On April 25, 2015, at the New Orleans Arena, 18,000 fans cheered for their players.

On the court, Link and Anthony. Davis fell to the ground and fought for a floor ball.

To Davis's great surprise, Link was as desperate as he was

Even though the Grizzlies are now more than 10 points ahead, and even though the series total has now become 3-0, Link has not slackened in the slightest.

He didn't refuse to do the dirty work because he was a superstar, nor did he relax because he was far ahead.

Link and the Grizzlies were undoubtedly Davis' best teachers and gave him a real understanding of what the playoffs are.

In the playoffs, your opponents will seize every weakness of you and hit you hard, until you hurt, until you have no power to fight back, until the moment the whistle blows, and they finally win!

That's what Grizzlies and Link do, and as long as they get into a fight, they won't show mercy. Whether they're 10 points ahead or 10 points behind, they're just as bloodthirsty.

In the end, Link took the lead on the floor to take the ball into his arms. Before he could get up, Link passed the ball out and handed it to Mike. Conley.

With Link's aggressive and tough scramble, the Grizzlies got a chance to play the fast break.

Conley broke through quickly, and he spent so long in the regular season just to be able to burst out with maximum power in the playoffs.

He lived up to Link's expectations and made a quick layup.

After that shot, the Grizzlies led the Pelicans by 13 points. Again, before halftime, the Grizzlies led the Pelicans by double digits!

"Link is definitely a championship player and he shows the world what a real superstar is! If you're in Link's shoes, you're probably too lazy to go and talk to Anthony. Davis scrambles. After all, the Grizzlies are far ahead, and even without this goal, the Grizzlies can still maintain the lead. But that's Link, and he's delivering a message all the time – I want to win! ”

On the commentary stage, even the local New Orleans commentators were full of praise for Link.

No way, at the moment, the Pelicans really don't have any possibility of taking down the Grizzlies.

To be exact, the Pelicans have been killed since that halftime break in Game 1 of the series.

Bill. In the game where Simmons shaved his head live, the Pelicans ended up losing to the Grizzlies by 23 points. In the second game, the Pelicans improved, losing by 10 points to the Grizzlies......

In the last game, the Pelicans finally returned to their home court, and this group of young people tried to win one back, and they did push their limits.

In the first three quarters, the Pelicans and Grizzlies played very anxiously. At the end of the third quarter, the Pelicans even led by 5 points!

Just when everyone thought that the pelicans might really be able to save face, Link showed up with a scythe again.

In the fourth quarter of the game, Link scored 17 points in a single quarter. He threw a sudden combination and put Anthony. Davis was stunned.

Maybe there was only one thing on Davis' mind at that time, "How can there be such a guy in this world!?" ”

With Link's supernatural play, the Grizzlies scored 39 points in the fourth quarter and defeated the Pelicans in one fell swoop. They held on for three full quarters, but couldn't withstand Link's frantic counterattack in the final 12 minutes.

In the end, the Grizzlies won the game 123-108. Link scored 40 points, 10 rebounds and 7 assists, which was also the first time that Link scored 40+ points in the playoffs this season.

When the Pelicans thought they could do miracles, Link just frowned and ruined them.

After the third game, the huge difference in strength between the two sides has been very obvious. And the overall score of 3-0 is enough to break the Pelicans' last illusion.

Therefore, after Link made a little effort in the last game to finish off the Pelicans, who were in good form. Today, no one thinks the Pelicans can win.

But even in such a situation, Link is still fighting, still bravely falling to the ground, and still not slacking off.

What he did undoubtedly completely closed the "window" of New Orleans and made the whole of New Orleans bleak.

Davis got up from the ground, gasping for air. Link beside him also stood up, but as if he was fine, he immediately retreated.

Davis shook his head, and the four games against Link made his eyes even higher.

It turns out that this is how the top stars in this world play......

Davis' first trip to the playoffs was an eye-opener.

In the second half, the Grizzlies still maintained their grip on the Pelicans. And the further back the Pelicans players play, the more absent-minded they become.

What does it mean to be hopeless in victory? When you can't get to the single digits at your best, it's a hopeless victory.

The Pelicans' life-and-death battle was not as anxious as expected, and the Grizzlies had already replaced the main lineup in the final half of the quarter. But in the end, they still won the game by 109 to 98, 11 points.

The moment the electronic beep sounded, it meant that the Pelicans didn't have a game that could close the margin to single digits. They lost 4-0 with no way to fight back!

"It's over, and it's a relief for the Pelicans players. Now, they can finally escape from this devilish land and enjoy their vacation. ”

After the game, even the commentators were happy for the Pelicans.

This kind of competition is really torturous......

After the game, Anthony . Davis and Link hug. Link said some kind words of comfort, and then said goodbye.

Pelicans coach Monty. Williams was interviewed by the sideline media for the first time, and Williams' face was full of the word "helpless", and he faced the camera and sighed vigorously.

"What more can I say? They are probably the strongest team we have ever faced...... They have no weaknesses to speak of. ”

"There is no weakness at all", this is Monty. Williams gave the Grizzlies an evaluation.

To have a manager say that kind of thing shows that he and his team really can't do anything.

Winning the first round of the series, the Grizzlies players weren't really excited. After all, it's a task that must be done for them.

So after the promotion, everyone is generally calm.

Link didn't talk much about the game in his post-match press conference, instead saying good things about Davis.

But the reporters didn't come together to hear Link compliment Anthony. Davis's.

"I'm glad I don't have to face Anthony before next season starts. Davis too. He's an amazing player, he can cause problems on both ends of the pitch, all over the pitch. ”

"With his skills, he's not a guy to mess with. He deserves our high-profile defensive treatment. ”

"The other person is very talented, and I have to deal with it seriously every night."

Link rarely praises his opponent in press conferences, which only shows that Link doesn't see Davis as a real opponent at all......

Just imagine, now that the Warriors and Grizzlies are fighting, Link will praise Raymond like this. Green?

With Link's character, it's not bad not to curse.

Anyway, Link is the winner now, and he can't praise Anthony enough. Davis, it doesn't make sense.

One of the reporters couldn't sit still, he raised his hand and stood up and asked a question that ruined the atmosphere of victory.

"Link, as you know, you became the first unanimous MVP in NBA history last season, and you got a great achievement. But this year, it's widely believed that the competition for MVP is fierce. Most of your votes have been voted by Stephen. Curry takes it. Not only will you not be elected unanimously, but the MVP position is even in jeopardy. Do you think you can continue to win MVP this season? Do you have this confidence? ”

As soon as the reporter's question came out, the press conference scene was instantly quiet.

It's completely a pot that can't be opened!

Everyone can see how strong Curry has been this season, and he is indeed one of the favorites for MVP right now.

Sure enough, when Curry was mentioned, Link didn't continue to praise others. After all, Curry is his real opponent.

"If he's really that strong, then why hasn't he won a single best of the month? I'm hoping someone will give me trouble, because I'm running out of budget to expand my showroom. ”

Link confidently responded to the reporter, not ashamed to pretend to be forced.

Grab the MVP? Curry is a little bit off this season.
