Roy. Hibbert covered his head with his hands, annoyed. Because, this is already his second foul in the first quarter of the game.

Normally, in order to control the number of fouls, the head coach will replace a player after two fouls in the first quarter of the game, so that the player does not get into foul trouble. For center players who need to guard the basket, special attention must be paid to fouls.

So while Link was on the free-throw line, Roy. Hibbert was also replaced by Jim. O'Brien replaces. This guy, who was nicknamed "Hei Yao Ming" by the fans, had been in good control after half a quarter of the game, but he didn't expect to end the game because of an "insignificant" draft loss.

Paul sitting on the bench. George really didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and on the one hand he was pleasantly surprised by Link's performance. But on the other hand, it was his own team that lost points. One thing George can be sure of though that Hibbert won't be the last player to suffer from Link.

Seeing Link pull up a layup on Hibbert's head and force a foul, the laughter in the stands stopped.

This guy who forgot to take off his training clothes and looked like a "scumbag" was wilder and more dangerous than everyone expected.

"Damn the draft!" Pacers coach Jim. O'Brien yelled and then let the old white center Jeff. Foster replaces Hibbert.

By the end of 2010, Yao Ming and O'Neill had both moved away from the ring. Both of these great beasts withdrew from the battle early due to injuries. The disappearance of the two of them also means that the last twilight of the center has passed. The ancient and glorious position of the center forward is about to usher in a long dark period.

During this period, the number of center players plummeted, and the number of excellent center forwards was one in a hundred. Therefore, the kind of thing where a team has several good centers is no longer available. In this league nowadays, a team has a working center, and it's already thankful.

Therefore, after Hibbert got off the court, the Pacers' inside gate disappeared in an instant. Although Foster, who came on as a substitute for Hibbert, is experienced, he is old after all, he can't run or jump high, and his height and arm span are not as high as Hibbert. Next, the Pacers' frame protection efficiency will definitely be much lower than just now.

In other words, the Grizzlies' offense will be easier from now on. And all of this is thanks to the brave Link.

It's as simple as hitting a three-pointer, but it has the potential to change the trend of the game!

"I didn't expect Link to complete such a beautiful attack." Webb still couldn't believe his eyes, and Link's composure as he dodged the block in the air contrasted sharply with the nervousness he had before he got on the court.

"Link is a solid scorer, otherwise he wouldn't have scored 52 points in a single game in the Development League. It's just that I didn't expect this guy to bring that composure to the NBA. ”

Van Gundy got serious, and he no longer looked at Link with worldly eyes. As the former coach of Yao Ming, Van Gundy is probably the commentator who knows the Asian players best. Most of these players may have a hard time surviving in the NBA, but there are always one or two amazing guys who can dominate the game!

Standing at the free throw line, the Pacers fans booed as hard as they could. If you hear such a boo in an ordinary draft, you probably start to tremble in your legs.

But for Link, the boos didn't affect his feel in the slightest. At the free-throw line, Link took a soft shot. Grant of this period. Hill still shoots more than 80 percent from the free-throw line. It's not as perverted as those who shoot 90% from the free-throw line, but it's pretty stable.

Hit a free throw and hit a three-point shot. Link's appearance helped the Grizzlies narrow the gap to just five points.

Sam. Young clenched his fists, and the better Link performed, the more pressure he put on. Although he was teammates with Link, he still prayed unkindly to Link not to do anything good. If he makes a mistake or gets blown up by Granger, that's even better.

It seems that Sam. Yang understands the truth of acquaintances and acquaintances better than George.

But it's a pity that Sam. Yang's hopes were dashed. Because in this round of defense, Link actually successfully intercepted the Pacers' pass!

The main controller of the Pacers is Darren from UCLA. Collison. As a star point guard in college, Collison has always been known for his scoring prowess.

Although he is the No. 1 position, his passing and organizational skills are not as good as his school teammate Zhu . Holiday This season, Collison is averaging 5.1 assists per game and committing 2.5 turnovers. In the same period, Holiday also averaged 2.5 turnovers per game, but 1.4 more assists than Collisson.

This time, Collison's pass was a little too casual. His lack of caution in passing the ball doesn't look like a point guard at all.

Collison thought that as long as he handed the ball to Granger, his job would be over. But in the NBA, casual passing can easily get wrong.

Own Grant. Link, an old ruffian with Hill's experience, easily judged Collisson's passing route, and Collison's pass was too casual, so the ball speed was not fast.

So, Link took a step just right, and then straightened his arm. Granger was ready to catch the ball, but Link's palm was between the basketball and Granger.

After Link's steal, he advanced with the momentum, and the Grizzlies, who have always been based on positional offense, played a fast break in a rare way!

Of course, with Link's current athleticism, he can't put on a good show. In the fast break, Link relies more on his overall situation than on his body.

After running across the halfway line, Link smashed the ball hard to the ground before he was caught up by Granger.

The basketball slammed into the ground and bounced off hard, unbiasedly, just in the hands of O.J. Mayo, who was plugged in.

"A long pass to the ground! Oh my God, this guy is teaching Darren. Is Collison a real pass!? Webb's mouth was wide open, and he had been with Mike. Bibby has worked with great point guards like "White Chocolate" Williams.

He is well aware that this kind of long-distance ball hitting the ball is very difficult to grasp. Even a pure point guard would not dare to pass it so easily.

But as a 2.03-meter-tall would-be striker, Link did not hesitate to send such a wonderful pass. The most important thing is that the accuracy of the ball passing is still very accurate, and when Link passes, Mayo is not in the receiving position.

But he had predicted in advance that his teammates would definitely get there.

For the first time today, Mayo got a two-handed dunk after receiving the basketball, and the Conseco arena fell silent.

While it was Mayo who ended the offense, the live camera gave Link a close-up.

I saw Randolph excitedly rush up and touch Link's head, in the United States, touching someone's head does not mean disrespect, but an intimate action between good friends.

In addition to Randolph, the Grizzlies were also jubilant on the bench. Except for Sam. Young and Guy, almost all of them waved towels for Link.

In the past, when Link played NBA2K games, he would assist his teammates to score after a steal, which was the highest increase in teammates' ratings. Now, it seems, it was.

However, Link quickly broke free from the arms of the "big black bear", not because he hated Randolph, but because he was afraid that his hair would become like that of some famous Argentine basketball player......

"3 points, there are only 3 points left between the two sides! A few rounds ago, the Pacers had a chance to extend the margin to double digits. But now, the Grizzlies have a chance to tie the score. And the only difference is that the Grizzlies have Link! ”

Van Gundy had become half a Link fan by this time, and he could see that Link was a person who knew how to play well.

"The Pacers are trying to attack again, and I don't know if this time, Granger will be able to break the magical aura of that Chinese Zero."

Of course Granger wants to break the halo, Rudy. Guy was won by him, but in the end he lost to a draft loser, where is such a thing?

This time, Collison's passing was much more cautious. Link didn't rush into robbery either, he knew very well that there was no difference between robbing and gambling. If you grab it, you will earn it, but if you can't grab it, you will be passed by others in one step.

Granger finally got his wish to catch the basketball, but he didn't notice that Link had put a hand behind him as he caught the ball and then gestured.

When Randolph saw Link's gesture, he immediately understood. This guy is a chicken thief!

Link's stance was to Granger's right, and he was confident with his arms outstretched.

Granger alternately dribbled with his left and right hands and motioned for his teammates to pull away. When space appears, Granger suddenly accelerates to Link's left!

Link has to admit that the gap between NBA-level players, athleticism and developmental league is really too big. Granger is also a big man of 2.03m, but he can run like a defender in the Development League.

Link was a little unable to keep up with him, but kept trying to stay on his side, continuing to force him to the left.

"Less wasted effort!" Granger let out a loud shout and jumped two steps to dunk. He didn't believe he would even be able to make a draft loss.

However, just as Granger's arm was about to exert force, a huge black shadow suddenly jumped out and slapped the basketball in Granger's hand.

"Boom!" When the huge black shadow landed, Granger felt the wooden floor tremble a little.

When I looked up, it was none other than Zach who blocked Granger. Randolph!

Don't look at Randolph who is fat and still plays the number four position, but as long as he has the opportunity, this guy will not miss! Closures are not Randolph's specialty, but this kind of closure sent to the door, Randolph is also willing to laugh.

"Defensive traps, Daniel. Granger fell into the Grizzlies' defensive trap. Link was smart enough to deliberately let Granger go to the left, knowing that Randolph would help him with everything. ”

While Granger was still stunned, Conley had already picked up the blocked basketball and started to push it.

Everyone thought he would break through to the basket by himself, but as soon as he ran to the three-point line, Conley distributed the ball to the bottom right corner. Only then did people realize that Link had quietly laid an ambush. And Granger, who was defending Link, was just past the halfway line at this time.

"A three-point shot, the Grizzlies haven't scored a three-point shot so far, can Link help the team open the scoring!?"

As soon as Van Gundy finished speaking, the basketball also fell into the net. Open three-pointers are as easy for Link as playing with a shooting machine.

Link raised his right hand high after scoring the goal, gestured three fingers, and patted the number 0 on his chest.

At the same time, the referee's whistle sounded. The Pacers were equalized by Jim. O'Brien had to call a halt to the game.

Just don't know, Jim. O'Brien doesn't remember what he said before the game.

"That Chinese guy won't have any impact on the game."
