525. It's time to look at character!

The game is hard to play!

And there is also bad news during the interval.

The initial diagnosis was that Guy had a stress tear in the rotator cuff, and Guy had been sent to a partner hospital for an MRI and a full body examination.

If it's really a rotator cuff tear...... This season is basically reimbursed!

When Sun Ce heard about the rotator cuff tear, he suddenly thought of it, the grizzly bear of the Black Eight Spurs didn't seem to have Guy, and he seemed to be reimbursed because of this injury!

Because of the lack of Guy and no outside singles, in the second round, the tie-break lost to the Thunder, and the key to losing the tie-break is that the Thunder Durant can stand up and shoot key shots, while their Grizzlies don't have that kind of outside scoring point!

I looked at Tony Allen, who was injured by the dunk, and then thought of Guy who was injured by the dunk......

It's poisonous!

At this time, Sun Ce saw the rookie standing next to Hollins listening to the arrangement, his face was full of nervousness but full of expectation, he had to count on a rookie for the time being?

"Paul George, Rating C+, Offensive C-, Defensive B......"

Paul George is talented, hardworking, and will be an MVP contender in the future, and Sun Ce knows that.

But...... With such a player, even if you give him 30 shots a game, he can't improve quickly.

In terms of talent, Paul George is not the kind of Durant who can shoot the ball.

Gay and Durant, who can average 20 points per game in their 20s; Paul George played for two or three years, and he could also average 20 points per game by relying on efforts beyond ordinary people.

But the former can average 20 points per game by playing casually, and Paul George needs to work hard to improve to 20 points per game.

Besides, the Grizzlies can't focus on developing Paul George, and they have to win.

Paul George is not a top talent like Gay who averaged 20 points per game from the beginning of his sophomore year, nor is it a super talent like Evans, Durant, James, and Wade who can see the potential of superstars in their rookie seasons.

It's time for the Grizzlies to produce results again.

That is, if the worst-case scenario happens and Guy is reimbursed for the season, then the Grizzlies will have one less ball-handling point on the outside, and it is true that Paul George has better talent on the defensive end than Guy, and Paul George is willing to fight on the defensive end and is better than Guy, but no matter what, there will definitely be one less ball-handling offensive player on the outside.

Sun Ce can predict if the worst happens to Guy...... He's under a lot of pressure here!

Even if Guy's injury is similar to a non-articular fracture, it won't have any impact after he comes back, but at least this season, he has a lot of pressure on his grandson!

What needs to be done by Guy, Paul George and Battier can hold it up on the defensive end, but what needs Guy to do on the offensive end, that part of the pressure ...... It's definitely going to be on his grandson!

"Noah, come here...... In the second quarter, you step up your individual offense, we try to suppress their speed, and when you counterattack, you bring up the speed and play a little bit more of a tempo transition...... Mark, the inside line is handed over to you, we use one big and four small, try our best to block the three-point ......"

Sun Ce knows! It must be so!

Coach Hollins asked the players to rest after arranging the big tactical direction, and when the second quarter of the game began, Sun Ce secretly came to Coach Hollins and pulled his clothes.

Coach Hollins was anxious now, but couldn't show it, was pulled a little, turned his head to see that it was Sun Ce, and asked, "What's wrong Noah?" ”

"I'm just a weak sophomore little point guard......"

Seeing Sun Ce, it seemed that he wanted to throw the pot! How could Coach Hollins let Sun Ce get the pot out?

Coach Hollins patted Sun Ce on the shoulder and said, "Noah, you are the team's scoring champion, rebounding champion, assist king, and blocking king...... A little harder in steals, more than Mike, Rudy, Toney, you are five stats ahead, of course, we will not put pressure on you, but you are really good, come on, I am optimistic about you! ”

“……”

Sun Ce didn't know how to answer this, which was reasonable and well-founded, similar to ESPN...... No wonder I went to ESPN as a commentator after losing my job!

Pressure is also motivation!

Sun Ce can only choose to take on this part of the pressure, but without Guy, the teammates who help him contain the most defenders on the outside are gone, and it will become more difficult for him to score.

Forty-eight percent shooting in the first nine games was very helpful from teammates!

Right now......

Sun Ce really wants to become stronger!

……

As the break drew to a close, the two teams made personnel adjustments.

On the Grizzlies' side, the lineup of Sun Ce, Conley, Morrow, Paul George, and Gasol Jr. was replaced.

Battier and Tony Allen take a break, and Randolph also slows down, and needs him to play singles for a while.

The Knicks fielded a combination of Tony Douglas, Roger Mason, Fields, Sheldon Williams, Stoudemire.

Sun Ce looked at Tony Douglas, a third-year second-year player with the 30th pick in the first round of his class, and his C+-level ability evaluation basically made it the pinnacle of entering the NBA, and it was quite easy to deal with.

Thanks to today's opponent being the Knicks, there are plenty of ways to strengthen your individual offense.

At the beginning of the second quarter, the Grizzlies attacked first.

Sun Ce directly took advantage of his speed and size, burst to the right side of the three-second zone, and threw a shot in the Novitzki-style lateral jump step......

Compared to Paul's defense, Tony Douglas's defense was like nothing, and Sun Ce hit a 45-degree angle shot from a regular training angle.

31-32, the Grizzlies narrowed the gap to 1 point!

Offense and defense transition, Knicks offense.

Sun Ce posted up to defend as soon as Tony Douglas advanced to the front court.

This phase of Paul's rest is an opportunity for the Grizzlies to try and build a lead!

Sun Ce planned to gamble on his character in the second half, and was ready to fight first in the first half, physical strength was not a problem at all, and he changed his jersey in the second half!

The rest of the Grizzlies also know that the situation is dangerous, and any team with the best outside player can't play, the problem will be very serious.

Among the Grizzlies players, apart from Sun Ce, the most stressed are Gasol Jr. and Paul George.

Gasol Jr. is the pressure brought by responsibility, when the second brother can't play, he, as the third, must take responsibility.

But Conley, the fourth child, was still so calm, undisturbed, and defended steadily.

And the most stressed, is rookie Paul George!

This is his chance! A chance to fall from the sky!

The Grizzlies' defense suddenly became like a mad dog, which made the Knicks players uncomfortable.

Paul George and Conley are both frantic in pressing the players defending their opponents, and Morrow has no defensive pressure, he just works hard, and no one blames him if he can't defend it.

Tony Douglas was very tightly attached to Sun Ce, and in the face of Sun Ce, who was taller than him, faster than him, and already stronger than him, Tony Douglas did not fight indiscriminately...... I can't beat it!

The NBA is so cruel, people are likely to be better than you in all aspects.

However, the Knicks have a lot of space and protect the ball, and Tony Allen waits for Stoudemire to come to the high post, passes the ball to Stoudemire, and then pulls the space away.

Stoudemire starts attacking from inside the three-point line and makes a strong break inside!

Gasol Jr. stepped back and stoudemire made a mid-range pullup jump shot from inside the free throw line...... Sun Ce immediately retracted after Stoudemire did not transmit the sight of the line, pounced on it to interfere, in fact, he couldn't take it, there was a gap in jump height and height, but Stoudemire was afraid of the threat of Sun Ce's block king, and shot to the left side, and missed the jump shot!

Paul George desperately stuck Sheldon Williams who cut in, Gasol Jr. also stopped Stoudemire who wanted to throw and grab himself, and Sun Ce received the defensive rebound and counterattacked!

The Knicks' five-man lineup retreated quickly, but it was messy, Sun Ce suppressed the restlessness in his heart, rushed to the inside, kept watching his teammates, and passed back to Morrow at the top of the arc after attracting the defense.

When Morrow received the ball, Tony Douglas and Stoudemire blocked it, and Morrow distributed the ball to Paul George, who followed up on the wing, and Paul George no longer hesitated to receive the ball, and made a decisive three-point shot......

Pressure can destroy a person, but for a player with a heart, it can be a catalyst for him to improve himself, making him more focused and bold!

This time Paul George's chase three-pointer went in!

In the second quarter, relying on Sun Ce's stride shot, grabbing the rebound and counterattacking, the Grizzlies played a wave of 5-0 and overtook the Knicks by two points at 34-32!

The Knicks expected that Paul would be overtaken by the score, and they didn't know what to do during the break, so they didn't panic and immediately served to launch a counterattack.

Just as Sun Ce can use the fast pace to reduce the physical confrontation with Paul, D'Antoni also takes advantage of this and counterattacks with speed!

The Grizzlies tried to hold down the pace, but it was still difficult.

However, it was very tight, Gasol Jr. did not participate in the fast break, and stayed directly under the basket and waited for the opponent to counterattack, which is the key to suppressing the opponent's counterattack, and there are guardians under the basket!

Although Stoudemire eventually turned and threw in the low post, the Grizzlies' defensive strategy was not without effect, containing the Knicks' rotation composed of a group of fringe people, even if Stoudemire scored, it could give Stoudemire enough consumption.

It's not easy to consume Paul, Paul's brain is too good, but Stoudemire is used to being a stormtrooper, although the ball quotient is good, but he is still a little stunned and knows what to do, and he is used to having a super point guard around him, so he doesn't have to worry about other things.

After more than six minutes in the second quarter, the two teams went on a 19-13 half-quarter score, and when the official timeout went into the official timeout, the Grizzlies outscored the Knicks by three points at 48-45.

Stoudemire is really awesome, and he chiseled out a brutal performance of 9 points in the half quarter, of course, it is also related to the fact that D'Antoni's scrap wood can also become an empty pitcher, and the space is very good.

The Grizzlies' strategy barely succeeded, and the score overtook and gave Stoudemire attrition.

But now there is a key, the physical strength of Sun Ce, who has been playing for nearly 19 minutes in a row!

Originally, Sun Ce planned to start gambling on character in the second half, but now there is no way......

"Uncle Learning Machine, use the Grizzlies' starting star experience card! Give me a chocolate or a Miller! ”
