629: MVP is in danger

Mills's ultra-long-distance three-pointer came to an end to the first quarter. Unfortunately, the San Antonio Spurs still did not overtake or equalize the score.

30 to 22, the Spurs entered the second quarter with an 8-point disadvantage. This is definitely not the result **Vic wanted. He originally hoped that the Spurs could open the score in rotation time. As a result, he couldn't even equalize the score.

The Grizzlies' rotation players performed very well, and the Spurs were proud of their bench depth at all.

In just one quarter of the game, the Grizzlies allowed the Spurs to see what the real championship level is.

"Well done, you completely suppressed the Spurs. A few years ago, in the Glamor, we were the challengers. But today, they were the challengers!"

Link stood up happily and slapped the players who ended the field. To be honest, it was really amazing that he could suppress the Spurs to this point.

After all, only Link knows that the Spurs this season have full championship-level strength. Although the season has just begun and the Spurs have not yet entered a 100% state. However, Link is also very pleased to be able to suppress the Spurs under such circumstances.

Indeed, there is no second superstar in the Grizzlies. But it turns out that the group of superstars is not the best way to win. Having a group of like-minded teammates is more effective than working with a completely disagreeable superstar.

In just one quarter of the game, many media that were not optimistic about Link and the Grizzlies before the game shut up.

Although the Grizzlies left Vasquis and Stevens left, and the main lineup was hardly strengthened, they were still firm.

The Spurs are struggling in the Federal Express Arena, and the old order seems to have become vulnerable in the face of new forces.

After the start of the second quarter, Link still did not play. The situation is right now, and Jogel plans to give Link a few more minutes of rest.

After the physically fit Link came on the court, the Grizzlies started to open the score.

Facing the Grizzlies' lineup with a mix of main players and substitutes, the Spurs did not play easily. Jimmy Butler showed his enthusiasm on the defensive end in the first two seasons. After having better experience this season, Butler's contribution on the defensive end is obvious to all.

He and Iguodala supported the entire wing defense. Even if Link doesn't play, the Grizzlies' wing defense is still top-notch.

The Spurs struggled to maintain the score with their team offense. Although they did not allow the Grizzlies to continue to pull the score wide, they were unable to approach.

After three minutes of the second quarter, Jogel took advantage of the chance to die and took advantage of Link again.

**Vic stood by the bench and found that he was very scared. The old guy no longer remembers when the last time he was scared because of a player.

Link is now in good physical fitness, and the Grizzlies' powerful wing thickness makes Link not have to play more than 40 minutes in each game like before.

Now, the score difference has been recovered by the Spurs and has become 6 points. But everyone knows that the Spurs' pursuit has ended here.

The first round after Link came back, he used his outstanding judgment to destroy the Spurs' pass.

Although he did not complete the steal directly and just touched the basketball out of bounds, this still disrupted the Spurs' offense.

Then, Duncan attacked the inside with Gasol's defense. That's right, it's Gasol who is defending Duncan now. After seeing Duncan taste the sweetness on Randolph in the first quarter, Joegel changed his strategy.

Jogel may not have such a sensitive sense of smell on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, his adjustments are always very timely, after all, he is a defensive coach.

No matter how magical the "No. 21 Rookie" is, he is still not at the peak. Under Gasol's tough defense, Duncan's steady jump shot also made a blacksmith.

**Vic is anxious. If the goal just now is scored, the difference will become 4 points and become extremely close.

But if you don't score this goal, you don't know how much the difference will become. Sometimes, an inconspicuous attack is likely to be the turning point of the entire game.

After Link grabbed the rebound, he took the ball and advanced. Leonard did not dare to stick it directly. He was already dizzy by Link in the first quarter.

Link still did not hand over the ball after reaching outside the three-point line. It can be seen that he wanted to organize this offense himself.

Link first handed the ball to Gasol, then ran past Gasol and handed it. In this way, Leonard would be thrown away and Split had to make up for the defense.

Split was feeling uneasy. The scenes of him being blocked by Link today and being hit hard are still vivid in my mind.

**Vicci didn't expect Split to defend Link. As long as the Brazilian could find a way to slow down Link's breakthrough, Leonard would naturally get everything done.

Link was blocked by Leonard and Split, and the Spurs' overall defense was still very smooth.

Just as **Vic was about to cheer for his team's defense, Link threw the ball back without looking back.

Mark Gasol received the basketball one step behind the free throw line and easily scored a jump shot!

"Excellent passing vision, another pass without looking at people. Everyone's position of the Grizzlies is in Link's mind. He doesn't have to look at it at all, and he knows where to send the ball!"

Mike Bryn looked at Link's data. Not long after playing in the second quarter, he had 8 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists.

That guy, I won’t be able to play a triple-double in the first game of the new season...

At the American Airlines Center, Heat fans have forgotten the pain of this summer and cheered for their team again.

The new season, a new starting point. All Heat fans believe that the omnipotent Big Three can complete revenge.

The dream of the Heat's two consecutive championships last season was shattered, and it has to be said that this is indeed a regret. But 2 championships in 3 years are also an amazing achievement.

Whether the Heat can achieve 2 championships in three years depends on whether the Heat can complete redemption this season.

At least today, facing the Bulls after Ross' comeback in the opening match, the Heat showed unshakable strength.

The highly anticipated Ross has been away from the field for a year, and Chicago fans are looking forward to their "contemporary Jordan" leading the Bulls to turn the tide. But the fact is, Ross's condition in his first game after his comeback is very bad.

4 of 15 shots, 1 of 7 three-pointers, and only scored 12 points in the whole game... Rose's performance is definitely not at the MVP level.

It can be seen that Ross worked very hard and wanted to find his former self. But today, Ross was timid. If he hadn't been wearing the red No. 1 jersey, people would even doubt whether the guy on the court was Ross.

Perhaps because of fear of injury and fear of leaving the arena again, Ross did not show his sharp breakthrough today, but instead jumped on the perimeter again and again, choosing to score in a way without confrontation. He shot 7 three-pointers in a single game, which is impossible for Ross to happen in MVP season.

Ross is not good at shooting, and his touching jump shot shooting rate makes the Bulls' offense mess. Thibodeau is originally a defensive coach, and his offense depends entirely on Ross. Now Ross can't attack, and the entire Bulls can't attack.

In the end, the Heat easily killed the highly anticipated Bulls at home. Ross left the field with a bleak hit rate of 26.7%. No one knew whether the Windy City Rose could continue to bloom.

No matter how sad Rose is, no one will care about it now. The time after the game is only the winner.

LeBron James was sought after by fans in the center of the court. James played for 38 minutes in this game and scored 23 points, 6 assists and 8 rebounds in an all-round data.

James was in a good mood. Although he was a little unhappy when ESPN selected Link as the top 50 stars in the 13-14 season. But now, after proving his strength, James felt much more relaxed in an instant.

"Congratulations, LeBron. He won the big victory in the first game, and the Heat are still unstoppable this season! However,"

When James heard the reporter say "but", he immediately became alert.

"However, Link scored 32 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in the Federal Express Arena, with triple-double data, and the Grizzlies also beat the Spurs 15 points at home, making a good start. Your old opponent doesn't seem to be outdone. How do you view Link's triple-double performance? Do you think Link will threaten your MVP position this season?"

The reporter's words made James laugh completely.

He scored 30+ triple-double in the first game? That guy Link is going to start the full battle from the first day of the new season!

Last season, including the playoffs, Linkman "just" won five triple-doubles. Although it was already amazing, five triple-doubles in a single season are not an exaggerated record.

As a result, this year, Link had a triple-double data in the first game, and his dominance in the field increased to a certain extent.

"He's doing a great job, but this season is still long, let's see."

After James finished speaking, he turned around and left the court.

The Heat No. 6 licked his lips, and the joy after the victory of the game was instantly wiped out.

It doesn't matter if you lose espn's top 50 stars in the new season, but if you lose mvp...
