Finding Link staring at him, Anthony, Davis frowned.

For some reason, a trace of fear grew in his heart.

Playing in the playoffs for the first time, Davis was a little nervous. What's more, he was very unlucky to play the playoffs for the first time and ran into the first ...... in the West

It is still the No. 1 in the West that can make the 67-win Warriors bow to the upper hand.

Davis shook his head and didn't continue to think about it.

Anyway, he didn't mainly play against Link today to deal with Tobias. Harris, he's still very confident.

Davis is well aware that he is the Pelicans' hope of victory, and he has no intention of evading responsibility.

He's going to do everything he can, and if he can get a win over the Grizzlies, he'll definitely make a name for himself and prove his worth as well.

Davis then avoided Link's gaze and instead focused on basketball.

Link smiled, Davis had already started to escape! His gaze has betrayed himself.

The referee tosses the basketball into the air and Gasol Jr. Asik got a basketball over his head.

In the stands, cheers flooded the entire arena. The sound of fans shouting and stomping their feet alone made Davis, who was experiencing the playoffs for the first time, have some heart palpitations.

Conley stopped outside the three-point line and calmly commanded the offense.

Anthony. Davis stood in front of Link, his long arms outstretched. Davis's official height is 2.08 meters, of course, in Link's opinion, there must be more than that. With an arm span of 2.27 meters, it is very superior.

He stood in front of Link like a two-seater.

Seeing Davis take the initiative to defend Link, the fans cheered even louder.

Davis is certainly not in line with Link on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, Pelicans coach Monty Brown. Williams Stern deliberately arranged for him to defend Link.

The biggest shortcoming of the Pelicans' lineup is that the No. 3 position is too short. Evans and Quincy. Both of Bombsett are less than 2 meters tall.

While height isn't everything to defense, Evans and Bombset aren't too strong defensive players either.

If the two of them go to defend Link...... Monty. Williams couldn't believe how serious the consequences were.

Therefore, he simply let Anthony . Davis defended Link, using a solid shield to block the opponent's sharpest spear.

Davis is undoubtedly an offensive and defensive star, and his excellent physical condition makes him always invincible on the defensive end.

Averaging 2.9 blocks and 1.5 steals per game is already telling. Davis has been the league's leading block leader for the second year in a row and is a good candidate to be named to the All-Defensive Team this year.

Letting Davis defend Link is the best way for the Pelicans to contain Link.

Link wasn't surprised to see that it was Davis defending him, but became excited.

Now it's okay, you don't need to look for it, the opponent will take the initiative to send it to the door!

Link ran to the bottom right corner and didn't hold the ball and went head-to-head with Davis. He is well aware that Davis is not only the Pelicans' strongest defensive player, but also the core of the Pelicans' defense.

As long as Davis is fished out of the restricted area, the quality of the Pelicans' defense will be greatly reduced.

After Link pulled Davis away, Conley got the ball into the hands of Gasol, who was sitting in the low post.

Faced with a one-on-one defence by Turkish Asik, Gasol had no trouble scoring goals.

Gasol leaned back, bumped past Asik and turned to hook his hand to score an easy goal.

2-0, Grizzlies scored first. And this crushing offensive shows the domineering spirit of the defending champion.

Although Gasol scored, Kevin . Harlan cheered for the pelicans instead.

"Anthony. Davis didn't let Link receive the ball this round, and his defensive range was wide enough even in front of Link! Keep it up, and the Pelicans will definitely get their chance! ”

"Poof!" Kevin. As soon as Harlan's voice fell, Bill. Simmons almost burst out laughing.

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just, I don't think Davis just stopped Link. Anyway, keep watching. ”

The Pelicans' first offense wasn't as gentle as the Grizzlies, and as soon as they came up, they were going to find Anthony. Davis this point!

Almost everyone thinks Davis' opponent today is Tobias. Harris, but when the Pelicans players were on the move, they found Harris in front of Bombset.

As for Link, he's staying around Davis.

Today, Link is the real No. 4 player for the Grizzlies!

"Link actually guarded in front of Davis, what a confidence! In terms of height, Link is at a complete disadvantage! I know Link used to play the number five position, but Anthony. Unlike other interior players, Davis' autonomous offensive ability is among the best in the league. ”

Kevin. Harlan is still interested in Anthony. Davis is full of confidence, and he believes that a player of Davis' type is the future of basketball to dominate.

Davis leaned on Link in the low post to ask for the ball, and as a pure No. 4, he believes he can dominate the low singles.

Link didn't go around the front, but stuck behind Davis.

Eric. Gordon hoisted the ball into the box and Davis grabbed it with a flick of his hand.

Davis's big hand allowed him to easily and steadily grasp the basketball, and he didn't have to be polite to Link, and the moment he got the ball, he leaned back sharply!

Anthony. Davis isn't a heavy interior lineman, but he's not weak either.

But Davis was so topped, but Link didn't take half a step back!

Anthony. Davis was deflated on Link, and he was clubbed in place in embarrassment. Interior players play low-post singles, and the most taboo is not moving.

"This ......" Kevin. Harlan really didn't expect that Link would be so easy to top Davis.

God knows how hard Link really is......

Davis was also a little surprised, is this the intensity of the playoff confrontation?

But he was always one of the best No. 4 positions in the league, and after finding that he couldn't carry Link, Davis immediately changed his strategy, leaning on Link and turning to break through.

He believes that with his bigger stride and better height and reach, he should be able to easily beat Link in his breakaway offense.

But Davis had just taken a step after turning his back, and before he could hit the frame, he found that the basketball was out of his control!

Davis looked down and saw that Link had cut the ball off cleanly.

"How could it be ......" Davis really didn't expect Link's reaction to be so fast, it stands to reason that the center of gravity of the top defenders is all thrown forward, and it is difficult for them to retreat in time.

In most games, Davis always makes a sharp turn when he meets an opponent who defends him.

In fact, Davis's judgment was not wrong, he was wrong in that he was wrong and treated Link as an ordinary person.

Link cut off the basketball and then quickly passed past Davis, holding it firmly in his hands.

Seeing Link finish himself out almost effortlessly, Davis's mentality collapsed......

In just one round, he seemed to see a huge gap between himself and Link.

Link stepped on the ball immediately after a steal and assisted Jimmy. Butler scored on a fast break.

The fans in the stands at the Federal Express Arena were still cheering. Simmons didn't think the scene was too surprising.

They had long expected such an outcome.

And that's just the beginning.

Anthony. Davis's nightmare tonight is still growing.

He's sure to be impressed with his first trip to the playoffs and one to remember for life!
