George, who had high expectations, had problems in the first two rounds of the bout.

On the offensive end, he was prevented by Link and made an active mistake. On the defensive end, he was inexplicably stunned in place, watching Link make an easy layup.

George's performance in the first two rounds clearly did not meet everyone's expectations. However, the game has only just begun, and the fans are still patient with George.

Of course, Reggie. Miller knew that George hadn't just been frozen because he was "inexplicable." Link's kind of breakthrough is nothing remarkable at first glance. That kind of action is neither like Aaron. Iverson and Kelly. Owen is as fancy, but not as Michael. Jordan was amazing. Even visually, it's not as good as James smashing into defenders.

But it is the kind of breakthrough that seems to be ordinary, but in fact it hides a murderous opportunity! Unless you study slow motion or have experienced it yourself, it's hard to appreciate the horror of that kind of change of direction.

Miller's heart was already in his throat now, he had just blown George before the game, and he didn't want to be slapped hard by Link.

Speaking of which, Miller remembers the last time Link beat Durant, and he already felt that way through the break. Could it be that Link has already changed his breakthrough style since that time?

But how is this possible? In previous seasons, or even before this season's All-Star break, Link's breakaway was not like this.

How can a player suddenly change his breaking style in the middle of the season? Moreover, the mastery is still so perfect.

Miller couldn't figure it out, maybe a player of Link's level was beyond his comprehension.

Now Miller just wants George to withstand the pressure and put in the performance he expects.

In the Pacers' second offense, George is no longer as confident as he was just now.

Just one offense and one defense, George smelled danger.

He was still thinking about Link's breakthrough just now, and he was still thinking about what had just happened. He has been friends with Link since college and has been practicing together a lot.

But never before has Link's breakthrough been anything like it had just been.

Distraught, George made a few triple moves before taking the initiative to hand the ball to David. West.

He told himself that he couldn't rush now, or he would be completely caught up in Link's rhythm.

West took the offensive load and broke the Pacers' scoring drought with a soft jumper from 17 feet out.

A 17-foot assassin who lives up to his name. Randolph couldn't do anything about it, David. West's danger factor is inversely proportional to his unassuming appearance.

The Pacers scored, they equalized, and David Brown. West, as the true spiritual leader of this team, told the fans and teammates with his practical actions, "It's all right, we're OK." ”

But Pacers fans weren't satisfied, because Lillard's loss two days ago had taught the Pacers a truth — to beat the Grizzlies, they had to step over Link's corpse.

Whether you beat Conley, Randolph, Iguodala or Tony. Allen and the others are useless, and the only way to defeat the Grizzlies is to defeat Link!

Even if West blew up the obese Randolph today, it wouldn't necessarily work, because Link would definitely be able to get back all the points he had lost.

Can George beat Link? Pacers fans are still very sure.

But Pacers fans haven't reacted yet, and George has been defended by Link for the second round in a row! Although he didn't make a shot or make a mistake just now, in fact, George gave the ball to West because he was defended and didn't have a chance.

George was very nervous as he watched Link approach him again. He was afraid that Link would use the same action against him, and he didn't know anything about the action just now, and he didn't know how to prevent it.

Link did catch the ball, and he was even more confident than he had just been!

Link certainly knows that George is the Pacers' most important scoring point, and as long as he destroys George, this game is equivalent to winning half of the game.

So, Link quickly put the plan of "destroying George" on the agenda.

Instead of dumbling from beyond the three-point line this time, Link handed the ball back to Conley and motioned for his All-Star teammates to re-pass the ball to him in the low post.

Link ran to the left mid-range position and the others gave Linkla as much as they could.

George knew that Link was going to beat him in the back this time, at least this time, Link didn't do anything out of the ordinary.

The two battled like sumo wrestlers in the low post from mid-range, and Link eventually extended his right arm in a fierce battle to receive a comfortable feed from Conley.

Roy. Hibbert immediately returned to the basket, ready to defend Link who turned and cut inside at any time. While the others followed closely behind their opponents, they all knew how accurate Link's passing was.

Link's success in receiving basketballs near the low post has already posed a huge threat to the Pacers' defense.

After turning around for a jumper? Turning over and breaking through? Or with a wave of his arm, he handed the ball to Iguodala who cut out.

Link has too many options, and he's capable enough to make every one a reality.

In an instant, Link had already made a decision. He suddenly slumped his shoulders to the bottom line and half-turned. The arc was so large that George couldn't help but take a step sideways. At the same time, it also made Hibbert, who was squatting under the basket, feel a lot of pressure.

Link is about to turn around and break through along the baseline!

But George had barely taken a step sideways when Link suddenly turned his body back in the opposite direction. He jumped back in style and threw a jumper in George's unprepared block.

The reflexive back-to-back jumper after the bouncy is not a new move for Link.

He once learned back-to-back offense from Kobe Bryant, and also inherited Hill's strong back-to-back ability. Before Link could fly away, he relied on his superb back-to-back offensive skills to make countless League giants crazy.

But even then, even though it was Link's usual move, George was shaken out of a lot of space.

Because according to Link's previous habits, his turn just now should be to break through. If it was just a feint, Link's turn arc wouldn't be that big. If the turn arc is too big, Link can't quickly turn back in the opposite direction to shoot.

Therefore, George just moved sideways, ready to block Link's breakthrough.

But this time, Link once again shattered George's perception of himself.

He turned quickly, faster than before. His back-to-back skills seem like a combination of Kobe, Hill and Jordan, and you have no idea what he's going to do next.

Watching Link shoot with ease, George's heart was already half cold. In the next second, the sound of the Nets tumbling sounded, and Link hit continuously!

A beautiful step-back jumper, and Link's feint shook George away again. George has to get into the groove quickly, and when Link makes a big move, it's even harder to contain him! Miller's partner thought it was just a matter of form.

But Miller can assure you that George must have done his best! And just now, that was already the result of George's best efforts to defend!

George was in a complete panic, and the fight was completely different from what he expected from the start.

After a few rounds of fighting Link, he felt ...... It feels like Link has gone up another level!

The last time the two sides met, the reason why George and Link were able to blow each other up was mainly because George was full of confidence from beginning to end. He wasn't afraid of Link's offense and defense, he just wanted to give it a go.

But this time, George's confidence has taken a serious hit. The prerequisite for him and Link to blow up each other has been erased by Link.

After the first quarter, George struggled harder.

On the offensive end, he missed again and again under Link's tight defense. On the defensive end, Link scored 6 points in a row after the start!

Link saw through George's expression, and the guy's handsome face was less sunny and calm, and a little more panicked.

That's when Link knew that he was going to eat him today!

In a game, even if you are really panicked, you can't let your opponent know. Otherwise, you'll be greeted with a harder blow!

At the 9:35 mark of the first quarter, a foul by Stephenson on Iguodala sent the game to a dead-ball state.

Frank. Vogel and Dave. Joggle made substitutions at the same time, replacing his star of the house and giving them a breather before the second quarter.

Grizzly bear with Jimmy. Butler replaces Link, while the Pacers use 10-year Evan Brown. Turner replaced the No. 10 pick Paul for 10 years. George.

The list of those years has now become a substitute for the No. 10 show, and people are lamenting the impermanence of the world. At the same time, I also regret George's poor performance today.

So far, George has only scored 2 points on 1-of-5 shooting from Link's head, which is very inefficient. And Link shot 4 of 5 from George's head, scoring 11 points in a single quarter, playing extremely strong!

With George playing poorly, the Pacers are now also nine points behind the Grizzlies. Iguodala will make free throws and the margin will be in double digits.

George, who was expected by everyone to cause trouble for Link before the game, was completely blown up by Link at this time!

Reggie. Miller was speechless, and the Pacers fans were lifeless. They could only watch as Link destroyed the California boy bit by bit, crushing their hopes.

Two days ago, the Trail Blazers were one step away from victory. People originally thought that Paul. George was able to fill that gap.

But now, how far is that step? No one knows about it anymore.
