Although Jeremy Lin was also a devout Christian, God was only a spiritual mentor to him, and he would not tolerate half a word like some religions.

Back on the court in the fourth quarter, the Suns strengthened their defense against Hoggist, firstly, because Kobe's physical strength declined, and his shooting speed and accuracy decreased significantly, which was easier to defend, and secondly, because Hougist, as a super offensive organizational core, was too terrible, he would pass to assist his teammates to score, and he could easily score points when he passed. So the Suns had to send someone to wrap up Haugist, and the Lakers played three quarters with 7 people, and their physical strength was problematic to varying degrees.

It's a pity that the Suns' dream didn't come true, and although Hougist was panting, he still put Bledsoe, Brandon. The two of Knight toyed with each other. Suns head coach Hornacek also knew that Haugist only needed two more three-pointers to break the record, so he tried his best to avoid this kind of record on his own team, so he gave the players a death order, the defense should be expanded beyond the three-point line, especially for Haugist, there must be no slackness, and the slap-sized shooting space cannot be left for him.

Feeling the increase in defensive intensity, Horgist also guessed Hornacek's intentions, so he passed the ball under the guise of shooting. Obviously, it is taboo to find someone to pass the ball after jumping, but he has to jump up first and pretend to shoot to shake the defenders, and then use his strong waist and abdomen strength to distribute the ball to his teammates who run out of the empty position to shoot easily, halfway through the fourth quarter, Hoggist really failed to shoot another three-pointer, but his assists have been rising, and the difference has been stretched to 11 points by the Lakers.

Angry and frustrated, Hornacek walked up to the tech desk and asked for a timeout. Gathering the players and rearranging the defensive strategy, it now seems that whether Hoggist can break the single-game three-point shooting record is not worth mentioning in the face of winning or losing, and how to quickly erase the point difference and re-press the balance of victory in his favor is the most important thing. And Shashewski on the Lakers' bench is making the final personnel adjustments, "The next 6 minutes and 01 seconds should be the decisive moment, the Suns will definitely speed up and further consume our physical strength, Turner, you come down and rest!" Dealing with the opponent's onslaught on the defensive end, and rushing into the interior from time to time on the offensive end, I know your physical strength has been emptied! Blake, I've been impressed with your motivation from the very beginning, this is the best time for you to show yourself, the rest of the time is up to you, Kobe, are you going to play now or take a few more minutes off? Jeremy, you should be able to top it again, right? ”

Although Jeremy Lin was too tired to speak, when he saw the ice packs that Kobe's legs were almost wrapped in, he still nodded stubbornly to indicate that he had no problem. At this time, Kobe Bryant looked very relaxed, and said while removing the ice pack: "I'm fine, besides, you look at the proud appearance of Hoggist, I'm afraid I'm going to be beaten by him if I don't play at this time, right?" You're going to get your head sold, am I right? ”

Hougist has been distracted since he returned to the bench, and he didn't listen to the arrangement of the old K coach, after all, he had already stated before the game that his physical strength was enough to play 48 minutes, and he didn't need to be considered when he was rotated.

"Huh? What do you ask? Oh! Yes, it's time for us to end the suspense, and it's time for me to break the record! Hougist replied.

"Be reasonable on the offensive end, but don't force your shot! It's easy to be caught and converted if you miss three points, and we'd rather rub the position slowly than let the opponent speed up, understand? Bryant reminded.

"Don't worry! Hornacek won't let anyone trap me anymore, and I'll have more chances for the rest of the time! Hoggist assured confidently.

"Why are you so sure?" Randle asked puzzled, although he was also a rookie, he felt that Hoggist's thinking was much quicker than him, and many questions he couldn't figure out could always be seen through at a glance.

Hoggist smiled, turned his head to look at Hornacek, who was serious about drawing tactics on the Suns' bench, and then turned back to lower his voice and asked, "If he doesn't plan to change his defensive strategy, why did he call a timeout?" ”

"Maybe he's going to make a change?" The naïve Randall replied.

"Substitution adjustment can wait for the dead ball! Why do you have to call a pause? Hougist wanted Randall to figure it out for himself, so he continued to side-knock.

"Maybe he's in a hurry to make a substitution and can't wait for the dead ball!" Randall guessed.

"What is there for him to be anxious about? Their wrap-and-clamp strategy is very successful, I haven't had a chance to shoot, and as long as he continues to use the trap-and-clamp strategy against me, there will definitely be leaks on the defensive end, and he can't make up for this drawback. So is it really necessary for him to waste a sho that pauses the taste of ice cream for a sho flavor? "Haugist's words could not be understood any more.

It's a pity that Randle still couldn't grasp the point, and continued to guess stupidly: "Maybe it's because the Suns have been falling behind, and he wants to give the players a little respite?" ”

Hougist asked helplessly: "Julie, guess how many candies I have in my pocket, and if you guess right, I'll give you all three!" ”

Randle looked dazed, "The jersey doesn't have a pocket!" Where is your sugar in it? ”

"Is it okay to have a coat in your pocket? Don't talk nonsense, guess how many pieces of candy do I have in my pocket? Hougist found that Randall's brain was indeed too straight to make a sharp turn at all, but it was not terrible, and if he couldn't answer this question, he might have serious IQ problems.

"Uh...... Uh......" Randall thought for a long time before he tentatively asked, "Three?" ”

The others around him let out a sigh of relief and burst out laughing. Blake patted Randall on the shoulder, "Sherlock Holmes! You have guessed such a suspenseful question, amazing! ”

"Is this question difficult? But didn't Hougist say that he leaked his mouth? He asked me how many pieces of candy I had in my pocket, and he said that if I guessed all three correctly, he must have three pieces of candy in his pocket! Randall smugly explained, and it seemed that he took Blake's words seriously.

"If you think so clearly, why did it take half a day to answer? Don't you see that everyone is sweating over your IQ? Hoogist scoffed.

"It's so easy to understand, I'm afraid there's a trap in your question......" Randall realized that everyone was laughing at him just now.

Hogist glanced at Randall and said, "This is easy to understand? Isn't the question of suspension more straightforward? I ask you, who is more physically exerted by us and our opponents? ”

"Of course it's because of our physical exertion!" Randall replied without thinking.

"So who do you think needs a more timeout between us and our opponents? Do you want me to be clearer? Hoggist felt that he was about to lose his patience, he studied early childhood education in college, and his patience was far beyond ordinary people, which shows how Jianghua Randall's thinking is.

"Of course we need it more...... Oh! I understand! Obviously, we need more precious time-out to recover our strength, so if the opposing coach doesn't have a 'major update' released, it is impossible for us to call a timeout for us to rest, if he really thinks this defensive strategy is feasible, then he will not call a timeout and just consume us on the field! Randle finally had an epiphany and instantly figured out why Hougist would be so sure that Hornacek would change his defensive strategy.

Hougist put his arm around Randle's shoulders and sighed, "It's rare that you finally figured it out, I thought you would say 'O, isn't Hornacek stupid to waste the Suns' timeout to give us a rest'!" ”

"Haoji, don't laugh at me, I know my brain is sometimes straighter, you have to dial me more!" Randall said aggrievedly.

Hougist massaged Randall's shoulder and said heroically: "For the sake of you providing so many jokes to everyone at this time, everyone's physical and mental fatigue has been eliminated a lot, if you can win today, I will remember you a lot!" How about ordering a few more king crabs for you when I go back to my seafood treat? ”

"Uh...... I eat seafood allergies ......"

Laughter erupted again from the Lakers' bench.

Hornacek's strategy has been seen through by Haugist, and there is no suspense in the game after the timeout. The Suns' guard line is too short, and it is a fool's dream to defend Haugist, so Hornacek sent T.J. Warren to limit Haugist. Others began to guard against the catch of other Lakers players.

But Hoggist directly switched back to ADC mode, and destroyed the blood cloth and Tyson in Yi Jianlian. After Chandler's empty catch, Horgist quickly received a long pass from Yi Jianlian and scored a three-pointer, tying the single-game three-point shooting record. Then the 13th, then the 14th, then the 15th, and that's how the door of record is, it is closed to you at first, making it difficult for you to break through, and once you manage to squeeze in, then the upward movement becomes very smooth again.

The final score was fixed at 120:101, the Lakers beat the Suns, Hougist tied the single-game three-point shooting record, and set a new record with a wave of devastating three-point shots faster than the Suns, and also completely blinded the Suns, and finally they didn't even know how to fight back, they could only keep sending missed shots and turnovers, and the fourth quarter should have been the most obvious time for the Suns' physical advantage, but the Lakers played a score of 40:26. Booker had a good estimate, and in the last two minutes he was replaced by Hornacek to play against Hoggist, which may be the most correct decision Hornacek made, because he had already led too much, and took care of his younger brother's face, Hougist did not abuse the Suns again, but chose to pass the ball to his teammates, and the shooting rate of his teammates naturally cannot be compared with Hougist, and the Suns avoided being slaughtered by a larger point difference.

The Lakers rained down on three-pointers throughout the game, making 84 attempts, including 60 three-point attempts, and hit 29 three-point attempts, breaking the Dallas Mavericks' record of 49 shots set by the Dallas Mavericks in their victory over the Nets on March 5, '96, and breaking the record of 23 three-pointers set by the Rockets in their 140-109 win over the Warriors on February 5, '13.

Hougist didn't shoot inside the three-point line in the fourth quarter, and finally he played 48 minutes, making 23 shots in the game, all of which were three-point shots, hitting 17 of them, especially in the fourth quarter when the Suns were preparing to fight back, he turned on ADC mode and took the game directly away with a 6-of-8 three-point touch. Hoggist scored 51 points, 19 assists and 9 rebounds with 50+ quasi-triple-doubles, although he refreshed the highest score, but it was indeed not as explosive as the data before the Timberwolves.

In this game, Kobe Bryant played 25 minutes and scored 30 points, which also broke the record for the least playing time of a player over 37 years old who played 29 minutes and scored 30 points.

After the game, Haugist put his arm around Kobe and said to the rest of his teammates: "When I was a kid, watching NBA live at home, it was a cold winter, but I saw this person - Kobe. Bean. Bryant scored 81 points against the Raptors alone! Oh, my God! That's 81 points! The Wizards played the Grizzlies that day, and the whole team scored 82 points! When I joked with a group of friends, I would always say, 'Kobe and I scored 81 points together', although it was a joke, but it ignited our love for basketball, but at that time, I would never have dreamed that I would really be able to stand on the NBA court one day and score 81 points with Kobe! The next game is going to play the Raptors again, my man, this is my high respect for you! ”

Kobe Bryant was moved by Haugist's sudden incitement, his eyes were a little red, and he suddenly smiled and said after holding back for a long time: "You snatched my single-game three-point shooting record, and I will accept this 81 points, and we are even!" ”

Hoggist knows that a tough person like Kobe Bryant doesn't want to easily expose the soft part of his heart in front of everyone, but they don't need words to express their emotions anymore, because everything is already in plain sight. Hoggist also responded with a smile: "Boss, many of your records will be taken away by me in the future, but I will also give you some scoring records related to your age, do you think this is fair?" ”

“Fair enough！” Bryant gripped Haugist's hands tightly.

Shashewski appeared at the side of the crowd at an inopportune time and shouted: "I'm sorry I have to interrupt your lingering, but the stadium is going to turn off the lights!" ”

This joke instantly relaxed the atmosphere of the whole team, and Shashefsky continued: "Guys, go take a shower and change clothes, we are going home, the plane will take off on time at 11 o'clock, and if you don't catch it, find a way to go back to Los Angeles by yourself!" ”
