Leonard stole James at the last moment and showed Davis's scene, becoming the most popular shot in the past few days.

The historical defensive performance of the "Facial Paralyzer" can't help but make people feel sweaty.

Although the Grizzlies have not encountered any trouble so far in the playoffs, they have never lost, showing their extremely strong dominance.

But the strength of the Clippers cannot be confused with the Mavericks and the Jazz.

Of course, the Mavericks and the Jazz are not weak either, but they are not championship teams after all. If you let the Mavericks and the Jazz fight against the Lakers, they will never be able to hold on until Game 7.

Moreover, in the regular season, the Clippers are also the team that has caused the most trouble for the Grizzlies, no doubt about it.

The Grizzlies have played against the Clippers four times this season, and have only achieved a record of 2 wins and 2 losses.

You know, the Grizzlies have only lost seven games this season. Among them, the Clippers have occupied two!

The two times the Grizzlies won, one was 119 to 118 and the other was 113 to 112, both of which only beat the Clippers by 1 point!

This is the strength of the Los Angeles Clippers.

They didn't suddenly become strong in the playoffs.

Therefore, it is reasonable for people to worry about the fate of Link and the Grizzlies now.

The Los Angeles Clippers have become the biggest obstacle to Link's path to becoming a god.

As soon as the Western Conference semi-finals ended, the showdown between the Grizzlies and the Clippers became a hot topic among fans.

No one knows whether Leonard can become famous in the West and fight to become the gods while stepping on Link's legendary back.

No one knows whether Link can survive the Clippers' difficulty and continue to move towards the goal of four consecutive championships.

For fans Leso, Link and Leonard, no matter who wins this year, this will be a battle for the gods.

But I didn't expect that in the last playoffs of Link's career, there was neither Durant nor James.

His opponent is Leonard, who has always had a low presence before.

But this did not affect the fans' enthusiasm for this round of the Western Conference Finals at all.

"Others' last season is just enjoying the game easily and then leaving the place they fought for with the blessings of the fans. But Link, he still has to face a difficult challenge than before, which is really not easy."

"Leonard's defense at critical moments is quite amazing, and Link's offense at critical moments can often kill the game. In the next round of the series, there may be a wonderful showdown between spear and shield."

"Kavay Leonard said he could not predict the results of the series, and in fact, no one could predict. The Grizzlies have shown their strength, but the Clippers are not bad either. I have no idea who will be the winner in the end."

Like in previous years, the popularity of the Western Conference Finals remains high.

Although there is Antetokounmpo, a new generation of championship candidates, there is still no way to compare the attention of the Eastern Conference Finals with the Western Conference Finals.

Link finally waited for the first threatening opponent this season's playoffs, and Leonard also got the chance to revenge as he wished.

This powerful dialogue touched the hearts of all basketball fans.

People thought that before this year's Western Conference Finals, the two sides would have a shocking battle of saliva to warm up the game, just like when they played against the Warriors.

But unexpectedly, the Clippers and Grizzlies players have been surprisingly quiet these two days, and there is not even any news worth mentioning on the players' social media.

There is no trash talk, no "father-son bureau", and no verbal battle.

Both sides are like two unrelated teams, each going their own way without disturbing each other.

Beverly and Link shouted in trash, and they also entered a state of being still.

The fans who were waiting to eat the melons were depressed. In the face of such an important game, both sides did not express any of them at all?

There is really no, because both sides are nervously preparing for the game at this time and have no intention of worrying about anything else.

Besides, Link is a "passive defensive" keyboard warrior. Only when others take the initiative to cause trouble can Link perform.

When Link encountered a person who was so dull and silent like Leonard, he had no choice...

In this way, the days of the Western Conference Finals are approaching day by day. In the days before the battle, it is so calm that it makes people want to doze off.

Although some media helped to promote the fire, the people involved in both parties did not come to tear each other, and the popularity has never been hyped up.

The atmosphere of war that has finally been created has gradually dissipated due to the calmness of the past few days.

Finally, on May 14, the Western Conference Finals battle started as scheduled at the Federal Express Arena.

If this game started a few days later, fans would probably forget that the NBA playoffs were still going on.

Before the game started, Stephen A. Stumbling Sticker Smith was thrusting between the Clippers and the Grizzlies, hoping to help both sides light up the fire.

But the Grizzlies and Clippers players were very calm, and they answered lukewarmly in the face of some tricky questions.

When Link said, "Would you worry about being stopped by Leonard on the way to win the championship", he just underestimated the word: "Of course."

When Leonard faced the question of "Do you want to do your best to drag Link off the altar?", his answer was also very brief: "If you don't want to win, what am I doing here?"

After Stephen A. Smith interviewed the two, he felt an embarrassing cool breeze blew...

No, where does the wind come from in the indoor stadium?

There is only embarrassment.

Overall, the atmosphere before the game started was far less enthusiastic than everyone thought.

It's like, it's just an ordinary regular season game.

Before the game started, only George, Harrell and Link greeted him, while other Clippers players did not contact the Grizzlies players at all.

This made the game less topical.

The fans were a little embarrassed. They were looking forward to this game, but for some reason, they just didn't have that passion...

But after the competition really started, the situation changed 180°!

The coldness of both sides before the game starts, the fierce fighting between both sides after the game starts!

Leonard did not lie, he just wanted to use his actions to interpret the tragic level of this round of the Western Conference Finals!

As soon as the game started, Paul George, who was assisting in defense, made a layup from behind.

Link is one of the few players who have been blocked the lowest in the league. Generally speaking, it is a delusion to block Link.

But today, George completed the blocking of Link as soon as he came up. This was mainly because Leonard blocked the front very promptly, which gave George the opportunity to Dajie.

The Clippers' strongest forward line has become even more brutal than in the regular season after experiencing the baptism of James and Davis.

Of course, soon Jamie Green used his arm length advantage to slap Paul George's layup to the stands through Dillon Brooks.

Link's idea of ​​"reciting reciprocity" has been passed on to every teammate.

Two rounds in the first game, two big shots appeared.

As soon as they came up, the two sides fought to the point of not giving in to each other and were very cruel.

These two rounds have also become a microcosm of today's entire game.

Afterwards, the whole game was like a replica of the Clippers and Lakers series.

Since, the two sides fought very fiercely, no one could get rid of anyone.

George and Leonard did play better than they did in the regular season, and Harrell and Luvia played the role of their strongest substitute combination.

During the halftime break, the two sides tied at 58. Jogel, who was interviewed by reporters, also bluntly said: "This is the most difficult game we have ever played since we entered the playoffs."

Link was not surprised by this situation. He experienced the Clippers' outstanding strength during the regular season.

But he was not worried. Who would know the result until the end?

In the second half, the anxious situation did not ease at all. The two sides led alternately, and the star showdown made fans excited.

In the last minute and a half of the game, the Grizzlies, who were two points behind, took the ball.

At this time, although the Grizzlies were behind, the fans in the Federal Express Arena were still full of confidence.

They believe Link is capable at critical moments.

After Conley controlled the ball outside the three-point line, he was about to find Link who was out of the pocket.

But unexpectedly, as soon as Conley made the ball, Leonard stretched out his long arm and suddenly accelerated, destroying the pass!

Although Leonard did not hold the ball directly, being able to interrupt the pass would be considered successful.

Sure enough, the next second, Paul George rushed up to pick up the basketball, then threw the ball to the side in Link's pursuit, assisting Harrell to take the lead.

Seeing Harrell's dunk land, Link shook his head.

If Harrell hadn't restricted Siakam last season, it was unknown whether the Grizzlies could still establish a dynasty. He was one of the most important members of the Grizzlies' last three consecutive championships.

Unexpectedly, just a year later, he became the other party's sharp knife.

Well, maybe I shouldn't have persuaded them to leave at the beginning...

The score difference was widened to 4 points, and the Grizzlies became more and more dangerous.

Afterwards, Link personally broke through with the ball. Just as he plunged into the penalty area and prepared to make a layup, Leonard attacked everything!

Leonard's cutting timing was almost perfect, and he was equal to Link. Although Leonard still failed to get the ball directly, the ball was finally hit on Link's thigh.

Clippers' ball rights!

Two consecutive mistakes at critical moments made the Grizzlies very passive.

But Link never expected that this was just the beginning.

In the last 38 seconds, the Grizzlies, who were 6 points behind, still had a glimmer of hope. Jokic held the ball and supported him at a high position. Link bypassed Jokic and prepared to catch the ball, and Leonard also followed Link around.

But just as Link and Jokic were about to hand over the ball, Link suddenly ran back and moved to the other side!

The fake pass cooperation between Jokic and Link is always tried and tested at critical moments.

But this time, Leonard was not deceived! He reacted in time and stole the ball at the moment when Jokic passed the ball!

With three consecutive steals, Leonard ended the game with his super god defense at a critical moment!

After grabbing the basketball, before Link could even foul, Leonard gave the ball to George, who had already started.

The latter forced a layup against Dillon Brooks, easily scored the ball, and had to add free throws!

At that moment, all the Clippers players raised their arms high, and they knew that they would win this battle!

"Damn, it's really difficult." Link shook his head. With these three steals, Leonard was about to become popular again.

With Leonard's key steal, the Clippers finally defeated the Grizzlies 118-111 and achieved a good start in the Western Conference Finals.

Fans in the Federal Express Arena also experienced the feeling of defeat for the first time.

The Los Angeles Clippers are indeed extraordinary.

They are worthy of being the strongest opponents of the Grizzlies in the West!

Link was a little annoyed, but not desperate.

Just like what he told himself during the intermission, who knows the result until the end?

The end of this game is not the end, but there are seven games to be played in the series.
Chapter completed!
