Cavay Leonard, a year ago, few people knew the guy's name. But now, he is the darling of San Antonio people.

However, today, the San Antonio man's darling was struggling. Leonard made 3 of 3-pointers in the last game, which made him gain popularity and attention. But today, Leonard almost disappeared on the offensive end.

Link proves with his own practical actions that I am not so easily defeated!

Give up the competition? The big deal about slipping around the world.

Leonard received the basketball outside the three-point line. According to the tactics, Parker just passed it to Leonard for a transfer.

But even so, Link did not relax his pressing on Leonard. Link directly raised his arms and pressed against Leonard, and the two of them were almost together.

The Spurs' offense was interrupted, and Honard's transit point could not be scored for a while. This was a huge blow to the Spurs, which relied on teams and systems to attack.

Leonard held up the basketball high, and the only thing he could do now was to keep the basketball from being intercepted by Link. So, he didn't dare to put the ball down at all.

Link continued to press but did not foul. Combined with the video and Link's understanding of future Leonard, he knew very well that Leonard's biggest shortcoming at this time was not shooting, but lack of shooting ability!

After receiving the basketball, Leonard was very hesitant to pass the ball, and when facing pressing and double-teaming, Leonard was also very prone to make mistakes.

However, since Leonard is just a 3D player now, few teams will double-team or press on him. Therefore, Leonard's shortcomings are not so easy to detect.

But unfortunately, since being suppressed by Leonard in the last game, Link has made up his mind to beat Leonard to death. He will seize all of Leonard's shortcomings and hit him hard!

Leonard hesitated for a long time in Link's pressing and finally made a hasty shot. The passer was Ginobili who came out to meet him.

But Leonard's pass was slow and floating, and he could not play the role of transferring the ball at all. Tony Allen, who was chasing Ginobili, rushed forward and destroyed the bad pass.

If there is a mistake, there will be a counterattack.

After Tony Allen intercepted the ball, he immediately sent the ball to Conley. Conley passed the ball to Link. When faced with Leonard's defense, Link used a European step to shake the space and hit it easily.

After Link scored a goal, the cheers in the center of Att ushered in the lowest point of today. This No. 0 whistled to the sky, venting all the aggrievances in his heart.

"23 points, 4 rebounds, 6 assists, and most importantly, Link's shooting percentage is as high as 60% today! Leonard's defense doesn't seem to work very well. Link's extreme control in details today allows him to always find fleeting gaps!"

Cole must blow up Link's offense today, from data to viewing, like a top scorer.

It can be seen that Leonard's defense has not become weaker and is still strong. However, Link adjusted in time to adapt to this powerful defense.

He couldn't defend against Link on the defensive end, and Leonard also had a bloody crash on the offensive end today.

In the last game, he scored 16 points with 3 of 3 three-pointers, and today he has made 2 of 6 shots, with only 4 points being recorded.

This is also because Leonard didn't make a fuss. After shooting 6, he didn't attack any more. Otherwise, the shooting percentage might be lower.

Of course, Leonard must have no hope of turning around today. After all, after this counterattack, the whole game will end with only 3 minutes left. The Spurs are already 8 points behind.

Although Leonard did not play as expected today, Duncan and Parker played well. Both of them were very efficient today, which prevented the Grizzlies from completely breaking the score.

But until now, Duncan and Parker's offensive stability has begun to decline. It is indeed a bit difficult to put the offensive pressure of the entire team on these two players who are already very low in the grades.

Link's goal gave Popovich a timeout again. The old man could see that after Link lost to Leonard the day before yesterday, he must have done extremely detailed research on Leonard.

God knows how many game videos he has watched, but in short, Link completely grasped all of Leonard's weaknesses today.

Such an opponent is really terrible!

"Stephen, you come out and continue to grin with Link. Spend him, interfere with him, and make his score less smooth. We are not finished yet, and no one is allowed to give up! I can only accept that we will take a 2-0 score to Memphis. The other results are not ideal, do you understand??"

Popovich decided to use "Martial Saint" Stephen Jackson to confront Link, and Leonard has proven to be unable to play a role.

After the game started again, Popovich glanced at Leonard. The boy was expressionless, but his fists were clenched.

I guess I must be very unwilling to accept it.

Although he is known for his defense, he has become the background board for Link to show his all-round offensive skills today.

"You will sooner or later become an excellent player, but it is not the time. These setbacks are something you must experience." Popovich looked at Leonard and said to himself, then focused on the game again.

Stephen Jackson once won the championship with the Spurs, and his defense was quite fierce at that time.

But the hero doesn't mention his courage back then. It is obviously unrealistic to let Stephen Jackson, who is already 34 years old, play in the same state as ten years ago.

Stephen Jackson played against Link last season when he was with the Bobcats. At that time, Jackson had already moved very slowly for Link. What's more, Link, who has become stronger in all aspects now.

After the timeout, Duncan's first offense was hit by the box with his turnover jump shot. Gasol Jr. was not a fuel-efficient light on the defensive end, and Duncan's own physical strength declined, all of which affected Duncan's shooting percentage.

The failure of this attack is a huge blow to the Spurs, because this means that the Grizzlies will have a chance to widen the score difference to double digits!

Conley did not play in a complicated way. Seeing that Link wanted the ball, he obediently handed over the ball.

Link faced Stephen Jackson outside the three-point line, and was full of confidence. He survived Leonard, let alone a "martial saint" who could no longer fight.

After holding the ball, Link made a few test steps first, shaking Jackson's center of gravity, and then stopped the mid-range shot with a cross step.

Killer weapon!

Elegant and elegant, basketball is hollowed into the net without any suspense, Jackson is only surprised, and Link ends the attack!

"brush!"

"Ten, the Grizzlies have taken the biggest lead today!"

"Hey!" Popovich sighed. Link was getting stronger and stronger. That guy's progress was even faster than the speed of the Spurs' reinforcement.

Last year, a Richard Jefferson was abused by Link. This year, he replaced the stronger Leonard and Jackson, but he still had no choice but to use Link.

Popovich then made several gestures, and he signaled the Spurs to open double-team! Facing such a guy, there was only double-team!

So it was time for Link to perform his passing skills. Link was not Leonard. Facing double-teaming, his efficiency in shooting was always very high. In the first round of double-teaming, Link sent the ball to Tony Allen with a wonderful pass.

Although Tony Allen failed to hit a mid-range shot, he also scared Popovich in a cold sweat. Double-teaming seems to be of very limited use for Link, and he can still find his teammates in the open position.

After seeing the Spurs start to double-team, Hollins immediately replaced Tony Allen with Pondsett. In this way, the Grizzlies can shoot in five positions! As long as Link can pass the ball, the Grizzlies can score! The embarrassment of Tony Allen's unsuccessful shooting will no longer exist.

So Link sent four assists in one breath within the last few minutes until the electronic beep sounded.

"This is a loss that San Antonio fans don't want to see! Link scored 25 points, 5 rebounds and 10 assists, and he helped the Grizzlies win the game by 11 points, moving the total score of the series to a 1-1 draw! This also means that the Grizzlies will return to Memphis with their home advantage as Link said!"

At the moment the game ended, the entire San Antonio City became extremely disappointed. Link scored a double-double in the second game of the series and played as efficient as ever. In other words, the Spurs did not really limit him.

Those who fantasize about Link being defeated in one match are just lying to themselves.

Link's performance in the first game was like a nap, and now, the Predators are awake.

After the game, Popovich looked solemn, and he was completely gone from the joking look he had before the game started. After losing 11 points, how could Popovich laugh?

When asked about the question "Why was Leonard completely suppressed by Link today", Popovich thought seriously for a while, and then spoke slowly.

"I don't know how he did it. He seemed to know all of Leonard's shortcomings and moves. As long as Leonard held the ball, Link knew how to deal with him. He was very strong, really, we had to keep putting pressure on him."

After Popovich said that, he wiped his face. There were enough monsters in the west, but now it's better, there's another one more.

A player who can accurately grasp the opponent's shortcomings... Popovich thought about it seriously. Before that, only Kobe could do this!

Link is not Kobe, and until now, he has become as dangerous as a venomous snake.

Popovich felt very stressed in an instant, and he and his team were going to go to Hell in Tennessee again.
