NBA-level stars are generally difficult to contain completely, and if it happens that this star is still in a very hot offensive state today, then he will be invincible on the offensive end.

As a result, there have been many classic star-to-star showdowns in NBA history. And this kind of drama is exactly what the fans like the most.

The Eastern Conference semifinals between the Raptors and the 76ers in 2001 can be called the most exciting playoff matchup of the 21st century. Iverson averaged 33.7 points per game in the series, including 50+ points in the second and fifth games. Not to be outdone, "Demigod" Carter scored 50 points in Game 3 and averaged 30.4 points per game in the series. The two have played against each other for seven consecutive games, and the fans are addicted to it.

In 2006, two of the best players of the '03 generation teamed up to give the audience a spectacular scoring show in Cleveland. Wade, the Heat, scored 44 points on the road, while James, who was on the road, scored 47 points on 16-of-25 shooting and led the team to victory. This match showed the talent of the two Jenways to the fullest and was regarded as a classic.

Every time Jenway duel since then, it was as fierce and exciting as Mars hitting the earth.

When it comes to classic star explosions, how can you not mention Arenas in 2006?

Only two people in NBA history can score 60+ points on the Lakers' heads, one is Chamberlain and the other is Arenas.

On December 18, 2006, in the game where the Wizards challenged the Lakers away, the "General" shot 17 of 32 in the game and scored a terrible 60 points. Among them, he scored 16 points in overtime in a row, completely ending the suspense. Bryant was more efficient in the game, scoring 45 points on 15-of-24 shooting, but even so, he could only watch Arenas walk away from Staples for the victory.

Of course, the biggest winners of this match were the fans, who witnessed a super show by two super scorers.

There were also many classic star-to-star scenes in '06, such as Nash and Kidd. On December 8, 2006, the Suns beat the Nets with an exaggerated score of 161-157. The two teams collided with each other to become a classic representative of the gorgeous offense, with Kidd scoring a super triple-double of 38 points, 14 rebounds and 14 assists in the game, and Nash hitting back with 42 points and 13 assists. In the end, the two combined for 80 points and 27 assists, which can be called the craziest performance in the point guard matchup.

Facts have proved that the scene of stars exploding each other has always been the "standard" in NBA games. Sometimes, the two sides are so difficult to solve that neither side can completely take down the opponent.

At this time, it depends on which of the two sides has a higher ceiling. Whoever can perform better at the limit will be the ultimate winner.

And today, this game at the Banker's Life Arena will undoubtedly become another classic in the history of NBA star matchups.

On the court, George. Hill is controlling the basketball. Hill has only scored 11 points so far today, because most of the Pacers' scoring comes from their star Paul. George.

Hill was waiting outside the three-point line with the ball, and everyone knew what he was waiting for.

George and Link are fiercely entangled, and George is never able to shake Link off completely. Everybody, waiting for George to catch the ball.

In the end, George chose to play with Hill.

"Damn it!" Link yelled and slowed down sharply. Because Link doesn't slow down and puts George directly. Hill crashed to the ground, and he had to pay for a foul.

Taking advantage of Link's slowdown, "Pickled Pepper" drove straight into the basketball after getting the basketball and went straight to the inside!

At this time, the Grizzlies' interior guard was Sophomore Festus. Aizeli. Gasol was too much to consume today, and he was a little out of step at a fast pace. As a result, Azeli was given more playing time than usual.

Azeli was very brave, he took a decisive step forward, jumped at George, and tried to block George. But George is even more fearless, and he has scored 40 points so far! He is not afraid of anyone!

As a result, all one saw was George and Azeli colliding in the air! But in the end, Aizeli was directly knocked out of the bottom line, and George completed the violent dunk strongly!

"Separate people and deduct them! Poor Azeli, he was very brave, but he did not get the desired ending! ”

George yelled at Aizeli after the dunk landed, very domineering. Azeli shook his head pitifully, George's impact was too strong to resist.

42nd point of the game, Paul. George broke a new career high!

Being able to get a career-high scoring stat with the Grizzlies and Link's defense can be seen in George's performance today.

"It's okay, you're doing well, just a little bit of bad luck." Link walked up and patted Azeli on the shoulder, saying something reassuring.

Azeli's expression softened a bit.

George's slap just now was indeed too violent and shocking. The next time George fights again, Link would rather knock Hill down, and he won't let George break through so easily.

The only one who can stop George today is himself.

But Link then looked up at the big screen again, is there a next time?

At this point, the battle was 103-105, and the Pacers took a crucial two-point lead thanks to George's dunk just now. With only 25 seconds left in the game, Link pouted, hoping that there would be no next time.

Dave. Joggle immediately called a timeout and arranged the tactics of this final attack.

The entire camera was on Link, who was now the key to deciding the outcome of the match.

Link has also been outstanding today, scoring a quasi-triple-double of 39 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists.

He and George both cut down beautiful data, otherwise how can it be said that they blew each other up? Link's brilliant confrontation with George was the main tone of today's game.

There is no doubt that the final attack of the day will definitely fall to Link. Whether George can defend Link once in the crucial round, and whether Link can continue his magical scoring performance, has become the final suspense of today.

Link sat on the bench, out of breath. Trying to score crazy points under the Pacers, the league's second-best defense, is very physical.

Of course, Link believes that George must be tired enough by now. After all, trying to cut 40+ points on the grizzly bears and their own heads is also manual work.

If there is no chance of a final game later, Link will not hesitate to choose to drag the game into extra time.

In overtime, Link believes he can handle George! After all, physical fitness is Link's forte.

After four quarters of the game, it was time to decide the winners.

Jogle's first plan was similar to Link's imagination, and the Grizzlies would give Link an opportunity from beyond the three-point line to get a one-shot kill.

But if the opportunity doesn't come out, Link will need to break through with cover. As for what to do after the breakthrough, that's Link's business.

"Link, don't force the kill, we should seek stability. If the game drags into overtime, Hibbert will definitely not be able to bear it. That's when you're going crazy to score. Go ahead and take advantage of it. ”

Before the start of the game, Quinn. Snyder grabbed Link and whispered a few words.

Link nodded slightly, and it seemed that Snyder had a clear judgment of the situation. Although only an assistant coach, Snyder takes every game very seriously.

With 25 seconds to go, the Pacers were just 25 seconds away from victory. The crowd stood up, convinced that it belonged to Paul. A Night on George.

scored 42 points, defeated Link, broke the Grizzlies' undefeated golden body, and continued the Pacers' undefeated record...... Well, it all looks good, and the script should go in that direction.

But Link's game never follows the script.

"Defend! Defend! Defend! ”

The Grizzlies had just kicked the ball out when it was as if a volcano had erupted. The yellow cornfields were tumbling, and the atmosphere of the game was pushed to the climax.

The unbeaten streak of both teams had to be broken, and Link certainly knew that no team could win all 82 regular-season games, and it was only a matter of time before they lost.

But, not today!

Link was heavily defended by George, but Link was thankful that the Pacers didn't get on the pack.

Now, the Pacers have reverted to the defensive mode that they used to play at the beginning of the game. They didn't let Link or anyone else on the Grizzlies shoot a three-pointer, eliminating the possibility of losing.

Conley controlled the time on the outside, and with 18 seconds left in the game, Link stepped up and took over control of the ball from Conley!

At the scene, the shouts of the Pacers fans were even louder. It's as if the louder you shout, the stronger the Pacers' defense will be.

George is ready for battle! He doesn't want to play this game of scoring against Link anymore, and now, he's going to finish the game!

Ten seconds later, Link began to dribble under his crotch alternately from beyond the three-point line, looking for a rhythm. The black and white bear came up and did two covers, but the effect was not good. It seems that the tactics are not executed. Link waved his hand, he wanted to single!

Link suddenly accelerated to break through, but George didn't lose his position. At the same time, Hibbert walked under the basket and covered the entire basket.

Neither three-point nor basket is good, Link's only option is to shoot!

"George defended well and stayed in front of Link at all times. This summer, the two worked hard together at the training camp, and it was so much for each other! Link wants to shake George, it's not easy! ”

Link gritted his teeth, and instead of attracting the bag, his breakthrough didn't even shake George away. It seems that the only option now is to drag the game into extra time.

Link then suddenly made a sharp stop and retreated. There are countless stars who have been shaken by Link's move, and Bynum has even been shaken down by Link.

But Paul. Instead of looking foreign, George was like a magnet, sticking it up the moment Link retreated!

As Reggie . Miller said that the two of them knew each other too well!

"It's game over, Link!" George yelled, there were not seconds left until the end of the game, and Link couldn't continue to dribble because of his backward steps, which prevented him from eating Link!

Stopping the ball with a tight guard in the middle distance, Link was almost forced into a corner.

Direct shots? No, George is just waiting for himself to shoot directly. Link dares to guarantee that if he shoots directly, he will not be greeted by a goal, but George's big risk!

So, when Link was forced to die, he chose to jump on the spot and roll over and throw a backward jumper!

"This ...... Link is adding to the difficulty of his shot! "Reggie. Miller was shocked, this shot choice was too difficult!

But in fact, Link can only use this complex move to win a little shooting space for himself.

George is really well sealed, he is tall and has long arms, and his bounce is not bad, if it weren't for Link's slight recline angle, this ball would be 100% blocked.

George was sealed in Link's face, and it stands to reason that it was already a very successful defense. But George, who was in the air, was very nervous.

He knew better than anyone that he had just slowed down by half a beat! And this guy Link, even if he just takes the opportunity of a small half beat......

Link made a move before his view was completely obscured, and because the angle of recline was too large, he landed directly on his back and fell down after the shot.

George looked back for the first time and found that the basketball was flying very positively, and it looked like it was going to go in!

But the first time, the basketball hit the front of the basket!

At that moment, the entire Bankers Life Arena fans raised their arms. Bird was so excited that he "bounced" from his seat.

Win!?

Link sat up from the ground, just in time to see the basketball fall for the second time.

He knew that there was no problem with his shot. The reason why I slammed into the front of the basket was because I had just leaned back too much. However, this kind of vignette will not affect the hit rate!

In the next second, the basketball passes through the net. At the same time, the rebounds glowed red.

Link and the fans all over Indianapolis made a big joke!

"The ball is in! In the last moments, Link managed to equalize! It was a difficult ball and George didn't miss it from start to finish. But Link was still able to score and scored his 41st point of the half! Ladies and gentlemen, the battle continues! ”

Although Miller supported the Pacers, Link's goal was so brilliant that he couldn't help but shout out.

Link sat on the ground and looked at the panting Paul with a relaxed smile. George.

"Now, the game is really over, George."

George reluctantly hammered the floor, he was only a few tenths of a second away from completely sealing Link, just a few tenths of a second!

Link stood up with the help of his teammates, and his expression was very relaxed after scoring 41 points

Because Link knows very well that once the game goes into extra time, it's his rhythm.
