Link never would have imagined that one day, he would be burned by Nick Young.
Back when he had worked alongside "Young Master Yang," it had always been the Grizzlies who went wild and drove others to death.
Today, however, the Grizzlies had been driven to death by Nick Young's own madness.
After Nick Young buried a pull-up three in transition, he had already made six three-pointers in this game!
He was 6-for-11 from beyond the arc, shooting an incredible 54.5%!
"Nick Young hits another three! He has now made at least five threes in three consecutive games, breaking the Lakers' franchise record!"
The commentators and fans erupted. Nick Young grinned broadly. Today, he had become the brightest player in Staples Center, this basketball holy ground.
Breaking a franchise record for a team with as much history as the Lakers was no small feat.
"Fuck!" Link cursed unwillingly. Nick Young had simply been too accurate today.
Then, Link looked up at the big screen.
Only thirty seconds remained, yet after Nick Young's three, the Grizzlies were down by eight.
It had to be said that things were already incredibly difficult for the Grizzlies.
But Link had not given up. He was still searching for a chance to win.
After that, Link first answered with a three-pointer of his own. Then he stole the ball from the wet-behind-the-ears Russell on defense, before drilling another pull-up three in transition.
Unfortunately, there was not enough time left. In the end, the Grizzlies could only swallow a bitter defeat, losing by two.
The Lakers fans cheered with all their might, while the young Lakers players were so excited that they looked as though they had won the championship.
Last time, Lou Williams had gone all out offensively but still failed to beat the Grizzlies.
