Chapter 960 (1/2)

Link and Conley's bag played a role, Grizzlies' first defense let Lillard eat a big hole.

Facts have proved that the Grizzlies' defensive strategy is correct. They force Lillard into a defensive trap, link stands outside and will decisively trap Lillard.

In this way, link as a number four position, it is equivalent to give up the defensive rebounds of the fight, but also gave up on Aldrich strict defense. But in this way, Lillard must pass link's ten finger pass every attack.

In such a case, supplemented by Gasol's interior defense and rebounding control, can play a perfect effect.

Just the first round of successful defense, is proof.

The strategy itself is the right remedy, and link is one of the best defensive players in the league. Even, one can be removed.

Although link won the best defensive player award this year, it doesn't mean that his defensive ability has declined. On the contrary, his defense was as good as last season.

In addition to 2.1 steals and 1.8 blocks per game, link also limited his opponent's hit rate to only 43.5%.

Among them, the reasonable impact area is suppressed to 49.5%, the medium distance is suppressed to 35%, and the outer three-point line is suppressed to 29%.

In addition, this season, link in addition to frontal steals the opponent and cuts off the opponent's passing route these two aspects are still outstanding, but also many times in the opposite pass instantaneous use his light speed response to complete the snatch.

Link's defensive deterrence at this time is just like the deterrence of Goebel, Jordan and other players who are ready to enter the restricted area.

He stands at the top of the arc, presses the center of gravity once, and then forms an invisible gas field. Just like Pippen in those days, one person is an army, and another is the whole court press.

In addition to the one-to-one one defense, link has also done a good job in assisting defense and compressing space. He is always able to make up for the most correct position at the right time. I don't know how many times this season, the offensive players think he has successfully broken through the defense line, but the final wait is not the goal, but link's big risk or steals.

Most importantly, link has only 1.8 fouls per game this season! Beverly, green and others can not compare this point. He often doesn't have to foul to stop the other team from scoring.

According to the words of Chinese fans, ”link's defense will make you feel like you've been beaten up and the other side hasn't broken the law.”

This is link, whose defensive water is undoubtedly the top of the league's top. Indeed, the Spurs ”facial paralysis guy” is good enough, his voting rate is only less than two percentage points lower than link.

However, this does not mean that link's defensive ability has degenerated. At most, it can only be regarded as that the media have some aesthetic fatigue on the winner who won the prize and wanted to see a rookie win the prize. As a result, it still failed.

The perfect strategy, combined with the league's best defenders, is enough to keep Lillard's hands in check.

And that round, as link said, was just the beginning!

The second time the Blazers attack, this time, Lillard did not continue to call Aldrich pick and roll, he wanted to break his own singles.

But Conley's defense is not vegetarian, his biggest characteristic is not to make mistakes.

Therefore, it is not easy to defeat Conley in 1-on-1. You may not be robbed or blocked, but you can't find a gap in Conley either.

Moreover, link is always watching Lillard's movement. Although he didn't directly pack it up, he always gave Lillard the feeling that link was everywhere. It was better not to act rashly.

In the end, Lillard passed the ball to Nicolas Batum, a French team mate who was ambushed in the bottom corner.

Batum's performance in the playoffs is still good, the data are better than the regular season.

But battum's shot was not so easy against Tobias Harris, who was taller.

As soon as he was ready to take off, Harris raised his arm high and blocked it so that the French couldn't find the direction of the basket.

Although Batum can take out 33% of the three-point shooting rate in the playoffs, he is not yet ready to shoot against the defense.

In this way, Batum's shot hit the left side of the basket, the Blazers' attack failed again!

Since the beginning of the game, the Blazers have lost two consecutive rounds. Their magic aura seems to have been picked off by Grizzlies.

Link and Conley worked hand in hand to form a wall of iron, which made Lillard hit his head and blood.

Defense efficiency up, grizzlies attack is not vague.

Link used the speed advantage to cut into the forbidden area empty handed, Gasol in the middle of the back, hit a pass, then let the cut in link received the basketball.

At this time, Lopez was pulled to the middle distance by Gasol, Aldrich was pulled out of the three-point line by Harris, Batum couldn't catch up with link, and the restricted area of the Blazers was directly open.Easy, link will lay up successfully, complete the attack.

The Grizzlies cut the Trail Blazers' defense.

On the sidelines, trailblazers coach Terry Stotts was suddenly nervous.
