853: New Behemoth

Hassan Whiteside! He flew Leonard's layup directly into the audience! God, Leonard thought he was encountering a soft persimmon, but ended up hitting a hard rock!”

Hubby Brown almost shouted, while Mark Jackson beside him was so surprised that he lost his voice.

One is the rising successor of the Spurs, and the other is a 10-day contract short-term worker who can't even read the name of many fans.

The two have a huge gap in identity and are completely incomparable. It seems that the result of their duel will not be suspense.

But these two players who are completely incomparable have staged a scene that subverts everyone's imagination.

Leonard stared blankly at the audience. The basketball in his hand was suffocated to that place just now. Usually he would be the only one who would be so bloody, and this is the first time he was so bloody by others!

Although the Spurs No. 2 was still expressionless, he was no longer calm in his heart.

From the beginning of today's game, he has not been able to go smoothly for a minute.

He was shaken by Link at the beginning, and then he was hit by the mid-range shot by Link. After that, he was suppressed by Link at both offense and defense.

Now I finally got to the period when the Grizzlies' inside defense was weak, but they were flying over by a guy I didn't know...

This is definitely the most frustrating game Leonard has ever played this season, and this game has just begun.

It is completely unknown whether the situation will become worse later!

In the past 11 games, Leonard has tortured others. Today, he has become the object of torture.

Link walked up excitedly to high-five Whiteside, so it doesn't matter whether he is young or not, the key depends on how to guide him.

Whiteside once paid the price for his arrogance, but now, he has been struggling in various low-level leagues for many years, and has roughly known how to use his talents.

"Good job, Hassan, I don't think anyone dares to say that your rating is only 59."

"This is not over yet Link, not over yet!" Whiteside has become full of confidence now, but his strength is finally worthy of his confidence.

The Spurs re-selected the sideline ball. Although they still have the right to attack the ball, Whiteside's bloody blow just now still hit the Spurs players' self-confidence.

The monster called Whiteside made the Grizzlies' substitute inside instantly become very deterrent. Just look at what he did to Leonard just now, and you will know that he is not easy to mess with.

However, after looking at Popovich, who now has a serious expression, the Spurs players can only bite the bullet and continue to attack the inside as planned.

It annoyed that weird old man, but it turned out to be much worse than being bleeding from Whiteside.

The Spurs reorganized the offense, and this time, the Spurs simply let Split play singles at a low post.

In the established plan, Split's current opponent should be Azeli, who is less than 2.10 meters tall. In this way, the Brazilian can make a big fuss with his height advantage.

But leaning against Whiteside, Split's height advantage disappeared without a trace. After Whiteside raised his arms at the basket, Split couldn't even see the basket!

But the Brazilian did not give up. He kept telling himself that there was nothing scary about a short-term worker who played in the Development League.

He is the starting center of the Spurs at least, and it is impossible for him to be worse than a little devil in the Development League!

So Split sat back and prepared to hook his hand.

But in the inside fight, Split found that he could not take any advantage. His strength and his ability to fight were not stronger than Whiteside!

Split's self-confidence began to shake, and when an NBA starting player cannot handle a Development League player, he will definitely fall into self-doubt.

In the end, Split chose to make a layup, thinking that no matter how bad he was, he could still make Whiteside a foul.

But Whiteside did not jump rashly. He just raised his arms and stood there. The height of 2.13 meters and the wingspan of 2.31 meters was enough to make Split difficult for him to move.

The Brazilian missed a layup under Whiteside's tough interference, and Whiteside successfully protected the basket for the second time in a row!

When Split chose to play Whiteside alone, Link was actually a little worried. After all, Whiteside's current low-level single defense ability is not that superb.

During training yesterday, Gasol scored three goals in a row and was also fouled. Whiteside wanted to block the shots too much, so he always acted impulsively.

He is now similar to Marcus Camby at his peak. The assisted defense blocking looks good, but his low-level single defense ability is not as powerful as the surface.

But today, Whiteside was unexpectedly calm. Perhaps, the guy listened to what he said to him.

Link has emphasized more than once since yesterday to tell him not to do extra things. There is no doubt that Whiteside has kept Link's advice in his heart.

After successfully interfering with Split's layup, Whiteside quickly jumped like a spring installed in the sole of his feet, and took the rebound into his pocket.

The Spurs' substitute No. 4 Austin Dayer was also preparing to come up to cut the ball, wanting to bully the NBA rookie. But after Whiteside grabbed the rebound, he immediately held the ball with both hands and waved his iron elbow, which was very experienced in protecting the ball.

Seeing this, Daye did not dare to get close to him, so he had to retreat honestly.

The Spurs' plan to rush into the inside failed again!

The giant beast wearing the No. 21 jersey showed his dominance in the inside. The Spurs players found that the newcomer in the inside of the Grizzlies was not a lamb to be slaughtered, but a dragon!

He blew his mouth and waved his powerful arms, killing all the warriors who tried to break into his "cave" without leaving any armor.

"Whiteside protected the rebound, and I think the Grizzlies' signing was very successful. At least so far, he has not allowed the Spurs to take advantage of the inside. The game continues, and the Grizzlies will fight back next."

Popovich was not calm, and he found that his plan today was not successful.

Lock Link with Leonard, failed.

While Gasol was resting, he beat the Grizzlies inside and failed.

The Spurs' two biggest advantages were not able to play, which made Popovich nervous.

Link held the ball again, and Leonard was as unsure as his coach when facing Link's ball-holding attack.

He didn't know how to choose the distance from Link, because Link could find opportunities in any situation.

This time, Link did not call for cover, but dribbled the ball alternately with his left and right hands, wanting to take the ball and break through by himself.

Meanwhile, Jimmy Butler cut from the right, attracting part of the Spurs' defensive attention.

At this moment, Link suddenly accelerated and carried Leonard to push in.

The confrontation between the two was very fierce, and the collision between the bodies was very powerful.

But both Leonard and Link resisted the opponent's impact. Leonard did not lose his position, stayed at the side of Link, and Link was not forced to stop. The confrontation between the two made the fans excited.

Seeing that Link was getting closer and closer to the basket, Split did not hesitate and immediately stepped forward to make up for defense. He stood at the basket with his arms raised, waiting for Link to bump into him!

Link suddenly threw the ball out near the basket. Everyone thought Link was forced to do nothing, so they could only force the ball to throw.

It seems that Link's throwing shot was already wrong. Also, even Link could not easily score a goal under the double interference of Leonard and Split.

Just as Split turned around and was about to protect the rebound, he saw Whiteside behind him rushing into the air like a dry land pulling onions!

Link threw this ball very high in order to avoid Split's arms. Under normal circumstances, this ball cannot be an all-over pass because no one can catch it.

But Whiteside stretched out his long arms and grabbed the pass in the air that Split thought was impossible to receive!

Whiteside gritted his teeth, and his forearms almost surpassed the basket. Don't forget that this is a guy who can surpass most opponents even when touching the height in slippers.

The pass was indeed very high, but Whiteside tried his best to catch it.

He remembered the self in the game that he could not even get an empty connection when he was playing with Link yesterday.

He didn't want to beat Split, nor did he want to score for the first time with the Grizzlies, but wanted to prove that my all-connection value was not that low, giving me the ability to improve and increase!

Grasping the basketball, Whiteside fell while his arm was pressing hard and pressing the ball into the frame!

"Boom!" A loud noise was made by the basket, and the entire basketball rack made a "crying" sound.

The extreme all-in-one connection between Link and Whiteside actually gave the Grizzlies an advantage in the Spurs' inside!

"At a terrible height, Whiteside's dunk is so exciting! There has never been such a powerful inside player in the Grizzlies!" Hubby Brown was covered in goosebumps. This kind of cooperation is not common in the Grizzlies.

Although the "Black and White Bears" are both top inside players in the league, neither Randolph nor Gasol are the "jumping men" with strong athletic capabilities.

Therefore, Link rarely completes such an all-in-one cooperation with his inside teammates.

But this time, Whiteside's appearance changed the Grizzlies' inside line.

When people mention the Grizzlies' inside line later, people will think of more than Gasol's delicate skills and Randolph's superb face-frame attack.

Whiteside's wildness will add another new style to the Grizzlies' terrible inside line!

Whiteside whistled to the sky and pounded his chest hard. Split was originally used by Popovich to bully the Grizzlies' inside, but now he is bullied to no avail.

When Link retreated, he deliberately passed by Popovich and said hello to the old man, "How is it? Have you found an advantage in the inside?"

This time, facing Link's provocation again, Popovich could no longer show her confident gaze like before.
