983: Fuck off, you don't deserve it
When Iguodala stepped onto the free-throw line, the live camera was shown to the sidelines, to Link, who was wearing off his training uniform.
There was a commotion at the scene, and Cole noticed that something was wrong and turned his head to look at Link, who was about to play, and froze in place.
"Are you going to call a timeout later?" Link noticed that Cole was looking at him, so he turned his head and smiled.
"Huh?" Cole looked confused, he didn't expect Link to talk to him all of a sudden.
"If you're going to call a timeout, I'm not going to go up first."
"......" Cole was completely confused, he was stupid, he didn't know what to say.
Wasn't Link already diagnosed with a non-displaced fracture of the first costochondral in his head? Didn't the Grizzlies say his return date is undecided?
Link can't fight today, isn't that already a consensus in the world?
So what's going on now? What did Link just say? He's going to play!?
"Boom!" Cole suddenly felt his head explode, his hand suddenly loosened, and the tactical board fell directly to the ground.
"Steve?" Link shouted again, and Cole recovered from his shock.
"Are you going to play? Your injury ......" Before Kerr could finish speaking, Iguodala on the court had already hit a free throw to give the Grizzlies their first lead of the game.
"It's time to take a timeout, Steve!" Seeing that Kerr was stunned in place and didn't make any moves, Warriors assistant coach Luke Kerr was stunned. Wharton snapped a reminder and tugged on Cole's arm.
Kerr looked at Link, then at the Warriors players who were about to serve the ball, and then asked the referee for a timeout.
Link looked at Cole and shrugged his shoulders, "If you told me to pause, tell me that you are really a person." ”
With that, Link walked back to the bench. Kerr immediately picked up the tactical board on the ground, turned around and walked to his bench.
His pace was fast, and his brow furrowed deeply.
He knew that the Warriors were in big trouble!
"Draymond, get ready, you'll face Link later!" Cole didn't talk nonsense, he didn't have time to think about why Link had suddenly appeared. If he continues to be in a state of shock, nothing can be done.
"Poof!" Green, who had just taken a sip of water, sprayed directly, and he looked at Cole in disbelief, thinking that Cole had made a mistake.
"Link?"
"That's right, Link! I don't know why he played, and I don't know if he had a real effect or if it was just a deterrent. In short, you need to watch him to death and not give him any chance! Cole's voice is loud, which means he's serious right now.
Link suddenly wants to play, which disrupts Cole's entire plans. I thought that as long as Link didn't start today, he wouldn't play. But Cole didn't calculate that Link would come off the bench!
Following on from yesterday's Carter and today's Iguodala, Kerr no longer dares to take any Grizzlies player lightly. What's more, this person is Link.
But how could Link, who said yesterday that he would take an indefinite break, suddenly be able to play today? Cole couldn't help but think.
Indefinite truce, fractured costochondral ...... Are all of these fakes?
No! Kerr and the Warriors' medical team have taken a hard look at the Grizzlies' injury reports, and the news is true. And there is no need for grizzly bears to lie. Having Link off the bench doesn't do them any good.
Then just use one situation, Link is playing with an injury! And, it certainly won't last long. Otherwise, there is no way for Jogger to let Link come out now!
Link also wore rib and shoulder protectors in his jersey, which means that his injury is definitely not complete.
Nonsense, where can someone heal in a day after a fracture.
Thinking of this, Cole let out a sigh of relief. At least today, Link is unlikely to be at 100% of his strength.
Just like the last fourth quarter, although Carter's stunner was very exciting. But I have to say that if Link had the ability to complete the stunner at that time, that goal would not have been Carter's turn to shoot at all.
As long as Green can be more careful, Link shouldn't be too exaggerated today.
Cole's heart rate finally slowed down, and he gradually accepted the unacceptable truth and regained his composure.
But not all Warriors players can have the mentality of Kerr......
When the timeout ended, almost all of the cameras and cameras on the scene were focused on the Grizzlies' bench.
Once again, Link stood up from the bench.
He wore his No. 0 jersey and stepped on the latest Link IV.
This year, Link ranked first in the league in both jersey sales and shoe efficiency. From this, it is not difficult to see Link's influence.
When such a player plays, it is bound to cause a huge earthquake.
"Link is really out, he's really here! Everyone thought Link was down, but he wasn't! The Warriors must now be very sorry for why they didn't establish an advantage before Link played! ”
Mike. Brin stood up straight from his chair and cheered for Link. Even though this is the home court of the Warriors, even if his behavior will attract a lot of unfriendly eyes, he can't help but do it.
He's sure Link will definitely make a big difference in this match.
Before the game, Kerr was clamoring to end the series, and Warriors fans felt like they had won!
Now, let's see who really wins!
And Mike. Next to Bryn, Kevin. Harlan was much calmer. Because he knows very well that Link wants to play now, and he needs to pay a huge price.
His appearance is not as glamorous as people think.
'Link should be playing with an injury and to be honest I'm worried about his fitness. If on the court, he is violated by Green again, it could be very bad. Kevin. Harlan's expression was serious, don't look at Link's current training uniform as soon as he takes off his training uniform.
But behind this, both the Grizzlies and Link must be burdened with a lot of pressure and pain.
The game restarted, and Link spread his arms to the overwhelming boos of the Warriors fans, waiting for the Warriors players to come up.
Everyone on the Warriors team was still somewhat intimidated, and even if Link just stood there and did nothing, it could have a great deterrent effect on the opponent.
Curry cautiously approached Dellavedova off the bench and then observed the situation.
At this time, Harrison. Barnes came out and was ready to catch the ball.
This young man wants to break ground on Link's head!
Barnes is considered the X-factor in this series, but so far in the series, Barnes has yet to put up a single bright performance.
Barnes himself was distressed by this. The Grizzlies' defense was more difficult to break down than he thought.
But now, looking at Link wearing protective gear, Barnes didn't feel scared, he felt as if he had seen a big piece of cake.
Link came on with an injury, which means that his body is certainly not in the best condition. Perhaps, the ability to resist will become very weak.
Barnes decided to give it a try and try to hit Link one. Think about it, what an honor it would be for him if he could beat Link today!
At that time, he will definitely become famous, and he can be regarded as worthy of the fans' expectations of him.
Fans don't care if Link is injured or not, they just look at the winner!
Seeing that Barnes was so positive, Curry gave the ball away.
Barnes made a couple of triple moves at the top of the arc from beyond the three-point line, and then suddenly stabbed Link's left hand side!
"Barnes actually broke through directly, he is very confident!"
Mike. As soon as Bryn's words fell, Link quickly moved sideways in front of Barnes.
"Bang!"
The bodies of the two collided solidly, Kevin. Harlan couldn't help but shake his body, he couldn't believe how much it was so hard for Link.
But on the court, Link didn't move an inch! Instead, it was Barnes, who was bounced back by Link's block!
"Link showed the same level of defense as ever, Harrison. Barnes picked the wrong opponent! "Mike. Brin watched with enthusiasm, and it was rare for a commentator of his age to be excited like this because of a certain scene in a game.
Link looked coldly at Barnes in front of him, and the murderous aura revealed in his eyes made Barnes feel that the air around him instantly became cold.
"What the are you thinking, stinky boy? Go aside! ”
Link said lightly, then suddenly accelerated.
"Whoosh!"
Barnes' eyes widened, and all he could feel was a gust of wind. Then Barnes, along with the basketball in his hand, was swept away by the gust of wind.
Link easily snatched the basketball from Barnes' hand, and he took advantage of the situation to fight back directly! Link's speed didn't seem to be visible at all, and he quickly crossed the entire stadium and no one could catch up with him! ”
Link gritted his teeth and continued to accelerate. There was a sharp pain in his ribs, but as long as the thought of the injury not getting worse would make it worse, Link was not afraid of anything.
Honor was originally fought for with blood!
Iguodala is willing to defend his honor at all costs, and Link, he is willing to protect the honor of the Memphis Grizzlies at all costs!
It's a man's game.
"Boom!"
Link pressed the ball into the frame with his uninjured right hand, and his dunk wasn't as dramatic as usual, but it was enough to send everyone in Oracle Arena into a panic.
Watching Link complete a one-handed dunk, Kerr slumped to the bench.
It seems that Link's appearance today is not just as a deterrent......
Link didn't leave immediately after landing on the ground, but waited for Barnes to come and pick up the ball.
Barnes hung his head, he didn't even dare to look at Link. Now, he felt that the idea he had just made was simply stupid.
Want to eat cake on Link's head? It's really too much!
Although Barnes has been hiding from Link's gaze, he has not escaped the fate of being humiliated in the end.
"Hey, don't get an axe in front of me anymore. It's not a question of whether you're strong enough, it's that you don't deserve it at all. Flash aside, bastard! ”
Link whispered that in Barnes' ear before running to his own half.
Barnes' hands were trembling, and the feeling of pressure he felt when he first passed Link made Barnes breathless.
What about Link? He wasn't going to beat a Harrison who wasn't in the world. Barnes was complacent.
Just now, it can only be regarded as a warm-up.
After getting Barnes done, Link walked up to Green again and made a "throat-cutting" gesture at him.
Link's revenge has just begun.
