690: I'm so excited, so excited
**After Vic was expelled from the field, the Spurs seemed to lose their energy in an instant.
Although the head coach's role in overtime is not as great as regular time, as one of the soul figures of the Spurs, **Vic is not here, Spurs players always feel uneasy.
In the past, no matter what problems encountered, as long as the old man stood on the sidelines with his hands and chests on his back, the Grizzlies players would instantly feel at ease.
But now, when they want to find the spiritual pillar in a critical moment, they turn their faces and can only see the panicked Chip England.
"Stable the situation, the old man will fight to the end if he is not with us!"
In the end, Duncan yelled at a rare moment on the court, which calmed down the emotions of the Spurs players.
However, with Link playing a strong three-pointer, the Spurs players were still a little nervous.
During regular time, Leonard and Duncan worked together to kill Link.
But after entering overtime, Link blocked Duncan and scored a three-pointer on Leonard's head, which made the young Leonard doubt the feasibility of defending Link.
Can this guy be really guarded?
So in the next few minutes, Leonard obviously was in poor condition. On the offensive end, he did not dare to take action easily, afraid of delaying the fighter's shots. On the defensive end, he became afraid of being fouled by Link again.
When Leonard's first blockade was problematic, Duncan was worried about Conley and could not make up for defense in time, Link began to score continuously, and it was out of control.
"Link made a layup through. This time, Link and Conley crossed the position, which made Tim Duncan not know who to defend. With a beautiful goal, the gap was further widened!"
"Link stopped and jumped in the middle distance. Leonard retreated too hard. He gave Link a lot of room to shoot. Once he entered, the Spurs are in danger!"
"Link broke through and was attacked by Leonard and Duncan. And so on...Link passed the ball out of the crack and sent it to Mike Conley! Duncan lost one thing, Conley easily made a layup, no one stopped him! 8 points, the Grizzlies led the Spurs 8 points in the last 42 seconds! The Spurs were in danger, and they all got the victory, and they were almost snatched away by the Grizzlies!"
**Vic sat in the locker room and kicked over the tactical whiteboard.
Hubby Brown's words just now stabbed into **Vicci's heart, "The Spurs clearly won the victory, was snatched away by the Grizzlies."
**Vicci was thinking that if there was no damn tip-in, or if Link's tip-in time was late at midnight, then he should be sitting in the media hospitality room now and mocking the Grizzlies and Link with all kinds of cold jokes.
If there was no damn tip-in, the front-page headlines of major sports portals tomorrow would be news that the Spurs stopped the Grizzlies from winning streaks.
if......
However, there is no if in this world. That damn tip-in is just in, and it is just in before the end of the game time.
That tip-in made **Vicci only sit in the empty locker room and lose his temper at the TV.
That tip-in made all the beautiful fantasies in **Vicci's mind just fantasies.
Once again, **Vicci's plan was broken by Link. From that tip-off, Link actually sentenced **Vicci to death.
In a trance, **Vic heard the harsh electronic beeping from the TV.
After the overtime game, **Vic looked at the score below the screen and shook his head.
112 to 101, Link scored 9 points and 2 assists in overtime, scored 33 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists in the whole game, allowing the Spurs to fall from heaven to hell at a rapid speed.
**Vicci turned off the TV because Link was cheering while shooting the camera.
**Vicci really didn't want to see this scene, which was a humiliation for him.
On the court, the fans jumped excitedly. Once again, Link turned decay into magic. He turned a game that would be lost in 0.3 seconds into a victory.
The Spurs players shook their heads secretly. Even Tim Duncan, who is "face paralyzed", could not hide the disappointment on his face today.
The Spurs have been chasing the Grizzlies all season long, and they have achieved their best. Before this game, they scored an impressive record of 26 wins and 8 losses, leaving young teams like the Thunder and the Clippers behind.
After finally waiting for an opportunity to narrow the gap in person, the Spurs fell down instead.
Duncan couldn't help but look up and looked at the brand new championship pennant at the dome of the Federal Express Arena.
I don’t know if they can successfully stand on the top of the world this time.
In the past, the Spurs were always able to use tepid methods to kill those popular superstars and those teams with outstanding record.
For example, the Cleveland Cavaliers and James in 2007 were unstoppable. James repeatedly performed magically in the playoffs. Everyone thought that the "Little Emperor" was finally going to be officially crowned, and the Cleveland Cavaliers were also the biggest favorite to win the championship that year.
However, no one expected that the San Antonio Spurs would become the disruptor. The already old, outdated Spurs, who had faded out of people's vision, shot James' popular chicken on the stage of the finals 4-0.
But now, when Duncan looked at Link and the championship pennant, he realized that the young Link was not as easy to deal with as young James as he was back then.
The Spurs still want to overthrow another dynasty of the league rulers? This time, it may be very difficult.
Duncan dragged his tired figure to the player passage, and it was not until today that he finally realized one thing - their era may really be over.
At the post-match press conference, Link didn't say much about **Vic.
With Link's personality, many reporters believe that Link should sarcastically sarcasticly at **Vicci after winning the game.
After all, Link has always been a guy who dares to speak and is not afraid of offending others.
However, Link didn't mention anything about **Vicci today. Even if the reporter took the initiative to ask about **Vicci, Link just casually said something perfunctory.
First of all, Link was really afraid that he would make something wrong with **Vicci. When **Vicci left, he blushed like a monkey butt, and Link was worried that **Vicci would burst his blood vessels.
Secondly, compared to **Vic, Link would rather talk about his teammates.
"Mike performed well today, and without him we would never have won."
"How do you think of Mike's last blow in regular time? No, that's not a mistake, it's just a pass to me, and you haven't seen it."
"Is Mike qualified to be selected as an All-Star? If he didn't, who is more qualified? Long ago, Mike should have been an All-Star player. I hope Mike can get what he wants this year."
Link said good things about Conley frantically at the press conference, hoping to get votes for Conley.
As a member of the Grizzlies, Link certainly wants his teammates to be selected into the All-Star lineup.
If you don’t even have this selfishness, then why are you talking about being a star?
On the contrary, **Vicci was furious at the press conference. He angrily accused Link of not understanding what respect is. He angrily accused the referee of not being rigorous in judgment.
Compared with the elegant Link on the other side, **Vicci's performance today is simply a drop in his own value.
It seems that Link is a mature and steady man, while Vicky is just a irritable boy.
After watching the two of them perform at the press conference, Jeff Austin couldn't help but smile.
Link's methods when facing the media have improved as quickly as his football skills.
Austin was about to turn off the TV, but he felt his phone vibrate.
He picked up the phone on the table and saw it. It was a text message. The sender was Jeff Austin, a new customer who had just signed a contract this summer, and it was also a key customer.
"Link's performance today was so wonderful! He turned defeat into victory under the impossible situation. **Vic was so angry by him, hahaha! I'm about to meet him, I'm so excited! Jeff, can you tell me what Link likes? I can prepare a gift for him!"
Looking at the childish text message, Jeff Austin smiled and shook his head.
"You don't have to prepare gifts, you don't have to be so excited. Because you will soon find that meeting Link is not something to be excited about. Get ready for the game, Jannis."
After Austin replied, he turned off the screen of his phone.
