436: You all hate the same
George Carl was almost angry to death. He really wanted to rush up and punch Link himself. In today's era when basketball is becoming more and more civilized, it is rare for players to fight against the opponent's coach on the court.
But Old Carl can't play. As long as he leaves the bench, he will be called a technical foul. And even if he really plays, he will definitely not be able to beat Link.
Carl could only bear it. Few people in this league dared to challenge Old Carl, but Link publicly provoked. So George Carl made a fist-fighting action against all the Nuggets players.
This is their code, which means that you can play harder! You can get more fierce physical contact!
Old Carl wants to see, and after the Nuggets widen the gap further, Link can still speak!
"Boy, did he think he was Larry Bird?" Carl gritted his teeth, and the Nuggets also started the next attack.
After learning the last lesson, Ty Lawson was much more honest this time. He did not rush to make a breakthrough, but observed his teammates' positions from the outside.
In the end, Lawson passed the ball to Wilson Chandler, who had just borrowed a cover to go out of the three-point line.
Chandler's three-point shooting percentage this season is very impressive, reaching a career-high 41.3%. The wings formed by him and Garlinari often shoot left and right, taking away the game with three-pointers.
But this time, when Chandler received the basketball and was about to make a long shot, the guy wearing No. 0 once again came to Chandler!
Chandler was speechless. Link was pestering himself like a ghost today. No matter where he went, he could see that face. Just now, he clearly saw McGee blocking Link firmly, but he didn't expect Link to follow him so quickly.
Chandler had no space, so he quickly handed the ball to the "orc" Farid again.
As a player who is very brutal in style from style to style, Farid has attracted the attention of many fans with his excellent viewing ability when playing.
But in addition to the viewing ability, Farid actually has many things that need to be improved. For example, the ability of individual singles.
When Randolph put all his energy into pushing Farid outside the three-second zone, Farid got blind. He wanted to turn around and break through with his advantage in his footsteps, but found that Randolph had blocked his turning angle. Farid could not handle it at all after he got the ball!
"The Grizzlies' defense is unobstructed, they make the Nuggets very passive!"
In the end, the basketball was handed over to Gallinari, and the Italian leaned on Iguodala to break through and then stopped the mid-range shot.
Unfortunately, the Italian's shooting was seriously disturbed without completely getting rid of Iguodala.
The moment the basketball bounced out, George Carl was so angry that he pulled off the tie on his neck. The Nuggets' offense suddenly became "constipated". Not only was it extremely unsmooth, but it was also inefficient.
Stevens smiled and as long as the Nuggets cut off their pass route, their offense would be blind. As he said in the locker room, the Nuggets did not have excellent singles players. Forced them to one-on-one and they would be revealed.
This time, Conley did not catch the ball, so Link simply took the ball and passed the half!
As soon as Link approached the three-point line, the other four Grizzlies immediately pulled away. George Carl gritted his teeth, and he kept praying in his heart that Chandler must defend himself this time!
When facing Chandler again, Link was already familiar with the road. Chandler's physical condition is indeed good, but his judgment on defense still needs to be improved. For example, the goal just now was just a change in rhythm, and Chandler was shaking.
Link continued to play with the ball, and the Grizzlies didn't want to play complicated cooperation at all. This time, Link leaned directly on his back and played fancyly, and now it's time to make a solid job.
Chandler tried hard to confront him and prevented Link from getting close to the basket. But Link didn't have to get close to the basket at all. He sat back and just looked for the rhythm.
Finally, at the front half of the free throw line, Link suddenly retreated and turned over and took a jump shot. Chandler, who thought Link would continue to play behind his back, did not react in time, so he was calmly attacked by Link.
Old Carl looked at the flying trajectory of the basketball and felt something was wrong. The ball seemed to be about to enter!
But even so, Old Carl still had a little fantasy.
However, a second later, the "white waves" that exploded under the basket shattered George Carl's imagination.
Link skillfully beat Chandler upset 4 points in a row!
Link shrugged at George Carl, saying that he had not encountered any pressure at all. Old Carl turned his angry eyes to Wilson Chandler's face, and the atmosphere became more subtle.
"Link scored 4 points in a row after the start of the second half, and he was very imposing to take over the game. Now the Grizzlies are only 11 points behind. Do you think Link can lead the team to tie the score before the end of the half-time?" On the commentary stage, the local Memphis commentator was already discussing the equalization of the score.
"No, I don't think so," Hubby Brown shook his head. "If we follow this trend, let alone equalize the score, the Grizzlies may be able to overtake the score!"
Hubby Brown smiled and felt the horror of the All-Star vote for third place!
In the subsequent attack, the Nuggets missed the third consecutive shot. This time, McGee and Lawson cooperated in the pick-and-roll. After Lawson broke through, McGee cut in. Then, Lawson handed the ball to McGee who cut into the penalty area, and he rushed to the basket.
However, Gasol, Jr., followed McGee from beginning to end. Even if McGee's physical talent is superb, he cannot ignore such a big "European Fortress" and directly dunk.
So McGee leaned against Gasol and suddenly turned around and threw the ball out with a hook move.
McGee's movements were very handsome, but what was surprising was that the ball was not even touched by the basket! The moment McGee took action, it seemed that the ball had been removed, which caused him not to completely control the basketball. In this way, a funny three-no hook was born
"Puff, I can't touch the hook three, it's very consistent with McGee's style." Hubby Brown almost couldn't help laughing.
The camera gave George Carl a close-up, and Old Carl shook his head awkwardly. McGee is a guy, he is undeniable to be a good player. But sometimes he is funny, you really don't know how he lives so big.
It seems that McGee has booked another five embarrassing location today.
Gasol got the basketball for no reason, and even he was confused. Even McGee was strong just now, at least he still had the chance to commit a foul. He suddenly chose to turn around and hook up. What's going on?
He is worthy of being a man known as the "top center below the brain".
Now, the Nuggets are only 11 points ahead. If the Grizzlies score again, the score difference will become single digits. George Carl doesn't want to stop so early, so he urges everyone to concentrate.
But it’s useless for others to concentrate because the Grizzlies are still the same as Link is fighting alone!
Except for Wilson Chandler, even if everyone else is matched with Tony Allen, they are useless because they have no chance to participate in the defense at all.
"Wilson, be tough, don't be afraid!" George Carl's shouting was very clear in the arena where tens of thousands of people gathered, so he almost called Chandler to elbow.
Chandler also knew that he could no longer let Link score. Otherwise, his outstanding performance in the first half would be ruined.
Link continued to dribble under his crotch to find the rhythm. He played very confidently today. He was able to rank third in the All-Star voting. What does this mean? It means that most fans recognize his performance!
You know, Chinese players actually don’t get much dividends from Chinese fans, otherwise Jeremy Lin would have been comparing Paul. Link was able to get so many votes not just because of his skin color.
Since everyone is optimistic about themselves, why don’t they be more confident?
One step, two steps, left hand and right hand approached Link, and the overly nervous Chandler also swayed left and right with Link.
Link suddenly accelerated, scaring Chandler so much that he quickly took a big step back!
However, at this moment, Link took a step back with a huge arc and pulled back to the outside of the three-point line! This pull directly pulled a distance of his body!
"Beautiful step back, Link took a shot outside the three-point line!" Hubby Brown stood up. If this ball was scored, Link would score 7 points in a row!
Chandler reached out his hand in despair, but he knew it would not help. He was completely shaken, his interference was too late and too far to do anything.
Link stared at the basket tightly, as if Chandler had nowhere to exist. The three-point shot from the dribble was a skill that Link practiced hard this summer. Now, it's time to turn sweat into scoring.
When the basketball flew into the air, all the fans of the court stood up and raised their arms. The next second, the basketball was hollow into the net! This was like a switch that activated everyone instantly, and everyone jumped up!
"In, In, In, In, In, In! Link made a three-pointer from the back and made a three-pointer! He had already scored 7 points in a row after the start of the second half, and his personal score instantly reached 19 points! And the score difference of 15 points has become only 8 points left!"
Accompanied by Hubby Brown's roar and the cheers of the fans, the referee's whistle also sounded. George Carl called to stop the game, and the Denver Nuggets were stopped in a mess!
After the timeout, Link pouted fiercely, with five fingers on his left hand and two fingers on his right hand, and said that he had scored 7 points in a row!
"I scored 7 points in a row, Carl. I said, you have to find someone to defend me, anyone can do it! Otherwise, I will get 40 points tonight!" Link continued to provoke Old Carl. He didn't care whether Old Carl was the coach of Qiansheng. He only knew that no one could easily take away the victory in the Federal Express Arena!
For a moment, Old Carl really felt that the annoying number 0 really felt like Larry Bird
Well, at least they are not likeable.
Chapter completed!
