: Eight hundred and thirty-nine: Need space

Latest URL: Good job, Dwight, James! We completely suppressed each other and we played as smoothly today as the previous 6 games! They have been exhausted and powerless, as long as we maintain in the second quarter, the balance of victory will be completely tilted! "
McHale was so excited that he just danced on the spot. Since the start of the new season, the Grizzlies have won 6 games and the points difference in 6 games is in double digits. There has never been any team that can suppress the Grizzlies as embarrassed as they are today!
Even the Cleveland Cavaliers did not take advantage of the Grizzlies. But the Rockets did it, and they still have a chance to keep this suppression!
Of course McHale feels proud. Although the Grizzlies play in the incomplete team, as long as they can win, who cares if you play in the incomplete team?
In competitive sports, winning is the last word. People will only remember that the 2008 championship is the Celtics, but will not remember that the Lakers lost Bynum, an inside pillar.
People will only remember that the Lakers completed the revenge of the Big Three of the Green Army in 2010 and achieved two consecutive championships, but they will not remember that the Green Jerseys lost Perkins.
Injuries are never an excuse for losing, and the winner will not be ashamed of winning a team with an uneven lineup.
The Lakers' two consecutive championships are still praised, and the Celtics' Big Three championships are still full of gold.
Therefore, even in the face of the Grizzlies, McHale is still proud of the team's performance.
In the second quarter, if Harden and Howard can bring more foul troubles to the Grizzlies, then the Rockets win is a sure thing!
Winning the King of the World is extremely exciting just thinking about it.
Soon, the electronic buzzer at the end of the intermission interrupted McHale's fantasy. But he is not angry, because he knows that after the start of the second quarter, all illusions will become reality!
"At the beginning of the second quarter, Harris played 12 minutes in the first quarter. I don't know if he will continue to play. If he doesn't play, who will the Grizzlies play in the fourth position? Send Gasol and Azeri The twin towers lineup?" Before the game, the Houston local commentator was gloating about the Grizzlies’ starting lineup in the second quarter.
It seems to him that the Grizzlies are in a situation where no one is available, which is very happy.
On the court, Georg looked at his second quarter starter, and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Link seemed to see through Georgel's doubts, so he smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, leave it to me! Let's go!"
With a big wave of his hand, Link took his four teammates into the court again.
McHale craned his neck from the sidelines and was happy after seeing the Grizzlies start the second quarter.
"Conley, Tony Allen, Vince Carter, Link and Gasol, the Grizzlies sent one big and four small lineups in the second quarter! Butler, Harris and Azerley were not present! Grizzlies The team is very passive now, because this is a lineup that has never played together this season. This means that the Grizzlies are in a situation where no one is available."
Howard is eager to become a big or four, and the Grizzlies' inside defense is even weaker! He believes that the Rockets will be able to embrace victory in advance after the half-time game is over!
The live camera also gave Link a close-up, but Link was expressionless, as if he was not worried about the current situation.
However, everyone at the scene believed that Link would not be able to hold it in 5 minutes at most!
With Conley, Tony Allen, Carter, and Gasol Jr., Houstonians don't think that Link with this "semi-disabled" lineup can play a climax of reversing the situation.
Besides, among these people, Gasol has fouled twice. As long as he fouls one more time, he has to go off the court and rest again.
The Grizzlies are gone, unless Link is a team player alone, otherwise the Grizzlies are hopeless!
The game restarted amid the cheers of the Houston fans, and Link took the ball on the first attack in the second quarter.
Motel Yunas did not defend Link. The Rockets are not stupid and will not let this dislocation easily form.
Ariza defended in front of Link as always, and Motai Yunas went to guard against Carter at a much slower speed.
Link didn't ask for a pick and roll, his eyes were fixed on Ariza, as if ready to dispatch at any time.
Ariza was ready to deal with the breakthrough, but when Link accelerated, Ariza's reaction was still half a beat slow.
Link's first step was too fast, and Ariza couldn't stop him at the first time.
Although Link surpassed most of his position, Ariza was not worried.
After all, Howard is still in charge!
"Come on, come on, come on..." Howard stood under the basket, muttering to himself.
He was ready to get Link in the air at any time.
Link leaned on Ariza to get inside, staring at the basket. Just as Howard was about to take off, Link threw the ball beyond the three-point line.
At 45° on the right, Marc Gasol is already in place!
"What!?" Howard was stunned. He didn't expect Gasol to pull outside the three-point line.
Gasol did occasionally hit a three-pointer in the regular season, but that was not Gasol's conventional weapon. Generally speaking, no one will deliberately prevent Gasol's three-pointers.
It was the same this time, Howard focused on Link but ignored Gasol.
After Gasol received the basketball, there were no defensive players around. This was a real big open space.
The Spaniard knows that whether the subsequent game can go smoothly depends on today's three-pointers!
So Gasol resisted the pressure, spent some time aiming at the basket, and then took off!
Gasol takes a long time to prepare before shooting, after all, he doesn't often shoot three-pointers. But even so, no Rockets players stepped forward even to stretch out their hands.
They seemed to be petrified, standing still watching Gasol slowly make a move. Because the entire Rockets believe that the Grizzlies are gambling!
"Have the Grizzlies come to the point where they have to rely on the center to bet on three points? It's sad!" McHale even shook his head slightly off the court.
Just when Howard was about to pocket the rebounds, Gasol's basketball went straight into the net and landed on the wooden floor!
"Marc Gasol made a hollow three-pointer...but the Grizzlies can't rely on this to reverse the situation."
The Nets are shaking, although Howard and the local commentator are trying to comfort themselves. But they all know that Marc Gasol's goal is no coincidence.
If you really allow him such a big gap, he can really score.
Howard turned his head and glanced at McHale, McHale was also a little surprised. He didn't expect the Grizzlies to win the bet! To be on the safe side, he signaled Howard not to let Gasol go as big as he did next.
A three-pointer, but instantly let the Rockets lead by only 5 points. Today, the Rockets do not want to give the Grizzlies any chance, any possibility of a comeback.
The Grizzlies want to use Gasol to leave Howard? It doesn't matter, they also have a 2.13 meter Motel Yunus. Moreover, Howard doesn't really need to chase beyond the three-point line to defend.
To interfere with the three-pointers of players like Gasol, you just need to reach out.
After the Rockets attacked, Howard retaliated, and Gasol succeeded in the low post. Gasol's problem is the same as in the first quarter, because he doesn't want to foul so the defense is not fierce enough, and Howard likes this soft defense most.
The point difference returned to 7 points, and all the Houstonians breathed out. Can Marc Gasol kill the game with a three-pointer? Obviously that is impossible. But Howard can kill the game in the low post, the Grizzlies still have no chance of winning!
After Howard retreated to the basket again, he found that Gasol was still on standby from the three-point line!
Although reluctant, Howard left the basket and ran to the mid-range position.
He will not defend Gasol, but at least he has to be able to interfere immediately when Gasol is preparing to shoot a three-pointer. Therefore, Howard chose to set up a defense in the middle distance.
And in the middle distance, once Link breaks through, Howard can immediately return to the basket.
Howard instantly felt that he was simply the greatest defensive master in the world, and he thought he had cracked the Grizzlies' conspiracy.
Link held the ball to face Ariza for the second time in a row, and Howard was ready. If all goes well, he might be able to steal Link's pass to Gasol.
Link gritted his teeth while looking at Howard who was standing at the middle distance.
Thanks to Gasol's three-pointer, the chance to counterattack has finally come!
Link took a step to the left of Ariza, and then quickly changed direction!
A beautiful Crossover, Link left Ariza behind for the second round in a row.
"Fuck, it's useless!" Seeing Ariza being swayed like a stake by Link, Howard whispered in his heart. After that, he turned around and rushed to the basket.
Howard thought he could stop Link for the first time, but Link was like a sports car speeding 200% on the highway. In the blink of an eye, he flashed past Howard!
It seems that Howard still knows nothing about Link's speed.
Just two steps out of Howard, he saw Link "floating" into the air as if suddenly losing gravity, slamming the ball into the frame with one hand!
This dunk was so powerful that the fans at the Toyota Center seemed to have received a heavy hammer on their chests.
Link hung on the basket with one hand and roared! The suppression of the first quarter of the game, all the frustrations, have been released!
This dunk is not just a successful offense, but also represents the Grizzlies' strategic success.
Today, the referee's whistle is very unfriendly to him, so it is not a way to fight Howard.
So Link suggested that the team open up space for him during the break. As long as Gasol helps open up the space, even if it's just a little space, Link is confident that Howard can't touch him, so as to successfully end the offense!
What if the Rockets send others to defend Link? does not matter. Because the Grizzlies now all five players on the court have three-point ability, this is why the Grizzlies play one big and four small!
Georgel was very worried at the beginning, because this tactic, to put it bluntly, relied on Link's personal ability. With limited space, can Link score the ball? If not, this lineup with almost no defensive ability on the inside is equivalent to a free pass.
But seeing Link hung on the hoop and roared ~EbookFREE.me~George was relieved instantly. As Link said himself, Howard couldn't touch him at all!
"Don't be proud, we are still ahead!" On the court, Howard saw Link being so arrogant, so he couldn't help but spray when he went to the basket to pick up the ball.
"Don't be arrogant. At the end of the half-time game, I promise you and your bearded friends will not laugh!"
Link dealt with Howard lightly, not at all irritated by his botched trash talk.
Howard's veins are violent, and he hates this feeling of being looked down upon! The purpose of spamming is to irritate the other party. If the other party is not painful or itchy, it is yourself that is irritated.
Link didn't continue to struggle with Howard, but quickly turned around to retreat. He believes that as long as this attack can be scored once, there will be a second and third time!
Once the Pandora's Box is opened, it cannot be closed.
Test personal ability? The last thing Link lacks is his personal ability! The defending champion's counterattack began.
