Chapter 166: Rectification to the Dead

At halftime, the atmosphere in the Grizzlies locker room was very lively. No one would have thought that in this confrontation of strength and weakness, the Grizzlies, who were clearly on the underdog, would take a 10-point lead after halftime. And in the second quarter, especially the Rockets also sent Sean. Battier and Artest, two of the league's recognized top defenders, limit the core of the Grizzlies, and Ding Moan, who has always been the strongest firepower of the Grizzlies, can still take a double-digit lead, which is really jaw-dropping.

And the laughter that came out of the Grizzlies locker room from time to time also told everyone that the Grizzlies players were also surprised, even surprised, by this result. You must know that before the game, Grizzlies players generally did not have any hope for this game, even if the Grizzlies rebuilt this season and traded away veterans who are accustomed to failure, rebuilding the Grizzlies ethos.

The gap, which may be visible to the naked eye, still made these Grizzlies players feel powerless before, and it wasn't until Ding Mo'an stood up to motivate them that they raised their fighting spirit. But after two quarters, the Grizzlies took the lead and left these previously unconfident Grizzlies players in a trance.

Is this something they can do? Can you push the Western powerhouse to the ground and rub half-time time to achieve a double-digit advantage?

The Grizzlies players were a little surprised by the power they played, but they all knew in their hearts that the presence of such a person was the key to their ability to do this. Coincidentally, they all focused on Ding Mo'an, who was lying on the only massage table in the away team's locker room.

In this game, Ding Mo'an's play completely shattered the illusions of many media before the game. 20 points, 2 rebounds, 1, steals, 2 blocks, statistics and on-court performance, the best in the game. BA's debut, which can cut this statistic in the first half, is not an exaggeration to say that it is terrifying.

Even many superstars in the league, such as Kobe Bryant, who sat on the cold bench in his first season, could not reach Ding Moan's statistic. And today, it is recognized that the most amazing NBA debut, except for the ancient gods, is the big shark O'Neal, who ushered in his NBA debut as the champion. O'Neal finished with 12 points, 18 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 3 blocks on 4-of-8 shooting.

Then came the shortest champion who played 37 minutes and shot 12-of-19 from the field and scored 30 points and 6 assists. Iverson, and finally LeBron, known as the Little Emperor. James, who had 25 points, 6 rebounds, 9 assists and 4 steals in his debut.

This is the first debut result of the previous champion show in the whole field, and it is also the most amazing debut battle in the whole league. But the person who compares their hearts with them is not the top pick in the 2008 draft, but Ding Mo'an, who explores the flower show. Even Ding Mo'an's half-time data has already crushed Rose, who played against a weak team and made his debut.

And Ding Mo'an achieved such amazing and even all-round data in the first half, who dares to guarantee that Ding Mo'an will not score in the second half, and will not grab the board in the second half, or use his own death entanglement and blocking? No one can guarantee it, and even everyone has a hunch in their hearts that they may be going to witness the most amazing debut in history!

As for Ding Mo'an's data, anyone with a little brain will not believe it. In this game, Ding Mo'an faced an opponent who was not a fish belly team, nor a rookie pecking at each other, but a Rockets team that was in full swing, with Maddie, Yao Ming and a group of people like Sean. The Rockets of Battier and Artest with these excellent role players!

In the face of such a Rockets team, Ding Mo'an not only performed well, but also led the whole team to suppress the Rockets after halftime, taking a very lead, and the leadership temperament was undoubtedly displayed. And the media also have no illusions about Hei Ding Mo'an. If Ding Mo'an's statistics are excellent, but the team has never played the Rockets, you can say that Ding Mo'an is a cancer, but Ding Mo'an is excellent in terms of personal data and the team's performance on the court, which is perfect for people to have nowhere to black, as for the assist data is zero, sorry, do you care if a scoring guard wants an assist?

It is expected that after Ding Mo'an enters the NBA, like many media reporters who have entered the NBA without being seen, they will return disappointed. But at this time, the Grizzlies players in the locker room slowly identified with Ding Mo'an's leadership identity in this game, after all, who doesn't want to follow a big brother with ox X points?

At the same time, the halftime break was over, and because they had a ten-point lead, the Grizzlies players were in high spirits and looking forward to winning the game. And head coach Hollins also changed the rotation lineup. This is inevitable, although the starting lineup that played two quarters in a row and the physical strength, no one has three lungs, and it will be difficult for the Grizzlies to play this game.

And the more critical the game, the more anxious the following games, the physical requirements are very great, if the final starting lineup is exhausted, only the strength is obviously weaker than the starting lineup A large number of substitutes, then Hollins is really going to beep the dog. This is a wise choice in front of anyone, but in Adelman's opinion, it is undoubtedly a signal, a signal to fight back!

Because of the inside and outside core of the Rockets, Yao Ming and Maddy have taken a break plus halftime, and they are very physically energetic, and Adelman has never put the Grizzlies' advantage in his eyes, in his opinion, as long as the Rockets are on the court, the difference of ten points can be easily smoothed out.

And when the third quarter was halfway in, it was just as he thought. The Grizzly Bears' weak bench lineup, after facing the physical strength, can be called an inside killer, and Yao Ming, who is at the level of nuclear weapons, was suddenly blown up. But that's not all, the first quarter was silent for a long time, and even Maddie, who was pressed by Ding Mo'an, slowly found a feel in this half section.

directly shared half of Yao Ming's scoring tasks, and the two of them beat the Grizzlies bench lineup stupidly. When the point difference was directly erased, and even the Rockets completely widened the difference to five points with Maddy's unsolvable three-point shot, Hollins' face was blue and purple for a while.

After waving his hand to put the lineup on the field, he immediately came up and five down, and put Ding Mo'an and them on the court, Hollins glanced angrily, and Adelman, who now looked very proud, was almost a middle finger.

"Old fox!" Seeing this, Hollins no longer understands Adelman's intentions, and he should not be the head coach. In fact, Hollins also felt that something was wrong before, and the Rockets starters, who were obviously inseparable from their own starting lineup, suddenly did not play in the second quarter and were replaced by Sean. Battier and Artest to restrain Timian.

Although it makes sense to use them to limit Ding Mo'an, when the score slowly increased, Adelman did not make substitution adjustments, and did not even strengthen the interior line to suppress Kevin, who played well in the second quarter. Lefou, which made Hollins suspicious.

But Hollins didn't expect Adelman's real killer move to be here, and he suddenly attacked in the crucial third quarter to give the Grizzlies a fatal blow, unless the Grizzlies resisted the pressure of the Rockets at the same time, they could also suppress the Rockets to slowly chase the points and re-establish the lead, until the end of the game, otherwise the pressure will be all on the Grizzlies' side.

"But...... Is this possible? ”

Hollins asked himself in his mind.

If it is against the Rockets' starting lineup who also played two quarters like Ding Mo'an, or more accurately describe Yao Ming and Maddie, the two players who can decide the outcome of the game, Hollins still has a glimmer of hope in his heart. Because in terms of physical fitness, Ding Mo'an, who plays fast attack, is not afraid of consumption.

Moreover, in today's game, Ding Mo'an can lead the team to fight with the Rockets' starting lineup, but now Maddy and Yao Ming have far more rest time than Ding Mo'an, and even Yao Ming will not appear in the fourth quarter, so Maddy will take over the game alone to decide the winner.

Yao Ming, who is full of physical energy + Maddie, who is slowly recovering his hand, is definitely a nightmare for all teams. But when the Grizzlies face this nightmare, all Hollins can rely on is to stand on Ding Moan, and only the Grizzlies core can give him the last hope. And seeing the players on the Grizzlies bench lineup on the court from the lead to the end of the five-point trail, the mood can't help but be low.

Ding Moan was the last to take the court, comforting every teammate, and the small point guard who had shown good offensive power in the starting lineup, Kyle. Lowry lowered his head and high-fived Ding Mo'an, his face full of self-blame.

Because in the third quarter of the game, Kyle. Lowry can be said to have been blown up by Maddie. Especially Maddy, he likes this small point guard very much, so every time he hits a big guy, he especially likes to find Kyle. Lowry.

Maddie's pampering, Jean Kyle. Lowry couldn't afford it. And after Maddy took over the Rockets' offense, he scored consecutive points to overtake, and all of them were in Kyle. on Lowry. Despite Kyle. Lowry has a tonnage that can be called a small tank, but in the face of Maddie, who has no offensive means, his tonnage does not play any role, but his height does help Maddie a lot.

For example, in the three-point shot before Ding Mo'an came on the court, Kyle, who is 1.8 meters tall. Lowry became the perfect backdrop. But despite Maddy's bullying Kyle. Lowry is a short suspect, but Kyle. Lowry was still scarred and devastated.

"You've done a great job! I'll take care of the rest! Ding Mo'an patted Kyle. Lowry's shoulder, how difficult it is for Maddie to defend, Ding Moan is clear. But Kyle. Although Lowry is much different in height from Maddie, everyone can see his hard work when defending.

So how could Ding Mo'an and his other teammates blame him, so Ding Mo'an was relieved again: "Have a good rest, there is still more than one section of the game, I don't know when Coach Hollins will replace you." And your style of play is correct, and that three-point shot in the first quarter of the game is eye-catching, so don't doubt yourself because of small setbacks, you're doing a great job! ”

Kyle. Lowry nodded gratefully, small guards are easy to be discriminated against in the NBA, a league full of people, and even many people think that they can enter the NBA is a fluke. The gloom in Lowry's heart was suddenly cleared.

And Ding Mo'an is very understanding, like Kyle. Lowry is a small player who is generally below the standard height of a point guard. Because these small players can stand on the NBA court, it is already a great success, and it is much more difficult for them to survive in the NBA than ordinary players.

And Kyle. The reason why Lowry can't be Mike. Conley's pass-oriented point guard is also because small players need more opportunities and statistics to prove themselves, and scoring is the best chance to appear. Besides, Kyle. Lowry's performance still made him shine, and his three-point shooting ability was good.

Now the Grizzlies' most lacking scoring means is the three-point shot, after all, the team has Ding Moan, a mid-range shot and breakthrough expert, and Kevin. Lefu is an all-round scorer inside, but it just so happens that the two generally have no three-point ability. Then after the team's two major scoring points lack three-point offensive means, the three-point shooting ability of role players is particularly important.

At this time, when Ding Moan and other Grizzlies starters returned to the court, they began the first attack of the starting lineup in the third quarter. Meanwhile, when Ding Moan returned to the field, Adelman gave head coach Hollins another scare. Because at this time, Adelman also made substitution adjustments!

Maddie, Sean. Battier, Artest, Louis. Scola, Yao Ming

The Rockets' lineup really surprised everyone, as this lineup did away with point guards and adopted an all-tall lineup. The man who organized the offensive ball turned into Maddie to play the two-way position. Such a strange lineup, but the murderous intent behind it makes everyone feel a solemn atmosphere.

Adelman is trying to kill the grizzly bear!

Needless to say, Sean. Battier and Artest once again joined forces, and the person they targeted was clearly Ding Moan. And Ding Moan is the offensive core of the Grizzlies, and in the second quarter of the game, Artest and Sean. Battier showed everyone how to restrain Ding Moan.

Although Ding Mo'an still scored in the end, compared to the 16 points in the first quarter, Ding Mo'an only scored four points in the second quarter. Such a disparity in scoring has made everyone see the terrible nature of such a luxurious defensive lineup, even if Kobe Bryant is entangled by the two now, it will be a headache.

And after Ding Mo'an was limited in scoring, even if he made good achievements on the defensive end, it was not what the Grizzlies needed. Now the Grizzlies need Ding Moan to score, not to defend. Because even if Ding Mo'an defends Maddie well, Yao Ming, who can be called a nuclear weapon on the inside, can still make the Grizzlies lose the game.

Adelman's catch-up move made Hollins on the other side feel powerless. If there is one more person in the Grizzlies who stands up and shares the scoring pressure for Ding Mo'an, then he dares to be sure that Adelman will never dare to be so arrogant, let two people defend Ding Mo'an, and leak one person.

But the point is, there is no one on the Grizzlies! Hollins initially put his hopes on Batum, but Batum was like a soft lamb when he met Artest, and he had no ability to fight back, and he only scored 6 points in the game so far.
