In the half, Iverson made 3 of 13 shots, plus 4 free throws, scored 10 points, and barely scored a double-double in the half, along with 2 rebounds and 3 assists.

Although Maddy focused all his energy on the defensive end, he was extremely efficient in the half, scoring 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting, along with four rebounds, three assists and two steals, completely overpowering Iverson.

The Grizzlies also led the 76ers by as many as 15 points at 55:40 at halftime.

At this stage of the game, the winner and loser are basically decided.

In the second half of the game, Iverson's hand still couldn't adjust back, and as soon as the third quarter came up, DuangDuangDuang hit five irons in a row, and finally scored two more goals, and the third quarter ended.

The Grizzlies finished 81-70, leading the 76ers by 21 points.

Larry Brown was also a grumpy, and seeing this point difference, he directly withdrew all the main forces in the fourth quarter and gave up the game.

Qiao Hai also gave the 76ers face and directly replaced all the players in the depths of the bench on the court.

As a result, a strong duel ended after three quarters, and the data of the main players on the court were all frozen.

Maddie played more than two quarters, 8 of 12 shots with high efficiency, scored 22 points, 6 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals, on the other hand, Iverson, almost full of three quarters, 5 of 20 shots, only 25% shooting, scored 17 points, and 3 rebounds and 5 assists......

Towards the end of the game, McBrin summed up the game: "Maddie completely overpowered Iverson, and this game can be said to be a Grizzlies victory, or it can be said to be a personal victory for Maddy. ”

"If it weren't for Maddy's injury for nearly three months, maybe he would have locked up the regular season MVP this season, instead of being the current one, with Allen Iverson as the MVP favorite, followed by O'Neal."

Marv Albert also commented, mentioning the regular season MVP, he continued: "The defeat of two Maddie's men has become the MVP's favorite, and I have to say that the injury made Maddie miss out on this MVP, and I don't know if he has a chance to snatch this MVP back......"

In the end, the Grizzlies defeated the 76ers 107-93.

It was a resounding victory, without any suspense, so much so that the atmosphere was warm at the beginning, and the Wajovia Center Court, which was constantly booing the Grizzlies, suddenly fell silent between the third and fourth quarters of the second half.

Because most of the fans chose to leave the stadium, garbage time in the fourth quarter, large swaths of the stands were empty.

After the game, Joe found Larry Brown to shake hands.

"A good game." Larry Brown smiled, looking like he didn't take the loss to heart.

Qiao Hai also smiled: "That's right, it's indeed a wonderful game." ”

The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Qiao Hai observed Larry Brown's expression, and Qiao Hai knew that it was impossible for Larry Brown not to take this defeat to heart.

It can only be said that Larry Brown is hiding what he really thinks in his heart, as for "it was a good game"? Qiao Hai felt that he could say this, but if Larry Brown said it, it would be a joke.

The 76ers played badly, so to speak, the Grizzlies did a good job, and the 76ers couldn't say that they were wonderful.

……

At the post-game press conference, Larry Brown brought Eriksno to attend, Eriksno's strength is average, but he can start the 76ers, he is the kind of locker room leader type of player, and he has a high prestige in the 76ers.

It can be said that Larry Brown's ability to control the 76ers locker room with Iverson has nothing to do with Eriksno.

At the press conference, Larry Brown criticized the 76ers' performance in this game, and after separating from Qiao Hai, he revealed his true thoughts, and he was dissatisfied with the 76ers' performance.

Throughout the regular season, the 76ers performed well, and the East was unbeatable.

But being double-killed by the Grizzlies, and the game was so ugly, that Larry Brown couldn't see any hope of winning the championship, or at least no hope of winning the Grizzlies.

So, Larry Brown believes that the 76ers need to change and improve, otherwise this season will still be an empty run.

On the other hand, in the Grizzlies' post-game press conference, Qiao Hai simply said a few words, and did not mention the pre-game war of words, which did not seem to happen at all.

But the reporters didn't give in and asked two questions.

Qiao Hai's answer was still perfunctory: "Tracy suppressed Aaron? Yes, this game looks like this. ”

"Did the results of the match prove that Tracy is better than Allen? No, I don't agree with this argument, this game is just that Tracy is in better shape, and Allen is in average form, and in the next game, if the two of them fall in form, it will be a different result. ”

"When was the next encounter? I don't know, maybe the finals? Maybe it's next season......"

After a few questions, Qiao Hai kept a low profile.

But in the home and away team's locker room, Maddie and Iverson, who were also interviewed, obviously will not be low-key.

Maddie was surrounded by several reporters, some from ESPN, some from Hoop Sports, some from Yahoo Sports, USA Today, or Sports Illustrated.

In short, there are reporters from all major media outlets.

Facing reporters, Maddie said eloquently: "That's right, in this game, whether it is the team or me, we have won all the results. ”

"My performance was perfect? Yes, I'm happy with my performance in this game as well. ”

"Why did I only take 12 shots in this fight? Because I was very efficient, I scored 22 points on 12 shots, and the boss told me that my main task in this game was defense, so I put most of my energy into the defensive end. ”

This group of reporters often interviews Maddy, and they know very well that the boss in Maddy's mouth, or the boss in the mouth of all the Grizzlies players, is talking about Qiao Hai.

It's also a unique culture for the Grizzlies, and all the players will call Joe the boss.

"That's right, we did a good job defensively, allowing Allen Iverson to score just 17 points on 5-of-20 shooting, which was the root cause of our victory." Maddie continued to answer questions.

After an individual and team victory, Maddie looked confident.

"What if the playoffs meet? Haha, that's only the Finals, and if we can make it to the Finals and the 76ers make it to the Finals, I'm sure we'll be the ones who win......"

……

At the same time, in the home team's locker room, Iverson was surrounded by many reporters.

Unlike Maddie, Iverson was a little depressed, and he was in really bad shape in this game, but in fact, this season, Iverson has often played this kind of explosive game.

Iverson's style of play is like that, when he explodes, one person can hack a team, so he's going to keep shooting, unlimited shots.

So, a lot of times, he also has that kind of explosive iron fight.

Once he blasts the iron, the 76ers don't want to win any games.

Despite the low mood, Iverson still accepted the interview, and at the end of the interview, he said: "Our goal this season is to win the championship, and if we meet the Grizzlies in the Finals, I will get revenge!" ”

"I want to see the Grizzlies make it to the Finals and then we meet them, and I'm going to play well and make up for the mistakes of this game and kill them!"
