Reverse Growth Superstar
: 343: Iconic Superstar
Dior is very tired, his huge weight allows him to bear the impact of the Grizzlies players, but it also makes him full of burdens.
Popovich is already considering whether to use Split to replace Dior, of course, he is also determined to let Dior lose weight. The figure of that guy doesn't look like a professional player at all.
But the Grizzlies won't wait for Dior to recover before launching an offense. Before Dior could catch his breath, he saw Link coming in with the ball.
Leonard tried to block next to Link, but Link did not slow down and still firmly wanted to hit the basket.
Dior took a deep breath, preparing to collide head-on with Link. However, just when Link was about to violently collide with the "French five flowers", he passed the ball to his side.
"Oops!" Dior wanted to immediately turn around and chase, but he couldn't lift his legs and feet.
Now, the only thing Dior can move up and down is his neck. He turned his head and looked at the **** bear Randolph, who was emptied by himself, with a desperate face.
Randolph made a mid-range open jumper and the basketball cleared into the net. Dior wanted to block Link, who had completely dominated the game in the last five minutes, but he missed the other.
After Randolph scored the goal, the game was interrupted again. Popovich called a timeout, he must call a timeout. Because of Randolph's mid-range, the Grizzlies lead the Spurs by 11 points! And five minutes ago, the two teams were still tied!
Now, the game is over with only 32 seconds left. This timeout is the Spurs' last chance.
Of course, the fans don't care what tactics Popovich will deploy. All they know is that Link's assist number has also reached 10 after that beautiful pass on the ground just now!
25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists. This is Link's first playoff triple-double in his career!
"This is a milestone night for Link, with 25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists! He became the first player in the Grizzlies history to score a triple-double in the playoffs! Link this whole He has broken various team history records every year. At the end of the regular season, he had just become the player with the most triple-doubles in a single season in Grizzlies history. Now, he has broken another record. Link's Existence allows the Grizzlies to fill many gaps in team history!"
With the excitement of Hubby Brown's shouts, the fans all cheered for Link. It can be said that the loud cheers have even affected the tactical arrangement of the Spurs.
Popovich must now yell in the player's ear to ensure that the player can barely hear what he is saying.
On the Grizzlies side, players and coaches are embracing Link, celebrating that he has won another team history record.
The Grizzlies haven't played a few playoff games since the establishment of the team, so all kinds of records are blank. It can be said that Link has almost become the first historical character of the Grizzlies. In just two seasons, Link broke numerous records in team history.
When the game was about to end, T.NT TV again put the data of Dior and Link on the bottom of the screen for comparison.
Dior's stats have hardly changed from five minutes ago. They are still 16 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds. The only thing that has changed is one more turnover and a lower shooting rate.
And Link, with 25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists, is a significant improvement from five minutes ago. Compared with Dior, it did get away with it.
Now, no one will say that Dior's performance is as good as Link.
After Popovich finished the tactics, he felt hot and sore. The enthusiastic fans of Memphis have turned this place into a large-scale dancing scene, and communication can only rely on shouting.
The old man looked up at the auditorium behind him and found that most of the fans were holding Link's head or slogans related to him. The fans wearing the Grizzlies No. 0 jersey accounted for at least one-third of the entire arena!
From that day in Memphis, Popovich felt that the city had been occupied by Link. In the past, even when Pau Gasol was still in Memphis, the Grizzlies did not have a leader of this level.
And now... Popovich thinks Link may become the first iconic superstar in the history of the Grizzlies. Of course, it is also very likely to be the greatest...
What is an iconic superstar? Just like "Magic" is to the Lakers, Olajuwon is to the Rockets, and Duncan is to the Spurs!
If Link continues to be so crazy, 10 years later, when the Memphis Grizzlies are mentioned, the first thing people think of is Link.
"No," Popovich said to himself and shook his head. "Maybe it won't take 10 years!"
In the last 30 seconds, the Spurs are still chasing points resolutely. Duncan's classic 45° board shot seemed to be hopeful to Spurs fans, but the fast beating numbers on the timer were telling them, "Don't be foolish."
11 minutes in 32 seconds? It's hard, it's too hard. The Spurs have experienced a dream of chasing 13 points in 35 seconds, but unfortunately, even that time, the Spurs were the one killed.
When Conley, who was tactically fouled, made two free throws on the free throw line and only 1.3 seconds left in the game, Popovich lowered his head and smashed his tactical board.
, The San Antonio Spurs lost 8 points. With his triple-double performance that broke the record of team history, Link helped the Grizzlies reverse the series' total score to 2-1 when they were 1-0 behind!
"A great victory. The Memphis Grizzlies are unbeaten at home in the playoffs! Burris Dior once wanted to dominate the game. But Link, who was stronger than him, stepped forward and stole the victory from him. Dior is a player who can make the team better, and Link is a player who can end the game! Cheers, the Memphis Grizzlies will continue to advance in the series!"
The Spurs players reluctantly walked off the court one by one, they were so close to the victory, but in the end their fantasy broke.
At critical moments, Link can always play an unstoppable performance. In the last game, he personally destroyed Leonard. Today, I told Dior what is comprehensive to the extreme.
Duncan felt that he was unlucky. Randolph was out of luck this year, but Link rose again.
The Spurs were caught up in such incidents of hitting the gun.
Duncan scored 22 points, 3 assists and 5 rebounds.
But it's useless. If you want to defeat the Grizzlies, it's useless to blast Randolph. Someone has to defeat Link. At present, Popovich’s two attempts to defeat Link have failed...
After the game, Link, who won the playoff triple-double, was sought after by the media.
Starting with 26 points, 11 assists and 12 rebounds against the Celtics on March 23 last year, to 25 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists today. Link went from his first triple-double to his first playoff triple-double in just one season.
From Randolph's deputy to the absolute core of the Grizzlies, it took only one season.
"Penny" Hardaway has always believed that the playoffs are the stage to test the true level of a player. The regular season is useless. How well you play in the playoffs can tell you what kind of player you are.
After this game, Hardaway expressed his love for Link to his partner and future Grizzlies boss Robert Pera.
"I underestimated him before. This kid is fully capable of serving as the cornerstone of the team!"
"Hahaha, that's right. So the first thing we have to do this offseason is to establish Link's core position!" Robert Pera laughed happily, as if he was better than a triple-double. Link himself is happy.
"Establish a core position? He is already the core, man."
"No, if Rudy Gay is here, Link won't be able to enjoy the real core treatment for the rest of his life. What we need are players who can assist Link, not players who can compete with him. Next season, Gay It's time to return. We can never stop him from playing, unless..."
Hardaway shook his head, the young boss, really fast.
