Chapter 194: Yesterday's Agent Zero, Today's Grizzly Bear

Game 3 of the series between the Kings and the Grizzlies begins, and it's no surprise that the Kings' roster hasn't changed from the previous two games, but the Grizzlies also showed their trust in the player by starting the same game for the third game in a row.

The Grizzlies have indeed picked up some form back at home, with star wing Rudy. Guy's consecutive goals opened the situation for the Grizzlies, and at the same time Randolph also showed signs of recovery, although still affected by injuries, but Randolph obviously played a lighter script in this game, it seems that two consecutive defeats also made Randolph feel the pressure from the heart, Randolph as a veteran who has worked hard for many years, naturally has the responsibility to stand up and lead the team.

In the cheers of the home fans, the Grizzlies played well on the offensive end, and the defense they were good at was also returned, and the Grizzlies' defense, which was blown up by the Kings in the last game, returned to a level that all teams in the league feared.

Tony. Aaron & Mike. Conley's individual single defense can be regarded as the league's first-class, the two of them at home in this game are focused on the extreme, the Grizzlies have implemented the defensive ideas they have always adhered to throughout the season, actively forcing defense on the outside, isolating the ball carrier, focusing on interior defense, forcing the ball to the outside, relying on the team's excellent card position to ensure defensive rebounding, in this kind of defense, unless the opponent feels hot all over the court, you will find it difficult to get rid of them at all, as long as once the hand is cold, it may be consumed by the Grizzlies at any time.

This is the Grizzlies' way to win, it can be said that the defense is the offense, as long as the offense is not too bad, it is possible to drag any team to death with defense!

The Kings did fall into passivity at the FedEx Arena, Tyrek faced a grappling fight in Allen at the same time Conley was clamped at the same time, completely unable to play his own advantages, even when he arrived in the restricted area, Gasol Jr.'s barrier role also made Terrick very uncomfortable, not that Tyreco's ability was a problem, but that the Grizzlies' enthusiasm in this game was really high, plus home court advantage, the scale of the blowing penalty in this game was very large, and the intensity of the defense was extremely fierce, after the first quarter of the game, the Kings trailed the Grizzlies by 4 points at 23-27.

In the second quarter of the game, the Kings still didn't have much to do with the Grizzlies, but the Grizzlies didn't play any amazing attack waves, the score gap could not be completely opened, and at the end of the half, the Grizzlies led the Kings by 7 points at home 53-46.

In the away locker room, Coach Westphaal looked at his disciples and applauded vigorously: "Hey, hey, hey! Don't be discouraged, we're the team leading 2-0 on aggregate! There is still no second half, although the defensive intensity of this game is very strong, everyone played very hard, but this is the playoffs, don't expect easy goals! We were only seven points behind, so play a little harder in the second half, don't be afraid of physical contact, a seven-point deficit is not a difficult thing for you! Let's think about it, we will have the match point in this game, who can turn the tables in front of us in a 3-0 situation? Let's play well in the second half, come on!! ”

Coach Westafar is right, the Kings did not play badly in this game, otherwise they would have collapsed in the face of this defensive intensity, and they fought hard to catch up with the score in the second half and won this game with great hope.

Heading into the second half, as Westafal coach had hoped, the Kings quickly found their chances, with Cosby and CuarΓ³n going into the second half. Butler hit two three-pointers in a row to catch up with the score at once!

The atmosphere at FedEx Arena was tense all of a sudden, and the advantage that the Grizzlies had worked so hard to build up in half a game was fleeting!

"Oops! What a pity! These two three-pointers really hurt! You look at the atmosphere on the Kings bench, and their morale is up all of a sudden...... The team's attacking prowess is indeed ...... It's really a problem, I hope the team stabilizes the state, doesn't panic because the score catches up, and continues to play the defensive performance in the first half, and at the same time, Rudy's play at this point today is good, and you can consider giving Rudy more balls in the second half......"

The Grizzlies did make the Kings feel resilient in the rest of the game, but it wasn't Rudy, who had a good first half of the game, who stepped up. Guy, but a man that even the home team fans didn't expect, was Gilbert. Arenas!

The Kings completed the lead in the first half of the third quarter, and although the scores of the two teams continued to be entangled, Grizzlies fans began to fall into anxiety. And in the first three minutes of the fourth quarter, everything changed......

Coach Hollins sent Arenas on the court just to give the main point guard Conley a certain amount of rest so that he could go all out to win in the final decisive moment, but Arenas played a performance that made the home fans boil at such a time.

Arenas holds the ball in the front court, and it is Thomas Jr. who defends him at this time, and in the face of Thomas Jr.'s height, Arenas directly pulls out a three-point shot!

"Oops! Gilbert also made a hasty move! Organize the attack, now it's a requirement to be stable, does he really think he's still at his peak?! Seeing Arenas' hasty move, Bleven in the commentary seat. Knight yelled in displeasure.

"I'll go! Entered, entered!! ”

Arenas' three-point hollow net!

Then the Kings made a throw from Cousins inside, and then it was Arenas who responded!

The Grizzlies organized an offense in the frontcourt, Arenas gave Mayo, Mayo didn't have a chance to shoot, Arenas ran without the ball, Mayo handed it to Arenas, and he didn't hesitate to drift to shoot three-pointers!

"Gilbert is here again! Don't throw like that anymore, it's not our team's style, steady...... I'll go!!! It's in again! It's in again! ”

"Gilbert broke through and squeezed Isaiah away with his body. Thomas, mid-range step back, jumper!! Go !! again Pretty! It's so beautiful! ”

Not only were the two commentators shocked by Arenas's performance, but the audience was also rekindled at this time, and everyone went from doubt to anticipation at this time!

"Gilbert holds the ball in the front court, goes inside to Zack, Zach passes it out, to Rudy, Rudy plays patiently, take a look, Omi. Cosby pressed hard, and then gave it to Gilbert, and shot! Gilbert is another three-pointer...... Again! Gilbert scored 11 straight points on 4-of-4 shooting!! ”

Arenas' strong outburst allowed the Grizzlies to overtake the Kings by 5 points again, and Tyreek, who was sitting on the bench, witnessed the whole thing, and Tyrek was in a complicated mood at this time, Arenas as an idol and friend, Tyrek was naturally happy for him, and as an opponent, Tyrek was distressed.

At this time, the home fans of the FedEx Arena are in a frenzy, and it is not common to see Grizzlies players put on such a powerful scoring performance, and the once invincible Washington Agent Zero is wearing the Grizzlies No. 10 jersey tonight, and is back to glory again!
