Two Hundred and Eighty-Four: If the Worst Happens...

As a fan, Link didn't really pay much attention to Curry before Steve Kerr's Warriors really took shape, and it was even less likely that Curry could become a superstar.

In the impression of the fans at that time, the backcourt formed by Curry and Ellis was powerful, but because the Warriors had not achieved results, he and Ellis gave people the impression of being a bad team brush.

But now, Link has a deep understanding that Curry was strong a long time ago! Although it was only half-time, it was amazing to be able to score 5-for-5 in half-time!

Yesterday, Link made 4 of 6 three-pointers and was blown away by the media. As a result, today, Curry made a 5-for-5 at halftime, which was like a slap in the face and slapped Link's face.

However, this is what Curry wants. He has to prove he is no worse than any player in the 3-point contest, including Link.

Sitting in the locker room, Link was still thinking about Curry's three-point shot today. In the future, Curry and Thompson will break many records, most of which are related to 3-pointers.

And in the games where this kind of record was born, the Warriors basically won big, and their opponents were basically slaughtered.

But Link doesn't want to be slaughtered. If he can't beat Curry in his childhood, can he still fight in the future? What's more, it is difficult for Link to accept the overturning of the weak team. So today no matter what, you have to bite down!

Even if the Thunder roll over, the Grizzlies don't need to go the same way.

Not long after, Hollins also pushed the door and walked into the dressing room. The players all looked up and looked at their coach.

"In the second quarter, I need you to strengthen the offense! Pass the ball to me and make all the points come alive. The Warriors' defense is not strong, we need to seize this weakness and attack!"

Hollins wasted no time and started talking about tactics as soon as he walked into the locker room.

Perhaps, even Hollins, a defensive idiot, knows that defense alone might not be enough today. When a player can score 23 points in a half court and make 5 of 5 three-pointers in a half court, it does not mean that his opponent's defense is too weak, but that his own hand is so good that he may ignore the defense.

What's more, in addition to Curry, there is also a 17-point halftime Ellis.

17 points in the half is exaggerated enough, but Ellis was stunned by Curry. So Hollins has reason to believe that Ellis will attack even more crazy in the second half.

Since you can't keep up,

Might as well give it a go!

After that, Hollins began to develop a detailed offensive strategy on the tactical board. Hollins emphasizes sharing the ball and blooming more. Because alone, it's hard for the Grizzlies to have someone who can play the terrible state of Curry and Ellis.

In this way, Hollins needs everyone to pass the ball, everyone to shoot, completely attacking attacking, and using violence to control violence!

15 points, have to rely on offense to fill up.

Curry finally felt relieved, and he felt as if he had embraced the world again.

Sitting in the stands in the basketball arena as a child, Curry always fantasized about being able to run the court like his father one day. The repeated injuries this season have even made him doubt himself.

But for now, Curry thinks he can continue his dream.

"Stephen, take more shots in the second half, we must continue to widen the point difference." Just when Curry was secretly excited, Monta Ellis said something to him.

For the first two years, Curry and Ellis didn't have a good relationship. After all, the positions of the two are somewhat overlapping and the functions are somewhat duplicated. And Ellis considers himself the core of the Warriors, so he must not like Curry who will threaten his status.

But this year, the relationship between the two sides has eased a lot, and there has been more and more cooperation on the court. Although there will still be open and secret fights on the court, compared to the previous two years, the fight between the two can be considered a virtuous circle.

Ellis is now willing to share the ball with his little brother, as long as he can win.

Curry nodded and said nothing. A thousand words are not as good as a three-pointer on the field!

The warriors had their guns loaded and ready to fire again.

※※※

Link looked up at the big screen at the scene, 65 to 50, the Grizzlies trailed by 15 points.

Seeing this score, all Grizzlies players' nerves will tighten. If Curry and Ellis continue to play the state they were in the first half, it is estimated that the fourth quarter will not be finished, and the game will be over.

"Nervous?"

Hearing someone talking to him, Link turned his head, it was Randolph.

"Nervous? No, I'm not nervous at all." Link shook his head, stepped into the court, and waited for the game to start.

"That's right, we don't need to be nervous. You are the starting forward for the All-Star team, Mark is the backup center for the All-Star team, and I'm a former All-Star player. Our configuration is like a big three."

Link is speechless, shameless and invincible! What and what is the Big Three.

"So, nothing to be afraid of. The Grizzlies are just hibernating, but in the spring, it's time to wake up and feed. Come on, we've got a half game of spring. Stephen Curry is amazing, but this is Memphis. !" After speaking, Randolph patted Link on the shoulder and ran to serve the baseline ball.

Link smiled, Randolph was trying to arouse his fighting spirit. When it was time to show leadership, Randolph did not refuse.

But Zach got it wrong - even if he didn't motivate Link, Link was full of fighting spirit!

Only 15 minutes, with force, this "boulder" will be pushed away!

"The second half of the game officially started. We don't know if Stephen and Monta can continue their performance in the first half. But the Warriors have gained a huge advantage, and they can control the rhythm as they want." Hubie Brown's voice sounded very worried, Hubby was nervous as Curry and Ellis approached the Grizzlies' half.

The Warriors' offense runs smoothly under Mark Jackson, with runs and screens that never seem to stop.

Of course, this isn't the ultimate form of the Warriors' offense. The Warriors will be tougher when Mark Jackson develops the liftgate and promotes Thompson.

But now this warrior is tough enough.

Conley pressed Curry as close as he always did, and the physical contact was tougher and more frequent.

On the other hand, Link tried to keep up with Ellis' pace, trying not to be thrown off.

In the end, Curry took the cover of David Lee and made a direct three-pointer!

Only this time, Randolph was not attracted by David Lee, but ran to interfere with Curry's shot the moment the pick-and-roll was formed.

In the end, the basketball came out of the box, and Curry's 100% three-point shooting rate was finally broken!

Link took the rebound personally, and then quickly went to Conley. Conley didn't wait for the black and white bears, and ran with Guy first!

Guy rides like a thousand, rushes to the front, and is about to catch the ball! But Guy's opponent, Dorell Wright, gave Guy a lot of interference in the air.

Wright is not a solid defensive player who loves fake moves. But his excellent physical fitness and excellent wingspan made him not afraid of confrontation!

In the end, under the fierce physical collision, Guy's forced layup knocked out of the frame, and the Grizzlies missed an opportunity to narrow the point difference!

Ellis jumped high to prepare for the rebound. Before jumping, he glanced at Curry's position in advance, preparing to pass the ball directly in the air!

However, just when Ellis's palm was about to touch the basketball, he felt a slam on his back, and his whole body suddenly sank!

The next second, the basket above Ellis' head made a loud noise! Only then did he know that he had been detained! Moreover, it is still a supplementary deduction!

"Link! His follow-up was very positive! Link pushed the basketball back into the frame across Monta Ellis! There is no doubt that this was a shot that boosted morale!" Hubie Brown The old man wanted to stand up and cheer, but suddenly found that his legs were really bad, so he could only sit on the stool and shout.

After Link landed, he patted Ellis on the chest to demonstrate, and the lifeless Federal Express Arena finally cheered.

"Damn it!" Ellis was so angry that this undrafted draft was too wild!

So in the next attack, the irritated Ellis ignored Curry, who ran out of the gap, and made a mid-range shot.

Link blocked it in time. He was not afraid of Ellis's feint, but only his speed. He knows how competitive this guy is. Just now, Link deliberately provoked Ellis in order to disrupt his sanity on the offensive end.

Once Ellis's brain heats up, it might be a good thing for the Grizzlies.

Looking at Ellis's picturesque blacksmithing, Curry was stunned. Didn't he just say he was willing to pass the ball? play me!

The Warriors attacked the iron for the second time in a row. Link directly pointed the ball to Conley in the air, which was equivalent to passing the ball directly while grabbing the board.

Conley pushed forward at a high speed, and Curry hurriedly posted it. But it must be said that Curry's defense is really too weak in this period. Conley isn't a heavy-duty guard, but he can easily play against Curry.

In the end, Conley drove straight in, steered away from Curry and put the ball in.

With only 11 points left, the Grizzlies used their offense to remind the Warriors that we are the stronger side!

In the next attack, Link made a breakthrough and assisted Randolph with a mid-range jumper.

24 seconds later, Link repeated his old trick. Only this time, it was Gasol Jr. who made the half basket.

Biedrins and David Lee were played so much that they didn't know whether to protect the rim or follow out to block shots.

For the third time, Mark Jackson let his two elders stick close to the black and white bears. As a result, Guy easily entered the penalty area and used a tomahawk-style dunk to completely stop the warriors!

The Grizzlies used their all-in-one configuration to kill the Warriors, led by only two guards. The more blooming offense always makes the Warriors take care of one thing and the other.

"Beautiful dunk, assists from Link. The Grizzlies were all soldiers in the third quarter, and the Warriors didn't know how to defend at all. Link had 6 points and 4 assists in a single quarter, and he almost became the Grizzlies' offensive player. Main axis. Now that the Grizzlies are 5 points away from tying the game, the Warriors' hopes of an early win are shattered!"

"It's true that the Grizzlies offense was a bit like the Spurs in this game. But don't forget, they're still behind, and Curry and Monta Ellis aren't going to catch up. So, this game has to be played. If Who do you think will end the game today if it's the last minute of the game? Curry and Ellis, or the Grizzlies?"

Faced with this question, Hubie Brown did not answer. He hoped that the game didn't have to be hit so hard that it would be best for the Grizzlies to win the game.

But in basketball, the worst-case scenario has to be taken into account. Because the worst is often the easiest to happen...
