1185: The offense doesn't stop so quickly

Although they were slaughtered by more than 20 points in the last game, the Grizzlies fans in the Federal Express Arena were still enthusiastic today.

Link has already assured them that they will win the championship before the due date of June 13th.

Grizzlies fans are convinced of this.

After all, all of Link's previous promises to the city have been fulfilled.

When the Grizzlies won their first championship, Link told All Memphis that this would not be the Grizzlies' last championship.

At that time, the whole world was full of ridicule, thinking that Link would shut up and say big things after picking up a bargain.

Then, the Grizzlies, a small city team, really built an incredible three-game winning dynasty.

Last season, when the Grizzlies' dynasty was ended by the Warriors, Link told all Memphis that the Grizzlies would soon get back on track.

At the time, it was said that there wasn't a dynasty team in NBA history that could come back so quickly, so Link couldn't have done it.

As a result, this year, the Grizzlies eliminated the Warriors 4-2.

Perhaps in the eyes of the media and fans in Cleveland, Link just said casually that he would win the championship before June 13.

But Memphis fans have never doubted the viability of this statement.

As long as Link says it, he'll definitely be able to do it!

Before the game began, James gathered everyone around and cheered on his teammates.

Looking at the Cavaliers' unity, Link really didn't dare to imagine that in the near future, Kelly and Irving would take the initiative to apply for a transfer.

Of course, it is not known whether Irving will do this in this history.

But in Link's past experience, this kind of thing usually doesn't deviate too much.

One by one, the Cavaliers stood confidently in front of Link, Irving, . Smith, James, Love, and Tristan. Thompson.

These five men were full of murderous eyes, and it was clear that they really wanted to win all two away games.

Maybe they'll want to be like the 2011 Dallas Mavericks, who can fight their way out of the crowd without being favored.

But they seem to have forgotten that when the Heat were killed by the Mavericks in 2011, LeBron Brown. James had the worst Finals performance of his career.

In six games, James averaged 17.8 points, 7.1 rebounds and 6.8 assists per game, shooting 47.7% from the field.

In three of those games, James scored less than 20 points, and even had a humiliating performance of only 8 points in a single game.

In none of the six games, James has scored more than 25 points. When James needed to step up at critical moments, he was also timid, averaging just 1.8 points per game in the final quarter. In other words, when the game is at its most anxious, James tends to do nothing.

Such a performance in the finals can be said to be quite miserable.

Although James is not entirely to blame for the Heat's loss of the 11 Finals, James' hip-pulling performance is indeed the main reason for the Heat's loss.

But Link won't repeat James's old path, and the Cavaliers want to upset and win the championship? Link will never say yes!

Before the game began, Wade and James hugged and reminded their old friend: "Don't be too careless, our counter-attacks tend to hurt our opponents." ”

James didn't respond, believing Wade was just bluffing.

However, as soon as it opened, Link made James break out in a cold sweat.

After Gasol took advantage of his height advantage to fight for the basketball, Conley was responsible for slowly advancing with the ball.

The Cavaliers were waiting for the battle, thinking that the Grizzlies would take the lead in fighting a wave of complex tactics to achieve a success rate.

As a result, Link received the basketball one step from the three-point line and shot it directly!

The whole offense was played simply and crudely, but it was unexpected.

James didn't expect Link to choose to shoot directly, so the interference was a step slower.

At the moment when Link shot, James also luckily thought that even if the interference was a little slower at this distance, Link might not be able to shoot.

However, in the next second, the sound of the Nets tumbling immediately jumped into James's ears.

In front of Link, there is no room for any fluke!

"Three-point hit, Link gave the Cavaliers the most powerful response as soon as he came up! In the last game, the Grizzlies lost outside the three-point line, and today, Link made a three-point shot on the first shot! ”

After Link's goal, the right hand of the shot was never lowered, and three fingers were compared.

James swallowed, he had a bad premonition.

Link, this guy, is still so vindictive!

Then, Smith also made a three-point shot with Wade's interference.

In the last game, even under defensive interference, the Cavaliers' three-point score was still a string.

But today, Smith's first shot was off target with Wade's defense.

The cheers in the Federal Express Arena immediately rose an octave, and it was clear that the iron of . meant that the Cavaliers' three-point sense of anti-sky was gone.

At the very least, they can't score goals with normal interference.

"I didn't go in, and the Cleveland Cavaliers didn't have a good hand after the opening. While it's too early to say who will shoot more three-pointers from either team, it's clear that the Grizzlies are already getting their revenge! ”

Mike. As soon as Brin finished speaking, the Grizzlies made another long-range shot and hit it.

This time, Conley broke through and distributed the ball to Link outside the three-point line on the right.

Link caught everyone's eye on the Cavaliers when he received the basketball, but he wasn't in a hurry, but calmly passed the ball to Jokic in the bottom right corner.

This time, the patient conduction left Jokic completely empty.

He calmly shot and hit the three-pointer again!

6-0, the Grizzlies are using the same method of the Cavaliers in the last game against them.

Now, Taryn. Lu Du was a little nervous. If the Grizzlies throw another three-pointer and let the Grizzlies easily open the gap, the Cavaliers will be difficult to play.

Although the Cavaliers slaughtered the Grizzlies by more than 20 points in the last game, Tyron. Lu Ke didn't float.

He knows very well that in terms of hard power, the Cavaliers are indeed slightly weaker than the Grizzlies.

If the Grizzlies pull the score, it will be difficult for the Cavaliers to catch up.

So, Taryn. Lew shouted from the sidelines, signaling everyone to stay closer to their opposing players when defending, and not to let the Grizzlies take an easy shot!

But even so, the Cavaliers still couldn't stop the Grizzlies' hot three-point feeling.

While the Grizzlies' three-point shooting today wasn't as exaggerated as the Cavaliers in the last game, it was enough to keep them in the lead.

The Cavaliers' defense didn't finally get better until late in the first quarter, and Smith's deliberate move to let Wade go to make up for others had some effect.

Wade, who is not good at long-range shooting, hit iron from beyond the three-point line for two consecutive rounds, and the Cavaliers also used these two opportunities to form a counterattack by Irving and James each.

The Cavaliers scored four straight points to narrow the gap to seven. They managed to keep the margin in single digits four minutes before the end of the first quarter.

"The Cleveland Cavaliers were tougher than anyone could have imagined, and they withstood the Grizzlies' heavy fire for the time being. Coach Joggle called a timeout, and the Grizzlies were going to start switching to rotation players. I think the Cavaliers will finally be able to take a breather. ”

Jeff. After Van Gundy finished speaking, he took a deep breath.

The Grizzlies' offensive today was so fierce that it was really suffocating.

"Can you really catch your breath? I don't think it's that simple. "Mike. Brin has a completely different view than Van Gundy, believing that the Cavaliers' nightmare is far from over.

At this time, on the Grizzlies bench, Joggle called Dinwiddie, who was on the spotlight in today's warm-up.

At the same time, Nash also stood up nervously, as if he was about to make an appearance.

"Spencer, increase the frequency of shots outside the three-point line when you get on the court, and shoot long when you have the chance! Link, you lead the team to play two more minutes and then go to rest, and use the breakthrough to tear apart the Cavaliers' defense. ”

Joggle emphasized offense as soon as he came up, as Mike did. As Brin said, the Grizzlies aren't going to stop there!

Regardless, they want to go into the second quarter with a double-digit advantage.

Link and Dinwiddie both nodded, ready to make a big move.

At this point, Nash also came to Dinwiddie's side. He has never played in a Finals as a player, so he treats his most proud student as himself.

Now, Dinwiddy Dynash will be in the Finals!

"Boy, don't panic when you get on the field. Whatever the case, the shot must not be too hasty. Just run aggressively and Link will spot you. And ......"

Nash admonished Dinwiddie a lot, and Dinwiddie nodded vigorously with a focused expression.

Soon, the electronic beep sounds, and the pause ends.

Dinwiddie was just about to play, but was grabbed by Nash.

"Anything else? Steve. ”

"Nothing, just trying to tell you...... Take advantage of your chances, boy. ”

Dinwiddie nodded and came on, and Nash smiled wryly. That guy has no idea how hard the chance to play in the finals is......

But Nash believes Dinwiddie won't let himself down.

The game restarted with Dinwiddie possessing the ball past halftime.

Nash sat back on the bench and crossed his legs.

Next, it's time to watch Link and Dinwiddie's performances.
