165 Strong bear
The Nets' game against the Grizzlies kicks off at the Memphis Union Center, also known as the Torture Chamber and the Bears' Den.
It's definitely not for the sake of sound, and teams that come here to play generally have a sense of punishment, because the Grizzlies are a team that takes defense very seriously and relies on defense to play.
The Grizzlies value defense and have defensive capital, and any team playing with them is like participating in a wrestling match, and there will be a huge torture in terms of physical strength and willpower.
The Nets and Grizzlies game will have to endure this challenge first.
Because before the game, the Grizzlies and Nets were arguing, mainly because the Grizzlies complained that there were many fans who followed the game.
TNT's famous commentators Ross Barkley and Kenny Smith were also on hand to explain today's game.
Barkley also said before the game; "Today's game is not going to be an easy game anyway, the Grizzlies' defense will make the Nets suffer, the Nets have Horn here, and Horn will not let anyone take advantage of him easily!"
Kenny Smith also said excitedly at this time: "If today's game is a low-scoring game, the Grizzlies will have the advantage, and if the score is moderate, the Nets will take advantage!" “
The two continued to comment for a while, and the game finally began, and the Grizzlies side of the twin towers definitely had the height and interior advantage. Mark Gasol came up and grabbed the scrum, and the Grizzlies went on offense.
Unlike Pau Gasol, who is getting older, Marc Gasol is on his way to the top, his brother is getting older, and Gasol Jr. is getting better and better.
The Grizzlies grabbed the ball, and immediately the Grizzlies began to attack brutally, at a time when the whole league was taking a light and agile style. The Grizzlies are still sticking to the way they played 20 years ago like a big mom in a small town.
When the Grizzlies came up, Gasol Jr. immediately infiltrated and gave Conley cover. Then quickly go down the card position yourself. At this time, Conley passed the ball to Rudy Guy on the wing, and Guy smoothly stuffed the basketball into the basket from 45 degrees.
Gasol, who got the ball under the basket, turned left and right, pressed inward, raised his hand to make a feint, and then took advantage of the trend to score 2 points with a throw.
The Grizzlies played the inside line as soon as they started, and they also opened it on Gasol Jr.'s side, and the ambition was to break your inside line first.
The goal on the Grizzlies' side is too obvious, and the Nets turn back and want to play their own offense. But I felt the pressure all of a sudden.
The Grizzlies are desperately coming out to defend at this time, putting huge physical pressure on every player and every detail of the Nets.
The Nets themselves are not good offensively, and Williams does not have the ability to dominate the offense, and once the Grizzlies increase their defensive efforts at this time, the Nets are a little overwhelmed, and finally the basketball is handed over to Wallace to deal with.
Wallace is not a person who handles the ball, he took the ball and forced it to hit the inside, but was directly slapped to death in the penalty area by the black and white bears.
Wallace is also a fierce man, but in the face of the Memphis Twin Bears, he is as immature as a bean sprout.
Wallace's side couldn't attack, and the Grizzlies immediately came over. Conley takes the ball on the outside and Gasol does the pick-and-roll.
The Nets' defensive pick-and-roll is a substitution and then a pounce, so that the Nets can save two people. The middle was empty, and Conlima passed the ball in to Gasol Jr.
At this time, Gasol Jr. passed a god-level pass, a back pass to Tony Allen on the foot, Allen did not have three-point ability, and the fast legend gave Rudy Gay.
Guy shook the ball and got into the Nets' restricted area in one step, and it was too late for Lopez to catch up.
Guy took the ball and dunked Lopez with both hands on his head, "Bang Dang!" ”
At this moment, the Grizzlies' home court became excited, and the Grizzlies opened with a low-post strong play and a violent dunk.
This strong momentum suddenly came to the fore, and the Grizzlies were going to shoot the Nets today.
The Grizzlies played so fiercely that the Nets suddenly wilted. The Nets are not a team that is very good at playing tough battles, this team is still not tough psychologically, and it still doesn't have the courage to be the first in the world.
The Nets were a little soft, and the Grizzlies immediately became unforgiving, and just beat the White Bears, and now the Black Bears are up and bullying Henry Forss with the ball.
Henry Fosse defended desperately, but still couldn't stop the furious black bear, the black bear dribbled two steps, raised his hand for a layup, Henry Foss couldn't control it a little, and was made a foul.
The Black Bears hit both free throws at the free throw line, and the Grizzlies went straight to the Nets 6-0 as soon as they opened.
At this time, the little general hurriedly jumped up to arrange the defense, he wanted to stabilize the team for a while, but at present, the Nets have no one who can stabilize the team.
Williams came up to control the basketball, but Conley didn't give him a chance, Conley desperately came up to defend closely, and pressed Williams with strength.
Williams has an advantage in strength, but he always seems to have concerns after coming to the Nets, and he didn't handle the ball well in his concerns, and hesitantly gave the ball to Lopez in the low post, and Lopez beat Gasol Jr., but it failed miserably.
The Nets missed, and the Grizzlies were really unforgiving, and they still beat Randolph directly when they turned around.
Randolph had a very wide range of catches, got the basketball in the mid-range shooting area, turned his head and arched into Henry Foss's arms, and hit the basket directly.
When Henry Fosse was in great difficulty, Randolph opened the way with his big head, knocked Henry Foss out of the way, jumped up and threw back for another 2 points.
"Brush!"
The Grizzlies played the Nets 8-0, which was definitely an extremely strong start, and the Grizzlies couldn't even breathe as soon as the Nets bullied them at the beginning.
The little general hurriedly called a timeout at this time, he had to call a timeout.
At the same time, the Grizzlies home fans cheered, and many fans were yelling: "Beat the Nets, beat the Nets!" ”
There were even some fans in the middle who angrily scolded Horn: "Let Horn get out of the stadium, let Horn be punished here!" ”
Barkley also said at this time: 'The Grizzlies started like crazy today, and they completely played with momentum. Now it's time to test the Nets' defense, if the Nets can stabilize the situation, it's okay to play next, if they can't stabilize the situation, the Nets will be eaten directly by the Grizzlies. “
"Yes! The Grizzlies will first foul all the Nets' interior lines, and the Nets will be unavailable in the second half, and then the Grizzlies will directly dominate the restricted area, and the Nets will not even have room to counterattack! This is the Grizzlies' wishful thinking, but the question is who the Nets can defend the black and white bears at the moment! ”
Kenny Smith was skeptical that the Nets could control the situation, and the Junior General responded with a simplistic takeaway, replacing him with Horn. (To be continued......)
