Reverse Growth Superstar
: Sixty: Patience of role players
Super long-range three-pointers, clever rim fakes, aggressive rebounding fights, and amazing passes.
Link changed the fate of the Grizzlies with a series of brilliant performances. Without Rudy Gay, the Grizzlies were able to play the Jazz with a 7-0 start because of Link.
The Jazz suspended. The Russian Andrei Kirilenko is undoubtedly the most embarrassing player right now. Before the game, he vowed to ensure that the team would not worry about the opponent's third position. But now, the Grizzlies' number three has become the most annoying point.
Jerry Sloan glanced at Kirilenko, unable to get angry. Kirilenko has indeed worked very hard, but this is already the first day of 2011, which is no longer his heyday.
At least compared with Deron Williams, Kirilenko’s attitude is correct. However, he incorrectly assessed the strength of himself and his opponent.
Sloan patted Kirilenko on the shoulder, and said nothing. Then, he turned to look at the white guy on the bench. It's time for young people to solve their problems.
"Gordon, get ready to play." Old Marshal Sloan waved.

"The Utah Jazz's start was by no means the result that Old Coach Sloan wanted. It stands to reason that they should take advantage of Rudy Gay's absence. But unfortunately, Link perfectly filled the vacancy left by Gay, even In some ways it is better than Gay."
"Yes, but the Jazz's personnel reserve in the third position is not weak. Don't forget, they also have this year's No. 9 rookie Gordon Hayward. I believe that a younger third position. , Is the best candidate for the Jazz to contain Link."
During the timeout, both commentators predicted that Hayward would appear. In recent games, Hayward's playing time has been increasing. Although Kirilenko is the starter, Hayward has played longer than Kirilenko.
As one of the most popular NCAA players last year, Hayward has always been high expectations. Although he hasn't shown his explosive talent yet, his steady shooting and excellent defense have earned Hayward some praise.
Sure enough, Kirilenko sat on the bench in embarrassment after returning from the pause. Gordon Hayward went into battle. This guy who looked like a little otaku, led the Butler University Bulldogs to almost win the NCAA championship last season!
You know, Butler University is not a famous basketball school. This shows how much Hayward's ability has exploded in the university.
"Another lottery show, starting with Paul George. This is the second lottery player in the same position that Link has met. This may be the first time in NBA history that there is a losing draft that can make all lottery shows. All feel crisis."
Steve Kerr got serious, Link guy, can he continue his counterattack?
The first attack after coming back from a pause, Link felt a completely different pressure. Although Hayward's attack power during this period was not very strong, his attack methods were much richer than Kirilenko.
Kirilenko has always been inaccurate with three-pointers. Never in his career has he averaged more than one three-pointer per game. But Hayward is different. Three-pointers are one of his main scoring methods. In addition to three-pointers, his breakthrough offense is also very powerful.
Don't look at Hayward's weak look, he is white again. However, his confrontation ability is not weak at all.
This time, Deron Williams' singles finally allowed the Jazz to break the scoring shortage. Although Hayward didn't make a shot, Link found that he was nailed to the three-point line and it was difficult to help defend others.
After a Grizzlies offense, Hayward's role was really highlighted. Just after halftime, Link was tightly defended by Hayward. There is a fire in Hayward's heart. He did not regard Link as a draft pick, but regarded him as one of the best rookies of the year.
A lottery show, but I don’t want to lose to anyone in a duel between rookies. Hayward is no exception, and his way to defeat Link is to start from defense.
Hayward's defense is not only physical, but also very smart. Link would make a judgment in advance in which direction he wanted to run.
Looking at his obedient "otaku face", Link really didn't expect this guy to be so difficult. He knew that Hayward would become an All-Star in the future, but he did not expect Hayward to show a lot of talent during his rookie season.
But Link didn't panic, but rather triumphant. Because he was ignored from the beginning and has become valued by the Jazz.
And let the Jazz defense pay attention to himself, in fact, Link has completed his task.
Mike Conley glanced at Hayward, who was pinned by Link, and then dropped the ball into the penalty area. On the left side of the penalty area, Zach Randolph was already in a good position.
Playing hard inside, this is Hollins' real offensive method today. The reason Link was able to attack at the beginning was to attract the opponent's defensive attention.
The two insiders of the Jazz have their own problems. Although Millsap is active defensively, his height is only the same as Link, and Randolph is also a little struggling.
Al Jefferson also faces the problem of height loss. What's more terrible is that Jefferson's defensive skills and enthusiasm are not as good as Millsap.
The initial strategy of the Jazz was to double-team the black and white bears, but Link's strong play disrupted Sloan's tactics.
Randolph sat back abruptly after receiving the basketball, then rolled over and shot a jumper. Before Millsap adjusted his center of gravity, Randolph had already scored.
9 to 2, the Jazz's situation is still awkward.
After , Marc Gasol also showed his magic. His low post offensive skills are very comprehensive, and Al Jefferson has no way to defend Gasol except for being tough.
The Spaniard's basket hook hit again easily, 11 to 2, Sloan found that his timeout and substitutions did not play any role at all. He contained a losing pick, but this is not something to celebrate.
In the first quarter, under Randolph and Gasol, the Jazz quickly fell behind. Had it not been for Deron and Millsap's awakening, the Jazz might have fallen behind by double digits in the first quarter.
With an 8-point difference, the Grizzlies ended the 12-minute battle in the first quarter. Gasol and Randolph were undoubtedly the best Grizzlies players in the first quarter, but during the break, Hollins praised Link.
"You did a very good job. A few goals in the opening deterred each other. Otherwise, Zach and Mark would not be able to get so many low-post singles opportunities. The second quarter will continue. I believe Sloan will not be able to bear it sooner or later. Stay double-teamed. Then, that's your chance!"
Linke nodded silently. Sometimes the role of a player on the court is not reflected in the score.
So, O.J. Mayo and Rudy Gay sometimes make waves in order to score high, but they lose their value.
At the beginning of the second quarter, the Jazz really doubled. But not to double-team the three, but to make Millsap and Al Jefferson defend each other.
As a result, Randolph and Gasol used their soft mid-range touch to severely punish the Jazz's defense.
After that, the game entered the mode of single defense being exploded and assisting defense being shot. The Jazz are very passive. They never imagined that they would fall into a hard fight because of a Memphis Grizzlies.
The more chaotic the game situation, the more Deron does not listen to commands. In the view of Deron now, all the Jazz's badness is due to Sloan's tactical arrangements.
At the end of the half game, the Jazz were already 12 points behind. Randolph and Gasol scored 15 points and 13 points each in the half, and the Jazz's interior was penetrated.
At this time, all the media and narrators are discussing black and white bears. As for the duel between Link and Hayward, it was forgotten. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
Because of the second quarter, neither rookie had any chance. In the second quarter, Link was about to take 2 shots and scored 2 points. It seemed to disappear completely after the start of the first quarter.
But Link did not relax his vigilance, a game of 48 minutes, more than 10 players. Time is limited and the number of shots is limited. As a substitute, it is impossible to be on oneself every time a mobile phone is released. He must continue to be patient and do his own job well. Once the opportunity comes, seize it!
As a role player, you must have a right attitude. Many players who dominate in the NCAA have become cancerous in the NBA because they are used to being the core and suddenly have no right to shoot. They play uncomfortably. So, rushed to shoot, and then evolved into a wave cast.
Today is his first start. Link's small goal is to make his score exceed 20. Although he only scored 7 points in the past half of the game, Link still believes that he still has a chance to reach this milestone. As long as you are patient enough, chances are definitely there.
Speaking of which, as a No. 9 rookie, Hayward hasn't scored more than 20 in this season.
After the half-time, Hayward sat in the locker room panting. After a quarter and a half against that No. 0, he only allowed the opponent to score 2 points. Hayward thought he did a good job.
Jerry Sloan also thinks that the losing pick has been controlled. Looking at the team's dilemma on the inside defense in the first half, Sloan made a decision, "Gordon, in the second half, you start double-teaming inside. If they Pass the ball to position 3. You must get back to position quickly."
The old coach decided to let Hayward perform a more difficult defensive task.
They don't know yet, they are scoring high scores for Link and creating conditions.
