Chapter 221: Praying to Lose?
The Kings have a total of 14 players on their roster, and after removing five starters from the injury list, there are nine players available.
Three of them were on non-guaranteed contracts, which were basically made up......
It means that there are only six players on the Kings' side who can play.
In this case, if the Grizzlies can't win, then the team will be too embarrassed.
After the opening, the core players of the Grizzlies can also be said to be the big boss, and the sophomore Raheem performed well, playing more brilliantly on both offensive and defensive ends.
Of course, this kind of brilliance only touched the soft persimmon, and if he was against Barkley, it would definitely not be so easy.
With Raheem's play, the Grizzlies played some good advantages at the end of the first quarter and led by 6 points.
From this, you can also see how scummy the Grizzlies team is, all five starters on the King's side did not play, and they only won by six points in a single quarter, and this is when Raheem played well!
What made Davidson speechless was that even if the six-point difference, their Grizzlies could not keep it, and the second quarter of the game was directly chased back by the Kings, and even the Kings led by one point at the end of the second quarter!
When it comes to why he recovered so many points in the second quarter, Christie said he has something to say.
None of the five starters played, and the Hot Stick is the highest-paid player on the court right now, but he's not the strongest player on the Kings' side, Christie is.
Seeing being beaten like this by a weak chicken like the Grizzlies, Christie broke out directly in the second quarter of the game, throwing in 4 three-pointers in a single quarter, taking two free throws, and scoring 14 points in a single quarter.
Christie's explosive performance directly caused the fans at the scene to scream, and the fans cheered one after another.
Davidson felt very sad, and he continued to play at this pace, afraid that it was not the rhythm of winning.
Obviously, I tried so hard to lose, but after half time, the team was still ahead, who to reason with......
Luckily, Christie's three-point burst didn't carry over into the second half, or it was a real headache for Davidson.
However, even if the offensive end could not be opened, Christie still used his strong strength on the defensive end to lead the king to bite the score.
By the time there were two minutes left in the game, the two sides were tied......
Davidson rolled his eyes and said who believed that he had worked so hard to lose, who would have thought that the Grizzlies would not be like this.
Grizzlies head coach Brian Winters looked a little embarrassed.
He is also a player-turned-head coach who has played for the Bucks in his career, and the No. 32 jersey was retired by the Bucks.
Tonight he encountered the most embarrassing scene of his basketball career, the opposing Kings team was clearly sending warmth, but even so, in the last two minutes, they couldn't get even a point difference.
Losing to a team like the Kings that can compete with the Bulls is certainly not a shame.
But it would be a bit embarrassing to lose to a king who didn't even make a start......
Quite a shame to be exact.
Winters has a hunch that his tenure as a head coach has just started for more than a year and is expected to end soon.
He, like Davidson, came to the head coach position in '95.
The Grizzlies were unsuccessful in recruiting Davidson, and then chose Winters, a Bucks legend with no head coaching experience......
Last season, Winters led the Grizzlies to a fifteen-win record.
With just two wins so far this season, he could be one step away from being fired.
This is a typical fandom, Winters and Davidson became head coaches at the same time, but now they lead a team that is first in the West and the other is the bottom of the West.
One is the Alliance's brightest Nova Bishop, and the other is about to be fired.
I'm afraid the Grizzlies are also extremely regretful now, thinking that if they had released more chips in the first place, they could attract Davidson to the Grizzlies.
The Grizzlies are indeed weak, but the Kings are not really strong.
Most of the core players of the Kings are Davidson, and if they had joined the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies would have been a league-level team now.
It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, and the only thing the Grizzly Bear management can do now is to sigh and regret not being at the beginning.
Winter prayed in his heart that in the last two minutes, the Grizzlies players must be strong.
If you win this game, then everything is easy to say, but if you lose, the problem will be great.
Maybe Grizzlies management fired Winters overnight......
Davidson, for his part, was also praying, praying that the team would lose, and if this one won again, it would be in trouble.
Rotate the rest of the players, you can't always rest in four or four, not to mention that Petri can't understand it, and the players probably can't understand it either.
What Davidson might do next is to take a two-time break.
But if only two people are rested, the king's strength may continue to maintain the winning streak.
You must know that the Kings' opponents in the early stage are relatively strong, and there are no too strong opponents in the current schedule until the Bulls.
Even if the two of them have been resting all the time, maybe the king will still maintain a winning streak.
In this way, if there is a record of dozens of consecutive wins, it will be difficult for Davidson to easily get the nine thousand evolution coins in the future.
……
The managers of both sides are secretly praying, and if the fans know the content of the prayer, they will probably vomit blood.
And the head coach is looking forward to losing his game?!
……
With the last 30 seconds left in the game, the score between the two sides was still tied, and the situation was tied at 83:83.
Judging from this score, the offensive efficiency of both sides tonight is really bad.
It is no exaggeration to say that if Davidson is all the main force tonight, it is completely possible to beat the Grizzlies by 50 points.
……
Christie made a three-point shot from the outside, but unfortunately missed.
The rebound was snatched by Rahim, the hot rod is old and short, how is Raheem's opponent in terms of scrambling for rebounds.
It was the Grizzlies' turn to attack, and instead of rushing to shoot this round, they were wasting time.
With six seconds left on the clock, Raheem made a shot.
Davidson breathed a long sigh of relief, and Raheem stumbled into the basket on this mid-range shot to score two points for the Grizzlies.
In the last six seconds, Davidson didn't bother to call a timeout, Christie quickly pushed to the frontcourt, took a step forward from the halfcourt line, and shot a three-point shot.
This shot directly shocked Winters into a cold sweat, because from his point of view, the ball might be able to hit......
“DUANG!” The sound of hitting iron was heard, and then Raheem protected the rebound, which made Winters completely relieved.
