255: Where is the upper limit?

On February 26, 2011, the second NBA competition day officially began.

After yesterday's opening game, the NBA successfully attracted the attention of countless fans. Now, it is estimated that those NBA players who play in CBA are extremely embarrassed. Because the CBA League stipulates that they must play a full season before they can return to the NBA and cannot buy out in the middle.

Fortunately, the Grizzlies did not have any players going overseas to hunt for gold, and the lineup was quite complete.

Unfortunately, before the regular season started, two main players were kneeling down

Since today is the first game of the Grizzlies this season, Hollins brought everyone to the court early to adapt to the venue. This is the first time that the Grizzlies players have played a formal game after half a year. Even old teammates must work well.

"Link, you have become much stronger. During the preseason, I think your ability to fight seems to be much stronger." Bathir started chatting with him while practicing one-on-one offense and defense with Link.

"Well, I've gained weight this summer, now 103 kilograms! Hehe, you don't have to come and pull me up in the future." Link said, pulling a jump shot in front of Bathir with a tentative shot.

"The attack is becoming more and more decisive, Link." Bathir nodded in admiration. Link's current level was much higher than the first time he saw Link.

If Battier had seen how Link and George beat Kobe, he wouldn't have been surprised by his goal just now.

Link looked down at his hands. His mid-range shot with slight interference was indeed more confident than before. The upgrade last night seemed to have made him much stronger.

Perhaps in the future, the mid-range emergency stop jump shot after the cross step will become your trump card!

"Shawn, I heard Miami is interested in you this summer. I'm glad you can stay in the end." Link talked, bringing the topic to Bathier.

"Hahahaha, people say going to Miami is a good opportunity to win the championship. But to be honest, I hope I can do something with the Grizzlies. Going to win a championship easily? Of course, it is also a good choice. However, I saw hope in the Grizzlies. Last year we reached the Western Conference Finals, and God knows what we can do in the future." After Bathier said that, he suddenly took action and slapped the basketball in Link's hand.

"Keep your focus at all times, Link."

"Damn, it's so cunning." Link shook his head, but then again, it's always good to have an old man around him.

After a simple warm-up, Hollins summoned all the players to the sidelines and he will make the final arrangement.

When playing against the Rockets, Hollins actually has no special arrangements, and the Grizzlies basically fight according to conventional tactics.

After all, the Rockets have no important reinforcement this summer. Because the operating time of this offseason is too short, most teams have not destroyed the core lineup. Cuban, who does not want to spend money, and Lakers, Clippers, and Hornets, who are rejected by the league, are purely exceptions.

The three most core arrow characters of the Rockets this year are still Lowry, Martin and Scola.

Of course, there is no need to say more about Martin and Scola. He has been famous for a long time. As for Lowry, his average of 13.5 points and 6.7 assists per game last season has made fans look forward to this young defender.

Speaking of which, Lowry was given to the Rockets by the Grizzlies. At that time, Rockets fans laughed at the Grizzlies as if they were crazy. As a result, the Rockets put Link to the Grizzlies again.

But even so, the Rockets' Arrowhead is not a first-line superstar. Martin's defense is destined to not go further, and Scola's scoring explosive power is not good. As for Lowry, he has not yet fully understood during the Rockets' period.

Therefore, Hollins is not worried that the Grizzlies will lose. His only concern is whether Vasquis can take on the responsibility of point guard. This is not only about this game, but about the victory or defeat of the Grizzlies in the last three games.

"Don't be nervous, man, it's no different from playing as a substitute. Stay calm and you can play your level as you should have, and you don't have to worry about anything." Before the game started, Randolph, the big brother, was patting the shoulders of the little brother, Vasquith.

Vasquis is a sophomore rookie like Link and has never played last season. Therefore, today is the first time the Venezuelans play as a game! Moreover, they are playing the highly anticipated opening game.

There is no doubt that this will definitely put a lot of pressure on Vasquith.

There is actually no problem with the ability of Vasquis. Link remembers that he faded out of the league in the future not because of his poor strength, but because of his serious injuries. Two years after the offseason, Vasquis limped even when walking, let alone running.

Therefore, he had to leave the league and seek a way to return to the NBA as a coach.

Another interesting thing about this guy Vasquis is that he was once famous for his poor defense in the same game and was raped twice.

Overall, there is nothing wrong with Vasquis. The only problem is that Vasquis is not fully physical yet, and the first time I'm going to fight

Link was unsure of what he could be like.

Since today is the first game of the new season, a magnificent appearance introduction ceremony was specially arranged today.

Under the mobilization of DJ on the scene, the scene was completely ignited before the competition began.

The Rockets players gritted their teeth and talked nonsense. They were so arrogant in the first game of the new season. How could they not be angry?

So after the game started, the Rockets were very active as soon as they started. Kyle Lowry pressed Vasquis close to him at the beginning, and he was quite interested in bullying this white defender.

In the inside, Scola tried his best to push Randolph outward and prevent him from taking the position easily. Gasol Jr. was directly surrounded by Jordan Hill. After all, Hill's height of 2.08 meters was too disadvantageous if he was too strong.

"The Houston Rockets don't want to give the Grizzlies a chance. They have played very positively since the first day of the new season."

At this time, Link and Guy came out to catch the ball at the same time. Vasquis passed the ball to Link like a conditioned reflex. After all, he passed the ball to Link more times last season's playoffs.

Link looked up and found that Kevin Martin, who was defending himself, was instantly excited. Now, Link can try his upgraded ball-holding attack!

"Martin defended Link alone, but the Rockets did not assist. After all, Guy's attack power cannot be underestimated. Let's see what Link will do this time." Hubby Brown was very excited because he could clearly see the changes in Link's muscle lines and strength.

It seems that in the past six months, Link has not been idle. He should try to make himself stronger. Brown wants to see how much progress Link has made.

Instead of relying on his body to force Martin, Link dribbled the ball alternately outside the three-point line, while observing the Rockets' defense.

Link suddenly slapped the basketball to the left, and after Martin changed his center of gravity, he immediately changed hands and direction!

"It's great!" Link changed hands very quickly, and his directional change speed was comparable to a defender!

But unfortunately, Link is not that good at the subsequent outbreak after the change of direction. Link is just relying on technology to go through it, but the highest level of breakthrough is the combination of technology, speed and body. Now that Link has technology, his body is barely enough, but he lacks speed.

This is also a major feature of Hill during this period that achieved extraordinary results through extremely simple and simple changes. From the "Jordan successor" who flew in the sky and escaped everything in people's impression, he became a veteran who survived in the league by relying on his skills and mind.

But even so, it is enough to get rid of Martin's direction change. Link's quick change of hand made Martin have no time to react. In the first game of the new season, Martin became an "atm machine" again embarrassingly.

After throwing away Martin, Link killed the penalty area. Scola came out to delay, but Link scored a light throw and successfully scored the Grizzlies' first point in the new season!

On the commentary stage, Hubby Brown was stunned! Link's quick change of direction just now, but it was impossible to play last season!

What did Link experience in the past offseason? As he trained his body, could he be faster?

He knew Link must have made progress, but he really didn't expect the progress to be so obvious!

So, Hubby Brown often evaluates Link in one sentence.
Chapter completed!
