With 8 minutes left in the fourth quarter, Link broke through and was directly knocked out of the baseline by "big baby" Davis.

"Big Baby" successfully prevented Link from scoring the goal directly, but there was no doubt that his rough rushing action caused him to take a defensive foul.

Link got up and shook his head. The Clippers played this game really unfriendly. He no longer remembered how many times he was knocked away today. The more famous you are, the more you will be violated in key games.

Link thinks that there is no problem even if he blew up a malicious foul.

Link was only glad that he was in the 21st century. If it were in the 1990s, this game might have turned into a wrestling war.

Fortunately, Link doesn't have to endure it for too long. Because if all these two free throws were hit, the game should be over.

"Link stands on the free throw line, and the Clippers' foul will not work. Letting Link stands on the free throw line is no different from giving Link two points directly."

Hubby Brown said confidently that Link rarely makes mistakes at the free throw line. Now the Grizzlies are 20 points ahead of the Clippers. If Link makes both free throws, then garbage time can come in advance.

The Clippers' performance today was the same as usual, starting from the first quarter, their condition gradually declined. In each quarter, the score difference was wider and wider. It seemed that the Clippers still had no hope.

Chasing 22 points in 8 minutes is a difficult task for the Clippers. It seems that they are destined to be the background board for Link MVP Night.

Link took two deep breaths and tried to make his breath even.

Most NBA stars have no problem with free throwing skills. Even stars like Howard and James are generally not good at free throws, free throws are still a hit on the training ground.

Not to mention professional players, even many basketball enthusiasts will not hit the free throw rate too low.

The reason why some stars' free throw shooting rate becomes lower in the game is that after a strong confrontation, few people can still grasp the shooting rhythm. Those basketball enthusiasts who claim to be more accurate in free throws than Howard will go to run a few times and then go to free throws, and the shooting rate will also become lower.

Therefore, Link is very concerned about his breathing rate when he free throws. As long as he adjusts his breathing and superb shooting skills, it is enough to ensure a high shooting rate at the free throw line.

With this trick, Link once again made two free throws at the free throw line. The 22-point difference was firmly on the shoulders of the Clippers players, and the Grizzlies fans also celebrated in advance.

Link won the MVP and the Grizzlies won the victory, which was a perfect night for the fans.

The Clippers stopped the game, Doug Rivers crossed his waist on the sidelines, as if he was thinking about how to deal with the reporters' tricky questions after the game was over. The Grizzlies players excitedly brigade each other, as if they were already celebrating their second victory in the series.

Hubby Brown is glad that the Grizzlies can keep all two home courts without wasting their home advantage.

The game was perfect in all aspects. The only regret was that Link failed to surpass Durant with 30 points, 11 assists and 8 rebounds.

But it doesn't matter, victory is always more important than personal data. As for basketball games, it is difficult to be perfect.

"Link, let's take a break later. You won't get there in the last 8 minutes." The first thing Dave Joggle did after the timeout was to replace Link with him.

Link has been subjected to too many rude violations today. If you continue to keep Link on the court, the risk of injury is too great.

Sometimes, certain injuries can be avoided. If Link gets hurt during garbage time, it is not worth it.

In order to ensure the smooth playoffs, Jogel hopes to protect Link in the last 8 minutes. Anyway, the Grizzlies are leading 22 points, and even without Link, they are unlikely to lose.

Link hesitated for a moment, but nodded slightly and agreed with Jogel's decision. It was a little too early to end in 8 minutes, but with the current state of the Clippers, it is estimated that they will not be able to turn the game back.

Link firmly believed that his free throw had killed the Clippers.

Joggle then replaced Link with Jimmy Butler. After the timeout, the Grizzlies sent a mixed lineup composed of Conley, Tony Allen, Butler, Randolph and Azelley.

Jogel did not play as a full substitute, but instead kept Randolph and Conley on the field to stabilize the situation, which was considered as an insurance policy for the game.

If nothing unexpected happens, the last eight minutes of the game will be so mediocre.

After the timeout came back, the Clippers began to attack. Unlike the Grizzlies, the Clippers did not replace the main player. This is actually normal. The side behind the big score will leave the main player on the court even if they know that the situation is irreversible.

After all, it is really not good to raise the white flag directly.

Chris Paul took the baseline ball and started pressing forward. While advancing, Paul glanced at Link.

Link was chatting with little Gasol beside him at this time, as if he had already clocked in and got off work.

Paul gritted his teeth and speeded up.

When the pause was just now, Paul told everyone who drove the fleet, "Follow my footsteps, we still have a chance to win!"

No one noticed that the Clippers leader was secretly exerting his efforts.

After the timeout, Paul played a pick-and-roll with Jamal Crawford near the midfield line. The purpose of the pick-and-roll between the defender and the defender was not to block the opportunity to break through, but to force the Grizzlies to replace defense!

Defensive player Tony Allen defended Paul, while Conley went to defend Crawford.

Seeing that the change was formed, Paul threw the ball into the hands of Crawford, the only Clippers who won personal honors this season.

In the second half of the last game, Conley did a pretty good job of defending against Crawford. Against Crawford, Conley did not think he was at a disadvantage.

Crawford began his fancy dribbling performance, and Conley took two steps back to defend Crawford's breakthrough.

To deal with a player with a strong street style, just by defending against breakthroughs, his fancy moves will become meaningless.

Crawford knew that Conley was very good at defending, so this time he did not choose to fight Conley to death. Seeing Conley take two steps back, Crawford, who was originally dribbling, suddenly pulled out the jump shot from the three-point line!

After dribbling, this is Crawford's strength!

Conley reacted quickly and pounced on it immediately. However, Conley's physical condition really had no advantage in interfering with long-distance shooting.

Crawford completed the move before Conley interfered. He and Paul changed positions for this opportunity!

"brush!"

The basketball flew into the net, and Crawford shot with his signature dribble and shot. Conley looked like he was looking at the opportunity. As long as he seized the opportunity, the Grizzlies' defense was not indestructible.

"Good job, Jamal, keep holding on!" Paul rushed up excitedly and slapped Crawford's high-high. He knew that as long as he created a singles opportunity for Crawford, he would not disappoint you!

The Clippers fired the first shot of the counterattack, which bodes well for Paul!

The Clippers scored successfully, but the fans on the scene didn't care.

After all, after the Clippers just made that three-pointer, they were still 18 points behind.

Soon, the Grizzlies counterattacked. This time, Conley hit Randolph and the strong man who scored 19 points in a single quarter in the Heat. Joggel hopes Randolph can use his superb low post attack and score steadily and continuously.

However, Randolph just received the basketball and encountered a tough double-team between Griffin and Jordan Jr.!

The Clippers double-teamed very decisively. Without Link's lead, the Clippers' defense seemed to have been upgraded to a higher level in an instant.

In the double-team, Jordan took advantage of the chaos and slapped it and cut off the basketball in Randolph's hand. The "Big Black Bear" had lost the ball before he had time to plan this attack.

Paul was the first to rush through the half after receiving the basketball. When he approached the basket, he threw the basketball to the rebound.

Azeli, who was chasing defense, flew out, but Paula did not make a layup, but played the board and passed the ball!

The basketball rebounded just right after hitting the rebound, and was caught in the air by Griffin, who came from behind.

Griffin easily dunked, and Paul staged a move that was only visible on the All-Star Weekend!

The score difference is 17 points left, which is still very huge. The Grizzlies only need to score a three-pointer to stabilize the score difference at 20 points.

However, before I knew it, the seed of victory in the hearts of Clippers players began to sprout again.

These two balls seemed like a signal, a signal that only Clippers players could understand. Without anyone knowing it, they suddenly turned on offensive mode!

In the following rounds, the Clippers played extremely crazy. Jordan Jr. first gave Butler a big hat to the breakthrough layup on the defensive end. Paul took this opportunity to break through and score a layup with a pull-in, leaving only 15 points left!

Linkburn was nervous, but Butler's three-pointer stabilized the situation and allowed Link to sit back on the bench.

He kept telling himself that he was too nervous.

However, Butler's three-pointer was like a stone that was penetrated into the vast ocean, causing no trouble at all, nor interrupting the Clippers' offensive.

Paul, Crawford, Griffin and even Darren Collison, who came on the bench, were able to score efficiently and tie the goals into a series.

The score difference was narrowed a little bit, 17 points, 15 points, 12 points, and 9 points! Faced with the fierce offensive of the Clippers, Conley and Randolph, the two starters, could no longer stabilize the situation.

When the game was 3 minutes left, it would end, and after Paul scored a goal on Conley with an emergency stop, the gap between the two sides was narrowed to only 7 points left!

The 22-point difference was turned into 7 points within 5 minutes, and the Los Angeles Clippers completely changed the trend of the game at the last moment!

"Everyone thought the Clippers were dead, but they forced the garbage time to become full of suspense again! Paul's shooting further narrowed the gap to 7 points, and coach Joggel paused. He didn't want the game he won to be snatched away by the opponent!"

Hubby Brown was sweating profusely when he saw it. Even he himself did not expect that the Clippers could still be resurrected!

It seems that the Clippers are as strong as the Grizzlies. They reached the Western Conference semifinals, but there were no soft persimmons to pinch.

After Jogel paused, he looked at Link as soon as possible. The game was like this, so Link had to take action again.

Link stood up, and he knew that the most urgent task now is to calm down the emotions of his teammates. If the Grizzlies panic themselves, the game will be over.

"It's okay, we're still ahead! The game is about to end in 3 minutes. Believe me, nothing will change in 3 minutes! We've killed them once just now, and now, it's just doing it again."

Link's unhurried speech made the impatient Grizzlies players calm down instantly. The real team leader is not as simple as winning high scores on the court.

Link moved his cooled body for a moment, took off his training suit, and stepped back into the court. Five minutes ago, he thought he had killed the Clippers.

Who knew that the Clippers climbed up again in a sloppy step and gave the Grizzlies a heavy blow.

If that's the case, you have to kill them again cruelly!
Chapter completed!
