Link scored 39 points, oh, it seems very common to Link.

Wait, he seemed to have just finished the game against the Bucks yesterday. Today he immediately scored 39 points in the back-to-back game against the Lakers, which is quite amazing.

What? You said that Link scored 39 points in the first half when he was fighting back to back!?

I'm not talking anymore, I'm going to watch the game now.

Many fans mostly reacted like this after learning that Link scored 39 points in the first half.

Everyone knows how intense that game was yesterday, and everyone knows how tired the Grizzlies are now.

So 39 points in the halftime is simply a fantasy!

And most importantly, the game has not yet been played, and the Los Angeles Lakers are only 5 points behind.

If the two sides are still anxious to confront each other in the second half, the score difference will still not be widened.

Link might be able to score another 39 points in the second half!

If you scored 40 points in the first and second half... Link's score might have to hit 80 points!

80 points per game.

Basketball fans all over the world know what this means. They are resisting and fighting while looking forward to a miracle.

At this time, in the Grizzlies' locker room, everyone could only hear each other's breathing sounds.

The Lakers' performance today is indeed very good, and they are closely following the score throughout the whole process. Although the Grizzlies suppressed the Lakers on the surface, in fact, the Grizzlies may have worked harder than the Lakers.

In the second half, the Lakers will definitely continue to put pressure on everyone. As long as they can't stand it, the Lakers will likely take away the game in one wave.

So, although the Grizzlies are in the lead now, in fact, the situation is even more difficult than people think.

Link scored 39 points in the first half, which made Joe Geer happy and worried.

You know, it is also quite tiring to keep shooting. Link is not only the highest score in the game, but his physical energy consumption is definitely the highest in the game.

The decline in physical fitness will inevitably affect the efficiency of shooting. It does not mean that if you reach a certain number of shots, you can get an ideal score.

Many people cannot take action so many times on the court, because if they make crazy moves, they may be exhausted before they get high scores.

McGrady once said that he had made 30 shots in a game, but it was not possible at that time.

If you want to ensure 20 points of output in each section, 30 shots are obviously not enough.

Jogel himself has no idea whether Link can hold on.

On the other hand, the Lakers also considered this. The key point emphasized by Lakers coach Frank Vogel in the locker room is to keep everyone confident.

"Don't worry, Link would never be able to continue this performance in the second half. In the first half, he had overdrawn his physical fitness. In the second half, we were in control of the game! We were only 5 points behind, and everything was not finalized! Hold on to the spirits and defeat the Grizzlies in one fell swoop in the second half!"

Vogel's speech was passionate, but James couldn't get excited.

Is it impossible for Link to continue this performance in the second half?

Well... at the end of the first quarter, James also thought Link could not perform so well in every quarter.

What's the result?

In any case, James no longer dares to be so lucky.

Indeed, conventionally speaking, a player who immediately needs to fight back to back just after the fierce game cannot have such strong endurance.

But Link is a guy who is out of the ordinary, and no one knows how much he can do.

Vogel didn't have as many concerns, he was still full of confidence.

In his opinion, no matter how strong Link is, he has his limit. He scored 39 points in the second half when his physical fitness was exhausted, which is Link's limit.

With Link pushing him into such a situation, the Lakers are still only 5 points behind.

Isn’t it imperative that the Lakers take over the game after Link was depressed in the second half?

Vogel firmly believes that the second half of the game will definitely belong to the Lakers!

I scored 40 points in the first and second half, how is this possible!

Not to mention 80 points in a single game, it would be difficult to pass 70 points in a single game.

In history, only Chamberlain, David Thompson, Elkin Baylor, David Robinson, Kobe and Booker have done it.

Michael Jordan's highest career score was only 69 points.

Considering that Chamberlain, David Thompson, Elgin Baylor played games from ancient times and did not have much reference value. Then, the 70 points that Robinson and Booker scored were eliminated.

With full play, the real meaning of NBA history is that it can continue to output in the anxious game, and does not deliberately score points and score 70+ points, Kobe is actually the only one!

There are so many players in NBA, only Kobe can score 70+ points in the true sense. What a small probability!

It's almost the same as winning the lottery.

So, can Vogel be unconfident?

He didn't believe that such a low-probability event would really happen to him!

Link's performance in the second half would definitely not be as good as in the first half!

After a brief rest, the second half of the "War of the Century" continued to be staged at Staples' center of gravity.

Although I experienced a breath of halftime break, the fatigue of the Grizzlies players was obviously not relieved.

So is Link, his body heavier than before. In his ten years of career, he has never felt that his body is so heavy.

Indeed, Link had experienced some very difficult games before, and had to grit his teeth and persevere after being exhausted.

But never once, it was as difficult as today.

As soon as Link appeared, everyone's eyes fell on him.

Everyone has a question: "Can Link score a score of nearly 40 in the second half?"

On the other end, Lakers coach Frank Vogel sat on the bench.

He looked confident, as if Link's 39 points in the half were completely worth mentioning.

"Coach Vogel's confidence is not groundless. It is really too difficult for Link to maintain the form of the first half. We all know that Kobe is the only one who can score 80 points in the history of modern basketball. Although Booker, Clay and others seem to have a great chance to break this record in recent years, their high scores are still different from Kobe."

On the commentary stage, Mike Brynn also began to give everyone a 80-point science. What is the difficulty? Where is Vogel's confidence?

"First of all, Klay Thompson scored 60 points in three quarters because he felt a lot, and most of them were easy shooting after assisting. In addition to his explosive touch, the Warriors' powerful system was also one of the reasons why Thompson scored high scores."

"In addition to his good touch, Devin Booker also made his wedding clothes for him that day. In fact, the Suns were in a state of being behind in a big score that day, so the Suns' mission that day was not to win, but to help Booker keep winning points with the strength of the whole team! So, although Booker scored 70 points, the Suns lost completely."

"But Link's situation is different from Clay and Booker. First of all, Link does not have a strong system or teammate support today. Most of his offenses are extremely difficult individual singles. Secondly, Link's feel is not particularly perverted today. He cannot continue to improve his score by relying on the accurate three-pointer of the gods. Moreover, Link only fought with the Bucks until the end yesterday. No one knows whether Link's physical fitness can still support him to explode."

Having said so much, Mike Bryn shook his head.

To sum up, it is: "It is impossible for Link to score another 40 points in the second half!"

Three words, impossible!

Although Mike Bryn is a fan of Link from the bottom of his heart, he still doesn't think Link can create miracles.

Moreover, according to the Grizzlies' physical condition today, there will be basically no second person other than Link to stand up in the second half.

The Grizzlies' defeat seems to be irreversible...

Link played a miraculous first half, but...

Mike Bryn felt sorry for Link. The 33-game winning streak seems to be a legend that is unattainable.

It is too difficult to get 80 points on a difficult individual single.

Link stood on the court, and he didn't know that in the hearts of most people, he had been sentenced to "death penalty".

Even Mike Brynn said the word "impossible".

Vogel was full of confidence and waited for Link to collapse himself. The Lakers were ready to fight for tooth.

What about Link? He didn't study so many data and examples.

In fact, if Link carefully studied the feasibility, he might lose confidence because it was really too difficult.

Fortunately, Link was not scared by the data and analysis, so there was no concept of impossible in his mind.

Psychologically, he has not surrendered yet.

The bottom line ball was sent and the second half began.
Chapter completed!
