Chapter 243 Reverse and win, prepare for treatment!

Although the Grizzlies cannot compare with the Rockets in terms of strength, they have always been known for their toughness.

From the very beginning, the Black and White Bears resolutely destroyed the inside line.

The two of them were particularly targeting the Rockets' rookie power forward, Blake Griffin.

There is no doubt about Gelifen's strength. In the original time and space, he posted terrifying statistics of 2010 in his first season.

But Griffin also has a slightly derogatory nickname - Tyrannosaurus Rex, to describe his short wingspan.

Of course, Griffin's wingspan is actually within a reasonable range. It's definitely not short, but it's just not outstanding.

However, his defensive ability is indeed not that powerful due to his static talent.

In the original time and space, the Clippers, led by the three All-Stars Paul Griffin and DeAndre Jordan, suffered repeated setbacks. A big reason was the lack of defensive capabilities in the penalty area.

Especially when facing the Grizzlies, any one of the Black and White Bears facing Griffin will use their height (Gasol Jr.) or wingspan (Randolph) to crush him.

But today, when they met the young Griffin, the two bears were naturally not polite and kept attacking him.

It can be said that this was the most uncomfortable game for Lifen this season.

Although Yao Ming is tall and has long arms and is not afraid of two bears, his defensive ability is actually relatively average among top centers.

After losing weight, his foot movement speed has increased, but it is not to the extent that he can defend everywhere.

As a result, Griffin was soon forced to take a rest due to a foul problem.

After that, Tucker was replaced.

The shoe king's defensive ability is naturally much better than Griffin's.

But facing Randolph, who was born with great power, he also struggled.

Although the Big Black Bear didn't play as smoothly as he did against Griffin, he still had the upper hand.

After a few rounds, Mark Jackson changed his lineup again and replaced Birdman-Chris Anderson.

Anderson is a different type of defender again.

His presence on the court has indeed improved the Rockets' interior defense.

Randolph was still using brute strength to fight with Tucker just a moment ago.

But now, Anderson chooses to avoid its edge and only uses his excellent bounce to interfere after the big black bear takes action.

However, the Birdman's defensive effect only lasted a few minutes.

The experienced Randolph quickly adapted to Anderson's defensive strategy.

He only made a slight adjustment, which caused a huge change in the matchup situation - he took the initiative to engage in physical confrontation with Anderson before every shot!

As a result, it will be difficult for the birdman to get into the air, and naturally he will not be able to protect the basket.

In this way, relying on the black and white bears to dominate the interior, the Grizzlies ended the first quarter with a 30:25 lead over the Rockets by five points.

This situation is somewhat unexpected.

Shen Fei in front of the TV was still calm.

He turned to Oden and said: "An opponent like the Grizzlies can actually be dealt with with the twin towers."

Oden nodded repeatedly: "If I guard Zach, at least I won't let him score so easily. My size and wingspan are not weaker than his."

Shen Fei smiled slightly when he heard this.

Auden's words were somewhat modest.

As a genius who can beat Durant to become the No. 1 pick, how high his talent is can be visually demonstrated with a set of data:

Oden's height after wearing shoes is 2.13 meters, and his wingspan reaches 2.24 meters;

Standing reach height is 2.84 meters; jumping on the spot is 0.81 meters.

The run-up jump is 0.86 meters; the run back and forth in the penalty area takes 11.67 seconds, and the three-quarter sprint only takes 3.27 seconds...

To put it simply, as a big man, Oden is not only tall and long-armed, and can jump well, but his speed and flexibility are not inferior to those of a small man.

This is why he is called a genius who comes only once in 50 years, and is also nicknamed "The Great".

You know, this title was inherited by Embiid in the original time and space.

And Oden's multiple physical test data are even more terrifying than Embiid!

If he were to face off against Randolph, the Big Black Bear would probably only have a slight advantage in terms of strength, and the rest would be at a disadvantage.

"So, you have to be prepared. There will be many teams that will use you in the future."

Shen Fei said with a smile.

Nowadays, the emperor, who lacks confidence, needs the affirmation of others most.

Oden nodded repeatedly, and then asked curiously: "It seems that we can't solve Randolph's problem. How can we reverse the situation next?"

"This depends on Mark's on-the-spot command. I can think of at least two ways to deal with Randolph."

"One is to simply ignore this problem and fight against the grizzlies. With our firepower, we can kill them alive."

"One is to change to a smaller lineup and consume Randolph's physical strength on the offensive end. He is so heavy that he won't be able to run a few more times on the defensive end."

Shen Fei said in a relaxed tone.

He looked confident of victory, as if the Grizzlies were behind instead of the Rockets.

Auden was thoughtful after hearing this, and after a moment he nodded in agreement again.

............

In the end, Mark Jackson chose the second method Shen Fei thought of.

At the beginning of the second quarter, he sent out five small lineups-Curry, McGrady, Danny Green, George, and Tucker.

These five people are all about two meters tall, and they all have excellent shooting abilities.

Such a lineup can maximize the space on the court, and the offensive firepower is terrifying to the naked eye.

As soon as the Grizzly Bear generals saw the opponent's formation, they were instantly confused!

[Didn’t we beat them inside in the first quarter? Why did they put all the big men on the bench instead?]

[Are you giving up on yourself and giving up treatment?]

...

Many questions came to their minds, and they all turned to look at the coaching bench, but the only response was the equally confused look from their coach, Hollins.

In desperation, the Grizzlies generals could only step onto the court with a step-by-step mentality.

"People like Grizzly Bear can be seen through the TV screen from their body language..."

"They weren't prepared for our small lineup."

Shen Fei said lightly.

At this moment, he had already foreseen the Rockets' amazing shock wave in the second quarter.

And the reality soon unfolded according to the imagination of the Asian youth!

As soon as they came up, Curry and McGrady each hit a three-pointer, instantly leading the score.

The mentality of the Grizzlies players also changed as a result.

They want to repeat the successful pattern of the first quarter and attack the Rockets in the paint.

However, at this moment, the five members of the Rockets are all moving very fast.

When Randolph catches the ball, a wing player will double-team him.

When the Big Black Bear faced a double attack, its shortcomings of insufficient passing ability were revealed.

In a panic, his pass was intercepted by George, and the Rockets launched a counterattack.

During the fast break, McGrady used a powerful tomahawk dunk, leaving the Grizzlies home court in complete silence.

8:0!

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Rockets hit a climax and quickly took the lead.

Although Hollins called a timeout in time, it did not have much effect.

In the following games, the Rockets resolutely adopted a double-teaming tactic against Randolph and used the players' mobility to quickly rotate on the defensive end.

Therefore, even if the Big Black Bear passes the ball, other Grizzlies players will not get a good shot.

Looking back at the Rockets, with sufficient space on the court, Curry, McGrady, George and others showed their talents.

Pull-up three-pointers, breakthroughs with the ball, post-ups...

The Grizzlies' defense was completely defeated by the three of them.

As time went on, the Rockets not only overtook the score, but also widened their lead.

At the end of the third quarter, they once again took a big lead over their opponents and made the game lose its suspense.

When Shen Fei saw this, he didn't waste any more time and turned off the TV in advance.

"This game is a sure win, there is no need to watch it anymore."

"By the way, I have prepared all the medicinal materials needed for treatment, and they can be implemented tomorrow."

"Tomorrow morning, you can come to the training hall to find me."

Shen Fei said with a smile.

"???"

Auden's eyes widened instantly.

[You only think of such an important thing now?! Could it be that you almost forgot it?!]

The emperor roared in his heart.

But he quickly adjusted his mentality and said excitedly: "Okay boss, I will be there on time tomorrow!"
