792.Tonight, Yi Di Mighty (Part 2)
The main thing is the improvement in awareness, if Yi Jianlian wants to play so well like he did today, it is estimated that Conley and Paul George shoot so accurately every night, Derandolph has always been the offensive containment point, and Sun Ce or Conley has been passing the ball for him......
Yao Ming judged that Yi Jianlian needed to play such a good performance, and he needed more conditions, and the great progress was only compared to the previous inefficiency.
However, the current Yi Jianlian, when these favorable conditions appear, can be used, and they are used well, unlike before, when they did not even have the awareness and ability to take advantage of these occasional favorable conditions.
Being able to seize the opportunity to break out once in a while is a huge improvement!
Yao Ming felt so painful, and finally got two points, Yi Jianlian actually came back!
The difference is still 12 points.
After Yi Jianlian's close-range jumper was made, Jason Terry came over from the Mavericks and hit another three-point shot, he wanted to avoid Paul George's defensive shot, but the shot was too hasty!
However, when the Grizzlies were attacking, Randolph received the ball and made a layup, which was interfered with by Marion, and Yao Ming protected the rebound.
Kidd didn't give the ball to Jason Terry after advancing to the front court this time, but motioned for Jason Terry to pull away, motioned for DeSean Stevenson to run and cut in, Yao Ming to the middle distance, he and Marion began to block and dismantle, and after a few rounds, Kidd also thought of some solutions.
Relying on Marion's cut-in style of playing with Kidd in the Net-like Nets-like period after Marion was blocked and dismantled, and DeSean Stevenson's cut-in, he successfully attracted Yi Jianlian and Sun Ce to the basket, Marion received the ball and then distributed it to Yao Ming, Yao Ming only had Randolph in front of him!
In the face of Randolph's supplementary defense, Yao Ming made a mid-range jumper...... Again!
Basically, it's Yao Ming alone!
In the next few minutes, Yao Ming played very well, and his shooting maintained the accuracy of the first half, and at the 7th minute and 22nd of the fourth quarter, Yao Ming received the ball on the right side of the three-second zone and turned around to shake off the substitute Jordan Jr. and hit a layup, at this time Yao Ming had already made the fifth shot in the fourth quarter, plus 2 free throws in 2, Yao Ming scored 12 points in less than 7 and a half minutes.
However, during this period, no one else scored except for Marion who scored two points on another catch-and-shoot throw!
Yao Ming made 5 of 8 shots, and the others shot 1 of 7 in total!
On the other hand, Yi Jianlian's performance continued to be outstanding, and after Jordan Jr. replaced Randolph on the court, Yi Jianlian's defense didn't have to be so sad to defend Yao Ming, and he focused on the offensive end and played even better! and Yao Ming soared, and also scored 12 points in the first half of the quarter, shooting 6 of 9!
Coupled with Sun Ce's 4 points, Paul George hit a three-point shot in the face of Jason Terry's single, and the Grizzlies played a wave of 19-14, and Yao Ming played so well on the Mavericks' side that not only did not narrow the difference, but the difference was also expanded to 15 points!
The Mavericks defended very well, and the Grizzlies were able to score 19 points in less than 7 and a half minutes, which is not the Grizzlies, and the key figure is Yi Jianlian, who broke out today!
In the fourth quarter, Sun Ce was in control, and Yi Jianlian got 4 assists! Coupled with Randolph's mid-range shot after an offensive rebound to Yi Jianlian, and Yi Jianlian's second offensive success after an offensive rebound when Sun Cechang missed a two-point shot, Yi Jianlian has scored 28 points so far, and Yao Ming, who scored 35 points in a single game, exploded each other!
The Mavericks didn't think of a good way to solve the problem on the offensive end on the offensive end, they actually did a good job on the defensive end, and they worked hard to prevent Sun Ce from shooting 1 of 4, limiting Randolph to only 40% of the shots in the whole game, and limiting Paul George, who made 5 three-pointers in the first three quarters, in the fourth quarter, but Yi Jianlian broke out!
If Yi Jianlian had his usual performance of a few points per game, the Grizzlies might not have been able to lead so much today, and even if his shot was given to others, it would be impossible to play like him.
Yi Jianlian became the key to the Grizzlies' 15-point lead after the official timeout in the fourth quarter!
The Mavericks couldn't think of it, Yao Ming couldn't think of it, and the Grizzlies couldn't think of it, but it was Yi Jianlian who broke out and collapsed the Mavericks!
With 4 minutes and 38 seconds left and 15 points behind, the Mavericks didn't give up, replacing Marion and DeSean Stevenson with a lineup of Kidd, Jason Terry, Peja, Chandler, and Yao Ming, trying to make a final wave with the lineup of three outside shooters and the twin towers.
On the Grizzlies' side, Randolph played again, Yi Jianlian continued to stay on the court, and the lineup of Battier, Paul George, and Sun Ce played.
The other party sent Yao Ming and Chandler on the court together, this height is really terrible, and although Chandler is a 216 cm tall center, he is a sports interior line who weighs two kilograms lighter than Nowitzki, when he partners with Nowitzki, the defensive end is usually Chandler expands out to defend, and Nowitzki guards the basket and carries the opposite center.
Yao Ming rarely plays with Chandler, not on the defensive end, this lineup is almost the ultimate in the league's interior defense, but the offensive end is too congested, Yao Ming has the ability to shoot on the periphery, but it certainly can't be compared with Nowitzki, which will greatly compress the Mavericks' interior offensive power.
But at this time, Mavericks head coach Carlisle can't care so much, they only need three points, as long as they shoot from the outside.
In the final period of the fourth quarter, the Mavericks made a desperate effort to let Kidd, Jason Terry, and Peja shoot a lot, and really gave them two three-pointers in less than 5 minutes in the end, plus Yao Ming scored 6 points in a row, and Chandler made a layup, the Mavericks scored 14 points in the final moments.
But...... By the time of the official timeout in the fourth quarter, the Mavericks were already trailing by 15 points!
On the Grizzlies' side, at the last moment, whether it was Sun Ce, Battier, Paul George, or Randolph, they all consciously fed Yi Jianlian, Yi Jianlian had some problems with his physical strength in the end, and he shot very badly, shooting 1 of 4, and the Grizzlies only scored 8 points in the last few minutes, and were chased by the Mavericks for 6 points.
But a 15-point lead was enough for them to splurge!
In the end, the margin was fixed at 9 points, and the Grizzlies defeated the Mavericks 106-97 to win their 60th win of the season!
Sun Ce got 5 assists on Yi Jianlian, 18 points, 7 boards, 11 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal in the whole game, Conley also got 4 assists on Yi Jianlian in the whole game, plus Randolph passed to Yi Jianlian twice, Yi Jianlian alone contributed 11 assists to his teammates!
Yi Jianlian played 35 minutes, shooting 14 of 24, 2 of 4 free throws, and slashed 30 points and 8 boards.
Playing time, number of shots, and scoring, Yi Jianlian all refreshed the Grizzlies' career highs.
Although Yao Ming scored 41 points on 16-of-23 shots and 9-of-11 free throws, the team lost to Yi Jianlian's Grizzlies tonight!
