The Grizzlies weren't led by the nose today, to be exact, Link wasn't led by the nose by Leonard.

From the very beginning, he wanted to take the initiative. Just like Link, Popovich had in mind, he went to sleep on the bus and didn't mean anything. That guy is a fighter and will never stop unless he dies or is defeated by someone else!

Popovich knows Link too well, he knows this Grizzlies too well. The picture of being eliminated from the competition last season is still vivid. Even last year's champion, the Mavericks, wasted a lot of effort to get the Grizzlies in the Western Conference Finals.

They just can't beat Xiaoqiang, give up? Popovich suspects that the word isn't in the dictionary of Link and the rest of the Grizzlies.

Unfortunately, Spurs are 5-0 down. Luckily, Spurs were only 5-0 down.

Popovich continued to direct the game from the sidelines, and he didn't intend to let his players relax for a second.

Duncan was playing the shaft in the middle distance this time, trying to organize the team's attack, and by the way, Gasol Jr. was transferred out of the box.

Parker used his skillful cut-in to the basket, received a pass from Duncan's "command tower", and scored an easy layup.

That's the Spurs' offense, and going it alone is not their style. Everyone is executing strictly according to the tactics, which also makes their offense super efficient.

Parker's goal has stabilized the Spurs' morale, at least they won't be beaten 7-0 to the start. But after Parker's goal, Link pulled Conley and whispered a few words.

Hollins noticed Link's behavior, what the hell was that Link guy up to? It was just a very ordinary goal for the Spurs, and neither Parker nor Duncan were defensive targets for Link.

Even so, does Link have a countermeasure?

Leonard didn't care so much, he quickly retreated to his own half, and found that Link was completely two people compared to before the game.

During the warm-up, Link kept nagging like a nervous flank. But now, Link is extremely focused, and looks like a serious person......

Leonard doesn't know which Link is his truest side, but he'll do his best to stop that guy, just like he did in the last game.

This time, Link didn't play without the ball, but took possession from Conley as soon as he passed the half, and he wanted to fight Leonard with the ball!

Leonard hurriedly opened his big hand to cover Link's eyes, but Link didn't panic at all, but waved his hand and motioned for everyone to pull away.

Then, he leaned his back against Leonard's chest!

"Is Link going to single Leonard with his back!?" Cole yelled, if Link really did this, it would be a showdown like Mars hitting Earth!

Instead of rushing out the ball, Leonard puffed out his chest to stop Link from advancing. Seeing Leonard's center of gravity, Link immediately turned his back and broke through!

Although Link's back turn was very beautiful, Leonard still stuck to it for the first time, and Link turned his back and broke through without throwing Leonard away.

Popovich applauded Leonard proudly, it was useless for Link to deal with Leonard in such a simple and crude way!

Link suddenly slowed down halfway through, then straightened up and looked like he was about to make a pull-up jumper!

Leonard immediately pounced and raised his hand to block Link's shot.

As everyone knows, Link pressed down on his center of gravity again, and accelerated a step past Leonard, who had already jumped up to block! This is a feint to worship the Buddha, and Leonard is shaken!

Leonard's reflexes are very sensitive, but sometimes, being too sensitive is not good. Link made an easy jump shot after breaking through, and his small details on the offensive end made Leonard unguardable!

"Link hit again from mid-range and it was a textbook heads-up attempt. Today, he has scored two goals in a row on Leonard's head! Let's take a look at the slow-motion replay, oh my God, Link's gesture of just stopping to shoot is really realistic. Not to mention Leonard, even the most experienced defenders may not be able to see through it! ”

Kerr had to marvel at Link's offensive skills, and who knows how the original 3-and-D player could have become so well-rounded. If you don't pay attention, you might think it's just a normal pull-up jump shot with a back turn. But the details in it reflect Link's good basic attack.

This kind of free acceleration and deceleration and perfect rhythm are not something that anyone can play.

"Hey, Kawaii, 7 to 2. I didn't compare to you when I warmed up, now, let's get started! After the goal, Link continued to stimulate Leonard with words.

Leonard doesn't react to most trash talk and provocations, but Link has proven that Leonard does get upset as well.

So from now on, Link will continue to spit at Leonard until he gets annoyed! And disturbing the emotions of the opponent will only do good.

7-2, Spurs are still very passive. Conley focused, and he stared at Tony. Parker, and then his mind filled with what Link had just said to him.

"Force him to pass the ball low!"

Parker was as active as ever, and he played a screen with Duncan to quickly break through to the basket. Gasol Jr. had to leave the box due to Duncan's mention of high positions. Therefore, the Grizzlies' penalty area defense is bound to have a helping defense.

And with help defense, there must be gaps, this is the strategy of Spurs!

Of course, the Grizzlies can also choose not to assist in the defense, and let Conley, who was delayed by cover, go after Parker by himself. But it is not known how many points will be lost by doing so.

To put it bluntly, Popovich is putting the Grizzlies in a dilemma.

After Parker entered the restricted area, he found that the Grizzlies still helped defend. Moreover, Link also followed the defense.

"The Little Sportsman" didn't hesitate, and he pinned the spot for Leonard, who was waiting outside the three-point line. In the last game, he was shot 3 of 3, and today he dared to let Leonard go, Parker felt that Link was really too strong!

Just as Parker was about to pass the ball, Conley jumped out from the side and blocked Parker's passing path.

But this is not difficult for Parker, the Frenchman has been the main controller of the Spurs for so many years, and this difficulty is simply pediatric.

Parker's wrist flicked and turned into a ground-hitting pass, still sending the ball to Leonard!

But Parker found that Link turned around and chased Leonard the moment he passed the ball. Could it be that this is a fake defense? Link's purpose isn't just to lure him into passing!

The experienced Parker realized that something was wrong, but he couldn't get the basketball back in the way.

Leonard received the basketball, the ball was passed a little low, and he was not comfortable receiving it. But it was indeed an opportunity, and Leonard still made a decisive move!

The moment Leonard threw the ball, Link blocked the basket again. Leonard, under the double blow of poor receiving and unfavorable aiming, hit the iron again with his second three-point shot!

"Still didn't get in! Leonard had two shots from beyond the three-point line today, but neither could take them. It seems that he didn't keep the touch of the last game today. ”

"Damn, what's going on!?" Popovich secretly cursed in his heart, Leonard was still hot when he trained yesterday and today.

Why are there two opportunities in a row at this time, and they are all ridiculously crooked.

"You didn't go in again, I'm already far ahead, Kaeva!" After the defense, Link passed past Leonard and didn't forget to wink at him.

Link found through the video that Leonard's shot after receiving the low ball did not seem to be particularly stable, and during the pre-game warm-up, Link also proved his conjecture. That's why he asked Conley to force Parker to pass low.

With the double interference of having to catch the low ball and the basket being blocked, it's no wonder that Leonard, who is not so skilled at three-point shooting, can shoot.

On the offensive end, he used double feints to deceive the overreactive Leonard. On the defensive end, Link started from the details and made Leonard uncomfortable.

The combination of these two points made Leonard, who had infinite scenery in the last game, extremely embarrassed!

After Leonard struck the iron, the Grizzlies' counterattack quickly went up. Gasol Jr. won the rebound and made a long pass to Link, who hit the ground again to assist Tony who was inserted from the middle. Allen makes an easy layup. Danny. Green's defense is good, but he's not a particularly athletic player. Chasing this kind of thing, don't embarrass Danny. Green.

9 to 2, San Antonio Spurs were stopped!

Leonard waved his hand in chagrin, frowned, and walked off the court.

A lot of people don't care about his casual moves, but Popovich does.

Because under normal circumstances, Leonard would not show his emotions on the court!

Link, that guy, actually made a "robot" angry.

The villain's bad moves, sure enough, are a lot!
