Chapter 232 Unprecedented

No one probably expected this situation before the game.

Tang Tian had broken Kobe's 81-point record at the Staples Center against the Lakers before.

Now that he's back at the New Orleans Arena to face the Lakers, he has another chance to break his own record of 82 points!

The Lakers: What did we ever do to deserve this!

Tang Tian retreated on defense and even ran over to Anthony to give him a high-five.

Anthony didn't know what was going on, he just instinctively reached out to respond.

It wasn't until the next second when he saw the data on the LED screen that he realized what was happening, and he couldn't help but shake his head with a smile.

Tang Tian, as his teammate, broke his record right in front of him.

The crowd erupted in cheers and whistles.

This high-five was a record passed on, this scene was an NBA classic.

And this scene reminded people even more of what was happening before their eyes.

Not only before the game, but even after three quarters, fans couldn't have imagined this happening.

Because Tang Tian had "only" scored 44 points in the first three quarters!

But he had already scored 36 points in the fourth quarter!

With 50 seconds left in the game, Tang Tian really had a good chance.

The pressure was now on the Lakers.

They were likely to become the backdrop once again, and they were still down by 3 points.

Vogel didn't call a timeout.

The Pelicans' offense had been relentless in the fourth quarter, forcing him to call timeouts one after another. Now the Lakers only had one timeout left, and he wanted to save it for the final moment.

"Defense! Defense!"

The cheers from the crowd were deafening.

Amidst the cheers, and with the added bonus of the elementary school students' carnival, the Pelicans' defense was impenetrable.

The Lakers launched several attacks, all of which were unsuccessful.

With the 24-second clock winding down, James made a contested three-pointer over Green, but it missed!

The Lakers watched their chances of winning slip away.

At the crucial moment, Brook Lopez showed his value. He prepared to judge the landing point of the ball, and then patted it out.

The ball returned to James' hands!

James shot another three-pointer.

"Swish!"

A crisp sound.

James' second three-pointer went in!

With 30 seconds left, the Lakers tied the score!

Stevens reached out and called a timeout.

The fans in the arena couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This game was too epic!

With so little time left in the game, the Pelicans had to score on the next possession if they wanted to win.

"AD, you'll take the last shot."

Stevens was really playing mind games.

Tang Tian had 80 points, just one step away from breaking the record, and he was on fire, so everyone thought he would take the last shot.

But Stevens went the other way.

When the timeout ended, Tang Tian held the ball on the outside to run down the clock.

The Lakers' defense extended very far out.

Stevens had bet right.

With about 15 seconds left in the game, Tang Tian dribbled and broke through, and the Lakers immediately pounced.

Tang Tian saw the opportunity and made a straight pass to Davis.

Davis caught the ball, took one step, and was about to dunk.

However, Lopez once again made a contribution at this time, retreating to the basket in advance, and Davis' dunk was blocked.

Fortunately, Davis had good physical qualities and immediately changed his dunk to a bank shot.

"Bang!"

Davis' shot was well-placed, but after the ball rebounded, it hit the rim!

Stevens' tactical arrangement was fine, and Davis' opportunity was also very good, but Lopez's performance in these two possessions was superhuman!

The Pelicans' crucial shot failed!

Lopez turned to grab the defensive rebound.

But just then, a figure suddenly flew up from beside him.

He looked up.

It was Tang Tian.

The fans in the arena all widened their eyes.

After passing the ball, Tang Tian had been moving towards the basket, and he happened to arrive at this time.

He made the right choice at the most crucial moment!

Lopez didn't get the ball, and Tang Tian had already arrived, he didn't even have time to dodge.

"Boom!"

Tang Tian scored with a put-back dunk over Lopez!

It exploded.

The New Orleans Arena exploded in an instant.

The Pelicans' bench went wild.

This put-back dunk was earth-shattering!

128 to 126!

With 10 seconds left in the game, the Pelicans had taken a crucial two-point lead!

Vogel reached out and called a timeout.

Just then, Tang Tian's stats for the night were displayed on the screen.

31 of 48 from the field, 11 of 12 from the free throw line, 9 of 16 from three-point range.

82 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks!

Tang Tian tied his single-game scoring record!

Compared to the last time, he had more shot attempts and more three-pointers made.

And next to this score, there was another new record.

Single-quarter scoring record, Tang Tian not only broke Anthony's 33 points, but also raised the record to 38 points!

Now, as long as they defended the Lakers' last attack, the victory would belong to the Pelicans!

The timeout ended.

"Defense! Defense!"

The cheers from the crowd continued.

The Lakers ran a starburst play on the frontcourt.

However, the Pelicans' defense was very well done, and Durant, who received the ball at the end, didn't get a chance to shoot.

And not only was Tang Tian guarding him, but all the other Pelicans were also fronting, not giving him a chance to pass the ball!

Durant had no choice but to attack strongly.

With little time left, he nearly had his dribble stolen by Tang Tian after turning his back to the basket.

He turned around and made a three-point attempt, but didn't get up high enough, and was forced to stop by Tang Tian!

With 2 seconds left, he had no choice but to make a contested fadeaway.

Tang Tian predicted it successfully and jumped in advance, completely blocking his shooting vision.

Durant leaned back slightly and tried his best to shoot the ball.

The ball left Durant's hand and still brushed Tang Tian's fingertips.

The shot was blocked!

The red light on the sidelines came on.

"Clang!"

The ball hit the front of the rim.

Durant's crucial shot didn't go in!

However, the fans in the arena didn't cheer immediately, because after the ball hit the front of the rim, it didn't fall out immediately, but was bouncing on it.

Bouncing, bouncing, and finally bouncing into the basket!

Durant's crucial shot went in again!

The Lakers players were still dejected one second ago, but the next second they were shouting and yelling excitedly.

The Lakers players on the court rushed up and roared at Durant.

Durant's magical last-second shot forced the game into overtime!

Tang Tian landed and saw the ball go in, and couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile.

Did he block the ball in?

But since it went in, it was just an overtime game.

The two teams had played before, and even played a double overtime.

The players on both sides returned to their respective halves of the court to prepare for the upcoming overtime game.

At this time, the fans on the forum were in an uproar.

"Tang must have done it on purpose! Because he can break the 82-point record in overtime!"

"That's right, if he didn't block it, the shot would definitely have been too long!"

"You guys... did you get your heads stuck in a door? Is Tang a god? Can he control whether the ball goes in after a block?! Confused black guy face"

"Ignore these wise guys, this ball was completely a miracle shot, but they're right, Tang now has a chance to break the single-game 82-point record!"

"That's right, Tang won't score zero points in overtime, breaking the record is a sure thing, playing overtime may not be a bad thing!"

"Hopefully it'll be a double overtime like last time, so that Tang not only has a chance to break the 82-point record, but even has a chance to touch Wilt Chamberlain's single-game 100-point record."

"I think this game will also go to double overtime."

"Holy crap, are you the brother who predicted the steal and the 82 points before? Close-up touch of the great god!"

"666, official prediction, Tang's 100 points, guaranteed!"

"Zhang Dashuai (Wilt Chamberlain) opened the coffin lid with a slam, saying help me up!"
