831: The pinnacle of strength shown for the first time (3rd update 4K)

LeBron. James would never have imagined that the Cavaliers would start like this, and it's hard to imagine what the game would have been like without Love's 12 points in a single quarter and without his 2-of-3 shooting from beyond the three-point line.

Dieng. Vitesse has been pressed to the bench, and just now, Cavaliers coach David Bush has been pushed to the bench. Blatter has already informed Vitesse that he will not continue to start in the second quarter.

Mike, who played for the Grizzlies last season. Miller will replace Vitesse and go with Jimmy. Butler confronted.

Let a small bench who averages only about 10 points per game score 9 points in a single quarter, and Vitesse's performance is naturally criticized. What's more, while being easily scored by Butler, Vitesse has not been able to score even 1 point on Butler!

Throughout the first quarter, he was completely clean sheet by Butler. Throughout the first quarter, Dieng. Vitesse has nothing to contribute to the team.

Since James returned to the Cavaliers, Witesse knew he couldn't be the absolute core anymore. But he still hasn't given up on his dream of stardom, and he hopes to become the Cavaliers' fourth biggest man after James, Irving and Love.

But today, in just one quarter, Vitesse was beaten back to reality.

He can't even fucking get a substitute for the other party, let alone a giant!

Vitesse knew he had completely screwed up today. But the good news is that the Cavaliers still have a chance, and he still has a chance. The game was only played for one quarter, and he certainly couldn't sit on the bench for the rest of the game.

As long as he can contribute to the victory of this match, Vitesse believes that he can save his reputation!

No matter how strong the Memphis Grizzlies are, it is impossible to get the Cavaliers at halftime.

Well...... It should be.

In the second quarter, the Cavaliers players' expressions were noticeably more serious.

In an effort to turn the tide, the Cavaliers made two substitutions in the second quarter. Vitesse was replaced by Miller, while Vallejo was replaced by No. 4 pick '11 Tristan. Thompson took his place.

Although Tristan. Thompson is only 2.08m tall and has no advantage in the No. 5 position. But the good thing is that Thompson is athletic, can run and jump, and plays very aggressively.

David. Blatter now needs Thompson's pace to deal with the Grizzlies' offense, and in the second quarter, he asked Thompson to be responsible for both Link and Butler.

In Vallejo's words, the slow-moving Brazilian would have been a doppelganger. But with the fast-moving Thompson, maybe he can really contain two people at once.

Joggel saw Blatter's thoughts, and I have to say that Blatter's thinking was still very clear. After all, he is a coach who has made great achievements in European and international basketball, and his business ability is certainly not to be said.

But Joggle believes that Blatter still knows too little about the NBA. Unlike European basketball and the international arena, the NBA has some players who cannot be contained by tactics.

And soon, Blatter will realize this.

After the start of the second quarter, James used a mid-range pull-up jump shot to pull the Cavaliers back, and the difference became 3 points, and it seemed that he only needed to work hard to close the gap!

Link could see that James was planning to get into offensive mode early. But Link is not worried, because James has to be able to resist his own attack first!

In the second quarter, Link clearly noticed that the Cavaliers' defense of himself was not as tight as it was in the first quarter.

Jimmy. Butler's 9 points in the first quarter forced the Cavaliers to focus some of their attention on him.

Link curled the corners of his mouth slightly, Butler had done his job. Next, leave it to yourself!

After his teammates were all in position, Link walked towards Conley, who was in possession at the top of the arc, as if to play a pick-and-roll with Conley.

Irving and James were undecided, and they didn't know whether to change their defenses decisively. If Owen is asked to go to Link, there is no doubt that Owen is dead. Kelly. Irving's defensive ability is not at the same level as his offense.

But what if you don't change it? God knows what Link will do. That guy, but he can score a goal if he gives him a gap.

In the end, James glanced at Owen and motioned for Owen to change his defense!

Of course, Owen won't be directly in front of Link. He just needs to block it for James, buy James some time, and then quickly switch back.

The two of them made a plan and prepared to execute. As everyone knows, Link didn't cover with Conley, but handed it over!

The moment Link received the basketball from Conley's hand, he immediately exploded and accelerated!

Other stars have an acceleration process, but Link doesn't. Make the speed from 0 to 100 as if it were just a matter of a moment!

Link felt that his acceleration was so enjoyable that there was no lag!

When he first entered the league, Elder Hill's body always made Link feel extremely bulky. Aside from catch-and-shoot shots, he could hardly find any way to attack.

Later, Hill in the middle and late stages of his career was not so slow. But Link always felt like he was playing an NBA2K game, his body was always inflexible and he had a lot of inertia.

Later, the inertia became smaller, the body became more flexible, and Link was able to run and jump. But Link always felt that there was a sense of lag in everything he did, and any movement would be half a beat slower than his mind thought. It's like playing a game with a network lag.

At first, Link thought it was just a psychological effect.

But now, when Link can accelerate as soon as he wants, and the speed can immediately soar to the highest point, Link knows that it is not a psychological effect. Now, he's got rid of that lag completely!

The fastest first step in the alliance is indeed worthy of its name!

James couldn't bypass Conley and chase in front of Link in such a short time, so he had to be switched by Irving!

Owen reacted fast enough, but when he moved sideways, he was still half a position overtaken by Link!

After Link passed by him, Owen even felt a strong wind hang up!

People always say that chasing the wind boy, chasing the wind boy. But Owen feels that now the wind is chasing Link!

Owen was behind in the first step, and with his ability to fight, he couldn't even force Link to slow down through confrontation!

Just like that, Link instantly smashed into the inside line. At this time, between him and the basket, there is a Tristan. Thompson is up.

Tristan. Thompson entered the league only a year later than Link, and Jimmy. Butler is a rookie in the same class. But in Link's eyes, Thompson was as young and confused as a sophomore.

It was as if he had never seen such a speed, and he had never experienced such a sense of oppression.

Thompson stood motionless as if his body had been filled with lead.

Link is getting closer and closer to him, but when Link rushes in front of him, he "disappears" in an instant.

Link swiped past a stunned Thompson and made an easy layup.

A hand-to-hand hand, a seemingly unpretentious layup, but the three players of the Cavaliers were stunned.

"Is it a delusion!?" James looked at Link who landed easily, and blinked his eyes vigorously, why did he feel that Link seemed to be faster than when he played the finals half a year ago!?

Irving was covered in goosebumps, he had never seen a forward player so fast.

Tristan. Thompson didn't come to his senses until Link had scored, and his responsibility was to protect the basket, but when Link did attack, Thompson simply didn't have the courage to go against Link.

Link looked at his hands and felt so happy!

The power at its peak is that you can do whatever you want!

James began to have a racing heartbeat, but not from exhaustion, but from nervousness.

In the first quarter of the game, Link's entire stroke made the Cavaliers so passive. Now that Link has a tendency to take over the offense, James really doesn't know if the Cavaliers can resist it.

"Tristan, don't be nervous, remember your duty!" James had to remind Thompson that he didn't want Link to go to the rim again and again.

The Cavaliers are still looking for a counter-attacking opportunity, and James is ready to break through the ball again, ready to continue to find the hot Lefou.

But "Big Black Bear" Randolph didn't let Love get his wish this time, and he cut off James' pass directly in the passing route.

In the first quarter of the game, Love scored 12 points, and the most unhappy was undoubtedly Randolph.

Lefou, who is 7 years younger than Randolph, does have a physical advantage over Randolph. So not only did he shoot two three-pointers, but he also ate Randolph twice under the basket.

Randolph still holds a grudge against this. He had already figured out James' passing route, so this time, Randolph didn't continue to let Love do nonsense.

Many people ignore a statistic, last season, Randolph was a No. 4 position, but he was able to contribute 1.3 steals per game!

For comparison, Irving, the point guard, only made 0.2 more steals than Randolph last season.

In addition to cutting the ball directly in the opponent's hand, what Randolph does best is intercepting the pass! So, James is just right in the middle!

"Don't repeat the same tricks, bastard!" Randolph yelled and passed the ball out.

This time, it's not Conley who catches the ball, it's Link!

The Grizzlies want to play a fast break directly through Link!

Tristan. When Thompson and James saw this, they immediately chased back, preferring to foul rather than let Link easily take away two points.

James slammed into Link near the halfway line, which kind of slowed Link.

Meanwhile, Thompson and Love rushed back to the basket in time to prepare for Link's onslaught.

Link didn't give up on counter-attacking after being hit by James, his eyes were fixed on Butler, who was inserted from the right, as if he was ready to hand the ball to the opponent.

But just when Link was about to pass the ball outside of James, Link changed direction to the right without slowing down at all!

Link deceived James with a feint in his eyes, he didn't even plan to pass the ball!

In an instant, James was overtaken by a position. Link's change of direction just now reminded James of Derek. Ross. Yes, the last person who could excel in the NBA with this kind of change of direction was Rose!

However, Rose's fate is known, and he didn't finally return until this season, and his form is in a mystery. Even though Rose was still young, he was the same age as Link, but Rose could no longer replicate such an exaggerated move as not slowing down.

But Link, but still like an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, is running with incredible physical fitness!

Link shook off James and entered the box, but at this point the Cavaliers basketed and Tristan. Thompson and Kevin. The two elders of Lefu are already in place.

They're ready to forge a wall and block Link's way to the hoop!

Thompson was mentally prepared this time, he wasn't nervous, he knew he had to get the guy in the No. 0 jersey to get it.

Link still didn't slow down, looking at the two people who were gradually leaning together like two doors, Link chose to jump directly!

In the air, Love and Thompson were moving left and right towards Link, and it looked like Link had no way to score.

At the same time, James also chased from behind. Once again, Link is in a 1-on-3 situation in the air!

But Link didn't panic, he curled his abdomen slightly in the air with his powerful core strength, and then brought the basketball to his chest and stretched it out to the basket through the gap between the bodies of Love and Thompson!

Although the space is very cramped, the environment is very harsh. But Link resisted the pressure and gently picked it up.

The basketball obediently "jumped" into the net, and under the three-man bag, Link still scored easily!

"Beautiful pull-up basket, how can Link do so much movement in the air? His ability to stay in the air is simply amazing! However, at the All-Star Game earlier this year, everyone should have experienced Link's anti-gravity stagnation. The Cavaliers couldn't stop him at all, and Link's personal ability completely crushed the Cavaliers' defense. ”

Hubi. Brown, like all the fans in the room, has behaved completely uncontrollably. Link's goal was like a stimulant that got everyone's adrenaline pumping.

Link scored two goals in a row, and both goals were extremely difficult. Although James is very reluctant to admit it, he must accept the fact that Link is still getting stronger!

At this point, the score difference has come to 7 points. The 7-point margin is very subtle and doesn't seem like much, but if the Cavaliers lose one more round, the Grizzlies have a chance to extend the margin to double digits!

This time offensively, James wanted to find Mike. Miller. Since the Lefou's point has been sealed off by Randolph, find another three-point battery.

David. Blatter used Miller to play against Butler, not only because Miller was experienced, but also because he knew Butler better.

But equally, Butler also knows Miller Sr. well. Four months ago, they played the finals together.

James just passed the ball out and regretted it because he found out that Jimmy. Butler judged the target of the pass very accurately.

Butler opened his five fingers and pocketed the basketball directly, and James made a mistake for the second round in a row!

"Jimmy, ball!"

No sooner had Butler secured the ball than Link cut in from the middle and reached for it.

Link's offensive desire in the second quarter of the game was a world of difference compared to the first quarter!

Butler didn't hesitate and gave the ball to Link vigorously.

James was exhausted, he had never felt so embarrassed.

This time, he decided to go straight back to the basket, and since he couldn't slow down Link, he waited for Link to face off directly in the air!

But Link suddenly stopped one step away from the three-point line, and he pulled up and shot!

James and everyone on the Cavaliers are stupid, is Link crazy? This is a fast-break opportunity, and he actually shoots from such a distance!?

Look down on people less!

Not to mention the Cavaliers players, even most Grizzlies fans don't understand Link's operation, which is too messy.

But Jimmy. Butler laughed and dribbled to a long-range shot, a skill that Link had spent the summer honing.

Link sent a long-range run, and James was ready to pick up the rebound.

But just before the basketball went into the net, Link had already turned his back to the basket and raised his arms high.

And then the next second - "Brush!" ”

Dieng on the Cavaliers bench. Vitesse looked stupid directly, how could there be such a player on this planet!?

He was glad that the game had only finished the first quarter, and the Cavaliers still had a chance, and he still had room to perform.

But now, the second quarter has just begun, and the Cavaliers are already 10 points behind!

Do the Cleveland Cavaliers really have a chance? This time, Vitesse put a big question mark in his mind.
