Link sat in an empty locker room and was treated with bleeding from the team doctor.

Just a few minutes ago, Link's teammates returned to the court after halftime, but Link still failed to go back.

Logically speaking, treating wounds and stopping bleeding is a piece of cake for the team doctor. But Link's wound is indeed too big. Ordinary sports injuries are all made of one hole.

But Link's injury can be described as a skin and flesh bloom. A piece of his eyes is opened directly, instead of a mouthful.

While in the locker room, Link also watched the replay just now. Barnes's movements were indeed very bad, which was equivalent to seeing that he couldn't stop Link, so he stretched out his legs to stop him.

Fortunately, Barnes' original intention was to stretch his legs to stop him. If he really aimed at Link and kicked him, Link would probably not have thought of going back today.

"Damn it, it's bleeding again!"

The wound had just stabilized for a few minutes, and the corners of Link's eyes began to bleed again. Several team doctors immediately worked at Link again, and Link clenched his fists. He just wanted to return to the court as soon as possible!

Since he got out, the Grizzlies' suppression of the Clippers has disappeared. Chris Paul led the Clippers to launch a beautiful counterattack, completely turning the situation around.

Of course, the Grizzlies are always the defending champion. Even without Link, the strength of the rest should not be underestimated. As soon as Link played, the Grizzlies were immediately widened by more than ten points, and this would not happen.

The Black and White Bears played very well today. Griffin and Jordan Jr. were eaten tightly, and the Grizzlies kept chewing on the score and even tied the Clippers repeatedly.

But without Link, the star in the family, many times when he needed a superstar, the Grizzlies had no choice.

Being close to the score and taking the initiative are completely different. If the situation continues to develop like this, the Grizzlies are indeed at risk of losing.

Link was not particularly emotional about this game at first, but he was humiliated by Bill Simmons before the game, but now he was kicked by Barnes again. Link was already a little angry.

"Link, otherwise stop fighting today." Two minutes later, the chief team doctor started the topic again.

"No discussion, Moon." Link smiled. It wasn't a big injury. He definitely didn't want to miss the game. If this hurts his waist and knees, the team doctor would even ask Link to hit Link.

"I know, you may think it's nothing. But the rules are rules. The effect of wounds to stop bleeding is not ideal now. As long as your face is touched again, you will definitely bleeding a lot again. We have applied a lot of Vaseline to you, which can make you feel more comfortable for the time being. But to completely solve this problem, we suggest you go to the hospital. The wound is left hanging, and you will hurt yourself."

Moon sat next to Link and began to persuade him with great thought. Of course, he knew that opening his eyes was not a major injury that affected his career. But the rules of the league are here. If Link just went up for a minute and then bleeding, it wouldn't be a waste of time.

Basketball is a confrontational sport, and no one can guarantee that Link's wound will not be touched again.

Moreover, it is definitely impossible to say that such a big wound does not hurt. But Link has never even had a grinning expression once when he sat in the locker room for so long. Moon really admires it from the bottom of his heart.

Link is really the number one ruthless person.

At this time, Bill Simmons' cheers came from the TV. It turned out that Blake Griffin completed a beautiful patch during the Clippers' offense just now.

After this re-dumping deduction, the Clippers pulled the gap to 8 points. The hurdle of double digits is already close.

"Look, now, can I leave? At this critical moment, leave my teammates on the court, and then as the leader, I will leave first? Then think of a solution, Moon."

Link smiled kindly again. He knew that the team doctors were all doing their own good, so Link was also very good at them.

If you scold the team doctor because of this incident, it is not called toughness or personality, but purely a fool.

Moon shook his head, he said he was drooling, but Link just didn't compromise. I wonder if all the great basketball players were so stubborn.

"The way...there is still a way that is not a solution. If you insist on appearing, that's all."

As soon as Moon finished speaking, Link's eyes shone in an instant. Maybe there will be a chance in this game.

※※※

The Black and White Two Bears played very tough today. After Link unexpectedly came out, the Black and White Two Bears carried the team forward.

A second ago, Gasol just scored a goal against Griffin's defense. That goal was really completely scored.

After Gasol got the basketball at the low post on the right, Griffin immediately pressed close to his body and raised his arms.

At the same time, Crawford went to double-team, preparing to force Gasol to make a mistake.

However, Gasol was not afraid of the huge interference of Griffin behind him. After turning around, he pressed against Griffin with his arms raised, he took action directly. It was a shot that had no space and had made a shot based on his height advantage.

Just when everyone thought that the shot in this fierce confrontation could not be hit, Gasol's basketball shot was rubbed against the rebound and shot into the net!

Once again, the Clippers' plan to widen the score difference to double digits failed.

Tenacious, unyielding, and amazing willpower, this is the Memphis Grizzlies today.

"Marc Gasol scored the 20th point in this game. His performance today is completely worthy of his figure! Last season, Gasol was selected into the double second team and became a dopy player, which was questioned. But the facts prove that as long as the team needs him to stand up, he will never be ruthless!"

Jeff Van Gundy was mixed with feelings. How many centers can be left in this league with independent attacks like Gasol?

"Indeed, Gasol's performance is great, and Randolph's performance is also great. The two giant bears of the Grizzlies have caused great trouble for the Clippers. But even though Gasol just scored a goal and the Grizzlies were still 6 points behind, the Clippers still have the advantage. In the last 4 minutes, the Grizzlies had more than just stabilizing the score difference. They need to overtake. But now, the Grizzlies do not have such explosive scoring power. So I say, the Clippers have a bigger chance of winning today."

Bill Simmons' attitude is completely opposite to Van Gundy. He is not a coach and has no feelings for a giant center. He only knows that his pre-match predictions will become reality!

As Bill Simmons said, Gasol's goal did not interrupt the Clippers' enthusiasm. In Paul's view, the Grizzlies were just delaying their deaths.

Paul controls the rhythm slowly. Now for the Clippers, the more time is spent, the better. Because the less time, the less chance the Grizzlies can complete a comeback.

Paul is a master in controlling the rhythm.

With Paul's patient organization and the Clippers' slow transmission, the offense was finally dragged to the last five seconds.

Five seconds later, Paul cut into the inside and caught the ball and broke through.

If it is in the first quarter, Gasol can quickly move to the basket and complete the backup defense.

But now, Gasol's consumption is too great. He has consumed too much physical strength on the offensive end today, and now he is already a little breathing.

Therefore, the Spanish, which was already unfast, moved much slower than before.

When Gasol struggled to rush to the basket, Chris Paul had already completed the layup easily.

The score difference was widened to 8 points again, which means that all Gasol's efforts just now were in vain.

The score difference has not become smaller, but the time has decreased, and the Grizzlies' situation has become worse and worse.

The Clippers fans cheered and felt frustrated for a summer. Now, they can finally take revenge!

"There is not much time left for the game. If the Grizzlies continue to play with one goal, it will be impossible for them to equalize the score. This game is basically final, and the Grizzlies' unbeaten golden body has come to this point."

Bill Simmons regained his confidence. As long as Link didn't come back, there would be no turning point in this game.

Can Link come back? From leaving the final quarter to the last quarter of the fourth quarter, Link missed almost the entire game.

It was just a wound to be treated. If I could come back, I would definitely be back soon! So Simmons speculated that it was almost impossible for Link to make his debut again today.

And this is also the greatest source of his self-confidence. As long as Link doesn't fight, everything is easy to say.

Just as the Clippers were almost sure to win and the black and white bears were almost exhausted and collapsed on the court, a commotion suddenly broke out on the scene.

The on-site photographer immediately began to look for the source of the commotion and soon discovered the target.

The cameras of the audience were aimed at the player's passage, where a man wearing a black sports mask was walking towards the court.

"That's..." Jeff Van Gundy was a little excited, "It's Link! Is Link back? He's coming! In the last three minutes of the game, Link returned to the court!"

Bill Simmons stood up in disbelief. The victory was almost achieved. Why did Link suddenly come out to disrupt the situation again?

And what's going on with this look? The pure black mask only covers half of the face! It seems that no one has used this kind of mask before! Most of the NBA masks are transparent, and usually cover the entire face.

For example, the mask worn by the famous "Mask Man" Hamilton is wrapped tightly except for his mouth, including his cheeks.

Link's mask is equivalent to protecting only the forehead and eye sockets.

The entire lower half of his face was exposed. It looked a bit like the mask worn by superheroes in the comics, but in the eyes of Bill Simmons, the one who came out was a super villain who gave people a strong sense of oppression!

Link's unique look immediately attracted the attention of the audience. Seeing this, Dave Jogel immediately called for a stop to the game.

Appearing in a mask, this is what Moon told Link that it is not a solution.

Because the mask is temporarily prepared and there is no time to customize it, the fit with Link is very average and it is not very comfortable to wear. Think about it, wearing an uncomfortable mask when playing basketball will definitely make you feel very uncomfortable.

Moreover, the league explicitly prohibits black masks because such masks will scare children. In the NBA rules, players can only wear transparent masks. But there is no way. Now the Grizzlies have just such a black mask on their hands. Therefore, Link chose to play, which means that they will definitely be punished after the game.

However, this is indeed the only way to prevent Link's wound from bleeding again.

Therefore, it is called a method that is not a method.

Link walked to the referee, took off his mask, and asked the referee to check the wound. Link's wound was so big that it hurts when he looked at it! The referee couldn't help frowning, but the wound did not continue to bleed, so he signaled that Link could go to the bench to return to the team.

Link then put on the mask again, and when he passed by the commentary station, he blinked at Bill Simmons.

"Sorry, I'm breaking your plan again."

Then, Link returned to the Grizzlies bench in everyone's astonished eyes.

The King of Memphis is officially back!

"Link! Your look is so fucking villain!" Randolph smiled, but even when he was joking with Link, the ups and downs of Randolph's chest were very obvious.

It can be seen that the black and white bears are really exhausted. They have tried their best to win.

Link is very grateful to his teammates, who deserve to be the defending champions. They did not surrender because of the absence of the star, but fought bravely to the end.

Link put away his smile and patted Randolph and Gasol on the shoulders.

"Sorry guys, I'm late. You know, this mask is somewhat inconsistent with the regulations. Don't worry, I'll leave it to me next. I promise that everyone's efforts will not be in vain."

As soon as Link finished speaking, the pause time ended. It was equivalent to the pause that Jogel had no arrangements for this pause, and everyone was just waiting for Link to return.

But even so, the Clippers became nervous.

Link's return is more deadly than any tactic!

Link, wearing a black mask, walked onto the court and twisted his neck.

Paul gritted his teeth and signaled everyone to cheer up, "Even if he comes back, there will be no more time! Come on, keep these last 8 points!"

Little did he know that when Paul said this, he was nervous inside.
Chapter completed!
