Stoudemire prepares for a free throw.
O'Neill walked over and looked at Li Lei's wound: "Little brother, if it doesn't work, go back quickly." Anyway, if you can't get on, I'll win today! ”
Li Lei moved his shoulders to get used to the pain.
"Really? You're going to win? I didn't say yes! ”
Swish!
Here, Stoudemire hit a free throw.
10:0。
The Grizzlies didn't score one point in the opening three minutes and fell into a scoring drought.
Milicic and Lowry didn't make any shots.
Memphis fans are very upset.
But when Li Lei got the ball, these fans instantly quieted down.
There is light in their eyes, and trust.
Li Lei pulled everyone together and advised: "Leave the scoring to me."
You're not in good shape, so you put more effort on the defensive end.
Of course, if I pass the ball to you, I will shoot decisively, even if I don't miss all the time. ”
Milicic, Gasol, Hill, and Lowry all nodded.
Li Lei is right.
You can not vote, but you must not dare to vote.
As long as you try to shoot, you will eventually find your touch.
But if you don't dare to vote, it will be equivalent to one less person on the field, how to fight four or five?
When he got to the frontcourt, Li Lei called Milicic's blocking.
Taking advantage of Milicic to block Raga? Bell, Li Lei accelerated to get rid of.
O'Neill was forced to switch guards.
He ran hard and pounced on Li Lei.
But age and weight still limit O'Neal, and he is no longer the big shark he once was.
Li Lei got enough space and pulled up the free throw line position directly.
Swish!
Pregnant.
10:2。
Li Lei broke the scoring drought for the Grizzlies.
And Li Lei didn't celebrate, he returned to the defense as soon as possible, and reminded his teammates while running: "Defend!" Defend! Speed ......"
Inspired by Li Lei, the Grizzlies retreated quickly, put on a defensive formation, and did not give the Suns a chance.
The Memphis fans in the stadium also spontaneously took action, shouting:
"Grizzlies, defend!"
"Defend, Grizzlies!"
……
This round, the Grizzlies gave it their all, and every player on the court did everything they could, limiting their opponents and helping their teammates.
In the face of such a suffocating defense, Stoudemire's strong attack could not be scored.
Bang dang!
Milicic protects the rebound.
Grizzlies offense.
Li Lei continued to cooperate with Milicic at the free throw line.
Same place, same way.
Li Lei pulled it up and threw it.
Swish!
10:4。
Suns offense.
The Grizzlies' defense is still suffocating.
However, Nash showed strong offensive ability, hitting mid-range shots to stabilize the situation for the Suns.
12:4。
But soon, Li Lei pulled up in that position again.
And then...... Swish!
12:6。
Third consecutive mid-range shot.
Li Lei just stared at O'Neal's defect that he couldn't quickly change his defense, and bombed wildly.
"It is worthy of being a two-time scoring champion, and now the stone wants to score a score that is really demanding, like entering a no-man's land!"
Zhang Weiping did not hesitate to praise him.
Suns offense.
Nash once again attacked with the ball, and under Lowry's stalking, the shot was deflected.
Grizzlies offense.
Li Lei continued to block and dismantle with Milicic at the free throw line.
It doesn't matter what tricks are single or not.
One trick is fresh, eat all over the world!
However, the Suns made a change.
O'Neal stayed under the basket and didn't run out of the basket with Milicic.
Instead, Stoudemire ran out.
Xiao Si's steps are much more flexible, the change of defense is fast, and it is not too much of a loss to prevent Li Lei.
This time, Li Lei didn't get a chance to make a move.
There was a stirring at the scene.
Suns bench, Mike? D'Antoni also breathed a sigh of relief.
finally restrained Li Lei.
Although D'Antoni is an attacking coach, he is not devoid of defense.
This adjustment is very spiritual.
However, Li Lei was not in a hurry, he didn't shoot as soon as his brain was hot, but retreated outside the three-point line to stabilize the rhythm.
After some adjustments, Li Lei started again, and successively changed direction past Stoudemire and went straight to the basket.
O'Neal guards the basket, and the behemoth guards the rim.
This is an iron wall, and Li Lei can't please him.
Li Lei was forced to stop.
O'Neill directly closes hand-to-hand combat, giving confrontation.
Li Lei naturally would not choose to confront O'Neill, it was to hit the stone with an egg, and it was boring to talk about himself.
Power and tonnage, O'Neill crushed Li Lei.
However, Li Lei also has his own advantages, that is, speed and flexibility.
Sticking to O'Neill, Li Lei turned around sharply directly.
O'Neill slid sideways and firmly guarded against Li Lei.
"O'Neal is so well defended!"
However, Li Lei did not stop, and in turn it was a big turn.
O'Neill moved sideways again.
"This defensive ......"
And taking advantage of this time, the rest of the Suns team also pounced and became a trap on Li Lei.
Seeing that Li Lei was wrapped in dumplings.
Li Lei had an idea, drilled under O'Neal's arm, jumped up directly, flew from the left side of the basket to the right, and hit a backhand layup.
Bang, boom!
Entered!
12:8。
"Damn, this ball is awesome!"
"Yes, I thought this ball was gone, Li Lei was surrounded, there must be no more, and it turned out that this could be scored......"
"It's really creative, I feel like I'm seeing Kobe...... Now Li Lei is really omnipotent, mid-range shot, long-range shot, basket, ultra-long-range...... The whole field was Li Lei's attack position. ”
……
O'Neill also shook his head helplessly, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He really defended the ball well, but he still couldn't stop Li Lei.
Mike also feels the same way? Coach D'Antoni.
He couldn't help but wonder: Can his team really guard against Li Lei?
Throughout the first quarter, Li Lei scored 19 of the Grizzlies' 29 points.
End of the first section.
The Grizzlies are just one point behind.
In the second quarter, the two sides were still fighting fiercely.
In order to stay ahead of the game, Mike? D'Antoni "died" the main team and barely let the starters rest.
In the first half, there were 24 minutes in total.
Nash played a full second.
Stoudemire beat the second.
Dior beat the second.
Bell beat the seconds.
Even the 36-year-old O'Neal hit the second.
But at half-time, the score was just.
The Suns only led by 1 point.
The reason is that Gasol found his form and scored 8 points in a single quarter in the second quarter, giving Li Lei enough help.
And in the third quarter, Lowry played the role of a surprise soldier, even with sudden shots, scoring 11 points in a single quarter.
The stalemate continued.
End of the third section.
Deuce.
In the fourth quarter, the two sides entered a very difficult stage.
The physical exertion on both sides is huge, and both sides are consecutive shots that do not score.
The fourth quarter lasted nearly three minutes and there was no point on either side.
At the critical moment, Li Lei stepped forward and scored a mid-range turnaround jumper to break the deadlock.
The opposite Suns also handed the ball to O'Neal, but unfortunately O'Neal's physical exertion was too great, and the offense under the basket was not successful.
Looking back, Li Lei continued to hit mid-range jumpers.
The Suns gave the ball to Nash, who couldn't score.
The Grizzlies counterattacked, Li Lei made a fast break by himself, and scored another 2 points on a layup.
That's it, Li Lei scored 6 points in a row in the crucial fourth quarter, and suddenly opened up the difference.
Subsequently, O'Neal and Nash still did not give up, and the two MVPs took turns to attack, but unfortunately age limited their play.
They're getting old after all.
On the other side, Li Lei is young and full of physical strength, and he can still maintain efficient scoring in the fourth quarter.
Ultimately.
The Grizzlies pulled one back and rewrote the score to 1:1.
In this game, Li Lei got 39 points, 7 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks.
Gasol had 20 points, 9 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks.
Lowry had 17 points, 4 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 steals.
Hill had 13 points, 2 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 1 block.
Four Grizzlies scored in double figures.
On the Suns' side:
O'Neal rebounded, 3 assists and 2 blocks.
Stoudemire had 22 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks.
Nash had 19 points, 4 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 steals......
The Suns' three-core team also played well, but unfortunately they couldn't get back.
The current big score is 1:1.
After the game, fans generally believed that the gap between the Grizzlies and the Suns was not large, and the series was likely to reach six games, or even a tiebreaker.
But fans never expected that the Grizzlies did not give the Suns any more chances.
In the next few games, there was always someone for the Grizzlies to step up.
Hill, Lowry, Gasol, Guy...... The more you cooperate with Li Lei, the better you play.
Instead, the Suns' problems gradually came to light.
The first is age.
O'Neal is 36 years old and Nash is 34 years old, and the two men are getting more and more tired in a tense, intense series, and they are not performing as well as they did when they were younger.
The second is the problem of running-in.
Throughout the regular season, O'Neal didn't fit into the Suns.
In the first two games, O'Neill played well, and the problem was not exposed.
And with the decline of O'Neill's physical strength, this problem was suddenly exposed.
And just like that, the Grizzlies won two on the road in Phoenix and returned to Memphis to win Game 5.
The scores were:
。
。
The Grizzlies eliminated the Suns 4-1 and advanced to the second round.
……
The rest of the duels also ended one after another.
Lakers vs. Nuggets.
Anthony played a great game in this series, averaging 25.9 points, 5.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists per game, and was extremely good defensively.
It's a pity that the combination of Kobe Bryant and Garnett is too incomprehensible.
In the end, the Lakers swept the Nuggets 4-0.
Spurs vs Jazz.
GDP is as stable as an old dog, and the Jazz were eliminated 4-1.
Hornets vs Mavericks.
These two teams also fought fiercely.
The Hornets won a home game first, and the Mavericks immediately pulled one back.
The Hornets went to Dallas to win another road game, and the Mavericks immediately equalized.
In the battle of Tianwang Mountain, Peja scored 29 points and 7 rebounds to help the Hornets win.
In Game 6, the Mavericks equalized the next time.
In the final tie-break, Paul scored 22 points, 5 rebounds, 10 assists and 4 steals, Peja had 19 points and 4 rebounds, Yi Jianlian rebounded, and Chandler rebounded and 4 blocks......
The Hornets had the last laugh.
This side to the east.
Eagles.
The defending champions, the 76ers, have an overwhelming advantage.
Yao Ming, O'Neill duo, Iguodala, Joe? Great role players like Smith and Korver, bench gangsters like Durham Porter.
The Eagles really didn't have a chance at all, played four games and went home fishing.
Magic vs Raptors.
The Magic, like the 76ers, has a super lineup, didn't give the opponent any chance, and swept 4:0.
Celtics vs Wizards.
The Greens also had the advantage, winning 4-1.
Pistons vs Cavaliers.
This group was evenly matched, and it was difficult to solve, and finally the "little emperor" James led the team to eliminate the opponent in seven games.
At this point, the list of opponents for the second round is out.
Westward:
Lakers vs Spurs.
Hornets vs. Grizzlies.
Eastern:
Cavaliers.
Magic vs Celtics.
It is worth mentioning that almost all the Chinese players have advanced.
Sun Yue of the Lakers, Yi Jianlian of the Hornets, Li Lei and Zhu Fangyu of the Grizzlies, and Yao Ming of the 76ers.
And in the next round, the Hornets play the Grizzlies.
Yi Jianlian will compete with Li Lei and Zhu Fangyu.
This has made Chinese fans look forward to it.
