N'Golo Kante was hostile to Link, but it didn't work, he could only watch from the bench first. After all, in possession of Al. Jefferson and Paul. In Millsap's case, N'Golo Kante, a sophomore, naturally struggled to get a starting position.

Speaking of which, although Kante was last year's top pick, he has only had two starts in his career so far, which is miserable enough.

Before the game began, Link deliberately glanced at the Jazz bench and gave Kanter a playful smile.

Kante's fists clenched, his joints turning white from too much force. More provocative than provocative, Kante is a younger brother in front of Link.

Sometimes Link's expression can make people angry.

Kante will clean up later, and Link will turn his attention back to the pitch.

The Jazz's starting five Tigers are very stable and will not be replaced unless there are injuries.

The two defenders are "Mo Bu Chuan" Mo. Williams and Randy. Foye. Up front, Hayward and Millsap were partnered. In the center position, standing is the strong and weak Al. Jefferson.

On paper, the Jazz's lineup isn't bad either. I have to say that they do have the quality to play in the playoffs.

The confidence and expectations of Salt Lake City fans are not unfounded, and the Jazz are 0.5 wins behind the Rockets in eighth place. So even in front of the first place in the league, the Jazz must fight to the end.

The referee motioned for both teams to get ready, and Link focused his eyes on Gordon. Hayward.

Don't look at Kante as the most ferocious, but the most threatening thing for the Jazz is actually this seemingly elegant white forward.

Hayward still has messy hair, white and clean, which doesn't match the NBA's wild style at all.

If this guy hadn't played basketball, he would have become an esports player. For him, the greatest pleasure besides basketball is the game.

Hayward is a very simple person, and he treats life as well as basketball.

Therefore, even against Link, he will focus on the basketball itself.

Stevens sat on the pitch with inexplicable excitement, two of the best strikers he had ever coached, and he was about to go head-to-head.

The referee's whistle blew, and Gasol Jr. took advantage of his height to win the basketball. Hayward followed Link intently, and the moment Link made contact with Hayward, Link clearly felt Hayward's progress.

This guy's body is so sturdy!

When he first entered the league, Hayward was also very thin. But in the past two years, he has successfully gained weight and muscle, and he is fully able to adapt to NBA-level confrontations.

Link must admit that it was a bit difficult to confront Hayward. Hayward is not only strong against confrontation, but he is also not afraid of confrontation.

Anyway, the Jazz are playing team offense, and they don't need one person to step up. As a result, Hayward is also very willing to put his energy on the defensive end.

Link didn't have the ball in the first round, but Iguodala took advantage of his height to win the ball in Randy. Foye scored a goal in front of him. But even so, Link was able to experience Hayward's excellence on the defensive end.

Although he was scored by the opponent, Hayward did not have the slightest look of annoyance. He immediately reflexively ran to the front, and this guy's mood was very stable.

Offense, that's where the Jazz excel.

Mo. Williams held the ball firmly across half court before handing it to Millsap from beyond the three-point line.

Millsap holds the ball in a high position, although he plays the No. 4 position, but he can actually shoot, dribble and pass, and live as a small forward. If he hadn't been too slow, he might have been better suited to play the number three.

Millsap had just received the ball when Hayward suddenly activated and leaned towards Millsap.

Millsap understood and exchanged hands with Hayward. The moment he handed the ball to Hayward, he also turned sideways and stopped Link.

Millsap is about the same height as Link, and he's not much bigger, but the cover is really solid!

As a second-round pick, Millsap learned everything from Boozer. So much so that now, he can do very well in various fields.

After Hayward received the basketball, he saw that Link was blocked, so he stopped and shot directly outside the three-point line!

Because the Jazz don't pay enough attention, everyone seems to have the impression that Hayward has always been an off-ball shooter.

When he first entered the league, he did have the style of an off-ball shooter, but now, it is long gone.

Link raised his hand and rushed forward, but to no avail. Hayward's shot was very well timed, without hesitation, and therefore did not leave Link with an opportunity to interfere with the shot.

In the next second, the basketball crossed a rainbow arc and fell straight into the net!

As soon as he came up, Hayward, who didn't say anything, gave Link a dismount!

"The ball is in! Hayward scored a goal on Link's head as soon as he opened the game! When Owen and Vitesse were once beaten by Link, when the No. 3 players were overshadowed by Link's defense. Gordon. Hayward, however, proved his resolve in an extremely brave way! ”

The local commentators in Salt Lake City couldn't be happier, indeed, they are all third-graders, and Hayward is no longer at the same level as Link.

But that lad is brave enough and good enough, and that's enough!

Hayward smiled happily after scoring the goal, like a kid who struggled to throw the ball in basketball when he was a kid.

Stevens was extremely pleased to see that Hayward could not forget his original intention in the NBA, a business league.

At the same time, he was worried, worried about the Grizzlies. It is not difficult to see from the offense and defense at the beginning that the Jazz are in very good shape today.

They are well prepared!

"If you have this kind of ball, you can change the defense, that guy shoots quickly!" Link communicated with Randolph, Link looked at the data yesterday, Hayward's three-point shooting rate this season is as high as 41.5%, and he doesn't dare to let him go easily.

The Grizzlies attacked for the second time, and this time, Conley still wanted to play with Iguodala.

The most shabby thing about the Jazz lineup is this guard line. Williams and Randy. Foye is very short and very easy to be caught and beaten by the opponent.

Iguodala deliberately sat into the middle distance this time. Turning his back to Conley for the ball, and after receiving the basketball, Iguodala was ready to turn around immediately, trying to cut into the basket with his stronger body.

However, Iguodala was only halfway through the turn when he felt stuck.

Randy. Foye stuck Iguodala so hard that he couldn't turn around! Just when Iguodala was panicking, Foye grabbed the basketball with his hands!

"Randy. Foye made the steal and the Jazz got a chance to break fast! ”

Foye's defense is not very good, but it is mainly due to his short height and slow speed.

When it comes to confrontation, the strong Foye is not afraid of anyone. So just now, he even stuck the incomparably strong Iguodala!

The Jazz team fought hard, even Foye, who was not good at defense. Facing Iguodala, who is 5 centimeters taller than him but stronger, Foye did not have the slightest stage fright.

This spirit is exactly what Grizzly bears are most worried about right now. This kind of spirit can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of a team.

Link in Randy. The moment Foye stealed, he began to retreat, and after Foye stealed, he immediately gave the ball to Xiao Mo, who was running in front. Mo. Williams had no one in front of him when he got the ball, but he still looked back behind him.

Link is the closest to Xiao Mo, but there are still about two positions away from him.

Seeing this, Xiao Mo confirmed that he was safe. So I took two big strides and got ready for the layup!

Mo. Williams didn't see the fans' surprised expressions, otherwise he would have given up on the decision to go to the basket.

Jazz fans only saw Link approach Mo at an incredible speed, and then jump at the same time!

Mo who is making a layup. Unbeknownst to Williams, he has become the prey of the "Bear King".

Watching Link soar higher and higher in the air, many Jazz fans closed their eyes.

"Smack!" The basketball made a loud bang and bounced back after hitting the rebound.

Mo. Williams is tragically chased by Link!

"He's definitely the most risk-taking small forward in the active league!" The narrator stood up excitedly, a nickname that had belonged to James and Josh and now fell to Link.

The audience exclaimed, Link's block was too merciless. The Jazz had just experienced a round of "sweetness" before being slapped back to reality by Link.

If you want to win against the Memphis Grizzlies, you can't just grit your teeth!

Link gets the rebounded basketball and prepares to advance with the ball.

But at this moment, a loud roar came from the Jazz bench.

"What kind of ability is it to bully a little man?"

The one who shouted was N'Golo Kante, who was complaining about his team-mate.

Link ignored it and continued to push forward.

As for N'Golo Kante...... Hopefully, Jazz coach Tyrone today. Corbyn, give him a few more minutes.
