Link sat on the sidelines, behind him, and the fans collectively shouted the word "defensive".

At this point, it's the Grizzlies' defensive round. Mark. Gasol has become the most high-profile player.

"Boss, am I still on?" Seeing this, Link couldn't help but tilt his head and talk to Stevens.

Stevens looked up at the big screen, there were five minutes left before the end of the game, but the Grizzlies had an 18-point lead......

The Clippers without Paul are being mistreated today. On the offensive end, the Clippers don't have a consistent point. Griffin struggled today, and after no one fed him, Griffin was inefficient on his individual ability and Randolph singles. Now in the fourth quarter, the score has not yet reached a double-double.

Two years ago, as the darling of Los Angeles, the gap between him and Link has been widened.

The Clippers offense today is all thanks to Crawford and Matt on the bench. Barnes, these two turned into bench bandits today, which didn't let the Clippers lose by 20 points.

Before the game began, most people felt that the Clippers would be able to fight the Grizzlies without Paul. After all, they're one of the best teams in the league.

However, it turns out that without Paul's Clippers, only the Grizzlies are ravaged.

The Grizzlies are so strong that they can't just drag out a team that can be five or five with them.

So, Stevens only replied to Link, "If this attack on the Clippers fails again, and we fight back, I don't think you will have to play today." ”

Link nodded, leaning back on the bench. Also, if this attack on the Clippers fails and the Grizzlies score again, the gap will go to 20 points.

With a five-minute lead of 20 points, there is really no need to play again.

So, everything depends on this offense and defense. Mark. Gasol became a key figure in deciding whether the game would end early.

On the court at this point, the Clippers' super sixth man, Jamal. Crawford made a butterfly walk from beyond the three-point line and shook Nick. Yang was very irritable.

Which one he hated the most was showing off the dribble in front of him, as if he was deliberately showing off. So, if you force yourself, you will stretch out your hand to break.

Link shook his head, Crawford was waiting for you to reach out.

Sure enough, Nick. As soon as Yang reached out to steal, Crawford immediately pulled the ball to the left and accelerated the breakthrough! Yang Shaoxia's defense is really very inconsistent with the temperament of the Grizzlies.

Crawford managed to break through, and he was quick to sprint. After all, it's a singles, and these things are really top-notch.

After getting inside, Crawford raised his hand to make a layup. If this goal is scored, the difference will be 16 points. Although the gap is still very large, at least there is still a fight to be made.

Even as Crawford looked nervously around, the shadow he feared most appeared.

I saw little Gasol rushing from the side with his teeth and claws, like a mad beast. Crawford tried to dodge the block with a lever, but before he could do so, the basketball in his hand was fanned away by Gasol!

"The eighth, O God! Mark. Gasol made his eighth block of the game! At the same time, it also broke the record for the highest block in a single game so far in his career! ”

Accompanied by Hubbi. Brown shouted, and the whole stands erupted. And Link, who was on the bench, couldn't help but make an exaggerated expression.

Behind Link, Randolph with one hand on Link's shoulder and the other hand covering his mouth, and beside him, Iguodala was smiling brightly. In front of him, there was a clapping Conley. Link stands in the middle, mouth in an "O" shape.

Stevens glanced at the living treasures next to him and smiled with satisfaction. This picture is really a bit like the Los Angeles Lakers bench in its heyday......

The Grizzlies' locker room vibe, it's like a family. Even if it's celebrating from the bench, the picture can be so harmonious.

Gasol turned into a complete beast today, and before the game, he was questioned by countless media outlets, and was challenged by Jordan Jr., who ranked fourth.

They all thought that this elegant-looking Spaniard was easy to bully, but Gasol used today's performance to tell the world, "The Grizzlies have no bad breeds!" ”

Don't you just think my data is not good-looking? Then I'll give you the data!

So today, Gasol ran at all costs on the defensive end, actively jumping and blocking. Whenever he had the chance, he would play basketball as if it were volleyball. Whenever he has the opportunity, he has to dig the ball.

Then, it became the current situation. With eight blocks and three steals, Gasol allowed Jordan Jr. to score only four points and became a nightmare for every Clippers player.

Stronger than Jamal. Crawford, a "giant nemesis", was just frightened by the big white bear that rushed out.

The basketball that was fanned out by Gasol fell into the hands of Vasquis, and the Venezuelan people pushed forward steadily, without hurrying.

Seeing that it was Vasquith who was in control of the ball, Link was relieved. This unassuming South American defender is very cunning, he doesn't do anything superfluous, he rarely makes mistakes. Once shot, it is fatal.

Vasquith saw that Bledsoe's defense was a little loose, so he suddenly accelerated to break through! This time, the Clippers' defense was completely messed up.

Little Jordan has been beaten up today, 8 blocks, 3 steals and 10 rebounds over there, and Jordan Jr.'s 3 blocks and 7 rebounds are really not enough to watch.

But seeing Vasquith rushing in, Jordan Jr. still wanted to save a little face. But Link had just said that Vasquith would be fatal once he made a move.

After attracting Jordan Jr.'s defense, Vasquiz passed the ball behind his back, and the pass was very stealthy. Jordan Jr. was ready to jump and block, only to find that the basketball was no longer in the hands of South American guards.

So who was the ball passed to? Mark running up from behind. Gasol!

Because Vasquis's pass was very secretive, Gasol was not hindered in any way, and after receiving the ball, he took two big steps and held the basketball high to dunk.

By the time Jordan Jr. turned around, it was too late.

Gasol split the buckle with one hand, and little Jordan could only stand on the sidelines.

Offense and defense, Gasol allowed the Grizzlies to stretch the margin to 20 points in less than five minutes in the final game. 18 points, 10 rebounds, 8 blocks, 3 steals and 4 assists. Gasol showed the Grizzlies' power at the No. 5 position today!

"Looks like you don't have to play." Stevens spread his hand at Link, and the game was already over early.

Link shrugged, he was happy to be idle.

Today, although Link scored 21 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, in the end, Gasol was selected as the best player of the game.

This is also a rare time, after the Grizzlies win, the best game of the game is not Link. 93-74, the Grizzlies won their fifth game in eight days and six games.

Won 5 out of 6 games, won against the most important opponent, Spurs, and no one was injured yet. The Grizzlies' January Devil's Race has come to a successful end!

In an interview after the game, Link did not shy away from using praise in front of the camera to his good brother Gasol, "I said before the game that Mark should not be ranked second on the best defensive player prediction list, he should be directly ranked first." If you had to say anything, he's the best defensive player. ”

Hubi. Brown finished his work in a cheerful atmosphere, and after the game, Brown chatted with his assistant as he watched the arena become less and less crowded.

"Mark. Gasol's performance is amazing, but in reality, the Grizzlies still have a lot of players like him. Zach, Conley, Andrew, Tony, Nick...... They are all strong players, but because they are covered by Link's light, it will give people the illusion that 'the Grizzlies are not very good except for Link'. The Grizzlies have enough strength this year to challenge for the league's top honors. Look at Gasol's performance today and you know I'm not kidding. The Grizzlies are not a multi-giant team, but the Grizzlies players, every single one of them can play! ”

The 80-year-old man has been commentating on the city's games for many years, but this time, he feels that his dream may be coming true.

The Memphis Grizzlies are now the real championship candidates!
