Kendrick Nunn sat on the bench, his eyes were dull.

This 24-year-old defender, known as the strongest undraft after Link, has a very bleak data today.

Now that the game is in the fourth quarter, Nunn made only 3 of 13 shots in the game, scoring only 10 points.

At first glance, it is quite good to get 10 points in a undraft.

But it is not the case that only scored 10 points on the premise of 13 shots.

As the saying goes, if my grandma has 13 mobile phone calls, she can get 10 points.

This may be the game that Nunn has performed the most like a undraft game in his career so far.

Almost from the first quarter, he completely lost his rhythm.

And all of this is because of the Grizzly Bear No. 0.

Link's powerful performance and sharp trash words made Nunn completely lose his confidence, so he became very hesitant on the court.

Hesitation, this is quite deadly on the basketball court.

In the NBA alliance where opportunities are calculated in seconds, every hesitation is equivalent to a waste of opportunity.

Nunn wasted a lot of opportunities on the court today. He hesitated when it was time to pass the ball. When he wanted to pass, his pass route was blocked.

He didn't shoot when it was time to shoot after the opportunity was made. After he hesitated, he instead shot against the defense.

Nunn acted like a player who had worked hard in college for four years today. Generally speaking, older rookies are definitely quite calm on the court even if they are not very strong in strength and talent.

But Nunn was like a headless fly on the court today, making a complete negative contribution.

It is precisely because of this that he is now sitting on the bench. Since Nunn's performance today was so terrible, Spoelstra replaced Nunn with the experienced Dragic early on.

Nunn was not upset when he was replaced, but was very grateful.

His first thought after being replaced by Dragic was: "I was finally saved."

But now, Nunn is extremely distressed.

At this time, on the basketball court, Link swiped past Butler from outside the three-point line, broke into the basket, and forced a layup against Adebayo's block.

In the air, Adebayo raised his arms high. Link also leaned back because of the confrontation with Adebayo.

But Link threw the basketball steadily towards the rebound with his body tilted, and then refracted it into the net.

The referee whistle, the score is valid, and another 2+1!

This extremely difficult forced layup made the noise in the Federal Express Arena twice as loud.

On the other side of the court, the players on the Grizzlies' bench were also in full swing. Howard even rushed into the court and waved the towel frantically, so that he almost got a technical foul by the referee.

But Kendrick Nunn was sitting calmly in his position, out of place with the atmosphere on the scene.

The reason why Nunn is so calm is not because he doesn't like the goal just now, but because he has been shocked by Link several times today.

Link has performed such a slutty operation in front of Nunn today. Every time Link scores a goal, Nunn will sigh in his heart, "How could this guy do it?"

So much so that after being completely beaten and autistic, Nunn is no longer surprised.

No matter how incredible the goal Link scored, he would not be surprised. Because he knew that Link was such an incredible player.

Seeing the fans in the stands so excited, Nunn wanted to stand up and shout at them: "Sit down, just a routine operation."

Beside Nunn, his coach Spolstra also lowered his head.

After that goal just now, Link had already scored 37th point in the game. The difference between the two teams was once again widened to 26 points.

Today, the Heat were widened to 20 points in the first quarter by the Grizzlies. Therefore, the subsequent development was as Spoelstra expected. The Heat had broken their legs and failed to catch up with the Grizzlies.

Until now, the score difference has not been approached.

After the first quarter, the Heat's closest score difference was that they caught only 12 points.

During that time, Link came off the court and the Grizzlies' super sixth man Rose led the team to fight to the death with the Heat.

As a result, as soon as Link came back, he expanded the score difference to 20 points.

Spoelstra smiled helplessly. Several years ago, he had never played the Grizzlies with a "full-level account" like the Big Three of the Heat.

Nowadays, it seems that there is indeed no strength to beat the Grizzlies.

Linke made a free throw and scored the 38th point of the game. Spoelstra called a timeout and stood up.

Jimmy Butler walked to the sidelines with sweating profusely, and Spolstra opened his arms, intending to embrace his leading star.

While hugging, the Filipino coach put his mouth to Butler's ear and said softly: "Stop, Jimmy, you're exhausted today."

Butler was stunned after hearing this, and lowered his arms.

He knew that Spolstra was planning to get the game into garbage time.

Although the Heat have lost 7 games this season, none of these 7 games is a big defeat.

In every game, the resolute Heat picked up the bayonet and fought with their opponents until the last moment.

It's like the game when the Heat lost to the Lakers a few days ago, although James and Davis scored 61 points together, and their shooting percentage exceeded 50%.

But the Heat didn't lose until they scored three points in the last second.

Butler has no idea what garbage time is until now this season.

But today, the Heat were defeated in an unsatisfactory manner.

Facts have proved that in the face of absolute strength gap, a tenacious heart is useless.

"I get it." Butler replied softly, then sat back on the bench and covered his head with a towel.

In this game, Butler scored 20 points, plus 5 rebounds and 7 assists.

To be honest, his performance is not bad.

However, compared with Link's performance, Butler's performance is indeed not at the same level.

His performance is not enough to lead the Heat to reverse the situation.

When I was with Link before, Butler always felt that no matter how big the gap was, as long as the game was determined and as long as the game was not over, there would definitely be hope.

But now he realized that it was because Link silently took everything, because Link had the ability to lead the team to reverse the game.

The same thing happened to him and he was powerless at all.

Butler and Nunn just sat on the bench without saying a word.

They may be very similar to Link and Butler back then, but they are just very similar.

A combination that can lead a team to establish a three-game winning streak is not so easy to replicate.

After the game started again, the Grizzlies also replaced all the main players with tacit understanding. Although Link scored another goal, his personal score would break through the 40 mark.

But Link has never been very interested in the kind of scoring things.

Whether to score those two points or not, he is the biggest winner today.

124 to 105, the Heat finally narrowed the gap to less than 20 points by relying on the "raise" of garbage time.

But this still cannot change the fact that this game is the Heat's most tragic defeat this season.

The "replica grizzly bear" who was given high expectations has no power to fight back in front of the genuine version.

After the game, Link raised his arms high with great pride.

He rarely celebrates so excitedly after an ordinary regular season victory, which only shows that the victory of this game is of great significance to Link.

The first ten consecutive wins this season is indeed of great significance.

From last summer to now, the Grizzlies have experienced the disbandment of the dynasty lineup, the contempt of the outside world, and the storm of Link's retirement.

Almost no one believes that the Grizzlies have the ability to win the championship for four consecutive years. No one believes that Link can surpass Jordan with his performance this season.

So from the beginning of the season, Link held his breath. He wanted to prove that the Memphis Grizzlies were still as strong as before! He wanted to prove that as long as this team had itself, they would never decline.

Finally, he did it.

With everyone's doubts and insults, and with the crowds of highly competitive teams this season.

The Grizzlies' first ten-game winning streak this season finally got their hands on!

This is the end of a stage, and of course, it is also the beginning of the Grizzly Road to Rule!

At this time, Jimmy Butler, who was extremely cold to Link before the game, took the initiative to walk towards Link.

The game was over and their hostility ended. Now Butler is willing to talk to Link.

"Congratulations, Link, although I'm actually very unwilling to give up." Butler shook his head and opened the game, but he didn't know that he was beaten so badly.

"Keep working hard, I believe you and the Heat will do further. You have a group of outstanding teammates, Jimmy." Link patted Butler on the shoulder, although Butler was already 30.

But in Link's heart, he will always be the younger brother who needs encouragement.

"What's the use of going further? You can't beat you...Okay, let's not talk about this anymore, don't take it lightly. There are many strong teams this season."

"Hahaha, you're still worried about yourself, Jimmy."

After the two of them said that, they both let go of their hands holding each other and were about to turn around and leave.

At this moment, Link suddenly stopped and called Butler again.

"Jimmy."

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing. I just want you to tell that guy Nunn that next time I come to the Federal Express Arena, don't make me angry anymore. Otherwise, I'll make him a good kid."
