On January 25, while the Grizzlies beat the Rockets, the Warriors also beat Charlotte Hornets away.
As a team with a winning rate of just over half, the Hornets are not the opponent of warriors. In the face of a serious decline in the strength of Batum, Durant also blasted out the excellent data of 33 points.
Although they were playing two completely different games, the fans still felt that link and Durant were fighting each other.
Link said the warriors would lose before the Grizzlies, Durant disdained to say we''ll see. As soon as link won the Rockets, Durant killed the Hornets.
Even when Durant joined the warriors in his first year last season, the two were less hostile to each other.
After all, Durant didn''t have much confidence last season. He has just joined the warriors and hasn''t won the O''Brien cup yet.
But now it''s different. Now as the defending champion, Durant certainly doesn''t want to see what he''s not easy to have, and then be snatched back by link.
As a result, they did not deal with each other to let, the degree of hostility this season is soaring.
As the season goes on, the fight between the two sides will only become more and more intense.
On January 26, the day after both sides won the game, NBA officials released the full list of all star games this year.
On the western side, curry, harden, link, Durant and Anthony Davis formed the all star starting lineup.
As strong as Leonard''s front line can only be a substitute, which shows how fierce the competition in the West.
But even in the competitive West, link is still the All-Star ticket winner.
It''s the fifth year in a row that link has become an All-Star.
Compared with the three consecutive titles, it doesn''t seem like a big deal to be the ticket king for five years in a row.
In fact, before link, there was only one player, Michael Jordan, who had been the All Star Ticket winner for five years in a row.
As the most popular star in the world, Jordan has been the All Star Ticket winner nine times in his career! Among them, there were 7 consecutive ticket king.
This record, at present, seems inconceivable. Because in NBA history, in addition to link and Jordan, only Carter and Julius Owen have been the ticket winners for three consecutive years. Others, even for three years in a row.
Link''s five consecutive times are already the second in history.
Obviously, link will be the most likely player to break Jordan''s seven-year record.
Although link is the ticket winner, the warriors are not completely defeated in the All-Star lineup.
On the grizzly side, only link, the ticket winner, has made it into the All-Star lineup. The warriors, including starters and substitutes, have four players in the all star team!
Curry, clay, green and Durant four giants, all selected!
At this point, the warriors are overwhelming.
As a result, fans on both sides also quarreled fiercely on the Internet.
Some people say that it''s better to be the top ticket winner for five years in a row, while others say that it''s even greater for a team to have four people in the All-Star category at the same time.
Both sides hold their own opinions and have a lot of quarrels in the major Basketball Forums.
Link and Durant, Grizzlies and warriors between the state of hostility, no doubt also infected the fans of both sides.
But in link''s opinion, it''s not great to be the ticket king for five years in a row and four people to be selected as All-Star. Only victory is great.
Although the Grizzlies made it to the Rockets, their challenge is not over.
Just one day after the Rockets, the Grizzlies have another tough opponent, the Portland Trail Blazers.
The Blazers and the Grizzlies have also had two encounters this season, one of which is link''s winner and the other is the Grizzlies'' big win.
Currently, the Grizzlies are 2-0 ahead on the aggregate.
Today''s game against the Blazers was similar to that of the Rockets, because there was an X factor in the other side, which made the game process very unpredictable.
In the last game, the rocket''s X factor was Decker. Today, the X factor of the Blazers is Allen Crabbe, the second round show of 13 years.
Crabbe has been in the industry for 13 years, and his average score in the first two seasons of his career is less than 5 points, so he has no sense of existence. Like most second round shows, he seems destined to leave the league in silence.
But from 15 years on, Crabbe has become a major part of the Trail Blazers rotation, can contribute about 10 points per game.
As a backup for the Blazers'' backcourt double guns, this number is good enough.
Today, Crabbe also came on the bench, but made Lillard and McCollam are ashamed of the shooting rate.
Crabbe hit six goals in eight shots outside the three-point line, with a three-point shooting rate of 75%!
This terrible hit rate, so that Grizzlies have no way to completely leave the Trail Blazers behind.
But at the critical moment, link''s excellent defense let Crabbe eat deflated.
In the last three minutes of the game, link blocked his magic performance directly.Meanwhile, old Carter stepped forward and scored two key goals to take the game down completely.
115-109, grizzlies in two consecutive games encountered "surprise", but eventually with hard power to suppress.
After the game, Lillard shook his head helplessly.
From the heart, Lillard is confident to break the wrist with Golden State Warriors. But with the Grizzlies... Forget it, never won once again...
the Grizzlies won again, and the last two strongest opponents in January, the Grizzlies, have already finished.
They have won 10 games in a row.
Now, the pressure is all over Durant. Because the day after tomorrow, the warriors are the trailblazers!
If the Grizzlies win the trailblazers and the warriors don''t, Durant loses to link again.
On January 28, the Grizzlies beat the Jazz in a back-to-back game, following the Trail Blazers and rockets.
People are surprised to find that the grizzly bear seems to become more terrible after the bitter battle with the Raptors!
Their dominance, cohesion and tacit understanding seem to be better than the first half of the season.
Grizzly players are like a group of Saia, every time they are on the verge of death, it means a substantial increase in strength!
Now, the Grizzlies have won three of their last four games in January. The only remaining opponent, sun, seems to pose no threat to Grizzlies.
The Grizzlies are almost certain to win the last four games in January. Now, it''s up to Durant and the warriors.
Unfortunately, on January 29, the warrior overturned in the center of Moda!
"C.J. mccullam''s three-point strike, his fifth three-point shot of the game! That''s the sum of curry, Thompson and Durant! "
Mccullam cheered the commentary after he hit clay''s three-point head.
Today, the warriors had a terrible three-way break. Durant is 1 in 7 and clay is 2 in 6. Only Curry''s 4 in 2 is normal.
On the contrary, the pioneers may be because they were very reluctant to lose in the last game. So today, they vent all their anger on the warriors.
Mccullam broke out of the three-point line and Lillard turned Curie into a sieve full of holes.
Although the warriors were in the lead most of the time, the pioneers were adamant.
Finally, at the end of the game, mccullam scored a three-point, allowing the Blazers to surpass the warriors by two points in the last 3.4 seconds.
All of the fans in Moda center are standing up and cheering for their players. They can''t beat the Grizzlies, but they must defeat the warriors!
In the end, Durant executed the kill, but his three-point shot hit the box and missed.
113 to 111, mccullam is going to kill the warriors, ending their winning streak!
"Shit!" At the end of the game, Durant yelled.
He failed to grasp the last chance, he let a team just lost to the Grizzlies to beat himself, personally ruined everything!
He and the warriors lost the game first, also lost this time with link!
At the end of the game, there were several reporters around Lillard and McCollam.
After losing to grizzly, the bear was very proud.
Facing the camera, he said with a smile: "I always think that warriors are not invincible. Compared with Grizzlies, fighting warriors has a greater chance of winning. Of course, warriors are not easy to fight, but if the probability of winning warriors is 10%, then the probability of winning Grizzlies is only 1%. I''m glad we''ve taken this 10% chance today. "
Lillard after the game, this is the warriors incomparable embarrassment.
After the game, Durant missed the press conference.
Although warrior officials did not give an explanation, all reporters knew why Durant was absent.
That guy, he just ran away. Link and Durant in the confrontation, and made a key win.
