Three Hundred and Eighty-Two: Foreign Language Wizard Link

Bogut was very proud of his defense in the first round. Mark Jackson wanted to change the Warriors' defense, and Bogut was undoubtedly the most important part of it. But last season, Bogut came to the Bay Area with a season-ending injury. To put it bluntly, I didn't play a game after arriving in the Warriors.

Therefore, last season's trade has little impact on the Warriors.

But this year, when Bogut returned, Mark Jackson believed the Australian could take the Warriors' defense a step further.

Judging from the first game and the round just now, Bogut really did it.

6-0, Mark Jackson couldn't think of a better start. Trading away Ellis is not only for Bogut, but also for Curry and Thompson.

Jackson loves Curry and Thompson very much. He firmly believes that Curry is a core player, and he once praised Clay as the greatest shooter in history.

Next, if the Grizzlies don't score again. Mark Jackson believed that the rookie coach on the opposite side should call a timeout.

After losing so badly last year, this year I suddenly experienced the feeling of being able to suppress the opponent, which is really cool!

Facing the Warriors' defense again, Link became more cautious. Stevens is right, he is being targeted everywhere now. With Bogut's lateral speed, it was impossible for him to rush back to the restricted area so quickly. It can be seen that Australians have been staring at themselves for a long time.

Link tried to stay calm, the more anxious he was to score, the more he fell into Bogut's trick. Why did Bogut talk trash just now? Isn't it just to stimulate Link.

So this time, after taking the ball, Link didn't break through or call a screen, but leaned on his back, as if he wanted to single-handedly hit Barnes.

But no one noticed that Mike Conley had already borrowed Randolph's off-ball screen and ran beyond the three-point line. Conley has never been a scorer, so the Warriors' defense against him is not very tight. The Warriors' attention was all on Link, and it wasn't until Conley received the ball and was open that Mark Jackson found out that Curry had missed someone!

It's not that Curry has to work hard to defend, but his body is indeed too thin. After being blocked by Randolph, he was thrown away directly, unable to squeeze out.

Conley broke the fire from the top of the arc outside the three-point line! Mark Jackson thought his defense was successful. In his opinion, as long as Link was not allowed to open, the Grizzlies and the rest of the team would not be able to kill the game.

However, Conley's 3-pointer went hollow, leaving Curry covering his head in chagrin.

Except for his rookie season, a guard who shoots more than 36% of his three-pointers every year can't just let it go!

"It's okay, continue to defend according to the original plan!" Mark Jackson was also a little angry, but still wanted to bet on Link. The offense of the rest of the Grizzlies may not necessarily be better than Curry and Thompson.

Link Xi mentioned an assist, but his ears were still not quiet.

"What? Started to hide? Aren't you going to dunk on my head? No way!" Bogut continued to chatter in Link's ear, this guy really has a big mouth.

Fortunately, Link was already mentally prepared, so he was still not very angry. Now the score has become 3 to 6, he should be happy.

In the next round, the Warriors were still playing Curry's pick-and-roll tactics with the ball. This time, Conley and Gasol switched defenses directly after encountering a pick-and-roll, and Gasol delayed Curry.

Seeing this situation, Curry made a direct breakthrough, talking about speed in a small way, Curry can beat Gasol by a few blocks.

With the determination to save his career, Curry successfully wiped Gasol and went straight to the basket. But just when Curry was about to make a layup, the difficult No. 0 appeared!

"Damn!" Curry didn't expect Link to be so active in defending. He just looked at his teammates during the march. Link was still by Barnes' side at that time. Otherwise, Curry would have already split the ball.

But after he rushed in, Link also "teleported" from Barnes.

Facing the blocking of Link's long arm, Curry had to hastily throw the board high.

High throws and layups, this is Curry's secret to score in the penalty area with his thin body.

This kind of layup is extremely difficult to be blocked, and it can also minimize the disadvantage of physical confrontation. When Link's rookie season was not strong enough to fight, he also liked to use this trick.

But this trick is not a panacea, because it is a high-throw board, so the requirements for hand feel and accuracy are extremely high. In terms of feel, Curry is definitely fine, but with Link's sudden interference, the accuracy of Curry's ball is not interesting.

In the end, the basketball knocked out of the frame, and Link used his enthusiasm to thwart Curry's small chance to play big!

Taking advantage of the Warriors' defense before retreating, Link passed the ball to Iguodala who was already plugged in before landing when he jumped up to grab the rebound!

Iguodala has strong athletic ability and is definitely a sharp knife in transition offense! And compared to Tony Allen, Iguodala's offensive stability is better.

The strong Iguodala ran all the way after receiving the pass, leaning on Thompson to the basket and made a tough layup! Anyway, he used to be the head forward of the 76ers, and Iguodala played this kind of ball with ease!

"Fuck!" Mark Jackson looked at the score, 5 to 6. In an instant, the Grizzlies were only 1 point behind!

And during this period, Link didn't score a single point. He used his passing, defense and rebounding to help the team recover the score. Mark Jackson couldn't help but began to doubt his own strategy. Is it really okay to let the Grizzlies attack?

"Link's passing is too accurate. When he was still grabbing rebounds, he had already drawn up the passing route in his mind. It is indeed the only player in the league who averaged 20+5 points per game except for LeBron last season." A player with +5 stats. There is only 1 point left, let's see what the Warriors will do next!"

After calming down, the local commentator in the Bay Area also found that the situation was actually not that optimistic. The Clippers chased for so long in the last game, but they didn't close the gap. Why? Because the Grizzlies are stable!

No matter how the opponent plays, the Grizzlies will follow the plan one by one. These few balls, the Warriors began to be unstable, so the Grizzlies seized the opportunity to approach the score.

The Warriors will have to work harder to beat a Western Conference Finals-level team.

Link is still conscientiously guarding in front of Barnes, he is not impatient because he has not scored a point so far. It's useless to just take statistics. In the future, Westbrook will average a triple-double per game, and won't be sprayed by fans.

Data + victory is the embodiment of the star's ability. And in Link's view, victory is even greater than statistics.

Barnes was also depressed. In his last NBA debut, he only scored 6 points. For a rookie with 6 points in a single game, does Link need to be so strict?

This time, Curry was stalked by Conley, and Thompson was tortured to death by Iguodala. Seeing the Warriors' offense stalled, Curry handed the ball to David Lee in time.

As a former All-Star forward, David Lee is famous for his gorgeous offense. After Ellis left last season, David Lee, who averaged 20.1 points per game, was the Warriors' first scoring point.

But this time, before David Lee could hold the ball securely, his former teammate Zach Randolph took the ball away!

When David Lee was with the Knicks, he was just Randolph's younger brother. At that time, Randolph was a jerk, and David Lee didn't dare to talk to him.

Both sides have changed a lot now, and David Lee also thinks he is no worse than Randolph.

But Randolph grinned, showing his white teeth, "Ginger is still hot!"

Although David Lee fumbled the ball, the Warriors did not completely lose possession. David Lee bent down desperately and patted the out-of-control basketball into the hands of Harrison Barnes.

At this point, the 24-second shot clock is running out. Barnes' only option was to shoot, and he did.

But the moment Barnes shot, Link rushed over from the side, straightened his arms, and slapped the basketball that Barnes had just thrown out!

Not to mention how frustrated Barnes was, his first chance to score in this game was gone!

"It's Link again! After defending Curry just now, this time he arrived in time to block Barnes' shot. Link knew that Barnes would rush to shoot when he ran out of time. He put the rookie Eat to death!"

After Link landed, he patted Barnes on the shoulder, "Welcome to the NBA, man."

Damn, finally said this sentence!

The basketball is out of bounds, and the ball still belongs to the Warriors. But the offensive time left for the Warriors is only 1.4 seconds.

The Warriors sent the ball from the sideline, but facing the tight defense of the Grizzlies, David Lee couldn't pass the ball for a while. In the end, he had to pass the ball to Curry in a hurry before the violation.

Curry is ready to catch the ball, but Conley, who is accurate and extremely positive, "takes love with a knife" and successfully steals it!

"Conley stole the ball, did the Grizzlies fight back!?"

Conley staggered a little because he rushed too hard just now. If you don't play the ball, you will fall down with the ball.

Therefore, Conley passed the ball at the moment of stealing the ball. This time, it was Link who received the ball, and he was always in the right position at the right time!

Link ran all the way with the ball, and the Warriors players were surprised to find that Link's speed seemed to be much faster than last season!

Barnes worked hard to block, hoping to avenge his shame. But Link made a smooth back turn during the march and passed Barnes!

"Superb skills! Not all small forwards in the league have this kind of dribbling skills!"

The local commentators in the Bay Area were fascinated, and they even praised Link.

Although Barnes was passed, he was not without contributions. At least, he forcibly slowed down Link's breakthrough speed. While Link and Barnes were entangled, Bogut had dragged his heavy body back to the penalty area.

Now, Bogut and Link are neck-and-neck, both heading for the rim. Bogut believes that his defense at the beginning of the game should be enough to deter Link.

However, the fact is that Link directly ignored Bogut and jumped up to dunk!

Bogut followed suit, but athleticism has never been Bogut's strong suit. In terms of bounce and bullet speed, he is much worse than Link.

Bogut is indeed a defensive champion, but that is only limited to positional defense. Once the attacker rushes up, Bogut's weakness will be infinitely magnified. He may be one of the few centers in the league whose dunks can be turned into highlights.

Link overwhelmed Bogut and slammed the ball into the basket with his right hand. After the dunk, Link, who spread his legs, inadvertently showed a posture of riding on Bogut.

The Australian quit and gave Link a shove while he was still hanging on the frame!

Link landed on the ground, and the referee immediately blew his whistle to stop the game!

After landing, Link was not afraid of the vicious Bogut, but smiled and said to him, "Spitthedummy, baby!"

"You fucking say it again!" Unexpectedly, after hearing this sentence, Bogut became even more angry, and rushed forward to punch Link.

What about Link? He didn't dodge, and still had a smile on his face. So, let Bogut push himself. The scene was out of control in an instant, and the players and referees on both sides were twisted together.

Well now, the conflict has escalated, and Link believes that Bogut should eat T.

"Dummy" in Australian English is also "pacifier" in American English, meaning a pacifier. So the phrase "spitthedummy" is very vivid, referring to "children spit out the pacifier when they feel frustrated and angry". In Australian English, it is a very humiliating insult.

Translated into Chinese, it would probably be, "You little brat while breastfeeding."

But there is no way, the referee couldn't understand what Link said, only knew that Bogut pushed Link. Therefore, Bogut was punished alone!

Seeing how angry Bogut was when he was dunked, scolded and ate a T, Link felt extremely relieved. Now, Bogut should know who is the boss!

Sure enough, watching the Australian English tutorial before the game is still useful. This time, Link didn't suffer from culture.

It is said that you must be fully prepared before the start of the game, and learning the trash talk of other countries is also part of preparing for the game.

"Damn, what did you mutter just now? To make him so angry?" Randolph also hurried to Link to "learn lessons" after seeing Bogut eating T.

"Want to know? I sold you the video of my Australian English tutorial for only $500!"

"Damn, you shameless rogue!"

"It's not you, the old rascal, who taught me!"

Stevens shook his head off the court. Usually, he doesn't advocate using this method to provoke opponents.

But Bogut's disturbance did indeed affect the morale and rhythm of the Warriors.

Next, the game is about to enter the control of the Grizzlies.
