688: Angry old man

Ginobili roared in the sky, and although he no longer had the long flowing hair of the year, the eagle of the Pampas never stopped soaring.

When Joggle saw Ginobili score, he could only shake his head helplessly.

The Spurs' final offense is the hardest to defend against because you really can't predict who Popovich will let execute that final blow.

It's been said that the biggest disadvantage of team basketball is that no one can step up when it matters most.

But the Spurs are the opposite, they not only have people who can stand up at critical moments, but there are also many people who can stand up. At Spurs, everyone has to have the ability to hit the ball in key moments.

Ginobili, Parker, Duncan, Danny. Green and even Leonard...... They will not be soft at critical moments. Perhaps, this is what sets Spurs apart from other team-based teams.

Duncan excitedly touched Ginobili's head, while Parker hugged his good partner. Leonard didn't smile, but he also shook his fist secretly.

"Well done, stinky boy! It's like a Spurs player! ”

After Ginobili left the court, even the usually calm Popovich couldn't help but yell.

The Spurs need this win over the Grizzlies so badly that they've been hungry for revenge for too long.

What could be more disappointing than a lore? It's no wonder that even Popovich couldn't control his excitement.

The pride he had lost had finally been regained!

The Federal Express Stadium lost its voice in an instant, and the fans covered their heads with their hands in frustration, very painful.

It's true that the Grizzlies have lost twice this season. But not once, because of the opponent's lore, lost.

It's never been the Grizzlies who kill someone with a final hit, and the fans in the room haven't experienced what it's like to be killed by an opponent's final blow this season.

All hope was in those last 4 seconds. But everyone has to admit that 4 seconds is too tight.

Joggel in Quinn. Snyder, the offensive coach, arranged two plans for AB.

The first plan is naturally for Link to focus on offense, and if he has the opportunity, Link will kill the game directly from beyond the three-point line.

The second plan was to give the ball to Conley, who had already scored 24 points, and Conley was in great form today, and Jogger wanted to believe him.

Both nodded slightly, without any objections. It's a trust that the manager chooses you to execute the final attack. So whether you want to or not, you have to!

Conley gritted his teeth, he had actually been haunted by the fact that he couldn't make it to the All-Star team.

In the West, the competition between defenders is indeed too fierce. Conley is not weak, but his popularity is not very high.

This is the seventh year of Conley's career, but he has not even been selected to the All-Star lineup.

This season, Conley is going to make his dreams come true no matter what!

With that in mind, Conley clenched his fists and stepped onto the court.

On the Spurs' side, everyone is on the lookout. As the side leading in the final moments, the Spurs have the absolute initiative.

They don't panic, which means they don't make mistakes. This offense by the Grizzlies is going to be very tough!

It's not the first time Link has experienced this kind of moment, and since his rookie season with Paul's shut-out, Link has gone further and further down that shut-out path.

Because of this, Link's defense has become tighter at key moments.

This time, Link is not only with Leonard by his side. Tim. Duncan also blocked Link's receiving route at any time, and the Spurs didn't dare to let Link touch the basketball at all!

Link tried his best to get rid of it, but Leonard's defense wasn't something he could get rid of.

Under the strict obstruction of Leonard and Duncan, Gasol Jr. finally had no choice but to carry out Plan B - to deliver the basketball to Conley!

The moment Conley got the basketball, his mind was full of obsession with being an All-Star! As if he only needed to make that shot, he would definitely be on the All-Star team.

So, after receiving the ball, Conley dribbled two steps, and shot directly one step outside the three-point line!

"Mike is in such a hurry!" Snyder gritted his teeth, and there were four seconds, but Conley was flustered.

Heroes are not so easy to be heroes, and they can't be heroes by throwing the ball out and trying their luck at a critical moment.

Conley's distractions and the impatient shot just now made his shot off target!

The basketball slammed into the side of the basket and bounced back.

Missed shot!

"No!" Conley roared inwardly, this was obviously his chance, but he screwed up!

Obviously, his previous performance was perfect, but because of this last-minute stunner, all of Conley's previous efforts will be negated!

Popovich has already raised his arms in advance, and he has revenge! He's waited long enough for this day!

The old man was already thinking about what kind of bad joke he was going to use to taunt the grizzly bear later.

Just when everyone thought the situation was decided, Link suddenly jumped into the air and clicked the basketball that bounced to the middle distance with one hand.

But the time when Link touched the basketball and the time when the red light on the rebound was almost the same, and after the red light was on, the basketball miraculously rolled up a "wave"!

Link hits a one-handed layup from mid-range!

But the fans didn't cheer, and the Grizzlies players didn't rush to surround Link.

The Spurs players weren't frustrated, they just smiled playfully.

Being able to put the ball in the frame with one hand from a mid-range position, Popovich admits Link has done something that many people have not done.

But alas, the game is over! Even if you score another hundred goals after the game, it won't help!

"Do you think you can beat me? Accept the fact that you failed! Popovich smugly shouted from Link, and this time, the silver-haired old man was finally able to confront Link as a victor.

Link ignored Popovich and instead walked straight to the technical table and found the referee, "Aren't you going to watch the footage?" ”

"That's right! You can't judge that ball with the naked eye! If you don't watch the footage, you're unfair! Jogger rushed up and added fuel to the fire with Link.

The referee shook his head and motioned for the replay center to give him video footage from all angles.

On that ball, the time when Link touched the basketball almost coincided with the time when the lights were on. If you look at it with the naked eye, the first feeling is that it has timed out.

Otherwise, the Federal Express Arena would not have been without cheers at all. Because in most people's first impressions, that goal is indeed a timeout.

Otherwise, Link would have made up such a crucial goal, and the Federal Express Arena would have been shaken long ago.

So the referee didn't think about turning the game around when he watched the video, just to convince the Grizzlies to lose.

Popovich found out that the referee was actually watching the video, so he also came up, "Don't waste everyone's time, admit it, you lost!" You guys fucking lost, you don't think you can take the Spurs away with the win all the time, do you? You don't think you can really rule the League, do you? I think you're only suitable for Bill. Simmons plays that kind of women's clothing game. ”

"Shut up, old man, is it your time to speak!?"

As everyone knows, Link went back very rudely. And the eyes that looked at Popovich were very vicious!

"What the are you talking about!? Little brat, you damn yellow-skinned monkey! Who the fuck do you think you're fucking? You give Lao Tzu ......"

Before Popovich could finish scolding, he was dragged aside by the assistant coach. In the process, Popovich also slapped the technical table very hard.

The scene became chaotic, and the referee had to not only watch the video, but also maintain order.

Can Popovich not be angry? No player has ever dared to speak to him like that. Any journalist, any coach or even a referee, is respectful to him.

It's not often that you hear anyone say that Popovich is not, and that he is simply a perfectly intelligent man in the eyes of most people.

But Link knew that Popovich couldn't fly or shoot lasers with his eyes, he was just an ordinary person. You have to respect him, but there is no need to mythologize him, and there is no need to swallow him everywhere.

Popovich has always been outspoken, both for players and for journalists.

Most of the time, Popovich's candid words are interpreted as "humorous." But just now, Popovich's trash talk didn't make Link feel humorous.

I was already watching the video, and Link really didn't know what Popovich was talking about. And at the end of the game, when Popovich first talked trash talk, Link had already put up with it once. As a result, Popovich not only did not let go, but continued to bite it, so don't blame Link for being embarrassed.

Popovich's face turned red with anger over there, but Link, the other client, was still standing next to the referee as if nothing was happening, waiting for the video results.

In the end, the referee found the clearest angle. Then the moment Link's hand touches the basketball, the scene pauses.

Finally, the screen shows that when Link touches the basketball, the number on the timer is "0.3". And when the red light on the rebound came on, the referee stopped the picture again.

Everyone clearly saw that there was indeed a gap between Link and basketball.

Link made his shot before the end of the game time!

In the next second, the audience was in an uproar. The fans cheered, and Popovich's eyes widened in disbelief that the game had just flown away!

The referee also made an official decision, signaling that Link's rebound was valid, adding two points to the Grizzlies!

As a result, Link's goal in the last 0.3 seconds tied the game at 98-98. They will continue to battle it out in overtime!

Link looked at the angry Popovich and shrugged. It seems that Link is more like a calm old man, while Popovich is like a stunned young man who has lost his grace.

Link then returned to the bench to prepare for extra time.

Popovich wants to stop the Grizzlies from wreaking havoc on the league? There are no doors!
