Chapter 71: Two wins at home
Battier is indeed a very good defensive player, and his height is much taller than Liu Su, and Liu Su wants to shoot in front of Battier, and the success rate is very low. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info And Battier also has a hand in defensive breakthroughs, if it weren't for Liu Su's speed being fast enough, it would be really difficult to get rid of Battier.
It can be seen that Battier's defensive ability is stronger than Rose's, and I don't know if he can trade it. In addition to defense, Battier has three-point ability and is a good team player.
The elder Dunleavy also admires Battier, who can defend a lot of players in the second and third positions except for some superstars. If Battier comes to the Clippers, the Clippers' defensive ability will rise a lot, and with Liu Su, they can form a defensive wall on the outside, and any player who bumps into it will have to hit his head and bleed.
The elder Dunleavy is worried about next season's lineup off the court, but Liu Su has to think about how to beat the Grizzlies on the court, and it makes no sense to think about anything if he doesn't beat the Grizzlies.
Battier followed Liu Su back and forth, he found that he was a little struggling to follow, Liu Su's speed was not the fastest, but the running position was extremely tricky, and he could always get rid of Battier with other players.
In the third quarter, the Clippers' interior was Carman and Brand, who had a long break in the second quarter and are now very physically active. Kaman stuck tightly with Gasol and played a big role on the defensive end, his strength was not the greatest, but it was still possible to carry Gasol.
Brand still looks a little short against the center, but fortunately, the Grizzlies center is really not very good. Against Brand, who was a head shorter, it was still difficult to score and could not help the team win at all.
The Clippers' offense is extremely fluid, and Kassel's offense is also very strong, and he is good at tandem teams, and he is better than Liu Su in this regard. Liu Su prefers direct passes and assists, and does not have much experience in tandem teams.
This is determined by Liu Su's game experience, he generally played inside in high school, and he didn't need him to organize the offense, pass the ball when there was an open space, and then get an assist. During the Olympics, he was more about passing assists and scoring, and he couldn't cultivate Liu Su's overall view in a few games.
This season, Liu Su's overall outlook has improved a lot, but it is much worse than Kassel, and he plays completely by his body. Kassel's organization made the Clippers run more smoothly, and after skewering balls with each other, they shot when they had open spots.
Bobby Jackson was much worse than Cassel in terms of team organization, and with Liu Su's ability to always pass lethal passes, the Clippers' scoring continued to climb until the sixth minute of the fourth quarter, and the Clippers had a 20-point lead.
Seeing that there is no hope of victory, the grizzly bear can only choose to surrender, this is a matter of strength, even if it fights to the end, it will not help.
Losing the first game, the Grizzlies wanted to win the second game, and the second game showed strong attacking power from the start. Gasol threw three balls in a row and opened the game with a 6-0.
Liu Su frowned, he had just passed three balls to Mobley and Brand, but none of them scored. Liu Su looked at Battier in front of him, beckoned to call Kaman to block him, and then Liu Su entered the penalty area in two steps, relying on Gasol's backhand layup to throw the ball into the basket.
In turn, Bobby Jackson once again wanted to hand the ball to Gasol, but Liu Su waited for him, jumped up directly, stretched out his hand to intercept the ball from the air, jumped again and grabbed the ball from the air, and then wiped Bobby Jackson and rushed to the Grizzlies half court and came directly to a chase three-pointer.
Liu Su scored five points in a row to stabilize the situation, and then began to create opportunities for his teammates. Kaman defended Gasol around the front and didn't let him catch the ball, making Gasol less threatening.
The Grizzlies' other players didn't play very well, and they weren't very successful in blocking and pick-and-rolling, and Brand was very good at blocking and pick-and-rolling. And Kaman has been blocking Gasol's route to block and dismantle, and Gasol will have to spend more physical strength if he wants to block and dismantle.
The Clippers have a lot of interior players, six of the seven interior players have been activated, and only Eundong himself is on the injury list. Therefore, the Clippers can let Carman fight against Gasol to his heart's content, consuming Gasol's physical strength, anyway, the Clippers have a lot of interior lines, and Ryan Gomez can also play the No. 4 position, which is equivalent to seven interior lines.
Battier switched defenses to defend Liu Su, Margeti broke out, and after receiving two balls from Liu Su, Margeti became confident and continued to impact the Grizzlies' interior line. Liu Su is also willing to pass the ball, Margeti will take three steps when he receives the ball and runs two steps, which is also Liu Su's assist.
can both brush assists and win, Liu Su is very happy to pass such a ball. Margeti knocked Gasol down in the ninth minute, and the Grizzlies' attack weakened a lot.
Taking advantage of Gasol's three minutes off the court, the Clippers stretched the score to 36:29, leading by seven points to end the first quarter.
In the second quarter, Gasol returned to the court and faced two new forces, Brera Xia and David Lee, and the Clippers took turns inside. Margeti went to rest, Radmanovic came on the field to increase the attack, Rose replaced Mobley to increase the defense, Liu Su also went down to rest, and Kassel came to organize the attack.
The Grizzlies also replaced the bench, the Clippers were too dominant on the bench, Gasol did not have the offensive power in the first quarter on the court, and the bench bandits facing the Clippers could not lead the team to catch up with the score, but pulled it bigger and bigger.
In the fifth minute, the Grizzlies had to change to the starting lineup, otherwise they didn't have to wait until the second half, and the Grizzlies could surrender at halftime. David Lee and Cassel blocked and dismantled the Grizzlies, and David Lee's mid-range shot made the Grizzlies bench despair.
After the Grizzlies started the game, they stopped the slump and caught up a little bit, and entered the second half with 14 points behind at halftime.
In the third quarter, the Clippers were once again on the lineup from the previous game, Kassel, Liu Su, Margetty, Brand and Carman. In the face of this lineup, the Grizzlies are really not good, Margeti seems to have eaten a stimulant, frequently impacting the Grizzlies inside, and giving Gasol a foul, less than three minutes, Liu Su also broke through and beat Gasol a 2+1, so that Gasol sat down on the court again.
Without Gasol, the Grizzlies were once again lost on the offensive end, Carman sat on the inside, Brand defended the block, and Liu Su was now on the outside, which suddenly made the Grizzlies dumb.
At 10:0, the Clippers hit an attack wave to end the third quarter with 87:66.
Trailing by 21 points in the third quarter, the Grizzlies haven't given up hope and want to chase back. But the Clippers have shown their determination to win, leaving Carman to defend Gasol, and the other starters have gone off the court and replaced them with a third bench: Hayes, Ryan Gomez, Rose and Howard Eisley.
In the face of such a lineup, the Grizzlies did not catch up quickly, and Ryan Gomez held back for many games, and he has not had much playing time since Margeti recovered from injury. Now he explodes as soon as he gets on the field, he is a player who can play inside and outside, and it is scary to play crazy.
When defensive expert Battier faced Ryan Gomez, it seemed a little useless, as long as he could be stopped, Ryan Gomez began to play back, and Battier's strength could not bear Ryan Gomez, a swingman on the front line.
In this way, the last glimmer of hope for the Grizzlies was buried by Ryan Gomez and Carman.
