531: A record close at hand

On April 3, when early fans watched yesterday's Five Best Balls and found that the first place in the Grizzlies vs. Spurs. Almost 90% of people thought that the "protagonist" of this ball must be Link.

After all, Link is the most frequent player on the Grizzlies' top five players every day. What's more, this is the first place in the top five. Apart from Link, fans can't think of anyone else to replace him.

Then, an accident happened. Link didn't even get the ball in this ball. In the end, it was Mike Conley who used a beautiful crotch change in the extremely narrow space, shook Parker away and made a layup to kill the game.

This goal made the Spurs the most tragic character. Being killed in two consecutive games is not a common experience.

Some media even joked, "Spurs fans can brag about being awesome for their lifetime by being killed two consecutive games. Fans of other teams can't experience such things even if they want to."

The San Antonio Spurs, which have been away from the center of public opinion, have been completely popular in a very embarrassing way this time.

Mike Conley, who completed the final victory, also officially attracted people's attention.

After the media opening hours arrived that afternoon, the reporters around Conley were at least twice as high as usual.

This excellent defender who has been working hard finally got the reward he deserves.

During the interview, whenever a reporter mentioned issues related to Link, Conley seemed very excited.

"It's obvious that Link is an excellent leader. Link is a great achievement this year. Without him, we might not have been able to do it."

"If Link didn't have the three-pointer who equalized the final score and successfully saved the ball, I wouldn't have completed the final shot. So, for yesterday's game, I still think Link was the best player."

"We got along well, and Link's pre-season encouragement allowed me to move forward. I will continue to work hard, and our pace will not stop this year."

Between the lines, it is not difficult for reporters to discover Conley's trust and admiration for Link.

Now everyone believes that this guy who is only in the third grade is already the well-deserved leader of the Grizzlies.

After defeating the Spurs, the Grizzlies also defeated their last strong opponent in the regular season this season.

In the remaining 9 games, except for the Clippers and Lakers, the Grizzlies' opponents are not very strong. Moreover, compared with the Clippers and Lakers, the Clippers are more than a little worse than the Spurs.

That night, in an espn program, the host said, "It's only a matter of time before the Grizzlies want to win the best regular season record in the 21st century!"

A brand new alliance overlord has been born ahead of schedule!

When people encounter something that does not match their inherent impression, their first reaction is usually with repulsion.

It's like when fans hear that the once-no presence Grizzlies are about to break the league record, their first reaction is still, "No, they can't do it."

However, every day and every game, the more shocked those who have this idea are.

Because the Grizzlies' iron hooves are destroying the original pattern of the league.

On April 4, the Portland Trail Blazers, who had given up their playoff spots because of losing Aldridge, were brutally massacred by the Grizzlies.

94 to 76, the Trail Blazers saw no hope in the whole game. Mike Conley continued his outstanding form in the last game, making 7 of 11 shots in the game, scoring 20 points and 8 assists, which made Lillard very badly.

Link was also as stable as ever, sending out 23 points, 6 assists and 4 rebounds.

The Grizzlies use their overwhelming advantage to destroy the Trail Blazers without any mercy. If they fight against the Grizzlies, they will end up like this if they are not careful.

After this game, the Trail Blazers became the tenth team this season to be defended by the Grizzlies and could not score 80 in a single game, ranking first in the league!

One-eighth of the games in one season don't let the opponent score 80. What a terrible dominance this is self-evident.

Link's image in the media has also begun to change. Now, many media believe that it will be very difficult for the Thunder to eliminate the Grizzlies for two consecutive years in the playoffs.

Link still had no mercy when he played against the Lakers who suffered a Waterloo this season on April 5. The Grizzlies No. 0 scored 30 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds in the game, making Kobe's 24 points, 9 assists and 4 rebounds a slash.

Kobe has been working very hard all season. He killed a few months ago but never expected that the Lakers, who have the most luxurious configuration in recent years, actually made him play the hardest season in recent seasons.

Kobe treated every game as the last game and tried hard to move forward with the Lakers. However, the Lakers are still not stable in the playoffs.

Losing to the Grizzlies again today is undoubtedly a way for the Lakers to make the Lakers worse. But there is no way, the winner always steps on the corpse of the loser to ascend to the throne.

98 to 86, the Grizzlies beat the Lakers with 12 points. They won seven consecutive victories, with a record of 63 wins and 12 losses!

The Grizzlies' devastating offensive continued until April 12, the third-last game of the regular season, against the Los Angeles Clippers!

The Clippers are considered the last line of defense to block the Grizzlies. In April, besides the Spurs, the Clippers have always been the team most likely to win from the Grizzlies in the eyes of the media.

But today, even if the Clippers win, it doesn’t make any sense. Because until now, the Grizzlies still have only 12 games to lose! Since they were defeated by the Thunder in 0.9 seconds, the Grizzlies have not lost yet!

Even if they lose to the Clippers, the Grizzlies have a chance to break the record. After all, at this time, the Grizzlies' record is already 67 wins, and they have tied the Lakers and Mavericks' records.

Now, as long as you win another game, the Grizzlies will rewrite the record! With only one more game left in the end, it is simply a breeze for the Grizzlies.

But the Grizzlies players can't wait, and they don't want to wait until the end to break the record.

The Grizzlies' goal is very simple. Just today, at the Federal Express Arena, they have to get everything done!

※※※

The Los Angeles Clippers have played until now, but they are actually no longer willing to do anything.

This season, the Clippers' ranking is basically the same as last year, only one improvement from last season, ranking fourth in the West.

Although the Clippers have top point guards in the league like Chris Paul, considering that Griffin's growth has not met expectations, it is reasonable that their ranking cannot go further.

Being able to rank fourth is already the upper limit of the Clippers. After all, the top three Grizzlies, Thunder and Spurs in the West seem to be in the same dimension as other teams.

At present, the Clippers' record is 53 wins and 26 losses. The Nuggets, the fifth, have 50 wins and 29 losses. The sixth, the Warriors, have no chance of winning 50 wins this season.

Therefore, no matter how hard the Clippers struggle, no matter whether they lose or win in the last few games, their first round opponent will only be the Nuggets. The second round opponent will only be the winners of the first and eighth. Or you can also directly say that the Clippers' second round opponent is the Grizzlies.

The probability of the Grizzlies being blacked out is probably lower than winning the lottery.

With the playoff matchup schedule confirmed, the Clippers are now in a state of no desire. The playoffs are about to be imminent, so they naturally don't want to compete with the Grizzlies.

If the Clippers can enter the second round, the two teams will start fighting with real guns.

So, the Clippers are actually ready to watch the Grizzlies break the record.

However, this regular season that seems to have nothing to do with the Clippers has caused them to suffer a critical hit of 100 points before the start of the playoffs...
