290. Strange way to open(1/2)
During the warm-up, Sun Ce had been thinking of ways to make his teammates work harder. Although he was already very motivated and wanted to compete with the Lakers, he had to work harder.
Especially Gasol, who is most familiar with Gasol, is the key to dealing with Gasol. In his rookie year last season, Gasol became famous when he scored 17 points, 14 rebounds and 4 assists over his brother.
3 blocks, guarding his brother against 5 of 13...
But it was also urgent, because in the previous two games between the Grizzlies and the Lakers, Gasol was bullied by his brother, and it exploded in the third game.
However, when Gasol exploded, the Grizzlies did not beat the Lakers. To be precise, from the 2006-07 season when Kobe scored 60 points on the Grizzlies and conquered Gasol, the Grizzlies
Never beat the Lakers again.
It's time to play the Lakers. The Grizzlies players are so motivated because the Grizzlies have lost 11 consecutive games against the Lakers.
So Sun Ce has been helping his teammates find "hate" for the Lakers. Randolph doesn't have to look for it. After the All-Star voting ended, he said that if Gasol was selected for the All-Stars, he should also be selected. As the saying goes, a child who can cry
There is milk to eat, and I got it this time. By the way, I was also very unhappy with Kobe.
Gay's idol is McGrady, and fucking Kobe was a very important thing in his basketball career. What makes him despair is that in the first three years of entering the NBA, he played 11 games with the Lakers and lost them all... This year the Grizzlies have
In order to gain strength in the playoffs, he also wanted to kill Kobe.
However, Gasol's personality is a little too gentle. Like his brother, although his playing style is tough, he has a gentle personality, so Sun Ce needs to find a way to stimulate Gasol's fighting spirit...
Unexpectedly, Gasol had doubts!
"Although I have long wanted to beat him up... but Noah, how do you know that I was often beaten by my brother when I was a child? I haven't told anyone else!"
"Uh..." Did Sun Ce say that you broke the news yourself when you two brothers were selected for the All-Stars together in the future?
Could it be that you are actually a douchebag, and after you turn 30 in the future, you actually talk about missing the experience of being bullied by your brother when you were a child?
Sun Ce thought quickly and figured it out!
Sun Ce said nonsense: "This is what your brother is saying everywhere. He sees that you are getting better now and will soon be even better than him. He is worried that one day he will lose face to you on the court, so he keeps saying it everywhere.
This matter."
"real?"
"real!"
Sun Ce looked at Gasol with sincere eyes, his eyes filled with: Do you believe me...
So Gasol believed it!
"Damn Paul..."
The shadow of my childhood, that unbearable past, was actually talked about everywhere by my own brother!
Or are they not brothers anymore?
…
His teammates are very motivated and motivated. Sun Ce also tried every means to help his teammates find points of "hatred"; he carefully studied the opponent's offensive and defensive tactics before the game; he combined his own existing abilities and playing style with his own team's tactical system and opponents.
I have thought about my playing style, etc.; to improve my state to the best...
Sun Ce has done everything he can do, and now it’s up to the competition.
Amid shouts of "beat-la" from the audience, the two teams came onto the court.
The proud Lakers fielded a super lineup that they were proud of, with four stars including Kobe, Artest, Gasol, Bynum and an old fish next door.
A+ level, a+ level, s- level, s+ level... plus a c level, the lineup is incredibly strong.
The Grizzlies sent out a lineup of Conley, Battier, Gay, Randolph, and Gasol.
Gasol was ready to bully his younger brother again today, but as soon as he came on the court, he felt the murderous energy coming from the center circle.
Gasol felt his brother's evil gaze and was very surprised: "What happened to me today? He looked like he was going to do something. Didn't he say he had a girlfriend this afternoon?"
At 7:30 in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air...
Rare win on the jump ball!
Gasol actually won the jump ball over Bynum!
Conley received the ball, pushed forward with rhythm, and fell into a positional battle.
Kobe Bryant defends Conley, and Artest defends Gay. Generally speaking, a strong team has a point guard and a swingman who is the strong point in isolation, coupled with a pitcher. The Lakers have both Kobe and Artest.
The outside defense is a gatekeeper. The outside defense is so good that Fisher can just shout "666" from the side.
Although Kobe is 31 years old, his physical fitness is still much better than that of Conley. Conley did not force the ball, but lobbed the ball to Randolph who was stuck under the basket.
Gasol is very good at defending as a center, but his defense against power forwards is mediocre and won't hold him back. But it is obviously impossible to defend against Randolph.
Randolph hit Gasol fiercely. Gasol groaned and was crushed away. Randolph turned around. Bynum's defensive awareness under the basket was also top-notch, and he judged the direction of the left-handed Randolph's turn that was difficult to prevent.
, two big men measuring 2.15 meters caught Randolph!
One on two, against the Lakers' twin towers, even Randolph would have trouble shooting the ball.
But there is also a sister-in-law!
Randolph attracted a double attack and passed the ball to the right baseline. Gasol received the ball and made a jumper from the baseline...
Hit!
This kind of ball is purely based on individual ability to score the ball, and there is no strategy at all.
Offensive and defensive transition, the Lakers attack.
Fisher advanced the ball to the frontcourt and handed it to the boss before running towards the bottom corner.
As soon as Kobe received the ball, the crowd was booed.
Kobe loved the feeling of being booed!
…
When the Lakers were attacking, Sun Ce on the sidelines kept staring at Kobe. He actually laughed when he saw Kobe being booed!
"This guy has a tendency to be abused, right? He must be abused by Mrs. Wa every day at home!"
Watching Randolph rely on his personal ability to distribute the ball in singles on the court, Kobe Bryant on the Lakers team also simply distributed the ball in singles...
Sun Ce feels so stressed!
I remember when I was with the Warriors, I could play casually against the Lakers, there was no pressure at all, and it didn't matter if I lost anyway.
But now in the Grizzlies, a team with playoff potential, the pressure is completely different!
The game is currently evenly matched, with Randolph and Kobe having about the same efficiency in singles distribution, but Sun Ce knows that his side is falling behind!
On the Lakers side, Sun Ce felt that it was Zen Master who allowed Kobe to play in singles and allowed Kobe to open up so that he could lead well in the playoffs.
Has Gasol, the tactical core, begun to direct the team? The triangle offense has not started.
As for the Grizzlies, they have no choice but to play like this. The Lakers' forward defense is the best at the shooting guard position today, a former best defensive player, and a 30-year-old peak player who was selected as the second defense last season.
The defensive hero of the tail; the twin towers inside create a no-fly zone...
Randolph could only play hard in singles to attract a double attack and score the ball.
Randolph played several consecutive games and felt he needed a break. He began to open up space and tried to use Gasol to support him...
It doesn't seem to work very well.
However, after Kobe saw that Randolph, the only Grizzlies player who could compete with him, did not play alone, he also did not play alone. He handed the ball to Gasol, and Gasol organized the support, which seemed to be ineffective.
The Lakers defend well, the Grizzlies defend better!
The Lakers have two defensive masters at forward and back, and the same goes for the Grizzlies! Although Gay is not as good as Kobe in single defense and assistance, but if Kobe runs and catches the ball to end the offense, Gay actually defends pretty well, with more footwork than Kobe.
Kobe is fast and has a height advantage.
This was something Sun Ce didn't expect.
And... Gasol was more active on the defensive end today than before! His defense is better than Bynum and Gasol!
The Lakers relied on their personal abilities, and when tactics didn't work, they left it to Kobe and Bynum to end the offense with singles.
At the sixth and a half minute of the first quarter, the Grizzlies called a timeout.
13 to 12, the Grizzlies led by 1 point and entered the official timeout.
While Sun Ce was surprised that he and his opponent were playing very differently, Coach Hollins had anticipated such a situation... In fact, Coach Hollins felt that he should have an advantage at this stage.
The Lakers are famous this season for being wasteful in the first half, chasing points in the second half, and giving Kobe the buzzer-beater at the last moment. The Lakers have only played more than 40 games this season, and Kobe has already scored the buzzer-beater 4 times.
But I didn't expect that Kobe would start to work hard in the first quarter today, scoring 6 points and 2 assists in the first half of the quarter. Moreover, under the leadership of Kobe, the Lakers' defense actually played so well...
Coach Hollins looked at the rookie who made Kobe play so aggressively... "It's all this kid's fault!"
After entering the official timeout and listening to the tactical arrangements, Sun Ce went to the sidelines to do gymnastics to warm up. He was glared at and felt inexplicable...
Too lazy to pay attention to the head coach who might have entered menopause, Sun Ce kept paying attention to the big screen.
The Lakers also made substitutions, Jordan Farmar replaced Fisher, Odom replaced Bynum, Vujacic replaced Artest, Kobe moved to the small forward position, Gasso
I return to the center position.
Farmar + Vujacic...this is the key to Sun Ce's high score today!
To be continued...
