Eight Hundred and Twenty-Two: A More Dangerous Enemy than Durant

Latest website: Durant made Jason Taylor make a fool of himself as soon as he came up, but soon, Jimmy Butler made Durant make a fool of himself again.

Jason Taylor loves Jimmy Butler to death now, and he thought Butler was playing so hard just to get himself out.

But in reality, Butler didn't think much of it at all. Whether it's a practice or an amateur game, once the confrontation begins, Butler's head has only one voice, "Get him!"

After being stolen by Butler and playing a counterattack, Durant also decided not to hold the ball for the time being, and then start killing after he gets used to this high-intensity confrontation.

Otherwise, he will only miss again and again. Durant could see that Butler was not kidding himself today.

So the Warriors' second offense, the ball was handed over to Stephen Curry.

For others, Durant, the scoring champion, is the biggest threat. But when Link saw Curry holding the ball, his nerves became tense!

So that just after halftime on the 30th, Link immediately posted it!

"Playing the defense after halftime? Link is too exaggerated." Bryant shook his head off the court. Although the Drew League advocates playing games seriously, Link is a little too serious.

Against a Stephen Curry, so what?

Link doesn't think so. For him, Curry is now a bigger threat than Durant!

After being defended by Link, Curry calmly handed the ball to his good partner Klay Thompson, and then cut to the right bottom corner empty-handed.

Link moved with Curry in an attempt to block his catch. But Curry ran halfway, but suddenly turned around and ran back to the top of the arc outside the three-point line!

No matter how fast Link's reaction is, it is impossible to synchronize with Curry. Just like that, he was thrown a small step away. As soon as Curry ran to the top of the arc beyond the three-point line, Klay Thompson tacitly returned the ball to the past.

Link had already rushed to Curry at this time, leaving only a small space for Curry. Ordinary people are so guarded by Link, they must have given up.

After all, the shot space is too small, even if you are lucky enough not to be taken, it will be seriously disturbed, and the ball thrown out is not accurate at all.

But Curry was not fooled.

For him, he needs less space than others!

Seizing that fleeting opportunity, Stephen Curry shot a jumper before Link was completely sealed!

Link's first impression of Curry's shot was quick, as if he threw the ball to the basket indiscriminately just to avoid the block.

But Link knew better than anyone that Curry's extremely fast shot was done with extremely complete movements. If you look at Curry's slow-motion return to the shot, you know how superb his shot is.

Besides, a player's shooting posture and shooting percentage are not necessarily proportional. Marion and Kevin Martin's shooting posture, even elementary school basketball coaches would dislike it. However, their hit rate is not low at all.

What's more, Curry's shooting posture is not as bizarre as Martin's and the others, just a little faster.

Just when everyone thought that Curry's hurried three-point shot would hit the frame, the basketball jumped into the net hollow and hit it directly!

"What!? Stephen Curry's shot actually went in!? Link's defense has been done very well. He didn't get out of position at all, and he didn't give the shot space. It can be said that there is no problem. But there is no way, Luck is on Curry's side."

The commentator and most fans agree that Curry's shot was just luck.

But Link knew better than anyone that it was Curry's routine! Even on the NBA arena, he can perform such operations!

The perverted Curry is here. Next season, the Grizzlies will face a tougher opponent in the West than the Thunder and Spurs!

Later, although Butler used a rollover jumper to pull back a city on Curry's head, Link still did not relax at all.

Limited by the physical disadvantage, Curry's defense is not very good, but he can always recover the points he lost on the offensive end.

Sure enough, Curry shot again in the next round. This time, Curry floated the ball past the double screens of Durant and Thompson and threw it in from beyond the arc.

The biggest difference between Curry and Ray Allen, Reggie Miller and other great shooters is that he has a strong ability to shoot off the dribble!

Ray. Allen and Miller mostly use the ball to finish spot-up shots after running without the ball. For them, stabilizing the center of gravity before shooting is a big trick to ensure the hit rate.

But Curry has broken this tradition. He can suddenly pull up and shoot while holding the ball, and even from beyond the arc, his shooting percentage from the dribble is very high!

For the first time, one could say that Curry was lucky. But doing the same thing for the second time in a row can't be explained by luck alone.

On the court side, even Kobe's expression became serious. This summer, all kinds of monsters and monsters have begun to emerge.

There's Butler in the front and Curry in the back. On the contrary, Durant and Link seem to have become supporting roles.

Afterwards, Link directly started the half-court pressing defense, which stopped Curry's infinite range.

This is the Drew League after all, and everyone's tactical awareness is not that strong. Therefore, Curry also lost the blessing of tactics and system.

Curry, who was not strong in confrontation, was entangled by Link and lacked the support of his teammates, and he was instantly misfired.

Durant began to take over the offense, but he still found it difficult to score on Jimmy Butler.

At first, Durant thought it was because he didn't adapt to such a confrontational intensity that he didn't play well. But then Durant found that even he himself didn't believe this excuse. He had already taken out the state he was playing in the NBA and was attacking, but he still couldn't score easily!

In the first half, Durant's hit rate was terrible. It wasn't until the second half that there was a slight recovery. But overall, scoring champion Durant is still very embarrassed in front of Butler today.

Butler was very aggressive on both ends of the floor, leaving Durant panting and sweating profusely. Durant also found that the more tired you are, the easier it is to be led by Butler. Because Butler is like a perpetual motion machine, he will not stop until the end of the game!

The more tired you are, the more energetic he is.

In the end, with 38 seconds left in the game, Durant scored 18 points, and Butler had scored 23 points! And, his hit rate is a full 15 percentage points higher than Durant!

"Jimmy was better than Kevin today. People say the Grizzlies won't have a star other than Link to take the pressure off him next season. But now, I believe Grizzlies fans don't have to worry about a single issue at all. Kevin Durant is playing back and forth, what's not a star?"

In the last 38 seconds, Stephen Curry suddenly made a jumper two steps away from the three-point line.

Although Link sealed it in time, he was still frightened into a cold sweat.

Today, Link fully experienced the sense of oppression that Curry brings. His threat on the basketball court is completely inversely proportional to that thin body! As long as he shoots, you are nervous.

Fortunately, Curry's last long-range three-pointer failed to hit, which allowed Link's team to firmly grasp the victory.

But even if he wins, Link still has a lingering fear of winning!

If the current Curry is thrown under Steve Kerr's system, how terrifying he is!

This year's title defense journey may be really difficult as never before. A more dangerous enemy than Durant is already on the way to the Grizzlies' title defense!

The score was finally fixed at 105 to 99, and Link's team won by 6 points. Of course, Link also knew that if Curry made that three-pointer in the last 38 seconds, the result would be another story.

The highest scorer in the game was Butler. He finally had fun today and his strength was tested.

Facts have proved that the current Butler is fully capable of playing a "giant" role.

Durant gritted his teeth, knowing that it would be more difficult to get the Grizzlies next season. If Butler maintains this state in the new season, the Grizzlies can soar even without major signings!

But Durant didn't care about his two teammates, Curry and Thompson. He didn't know yet that the two guys next to him might be more dangerous than the Grizzlies...

After the game, Link was not as happy as he was after his win at Rock Park last year.

After hugging the people around him, he walked back to the locker room with a heavy expression, picked up his mobile phone and dialed Chris Brickley, the head coach of the training camp.

"I want to improve my ability to shoot after dribbling from beyond the three-point line. You can make a training plan for me as soon as possible."

"But...you've already arranged a lot of training programs, Link." Brickley looked at Link's packed schedule, a little ashamed. The training schedule is so dense, and more! ?

"Then increase the training time! Usually I start training at 9 in the morning, then I will start at 7 and 6 in advance!"

Link answered very firmly, he knew that the leisurely summer officially ended from today.

If he does not want his own era to end, he must prevent another era from coming!

Next season, it will be a deadly showdown between two cross-generational teams and two cross-generational players.

If you don't want to be eliminated, you must prepare for this summer.
