Doug. Rivers had planned to completely open up the deficit in the second quarter, but now he was thinking about how to close the score.

Rivers misestimated the strength of Jordan Jr. and Griffin, and he didn't expect that the Clippers would be beaten to the ground by Gasol and a 10-day short-term job while restricting Link......

Nine points isn't the end of the world for the Clippers, though, and Rivers is still hopeful for the game.

"In the second half, we did man-marking. Whiteside doesn't have any offensive skills to speak of, no single-player ability, and Gasol's effectiveness will drop when he encounters a strong defense. As for Link......" Rivers said this, and couldn't help but glance at Paul.

Link barely took a shot in the second quarter, scoring just 10 points at halftime. There should be a big problem with his fitness, and in the second half, Barnes, you can handle him. If not, Chris, you go defend Link. ”

Rivers is well aware that the biggest drawback of man-to-man defense is that Link will be liberated.

But between Link's previous performances, Rivers was lucky. He thinks Link may not be able to play at his full strength.

"I'm so happy!" Paul was on his toes, and he wasn't afraid to defend opponents who were taller than him.

What Link said in an interview at halftime was something Paul heard. Not to mention that in the second quarter, Link provoked Paul countless times.

No matter what, he won't give up on this game! Paul hates to be offended, and he'll let Link see who's the boss.

The second half started quickly, and Jordan Jr. and Griffin both had their heads down when they played.

The second section was blown up like that, and they naturally had no light on their faces.

Paul patted them on the back as a sign of encouragement, "It's only nine points away, and we still have a lot of time." As long as people can prevent people, we can overtake! ”

Nine points down at half-time, it's really not the end of the world. On the podium, Mark. Jackson also said something similar to Paul's.

"The Grizzlies played a beautiful second quarter, but the Clippers weren't fuel-efficient lights. Redick, Paul and Crawford all played well on the outside today. I wouldn't be surprised if they were able to pull off a wave of attacking highs. ”

"But have you ever wondered, Mark. The first to hit the offensive climax may be the Grizzlies? "Hubby. Brin smiled, Link only scored 10 points today.

That guy hasn't started attacking yet.

"No, it won't. Doug. Rivers is experienced, and you and I both know that. He's not going to do nothing, and the Clippers have certainly adjusted their defensive strategy to limit the Grizzlies' interior twin towers. ”

Hubi. Brown just smiled and didn't say anything more.

It seems that Mark. Jackson still doesn't know Link's style, and he still has to come to the Federal Express Arena to explain a few games.

Just before the start of the second half, Link had just stepped onto the pitch and waved at Paul.

"Chris, I hope you're ready."

"I hope you're ready, and we'll regroup." Paul crossed his waist and babbled.

"Looks like you haven't realized the mistake you've made, Chris. The biggest mistake you made today was to me off. ”

Link said this with a smile, but Paul felt a chill run down his spine.

Soon, the Grizzlies kicked off the baseline, and Link officially began to execute his "three-quarter clock" plan.

In the first attack of the second half, Link took possession of the ball. Barnes clung close, hoping to put pressure on Link.

Rivers was extremely nervous off the court, and whether Link could show his best form was the key to whether the Clippers could win today.

After a tentative step, Link accelerated to break through and hit a mid-range pullup jumper.

As soon as the shot was made, Rivers swung his fist. He could see that Link's shot was crooked!

Sure enough, the basketball smashed to the front of the basket, and Link missed the first shot!

The audience sighed, didn't Link really recover from the strain today?

Just when everyone was suspicious, Link quickly jumped into the restricted area after missing the shot and "flew" into the air lightly.

Little Jordan had just moved his bulky body off the floor when Link had already stretched out his long arm over his head and grabbed the basketball that popped out of the frame.

I saw Link feel a soft touch in the air, and the basketball obediently flew back to the basket.

This time, there were no accidents, and the basketball crashed into the net!

"Wonderful self-throwing, Link made a basket, and he stretched the difference to double digits! Haha, it seems that his previous shot didn't score, and it was just to pave the way for this beautiful rebound. ”

The fans, who were still sighing a second ago, immediately cheered, this is Link, he can always rewrite the result when everyone thinks it is over!

Link threw his arms up and smiled along with the fans.

But when he passed Paul's side, Link's smile still made "Queen Bee" feel uncomfortable, "This is just the beginning, Chris, just the beginning." We still have time, slowly correct your mistakes. ”

It's not the first time Paul has been provoked in this way, but every time, he can immediately get back face.

This time, Paul thought so, too.

With Griffin's pick-and-roll, Paul suddenly made a sudden stop, creating the illusion that he was ready to shoot.

Conley was fooled, and he threw his weight and prepared to jump to block. Paul disembarks from the donkey and accelerates twice, passing Conley.

Don't forget, the Clippers No. 3 is also a master dribbling master.

Paul broke through quickly, and by this time, Gasol and Whiteside had not yet returned to the box. Paul knew that in such a situation, he would do almost whatever he wanted.

Take off, take off, hand the basketball to the basket, and ......

"Bang!"

Link swung his huge palm from behind Paul, Tarzan pressed the top, and cleanly pressed the ball on the rebound, and Paul fell to the ground!

Paul lay on the ground and looked at Link, whose eyes were full of anger, and Link shook his head at Paul lightly, as if to tell him, "Your time to do whatever you want is over." ”

"Being offended, Paul has long been targeted by Link! The player with the lowest block rate in the league can't avoid Link's unleashed firepower. "Hubby. Bryn's witty words are full of words, he has long been prepared for Link's outburst.

Link turned and countered and ran to the front in an instant.

Matt. Barnes arrived just in time to interrupt the Grizzlies' fast break.

But Link didn't give up there, and when he saw that the fast break couldn't be achieved, he leaned against Barnes with his strong back and raised his hand to ask for the ball like an insider.

Conley comfortably delivered the ball to Barnes, gritting his teeth knowing he was about to face a tough battle.

However, the battle ended sooner than Barnes expected.

Link turned, his broad shoulders and thick back brushed over Barnes, as if the compass had drawn a perfect arc.

Link's footsteps were so fast that Barnes didn't react to the turn. Like a dead tree, he watched Link flash in front of him, then gently lowered the ball into the frame.

There was no hard fighting, and Link let Barnes "die" without pain.

Link scored four points in a row, but everyone knew that his performance wasn't over yet.

Chris. Paul didn't want to watch Link perform, so he motioned for Barnes to switch places with him, and then he defended Link himself!

Until then, though, the Clippers will have to settle offense.

Paul is not playing well on his own right now, and he knows that Link is staring at him. So, he wanted to find Redick or Griffin, hoping to break the deadlock with a shot.

However, what Paul didn't expect was that Link was the first to defend in front of him.

In the face of Link's waving long arm, Paul lowered his center of gravity and waited for Jordan Jr. to block and take place.

Link stared at the basketball in Paul's hand, and he could feel the power of Paul's imminent explosion.

Little Jordan covered in place, Paul accelerated to prepare for a breakthrough, he riveted his strength, and the temperature in the "engine" had been raised to the highest!

At the moment when Paul accelerated, Link suddenly reached out his long arm and stabbed the basketball in his hand without Paul reacting at all!

"What!? Link steals Chris. Paul!? "Mark. Jackson stood up with his hands on his head, and Paul was like a pot of water about to boil, and a second before it overflowed, Link poured a bowl of cold water.

Paul immediately "cooled down", but Link took advantage of the trend to break alone. Barnes finds himself completely unable to catch up with that number 0, and he must admit that he is no longer the "mad dog" of the Warriors and gangsters.

Link dunked the basket with one hand and scored 6 points in a row!

Paul is rarely snatched from his hands by someone else, but this time, he sensed Link's deep malice.

His mind was now full of Link's words, "You made a mistake. ”

20 seconds later, Link tricked Paul into the air from outside the three-point line, and the latter was hit head-on by Link like an out-of-control plane, shooting, fouling, and three free throws!

At the free throw line, Link made no mistakes, hitting all three free throws and scoring 9 points in a row!

In the next round, Link played a much simpler game. He dummy a shot and then cut in from the right side, pushing Paul to step on three steps and make a layup.

Paul was completely powerless to resist, and Link's onslaught was completely crushing him.

Scoring 11 points in a row, Link went crazy!

With each turn that followed, Paul felt regret that he had angered people he shouldn't have provoked in the first quarter......

When Link scored again with a turnaround jumper that easily landed on Paul's head, Doug Brown scored again. Rivers called a halt to the game.

Before the start of the second half, Paul also encouraged the frustrated Griffin and Jordan Jr. as a leader.

But now Paul's head is buried deeper than they are.

"15 points in a row, terrible Link, as soon as the third quarter started, he scored 15 points in a row, and the Clippers couldn't stop him at all. He only scored 10 points in the first half, but this guy was released in the third quarter as if he deliberately saved his energy! ”

Link went on a 15-0 run alone, and the Clippers are now trailing by 24 points and have been beaten to the ground with little room to fight back.

As Link said, he ended it all before the fourth quarter.

His anger burned this battlefield to the ground.
