Reverse Growth Superstar
: One hundred and eighty-nine: ready-made core
Kevin Durant is so afraid of a defensive player for the first time.
He was unstoppable in the regular season this year and won the scoring champion for the second consecutive season. Yes, two-time scoring leader, but many people forget that this is his fourth NBA season.
It is such a genius scorer, this guy who is destined to become a superstar, today was guarded by Link to doubt himself.
At this time, he took the basketball again. The eyes of the entire Thunder team fell on him, he must take responsibility, but he lacks confidence in himself.
"Link is merciless today, and I believe there will be no accidents this round. Durant's situation is very difficult, his condition today is simply too bad."
"No, it's not that Kevin is in bad form, but Link's defense today is terrible. If the Thunder does not score this goal, the Thunder will probably say goodbye to us in advance!" Hubby Brown clenched tightly. With double punches, there are only two minutes left before that historic moment.
At the beginning, he spent all his efforts to bring the Grizzlies into the playoffs. And now, he will witness the Grizzlies advance to the second round of the playoffs!
Durant borrowed screens outside the three-point line to jump directly, but at this time, whether it is physical or psychological, Durant is close to collapse.
The audience was consumed by Link, Tony Allen and Shane, Durant, even Superman, would be tired. Coupled with the fact that he had been hitting the iron countless times before, Durant's hand felt cold.
This time, Link bypassed the screen as always, but it was still a little far from Durant's shooting point.
As a result, Link gave up the idea of closing shots and switched to Battier's blindfolding method against Durant. Change the most appropriate defense method according to the most appropriate time. This is the most useful thing Link has learned from Battier.
Durant was covered so that he couldn't see anything. If he felt hot in his hands, he would still be a little sure of being disturbed like this. But at this moment, Durant's shooting difficulty is undoubtedly doubled by Link.
But he couldn't take his actions back, so he had to bite the bullet and shoot!
"No, it's crooked!" As soon as Durant shot the ball, Hubie Brown yelled. Once as an experienced old coach, Brown can probably judge his ball just by looking at a player's shot. Can you invest in it?
Sure enough, in the next second, Durant's basketball hit the side of the basket. When Durant heard the sound of a basketball colliding with the basket, his heart seemed to become as cold as steel.
Today, Durant has been counting his shots and goals to warn himself.
If he counts correctly, he made exactly 10 baskets in the second half of the game until that shot. And the number of hits is only 1!
1 of 10 shots and 6 shots from beyond the three-point line were missed. This is Durant's shooting percentage in the second half of the game! Durant didn't dare to shoot in the first half, he chose to be cautious. In the second half, when Durant made a bold move, the end was a bleak 10% shooting rate.
For Durant, this will be the shame of his career!
Durant slightly raised his head and looked at the big screen at the scene, how he hoped he had misremembered the data.
However, the facts are cruel. The data on the big screen is no different from what he has in mind. The scoring champion's performance in the second half can be called the scene of a car accident.
"Durant's shot still didn't score, which means the Thunder hasn't scored for 4 minutes! In this round of the series, we often saw the Thunder fail to score for several minutes. I have to say, Gray The defense of the Bears is no small challenge for this young guard."
Conley made a layup after receiving Randolph's pass, without being blocked by anyone. When Durant just hit the iron, the Thunder collapsed.
Conley's layup turned the score into 90 to 79, with 1 minute 59 seconds left in the game. It stands to reason that chasing 11 points in two minutes is not impossible. But just now with the morale of the Thunder, they basically have no chance of victory.
"11 points, the Grizzlies got an 11-point lead with 2 minutes left! Durant has only scored once in the second half of the game so far. Link's defensive strength seems too strong for him. Up."
As Kevin Harlan said, he looked at Link's data sheet specifically. 17 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 steals, shooting 52%.
Link didn't score much today, mainly because he put most of his energy on the defensive end. Otherwise, Durant would not fight so hard.
As for Link's scoring task, O.J. Mayo, who started the game and achieved miraculous effects today, shared part of it. Mayo has scored 16 points today, and the three-point shooting percentage and overall shooting percentage are both 50%, which is very good.
Hollins didn't breathe a sigh of relief until now. He knew that starting Mayo would definitely attract a lot of controversy. But now, he has proven that his strategy is correct.
Let Link desperately defend, and then let Mayo share part of Link's scoring task.
Although the strategy is correct, to be honest, Hollins did not expect Link to complete the task so well. In Hollins's expectation, Link only needed to make Durant's score not so easy. Scorers at the scoring king level can only be restricted under normal circumstances and cannot be completely prevented.
The results of it? Link directly defended Durant 1 of 10 in the second half and 3 of 14 in the game.
As always, Link always surprises people.
Behind Hollins, the fans in the stands were ready to move. They shouted hoarse, because after today, the city will finally be looked at.
Now the world knows that Memphis is not for nothing. When floods come, they can react quickly to avoid casualties. Most of the residents here participated in the disaster relief spontaneously, showing the bright side of the city.
And now, they are about to become the first team to commit a crime this year on the basketball court! The Grizzlies vividly demonstrated the stubbornness, tenacity and toughness of this city.
Seeing the Grizzlies fighting, all Memphis fans felt that they were fighting on the court by themselves!
In the last two minutes of the game, Durant, whose mentality had exploded, didn't make another shot. He is running back and forth on the court like a walking dead. He is already 1 in 10. What else can he do?
On the Grizzlies bench, Battier's hand was shaking slightly. He still remembers that at the press conference on the first day of his transfer to the Grizzlies, he said that his task was to help the Grizzlies win the first playoffs.
But now, they are going to the Western Conference semifinals! They are about to become one of the four strongest teams in the West!
"Sean." At this moment, Hollins turned his head and called Battier.
"Ok?"
"Enjoy, this is our golden age."
As soon as Hollins's voice fell, the electronic buzzer gushed out! But soon, the shouts from the stands completely concealed the buzzing sound!
"The game is over! It's over! 95~www.wuxiaspot.com~ The Memphis Grizzlies beat the Oklahoma City Thunder by 12 points at home for the fourth time! They succeeded, they succeeded in counterattacking! The fifth position in the Western Conference knocked down the fourth in the Western Conference, and for the first time in team history, it broke through the first round of the playoffs!
Hubby Brown stood up with excitement at the end of the game. At this time, he was not a commentator who needed to remain neutral. He is a fan, an old fan looking forward to the rise of the Grizzlies and looking forward to the gray hair!
At the end of the game, Link threw the basketball directly into the stands! Then, standing under the stands, raised his arms, shouted at all the fans, "Memphis, this is for you!"
After that, Link just enjoyed the embrace from the whole city.
"He will be a leader." Battier looked at Link who was cheering and laughed in Hollins' ear.
"I said, this is our golden age. And Link is the basis for us to start the golden age." Hollins agreed with Battier's statement. The Grizzlies have been struggling for several years. Know who to use as the core.
In the beginning, they hope that the core is Mayo. But later, it was discovered that Guy seemed more appropriate. Later, Randolph came, and he and Gasol also played extremely high chemical reactions.
But now, Hollins and Grizzlies management no longer need to struggle. A ready-made core is in front of them.
"I just hope that this summer, Chris Wallace will be ready to offer Link's offer."
"Don't worry," Battier patted Hollins on the shoulder. "Only a fool will let Link go."
"Ah!" Morey, who was sitting in Houston, sneezed inexplicably.
