The All-Star Game had just ended, and the fans were bombarded with Link's scalp.

Madison Square Garden was bloodied, which wasn't meant to surprise fans. After all, the Knicks have to be bloodied a few times a season.

But Link's bloodbath last night was too "thorough".

The first player to score a 50+ triple-double at Madison Square Garden and the first player to score a 50+ triple-double twice in a single season.

Link broke two historical records in one go, which made people sigh.

The last player who could show this kind of performance in the fourth grade was Larry. Bird. And what about after Bird? No more, even LeBron. James wasn't so explosive either.

Obviously, the heat of the slam dunk contest has not yet dissipated, and Link has pushed himself into another craze.

At the beginning of the season, when ESPN selected Link as the top 50 superstars of the new season, Link was met with a lot of skepticism.

But now, when ESPN puts Link at the top of the MVP rankings, few people dispute it.

Judging by Link's current performance, he does deserve such an honor. Even if the MVP trophy is directly awarded to him now, it is estimated that few people have an opinion.

You know, in the case of explosive individual performance, the Grizzlies have won 49 wins so far this season!

One more game, and the Grizzlies will claim their 50th win of the season.

50 wins, which means that even in the competitive West, it is enough to make the playoffs. As long as the Grizzlies win their next game again, even if they don't win a game for the next two months, they will still have a playoff spot.

Having a playoff spot early at the end of the All-Star break has never happened before.

But it is this incredible thing that highlights Link's greatness.

In the final two months of the regular season, everyone wants to see what kind of miracle Link can perform.

72 wins? Beyond 72 wins? Setting another record that is almost impossible to break?

Everyone is looking forward to it!

With one exception, he's been waiting for the final regular season game with Link since the All-Star break!

He was more than willing to play the role of that stumbling block on Link's soaring path.

On February 20, 2012, the first All-American live game after the All-Star break officially kicked off in Oklahoma City.

Heat vs Thunder, although the two sides played the Finals last season. But to this day, the two teams are still considered imaginary rivals in the Finals.

Unlike last season's 66-win spurt, this season, the Miami Heat's offense has been much gentler.

So far in the regular season, the Heat's record is only 38-14. While the Grizzlies are on the verge of their 50th win of the season, the Heat are two games away from their 40th win.

However, everyone can see that the Heat and James are holding back their strength in the regular season and do not use their full strength. They don't want to unleash that momentum early, they want to put all their power into the playoffs.

So, even if the record isn't as scary, the Heat are still considered one of the strongest teams in the league.

When two strong teams collide, they can naturally get the treatment of the national live broadcast level.

Today, James gathered in the locker room before the game to make a brief speech. He wants everyone to give their all in this game and play this game as if it were a playoff game.

This season, the league's trend of "strong in the west and weak in the east" is still very obvious, except for the Heat and the Pacers in the top eight in the East, the strength of other teams is almost out of gear compared with the top eight in the West.

As a result, the Heat don't have many opportunities to get experience in the East. Most of the opponents they faced were fairly average.

It's rare to come up against a team with quality right now, and James certainly hopes that the team can go all out and see what the Heat can do.

James thought that as long as the Heat played with all their strength, they could easily take out the Thunder as they did two years ago.

But today's game scared James into a cold sweat!

Kevin. Durant dribbled to the outside of the three-point line and shot directly! LeBron didn't expect Kevin's shot to be so decisive, his blocking was half a beat slower, and this little space was completely enough for Durant! Three-point shot, Kevin. Durant continues to score, and the Thunder have widened the gap to double digits! ”

Inside the Chesapeake Energy Arena, fans cheered and commentators cheered for Durant's great performance.

James covered his head in annoyance because it was already Kevin. Durant scored his 28th point on top of his head!

Durant's excellent form has clearly made James unprepared.

From the very beginning of the game today, Durant did not give James a chance to breathe.

The No. 35 seemed to be quite angry, eager to sweep away all the opponents who stood in his way.

James looked at the big screen after being *** and gritted his teeth. He knew that he was more than lucky today.

In the last five minutes of the game, Durant did not relax his offense. Defensively, he risked James and made the Heat miss out on key offense. On the offensive end, Durant scored wantonly with superb projection, so that James could only shake his head and sigh again and again.

Three minutes later, Spoelstra lost ground and replaced all three of them. He couldn't believe his team would be thrown into garbage time!

"Unstoppable Kevin. Durant, 36 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists! Kevin beat LeBron this time, and his performance will definitely make the Miami Heat nervous! If the Heat meet the Thunder in the Finals in such a state, they're finished! ”

The commentator yelled at the end of the game and looked at the score again to make sure he wasn't dazzled.

81-103, the away team in front, the home team in the back. The Thunder beat the Heat by as many as 22 points at home! It's not a dream, that's what has happened in the last 48 minutes!

It's not just the huge gap between the Heat and the Thunder, but also the individual performances of Durant and James today.

Durant's 36 points, 7 rebounds and 5 assists are unbeatable, while James's 26 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists are obviously too inferior.

Outside the three-point line, James shot 1 of 6 today. As far as this game is concerned, James was completely destroyed by Durant!

After the battle with the Heat, Durant was out of control. He knew very well in his heart that he could not be complacent yet, and this was just the beginning!

On February 23, the Thunder VS Clippers, another strong matchup.

The game Clippers sixth man Jamal. Crawford put in a heroic performance, scoring a team-high 36 points on 13-of-20 shooting from the field.

That's right, 36 points is just the highest score for the Clippers. Because today's highest score in the game is Kevin, who scored 42 points. Durant!

Durant continued his excellent performance against the Heat in the last game. The wheels defense of Barnes and Dudley didn't play any role for Durant.

Under the leadership of Durant, the Thunder scored 125 points in the fourth quarter and won the game.

Three days later, on February 26, All-Star MVP Kelly. Irving came to Oklahoma confidently ready to challenge Durant.

However, in the face of the Cleveland Cavaliers, a team on the fringes of the playoffs, Durant still did not relent.

37 points, 10 rebounds and 9 assists, shooting 62.5% from the field! Durant used an efficient quasi-triple-double to destroy Irving's vulnerable team entirely.

So far, the Thunder have won three in a row after the All-Star break. And in all three games, Durant performed well.

After the game against the Cavaliers, Durant finally couldn't wait to say what he wanted to tell the world a long time ago, "I want to fight Link right now, I can't wait." The next game will be our last meeting in the regular season and I promise I'll keep it in his mind. ”

In an instant, everyone suddenly realized.

It turned out that in the first three games, Durant fought so hard, all in preparation for the fourth meeting with Link.

No one knows what kind of sparks will be sparked between the two sides when Durant meets the Grizzlies again in the next game.

"It seems that Kevin is now in a state of extreme anger. Maybe Kevin has been in a bad mood since he was last killed by Link. He's gone on a complete rampage, he's taken out James, Paul and Irving one after another, and none of them can even slow Durant. The only person who can stop him at the moment is Link. So, what about the Linkers? ”

After the interview, David. Aldridge ended the live stream of the Thunder-Cavaliers game with a meaningful question.

What about the Linkers?

Memphis at ten p.m., Federal Express Arena.

Link walked into the shower panting, sweating profusely.

"Link, let's go, I don't want to be scolded." In the locker room, Billy Sr., the security guard who locked the door to the training hall today, was urging Link to leave.

Dave. In order to prevent the players from overtraining, Jogel asked to lock the door of the training hall at 8 p.m. every night. In other words, even if the players have to practice, it will be until 8 o'clock at most.

But today, Link won't leave even if he talks about it. Old Billy had no choice but to stay with Link and watch him train.

In fact, since last season, Link has rarely stayed in the training gym so late. After all, for an athlete of his calibre, sometimes rest is more important than training.

But today Link is particularly unusual and doesn't seem to want to be bothered by anyone, anything.

Finally, at ten o'clock, Link suddenly stopped what he was doing and walked into the locker room.

"Don't worry, Billy, I'll go back right away. I'm sorry for you today, hehe, I'll give you five tickets tomorrow, which is considered compensation for you. Link smiled apologetically as he showered.

"Five tickets? You know, because of your stellar record, tickets to the Grizzlies aren't cheaper now, not as good as they were back then. The price of five games at the Federal Express Arena two years ago is now only enough for one. How? You're not going to trade five valuable tickets for five nights of overtraining, are you? I'm not going to let you do that again, Link. Old Billy was taken aback, he couldn't afford anything wrong with Link.

"Don't worry, I don't need to overtrain for five nights, I won't do it again, and even if someone asks me to train so late, I won't do that."

"Then why did you have to train until this time today?" The more Billy thought about it, the stranger it became.

"Well......" Link smiled, "Tonight is a little special, Billy." ”

Link certainly wouldn't tell Billy Sr. that the reason he had to train so late today was because of the hint that only he could see.

"00-01 season Grant. Ciel's abilities stack. ”
