It's not the first time Link has disappointed opposing fans, and whenever people think the Grizzlies are going to be in trouble, when they think Link is going to be in trouble, the truth is often very different from what people think.

But all the fans of Indianapolis had no idea that things would be so disappointing.

In their expectations, the Pacers should be closer to victory than the Trail Blazers were two days ago. In their expectations, Paul. George should have a good fight with Link. In their expectations, it should be a fierce rehearsal for the Grand Final!

However, the situation now is that the Pacers trailed by 14 points in the final four minutes of the final quarter. When Link had already scored 28 points lightly, Paul Brown. George's score is yet to reach 20.

The stands at Consec Arena were mostly empty, and many Pacers fans had already left early because they couldn't stand the humiliation.

Larry sitting in a luxury box. Bird's eyes were glazed over, and 24 hours ago he told reporters in high spirits, "We are the best team".

But now, he himself found that sentence very ridiculous.

Bird never overturned when he was a player, but at this time, he ...... This is also the reason why Bird does not like to pretend in recent years. After all, right now, his fate is not in his own hands.

But what saddened Bird the most was not the pretending to fail, but the huge gap between the Pacers and the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies are undoubtedly one of the strongest championship contenders this season, and the Pacers will have to be prepared to go toe-to-toe with the Grizzlies if they want to win the title.

But judging by the results of today's game, the Pacers don't have what it takes to cause problems for the Grizzlies. If it's a best-of-seven series, Bird estimates the Pacers will only win one game at most!

Such a situation made Bird have no hope of winning the championship. He didn't expect that the first place in the East was still so far away from the championship.

At the same time, on the pitch, George's confidence was completely destroyed.

He has only scored 12 points so far today, and his shooting rate has fallen below 30%! He spent the whole game in the sound of iron.

If it weren't for the rest of the Pacers, the margin would have been even greater.

What made George despair even more was not his poor performance, but Link's brilliant performance, which was the complete opposite of him.

Link beat George to a temperless point today, making George suffer on both ends of the floor. In front of Link, George felt like he was back in his rookie season. In the face of a strong opponent, he is too weak to do anything.

But obviously in the last game, both sides could barely reach a draw. Obviously, the two have been training together last summer.

George thought he was about to catch up with Link, like two cars in a fierce chase on the track. George was about to overtake, he had found his way, put up gear, and was ready to go.

But Link smiled back at the rearview mirror, increased the throttle, and easily threw George away, waiting for George to chase after him.

Every time you think you'll catch up with him, he'll be able to throw you away. This frustration had completely occupied George's heart at this time.

Hill made a nice ground-hitting pass that moved the ball from the crowded inside to the bottom left corner. There, Paul. George is on standby.

At this time, there are still a small number of Pacers fans cheering for the home team players, and they still think that the Pacers still have a chance to live.

George received the basketball, and the fans were expecting him to make a beautiful long-range shot. In this way, the difference is only 11 points!

Chasing 11 minutes in just over four minutes is not an impossible task.

In normal times, George would have made a decisive move, stepped up, and led the team through the difficult times to blow up the stands at the Consec Arena.

But today, George hesitated when he received the basketball. Because he saw Link rushing at him with his teeth and claws, and it made him feel a sudden increase in pressure!

The whole game was suppressed by Link, Paul. George's self-confidence has long been destroyed.

In the end, George didn't throw that long shot as expected. After Link pressed up, George had no choice but to give the ball to Stephenson.

When the Pacers needed George the most, he opted for passing, and he backed down!

In the stands, the Pacers fans who were still raising their arms and shouting just now put down their hands, their eyes were lonely, and they didn't make any more sounds.

Their only hope had just been extinguished.

"Stephenson gets the basketball, and he's going to single out Tony. Alan. Lance tried to drive straight to the basket, and the shot was too easy! Sure enough, Tony cut the basketball the moment Stephenson jumped to the basket. The Pacers made another turnover, and it was already their 19th turnover of the game! God, the Pacers made a lot of mistakes today under the Grizzlies' defense! ”

Reggie. As soon as Miller's voice fell, Tony. Allen assisted Conley to fight back, widening the gap to 16 points!

The dead silence at the Consec Arena prevented the Grizzlies from breaking the last line of defense of their 72-win record, just like the Maginot Line, which France said would "never be breached" during World War II.

Off the court, Pacers coach Frank Brown. Vogel shook his head helplessly, he couldn't do anything useful anymore.

When a team's star is destroyed, it's hard to make a difference. The most powerful weapons are gone, what else can you fight with?

Link, that horrible guy, did all the "inhumane" things.

Two minutes later, both coaches made changes to their main line-ups. This also means that the war that people expected ended in garbage time.

Reggie. Miller sat in the commentary booth, his eyes glazed over. He really didn't expect this match to be like this, and he thought George would at least be able to draw with Link.

But in the end, the two had 12 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 4 turnovers to 28 points, 11 rebounds and 8 assists, plus 2 steals and 1 block.

The gap between the two sides can be seen clearly from the data, and it is even more miserable from the scene.

"This game was so unexpected, Reggie, before the game you thought George would be able to cause problems for Link, but in fact George didn't hurt Link today! What do you think about this? What caused such a result? ”

Miller's commentary partner has already begun to summarize the game in advance, otherwise there is really nothing to say in front of a bunch of substitutes who are killing time.

Miller was silent for a moment, then sighed.

"All I can say is...... Before the game, we didn't expect Link to be so strong. ”

The all-time three-pointer, who once pushed Jordan away to complete the stunner and has never been afraid of any opponent. But in 2014, at the Conseco Arena, he was conquered by a failed draft.

In the end, the game ended with a score of 107-90. The Grizzlies scored 17 points at Conseco Arena, and the Pacers were eager to take a step that the Trail Blazers failed to take. But in the end, they realized that they were far from victory.

Paul. George shot just 20 percent from the field, the lowest of all players on the team. The Pacers didn't score 20 points, and the top scorer was David. West only scored 18 points.

The whole game set the tone almost from the first quarter, and from the first quarter, the Pacers have been doing one thing — chasing points.

They have never had a one-minute advantage or lead, and in front of the tough Grizzlies, the first place in the East looks extremely weak!

After the game, George hugged Link in a frustrated manner before leaving without saying a word.

Looking at George's down-and-out back, Link pouted, did he act too hard today?

A full-name idol and people's hope is ruthlessly destroyed by Link.

Well...... It's really ruthless. The story of the NBA once again ends with the victory of the "villain".

After this game, the Grizzlies have a gorgeous 63-5 record. The Pacers have won two of the three hardest games of March.

One thing has been recognized: Even if the Grizzlies do lose to the Heat tomorrow, it won't affect their 72-win goal too much.

All the fans need to do is wait for the moment of history!

They no longer dare to have hope for any of Link's opponents, because Link specializes in destroying hope!
