265: His name is Jimmy Butler

After that aerial dunk, Link scored 20 points in this game. Today, the Grizzlies' overall offensive efficiency is very low, but the offense of Link and Guy can still be seen.

Now that Guy is out, Link has undoubtedly become the most relied on offensive point for the Grizzlies. He did not disappoint the team's expectations and shouldered the heavy responsibility of offense.

However, Link knew very well that without Jimmy Butler's support, he would not have had such a good offensive opportunity twice.

Indeed, Butler is still very immature now. Indeed, Butler is dealing with an already exhausted Pierce.

But even so, Link has already experienced the pleasure of working with Butler in the future in advance.

I hope that guy can grow up quickly.

Now, the Celtics are only 4 points ahead of the Grizzlies, and the situation is firmly under control. If it continues, it is only a matter of time before the Grizzlies overtake the score.

The Celtics really want to make a big splash again, but now everyone is very tired and really can't burst out.

Finally, the physical fitness problem was overwhelming not the Grizzlies, but their opponents.

Then a Celtics attack, Garnett missed a single against Randolph in a low post. Randolph also figured it out. Today he fought hard on the defensive end and devoted himself to the defense. He let the offense go and left it to Link to handle it with full authority. Anyway, his offense feels bad today.

So, Garnett could clearly feel that the defense he faced was tighter than before. It was naturally much more difficult to score a goal.

The Celtics' offense failed again, and now, the abuse of Boston fans in the stands disappeared.

Seeing that the score was about to be caught up, who is still in the mood to scold him?

Basketball was hit by Link again, and he was the veritable number one scorer in the lineup on the court.

Link didn't think much and directly played single Ray. Allen! Ray Allen was 7 cm shorter than Link and was not good at defensive back-to-back play. Just when other Celtics players were still struggling to assist in defense, Link had already turned over and jumped!

The height of Ray Allen blocking did not put any pressure on Link. Link took action steadily, and the ball was bumped into the basket a few times, but eventually fell into the net.

Link scored 6 points in a row, narrowing the gap to only 1 goal!

"Where is the defense!? Where is our defense!?" Rondo shouted maliciously, questioning Ray Allen's defensive ability. It can be seen that his relationship with Ray Allen is indeed not good.

Who is Ray Allen? Ordinary NBA players may think that the thing is similar to scrap wood when they see a piano. But Ray Allen can play wonderful notes when they see a piano. Although Ray Allen is also a black man, he has a superior living environment since he was a child and has never been to the streets.

Therefore, there is always a gap between the children who came out of the street such as Rondo, Garnett, Pierce, etc.

And this kind of barrier may eventually turn into a contradiction.

When he was scored by Link, what he received was not the encouragement and support from his teammates, but the sarcasm. I have to say that this is indeed heartbreaking.

Ray Allen was indeed a bit miserable today, with a low shooting percentage and was still being knocked out by Link on the defensive end.

If Link wants to evaluate it, it is actually difficult for Ray Allen to be called a giant figure now.

His tactical status is already behind Rondo, and his data is not as amazing as before.

A veteran's fall over time is probably the most regrettable thing in the world of competitive sports.

But will Link sympathize? No, he will only get points from Thunder Allen even more!

Rondo, who was so angry, planned to attack by himself. This attack is very important to the Celtics. If they can advance, everything will be fine. If they make progress, they may be in a backward position after the next round.

Rondo seeks a breakthrough through cover, and after entering the inside, he uses his signature basket shaking action.

But this time, Gasol did not sway, and the Spanish homeless man was still pressing against Rondo. He was covered by Gasol, who was 2.13 meters tall, and Rondo could not see anything in an instant.

In desperation, Rondo had to pass the ball to Ray Allen, but Link, like Jimmy Butler, they would not give up any chance to directly grab the ball!

"Link cut off the pass, and Rondo made a mistake. This is the second consecutive turnover for the Celtics. Rondo did not expect that he would encounter such great difficulties on the offensive end, and the Grizzlies would have the chance to equalize the score!"

Link confidently found Lei Allen and continued to play singles behind his back!

This is not a game, and there is no need to change the tricks every attack. The most effective offensive method is the best offensive method. At that time, Barkley relied on his 3-pointer, which is known as the strongest butt in NBA history, to push people all the way to the basket, and didn't he become a super giant?

Seeing that Ray Allen was about to be eaten raw again, Pierce couldn't help it. He decisively double-teamed it. If he was equalized, the morale of the Celtics would be completely discharged.

"Link was double-teamed, and the Celtics were forced to use double-teaming to deal with Link. Last season, Celtics fans and media defamed Link as worthless. As a result, their team must use double-teaming to defend that man." Jaylen Ross smiled. Don't bully the young man's poor.

Link was not nervous when facing double-teaming, but instead uploaded the ball from Ray Allen and Pierce's heads in a hook position.

Pierce secretly cried in his heart, Link's vision is too broad! He immediately turned around, and sure enough, Jimmy Butler, who was unpreserved, cut into the penalty area and received the basketball. Then, before O'Neal, who had become quite slow, dunked!

"Doududududu!" Doug Rivers finally called for a stop to the game, but it was too late, and the Celtics now have no advantage of 1 point.

Link touched his chest in the air with Jimmy Butler after the dunk landed. It must be admitted that it felt so good to partner with Jimmy Butler on the wing.

When Butler grows up in the future, he will not be able to take off!

"Good job guys, pretty job! Keep going, the Celtics are no longer able to do it. As long as we can keep going, they will have no chance!"

Hollins doesn’t care about playing the Spurs tomorrow, he wins in the present! Victory is right in front of him, that’s stupid!

Although the score was only equalized at this time, it was beaten 8 to 0, and the Celtics had long lost their temper.

In the next few minutes, the Celtics showed signs of fatigue, and the three giants frequently made irons. However, the Grizzlies became more and more brave under Link's leadership, and finally reversed and narrowly defeated the Celtics 98-94!

"The game is over! The Boston Celtics suppressed the Grizzlies' three-quarter game! But in the last quarter, the Grizzlies who could not beat him completed a counterattack. Link scored a game-high 26 points, with 6 rebounds and 5 assists! He scored 10 points in a single quarter in the fourth quarter, which can be said to be the last straw that crushed the Celtics!"

At the moment the game ended, Link sat down on the ground.

So tired!

But this time, the Grizzlies no longer missed the key rounds and games because of their exhaustion, and he bit them down!

Pierce unwillingly pulled off his hairband and threw it on the ground. He scored 21 points today, but his 41.7% shooting percentage was not ideal.

Pierce's shooting percentage in the first three quarters was actually quite high. At the beginning of the fourth quarter, he scored 4 points on Guy's head. It was since Jimmy Butler came on the court that he started to hit the iron.

Pierce doesn’t know why, but every time he plays the Grizzlies, there will be "monsters" appear. Last season was Link, and this season was the No. 21.

By the way, his name is Jimmy Butler.

"Lin, are you okay?" Just as Link was sitting on the ground and rested, Jimmy Butler walked over and reached out to Link.

"Great, Jimmy. It would be even better if you could get two Gatorades from my head." Link smiled, then took Butler's hand and stood up.

Little did he know that after standing up, Butler grabbed Link's hand and suddenly used force, and the two of them were instantly connected. Butler immediately hugged Link and then put his head in Link's ear.

"Thank you, Lin, you let me know how to play in the NBA with defense and perseverance. I did a great job today, right?"

Link didn't expect that Jimmy Butler would lower his head and whisper these things. He patted Butler on the shoulder and responded softly.

"You have been here all the way, and you should thank you for your persistence. If you really want to thank me, please help me get my bag tonight. I'm exhausted, Jimmy."
Chapter completed!
