Chapter 637: He's Too Strong

Maddie has always been observing Carter not far from him in this game, because for the Grizzlies' leading player, the Boston Celtics' leading player is really too concerned, although he is really mature in this series and no longer pursues one-on-one with Carter, although he has now begun to consider the interests of his team, but for this cousin who has almost affected his life, it is impossible for him not to care at this time, but at this time, the opponent of the person he cares about is not him, It's his two teammates, Prince and Jackson, and Maddie can only be at home at this time to observe his movements, this game coach does not need him to defend Carter, his task is only to attack, organize, and become the core of the team's real on-court system.\\////

In the last game, Zhuang Fei's starting lineup is center Kirilenko, power forward Jackson, small forward Prince, scoring guard Maddy, and organizational guard James Posey, perhaps for the general basketball position rules, a team's five people on the court need to be divided into five positions, in this case, there will be the so-called guard and forward, in fact, at this time, for everyone, they all know that at this time, the starting lineup of the Boston Celtics is not the five positions defined by traditional basketball at all, It's an all-small forward lineup that was the same playup that Boston Celtics won in the second half of their last game.

So before this game, there were a lot of experts, media and even fans who could guess the starting tactics of the Boston Celtics in this game, for any team in the league that does not have a strong offensive player inside, this tactical system is simply a demigod, especially against the Grizzlies, a team that relies entirely on the outside on the offensive end, and in the league, it is estimated that the Boston Celtics are the only team that can form such a lineup composed entirely of small forwards, and more importantly, These five small forwards are not the kind of random number, although for the Boston Celtics, their tactical system cannot fully exert its power, after all, this is only a system that they have studied for less than half a month, although this system is very similar to Princeton or No. 5 tactics in subtle run-and-cut tactics, which can allow them to better and faster understand this Pat Riley's run-and-gun system, but again, the time is still too short.

For now, the Boston Celtics are also able to exert the power of this system. It's just that for the Boston Celtics, in the face of this Grizzlies with obvious flaws, plus the Boston Celtics have found a way to deal with Carter, in this case, this Boston Celtics actually took the absolute initiative at the beginning, but for the Grizzlies, 1 What can support them is whether Carter can regain his feel in the blockade of Prince and Jackson in this game, and Terry can also find the feeling that has been lost for a long time, as for Billups and Reed, These two outside players have really had a bad time in this series, and Billups has lost his past style in this series under the pestering of James Posey.

As for Reid, in this series, he and Terry kept switching between starting and coming off the bench, but it was really difficult to adapt to this style of play, for him, when facing the Boston Celtics, a group of outside defenders, he needed others to create opportunities for him, but in addition to Carter, Billups, a point guard who can create opportunities, did not show his ability to mean that Reed had less than half of the support of his teammates, and he was also playing very hard in this situation, This is also the reason why the Grizzlies have been forced to use Carter's singles like crazy in this series, perhaps for the Boston Celtics, the Grizzlies are their nemesis, and for the Grizzlies, the Boston Celtics are also their nemesis, but it depends on the number of points of the two sides and the amount of restrictions on the other side.

"Beautiful shooting, this game looks like Carter is in good shape" Kenny Smith looked at the players on both sides on the court and nodded a little secretly and said, this game The Boston Celtics' tactical system almost completely cut off the Grizzlies, the defending champion was completely caught in the need for Carter's personal singles at this time, under the pressure of the five small forwards of the Boston Celtics, it was extremely difficult for other Grizzlies players to even handle the ball, and the most disadvantageous thing was that because of the existence of Ben Wallace, so that Kirilenko, who appeared in the center position, can sweep the entire internal and external defense, which is almost 5 to 4 or 4.5 to 4.

In this case, the Grizzlies play quite simply, but for the Grizzlies, it is slightly comforting that although this team plays simple, it is very effective, and the most important thing on the basketball court is always whether the basketball can finally enter the frame, in this case, Carter is indeed an absolute top finisher in the league, after 12 of 30 in the last game, he quickly found a way to adjust in this game, Jackson and Prince's defense switched quickly, But even if the two defenses cooperate perfectly, there are always loopholes, and he can't be completely synchronized, in this case, Carter naturally has a chance, and can seize his own opportunity through one game, the new league leader is indeed the top existence in terms of ball quotient, so Kenny Smith, the Grizzlies' leading player, is also extremely appreciated.

"This kind of defense is too oppressive, almost every position of the Grizzlies is shorter than the opponent, except for Carter, almost every player is unable to get rid of the opponent in terms of athletic talent, or even lower than the opponent, in this case, the situation is completely one-sided, the Grizzlies are now completely dependent on Carter's shooting rate to continue their life, if Carter's shooting rate is down, this Grizzlies is also finished, the Boston Celtics are too terrible to give other players a chance at all, there is no mistake at all, The execution of this team is really terrifying" At this time, Barkley on the side also said with some amazement, in his impression, the most aggressive defense he encountered in his career was the Bulls led by Jordan at the beginning, but compared to the Bulls at that time, although the Boston Celtics were not as good as the Bulls in defense on the inside, but on the outside, it can be said that it was a point higher, and at this time, the Grizzlies were more difficult to have a strong interior line that could smash the Boston Celtics defense.

"It would be nice if this team could have a Duncan at this time, even if there is no Duncan, it would be possible to have a Gasol," Barkley finally looked at Carter, who was in a siege, and sighed.

"Yes, this is only a matter of the future, in the present, this Grizzlies is struggling, there is no suspense about the outcome of this game, now it depends on how long Carter can support, in the regular season, this Grizzly Bear did not show enough weaknesses, but the lack of Olajuwon and Rashid does have a great impact on this team, of course, maybe even Rashid is not of much use at this time, after all, he is not the kind of player who plays hard inside, but on the defensive end he and Ben Wallace cooperate better, Although it can't solve the problem on the offensive end, it can suppress the passing and cutting of these Boston Celtics forwards, and Ben Wallace is too thin at this time" and Kenny Smith said with a serious look when he heard Barkley's regret, at this time, the Grizzlies almost exposed all their dead holes in front of the Boston Celtics, and in this case, the game was basically able to be divided after a small half. Although at this time, the difference between the two sides of a Carter's outburst has not been large.

"Now, perhaps, for the Grizzlies, they are better than the Grizzlies, they should now have a clear idea of where their team is going to rebuild in the summer, and expect them to be able to perform better next year, and the Boston Celtics are really a little better than the Grizzlies in this series."

"Rick, it seems that this round of the series is also at the end of our journey" Although Jerry West is already mentally prepared for this result, but when it happens, he is still a little melancholy, this is the last game of his coaching career, and this season is also the last season, in this case, he naturally hopes that he can have the most decent and beautiful farewell, but from the current point of view, this is impossible, although for him, It's a good result to be able to bring the grizzlies to this point this year, but it's still below Jerry West's expectations.

"Jerry, I'm sorry, I can't help you" Rick Carlisle looked at Jerry West, who was a little lost at this time, and also apologized very sincerely, he was fired by Pistons General Manager Dumas after the Pistons lost to the Heat in this year's playoffs, and he received a call from Jerry West the day after his dismissal, in this case, it can also be seen that Jerry West appreciates him, it can be said that although he is an assistant coach of the Grizzlies, But most of the team's tactical play after he came to the Grizzlies was decided by him, it can be said that he is the de facto acting head coach of the Grizzlies, and the fact is that after Jerry West retired, he was the head coach of the Grizzlies, in this case this series made the Chinese play so badly, the Grizzlies' assistant coach is naturally responsible, and even needs to pay the main responsibility.

"It's not your fault," Jerry West finally glanced at the figure in front of the Celtics' bench and said with some wistfulness: "He's too strong" (to be continued.)
