Reverse Growth Superstar

: One hundred and seventy-seven: 1 moment of history

Shane Battier is on the sidelines, with Grizzlies teammates beside him. Of course, compared with ten years ago, the staffing of the Grizzlies has changed dramatically.

Gasol is still there, just becoming his brother Mark. Randolph went forward bravely, and the Grizzlies made each other.

But in Battier's view, Link is the key to the Grizzlies.

Everyone stood up, hooked each other's shoulders, and stared at the court intently.

On the court, Mike Conley's advancement made the Thunder feel desperate. The Grizzlies players on the sidelines gritted their teeth one by one, looking at the arena with expectation-the Grizzlies are about to usher in their first playoff victory in team history!

"Mike Conley stopped outside the three-point line. Now there are only 2 minutes left before the end of the game, and the Grizzlies are leading the Thunder by 12 points. He doesn't need to worry, Conley wants to use up the last 24 seconds of offensive time! "Kevin Harlan looked around, and the Chesapeake Energy Arena has become lifeless.

Since the second quarter of the game, Randolph and Link worked together to widen the point difference to 11 points, and the Thunder have been passive until now. The fans of the Thunder have been repressed until now.

The performances of Westbrook and James Harden were unsatisfactory, the former scored a lot, but the shooting rate was too low. The latter made only 2 of 6 shots under Link's defense and only 5 points were accounted for, obviously not fulfilling the responsibility of a sixth man.

Among them, Westbrook is the main reason why the Thunder are now in danger. His irrational shots and gambling defenses made the Thunder extremely passive.

If it weren't for Durant's scoring king to support the scene, the points difference might be even greater.

Westbrook was a little anxious, he was not reconciled to lose the game like this, because he had a chance to become the protagonist today.

In the first quarter, he scored 10 points in 7-for-5 single quarters. At that time, Westbrook absolutely thought it would be his night.

But in the second quarter, he was 1 in 5 and 1 in 3 in the third quarter. Now in the fourth quarter, he is 2 of 7 and the efficiency is still not high.

Westbrook hopes that he can quickly get back to the state in the first quarter and be able to reverse the situation. So, this guy dashed suddenly and took the risk of stealing!

"Don't!" Thunder coach Scott Brooks yelled out of the court, but it was too late. Westbrook rushed forward like Conley, reaching for the ball.

In the NBA, the most taboo is actually gambling steals. If it can be snatched, it will naturally be a huge return, and it can directly form a fast break.

But if it fails, the defensive side is equivalent to directly giving the offensive space.

Conley's reaction was very sensitive. When Westbrook sprinted over, he pulled the ball to the right in a large arc, avoided Westbrook's steal, and then broke straight!

"Westbrook's gambling steal failed again. He was too uncomfortable. Russell should not be so irritable when facing a mature guard like Mike Conley! This is the biggest disadvantage of the Thunder. They are too young and they lack experience. !"

After Conley broke through, Harden immediately came over to make up the defense. Conley looked straight ahead, but his wrist hit the ball to the right to pass, not watching people pass the ball!

"It's Link, he was vacated by Harden! Link made a mid-range shot. If this goal is made, the Thunder will be in big trouble!"

As soon as Kevin Harlan's voice fell, basketball hit the net. His CIC is so stable that Oklahoma City fans are terrified, and Link looks like an infallible CIC machine to them!

Battier off the court smiled, he found that he liked this kid more and more.

"The goal was scored, and Link widened the point difference to 14 when there was only one minute left in the game! The game is losing suspense, and the Thunder has one foot hanging over the cliff!" Jeff Van Gundy With that, he looked down at Link's data sheet today.

With 20 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists, Link scored 20+ points in the first game of the playoffs, the highest of all rookies in the 2009 season!

Speaking of, how many of the 2009 rookies participated in the playoffs? High-profile future superstars such as Griffin, Wall, and Cousins ​​have already begun their vacations.

And those rookies who are fortunate enough to have participated in the playoffs, the performance can not be compared with Link. In the Sixers' playoff game against the Heat, Evan Turner played only 5 minutes in garbage time and only scored 2 points.

And Link’s good friend Paul George got the chance to start the game in the Pacers vs. Bulls series, but in the 23 minutes of the game, George only took 2 shots and only 2 points were accounted for, saying that he was completely changed. Little transparency is not an exaggeration.

Jeff Van Gundy feels a little unbelievable. The guy who entered the NBA as a loser in the middle of the season has become the most suitable rookie for the playoffs this year. His status in the Grizzlies is not just a rookie. It can be said that Link plays a huge role in the Grizzlies system.

Without him, the Grizzlies' combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. Van Gundy shook his head. Link may become the biggest draft jewel in NBA history.

The moment Link scored, the Grizzlies players on the side of the court jumped. Battier gritted his teeth, and 10 years have passed since he joined the Grizzlies. In 10 years, his biggest regret is that he never helped the Grizzlies win a game in the playoffs.

But now, all this is almost achieved! Battier is very fortunate to be able to return in the most glorious period of the Grizzlies!

Link did not slack off after scoring a goal. He knew that he had to persist in the playoffs until the end to know who was the winner. Today Link didn't make much shots in the third quarter, but once shots were almost fatal. Because of his obsession to win, he is not allowed to make any mistakes.

"The Thunder must make this offense, otherwise the situation will be too difficult for them! The point difference has been widened to 14 points. If the Thunder do not want to lose the home court, they must make no mistakes from now on!"

"Never said, Jeff. But don't forget, the Thunder are a very young team, from the team to the coach to the players. They are all very young. For young teams, making mistakes is almost inevitable. thing!"

As soon as Kevin Harlan finished speaking, the Thunder made a mistake. After a simple pick-and-roll with Ibaka from outside the three-point line, the Tiehan Westbrook made a direct three-pointer!

Again! Westbrook made the decision to pit his teammates.

It can be seen that Westbrook wants to use goals to make up for the mistakes just made on the defensive end. But this tough guy often makes bigger mistakes because of this.

Durant was stunned. At the critical moment, how could he not catch the ball? Who is the league scoring leader this season? Durant, if he remembers correctly, should be himself, not Westbrook.

Westbrook's three-point field goal percentage this season has been greatly improved compared to last season, from 22.1% to 33.0%. But if you think that Westbrook has really become accurate in three-pointers, you are quite wrong. This guy's three-pointers are extremely unstable, and his shots have never been reliable.

Sure enough, Westbrook's rush shot finally ended in iron. Randolph grabbed his 13th rebound today and then handed the ball to Conley. Scott Brooks swallowed. He knew that this game was almost impossible to move back.

"Westbrook used two consecutive mistakes and ruined the opportunity for the Thunder to comeback. However, this is the price of youth." Mike Brin finished, glanced at the Grizzlies bench.

The celebration later may be quite lively. Even though, no one here will support them.

But speaking of it, Link is also a young man, but he almost made no mistakes today. Westbrook, young excuses cannot last a lifetime.

In the last minute of the game, Link was a little absent-minded. He just wants the game to end soon, he can't wait to embrace the victory of the game.

If this game is won, the Grizzlies, Link, Conley, Gasol and many others will all have their first victory in the playoffs! Of course, this will also be the beginning of their offense!

The last minute was almost the longest minute Link felt. The Thunder began to use foul tactics, so the game was repeatedly interrupted, and time was forced to stop the watch again and again.

Link could see the desperate expressions of the Thunder fans in the stands, but he enjoyed it very much. The big villain is what brings despair to people!

In the end, when Ibaka fouled Randolph and the latter made two free throws to keep the point difference at 14 points, Scott Brooks used his last timeout. But everyone is clear that the purpose of this timeout is not to lay out a strategy, but to announce the arrival of garbage time!

In the last 12 seconds of the game, the Oklahoma City Thunder raised the white flag!

The Thunder kicked off, but Westbrook was no longer attacking. After controlling the ball for half the time, he stopped in place. The rest of the Thunder did not move. They have fully accepted the fact that they lost the game. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

Five seconds before the end of the game, Westbrook put the ball on the ground, and the Thunder players started walking towards the player tunnel before the end of the game. The Grizzlies players raised their arms one by one, celebrating their victory in this arena without cheers!

"Beep~~~~~" The electronic buzzer finally sounded, and Shane Battier was the first to rush into the court from the bench!

In the whole game, Shane Battier scored 10 points on 4 of 5 shots. This kind of data is not about the game. But his two key goals in the Thunder counterattack have stabilized the youngsters of the Grizzlies.

Ten years of waiting, finally waiting for this moment. After Battier rushed onto the court, Link was the first to embrace Link. Link is not the most amazing in statistics today. Randolph's 34 points and 13 rebounds and Durant's 33 points and 11 rebounds are the most terrifying today. Two big data.

But Battier believes that the appearance of Link is likely to completely change the fate of the Grizzlies. From now on, winning in the playoffs will become the norm for the Grizzlies.

"This is a great victory. The Grizzlies let the Thunder lose a home court and counterattack fourth place as fifth. Most importantly, these players brought the Grizzlies the first place in team history. A playoff victory! Their names will be remembered forever in the history of the Memphis Grizzlies, and they may open up a new era for the Grizzlies!"

The "very wicked" villain defeated the bright and stalwart "Prince" and ran wild on his turf.

This "bad bear" that made all heroes fall into the sand will continue to wreak havoc in the playoffs!

Link clenched his fists and waved his arms towards the Thunder stand. He believes that the first victory in the playoffs is just the beginning.
