George, who was highly anticipated, had a problem in the first two rounds of the game.

On the offensive end, he was defended by Link to take the initiative to make a mistake. On the defensive end, he was stunned inexplicably and watched Link make a layup easily.

George's performance in the first two rounds was obviously not in line with everyone's expectations. However, the game had just begun, and the fans were still patient with George.

Of course, Reggie Miller knew that George was stunned just now because he was "inexplicable". Link's breakthrough looked nothing great at first glance. That kind of action was neither as fancy as Allen, Iverson and Kelly Irving, nor as amazing as Michael Jordan. Even visually, it was not as good-looking as James, who had to knock the defender away.

But it is the seemingly ordinary breakthrough, but it actually has a hidden murderous intent! Unless you have studied slow motion or experienced it personally, it is difficult to experience the horror of that changing direction.

Miller's heart was now in his throat. He had just finished blowing George before the game, and he didn't want to be slapped by Link.

Speaking of which, Miller remembers that when Link defeated Durant, he had this feeling when he broke through. Could it be that Link had changed his breakthrough style from that time on?

But how is this possible? Link's breakthrough was not like this in previous seasons, even before this season's All-Star Game.

How could a player suddenly change his breakthrough style in the middle of the season? Moreover, he still mastered so well.

Miller couldn't figure it out. Perhaps he could not figure out a player of Link's level.

Now Miller only hopes that George can withstand the pressure and show what he expects.

George is no longer as confident as the Pacers' second attacker.

With just one attack and one defense, George smelled the danger.

He was still thinking about the breakthrough of Link just now, and he was still thinking about what happened just now. He has been friends with Link since he started to be friends with him since college and has practiced together.

But there has never been a time when Link's breakthrough was similar to what he had just made.

After making several three-threatening steps, George took the initiative to hand over the ball to David West.

He told himself not to be anxious now, otherwise he would be completely trapped in Link's rhythm.

West took the offensive responsibility and broke the scoring drought for the Pacers with a soft jump shot from 17 feet away.

The 17-foot assassin is well-deserved. Randolph is powerless to do anything about it. David West's danger coefficient is completely inversely proportional to his unpretentious appearance.

The Pacers scored a goal and they equalized the score. David West, as the real spiritual leader of the team, used his actual actions to tell the fans and teammates, "Everything is OK, we are OK."

But Pacers fans were not satisfied because Lillard's defeat two days ago told the Pacers a truth - if you want to defeat the Grizzlies, you must cross Link's body.

Whether you defeat Conley, Randolph, Iguodala, Tony Allen and others, the only way to defeat the Grizzlies is to defeat Link!

West may not be able to play a role even if he beat the fat Randolph today, because Link will definitely get back all the lost points.

Can George beat Link? Pacers fans are still very sure now.

But the Pacers fans have not reacted yet. George has been defended by Link for the second consecutive round! Although he did not take action or make any mistakes just now, in fact, George handed the ball to West because he was so defensive that he had no chance.

George was very nervous when he watched Link approach him again. He was afraid that Link would use the same action to deal with him, and he knew nothing about the action just now and didn't know how to prevent it.

Link really caught the ball, and he was more confident than he just now!

Of course, Link knew that George was the most important scoring point for the Pacers. As long as George was destroyed, the game would be equivalent to winning half.

So, Link quickly put the plan to "destroy George" on the agenda.

This time, Link did not fake the ball outside the three-point line, but handed the ball back to Conley, signaling his All-Star teammate to pass the ball back to him at a low post.

Link ran to the middle distance on the left, and the others pulled Link away as much as possible.

George knew that Link was going to beat him on his back, at least this time, Link did nothing out of the ordinary.

The two fought for a small place like sumo wrestlers at the middle distance near the low position. In the end, Link stretched out his right arm in a fierce confrontation and received Conley's comfortable feeding ball.

Roy Hibert immediately returned to the basket and was ready to make up for defense at any time to turn and cut into the inside. The others followed their matches, and they all knew how accurate Link's pass was.

Link's only successfully received the basketball near the low post, which has posed a huge threat to the Pacers' defense.

After turning around and jump shot, turn over and break through? Or wave your arm and hand the ball to Iguodala who cut out.

Link has too many choices, and his ability is enough to make every choice a reality.

In an instant, Link had already made a decision. He suddenly sank his shoulders to the bottom line and half turned around. The arc was so large that George couldn't help but move a step. At the same time, it also made Hibert, who was squatting at the basket, feel tremendous pressure.

Link turned around and broke through along the bottom line!

But as soon as George moved one step, Link suddenly turned his body back in the opposite direction. He jumped and leaned back with a cool breeze, and jumped into the blockade that George caught off guard.

The backward jump shot after the feint was not new to Link.

He once learned to attack with Kobe from behind, and inherited Hill's powerful ability to attack with his back. Before Link could fly and escape, he relied on his superb attacking skills to drive countless league players crazy.

But even so, even if this is Link's common move, George was shaken out of a lot of room.

Because according to Link's previous habits, his turn just should be for breakthroughs. If it were just a fake move, Link's turn would not be that big. If the turn curve was too big, Link could not quickly turn back and shoot in the opposite direction.

Therefore, George took a step further and prepared to block Link's breakthrough.

But this time, Link once again broke George's perception of himself.

His turn is fast, faster than before. His back-to-body skills seem to be a combination of Kobe, Hill and Jordan, and you don't know what he will do next.

Watching Link shoot easily, George's heart was already cold. The next second, the sound of the Nets rolling sounded, and Link hit a lot!

"A beautiful backward jump shot, Link's fake move shook George away from him again. George must quickly get into the state. After Link makes a big move, it will be even more difficult to curb him!" Miller's partner thought this was just a matter of condition.

But Miller can guarantee that George must have done his best! And just now, that was the result of George trying his best to defend!

George was completely in panic, and the game was completely different from what he expected from the beginning.

After fighting with Link for several rounds, he felt... it seemed that Link had improved another level!

The last time the two sides fought, George was able to explode with Link and knock on each other was mainly because George was confident from beginning to end. He was not afraid of Link's offense and defense, and just wanted to give it a try.

But this time, George's confidence has been severely hit. The prerequisite for him and Link to explode with each other has been erased by Link.

In the game after the first quarter, George struggled more and more.

On the offensive end, he missed the game under Link's tight defense again and again. On the defensive end, Link scored 6 points in a row after the start of the game!

Link saw through George's expression. The handsome face was less sunshine and calm, and more panic.

At that time, Link knew that he would definitely take him today!

In the game, even if you are really panicked, you cannot let your opponent know. Otherwise, you will be hit harder!

When the first quarter ended at 9th and 35th, Stephenson's foul against Iguodala put the game into a dead ball.

Frank Vogel and Dave Jogel substituted each other, replacing their leading stars, allowing them to take a breath before the second quarter.

The Grizzlies replaced Link with Jimmy Butler, while the Pacers replaced Paul George, the No. 10 pick for 10 years with 10 years.

The second place in the past has now become a substitute for the No. 10 show, and people are lamenting the impermanence of the world. At the same time, they also regret George's poor performance today.

So far, George made only 1 of 5 shots from Link, only scored 2 points, and his efficiency was very low. While Link made 4 of 5 shots from George, scoring 11 points in a single quarter, playing extremely strong!

With George's performance unfavorable, the Pacers are now 9 points behind the Grizzlies. After Iguodala's free throw is later, the difference will be in double digits.

George, who was highly expected by everyone before the game, could cause trouble for Link, was completely bombarded by Link!

Reggie Miller was speechless, and the Pacers fans were dead. They could only watch as Link destroyed the California boy bit by bit, rubbing their hopes to pieces.

Two days ago, the Trail Blazers were just one step away from victory. People originally thought that Paul George could fill the gap in that step.
Chapter completed!
