Four of the Grizzlies were selected for the best defensive lineup, which caused a stir all over the world.
Even the pistons, famous for their defense, won the championship by beating the F4 Lakers a decade ago, never had four men selected for the best defensive lineup.
The Grizzlies defense is so strong that people who don''t watch them play can know something about it.
After the announcement of the list, thunder fans inexplicably nervous. Their self-confidence a day ago seemed to be wiped out.
The Grizzlies'' achievements are of a historical level, and thunder fans can''t turn a blind eye to it.
Not to mention thunder fans, even Durant felt incredible. Grizzly bear''s strong, has reached the point that cannot be ignored.
But after the best defensive lineup, the real play is just beginning.
According to the league''s custom, the list of several best teams is announced one day. These two days, the best rookie lineup and the best defensive lineup have been announced. Today, when the fourth game of the series began, the best team was announced!
Again, Durant has to compete head-on with link!
With LeBron James, the MVP winner, almost certain to take a place, link and Durant have to compete for the only space left in the best period.
It has to be said that link and Durant are really enemies. They can compete with each other in everything.
Thunder fans are very concerned about the announcement of the best lineup list. After all, this is their only chance to beat the Grizzlies in honor this year.
If Durant can squeeze link into the best two, it will be an all-round victory.
Before the fourth game of the series started, the competition was very fierce.
Link got up early today and went for a run in the hotel gym. The war is coming, and he wants to be at his best 24 hours today.
Best first team... That''s link''s goal this season. But this year, the competition for the best is really fierce.
But whatever the outcome, link can see how anxious the game will be at night. No matter who he or Durant is selected, there must be one who is unwilling. And this kind of unwillingness will be reflected in the competition immediately.
But link promised to make it to the finals at upshaw''s tomb. If he wants to make it to the finals, he has to win a game at the Chesapeake energy arena!
If it is the same as last year, neither of the two sides can win at each other''s home court, and the series will be dragged into snatch seven, the risk is too high.
Link kept telling himself to be calm, whatever the outcome of the best time. In the playoffs, especially now in the Western Conference finals, there is no room for error. Whoever is in a hurry is easy to make mistakes.
Link is not a God. He is anxious and upset. Controlling emotions is not something you can control just by talking about it.
But by running, link found that he could vent all his anxiety.
At noon, the Grizzlies went to the Chesapeake energy arena to start training, which was equivalent to officially preparing for the game in the evening!
Two hours after training, the Grizzlies received a notice from the league office before NBA officials released the news.
Dave Joel almost ran into the training hall. Everyone was staring at him, but he was so tired that he rested on his knee for a few seconds before stammering.
"A call from the league office... The phone told me that link has been selected as the best first team this year."
Joel''s face was red and his neck was thick. He didn''t know whether it was because he was excited or because he was too tired.
After hearing the news, link was stunned for a few seconds. Then there was a smile.
NBA best first team! Finally, link for his career resume, added a sufficient amount of honor!
"So it also means that I let Kevin Durant lose the election?" Link smiles and asks carefully.
Joel nodded. "That''s right. Kevin Durant lost this year after being selected for the best three years in a row! It''s all about you, because of you, link! This season, you have completely trampled Kevin Durant under your feet
Link waved to himself, then hugged his teammates. Durant''s three consecutive scoring king and the best three in a row have both been interrupted this season. He must be very depressed!
As it turns out, Durant has a long way to go before you dominate the league! This guy, who has been on a good run since he joined the league in 2007, has undoubtedly ushered in the first enemy of his career!
However, link does not agree with Joel''s statement, that is, he has not completely trampled Durant under his feet.
Only by winning this round of series, link can be regarded as a real complete victory over Durant this season!
But this goal is almost achieved, link''s only idea now is to end the series in two games!
This year, it''s time for Durant to taste what failure is like!On the other side, at the thunder training ground, Kevin Durant looked at the list in front of him and felt a little strange.
"Are you sure you''re not mistaken? Hasn''t the official league announced yet? " Seeing that there was no self in the list of the best moments, there was link. Durant''s face was full of surprise.
"This is the list that the league office gave me, Kevin. This list will be exactly the same as the list announced in a few hours... "Thunder coach Scott Brooks shook his head, breaking Durant''s last fantasy and hope.
Durant looked at the list on the screen of his mobile phone and dropped his head. No one could see his expression.
The only thing Brooks could see was Durant''s fist, which had turned white knuckles.
The best first team, Paul, Kobe, James, link and Duncan, Durant up to now can''t believe that there is no himself in these five names.
He can only be in the best two with teammates wesbrook, Parker, Anthony and grizzly''s Pau Gasol.
It''s also a great honor. To be honest, Durant would not have been so disheartened if he had lost to Anthony. Durant didn''t feel much when he was robbed of the title by Anthony this year.
However, in the selection of the best first team, he was defeated by link!
This is the real reason why Durant is unwilling!
He can accept that he is only a second team player, but he can''t accept that he is pushed down by link!
I don''t want to lose to that asshole!
Brooks didn''t know what to do, so he patted Durant''s arm to show his comfort.
"It doesn''t matter, Kevin. Winning the game is the most important thing. It''s like 2007, when Dirk Nowitzki took the MVP and was eliminated in the first round, it doesn''t make sense. As long as we can win, the Grizzlies are five people into the best of a while, and will not be recognized by others
Brooks has to launch the "chicken soup" offensive, the results have become a fact, can not be changed. The rest is just to see how Durant accepts the facts.
Durant nodded silently, then returned to the court to continue training.
Brooks suddenly felt a chill on his back. Durant''s expression when he just looked up... Was frightful!
Maybe at Chesapeake energy arena tonight, Durant will mercilessly erase all the obstacles in front of him...
on the evening of the 25th, the fourth game of the western finals between thunder and Grizzlies was held as scheduled.
Today, thunder fans are very excited. As soon as the Grizzlies come out, they hiss for deafness. Link, in particular, has been pointed at the nose by at least five fans before warming up.
"Damn it, they are so arrogant after losing. These guys are really annoying!" Randolph looked around and couldn''t help cursing.
"This is the away game, Zach. If today is at the FedEx stadium, we will be welcomed by endless cheers. " Although link was the worst scolded, he was very calm.
Professional people must have professional quality. It is not the quality of professional basketball players to bring emotion on the basketball court.
"This group of guys must hate you now. You provoked them not to say before, and now you have pushed Durant into the best second. I don''t think it will be easy for you to come here
"Don''t wait until later, Zach. Tonight, I must face the fiercest revenge Link said, looking at the other half of the thunder 35.
Durant has been sullen since he entered the arena. With his toes you can imagine how angry Durant is right now.
After the warm-up, the referee indicated that both sides were in their places and the game was about to start.
Before the real hand to hand combat began, Mike brin on the commentary platform also introduced the basic situation of the game for the fans for the first time.
"There is no doubt that this will be a super war between link and Durant! Durant was squeezed into the best second lineup by link, which must be very unwilling! And link, with his character, he will give Durant the most powerful counterattack on the basketball court, even though he is seemingly the same as when he is peaceful
Mike brin is right. Link doesn''t look as emotional as Durant. But he is very clear about his mission and will never give up until he achieves his goal!
To win, win Durant thoroughly!
Both sides start into the designated position, between link and Durant, on a midfield line.
Link didn''t challenge Durant today. He knew he would just burn himself. But to linck''s surprise, Durant took the initiative to talk to himself.
"Don''t be too proud, boy. Today''s game, I will slowly destroy you! I''ll give back what you let me bear
Durant said, glancing sideways at link.
Link can guarantee that this is the most ferocious look he has ever seen in Durant.The game officially began. The fans of Chesapeake energy stadium all stood up and waited for thunder''s first goal.
Pau Gasol won the Grizzlies the right to attack, and link has to start his "don''t let you sit down" plan.
