590: Triple-double in the finals

The Heat thought they could win three consecutive games at home, but in the first game after returning to the American Airlines Center, the Heat were hit by a blow.

Ray Allen made a tough shot outside the three-point line. Link no longer remembers how many times this was Ray Allen pulled the Heat back from the cliff. In Link's impression, Ray Allen's three-pointer seemed to have never missed today.

When Ray Allen's three-pointer hit again, the Heat narrowed the gap to a watershed. Whether to continue to close the score or expand the gap depends on these few minutes.

Ray Allen pulled the Heat back again and again. But every time, he was hit to the bottom again.

But this time, James and Wade knew that they could no longer be hit to the bottom. Because the game had reached the last five minutes of the fourth quarter. If they were hit to the bottom again, Ray Allen would not have the chance to save the Heat again.

"Ray Allen's three-pointer saved the Heat's life and gave the game a suspense again. There are only five minutes left in the game, and the Heat must work harder."

Mike Brin admires Ray Allen very much, and his performance is really worthy of his legendary shooter identity.

So what if you are 38 years old? When it’s time to take action, Ray Allen will never lose his sight.

But then I thought about it, the Heat were still 10 points behind when Ray Allen played so well, which shows how good the Grizzlies performed today.

Brin began to recall the game. The Grizzlies' small lineup suppressed the Heat from the first quarter. In the second quarter, Link started the organizational mode, allowing Iguodala, Conley and Jimmy Butler to find the feel.

At this point, the Grizzlies' offense was out of control, and everyone was an offensive point! The second lineup and the second character Randolph led the Grizzlies never got overtaken.

Whenever the Grizzlies have the chance to widen the gap, it is Ray. Allen stood up to help the Heat get out of the predicament.

So, both sides were anxious until the last five minutes. The Heat did not completely lose hope, but the situation was undoubtedly very dangerous.

I don't know if the Heat can win the game in one go this time.

"Damn, I promise I have defended very tightly!" Jimmy Butler shook his head, obviously feeling very guilty about Ray Allen's goal.

However, in fact, Jimmy Butler has scored 20 points today and has performed quite well. After all, he was just a small substitute who averaged less than double digits per game.

Butler's ability to score so many points is thanks to the Grizzlies' smooth passing. To put it bluntly, the "dual engine" of Link and Conley made the Grizzlies' offense quite easy.

The small lineup can get a lot of space, and coupled with the passing of Link and Conley, the Grizzlies make full use of the space.

Because of this, Link has scored 11 assists in this game! He is only 2 rebounds away from his first triple-double in the finals!

Because of playing in the fourth position, Link also grabbed a lot of rebounds today. The Grizzlies did not suffer in rebounds because they lacked an inside player.

Mike Bryn is looking forward to the moment when Link won a triple-double in the finals, because in NBA history, there are only a handful of players who can win a triple-double in the finals.

Jordan played 35 finals and 0 triple-doubles. Kobe played 37 finals and 0 triple-doubles.

Link is the third final, but he is likely to get a triple-double record.

Link didn't think so much on the court, and he didn't even know what his specific data was now. Link just patted Butler on the shoulder to show comfort. Then, he ran to the frontcourt.

Today, Link only has victory in his eyes!

In the last five minutes, Wade became gritted. He did not allow anyone to provoke him at home, and could still walk out with a swagger.

Wade couldn't accept the defeat in this game!

The Flash's attention has always been on Link. As long as Link breaks through, he will double-team the first time. Of course, Wade will plan the double-team route. In this way, even if Link passes the ball, Wade will still have the chance to make up for defense.

However, this goal, unexpectedly, Link did not catch the ball at all!

This is why the Grizzlies are difficult to defend today. They have no offensive focus at all. Or, everyone is the offensive focus!

Iguodala took advantage of Wade's attention and broke through and jumped after receiving the ball.

But unfortunately, Iguodala's shot failed to hit this time. Wade was overjoyed and was surprised without any danger!

"Birdman" Anderson jumped hard, he didn't want Gasol to steal the offensive rebound.

Moreover, Anderson has already won 3 rebounds so far. As long as he grabs another one, according to the "4+ rebounds winning law", the Heat will definitely win today!

Seeing that the rebound was within reach, Anderson's fingertips touched the rebound. However, the rebound was pushed by a force and rushed up again.

"Damn it!" Anderson turned his head and saw that it was not Gasol, but Link!

"Link's fight was very active. He started to pull the rebound again and the competition continued!"

As soon as Mike Bryn finished speaking, Link jumped into the air for the second time and took the basketball steadily. Anderson was one step late. As a 35-year-old veteran, his continuous jumping ability was quite good.

However, time is ruthless. The "Birdman" was thinking that if he was five or six years younger, maybe this rebound would be his.

Most people get older, the worse their physical condition is. But Link is the exception. After getting the rebound, Link did not give up, but instead took off for the third time! Before Chris Anderson reacted, he jumped and dunked on the spot!

"Successful in the second offense, Link's ability to take off continuously is amazing. After grabbing the rebound, he dunked directly. Anderson had no response! 12 points, the difference became 12 points again, and the Heat must make a decent counterattack."

After this goal, Link's data became 9 assists and rebounds. He only had one rebound left after his first triple-double in the finals!

Anderson was really depressed that he failed to grab his fourth rebound in this game.

But he did not give up and was still active. James and Wade beat the pace very quickly, especially Wade, who endured the severe pain from his knees and kept accelerating.

However, Iguodala was not left behind by Wade. Since the Grizzlies also changed to a small lineup, it has been difficult for the Heat to directly score a scoring opportunity based on speed.

Wade received a pass from James while he was in a good state today and was about to create a brilliant Iguodala with Link.

"The Flash" knew very well that if he stopped, the Heat's offense would stop. Grinding the position, wasn't that the rhythm of the Grizzlies?

So Wade gritted his teeth and leaned against the strong Iguodala to break through!

"Wade broke through after receiving the ball. He is definitely the person he doesn't want to lose in the game today."

Of course Wade doesn't want to lose, he doesn't want to lose the game, nor does he want to lose to Link. After reaching the basket, Wade jumped and made a layup!

However, Iguodala's tough blocking made Wade unable to find the center of gravity in the air. It is undoubtedly even more difficult to make a layup when the center of gravity is lost.

If it were in the regular season, Iguodala might have been called a foul. But unfortunately, this is the finals!

Wade hurriedly threw the ball towards the basket and then fell to the ground. This hasty move cannot be hit at all times.

"Damn it, are you going to lose like this?" Wade was a little unwilling to give up. The layup just now was indeed a bit overwhelmed, and it was too difficult.

However, as soon as the basketball hit the frame, the "Birdman" with "feathers" arrived in time! He came from the backcourt, took the opportunity to take the offensive rebound before everyone could react!

Unfortunately, Anderson's ability to stagnate the air is not that strong now. If it were in the past, he would probably have been able to catch the rebound and make up for the dunk in the air.

Anderson landed, and at this time, there was only Iguodala under the basket, and she was still in a daze.

The Heat fans all cheered, Anderson's fourth rebound! Once he wins four rebounds in one game, the Heat will not lose!

Of course Anderson himself knew this data, so he was very excited after taking the rebound. He jumped directly after landing, preparing to jump and dunk on the spot.

Anderson raised the basketball over the basket with both hands, and just had to exert force with his arms! But before Anderson could finish the dunk, Link flew straight towards the "Birdman"!

This guy's desire to win is no worse than Wade.

"Bang!"

The basket made a loud noise and Anderson hung on the basket. But no Heat fan cheered for this, because just like the first goal at the opening, Link completed the nail-board hat before Anderson exerted his arm!

"The second ban dunk in this game, Link is amazing today!" Mike Brynn widened his eyes.

On the court, Chris Anderson also widened his eyes. In the past, he was so arrogant, but today, he finally tried to be overwhelmed.

No matter what the bullshit "4+ rebounds will win the law", even if Anderson grabbed 14 rebounds today, Link would not allow the Heat to steal the victory!

After Link blocked the block, he made a long pass in the backcourt. Wade then realized that Iguodala had already run to the frontcourt at some point.

The tacit understanding between Link and Iguodala is really a bit like James and Wade.

Iguodala has been waiting for so long just to restore her body to her best condition and help Link with her help. Now, it is time to push Link to the top!

Iguodala completed a windmill dunk in actual combat. This dunk made the number of players who scored 20 points into 3, and also shocked all Heat fans!

4 minutes, 14 points behind, the Miami Heat is in danger!

Seeing Iguodala complete the dunk, Wade swallowed and asked himself again: "Are you really going to lose today?"

Afterwards, the Heat's offense, Ray Allen's life-saving three-pointer was not hit. This time, even Ray Allen could not save the Heat. Link then grabbed the tenth rebound of the game and won the first triple-double in the career finals. At the same time, it was also the second triple-double in the playoffs.

For comparison, Michael Jordan won a triple-double in the playoffs only twice as many as Link.

Heat fans must admit that they have witnessed the birth of a superstar!

And this superstar will most likely step into the top of the Miami Heat’s corpse!

After 14 points behind, Spolstra paused again. This time, Dwyne Wade lowered his proud head.

Link is likely to be the first person to successfully provoke Wade at the American Airlines Center and leave Wade speechless.
Chapter completed!
