1090: Rebounding won't work here

Westbrook's first two rounds were undoubtedly a disaster.

After being stolen, I was exposed again and again. If I were playing games, a blue label with a cold feel would definitely appear.

And in real-life competitions, it is not just as simple as cool touch.

Now, Westbrook still has huge psychological pressure.

Link's defense broke all Westbrook's plans. He was good at impact and breakthrough passes, but he could not play his advantage at this time.

Westbrook's only choice now is to force Link to change positions by following Harden and the Warriors players!

Only by sending Link away can he have a little chance of winning.

Although this is somewhat of an escape, for now, this is the wisest way.

So in the next attack, Robertson played a pick-and-roll with Westbrook near the midfield line, forcing Link and Conley to switch positions.

The "Turtle" plan was successful, and Conley had to face Westbrook Thunder No. 0 and suddenly felt confident. He wanted to return all the afflictions left by the previous two rounds!

"I didn't expect that Russell chose to change positions so early. It seems that he also knows that it is not a solution to continue playing like this with Link." Huby Brown was a little disappointed. He thought that this guy who averaged triple-double could be more backbone.

Of course, it is understandable to choose to attack with a more efficient method.

Westbrook signaled everyone to pull it apart, and Conley's defense was of course not bad. But just like Thompson, it was just not bad, but it couldn't curb the people in the MVP rankings.

After his teammates pulled the space apart, Westbrook made a simple forward direction change and suddenly made a breakthrough.

For Conley, Westbrook's first step was a bit difficult to deal with.

Moreover, his increasingly terrifying ability to confront Conley was at a disadvantage.

Conley was not actually deceived by Westbrook's front-facing change, and he made the correct prediction immediately.

But under the impact of Westbrook's speed and strong body, Conley was instantly surpassed most of his body.

Westbrook finally completed the breakthrough happily, and he had been waiting for this moment for too long.

But at this moment, Gasol and Jokic both defended themselves at the basket.

If Westbrook had followed his previous temper, he wouldn't bother to care if there was anyone at the basket, so he would just be reckless.

But now, Westbrook must be cautious when he has missed twice in a row.

He can't fail anymore. If he fails to attack after supporting Link, it will be a huge blow to morale.

Not only his own morale, but also his teammates.

Therefore, Westbrook, who has always been strong, chose to pass the ball carefully this time!

Jokic and Gasol came in to make up for defense, which meant that Adams and Sabonis had a chance.

Although first-year Sabonis averaged only 6 points per game this season, he undoubtedly inherited the soft touch of his father Avedas Sabonis and did a pretty good job in shooting.

Although it is a fourth position, Sabonis's three-pointer is also quite threatening. The middle distance is even more stable.

Westbrook then shook his wrist and immediately passed the ball to Sabonis Jr.! At this time, he was completely empty by Jokic.

If this assist is done, the situation will change!

I have to say that Westbrook's passing accuracy is still very high. Otherwise, even if this assist is not as good as a double digit per game, it will not be possible to win the average assist.

The basketball flew quickly towards Sabonis, and Sabonis was ready to catch the ball and shoot.

However, just as Sabonis was about to receive the basketball, a big hand suddenly crossed between him and the basketball.

Sabonis and Westbrook both widened their eyes. They had never thought about the possibility of a mistake!

"Link cut off the pass route, he completed the steal! Westbrook made another mistake, and he missed the offensive end for the third time in a row!"

Westbrook was completely autistic and thought it would be safe to send Link away. But it turned out that he was very wrong!

Even if Link was sent away, his shadow covered the entire half.

And Westbrook's assists are also very simple, basically breaking through and passing the ball.

At this point, it is very different from Paul and others who are truly able to organize the attack.

Therefore, it is actually very simple to judge the passing route of the "Turtle".

Just look at who is vacant and whose shots are most threatened by the vacant, and that is one shot that breaks and one is accurate.

In fact, many NBA-level players can judge Westbrook's simple and rough pass path, but their ** can't keep up with their brains and pass speed.

But Link's body, which is more top-notch than Grant Hill at his peak, does not have this problem.

Westbrook was a sluggish three consecutive rounds on the offensive end, which was a fatal blow to the Thunder's morale.

Fortunately, the Thunder retreated very quickly this time, and the Grizzlies did not easily fight back.

Both sides were forced into positional battles, and Robertson defended Link very closely.

If Rachel and Robertson had not had any intersection in this history, Link might have thought that Robertson worked so hard because he regarded himself as his rival in love.

After a series of organization, the basketball was eventually beaten to Wade. He ran out of an open position and got a three-point shot.

But this shot may be because the player at the beginning was not yet hot, and the "Jinger" didn't feel very good.

The basketball hit the basket's neck and then popped up high.

Steven Adams immediately stuck Gasol, and Sabonis little resisted Jokic.

But strangely, neither of the two men had the intention of jumping up and grabbing the board. There was no doubt that they were waiting for Westbrook to come in and grab the ready-made ones.

Until now, Westbrook's data in addition to making mistakes is still 0. This rebound is a good opportunity for Westbrook to break the data panic.

Westbrook rushed toward the basket, and he jumped hard, stretched out his arms, ready to take off the basketball.

The "Turnamental Turtle" has already thought about it, and the moment he takes the basketball down, he will accelerate the counterattack!

Anyway, he must break the scoring drought!

His body was rising rapidly in the air, and the basketball was close at hand.

But unexpectedly, the other hand suddenly appeared in Westbrook's field of vision.

The big hand caught the basketball in one step before Westbrook and dunked the pop-up basketball into the frame directly in the air.

"boom!"

The rebound sank, demonstrating the power of this dunk.

Link hung on the basket with one hand, beside him was Westbrook who fell to the ground with empty hands.

The trick of brushing the rebounds is not feasible for the Grizzlies!

Either the big guys quickly close the board, or they can’t even get any of them!

Get the seat and wait for Westbrook to eat ready-made ones? Sorry, Federal Express Arena does not have this rule.

"The perfect one-handed patch, Link snatched the rebound from Westbrook's head. So far, Link's performance is perfect. And Westbrook... it's really hard to describe."

After playing here, Thunder coach Billy Donovan had to call a timeout.

Now it is no longer a question of whether Westbrook is embarrassed or not, but the entire Thunder is in crisis.

Judging from the performance of these few rounds, the gap between Westbrook and Link is larger than people think!

If the situation continues like this now... the Westbrook MVP rankings will probably not be able to sit for long.

After the game was suspended, Westbrook walked off the court with a dark face.

But at this time, Ines Kante was very angry.

He won't let anyone bully the Thunder, and when he comes on the court, he will let Link understand this.

"Link, be careful of Kanter later. That guy is very active. If he comes on the court, you must protect yourself. Also, don't be angry with him. If there is a conflict, you will be fooled."

As soon as Link got off the game, Jogel reminded him that Kant may not be very strong, but he is definitely a good player in doing "dirty work".

Link nodded, "Don't worry, whoever or I will end up first, may I say it's not necessarily."
Chapter completed!
