Cousins was full of energy today, and although his brain was always lacking, this guy was still quite passionate about the game.

At 2.11 meters, he is slightly shorter than Gasol Jr., but with his more powerful jumping ability, Cousins still won the basketball for the Kings.

The Kings were led by Terek. Evans handled the ball himself, and after letting Evans play the point guard out last season, the Kings immediately corrected that mistake this season.

But there are some mistakes that cannot be reversed. Now, for example, after a year of quarterquartering, Evans can't find the same spirituality he once had. His current effect as a point guard is very average, from the playmaking effect to the assist statistics, it is not as good as in the first year.

Link went straight to Evans, but instead of pressing closely, he broke through the main defence.

Evans' inconsistent projection is his biggest weakness. In three seasons, Evans hasn't shot more than 30 percent from three-point range, and this year it's an exaggerated 20.2 percent.

Not to mention three points, Evans is not even very reliable in the middle of the shot. He averages half of his shots from under the basket, which shows what style of player he is.

Evans called Cousins for cover from beyond the three-point line, but for this kind of player who only penetrates, it won't be difficult to guard against him and the big man's pick-and-roll combination.

Just retreat and it's over.

Link bypassed Cousins directly behind and waited for Evans to come in the back!

Sure enough, even though Link gave him such a big gap, Evans didn't choose to shoot, and it seems that he still has a good idea of his shooting level. That's better than Westbrook, at least Evans isn't wasteful.

After Evans rushed out of Cousins' side, Link mercilessly blocked it, interrupting Evans' breakthrough.

Evans suffered an injury to plantar fasciitis, which caused him to start off much less quickly than before. This is also the reason why his scoring has decreased year by year in the past three seasons.

With ease, Link forced a halt for Evans, who had no choice but to play the ball to Cousins, who cut inside. After Cousins received the basketball, he went directly to Gasol Jr. and went to the basket, which was the kind of strong that did not dodge.

In the next second, the people in the penalty area turned on their backs! The referee's quick whistle blew and Cousins shook his fist, thinking he had been fouled.

As a result, the referee shouted number 15 and then pointed to the technical table. My cousin realized that the referee was blowing an offensive foul!

"Offensive foul!? What the!? Cousins rushed to the referee with a look of surprise on his face, and the bout had only started the first round when the goods were about to explode on the spot.

The teammates quickly persuaded Cousins to leave, and the cousin gave up.

Link sighed, rushing over in a daze like you, who will foul if you don't foul you......

And just like that, the Grizzlies easily got the offensive ball. The Kings are not very disciplined defensively, and their new coach Keith. Smart is not a coach who is good at deploying defense.

And today, the Grizzlies players are clearly deliberately feeding Link the ball in the hope that he can score more points. Respectful is better than obeying, Link then holds the ball and starts to single Evans!

Evans was still quite serious defensively, and although he was a little lacking in confidence, his attitude was still there.

But Link only used a very beautiful big change of direction to directly pass the former best rookie.

Evans has average defensive judgment and used to rely mainly on athleticism to defend. Now that the athleticism is lost, the defense is even more inadequate.

With ease, Link made it to mid-range and then softened before Evans caught up.

"Brush!" The basketball hollowed into the net, and the Grizzlies scored the first goal with great ease, so to speak, scoring without even executing the tactics.

"The Kings have to be tighter defensively, or the score will be pulled apart very quickly." Jay. Rose didn't want this game to be ruined, because it would be very boring tonight.

But it's a pity that the second offense of the Kings is still iron!

This time, Evans forced Link to make a layup. Evans may have wanted to be ashamed, but it was inappropriate.

Not to mention that the Grizzlies have black and white bears on the inside, and Link is not saying that a strong burst can be a strong burst.

After all, his weight and strength are completely different from last season. In the end, Evans missed a layup in a very intense confrontation and fell off the baseline in embarrassment.

The Grizzlies immediately began to fight back, taking advantage of Evans' fall, and if the Grizzlies were fast enough, they could form more and fight less.

Don't say anything about victory, in the world of competitive sports, there is only the winner and the loser.

Link took the opportunity to land in the bottom right corner, and Mike. Conley broke through and found Link unattended. The latter calmly made a three-point shot, and the basketball went into the net for the second time!

5-0, two rounds down, the Kings were already down by 5 points before they could react to what was happening.

Cousins had just run back to his own half, and he was about to turn back and run, and his heart was half cold.

"It's not going to be so bad all the time, there will definitely be a twist." Cousins picked up the basketball and silently comforted himself in his heart.

Sometimes it's like this in basketball, it's possible that the opponent will score a few in a row, and then your own side will score a few in a row. Could it be that the Grizzlies can still open up the difference in the first quarter of the game?

One point a minute can pull 12 points! What's more, the Kings won't let the Grizzlies pull away by a minute!

Cousins sends a baseline kick and he's going to have to score this time!

Last season, Cousins averaged 12.4 shots per game and played nearly 20 games off the bench. This year, Cousins' number of shots has risen to nearly 15 and he has started every game. The Kings completely untied Cousins' shackles and made him the team's offensive core.

So when Cousins asked for the ball, the rest of the Kings could barely refuse, including Evans.

Instead of hand-to-hand combat Gasol Jr. in the low post this time, Cousins opted to receive the ball in the middle distance. He has range and speed, and he has no problem playing Gasol Jr. at mid-range.

As a result, at the same time as Evans passed the ball to Cousins, Link abandoned Evans and grabbed it.

My cousin got her wish and held the ball in the middle distance, but she got caught in the bag!

"Double Bag Clip, Terek. Evans' poor shooting ability allows Link to boldly wrap up the Kings' interior! ”

"Damn, it's ruthless!" Cousins muttered, but if it were him, he would do the same to Link.

I was caught in the bag, and it stands to reason that I should pass the ball as soon as possible. But Cousins was caught between Link and Gasol Jr., who were good at defense, and there was really no way to pass. What's more, even with passing, Evans' shooting doesn't necessarily threaten the Grizzlies' basket.

Just when Cousins was still hesitating, Link slapped the basketball out of Cousins' hand!

The Kings offense has failed again!

This time, Link passed the ball to Guy, who was running at the front, and Guy rode a thousand and set the whole court on fire with a one-handed slam! 7-0, Keith. Smart shouts to stop the game!

"Well done boys, this is the game I want. Hold on to our defense and not let the Kings play with their vigor. As for the offensive end...... Have fun. "During the timeout, Hollins laid out almost nothing. So far, the Kings have not caused any trouble for the Grizzlies, and Hollins has no need to make adjustments.

After the timeout, the Kings made the first substitution. Fredette and Isaiah. Thomas came on and replaced the inactive Marcus. Thornton and Francisco. Garcia, aiming to score quickly!

Watching the "Strongest 175 on the Surface" play, Link finally felt that this game was finally a little interesting.

But Evans was embarrassed, Thomas came on the court, and he became the second position again! The Kings have been wavering in their position for Evans, and Evans doesn't know exactly what he's supposed to do.

After the game restarted, Thomas Jr.'s playmaking did make the Kings' offense a little more fluid. Fredette borrowed an off-ball cover to get out of the three-point line and catch the ball.

It's a pity that "Lonely" Fredette's shot ended up deviating from the basket. Rudy. Guy is tall and has long arms, and it is not too easy to guard against the young Fredette.

Kings continue to score!

After the Grizzlies played over, Xiaodley ate Thomas Jr. and scored a layup. Thomas Jr.'s height of 1.75 meters does suffer, not to mention that the Kings don't have a good enough defensive system to help Thomas Jr. cover up his shortcomings. 9-0, the Sacramento Kings are in dire straits!

"The Kings haven't opened yet, they've made a lot of changes to attack, but the Grizzlies defense is still a no-brainer. Next, who will take the hot potato? ”

At a glance, only the strongest 175 on the surface has not been attacked, so come on!

Thomas's strengths are clear, projection and breakout. Thomas Jr. is shooting 37.9 percent from three-point range this season, a team-high. His finishing rate under the basket is 64.8 percent, which is incredible for his height.

It's just that this time, Thomas Jr. faced Conley, who was good at defense, and it wasn't so easy for him to score.

Thomas Jr. flickered, but Conley didn't lose his position at all. He was like an old ball ruffian, watching Thomas maneuver like a tiger, and the result was still on the spot.

In the end, Thomas Jr. had to break through with Cousins' cover. But it's a pity that Randolph, the big black bear, killed Thomas Jr. when he made a layup, and even flew out with the ball.

Randolph's block collided with Thomas Jr. like a big truck crashing into a small electric donkey.

Since Randolph fanned the basketball first and then knocked down Thomas due to inertia, there was still no foul!

Cousins gritted his teeth, and today the light turned back and ran away!

※※※

At the end of the first quarter, Link organized the final attack. At this time, the fans at the scene were much quieter, not as excited as they were at the beginning.

Defending Link's became Travis. Otlow, a number three or four swingman who once buckled Yao Ming's head.

Outlaw is tall and has long arms and incredible bounce, and he is rumored to be able to touch the top edge of a rebound when he jumps.

However, Link quickly put an end to the rumor, as Link broke through with cover and met Otlow's high toss, who did not complete the block.

The basketball wiped the board into the net, and the rebound glowed red. At the end of the first quarter, Link looked up at the score and turned to leave.

34 to 21, the huge numbers are printed there, telling everyone that this crazy score is the truth!

The Grizzlies, who have always been known for their defense, actually scored 34 points in the first quarter of the game! In the first quarter of the game, he led the King by 13 points!

Cousins was depressed on the bench, believing it was impossible to be outscored by the Grizzlies by one point in one minute. Now, however, the Kings are more than 12 points behind!

Sure enough, FG can't stand randomly. Sometimes, the game doesn't have to be about the two sides attacking and defending, but it can really be one-sided!

But now the fans are most concerned about not the point difference, nor the highlights of the first quarter of the game.

The only thing they focused on was Link's scoring, and after the first quarter, counting the whistle layup just now, Link had already scored 12 points!

It's only six points away from Griffin's 18 points against the Raptors.

When Link was gone, Randolph deliberately made a bitter and hateful expression, "Look at you, is this a human thing?" You're going to be bored to overtake Griffin so easily. ”

Link spread his hands and didn't answer.

There's no way, the other party is really not powerful. It seems that the all-star starter is really dramatic.
