Chapter 150: The game is over

When he got home from a busy day's work, Jerry West remembered the Lakers' game today.

"Phil is going to face Qiao Hai, I don't know how the battle is going."

Jerry West didn't think the Lakers would lose to the Grizzlies, so he didn't pay that much attention to this game, but after going home, Jerry West didn't have anything to do, sitting on the sofa in the living room, Jerry West held the remote control with difficulty, looked for a button, and turned on the TV.

NBC Sports, live streaming is ongoing.

The sound of the TV was a little noisy, and Jerry West didn't hear anything, only that Ernie Johnson seemed to be commenting on the game, and at this time, Ernie Johnson was shouting something excitedly.

"When people are old, nothing is convenient." Muttering, Jerry West found reading glasses and put them on the bridge of his nose.

Glancing at the TV, he glanced at the score, 85:65.

"It's 20 points ahead." Muttered again, Jerry West didn't care, he thought it was the Lakers leading by 20 points, so he said to himself: Sure enough, the Grizzlies are not a difficult opponent, and this game is easy to win.

Now, after this game, the criticism that has been surrounding the Lakers should be able to rest.

But then, after the third quarter was played, Cherry Miller began to sum up the third quarter that had just ended.

"In a surprising result, the Vancouver Grizzlies actually led the Lakers by 20 points at the end of the third quarter......"

"What, Grizzlies lead?!" Jerry West was startled and immediately looked at the TV, this time, he was much more serious, and his face was still serious.

The score is indeed 85:65, but the home team is in front and the away team is behind, so it should be - Grizzlies 85:65 Lakers, and the lead is the Grizzlies.

Jerry West was so surprised and furious that he even wanted to turn off the TV directly, but after a while, he held back with anger, because Jerry West wanted to know why, what happened, that the Lakers would fall behind by 20 points in the third quarter.

At the same time, Jerry West is also thinking about how he should deal with the subsequent storm of public opinion once the Lakers lose this game.

In the fourth quarter, Phil Jackson reintroduced O'Neal, who seemed to have completely ignored the 20-point deficit and still wanted to chase the points.

Qiao Hai was not in a hurry, and played with the bench for a while, but Maddie was added to the bench, relying on Maddie's threat in the middle distance, although the 20-point difference was narrowed a little, it was always controlled between 17 points and 18 points.

By the middle of the fourth quarter, Qiao Hai saw that Phil Jackson still hadn't replaced the main force, and he waved his hand without hesitation and also changed the main force back.

At this time, the main force of the Lakers had no intention of fighting, and the Grizzlies immediately expanded their lead as soon as they switched back to the main force.

Maddie scored a heads-up to lock his personal score at 25 points, and the Grizzlies regained a 20-point lead.

Raheem then scored two points to bring his personal score to 30 and give the Grizzlies a 22-point lead.

With a beep, the referee blew the whistle and Phil Jackson used up the last long timeout and made a substitution.

The main team left the field and came on as a substitute.

Qiao Hai smiled, looked at Phil Jackson, who looked very calm, and also called a few substitutes from the bench and made substitutions at the same time.

Point guard Earl Boykins, who did not play in the last opening game, this game Qiao Hai decided to let Boykins adapt to the intensity of the regular season, scoring guard Raga Bell, small forward Sean Marion, and power forward Wang Zhizhi, all three of them are rookies, Qiao Hai did not forget to cultivate rookies, so that these rookies can develop the characteristics of daring to fight in garbage time.

The center forward is Elden Campbell, who was also the player who did not play in the last game.

The Grizzlies off the bench didn't play Princeton anymore because they didn't have that condition.

But the bench was not bad, so the Grizzlies kept their 22-point lead until the end of the game.

……

There was a buzz, the timer beeped, and the game was over.

"End of game, 110:88! Vancouver Grizzlies beat the Lakers at home! A 22-point difference, the whole game was suppressed from beginning to end! It's a crazy race! The defending champion Lakers had just embarked on a new journey with great ambition and ambition, but they did not expect to be hit hard at the beginning! ”

"It was the former head coach Qiao Hai who defeated them, the hero who led the team to win the championship last season, this is a dramatic scene, everyone is looking forward to Qiao Hai's revenge, but before the game, no one thought that Qiao Hai could succeed in revenge, but! Qiao Hai did it! ”

"He's built a gorgeous offensive system in Vancouver, just like he did in Los Angeles last season, but it's a completely different offensive system than last season, and he beat the Lakers with a different offensive system!"

The summary of the tirade, but Cherry Miller and Ernie Johnson could not stop.

Although this game is a big score, one-sided hanging game, but combined with the on-field and off-field, there is no doubt that this game is surprising and extremely exciting, and Cherry Miller and Ernie Johnson, who commented the game from beginning to end, are very excited.

Die-hard Grizzlies fans on the sidelines were just as excited, opening the game with two straight wins, two straight wins at home, and the two defeated opponents were the Trail Blazers and Lakers, one was third in the West in last season's regular season, and the other was the defending champion.

Such a record gives hope to this group of die-hard fans who have been supporting the Grizzlies.

In both games, the Grizzlies played an extremely gorgeous offense, scoring 108 points in one game, scoring 110 points in one game, and averaging 109 points per game in both games.

Obviously, this season's Grizzlies are thriving, although they have only played two games, many people have seen that this season's Grizzlies are very different from previous seasons.

And the 24-year-old Chinese coach does have two brushes, creating a set of triangle offense in the Lakers, and playing Princeton in the Grizzlies, and in just a few months, the Grizzlies' Princeton tactics have been played well, and from the tactical level alone, Qiao Hai has done it perfectly.

At the end of the game, Qiao Hai and his teammates high-fived one by one, and several main players who played well Qiao Hai also patted them on the shoulder, and then, leaving the stage to the boys who won the game, he turned around and walked near the center circle, wanting to shake hands with Phil Jackson.

But after looking around, Qiao Hai didn't see Phil Jackson, but Kobe and O'Neal were still there, and the two came over and exchanged a few words with Qiao Hai.

didn't find Phil Jackson, Qiao Hai was a little disappointed, he lost a chance to pretend to be a slap in the face.

It is a routine for the head coaches of the two sides to shake hands after the game, but there is no hard and fast rule in the league, so he can't say that Phil Jackson left the court early, and it was wrong not to shake hands with him, Qiao Hai can only condemn Phil Jackson's impoliteness in his heart.

Then, without looking back, he also entered the player's tunnel.

Since I couldn't pretend to be a slap in the face on the sidelines, let's go to another battlefield - the post-match press conference.
