Chapter 120: Randolph's Metamorphosis

Chapter 120: Randolph's Metamorphosis

The Grizzlies showed excellent form tonight, and the in-form Grizzlies formed a strong team that was not inferior to the Spurs.

In the first half, the Grizzlies' interior Zach Randolph and Al Jefferson combined to score 31 points, and their strong offensive dominance broke down the interior barrier formed by Marc Gasol and Love.

There's no room to fight back!

It's only the first half, and the Grizzlies have scored 53 points, five points ahead of the Timberwolves, who are in poor form tonight.

Tonight's Grizzlies are in excellent shape, the whole team seems to be kneaded into a whole, harmonious and natural, on the other hand, the Timberwolves, after the adverse reaction of the away game came up, many players showed a sluggish state, and sometimes ignored the choice of timing and began to become blind.

Conley understands the point guard position very well, he knows what he needs to give to this team, and tonight's game, he perfectly connected the five positions on the court, organizing the team's offense while still firmly controlling the rhythm and not letting the rhythm get out of the way.

Because of this, the Grizzlies will suppress the Timberwolves tonight, and at one point gave Gomez the illusion of facing the Spurs.

The Grizzlies were in good shape tonight, and their interior strength was a little too strong tonight, with the two interior big men of Al Jefferson and Zach Randolph completely beating Love and Gasol Jr. on the offensive end.

In terms of offensive skills, Al Jefferson and Zach Randolph are both players who have been in the league for many years, and their offensive skills are beyond the reach of Love and them.

Al Jefferson, in particular, is not good defensively, but he is a good player on the offensive end, and as long as there is a guard with excellent passing and control ability to provide him with ammunition, Al is fully capable of playing an All-Star performance.

The value of an All-Star power forward is completely immeasurable, and the firepower that comes with being suppressed on the offensive end is not something that any team can easily withstand.

When Al was originally in the Timberwolves, Li Shihao controlled the ball, and he inevitably took care of both inside and outside when distributing the ball, and used part of the ball on the outside offense!

And the weakness of Al's sluggish and low defensive skills has been magnified infinitely, and everyone can clearly see Alger Jefferson's struggle on the defensive end, which is undoubtedly a great damage to an interior lineman.

Part of the reason for Al's departure from the Grizzlies is that in the long run, Al will be labeled as a data brush, and his defensive ability, which has been criticized from time to time, will become the biggest obstacle to winning a big contract.

The Grizzlies are different, just like the Timberwolves' current interior line, Lefu can form a complement to Gasol Jr., and Gasol Jr.'s all-round skills can take care of both inside and outside, whether it is strategy or blocking, it can provide great help.

Love focuses on defense and rebounding, and every rebound he grabs can bring the ball to the team, especially frontcourt rebounds, which are more likely to be converted into real points under the second offense.

Moreover, Lefu also has a three-point shooting technique, although it can't hit a heinous rate like those sharpshooters in the league, but due to the advantage of the high battery, pulling outside the three-point line is completely impossible to defend.

The effect is equivalent to that of a weakened version of the "German tank" Nowitsky!

The same goes for the Grizzlies, the arrival of Al can be a complement to Zach Randolph, and Eyre's lack of defensive ability can be made up for by Zach Randolph, and similarly, Al provides Zach Randolph with constant offensive firepower.

Randolph's offensive end has been further troubled this season, and he has become one of the toughest big men in the league to deal with.

Randolph's 260-pound fat body, combined with his excellent flexibility, is enough to terrify most of the league's interior players.

This season's Randolph has turned into a terrifying double-double machine, as long as he is equipped with a good passer, an average of two doubles per game is not a problem for him at all, and if there is Al's share of the ball, Randolph can still score 20+10 data.

This season's Randolph is very much like a weakened version of "Big Shark" O'Neal, which is enough to show his dominance! He is much more reliable than the often silly "little shark" Bynum of the Los Angeles Lakers.

If Kobe Bryant is given a swap option, Kobe Bryant will definitely choose Randolph as his teammate, with Randolph on the inside to attract firepower for himself, and at the same time share the offensive point, Kobe will undoubtedly play easily.

Randolph is a big man who is good at taking advantage of his physical condition, this black fat man plays very smartly, and he understands how lethal his thick body looks like plump and fat!

In the past, Randolph was a restless master, proficient in fighting, hiding drugs, and was regarded by many teams as a cancerous figure, such a guy will only worsen the locker room environment and will not bring good chemistry to the team.

Most teams are eager to throw him out of the league before it's too late, how can they favor this black fat man who causes trouble everywhere?

However, Randolph, who moved to Memphis this season, changed his attitude, and the disgusting black fat man began to have the focused character of a professional basketball player.

He's starting to work on the defensive end, and every game the Grizzlies have seen this black fat man fighting for every rebound and defending every opposing player.

It is precisely because of this "notorious" Randolph that the Grizzlies' restricted area began to become an existence that all teams in the league could not ignore.

This Grizzlies team is still growing, they still have potential to tap on the inside, they are still young on the outside, and when this team grows up, it will become a formidable force in the league!

No one knows why the fat black man suddenly became good, and the uniform team in the league just noticed that the Grizzlies made a lot of money in the trade for Randolph from the Clippers.

No one knew one thing that had always been deeply ingrained in Zach Randolph's heart.

In the 07-08 season, Randolph played in 69 games for the New York Knicks, averaging 19 per game. 6 points and 10. 2 rebounds.

But when the regular season ended, no one praised his performance, and when everyone saw the second-to-last record in the East of the New York Knicks, they blamed all the failures on Randolph, who they thought had not only become a locker room scourge, but now a data brush.

Randolph can't forget the end of that season when Knicks management was looking around to trade him, but no team in the league wanted him!

He's a super interior with an average of nearly 20+10 per game!

Only the Grizzlies in Memphis reached out to New Yorkers, who were willing to accept Randolph, who was seen as a cancer.

Although the deal didn't go through, Randolph never forgot about it, and it wasn't until he moved to the Grizzlies that he truly felt at home in Memphis.

That's why this big black bear transformed!
