A few days ago, the media also made the Grizzlies' double MVP lineup amazing.

But seeing Rose start alone without Link, few people are optimistic about Rose's performance today.

Ross has indeed recovered very well in the past two years, but people think that at best it is a normal rotation level.

This guy who is ready to retire can stand on the court again, which is already amazing.

To win with Rose? That's a fantasy.

The Grizzlies' strategy of starting Ross did not cause much trouble. People think that this game still depends on what Gobert and Jokic will play.

As the game officially began, Gobert easily took the first attack from Jokic.

I have to say that in terms of bounce, Jokic really grasped the height tightly and couldn't jump out even if he was one centimeter tall.

Donovan Mitchell got the basketball and stabbed directly under the basket.

Mitchell is not easy to mess with this season. He was selected at the 13th pick in 2017 and now he averages 24.2 points per game.

For comparison, the shooting guard who was also selected in the 13th pick in 1996 had not even averaged 20 points in the third grade.

Mitchell's strength cannot be underestimated, and he is also very excited today.

With Link not here, Mitchell naturally wanted to stage a "make a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace".

Mitchell's attack was very sudden and broke into the penalty area before the Grizzlies' defensive lineup was formed.

Jamie Green quickly chased after him, but Mitchell used a beautiful layup in the air to avoid Green's block.

Mitchell scored easily, and as soon as he came up, the Jazz meant to control the game.

"The Utah Jazz won't let the Grizzlies go easily today. Mitchell is waiting for the opportunity when Link is not here. Today, no one can suppress him. This is a rare opportunity for Mitchell to release his heart's content at the Federal Express Arena."

Although the score is only 2-0, the Jazz's state shows that Grizzlies fans are a little worried.

Relying on the Jazz to win the game with a bad shape? It seems that nothing is so good.

After Mitchell scored, the camera gave Link a close-up.

But people imagined that Link frowning did not appear, but saw Link chatting with Carter beside him, talking and laughing.

Maybe these two guys are talking about going fishing together after retirement...

In short, Link didn't care about the goal he just lost.

Mitchell also looked up at the close-up of Link's face on the big screen on the scene. The No. 45 defender clenched his fists.

He wants to see how long Link can hold him like this!

Although Link said that "even if I'm not in the Grizzlies" is not aimed at the Jazz, it will somewhat make the Jazz players a little unhappy.

The young and energetic Mitchell is one of them.

The last time Link was present, the Jazz won, but this time Link was still so rampant.

Mitchell must let the first person in the league see his strength. He wants Link to know that he is not an ant either.

At this time, Ross had slowly controlled the ball and leaned towards the Jazz's halftime.

Ross did not control the ball more, but quickly handed the ball to Jokic, who was facing away from the basket at mid-range.

The moment Jokic got the basketball, Gobert immediately put it on, raised his arm and covered Jokic's head.

"Sure enough, Jokic is the core of the offensive of the Grizzlies today!" Kevin Harlan rubbed his hands. Now it is difficult to see such a traditional fifth-position duel in this league.

However, just when everyone thought Jokic would use various old man actions to challenge Gobert's defense, Jokic casually passed the ball behind his back.

Rose, who cut in from the right side of the three-point line, received the pass and then made a layup easily.

2 to 2, the Grizzlies didn't let the Jazz get any advantage!

"The ball entered, Jokic's pass was as exciting as ever. But... Ross' cutting speed was very fast, and Mudie had no way to do him!"

Kevin Harlan was a little surprised. The cooperation just now was a replica of the connection between Jokic and Link!

The Grizzlies won't really treat Rose as Link today, right?

Seeing Rose scored, Link, who was still chatting with Carter, stood up and applauded Rose's goal exaggeratedly.

Mudie was confused. Ross' speed just now...a bit fast!

Mitchell was a little helpless. The Jazz left Rubio this summer, which made their No. 1 position very empty.

Originally, the Jazz wanted to chase Conley, but the Grizzlies did not give up their meritorious point guard.

Therefore, the Jazz had to bite the bullet this year and let Mudier play the starting lineup first, and then seek trade to strengthen the No. 1 position in the middle of the season.

Mitchell decided to watch a few more rounds. If Mudie could not contain Ross, he would go to defend that guy himself!

In the second leg, Mudiat broke through and passed the ball to assist Bogdanovic in a three-pointer to help the Jazz lead again.

The last time the two sides met, Bogdanovic, the sharpshooter's three-pointer, caused too much trouble for the Grizzlies.

It seems that today, his three-pointer feels hot.

Iguodala was never the one who could defend James alone. He reacted very promptly, but his legs and feet failed to catch up with Mitchell's pass.

Iguodala's interference was eventually slowed down, resulting in Bogdanovic's goal.

As of now, the Jazz's offensive is still full of oppression, and they do not intend to leave any chance to breathe.

This is three points behind, and the Grizzlies are not so easy to tie the score.

Ross calmly picked up the basketball on the ground and handed it over to Jay Michael Green, who was preparing to serve the bottom line.

He reorganized the attack with his eyes firm, as if nothing had happened just now.

Ross glanced at Mudier, who saw only fear and tension in the child.

Ten years ago, who didn't look at Rose with such eyes?

Before Rose could wave to him, Jamie Green, who had run up from behind, took the initiative to set up cover for him.

Grizzlies No. 1 took advantage of the cover and walked to the right side of the court, but the speed was not fast. He did not seem to want to end the attack by himself, but wanted to organize the attack.

Seeing this, Mudie slowed down his pace - he made a fatal mistake.

Seeing that Mudiere slowed down his speed, Ross, who was originally slowly slowing down, suddenly accelerated again!

Mudier had no time to react, and was left behind by a change of rhythm by Ross.

In the previous few seasons, Ross was always deliberately changing his playing style and positioning.

He tried to be a ball-less shooter and tried to adapt to this era.

But in the end he discovered that what he was best at was himself.

So this season, he will still hit the basket and use throws and breakthroughs to solve the problem. You can still see Ross' breakthrough without slowing down, and you can see him twisting his body in the air and sending assists.

Or, like you did just now, use an emergency stop and get up and throw your opponent away from you.

Mudier thought Ross would not dare to hit the basket, and he was outrageously wrong.

Ross entered the basket, but Gobert did not dare to act rashly. He did not dare to leave Jokic at mid- and long distances.

If Jokic feels open, then that guy can even throw the ball without jumping.

I really dare not let it go!

Therefore, the Jazz only rely on forward Reus O'Neal, who is only 1.98 meters tall, to block the block.

But as a undrafted pick, Reus O'Neal is really talented.

Although he is a defensive wing, his frame protection ability is not outstanding. This guy is not very high and cannot easily complete the blocking.

So in the air, Ross fought against Reus O'Neal without fear.

Ross withstood O'Neal's impact and gently threw the ball to the rebound.

Grizzlies No. 1 fell out of the bottom line, and at the same time, the referee whistle sounded and basketball entered the net.

Derek Ross used his sharp breakthrough to get a chance to score a three-pointer!

At that moment, Link instantly became the "Sa Jishi" of the Lakers back then, and waved his towel frantically on the sidelines.

Don't underestimate mvp!

Ross stood up with the help of his teammates and stood on the free throw line.

He was still expressionless and very calm.

He doesn't care about the media's slandering him before, nor does he care about the cheers of the fans at the scene.

All he knew was that Link was not there yesterday and he messed up the last ball.

So today, I will do my best to make up for it.

When the Most Valuable Player is gone, the Super Sixth Man can occasionally replace the Most Valuable Player.

Rose, with long hair, took the ball and made a steadily penalty, scored a three-pointer, and the score was equalized again!

Mitchell curled his lips, disappointing.

So he signaled to Mudie, and switch defense in the next round!

He wants to kill the magic of this veteran with his own hands.

Link looked at Rose's condition and was very happy.

To be honest, Ross is in a better state today than he thought.

At this time, Link suddenly remembered something about Rose.

Last season at the Timberwolves, Rose's resume and original history were somewhat different.

Will that "bias" be grafted to the grizzly bear?
Chapter completed!
