Pierce scored only 4 points in the first quarter, one less than Link. Since scoring a goal on Link's head at the beginning of the game, he has not scored any sports game. Link's defense has put a lot of pressure on Pierce, which Pierce had never expected.

Before the game, he knew very well that this undraft was not a good match, but he didn't expect his defense to be so rough. He thought Link had 70 points in defense, but Link scored 90 points today.

I have to say that this really subverts his impression of Asian players.

Having said that, Link's performance in the first quarter made Pierce vaguely remember the fact that O'Neal was overturned by an Asian giant with one hand. Well, maybe not all Asian players are as elegant as Yao Ming.

"I need you to run the ball and don't be personal heroism! Our defense was very good in the first quarter, and we improved offensive efficiency in the second quarter on the basis of maintaining defensive efficiency! Go on the court, I know you are ready!"

Rivers shouted in his duckling voice, but the Celtic players could guess at all. This guy is a typical "chicken soup coach". It is not that Rivers has poor tactics. Instead, he is better at mobilizing players' emotions than tactics.

The second quarter started like this. The Celtics did not make too many tactical adjustments, while the Grizzlies silently focused their offense on Conley and Link.

The collaboration between these two guys once made the Knicks, who owned Anthony, suffer a defeat, and Hollins hopes that the same thing will happen again today in the Celtics.

As soon as the second quarter started, Hollins discovered that the Celtics had changed their team. Serbian Kostic did not continue, and replaced Glen Davis, who was fatter than Randolph.

"Big Baby" Davis' average score per game this season reached a career-high 12.1 points. His mid-range shots are gradually mature, and his tenacious style always allows him to get opportunities in the inside.

Now, Garnett plays the fifth position and Davis plays the fourth position. There is no doubt that this is an adjustment to strengthen the inside defense. After just 12 minutes of fighting, Rivers has long seen that the Grizzlies' strategy is to focus on the inside.

Seeing the "big baby" appear, Hollins was so happy. Rivers would never have expected that the Grizzlies had changed their strategy. Davis is indeed good at defending the inside, but it would be quite difficult if he had to assist in defending the outside.

"Why is that guy fatter than you?" Link kept looking at Davis after he came on the court. The NBA jerseys at this period were not as tight as they were, and they were relatively loose. But even so, Davis still wore the tights. The muscle lines on Davis' thick arms were obvious, but the slightly raised belly was a little hard to describe.

"How did I know? I heard that guy loves fried chicken and so on. Am I very fat!?"

"The opponent attacks Zach, stay focused!" Link avoids Randolph's question and the fight continues to begin!

This time, Garnett played pick-and-roll cooperation with Rondo as soon as he came up. It seems that the Celtics hoped that the offense would become more diversified. To put it bluntly, I hope that Rondo could attack several times to disrupt the Grizzlies' defensive strategy.

Although Rondo has good scoring, he is not completely unable to score. After the breakthrough, Rondo's finishing rate at the basket is above the level. His fake layup after the breakthrough has also become one of the classic NBA moves. This guy is just a mid-range shot, but as long as he can hit the basket, there is still a certain threat to score.

Rondo, who had borrowed Garnett's cover, went straight to the inside line. Conley was delayed by Garnett this time and failed to keep up in time. Randolph, who had switched to Rondo's defense, was naturally not as quick as him, and he did not keep up for a while.

In this way, with a simple pick-and-roll, the Celtics won the first point of the second game in Rondo's layup and tied the score!

Rivers applauded happily. Once Rondo starts to threaten scoring, the more pass opportunities he can get. As long as Rondo can find gaps everywhere, it will be difficult for the Celtics' offense to be unefficient. After all, in addition to Rondo, the Celtics' lineup now, there are shooting abilities in the Celtics' lineup.

After scoring the goal, Rondo's data today became 2 points, 3 assists and 3 rebounds. Rivers even wondered if Rondo could get a triple-double today.

"It's too fast, like a loach!" Randolph complained, and it was indeed a bit embarrassing to let the big black bear chase the defender.

"It's okay Zach, that guy is not a scorer." Link ran to the frontcourt excitedly, and finally arrived at the Grizzlies' offensive round!

Glen Davis made full preparations, and this guy was eager to compete with Randolph. Don't be confused by Davis' fat appearance. In fact, this guy is not a good guy to mess with, he is definitely a bastard.

But this time, when the Celtics set up their stance, they found that the Grizzlies did not continue to feed the ball to the inside. Moreover, Randolph and Gasol Jr. did not continue to be in the inside, but actively provided cover for the outside players!

"Conley handed the ball to Link, and Link and Gasol Jr. seem to be playing a pick-and-roll! Did the Grizzlies replace Link to the main attack??" Mike Brynn keenly discovered the changes of the Grizzlies.

"Stop kidding!" Pierce quickly bypassed Gasol's cover and let a loser attack on his head? The Grizzlies are probably too confident!

However, when Pierce hit Link again, Link did not shoot, but suddenly passed the ball!

On the right corner, Mike Conley arrived and caught the ball and shot! Rondo? That guy has been delayed by Randolph's unball cover and is now rushing to Conley!

How could Conley waste such an opportunity? He completed the shot before Rondo caught up. This was almost an open three-pointer. Conley's three-pointer was not very accurate, but his 36.9% shooting percentage was above the level.

When Rondo caught up, the three-pointers shot by Conley had already flew into the air. "Big Baby" Davis and Garnett immediately got stuck in the position and were ready to compete for rebounds!

But these two guys did not do it because the basketball shot by Conley was directly hollowed out into the net! The three-pointer hit, and the Grizzlies once again overtook the score!

"Link's passing vision is really wide. To be honest, I thought he was going to fight Pierce alone! But his sudden pass accurately found Conley. Link's pass just now was as accurate as a point guard! This was a cooperation between the outside and the outside. The Grizzlies seemed to have changed their offensive strategy. They no longer rely on Randolph to attack the low post!"

Rivers stood up. The Grizzlies' offense just now was indeed a bit unexpected. But he had no way to conclude with one attack that the Grizzlies had changed their strategy. There are always many coincidences in competitive sports games. Who knows whether the Grizzlies' offense was a coincidence?

The Grizzlies changed their strategy and scored a goal, while the Celtics still planned to rely on Rondo's score to disrupt the Grizzlies' defense. But how could the Grizzlies' defense be distracted because of an organizational defender who just exceeded 10 per game?

After just one shot, Conley became smarter this time. When Rondo and Garnett were pick-and-roll, Conley took two steps directly! He would rather make Rondo shoot than let him break through!

So after the pick-and-roll, an embarrassing scene appeared. Conley and Randolph both retracted back to the penalty area, leaving Rondo alone at the free throw line, without anyone watching

Before coming through, Link often saw a picture of Rondo online, which was an embarrassing scene in which Rondo was alone in the three-point line in the game between the Celtics and the Heat, and was left alone within two meters of the surrounding area. Now the Grizzlies' defensive formation is similar to that picture.

Seeing Rondo being completely ignored on the outside, Link felt embarrassed for him. Rondo simply jumped from the middle distance, but unfortunately, this goal was not as hollow as Conley's three-pointer just now, and Rondo missed the shot!

Conley's strategy worked!

"The Grizzlies' defense is very smart. They will not be fooled after only one loss. Let Rondo jump shot from mid-range, which is definitely not the result that Coach Rivers wants."

Garnett and Glen Davis are still actively accusing themselves of the inside, preparing to compete for offensive rebounds. But the Black and White Bears will not easily give up the rebound position. They stuck Garnett and Davis, and then Link rushed in and grabbed the rebound.

Link was thinking that if he had a center teammate named Steven, eight and Adams, it would probably be a problem to average double rebounds per game.

Link grabbed the rebound and controlled the ball and advanced, but as soon as he stepped on the midfield line, he suddenly made a long pass.

The live camera moved quickly with Link's pass, and then he found that Tony Allen had cut along the bottom line. The ball was very high, but it was definitely not a mistake. Because from the beginning, Link was like passing Tony Allen to an air relay!

While the Celtics player was still confused, Tony Allen jumped high, held the right basketball with one hand, and then completed the dunk with one hand!

When Tony Allen scored, two Celtic players did not retreat into the three-point line! The Grizzlies' offense was unprecedentedly rapid, and Link's all-access pass from the midfield made everyone amazed!

"The midfielder passes the empty call directly. God, this guy used to play point guard!"

Rivers was a little overwhelmed. The Grizzlies didn't hit the penalty area in these two attacks, but they were already 5 points ahead of the Celtics!

He looked up at the big screen on the scene. After these two rounds, Link's data has turned into 5 points, 4 assists and 3 rebounds.
Chapter completed!
