863.The Incredible Troika (2nd Update 5K)
Why didn't the Grizzlies spray as much on Guy's departure?
In addition to Paul George, who has already shown visible talent in his rookie season, there is also the Grizzlies who traded Nash back!
This is a giant-level player! The assist king of the past two seasons!
Popovich also thought that snatching Guy would at least not make it possible for the Grizzlies to have one more outside point of possession right away, although Guy as a point of possession is mainly a single shot, but Popovich still strengthened himself at the same time, delaying the upgrade of the Grizzlies' forward line to a certain extent, although it also solved the situation that the small forward position talent was too overflowing for the Grizzlies, but Paul George wants to have Guy's scoring ability, at least two more years of practice.
But the Grizzlies effortlessly promoted Conley to Nash......
The key is that the Mavericks just want to change the point guard position and seize the final peak of Nowitzki and Yao Ming, if there is only Nowitzki alone, Cuban will hesitate to rebuild directly after winning the championship, but Yao Ming is also there, then he has to rush to defend the title, and when Chris Wallace proposed to let them play another inconsequential first round, Cuban agreed.
Randolph, Sun Ce, and Nash were all signed or traded back by the Grizzlies, and they didn't seem to cost much, that is, the Grizzlies have put together two outside MVPs + a low-post monster triumvirate in two years.
Popovich had a headache when he looked at the Grizzlies' core interior combination of Double Bears + Double Emperors and the two MVPs on the outside, and he was very distressed that Neil, who had been trained well, was asked to leave by the Grizzlies, but he didn't give Neal a trade......
And the fans at the scene called a hi, and since Shuangdi took the lead, the cheers on the scene have not stopped.
After the players from both teams entered, Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace gave an impassioned speech for the new season, apologized for the shutdown and vowed to ensure that the shutdown was not the fault of their Grizzlies, and that the team had been working to quickly reach an agreement to resume operations and dump the blame on the big city teams...... Regardless of whether the actual situation is the reason for the big city team or the small city team, anyway, there are more teams in small cities, and you can't always throw the blame on your head.
After a series of pre-match activities, there were only about 10 minutes left before the start of the game.
Sun Ce returned to the bench and listened to the coach's emphasis on defense while watching the ability evaluation of the opposing players.
"Tim Duncan, 35 years old, 211 cm tall, 110 kg in weight, S-, S-, A+, A+, D-, D-, S-, S-, A+, S-, ......S-, D+, D+, D
"Manu Ginobili, 34 years old, 198 cm tall, 91 kg in weight, Ability A, Offensive A+, Defense B, Three-point A, Mid-range shot B-, Layup S-, Speed A+, Strength B+, Endurance B+......"
"Tony Parker, 29 years old, 188 cm tall, 84 kg in weight, A+ in ability evaluation, A+ in offense, B- in defense, A in passing, B- in three-point shooting, B+ in mid-range, S in layup, S in speed, C in strength, A-...... in endurance"
Troika's ability evaluation Sun Ce thinks it's incredible, Parker is okay, 29 years old, at the peak, all aspects of strength are normal at the peak, but Duncan was still A+ last season, and this season is back to the S- level, mainly because the defense and mid-range evaluation has improved a lot compared to last season, and the movement ability is better after weight loss, and the quasi-first-class speed of the B+ level is very fast among interior players, who can see that this is a 35-year-old veteran?
In addition to the sad B+ level physical strength, Duncan and Ginobili are both physical problems, and their playing style and playing style choices are becoming more and more demonic.
However, Duncan, who continues to lose weight, is still more tonnage than Tyson Chandler, who gave the Grizzlies a headache in last year's playoffs......
And the troika is too compatible, Ginobili didn't shoot, but after Ginobili entered the NBA, Duncan has begun to develop mid-range shots, and when the speed of the two declined, Parker entered his peak, and the speed was so fast that he was a beep, a little faster than Sun Ce.
In addition to the troika, there is also Guy!
"Rudy Gay, 25 years old, 206 cm tall, 106 kg in weight, A+ in ability, A+ in offense, A- in defense, A- in three-point range, A+ in mid-range shot, A+ in layup, A+ in speed, A+ in strength, A......+ in endurance"
From the perspective of ability evaluation, Sun Ce feels that Guy is almost at the top level, of course, he may not be able to break through, not that if he has physical talent, technical talent and hard work, he will always be able to get stronger, this is related to many factors.
Strength is a thing, after Sun Ce played in the NBA for two years, he knows very well that sometimes this thing is not something that you can improve by practicing hard, just like his own mid-range shooting, in the early stage, he spent training time on the left side of the shooting, no less than the right side of the shooting, but the right side of the shooting progress is faster than the left side, so he has the focus of training.
Guy's skills, each of which is developing towards the first-class level, such as the mid-shot and the long two points have even reached the quasi-top level, but each of them is a little bit away from the top, which reminds Sun Ce of the swingman who joined the CBA Qingdao team after the suspension, and the balance of that guy's skills is even stronger than Guy's.
After the two teams made the final preparations before the game, Sun Ce came to the technical table, wrapped the hand strap and arm guard, and moved the balance bracelet to his right hand, and saw the ball player on the opponent's bench.
Sun Ce's most ball-like person in his career...... Boris Dior!
"Boris Dior, 29 years old, height 203 cm, weight 126 kg, ability evaluation C......"
This weight, can you fight?
And the theoretical peak of 29-year-old ability evaluation is only C...... This is the most reassuring of the three opponents of Sun Ce's scouting report for the Spurs after the preseason game.
In the preseason, Dior played an average of 20 minutes per game, shooting 36 percent from the field with 3.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists......
In the advanced event of the balance bracelet, playing against Dior, you need to score, rebound, assist, steal, and block are all higher than Dior, Sun Ce originally thought it was a troublesome event, Dior played very demonic when he arrived at the Spurs, and it seems that he could be demonic immediately after arriving at the Spurs, this 126 kg weight, it is impossible to play well without losing 10 kg, but Popovich deliberately wants to exercise Dior, and the preseason deliberately gives playing time, after all, there is talent and other teams to grab and it has been proven that it is difficult to find a player.
It's just that Dior's weight can still play 20 minutes per game, and in Sun Ce's opinion, he is properly talented.
Ignore Dior for now, play hard, and the data will definitely be better than Dior.
At 6:58, the referee signaled for both teams to start.
Sun Ce and Nash, Paul George, Randolph and Gasol Jr. started the lineup.
On the Spurs' side, Parker, Danny Green, Gay, Duncan, and DeJuan Blair came into the starting lineup.
Sun Ce came to the center circle after coming on the court, ready to jump the ball with Duncan.
Guy looked at the opposite stand...... I haven't played for a year, and my old club has completely changed, and I think he's still a little upset.
He was reimbursed for an entire year last year, which was a pain in Guy's heart, and last season there was no problem with him and Paul George competing for playing time, and if he was there, it was possible to do a miracle by playing the Mavericks, of course, this is his personal opinion.
Guy was paying attention to Sun Ce, who came to the middle circle to jump the ball, but Sun Ce's attention was on the two inside lines of the opposite bench, Dio had already observed, another center, Split from Brazil, Sun Ce remembered that it was a key part of the Spurs' perfect system, but it seems that Split is still very weak now, Sun Ce judged that the opponent's interior line is still a big problem, and the other party has not been able to grab any of Brand or Al Jefferson this year, Brand went to the Lakers, Al Jefferson was signed by the Bobcats for two years and 30 million.
Al Jefferson is really a winner in life, with the Rockets with two years left with 25 million buyouts, and by the way, with the Bobcats with two years of 30 million.
The Rockets have complained to the league, although they forced Al Jefferson away, but the league is still ready to introduce a claim clause, that is, after the layoffs, other teams can bid for the claim within the specified time, and the highest bidder will get the right to use the player for the current season or the new season, and the new team will help the original team bear part of their bid salary, and the old club can spend less of the buyout money.
After Randolph pressed Parker to help the referee choose a harder ball, Sun Ce retracted his attention and got ready to jump the ball!
Duncan's bounce is higher than his Sun someone's B-level, but in terms of bounce speed, Sun Ce's A-level is higher than B+-level Duncan!
At six o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game and threw the ball into the air, and Sun Ce jumped with all his strength when the ball reached its highest point...... Without a jump to win, Duncan relied on his height, reach, and jump experience to move the ball to the back, and the Spurs attacked first.
Sun Ce retreated depressedly, even the 35-year-old Duncan couldn't win, and their Grizzlies team had no one to jump the ball after Battier played off the bench!
Sun Ce retreated to the top arc and waited for Parker to push in, the overall speed of the Spurs is fast, Duncan is now almost the fastest time since 2006, Blair is physical, Danny Green can run, Guy is physical, and Parker is the fastest on the court.
The Grizzlies, on their side, also moved their positions immediately after Sun Ce's loss, and quickly followed the defenders after the Spurs briskly advanced to the frontcourt.
Parker didn't break through immediately when he encountered Sun Ce's defense after advancing to the front court, and he may not be able to get rid of Sun Ce, which is a good point that Parker doesn't know what to say, Zhang Kai is as big as Guy, and he can still be so fast, it's just a bug! It's good that it didn't continue to grow, otherwise the other point guards wouldn't have been able to play.
Duncan took Randolph to the left side of the three-second zone at a 45-degree angle mid-range; Gasol Jr. stayed under the basket and didn't care about Blair, who had only scored 35 points from close range in the past two seasons, except for free throws; Nash followed Danny Green in the bottom corner, and the catch-and-shoot who was on his feet was working hard, though he didn't know what he was working on.
Guy pulled out from the inside to the right side of the top arc, Parker passed the ball and took Sun Ce to the inside.
Guy's draft template is Maddy, and Paul George's draft template is Guy...... Gay and Paul George played each other on the Grizzlies' home court, and the fans began to cheer.
Guy, who received the ball, faced the "successor" opposite who was almost the same height and arm span as himself, and after Parker took Sun Ce away, he began to play outside singles.
Outside singles have an advantage, it is not easy to be assisted, and the vision is good, but the disadvantage is the gambling feel.
However, Guy has been playing this way since he entered the NBA, and he doesn't like physical confrontation, so he likes to rely on his hand to shoot on the outside.
Paul George defends really well, compared to Guy during the Grizzlies, Paul George is not as afraid of physical confrontation on the offensive end as he is on the offensive end, but especially likes to use his superior size to fight opponents.
But Guy played well this time, taking advantage of his weight advantage to take two steps to the top corner of the free throw line and shoot a mid-range pullup jump shot before Sun Ce could stretch out to help the defense......
Entered!
The mid-ranger, who has shot 45 percent from the free-throw line so far in his career, scored the first goal of the game.
Paul George already has A-level defensive ability, but he was still beaten in the opening game.
Sun Ce patted Guy on the back, retreated to the baseline to receive Gasol Jr.'s serve, advanced to the front court and passed the ball to Nash, pulling away to the right mid-distance.
Randolph hit the Grizzlies' first shot of the new season.
It was Blair who defended Randolph, Duncan didn't go to fight with Randolph, Randolph's body type, this year is really beautiful, so good that Duncan was surprised, almost the best start of every season in Randolph's career he had ever seen.
Therefore, the Spurs' tactical arrangement is that Blair is the main defense of Randolph, and Duncan is responsible for the auxiliary defense.
Randolph started the game excitedly, carrying Blair's baseline and turning around and taking a step back to shoot a moon-style throw.
The ball showed Randolph's excellent sense of singles, Duncan had actually put it in, and it was very fast, even faster than last season's contraction, but Randolph's beautiful step after turning from the baseline was a beautiful one, avoiding Duncan, and the throw with his back to the basket showed his very good shooting touch.
Sure enough, as Sun Ce expected, the Spurs still needed someone who could defend under the basket!
Blair's tonnage of 203 centimeters and 118 kilograms, and that kind of athleticism, is very good, but he is in his third year, and his ability evaluation is still C+, which is his limit, and there is no way to be better.
The offensive end and grabbing defensive rebounds were fine, but the defensive end was a mess, and it didn't even have the ability to interfere with Randolph's chance to help Duncan.
Last season, the Spurs' defense collapsed, and in addition to the increased pace of the offense, the key was not to defend well except for Duncan.
After each of the best singles players on both teams played at the beginning of the game, the Spurs began to play tactics.
The Spurs attacked, Parker didn't pass the ball to Guy who had just scored a goal, Guy didn't ask for the ball, but pulled it out and took Paul George to cut inside, Blair came to the right side of the top arc to block Guy, and at the same time, Parker and Duncan played a block!
After Sun Ce was blocked by Duncan, Randolph immediately switched guards to chase Parker, and Gasol Jr. also moved to the left side of the three-second zone to block Parker.
Sun Ce was blocked and immediately gave up chasing Parker to chase Guy who cut in without the ball, Parker passed the ball back to Duncan in the middle of the move, and Paul George quickly made up for it, but at this time Duncan hoisted the ball to the middle...... Blair cut in from the middle after blocking Paul George and received the ball in the air Gorilla style hanging frame dunk!
Really fierce!
With a weight of 203 cm and 118 kilograms, this size rushes up, and little Gasol has no chance to stand up at the first time, so he can only watch Blair dunk the ball in, otherwise Gasol, who is only 120 kg now, will only be knocked away.
When I was almost 140 kilograms, who was afraid of this kind of small man insider, little Gasol missed his own meat.
Sun Ce's brain hurt a little, and he received the ball and advanced slowly, not in a hurry.
He feels the same way he did last season! There's no way to stop the other side from attacking! Last season, it was okay when they met in the last two meetings, but this time the opponent has an offensive strength on the outside, and it is Guy who is much better than Leonard's offense in 13 and 14!
Especially the opponent's blocking, there are too many changes, it seems that it is just a double blockade with the ball + no ball, if Gasol Jr. really blocks the right side of the three-second zone to block Guy's cutting route, Sun Ce goes to make up for Blair, then Guy still has a chance to pull the bottom line or block Danny Green.
Sun Ce can easily analyze the opponent's offensive line, but the analysis is very easy to analyze, he believes that every head coach can analyze it, but he can't find a good solution.
Then you can only have a focused defense, and then rely on the offense!
Sun Ce still gave the ball to Nash when he arrived in the front court, and went to the right mid-distance to look for an opportunity to cut in.
After Nash passed the ball to Randolph, he drove to the left 45-degree angle with Parker, Paul George took Danny Green to the bottom left corner, Randolph was about to continue to ravage Blair with a single, Duncan directly shrank back and pinched!
Sun Ce thought of having a focused defense, and Duncan had the same idea!
Randolph quickly passed the ball back to Gasol Jr. who was one step outside the free throw line, and Gasol Jr. saw that he had the opportunity to shoot and was about to shoot, when Gasol Jr. saw a teammate who ran to the basket, his head went up, and the ball was stuffed in, and it passed from the gap between Gay's arms to Sun Ce!
Sun Ce was startled when he received the ball coldly, he just wanted to cut in to help Gasol Jr. contain Guy and not give Gaye a chance to help defend, Gasol Jr. has recovered well in the middle of the shot, who knew that the ball suddenly came in, fortunately, Gasol Jr. didn't expect Gasol Jr. to pass like this, Sun Ce has long been used to receiving the ball from Conley or Jason Williams, so he instinctively reacted to catch the ball.
This location...... Duncan also came over for the first time! And while raising his arm to block Sun Ce's passing route, he was also ready to jump and block at any time, and Guy was the same!
Sun Ce had no choice, he raised the ball and was ready to force a layup, Duncan was fine, Guy jumped! Guy's bounce speed and bounce height, Sun Ce was so frightened that he quickly put the ball back...... That's when the system prompt came!
Sun Ce's eyes lit up, and he slammed into Duncan in the direction of the top arc of the reasonable collision area......
Knock Duncan back half a step directly!
Then the legs seemed to be springed, the legs bent slightly, bounced up quickly, and when Guy just landed, Sun Ce had jumped to the highest and smashed the ball into the basket with one hand!
Sun Ce caught the ball under the basket and shook Guy with a pick-and-two and then crashed into Duncan's one-handed split dunk!
Overlord buckle!
