Link''s steals cost the Hornets their victory, and he is believed to have become the number one public enemy in the center of the king of smoothies.
Although Paul didn''t finish the shot just now, Paul believed that he could solve the problem today with no defense. However, all this was destroyed by the zero.
Link walked off the court, more than 10000 fans booed. All these voices were directed at link, but link felt very proud. After all, the more boos you get away from home, the more trouble you bring to the initiative.
Link is happy that he can stop Paul from scoring. He''s happy to break the Hornets fans'' dream of winning. That''s his job.
Hollins didn''t expect this game to be such an ending. When he was setting up his defense strategy, he didn''t expect that it would be link who finished the snatch. If it wasn''t for link, God knows if he''ll have a chance to play overtime here.
"Well done, thanks to you." When link left the court, Hollins patted him solemnly on the shoulder. At this moment, it seems that link is the Grizzlies'' star, not guy.
The Grizzlies can''t be happy for a long time, although link''s key steals were beautiful. After all, the game is not over. If you lose the overtime, then the snatch by link will be worthless.
So, not long after the joy, the whole team fell into a tense fighting atmosphere. However, up to now, the coaches of both sides have little way to restrain each other. If there were, the game would not have reached the point of overtime.
Therefore, what kind of overtime can be played depends on whether the players play well on the spot. In this extra time, Hollins has to weigh the order of his players.
Today, Rudy Gay is a long shot player. He has made 23 shots. However, under Ariza''s defense, he only hit eight goals. Guy shot nearly 10 times more than Paul, but only 2 points more than Paul. There is no doubt that his low efficiency is affecting the Grizzlies'' winning rate.
Hollins thought for a long time, and finally decided to exercise his coach''s right. "Overtime, Rudy, I need you to attract more offensive fire. Link, Conley, you two look for opportunities. Remember, we have to play more efficient than the previous four quarters in order to win the game
Hollins''s meaning is very clear, guy is no longer the Grizzlies'' main attack point, link and Conley are. Guy nodded lonely. He had no reason to retort.
After all, his shooting percentage is there today. He''s only 34.8% shooting, and even he''s not satisfied with it.
Guy and Ariza fought for four quarters, and it turns out that he can''t turn the tide today. In this case, he does not think it is necessary for him to persist.
In order to win, give the chance to your teammates.
The electronic beep sounds, and once again the ice king center becomes very lively. Hollins didn''t say anything more. He looked at the five starters in front of him, especially link. He clapped his hands and pointed to the court. "The chance is on the court. We have to grab it ourselves."
After overtime, Pau Gasol is still fighting for the Grizzlies for the right to attack first. The result of the fight for the ball doesn''t seem to matter to the regular season time of the four quarters. After all, in the end, everyone can get an average of two first chances.
But in overtime, the result of the fight is crucial. The result of the competition will determine who can lead the attack, and the team who leads the first attack is likely to gain the initiative in the few five minutes.
You know, both sides will enter the extra time, indicating that the strength is close. And the strength close to the game, even if the lead is a goal, is also very critical.
In overtime, the Hornets'' defensive focus is still on Rudy Gay. After all, he''s the player with the most shots in the game, and his shot probability is the highest.
Hornets coach Monty Williams would like guy to continue playing singles because he believes Ariza will keep guy''s shooting rate down today.
Sure enough, Conley went outside the three-point line and immediately passed the ball to guy. Guy made a three threat move with the ball and seemed to continue to play solo!
But just then, guy suddenly lifted the ball over Ariza''s head. In the eyes of people''s consternation, link ran out and received the basketball from the position of the free throw line.
After receiving the basketball, link didn''t make any adjustment and took off the shot directly! His movements are very smooth, even belinelli''s defensive movements are not so smooth.
Link''s CIC is very stable, let people see always feel at ease. Sure enough, basketball hollow into the net, link again with a simple way, gave the Hornets a major blow!
"Rudy Gay passed the ball, his first assist to link today. If he could pass the ball in the fourth quarter, it would be over by now. But it''s OK. It''s not too late to calm down. Rudy Gay assists link to complete the shot, which is undoubtedly a result that the Hornets did not expect. And link has scored the 22nd point today, yes, 22! "Buckley deliberately emphasized link''s score, which Kenny Smith scoffed at. He believed that it was the stars who could dominate the overtime.
What happened to link just now? It''s just good luck.
Paul vaguely felt that something was wrong. Did the Grizzlies use link as the main attacker? If so, the team will have to change its defensive strategy. Link is really strong, but if Ariza is used to guard link, he will not be so magical.
With such a guess, Paul first set up David West''s mid shot to level the score. Then he decided to watch the Grizzlies attack.
However, this time, the Grizzlies are no longer the goal of link, and it is precisely Paul''s opposition Xiaoli.
Link did receive the basketball on this attack, but he didn''t do it by himself. Instead, he played hand in hand with Conley.
After that, Paul is handed over to Lin. Conley then seized the opportunity to shoot a long jump shot and hit the basketball again.
Conley is the most efficient player in the game today, none of them. His shooting percentage is not only higher than link, but also higher than Gasol and Randolph.
After this goal, Conley has made 9 of 11 shots today, scoring 22 points with 81.8% terror shooting rate!
Now Paul is in trouble again. He let his opponent play such an efficient game, naturally feel that his face can not hang. Maybe the Grizzlies didn''t want link to attack from the beginning. Their real focus in overtime was Conley?
Guy, link or Conley? The Hornets couldn''t find a defensive point for a while. But fortunately, the Hornets maintained their own offensive efficiency. Paul and West hit the basket from mid range shots. In 2011, CIC is still the most favorite offensive choice for most teams.
Five minutes to the end, the two teams are still tied, no one can defend who!
In the last 23.8 seconds of the game, Lionel Hollins used up the last pause in his hand. Paul is so strong that he deserves to be one of the best point guards in the league.
When guy no longer throws, when the Grizzlies put forward the offensive efficiency, Paul has a way to let the Hornets bite the score, which is the difference between an excellent point guard and an ordinary point guard.
So, the game came to this critical moment again. 112 to 112, the two sides drew again. But this time, the Grizzlies are the ones who have the final shot. They have the chance to kill the game and see if they can take it.
"The Grizzlies are a team that is good at defense. They may be able to defend, but they may not be able to execute it." During the suspension, the right to speak of the game naturally went back to Kenny Smith and Barkley.
"You can pull it down, Kenny. None of the things you predict today is reliable. You said the Grizzlies couldn''t resist the Hornets, so they played overtime. You said that link would do nothing at the critical moment, and he broke the Hornets'' dream with a steal. Now, you say the Grizzlies can''t do the kill. I''m looking forward to what will happen later. "
Buckley stares at the Grizzlies'' bench. Guy doesn''t make a move during overtime. All 10 points come from link and Conley. But this does not mean that the Grizzlies will choose link and Conley to finish the game.
After all, guy also hit the key three points in the fourth quarter. Moreover, Hollins is not impossible to hit the ball to the black and white bears.
Who will the Grizzlies choose to take the final shot? This is a problem that the Hornets need to find out.
In fact, Hollins is struggling. It might be his most important decision today, so he didn''t dare to be careless.
With Conley? With guy? Or Randolph? All three of them have their own advantages, but they also have their own disadvantages.
Conley and Randolph''s defenders were too strong, and guy felt bad today. Whoever you choose seems to be a gamble.
"Gambling?" Hollins looked up at link, who scored four points and one assist in overtime. This drop draft has saved the team once in the fourth quarter. Is it possible to save the second?
Let''s leave this question to the Hornets'' defense to verify.
