At the beginning of the game, Link, who was fully fired, caught the Rockets off guard.

The Rockets are still preparing to find their state slowly, but Link directly attacked the killer.

D'Antoni was also a little surprised. He had watched the video of the Grizzlies' first two games and discovered Link's habit of attacking with full fire as soon as the game started.

But he didn't expect that Link would dare to do the same on the Rockets.

If the Grizzlies failed to widen enough points in the first three quarters and Link was exhausted, wouldn’t the victory become the Rockets’ bag!

Link is simply overestimating his abilities!

"You must stabilize the score and not be disrupted by the opponent's sudden attack!"

D'Antoni started shouting on the sidelines, wanting to solve the Rockets in advance? What are you thinking!

This time, Harden also became serious. Faced with Link's tight defense, he was ready to deal with it.

Link posted Harden very tightly, and most players dare not defend Harden so.

Not only are you afraid of Harden's breakthrough, but you may be suddenly hit by Harden.

But Link did the opposite, just to make Harden feel uncomfortable and to disrupt Harden's rhythm.

The more you are tolerant, the more Harden will be.

Seeing that Link was so "despite" and wanted to help him. So "Bearded" once again stretched out his unicorn arm and took the initiative to wrap it around Link, then raised his hand to prepare for a shot.

But Link did not sit and wait for death, nor did he simply raise his arms to express his innocence.

He suddenly started everything the moment Harden raised his basketball, and then suddenly pulled his arm out of Harden's arms.

Link easily completed the steal, but Harden failed to hit the bullet, but instead made a mistake.

The referee did not call a foul, and they were actually well aware of Harden's behavior. If Harden did succeed in hitting the car, it would be understandable to give a foul. But if Link still made a foul when he completed the steal, it would be a bit unforgettable.

This time, Ariza had to hug Link in advance so that Link would not easily counterattack and score the ball.

Because of the violation, the attack must start over, and the Rockets finally got the opportunity to fight a position with the Grizzlies.

D'Antoni nervously greeted Ariza on the sidelines, asking him to give Link more interference and consumption no matter what.

Link wants to score? Then let him pay the price!

D'Antoni thought, as long as the consumption is accelerated, Link, who fights back to back, may not even be able to hold on in the third quarter.

As long as Link can't get crazy, the Grizzlies won't want to take away the victory from the Toyota Center.

Ariza did as he did, and he also increased the defensive intensity to a higher level.

Link also took over the offensive ball, and did not intend to leave any effort, his desire to score was fully revealed.

Ariza's pressing made Link a little alert. It was not the Rockets' style to increase the defensive intensity so quickly.

It seems that D'Antoni also knows that he wants to resolve the game in advance.

But what's the use of knowing? Unless the Rockets can stop themselves, everything will be in vain!

Seeing that Ariza was so tightly attached, Link chose to force a breakthrough.

"Don't look down on others!" Ariza raised her chest and withstood Link's impact. She couldn't escape his defense by using this kind of rampage.

However, during the breakthrough process, Link suddenly grabbed Ariza's arm and then took a jump shot!

"Eh???" Ariza was confused. Why did this picture seem familiar?

"Doudududududu!"

Soon, the referee's whistle sounded. Trevo Ariza made a defensive foul and Link got two free throws!

"This..." D'Antoni was speechless. He never expected that Link would have completed the battle by imitating Harden just now.

This is really a way to treat someone else’s body!

Ariza covered her head with both hands and defended the referee. He swore in front of the referee that it was Link who took the initiative to entangle him.

But no matter how sincere Ariza is, it is useless, because the players who have been hit by Harden have also experienced this.

Harden has always been playing tricks and Ariza is eating melons next to him, but today, Ariza finally felt the feeling of being hit.

If it was just an ordinary foul, Ariza wouldn't care too much.

But because he had already committed a foul before in order to stop Link from attacking quickly.

Now that he has committed another foul, Ariza has applied for two consecutive fouls.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will not be able to play the remaining games in the first quarter.

"Damn, it's so cunning!" D'Antoni shouted helplessly, waved to Ariza down.

He replaced Ariza with Eric Gordon and played against the three-back lineup!

This lineup is often used when the Rockets need to quickly widen the score gap. When the "double-row" combination is on the court at the same time, the offensive firepower is still very threatening.

Now, D'Antoni has to take Gordon in advance.

However, in this way, the Rockets' defense will be very passive.

After all, Gordon is only 1.93 meters tall, which is ten centimeters shorter than Link. It is very difficult to defend Link.

At this point, D'Antoni had no choice but to let Beverly defend Link.

Although Beverly is only 1.85 meters, he often does small things to defend against big things. In the Rockets' matchup with the Warriors this season, Beverly has been sent to defend Durant.

D'Antoni trusts Beverly's defensive ability, and Beverly has never disappointed anyone.

If you want to use fierce confrontation to consume Link, no one is more suitable than Beverly.

Link made two free throws and continued to widen the gap. The Rockets immediately launched a counterattack, and Eric Gordon's running without the ball was much more agile than Ariza.

After two out-of-ball screens, Gordon received a breakthrough pass from Harden at the middle of the bottom corner.

Harden actually didn't want to pass the ball, but Link's defense didn't give him any chance.

After receiving the basketball, Gordon did not shoot immediately, but took a step back.

He doesn't want to shoot in the middle, he wants three points!

Under the system of "magic ball theory", Rocket players will not easily choose to take action in the middle distance.

As a result, Gordon failed to make the open three-pointer!

If he had just chosen to directly shoot the mid-range shot, he might have scored. But there was no if on the basketball court. Gordon missed, but there would be no chance to come again.

"What a pity. He chose to ask for a three-pointer and failed to make the ball. The Rockets still did not break the scoring drought, and the Grizzlies' counterattack hit again!"

Link didn't give the Rockets any chance to breathe. The Rockets wanted to consume Link, and Link also wanted to consume Rockets.

Think about it, if the Grizzlies lead before the fourth quarter and the Rockets are exhausted, they will not be able to organize a decent counterattack!

Moreover, Gordon missed a three-pointer at the open space, which is great good news for the Grizzlies.

As we all know, the Rockets' scoring comes from three major aspects - three-pointers, basket and free throws.

But the three-pointer is very dependent on the feel. If the Rockets feel bad today, their offensive power will be greatly reduced!

Continuous fast-paced attack, continuous impact, and accelerated Rockets' consumption are also ways to make their three-pointers feel worse.

Link was thinking, but he was hit by something while moving at high speed.

I turned my head and found out that it was Beverly!

Although Beverly is the No. 1 position, his ability to confront him is enough to misplace him in front of the wing to defend.

Bever pushed hard, causing Link to fly out of the field.

It has to be said that the fierceness of "Black Bei" on the defensive end is indeed a rare player among No. 1 players.

Seeing Beverly entangled him, Link calmly stopped suddenly and then started shooting from outside the three-point line.

Beverly thought Link would insist on breaking through to the basket, so he rushed very hard.

Little did he know that Link suddenly braked and instantly opened a little space.

Beverly's defense is indeed hard, but the height disadvantage cannot be ignored.

With the space shaken away, he was only 1.85 meters tall and could not interfere with Link's shot in time.

The three-pointer that Gordon failed to score was scored by Linked!

"brush!"

The center of Toyota is so silent that the net rolling sound emitted by the megaphone is particularly obvious.

Link made a three-pointer, and after the start, he scored 7 points in a row, playing the Rockets 7-0.

Although the difference in 7 points is not a big deal, D'Antoni was extremely nervous.

Maybe it's because he knows that 7 to 0 is just the beginning.

After that, the Rockets made two consecutive shots outside the three-point line, and Harden and Ryan Anderson's three-pointers both hit the box.

It seems that the Rockets' three-pointer was really not smooth today.

On the Grizzlies, Link scored consecutive goals.

Once he forced a box and hit Capela's head, he beat Beverly on his back and forth, and used his height to force the opponent.

When Link easily scored that goal on Beverly, who was 1.85 meters tall, D'Antoni finally couldn't sit still.

This lineup is originally at a disadvantage in defense, and if the offense is still not open, it will be a big trouble.

However, until now, the Rockets have not opened yet!

The mustache had to stop the game, and the Rockets players walked off the court with a score of 0-11.

The Grizzlies' 11 points were all obtained by Link alone!

Mike Bolling held his breath, and he had a premonition that the Rockets' nightmare was not over yet.

The difference in points may be widened even wider!
Chapter completed!
