When the first quarter was over, the score between the two sides was 21 to 21.

As the two major powerhouses in the league, this score is indeed a bit too low.

However, this game was not without highlights. The fierce physical confrontation between the two sides made the fans very satisfied.

Of course, how could Pachuria lose his "Jitsujitsu" performance on the floor?

After Pachuria's arm was pinched at the beginning of the game, Pachuria "locked" Wade's leg during a defensive pick-and-roll at the end of the first quarter.

In just one quarter of the game, Pachulia escaped the punishment twice.

At this time, I don’t know how many fans watching the game on TV were cursing Pachuria.

No matter how fierce the confrontation between others is, it is basically within the scope allowed by basketball.

If this wonderful showdown is destroyed by Pachuria, the fans will definitely be very dissatisfied.

During the break between the festival, the coaches of both sides were redeploying the offense. Obviously, whoever can break the deadlock first and whoever can turn the defensive battle into a goal battle will take the initiative.

Jogel needs Linkdo to break through, and Jokic and Gasoldo need to find opportunities outside the three-point line rather than inside.

Only in this way can the offensive space be opened. Only when the offensive space is opened, efficiency can be improved.

The second quarter began soon, and the Grizzlies' plan also began to work.

After Curry made a three-pointer at the beginning of the second quarter, all Warriors fans thought this would be the beginning of the team's counterattack horn.

Little did he know that Link immediately returned the Warriors with a heavy punch.

This time, Gasol and Jokic opened to the three-point line one after another, and Link's road to break through the basket was unobstructed.

Link was not polite either. He used a series of amazing rhythm changes to drift past Durant, breaking through his biggest enemy and completing a dunk.

After waiting for a whole quarter of the game, the heavy showdown finally began to spark.

Link dunked on Durant's head, which is exactly what most fans want to see!

"Let them go, let them go!" Seeing this, Cole shouted on the sidelines.

He signaled everyone to shrink defense Link and temporarily put Jokic and Gasol into the shooting.

In the last game, Coach Rivers used this trick to give the Grizzlies two consecutive losses.

Cole needs to bet on the Grizzlies' three-point touch. If their touch is the same as when they played against the Clippers in the last game, then the Warriors will be sure to win this game!

So for the second time, when Jokic and Gasol pulled away for Link again and Link successfully broke through Durant.

Green and Pachuria did not continue to stand stupidly outside the three-point line, but instead retreated to the inside very actively.

If Link insists on attacking hard, he will face the blockade of three defensive players!

Of course, Link would not choose such inefficient offensive methods. When Pachuria and Green had both shrank to a deep enough position, Link shook his wrist and passed the ball to Jokic who was in position at the bottom corner!

Jokic took the knife and did not hesitate, and steadily shot the ball in, seizing the opportunity to make a three-pointer at this open position.

Cole shook his head unwillingly, although a mere shot cannot tell the quality of the hand.

But at least it shows that the Grizzlies' feel is definitely much better than when they played against the Clippers in the last game.

"The Warriors can't give Nikola Jokic such a large space, they will regret it! Pachuria should stick it on it, stick it on!" The local commentator on the scene looked more anxious than Cole. They slapped the table and shouted loudly, as if they were the head coaches.

Of course, Cole knows the ball better than them, but there is no way. If you want to break the deadlock, you have to take some risks.

After Jokic scored, Gasol immediately followed and made another shot. This time, the Warriors' strategy was to release Gasol and block Jokic and Link.

To put it bluntly, it’s just to try which person in the double tower has a worse feel.

The result is that the Grizzly Double Towers feels bad today.

Cole is completely helpless now. If he lets go like this, the Warriors will be thrown away in minutes.

There is no way, I can only use the conventional defensive method to polish it one ball at a time.

In this way, the game entered the rhythm of both sides fighting and defending.

Although such a game is not boring, it is not the rhythm that both players and coaches want.

Everyone wants to be the first to establish an advantage, and no one wants to drag the game to the point where it depends on key balls to win.

Fans may like this picture, but the players and coaches are definitely not interested at all.

The game lasted five more minutes, and in the seventh minute of the second quarter, Jokic covered Link and Link broke through with the ball.

While moving, Link found that Green was moving closer to his side, as if he wanted to help with defense.

The keen observation Link did not hesitate and sent the ball to Jokic who was going down.

Jokic still did not hesitate at all. After receiving the basketball, he bravely attacked the basket directly!

But at the moment when Jokic took off and made a layup, Green, who had extremely fast moving speed, made up again.

Under the fierce collision, Jokic's layup hit the box. But the offense is not over yet. Although Jokic can only jump as high as a piece of tofu, he has always been very active in the fight against offensive rebounds.

However, Green and Pachuria won't let Jokic get the rebound easily.

Jokic clicked the basketball in the "sandwich biscuit" state of Green and Pachuria, but due to the confrontation, he fell out of the bottom line directly.

There is indeed nothing wrong with this confrontation, it is a confrontation within the normal range.

In basketball games, it’s not like someone who falls will definitely be fouls.

But after Jokic fell, Pachulia hesitated for about half a second, then pretended to be tripped by Jokic, and sat directly on Jokic's lap!

Link was already back to defense, but suddenly he heard a whistle coming from behind.

Link turned his head and saw that it was too late.

Gasol's old fist had hit Pachuria in the face.

"Fuck!" Link ran at full speed, not surprised Gasol's actions.

In the team, Gasol always treats Jokic as his younger brother. Since he plays in the same position and is all from the European system, Gasol takes great care of him.

In the team, the relationship between the two is very harmonious. After the two started at the same time this season, they became a pair of close partners.

Big players like Gasol and Jokic are actually most afraid of serious injuries.

Between their height and weight, once they experience injuries, it will be more difficult to recover than others.

Yao Ming is a living example.

After finally watching Jokic rise slowly, Gasol naturally could not tolerate Pachuria's harmful behavior.

So, Espanyol went completely rampant. Gasol was indeed a little irritable this season, mainly because he really hated this intentional act of hurting people.

In his eyes, this was beyond tolerance.

When Link arrived, the conflict had already occurred. Although he stopped Gasol in time, punishment was inevitable.

However, because Pachuria deliberately sat on his legs, he should be doomed.

Link didn't want to accuse Gasol of anything. As an old fry, Gasol certainly knew to be calm. But when encountering some things, it's not just about being calm.

However, what shocked Link was that the referee actually gave Gasol only one technical foul. In other words, Gasol will end up with two technical fouls in total! What about Pachuria?

He didn't even get a normal foul!

The referee still thought that Pachuria was really tripped by Jokic just now, so he didn't react!

"You're fucking messing around." Link didn't agree. He pushed Gasol away, then walked forward to the referee.

"Pay attention to your words, Link." The referee waved his hand, not wanting to get entangled with Link.

In fact, if Link hadn't been a big name, he would have just been planning to throw a technical foul directly.

"Then have you noticed Pachuria's moves? If you want the game to continue calmly, it's better to keep an eye on him, bastard!"

After scolding the referee, Link comforted Gasol and personally sent him off the court.

When Gasol walked to the sidelines, he angrily threw the towel to the ground, obviously he was very unwilling to accept it.

He was unwilling to be so disappointed, nor was he willing to not beat up that bastard Pachulia.

After sending Gasol safely to the player's passage, Link turned back to Jokic and asked about the fat man's situation.

After learning that Jokic was not seriously injured, Link finally walked straight to Pachuria.

Seeing Link walking towards the Warriors at halftime, everyone was worried.

Green immediately became nervous and walked to Pachuria to block it.

"Link, calm down." Curry, who had a relatively relaxed relationship with Link, blocked Link's chest and kept showing goodwill.

The players from both sides gathered again, and the atmosphere on the scene was even more tense than just now.

However, Link did not take action, nor did he care about the others. He stared straight into Pachuria's eyes, and then pointed at him, as if no one around him existed.

"Put your dirty moves, idiot. Otherwise, you'll pay the price."

After saying that, Link turned around and left.

For some reason, Pachulia swallowed, and he was actually scared!

He had never experienced the oppression just now!

Durant and Green also swallowed.
Chapter completed!
