Sun Ce's low-level plane frame redirection technique was learned from Ellis, which everyone knows, but I didn't expect Sun Ce to find a way to restrain "himself"!

Sun Ce's defense of Ellis this time, even Ibaka sighed to himself, it was really amazing.

Ellis didn't expect that the former junior brother he taught could defend himself so well.

The feeling of the back wave crashing the front wave on the beach made Ellis feel like he was going to explode.

This feeling is like Kobe Bryant facing Sun Ce, who learned his high-level back-to-back play, and Sun Ce using high-level back-to-back to kill.

After Ellis was traded, he matured a lot and was not so easily stimulated, even if he played against the Celtics, he could withstand the mouth of Garnett, who switched defenses.

But it's hard to bear!

Ellis's string snapped and he started to go into singles mode!

This is not a particularly unacceptable thing for the Thunder team, Ellis, as the sixth man, the first task of coming up is to score, and he has averaged 19.2 points per game so far, the second highest for the Thunder, higher than Westbrook, who averaged 17.5 points, 8.5 rebounds and 9.8 assists per game.

For the Thunder, the trouble now is that Sun Ce is very efficient in supplementing Ellis! And the Grizzlies' Klay Thompson, Yi Jianlian, and Paul George are very tacit and cooperate with Sun Ce defensively.

For the Thunder team, the trouble doesn't stop there, what is more troublesome is that when they defend, in the face of Sun Ce, who went to block Nash, the defense is very bad, Nash's shooting can't be unguarded, this is a member of the 180 club.

On the Grizzlies' side, they planned to compete with the Thunder through offense first, and find a way to consume Durant by the way, but anyway, it was only the first quarter, playing slowly and slowly figuring out a way.

But I didn't expect that after the run-and-bomb lineup came up, it actually relied on Sun Ce in the last two minutes of the first quarter for more than two minutes, a block and a shooting interference, and played a wave of 9 to 2, the Thunder team only scored one goal in 3 attacks, and the Grizzlies scored all 4 attacks, and directly caught up with the score after the first quarter!

Nash's mid-range shot, Yi Jianlian's cut into the layup to attract the pinch, Sun Ce's first basket, and Klay Thompson counterattacked to chase three points, and the Grizzlies and the Thunder tied 27-27 in the first quarter!

Durant is going to blow up! What kind of teammates are these! How did the coaching staff change people!

Whenever things don't go well, Durant's unusual thinking unfolds again.

He felt that it was all to blame for the head coach who had replaced Alton, and that positional warfare and defense were useless; However, ignoring that without Alton, Nick Collison and Perkins were unable to cooperate with Ibaka to suppress the Grizzlies into the counterattack during this period, forgetting that the original intention of the team to bring in Alton was to deal with the Grizzlies' run-and-gun lineup.

In the second quarter, the Grizzlies continued to play and run, and the Thunder changed to the no-center lineup of Westbrook, Seifrosa, Lamb, Durant, and Ibaka, and the no-center lineup on the Grizzlies' side.

The Grizzlies can't let Westbrook play alone, Nash and Yi Jianlian's defense is poor, mainly Nash, who can't keep up with the off-ball blocking and dismantling defense.

But now the Grizzlies have also temporarily abandoned the defensive strategy that evokes the soul of Westbrook Mamba, and now there is no need, their disadvantage was wiped out by Sun Ce's two successful defenses at the end of the first quarter!

Sun Ce's block on Ellis not only helped the Grizzlies quickly tie the 7-point difference, but also boosted the morale of the Grizzlies!

No one could have imagined that when the Grizzlies were struggling to defend, they did not have an advantage, but when they wanted to play offense, Sun Ce relied on defense to help the Grizzlies regain their momentum.

This situation, not to mention that the Thunder didn't expect it, and the Grizzlies themselves couldn't think of it.

But now that the score is scorching, the Grizzlies are not afraid, and it is not easy to get through when they are 7 points behind, but now, the consumption is right!

Paul George, Sun Ce, and Klay Thompson took turns fighting with Durant in the first half of the second quarter.

However, it did not prevent it, Durant seemed to be a little angry in the second quarter about being beaten 9-2, and he asked for the ball many times, and scored 11 points in the first half of 5 shots and 4 of them.

Fortunately, the Grizzlies' side has strong offensive firepower, counterattacks and positional battles, and this lineup has relied on Sun Ce's progress that cannot be intuitively seen at the technical level and data, and it played very well.

When the official timeout in the second quarter was reached, and when Nash went down to rest, the Grizzlies and the Thunder were tied at 45-47, and when the Thunder relied on Durant's super individual performance to score a little more than 20 points in the first half of the quarter, the Grizzlies held on!

In the second half of the second quarter, the Grizzlies sent a lineup of Sun Ce, Tony Allen, Jimmy Butler, Randolph, and Gasol Jr. to defend.

The Thunder also sent back Westbrook, Seifrosa, Durant, Ibaka, and Perkins with a lineup.

The two teams returned to the way they played at the beginning of the game, playing slowly, slowly depleting, playing success rate and defensive attrition.

At halftime, the Grizzlies trailed by three points at 56-59 and went into halftime.

On the Thunder's side, although he led by 3 points at halftime, Durant was not happy at all, and when he entered halftime, he suddenly woke up, and he played too hard in this quarter!

18 points in a single quarter, helping the team to 32 points, better than the Grizzlies' 29 points in a single quarter, but he clearly felt his physical decline.

On the other hand, don't look at Sun Ce, who is almost drowning in sweat, but Sun Ce's recovery ability is ridiculously strong!

Not many people have questioned Sun Ce's ability to recover, and Sun Ce is the Grizzlies' player who has received the most urine and blood tests, and the two combined, he was tested nine times last season, which is comparable to the number of tests in many superstars in their entire careers.

But Sun Ce has not been tested once this season, and people don't think there is anything wrong with Sun Ce's recovery ability.

There are too many NBA geniuses, there are Hamilton who can't run back then, there are physical monsters like Kobe and Iverson, and there are James and Josh Smith who have weight + height + speed combined like a hanging.

Sun Ce's strong recovery ability seems to be less incredible than these people.

……

Just like Durant's anxiety, when he came back from halftime, he saw Sun Ce and Randolph walking together, and he was not good.

Sun Ce seems to be more energetic than Randolph, who only played 13 minutes in the first half!

On his side, most of his physical strength has been consumed, and it was only after halftime that he recovered half of his physical strength.

He played 24 minutes in the first half, shooting 12-of-17 and scoring 27 points in the half, but the physical exertion was huge.

Before the start of the second half, Durant was once again dissatisfied with his own team's head coach......
