People will always mature, but it depends on whether they mature early or late.

There is no doubt that Zach Randolph belonged to the group who matured relatively late. During the golden age of his career, Randolph never focused on the basketball court.

Dupin, nightclub, privately hiding guns, absent from training, and beating teammates seemed to fill Zach Randolph's life.

But at this time, Randolph, who was already 30 years old, finally knew what he should do. He wanted to fight for his career, and most importantly, he wanted to fight for the Grizzlies.

He loves the Grizzlies because he seems to see his own shadow in the Grizzlies. When he was at his most downturn, the Grizzlies were willing to accept him and did not despise him at all. Therefore, he longed for his team to become stronger, and in fact, Randolph was working hard in this direction.

Therefore, he does not allow any Grizzlies players to make a living, especially newcomers.

After two minutes of the training match, Link's performance has always been very good. His performance is not because of how many points he scored, but because Link can appear in the most correct place every time according to the tactics.

Whether it is defensive position, offensive running position, cover with teammates, and basketball transmission, Link does it just right. As a role player, not making mistakes is more important than creating stunning. Link's stability on the basketball court is completely incomparable to Sam Young.

This time, Link blocked Sam Young's shot again. This was not because Link's defense was superb, but because Sam Young's attacking methods were too monotonous for Link.

Sam Young is undoubtedly a forward with excellent athletic skills, but it is very sad that this guy's dribble ability is not very good. He is not fast in dribbling speed, and it is difficult to bring the ball to the basket when facing a tough defense.

Therefore, Sam Young's favorite thing is to suddenly stop and jump after one or two steps. Sam Young's shooting level within the three-point line is still very high, which has been confirmed by the NBA game.

But because his offensive methods are too single, Link can tell when Sam Yang will take action without any effort. Whenever Sam Yang attacks with the ball, Link will count his steps. After two steps, he will jump and block, one block and the other is accurate.

Because of this, Sam Young's shooting almost every time he makes a defensive move today. If you are Kobe, you can do this naturally. But as an ordinary role player, Sam Young's shooting percentage is a bit terrible.

In two minutes, Sam Young made three shots, but none of them hit. After another shot, his shooting percentage turned into 0 for 4 shots.

Hollins shook his head, which was why he didn't trust Sam Young.

This kid is strong, has an active defense, can dunk and shoot. It is logically a very useful substitute. But his impatient actions on the court limit his progress. He is not stable enough, and the Grizzlies are a team that emphasizes stability.

Seeing that Sam Young's attack was stopped by Link again, Randolph snorted. The pressure on Link was too small, and Randolph decided to make this training more interesting.

So in the next defensive round, Randolph focused all his attention on Link. Once Sam Young was broken through, he would immediately make up for the defense. He wanted to see how a yellow-skinned player who looked slowly beat Sam Young so hard that he couldn't raise his head.

Conley was directing while dribbling. He made a gesture, and Link immediately began to run with understanding!

Although I only heard Elston Turner talk about the tactics, Link knew that this time the offensive tactic was to score inwardly! This is an opportunity to show off his offensive ability and must not be messed up.

Conley stopped outside the three-point line, and Darrell Arthur went up to cover. This was just a fake cover. Conley didn't plan to attack at all. He was waiting for Link to run.

Link and Gasol Jr. completed a no-ball screening cooperation. Under Gasol Jr.'s high-quality cover, Link easily got rid of the impatient Sam Young.

At the same time, Conley's basketball was delivered. Link, who cut into the basket, received the ball and got the chance to attack the frame!

"It's a tacit understanding!" Lionel Hollins clapped his hands off the court. There are many plug-and-play players in NBA. Their rich experience and extremely high basketball IQ ensure that they can adapt quickly in any team.

But this kind of player is usually a veteran. This is the first time Hollins has seen a rookie and can also do plug and play!

Randolph rushed to the penalty area from the side. Seeing Link jumping up, the "Big Black Bear" also jumped up. He didn't intend to be polite to Link, because he was bleeding from his own people, which was better than being laughed at by others in the official game!

Randolph waved his arm vigorously, but nothing happened! Link suddenly turned into a pass in the air and stuffed the ball from Randolph to the outside.

"What!?" Randolph widened his eyes. Is this guy really a forward? His passing vision is like Mike Conley!

Outside the three-point line, the one who received the basketball was Darrell Arthur, who was empty by Randolph.

Darrell Arthur was not very famous in the NBA, but he was also a storm in NCAA back then. As the leading striker at the University of Kansas, he led the team to defeat the University of Memphis with Derek Rose and won the NCAA championship that year.

Arthur was able to fly and debit when he was in college, but his athletic ability was a little mediocre after coming to the NBA. However, as a number four, he had a steady three-pointer, which was his capital to gain a foothold in the NBA.

In this era when the space-type fourth position was not yet popular, Arthur occasionally made a sudden three-pointer, which always gave the other party a major blow, for example now.

Randolph was completely attracted by Link to the inside, so Arthur got a chance to shoot a big open spot. He did not waste this opportunity, but instead turned Link's wonderful pass into assists.

Arthur scored a goal, but Link tilted his head at Randolph, "You almost blocked me."

"Little bastard!" Randolph was yelling, but a smile appeared on his face.

This kind of smart and unruly teammate seems to be very suitable for Randolph's appetite.

In this round, Randolph wanted to attack Link but failed. In the next round, Randolph did not expect that he would be attacked by Link.

This time, Randolph planned to use his tonnage to hardly crush Arthur. But he was just holding the ball on his back and encountered a double team.

The person who came up to double-team him was Link!

Hollins frowned. Double-teaming Randolph was not his strategy. A player does not have to follow the head coach's wishes on the court, but if the player acts freely and loses points, it will not be allowed.

So, will Link's freedom action succeed?

Link's double-team is very terrible. He has been interfering with Randolph's lower plate, making Randolph not dare to put the ball below his chest. How high is the No. 0 Chinese? Sam Yang has helped Randolph experience it just now.

If you can't put the ball down, Randolph will not be able to turn around and break through. It is too ruthless to hook or turn over and jump shot directly at this distance.

In desperation, Randolph had to pass the ball to Sam Young, who was emptied.

Sam Young had a chance to shoot after receiving the basketball from outside the three-point line, but due to his eye-catching three-point shooting percentage, he actually hesitated!

In the NBA level game, hesitation for a second, and the opportunity flies in a flash. By the time he reacted, Link had already returned to Sam Yang!

"Beautiful!" Hollins couldn't help but applaud off the court. He could no longer remember how many times he had applauded Link today, but he just couldn't help it.

Link successfully curbed his opponent's offense with active running and smart strategies. This kind of defense is exactly what Hollins likes.

At this time, Hollins couldn't help but ask, how did Link lose the election? No matter how bad he is, he is worth a second round. With this basketball IQ, it is enough to rank Link in the top 60 of this year's rookies.

Sam Young had to pass the ball again after being hit by Link. Randolph lost his best offensive position due to his unsuccessful attack. Their offense was completely destroyed and finally ended with Mayo's singles.

Seeing Mayo choosing to fight Tony Allen alone, Link shook his head. Mayo is a typical person with a star disease and a star's life.

Gasol Jr. took the rebound, and Link's team quickly launched an attack. Conley took the ball this time and immediately gave the ball to Link after receiving Gasol Jr.

But Link was blocked by Sam Young, so he delayed some time. Randolph came from behind and immediately ran to the basket to guard.

Although it was blocked, Link, who is now lighter, is not at all incomparable. He broke through Sam Yang with a strange change of direction. The feeling of breaking through the extraordinary breakthrough made Link extremely happy.

If you upgrade to Peak Hill in the future, then the extraordinary sorrow will not take off? After all, Peak Hill’s first step is amazing.

After passing Sam Young, Link broke into the penalty area and took three steps directly.

Randolph's reaction was half a beat slow. He thought Link would choose to pass the ball, but he didn't expect that this kid would play so hard!

Link's yellow skin always makes people think that he is a soft man. But in fact, Link does not reject confrontation.

Because the sealing time was half a beat slower, Randolph failed to complete the sealing, but instead his entire bulky body pressed on Link.

Link gritted his teeth and maintained his balance, trying to ensure that his hand shape did not deform. Then, he was knocked out of the bottom line by this "big black bear". But the moment he fell to the ground, Link heard Turner's whistle and the sound of basketball entering the net!

"Damn, Zach. You actually gave the opponent a chance to score a three-pointer. If it were in the official game, you could already get out! Well done, Link! If someone takes it lightly on the defensive end, punish him like this!"

Hollins yelled off the court, and Randolph waved his hand helplessly and walked towards Link.

At first, Link thought Randolph would come to squirt about him. However, he didn't know that the "Big Black Bear" actually stretched out his strong arms to Link on the ground.

"Well done, I should play in Memphis like this. By the way, I forgot to say at noon, welcome to the Grizzlies, man."
Chapter completed!
