Chapter 101 Shark Slashing Tactics

No one expected that the Grizzlies' first game against the Lakers would lose like this, and they would lose so simply.

In people's minds, the Grizzlies are extremely strong this year. How could they lose 20 points in a single game against a team like the Lakers? This is completely incredible.

Even Jiang Dongbing felt it was a bit incredible. It was really a bit outrageous that the Grizzlies' offensive efficiency was so sluggish tonight.

The team shot a total of 37 three-pointers tonight, but only four hits, with a roughly 10% hit rate, which almost made Jiang Dongbing vomit blood.

The key is that Jiang Dongbing has nowhere to vent his depression. The three-pointer is often related to luck. For example, in tonight's game, it is definitely not that the Grizzlies players are not attentive in the game, but that they are really not lucky.

Many balls were about to enter, but they turned out of the basket again as they were bumping.

Jiang Dongbing sighed with such a dismal hit rate. It is not unfair to lose at all. A team like the Grizzlies that focuses on three-point shooting has only a three-point shooting rate of more than 10%. Not to mention against the Lakers, it is probably difficult to win even against the Clippers.

When a team is strong, no matter what kind of tactics they arrange, it is correct. But if the team suffers a crushing defeat, analysts from all walks of life will find a place to use it.

Espn TV broadcast the game live. After the game host Jack Ellis and commentator Dave Coins began to analyze the reasons for the Grizzlies' defeat in this game.

Dave Coins is one of the top 50 superstars in history and has also embarked on the coaching path after retiring. He coached the Charlotte Hornets in the first half of this season, but was fired by the Hornets in the second half because of his poor record.

"Dave, what do you think is the reason for the Grizzlies' defeat tonight?" host Ellis pointed and asked Coins next to him.

Although Coins is not doing well in the coaching industry, he is still the top 50 superstars and is definitely qualified to comment on the competition.

"No reason, in fact, I have never been optimistic about the Grizzlies' playoff journey this year." Coins said with a faint smile.

Ellis immediately became interested and asked: "The Grizzlies have won the best record in the league. Dave, why are you not optimistic about the Grizzlies?"

"Their style of play is destined to be impossible to go long. I have never seen a team that wins the championship with three-pointers."

"The Grizzlies' regular season record is indeed very good, but everyone knows that the regular season and the playoffs are not the same, and the defense intensity is very different."

"I'm sure that the Grizzlies are definitely not that easy to pass the Lakers. Even if they pass the Lakers, it will be difficult for them to make a difference in the Western Conference Finals." Coins said confidently.

He said that the Grizzlies rely on three-pointers, which is actually true. In the eyes of Volkswagen, the Grizzlies are really a three-point team.

This season, the Grizzlies have averaged about 36.7 three-point shots per game, naturally ranked first in the league.

The Denver Nuggets coached by D'Antoni, as the second-most three-point shot in the league, have only 18.6 three-point shots per game, which is almost half that of the Grizzlies.

For teams like the Spurs, which are outrageously traditional, their three-pointers are only 10 times!

Most teams average between 13 and 15 three-pointers per game. Looking at the Grizzlies' three-pointer, they really seem out of place with other teams in the league.

So Coins said this not to target the Grizzlies. This is what a traditional player like him really thinks, and he is not optimistic about the shooting team.

Coins himself is a center forward. Seeing that the Lakers have players like O'Neal, he naturally feels that the Lakers have a greater chance of winning.

The host was very happy, and Coins's words would definitely spark heated discussion.

Sure enough, on the day Coins finished the live broadcast, basketball columnists from various media began to analyze in various ways. Some supportive Coins believed that the Grizzlies had made too many three-pointers, and they could not go too far in the playoffs.

Of course, there are also those who support the Grizzlies to shoot three-pointers, after all, the regular season record is there.

Jiang Dongbing also noticed these comments, but he had no intention of arguing at all. He had traveled through time from the future, and he knew better than anyone else whether this thing was good or not.

It seems that the Grizzlies have outrageously made three-pointers this year, but twenty years later, the Rockets averaged no more than 40 three-pointers per game in any season, and the most could even reach 45 per game. The Grizzlies' three-pointers were definitely a slim move.

At that time, which team averages three-pointers per game and does not shoot more than 30 times, it will be stung by someone. Some players can only shoot mid-range shots and not three-pointers, which will be even more scolded.

For example, Antetokounmpo and DeRozan are the best examples...

Three points will be a trend in the future, and Jiang Dongbing does not need to explain too much to the people in this era.

The crushing defeat in this game has nothing to do with the number of three-point shots. With such a miserable shooting percentage, no matter what you make, you will definitely not be able to escape the defeat.

And in this first game, Jiang Dongbing didn't use the shark-cutting tactics, mainly because the Lakers have always been leading too much, and the shark-cutting tactics are useless at such moments.

By the next game, the shark-cutting tactics may come in handy.

...

Before the second game started, Jackson and others sat listlessly in the home team's locker room. After seeing Jiang Dongbing come in, they all stood up to greet him.

In the loss in the last game, none of them were "innocent" and their performance was not very good.

"The last game is over, don't think too much."

"We must win this game tonight, and we will definitely win."

"Relax your mind and show you something fun tonight!" Jiang Dongbing comforted the generals and said.

Jackson and others couldn't help but get curious and watch something fun? What can be fun on the basketball court?

After the players from both sides entered the court, Jiang Dongbing could see O'Neal with a smile on his face from a distance.

O'Neal is now a little inflated. The first game beat the Grizzlies, which made him feel a little bit of imagination. Perhaps the biggest winner of this season will be their Lakers.

To this day, although O'Neal is a historical center, he has no championship at all. If he can win the championship this year, O'Neal thinks he is one step closer to winning the strongest center in history.

Thinking of this, O'Nealle's teeth were exposed.

"I hope you won't be so angry that you'll jump into the foot..." Jiang Dongbing smiled badly in his heart. He was looking forward to O'Neal's performance after being cut.

The shark-cutting tactic is definitely not a rare thing. In ancient times, a team used it on Zhang Dashuai, but it was used relatively roughly at that time and could not be called any tactics.

A few years ago, Old Nelson picked up this tactic and gave it a theoretical basis, which made the shark chopping tactic re-enter people's vision.
