Bynum's dunk set Staples on fire. Hollins' worst fear before the game still happened, the black and white bears in front of the Lakers' championship twin towers, no longer dominant.

Bynum's brutal growth and Randolph's poor form have caused subtle changes in the interior strength of both sides.

At the moment, the Grizzlies have failed to score, while the Lakers have managed to score on two consecutive rounds. Hollins was in a hurry, but had to watch a few more rounds.

This time, the Grizzlies decided to attack from the outside. Link took advantage of the off-ball cover to shake off Kobe Bryant and cut into the box. Conley's pass arrived and Link had a chance to hit the frame.

"Basket, basket!" However, as soon as Link received the basketball, he heard Kobe shouting behind him. In the next second, Bynum and Gasol, the two elders, both appeared in front of Link's eyes!

"Damn! It's so fast! In a hurry, Link sent the ball to Randolph with precision, who shot from close range!

But Gasol is still quick to make up for it, and he has a height advantage.

Randolph's shot was badly disrupted and he stumbled out of the frame again!

Many people think that shooting is just a job in the hands, however, the most basic action of shooting is about the balance of the whole body. Randolph's knee discomfort made it difficult for him to exert force in his legs, which actually affected his shooting percentage very much.

Link jumped up to grab the board, only to find himself slammed. It was Bynum, who brutally knocked Link away in the air and protected the rebound again!

"Isn't that a foul!? Are you sure you know the rules of the game of basketball!? Hollins yelled at the referee off the court, but to no avail.

"The Lakers did have some physical contact, but that wasn't a foul." The referee responded, leaving Hollins speechless.

The Lakers continue to attack, and the Grizzlies still don't score!

Kobe Bryant finally played a block with Bynum this time, Link wanted to go around quickly, but Bynum's cover quality was very high, and Link was solidly blocked!

Bryant took the opportunity to break through and scored a layup under Randolph's interference.

6-0, the Los Angeles Lakers got off to a near-perfect start! Hollins stood on the sidelines angrily, and the Lakers were very arrogant today, and it was clear that they were making a big fuss about Randolph.

Randolph was rested in the last game, although the Grizzlies did not disclose the specific reason. But I believe that the members of the Lakers' coaching staff still guessed some.

In the last game, without Randolph, the Grizzlies were hammered by the Jazz's offensive twin towers and couldn't take care of themselves. Today, the Lakers may naturally share a wave of red.

Grizzlies until Rudy. It was only after Gay singled out Barnes that he finally broke the scoring drought. Mitchell at the scene also teased, "This kind of difficult moment, it depends on Guy, Link has obviously been beaten by Kobe!" ”

The debate over who exactly is the Grizzlies outside core between Gay and Link has never stopped this season. Although on the team, Link and Guy get along quite well. It's not friends, but it's not hostile either. But to outsiders, Link and Guy have a certain competitive relationship.

Now that Guy has stepped up to help the Grizzlies break the scoring drought, it naturally gives him the upper hand in this argument.

Guy's goal didn't quite solve the problem, though. Because the next round, the Lakers let Gasol play.

This time, there were no bells and whistles, and Kobe Bryant didn't take the ball alone. Paul. Gasol leaned directly on Randolph and began to ask for the ball, and the Lakers wanted to play Randolph, which has reached the point where they don't have to hide it at all!

"Day, all come to Lao Tzu!" Randolph roared in his heart, being used as an "ATM" by others, of course Randolph was very unhappy.

The big black bear is full of momentum, but his knees are really not good. Gasol took two steps back, and Randolph couldn't stand it. In the end, the 2.13m Gasol rolled over and hooked his hand, and Randolph couldn't wait for such a shot.

"Brush!" Gasol's scoring ability is indeed a few notches better than his younger brother Mark, his hook hand is soft into the net, and Randolph is beaten again!

"8 to 2, Paul. Gasol's goal gave the Lakers a further cement. The Lakers are very strong today, and since Bynum returned, the Lakers seem to be ready to get on the right track! ”

"Pause, pause!" Hollins shook his head and had to call a halt to the game. The buzzer sounded loudly, and the battle between the two sides was temporarily stopped.

Kobe Bryant looked at Link before he got off the court, and after a few rounds today, Link didn't even get a single statistic. There is no doubt that Kobe's restriction on Link has been quite successful.

Come to the showdown on Sunday, Kobe Bryant didn't joke with Link!

"Damn, if I could put a bandage or a brace on, it would have been better!" Randolph began to complain about himself as soon as he got off the court, and he knew very well that he was completely targeted.

"Take a break, Zack, calm down." Hollins soothed Randolph for a moment, then turned to look at the end of the bench, the guy with a small sarcoma on his head.

"Marris, come here! I want you to replace Zach and open up space for Link and Guy on the offensive end! "Hollins finally made the decision, and the time to test the Grizzlies' bench depth has come!

Speights was a little surprised, as he had never played so early this season. Soon, though, he took off his training uniform and trotted all the way to Hollins.

Speights is not tall, but he is very big. Like "Big Baby" Davis, they all feel a little chubby.

But don't be fooled by his size, Speights has the advantage of moving fast on the basketball court.

"Link, Rudy, I need you guys to attack! Use your firepower against the Lakers' defense! I need you two to work together more often, pass each other more, and make the Lakers wonder which of you is going to shoot! ”

Listening to Hollins' arrangement, Link and Guy glanced at each other and nodded slightly.

Attacking with Guy? Link hadn't really tried it before.

"As for you Speights, like I said, open up the space, open up the space with your hard three-point shot. As long as you can shoot one, the Lakers will be afraid of you! I don't want to see the Lakers twin towers piled under the basket, you know!? ”

"Understood, leave it to me. Defensively, I'll take care of Espanyol as well. Speights replied confidently.

"It's good, I know we're in trouble, but that's not the biggest trouble we've ever had. It's only six points, and you should give me an equalizer soon, right? ”

"Yes!" The grizzly bears will answer in unison, and at the same time, the buzzer beeps again, and the timeout is over!

Link was about to play, but was grabbed by Randolph on the bench, "Leave it to you and Rudy, let the Los Angeles people see our gorgeous offense." ”

"Rest assured, Zach. When your knees are good, you can go on the court again. Until then, you don't have to worry about anything! Link smiled and stepped onto the court.

It didn't take long for people to find out that the Grizzlies had made a substitution. Maris. Speights, this chubby interior so many Los Angeles fans can't even name him. After all, Speights has never been a star.

Since college, Speights has been an inconspicuous "small role". At the University of Florida, Sperts had two interior players next to him, Noah and Horford, which led to him not playing much at all. After Noah and Horford participated in the draft, Speights has also been living under the aura of the two.

Compared with those two seniors, Speights's statistics and performance are naturally not amazing, so Speights has not attracted much attention.

But Link is well aware that Speights is the kind of player who doesn't care about stats and fame, but always has a passion for the game. The Lakers' champion Twin Towers may really be turned upside down by this little-known guy.

But until then, Link has one more thing to do – to play with Guy on the offensive end.

Gay remained a core scorer until this season, when he was reduced to the third scorer. In the case of a lot of ball possession, there are few assists, so it can be said that there are almost no passes!

Westbrook is a man of the iron eye, averaging eight assists per game. After all, the ball is in his hands most of the time, and even if he is not good at organizing, he can easily put up such assist statistics. And Gay, with a lot of ball-bearing, only averages 2 assists per game, which shows how "core" his style is.

Guy usually stepped up and used his individual skills to solve problems when Link and Randolph didn't have a chance. But at this time, Hollins asks Link and Guy to cooperate! Link was looking forward to it, because after a year with the Grizzlies, he didn't even know what it was like to work with Gay.

Don't think it's an exaggeration, players with a core style of play rarely cooperate with their teammates. Later, Nick. Young even set a record for the first assist on Kobe Bryant's team in two and a half years......

On his first offense after returning from a timeout, Conley gave the ball to Link early. Link faced Kobe Bryant and observed the situation on the court.

The Champion Twin Towers remain near the penalty area, and once they break through, they will fall into a defensive trap. Guy is trying to get rid of it, but Matt. Barnes's "mad dog" clung to Guy.

Link then called Speights for cover, and then broke through immediately!

It's indisputable that Speights is a villain. On the basketball court, Speights has always had a reputation for roughness. So even with the pick-and-roll, Speights put a lot of pressure on Kobe.

By the time Bryant shook off Speights and followed, Link had already burst into the box.

At the same time, Gasol Jr. followed to the basket and he was still creating a defensive trap for Link.

But Link won't be fooled, he passes the ball back to the outside. One step inside the three-point line, Speights catches the ball and shoots!

"Gasol ignored Speights, it's going to cost him!" Kevin. As soon as Haaland finished speaking, the sound of the Nets tumbling came to his ears.

Speights hit a mid-range shot to make it 4-8 for the Grizzlies to recover some of the scores. And Link's data table is no longer 0!

Sure enough, as long as there is a little opportunity, the possibilities can be expanded!

"Thanks buddy!" Speights was in a good mood after the goal and pointed at Link with a smile.

Link nodded slightly, the significance of this mid-shot shot is not as simple as two points. After this shot, Gasol knew that Speights was shooting well, and he would never let him go again.

This means that the Lakers' restricted area will have one less tower to support!

In this way....... Link looked at the number 8 next to him, it was their showtime!
