The fourth quarter lasted for a few more minutes, but the situation did not improve at all.

"Splash Brothers" have been completely lost by the Grizzlies' tough and tight defense today. After they appeared again, they still frequently made blacksmiths.

How bad did Curry and Thompson feel today? In the middle of the fourth quarter, Curry even lost both free throws.

At the critical moment of chasing points, the Warriors not only failed to make three-pointers, but also made several mistakes in a row.

In the end, the Warriors lost 85-98. They were ambitious and were strangled at the Federal Express Arena.

In the previous two rounds of games, the Warriors averaged 108.4 points per game. Today, they didn't even get 90 points.

The Warriors' lowest score game this season was 86 points against the Clippers on December 25 last year. Today, the Warriors were forced to break their single-game minimum score record this season.

Previously, in the game where the opponent scored no more than 100 points, the Warriors won all 44 games! But today, the Grizzlies defeated the Warriors with 98 points.

These shocking numbers fully reflect the differences between the Grizzlies and other teams.

The Warriors may be able to act recklessly on other teams, but in Memphis, they can't imagine it!

After the electronic beeping that represented the end of the game, the Warriors' team was dejected, which was in sharp contrast to their proud temperament before the game.

The Warriors players should indeed be frustrated because they have no advantages in this game. The difference between the overall data of the two teams is already obvious enough.

However, the comparison of personal data of the two teams' players is even more terrible!

At the end of the game, Link's data had become 33 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists, 6 steals and 5 blocks.

He not only scored the first 5x5 data in the playoffs, but also a triple-double 5x5 data.

At the same time, this is also the first triple-double that Link has scored so far in this playoffs!

In the first two rounds of games, Link's data has always been very ordinary. Except for the 40 points in a single game against the Pelicans in the third game in the first round, there are almost no highlights.

But today, Link told you with practical actions. The reason why his first two rounds was average was not because he was not strong, but because he didn't have to work so hard at all to win the game.

When he needs to take out beautiful data, he can take it out at any time!

And those previous remarks that data attacked Link were self-defeating.

Because today, the Warriors have no data on anyone, and they can be compared with Link.

Stephen Curry only scored 19 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists today. In addition, he only hit 36.8% in the game, and only 2 of 11 three-pointers were made. That's right, except for the three-pointer he made on Conley's head at the beginning, Curry only scored one three-pointer since then!

His performance is really hard to be excellent.

In the first two rounds of the series, Curry's data was much more gorgeous than Link. But today, the whole world understands why Curry can only rank second in the MVP selection.

In this two-way match, Curry completely lost.

Another offensive core of the Warriors, Klay Thompson, scored only 13 points today. He made 1 of 6 shots outside the three-point line and was blocked by Tony Allen.

As for Draymond Green...that's another sad story.

Green scored 14 points and 12 rebounds today, which seemed pretty good at first glance.

But among these 14 points, Green's total 8 points came from free throws! In the sports game, Green made 11 shots today, but only scored 2 goals. A shooting percentage of 27.3%, ranking last among all players who played for more than 30 minutes.

It can be said that today, the data of Curry, Thompson and Green are not as amazing as Link.

Before the game, Curry yelled that he didn't want to lose anymore, while Green yelled that he wanted Link to try out the Warriors' defensive strength.

However, today, they both failed.

"After the game, the Memphis Grizzlies took the lead and turned the total score of the series into 1-0. Link is undoubtedly the biggest star today. He showed his MVP-level strength to the fullest. Of course, the performance of the other Grizzlies is not bad, and their tenacious style must have left a very deep impression on the Warriors."

"That's right, I think everyone on the Warriors will definitely not be so confident anymore. The Memphis Grizzlies are not the Dallas Mavericks, nor the Houston Rockets. They are the defending champions! The Warriors really experienced it today,"

Mike Bryn and Hubby Brown both praised the Grizzlies. As the defending champions, the Grizzlies let the Warriors know what the real championship level is.

The Warriors have always wanted to subvert this alliance and break the Grizzlies' rule.

But in fact, they have never fought with the Grizzlies who are fully fired.

Today, Link let the Warriors see for the first time how the Grizzlies play in the playoffs.

On the sidelines, Stephen A. Smith found Link in a good mood. In fact, he has always been one of Link's supporters. In his usual shows, he has expressed his love and respect for Link more than once.

Now that he saw Link win the ball in such a perfect way, he was naturally very happy.

"Link, congratulations, you're the first player in NBA playoff history to win 5x5 data! How do you feel? You must be very happy now, right?"

"Of course, I think my ears will be quiet after today. To be honest, I'm simply fed up with Green and Bogut's unsatisfactory trash talk." Link did not hesitate to use Green and Bogut to open the game.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gasol walked behind Link with two paper cups and poured all the water on Link's head.

This is the hardcore way for Grizzlies players to celebrate.

Link did not dodge, but just lowered his head slightly, and still kept a smile on his face.

"So today, have you experienced what Draymond Green said about tough defense?" Stephen A. Smith is not an honest person, so he deliberately asked some questions that would embarrass the Warriors.

"Is there any? Have you seen a tough defense today? I have repeatedly snatched basketballs from Green and Bogut, and they were as weak as if they weren't full. But I'm used to it. Green and Bogut have always been just talking. They said they would stop me from getting pretty data, but I fucking broke the playoff record... Well, maybe the tough defense they said was at this level."

Link showed no mercy and attacked Green and Bogut hard.

At the post-match press conference, people were expecting Green and Bogut to fight back against Link. But in the end they found that the two brothers did not appear...

This time, Green and Bogut finally became quiet.

At the press conference, only Steve Cole, the good old man, was saying something irrelevant.

"It's natural for the Grizzlies to win this game, they controlled the rhythm of the game the whole game. They kicked our butts and we wanted the game to fall into our rhythm, but the result was obviously not what we wanted, and we were going to learn something from this game."

"There were some weird whistles in the game, but that wasn't the reason we lost, we even missed a lot of simple layups."

"Link was doing well and we couldn't stop him at all. He was undoubtedly a great player. It was really difficult to steal the victory from him."

Cole's tone of "sacrificing defeat" naturally couldn't arouse the reporters' interest. The press conference finally ended in a hurry, and it seemed that the Warriors had raised the white flag in advance.

After all the reporters left, Cole inserted one hand into his hair and clenched his fists silently with the other.

Of course he would not admit defeat. What he said and thought was not exactly the same as what he thought.

Cole wants to win, just like his players. Today's game has proved that if you do it as usual, the Warriors have no chance of winning!

Cole took a deep breath and stood up.
Chapter completed!
