522: A three-point rain

Link made the second consecutive three-pointer, which forced Anthony to be alert.

The first three-pointer, Link just shot at an open position. But for this second three-pointer, Link used a step back shot.

It is not easy to hit a three-pointer with defense. As a scorer, Anthony himself knows how difficult it is to hit a three-pointer.

As an offensive kaleidoscope, a super scorer. Anthony has made the most three-pointers so far in his career, with only 9. This record was created by Anthony two months ago in the game against the Hawks.

Before that, Anthony had only 7 three-pointers long in a single game.

The number of three-pointers a player can hit in a game is very limited. Even if Link averages two three-pointers in a quarter, he has to add up to 8 in one game.

Therefore, when Link made the second three-pointer, Anthony began to be a little afraid. Even though the Knicks relied on offense to win, Anthony knew very well that he had to work hard on the defensive end.

Shooting usually has the better the more you make the shot. So, what Anthony has to do next is to interrupt Link's goal rhythm.

Now, there is only one point gap between the two sides, and the Knicks urgently needs a goal. But with Link looking at Anthony, his score naturally cannot be as easy as before.

Although Anthony just made a turnover jump shot on Link's head, everyone knew very well that Anthony could not be so fucking with Link in every round.

So this time, Raymond Filton took the banner of attack. This experienced defender believed that just Nick Young could not stop him.

Nick Young really failed to stop Felton, his ability to get rid of the pick-and-roll was too poor. After Felton called Martin to cover, he easily broke through Nick Young.

Under Gasol's backup defense, Felton chose to throw and shoot very smartly. Strike can be said to be the most difficult to block among all shooting methods. Because the plot of the throw is very high, it is basically impossible for someone to block it. If it can be blocked, it will basically interfere with the ball.

Therefore, throwing is also a powerful tool for small people to deal with big people.

In this way, Felton easily scored a goal. Mike Woodson below was so excited that he kept punching, and the difference became 3 points again! The Knicks still took the initiative!

Anthony also celebrated with Felton, who did it on purpose to stimulate Link.

"What's the use of you getting so many points? Are you still lagging behind?"

Although he didn't speak, Anthony had already passed on what he wanted to express to Link.

"Yang, if you don't have it, just go around and let him shoot." Link shouted. He knew that Nick Yang's defense was not good, but he couldn't let the opponent enter so easily.

Nick Young entered the league in 2007, and his qualifications were much deeper than Link. When he started playing against NBA, Link was still hanging in the NCAA second-level league.

But facing Link's shouting, Nick Young nodded obediently. He may not like passing the ball, but it is not unreasonable.

What the team core says must listen!

Link actually doesn't expect Nick Young's defense to be improved to a higher level immediately, so it's not what he does.

But at least, you have to show your attitude. Let the Knicks players know that it is not easy to score in the Grizzlies at halftime.

Link looked up at the big screen and fell behind by 3 points. In other words, one three-pointer can be done...

Do you still have to shoot three-pointers? You have already made two shots in this quarter. But when you think of how smoothly he made his first two three-pointers, Link made up his mind.

Invest! Invest far! Invest several!

After the Grizzlies attacked, as Link expected, Anthony put it very tight this time. It seems that he would rather be broken than give Link any shooting space.

Link was not in a hurry. He couldn't make a shot in this round, and at worst he could make another shot in the next round. Link really couldn't do anything like Kobe's paranoid thing that had to take action even with two or three people.

Link was watched by Anthony, and the basketball was eventually taken by Nick Young.

Young Master Yang was replaced, and his purpose was to score. If he didn't take action, he might as well send Jimmy Butler to the scene.

Therefore, Nick Young's move was very firm. He would not hesitate at all, even if Felton actually did a good job in his defense.

Unfortunately, Nick Yang's anti-natural touch does not exist every day. As soon as this ball was shot, it was obviously biased.

For fans, it may not be obvious. But for professional players like Link and others, you can tell if there is any such ball as soon as you shoot it.

Seeing this, Anthony hurried to the basket to fight for rebounds. The Knicks' height was already at a disadvantage, so if Martin and Gasol were fighting for rebounds one-on-one at the basket, they would be very disadvantageous.

As a number four position, Anthony naturally has the obligation to protect the rebounds.

However, Link did not follow Anthony in to grab the rebound, but did not retreat. He just ran to the right bottom corner silently. If Gasol could grab the offensive rebound... this would directly create an open position!

Gasol held back Martin and stared at basketball with his eyes focused. Although Gasol's career has not had a double digit rebound per game in a year, Espanyol's rebounding ability is actually not weak.

He has few rebounds, mainly because his mission in the Grizzlies is not to collect rebounds, but to help his teammates stand out.

In this way, the one who benefits the most is Randolph. This guy's data of more than a dozen rebounds in a game is how it comes.

But if you let Gasol catch the rebound, he can do it too.

Gasol jumped up happily after holding onto Martin and stretched out his arm. Anthony also rushed from the side, but the height was a little smaller than Gasol. In the end, Martin and Anthony could only watch Gasol get the offensive rebound first.

"Oh no!" Anthony's heart was half-sick when he was grabbed by Gasol. He was not afraid of Gasol's second attack, but was afraid that he was not guarding Link's side!

Sure enough, the next second, Gasol accurately sent the ball to the bottom corner.

Anthony turned his head and looked, Link was there!

The King of New York ran towards Link in despair. Link had no mercy or hesitation and shot when he caught the ball!

As a long insider, Gasol has a strong passing ability. Link almost doesn't need to adjust after getting the ball, and he can take action comfortably.

Link had already completed his move, and Anthony's blockade had just arrived.

Link looked at the flying trajectory of the basketball and seemed to have this ball again!

Anthony prayed in his heart, "Don't go in, don't go in!"

It’s a pity that God is not at home today. Or, he put on a No. 0 jersey.

"brush!"

The sound of the basketball rolling was extremely clear, and Link curled up the corner of his mouth. It may be accidental once or twice. But three consecutive three-pointers are not something that luck can help!

"Link scored again with three-pointers! He helped the Grizzlies equalize the score! But...it's incredible!"

The local commentator in New York almost shocked his chin. Link was going to have a chance to play with Anthony today!

Anthony covered his head in annoyance. He wanted to protect the rebounds too much, but unexpectedly made a big mistake.

Anthony was not surprised that Link could hit an open shot. But after letting the opponent hit three consecutive three-pointers, it would be difficult to suppress it later.

Seeing Link tie the score with a three-pointer, Dave Joggel on the bench was so happy.

In the Hollins era, the biggest problem with the Grizzlies was that their offense was not sharp enough. Especially the three-pointers, they always couldn't keep up with the times.

Link made a huge improvement after joining, but it was not enough.

But look at the Grizzlies' three-pointers can be used as a trump card.

The growth rate of this team is simply comparable to that of the Rockets who took off.

Anthony was panicked and was scored 9 points by others, which was not easy to put on anyone.

So in the subsequent attack, the impatient Anthony played very roughly. Without completely getting rid of Link, he turned over and jumped, hoping to use the same trick again.

But Link is not the kind of defender who will be easily defeated. He tried to block and reduce Anthony's shooting space as much as possible. Under such a tight defense, even the scoring champion was not sure.

In the end, the basketball came out of the box and the Knicks failed to continue the score! Link actively grabbed the rebound and quickly carried the ball forward!

Since Link had just scored three consecutive three-pointers, the Knicks blocked him very closely.

Link carried Anthony's tough confrontation to the basket. Seeing that the Knicks' entire defense line had contracted, Link calmly passed the ball!

Nick Yang, who had just run outside the three-point line, received the basketball. He knew that the opportunity to make up for the merits has come!

Felton just scored 2 points on his head, so he would get one more point!

Nick Yang stopped urgently, as if she was afraid that it would be too close to the basket. Anthony's heart was cold when he saw Nick Yang's move.

But soon, Anthony was relieved. He no longer had to worry about being afraid, because Nick Young's three-pointer really made it.

The Grizzlies scored four three-pointers in a row, and the Knicks went from having the advantage at the beginning to falling behind.

Mike Woodson did not wait any longer, but immediately suspended the game. If you indulge yourself like this, God knows how many three-pointers the Grizzlies can score!

Link looked at the depressing stands in Madison Square Garden and made one for all New York fans.

A “shhh” gesture.

Grizzlies will lose three consecutive times? Be your dream of spring and autumn!

Although he was provoked by Link, New York fans could only endure it. There was no way, who did make the game just now?

At this time, on the Knicks' bench, Mike Woodson was looking for a solution to the problem.

His method is very simple. In addition to emphasizing the defense against Link, he also made a substitution.

"., take action after you have the chance! If you want to score, I believe you two won't lose!"

Woodson called out to sit on the bench. Smith, the guy who ranked No. 6 this year, has been impatient for a long time.

Anthony +., double gun attack!
Chapter completed!
