1028: The Most Underrated Duo

Derek Rose was blocked by Wade, and Anthony was blocked by Link.

These two scenes are enough to keep the Knicks fans on the scene quiet for a while.

The more excited and happy Knicks fans were just now, they were hit hard at this time.

Originally, Knicks fans were full of desire for this season, and Rose's beautiful layup just now made the Knicks fans' expectations infinitely increase.

As a result, their expectations were dashed not long after.

Will the Grizzlies surrender? Obviously not!

They came to Madison Square Garden not to foil this brand new Knicks!

After Link scored, the Knicks were ready to reorganize the offense.

Ross slowed down his pace and was no longer as radical as the previous two rounds.

He knew that he could not fly as he wanted as he wanted in the sky as he was in his prime.

And Wade is not as unbearable as everyone thinks.

Wade was guarding near the center line, and he was responsible for defending Rose today.

For a breakthrough player like Ross, he needs a breakthrough player like Wade to defend the best.

As for Conley, he will defend Contney Lee's unball-like judgments will be more accurate.

Many people think that Wade is not good this season, mainly because Wade's attack power has declined significantly compared to before.

As a defender, Wade only hit a career-low 7 three-pointers last season, which seems very incredible now.

You know, Porzingis, a big man with a height of 2.21 meters, made 81 three-pointers last season. As a defender, Wade is less than a fraction of his own.

When three-pointers are not good, his ability to break through and end still regresses with age, which is why many people are not optimistic about Wade's prospects for the Grizzlies.

But most people only focus on the offensive end, but ignore Wade's role in the defensive end.

Conley + Wade + Link, the outside defensive lineup composed of these three people is enough to make the outside of all teams in the league ashamed.

Ross was pestered by Wade as soon as he passed half.

"I sincerely hope that you can get back to form, Derek. But not today!" While defending, Wade also spitted out trash talk.

Under Wade's entanglement, Rose handed the ball to Anthony.

If it were two or three years ago, Anthony would definitely have played singles.

But today, Anthony knew that it would be difficult to win the game if he insisted on fighting Link alone.

He has to tie everyone together to make this new Knicks lineup work.

So, Anthony waited outside the three-point line like a point guard for his teammates to run tactics.

Porzingis scored from the basket and walked to the top of the three-point line. Anthony made a timely pass to the ground and sent the ball to Porzingis.

Porzingis shot when he got the ball, and Harris was slowing down half a beat when he rushed forward. Coupled with the height difference between the two sides, Porzingis was almost completely disturbed.

In this way, Porzingis' three-pointer from the top of the arc entered the net, and the New York Knicks once again overtook it!

Madison Square Garden became lively again. Yes, in addition to Derek Rose, we also have a super genius!

"Damn it, mine!" Harris raised his hand apologetically. Porzingis did not look like a person over 2.20 meters tall in terms of speed and shooting fluency.

"It's okay, he won't keep scoring goals, as long as you keep fighting him." Link smiled at Harris, not blaming him too much.

Porzingis is indeed a genius, but he is just a second-grade devil.

Just because of him, I want to stop Link and Wade, two people who hold five championship rings?

Too tender!

"Link, give me cover!" Wade shouted at Link while running up to participate in the attack.

Link understood it and immediately stepped forward to cover it after Wade received the basketball.

"Link is actually covering Wade, which we didn't expect. It seems that Link did not regard Wade as his deputy, and he is even willing to take the initiative to create opportunities for Wade."

As soon as Mike Bryn finished speaking, Wade used Link's cover to break into the penalty area.

Ross failed to bypass Link as soon as possible, so Anthony had to switch defenses to his old friend.

Anthony's pace was indeed not fast enough. After three or two steps, Wade surpassed Anthony by half a position.

But Anthony has a height advantage, and he covers Wade's side and blocks his attack space.

Just as Wade broke through to the basket, the "Flash" suddenly threw the ball high.

Anthony also jumped up, but found that the arc of the basketball was too high. Flying in such a arc, the basketball could not enter the basket at all. Wade would not have been so tilted on the ball.

Could it be...

Anthony, who suddenly realized, opened his eyes widened in an instant, and at this time, Link, who had jumped high, received the basketball thrown by Wade behind Anthony.

Ross is now unable to compete for the high-altitude ball with Link. He can only watch Link easily catch the basketball in the air and then stretch the ball into the frame!

"Bang!"

A beautiful aerial relay dunk made the just-lit fire in Madison Square Garden extinguish again!

"Lin Wei is connected! Hahahaha, this is the scene of how many Memphis fans are thinking about it day and night! Now, Link and Wade have turned it into reality! It turns out that from the beginning, Wade is creating opportunities for Link!"

The all-in-one connection between Wade and Link made many Knicks fans almost applaud it.

Wade moved his classic cooperation with James to the Grizzlies intact.

But the person who is receiving Wade's pass now is even stronger than the previous No. 6!

Link smiled and reached out and brimmed with Wade.

The Knicks have always been fighting very seriously and are in a desperate situation to fight the Grizzlies.

But what about the Grizzlies? It is not difficult to see from Link's condition that he has been very relaxed.

When the Knicks were fighting against the Grizzlies desperately for a victory, Link seemed to just use this game as a warm-up...

Perhaps from the beginning, Link never thought about other results other than winning, just to see how to win.

As Link said, the Knicks lacked enough respect for the championship members.

They thought too simple about Link and Wade's duo.

Anthony finally took action, but unlike Ross and Porzingis, Anthony missed the first shot today.

Anthony is in the right middle distance position and faces Link single-handedly.

Now Anthony's goal is not based on explosive breakthroughs or forced rushing, but more on shooting skills.

His sudden pull after three threats, or his turnover jump shots in his back-on state are all killer moves.

Most people can't control the pace of Anthony's three threats at all. As long as they sway, even if they are just a moment, Anthony can seize the gap and make a shot!

But Link is different. Anthony found that his three threats seemed to be completely unconfused in front of Link!

Link blocked every step very well, giving Anthony no room to start.

There was no way, and Anthony could only pull out without shaking Link away.

The result is obvious, Link's reaction to light speed made him reach out to Anthony's eyes as soon as possible.

Although Anthony did not eat like Rose, the basketball was outrageous and hit the side of the basket, almost for no reason.

The scoring champion of New York City also seemed very powerless in front of Link.

Gasol protected the rebound and the Grizzlies launched an offensive again!

Link was actively going to basketball this time, leaning against Anthony and breaking through to the penalty area.

There is no doubt that the Knicks' defense began to shrink instantly. Around Link were all Knicks players wearing white jerseys at home.

Why are there only five defensive players around Link? Because there are only five people in basketball games!

Naturally, Link did not stand against the Knicks' encirclement, that was not his style.

Link calmly divided the ball from the crowd and handed it to Wade!

Ross did not pounce on him immediately, but instead intentionally lured Wade to take action.

A defender who only scored 7 three-pointers in a single season, who will he let him go if he doesn't let him go?

If Wade forces the ball to other more threatening people, it will be more difficult to deal with.

Wade did hesitate for a moment, but when he saw Ross actually put himself in the spotlight, he became bold.

Seeing Wade taking action in an open space, Link smiled and turned around, raised his right hand directly, and made three fingers.

He is celebrating the goal in advance!

In the just-concluded pre-season training camp, Wade trained his three-pointers hard.

Obviously, a player of Wade's age and full of injuries cannot make progress as obvious as Dinwiddie and others.

His three-pointers are still not stable enough, and he is far from being a shooter.

But at least compared to last season, Wade's three-point form is much better.

This three-point vacant position without interference is no different from giving away points for Wade!

Sure enough, as soon as Link raised his right hand, he heard a "brush" sound coming from behind. Immediately afterwards, the sighs of the Knicks fans.

"The ball went in, Dwayne Wade, he hit a steadily shot outside the three-point line! For two consecutive rounds, the Grizzlies' goals came from the connection between Link and Wade. Wade and Link were very tacit. I think they may be the most underrated duo this season, no one!"

From blocking to continuously cooperating with goals, Wade and Link's bombardment made the confident Knicks fans start to feel fear.

Jeff Hornersek called to stop the game, and he knew that if he continued to let go, the Grizzlies would be able to quickly widen the gap.

After the game was paused, Wade walked towards Link, hammered his new partner's chest, and then the two slowly walked off the court together.

"Well passed on, Link."

"You're really excited today, Dwyne."

"Of course, I think now, Knicks fans and Phil Jackson should know what respect means!" Wade smiled, his cheeks round.

"Well, but you're still more restrained. Today, I'm going to fight the Knicks, mainly to focus on education. At least, I'll leave some opportunities for young people."

"Well, don't worry, I know it."

After saying that, the two of them laughed and enjoyed it.

Dave Jogel covered his forehead speechlessly after hearing the conversation between Link and Wade.

What is it like to be a team with two tyrants at the same time?
