: 327: Rattlesnake Strikes

After T.NT TV’s forward-looking show, Memphis fans are confident in the playoffs.
The only two players in the league who can get 20+5+5 stats, Link has a place. Can you not be confident?
There are even many media claims that Link is little James.
Of course, Link and James can't actually fight together. Apart from playing small forwards and demanding their own diet, there is nothing similar. From the perspective of play, he can't even be regarded as a type of player.
But the media just love hype. Wasn’t Mayo still the upper limit and the lower limit for Kobe...
T.NT's playoff preview program has made the entire playoffs hot. And on April 28th, fans finally saw the style of the playoffs.
The second Spurs in the Western Conference fought with the seventh Mavericks at home before the final decision was made. This "Bull and Horse War" was considered a game of disparity in strength. But in the playoffs, everyone will not give up.
Nowitzki scored 25 points. Old Terry scored 8 out of 10 and scored 20 points. These players, who seemed to have shown their aging status in the regular season, completely changed in the playoffs.
In the end, the Spurs won a thrilling victory with Parker's CIC lore. This game is undoubtedly a good start for the playoffs. The Spurs and Mavericks gave the whole league a look, and let the world see what the playoffs should look like.
No team is stable. What matters here is not the ranks of the regular season, but whether you are capable.
Unlike the Spurs and Mavericks, some teams are still quiet in the rhythm of the regular season, so they have been abused.
The New York Knicks this year can be described as ups and downs, playing poorly at the beginning of the season, and then a wave of "Lin Madness" allowed them to stabilize their position in the top eight in the East. But then the Knicks had a discord, D'Antoni dismissed get out of class and Jeremy Lin was reimbursed for the season.
These, let the Knicks enter into the muddle. Until today, playing in the playoffs, the Knicks are still confused. As a result, the Heat beat the Knicks with the score.
Anthony made just 3 of 15 shots in the game, "slashing" 11 points. And James scored 32 points with a 71.4% shooting rate, blasting Anthony.
So you must be prepared in the playoffs, as long as one is inattentive, the opponent will catch and fight!
The first day of the playoffs was quite tragic. Link also watched two games at home to experience the intensity and atmosphere of the playoffs in advance.
The Grizzlies will not play until the next day after the start of the playoffs. It is a blessing to be able to rest for one day.
But sitting at home, Link was ready to move. Seeing the other team playing so fiercely, he couldn't wait to get on the court.
The scoring core of the Grizzlies has completely entered a fighting state.
※※※
When Link entered the Federal Express Arena to warm up, he found that the wooden floor of the arena had been changed. On both sides of the two halves, a few wooden floors with the words "NBA Playoffs" were replaced.
Link went up and jumped, I have to say that the NBA's technology for changing the arena floor is really mature. CCTV once broadcasted a feature film that introduced how the Staples Center changed three homes in one day.
From the ice hockey rink to the Lakers home to the Clippers home, the transition time is less than an hour. Among them, we must pay attention to the waterproof problem of the conversion from the ice hockey rink to the basketball court, and prevent moisture from being left under the floor, otherwise the players will easily slip and fall.
So for the NBA staff, just changing a few floors with the words playoffs is not difficult at all.
Link looked around, and now there was no one in the stands. But in an hour, it will be filled with enthusiastic Memphis fans.
In the past, the Grizzlies may not have such appealing power. Even if the government introduced the trick that "those who turned in guns can get free tickets", the Grizzlies' home court might not be full.
But now, Link is not worried that no fans will come to watch. This is the first time in the history of the Grizzlies that they have gained home court advantage in the playoffs. This is the first time that Memphis fans can cheer their home team at home in advance.
Since joining the Grizzlies, Link and the team have created too many firsts. Fighting at home today, you must not go wrong.
Subsequently, the pre-match activities proceeded step by step. Warm up, accept interviews, opponents arrive, finally deploy, step into the court.
The Grizzlies players are very serious today, Randolph even greets everyone to warm up from time to time. They cherish the home court advantage for the first time more than any team.
On George Carr's side, he was still eloquent before the game, "I have mastered the way to defeat the Grizzlies, you will wait and see."
This gunpowder-flavored game is about to start, waiting for the referee to blow his whistle.
"Dudududu!"
The referee's whistle sounded and the basketball went deep into the air under the gaze of tens of thousands of fans. The Grizzlies’ playoff journey started with Memphis for the first time!
"At the beginning of the game, the Grizzlies were the first to compete for basketball by Marc Gasol. The playoff journey for the Grizzlies has officially begun!" Hubby Brown finished speaking and glanced at the Nuggets' starting lineup.
The point guard is Ty Lawson, who can't move, and the shooting guard is Afflalo, who is known as the "Rattlesnake". The forward line is composed of Italian shot Gallinari and "half orc" Farid. The center is played by Kufus, who looks to be at least 10 years older than his actual age.
The Nuggets' lineup looks like nothing worth mentioning, but this is the style of George Carr. Most of his academic coaches pursue team basketball, so they don't like superstars. Perhaps this is why he can't get along with most superstars.
Link fell to the right horn amidst the cheers of the fans. He was still thinking that he might be able to torture the Italian with speed and confrontation today. As a result, as soon as Link took his position, his defender came up, and it was not Gallinari!
"Aaron Afflaro defended in front of Link. Coach George Carr sent Afflalo to confront Link! It seems that he really doesn't want Link to score easily!" Hu Bi. Brown shook his head. Old Karl, as expected, was not soft at all.
As soon as he came up, he put the greatest pressure on Link.
Afflalo entered the industry in 2007, with mediocre athleticism and not a big scoring killer. However, he has survived as a rookie at the end of the first round with 3 points and defense.
At the beginning of this year's season, the Nuggets opened a contract worth $43 million to renew in advance. It is not difficult to see from this price, Afflaro's position in George Karl's heart.
So far this season, there are only 4 players who can reach 50+40+85 in shooting, three-pointers and free throws~EbookFREE.me~ They are Ray Allen, Nowitzki, Nash and Avra. Luo.
Link knows that his opponent today is not easy, and he is already mentally prepared to be targeted by the opponent's number one defensive gate.
However, when he contacted Afflalo, Link still felt that he thought of the Nuggets too simply.
Tough collisions, rough pulls, tight presses, and dark elbows from time to time...The Nuggets' roughness is beyond Link's expectations!
Afflalo doesn't mind dealing with each other in a rough way on the outside, he does everything except innocently hurting others.
There is no problem with fisting.
Under Afflalo's rough defense, Link didn't run out in the first round. In the end, Conley had to give the ball to Randolph. Randolph turned and missed the basket after the same rough defense of "Orc" Faried. The Nuggets' defense became the Grizzlies' first attack!
"Huh, a bunch of bastards!" Old Karl smiled jokingly, this is the real men's sport!
"Damn it!" When Link retired, he rubbed his elbow-red chest. Afflaro's thing was really not a fuel-efficient lamp. Although the reputation has not been big, the defense is really fierce. The offense in that round just now cost at least two or three rounds in the regular season.
Why is Afflalo's new nickname "Rattlesnake"? Because of the Nuggets fans and George Carr, at first they counted on him to contain "Black Mamba" Kobe. It's just that the Nuggets are now in contact with the Grizzlies, and the "Rattlesnake" will have to attack Link first.
But after the strict defense just now, Link was not discouraged, but more excited.
Seeing Afflalo running over, Link lifted his trouser legs and patted the floor!
Tu snake, he likes it the most.
