"Cannon, strengthen your firepower, Conley is about to kill you!"

Obviously, he recovered a lot of points in the second quarter, but Erniu was still not satisfied.

In his opinion, the Clippers swept the Grizzlies in the regular season, and even though Randolph was plagued by injuries, the Clippers were still the dominant side overall, and the Clippers started with such a bad start in the first quarter.

The Bulls made their own answer in the second quarter, but in the first half, Paul shot 0-of-4 and scored 1 point from the free throw, and Paul should obviously step up and take more responsibility, which is the duty of the second leader.

Paul nodded, "I'll prove it to you in the second half!"

Receiving an affirmative response, Brute Bull rallied all the Clippers players and said, "It was a bad start, but we got through it.

The opposition is still very tenacious, and in addition to being aggressive on the defensive end, we also have to show enough momentum on the offensive end.

When we have the opportunity, we will resolutely take action, and we will never hesitate at any time, and everyone must always believe that we will be the ultimate winner. ”

As the leader of the dynasty, Erniu's words are undoubtedly full of persuasiveness.

In the competitive arena where the strong are respected, strength and achievements are the most influential representatives.

When Paul first came to the Clippers, the reason why he wanted to say goodbye to Erniu was because he was not sure if the Celestial Empire would be able to return to the top after being seriously injured.

After a season of running-in, Paul is almost convinced, and the title of "active first person", Kraft Nguyen is indeed well-deserved.

Thibodeau then highlighted the need to look out for on the defensive end and highlighted Martin's defense against Marc Gasol in the second quarter.

Kenyon Martin's free throws are worse than Jordan Jr.'s, and his athleticism, which has deteriorated due to injury, can't be compared to Jordan Jr.'s.

But judging from this game alone, he is indeed the player who is more suitable to defend Xiaojia than Uncle Huang.

The ironclad facts once again prove that defense requires time and experience.

At halftime, the ESPN commentators in charge of the game were Jeff Van Gundy, Mike Brin and Joan Barry, the son of former Rockets player and Clippers consultant and shooting assistant coach Rick Barry.

"Alright, it's time to evaluate the performance of both teams in the first half!" Mike Brin said first.

Jeff Van Gundy then laughed: "Each played a good game, and the same was played with the individual ability of the players, why does it always feel like the Grizzlies are playing more holistically, while the Clippers are relying on superstars to score?"

Joan Barry continued: "That's because the Clippers have a higher superstar slot, and it's Hollywood!"

That's right, with the Lakers eliminated early, the bored Hollywood superstar can only enjoy the game by buying a season ticket to the Clippers.

For example, former California Governor Schwarzenegger on the sidelines, Captain Jack Johnny Depp, and Xiao Lizi, who continues to accompany the Oscars, should have a well-deserved superstar on the occasion full of superstars, and at present, the brightest superstars in Los Angeles are self-evident.

Mike Brin then turned the conversation to the cliché of free throws, saying to Joan Barry: "Jordan Jr.'s free throws this season reached a 'staggering' 65% or more in the second half of the season, and in fact, neither the Jazz nor the Grizzlies have hacked Jordan Jr. in the playoffs this season, do you think Rick Barry's teaching worked?"

Joan Barry laughs: "The game and the data speak for themselves, many people have commented on the ugly posture of pouring the toilet, but I think my dad is right, the more so-called ugly concept, the penalty should be the most shameful." ”

In the end, the conversation turned to the core of the Clippers.

Jeff Van Gundy concluded: "The Clippers are still a duo team, CP3 was mediocre in the first half, and he should bounce back in the second half. Otherwise, Kraft Nguyen will need to save the team by himself again!"

Mike Brin laughs: "You seem to be more expecting the latter to happen?"

Van Gundy nodded solemnly and said: "Watching Kraft Nguyen's game, you have to be ready to check the information at any time, because he may break a new record at any time!"

……

At the start of the second half, the Grizzlies had the ball.

Conley took advantage of Gasol's cover in the high post, and after a tentative step, it was a dry shot to meet Paul's defense.

"Brush!"

Three-point hit!

On the offensive end of the Clippers, Paul and Erniu collided with the wall, and Paul, who entered the interior, hit a difficult board to hit two points, and also caused a foul on Randolph, who was misplaced on defense.

The penalty is also in the middle, and the score is 2+1!

At the beginning of the third quarter, Paul did prove himself on the offensive end, but Mike Conley on the opposite side also ushered in a burst.

Three-pointers from step back, three-pointers on the move after a steal, Gasol hit a strong inside to attract the defense, and Conley hit another three-pointer after receiving a pass from the bottom corner.

In just 3 minutes, Conley shot 4 of 4 three-pointers, and there was a wave of ferocious three-point rain, but fortunately, Paul also made a difference on the offensive end, hitting 17-18 feet in a row, although the scoring efficiency was not as good as Conley's, but finally did not let the situation collapse.

The Grizzlies are indeed tough enough, knowing that the Black Bear Randolph can't go head-to-head with Erniu, Gasol Jr. and Conley have stepped up to maintain offensive output for the team.

In the third quarter, the Clippers still trailed by nearly double digits, which really made the Angelenos who wanted to win the championship feel aggrieved.

Nguyen Er Niu slowed down his offensive tempo a little in the quarter, but as the team's point of response, he dished out six assists in a single quarter, two for Paul, three for Redick, and one for Kawaii.

Redick began to hit a series of three-pointers in the second half of the quarter to help the team quickly recover the score.

Conley is good on the offensive end, but on the defensive end, he can't handle the Redick who keeps running.

It's true that the Grizzlies made the Clippers play hard, but they didn't play hard themselves.

Rudy Gay, the team's leading scorer, didn't take advantage of Leonard and Battier in the slightest.

Judging from the data alone, Guy's playing time is basically the sum of the two, but in terms of efficiency, kawaii and the president have completed the same scoring data with fewer shots.

At 27:28, the Clippers recovered 1 point again in this quarter, don't look at the two sides playing so lively, but the score gap has not changed much.

At the end of the third quarter, the total score of the two sides came to 85:81, and the Clippers still trailed their opponents by four points.

In the final quarter, neither side had a way out.

Then, the Clippers' Nick Young stepped up again to take over the game, as he did during the second quarter of the rotation.

Yang Shaoxia, who shoots with his hand, can't care so much, whether it is OJ Mayo who is responsible for defending him, or Tony Allen, who has to return to the court early, Nick Yang, who feels hot, only has the basket in his eyes.

"Brush!", "Brush!", "Brush!"

Unreasonable, unreasonable, or unreasonable!

When Ruan Erniu on the bench couldn't help jumping up and frantically making three-point gestures, the transformation of the situation on the court was also visible.

Hollins reluctantly asks for a timeout, and the Grizzlies are stopped!

Nick Young returned to the Clippers bench like a hero, Erniu gave him a strong hug, and Jordan Jr. had a passionate shoulder bump with him.

Seriously, if Yang Shaoxia had come to the Clippers earlier, maybe there would have been a lot of suspense about the best sixth man this season.

The Grizzlies, who were brainless and crazy A by Yang Shaoxia, finally failed to hold on, and were able to drag the game to the third quarter and still maintain the lead, which was already a super-level performance of this team.

When Erniu and Paul quickly returned to the court, the game instantly tilted sharply to the side of the Clippers.

Erniu first used his low-post offense to scuttle the Grizzlies' chest for the Clippers, and then Paul was not soft at the critical moment, bypassing Tony Allen, facing Gasol Jr. to make it 2+1, and then hit a chase three-pointer in the offensive and defensive transition.

The rhythm was really well controlled, and the grizzlies were powerless to parry.

The icing on the cake was Shaun Battier, who hit back-to-back three-pointers from beyond three-point range when the score extended to more than 10 points, helping the team to take the game in a wave.

At 13:42, it's one thing for the Clippers to play well, but if they can win nearly 30 points by their opponents in a single quarter, it is not difficult to see that the Grizzlies are indeed lacking in follow-up.

At 98:123, the Clippers played a crazy attack wave in the final quarter, and won the second round G1 amid the non-stop cheers of the fans at the scene.

Ruan Erniu scored 36 points, 22 rebounds, and 12 assists in a big triple-double, and if this trend continues, he will continue to dominate the NBA playoffs in the future on the 30+20+10 data list.

This is also the case, because aside from the data that are difficult to analyze in ancient times, in today's NBA list, Ruan Erniu has won more than 30+20+10 in the playoffs 7 times in his career, which is the only existence.

Because throughout history, the record for other players in this technical statistic is 0!

There is no one before and no one after us!

Fewer and fewer people question the status of Kraft Nguyen's first active man, and when incredible records are broken or created by the Celestial Empire, it is undoubtedly too mentally retarded to say some negative words.

Let's be honest, this is the era that belongs to Kraft Nguyen!

Coming back to this game, from a team perspective, the biggest loss for the Grizzlies is undoubtedly on the three-point shot.

The Grizzlies hit 11 of 16 three-pointers, but the Clippers hit 20 of their 30 shots.

The biggest difference between the two teams is that one is really capable of shooting threes, and the other is really lacking in three-point shooters.

The speed of evolution of the NBA is amazing, and Erniu actually has a hunch that in the future NBA, if a team does not average 30+ three-point shots per game, it may become an alternative side.

At that point, a truly strong team will have at least 3-4 consistent three-point shooters, and the traditional joint defense will be further weakened, and infinite rotation will be the undisputed mainstream of defense in the future.

In other words, in the future development of basketball, the winner must be the one who takes the initiative in the highly offensive and defensive and various dislocation confrontations.

Grizzlies coach Hollins said in his postgame press conference: "We lost in the final quarter, and we did a pretty good job defending in the first three quarters, but we collapsed in the final quarter. It's disappointing, but it's only the first game of the series and we're going to do even better in the future." ”

Erniu didn't hear Hollins speak in the background, and if he did, he was afraid that he would laugh out loud.

That's right, as early as the Eagles' three-in-a-row championship, Erniu and Mike Woodson discussed the configuration of the top team, which can be summed up in just four Chinese words - both offensive and defensive.

Those who insist on believing in KFC's phrase "offense wins the game, defense wins the championship" will be eliminated by history sooner or later.

The reason why KFC has the ability to say this rather compelling nonsense is, in the final analysis, because whether it is the Bulls dynasty or the Lakers dynasty, with Jordan, Pippen, O'Neal, Kobe and others, where does Jackson need to worry about the lack of offensive talent.

Ruan Erniu also attended the press conference afterwards.

When asked what allowed the Clippers to take the game away in the final quarter, the bull smiled and said, "Shoot the ball!"

What the?

Gone?

Right!

I'm sorry, you may not be able to do whatever you want if you have money, but the winner can really pretend to be forced casually!

……

The Clippers who won G1 had plenty of rest, and three days later, they continued to sit at the Staples Center and battle the Grizzlies for G2.

The game in G2 was quite different from G1's progression, and Paul learned the lessons of G1 from the start and stepped up his aggression in the first quarter.

In fact, Tony Allen is better at dealing with top swingmen, but he doesn't have that obvious advantage when defending three shots.

Misalignment is never only the oppression of the tall to the short, but also the short side can use agility to find the advantage of misalignment.

Paul, who scored 10 points in a single quarter, led the team to a 30-23 lead to end the first quarter of the game.

But in the second quarter of the game, the Clippers, who had the advantage of rotation time in the last game, ran into trouble.

Yang Shaoxia may have been burdened with idol baggage, and he didn't have a strong desire to shoot on the offensive end, only hitting one three-pointer on 1-of-2 shooting, but on the Grizzly side, OJ Mayo and Speights did hit with two fists to help the team quickly overtake the score.

In particular, Speights, who was later nicknamed "Stei" by Celestial Empire fans (Speights' tattoo on his left shoulder is a huge "Emperor") became the X-factor of this section.

Stie made 3 of 4 shots in a single quarter, scored 6 points and 3 rebounds, and brought the most important firepower support to the team in the limited rotation time.

To put it mildly, the Grizzlies don't lack defense, they just need players to step up and score.

On the Clippers side, in addition to Paul continuing to maintain a high level of output, most of the Clippers players, including Erniu, fell into a scoring drought, and failed to seize the scoring opportunity several times in the open spot.

At halftime, at 51:49, the Grizzlies had already overtaken by 2 points.

Fortunately, in the second half, Ruan Erniu, who had slept in the half, ushered in a rampage, and when he only scored 8 points in the half, the Bull Demon King hit 6 three-pointers in the third quarter of the game, and even cut and punished 24 points in a single quarter.

Is it a lot?

Come on, this guy is the man who scored 38 points in a single quarter in the Eastern Conference finals in the 09-10 season.

Relatively speaking, the number of 24 points in a single quarter seems to be nothing to Ruan Erniu.

After that, there was no suspense at all, the Grizzlies were hammered out again, and the Clippers also successfully closed the game.

2:0, the Clippers will move to Memphis with a huge score advantage for the second round of G3 and G4.
