Three Hundred and Five: Maybe It Will Work

John Wall and Link, the encounter between these two people is known as the duel between the 10 strongest duo.

Wall attaches great importance to this game. Although the Wizards have not asked Wall to score, who wants to lose every day? Indeed, the Wizards have only won a poor 10 games so far. But Wall believes that as long as he works hard, it is not impossible to defeat the Grizzlies.

On the night of the game, Wall was the first player on the Wizards to warm up. It is not difficult to see from this that Wall attaches great importance to this game. Although Wall likes to spray, he also likes to do practical things. He not only speaks, but is also very willing to prove himself with actions.

"It seems that this game, between Link and No. 1 John Wall, will have a huge spark. The Grizzlies have recently been caught in rumors that the team is going to be sold. I don't know if this will affect The performance and the state of the players. But I know very well that Wall was in a good state today, and he will cause a lot of trouble for the Grizzlies."

Before the game started, Hubie Brown warned the Memphis fans. Don't think this match is safe.

Wall had already shot several sets of baskets before the Grizzlies players came on the court. When Link saw Wall was already on the training field, he was very surprised. It's really uncommon for visiting players to warm up earlier than home players.

When Wall saw Link, he stopped what he was doing, and the two looked at each other for a few seconds.

From Wall's eyes, Link saw full of malice. That guy was very bloodthirsty, as if he wanted to rely on this game to find the glory of being the No. 1 pick in the draft.

Link didn't continue to look at Wall, but started warming up honestly.

But, some people seem to be very kind on the surface, but secretly they are discussing with their teammates how to kill them...

Before the game started, Link took a special look at his teammates, and everyone nodded slightly.

Wall thought he was about to face a battle, but in Link's view, what was about to happen might be a massacre.

The game started quickly, and the Wizards' starting lineup looked much inferior to the Grizzlies.

Point guard Wall, shooting guard Jordan Crawford, No. 3 Nick Young, No. 4 Kevin Seraphim, and center Nee who just joined the Wizards.

It's normal for this set of starters to be uncompetitive in the league. Three of the starters are 10-time rookies. How big of a storm do you want them to make?

The referee blows his whistle, and Gasol wins the basketball over Nei Nei's head. The game officially started, and the Grizzlies embarked on their road to rectification.

The last upset loss to the Raptors put the Grizzlies under tremendous pressure from public opinion. Now, there are more and more trade rumors about the Grizzlies, and speculation about the team's next owner is as popular as the eight o'clock every day.

Link doesn't want to see this kind of thing that will affect the state of the team continue, so he wants to use a big victory to end it all!

Link's real opponents are those media that spread rumors!

So as soon as it came up, Link played very aggressively. After receiving Conley's pass, he sat on Nick Young with his back. Link didn't play tricks with Nick Young. He planned to play with his back!

Nick Young's mobility and physical condition actually have the potential to be a good defender. But there is no way, this guy has always been only interested in scoring, and his enthusiasm on the defensive end has never been high.

What's more, as an offensive perimeter lineman, Nick Young's defensive post-up skills are even worse. Link barely encountered any obstacles, advanced to the free throw line, and then easily turned over and shot a jumper.

Nick Young's reaction was half a beat slow. After the confrontation with Kobe, when he came back to fight Nick Young, Link felt that the difficulty dropped a lot in an instant.

"Swipe!" As soon as the game started, the wonderful "note" issued by the Nets tumbling gave the Wizards a blow! Nick Young's defense is so indescribable that he basically didn't put any pressure on Link.

Wall shook his head, if he could have a Tony Allen,

that would be nice......

Link played the first ball on purpose. After all, he hopes to lead by example. Use practical actions to motivate others.

In the next defensive round, the enthusiasm of the Grizzlies was fully revealed.

The thing Link discussed with everyone yesterday is actually very simple. I hope everyone will block Wall's passing route on the defensive end and prevent him from mobilizing the whole team's offense. Of course, for this reason, Link organized everyone to watch a lot of Wall's game videos and study his passing habits.

After all, the Grizzlies and the Wizards don't meet a few times a season, and the two sides are not familiar with each other. In this case, it is very necessary to study the video.

In his rookie season, he averaged 8+ assists per game. Wall's overall view and passing vision are terrible. But if you actively block the passing route, even Wall can't deliver the ball again and again.

Although Wall is fast, his offense is also very sharp. But in fact, he is a more traditional point guard. Wall's shooting has always been very ordinary. He made less than 30% of his three-pointers last season, and he didn't shoot directly this season. So far, I have only shot more than 20 three-pointers and only hit 2 goals...

Therefore, as long as Wall's breakthrough is contained and his passing route is cut off, Wall's power will be greatly reduced.

Forcing Wall to make several mistakes, Wall's mentality will naturally change. The more anxious he is then, the better it will be for the Grizzlies.

Wall walked beyond the three-point line and calmly controlled the ball. He still doesn't know that the Grizzlies have set a net for him, he just finds that the Grizzlies' defense seems to be very tight!

This kind of tightness does not mean that the defensive position is tight, but that everyone sticks to their own matchup so tightly that others can't run tactics at all!

Wall paused outside the three-point line, waiting for his teammates to move. But seven or eight seconds passed, and Nick Young and Jordan Crawford couldn't make room.

Nonsense, and don't look at who is defending them. How could Link and Tony Allen be thrown away so easily?

Seeing this situation, Wall had no choice but to call a pick-and-roll, and he wanted to attack the frame by himself!

Wall's greatest weapon is his speed. As long as he can't keep up with the first shot, you can basically only watch him make a successful layup.

That was the case this time. After taking cover, Wall slammed his calf on the ground, and his whole body seemed to be "catapulted" out!

Conley really couldn't keep up, but he didn't rush, but moved quietly in another direction.

Wall rushed into the penalty area very quickly, thinking that this would be an easy goal. As everyone knows, Gasol Jr. and Link also shrank to the basket, waiting to "catch birds".

Wall is not stupid. Seeing Link under the basket, he almost reflexively passed the ball to Nick Young. On the defensive end, his teammates may not be much help. But on the offensive end, Wall still trusts the guys around him very much.

Just when Wall thought he was about to get an assist, Mike Conley suddenly rushed in front of Nick Yang. Amidst the astonished expressions of all the Wizards players, he intercepted the ball midway and succeeded in stealing it!

"Hey, well done." Link smiled. Conley is indeed one of the representatives of high basketball IQ. Just talk about it yesterday, and Conley can understand it thoroughly today.

This is Link's plan. If Wall breaks through, someone must shrink to defend. After all, Wall's finishing rate at the basket is still very high. But if it shrinks, it will definitely leave a gap. Therefore, the plan of Link and everyone is to let the person who was left behind quickly make up for it.

In this way, Wall can not only prevent scoring, but also induce him to pass. It can be said that it is a double defensive trap!

So just after Conley was broken through, he directly approached Nick Young, and the steal was so easy.

The plans of the big villains are often very subtle. It's just that in movies, decency can always turn decay into magic.

But this is a basketball court, and there is no aura of the protagonist here.

"Wall made a mistake on the first pass. The Grizzlies' defensive skills are evident! Conley advances quickly, what will he do?"

Conley carried Wall, who was chasing back, into the penalty area, but after taking off, he sent the ball out of Wall's waist, and the goal was the right corner!

Wall hurriedly looked in that direction, but he didn't know if he didn't look at it, and he was frightened to death.

Link didn't know when he had ambushed there. At this time, he was unmarked in the bottom corner!

Nick Young? The guy was standing next to Wall, staring at Link with his signature black question mark face.

Conley's breakthrough just now attracted everyone in the Wizards to retreat, including Nick Young. Therefore, Link was just ignored.

Under Wall's desperate eyes, Link calmly made a three-pointer from the right corner. As the three-point leader this season, Link's three-pointers have been very stable, not to mention absolutely open.

After the post-up singles just now, Link scored again! This time, it's still a three-pointer! 5 to 0, the Grizzlies gave the Wizards a disarm as soon as they came up, allowing them to see the gap.

Wall already wanted to spit at Nick Young, but thought it was his teammate, so he held back.

Little did he know, Nick Young was the first to complain, "Be careful with the pass next time, John."

Wall: "???"

The villain should sue first!

Seeing the Wizards' loose defense and uncoordinated offense, Link secretly swung his fist. Maybe the massacre plan can really come true!
