Who can stand it

It doesn't look at people and penetrates Duncan's passes, assists Randolph with both hands on the frame. His superb offensive footsteps have made Richard Jefferson, an old qualification, unable to resist. He continues to perform well in the fourth position, shattering Popovich's tactics.

Popovich stood on the sidelines, his mind full of the magical performance of the No. 0 today. After decades fighting in the NBA, Popovich and his Spurs have encountered all kinds of troubles. But the old man is sure that those troubles were not brought to them by the undraft. However, today, this record was broken.

At this time, the game had reached the fourth quarter. Since Link broke Bonner's three-pointer tactic in the second quarter, both sides have been grinding their positions. This game is probably set the lowest ratings record in all games today, using endless positional battles, too low hit rate, and simple offense and defense.

For fans who are watching the fun, this game is definitely not good-looking, or even dull. But for fans who are watching the tricks, the tactical cultivation of these two teams is amazing.

Especially the Memphis Grizzlies, although they rank eighth in the West, their tactical cultivation is really no worse than the Spurs. On the court, everyone's tactical execution ability is very good.

After nine minutes of the fourth quarter, the two sides were still in line. The Spurs only led the Grizzlies by one point, which was far from much advantage.

Hollins stopped the game again, and the Grizzlies fought hard with the Spurs throughout the game. But just now, after Ginobili used two free throws to help the Spurs lead by 1 point, Tony Allen's fouls have reached the fifth time! For Hollins, this is a red flag!

Ginobili has committed too many fouls today. So far, he has already made 16 goals at the free throw line! What is 16 goals? Until now, the Grizzlies' free throw count has only 16 goals.

Not only Tony Allen, another person on the back line, Xiao Kangli, had already committed fouls five times at this time. At first, Hollins didn't care much, thinking that if two people share the burden, they wouldn't have trouble with fouls. What's more, they were two defenders.

But at this time, Conley and Tony Allen had already committed five fouls, and Hollins felt that this was even more breathless than the 1-point gap.

"Damn it, the whistle was too tight today! That guy whistled as soon as he broke through. It was so fucking disgusting!" As soon as Tony Allen got out of the situation, he started to curse.

Ginobili is indeed a master of fouls, but the number of fouls he has committed is far less exaggerated than Martin and Harden. This season, Ginobili averaged only 3.7 free throws per game.

This shows how much whistle today is tilted towards the Spurs and Ginobili.

Today's game was played at the Spurs at home, and the Spurs are the number one in the West. This kind of team has the advantage in the whistle, and to be honest, it is not new in the league.

Hollins was a little troubled, which was too dangerous for the Grizzlies. Tony Allen and Conley, the two main players, would be forced to end up as long as they fouled again. Unfortunately, both of them would have missed them again.

Although there are only three minutes left in the game, this situation is still very likely to happen.

Hollins didn't want to sit and wait for death. He had thought about substitutions, but who should I use? Mayo? That guy was as "stable" as ever today, scoring 0 points from 0 of 3 shots, and Mayo was already on the road to death.

If Mayo comes up, the Spurs will be too happy.

So, Hollins has no one to replace. He must ensure that Tony Allen and Conley can play the last three minutes safely.

Then, now there is only one way.

"Link, next, you go defend Manu." Hollins said to his best player today.

※※※

22 points, 9 assists and 6 rebounds, which is the data that Link has already handed over today. After the All-Star Game, Link has also scored 18.5 points, 5 rebounds, 3.5 assists.

It can be said that Link is now completely on the right track. Both the performance on the court and the performance of the data are very good. Therefore, he has long become one of the players Hollins trusts most.

Link has been ordered to face danger more than once today. When the team cannot start the situation, he uses his personal offensive ability to break the deadlock. When the team is suppressed, he tops the fourth position to resolve the crisis. Now, when Tony Allen and Xiao Kangli both encounter fouls, Link stands up again.

His value to the grizzly bear is getting bigger and bigger.

After the timeout, Link and Conley played a pick-and-roll. This pick-and-roll was mainly created the illusion that Conley wanted to pass the ball to Link, but in fact, Conley made a breakthrough and layup by himself.

The tactics were executed very successfully. After the pick-and-roll, Link successfully attracted the Spurs' defensive attention. Conley seized the opportunity to enter the basket and scored a layup with a backhand.

"From when did Link attract the opponent's defensive attention? The Spurs are behind again, and this game will not end easily."

Conley performed well today, has scored 19 points and has a shooting percentage of 52.9%. But if he fouls again, he will not be able to help the team even if he performs well.

The Spurs naturally knew this, so their offense was left to the Argentinians, hoping that the "Demon Sword" could make one of Tony Allen and Conley go all out. However, this time, when Ginobili received the basketball again, Popovich and Ginobili were stunned for a moment.

The one who stood in front of Ginobili was neither Tony Allen nor Parker, but the No. 0 that created countless troubles for the Spurs!

"Damn it!" Popovich cursed inwardly. Whenever the Spurs were about to gain an advantage, Link always came out to disrupt the situation! He only took Bonner's fourth position to prevent the fire from being dulled in the second quarter. Now, please find the second position again!

Ginobili did not fight Link hard, but instead made a stern cover with Duncan. Link did not hesitate and directly dragged back and bypassed the pick-and-roll.

Seeing this, Ginobili pulled up from outside the three-point line and shot! If your opponent defends the pick-and-roll in a drag way, the offensive side will get a fleeting shot opportunity, and the Argentinian doesn't want to let it go.

Seeing Ginobili seized the opportunity to make a three-pointer, Link was not nervous at all. He deliberately lured Ginobili to shoot a three-pointer! Today, Ginobili performed well in all aspects, but his three-point shooting percentage was very eye-catching. The Grizzlies would rather let Ginobili make a three-pointer than watch him break through and cause damage.

Sure enough, the next second after Ginobili shot, the basketball hit the right side of the basket and failed to hit! 2 of 8 shots, with a shooting percentage of 25%. Ginobili still couldn't find the touch outside the three-point line!

"Calm down, Manu, break through to the inside and take action!"

Popovich shouted from the outside in a hurry that Ginobili is definitely a player who makes Popovich love and hate. His passing is always between the five best balls and the turnover. His offense is always so slutty that it is not like the Spurs' style. His offensive stability occasionally gives Popovich a headache.

Today, Ginobili's three-pointer was very unstable, but that guy wanted to make a shot but Popovich believed that the Argentinian would adjust it by himself.

Watching Link bring Ginobili into the pit in the first round, Hollins was very pleased. Link would not mess up any task he gave to Link! Now, they have the opportunity to widen the score!

This time, Link received the ball directly outside the three-point line. At this moment, Link did not serve as an off-ball shooter, but would attack with the ball.

Randolph and Gasol Jr. were both lost today, and Tony Allen was not a scorer. Therefore, the offense basically depends on Link and Conley.

Although the Spurs' defense is strong, not every game can limit everyone. Otherwise, the Spurs will be the championship every year.

Link almost gave Richard Jefferson a psychological shadow today. This veteran was still treated with the enemy without any underestimation.

Link did not want to cover, but all played singles for him. Ginobili wanted to assist in defense, after all, Tony Allen couldn't shoot. But when he thought that Tony Allen's cutting and Link's passing were always very tacit, the Argentinian gave up this idea.

"Stand it, man." Ginobili could only pray silently for Jefferson in his heart.

I really can't hold on. Jefferson is basically a role player now, and his condition has also declined significantly after he is over 30 years old.

Link didn't be polite with Jefferson, and directly pushed forward with the ball on his back. Popovich felt strange. Why did Link's offense look more and more like the crazy man in Los Angeles?

Jefferson covered Link with his slender arms, preventing him from turning over and jumping. But Link could feel that Jefferson's center of gravity was forward.

So Link took Jefferson as the axis and turned around flexibly, and stepped over Jefferson who was too high in the center of gravity!

"With superb footsteps, he is simply an offensive kaleidoscope."

Amid Stephen Cole's praise, Link made a throw shot after breaking through. Duncan made a quick defense this time, but in most cases, the attack method of throwing can't be seen. If he can, it will basically interfere with the ball.

Link still had a soft touch. Although he had physical contact with Duncan, he still threw the ball steadily.

The score difference was overtaken by 3 points, and the Spurs were in crisis!

"Jefferson has no choice but to use Link today, really has no choice. He has already scored 24 points for that No. 0, which is the highest individual score for the Grizzlies today. The Spurs must cheer up as soon as possible, and the Grizzlies are getting closer and closer to victory."

The Spurs also want to cheer up, but they don’t want to go to any basketball game. Ginobili was stared at by Link again and didn’t get a chance, so he had to hit Duncan.

Duncan played Randolph behind his back, but encountered strong obstacles. Randolph completely failed on the offensive end today. Apart from the few wonderful passes and dunks that Link gave him, he basically had no offensive performance.

But because of this, Randolph wanted to use hard defense to fill his lack of offensive end.

In the end, Duncan's hook shot really failed to hit. Once the Big Black Bear was ruthless, his single defense ability was also very strong. Duncan had already made 3 of 8 shots today, and his shooting percentage was only 37.5%. Randolph's attitude today was very clear. I can't score, and you don't think about scoring.

Popovich clenched his fists and began to nervous! As the game time was getting less and less, the Spurs' scoring was stagnant. Now they were 3 points behind, and the Grizzlies were still attacking. If they couldn't defend this time, then with only one minute left in the game time, the situation would be really dangerous.

Conley still handed the ball to Link in the past half, and it was this No. 0 that pushed the Spurs to the edge of the cliff. At this time, he was planning to push another move.

"Defend this attack!" Popovich shouted in the field in a trumpet-shaped manner with both hands, and the Spurs players were all focused.

Link did not play singles with the ball, but instead played with Conley. Bathil said it well, only if you use different methods to deal with the opponent can the opponent not guess you. This is the case with defense and the attack.

Hand-handed cooperation is a common trick of Link and Conley. When Link hand-handed the ball to Conley, he will always take the opportunity to help Conley get rid of the defender.

This time was no exception. Parker was blocked by Link. After Link made the screen, he immediately cut in and received a pass from Conley, which made Parker and Jefferson nervous.

After the cover, Parker thought Jefferson would go after Conley, and Jefferson also thought Parker would go around and continue to defend Conley. However, when they found that they were chasing Link, they were shocked.

"It's over!" Popovich, who was off the field, cursed inwardly.

The next second, Link gave the ball to Conley. Because Link attracted two people to defend, Conley was unmarked!

Today, he was very efficient and took action outside the three-point line, and the hearts of all San Antonios were in their throats.

But the desperate thing happened. Conley's three-point line was hollowed into the net, as if piercing the Spurs' chest.

In the last minute, the Memphis Grizzlies led the Spurs by 6 points! After this assist, Link also scored a double-double with 24 points and 10 assists.

"This is a pass that smashed the Spurs' hard defense!" Stephen Cole commented on Link's assist.

This is the third time Link scored a double-double in his career! And this double-double will likely lead to the Spurs' defeat!

Seeing Conley scored a goal, Link raised his arms and shouted, venting his anxiety and anxiety over the past few days. This time, he felt that his psychological burden suddenly became much lighter.
