Grizzlies recruit Quincy. Bombset faces Conteni from beyond the three-point line. Lee, whose catch-and-shoot was heavily disrupted, hit the iron again.

After hearing the sound of iron on the bench, Link felt a little heartache, and the basket at the Federal Express Arena could have suffered a lot today.

"Still didn't score, the Rockets' tactics were too simple. It's okay to play a simple game, but you have to have the individual ability of a superstar. But rockets, obviously, do not occupy either. ”

After the basketball popped up, Gasol Jr. protected the basketball steadily. Damham Porter also averaged nearly 4 frontcourt rebounds per game at his peak, but now he is quite old.

This time, Gasol Jr. made a long pass directly from the back and sent the ball to Bombset, who had just finished defending.

Poundsset leaned on Contley. Lee straight to the basket. At this time, the Rockets' two interior linemen, Daimporter and Scola, have not yet run past half court, and the Rockets' basket is unguarded.

In the end, Bombesett completed the attack with a one-handed slam dunk, which made the fans in the stadium scream. And this is already Bombset's 6th point in this game. So far in the third quarter, Bombset made three of three shots.

From the first quarter of the game, from the starters to the bench, the Rockets routed across the board! At this point, the Grizzlies already had a 15-point lead over the Rockets. Link sat comfortably on the bench, and the game didn't even require him to exert much energy.

'Beautiful goal, the course of the game was definitely something that you didn't expect before. The Rockets were defenseless in front of the Grizzlies. Last season, they were able to play evenly matched. But now, the gap between the two teams is quite obvious. ”

The game was paused again, and the live camera deliberately gave McHale a close-up. I have to say that although the "refrigerator" wants to pretend to be calm, the embarrassment still can't be hidden.

At this time, the game has reached the third quarter, leaving fewer and fewer opportunities for the Rockets to turn the tables. Martin's shooting percentage was not good today, and the Rockets bench was blown up by the Grizzlies, McHale really doesn't know what to do, is it difficult to wear the jersey himself?

During this timeout, McHale emphasized that the team needed to shoot more three-pointers and protect rebounds on the defensive end. However, these two arrangements obviously can't make the Rockets turn the game around.

In the end, the Rockets were beaten 31-16 in the third quarter. With a 25-point deficit, they went into the fourth quarter.

With such a big point difference, the Rockets players have long lost their hearts. And what's even more frightening is that the Grizzlies aren't letting their guard down just because they're leading by 25 points.

In the fourth quarter, Link, Randolph and Guy were still strong, killing the Rockets' hopes of winning. 3 minutes and 53 seconds before the end of the game, Hollins waved his hand and replaced all the main players. Even Iranian center forward Haddadi has been given a chance to play.

There is no doubt that this means that the Grizzlies have lit their victory cigar!

The game got boring, but no Grizzlies players left the court early. After all, this is the Grizzlies' first big win of the season, and they can't get excited to be willing to leave the game early.

Now, Grizzlies fans are enjoying not the game itself, but the joy after the victory.

"It looks like the competition is over, and the Grizzlies have switched to an all-bench lineup. If nothing else, Link and the others will not play again for nearly four minutes of the game. "Hubby. Brown was in a good mood and was able to abuse the Rockets without Arthur and Conley, which really proves that the two sides are no longer on the same level.

"Link performed very well today, scoring 23 points, 4 assists and 8 rebounds in the first game of the new season. Don't forget, Link had 3 more steals in his account today! The young man's attainments on the defensive end can already be compared to the top stars. He's still all-round, and his progress is visible to the naked eye. I'm really looking forward to seeing him perform better this year. ”

In addition, Randolph remained strong, with 20 points, nine rebounds and three steals. Scola didn't get the slightest advantage over Randolph's head today, and Zach directly destroyed the Argentine. Guy scored 14 points and it looked like he's recovering well. Vasquith had 10 points and six assists and was impressive on his first start. Also, Bombset and Tony. Allen is also likely to score in double figures. ”

Brown smiled delightfully after reading the Grizzlies' stats. Unlike the Rockets, who relied on Martin's individual offense, everyone on the Grizzlies side was involved in the offense.

Link has matured, and no one would be surprised to see him chop down his all-around stats again.

Hubi. Brown can even look forward to seeing if Link can get 20+5+5 stats this season.

Last season, Link missed the opportunity to win 20+5+5 in his rookie season, but this year, Link has a good chance of achieving that achievement.

Don't look at 20+5+5 It doesn't seem to be that difficult, but in fact, there were only 6 players in the league who were able to play such statistics last season. And there are only 7 people in NBA history who can play this kind of data in their careers! These 7 are all legends!

Hubi. Brown believes Link can certainly be part of the 20+5+5 club this season.

Being able to witness the growth of a grizzly rookie with his own eyes, Hubi. Brown felt that this season was fun enough.

A few minutes later, the game was over. The score was fixed at 113-93, and the Grizzlies beat the Houston Rockets by 20 points at home and made a good start to the new season!

The Grizzlies shot a very high overall shooting percentage of 56.3% today, which can be said to fully reflect the defensive level of the Rockets.

On the other side, the Rockets have not scored more than 100 points, which undoubtedly highlights the Grizzlies' defensive skills.

After the game, countless reporters surrounded Link. Rudy. When Guy saw this scene, he couldn't help but sigh.

How long has it been? That undrafted pick has become Memphis' biggest star. Now, even he and Randolph have to step aside.

On the sidelines, Lionel. Hollins also let out a sigh of relief. With the loss of Arthur and Conley, he is still very worried about the team's form in recent games. But fortunately, Vasquith seems to be well suited to the starting role. Of course, the most important thing is that Link really played at an All-Star level.

When the Grizzlies gave Link more opportunities, Link didn't overwhelm him, but did better.

But Hollings is also well aware that this is not the real test. The next two games against the Thunder and Spurs were the real moments to test the Grizzlies and Link's quality.

As for the Houston Rockets? They're really bad this year!

※※※

At the same time as the Rockets defeated the Grizzlies, in the target center in Minneapolis, Timberwolves fans finally waited for the "Spanish Golden Boy" Ricky. Rubio's debut.

Rubio was drafted with the fifth overall pick in '09, but didn't officially land in the NBA until two years later.

In the first game of the NBA, Rubio delivered 6 points, 6 assists and 5 rebounds, which is worthy of the expectations of Timberwolves fans.

However, today in the target center, the protagonist is not Rubio, but Durant, who scored 33 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists!

Yesterday, the Thunder just finished their opening game with the Magic. And today, they rushed to Minneapolis in the snow and ice non-stop, and played such a wonderful game without fatigue.

Among them, Durant scored 30 points in both games! Durant's progress is obvious to all, although he is already a two-time scoring champion, everyone can obviously see that this is not Durant's ceiling!

People say that Durant may become the first player in the past 20 years to win the scoring title three times after Jordan!

Under Durant's brave play, the Timberwolves lost at home, and the Thunder won back-to-back two consecutive wins!

After the game, compared with Durant, the popularity of Rubio, Love and Beasley was really low.

"Kevin, do you think you can achieve the achievement of three consecutive scoring titles!?"

"What do you think of Ricky. Rubio, do you think his performance is up to what people expect from him? ”

"Kevin, are you aiming for a championship this season? This time, you're not going to be out of the first round again, are you? ”

The reporters asked Durant a lot of questions, and Durant patiently answered them one by one. But in the end, a reporter's question made Durant frown.

"Kevin, the next game is when the Thunder meet the Grizzlies again. In the playoffs last season, the Thunder were eliminated by the Grizzlies in the first round, and you once had a game where Link made 3 of 14 shots, which directly led to the end of the series. How would you respond to Grizzly Bear and Link again!? ”

This reporter's question succeeded in making Durant angry. Last season's 3-of-14 shooting, a round-up. This summer, Bryant's loss on the ball ...... All the grievances and unwillingness instantly surged into Durant's heart at this time. At the thought of Link, Durant gritted his teeth.

So, the black-bellied No. 35 approached the microphone and said in a low voice, "We're going to keep winning, we're going to destroy everything." ”
