After a 14-game winning streak, the Grizzlies moved towards another league record after winning their first 70 wins in the 21st century last season.

Great teams are always accompanied by the birth of various records. The Memphis Grizzlies have left their names in many league records. They are already an important team in the league.

But no one would think they had broken too many records. After the Grizzlies won 14 consecutive victories, another historical first approaching them.

Now, the eyes of fans around the world are on the Grizzlies. Their winning streak has become a huge focus.

When people know they are witnessing history, their focus is extremely high. Therefore, since the game against the Celtics, every move of the Grizzlies players has been under the attention of fans.

The Houston Rockets are undoubtedly the second most popular team now. As the creator of the first 15-game winning streak in history, the Rockets met the Grizzlies at this critical moment, which made this already unique regular season more dramatic.

Since Yao Ming retired, the attention of the Aerospace City team has plummeted. Although Jeremy Lin and Harden joined last season, their attention can only be considered second-rate.

It was not until this summer that Dwight Howard chose to settle in Space City that the team once again entered people's vision.

And this game is undoubtedly the most highly anticipated game that the Rockets have played in recent years.

As soon as the Rockets players got off the plane, they encountered a crowd of dark reporters. Some of these reporters were local Memphis reporters, and some were foreign reporters who came to report on the game.

This is far from the war between Space City and Memphis, but the focus of the whole world.

Dwight Howard showed his white teeth in front of the camera. Few stars could smile so happily in Memphis. Howard was an alien.

I don’t know if he wants to maintain his sunny boy’s character or is really full of confidence.

In comparison, James Harden's expression was much heavier. Since the Thunder period, Harden has often played against Link and the Grizzlies. There is no doubt that he is definitely the player who knows the Grizzlies best in the Rockets.

He understands all aspects of the Grizzlies, including the horror feeling when fighting with the Grizzlies! Last season and even in the Western Conference Finals, the experience of being overwhelmed by Link is still vivid in my mind.

Therefore, Harden does not have the good mood of Howard. He knows very well that even if he comes out of the Federal Express Arena, he will have to take off his skin!

That guy Dwight, who is not good at provoking, actually messing with the most difficult person...

The top ten players in the league are not easy to mess with, do you think it's just a joke?

"Hey, James, are you confident of winning the game today? We are in good shape recently. We must try our best when we get on the court!"

After getting on the team bus, Howard patted Harden on the back like a team leader.

Harden nodded on the surface, but actually he was in his heart.

Why did you show off a teaching face? Do I need your teaching? And even if you fight with the Grizzlies, you may not win even if you try your best. Then, think about which nightclub to relax after you go back...

Howard absolutely never expected that his strongest partner was actually not very strong in his desire to win.

They are all players who like to go out and hang out at four in the morning, but now Harden and Kobe are completely different concepts.

There is no reason why Howard is so confident. After a brief struggle at the beginning of the season, Howard is in a very good state now.

In the past three games, Howard averaged 21.3 points, 10.4 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game, and his data was quite beautiful. He must have thought he had returned to the peak and turned back to the "Warcraft" that could bring the Magic to the finals.

However, Howard was the second year he stayed in the West and was a newcomer. He still didn't know what the word "Memphis Grizzlies" was.

Until the evening, both sides had already warmed up on the court, and Howard still laughed from time to time.

Randolph looked at Howard and shook his head secretly, "That kid is stupid."

Link didn't care much about Howard's condition. He just wanted to take care of himself. The 15-game winning streak at the start has been maintained for nearly 20 years. Now, it's time for the Rockets to move their butts from the throne.

As for Howard? Don't worry, that guy will soon be unable to laugh.

Before the game began, Howard, with a superhuman smile on his face, accepted an interview with famous reporter David Aldridge.

"We are full of strength today, and we have played quite well in the past three games. Don't worry, after tonight, the league's longest winning streak will still belong to the Houston Rockets. Link is a superstar, so too! So, don't even think about passing the level easily!"

"Oh, then good luck, superstar Dwight." Aldridge smiled and patted Howard on the shoulder. Many people thought it was encouragement, but in fact, Aldridge was regretting.

A very good guy is going to be dealt with by Link again.

As both sides started to step into the court, Link only hugged Jeremy Lin for a moment, and then did not say hello to anyone else on the Rockets.

It can be seen that the smell of gunpowder is quite strong.

Howard looked at Link with a playful smile, but Link responded to a look of a fool.

Howard suddenly became angry and felt that he was insulted!

When I was playing in the finals, you didn’t know where you were! A ghost! When facing the league’s number one center, you have this attitude!?

Of course, Howard just complained in his heart and did not spit out. After the game begins, he has time to talk to Link.

"The starting lineups of both sides have already been in place. The Rockets have sent Jeremy Lin, Harden, Parsons, Terrence Jones and Howard to start. Currently, this starting lineup has achieved a record of 9 wins and 5 losses for the Rockets. Although the record is not ideal, overall it is getting better. Especially in the past three games, the Rockets have performed quite well."

Hubby Brown probably looked at the Rockets' starting lineup. To be honest, it was indeed much better than last season.

The Rockets' starting center last season was Asik, and basically both offense and defense were burdensome, and they were incomparable to Howard. Although Howard had passed his peak, he was still one of the first-level centers in the league.

Terrence Jones only played 19 games last season. The Rockets' candidates for the No. 4 position are erratic, but they are basically not high-level players. But this season, Jones has averaged 12 points per game since the start, and his performance is quite outstanding.

Chandler Parsons has better statistics than last season, and he is now a quasi-All-star player.

In addition to Jeremy Lin and Harden, who still maintain their standards, the Rockets' strength has increased significantly.

But even so, the Rockets still have various problems. Their current record of 9 wins and 5 losses is already very telling.

Every season, there are teams that perform well in the early stages of the season but fall out in the middle and late stages.

However, the performance was not good at the beginning of the season, and there were very few teams that made significant progress in the middle and late stages.

Hubby Brown doesn't know if the Rockets will become one of those few parts, but at least today, the Rockets cannot suddenly rise to a level.

Dwight Howard has been immersed in his own world for too long, and it is time for him to see the reality clearly.

And a superstar? A joke!

As soon as the referee threw the basketball, Howard jumped up suddenly and showed off his bounce ability in front of Gasol Jr.

He was very excited today. He felt that as long as he won this game, he would be able to regain the recognition of the whole world.

Harden took the ball and called the pick-and-roll outside the three-point line, but Howard, who was in the low post, was unmoved.

He leaned against Gasol, raised his hand to ask for the ball, and signaled that he would play singles at the low post!

I am a superstar, the number one center in the league, I will give you a pick-and-roll? What are you thinking about!

The Lakers left because they were unwilling to do this, and it was naturally even more impossible for the Rockets to do it.

Seeing Howard unmoved, Harden felt extremely embarrassed.

The defender raised his hand to pick-and-roll, but the center didn't want to skip you, and it would be embarrassing to whoever he put it on. In the first round, there was a disagreement in the offense.

There is no way, Howard's resume is deeper than Harden after all. In the end, the bearded man compromised and sent the basketball to Howard.

Howard held the ball at a low post, facing Gasol, the best defensive player of the season, but was not afraid.

I think he was the best defensive player winner for three consecutive years. He won the award for three consecutive years, and this record has not been broken yet.

Howard doesn't take the best defensive player seriously at all.

Rockets 12 relied on Gasol and accelerated violently, trying to turn around and break through and dunk!

However, what surprised Howard was that Gasol actually pressed step by step and stuck his position! The Spanish was indeed unfast, but it was not yet possible to be passed by casually.

Howard couldn't get into it, so he could only lean on Gasol and move horizontally near the basket.

Howard was unwilling to give up. He had to play the momentum of the first attack as the first center in the league!

So he hooked up while walking. However, this kind of technical skill is not what Howard is good at.

Under Gasol's long arm blockade, Howard's "zombie hook" knocked out of the box, without any accuracy at all.

With this retro hooking technique, Howard's two Rockets predecessors Yao Ming and Olajuwon played a terrible role. But it was obvious that Howard failed to inherit their mantle.

In the first attack, Howard slapped himself.

"Dwight missed the first offense, Randolph took the rebound, now look at the Grizzlies' counterattack!"

The Rockets' defense is generally at the level of the middle and lower levels of the league. Howard's protection against the penalty area is indeed much better than Asik last season, and Parsons' defense is pretty good, but Harden and Jeremy Lin's defense are not enough.

Jeremy Lin is limited by physical conditions, so his defense can only be said to be average. As for Harden, he is a "ruthless man" who often goes up to the five embarrassing defenses because of his eyes.

After slowly passing the half, Conley threw the ball to Link in an understatement.

Link was not in a hurry when facing Parsons, who was tall with power forward. His tentative steps outside the three-point line made the "high, rich and handsome" in a dilemma. Just a tentative steps made Parsons very nervous.

Parsons finally decided to take a step back and beware of Link's breakthrough. Link seized this little space and decisively pulled out the jump shot!

Parsons didn't expect Link to be so confident, he only gave Link a little space.

However, the higher the level, the smaller the demand for space. Kobe can shoot with two or three players, and James can break through with two or three blocking. Without space, superstar players can score goals.

Link completed the attack before Parsons blocked it. Link's attack was very fast, and Parsons had no time to block it.

In this way, the basketball accurately drilled into the net and made a three-pointer! Link had no luck from receiving the ball to scoring, but just made a few test steps to win a goal opportunity for himself.

This goal is in sharp contrast to Howard's clumsy hook just now. What else can I say? This is the real superstar!

"Haha, the goal was not easy, Parsons had to defend harder today. The Grizzlies easily scored first and the game continued."

After Link scored a goal, his eyes passed over Parsons, looked at Howard, and shrugged at the "Warcraft".
Chapter completed!
