The San Antonio Spurs have maintained strong competitiveness in the league for more than ten consecutive years. But in the Spurs, people have witnessed too many of their opponents when they are called "miracle".

In the 03-04 season playoffs, the Lakers and Spurs were in the battle. In the last moment, Duncan took the lead with O'Neal's defensive shot and overtaken the ball, and the Spurs led 73-72.

With 0.4 seconds left in the game, it seems that the Spurs' victory is a foregone conclusion. However, the young Lakers point guard Derek Fisher broke out from the free throw line, took the ball and turned back and made a move, and made a buzzer-beating final shot. All Spurs players and home spectators, including some Lakers players, were a little hunched.

0.4 seconds is enough to make a final move, and 0.4 seconds is enough to make heaven a hell. At this moment, the Spurs are sad.

December 29, 2004, this was a day that many fans and players were destined to be unforgettable. That day, countless Houston fans turned off the TV in advance because the Rockets were too far behind the Spurs in that game, and the game almost entered garbage time.

As a result, at the last moment of the game, Yao Ming and McGrady scored 15 points together to reverse the game. Well, 13 of them came from the last 35 seconds, from Tracy McGrady.

On February 10, 2007, the Magic faced the Spurs at home. Former super center Dwight Howard and Tim Duncan were in a tit-for-tat game.

0.8 seconds before the final game, the Spurs tied with the Magic. In the last attack, 21-year-old Howard threw Duncan away from the left to chase the defense, flew straight into the basket, and caught the ball in the air and smashed it directly into the basket, 106 to 104. With this 0.8 second free-kick, the Magic won the final victory. Once again, the San Antonio Spurs witnessed the miracle of others.

Today is January 11, 2013. The San Antonio Spurs played against the Memphis Grizzlies away. In the last 12 seconds, the Spurs were still leading by 2 points. And most importantly, the Grizzlies' leading forward was blocked in the last attack and caused calf cramps due to extreme fatigue.

It seems that the Spurs are close to victory. They can guarantee victory by just defending the opponent's three-pointer. They can even let the opponent score a 2-pointer, because if the game is dragged into overtime, the victory is likely to belong to the Spurs.

When the opponent's three-point shooting percentage has a cramp in his calf, he will defend against the opponent's three-pointer.

Well, it sounds quite simple.

But the San Antonio Spurs are often forced to witness the moment known as "miracle".

Stevens looked at Link, then took a marker pen and started writing and drawing on the tactical board.

Instead of sitting on the bench, Link stood next to Stevens, moving his cramped right leg.

Tim Duncan walked straight towards the Grizzlies bench, as if he was fine and came to the middle of the Grizzlies players.

As soon as Stevens looked up, he looked at Duncan, and then there was a burst of embarrassing silence.

"Tim, you're in the wrong place." Stevens pointed to the opposite side, and then more than ten pairs of eyes were staring at the silly No. 21.

"Oh," Duncan scratched his head, "I'm a little dizzy."

Link almost got cramped again by Duncan. He just got cramped by him, and this time he almost got laughed!

Link has seen the opponent's players coming to eavesdrop on tactics many times online, but he didn't expect that he had experienced it himself...

It has to be said that after entering the league, Duncan's image was completely subverted in Link's mind.

In the past, he thought Duncan was a serious silent man. Now it seems that he is completely a silly sculpture of a considerable age.

Fortunately, Duncan didn't hear anything just now, because Stevens' tactics had been arranged before Duncan came.

"Link, is it really okay?" Seeing that the suspension time was almost over, Stevens stood up from the small bench and looked Link in the eyes.

"I've already scored 41 points, Brad, I don't mind getting two more points. Do you believe me?"

"Of course, Link, you are the player I believe the most." After Stevens answered, the electronic beep broke through the brief tranquility. Link stepped into the court with a tired smile.

"In the last 12 seconds, wait, Link is still on the court, he has to persist in finishing this game! Although his calf cramps just now, Link is still standing on the court! The King of Tennessee is still protecting his territory!" Hubby Brown was immediately excited. The Grizzlies' unbeaten record at home? In fact, everyone knows that this record will be broken sooner or later.

But no one hopes it is today, no one hopes it is losing to the Spurs!

“mvp!mvp!mvp!mvp!”

After seeing Link appear on the court, all the fans stood up and shouted. Popovich felt his scalp numb, and that guy could still stand up!

But it doesn't matter. Link's layup just now has proved that he can't complete the offense efficiently. This time, Leonard will definitely be able to defend him!

Amid the cheers of the fans, Conley came over to take the ball and spent time. Link stood on the right horn, and Leonard and Link were close together, so close that they twisted their heads and could kiss each other with their mouths.

Link felt the entire stadium was shaking, but he was not nervous, but excited.

He likes this feeling, and some people are born for this moment!

In the last 8 seconds, Conley began to move and Link started running. According to Stevens' tactics, the Black and White Bears will cover Link and Conley respectively, create chaos, and then hand over the ball.

But at this moment, an accident happened. Frenchman Tony Parker scored 30 points today. He didn't want his victory night to be destroyed like this. So Parker calmly started the moment Conley started.

"Oh no!" Conley felt that the basketball had lost control. The next second, the basketball flew to the sideline and he took off!

Parker jumped and beat the ball, and he almost got the basketball. But in the end, Parker just touched the basketball with his fingertips and poked it out of the sideline.

The outbound ball is still the Grizzlies' ball, but everything is in chaos.

There were only 3.2 seconds left, and the tactics that Stevens had just arranged was equivalent to nonsense! Because just now, he did not arrange a sideline ball battle at all.

Stevens prepared two plans, one that Link can catch the ball, and the other that Link can't catch the ball, and Conley's winning plan.

But there is no line ball tactic!

No one could have imagined that the ball was touched!

Popovich still frowned, but the others on the Spurs' bench were already celebrating the victory in advance. Without tactical arrangements, the Grizzlies were in a tired state and wanted to take the sideline ball to the final goal in 3.2 seconds?

wishful thinking!

Just when Conley was still blaming himself, Link hurriedly summoned everyone and whispered a few words. Then, everyone dispersed and continued the competition!

"What did he say to them?" Elston Turner asked anxiously.

"Only God knows!" Stevens' palms were full of sweat. Now, it all depends on Link!

It is already rare and valuable that he can gather everyone to discuss countermeasures at a critical moment without being scared.

Can he do more? Stevens believes that the kid can do it!

Gasol Jr. went out of bounds, and he next served the sideline ball. The Grizzlies' positions were not scattered. It seemed that they were going to make a series of unball covers.

Leonard grabbed Link's jersey, and Link kept slapping Leonard's hand off him, repeating this. Before receiving the basketball, the war actually began.

The referee whistled, and Link rushed out with a steadily. The tactic he had just discussed for everyone was very simple, "Give me a cover and pass the ball to me!"

As for what to do after receiving the ball? Link doesn't have time to think about it.

Link went out to receive the pass from Gasol Jr. through his teammates' cover. The reason for choosing Gasol Jr. was to look at Gasol Jr.'s vision and passing skills. He could ensure that the ball was passed under any circumstances.

Link's physical strength was completely exhausted, so he was not fast. As soon as he received the ball, Leonard forced him up.

So, Link began to dribble along the arc outside the three-point line, looking for a way to get rid of defense. Looking at the timer on the rebound, Link suddenly leaned back and jumped in the run!

Shooting in the dribble was a technical move that Link practiced hard last summer. This season, he has hit the ball that dribbled countless times and shot directly.

But this time, it's of great significance.

Leonard failed to take off immediately, Link's shot was too sudden! Even though Leonard reacted quickly, no matter how fast the reaction process was, it would take time.

In addition, Link's body leaned back slightly, so Leonard was even more difficult to interfere with this ball!

"Can the King of Tennessee complete this last blow when he takes action directly from the three-point line?" Hubby Brown yelled heart-wrenchingly. At the age of 80, with gray hair, he felt his blood vessels burning like he was young.

The red light on the rebound shone on the basketball, and Popovich stared at the last "bullet" that Link shot, unable to help but cover his heart.

"Beep~~~~~~"

"brush!"

The beep and the sound of the nets rolling sounded at the same time, and the basketball hit!

"Baohu!" Randolph cursed and headed straight for Link.

"There's a fucking thing about you! Awesome Link, God, you did it!" Iguodala opened his arms incoherently. He had never been so crazy in his career.

In the stands, the fans made a lot of waves. The players on the Grizzlies' bench jumped into the stadium. Even Stevens couldn't help it, and pulled off the annoying tie and rushed up with everyone.

And what about Link? He ran to the midfield line, wrapped his hands around his chest, and looked calm and calm, which formed a sharp contrast with the madness of the whole game.

It was as if he had known that it would happen.

The Grizzlies players raised Link up, and in the stands, the cheers of MVP never stopped. Link ascended the throne under the cheers and crowds of everyone!

San Antonio Spurs? Who cares about them!
Chapter completed!
