943: Death is coming
Link stood at the free-throw line like a grim reaper with a scythe.
All Aucklanders were dumbfounded, they couldn't believe that the 21-point gap had been filled. It's also hard to believe that in Clay. When Thompson showed a supernatural performance, the Grizzlies still stubbornly resisted until now.
What's even more unimaginable is that less than a minute ago, Klay scored 49 points. Thompson was also the game-leading scorer. But now, dozens of seconds later, he is no more.
Link scored eight points in a row, and he had already scored 50 points in this game, surpassing Clay. Thompson! This is the second time this season that Link has scored more than 50 points in a single game! And Link has to make free throws, and his points will go up! ”
Mark. Jackson felt his scalp tingle dozens of seconds before when Clay. When Thompson hit that crucial three-pointer, Mark Brown. Jackson was adamant that the Warriors would win.
At the time, no one would have thought that Link would be able to hit a three-pointer against Green's defense. can steal the basketball with an unbelievable "save" action, can play Green and Bogut in a row, and get a chance to score 2+1.
Bogut was very annoyed now, and he had been holding back a fire in his heart since he was brutally detained by Link today.
And this fire has not been vented until now.
Bogut hadn't done a single successful defense against Link throughout today.
At the last critical moment, Link was also given a 2+1.
Bogut blames himself and hates Link at the same time.
If it weren't for that number 0, it would have been a perfect match......
From the players to the commentators to the fans, everyone on the Warriors is very nervous right now.
At the same time, they are all shrouded in the fear created by Link.
Previously, everyone thought that Link would continue to be weak at a critical time. But as it turns out, when it's time to be tough, Link never slackens.
For most players, key moments are just a flash in the pan.
But for Link, weakness at critical moments was short-lived. As long as he plays normally, he can always create magic at critical moments!
In this atmosphere of fear, Link, who had adjusted his breathing, made a free throw.
How the fans in Oracle Arena wished the basketball would have been kept out of the hoop, but sadly, it backfired.
The basketball went into the net, and it didn't even touch the hoop.
111-111, the Grizzlies equalized the score for the first time in the game! Link also scored his 51st point of the game and put the magic of Klay. Thompson was crushed under him!
Steve. Kerr immediately called a timeout to lay out the final attack of the game. The rapid whistle further increased the tension on the scene.
Everyone was terrified, except Link and his teammates.
"God, you are God!" Iguodala lunged up and bumped Link into his chest, and even though he had been teammates with Link for several years, Iguodala was not immune to Link's magic.
"Link, we're going to win, right? We're going to win! "Jimmy. Butler hugged Link straight away, and the young hard-line guard felt like he was saved.
"Of course Jimmy, when we take our first lead of the game, that's when we win!" Link said, touching Butler's head.
To be trusted and admired by all...... I have to say, Link quite likes this feeling.
Now, there are 26 seconds left in the game. The answer left for the Grizzlies is very simple, do a good last defense and attack, and they can keep the first place in the West and keep the glory that belongs to Memphis.
Of course, this task is not simple. Twenty-six seconds is enough for Kerr to map out a perfect offense for the Warriors.
The Warriors' play in key moments is actually not bad at all, and they have a lot of points that can end the game. If the Grizzlies don't do a good job of defense after they go up, everything will fall short.
But the Grizzlies aren't going to be afraid of any challenge right now, at least in terms of morale, and they're no longer at a disadvantage.
Even, the Grizzlies' morale is slightly higher than the Warriors' now. After all, the wave of 9-0 just now made the grizzly bear climb up from the edge of the cliff.
Anything that doesn't kill me will make me stronger.
This is not nonsense.
This time, Jogger first laid out a defensive tactic, he signaled everyone to be strict with the man-to-man, and implemented the strategy of infinite defensive changes. In any case, make sure the Warriors players have defenders in front of them.
As for the offense, when this defense is successful, Joggle will call a timeout for a special arrangement.
The game started quickly, and the fans in the stadium felt like they were about to be overwhelmed.
It's already 66 wins, why is it so difficult to get the first place in the West......
The Warriors players looked nervous, and the Grizzlies were more relaxed in comparison.
From the moment the Warriors served the sideline, the Grizzlies put them under a lot of pressure.
It's not easy for a Warriors player to successfully get the ball out.
In the end, Green could only pass the ball hastily before the violation, and the pass was aimed at Curry.
Link lunged forward behind Curry and stabbed the basketball. But fortunately, Curry's reaction was quick enough, and he immediately ran up to control the basketball, which was able to control the ball in his hands without danger.
Subsequently, Curry began to stall for time. It's clear that the Warriors aren't going to give the Grizzlies a chance to fight back.
With 26 seconds left in the game, the cleaner the Warriors can spend their time, the safer it is.
As the clock ticked by, the Grizzlies' formation was rock solid, and there was no gap.
The longer the time is consumed, the more panicked the Warriors players become.
With 8 seconds left on the offensive clock, Curry moved! At the same time, Clay. Thompson followed suit and began to move off the ball.
He first moved from the right to the left, during which Draymond . Green also set up an off-ball screen for Thompson.
But at the moment when Butler and Green were entangled, Thompson immediately ran back and returned to the right three-point line!
Clay. Thompson is definitely a top-tier scorer off the ball, not just because of his accurate shooting, but also because of his superb off-ball movement.
His counterrun was enough to keep him off most of his opponents.
Seeing this, Curry passed the ball to Thompson in time. Today, Kerr didn't let Curry and Link go head-to-head. Therefore, the last attack was arranged for Thompson, who is in super state today!
Thompson received the basketball, thinking it was an opportunity to seal his throat with a sword. But before he could aim at the basket, he was entangled by Butler!
"Jimmy. Butler immediately rushed back, and his defense was leaky! He sealed Thompson, and Thompson could only take a step back and force his hand in the interference! ”
Mark on the commentary platform. As soon as Jackson's words fell, the basketball hit the edge of the basket with a "bang".
Clay. Thompson misses a shot in the last minute!
The light of the Buddha failed to continue to shine, and Thompson failed to continue his miracle.
Mark. Gasol struggled to grab a defensive rebound under Bogut's dirty pull, while Dave Brown. Joggle called for a halt to the game.
The Grizzlies defend successfully!
"No ......" Steve. Cole stumbled to the bench.
Although the two sides are tied now, and the time left for the Grizzlies is only 1.8 seconds.
But Kerr is well aware that this is still not safe for the Warriors. Because the killer on the Grizzlies' side is better than Clay. Thompson is more cold-blooded!
Link walks off the pitch and the live camera gives him a close-up.
Now, the initiative is all in the hands of the Grizzlies and Link.
The Grizzlies' last 20-second timeout was the hardest 20 seconds for Warriors fans.
Those 20 seconds were a long time, because every second, they lived in fear.
By the time the electronic beep sounded and the Grizzlies players replayed, the entire Oracle Arena fell silent.
They know that the best killer in the world is coming to punish them!
Gianna sat on the sidelines, not daring to come out. And the man next to her had a faint smile on his face.
It was a perfect match for him.
Link looked at the frightened expressions of the Warriors fans and even some of the Warriors players, and felt very proud.
The fear of the enemy seems to be Link's food. The more frightened they are, the more excited Link becomes.
Link stepped onto the court, looked at Green with a solemn face beside him, and couldn't help but laugh.
"Hey, you know what? It's funny how scared you look. ”
With that, the whistle blew, and Link used a counterrun to get rid of Green and receive Gasol's delicate sideline pass.
1.8 seconds, in most people's minds, means catching the ball and getting a hand. But in Link's opinion, that means there's still time to dribble!
Even if it's only 1.8 seconds, Link is still unhurried, this is the big heart!
After receiving the basketball on the right side of the three-point line, Link dribbled a step and then floated straight to the shot.
While drifting, Link's body also leaned back extremely, which made Green unable to block Link's shooting at all.
When Kobe Bryant saw this scene on the court, it was like a world away.
He closed his eyes, and then he heard the wonderful voice.
"Brush!"
"Beep~~~~~~"
Time runs out, and the basketball goes into the net.
The dagger that Link clenched in his hand was now inserted into the warrior's chest.
