"Link is a little inflated. He seems to have forgotten that he just lost to the Denver Nuggets. It's hard for me to imagine where he got the courage to say those words."

"Link's three-point miss at a critical moment in the last game caused the Grizzlies to lose the game. To be honest, his ability to control the game at a critical moment is not particularly strong. Compared with Kobe, he is not at the same level at all."

"The Lakers don't care whose home court this is, all they want is victory. The record is for being broken. The Grizzlies have never lost at home since the playoffs last season. Then this record will be broken by the Los Angeles Lakers."

Finally, November 23rd came. When he just returned from Denver a few days ago, Link felt very tired. But without playing for three days, Link felt like his body was almost rusted.

Today he is full of energy, full of energy, and eager to fight!

As Link expected, after the interview yesterday afternoon, Link immediately became the object of condemnation by the media.

After all, who dares to disrespect Kobe and the Lakers? Just like when any newcomer dared to challenge Jordan and the Bulls, he would be criticized for being incomplete.

Link actually has no prejudice against the Lakers. His personal relationship with Kobe is also very good. Those words are purely against the media.

But it was like Kobe and James had a good personal relationship, but the fans criticized each other every day.

No matter how good your relationship between Link and Kobe is, in the eyes of reporters and fans, Link and Kobe are now mortal enemies!

A young boy spoke wildly in front of Kobe? He really didn't know how high the world was.

Although Link had the experience of defeating Kobe last season, everyone believes that Kobe, who is in a hot state, will make Link realize his mistakes.

Link looked at the news on the newspapers and mobile phones, and the media completely portrayed him as an arrogant guy.

But he was too lazy to defend anything. As long as he won, he had to accept it or not!

After breakfast, Link drove out of the door. When he got in the car, he still sent a text message to Kobe, "The game begins!"

※※※

Federal Express Arena, a place that was once famous but now becomes extremely hot because of a word from Link.

"Since the start of the playoffs last season, the Grizzlies have never lost at home! There is no doubt that this is something worth making all Grizzlies players proud. But the Los Angeles Lakers are likely to kill this pride!" Before the game began, Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley and O'Neal were already mobilizing the atmosphere of the game.

That's right, t.nt TV sent their strongest "Cute Three-Man Team" to the scene to explain the competition. This shows how much t.nt attaches great importance to this competition.

"That's right, although the 1 win and 4 losses at the beginning made people sad. But now, the Los Angeles Lakers have won four consecutive games. I know Kobe, I know his style. That guy will not give up any chance to continue winning streak, even in the unbeaten Federal Express Arena!" O'Neal said, Kobe walked out of the player channel and began to warm up.

For a moment, O'Neal felt like a different life. In his impression, Kobe was still the naughty boy wearing No. 8. But now, look at him.

He has become one of the greatest players in the league.

"You all heard about it. Yesterday, Link severely provoked Kobe and the Lakers when he was interviewed." Barkley took the conversation and continued to chat.

"Although it's more like Link expressing dissatisfaction with the media, those words may change their minds when they reach Kobe's ears. What do you think about this? Do you think Kobe will be angry? Shaq."

O'Neal looked at the camera and shook his big head, "You're better not to say anything to Kobe before and during the game. I mean, don't! If you infuriate Kobe, it will be a long night. After the game, you may be able to laugh with him, but before and during the game, no, don't try to irritate him."

"Oh? Even Shaq, are you afraid of being afraid of? Are you also afraid of swearing trash with Kobe?" Barkley quipped.

"No, those words just now were what Jason Terry told me before. And what I told him was that you were extremely right!"

Under the commentary of the funny trio, the referee signaled both sides to return to the bench and the game began soon!

Link and Kobe did not hug before the game this time. Kobe's expression was very serious since he stepped onto the court. On the contrary, Howard was still laughing and joking when facing the camera.

Link guessed that this is probably an important reason why they didn't get together.

Although it was not the first time to play against Kobe's team, Link was still a little nervous. He did not come to hug him, which means he had regarded himself as the number one target! Their hostility will end only after the game is over.

Kobe today will show mercy!

A few minutes later, the players from both sides stepped into the court. The Grizzlies were still the same, and Stevens did not change the formation, nor did they need to change the formation.

On the Lakers, D'Antoni's lineup was different from the beginning of the season.

Gasol and Howard are partnering with the inside, inside and outside, there is no doubt. Kobe and Artest are partnering with the wing, there is no problem. But at the No. 1 position, D'Antoni used last year's second round pick Dalius Morris.

Nash and Steve Blake were both injured, leaving the Lakers with no number one position available.

As a coach who likes to use point guards as the core, he only has one No. 1 player who doesn't play well and even has a tough time serving as a No. 1 player.

This shows how much struggle D'Antoni is leading the Lakers.

Before the game started, after standing in the designated position, Kobe whistled at Link.

Link looked at Kobe, but found that Kobe did not speak kindly with him, but counted with his fingers, stretching out his fingers one by one from one to five, and finally opened his palm to Link and compared a "5".

Although he didn't say anything, Kobe's expression and his movements made Link know clearly what Kobe was talking about.

Just like what Jordan said to Kobe back then, Kobe is now using Link, "I have five championships, and you don't have any nonsense! Wait for death, junior!"

The referee threw the basketball into the air, and Howard jumped hard and rushed to Dalius Morris before Gasol Jr.

Although he experienced a serious back injury last season, Howard's athletic ability is still unmatched.

The Lakers just got the ball, but Link actually heard a sparse cheer from the stands.

When I looked up, I realized that there were many Lakers fans coming to the scene today. The Los Angeles Lakers' appeal is indeed well-deserved.

This is just right, so you can see how the Grizzlies keep their home unbeaten!

In the first attack at the beginning, the Lakers hit Howard and asked him to fight Gasol Jr. in the interior.

It can be seen that the Lakers don't want to waste Howard's inside killer. Even if he is unwilling to play pick-and-roll, the Lakers are willing to take the ball in and play Howard.

Howard may have thought Gasol was easy to bully, so he didn't think much about it after getting the ball, and turned around and broke through, trying to break through!

Little did he know that Gasol's defense was very tough! It can be said that he was several times tougher than his brother Paul Gasol!

Failed to get rid of Gasol completely, Howard could only strengthen his defense.

But when pressed closely, even athletic man like Howard is difficult to score the ball.

Gasol raised his arms high, Howard threw the ball towards the basket with his stiff feel. Then, without a doubt, the basketball hit the frame! The Lakers missed the first attack, and Gasol's ability to protect the frame this season is not a blow!

Randolph took the rebound, and Artest immediately rushed to Link rudely, preventing the Grizzlies from attacking.

Don't think that this guy changed his name to charity. World peace will make him really peaceful. This guy is still the same as before, and he does everything on the defensive end.

But the Grizzlies did not play quickly. Conley passed the half with ease against Dalius Morris' defense.

Then, Link and Iguodala pulled to the bottom corners on both sides respectively, Kobe's brows became deeper and deeper. What did the Grizzlies want to do?

Finally, Conley hangs the ball to Randolph, and they want to play inside!

Howard and Gasol were in a sluggish state, and Stevens decided to seize this opportunity to hit the Lakers in a low post!

In this way, it will not only further hit Howard and Gasol's confidence. Most importantly, it can also help Link save a lot of physical strength in the early stage.

Randolph was not afraid of Gasol. Although his height difference was 7 cm, his condition was more than 7 cm.

Randolph took a deep breath and sat back suddenly. After pushing Gasol out of space, he immediately turned over and jumped into the jump shot.

"brush!"

The basketball was easily hollowed into the net, but Link didn't even get the ball, so the Grizzlies scored!

"The Memphis Grizzlies took the lead in opening up the situation, and the Lakers' inside status is now a problem! This set of the most expensive double towers in the league may be defeated again."

Kobe was not in a hurry after seeing Randolph score. He looked at Link, and probably that guy must have to save his energy until the end.

So Kobe and Ci Shiping whispered a few words, and Ci Shiping nodded obediently.

"Leave that kid to me." Keru said to Ci Shiping.
Chapter completed!
