1041: My Goal Is First (4/5)
Bamot was already sweating profusely, and it was the longest night he's ever had since he turned professional.
And in front of him, the No. 0 who had just fought with the "Greek Monster" yesterday seemed to be at ease.
He breathes steadily and dribbles at a steady pace.
As he lowered his center of gravity and increased the speed of his dribble, Bamot only felt nervous.
He knew that no matter what Link chose later, it would be difficult for him to resist Link's attack!
Bamot was engrossed and focused, anticipating Link's breakthrough. Link's speed up dribbling is a sign that he is about to break through!
Sure enough, in the next second, Link kicked the ground to accelerate, and the target was Bamot's right hand!
Bamot reacted immediately and took a step sideways, he had been beaten badly by Link today, but he was not a player who would give up easily.
The bottom line is that he's not a player who likes to lose.
Even if he gets together with his teammates to play cards, Bamot doesn't like to lose!
Bamot has done it to the extreme this time, and he thinks that he should guard against Link for once.
However, he couldn't have been more wrong.
After Bamot took a step sideways in the direction of Link's breakthrough, Link used an extremely quick back-to-back dribble and rushed over from the other side!
Link's second change of direction, Bamot didn't have time to react.
He knew in his head that Link had changed direction, and he had to block the past, but his body couldn't keep up at all!
Link's movements are so fast that Bamot finds it incredible.
"Nice change of hands in the back, Link passed Bamot. His brilliance is still chic and wonderful. Link hits the basket directly, DeAndrew. Jordan pounced! ”
Link shook off Bamot and lifted the basketball for a layup, while Jordan Jr. blocked in front and Bamot chased after him.
But in the face of the blockade of these two defensive giants, Link's expression was very calm.
He first held the basketball high, and after Jordan Jr. and Bamot jumped with him, Link took the basketball to his chest in the air, and then switched hands!
"Holy!" Little Jordan's eyes widened, he could change hands in the air so calmly, Link's ability to stay in the air is estimated to be not even comparable to the flying Griffin in the rookie period!
Just like that, Link dodged the block with a nice air change and managed to score the ball.
And that's just one of Link's many wonderful images today.
Jordan Jr. and Bamot both tried their best, and if it was someone else, they would definitely be able to defend this ball.
But Link ...... He always managed to score the ball with the tightest defence.
This round is simply the epitome of the Clippers' entire game today.
The Clippers have tried their best to contain Link, but to no avail.
"Link scored again, the 32nd point of the game! Doug. Coach Rivers called a timeout, and I think this time, garbage time might really be inevitable. ”
Mike. Brin said, looking at the big screen.
At this point, the third quarter was already halfway through, and the Grizzlies had extended the margin to 38 points!
After the start of the second half, the Clippers still showed no signs of turning the tide. Link's consistent and efficient performance made it difficult for them to move forward.
Two and a half quarters, 32 points. This simple statistic is enough to summarize Link's attack power today.
Of course, Link's performance today wasn't just about scoring.
In addition to his 32 points, Link has grabbed 10 rebounds and 11 assists.
In other words, after a 20-point triple-double in the half of the 14-15 season, Link scored a 30-point triple-double in only two and a half quarters!
Moreover, he became the first player in Grizzlies history to score a 30-point triple-double in two back-to-back games!
"It's offensive firepower I've never seen before, and Link easily broke down the Clippers. The Clippers are not underdogs this season, they have a 4-1 record, they have beaten the Trail Blazers and Spurs, and they won by a big score! ”
"But in front of Link, they behaved like an underdog. You know, this is still a back-to-back Link. ”
Mike. Brin and Jeff. Van Gundy sang and harmonized, and used all the praise on Link.
But now, absolutely no one would say that the two of them were kneeling and licking.
Because Link's performance really deserves all the praise.
Link stepped off the pitch and that's when he finally started to run out of breath.
Old Carter smiled, Link this guy will never show his tired side in front of his opponent.
He knew that Link was actually tired. But when he holds the ball in front of Bamot, he will definitely make Bamot mistakenly think that he is still at ease!
But then, Link didn't have to hold on.
If it was a 29-point lead at halftime, Jogger wouldn't be safe. Now that the Grizzlies are leading by 38 points with only one and a half quarters left in the game, Joggle has nothing to worry about.
Joggle couldn't imagine what the Grizzlies would do with Link's current physical condition if the score was scorching.
But because of Link's relationship, Joggle is completely free of this trouble now.
He can already embrace victory.
Link really managed to get his opponent out before he ran out of energy, so no matter how unbelievable Link may say, don't doubt it.
Because of this guy's strength, it's even more incredible!
"Now, you can get some rest, Link." Joggle crouched down in front of Link, who was panting, and patted him on the shoulder.
"It's nice that we don't have to fight the Clippers for 48 minutes." Link smiled tiredly, then leaned back in his chair.
The game most likely to give the Grizzlies a first loss?
Well...... That's it.
After this timeout, it was found that Jogger had replaced the likes of Link and Gasol, leaving only one Conley to control the situation on the field.
Of course, everyone knows that if the situation stabilizes, then it will be a matter of time before Conley is replaced.
Next, fans will face a quarter and a half of garbage time!
Seeing that the Grizzlies replaced all their main forces, Rivers began to organize a counterattack.
His team still has room to spare, and it is not completely out of hope of overtaking the score.
But now, with a whopping 38-point deficit, how many of the Clippers can still be hungry for victory?
Chris. Paul was discouraged at first, and although the season was just beginning, he knew that his Clippers career might not be long......
The gap between the Clippers and the Grizzlies is terrifying......
In the final quarter and a half of the game, the Clippers didn't launch a fierce comeback as expected. They're completely deflated balls that no matter how hard you try to knock them down, they won't bounce off.
Five minutes before the end of the game, Doug . Rivers also replaced all the main players
The Los Angeles Clippers couldn't even match the back-to-back Grizzlies.
When the electronic buzzer sounded to represent the end of the game, the score on the electronic screen was fixed at 123-88.
The Grizzlies beat the Clippers by 35 points at home, and this also set a record for the largest point margin of the season!
After the game, a Clippers reporter broke the news that there was a discordant sound in the Clippers locker room.
Paul and Griffin, along with several others, appeared to have an argument.
At any given time, the Clippers would definitely be big news.
Locker room contradictions, which is a topic that journalists and fans alike.
But this time, people didn't care if Paul got into an argument with his teammates in the locker room.
Because a sentence Link's words in the post-match press conference stole everyone's attention.
"Before today's game, you kept asking me what I thought of my ranking in the Hall of Fame pyramid. Now, I finally have the time and leisure to answer this question. ”
"Bill. Simmons was right, I don't think sixth is the highest reward for me. Sixth in an inflated ranking? What kidding, my goal is number one, and it always has been! So, with a win like today, I'm going to win a lot more! ”
In fact, Link is already very happy to be ranked sixth.
But he certainly wouldn't say that in front of others.
Link had thought that his speech would add fuel to the fire.
However, when he woke up the next day, he found that all the arguments about whether he was worthy of being sixth had been settled.
Because after the game against the Clippers, this has become an undisputed thing.
