in the league, this kind of crazy thing is not often seen. Especially in the 21st century, as the three-point shot is gradually mainstreamed, every team's scoring ability is getting stronger. Even if the defense can't defend it, most teams can control the margin by scoring.
That's why most of these big games happened in the last century.
But today, Hubi. Brown was so excited that he didn't even dare to blink his eyes. Because today, in Memphis, at the Federal Express Arena. A new record for the largest point difference may be on the horizon!
John. Wall stood on the court, sweating profusely. Before the game began, he was thinking about how to defeat Link and the Grizzlies. But at this point, Wall didn't think about winning at all, he just wanted not to lose the league record.
Because at this point, the Grizzlies are already 38 points ahead of the Wizards! And it's possible that the difference will continue to widen!
The only thing Wall wants to do now is to stop the point difference from widening!
Since trailing by 20 points in the first quarter, the Wizards have collapsed entirely. The Wizards themselves are not a team that can play hard, and the desire to win is not as strong.
Except for Wall, everyone gave up resistance early, thinking that this game would be lost so uneventfully.
As everyone knows, the grizzlies are unrelenting and continue to play rigorously. Then the situation became what it is now.
By the time the Wizards players find out that they're not just going to lose, it's too late.
Wall thought about it, and the Grizzlies were already on the attack. The 10-year-old couldn't help but lick his dry lips, and now whenever he sees a Grizzlies player attacking, Wall is nervous. Throughout the game, their defense was destroyed. Whether he can prevent it now, whether he can keep the last bit of face, Wall has no bottom in his heart.
Conley hit the ball to Link, who was out of space, and the moment Link caught the basketball, Nick. Yang also pressed up. Nick. Yang just doesn't want to defend now, but he has to defend. Because it's no longer about winning or losing, it's about face!
With the ball in hand, Link looked serious and didn't relax because he was already 38 points ahead. After all, Link's plan from the beginning was to create a big win, and the more exaggerated the point difference, the better. So Link wasn't going to rest on his laurels right now.
Moreover, there is not much time left for Link. If he is not serious, he will not have a chance.
At this point, the game had reached the last two minutes of the third quarter. These two minutes will be Link's last performance time.
After all, entering the fourth quarter with such a large margin of points, if the Grizzlies are still in the main force, it is disrespectful to the opponent. Therefore, the Grizzlies' starting five in the fourth quarter will definitely not play, and the third quarter is Link's last chance to pull away as much as possible.
Face Nick. Yang, Link made a few tentative steps. Yang Shaoxia was a little overly nervous, and every time Link made a tentative step, his center of gravity would move with him.
Seeing this, Link suddenly took a step forward! Sure enough, Nick. Yang immediately retreated!
However, Link Advance is false to see Nick. Young stepped back, Link retracted his steps and pulled out a jumper directly from beyond the three-point line! With just one tentative step, Link put Nick Nick. Yang was dazed.
The Wizards players are too tight right now, too tight. In this way, it is actually more detrimental to defense.
Nick. Yang watched as the basketball flew over his head and then crashed into the net as usual. Link made three fingers and it was his 23rd point of the game! You know, the third quarter of the game is not over yet!
After Link's goal, the difference also became 41 points, which is the largest score difference record that has been played so far this season!
"Link is still scoring and the Grizzlies were really ruthless today! Undoubtedly, this is their response to the media! What is affected, and what everyone is at risk. Like Link said, these words are fart! ”
Hubi. Brown applauded vigorously, in today's environment, the Grizzlies can get such a big victory, which is indeed impressive.
On the other side, Wall wanted to help his teammates score by breaking through the ball. But this time, Wall was just about to pass the ball when Link reached out to block the passing route.
The Grizzlies completely ate Wall's pass today!
Wall then picked up his seventh turnover of the game...... And his assists are only 4. This assist-to-turnover ratio is simply a rollover scene.
Wall's restriction is a big reason why the Grizzlies are able to slaughter the Wizards today.
Link himself controlled the ball and advanced it, weaving unhurriedly through the crowd. Nick. Young kept up with Link, and the others were keeping their eyes on their counterparts. Normally, Link would choose to pass the ball in such counter-attacks.
However, this time, when the slow Link ran near the three-point line, he suddenly changed hands!
"Whoosh!" Nick. Yang only felt a gust of wind blow past his ears, and then Link "disappeared".
During this period, Hill can occasionally put on a one-step performance. Then the same can be done with Link.
Nick. Yang simply didn't chase after being broken through this time. He confessed that no matter what he did today, it would be in vain!
Link was not polite and smashed a shot over the head of the Brazilian centre-forward after entering the box. The third quarter scored 25 points, and the margin became 43 points!
After Link's goal, the Wizards called out the game again. It seems that Whitman is going to be the first to send an all-bench lineup. In this game, it doesn't make any sense to leave the starters on the field again.
The cameras were all focused on the Wizards, and it would be a great honor if they were to be so high-profile in normal times. But today, none of the Wizards wanted to face the camera.
Link sat back on the bench and took the Gatorade from the staff. His first feeling was not pride, but relief. As the core of the offense, he delivered a perfect answer sheet to help the Grizzlies stabilize the morale of the army during turbulent times.
And then by the way, as a failed draft, defeated the 10-year champion John. Wall. I believe that after this game, no matter how angry Wall is, he is embarrassed to spray.
"The horrific slaughter, the Grizzlies showed the world the gap between them and the Washington Wizards. The second in the west and the second to last in the east are indeed not at the same level, and the grizzlies are completely dimensionality reduction blows! I think after this game, all the media reporters who make a living by hyping up rumors should be unemployed! ”
For the rest of the game, the two substitutes began to peck at each other. But on the Grizzlies' side, the bench players are clearly more aggressive. In the last 23 seconds of the fourth quarter, when Jimmy. After Butler scored on a mid-range jumper, the court was in a state of flux.
At this point, the score is fixed at 119-69, and if the 50-point margin can be maintained until the end, then it will be the tenth largest game in NBA history!
At this point, even Link was surprised. In the beginning, he just wanted a big win. As everyone knows, I inadvertently made an alliance record......
In the final 23 seconds, the Wizards players didn't play at all. As soon as they put the ball on the ground, they walked straight back to the locker room one by one. The referee may also think that the Wizards players were miserable today, so they didn't find fault and let them go.
In this way, the 50-point difference remained until the end. This is the 10th largest point margin in the league after the Cavaliers lost by 54 points to the 76ers in 1970!
In the whole game, the Wizards shot 26 of 96 and 3 of 23 from three-point range, shooting 27.1% overall. Wall's 13 points were already the highest on the team. The Wizards played 11 players today, and only two scored in double figures...... This data will be written into the history of shame of the Wizards.
On the other hand, the Grizzlies shot 51.2% from the field, and five players scored in double figures. Link had 25 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, beating Wall, who had 13 points and 7 turnovers, and became the best player of the game.
In the post-match interview, Link shook his head vigorously, "I didn't expect, I really didn't expect this to happen, it's crazy, I've never experienced a game like this." ”
On the surface, Link's answer seemed to save face for the Wizards, indicating that it was all just an accident. As everyone knows, Link added another sentence later.
"At first, I thought we could only win by 30 points, but I didn't expect to win by 50 points."
I thought I could win by 30 points...... The reporters swallowed, is this what a team that everyone is in danger can say!? It's so inhuman!
After this game, almost all the media and reporters threw all the news that the Grizzlies were in bad shape because of the rumors in the trash.
