It was a jump shot from the free throw line, characterized by Qin Yue and created by the Warriors using the Flex strategy.

During Qin Yue's college career, Coach Skip Prosser and the Wake Forest Demon Deacons became famous for this strategy, and now, it has successfully etched Qin Yue's name permanently on the NBA milestone!

In this moment, he is the chosen one, the only one!

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is my pleasure to witness history with you tonight; just now, the Messiah from China scored his first 60 points in his career." On TNT TV Station, Barkley, smiling more brilliantly, even took a moment to send a text to Michael Jordan.

"Hurry, Michael, turn on the TV. The one you admire as Larry Bird's successor has already scored 60 points in the game against the Lakers, and there's still 7 minutes and 45 seconds left in the fourth quarter!"

Unfortunately, Barkley's message was destined to sink into oblivion.

Because Michael Jordan, who never missed a second of this game... was already in tears.

Watching Qin Yue, who dared to challenge in Los Angeles and successively scored 50 and 60 points with a smooth three-pointer and jumpshot...

Would you say to Jordan that this isn't Bird reincarnated?

If you asked Mr. Michael Jordan what was the most regrettable yet unforgettable thing in his career, he would surely tell you that in his early years...

His trophy named "Michael Jordan's innocence" was permanently collected in the King Museum by Larry Bird.

It was a trophy Jordan never reclaimed until he retired.

Because as he was striding toward the peak, Larry Bird had already quietly exited, never giving him a chance for revenge.

At the Staples Center, Jordan's "heroic sweat" of the night is destined to keep flowing.

On the court, with assists so outstanding from his teammates that Qin Yue was almost embarrassed... scores of 62, 64, 66, 68... came in rapid succession.

To push Qin Yue to the 70-point milestone, the entire Warriors team expended 5 minutes and 35 seconds.

Don't blame the Warriors players for taking too long.

After all, with physical endurance rapidly declining, Qin Yue could hardly be perfect in every shot.

Moreover, no matter how weak the Lakers' inside line may be, they are still wearing Lakers jerseys?

As the saying goes, if a basketball game isn't played to win, what's the point of it?

But now, Qin Yue must seize the time because the whole game is going to end in just 2 minutes and 10 seconds, and the score is already 117 to 104.

Thirteen points difference, two minutes, it's just four three-pointers away.

But in this era, it's not an easy score to catch up.

On the court, after Kobe's three-pointer, which couldn't save the Lakers, bounced off the rim, "Zen Master" Jackson on the Lakers' bench immediately called for five substitutes.

This night, Lakers players have valiantly guarded their glory.

Jackson had every reason to let this Lakers team exit gracefully.

As one with experience, Jackson knew well that Kobe, who had given Lakers 41 points, 13 rebounds, 14 assists, and 3 steals before being substituted, could not have done better in this game.

However, due to Qin Yue's presence, the Warriors were evidently the Lakers' number one nemesis this season.

There must be a loser in a game, perhaps the Lakers are tonight's loser, but tomorrow's loser could be the Warriors.

This current Lakers team is far from contending with the Warriors. In Jackson's view, only by biding their time and preparing for the future can they be wise.

Of course, calling up the five substitutes now, Jackson also aimed to irritate the Warriors and Qin Yue.

Jackson didn't want Qin Yue to reach the 70 points in front of the Lakers' main players, so by the time Davis was dribbling past half-court, he had already given Fisher a subtle signal with his eyes.

However, Jackson never expected... Fisher's action was ultimately a beat too slow.

Because at that very moment, standing on the Lakers logo, Qin Yue received Davis' pass and unbelievably accomplished a "Logo.Shot"!(Note②)

Golden State Warriors, wearing jersey number 30, using a "Logo.Shot" to punctuate this night of his career, in Qin Yue's eyes, that is the most perfect script!

Even though it was a task that required luck to complete for the current Qin Yue, with the basketball flying toward the hoop with that elegant arc, Qin Yue's next second resplendent and sunny smile...

Had already revealed the answer to the world!

Swish—!

The three-pointer made it, and the door of the 70 points milestone was simultaneously pushed open by Qin Yue!

At this moment, Qin Yue, who was propelled to the pinnacle by the entire Warriors team, officially elevated the NBA rookie single-game scoring record to an unprecedented 71 points!

And in Los Angeles, amid the silence of nearly twenty thousand fans at the Staples Center, with hands clasped and gently lowered to his ear, Qin Yue once again offered his best wishes to this Angel City:

"Good night, Los Angeles!"

Note①: In the original historical line, Kobe would also joke that Artest is a stand-up comedian, this line is classic in the NBA.

Note②: Logo.Shot, which refers to a super long three-pointer taken standing on the center court logo, Curry and Lillard are typical representatives of such long-range shots.
