1348: Alley... Fallback?(1/2)
8 to 0, this was a perfect start that even Budenhoze himself had never expected.
Middleton's decisive three-pointer made Antetokounmpo like a beast breaking through the shackles.
Budenhozer, who was originally in despair, saw hope of winning again. As long as the Bucks can win at Bradley Center today and tie the score to 1-2, the Bucks will still have room to detour!
As long as it is not 0 to 3, everything is easy to say.
Yes, I lost so badly in the first two games. Today, it’s time to have a meal of dumplings at the Bucks.
It’s impossible that you’ll lose three points every day!
On the court, Antetokounmpo glared at Link fiercely and quickly organized his teammates to return to defense.
Link looked at Antetokounmpo's back and felt the guy's desire that had already been overflowing.
He could feel the energy that Antetokounmpo was eager to reach the top of the league.
Because many years ago, Link himself was like that.
For the championship, they can disrespect anyone, even if they were former idols.
Although Antetokounmpo always speaks wildly, Link doesn't really hate him.
At least compared to Green and Durant, Link has not completely put Antetokounmpo on his opposite side.
He could understand Antetokounmpo's thoughts and his desires.
That young man just wanted to create his own world in this cruel alliance.
only......
Link handed the basketball over to Jokic who came to serve and clenched his fists.
But Antetokounmpo really didn't choose the right time.
This year, Link will not give up the championship anyway.
Most teams after three consecutive championships will lose the fighting spirit to continue to compete for the championship.
But the Grizzlies are different. Compared with the Grizzlies in the previous three consecutive championships, this year is almost a brand new team.
Therefore, everyone is still full of fighting spirit, including Link!
His final performance cannot be destroyed by anyone.
Link understood Antetokounmpo, but that didn't mean he would make that guy happy.
After Antetokounmpo succeeded in dunking, the momentum of the entire Bucks was significantly improved.
They have truly felt the power of the home court, and they are now full of confidence!
After Conley took the ball over half this time, he wanted to hand it over to Link immediately.
But Antetokounmpo blocked his long arm and cut off Conley's ball-giving route.
"Don't think about taking over the game today, Link!" Antetokounmpo also spitted trash talk while defending.
Link did not respond, he was actively seeking a response opportunity.
But before Link got rid of Antetokounmpo, Conley distributed the ball to Dillon Brooks who suddenly cut in with no hands.
Conley's pass is still as accurate as a scalpel. Generally speaking, Brooks only needs to make a layup after receiving this ball.
But today, Wesley Matthews put it very tightly and even pulled Brooks' jersey.
Finally, when Brooks made a layup, Matthews blocked it roughly.
Brooks was knocked to the ground in a mess, and naturally the layup failed to hit.
The Bucks made a successful defense again, and their desire to win today was unprecedentedly high.
Brooke Lopez picked up the basketball and handed it to Bledsoe immediately.
This "Mini James" counterattacked quickly like a small cannon, which is undoubtedly a good opportunity for the Bucks to widen the score difference to double digits!
Bledsoe drove straight into the penalty area.
Just as the Grizzlies' defense was shrinking towards Bledsoe, he threw the ball towards the left corner.
Jamie Chel Green, who was originally planning to chase Bledsoe, quickly turned the gun and ran towards the bottom corner, because there, Middleton had already received a pass from Bledsoe!
For the third time tonight, Middleton made a three-pointer.
In the first two games, it was difficult for the Bucks to output stably and continuously outside the three-point line.
Today, Link also believes that the feel of the bucks should be accurate.
As long as you can stabilize it, you can equalize the score when the Bucks feel their own feel.
This is how the Grizzlies came through the first two games.
After all, the Bucks were not the Warriors of that year, and it was impossible for them to take away the game with a wave of three-pointers.
As a result, Link was slapped in the face just after thinking this!
Middleton still made his third three-pointer. Until now, Middleton has made three shots outside the three-point line!
This guy can only hit 2.4 three-pointers per game!
The difference between the points became 12 points, and the Bucks fans couldn't believe that happiness came so suddenly.
12 to 0, there is no more perfect start than this!
After Middleton scored, the harsh whistle immediately rang throughout the audience.
Jogel called for a timeout, and the Grizzlies were completely stopped!
Antetokounmpo rushed up excitedly and gave Middleton a hug. Now, who dares to say that the second leader of the Bucks is a shortcoming?
Link shook his head and walked off the court. It seemed that today, I couldn't expect the Bucks to feel cold.
As Link was worried before, after returning to home, the Bucks really made a three-pointer.
And the three-point touch is sometimes really contagious.
Now it's just Middleton is accurate, and next, maybe the rest of the Bucks will be accurate.
The third game of the finals was more difficult and dangerous than everyone expected.
Link walked off the court and wiped the sweat from his body.
Jogel walked over with a nervous look on his face, with a tactical board, obviously even he didn't expect the situation now.
"One-on-one defense, one-on-one defense resolutely! We can no longer give them the opportunity to start three-pointers easily, don't give them space!"
Jogel said, picking up the tactical board to write and draw.
At this moment, everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Link.
Obviously, the one who was setting up the tactics at this time was Jogel, not Link.
But one-on-one defense, which means...
Link may have to face Antetokounmpo one-on-one without the support of his teammates!
Even for Link, this is definitely a big challenge.
Link looked at his teammates who were more nervous than him and smiled at them: "Don't worry, I can handle it. Listen to the coach, look at your own people to death."
Link's tone was very calm, as if the Grizzlies were 12 points ahead now.
His calmness also made his teammates calm down.
I don’t know why, as long as Link is here, no matter how unfavorable the situation of the Grizzlies is, others will not panic.
Link is the Grizzlies' decisive needle. Sometimes, just a smile can make the team calm down instantly.
The pause time was very short. Just after Jogel drew a few tactics, the game started again.
Link stood up and turned his head to look at Antetokounmpo who was excited on the other side.
That sentence is true. The playoffs are the superstars!
The Detroit Pistons back then were just a special case.
Spurs? Although the Spurs are team basketball style, do you dare to say that the Spurs have no superstars? When GDP won the championship that year, they were not vegetarian.
Now, it's finally time to start the final showdown with Antetokounmpo.
"The game started again, and the situation for the defending champion is very bad now. The Grizzlies started to kill in the Federal Express Arena in the first two games, but today, the situation has taken a sharp turn. Teams that can enter the finals are by no means ordinary people. Let's see if the Grizzlies can pull the score back after this timeout."
Mike Bryn stared at the stadium nervously. Today's game was really the climax.
The Grizzlies re-telephoned the ball, and the 12-point difference was heavily pressed on them, leaving no room for survival.
During this attack, when Conley came on the ball, Link hurried up to provide him with a cover.
But the purpose of this cover is not for Conley, but for Link to make it easier to get in.
After all, the four of them were crowded together, so Antetokounmpo could not hold his arms around Link.
After the cover, Link cut in immediately!
But Antetokounmpo also caught up with him immediately, not giving Link too much space.
