950:I Confess His Greatness (Fourth Shift)
Iguodala, who came off the bench, reached out and intercepted Holiday midway through to Coolingham.
Iguodala played very excitedly in the playoffs and was a lot more aggressive than he was during the regular season.
This guy, who seems to be useless anymore, once again ended his "playing dead" time and was on fire in the playoffs.
Iguodala made a quick push on his own as soon as he completed the steal, and he walked through the crowd, as if he had instantly returned to the 76ers period, turning back into the "little AI" who flew away.
Eventually, the strong Iguodala ended the break with a one-handed slam.
He hung on the basket for a few seconds before he reluctantly let go.
The dunk made the whole court boil, and even the players on the Grizzlies bench were so excited that they couldn't help themselves. All kinds of bizarre celebrations made the fans laugh.
And the desertion of the Pelicans' bench is clearly out of step with the lively atmosphere.
The Pelicans players on the bench looked like ashes and looked very depressed.
The Pelicans players on the court shook their heads vigorously, very annoyed.
Because of Iguodala's dunk just now, the difference was widened to 15 points. At this time, there were only 2.3 seconds left before the end of the first quarter......
From the beginning of this game, the Pelicans were pressed to the ground by the Grizzlies and fatly beaten.
When Link forcefully blocked Anthony. After Davis' dunk, the Pelicans seemed to be deflated.
Link's block not only covered Davis' dunk, but also covered the Pelicans' morale and hope.
So in the following games, the more they played, the worse they became, and the more they played, the less confident they became.
After the first quarter of the game entered the rotation time, the gap in strength between the two sides was further widened.
Although the Pelicans specially arranged for Holiday to play the sixth man and lead the second team.
But with Norris. Cole, Akinsa, Lane. Anderson and Dante. Coolingham is a few, Holiday really can't move......
As a result, the score difference was widened more and more. Before the first quarter was played, they fell behind by double digits.
Now, although there are still 2.3 seconds left for the Pelicans. But 2.3 seconds was not enough for the Pelicans to play a decent offense.
In the end, Holiday could only choose to shoot from a long distance in the half.
There is no doubt that this kind of ball is unlikely to be thrown. Basketball hit the iron, and the Pelicans had to go into the second quarter with a 15-point deficit.
"At the end of the first quarter, the Grizzlies only let the Pelicans take the ...... in the first quarter 13 points. Kevin. Harlan shook his head, the grizzly bear was really unrelenting.
13 points in a single quarter, which is simply terrifyingly low. Throughout the first quarter, no player from the Pelicans even scored more than four points......
Davis scored just 2 points on just 1-of-4 shooting from Link's defense.
Bombset shot 1-of-3, including 0-of-2 from beyond the three-point line, and scored just 2 points.
Tyrek. Evans shot 0-of-2 from the field, and since he was chased by Link, he didn't feel like he could play, scoring just one point from the free throw line in the first quarter.
Holiday shot 0-of-2 and didn't have any stats other than two assists.
Eric on 1-of-4 shooting. Gordon was the Pelicans' top scorer in the first quarter, but he only scored three points...... The Pelicans' only three-pointer in the first quarter was his shot.
The Pelicans' performance in the first quarter can only be described as miserable. The Grizzlies seem to be using their prowess to tell the Pelicans, "Fuck your basketball dreams!" ”
"Well, I was wrong, a lot of people are wrong. Many people believe that Anthony. Davis, a superstar, can cause problems for Link, but that's complete nonsense. ”
Kevin. Harlan really can't look directly at the Pelicans' data in the first quarter, you just can't pick a good point if you want to, and you can't find one if you want to.
"You know what? The sooner you realize this, the sooner you can be liberated. Look at me, I'm in a really good mood right now. "Bill. Simmons smiled, he didn't look like he had come to shave his head at all.
"You mean, you've been conquered by Link?"
"Of course not, no one can conquer me, not even my wife. I still hate Link, but you have to admit that the league needs such a man, such a villain. Without him......" Simmons said, glancing at Grizzlies No. 0 who was motivating his teammates on the bench.
"Without him, the league would be a lot less exciting."
The second quarter of the game started quickly, but everyone knew that the Pelicans couldn't get close to the score. Grizzlies don't like to torment their opponents, and they've always been about efficiency.
Sure enough, not long after the second quarter, the Grizzlies widened the margin to 25 points.
Link still puts Anthony . Davis ate to death, he was completely a bug-like existence, and the Pelican's operation collapsed entirely.
At halftime, the Grizzlies still entered the locker room with an 18-point advantage.
Davis scored six points in the second quarter, but his performance was still not great.
During the halftime interview, the young Davis was sweating profusely and looked tired.
"Link is a great player and there's a reason he's dominating this league. We do have a gap in strength, but I don't want to give up yet. ”
This tepid sentence means that Davis's heart has been completely smoothed.
The half-time break finally arrived, and none of the fans left their seats.
Because during the intermission, Bill. Simmons is about to cash in on the outcome of his bet with Link.
Simmons sat in the barber chair, and a barber walked behind the commentary and stood behind the chair.
The fans cheered, they had been looking forward to this day for countless days and nights!
Yesterday, the NBA officially announced the list of the best players of April. On the eastern side, Demar. DeRozan won for the first time! On the Western side, Link, who had 53 points in a single game and led the team to a 21-point reversal of the Warriors, continued to win the Western Conference Monthly Award for a second consecutive year!
So far, Link has won all six Player of the Month awards this season, fulfilling his promise. At the same time, he also officially became the first player in NBA history to win all the awards of the month in a single season.
This is a great record that is considered impossible for any player to achieve in the future. Even if anyone could do it, it would be Link himself!
And Bill. In order to fulfill his promise, Simmons also happily came to the game. In the presence of fans all over the world, he shaved his hair, which he carefully groomed every day.
Before being shaved, Bill. Simmons rushed to Kevin next to him. Harlan asked for a microphone.
He was smiling, not in pain from losing a hair.
"Well, I know, you bastards can't wait, can you?"
As soon as Simmons finished speaking, the fans responded with cheers.
"Good, fine, but before I shave my head, I have to say a few words. I've said that no one on this planet can win the Player of the Month award in the West for six months in a row, and anyone with common sense knows that it's impossible. As I have said, this is the kind of thing that only God can do. ”
"But now, that god has really appeared. I said, if I lose this time, I'll admit Link's greatness. So, I'm going to tell everyone here. Link is the greatest superstar of our time. He doesn't necessarily make everyone like, but you have to admit that he is the strongest! ”
After saying that, Simmons closed his eyes and shouted at the barber behind him, "Before I regret it, let's do it!" ”
"Are you sure? Bill. Mr. Simmons. ”
"Come on!"
So, in the presence of fans all over the world, the haircut tweet crossed through Simmons. In an instant, a whole piece of hair fell out of his middle.
"No, no, no, stop, I can't look at Bill anymore!" Kevin next to him. Harlan screamed, but in reality, he was more excited than anyone else......
After that, it's the second push, the third push...... Soon, Simmons' hair was gone.
As one might expect, Bill. Simmons' bald head is really ugly......
Everyone laughed, and Link, who was sitting in the locker room, shook his head.
There is no doubt that this will be the case for Charles. After Barkley kisses the donkey's butt, it's the most entertaining scene in basketball history.
And these two incidents were caused by Chinese players.
After Simmons shaved his own hair on live television, the biggest attraction of the game is over.
Then the second half and the whole first round......
Link isn't going to give the Pelicans any respite, either.
