Although not all main players will end up in rotation time, Stevens still won Link, Iguodala and the Black and White Bears as planned.

On the court, only Mike Conley was left to stabilize the situation.

On the Thunder, Scott Brooks' substitution fully exposed his ambitions.

Reggie Jackson, who scored 8 points in the first quarter, will cooperate with Kevin Martin and Kevin Durant on the court! Brooks only replaced Westbrook, who was addicted to wave shots today, and left Martin and Durant on the court!

Seeing Stevens withdrawing Iguodala and Link, Brooks smiled from ear to ear. He wanted to see how the Grizzlies resist the attack of this lineup! If nothing unexpected happens, the Thunder should be able to widen the score difference to double digits in the last four minutes!

And the next time, the Grizzlies will not be able to fill in the gap so easily.

Scott Brooks is full of confidence. Although Tony Allen is strong in defense, no matter how strong he is, he cannot be a clone. At present, Reggie Jackson and Kevin Martin join forces, and the tired Conley and the weak in attack and defense of Nick Young will definitely be tired of dealing with it.

"Wait? Who is that?" Brooks suddenly pulled out of his mind because he found that the Grizzlies did not continue to play against Nick Young, but instead took Jimmy Butler No. 21 to the court!

"What plane do you want?" As the head coach, Scott Brooks naturally knew Jimmy Butler, but he just knew it.

After all, Jimmy Butler hasn't played well since he entered the league last season. For most teams, he is a name that is directly ignored in tactical meetings.

After all, who would study a player who can't play at all?

Scott Brooks scratched his head. Did Stevens seek medical treatment in a hurry? Nick Young, who scored 25 points in the last game, didn't need to go to a player at the end of the bench!

You are the elderly Bathir, and you are more reliable than this guy named Jimmy Butler!

Scott Brooks didn't think much. In any case, he firmly believed that the Thunder could completely widen the gap in the last few minutes of the second quarter!

"Can that kid do it? The Thunder's rotation lineup is too strong!" Randolph sat next to Link, looking a little worried.

"Who do you say? Jimmy? Don't worry, I believe him 100%!" Link smiled, don't forget, Butler is the one who fought with him in the Dream Team this summer!

The game started again, and the Thunder attacked first. Now, the Thunder temporarily led by 2 points, and they decided to completely widen the gap from now on.

Tony Allen is not easy against Durant. Although Tony Allen has never been this season, his ability is still unquestionable. He is still one of the best outside defense gates in the entire league. Even Durant, the three-game scoring champion, is difficult to score under the entanglement of Tony Allen.

Seeing that Durant was entangled so much that there was no room for connecting the ball, Reggie Jackson decided to continue working alone!

The first quarter was 8 points, which made Reggie Jackson feel confident. He waved his hand and played a cross-running position with Kevin Martin. In this way, Jimmy Butler switched to Reggie Jackson.

Jackson smiled and came again as a background board!

Jackson quickly changed hands under his crotch and then suddenly started. He thought that such a breakthrough was efficient enough. After all, this was how he beat Nick Young against the first quarter.

But Jackson had just taken a step and before he could speed up, he seemed to hit a solid wall and was forced to stop!

When he looked up, Reggie Jackson only saw the resolute, somewhat like Jordan.

"Jimmy Butler's lateral movement was very fast, and he didn't let Reggie Jackson rush over!"

Jackson did not give up. He leaned against Butler and turned around and rushed to the basket.

But Butler is still chasing Reggie Jackson. He is not Nick Young, and he will give up on defense easily.

Jackson took off and made a layup without completely getting rid of Jimmy Butler, but the next second, Reggie Jackson suddenly felt that the basket was lost!

Jackson looked around. The two substitute Grizzlies' inside players Azeli and Speitz were not under the basket at this time. The one that covered him was

"Bang!" Before Reggie Jackson could think clearly, he heard a crisp sound.

When he looked up, the basketball in his hand had been nailed to the rebound.

Reggie Jackson suddenly felt cold, and he turned around. Sure enough, it was the unknown number 21!

"Big hat! Oh my God, did you see it? Jimmy Butler's bounce height and speed are amazing. This kid's athletic ability is very exciting! Reggie Jackson thought that he could score easily like he was against Nick Young, but he was outrageously wrong! Jimmy Butler did not allow his matchup to easily score!"

The audience exclaimed, Jimmy Butler broke the fantasy of Reggie Jackson's desire to be a hero in the most cruel way!

Off the court, Thunder coach Brooks was also shocked. Where did Jimmy Butler come out? So defensive? What monsters are hidden on the Grizzlies' bench!

The Grizzlies immediately fought back. Stevens's requirement for this rotation lineup is to hit fast and push counterattack. Neither Azeli nor Spetz are heavy insiders, and they can run. Therefore, there is no need to fall into the position like the main lineup.

Conley rode the ball and headed straight to the Thunder's basket.

The Thunder's defense contracted without hesitation. Now that Nick Young is not here, Conley is the only attack point. As long as he defends him, the attack of the Grizzlies' lineup will be silent!

However, the orange-red Spalding basketball jumped out from among a bunch of guys wearing white jerseys and fell steadily to Jimmy Butler, who had just run to the right three-point line.

Does Jimmy Butler have three-pointers? Maybe he is the same as Tony Allen? The Thunder players are confused, so Kevin Martin doesn't know whether to pounce. What if he pounces on him and they break through again?

The Thunder's defensive players were hesitating, but Jimmy Butler would not.

He and Link sweated together in the summer. After the season started, he practiced even harder than Link who had a competition task! He paid so much just to seize this fleeting opportunity!

Link said nothing wrong, opportunities are always reserved for those who are prepared. And now, Butler thinks he is ready!

Jimmy Butler decisively took action outside the three-point line. During college, Butler's three-point shooting percentage was simply bad. After entering the NBA, he could be said to have basically no scoring ability. But after a year of improvement, Butler is now no longer the same.

Some of the Thunder players are ready to protect rebounds, while others start running to the frontcourt and are ready to fight back.

But Butler still maintained the wrist pressing posture when shooting, and he believed that he could do it.

"brush!"

After a period of flight, the basketball was hollowed into the net, and a white wave was blown out!

The Thunder fans in the game were confused? Who is that guy? What did he do? The Thunder was overtaken!?

Butler waved his fist gently, then pointed to Link on the bench.

"Haha, it seems that that kid is indeed trustworthy." Randolph next to Link also laughed. Jimmy Butler was extremely calm on the court. He was not like a player who was ordered in danger, but more like a normal rotation player.

Day-after-day training made Jimmy Butler never ruthless.

Link is now at ease, butler + Tony Allen + Conley, enough for the Thunder’s substitute lineup to have a drink.

Now, Link just wants to rest. Then, as Stevens said, burst out at some point in the second half, leading a wave of offensives that were enough to kill the game.
Chapter completed!
