The Western Conference semifinals are about to begin, and the major media in the United States have also begun to report on it, and several major media have made predictions for the four sets of matchups. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Heat vs. Pacers, this set of matchups is considered to be a matchup without suspense, because last year's Pacers were only a first-round team, and this year relied on the addition of David West to rush into the second round, but this does not mean that the Pacers have the strength to challenge the Heat, ESPN believes that the Heat will solve the Pacers within five games.

76ers vs. Celtics, ESPN thinks the Celtics will use their experience to beat the 76ers, and this series could end in four games.

Thunder vs. Lakers, ESPN believes that the Thunder's chances of winning are obviously higher than the Lakers, whether it is the youth of the lineup, or the state of the core players, and the state of this season, the Thunder are far better than the Lakers, ESPN made a prediction, they believe that the Thunder will end this series within six games.

The matchup between the Grizzlies and the Spurs was set by ESPN as the most evenly matched matchup in the second round of the playoffs, and the reason why ESPN would have this idea is very simple, because in the playoffs last season, the Grizzlies defeated the Spurs, and this season, it is obvious that the Grizzlies are stronger, although the Spurs are also stronger, but the two stronger teams, doesn't it just mean that they are evenly matched?

The Western Conference semifinals with the Grizzlies began quickly, and before the game began, the league announced the winner of the Most Improved Player, and Ryan Anderson from the Magic won the award.

Successive awards have been announced, and the playoffs have gradually entered the state.

At the AT&T arena, the Spurs welcomed their Western Conference semifinals opponents, and for the Grizzlies, Spurs fans showed their unfriendly side, and last season's Black Eight is still vivid!

For the Spurs, the Western Conference semifinals against the Grizzlies could not be better, and now, they really have a chance to complete their revenge.

"Hello viewers, this is TNT Sports Television, and we will bring you the first game of the NBA Western Conference semifinals between the San Antonio Spurs and the Memphis Grizzlies, the first game starts in San Antonio, and I am Mike Tyrick today's commentator. ”

"I'm Mike's partner, Hubby Brown. ”

TNT sent Mike Tyrick as the host of this game, and as the former head coach of the Grizzlies, Hubby Brown must know the Grizzlies very well, so the Warriors TNT chose Hubby Brown to partner with Mike Tyrick.

On the court, the Spurs and Grizzlies were warming up, Anxi stretched his legs with the help of physical coach Matt Herring, before the game, Popovich told Anxi that in this game, Anxi may have to play a cameo role as a big forward against Zach Randolph, so this game Anxi is destined to be hard, and Popovich specially asked Matthering to help Anxi warm up.

"Hubi, let's talk about your predictions for this round first?"

However, as a veteran coach of the league, in the face of Mike Tirick's question, Hubi Brown answered very seriously: "My opinion is the same as many people, the Spurs and the Grizzlies are evenly matched opponents, who wins and who loses, it depends on the on-court performance, but just looking at the state, it must be the Spurs who are slightly better, so I think this round of the series, the final advance will be the Spurs." ”

Hubby Brown's answer is very rational, from the perspective of strength, it is true that the Spurs do not have much advantage over the Grizzlies, but if you look at the state, the Spurs are definitely far superior to the Grizzlies, so what Hubby Brown said is that it will be the Spurs who will be promoted in the end, which can be regarded as a rational answer.

The game started quickly, and Mike Tirick began to introduce the starting lineup for this game: "The game started, and the starting lineup for this game was as follows, on the Spurs' side, starting point guard Tony Parker, shooting guard Anxi, small forward Kowhi Leonard, power forward Boris Dior and center Tim Duncan. ”

The Grizzlies' starting lineup is point guard McConley, shooting guard Tony Allen, small forward Rudy Gay, power forward Zach Randolph and center Marc Gasol. ”

There was no change in the starting lineups of both sides, but Anxi got the task given by Popovich, and on the defensive end, he had to mention the position of power forward, against Zach Randolph, and Toni Allen's offensive ability was lacking, so it was enough to hand it over to Boris Dior to defend.

At the beginning of the game, Marc Gasol grabbed the ball, McConley advanced to the frontcourt, and Anxi directly stuck to Zach Randolph.

McConley faced Tony Parker's defense, passed Tony Parker in one step, rushed to the restricted area and gave the ball to Marc Gasol, and the Grizzlies scored two points first.

Anxi sent a baseline ball from the baseline, Tony Parker quickly advanced to the frontcourt, and the Spurs' offense began.

Popovich got up from the bench on the sidelines, and before the game, Popovich had made some adjustments to the Grizzlies' defense, but he didn't know if those adjustments would help.

Spurs' offense, as soon as Tony Parker arrived in the front court, he began to cut in with the ball, and at the same time, Anxi also quickly used the cover to go around to the outside line, and then received Tony Parker's pass inside and outside, Anxi held the ball and also began to cut inside.

The Grizzlies' coach's bench, Lionel Hollins, was also keeping an eye on all of this, and when he saw the Spurs' offense, he was also aware of some of Popovich's tweaks.

"Is it a way to increase the cut in the pass and break down our defense through the inside and outside? Lionel Hollins frowned, and he stood on the sidelines, watching the Spurs' attack.

Anxi's inside cut was also not successful, and his inside pass went directly to Tim Duncan's hands, Tim Duncan took the ball and dribbled a few steps inside, and then shot in the middle, and the basketball hit the basket and didn't go in.

Popovich on the sidelines was still expressionless, but his frequent back and forth movement had already revealed his current mood, and the Spurs' first wave of attack failed, and it seemed that his adjustment was very ineffective.

Popovich scratched his head, he was ready to continue to see the situation.

The game continued, but the Spurs' offense got bogged down in the Grizzlies' defensive quagmire, and the Spurs' offense was lost under the Grizzlies' extremely physical defense.

After the first quarter, the Spurs actually fell behind by 7 points, this season, the Spurs rarely played in this situation, but for Popovich, he still has a backhand, but he has no confidence in his backhand now, and he found that for the Grizzlies' defense, just the adjustment arranged before the game is far from enough.
