Reverse Growth Superstar

　　 Linas Kreza, a member of the Lithuanian national team, is 2.03 meters tall and can play two forward positions.

　　 Kleiza entered the NBA for the first time in 2005. He was the 27th overall pick in the first round. In 2009, Kleiza left the NBA and returned to Europe to play for a year. It wasn't until 2010 that the Raptors who sent Bosh away signed him.

　　 Although this guy is not famous in the NBA, he is very famous in the international basketball world. In the NBA, he also once won the honorary record of 40 points in a single game.

　　 Although Kleiza's scoring average is only 11.2 points per game this season, his occasional high-light performance in a few games still impressed the fans.

　　 Once this projecting forward feels the touch, his scoring ability is comparable to that of an All-Star player.

　　 There is no doubt that Kleiza feels very hot today. Under Gay's passive defense due to physical influence, Kleiza froze and led the Raptors to a wave of 16-8. In this regard, Grizzlies coach Jane Triano is undoubtedly very satisfied. A good start will sometimes directly affect the trend of the game.

"Keep it up, Kleiza! I'll set up a few pick-and-roll tactics for you, try to get out of the gap, and take the shot if you have the opportunity! The Grizzlies are back-to-back away today, they are very tired! All in one go, let the group from the west Guys go to hell!"

　　 Triano looked at Kleiza, as if grabbing a straw. He knows very well that handing the ball to the strongest person is a tactic. And he believes that if Kleiza can continue torturing Rudy Gay on the offensive end, Gay's offensive efficiency will definitely be affected.

　　 In this way, the electronic buzzer sounded, the timeout ended, and the two sides continued to fight.

　　 At this time, the game has only been played for a few minutes, and it stands to reason that the rotation time has not yet entered. But when the Grizzlies players returned to the game, people realized that the Grizzlies had changed!

"Link, this rookie forward who scored 18 points efficiently in the last game was put on the battlefield. This time, he replaced...He replaced OJ Mayo! Lionel Hollins The coach actually asked him to play the second position! What is this? Is there any injury problem with Mayo?"

　　 The commentators were all dumbfounded, they really couldn't figure out why Hollins let Link play the second position. Kleiza also didn't understand it at all. It was because he was playing this point that Guy couldn't lift his head. Why did the other party replace O.J. Mayo?

　　 But it doesn't matter, as long as he can win today, it is his business that the other party wants to change to the court.

　　 After returning from a timeout, the Grizzlies attacked for the first time. Link looked at his matchup on the offensive end, and he is the most popular athlete in Canada in the future, DeMar DeRozan.

　　 Unexpectedly, I played against the future star again so soon. In fact, DeRozan's statistics this season have begun to look different. He is now averaging 17.2 points per game in the second grade, which is a very important scoring point for the Raptors.

　　 But DeRozan's scoring in this period basically relied on dunks and layups, and his mid-range shooting was not robust enough. As for three-pointers... everyone may not believe it. DeRozan's average three-pointers this season is only 9.6%...

　　 Therefore, with the black and white bears guarding the inside, DeRozan, who focuses on breakthrough points, should not be able to make any waves today. As long as Kleiza is strangled, it is basically equivalent to strangling the Raptors.

　　 While thinking, Conley had passed the basketball to Link. As a second position, Link needs to make a transit point.

　　Actually, O.J. Mayo also needs to act as a transit point under Hollins' system, but that guy often attacks on his own as soon as he gets his head, so he doesn't let Hollins worry.

　　 But for Link, such an accident will never happen.

　　 Link turned sideways and put the ball behind him, waiting for Conley to run over and hand it over. At the moment of handing over, Link took advantage of the situation and blocked Spanish point guard Calderon.

　　 Conley broke through with the ball, and Link immediately followed up. Sure enough, Conley, who had a wide passing vision, re-passed the ball outside after attracting the defense, and Link, who was at the mid-range position, received the basketball steadily.

　　 "Nice partial cooperation with two defenders with high quotient playing together is really a pleasure."

　　 If Mayo listened to the commentators, he would be furious, meaning his golf quotient is not high?

　　 Link takes the ball and shoots. This is his favorite offense. But in the air, Link's wrist turned lightly, turning into a pass!

　　 Just when the Raptors were ready to rebound, the basketball unexpectedly fell into Rudy Gay's hands. Gay took the ball and shot, and he finally got a comfortable mid-range shot.

　　 The reason why Guy is extremely inefficient in some games is because he likes to throw in waves when he is in a hurry. To put it bluntly, his inefficiency is a matter of shot selection, not ability.

　　 And this kind of mid-range open shot is not difficult for Gay. The basketball hits the net with a hollow core. Once the timeout came back, the Grizzlies broke the scoring drought.

　　 Seeing the team scored immediately after the timeout, Hollins was extremely proud of his decision. He knew it was right to change for Link!

"Beautiful assists and finishes. Link's passing is really unexpected. It's incredible how a small Fresno University can cultivate two outstanding forwards, George and Link at the same time? You know, Fresno doesn't even qualify for NCAA Division I games."

　　 The commentators instantly collectively incarnate "Lin Blow". Now no one dares to look down upon that Chinese American. He can always create value on the court.

　　 "Damn it!" Seeing Guy score a goal in his own way, Kleiza curled his lips. This summer, he signed a four-year contract with the Raptors worth $20 million. Even so, he knows very well that if he can't continue to perform well, he may also leave.

　　Went around Europe and came back, he didn't want to leave again.

　　 So, he decided to use the fiercest attack, counterattack on Guy's head!

　　 However, Kleiza can't be counted, when he stepped into the Grizzlies halftime, the person defending him was no longer Gay, but the No. 0 forward!

　　 "Link actually went to defend Linus Kreza himself! Is this change of position arranged by Coach Hollins?" As the commentator shouted in surprise, the scene showed Hollins.

　　 Hollins has no expression, because Link hasn't proved whether he can guard the place.

　　 Kleiza wasn't afraid of Link at the beginning. Today, even Rudy Guy doesn't know anything about him, let alone a losing draft? Moreover, he is still an Asian!

　　 Kleiza is not racist, but an Asian on the basketball court will always make people feel that he is the weaker side.

　　 According to the tactics, Kleiza began to run without the ball under the cover of his teammates. He thinks that his keen offensive sense and superb running skills should be enough to easily get rid of that Chinese rookie.

　　 Just now, Rudy Gay’s too relaxed defense has given Kleiza the illusion of "I can score anywhere".

　　 Therefore, when he ran to the right corner according to the tactics, and then received a pass from Calderon, he was very surprised when he found that Link actually posted it immediately.

"How is it possible!?" Kleiza couldn't believe it. The slightly thin Asian in front of him could actually go through heavy cover to keep up with his own rhythm~www.readwn.com~ Just as Kleiza was still surprised, Link directly Forced to go up and give Kleiza a strong confrontation at the bottom corner!

　　 "Haha, beautiful!" Off the court, Tony Allen waved the towel, the kid made it through at one point, and the time for his confrontation was just right!

　　 Kleiza is a striker-type striker, and breakthrough with the ball is not his strong point. Now, Kleiza was directly at a loss when being guarded so madly by Link.

　　 Tough, pressing step by step, without mercy, Kleiza was terrified by Link's entanglement. In the narrow corner, Kleiza could only choose to pass hastily.

　　 Under Link's interference, the ball passed high and floated. Rudy Gay seized the opportunity to take a leap, intercept the basketball, and then take advantage of the trend!

　　 Guy’s athletic ability ensures that he will become a sharp knife in the conversion attack. When he had already crossed the midfield line, the Raptors players reacted to defend.

　　 But all was to no avail, Rudy Gay vented all his dissatisfaction with a one-handed snap button. When he doesn't have to consume energy on the defensive end, Rudy Gay's offensive power is terrifying.

　　 "Boom!" The basket made a loud noise, and there was no sound in the Air Canada Center Arena.

　　 On the big screen, the score became 16 to 12. And all these changes started from the appearance of the Chinese No. 0.

　　 "Good job, keep going!" Hollins applauded Link, and the guy didn't let himself down again.

　　 Besides defensively, Hollins also found that the Grizzlies' chemistry seemed better when Link was on the court.

　　 Guy can always get easy scoring opportunities, and other people will not be disrupted on the defensive end.

　　 A perfect backup forward, Hollins thinks he has found it.
