One Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Eight: Completely Sunk
Link made a forced shot against George and Leonard. This scene shocked fans all over the world.
Although Link has contributed many difficult key balls in the past, no matter how difficult the ball was, Link would always open up some space before taking the shot.
But this time, Link completely forced the shot against the opponent's defense.
In the past, Link would get rid of the defense a little bit, but this time he showed his cards directly and stopped pretending.
Facts have proved that Link can hit the shot even against the opponent's defense!
On the court, an excited Dave Joerger was eventually grabbed and dragged off by Iguodala.
The referee also gave Joger a technical foul because the head coach broke into the court without permission.
But Joger didn't care about the technical foul at all at this time. He just wanted to cheer for Link's incredible goal.
As the head coach, Joger knew very well that the execution of the offensive tactic just now failed.
The moment he saw Link trapped in a double-team, he even accepted the defeat in his heart.
However, he never expected that Link would actually bring the grizzly bear back to life.
He was like forcefully pulling the grizzly bear up from the edge of the cliff.
That's right, even Qiaogel, who works with Link every day, was shocked by Link's goal just now.
Let alone anyone else.
"This shot makes absolutely no sense. I don't know how the Clippers players are feeling right now, but I guess most people must be very desperate! Yes, desperate!" Hubie Brown did not expect that after experiencing After so many wonderful kills, Link can still reach the top and bring surprises to the world.
That guy can really hit the key ball in any extreme situation!
Even if Michael Jordan really has magic now, he can't stop Link.
His poisonous milk curse had only been fulfilled once on Link, and it was officially broken.
At this time, the slow-motion playback of Link's shot just started on the big screen.
Fans can clearly see through slow motion,
Link's shot was not purely a strong one, but his body leaned back slightly at the moment of the shot.
It is very difficult to do this action when you take off and shoot backwards under interference.
And when he shot, Link's shooting movements were controlled very accurately!
In other words, Link's ability to hit this shot was not purely due to luck.
He is really capable of scoring the ball in such extreme circumstances!
Even if he had to do it again, he might be able to do it.
On the court, Paul George was stunned.
Especially after Link said to him, "This is what I do," George felt that his determination to win completely collapsed.
Even in such a desperate moment, Link was still full of confidence.
This terrifies George.
It seems that no matter what the situation becomes, Link can turn it around.
No matter how hard you try, you can't beat that guy!
He can always give you the most fatal blow at the most fatal moment.
When George and Leonard had just completed the encirclement, he was still thinking, "It seems that defeating Link is not as difficult as imagined."
But now, he has definitely changed his mind.
Just like when playing a game and encountering a boss whose health bar is never empty, everyone will collapse.
At this point, the game is actually not over yet. Although the Clippers were 1 point behind at the most deadly moment, there were still 4 seconds left in the game.
Although the Clippers no longer have timeouts, they can only attack from the backcourt.
However, 4 seconds is definitely enough time, even to launch an attack from the backcourt.
In other words, whether Link's shot counts as a buzzer-beater depends on whether the Clippers can score in the final attack.
If the Clippers fail to make a shot, then Link's quasi-killer will be established, and he will be as famous as James on the historical buzzer-beater rankings.
But if the Clippers can successfully counterattack, everything that belongs to Link will be taken away by the Clippers.
Doc Rivers was shocked and finally remembered that the Los Angeles Clippers had another chance to come back to life!
So, he stood on the sidelines and yelled at the players, even as he was arranging tactics for the final attack.
However, the Clippers players have been demoralized by Link's goal just now.
Paul George stood on the court like a zombie. He had lost the confidence to turn defeat into victory.
His state is just a microcosm of the entire Clippers team.
"The game is not over yet, we still have one last chance, cheer up! George and Leonard, you have to find opportunities by yourself!"
Rivers had no way to arrange detailed tactics for the players at this time. He could only shout a general direction and determined that George and Leonard were the final finishing points.
But how to implement it depends entirely on the players' own choice.
Where's Link? After he said those words to George leisurely, he called everyone to prepare for defense.
This time, the Grizzlies decided to use a full-court press to press the Clippers, making it difficult for them to even get past halftime.
Link has completed the final blow, and he does not allow any chance of the game being reversed.
Zubac stood at the baseline, feeling his body shaking.
Leonard and Beverley are close to the baseline, and they are the two most likely points to connect.
Meanwhile, George and Harrell stood in the Grizzlies half. They can receive long passes from the backcourt at any time and then complete the fatal blow.
But at this time, the fans in FedEx Arena were not nervous, but cheered and shouted.
Everyone believes that this decisive victory definitely belongs to Link!
"Are you ready!?" The referee looked at Zubac and was about to hand the basketball to him.
Zubac wanted to say that he was not ready yet, but before he could answer, the referee thrust the ball into his arms.
Zubac instantly felt his arms shaking. He glanced at Leonard and Beverley, but they were entangled by Link and Conley respectively.
If you pass it directly to them, there is a high probability that it will be intercepted. Even if they are not intercepted, it will be difficult for them to complete a 4-second offense under such pressure.
So, Zubac cast his gaze into the distance and found a gap on George's side.
Zubac didn't hesitate anymore. He used all his strength to throw the basketball toward the front court like a shot put.
When George saw the basketball flying towards him, he was not excited, but swallowed his saliva.
The fear still hadn't left George.
All he could think about now was the image of Link wagging his finger at him and talking trash.
But George was always one of the MVP candidates last season. He leaned Brooks behind him like a reflex, then reached out and grabbed the long pass!
Then, George turned around and broke through, squeezing Brooks behind him. After looking at the timer and realizing there was very little time left, George took off and shot!
Brooks can hardly interfere with George. If George is allowed to take action like this, the Clippers might really be able to bring the game back!
Paul George will also score 41 points and a buzzer beater at FedEx Arena.
If this shot hits, Paul George will become famous!
But just when George was about to take action, he felt someone holding the basketball from behind him.
George tried hard to shoot the ball, but in the end, the basketball was slapped out from behind first.
"Snapped!"
A crisp sound was followed by the harsh sound of an electronic buzzer.
George only felt a gust of wind passing by him, and then, the No. 0 he was very familiar with landed steadily, ending everything.
Ever since Zubac passed the basketball, Link has been running wild. Eventually, he caught up.
"Link caught up from behind and blocked George. He ended it all with one attack and one defense! The game was over, and the Los Angeles Clippers ultimately failed to close the 1-point gap. Poor Paul George, In one night, he was terminated twice by Link!"
George looked at Link's back, the score on the big screen and the basketball that was sent flying out of the baseline. He suddenly felt his legs weaken and knelt down on one knee.
In the past, he never understood why the powerful LeBron James would kneel down in front of Link many times.
Now, he felt it personally.
Because sometimes losing to Link makes you feel really powerless.
Link did not immediately go up to comfort George, but looked at Christine Lacey on the sidelines, and then raised his arms high.
Lacey wanted to find a place to escape. For the first time, she discovered that she was so afraid of a man's gaze.
The ultimate Clippers officially ran aground at FedEx Arena!
