Link's steals wiped out the Hornets' victory, and I believe that now he has become the number one public enemy of the entire Smoothie King Center.
Although Paul did not finish shooting just now, he believes he can solve the problem today with no defense. However, all of this was destroyed by that number 0.
Link walked off the court, and more than 10,000 fans booed collectively. These voices were directed at Link, but Link felt extremely glorious. After all, the more boos you get on the road, the more trouble you bring to the initiative.
Link is very happy that he can prevent Paul from scoring. He is very happy to break the dream of winning the Hornets fans. This is his job.
Hollins didn't expect that this game would end in such a way. When he was arranging a defensive strategy, he didn't expect Link to complete the steal. If there is no Link, God knows if he still has a chance to deploy overtime tactics here.
"Thanks to you, well done." After Link was off the court, Hollins patted him solemnly on the shoulder. At this moment, it seems that Link is the star of the Grizzlies, not Gay.
Although Link's key steal just now is very beautiful, the Grizzlies players can't be happy for long. After all, the game is not over yet. If the overtime is lost, then Link's steal just now will be worthless.
So, not long after joy, the entire team fell into a tense fighting atmosphere. However, until now, the coaches of both sides actually have little way to restrain each other. If so, the game will not reach the point of overtime.
Therefore, what can be achieved in overtime depends in fact on the performance of the players. In this overtime, Hollins has to re-evaluate the players' order of shots.
Today, Rudy Gay is the player who has made long shots. He has made 23 shots. However, under Ariza's defense, he only hit 8 goals. Guy made nearly 10 more shots than Paul, but only scored 2 points more than Paul. There is no doubt that his low efficiency is affecting the Grizzlies' winning percentage.
Hollins considered it for a long time, and finally decided to exercise his rights as a head coach. "Overtime, Rudy, I need you to attract more offensive firepower. Link, Conley, you two should look for opportunities. Remember, we must Only by playing a more efficient offense than the previous four quarters can we guarantee victory in the game."
Hollins's meaning is very clear, Gay is no longer the main point of the Grizzlies, Link and Conley are. Guy nodded lonely, he had no reason to refute.
After all, his hit rate today is right there. His shooting percentage is only 34.8%, even he himself is not satisfied.
Gay and Ariza competed for four quarters, and it turns out that he is unable to turn the tide today. In this case, he also thinks that he does not need to continue to be attached.
In order to win, give the opportunity to teammates.
The electronic buzzer sounded, and the Smoothie King Center became lively again. Hollins didn't say much, he looked at the five starters in front of him, especially Link. He clapped his hands and pointed to the court, "The opportunity is on the court, we have to grab it ourselves."
At the beginning of the overtime, Gasol still fought for the Grizzlies to get the ball first. For the regular season time of four quarters, the result of the faceoff does not seem to matter. After all, in the end, everyone can get an average of two first strike opportunities.
But in overtime, the result of the faceoff is very critical. The result of the faceoff will determine who can take the lead in the attack, and the one who takes the lead in the attack will most likely gain the initiative in the few 5-minute matches.
You know, the two sides will enter overtime, indicating that the strength is close. And a game of close strength, even if it is a lead, is quite critical.
In overtime, the Hornets' defensive focus is still on Rudy Gay. After all, he is the player with the most shots in the game, and his shot probability is the greatest.
Hornets coach Monty Williams really hopes that Guy will continue to play singles because he believes that Ariza will make Guy's field goal percentage continue to drop today.
Sure enough, Conley immediately passed the ball to Gay after he got outside the three-point line. Gay made a three-threat action with the ball, seemingly going to continue singles!
But at this moment, Guy suddenly uploaded the ball over Ariza's head. In the eyes of everyone in dismay, Link ran out and received the basketball at the free throw line.
After receiving the basketball, Link did not make any adjustments and directly took off and shot! His movements are very smooth, even Belinelli's defensive movements are not so smooth.
Link's CIC is very stable, which makes people feel at ease when they watch it. Sure enough, the basketball was hollow into the net, and Link once again dealt a major blow to the Hornets in an unpretentious way!
"Rudy Gay actually passed the ball. This is the first assist he gave Link today. If he can pass the ball in the fourth quarter, it is estimated that the game is over now. But it doesn't matter, now. It’s not too late to calm down. Rudy Gay assisted Link to complete the shot, which is undoubtedly a result that the Hornets did not expect. Link has already scored today's 22nd point, yes, 22 points!"
Barkley deliberately emphasized Link's scoring, and Kenny Smith sneered at it. He believed that the only players who can dominate overtime can always be stars.
Link's steal just now? It's just good luck.
Paul vaguely felt that something was wrong. Could the Grizzlies use Link as their main attacker? If this is the case, the team must change its defensive strategy. Link is indeed very strong, but if Ariza is used to guard Link, he is not that magical.
With such a guess, Paul first assisted David West to make the shot and evened the score. Subsequently, he decided to observe the Grizzlies offense.
However, this time the Grizzlies scored the goal is no longer Link, but it is Paul's counterpoint Xiao Kangli.
Link did receive a basketball this time, but he didn't take the shot himself, but played hand-to-hand with Conley.
After handing over, Link took advantage of the situation and stopped Paul. Conley then seized the opportunity to shoot a long-range jumper and hit the basketball again.
Conley is the most efficient player in the game today, no one. His shooting percentage is not only higher than that of Link, but even higher than those of Gasol and Randolph.
After this ball, Conley has made 9 of 11 shots today, scoring 22 points with an 81.8% horror shooting rate!
Now, Paul is in trouble again. He made his matchup to play such an efficient game, and he naturally felt that he couldn't hold his face. Maybe the Grizzlies didn't want Link to attack from the beginning. Their real main point of overtime is Conley?
Guy, Link or Conley? The Hornets couldn't find the defensive focus for a while. But fortunately, the Hornets' own offense has maintained high efficiency. Paul and West's mid-range shots frequently hit the basket. In 2011, CIC was still the favorite offensive choice for most teams.
Five minutes to the end, the two teams are still tied, no one can guard against each other!
In the last 23.8 seconds of the game, Lionel Hollins used the last timeout in his hand. Paul is too strong, he deserves to be one of the best point guards in the league.
When Gay stopped shooting and the Grizzlies improved offensive efficiency, Paul still had a way to let the Hornets bite the score. This is the difference between a good point guard and an ordinary point guard.
Thus, the game came to this desperate moment. , The two sides drew again. It's just that this time, the Grizzlies who have the last shot right become the Grizzlies~EbookFREE.me~ They have the opportunity to kill the game, depending on whether they can grasp it.
"The Grizzlies are a team that is good at defensively. They may be able to prevent the lore, but they may not be able to execute the lore." During the suspension, the right to speak in the game naturally returned to Kenny Smith and Barkley. on.
"You can pull it down, Kenny. None of the things you predicted today are reliable. You said the Grizzlies couldn't resist the Hornets, but they hit overtime. You said Link will be at a critical moment. He didn't do anything. As a result, he broke the Hornets' dream with a steal. Now, you say that the Grizzlies can't perform a lore. Instead, I have some expectations. What will happen later."
Barkley stared at the Grizzlies' bench. During overtime, Gay didn't make a shot. All 10 points came from Link and Conley. But this does not mean that the Grizzlies will choose Link and Conley to end the game.
After all, in the fourth quarter, Gay had also hit a key three-pointer. Moreover, Hollins is not impossible to hit the ball to the black and white bears.
Who will the Grizzlies choose to make the last shot? This is a problem, and it is also a problem that the Hornets need to figure out.
In fact, Hollins is also struggling. This may become his most important decision today, so he dare not care.
Use Conley? Use Guy? Or Randolph? The three of them have their own advantages, but also their own disadvantages.
Both Conley and Randolph's defenders are too strong, and Gay feels bad today. No matter who you choose, it seems to be a gamble.
"Gambling?" Hollins looked up and looked at Link who scored 4 points and 1 assist in overtime. This loser has saved the team once in the fourth quarter. Is it possible to save the second time?
This question is left to the Hornets defense to verify.
