Grizzlies starting lineup: Andrew Harrison, Troy Williams, Tony Allen, Jamakau Green, Marc Gasol.

Jump Ball!

As soon as the whistle blew, the referee tossed the ball high.

Embiid tossed the ball to Rondo.

Zhang Zifeng received a pass from Rondo in the front court, and Embiid ran to the inside and fought for the position with Gasol Jr.

Although Embiid didn't believe that Zhang Zifeng would pass the ball to him, the head coach said that this game would be dominated by himself, so Embiid could only trust the head coach and get ready.

Zhang Zifeng held the ball and did not attack by himself, seeing Embiid card Gasol Jr. behind him.

Zhang Zifeng immediately hit the ground and passed the ball to the opponent's hand.

Embiid was very happy to receive the ball.

The agent didn't lie to me, he actually negotiated with the manager.

The team really wants me to be the tactical core.

No, as soon as the ball opened, it was passed to me.

Embiid was very excited, even when he faced Gasol Jr.

Even if the opponent was the best defensive player of 2013, Embiid was still not afraid to hit the opponent in the low post.

The ball landed, and Embiid dribbled with his back to play two consecutive backs to advance to the penalty area.

Compared to Gasol the Great, Gasol Jr.'s technique is not as delicate as that of his eldest brother. But Gasol Jr. is tougher than Gasol Jr.

Gasol Jr. carried Embiid to the death, not letting the opponent easily push into the penalty area.

Confrontation of power in its purest form!

Embiid felt that the guy behind him was a little stronger than him.

Maybe it's because he's been banned for too long, or maybe Embiid wants to prove himself in front of everyone.

Even if he can't play hard, Embiid still doesn't give up, and he wants to prove that he can carry a team.

A strong hitting posture deceived Gasol Jr., and then Embiid turned around, opened up a little space with Gasol Jr., made a small hook shot, and the ball fell neatly into the basket.

Seeing the ball go in, Embiid roared excitedly and ran back.

"Originally, the most important thing in the Grizzlies was their interior line, but it can be seen that Embiid is very excited today, which is a good thing for the 76ers!" ESPN commentator Mike. Brin looked at Embiid on the court and said with a smile.

The Grizzlies' offensive control was in the hands of Gasol Jr., the team's current core player.

was punched in his head by Embiid, how could little Gasol swallow his anger.

Although Gasol Jr. is not very delicate, he has learned how to survive here after years in the NBA.

It's about playing to your strengths and attacking in the low post with a tough back.

Gasol Jr. leans forward, his back trying to hit him backwards.

Embiid obviously felt some pain in his chest, and was hit by Gasol Jr., and suddenly took a step back.

Pushing into the restricted area, Gasol Jr. quickly turned and jumped, grabbed the ball with one hand and dunked it into the basket.

Gasol Jr.'s forbearance response ignited the passion of the Federal Express Arena.

Gasol led the team to seven straight points shortly after the start of the game, and the Grizzlies led by three points at 11-8.

Not to be outdone, Embiid also contributed 5 points and made a foul on Saul Jr., making 2 of 2 free throws.

A few minutes before the game, the game completely turned into a hand-to-hand fight between Embiid and Gasol Jr.

Embiid completely let go of his hands and feet, even in the face of Gasol Jr. did a good job.

Embiid performed very well, Zhang Zifeng seemed to be trying to fulfill the other party, only scored 3 points, 2 assists, and grabbed 3 rebounds in the first quarter, becoming very low-key.

The two sides then alternated points, and the Grizzlies ended the first quarter with a four-point lead at 28-24.

Breaks.

Although the 76ers trailed by four points, head coach Brett. Brown wasn't in a hurry. He turned to Embiid and said, "Joel, good first quarter. Keep working hard for the next races! ”

Embiid was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly shouted, "Yes, coach, I will!" ”

After speaking, Embiid also glanced at Zhang Zifeng defiantly.

Seeing Embiid's overflowing and triumphant look, he was speechless, if it weren't for the head coach and general manager telling him that in order to make Embiid brush up good data, Embiid would be the main player in the last few games.

Otherwise, Zhang Zifeng will blow up immediately!

Forget it, it will be Embiid's last glory in the 76ers, and Zhang Zifeng decided not to see him in general.

After the break, at the beginning of the second quarter, Embiid once again held the ball and beat Gasol Jr.

This completely angered little Gasol.

For Embiid to score 11 points on his head in the first quarter, Gasol Jr. was very unhappy.

Now the other party still wants to score points on his head, which is obviously looking down on himself.

Gasol Jr. was determined to teach his opponent a good lesson and show him why he was the best defensive player.

Gasol Jr. lowered his center of gravity, his left arm rested on Embiid's waist, and his right arm was raised high.

Embiid dribbled and back-to-back, only to find it harder to push than he did in the first quarter.

Unable to continue the attack, Embiid suddenly shook his shoulder.

Gasol Jr. was not fooled again this time and moved his feet.

Embiid shook again, and then suddenly forced a turn and cut inside.

Cutting into the restricted area, Embiid wanted to go to the basket with one hand, when suddenly a big hand appeared in front of the basketball.

Syllable!

The tremendous power came, so that Embiid could no longer hold the basketball in his hand.

The ball was fanned out of bounds, and the 76ers had the ball.

Ibaka served, and after Zhang Zifeng received the ball, he made a tactical gesture.

"Call me?"

Embiid looked at Zhang Zifeng's gesture, thought for a moment, and quickly reacted.

Although Embiid is very unwilling and wants to get back on the field. But in the first quarter, Zhang Zifeng passed a few good balls to himself, and he had to repay the other party no matter how he said it.

Otherwise, it will not be good to be said to be ungrateful and uncooperative.

Embidra came out to cover.

"Beautiful cooperation, Zhang Zifeng broke through the penalty area with the help of Embiid's cover." Mike. The Brin man shouted.

Facing Zhang Zifeng, who suddenly came in, Xiao Gaso followed closely.

Gasol Jr.'s best defensive player is not fake.

Under the defense of Gasol Jr., Zhang Zifeng did not hit the basket well, and Zhang Zifeng jumped directly near the free throw line.

Pull-up jumpers?

Gasol Jr. also picked up and stretched out his hands, trying to block Zhang Zifeng's shooting space.

Just when Gasol Jr. thought that Zhang Zifeng would inevitably make a mistake.

Zhang Zifeng collected the ball and passed the ball to Embiid who cut inside Gasol Jr.

After receiving the ball, Embiid dribbles and jumps hard.

Originally, Fat Randolph moved slowly, but now that he is older, it is even slower.

Embiid slammed into the box and dunked into the basket with both hands.

Bang!

The basket squeaked, and Embiid pulled his hands hard and jumped down.
