In the Federal Express Arena, every fan cheered.

Men and women, young and old, all unleashed their passions.

Because until the fourth quarter of the game, the Grizzlies were firmly in control.

So far, the Grizzlies haven't given the Warriors any chance. The Warriors didn't play the league-leading offense or play the defense they're proud of.

From the first quarter onwards, the Grizzlies have held the situation steady until now. During this time, Curry and Thompson made several attempts to take over the game.

But the successive strikes and the inability to form a series of goals made it impossible for them to close the difference.

Both sides didn't score high today, but the Grizzlies just managed to stay ahead.

The Grizzlies' excellent defense and the Warriors' poor shooting percentage are one thing, and on the other hand, the reason why the Warriors have been unable to take the lead is also because Link has put on a real MVP-level performance!

At this time, it was the Warriors' offensive round, and "Brazilian Lightning" Leandro. Barbosa is on the ball and moving forward.

In the previous round, Barbosa used his speed to hit the basket for a layup, narrowing the gap to 11 points.

If this goal goes in again, then he can help the Warriors narrow the margin to single digits before the main lineup returns!

Barbossa is confident in this. At this time, Whiteside, who guards the Grizzlies' inner line, is certainly tall, but Barbossa believes that as long as he is fast enough, he can avoid the blockade of the monster!

The battle-hardened Brazilian waved his hand and called for Speights to come and cover.

As a center with projection ability, Spects did not dare to let him go in half a step. When he was with the Grizzlies, Spetts' shooting ability was already excellent.

Now that he has joined the shooting-focused Warriors, Speights' shooting consistency has been further improved.

In the third quarter of the game, he had already made two half-volleys due to Whiteside's negligence. As a result, now Whiteside doesn't dare to give Speights another chance to shoot.

Whiteside was moved out of the box and it was much easier for Barbossa!

He pretended to break through to the uncovered side, and when Dellavedova moved his center of gravity, the Brazilian used a very fast forward change of direction and whizzed past Speight!

Although he is no longer young, Barbossa's speed is still impressive.

Seeing that he was shaken away, Dellavedova simply bypassed the cover from behind Speight, intending to make up for the basket directly to prevent Barbossa from making a layup.

I have to say that Dellavedova is still somewhat brave and resourceful. He's positive enough, but he doesn't think so delicately on the defensive end.

Seeing that Dellavedova actually let himself go for such a large distance, Barbosa did not hesitate and chose to make a stop-and-go jump shot!

Barbosa has always been a reliable shooting guard, averaging 44% three-point shooting per game at his peak! The emergency stop shot is not a problem at all for him.

Dellavedova knew she had made a big mistake, but it was too late to block it. Unless he's lightning fast, there's no way he's going to be faster than Barbossa's shot.

Off the field Steve . Kerr has already waved his fist in advance, as long as Barbossa can narrow the gap to single digits, then it is not impossible for the Warriors to send the main lineup in the future!

It's true that Dellavedova can't be lightning fast, but there are others on the Grizzlies roster who can.

Barbossa took his shot in stride and his shot felt very good. He had a hunch that this ball would be able to go into the net safely!

But no sooner had the basketball than the Brazilian saw a black shadow leap from the side. In the air, in a volleyball game smash posture, he fanned the basketball he had just thrown out directly!

"Bang!"

The basketball made a muffled thud in the air and was catapulted into the stands like a cannonball.

Then, the guy who completed the sealing landed steadily, and the whole person bent his knees and half-squatted on the ground because of the cushioning.

The moment the man landed, Barbossa seemed to feel the wooden floor under his feet shake.

The Brazilian was completely stunned, and he will never forget the number printed on the Grizzlies jersey, that 0......

"Link, it's him again, he's once again stopping the Warriors' attempt to close the margin to single digits! Oh my God, he's really everywhere today. Barbosa had clearly shaken off Dellavedova completely, and he did get a shot. But who would have thought that Link would be able to catch up in the first place! The fifth block, which is Link's fifth block today, also means ......"

Speaking of which, Mike. Brin paused, glancing at the information in his hand. Once confirmed, he continued to yell into the microphone.

"It also means that Link has become the first player in NBA history to be able to contribute 5x5 stats in the playoffs!"

After the roar, Mike. Brin himself swallowed. Link really didn't lie, he "satisfied" the Warriors fans in this game and came up with beautiful statistics.

It's not just beautiful stats, Link simply broke a playoff stat record! And it's a very hard record to break!

5X5 data means that in a single game, a player's five statistics: points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks, each of which reaches 5 or more times.

At first glance, this may not seem like a big deal.

With more than 5 points, rebounds and assists, it is not a difficult task in the eyes of fans. Although it is difficult to make more than 5 steals and blocks in a single game, those who have done it are also a big handful.

However, if a player meets all five data requirements in a single game and exceeds 5, it is very harsh.

In fact, since the league officially introduced detailed statistics in the 85-86 season, there have only been 15 times in NBA history when a player has played 5X5 data!

Don't get me wrong, just because there have been 15 times in history doesn't mean that 15 players have done it.

Because of the legendary center of the Rockets, Hakim. Olajuwon alone accounted for six of them, and there were other players who had more than once made 5x5 stats.

In other words, there are only 8 players in history who can do this kind of thing!

From the 85-86 season to the current 14-15 season, so many years of time, so many outstanding players, but only 8 people can get 5X5 data.

And these 8 people do not include Jordan, James, Kobe, Duncan, Iverson, O'Neal, Barkley and other great superstars.

It can be seen that the difficulty coefficient is very high if you want to hit 5X5 data in a game.

And all the stars who have hit 5X5 stats before have achieved this achievement in the regular season.

Never before in the history of the playoffs has anyone been able to do something like this. Even Olajuwon, who has hit 5X5 stats six times, has never shown such an exaggerated performance in the playoffs.

Wade had 36 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks in the '06 Finals.

Howard also had 17 points, 17 rebounds, 4 assists, 4 steals and 4 blocks in Game 2 of the Finals against the Lakers that year.

But whether it's Wade or Howard, they're only close to that record at best.

But today, Link filled in all five of his data to 5 without a bad time, becoming the first person in the playoffs to hit 5X5 data in a single game!

Because this thing is very incredible, so just Mike. Brinn paused, and only after confirming that it was correct did he dare to let out a loud roar.

Even he couldn't believe that Link had actually broken this record! In the playoffs, but also in the fierce Western Conference Finals, 5X5 stats were bombarded......

Link really satisfies everyone's appetite.

Steve. After Kerr saw Barbossa's shot being flipped off, the fist he had been about to swing fell again.

Link blocked Barbosa's near-must-go shot, prevented the Warriors from closing the gap to single digits, and broke a playoff record......

It's really murderous.

Lost Kerr waved his hand and motioned for the main players to take advantage of the deadball.

But at this point, he no longer had any expectations for a comeback victory.

Seeing Green and Bogut on the court, Link pointed to the big screen at them again.

The two of them looked up and saw only this string of numbers.

28 points, 8 rebounds, 9 assists, 5 steals and 5 blocks on the line...... This series of numbers made the whole Warriors team feel hopeless.

Looking at Green and Bogut's frustrated expressions, Link walked up with his waist crossed and smiled at them.

"I warned you to be so confident."

Bogut and Green didn't respond this time, and they both knew that they couldn't turn the tide of battle today.

The game is still going on, but the first game of the Western Conference Finals of the Golden State Warriors has ended early.
