Jordan: I thought he was there to help me!

Chapter 754 Breaking a New Record in the Twilight of His Career! 1st in NBA History

Less than four minutes into the third quarter, Lin Tian, ​​who had been coasting through the previous games, broke away from his previous performance and hit five consecutive shots over Gordon's head!

This guy may look like a defensive stalwart, but his defensive ability is really not worth mentioning. On the contrary, he is bad at the game but addicted to it. Lin Tian has scored 5 goals in a row, and he is still waving his hand to signal Lor Deng, who wanted to help, to move aside, because he wants to deal with Lin Tian himself!

It's confirmed! He's definitely a masochist.

Although he hasn't played many games this season, Lin Tian has played quite restrained in the remaining games, except for the first game where he really bullied Paul. He has had less playing time and fewer shot attempts, playing a very conservative style.

But tonight, he clearly put down his thermos and goji berries again.

Tonight, Lord Lin should give Gordon a good talking-to, make him realize the huge gap between dreams and fantasies!

Lin Tian faced Gordon again beyond the three-point line. With a probing step, Gordon quickly took a half-step back as if facing a formidable enemy. Then, Lin Tian pulled up and launched a long-range three-pointer, which flew straight into the basket.

Less than 10 seconds later, Lin Tian made a face-to-face steal against Gordon, followed by a behind-the-back dribble and a crossover dribble, which made Gordon, who was trying to catch up with Lin Tian to regain his pride, stumble and fall to the ground.

Finally, after Lin Tian drove to the frontcourt, he stopped abruptly outside the three-point line, pulled up for a three-pointer, and shot!

"Whoosh!"

After those two consecutive three-pointers, the gap between the two teams has reached 20 points!

Although Gordon managed to regain some ground, driving to the basket and contorting his body to sink a difficult, miraculous shot, it was clearly not enough to help the Bulls close the gap.

Because right after that, Lin Tian once again dribbled past Gordon with a series of crossovers, drove to the basket, faked out Ben Wallace, and then jumped up, scoring another 2+1 against his old friend!

"Ben, you'd better step up your game, otherwise your 3...4... never mind, who cares how many Defensive Player of the Year awards? They're worthless anyway!"

Lin Tian, ​​who had been on a killing spree, began his indiscriminate attacks!

Whether it's an old friend or a young fanboy in front of you, beat them to death!

When Lin Tian stepped to the free-throw line this time, the entire United Center erupted in a frenzy once again, with fans chanting "MVP" almost non-stop.

Like Lin Tian, ​​the fans noticed that the team and management were not prepared to give Lin Tian any respect.

Since you won't give it to us, we'll give it to us ourselves!

We will give Lin dignity and respect.

From this point onward, the fans' roars and shouts have almost never stopped.

They kept chanting Lin Tian's name, cheering for him, and shouting for his amazing performance time and time again!

At this moment, Lin Tian seemed to have returned to the two seasons of 95-97, and once again became the master of the United Center.

If it were just calling out Lin Tian's name, that would be fine.

Fans started booing the Bulls players.

I don't know when it started, but no matter if it was Gordon, Luol Deng or Ben Wallace, as soon as a Bulls player got the ball, the fans would boo incessantly. The fans transferred their anger towards the management onto the players, especially when Lin Tian broke free from Gordon and pulled up for a jump shot. Luol Deng, who rushed over to help defend, couldn't stop in time and knocked Lin Tian to the ground in mid-air.

Just a few dozen seconds after Lin Tian tried to lie down on the floor to check if he was injured, countless curses, profanities, and accusations flew towards Lor Deng!

Lorre Deng was completely stunned!

He even rubbed his eyes and glanced at the five championship banners and several retired jerseys on the ceiling to make sure he was indeed in the United Center.

Then even more frantic boos and curses rushed into his ears, making him even more confused.

This is Chicago. The fans here treated me like their kid during the first half, but right now, right now, they're booing me because I accidentally bumped into Lin Tian?

Lorre Dunn is not the only one with similar self-doubt.

"Ben! You'd be long gone from the NBA without Lin! You're only getting this big contract because of him! And you still dare to foul him?"

"You, Ben, are the dumbest idiot in this alliance! Nobody but yourself would ever compare you to Lin!"

"Go back to Argentina and dance the samba, Andres! You stupid idiot!"

"But Brazilians are the ones who dance the samba!"

"So I told him to go back to Argentina and dance the samba! This idiot needs to go back to his hometown and continue being treated like an idiot!"

"Jokin, you're as stupid as a pile of shit! Your two consecutive Florida championships have absolutely nothing to do with you!"

"Oden could beat you even with only one hand! He only has one arm, and he'd still be the number one draft pick!"

……

The trash talk from fans is overwhelming, perhaps because they understand their players better, making their insults even more vicious and effective.

That was like a sword piercing the heart!

The Bulls players' mentality began to crumble.

This kind of behavior—home fans turning against their own team, cheering wildly for the opposing team, and booing them—was truly unbelievable and intolerable to the young Bulls team.

They were truly stunned, not to mention the Bulls players, even Lin Tian was somewhat taken aback.

The effect is outstanding...

No, this damage is something you can only achieve after using a combination of exceptional effects, critical hits, and a ton of status-boosting pills.

That's way too exaggerated.

Lin Tianshen could see tears in the eyes of honest kids like Lor Deng.

This young man was so booed by his own fans that he cried!

"Am I being a little cruel?" During a drive, Gordon had already made 9 consecutive shots in the third quarter, making Gordon's eyes widen. Lin Tian, ​​who even forgot to tell his teammates to move aside so as not to affect his one-on-one plan, couldn't help but ask Anthony next to him.

"I think it's even crueler that they don't respect you, don't prepare any ceremonies or gifts for you," Anthony said without hesitation.

Just kidding. He's been working with Lin Tian for over three years. How could he not know what Lin Tian wants?

"Good buddy! I knew you could help me out! Let's be even more ruthless!" Lin Tian laughed, patted Anthony, and then suddenly accelerated again, rushing to the frontcourt in the blink of an eye. He then used two consecutive changes of direction and a feint to shake Gordon off his feet.

Then Lin Tian took a light step and pulled up, scoring another two points!

The 10th consecutive basket made in the third quarter, and the 14th consecutive basket made tonight!

By this point in the third quarter, Lin Tian had made all 14 of his field goal attempts, including 5 of his 3-point attempts and 9 of his free throws. With 4 minutes left in the third quarter, he had already scored a whopping 42 points!

His perfect 14-for-14 shooting performance tied the record set by "The Glove" Payton, making them the fourth-highest scorers in NBA history for a perfect 14-for-14 shooting game.

As for the top three, well, they are Chamberlain, Chamberlain, and Chamberlain!

Lin Tian clearly still has plenty of time tonight to try and break Wilt Chamberlain's NBA record of making all 18 shots in a single game!

Everything depends on Lin Tian's choice!

After all, everyone who knows Lin Tian knows that this guy doesn't care about data and doesn't like to inflate it.

Lin Tian is now facing two difficulties!

1. The gap between the two sides has reached 30 points, and he may call it quits at any time.

2. Lin Tian obviously doesn't care about this record, otherwise he would never have taken that difficult long-range two-pointer. Drawing a foul would have been a safer choice.

As for the Bulls' resistance?

Sorry, but nobody cares about that at all.

If you were capable of resistance, you would have resisted long ago. Why wait until now?

It all depends on Lin Tian himself!

With the game having progressed to this point, coupled with Lin Tian and the team's dissatisfaction with Reinsdorf and the entire Bulls management, Lin Tian certainly wouldn't just back down and let it go; they had to keep fighting to the death!

"Whoosh!"

Less than 30 seconds later, Lin Tian hit another mid-range jump shot, continuing to extend his streak of consecutive hits.

The Bulls' own resistance had almost completely disappeared by this point!

In particular, when Ben Wallace was grabbing a rebound, he lost control of his movement, pushed Stoudemire down, and picked up his fifth foul.

He had to go downstairs to rest early.

Without Ben Wallace, the Bulls' interior defense has plummeted, and their paint area has become a complete vacuum. No one can trouble Lin Tian's drives and attacks on the rim anymore!

At this moment, Lin Tian would certainly not miss such an opportunity, nor would he force a show of strength by choosing to attack with mid-range or long-range shots when the opponent's interior defense was weak.

It's okay to show off, but there has to be a limit.

Tonight's occasion is clearly not suitable for showing off.

If you accidentally overdo it, it will only benefit that stingy and petty guy, Reinsdorf!

"boom!"

"Whoosh!"

"boom!"

In the next three consecutive attacks, Lin Tian chose to drive to the basket, twice with powerful dunks and the other time he evaded the defense and scored a layup!

18-for-18! Lin Tian has already scored 50 points!

And there are 3 minutes left in the third quarter!

The large screen at the scene very tactfully displayed real-time data.

Lin Tian and Chamberlain are tied for the most in NBA history with a perfect 18-for-18 shooting record!

Meanwhile, Lin Tian scored 50 points, while Chamberlain only scored 42 points in the game where he made all 18 of his shots.

So strictly speaking, Lin Tian was slightly ahead of Chamberlain!

It's also worth mentioning that this perfect 18-for-18 shooting streak also broke another record.

The record for the most consecutive shots made by any player against the Bulls.

Previously, someone made 16 consecutive shots in the Eastern Conference Finals against the Bulls, leading his team to defeat the trio of Jordan, Pippen, and Rodman!

Yes, that person is still Lin Tian! In the 98 Eastern Conference Finals, Lin Tian had already made the Bulls suffer a painful defeat, completely dismantling the team. The only pity was that although Lin Tian made 16 consecutive shots in that game, he couldn't maintain a perfect score throughout the entire game.

What about tonight?

Anyway, this time, Lin Tian has improved his record in terms of quantity, and he has hit the jackpot 18 times in a row!

At this point, Lin Tian naturally no longer needed to give the Bulls any face, and he wouldn't ignore the opportunity to break historical records in this situation tonight, choosing to voluntarily leave the court.

However, by this point, Lin Tian had calmed down.

Because the Bulls started double-teaming!

He's subjected to relentless double-teams off the ball, and the moment he gets the ball, three players rush in to double-team him.

Clearly, the Bulls' head coach has given a firm order.

Hold Lin Tian down!

It's bad enough to tie the historical record, but if Lin Tian breaks the record, I'll be too ashamed to face anyone and will be laughed at forever!

We must hold onto this ball.

Lin Tian was quite relaxed, not in a hurry, there would be opportunities!

For the next two minutes and 50 seconds, Lin Tian did not make a move!

He remained incredibly calm in the face of the Bulls' relentless double-teaming, finding his teammates four times in a row. His teammates then made two shots, bringing Lin Tian's assist count to +2, and the point difference between the two sides exceeded 40 points!

From all perspectives, Lin Tian definitely won't play in the fourth quarter tonight.

His streak of consecutive hits will most likely end at 18!

Because the Bulls have possession of the ball right now!

What a pity, what a pity.

Heartbroken Bulls fans erupted in cheers and shouts as they rallied for Lin Tian, ​​hoping he could score another goal and give it his all!

If we can get a steal and fast break in the final possession, we can break Chamberlain's record!

The fans at the stadium are incredibly excited.

"Defense! Defense! Defense!"

The fans in the arena started chanting wildly for the Knicks, hoping they could make a steal.

Unfortunately, Lin Tian didn't seem to be in a hurry. He just stood there, showing no intention of pressing his opponent or calling on his teammates to do anything.

Ultimately, Master Lin still had a sense of shame.

Even if there's still a quarter left in the game, he wouldn't do something like that – go into double teams to rack up points.

How embarrassing!

However, although Lin Tian refused, there were people on the Bulls team who would do it for him!

With 5 seconds left in the third quarter, Gordon could have easily run down the clock to prevent Lin Tian from breaking his record by suddenly taking a shot.

Amidst the incredulous gazes of all his teammates, coaching staff, and others, he suddenly pulled up and shot from 1 meter beyond the three-point line!

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, the basketball missed its target and bounced off the rim.

Anthony grabbed the backboard, glanced at it, and then bounced the ball off the ground with one hand, yelling, "Go! Go Lin!"

Given the situation, Lin Tian certainly couldn't force himself to stand still and let the ball go to waste. He quickly accelerated, grabbed the basketball that Anthony passed to him, and then unleashed his full speed, instantly reaching the Bulls' basket.

"boom!"

After a loud bang, Lin Tian finished with a powerful 360-degree dunk, scoring his 52nd point of the night! It was also his 19th consecutive basket made tonight!

A brand new NBA first!

A brand new and highly valuable record!

Lin Tian shines once again in the arena!

Just after he made the dunk, the whistle blew to end the third quarter, and the two teams were about to enter the fourth quarter.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, most of the Knicks' starters should be resting by now.

It's worth mentioning that during the players' rest periods, during the break between the two quarters, Chicago fans even engaged in performance art.

They started the ritual to summon the spirits.

"Give us Klaus!"

"We want Klaus!"

"He's the best general manager!"

The fans at the scene began to summon the spirits of their former general manager, Klaus, whom they hated, loathed, and wished would die.

This performance art fully demonstrates their anger and dissatisfaction.

You bunch of people are not even as good as Klaus!

Only those who have worked and lived in Chicago know how damaging this statement is.

And it's foreseeable that if Rennesdorf sells the team and the new owner does something foolish, the fans will definitely chant, "Give us Rennesdorf!"

This is the highest level of insult, unique to Chicago.

As the fans' performance art ended, the fourth quarter began.

The Bulls have fielded all their starters, and the Knicks have also fielded most of their starters.

Except for Lin Tian!

Yes, Lin Tian has made his appearance once again!

Bulls head coach Skiles' eyes widened in disbelief.

Seriously, bro? You're really going to beat him to death?

Can't you leave them a way to survive? Don't be so ruthless!

The Bulls players, especially the backcourt players led by Ben Gordon, were completely numb by now.

Gordon's Stockholm syndrome and masochistic tendencies have clearly been completely cured, and now, sitting on the bench, he has absolutely no intention of going up to stop Lin Tian from scoring or breaking records.

As for the others? They just hope the head coach won't call their names and that they can hide like ostriches and not be discovered.

That way, at least I can tell others later: I wasn't guarding Lin in that game; the coach didn't let me match up against him. Otherwise, I definitely would have...

Ok……

I can definitely stop him from scoring at least one ball, and prevent him from making all of them!

The fans at the scene knew Lin Tian all too well. They already knew he wouldn't play in the fourth quarter, so they didn't have any expectations or illusions. But now that they saw Lin Tian continue to play, they immediately got excited!

Whoosh! Whoosh!

We love watching this! 58 points over those bastards!

Let them know the consequences of offending you!

Just as the fans' MVP chants reached their peak once again, with the entire stadium roaring in the wind, and the referee preparing to announce the start of the fourth quarter, Lin Tian suddenly chuckled and sat back down on the bench.

I'm not going anymore.

Hehe, those last 20 seconds were just the last gift that Mr. Lin gave to Chicago.

Consider it a return gift to the fans for the performance art they put on during the holiday break.

Even Master Lin has pulled off a performance art piece! (End of Chapter)
