In the sixth minute of the first quarter, the Atlanta Hawks still trailed the Grizzlies by six points.

Since being beaten 6-0 by the Grizzlies at the beginning, the Hawks have fallen into a passive situation.

At first glance, the six-point difference is not a big deal, and it is only a matter of two threes.

But when you really want to chase points on the Grizzlies, you know how difficult it is.

For Budenhozer and the Eagles, it was perhaps the toughest six points they ever chased.

At this point, the game goes into a timeout.

Joggle took the tactical board and glanced meaningfully at Link.

Link immediately became excited, a new challenge has finally arrived!

"Hassan, good play, then you have a few minutes of rest. Link, after the timeout is over, you go up to the number five. Just hold on for about three minutes, and I'll take you to rest. ”

Joggle finally started to implement his plan, and at this point, not only Link, but everyone on the Grizzlies team was inexplicably excited.

The Grizzlies' plan was this, using Link to play the No. 5 position for a few minutes. Wait for Whiteside to rest for a few minutes, and then let Whiteside replace Link and continue playing, and then Link will start to rest completely.

In this way, the Grizzlies will not have a "disconnection" at the No. 5 position.

Whether it's Link or Whiteside, in short, the Grizzlies will always have someone at the No. 5 position. In addition, it can also ensure that the two of them have a break.

But the Grizzlies' plan is not just as simple as letting Link play the No. 5 position.

When Link also plays as the No. 5 position, the Grizzlies' entire style of play will change!

So, not just Link, but all the Grizzlies players are looking forward to the next game.

If they can't fight, they will become the laughing stock of the whole world.

But if it happens, everyone believes that it will be a great sensation!

The timeout was over quickly, and Joggle looked at everything and waved his hand.

Quinn. Snyder was a little nervous because what the Grizzlies were doing right now was just too unconventional.

But Jogger disagreed, as long as he could win, who would have to follow the rules?

The game restarted, and the Hawks were still six points behind the Grizzlies. This is not a big gap, and the eagle can't get over it, as if he has fallen into a spell. Wait a minute...... The Grizzlies used Andre on their side. Iguodala replaces Hassan. Whiteside! Their center is off the court, and this is the Atlanta Eagles' chance! ”

Mike. When Brin found out that the Grizzlies were changing, he couldn't help but feel nervous.

Now the Grizzlies are a pure interior line on Whiteside, so even if Joggle has the ability to go through the sky, it is impossible to change the Grizzlies' interior disadvantage.

Budenhozer has finally come to his senses, and after being suppressed for so long, it's finally time to fight back!

Now, the Grizzlies' on-court lineup has changed to Conley, Butler, Link, Iguodala and Harris.

Everyone expected Harris to continue to play at the No. 5 position as he did in the last game, with Iguodala at the No. 4 position.

The Grizzlies' lineup is equivalent to one guard with four forwards, which is not too bizarre.

"This lineup...... It's just too small. None of the five people were purely inside, and I have to say that this was a very bold attempt. ”

Mike. Brin pursed his lips as well, and it looked like it would be time for the eagles to raise their eyebrows.

"Attack the inside, attack the inside!" Budenhozer yelled at his players from the sidelines, and he regained the confidence he had at the start of the game.

Horford is also full of confidence, and in the past six minutes, he has been suppressed by Whiteside enough.

Now, I can finally show off my skills in the low position!

Just a Tobias. Harris, don't be afraid.

The Hawks started to attack, Conley stuck to Teague and Butler was still defending Korver.

These two points have not changed compared to just now, but the next alignment surprised Budenholzer and everyone in the audience.

Iguodala ran in front of Carol, Tobias. Harris went to defend Millsap, who was not as tall as him.

Iguodala and Harris are not as one might expect, with one playing four and one playing five.

When Horford sank inside, he found that it was Link who was defending him!

Everyone's eyes widened, including Mike, who has always been the first to accurately analyze the situation on the field. Brin and Hubbie. Brown.

The two experienced commentators were stunned for a few seconds before they said in surprise, "The Grizzlies actually let Link play the No. 5 position!?" ”

2.03m center, 2.06m power forward...... This is undoubtedly a very small lineup!

Link immediately pressed against Horford's back and didn't let him press back easily.

Horford was also a little surprised, but now is not the time to be surprised. He struggled to get the position, but found that it was not easy to wrestle with Link.

It's not much easier to push inside than it is to play against Whiteside.

Before Horford could secure his position, Teague sent the ball to Horford.

Horford received the ball with his back in the middle distance and confronted Link.

No. 5 vs. No. 3, everyone knows it's a big misalignment.

But for some reason, everyone seems to feel that Horford doesn't have much of an advantage......

Link resisted Horford hard, and had to admit that it was really not a good experience to suddenly run to the inside hand-to-hand fight.

After a few more rounds like this, Link reckons that he won't have much strength on the offensive end.

In fact, this is also the reason why there are not many short inner lines. It's not that they can't withstand it, it's that the consumption is too great.

Unless it's like "Big Ben" Ben. Wallace's pure interior play, otherwise, he generally won't let the little man go into hand-to-hand combat.

Think about it, putting James in the No. 5 position, and as a result, he is weak on offense because of his lack of energy, which is completely more than worth the loss.

Therefore, even in the period when the Heat's interior reserves are at their weakest, Spoelstra will not put James at the No. 5 position to fight hand-to-hand.

But today Link doesn't have to worry about that, because he won't be playing the number five position for too long. It only takes a few rounds to complete the mission.

Horford continued to squeeze Link with his back, but the advance was almost negligible.

Straight over jumper? If it was Yao Ming who was now opposite Link, then he could indeed do that.

Although Link was right behind him, with Yao Ming's height, Link couldn't interfere at all.

But Horford is not Yao Ming, he is a short center, an official height of 2.08 meters, and the actual height is about 2.06 meters.

If he rolls over and jumps directly, what awaits him is not only interference, but may even be blocked directly!

Horford is embarrassed, in this set of dislocations, he doesn't seem to find the slightest advantage!

In the end, Horford chose to turn his back and break through, hoping to rely on a larger tonnage to force Link to break through the basket.

But as soon as Horford dribbled and turned, he found that the basketball was out of his hands!

Horford's dribbling is good in the range of the five, but in Link's eyes...... Forget it.

Link made the steal easily, and the Hawks didn't get the expected inside advantage!

Horford was completely defeated against Link, and he was even a little helpless.

Budenhozer's expression was very exciting, and a second ago, he was obviously full of confidence. But in the next second, he immediately frowned and looked very shocked.

Horford didn't impress Link? Are you kidding!?

Link didn't joke with Budenhozer, but passed the ball the moment he made a steal.

The Grizzlies' small roster means extremely mobile. The moment Link completed the steal, the Grizzlies all four rushed to the frontcourt.

With Link playing the No. 5 position, the Grizzlies have changed their entire offensive style!

Iguodala receives a pass from Link and bursts forward with the ball.

The Eagles' defense shrank instantly, but Iguodala gave the ball to Tobias, who was ambushed in the bottom corner. Harris in his hands.

"Harris is already in place, the Grizzlies are very fast offensively, and their speed is incredible!"

Hubi. Brown felt that his commentary couldn't keep up with the Grizzlies' counterattack, and as soon as he finished speaking, Harris took a shot and hit the open shot.

The difference became 9 points, and the time for the eagles has still not come!

Link clapped hard and cheered up all his teammates. This counterattack speed is really enjoyable.

For some reason, Link suddenly had the feeling that he was playing for the Warriors......

Budenholzer swallowed.

The Eagles have beaten many teams with superstars, but Link is very different from other superstars.
