Chapter 696 (1/2)

After Popovich was expelled from the field, the Spurs seemed to lose heart for a moment.

Although the manager's role in overtime is not as big as regular time, as one of the Spurs' soul figures, Popovich's absence always makes Spurs players feel uneasy.

In the past, no matter what problems they encountered, as long as the old man stood on the sideline with his hands around his chest, the grizzly players would immediately feel at ease.

But now, when they want to find spiritual support in a critical moment, they turn around and see only the flustered chip Englander.

”Stabilize the situation, we have to fight to the end without the old man!”

Finally, Duncan gave a rare roar on the court, which calmed the Spurs' players.

However, in the case of link strong play three points, Spurs players are still a little nervous.

At the regular time, Leonard and Duncan have killed link.

But after entering the overtime, link blocked Duncan and scored three points on Leonard's head, which made young Leonard doubt the feasibility of defending link.

This guy, can you really be prevented?

So in the next few minutes, Leonard was clearly out of shape. On the offensive side, he didn't dare to attack easily, for fear of delaying the battle. On the defensive side, he became afraid of being fouled by link.

In Leonard this first blockade problems, Duncan in order to worry about Conley and can not make up for defense in time, link began to score, a uncontrollable.

”Link broke the layup, this time link and Conley cross run, so Tim Duncan didn't know who to make up for. Beautiful goal, the difference is further opened

”Link stopped the jump shot in the middle distance, Leonard retreated too hard, he gave link a lot of space to shoot. Yes, the Spurs are in danger

”Link broke through and met Leonard and Duncan. Wait a minute... Link passed the ball through the crack and sent it to Mike Conley! Duncan is willing to lose the other, Conley easy layup, no one to stop him! The Grizzlies are eight points ahead of the Spurs in the last 42 seconds! The Spurs are in danger. The Grizzlies are going to take the victory they have won

Popovich sat in the locker room and kicked the tactical whiteboard over.

What hobby Brown said just now was a stab in Popovich's heart. ”The Spurs won the game, and the Grizzlies took it.”

Popovich was thinking that if it hadn't been for that damned make-up, or if link had made it a little bit later, he would have been sitting in the media room and making fun of Grizzlies and link with all sorts of cold jokes.

Without that damned make-up, the front page headlines of major sports portals tomorrow would be the news that the Spurs stopped the Grizzlies from winning.

If...

however, there is no if in this world. That damned make-up basket was in, and it was just before the end of game time.

That make-up basket, Popovich now can only sit in the empty dressing room, angry at the TV.

That make-up basket, let Popovich's mind all the good fantasy, can only be fantasy.

Once again, Popovich's plan was broken by link. Since that dunk, link has actually sentenced Popovich to death.

In a trance, Popovich heard a sharp electronic beep coming from the TV.

After overtime, Popovich looked at the score at the bottom of the screen and shook his head.

112-101, link in overtime, 9 points, 2 assists, the game shot down 33 points, 6 rebounds, 8 assists, let the Spurs from heaven to hell.

Popovich turned off the TV, because on the screen, link was cheering with the camera.

Popovich really didn't want to see this scene. It was an insult to him.

On the field, the fans were jumping and jumping with excitement. Once again, linck turned corruption into magic. Turn a game that will be lost in 0.3 seconds into a victory.

Spurs players shake their heads in secret, and even Tim Duncan, who is ”paralyzed,” can't hide his disappointment today.

The Spurs have been chasing the Grizzlies all season, and they have done their best. Before this game, they played a proud 26-8 record, leaving behind young teams like the thunder and the Clippers.

Finally, when the opportunity to narrow the gap personally, the Spurs fell.
