Reverse Growth Superstar

Russell Westbrook is the Rockets' second attack point. Although his three-point shooting rate has not been very good, but with his explosive impact, he once averaged 31.6 points per game.

However, Westbrook's inaccurate three-pointer, this season can be described as a breakthrough.

In the first two seasons with the Thunder, his three-pointer percentage was still around 30%.

This season is not good, shooting only 25% from three-pointers.

In this era, as a guard, only 25% of three-pointers are shot, which is simply amazing.

In contrast, Rondo, who claims to not shoot three-pointers, has shot 33% from three-pointers for five consecutive seasons.

As a center, Gasol has never shot less than 34% from three-pointers since the 16-17 season.

It can be seen that Westbrook's 25% is a hip three-pointer.

So, when Westbrook held the ball, Conley simply let him take a big step.

If Westbrook made a three-pointer, Link would admit it. But he dare to pack the votes, Westbrook can't kill people with a three-pointer.

Westbrook felt contemptuous when he saw Conley put himself so far.

But no way, he also knew he was not allowed. After coming to the Rockets this season, Westbrook has very much control over his three-pointers.

Westbrook averaged 5.6 three-pointers per game last season. This season this number has been reduced to 3.8.

If there is no three-pointer, it is the best choice to simply not vote.

So Westbrook called for a screen and prepared to break through.

But embarrassingly, Conley stood directly behind the cover, waiting for Westbrook to stand out.

To put it bluntly, it is the kind that allows you to cast at will, without interference at all!

"Fuck, I look down on Lao Tzu too!" Westbrook was completely angry now, and he changed his mind when he was about to break through the basket.

With Capela's screen, Westbrook did not hit the basket, but moved laterally to the right outside the three-point line.

Seeing Conley didn't force him to come up, Westbrook pulled up and shot!

"Westbrook made a three-pointer, can this goal be scored?"

As soon as Hubie Brown's voice fell, there was a crisp iron strike on the court.

"Hey!"

The basketball slammed heavily into the rim, and Westbrook's shots have always had no softness at all.

His three-point shooting percentage is indeed quite "stable", no surprises.

"Or not, the Grizzlies' defensive strategy is very clear. Whether it's against Harden or Westbrook, everyone on the Grizzlies knows what they should do."

In the beginning, the Grizzlies relied on defense to establish themselves in the league.

Although the entire league has been more offensive in recent years, and so have the Grizzlies, their traditions have not been lost.

The Grizzlies players may not all have super attacking ability, but they definitely have an excellent defensive attitude.

Therefore, players like Kyle Kuzma and Louis Williams who are strong and weak in attack and defense but have mixed up in the league are almost absent in the Grizzlies.

Westbrook missed a three-pointer, which made D'Antoni a little nervous.

Once, the Rockets were beaten by the Grizzlies to a 20-to-zero start. The Grizzlies defense has always been a nightmare for the Rockets.

D'Antoni was afraid that the Rockets would repeat the tragedy because of a poor three-pointer, so he shouted on the sidelines again.

Only this time, he let the players try to hit the basket.

Until now, D'Antoni is still thinking about offense.

After the Grizzlies attacked, Link found that Tucker was defending himself.

Also, with the Rockets' striker, Tucker has excellent defensive capabilities.

Once, the Houston Rockets' defense was among the top five in the league.

At that time, the Rockets had Tucker, Ariza and Barmott on the front line. They are both excellent 3D strikers, which fit the Rockets' system very well.

It was also that year that the Rockets and the Warriors made the tiebreaker. If it weren't for Paul's injury, God knows if the Rockets will eventually overturn the Warriors and reach the Western Conference Finals.

But now, only Tucker is the Rockets striker.

Danuel House? Basically, this guy is giving away his head. Confrontation, height, wingspan, awareness, enthusiasm... He has no advantage on the defensive end.

McClemo, sitting on the Rockets' bench, is a 50-step smile on the defensive end compared to House.

To put it bluntly, Tucker is now the only one to carry the Rockets forward. In addition to the striker, Tucker often has to top the fifth position...

He is definitely the hardest player on the Rockets.

Now, only Tucker can match up with Link. If House came to match Link, Link estimated that House would shut down and retire directly.

However, Tucker came to defend Link, and Jie Michael Green, who had just returned from injury, was liberated.

House looked at Green, who was strong, tall and wild, and swallowed. This guy does not seem to be easier to deal with than Link...

Link is not stupid, although he can also play Tucker, but it is still somewhat strenuous.

As a result, he passed the ball to Green who was on the left side of the three-point line.

Although Green is a 3D four, he also has a certain ability to hold the ball in singles.

Facing House, Green made a three-threat action and started directly!

His start speed was not fast, and House quickly moved across and blocked Green's breakthrough route.

However, Green still seemed to have encountered no obstacles, and easily entered the restricted area!

House's blocking is equivalent to no in front of Green, and the confrontation ability of the two sides is really too different.

In the end, Green raised his long arm and put the ball in lightly. House saw Green rising into the sky, and simply gave up blocking.

The jumping, height and wingspan of both sides are a bit far apart. Even if House takes off and blocks, he will only apply for a foul for himself.

Capella? Capela had long been nailed outside the three-point line by Jokic, and there was no time to shrink the frame.

In this way, the Grizzlies scored easily again. The Rockets' defense is fragile in front of the Grizzlies.

The offense that the Rockets are proud of was completely clamped by the Grizzlies' excellent defense.

The Houston Rockets are dead!

After Capella picked up the basketball on the ground, he made a quick baseline.

Harden received the ball and immediately rushed towards the Grizzlies halftime. The Rockets attempted a surprise attack!

The Rockets' strategy did work. Harden's sudden impact caused him to immediately cross the Grizzlies' unformed defense line and rush directly to the basket.

Except for Link, no one can keep up with Harden.

At this time, Link was diagonally in front of Harden. But he knew that with Harden's skillful "touch porcelain" attributes, if he directly confronted Harden in the air later, he would be fouled.

Against other people, fouls are also fouls. But Harden must not foul easily. After all, getting to the free throw line is one of Harden's main scoring methods.

There were only 0 and numerous fouls committed by Harden.

Link is still thinking about what to do, but Harden is already holding the basketball in both hands, ready to make a three-step layup.

At this moment, Link's inspiration flashed, and he suddenly waved back with his back facing Harden.

This seemingly casual looking back, he cut off the basketball in Harden's hands!

The falling basketball hit Harden's leg uncontrollably and was kicked out of the baseline by Harden.

Grizzlies have the ball right.

Harden:? ? ? ?

Why is this scene so familiar?

Isn't this the trick I used to use against DeRozan?

Link smiled triumphantly, it was Harden who demonstrated well, otherwise Link couldn't think of looking back and dig this move!

"Puff! What kind of cut is this! Unexpectedly, Link can actually reproduce Harden's careless cut to DeRozan. Hahahaha, it's a **** talent!" Hubby Brin couldn't help but Laughing, the Rockets' mentality was broken.

"Your attack almost worked, it's a pity. It doesn't matter, if you work harder, you will always get a point." After cutting off Harden's basketball, Link gave Harden a set of trash talk. Package.

Full service.

Of course, Harden's mentality collapsed even more.

He really didn't know what other way to score on Link.

So far ~www.wuxiaspot.com~The Houston Rockets' score is still 0. The high scores the fans were looking forward to did not appear.

On the court, only the Grizzlies played brilliantly on the defensive end.

Link said that it is a dead end to fight with Harden, but how to defend with the Rockets, the result is very different.

After that, the Rockets' several offenses were all resolved by the Grizzlies.

Harden and Westbrook seem to encounter defensive traps carefully prepared by the Grizzlies with every step they take.

Five minutes later, when Mike D'Antoni suspended the game again, the score had become 15-0.

The Houston Rockets, known for their offense, did not score a point within five minutes of the game!

When the Rockets came to the bench, Link had already won three steals and one block.

The first shooting guard who ruled the 10s?

In front of Link, there is no point.
