Hello audience friends, welcome to ESPN! I'm Mike. Brin, sitting next to me is Kevin. Halan, today we will bring you the commentary of the game! ”

ESPN sent their ace commentator duo to Memphis today, which shows how much attention the game is getting in the spotlight. Originally, the fight for fifth place in the West on the final day of the regular season was enough of excitement, Kenyon. Martin kept adding oil and vinegar to it, which undoubtedly made the game even more hot.

"It's a battle between dark horses and dark horses, and the Denver Nuggets have been in the bottom six of the West this season before trading for Anthony, and even dropped out of the top eight at one point. But after trading Anthony, they immediately got back on track and finished fifth after the All-Star break. Of course, the Memphis Grizzlies are even more exaggerated. Ten days ago, they were eighth in the West. But now, it has rushed to sixth place in the west. Originally, for the Grizzlies to be able to make the playoffs in eighth place was already a victory. But for now, the Grizzlies want to do more. ”

Before the start of the game, Mike. Brin gave you a brief overview of these two teams. Both teams are the type of players who have had a bad start but have accumulated a lot of progress.

"yes, yes, the sudden rise of the Grizzlies and Nuggets has completely upset the landscape in the West. The fifth position in the West is very important for both the Nuggets and the Grizzlies. After all, no one wants to meet the defending champion in the first round, and no one wants to meet the Dallas Mavericks in the first round. It seems that the inexperienced Oklahoma City Thunder are more 'favored' by the Nuggets and Grizzlies. Of course, the Thunder are not a weak team, but they can still give the Grizzlies and Nuggets a glimmer of hope. So, this game will most likely directly determine how far the Grizzlies and Nuggets can go this season. ”

Mike. Brin and Kevin. After Harlan introduced the game, players from both sides stepped onto the pitch and the game was ready to begin.

The live footage very "ill-behaved" gives Martin and Link a close-up, Kenyon. Martin was very excited today and looked like he was eager to try it. Link, on the other hand, was very calm, as if he didn't care about Martin's pre-match remarks at all.

"I don't know today, Kenyon. What kind of sparks will Martin have with Link, to be honest, Mike, Kenyon's pre-game remarks are indeed a bit inappropriate, and his words are not very pretty. "On the podium, Kevin. Haaland also complained about Martin, he really didn't understand what a veteran and a rookie were comparing. What's more, there was no personal vendetta between Martin and Link before.

Martin personally can't get used to people, you just know it yourself, and his emotional intelligence is so low that he said it directly.

"That's true, and a lot of people are asking Kenyon. Martin apologized to Link, and Martin's remarks even angered many of the Nuggets' local Asian community. So far, however, Martin has not given any reply. We don't know if he wanted to reply to Link on the basketball court. However, Martin and Link are not playing against each other today, so I don't think there will be any conflict between them. ”

Mike. After Brin finished speaking, the referee tossed the ball high. Gasol Jr. took the lead in basketball, and the 82nd game that decided the fate of the Grizzlies in the playoffs officially began!

Link was very aggressive, and his run from the first round put Nuggets small forward Wilson Brown. Chandler was under pressure. And Link must also admit that Wilson. Chandler's defense is much better than Anthony's.

Whether it's positivity, toughness, or defensive skills, Chandler is above Anthony.

Conley controlled the ball outside the three-point line, Randolph immediately raised his hand to ask for the ball, and the Big Black Bears planned to contract the Grizzlies' first offense!

After Randolph got the ball, he began to sit back with his stocky body, and he wanted to force Martin in the low post!

Martin was able to rely on athleticism to help break through the perimeter at his peak, but low single defense has never been his strong point. This is a bit like the Nuggets' last best defensive player, Marcus. Camby.

But now, Martin has lost even the running and jumping ability he relied on to survive, and it is naturally difficult to resist Randolph's attack. Randolph forced a back-turn, squeezed Martin away for the basket, and then scored with an easy hook.

After the goal, Randolph also hammered Martin on the chest as a warning. Martin gritted his teeth, Link wasn't the only one he was annoying right now. Just like Francis gave Yao Ming a head back then, his little brother was bullied, and Randolph naturally had to help Link get ahead.

"Damn, do you know what it means to be tough!? You forgot what Lao Tzu told you!? If you can't fight, get down, soft egg! ”

Randolph had just scored a goal, and George. Karl yelled at Martin rudely. Old Carl doesn't care how many people and reporters there are at the scene, this guy is merciless when he scolds people.

"Damn, why don't you shout at me, stinky old man!" Martin muttered to himself in his heart, he actually didn't like the old Carl either, but there was no way, not everyone was like Anthony who could use a trade to blackmail the team.

Anthony can fly away, and Martin can only swallow his anger.

The Grizzlies scored first, and it was a tough one, which gave the Grizzlies fans at the scene a shot in the arm.

So, when the Nuggets players received the ball, all Grizzlies fans shouted "defend"!

This formation really has a playoff flavor.

After Billups was traded to the Knicks, the main control of the elder Carl became his long-loved Tay. Lawson.

The two main point guards on the Nuggets team today, Lawson and Raymond. Felton is a North Carolina graduate, George. Carl is very fond of these two guys, because the old Carl was also from North Carolina in the first place.

He believes that the players in North Carolina are tough and strong, so he has a lot of trust in them.

It turns out that Thai. Lawson lived up to George. Carl, since he started the game, Lawson's form and performance have been on the rise. A few days ago, on April 10, in the Nuggets' game against the Timberwolves, Lawson even shot 10 of 11 three-pointers, and scored 37 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists in the game!

Now, Lawson has become one of the offensive cores of the Nuggets. So Conley didn't dare to slack off for a moment, he didn't want to be the backdrop for Lawson to be famous.

Lawson was pressed by Conley, and his speed advantage couldn't be used at all. Italian striker Gallinari was replaced by Tony. Aaron winds and finds a gap for half a day.

So Martin took the initiative to bring it up, wanting to make a cover for Lawson.

Lawson broke through with cover, and the speed was very fast. Randolph was afraid that Lawson would attack the basket directly, so he moved a few steps in Lawson's direction.

Seeing this, Lawson immediately hit the ball to Martin, who cut in after blocking and dismantling! The angry Martin didn't even save the dribble, and after receiving the basketball, he took two big strides directly, and then jumped up violently, ready to dunk directly!

Randolph was too late to rush back, and he didn't want to be fouled early. It looked like Martin's dunk was inevitable.

Just as Martin's arm was about to exert force, a yellow lightning bolt suddenly jumped into the penalty area and jumped high in front of Martin. The audience cheered, it was Link!

'Link, he's been very aggressive defensively. But we don't know if he can intercept Martin in the air! "Mike. Brin was a little worried, after all, Link had never been known for his athleticism.

But in fact, Hill in the 08-09 season often staged a good show of flying hats. That year, the league even cut out a block collection.

Link knows this, so he's fearless. Besides, Kenyon in front of him. Martin, isn't it also a big drop in athleticism after the injury? They are all players whose athletic ability is not at their peak, who is afraid of whom!

Link collided with Martin in the air hard, and his long arm led his wrist to jerk, fanning the basketball out of Martin's hand!

Martin's center of gravity was unstable due to the collision with Link in the air, and he fell out of the baseline in embarrassment after landing. Link landed steadily, staring condescendingly at Martin. That look of contempt was Link's best response to Martin!

"Beautiful blocks, oh my god, Link's blocks in the past were mostly based on good judgment and accurate timing. But this time, I must admit that Link relied on him to bounce and eat Martin. It was a very ornamental block, and Martin would be ashamed of it. ”

Basketball is out of bounds, and the ball still belongs to the Nuggets. But there's no doubt that Link's block was enough to shock the Nuggets players.

Want to score points in the "big villain" penalty area? It's not an easy job.

"Damn, you idiot! Idiot! Karl yelled again, and the stands booed.

Martin felt that the whole world was humiliating him now, and he couldn't believe that he had let an Asian person fall to the ground.

Link raised his arms to the cheers of the crowd and said something to Martin, who had just gotten up.

"Do you feel the toughness of the Chinese players?"
