Chapter 144 A History-breaking 74 Points in a Single Game

To say that at the end of the third quarter, Lin Xing's scoring efficiency is indeed a bit low.

What is the level of 6 out of 2 three-pointers?The hit rate is only a little over [-]%, which is very tricky at first glance.

Lin Xing thinks it's okay, 6 of 2 three-pointers is equivalent to scoring 6 points in 6 rounds.

An average of 1 point per round, in the 90s when the score is always around 90 points, is basically equal to the league average.

But the admiral didn't think so. Seeing that the team was on defense, Lin Xing still couldn't be stopped.

He was in a hurry, and at the beginning of the fourth quarter, he taunted Lin Xing:

"Crazy three-point shots, are you scoring points? Be careful, don't score until the end and lose the game..."

Lin Xing knew what the general meant——

If the Warriors lose this match, no matter how high Lin Xing scores, it will be of no use.

Just like the game when Devin Booker scored 70 points, losing the high score in the game is not an honor, but a shame.

Lin Xing had a cold face. He didn't think he would lose this game.

Because of this game, what he wants first is victory, and second is the high score.

Wanting to win, for him who is in a hot state in this game, it is very simple.

As long as the Spurs stick to the defense in the second half of the third quarter, he will pass the ball.

No matter how bad the teammates are, the big open space should be in, right?
If the Spurs gave up their defense in the second half of the third quarter, Lin Xing's mid-range shot would be enough to kill the game.

Lin Xing ignored the general's trash talk, but in the fourth quarter, he still made some changes.

For example, on the first ball in the opening game, he controlled half of the court, and then casually threw the ball to the madman who hadn't played in the entire third quarter.

"Still stopped fighting? What does this mean?"

The Spurs' defense was stunned. They focused all their attention on Lin Xing, but Lin Xing stopped playing.

For a while, they really didn't know how to defend themselves.

On the front, Sean Elliott was still clinging to Lin Xing.

The overall defensive position of the Spurs is still close to Lin Xing.

As a result, the real strong side, the Spurs missed a clean slate.

Although Del Negro kept his eyes on the madman, he had no help.

So that Madman, the second fastest first step in the Warriors team, passed Negro.

After passing Negro, the madman rushed to the basket in one step, and made a throw before the admiral came up to interfere.

This is why Lin Xing suddenly turned off the ball, and the Spurs' defensive attention was on him.

At this time, teammates' offenses are all in simple mode.

Give the ball to your teammates while efficiently opening up the score and securing the victory.

On the other side, Lin Xing can take the opportunity to rest for a while.

For a scorer of Lin Xing's level, the biggest difficulty in scoring high points is not the opponent's defense, but his own physical fitness.

Although Lin Xing's stamina attribute was as high as 89 points, but in the third quarter, he almost did the whole quarter alone, no matter how good his physical fitness was, he couldn't stand it.

Old Nelson even wanted Lin Xing to rest for a few minutes before playing, but Lin Xing refused.

On the one hand, the score was too tight.

On the other hand, at the end of the three quarters, he also scored 52 points.

If you want to break 70 points, the fourth quarter must be full.

Xie still has to take a break, especially since the opponent's defensive focus is all on himself, so Lin Xing can only pull a wave first.

The first wave of pulling was very successful. In the first half, the madman who scored 13 of 2 scored 2 points.

Next, Lin Xing continued to pull.

The Madman also scored consecutively, scoring 6 points in a row for three consecutive rounds.

On the defensive end, Lin Xing, who was free, was not idle either. He successfully assisted in the defense, and also successfully interfered with Sean Elliott.

The Spurs defended for three rounds, and only made one of the 3 shots from the general's strong play at the basket.

On the court, another round of the Warriors, the Spurs' defense still did not change.

So, the Madman once again tore through the Spurs' defense.

Seeing that the madman was about to put on a solo performance of scoring 8 points in a row, at this moment, the Spurs' defense panicked.

The admiral stepped towards the madman, and Rodman followed closely behind.

At this time, Lin Xing suddenly started, throwing Sean Elliott away.

There is a huge space in front of him, and Elliott behind him is still chasing hard.

Lin Xing shouted: "I'm empty, I'm empty!"

The madman didn't pass the ball, but against many defenses, he forced one.

bang!The basketball hits the box and pops out.

The admiral turned around once and wanted to grab the board, but Lin Xing jumped high and surpassed everyone.

After grabbing the rebound, he took advantage of the trend and made a throw.

Swish-!
The ball was scored, Lin Xing made a tip-up and scored the 54th point of the game.

If Central Five broadcasted the game, director Zhang would definitely say: This ball can be dunked, why didn't Dalin dunk it?
Lin Xing spread his hands: Your family's physical strength is unlimited, right?

From this ball that could be dunked but was not dunked, it can be seen that Lin Xing is already consciously controlling his physical ability.

With 54 points in hand, more importantly, the Warriors' lead has been stretched to 8 points.

Bob Hill looked anxious and called the first timeout of the fourth quarter.

For the Spurs, the offensive and defensive start of the fourth quarter has made the situation very passive.

Bob Hill is already facing a dilemma.

Or, continue to pile up the defense on Lin Xing's side and press Lin Xing to death. The goal is to prevent Lin Xing from moving towards a higher single-game score.

Either continue to adjust the defense, maintain the overall suppression of the Warriors, and the goal is to win the game.

For Bob Hill, the more important thing is undoubtedly the victory of this game.

Although Bob Hill is very clear, if the defense is adjusted back, the Spurs will still lose with a high probability.

But what if?
Look at Lin Xing's 6-of-2 three-pointer at the end of the third quarter. What if Lin Xing's condition is not good in the fourth quarter?

So Bob Hill took a gamble.

The general objected on the spot, but the objection was invalid.

The timeout ends and the game restarts.

In a wave of offense by the Spurs, Del Negro pulled up and hit a three-pointer, successfully closing the score gap to 5 points.

Turn around, the Warriors attack.

Lin Xing saw Sean Elliott's single defense and also saw Rodman's normal position.

So, after resting for three or four offensive rounds, he did not rest this round.

Holding the ball against Sean Elliott is an unreasonable breakthrough.

Rodman still rushed over to help defend, but because of his remote position, when he rushed in front of Lin Xing, Lin Xing had already made an emergency stop and made a mid-range shot.

Swish-!
Although it has been a long time since he made a mid-range shot, Lin Xing's shot is still one word, accurate!

"Dennis Rodman's defense was a step slower, Star's mid-range shot hit, the 56th point of the game!"

On the sidelines, Bob Hill looked anxious.

The defense was turned back and it still couldn't prevent it, and there was air leakage on both sides. Look at this, is this game a lost game?

Although it looked like the game was lost, Bob Hill still didn't have the idea of ​​​​turning the defense back.

He just shouted: "Avery, help defend, help defend!"

Another wave of successful defense by the Spurs narrowed the gap to 5 points.

Another wave of the Warriors' offense, when Lin Xing was in control of the ball, he found that Avery Johnson's defense was on his side.

He immediately understood that the Spurs were going to use the little general's defense to withstand Lin Xing's singles.

but……

Can the little general's help defense withstand Lin Xing?Not only did Bob Hill think too much, but he didn't have much memory. He completely forgot how Lin Xing played the Spurs' perimeter defense in the first half of the third quarter.

Soon, Lin Xing demonstrated once.

With two cross steps patiently, he completely shook Sean Elliott away, and rushed in with one step.

Although the little general assisted in the defense in time, the two were really not at the same level in terms of confrontation.

In order to completely get rid of Sean Elliott, Lin Xing stretched the battle line. Step by step, he entered the penalty area, and by the way, completely crushed the little general.

Rushing into the penalty area, the last line of defense for the Spurs, the general raised his hand.

Lin Xing didn't avoid him either, he didn't pull the lever for a layup, but just made a strong layup.

Snapped!
The general jumped up high, and slapped the basketball in Lin Xing's hand.

But at the same time, with a beep, the referee blew his whistle.

"Foul, David Robinson hit Star on the arm, Star was going to the free throw line."

Under the basket, Lin Xing shrugged.

The admiral was a little angry. He spread his hands, not complaining, but complaining about his teammates' defense.

"Can you keep up with your people, Sean?"

"And you, Avery, get stuck in his place, OK?"

Lin Xing shook his head, he knew that the admiral's mentality had collapsed.

Standing on the free throw line, Lin Xing made two free throws steadily. Before halfway through the fourth quarter, he had already scored 58 points.

The Warriors lead by 7 points and still firmly hold the victory of the game.

The Spurs' offense, the admiral also made a ruthless attack, hitting Luke Longley inside.

After scoring 2 points, they narrowed the gap to 5 points.

Turning around, the Warriors attacked, Lin Xing made a false shot, and made another double retreat.

Swish-!
The crisp sound of wiping the net sounded, and the admiral became even more anxious.

"Stick him to death, stick him to death, what are you guarding against, can you stick him to death?"

In the commentary seat, Matt Gudica was very excited: "The double-retreat three-pointer hit, 61 points, 61 points for Starbucks!"

At the moment of the three-pointer, Bob Hill was another timeout.

After the timeout, the Spurs made a wave of offense, and the admiral Jagged missed a shot.

Then it was their defensive round, and Lin Xing could see that Rodman's position was leaning over again.

"The Spurs' defense is crazy..."

Lin Xing took a glance and probably knew what was going on.

But at this moment, the situation of leading by 8 points and still holding the ball gives him the capital to spend.

So without even thinking about it, he scored a three-pointer directly from the outside line.

Bang!

Although the iron was struck, Lin Xing felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

He waved his hands on the spot and shouted: "Come again!"

In the next round, relying on the general's goal, the Spurs approached the score to 6 points.

Turning around, Lin Xing scored another three-pointer.

The double retreat failed to open up too much distance, and Sean Elliott still gave some interference.

but……

Swish-!
The crisp sound of scraping the net was like a life-threatening talisman, constantly threatening the admiral's life.

He has been spreading his hands, but the fact is that Lin Xing has already scored the 64th point of this game by relying on this three-pointer.

And, the Warriors got another 9-point advantage.

With a wave of successful defense, after the offensive and defensive transition, when Lin Xing was in control of the ball, he could still play with a 9-point advantage.

Without even thinking about it, it was a three-pointer on the spot.

Sean Elliott rushed forward, but Lin Xing received the ball.

"Fake vote, it's a fake vote!"

In the commentary seat, Marv Albert exclaimed.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Xing tapped the floor, took two steps in, and raised his hand to make a mid-range shot without interference.

Swish-!
"In again, in again!"

"Sida made a fake shot and missed Sean Elliott, and then made a mid-range shot with an emergency stop and made a successful hit!"

"With the 66th point of the game, Stalin is approaching David Robinson's single-game scoring record of 73 points..."

The general spread his hands again, complaining about his teammates' defense.

As everyone knows, Sean Elliot's mentality has collapsed a bit.

And the admiral's repeated complaints accelerated Elliott's mental breakdown.

then……

"Fk, David, if you think it's easy to defend against the death of Stadt, then step on your horse and defend yourself!"

The general spread his hands: "If I stepped on an outside line, I would definitely go up by myself."

"Then shut your noisy mouth..."

"Why should I shut up when I'm on the horse? It's obviously your defense, Avery's defense, and Dennis's help defense, all of which are as fragile as paper."

"Fk, David Robinson, shut up!"

The admiral suddenly expanded his attack area, and Rodman didn't follow suit, and immediately joined the battle.

The Spurs had a fierce quarrel, and Lin Xing stood beside him, watching the excitement, and clapping his hands.

Bob Hill saw that it was not good, so he quickly called a timeout.

On the one hand, it quelled the disputes within the team, on the other hand, he was also hesitating whether to give up the game directly.

But looking at the game time, there are still more than five minutes.

It is too early to give up at this time.

It is impossible to give up. What Bob Hill can do is to use this timeout to sprinkle a wave of dry chicken soup, and then send the main players back to the field.

but……

After some quarreling, the Spurs were already in disarray.

Although the admiral was under pressure, he brought the score gap back to single digits.

But when he turned around, Lin Xing made a breakthrough and didn't touch the defense.

He made a direct mid-range shot with a swish!
"68 points, Star scored the 68th point of the game, the Warriors still lead the Spurs by 11 points."

"This game, the record-breaking high score, and the victory of the game, all will be in the pocket of Stalin!"

Then, still general, he was still struggling.

An iron-blooded mid-range shot crashed out of the frame with a bang.

Lin Xing rushed to the basket, jumped high, and grabbed the rebound.

Then, he rushed to the frontcourt and chased a three-pointer directly.

Swish-!
The moment when the crisp sound of wiping the net sounded, it was the moment when Lin Xing made history.

"Following three-pointer, the 71st point of the game!"

"Sta made history, he became another player in this league who scored 70+ points in a single game!"

But, all of this is not over yet...

The Spurs' offense, the admiral has already done badly.

He made a free shot from the middle distance and missed the basket with a bang.

Lin Xing grabbed the rebound again and made another counterattack.

In the frontcourt, chase another three-pointer.

Swish-!
"74 points, the 74th point of the half game, Stahl surpassed General David Robinson, this is a historic moment!"

The admiral's face was ashen, the battle of shame has become a reality.

The Spurs called the last timeout, and Bob Hill made up his mind at this time——

No matter how long the game is left, just give up.

He didn't want to make this shameful battle even more shameful.

As a result, the Spurs replaced the main force.

For the Warriors, Lin Xing was straightforward. He watched the Spurs go all out without even thinking about it. A foul won the ball and he left the field.

"do not fight!"

On the one hand, 74 points is enough.

On the other hand, he didn't want to leave the admiral saying "Lin Xing also scored points".
