One Thousand One Hundred and Seventy-Eight: I Will Kill You Here Later.

In the last 25 seconds of the game, the Golden State Warriors reached a crossroads in their franchise history.

Although they may not win the entire series if they win this game, at least they still have a chance to give it a try.

As long as there is still a chance, the outcome will remain variable.

But if they lose this game, the Warriors will really have no chance at all.

It's not that Cole has no confidence in his team, but that he dares to face reality.

Let the Grizzlies get the match point and let them bring the total score of the series to 3 to 1, which means that the Warriors must win three consecutive games against the Grizzlies to win the series.

As long as the Warriors make any slight mistakes, they may be eliminated.

Cole knew very well that this was a very unrealistic thing.

It's hard enough to beat the Grizzlies once, let alone defeat them three times in a row.

Therefore, the Warriors must win today. Only by equalizing the total score will they have room to deal with the Grizzlies.

If they win, they still have a chance to build a dynasty.

If they lose, the Warriors will become the biggest backdrop of the Grizzlies era.

So these last 25 seconds will change more than just the outcome of this game or this series.

What will change in the last 25 seconds may be the history of the Warriors!

Whether they will become brilliant or mediocre depends on the last 25 seconds.

During the timeout, even some fans sitting in front of the TV felt out of breath, let alone the players who were experiencing it firsthand.

When the buzzer sounded to end the timeout, Durant became extremely nervous.

But the moment he stepped onto the court, he suddenly felt relieved.

This kind of moment is the moment to truly prove yourself!

He and Curry looked at each other and nodded silently.

This warrior can only be saved by them!

"The game is coming to an end, and this may be the most critical attack and defense of the game. The Grizzlies are only leading by 1 point, and Durant is indeed suspected of fouling on the ball just now. But it is obvious that the referee wants the players to decide the game themselves. Result." Mike Breen watched the players from both sides appear and began to explain again.

1 point difference, this can be said to be the most exciting situation.

For the offense, they have more ways to end the game. But equally, this 1 point is very likely to crush them to death!

On the basketball court, the difference of 1 point is very subtle. In any case, the game cannot be dragged into overtime. No matter what, the game is going to be a one-hit kill!

"Come on, come on, it's them who should be nervous!" When Link came on the stage, he yelled at all his teammates.

"Link is right, we are going to take this game away no matter what!"

Wade, who came back after treating the wound, also echoed, and their words relieved everyone's tension.

Link's eyes were fixed on Durant. Today, Durant has scored 32 points and shot 44.2% from the field.

And this is the third consecutive game that Link has allowed Durant to score more than 30 points.

I have to admit that opponents of Durant's level are really not easy to restrict.

But no matter what, Link must defend Durant in this attack.

After Curry controlled the ball for half the game, he dribbled away from the three-point line to delay time.

Obviously, the Warriors did not intend to leave even a tenth of a second more time for the Grizzlies. There are only 25 seconds left in the game. As long as the Warriors can manage the attack time properly, the Grizzlies will never get a chance!

Everyone in the stands held their breath,

Some fans in front of the TV even closed their eyes and turned down the sound of the TV to the minimum, counting silently for 24 seconds before opening their eyes again to see the final result.

The fans still have room to escape, but the players have to face it.

Finally, with only 7 seconds left in the attack time, Curry took action!

Durant quickly approached Curry at this time, and Curry also gave the ball to Durant.

Durant broke through after receiving the ball. It seemed that the Warriors chose to get a safe two points!

Link stood in front of Durant while feeling a little wary.

If a defensive foul is called at this time, the gain will outweigh the loss.

However, after Durant burst into the middle and attracted the Grizzlies defense, he suddenly stopped!

At first, Link thought Durant was going to make a sudden jump shot, but he didn't know that Durant passed the ball behind him.

Behind him, on the right side of the three-point line, Curry used Green's off-ball screen to get rid of Conley and got an open shot.

From the beginning, Durant was feinting! Curry has always been the end point of the Warriors' offense. He handed the ball to Durant just to divert the Grizzlies' defensive attention.

This time, Durant and Curry no longer fought alone. They decided to tide over the crisis with their teammates!

"Stephen Curry caught the basketball and he shot decisively!"

As soon as Mike Breen finished speaking, the basketball exploded into a "white wave"!

Curry hit a three-pointer, and the Warriors gave the team a two-point lead in the last second of the game.

"It's in, it's in, it's in! Stephen, Curry, he did it, another magical killing game! God, this is a perfect combination, a perfect shot! Stephen Curry saves The Warriors saved this series! The great Stephen Curry, if the Warriors finally win this series, people will find that this goal is the beginning of the Warriors' counterattack!"

Amid the cheers of the fans and the crazy shouts of Mike Breen, Curry changed his previous "elementary school student" image. He looked up to the sky and roared. People had never seen Curry look so ferocious.

"Fuck, it was just a little bit worse!" Conley knelt down on one knee in frustration and punched the wooden floor.

He admitted that he didn't expect Durant to pass the ball back to Curry. Therefore, facing Green's sudden off-ball screen and Curry's sudden escape, Conley was not prepared at all.

Had he been well prepared, he would have been able to get around the screen quickly.

Conley blames himself very much, very much. Randolph's punch and Wade's blood were all wasted by him alone.

At this time, Link walked up to Conley and extended his right hand to him.

"What are you doing? The game isn't over yet!"

"Link..."

"Get up, it's not time to give in yet, Mike."

Link's firm tone revived Conley, who had been completely defeated by Curry.

He grabbed Link's hand hard, as if grabbing the last straw.

"I'm sorry, Link..."

"It doesn't matter, there's only one second left."

At this time, Joger also called to stop the game. He had saved the last pause just to deal with this situation.

But at this time, Warriors fans no longer believed that the Grizzlies could win the game. They are already celebrating this hard-won victory, and next, they will get back to the same starting line as the Grizzlies!

"Calm down, calm down! Ignore their cheers, we still have our own things to do!"

Joger held the tactical board and yelled at his already hoarse voice in the extremely noisy FedEx Arena.

The Grizzlies players quickly calmed down. Link was right, the game is not over yet!

If the Grizzlies want to win now, they must make a three-pointer. Moreover, the ball must be scored within one second.

In other words, the Grizzlies don't have many passing opportunities and no time to dribble.

No matter who catches the basketball in the end, no matter whether he gets rid of the defense when he catches the basketball, he must take action immediately.

It is obvious how difficult this shot is.

There is no doubt that this shot must be executed by Link. From Cole's side, it's easy to guess this.

Therefore, Link will face extremely tight defense.

Joger arranged two sets of tactics. One was for Link to catch and shoot from outside the three-point line.

But if Link can't finish it, then go to Plan B. Right away, Wade cut to the basket and caught the ball to tie the score and send the game into overtime.

Of course, Plan B is no solution. It is more difficult to pass the ball to a player cutting inside under heavy defense than to pass the ball to a player outside the three-point line.

If Link is unable to execute the shot, the Grizzlies' winning rate will be directly reduced by 80%!

So strictly speaking, Link is the Grizzlies' only chance to win!

After receiving their mission, Link and Wade nodded silently. At the same time, an electronic buzzer sounded.

At that moment, the cheers in FedEx Arena became even louder. After all, there was only one second left and the Warriors were about to win.

"Are you stressed?" Before coming out, Wade came to Link's side.

Before Link, Wade had also worked with great players like O'Neal and James.

But to be honest, there has never been a critical moment when Wade felt as at ease as he did today.

"Pressure? I make tens of millions of dollars a year. If this is considered a lot of pressure, how can other people survive? In the Development League, if you can't pay the rent and can only live on the sofa of a friend's house, that's called pressure. .After those days, I don’t feel stressed in any situation. Believe it or not, I don’t feel any stress at all, Dwayne.”

After Link finished speaking, he walked into the court with his head held high.

Wade smiled, no wonder, that guy could always deliver a fatal blow.

The game resumed, and Durant stood ready in front of his old enemy.

This time, Durant did not speak out to provoke Link. He knew that doing so was very dangerous.

But Link looked at Durant with confidence in his eyes, as if the Grizzlies were leading by 2 points.

"Kevin."

Durant heard Link's voice, but did not answer.

But this does not prevent Link from continuing his offensive.

"Listen, I'm going to get the ball here and kill you later." Link said, pointing to the right corner.

The veins on Durant's head bulged and he almost exploded!

Is it interesting to learn from Larry Bird? Do you really think you are a historical superstar?

When you lose, I want to see how you end up!

After Link saw Durant's reaction, he smiled with satisfaction. .

Believe it or not, Durant really plans to do that.

Break down your opponent's psychological defenses, starting with trash talk.
