As soon as he thought of his performance in Game 5 of the series, Link felt ashamed. Unexpectedly, the Grizzlies also had a day of overturning. If you just overturn by yourself, it's still the whole team overturning.

Throughout the game, the Grizzlies took a total of 78 shots and hit 50 irons...... The team shot just 35.9 percent from the field. Link's 33.3 percent shooting percentage is the second-highest of the starting five......

Some media joked that it may be that the Grizzlies players went to a nightclub under the leadership of Randolph to celebrate the victory in advance, so they were not in good shape the next day.

But that's just a joke after all, and everyone knows how hard the Grizzlies worked this year. But sometimes, that's how basketball is played. You think you're going to win, but you're just going farther and farther on the road to rollover.

Fortunately, the next game is back in Memphis, otherwise it is not impossible for the Thunder to win two consecutive games at home.

Speaking of which, the situation in the west has basically been very tense this year. The Spurs and Hornets are currently tied at 2-3, and Paul doesn't want to be eliminated early.

The Mavericks and the Nuggets have already played 3-1, but the Nuggets didn't let the Mavericks sweep, which is already causing trouble for the Mavericks.

The Lakers and Trail Blazers are also now 3-2, with the defending champions facing stiff resistance in the first round. Overall, no series in the West has shown a crushing stance.

The Eastern Conference was different, with the Heat and Bulls both knocking out their opponents with a score of 4-1, and the Celtics even beat the Knicks with a 4-0 sweep.

It has to be said that the competition in the west is indeed much more intense. But this tragedy is relative, both for the low-ranked teams and for the high-ranked teams.

Both the Thunder and the Grizzlies are under a lot of pressure right now, and if the Thunder lose the next game, they will have to go straight home. But if the Grizzlies lose, the overall score will be tied at 3-3. And most importantly, the tiebreaker will be played on the Thunder's home court. For grizzly bears, that's undoubtedly quite dangerous.

Therefore, the Grizzlies' goal for the next game is clear, and that is to solve this series in Memphis!

The game has been played like this, how can you give up the possibility of promotion?

Link went to bed early tonight, and he didn't want his performance to continue to dip tomorrow.

It was a decisive battle, and if anything went wrong, Link would regret it for the rest of his life.

All day today, it was raining heavily outside the window. I only want the thunder that comes with the torrential rain not to let Memphis ignite a raging fire.

※※※

The next day, before the alarm went off, Link had already opened his eyes. Today is Game 6 against the Thunder, and Link was excited all night yesterday and he just can't wait.

As always, Link wakes up and washes up, turns on the TV for the news, and then goes to the kitchen to toss his nutritious breakfast.

Today, however, the Memphis news channel did not say anything about sports. Because in Memphis, there was something that was perhaps more impactful than sports.

"Due to recent torrential rains and spring ice melt, the Mississippi River has overflowed, and the water level is approaching the highest level since the 30s of the last century. Parts of Memphis, Tennessee, were flooded, and thousands of families living in low-lying areas were asked to evacuate. ”

The Mississippi River has risen to 14.63 meters, nearly reaching its all-time high of 14.84 meters in 1937. The Mississippi River is now twice as watery as normal, with a flow of 56,000 cubic meters per second, causing a 'regurgitation' of the tributaries that should flow into the Mississippi River. ”

"Overnight, many houses and cars were submerged in water, and several areas were at risk of flooding. As the water level of the Mississippi River continues to rise. Some people struggled to walk through waist-high floodwaters, while others chose to paddle in canoes. ”

Link whistled and fried eggs, still wondering why today's sports news hadn't started yet. Until Grizzlies general manager Chris. Wallace made a phone call to Link, and Link realized the seriousness of the matter.

"What? I'm safe, Chris. Mr. Wallace, the neighborhood where I live has not yet been flooded. I've heard that the submerged areas are all in the surrounding low-lying areas. Don't worry, it won't affect my game today, and it's unlikely to affect my life. ”

Link didn't expect that Chris. Wallace would call and ask if he was trapped by the flood and if he was in danger. After receiving the call, Link hurriedly looked out the window and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that everything was normal.

But let's get Chris. Wallace personally called to inquire and explained that the flood was much worse than Link had imagined.

To be on the safe side, Link decided to go out early and meet the team at the Federal Express Arena first.

Link was right, his neighborhood was not affected by the disaster. But when he drove his Land Rover two blocks away, Link was dumbfounded.

"Sir, I'm afraid you'll have to go back the way you came, because of the flood, the water in front of you is waist-high! If you force your car to pass through, it will be very dangerous. We are currently evacuating the residents here, and we hope that you will cooperate. ”

A police officer who had set up a roadside checkpoint told Link to roll down the window and say the above to him. Less than 50 meters in front of Link, the original city streets were completely submerged in the water!

"Wocao, this Nima is too exaggerated!" Link swallowed, it was the first time he had seen this kind of scene that he could only encounter in disaster movies before!

"Wait, you're ...... You're Link! At this moment, the marine police officer who stopped Link pushed away his sunglasses and stared at the Chinese man in front of him in surprise.

"That's right, it's me. Thank you just for the reminder, officer. "Link didn't hide it, and the key thing is that he can't hide it.

"Oh my God! It's really you! Oh my God, the last time you played in Memphis, you were ......"

"Shhh.......h Don't alarm the others, officer. You know, we've got a do-or-die final against the Thunder tonight. ”

"That's right, my family bought tickets and we'd love to see the team qualify for the playoffs at home!" The Marine Police was extremely excited, and it looked like he was also a basketball fan.

"So the question now is, how do I get through the waterlogged section ahead. I had to rush to the FedEx arena and I didn't want to miss the pre-game because of the flood. Link said what made him most anxious, not because he was afraid of floods, but because he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to catch the race.

If he misses the pre-match preparation or even the game because of the flood, Link will be completely famous. He will become the first NBA player in NBA history to miss a game because his way out was flooded, and this reason for missing a game can be said to be quite refreshing.

"You can go around Seventh Street, where the ground is higher and you can still get through at the moment." The officer showed Link the way, but Link was still frowning.

"How many cars did you let go around this morning? Traffic in both directions has to choose where to detour, right? ”

"That's right, we've commanded about a hundred cars to get around."

"Damn, then Seventh Avenue must be blocked by now!" Link slapped the steering wheel hard and was about to start the car, but was stopped by the officer.

"Perhaps, I have a way to get through quickly. It doesn't delay your time and keeps you safe. ”

"Oh? Helicopters? ”

"Helicopters? No, no, the helicopters have been deployed to the hardest-hit areas. I mean, we can paddle through this section of waterlogged area and send a police car to escort you to the Federal Express Arena. ”

"What!? Boat!? Link scratched his head, and sure enough, you never know what kind of trouble you're going to get in this series.

This trouble, of course, also includes the trouble outside the field.
