One Thousand Four Hundred and Ninety-Five. The Thing Popovich Regrets Most
What is talent?
You can tell from this kind of details!
Every time Paul George misses a goal, he tries to adjust. He will not be discouraged next time he has a chance, but will continue to shoot the way he thinks he should adjust.
Sun Ce gave Paul George enough trust, and Paul George finally scored!
72 to 74, the Grizzlies narrowed the gap to two points, and the Spurs called a timeout!
4 minutes and 14 seconds into the third quarter, less than 5 minutes later, the Grizzlies played a 14 to 8 offensive frenzy!
The bench was already excited!
For Sun Ce's show at the beginning of the second half, his teammates said that their waists could still bear it!
22 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 block, 1 steal, Sun Ce's data once again blinded his teammates' eyes. In the past 4 minutes, Sun Ce got 7 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 block!
You can't refuse to accept it! The teammates can tolerate Sun Ce's occasional convulsions and can tolerate this guy making trouble every other day without beating him, because of this.
Coach Hollins quickly made a substitution, Tony Allen and Prince went down, Klay Thompson and Yi Jianlian came on!
Coach Hollins thought Randolph should still be able to play, and Yi Jianlian should be able to play the rest of the third quarter. The second half of the fourth quarter might still rely on this inside combination...
Thinking of the next four games, Randolph and Yi Jianlian's inside combination might be the team's strongest inside combination, and Coach Hollins felt a little sad.
It's not that he didn't know that this inside combination was quite useful, mainly on the offensive end. The athletic power forward was paired with Randolph to defend the basket or to contain the basket in positional battles, and the offensive end would play very well.
But one of these two is fat and the other has average physical strength. You can't expect these two to play the full 48 minutes, right?
That's why he tried various inside partners as much as possible in the first half.
At this time, if one of Larry Sanders and Stoudemire could play, the situation would be much better... Of course, the reason why this problem is so troublesome is because the opponent is the Spurs. If it's an ordinary playoff team, there won't be so many problems.
But at this point, Coach Hollins knew that he couldn't care so much.
There was no time for him to try again. It was hard to narrow the gap with Sun Ce. Now it was time to defend!
However, looking at Sun Ce's arrogant look, Coach Hollins still wanted to hit him...
On the other side, Popovich couldn't stay calm either.
Unscientific!
It's just a bug!
Back then, they didn't use George Hill and Richard Jefferson to trade the rookie with the Warriors. Popovich felt that this was their biggest mistake in more than a decade. Even if they appreciated Sun Ce at that time, they felt that the Warriors were too expensive.
But now, Popovich feels that he would be willing to send Parker away at that time!
But things have come to this point and it can't be reversed.
Popovich replaced Danny Green and Dio with Parker, Gay and Duncan. This is their strongest offensive combination.
...
After the timeout, the Grizzlies began to take the advantage!
And the source of the advantage is Sun Ce!
Tonight, Sun Ce's outbreak, the teammates are very accustomed to it, not at all.
It's not a psychological feeling, but a feeling of playing the game.
Because Sun Ce used the Big Bird card, using this card has the least impact on his playing style except for Sun Ce using his own card.
Big Bird is like a Sun Ce with weakened athletic ability, enhanced shooting, and ultimate technical enhancement!
After the Spurs sent out the strongest offensive lineup, the firepower was fierce.
However, on the Grizzlies side, Yi Jianlian's cut-in was a huge threat, Randolph was fat against fat under the basket, Dio alone could not limit Randolph's rush, and Duncan had to help.
So, Sun Ce, who made a threatening shot from the outside, and Paul George, who had just made a three-pointer, helped Klay Thompson create three consecutive three-point opportunities. Klay Thompson made 2 of 3 shots, and after the official timeout in the third quarter, he made the second three-pointer, raising his personal score to 20 points. At the same time, the Grizzlies also tied the Spurs with 80 to 80 at 7 minutes and 15 seconds in the third quarter!
Then, Duncan turned and cut in, received a pass from Dio, and made a layup before Sun Ce could make up for the defense. But this time, Klay Thompson made his sixth three-pointer in a single game, triggering the Splash!
Sun Ce got a chance to play one-on-one on the outside, and with the help of Yi Jianlian's pick-and-roll, he shot a three-pointer at Duncan...
"The Splash Level 3 is triggered. If the host's three-point shot is not blocked, the interference on the shot will be greatly reduced..."
"The Ball-Holding Pick-and-Roll Expert Level 5 is triggered. If the host does not pass the ball after the pick-and-roll, he will choose a three-pointer within two seconds, and the three-pointer evaluation will be temporarily increased by two small levels..."
S-level top arc three-pointer! With the bonus of the Splash, Sun Ce shot a three-pointer against Duncan's defense!
83 to 82, after two quarters and 8 minutes, the Grizzlies finally overtook the score!
25 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 block, 1 steal. Watching Sun Ce's data continue to rise, the Spurs players seemed to have returned to the first game of the second round of the playoffs last season.
No matter how hard you try, you can't stop Sun Ce's rising data!
And it's not just fake data, Sun Ce really helped the Grizzlies to play superbly!
When the Spurs attacked, this time Sun Ce relied on his judgment of the opponent's pass to move his feet in advance, and after the "food cut" was triggered and the opponent's passing line was determined, Sun Ce, who had already moved his feet in advance, stole the ball from Duncan to Gay!
Sun Ce was about to counterattack when he was hugged by Danny Green. The Spurs committed a tactical foul and organized the Grizzlies to counterattack!
This foul was the Spurs' third foul in this quarter. The number of fouls had not yet reached, and the Spurs called a timeout.
Popovich had to replace Duncan. Without Duncan, their defense would decline a lot, but he didn't want to break the agreed rotation plan from the beginning because of one game.
Facing the Grizzlies' three new outside stars who could compete with the Warriors' outside line and the Lakers' talent, or when they had already started shooting, Popovich made a decision to let go of the attack!
The lineup of George Hill, Ginobili, Gay, Jeff Ayers, and Dio came on the court.
In this lineup, the two inside players are both 206 cm tall, and their defense is not very good, but they are fast!
…
After the timeout, Popovich looked at the combination of Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Richard Jefferson, and Yi Jianlian. He knew that his judgment was right. The opponent would definitely increase the offense regardless of the consequences. The bald man on the opposite side was a madman.
The Grizzlies had the ball in the backcourt. Sun Ce passed the ball to Paul George. When he got to the frontcourt, he started to run without the ball. After running around the baseline, he ran back. At this time, Paul George broke through George Hill and passed the ball to Sun Ce. Sun Ce ran back and attracted Ginobili's defensive attention. Sun Ce received the ball and passed it to Klay Thompson without stopping.
Splash Brothers connected!
Klay Thompson received the ball and made a three-pointer!
