Just for a moment, it originally belonged to Paul. George's night is ruthlessly ruined by Link.

This battle against the Biao is classic enough that Pacers fans have already enjoyed it, and they want the game to end here. But it's clear that Link doesn't intend to end the game like that.

For him, only the final victory is a classic.

George's heartache, Link is really not that easy to deal with. In all these years, this was the closest he'd come to defeating Link. But in the end, it's still a little bit worse.

George sat back on the bench and wiped his sweat with a towel. Although the score was equalized, the Pacers still had overtime to play. But being dragged into overtime with a 2-point lead in the final minute was still very demoralizing.

For grizzly bears, they are brought back from the dead. But for walkers, they're falling off a cliff.

"It's okay, it's just five minutes longer. We lasted 48 minutes and we can definitely keep going. George, don't let the offensive offensive, okay? You've done a great job this whole game, keep it up! ”

Frank. Vogel walked up to George first, and he knew very well that George was the Pacers' hope for victory today.

George nodded silently, his heart full of unwillingness and grievance. This time, be sure to clean up the game!

On the Grizzlies' side, Link's big heart shot boosted the morale of his teammates. And because of the rotation plan, the Grizzlies can still field a relatively solid lineup during overtime.

Joggle can now safely bring Gasol back on the court, having just rested Gasol in the last minute, and Joggle is leaving a way out for extra time. Now it seems that it was the right decision.

If a heavy center like Gasol were to play in regulation time and then in extra time, they would certainly not be able to withstand their fitness.

That's the case with Hibbert on the Pacers' side, and in overtime, Hibbert's rim protection efficiency will definitely plummet. When the time comes, it will be impossible for the Pacers to still hold the penalty area!

"How's the rest, Mark?" Dave. Joggel patted the Spaniard on the shoulder.

"It's no problem after overtime!" Gasol replied with a fist.

"Very well, next, you and Link form a defensive trap and put Paul . George has killed me in containment! Link, Hibbert is not to be afraid now, he should be too tired to do it, I want you to strengthen the breakthrough! ”

Link and Gasol nodded their heads, and the Pacers missed the chance to kill the Grizzlies, so they didn't want to have a second time!

At this time, Link was receiving Judy. Seto's massage. Before extra time, he had to relax his muscles as much as possible.

On the one hand, it is to relieve fatigue, and on the other hand, it is to avoid injury. I have to say that Judy, who is not good-looking, has indeed played an indispensable role in this man's game, and the "secret weapon" that Kobe Bryant gave to Link is very powerful.

After a short break, the sweaty players re-entered the pitch.

On the Pacers' side, the 2.11-meter-tall French blue-collar center Ian Brown. Masimmi came on for Hibbert and started in extra time.

Masimmi was drafted by the Spurs in 2005 but didn't finally enter the league until 2007. For so many years, Masimmi has been a substitute blue-collar worker. The season with the most starts was only 12.

He's always been a mediocre player who can be used, but it's best not to expect too much.

Now the Pacers are bringing the French up, not because of a change in tactics, but because Hibbert is too tired to do it! Frank. Vogel couldn't help it, so he took the risk of being a substitute for Masimmi.

However, can Masimmi's frame protection be better than Hibbert's? Of course not!

Snyder was right, in overtime, the Grizzlies would have the advantage!

The referee blew the whistle and the classic star-to-star duel continued.

Link and George both scored 40 points, and Link was one rebound away from a triple-double. In the first leg of extra time, Link continued the form he had just put in with the whistle kick.

Grizzlies No. 0 did not hesitate, and after taking the ball, he rushed directly to the restricted area. Now without Hibbert, the Pacers' basket is full of opportunities!

Masimmy and George chased after him, but Link was stunned to score the ball under the interference of two people!

Marcinmi's defense is not at all on the same level as Hibbert, and there is a lot difference in height, and Link is not afraid of the Pacers' bag at all.

Seeing Link score easily, Frank. Vogel's heart shook. Without Hibbert's few minutes, I don't know if Masimmi would have been able to hold on.

After this goal, Link's individual score and the Grizzlies' overall score were both overtaken.

Link scored 43 points, overtaking George, who scored 42 points. The Grizzlies outscored the Pacers by two points and seized the initiative.

Although Link scored first, the Pacers fans were not discouraged, they were still passionate and roaring.

Anyway, in the offensive round of the Pacers, George will definitely be able to get those two points back.

Is this really the case?

In the next round, West wanted to play in the low post to help George take some of the pressure off his belt. But Randolph grabbed it ferociously, and West finally gave up on the plan.

In overtime, every round of offense and defense is lethal, and West doesn't want the Pacers' good situation to end up in his own hands.

In the end, "David West" still gave the ball to George, which is the Pacers' safest offensive method!

"Don't gasp, the game is still long." Seeing George catch the ball, Link immediately sneered.

George was a little nervous, he knew that his fatigue was completely exposed to Link. In an effort to cover up, George had no choice but to go on the offensive immediately.

Link's goal was achieved, and it was clear that his trash talk was putting George under a lot of pressure.

Under tremendous pressure, George only buried his head in the breakthrough, but forgot to observe the situation.

When he found himself caught between Link and Gasol and reacted that he had fallen into a defensive trap, it was too late.

George threw a shot under Link's block, but Gasol Jr., who is now full of energy, won't allow George to continue too late. He stretched out his arm and jumped as hard as he could, and he was stunned to hit the basketball!

Successful capping!

There was a mess under the basket, and Masimmi stumbled to get the offensive rebound.

He didn't think much about it, and immediately jumped a second time, planning to dunk directly!

But this time, after Gasol, Link stepped up again. He jumped hard in front of Ma Simmi, and was stunned that while Ma Simmi's body was still rising, he directly fanned the basketball and flew out!

The complementarity of Link and Gasol on the inside completely dashed the Pacers' scoring hopes!

"Two blocks in a row, the Grizzlies' interior defense is in danger. Gasol helped Link make up George, and Link helped Gasol make up Masimmi. It looks like the Grizzlies are still thinking clearly and energetic, as if they were playing the first quarter. The Pacers, on the other hand, were obviously in a hurry. ”

Reggie. Miller was a little concerned that the Pacers were significantly less composure than the Grizzlies in overtime.

And in overtime, the Grizzlies still have Gasol as a defensive gate. The Pacers, on the other hand, lost Hibbert's shelter and were very passive from the start.

Iguodala gets the basketball that Link fans out of the way and gives it to Conley.

"Let's go, hurry up!" Link waved his hand and ran past Conley.

The Pacers' physical fitness has reached a critical point, and what Link has to do now is to accelerate the consumption of the Pacers.

Conley immediately put the ball on to Link, who was running at the front, Link broke through the box, and three players wearing Pacers jerseys had already surrounded Link. The Pacers and Link are dead, and even if they pull and pull, they don't want Link to score again.

However, Link didn't go straight to the frame as one might think, but found Iguodala ambushed in the bottom corner of the crowd!

The moment he saw Link's pass, George immediately ran to the bottom corner and tried to block Iguodala as much as he could.

Iguodala is not a scorer, but he is also a killer when it matters most!

Iguodala calmly received the basketball, his eyes fixed on the basket. In the face of George, Iguodala did not panic.

Staring at the basket, he calmly passed in his hand, and quickly moved the ball to the right side outside the three-point line.

"It's still passing, Iguodala is patient, he's not in a hurry to score!"

Sometimes, passing more and less can make a huge difference in attack. Iguodalana was already an opportunity just now, but he still chose to pass more and export better opportunities.

George's eyes followed the trajectory of the basketball, only to realize that Link, who was still under the basket just now, had returned to the three-point line. And at this time, it was he who received the basketball!

"Can't let him shoot!" George yelled in his heart as he lunged at Link like crazy.

But he was too tired to burst out at the same speed as before.

Link took the ball and threw it, and when he had finished his shot, George's block was in place.

Link, who had already shot his hand, didn't waste the opportunity, and the basketball raced into the net, leaving only the desperate "waves".

Link scored 5 points in a row! This scene is very similar to George who announced that he had begun to explode in the second quarter of the game!

"Slow down, George. How? Can't run? ”

George had just been "stabbed" by Link's goal, and was immediately stabbed by Link's trash talk.

When you're tired and out of breath, only to find that the other person is still alive. That feeling of oppression is not something that words can describe.

It's like in a boxing match, where the two sides fight for five rounds. You keep hitting the opponent, and the opponent's head is bleeding, and you don't even have the strength to punch. As a result, the other party just smiled at you, and then said lightly, "You can't do it?" ”

When a person can't kill the other person even with all his might, fear takes over his heart.

The Pacers trailed by 5 points, and Frank. Vogel was already thinking about getting Hibbert on the line.

Until then, Vogel only hopes that George can hold on. Masimmi? Looking at it now, I can't count on it.

George is under a lot of pressure right now, and he knows he has to take responsibility, but the fitness is really not going to take it.

Link is constantly actively looking for confrontations, just to speed up the loss of George's physical energy.

George took a breather this round and handed the ball to "Funny Phifenson".

Stephenson gave a butterfly walk in front of Iguodala, this guy has a strong streetball atmosphere, after all, he had blown up a lot of adults on the street court when he was 16 years old, and he was a real street kid.

Stephenson's dazzling movements are so unruly that he looks like he wants to hold back his big moves. But as soon as he took his first step, Iguodala calmly reached out and slapped the ball away!

Stephenson hurriedly reached out and tried to regain control of the basketball. But the ball didn't control and poked it out of bounds.

"What is that idiot thinking!?" Larry in a luxury box. Bird was furious, and Stephenson could sometimes really make people angry!

Watching the basketball go out of bounds, Stephenson scratched his head innocently, looking like a child who was overwhelmed after making a mistake.

One second it's too loud, the next second it's revealed, this is Stephenson's style.

George covered his forehead, and the corners of his mouth twitched. No, it's up to you to attack!

"Roy, come on, hurry!" Vogel was also a little helpless, Stephenson was half angel and half demon. Sometimes he'll step up and get the opponent, and sometimes he'll step up and get the out of himself.

As for when he was an angel and when he was a demon, it is estimated that even he did not know.

Hibbert is back in the hunt and hopes to stop the loss in time. But as a tower that averages less than 30 minutes per game, Hibbert is seriously out of time today. Now that he is still playing early, he has not rested well at all.

Running on the pitch with a height of 2.18 meters and a weight of nearly 125 kilograms is unimaginably expensive.

With Hibbert's first defense since his return, the Pacers desperately need a win. In addition to stabilizing the scoreline, they also need to stabilize their morale very much now.

All it takes is one successful defense and everything will be solved.

But it's clear that Link doesn't intend to make the Pacers successful, and today, he's here to smash the signboard!

Is it George's night? No, not necessarily!

Link didn't choose to break with the ball this time, but instead cut into the basket after covering without the ball.

Conley delivered the ball to Link very precisely, and this seemingly simple job is actually where Conley's value lies.

Why is he a top five point guard in the league? Because there are really few point guards in the league who can accurately deliver "ammunition" to Link in this situation.

After Link received the ball, George clearly wanted to watch out for Link's mid-range shot. He didn't worry about the basket, because with Hibbert under the basket, Link wouldn't rush in.

But Link has already stepped into the three-second zone, but he still has no intention of slowing down! This time, Link's goal is the basket!

Link broke through George to the basket, George tried hard to force Link to slow down, and the next thing is up to Hibbert!

Like a runaway train, Hibbert rushed in front of Link and slammed Link to the ground!

Even the Pacers fans exclaimed, this hit was really too hard.

Although Link was brought down, Pacers coach Frank Brown. Vogel sighed anyway. He knew that the Pacers' defense had failed!

Hibbert's movement is much slower than before, and he can't block it in the first place. And the consequence of blocking too slowly is fouling.

Sending Link to the free-throw line? It doesn't seem like a wise choice.

Link slapped the floor hard and got up from the ground. The collision just now didn't seem to affect him in the slightest, and he was still the king of Memphis who always fought until the last moment!

Judy. Seto couldn't bear to look at Link when he was knocked over, and covered his eyes. It's just that she didn't expect Link to stand up so quickly.

After so many years as the Lakers' chief physical therapist, Seto can assure that there are few players in the league who are stronger than Link.

Link stood up, and good, his breakthrough caused Hibbert to foul. The extra time has been played until now, and the tempo has been under Link's control. How so? That guy was made for this kind of desperate moment. ”

In the crucial overtime, George scored 0 points. And if Link hits a free throw, he will score 7 points in a row.

Reggie. Miller shook his head, sure enough, there was still a gap between George and Link......

Link stepped to the free-throw line, and since losing a game in last season's Finals after missing a key free throw, Link has rarely made mistakes at the free-throw line.

This time it was the same, and despite the Pacers fans trying to interfere, Link still hit two free throws steadily.

48th personal point! Before you know it, Link's stats have begun to widen the gap with George's!

In this game of stars exploding each other, it seems that the winner will be decided quickly. Who can squeeze out the stronger of the limits? Link gave the standard answer.

The Pacers are seven points behind, and they are not only passive, but they have also been beaten to the ground.

From leading by two points in the final 25 seconds to now trailing by seven points in overtime, the Pacers have experienced a lot of ups and downs.

Even if you play a game, you will be impetuous when you encounter this kind of thing, let alone a real game.

Later in the game, George lost his magical aura. His break-through and shooting efficiency began to decline, and George was seen gasping for breath on his knees again and again.

Link, on the other hand, is as steady as ever. A minute before the end of the game, Link grabbed his 10th rebound of the day and recorded his second triple-double of the season. Twenty seconds later, Link avoided Hibbert and George's block with a difficult pull-up layup and scored a career-breaking 53rd point in a single game!

Link scored 12 straight points in overtime to make the game almost out of suspense!

Watching Link make a layup with an incredible dwell lever, George braced his knee and took two big breaths.

One minute, a 10-point difference, the Pacers are more than lucky. If the first four quarters of the game, he and Link exploded each other. Then in this final overtime, George was completely unilaterally blown up.

In overtime, George and Link were 2-12. So far, George has only scored 2 points from free throws.

At the critical moment, when it was time for him to take responsibility, he was completely lost!

At the scene, the Pacers fans were very disappointed. They were very close to beating the Grizzlies, and George was very close to beating Link.

But now, everything has come to naught.

George looked up and saw Link looking at him condescendingly. For some reason, George remembered what Link said to himself as he sat on the ground at the end of the fourth quarter.

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

George shook his head, and Link did what he said he would do, and he did what he said.

A minute later, inside the Banker's Life Arena, the electronic beep sounded like a wail.

At 121-112, the Grizzlies kept the nine-point deficit until the last second.

After the game, everyone was stunned when Link and George's stats were displayed on the big screen.

Link had 53 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists, and George had 43 points, nine assists and nine rebounds. The two combined for 95 points, 19 rebounds and 13 assists, presenting fans with a wonderful star showdown!

In this most direct and cruel star duel, Link had the last laugh.

After the game, a lost George and Link hugged before returning to the players' tunnel. As he walked to the entrance of the players' tunnel, George was stopped by a reporter.

The question is simple, "What do you think of this game?" ”

George crossed his waist and looked lonely, "What else can I say?" Link is indeed the league's number one player to mess with. I've done my best, I've scored the most points of my career in a single game, but I still can't beat him. ”

didn't even let go of his good brother, and now, Link's reputation as "the number one is not easy to mess with" can be regarded as completely confirmed.
