Five Hundred and Fifty Two: It Is Inevitable, Then Come On

In the first quarter, the two sides played more intensely than the previous one. After all, Paul started scoring. This time, the Clippers have one more scoring point that will explode at any time.

Paul used his practical actions to inspire his teammates. For example, Blake Griffin, he was more positive today than the last game.

He actively asked for the ball in the low post, actively attacked the basket, and actively defended... Griffin must still be a little afraid of Paul. Seeing that Big Brother is working so hard, Griffin also fought hard.

With the two superstars of the Clippers playing, the Grizzlies didn't take advantage of it. After the first quarter, the two sides were tied.

Paul scored 9 points, 3 assists and 1 steal in a single quarter, carrying the banner of the Clippers' counterattack. Griffin scored 7 points and 4 rebounds, and Randolph was "flanked" by Paul and Griffin.

Link also performed well, scoring 6 points, 3 assists and 3 rebounds in the first quarter, still maintaining his state, but with Paul being so brave, Link's performance was not enough to give the Grizzlies an advantage.

Link and Paul went head-to-head on the basketball court, bringing the star's charm to the extreme.

What fans are most interested in talking about is actually not the goals of Link and Paul, but the images of the two repeatedly spraying trash at each other.

The game full of gunpowder is what fans like to watch the most. Of course, the strong smell of gunpowder will also make players from both sides fight more and more fiercely on the court.

Isn't that the charm of confrontational movements.

During the break between festivals, Link rubbed his chest, which was aching from his elbows. Today, the Clippers' move is really big, and Paul has successfully conveyed his emotions to every Clippers player.

Moreover, Link's opponents, Barnes and Butler, are not good at each other, which makes Link's consumption even more in the confrontation.

Link could see that the Clippers made targeted defense today, and they just wanted to consume themselves as much as possible.

But Link was not worried, he believed he could handle it. After all, he had two more games than the Clippers before the series started.

Link's mind is now full of the showdown with Paul. The Paul guy is really in good shape today, scoring 9 points in a single quarter. This is not a statistic that Paul can come up with at any time.

Therefore, in the second quarter, the Grizzlies decided to focus their defense on Paul. As long as Paul can be contained, then this game will be no different from the last one.

With the sound of electronic beeps, the battle between the two sides continues!

On the Clippers side, the strongest lineup of Paul, Crawford, Barnes, Griffin and Jordan has been sent.

On the Grizzlies side, Iguodala took a temporary break and was replaced by Tony Allen, and the rest remained unchanged for the time being.

As soon as Paul came up, he controlled the ball aggressively, and Link really wanted to defend him himself. But helplessly, if Crawford is handed over to Conley, it is quite dangerous.

Paul was excited, but not impulsive. He wants to score, but he doesn't get distracted. Paul this guy is terrible, he rarely makes mistakes.

After a pick-and-roll with Jordan, Paul accelerated to kill the Grizzlies inside.

Randolph quit. In the first half, he was beaten into a pig head by Paul's throw. In this section, he could not allow Paul to repeat his old tricks.

So, Randolph did not hide in the penalty area this time, but stood in a high position to defend, the purpose was to keep Paul from getting close to the basket.

But what Randolph did not expect was that Paul still chose to throw the ball into the air in the middle distance!

Are you going to throw it so far? ?

When Randolph turned his head, he realized that he was so wrong!

Paul did throw the ball in the air, but not a throw, but a pass!

Because of Paul's threat, Randolph stands very forward, which provides enough space for Griffin.

Paul seized on this and threw an alley-oop to Griffin!

Griffin held the basketball in the air with both hands and slammed into the hoop. This kind of ball, even Gasol, the best defensive player, is far behind.

In the last game, in the second quarter, Link gave the Clippers a dismay. This time, it became Griffin to dispose of the Grizzlies.

"After Chris Paul started scoring, the Grizzlies defense had to adjust. But then the rest of the Clippers got their chance. That's Chris Paul, that's why he's MVP. The only point guard in the top five on the leaderboard!"

Kenny Smith is happy, he doesn't have any prejudice against the Grizzlies, he just doesn't want to see the game go down like this.

How boring it would be if every round of the playoffs was like the Grizzlies playing the Rockets.

In the next round, Gasol turned over and missed a jumper, and the Clippers got another opportunity to attack.

This time, Paul still attracted the defense of Conley and Randolph. The Grizzlies' defense now focuses on Paul, who is indeed a bigger threat than Griffin.

Having learned the lesson from the last time, Randolph kept his mind this time, and kept raising his arms to prevent Paul from passing lobs.

However, Paul is not the kind of person who eats the whole world with one trick. This time, he passed the low ball instead.

In the circle of Conley and Randolph, Paul hit the ground and passed the ball, and Griffin, who cut in, just got it!

Without hesitation, Griffin burst out again as if his legs were tied with explosives!

Randolph quickly shrank back, but Griffin was on his way! So, across Randolph's arm, the Clippers' No. 1 pick showed no mercy and smashed the basket hard!

Strictly speaking, Randolph was detained!

"Roar, the second dunk in a row, Paul and Griffin's connection is too tacit! The Clippers lead by 4 points, today, they refused to collapse in the second quarter!"

On the commentary stage, the T.N.T trio were very excited, but in the stands, the Grizzlies fans were silent.

These are the two most embarrassing rounds they have played in this year's playoffs so far.

"Easy, man, easy." Paul shrugged at Link, who really wanted to beat him up.

That stuff is so dead!

It is estimated that there are not a few players in the league with the same mood as Link. Now Link finally understands why Rondo is particularly jealous every time he sees Paul.

After the second quarter, the Clippers' offense was still smooth sailing. While the Grizzlies' offense isn't bad, they certainly won't be satisfied with such a defense.

Paul isn't a tough Westbrook, and when he's heavily guarded, he knows when to attack and when to pass.

Griffin has benefited the most. Throughout the second quarter, he scored 13 points in a single quarter! Counting the 7 points in the first quarter, Griffin is equivalent to scoring 20 points at halftime!

In the playoffs, this result has been very impressive.

Griffin was terrified, because Link found out that the guy was also learning from Paul's trash talk. Only, he sprayed Randolph.

The Clippers are so proud of themselves today!

"The Clippers played a smooth offense, that's what they did in the regular season! Griffin 13 points in a quarter, after this year's playoffs, I don't think people will question the potential of the 2009 No. 1 pick! Under Paul's guidance, the Grizzlies' defense became vulnerable!"

After halftime, the score turned, and the Grizzlies trailed by 8 points!

As a team that has allowed the opponent to score less than 80 points 10 times in the regular season, the Grizzlies let the Clippers score 60 points in the half court today, which is indeed not the level of defense they should have.

During the halftime interview, Chris Paul was sweating profusely and his chest heaved violently, but he was smug.

"When we were down 2-0 in the last round, people said we were screwed. But in the end, we were here! After losing the last game, people said we were screwed! But I believe that the only thing that's screwed is It's a Grizzly!"

After Paul finished speaking, he tapped the camera lightly with a fist.

Link was also not happy. With 15 points in the half, Link's performance was not bad. But in front of Griffin's 20 points in the half and Paul's 17 points and 7 assists in the half, it seemed insignificant.

The Grizzlies' defense completely collapsed in the second quarter. If it weren't for the rotation time to recover a little, it is estimated that they would be behind by double digits!

Trailing by double digits at halftime? This kind of humiliation, only the grizzly bear can give to others, and no one else can give it to the grizzly bear!

"In the second half, resume man-to-man." So, in the quiet locker room, Link suddenly suggested.

"Man-to-man...it's easy for Paul to find a scoring gap." Conley lowered his head and admitted that it was difficult for him to completely contain Paul today.

"It doesn't matter, Paul wants to score, let him score. In short, we can't let the Clippers play that smooth offense again. Paul scored a goal alone, better than the Clippers can all score. If Paul scores , I will return it! He enters one, I return one!"

Link looked at his teammates firmly, the war between stars and stars was inevitable.
