1032: Killing in the Calm
"Oh my God, this kid...... It's enviable. ”
Looking at the video of Antetokounmpo's game, Wade sighed vigorously.
I thought Durant was perverted enough, and I thought he would be a unique existence.
But now, a player who is more perverted than Durant in terms of physical condition has emerged.
"Link, are you sure you can handle this beast?" Wade is really a little worried, not because he doesn't trust Link, but because the other party is too unconventional!
In the video, Antetokounmpo's athleticism and physical fitness seem to be completely different from the others. You know, it's in the NBA!
In Wade's youth, there was no way there would have been such a player. Andre. Kirilenko? Compared to Antetokounmbo, Kirilenko seems too "normal".
Looking at Antetokounmpo's game video, you can see that many teams can't use the No. 3 position to defend him at all, but have to directly use the No. 5 position to play against him!
The reason is simple, a real number three player is completely unable to stop him!
However, the number five player was also very passive against the Greeks.
Antetokounmpo's flexibility is unattainable by most of the league's No. 5 players.
Also a big man, Antetokounmpo doesn't feel bulky at all. He often played a good show of passing the opposing center, even Drummond a few days ago.
Therefore, no matter who Antetokounmpo plays against, it seems that he is playing the wrong position.
As flexible as he is, not as tall as he is. is as tall and strong as him, but he is always easily passed by him.
This is where Antetokounmpo excels, and this gap in physical fitness and condition cannot be made up for by hard work and skill.
"Honestly...... I really don't know how it turned out. Link shook his head, indeed, it wasn't the first time he had played Antetokounmpo.
But the current Antetokounmpo can't be compared with the past.
This is the first time in the true sense that Link has faced off against "Brother Alphabet" after becoming a star.
"But I'm used to playing up against such tall strikers. Kevin. Durant and I have been fighting for so many years, and I won it once last season. I think I should have a bit of experience against these kinds of strikers. ”
"Alright, don't think about it so much, Dwayne. Rest early, and tomorrow night everything will be revealed. ”
Looking at Link's calm appearance, Wade pursed his lips.
People say Antetokounmpo is a monster, but why isn't Link a monster?
Wade said that Link is a monster, not because of his ability, but because of his attitude towards the game!
Wade thought to himself that if it was LeBron sitting next to him right now, James might be worried.
Link, however, gives people the feeling of excitement!
I'm excited to face a strong enemy!
Link's belligerent, competitive mood is pouring out.
This kind of monster can never be defeated psychologically.
Wade doesn't know if Link had the same mindset when he faced the Heat's Big Three.
He seems to have found the real reason why the Heat lost to Link for the second year in a row.
This time, the "Greek monster" will not be unilaterally slaughtered again. On his way, another "monster" stood in front of him.
※※※
The Bradley Center on the night of Nov. 4 was overcrowded, and Wesley, one of the Bucks owners, was overcrowded. Adhans assured that he hasn't seen anything like it since buying the Bucks in 2014.
Tickets for this match were sold out a day earlier.
In the square outside the stadium at Bradley Center, even in the cold wind and temperatures close to 0°C, the fans who did not have tickets were still enthusiastic and gathered to cheer for the team.
Since Ray. Basketball in Milwaukee has never been so strong since Allen.
And all this because of the Greeks whose name twists the tongue.
Michael. Reed? Andrew. Bogut, Brandon. Jennings and Monta. Ellis?
Sorry, none of them have made such a big splash in Milwaukee.
But this time in Antetokounmpo, the Milwaukees really see hope!
Inside the stadium, the hearts of the players are also very hot.
When the two sides were still warming up, the atmosphere of the battle at the scene was heating up.
Even putting aside the factor of Link and Antetokounmpo, both teams will be giving it their all today.
After all, they are winning four in a row and three in a row, and they are all on the right track.
Only the side that performs better and fights harder will have the possibility to extend the winning streak.
Link has been very serious since he came in, and he is in a completely different state than the previous few days!
In the first four games, playing the Knicks, Wizards and Timberwolves, Link gave people the feeling of relaxation.
He stepped onto the pitch with ease, played the game with ease, and then walked away with the victory.
But today, Wade found Link frowning the entire time.
It seems that Link is ready to explode his full strength today.
Before the start of the match, Antetokounmpo walked over to Link with a grin.
Looking at Antetokounmpo's honest smile, it's really easy to overlook his danger.
But Link knows that this guy is not as gentle on the court.
"Link, I'm so glad I played against you so early this season!" Antetokounmpo and Link hugged gently.
The moment he was hugged by Antetokounmpo, Link felt as if his whole body had become smaller.
With a height of 2.03 meters, he can compete with James and even top the No. 5 position, but he looks very petite in Antetokounmpo's arms......
When you get up close and personal with Antetokounmpo, you'll find that his figure is even more terrifying than it looks on TV!
Although Durant is also tall, he is thin! So visually, Durant doesn't seem to be that scary.
But Antetokounmpo is different, this guy has a big skeleton, and he is paired with LeBron. Jamesian tendon meat.
Just looking at it is a deterrent.
"The first four games were good, Janis." Link patted Antetokounmpo on the back, as a tap on the shoulder would make him look short......
"Hehe, none of them can compare to a grizzly bear. In my opinion, even warriors can't. So it's not great to defeat them, it's great to defeat you! Antetokounmpo scratched his head, like a little fan who felt shy after seeing his idol.
"Keep it up, even though I don't really want you to win." Link waved his hand, he was really a little overwhelmed in the face of such a "cute" opponent.
"Don't worry, Link, I will! I will do my best to bring out the best in me! I'm not the same as before, Link, and I won't let you down! ”
"Uh......" Link was speechless, how did he feel that his encouragement seemed to arouse this kid's desire to fight.
After a few pleasantries, the two parted, and the game was about to begin.
This game may be the least gunpowder game since the start of the Grizzlies season.
Bucks fans don't have a deep grudge against the Grizzlies, and the Grizzlies have never had any holiday with the Bucks over the years.
Everything seemed very calm, and when the two starters stepped onto the pitch, the cheers were not even too loud.
On the Bucks' side, head coach Kidd sent a bunch of tall and long-arm "bamboo pole monsters".
Ever since Antetokounmpo became famous, the Bucks have been very fond of this type of player with long arms and height.
In this year's draft, they also selected a man who looked similar to Manute in proportions. Bol's South Sudanese player Thorne. Mack.
It can be seen that the Bucks want to include as many players as possible with outstanding physical conditions.
And their starters are almost all slender types.
John. Henson, Jabari. Parker, Antetokounmpo, Chris. Middleton......
Except for the starting point guard, the former Grizzlies veteran Dellavedova is not so exaggerated, and the others are gibbons.
It's a physically gifted and dynamic team.
And soon, the grizzly bears felt the energy.
Gasol fought for the first shot from Henson, and until now, the atmosphere in the Bradley Centre has been relatively calm.
Conley handed the ball to Link just after half-time, and when Link received the ball, his eyes suddenly darkened.
Antetokounmpo leaned up with open arms like a wall, even blocking out the light!
Link was undaunted, alternating his hands on dribbles looking for a breaking rhythm.
Wade swallowed on the side, Antetokounmpo's defensive area was formidable, and only Link had the courage to single him.
Moreover, this seems to be the strongest offensive desire of Link since the beginning of the season!
Antetokounmpo's center of gravity swayed with Link, and Link seized the momentary opportunity, suddenly accelerated, and rushed past Antetokounmpo!
The Greek scrambled to keep up, and he had a bigger pace than anyone else, allowing him to hold his defensive position with ease.
Seeing that it was very difficult to directly wipe Antetokounmpo, Link suddenly made a sharp stop, retreated, and made a jumper!
The stop-and-go jump shot is already one of Link's signature moves.
Countless well-known superstars have been beaten by Link's trick to lose their temper. And there are countless stars who were directly shaken down by one move.
Link is confident that he has indeed distanced himself from Antetokounmpo and gained space.
However, Link had just thrown the ball when he saw a large hand suddenly burst into the air and slammed into the air.
"How is that possible!?" Link's eyes widened, he hadn't been shocked by his opponent in years.
"Smack!"
Link's basketball was fanned back by Antetokounmpo, and indeed, there was a distance between Link and Antetokounmpo.
That's enough distance for Link to score in front of the others. But in front of the "Greek monster" with an incomparably tall and perverted arm span, this distance is not safe enough!
"Boom!" Finally, the Bradley Center burst into cheers from the fans.
This calm atmosphere was shattered in an instant.
On the surface, Antetokounmpo was polite to Link, and the fans at the scene had no ill will towards the Grizzlies.
But the murderous spirit of the Milwaukee Bucks is often hidden in this harmonious atmosphere.
After blocking Link, Antetokounmpo stepped up in two strides to get the basketball, and then counterattacked!
In just three or two steps, Antetokounmpo shook off all the Grizzlies players and headed straight for the basket.
Everyone held their breath, they knew the basket was going to die.
"Oh ho! Powerful tomahawk clasp! God, do you see? The rebounds are still shaking until now! The incredible Janis, he actually blocked Link, and he also completed the counterattack with a dragon! I think it's been a long time since anyone in this league could do anything like this to Link! ”
The game had just begun, and the on-site commentators yelled.
What about Antetokounmpo? He looked at Link and scratched his head embarrassedly, "Good luck, good luck, hehe." ”
This time, Link won't find Antetokounmpo "cute" anymore.
In Milwaukee, there's always a lull in the peace.
