Curry made an emergency stop and Conley flew two meters away. Curry glanced at the basket and took a decisive shot.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit the net.
5:0!
The game continues.
This time the Grizzlies still played Gasol, but Azubuike came over again to attack, and Rudy Gay, who received the pass from Gasol, chose to shoot.
Basketball goes hollow into the net.
5:3!
The Grizzlies pulled back three points.
Warriors players don't care.
This is the price that must be paid for a flanking attack.
It’s something a warrior can bear.
The Warriors' strategy is to attack from a pincer attack, a tactic they have been practicing continuously for several days.
Why not play with DeAndre Jordan in the Twin Towers?
Because that will affect the offense.
Another reason is that even if Jordan plays, the defensive end will be more difficult.
This year's Jordan is only in his second year. On the defensive end, he relies more on his physical talent, which is instinct.
This kind of defense is of little use against the experienced Black and White Bears.
In fact, later generations of Jordan played for seven or eight years before becoming an elite defender.
What's more, even if Jordan defends well, once he hits the Twin Towers, he will play into the Grizzlies' hands.
As long as it grinds down the position and slows down the pace, that's what the Grizzlies want.
In this case, even if Jordan plays defense well, he still can't beat the Twin Towers!
I don’t care if you are good or not, as long as you are not good, that’s enough!
Of course, as long as you are not good, I will definitely not be bad!
Without Jordan, there is only one way to go.
A double attack will definitely give opportunities to outsiders.
However, as long as the Grizzlies shoot a three-pointer, it will be a victory for the Warriors!
The Warriors have nothing to fear compared to the three-pointers!
If you shoot a three-pointer, the ball will bounce farther if it doesn't go in, and the rebounding advantage of the Black and White Bears will be gone.
At the same time, the basketball bounces farther and is more suitable for fast breaks.
Once the fast break begins, the disadvantages of the Black and White Bears become apparent.
In addition, flanking will also cause the Black and White Bears to make more mistakes.
After all, this is the first year that the Black and White Bears have been together, and the Grizzlies are not familiar with the coordination.
Therefore, if you want to fight quickly, you must attack from a flank.
The double attack forces the Grizzlies to play on the perimeter, the double attack forces the Grizzlies to make turnovers, and the Warriors play fast break.
This will pick up the rhythm.
As long as the rhythm picks up, it doesn't matter even if the Grizzlies make a few three-pointers.
Because this is not the rhythm they are used to.
What if the Grizzlies open the field and lose the game?
Then admit it!
People can win against you using methods they are not used to, so what else can you do besides being convinced?
Deng Fang told the players several times about all this in the pre-match analysis meeting.
Therefore, the Warriors players didn't care when Rudy Gay made this three-pointer.
The game continues.
The Warriors' offense was the same as before. First, Curry ran without the ball, taking advantage of the slow movement speed of the Black and White Bears to find openings.
Lopez blocked Conley, and Black Bear Randolph had to change defense to chase Curry.
This is a very difficult challenge for him.
After repeating it two or three times, Curry found an opening.
Prince's ball was passed immediately.
Curry didn't hesitate, raised his hand and shot.
The basketball drew a beautiful arc in the air and hit the net.
Another three points!
The attack time only took ten seconds.
Slowly, the rhythm of the game was picked up by the Warriors.
There is no way, the Grizzlies just need to play inside, and the Warriors will attack from a double flank.
When the ball comes out, there is an open space, and there are still people inside. Do you want to shoot?
Okay, as long as you vote, that's it.
The Warriors will play as fast as they can.
If there is a fast break, rush forward without risking your life. If there is no fast break, don't waste time. If you can shoot, shoot, and if you can break, shoot.
In short, the number of rounds can be as many as possible.
As long as the black and white bears are allowed to run back and forth a few more times, the goal will be achieved.
Obviously, the grizzly bear is not used to this rhythm.
This is completely different from what happened during training.
How can you be so frantic in a flanking attack?!
Can we still have fun playing games together?
The result is that Conley, Mayo and Gay are very poor outside shooters.
Although there are many open opportunities, the Grizzlies' outside shooting rate is not ideal because they are always hesitant to shoot.
On the contrary, the Warriors' outside shooting percentage is very high.
Of course, this also has something to do with the grizzly bear's inability to guard against it.
It's hard for the Grizzlies to deal with Curry running without the ball, and it's even harder for the Grizzlies to deal with Curry and Lopez's pick-and-roll.
You asked Randolph to switch to Curry?
Isn’t Curry so cool?
You want to double-team Curry?
Wouldn’t it be very pleasant to cum outside of Big Lopez?
Assist in defense?
Aren’t the three of La Gabel so beautiful?
The Warriors usually don't do anything else but practice three-pointers most of the time!
This is exactly what they are used to doing and what they like to do!
The score was quickly extended.
Six minutes into the first quarter, the score between the two teams has become 23:12!
The Warriors lead by 11 points!
The Grizzlies had to call a timeout.
After the timeout, the Grizzlies came on the bench.
The Warriors also made several changes.
The Grizzlies replaced Gasol.
There is no way, the defensive end really can't beat the Warriors.
Replacing Gasol, the Grizzlies left Black Bear Randolph on the court.
In addition, the Grizzlies' substitutes include Carroll, Rudy Gay, Sam Young and Iverson.
Sam Young is completely a shooting guard who plays soy sauce and fills the minutes. His role is mainly defensive.
Carroll is pretty good, a practical role player, and he plays the three position.
Rudy Gay stays on the court as the small fourth position. He can stretch the space and play in isolation, so he is a good choice.
As for the No. 1 position, the backup point guard who replaced Conley was the famous Allen Iverson.
As we all know, Iverson's later years in his career can be said to be full of regrets.
Iverson was once the darling of the 76ers, leading the team out of the quagmire and reaching the Finals.
Unfortunately, due to declining records and intensified conflicts, even Iverson was inevitably traded.
After arriving in the Nuggets, Iverson and Anthony formed a golden duo, but the team still couldn't go any further, so the Nuggets sent him to the Pistons again.
The Pistons period was probably the turning point in Iverson's career. He averaged 26.4 points per game the year before, but he only averaged 17.4 points per game with the Pistons.
Iverson was really marginalized in the Motor City. Not only did he switch from No. 3 to No. 1, but he also took the blame for his poor record and was called a "cancer" by fans. In the end, because he didn't want to be a substitute, Iverson
Ferson and the Pistons broke up on bad terms and didn't even participate in the playoffs.
If the Pistons were the beginning of Iverson's misfortune, then the Grizzlies were the worst period of Iverson's career.
This summer, after going through a lot of ups and downs, Iverson signed a one-year minimum salary with the Grizzlies.
Originally, Iverson thought he could get a starting position in Memphis. However, after the start of the new season, Iverson found that he had to play as a substitute even on a weak team.
The Grizzlies' third-year rookie Conley will replace Iverson in the starting lineup. In the previous year's game, Conley only averaged 10.9 points, 3.4 rebounds and 4.3 assists per game.
This situation will definitely make Iverson unwilling.
And once Iverson opens up, it's not a good thing for the Warriors.
