Kevin Durant broke through the inside with great strides. Although Link did not give in, Durant still made a throwing move with his strong personal ability.

However, being able to do the action is completely different from whether the basketball can make it. Durant's high-rise play finally hit the front of the basket and failed to hit it!

At this moment, Russell Westbrook, who was also wearing a No. 0 jersey, came in and used his active fighting and unparalleled bounce ability to get an offensive rebound!

In the No. 1 position in the league, he may be the only one who can grab offensive rebounds from the crowd.

According to his previous urination, Westbrook is likely to attack directly after grabbing the offensive rebound. But this time, Westbrook calmly passed the ball to the right bottom corner.

There, "Old Fish" Derek Fischer is ready!

In fact, after leaving the Lakers, Fischer basically leaves people's vision. In the Mavericks and the Thunder, Fischer's presence is really not high.

The team that signed him is all about hoping to bring him experience, not a lot of combat effectiveness.

This season's regular season, Fischer averaged only 14.4 minutes per game in the Thunder and scored 4.1 points, which is basically negligible.

But it was such an old guy who was close to retirement that he brought Thunder back to life today!

After Fischer received the pass, Conley immediately rushed over. However, even so, the "Old Fish" did not hesitate at all. He had never seen any strong storms? It was just a fierce interference, not to be afraid!

So, Fischer once again threw the basketball into the basket with his "shoulder gun" shot. This time, Link got the position and never allowed the Thunder to get another chance to attack rebound.

But when the basketball flew halfway, Link felt scared. Previously, Fischer had made 3 of 3 shots from 3, so this time it wouldn't be the second time again.

Before Link could finish his thoughts, the basketball went straight to the net, rolling up a "wave".

"Shot again for three-pointers! Derek Fischer's three-pointer almost saved the Thunder's life! 4 of 4 shots is incredible. In the critical game, Fischer, the veteran, pulled the Thunder!"

Mike Bryn looked at Fischer in disbelief and made 4 of 4 three-pointers. Even at Fischer's peak, he might not be able to play this performance.

You know, Fischer was called the most unworthy champion point guard back then. Of course, compared with Chalmos now, Fischer's identity as the champion point guard is still recognized.

Fischer raised his right fist and fans across Oklahoma City cheered the hairless veteran.

Link sighed. The Thunder were in a frightening state today! Feichelle made 4 of 4 three-pointers, and he was simply a ghost!

After Fischer's three-pointer, the Thunder also led the Grizzlies by 9 points. At this time, it was only one minute before the game ended.

Memphis Grizzlies are in danger!

Today, the third game of the series was also the first game that the Thunder played at home. The Thunder did indeed have an excellent state, and it can even be said that their condition was too outstanding.

Durant has scored 34 points, with a shooting percentage of close to the regular season, 49.6%. Westbrook has 23 points, with a shooting percentage of 44.3%.

If it were just Durant and Westbrook, the Grizzlies would not be behind. After all, the two scored 57 points in the last game, and the Thunder still lost.

The key is that when the Thunder Double Young Master performed well, the others in the Thunder were in a state of great shape.

Fischer now made 4 of 4 three-pointers and scored 16 points! Martin finally took on the heavy responsibility of being the third scoring point.

The Thunder played smoothly until now, and they finally had hope of winning.

In the last minute, Durant continued to output. Today, the wheel battle seemed to be no longer effective for him. Even for the very difficult ball, Durant could still hit it.

Finally, when the electronic beep sounded that represented the end of the game, Link smashed the basketball hard to the ground with annoyance.

112 to 100, the Grizzlies actually lost 12 points to the Thunder!

At that moment, the entire Chesapeake Energy Arena was in full swing, and they knew that the Thunder could do it. Victory may be late, but the victory that should come will never be absent!

Durant was so excited that he seemed to have completed his self-salvation. The Thunder did not continue to lose like the Rockets and the Clippers, but stopped the loss in time at home!

The excited Durant hugged his teammates one by one, and he said that he could change the playoff trend at home!

Link stood on the court with his waist and shook his head silently. He lost this game with no temper.

The Grizzlies' performance is actually not bad. Link scored 28 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists, with a shooting percentage of 52.5%. In addition, Randolph and Iguodala also contributed 20 points and 18 points respectively. ::

The Grizzlies' shooting percentage is 48.4%, which is really not low.

Helplessly, Thunder's performance was so good, so good that it was a bit beyond the norm. How good was the Thunder's condition to win the game? Today, the whole world finally got the answer.

The total score of the series became 2-1, and the Grizzlies also suffered their first defeat since the start of the playoffs.

Although Link had long expected that the Grizzlies would encounter strong resistance and obstruction, the Thunder would not admit defeat so easily.

But when things really happened, Link still felt a little disappointed.

Thunder is indeed different from the two previous opponents who have no power to fight back.

At the post-match press conference, Durant was in a good mood. When the reporter asked him how he felt, Durant directly used the word "extremely wonderful" to describe his current mood.

"It's great, I'm very happy to be able to win the game at home! I believe things will go smoothly, and we found our own pace today. Many people say that the Grizzlies are difficult to overcome at home, but I must remind you that last season, the Grizzlies also did not win the Chesapeake Energy Arena. This year, I don't think the ending will change. When we return to Memphis, we will bring a new score of 2-2."

Durant is right. Last season's Western Conference Finals, the Grizzlies did not win at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. If they can win one game at the Thunder, they will not be eliminated.

Neither side could win at the opponent's home court, but the Thunder had a home advantage, one more home court than the Grizzlies. So last year, the winner was the Thunder.

Local Oklahoma journalists must have supported Durant, and under their hype, the Chesapeake Energy Arena has become an invincible place. The 14 espn experts who voted for the Grizzlies were criticized as pig heads.

In an instant, the situation seemed to turn around. But Link knew that the Thunder could not have such a state in every game. What's more, Link also believed that he could do better.

He said he wanted to reach the finals and to wear a No. 0 jersey to win the O'Brien Cup, and he would not break his promise!

Therefore, when facing the reporter after the game, Link was not nervous or upset.

"This is a series, and winning and losing are common. We were not proud of our lead 2-0 before, and the Thunder fell behind 1-2, but they became proud first. But it doesn't matter, we will continue to do what we should do."

Link spread his hands, he didn't believe that the next Thunder would be super magical.

"But last year, you didn't win at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. Today, you lost. Are you sure you can really break this curse tomorrow?"

The good reporter naturally didn't plan to let Link go like this, and his questions became more and more sharp.

Link looked at the reporters in the audience and shrugged, "I don't know if we can break the curse, but I know that tomorrow the Thunder fans will have to stand up for a long time before they can sit down."

This ordinary sentence made the Oklahoma reporters in the audience burst into trouble.

"Mad, I see how crazy you are the day after tomorrow!"

"Damn, do you really think that if you give espn the face, can you really win?"

"It's so abominable, they must be given a taste of the awesomeness."

The reason why this seemingly ordinary sentence caused such a big reaction from local journalists is that the Chesapeake Energy Arena has an unwritten rule.

Since, after the game begins, the fans will not sit down until the Thunder scores the first goal.

Therefore, Link's words, "Tomorrow's Thunder fans will have to stand up for a long time before they can sit down", are a ruthless saying in the eyes of local reporters that is too arrogant to be arrogant.

While local journalists in Oklahoma were still arguing, Link got up and left the media reception room.

The Grizzlies failed to win at the Chesapeake Energy Arena last year, and Link certainly remembers it.

He has been holding it in for a whole year for this.

Return to Memphis with a 3-1 score and then take them down in one go!
Chapter completed!
