858:Twin Towers (3/5)

Chris. Paul didn't care what people thought of him, he just wanted to win.

Since entering the league in 05, Paul has quickly earned the title of "No. 1 point guard" and has become a top 10 superstar in the league.

But compared to the others in the top ten, his hard honor is really pitiful.

With Durant already going to the Finals and Link already holding two championship rings.

Chris. Paul, the guy who was always ranked very high by people, didn't even play in the division finals!

Paul thought he would be closer to glory when he came to Los Angeles. However, everything is no different from when it was in New Orleans.

This is already his 9th year in the industry, how many 9 years are there in a player's career?

Paul knew that his age was also rising, and his last peak was only a few years away.

If he can't make it to the division finals or even the finals during this period, he will most likely become John. Stockton's "unprecepted superstar".

That certainly wasn't what Paul wanted, and for someone like him who was desperate to win, not having an NBA championship was unacceptable.

Therefore, Paul chose to put victory first at this juncture when the Clippers "ran aground".

As long as they can beat the Grizzlies, there is hope for the Clippers, and Paul only thinks about that.

He doesn't care if Link is injured or not, and he doesn't care what the fans think of him.

All he knows is that the Clippers are now 8 points ahead, and that's the truth!

"Chris, added individual singles in the second quarter with an assist to an interior teammate scoring. We're going to open the score and win the game! "Doug. Rivers knew he was taking advantage of it now, so he didn't want to dwell on how it came about.

At first, Rivers only wanted the Clippers players to be rough with Link, but he didn't expect Paul to be so rough.

In that case, of course, it's time to seize the opportunity to win!

Paul nodded silently, his eyes full of murder. 4-0 is a thing of the past, and from today onwards, the status of the Clippers has changed!

The electronic beep sounded, and Chris. Paul stepped onto the pitch. As soon as he stepped onto the court, there was a deafening boo.

Paul didn't waver, he knew he was now on the "blacklist" of the Federal Express Arena.

But he was undaunted, instead staring straight ahead, waiting for the Grizzlies to attack.

But when Paul saw the Grizzlies' start in the second quarter, the unscrupulous No. 3 frowned slightly.

"Link came back and after a break he was back on the court. It seems that Link's body is fine, and Memphis fans can rest assured! Wait a minute...... In addition to Link, the Grizzlies also fielded Mark Brown. Gasol and Hassan. Whiteside. "Hubby. Brown couldn't help but raise his voice.

Jogger has sent a two-center lineup!

"Double center?" Doug. Rivers also noticed the change in the Grizzlies, but his expression was very relaxed, "That guy doesn't think that stacking big men can solve the inside crisis, right?" ”

Jordan Jr. was gearing up, and he couldn't wait to press Whiteside to the ground and rub it.

In the first quarter of the game, Jordan Jr. scored 6 points and 4 rebounds, and the data was quite good. However, due to the staggered playing time of the two sides in the first quarter, Jordan Jr. did not get the opportunity to play directly with Whiteside.

Now, Little Jordan wants to let the reporters see how unbearable the 10-day short-term work they blew up is!

Whiteside also clenched his fists, and he also wanted to go over and beat up little Jordan now, but he finally held back and didn't get carried away.

He has not forgotten that his current opponent is not Jordan Jr., but Blake. Griffin!

Jordan Jr.'s revenge will be avenged later, and his priority now is to help the Grizzlies tide over the storm.

The Grizzlies opened the second quarter with a baseline shot.

Link waited outside the three-point line for Conley to dribble across half court while Whiteside began wrestling with Griffin in an attempt to squeeze to the basket.

Gasol, on the other hand, stood in the middle distance and tried to hook Jordan Jr. out of the box.

As soon as Conley passed half-time, Link immediately started and went to pick it up.

As he accelerated, Link felt a faint pain in his calf, and Paul was really hard at that.

After Link received the basketball, he shook off Barnes with a forward change of direction and broke through again!

"Looks like you didn't hurt enough just now!" Seeing Link break through, Paul gloated.

He believes that Jordan Jr. will make Link learn to behave.

Little Jordan really pounced viciously, and they successfully restrained Link in the first quarter, so Jordan Jr. was full of confidence in the second quarter.

If Link is strong, he will only hurt himself more. If it is passed to Gasol, Jordan Jr. can also rush back to interfere as soon as possible.

But this time, Link didn't pass the ball to Gasol again when facing the bag, but hit the ground to Whiteside, who cut into the basket!

It's time to break through the Clippers' $30 million interior!

When Whiteside received the basketball, he was blocked by a Griffin in front of him.

Griffin's defense isn't top-notch, his defensive skills are mediocre, and his disadvantage in reach makes it very difficult to defend tall opponents.

Dirk and Duncan in their twilight years both had the experience of abusive Griffin.

The reason why Griffin was able to limit Harris before was because Harris was at a disadvantage in terms of strength and tonnage, and he couldn't beat Griffin. But Whiteside, who replaced Harris at this time, does not have this problem!

After receiving the basketball, Whiteside ran two steps and jumped to hook his hand, with a height of 2.13 meters and an arm span of 2.31 meters, his shooting point was very high, and Griffin couldn't reach it at all!

The Clippers champion tried to straighten his arm, but his little short hand didn't interfere at all......

Just like that, Link assisted Whiteside to hit a hook shot, and the Grizzlies narrowed the difference!

'Beautiful goal, Whiteside was a little too tall and too strong for Griffin. Let's see how the Clippers respond. "Hubby. Brin swung his fist, and it was probably the Grizzlies' most fluid offense of the day.

Whiteside happily pointed to Link in gratitude. Link nodded, then quickly backed away.

As he passed Paul, Link stopped and muttered in his ear.

"You're one of the lowest turnover rates in the league, you're not a prone person, Chris. But just now, you made a big mistake. ”

With that, Link walked away quickly, leaving only Paul with gritted teeth.

Paul knew Link had a tough mouth, but he wasn't going to fight back. As long as this attack can be scored, Link will naturally shut up!

In this round, Paul and Jordan Jr. repeated their old tricks, wanting to block and dismantle, and then throw empty catches.

But at this time, it was Whiteside who defended Jordan Jr.

Jordan Jr. cut in immediately after blocking and dismantling, but in the face of Whiteside, Jordan Jr.'s advantage in movement ability was not so obvious.

He may be able to shake off Gasol easily, but he can't shake off Whiteside, who is also athletic and has a vengeance bonus!

Paul still threw the ball into the air, unaware of Jordan Jr.'s predicament.

So, Whiteside jumped before Jordan Jr., and his long arms were like a high wall, blocking the basketball "out of the wall".

"Whiteside ruined Paul's open pass to Jordan, and now the Grizzlies are no longer at a disadvantage in athleticism!"

Hubi. As soon as Brown finished speaking, Link rushed up to pocket the ruined basketball. Paul was also grabbing the ball, but ate a dark elbow from Link while scrambling in the air.

You know, although Link doesn't deliberately hurt people, he has a lot of black tricks!

Paul was so dizzy from his elbow that he immediately covered his head and staggered a few steps, trying to win the referee's sympathy, but the referee ignored it.

Everyone knows that Paul loves to act, and after Paul was ruthless to Link in the first quarter, he left a bad impression on the referee. Therefore, the referee judged that Paul was playing tricks, so he did not interrupt the game!

As everyone knows, Paul really suffered a loss this time. But even if he did suffer, Paul would not be protected by the whistle.

This is the basketball version of "The Wolf is Coming".

Link grabbed the basketball and immediately pushed forward, and Barnes and Jordan Jr. pounced on Link viciously, as if they were going to knock Link off the line.

Link turned his head to look at Butler, who was following up outside the three-point line, but actually threw the ball lightly and sent it inside!

Whiteside, who had already walked to the basket, reached out and received the basketball, and when he reached the basket, he slammed it and pushed Griffin away.

Griffin's advantage in tonnage and strength turned into a disadvantage in front of Whiteside!

It's only a little space, but it's enough!

I saw Whiteside push Griffin and directly force a violent dunk, this dunk was so powerful that Griffin reflexively reached out to block his chest to protect himself.

The Clippers' interior advantage seemed to be gone, leaving Whiteside to wreak havoc.

"DeAndrew, protect the basket, protect the basket!" Doug. Rivers started shouting at the top of his duck, knowing that Griffin alone couldn't stop Whiteside.

The destructive power of this giant beast is much greater than when he first came to the Clippers for a tryout, and only Jordan Jr. can compete with it.

With only four points left, Link stuck out his tongue at Paul, "I'm sorry, but you're really vulnerable!" ”

Paul was utterly angry, but he wasn't the kind of person who was prone to hot-headedness. As the team commander, he kept his cool in the next round of attack and didn't play any singles.

Paul knows that Jordan Jr. is basically being seen dead by Whiteside now. So, I planned to find an opportunity from Griffin.

Eventually, Paul created a mid-range shot for Griffin with a breakaway pointer. But under the interference of Gasol, who is tall and has long arms, Griffin's shot completely lost his crosshairs and was ridiculously crooked!

The Clippers' interior became extremely weak in the second quarter, and Jordan Jr. and Griffin were both dumbfounded! At both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, they were all eaten to death by the Grizzly Twin Towers.

Jordan Jr. was unwilling to retreat, and he didn't believe that the Clippers interior line would be suppressed by an outdated All-Star + 10-day short-term worker.

So this time defensively, Jordan Jr.'s position was very close to the basket. The purpose was simple, to interfere with Whiteside's attack.

He had to step up and protect the basket.

Seeing Jordan Jr.'s position so close to the basket, Link became happy, and the Clippers are now completely led by the nose!

Link lifted the basketball before the bag was formed, and seemed ready to pass the ball to Whiteside.

Jordan Jr. immediately retreated to the basket, but the next second, Link passed the ball in the opposite direction!

At the free-throw line, Gasol receives a basketball and is unguarded!

No matter how fast Jordan Jr. is this time, he can't rush back, and he is too far away from Gasol when he retreats to the basket!

Gasol didn't hesitate and lived up to expectations with the ball in the ball! As soon as the second quarter came up, the Grizzlies came out with a wave of 6 waves of 0, which instantly narrowed the point difference!

And these 6 points are all from Grizzlies interior players!

"What? DeAndre should give Gasol enough respect in the middle distance, Gasol is a real shot. "Mark. Jackson complained, how could little Jordan just let go of Gasol?

Perceptive Doug. Rivers immediately suspended the game and was chased by six straight points, which did not bode well. The Grizzlies' twin towers changed formations and caught the Clippers off guard!

Link excitedly rushes up to hug his two giant teammates, they really help!

Of course, Link also knew that this was just a warm-up.

The real counterattack will be even more violent than this......
