Harden and Westbrook sat on the stage, their eyes sluggish and their emotions were depressed.

It was indeed an unusual night for them.

The team scored less than 90 points in total, which is incredible for the Rockets.

In this league today, what does it mean to score less than 90 points?

Since November 1, NBA has played a total of 28 games.

Among them, there are only 7 games in which one side scores no more than three-digit games.

In these 7 games, the Rockets' 84 points in a single game were the lowest.

The second-lowest Jazz also scored 94 points.

Considering that the Rockets are a team that has only scored 159 points in a single game, they are one of the most offensive teams this season, the Rockets' offensive performance today is really shocking.

"James, can you talk about your offense today? Every round of your offense seems to encounter accurate blocking from the Grizzlies. Do you think it is their defense that works, or are you feeling bad today?"

Regardless of how Harden is feeling now, the reporters are about to start to expose their scars.

"I was lost in their defense today, that's it." Harden's answer was straightforward. He knew that if the Grizzlies achieved this today, they would definitely be bombarded.

He was mentally prepared for this. Faced with such a problem, there was nothing to hide.

And it's not embarrassing to lose to Link and the Grizzlies.

"So Russell, how do you think of your hit rate of less than 30% today?" After revealing Harden's scars, it's Westbrook's turn.

Westbrook is not as calm as Harden. Until now, his heart is still full of reluctance.

Faced with this humiliating question, Westbrook clenched his fists.

But soon, he vented his energy and lowered his head.

"My performance is really bad today, I hope I can play better next time."

Westbrook, who has always been "if you don't accept it", lowered his arrogant head. There was no way, and his record of 3 wins and 4 losses and his score difference of more than 30 made him really not confident to refute.

And if you don’t accept it, you have to accept it even if you don’t accept it.

In the end, Harden and Westbrook's lonely expressions at the press conference became the front-page photos of major sports news websites the next day.

Espn's title for this photo is also very appropriate. Link completely dismembered the Rockets.

After this game, many media put in a lot of effort to carefully analyze the various details of the Grizzlies' defense against the Rockets in this game, and show the exquisiteness of the Grizzlies' defense to fans.

However, fans will never know that all this is just for Jokic to sacrifice his time to attend an internet celebrity party

After the game with the Rockets, the voices questioning the Grizzlies completely disappeared.

If the Grizzlies had not had any exciting victory before that could prove their dominance.

Then the 34-point victory against the Rockets is enough to shut up everyone.

Even Sam Smith has been silent for a long time because he has really couldn't find Link's black spots recently.

Even if you invite Jordan back at the same time, he probably won't be able to score 61 points on the head of a top five star in the league, and immediately limit another top five player on the defensive end.

In the past, the top five stars in the league were usually in the same rank.

But now, Link is the only one-of-a-kind existence.

Less than half a month after the start of the season, Link had already defeated the Nets, the Lakers and the Rockets, and played Durant, James and Harden.

When Link first announced his retirement, many people expressed reluctance.

But now, I guess many people want to end this season soon.

Link continued to fight, and no one else had to play.

This is indeed the case. After defeating the Rockets, the Grizzlies easily defeated two not-so-strong opponents.

On November 6, in the snowy Minneapolis, the Grizzlies easily defeated the Timberwolves 127 to 111.

The Timberwolves' two-no.com lineup is already in their fifth season together.

It has been almost 6 years since Wiggins entered the league in 2014. Towns joined the team in the summer of 2015, and five years have passed in a blink of an eye.

However, over the years, the Timberwolves had the best record, but they just squeezed into the eighth place in the West.

By the way, that's because there was an old Grizzlies player Jimmy Butler in the Timberwolves formation at that time

In the past, people could say that Wiggins and Towns just haven't started to realize their talents. But now so many years have passed, and this is obviously no longer an excuse for the Timberwolves' poor record.

Maybe Towns and Wiggins have fulfilled their talents, but that's all.

In this game, Link only played 26 minutes and scored 28 points, which was unreasonably efficient.

Because the Timberwolves' defense is completely equivalent to not being there in Link. After Thibodeau left the Timberwolves, the team's defense could not be lifted up.

I lost the suspense early when I watched the game, and Jogel also asked Link to rest early. I should be kind and ruthless to young people.

The one who scored the most points in the game today was the second round pick of the Grizzlies Dillon Brooks.

As Link played 26 minutes before leaving the court for a break, Brooks gained more opportunities to perform than before.

He did not waste such an opportunity. Brooks made 6 of 19 shots in the whole game, and even made 5 of 7 shots from outside the three-point line, scoring 31 points!

After the game, the commentators on the spot shook their heads and joked: "It's a shame that the two No. 1 picks were overshadowed in front of a second round pick! Perhaps, the Timberwolves should ask the Grizzlies for tips on selecting people."

One day later, the Grizzlies beat the Magic 118-86 in Orlando, winning six consecutive victories.

Moreover, in the last three games, the Grizzlies have beaten their opponents, and their absolute dominance during the three consecutive championships has been revealed again.

After the game, the Grizzlies received a day off. On November 9, they will play against the Dallas Mavericks at home.

However, for Link, the rest time this day did not exist.

Because the alliance had already arranged it, Link was asked to shoot an NBA promotional advertisement.

But this time, the partner who was filming an advertisement with Link was a bit special.

Because Link is about to retire after playing this season, the league wants to shoot an advertisement with inheritance.

So, they found Luca Doncic, the Dallas Mavericks star who is known as the "Link successor", to shoot the advertisement together.

It seems that after Link, the league will push the spotlight on Doncic.

Although Doncic is a foreign player, he is indeed a guy with both high skills and popularity.

Although this is Doncic's second NBA season, his popularity is no longer comparable to other new players, but is close to the level of a league superstar!

People predict that Doncic, who is only in the second grade this season, is likely to be directly shot into the All-Star by fans.

Moreover, the votes are likely to rank among the top three!

The last player who attracted such great attention in the second year of his career was Grant Hill.

After all, at that time, Hill was the successor of the "god" of that era.

Now, Doncic has become the successor of Link who inherited Hill's power.

This cycle of reincarnation is really wonderful.

Originally, it was a common thing for Link to arrange an advertisement for the league.

But when Link thought of Doncic taking more than 100 selfies in one minute at the award ceremony this summer, Link was a little uneasy.
Chapter completed!
