Chapter 207: Tension

Since there is no such capital, Stan. Van Gundy can only use shabby packs and change subtle defensive strategies. However, he himself did not expect much from this. Who made the combination of this package was Oj Mayo, who was blown up by Ding Moan from both offensive and defensive ends in the first half, and Ding Moan scored 20 points efficiently, and Sido Tekoglu, who was not good at single defense.

And after Ding Moan held the ball to the half court, Oj. Mayo reluctantly clung to it, his eyes fierce. Although this game caused the Grizzlies infighting incident in the middle of the game, the boos of the media's inside and outside geniuses before the game were not fun and so eye-catching. However, O.J. Mayo's face when he provoked Ding Mo'an before the game was still very memorable.

And as the game progressed, at this moment, Oj. Mayo, who was clamoring before the game to let Ding Mo'an see his progress, was swollen. While Ding Mo'an got twenty points of the half from him, he didn't forget to give him a gift package. 3 points, 2 assists and 2 turnovers, this statistic is not for Stan. Van Gundy has no one available, and because the Magic guard line has been lacking strong players, he would have gone to the cold bench a long time ago.

Oj. Mayo was never a person who would feel like he was wrong, he felt like the whole earth revolved around him. This is an extremely egoistic person, so he has always thought that Ding Mo'an ruined him, and it is his hatred for Ding Mo'an, at the beginning, Oj. Mayo was like a mad dog, and the moment he saw Ding Mo'an, he wanted to rush up and bite it regardless of it.

However, how could a guy like O.J. Mayo, who was hanged and beaten a few months ago, have an impact on Ding Mo'an. In the first quarter, when Ding Mo'an ran without the ball to seek an open opportunity, he was a little useless, and the rest of the time was passed by Ding Mo'an!

To deal with a mad dog like O.J. Mayo, first of all, you can't let this mad dog have a chance to catch up with you. So at the same time that Oj. Mayo rushed towards him, Ding Mo'an also used force at his feet, stabbing out like a spike, and the powerful explosive force crushed Oj. Mayo's defense to pieces, easily tearing through Oj. Mayo's first line of defense.

At the same time, when O.J. Mayo's first line of defense was torn apart, Stan Van Gundy, who had been watching the game from the sidelines, immediately looked to Hido Tekoglu. The reason why Stan. Van Gundy will arrange it like this, but he is also worried that Ding Mo'an will be like now. Mayo, like him, doesn't use any skill at all, just simply and rudely uses speed to pass people and pass the bag.

He will be Hildo. Tekoglu is placed a little further away to prevent this from happening. However, under Kerstein. Van Gundy was dumbfounded. After Ding Mo'an passed O.J. Mayo, his speed did not slow, and he dribbled sideways to change hands, pulled to the other side, avoided Hildo Tekoglu, and accelerated straight to the inside.

Now, Stan. Van Gundy was stunned. Even if he didn't have much hope for the bag between O.J. Mayo and Cidor Turkoglou, it was two people! No matter what, standing on the NBA arena are the best basketball players in the world, Ding Mo'an is so easy to get over the bag, just like crossing the road, no one can accept it.

And Stan. The bag arranged by Van Gundy didn't even last five seconds in Ding Mo'an's hands, and it was declared a failure. It also caught the Magic interior line off guard, and at this time they were still competing with their opponents for the card position! So when Ding Mo'an quickly stepped into the inside line, he got up and hit the basket.

Before everyone could react, the whole body hung straight on the basket. This is Ding Mo'an's twenty-second point, and this is only in the third quarter, which also means that if nothing else, Ding Mo'an may still get 30+ once, except for the ancient times in the whole league, which rookie can achieve the feat of scoring 30+ points in a row?!

And the most surprising thing is Ding Mo'an's truly terrifying speed. If in the game with the Rockets, Ding Mo'an successfully proved that his speed belongs to the top level of the league, and ordinary people can't get close. So now, Ding Mo'an tore the bag in five seconds and told everyone:

My speed! It's not a cat or a dog! I can block it!

There are also many people who are more sympathetic, and just now showed the textbook-style Magic team. In fact, there is nothing wrong with the tactics of the Magic team, but it attaches importance to Ding Mo'an's speed, and it is even more precautionary.

But the tragedy of the Magic team is the tragedy, the players who went up to cover Ding Mo'an, compared with the luxury package lineup of the Rockets in the last game, are not half a star. If Adelman had been here at this point, he would have mocked Stan mercilessly. Van Gundy daydreamed. To think about it, Team Rockets with Sean. Battier and Artest were able to barely limit Dingmoan's threat on the offensive end.

If Ding Mo'an was prevented by a few crooked melons and cracked dates of the magic team like this, wouldn't the rocket be wronged to death?

And Ding Mo'an's thunderous blow destroyed the Magic's bag, completely leaving Stan . Van Gundy was out of options. You can't always learn from Hollins vs. Dwight. Howard did that, if he couldn't do it, he would cut the shark. After all, Ding Mo'an is not Dwight. Howard, the guy who lives on the sky for free throws.

After all, Ding Mo'an's free throws are quite reliable.

But Stan. Van Gundy wasn't worried about Ding Mo'an affecting the win. Yes, it will be difficult for the Grizzlies to win against the Magic, a super strong team with invincible points inside and outside. Otherwise Hollins wouldn't have made a gamble to make Kevin. Lefour limits Dwight. Howard's strong point on the inside of the Magic.

Give up Rashad. Lewis is a strong point on the outside of this magic line. The bet is Rashad. Lewis missed. At the same time, after Ding Mo'an scored, the magic served. Because of the offense in the previous round, the Magic had already figured out that the Grizzlies were targeting Dwight. Howard, so in Dwight. Howard pretended to ask for the ball in the acting, but this time he directly handed the ball to the second boss Rassad. Lewis.

Although with him Kevin. Lefou, know Rashad . Lewis's threat, but Hollins's arrangement, can only make Kevin. Lefu pulled out a little bit. But the eyes are still on Dwight. Howard. That's a point that the Grizzlies have to curb at the moment, and Rashad is a point. Lewis just let him vote.

The overall strength of the team is weak, which is a point that the Grizzlies are helpless at present. So Rashad. Lewis confronts Kevin. Lefu is not strong, and it is even equivalent to the defense of throwing, taking the ball and running directly to the three-point position of the baseline. This is Rassad. The point that Lewis is most accustomed to. And let him go to the three-point line like this, Kevin. Lefu couldn't even give the last interruption.

Swish!

Three-pointer scored!

Rassad. Lewis's goal made Stan. Van Gundy's spirits lifted. Suppose Rashad . If Lewis can continue to maintain his touch, then no matter how outstanding Ding Moan's personal ability is, he can't resist the final blow from a projection power forward and an interior overlord center to the Grizzlies.

And because of Dwight. Howard was pinned down inside, leading to Rassad. Lewis had a chance to hit a three-pointer. The morale of the Grizzlies couldn't help but rise. But Ding Mo'an did not give up the game, continued to receive the ball and ran quickly to the court, using his practical actions to drive his teammates.

Breaking through the inside line with the ball again, Ding Mo'an did not choose to come by himself this time, and immediately distributed the ball to Kyle on the outside. Lowry. If you rely on yourself to score all the time, then when you get your physical strength or bad hands, it will be a nightmare for the Grizzlies. And as a leader, you must also learn to throw the blame on your teammates.

Otherwise, the game is all played by yourself, and what do you want your teammates to do.

However, Ding Mo'an, the boss of the team, is still more reliable than Kobe Bryant in Los Angeles. Didn't let Kyle. Lowry was startled and was able to catch the ball just right and shoot. Although Kyle. Lowry, a small guard, is not among the top in the league, but the skill you dare to throw is max.

Of course, this is the same skill as other small defenders. After all, smaller players, who are much more difficult than other big men who meet the league's standards, need to take every opportunity to show their value to their teammates and the team. So in Jamil, who is the same height as him. In front of Nelson, Kyle. Lowry made a three-pointer from the outside.

However compared to Rassad. Lewis, Kyle. Lowry really can't be called an outside battery. Because with the increase in Ding Moan's breakthrough points, the defense of Kyle. Lowry's Jamil. Nelson, a veteran, is also very clever. Almost in a split ball, let him cut off Ding Mo'an's pass.

And if it's just Jamil. Nelson's potential threat of breaking the ball will not be a problem for Dingmoan, who can transfer the ball to Darius who is empty. Miles and then quickly transferred to Kyle. Lowry. The real reason lies with Kyle. Lowry can't make it!

Lian Kyle. Lowry, the only guy who can cooperate with Ding Mo'an on the outside, can't shoot three points, and the burden of offense is all on Ding Mo'an. Inside scoring point Kevin. Love, too, couldn't help defending Dwight. Howard didn't tire him out half to death.

Therefore, although the Hollins tactics worked to temporarily strangle this demonic beast, the price paid by itself was not a lot. At the very least, the Grizzlies lost a scoring point. And as the game progressed, the Magic team became more and more fierce. This is also the reason why the Magic team is called a strong team.

A strong team can never lose its combat effectiveness because they have more than one strong point because they have more than one strong point. It is also due to the inside offensive point Dwight. After Howard was limited on the offensive end, and after he became a blue-collar interior to focus on defense and rebounding, the Magic's second and third scorers also kicked in.

In fact, to put it more nuciently, it was the Magic's shooters who began to stab the Grizzlies one after another in the most critical third quarter.

The first to strike was Rashad who was vacated on the defensive end. Lewis, when he hit the first three-pointer, head coach Hollins was still reassuring himself that he would definitely not make the next shot.

But after hitting two more goals in a row, Hollins was already looking for a quick-acting heart-saving pill. And after Sido Tekoglu, who had joined O.J. Mayo to get Ding Mo through a sieve, stabbed the Grizzlies, Hollins couldn't help but call a long timeout with three minutes left in the third quarter.

The Grizzlies now continue their efficient scoring despite having Ding Moan, and before facing the Magic's powerful offense, they still cut 10 points to maintain the difference between 15 points. But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the grizzly bear is now at the end of its crossbow. As long as Ding Mo'an is no longer physically active, it is when the Grizzlies lose the game.

And Ding Mo'an, who was sitting on the bench at the moment, was also tired enough, and casually received the staff handing over a label printed with his own exclusive label, and the team specially made a sports drink that suited his physique, and then took a sip and took a white towel to cover his wet head to rest.

Head coach Hollins didn't bother Ding Moan's rest. In the eyes of everyone, including him, they all think that Ding Mo'an has fulfilled all his responsibilities, and even exceeded. Hollins also understands that if it weren't for Ding Mo'an's desperate impact on the inside, he didn't hesitate to be tired and half dead, desperately scoring to control the point difference, and the game would have ended under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Magic shooters just now.

It is for this reason that with just over a quarter left in the run-up to the game, there are very few opportunities left for the Grizzlies to fight back. And now it's not just Ding Mo'an who is experiencing a physical crisis. Lefou, Mark. Gasol wasn't much better. After all, defending Dwight. Howard, limiting this super center, is not easy.

Ding Mo'an, Kevin. Lefou, Mark. Gasol

These three are the cornerstones of the Grizzlies' current fighting power. Needless to say, Ding Mo'an is a well-deserved team leader, whether on the offensive or defensive end, his play is an indispensable part of the Grizzlies. Kevin. Although Lefou's role is not as big as Ding Mo'an, it is also the team's interior offensive strength and has a good ability to score inside.

The Last Mark. Gasol is even better than Kevin. Lefou, it's hard to have a performance on the offensive end. Of course, only Mark can be blamed. Gasol was so unlucky that he faced Yao Ming and Dwight in two consecutive games. Howard, the two super centers, would not have scored two games in a row, averaging only five or six points per game.

Now the three important components of the fighting force, accumulated like this, also declare that the Grizzlies may not be able to win this game. In this situation, especially with the Magic shooters at full firepower, there is really nothing Hollins can do to restrain his opponent.

If there is an extra point of attack or shooter on the front line, or even one more point of attack or shooter, Hollins will not hesitate to let Kevin . Love did his old job and went to attack on the inside. With three strong scorers, Hollins isn't really afraid of magic. But now Kyle, who has half a point. Lowry is no longer able to help the team.

It has brought the grizzly bear to the point of exhaustion. There are only two options left in front of them: let the players keep going or simply switch to the bench in the fourth quarter.

Hollins was more inclined to the last option in his mind. After all, this game is completely different from the Rockets' game. Fortunately, in the crucial quarter, the Grizzlies were still able to fight against the Rockets at that time, but the Magic completely overpowered the Grizzlies in momentum.

So instead of wasting the player's physical strength, it is better to save some energy, after all, seeing that there is no hope of victory in the fourth quarter, the matter of voluntarily surrendering has almost become an NBA convention. However, Hollins felt that he should ask Ding Mo'an, the team leader's opinion, but got Ding Mo'an's categorical reply.

"It's impossible to throw in the towel!"

Although Ding Mo'an was tired enough, he still said firmly: "Coach, I understand what you mean. But we are a rebuilding team and we have to live up to a belief that we don't admit defeat! ”
