315: I was abused by that kid

In LeBron James' fantasy, this should be a big victory.

He can easily get Link and score high points. The Heat can continue their 17-game winning streak at home and get rid of the gloom of yesterday's crushing defeat to the Celtics.

People will no longer discuss the showdown between Link and James, because after this game, people will find that Link and James are still far apart.

After the game, he will enjoy his own moment of glory in Miami. Then he will continue to advance to the No. 1 ranking in the Eastern Conference with the Miami Heat.

But now, all the fantasies are shattered.

The game ended in the last three minutes of the fourth quarter, and the Heat's Big Three were still present. This means that the Heat have not yet won the game steadily.

The Heat defended very fiercely in this round because the defense of this round is very important and will directly determine whether they still have a chance to win today.

Wade personally defended Conley and prevented him from organizing the attack calmly.

In the second quarter, Wade had proved unable to contain Link's attack. So in the second half, Spoelstra re-played James to play the third position, allowing him to fight against Link.

Wade was able to be liberated again to defend Mike Conley, who was also threatening today.

Conley does find it difficult to get gaps under Wade's experienced defense, and the Heat's defense has been very sharp since the No. 1 position.

Link was running hard, but James was inseparable from him. Link must admit that his breathing is already a little messy now. It is never easy to fight James.

When facing him, the consumption is at least twice as much as facing others!

Link was unable to run out of the gap for a long time, and the others did not have a good chance. The 24-second offensive time passed by little, and it seemed that the Heat were about to be defended!

In the last 3 seconds, Conley had to hand over the ball to Link, who was outside the three-point line. Link immediately shot after receiving the ball. James jumped high. The interference alone could no longer satisfy him. Now he was just rushing to block!

In the last three seconds, you will not be faked to vote again!

However, when James jumped up, the familiar scene appeared again. Only James himself was in the air, and Link was still standing firmly on the ground!

"Impossible!" James muttered to himself, it was the last 3 seconds, what else do you want to do if you don't vote directly?

Link's next move gave James the answer.

After Link hit James, he moved one step to the right and walked out of the three-point line, avoided James, and then took action.

Although there were only three seconds left in the offensive time, Link was still not in a hurry and completed the entire action steadily and completely. Grant Hill's rich experience allowed Link to make the most correct decisions naturally.

Link has naturally made many mistakes since he entered the league. But none of these mistakes was made because of lack of experience.

All the problems of rookies' lack of experience will not appear in Link.

James was shocked to see Link still being so calm and his mind being so clear in the last 3 seconds of the 24-second offensive time.

Today's showdown with Link made James feel like he was fighting a long-standing star, rather than a second-year undraft.

Indeed, Link, who had finished four years in college, is older than other rookies. But even as an older rookie, James feels Link is too mature.

The moment Link took action, the electronic beep sounded, and red light appeared on the rebound. The 24-second offensive time has arrived!

Accompanied by beeping and red light, the basketball was hollowed into the net, and Link made a three-pointer!

After scoring the goal, almost all Heat players' first reaction was to rush to the referee and said the goal was invalid. They believed that Link took action only after the 24-second offensive time passed.

And what about Link? He did not compete with the Heat players and referees, but walked to the bench silently without saying a word.

The referee had no way to judge whether the ball had timed out, so he had to terminate the game and watch the video.

Through frame-by-frame video playback, the referee and the fans could clearly see that the moment the basketball left Link's hands, the red light on the rebound did not light up. The number on the rebound timer was 0.3 left!

"Link's buzzer-beating three-pointer is effective! In this way, the Heat will be 15 points behind in the last two minutes! It's so beautiful. Link's key shot that was calm in the face of danger almost killed the game!"

Mike Bryn cheered by the commentary stand. Although he was a neutral fan, neither facing the Heat nor Link, the goal just now was really exciting. Even a neutral fan could not help but want to applaud.

He "takes the blame" at the critical moment, and in the last 3 seconds James was calmly flying and then hits a shot. As before, he is a well-deserved offensive core.

"Why didn't you argue with the referee just now?" Looking at Link who was extremely calm from beginning to end, Hollins asked curiously.

Generally, for this kind of ball, shouldn't the person who scored the goal run to the referee excitedly and say that the ball just now is completely effective?

After Link scored the goal, he just ran to the bench to rest calmly, as if the referee's penalty had nothing to do with him.

However, Link just replied lightly, "I know I took action before time runs out, so there is nothing to argue with."

"Uh" Hollins wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although Link was his own player, Hollins still secretly sighed in his heart, "What a fucking confidence!"

Although the game is more than two minutes away, Link's three-pointer was simply a killing and ruining heart, which made the Heat lose their energy.

It was hard to defend until 24 seconds, but the opponent scored a goal or grabbed an offensive rebound, which was the most morale-hit.

Link's goal has long left the Heat players feeling devastated.

From the beginning of the first quarter to the fourth quarter to the present, the Heat have been chasing points. But after chasing, they can't overcome the single digit hurdle.

The suppression of the entire game has made the Heat even weaker.

In the following minutes, the Heat did not organize a decent counterattack. 32 seconds before the end of the game, when Spoelstra replaced the Big Three, the game officially ended early.

The American Airlines Center was dead silent, and everyone covered their heads with incredible hands. The invincible Miami Heat lost to the "unclassy" Memphis Grizzlies? The Heat's 17-game winning streak at home was interrupted. Link, the player with the highest score in the game, was actually the player with the highest score in the game?

These things that are difficult for Heat fans to accept have become reality.

Finally, when the electronic beep sounded again, no one went to argue with the referee again. The Grizzlies played incredible form in Miami, suppressing the Heat by 15 points!

The Heat Big Three performances are not bad today. James scored 21 points, 6 assists and 6 rebounds in 8 of 19 shots. Wade made 8 of 18 shots, 7 rebounds and 2 assists. Bosh made 8 of 15 shots, 19 points and 4 rebounds.

The Big Three scored 60 points together and had good firepower. But all of this was overshadowed in front of Link, who scored 31 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists.

Last season, Link was only tortured when he met James, but today, Link no longer suffered any losses from performance to data!

Although the Heat, who fought back to back, did have some physical exhaustion. But if you win, you win. Link used the confrontation ability he just gained to resist James' crazy biting.

Link was very happy. On the one hand, he was one step closer to becoming "Devil Mountain". On the other hand, he has also achieved a very big improvement now. If it weren't for the upgrade a few days ago, he really didn't know if he could withstand James.

Although he can't defeat the top superstar every time, at least Link won't be able to be abused every time he meets the top superstar.

After continuing Durant and Kobe, Link beat Wade and James again today. His position in the league is rushing up wildly!

After the game, the reporters found Wade, who scored the most fiercely with Link in the second quarter, "Do you have anything to say about this loss?"

Wade first looked up at Link's data, then shook his head, "What else can I say? I was completely abused by that kid."

Wade smiled bitterly. Although it was joking to say this, it also expressed Wade's helplessness and unwillingness.
