One Thousand Five Hundred and Twelve. Bullying of Two Top Scorers!
54 to 46, the Grizzlies opened the point difference to 8 points!
23 to 13, in the second half of the second quarter, the Grizzlies relied on Sun Ce and Klay Thompson to jointly score 4 three-pointers, creating a crazy offensive wave!
The referee almost blew the whistle when he saw Klay Thompson's last move, but luckily he held back this time.
The Grizzlies can counterattack, and Klay Thompson is a very important part. This can't be thrown out casually, as it will affect the enjoyment of the game too much.
Especially after the 7-6 score in the first half of the second quarter, the Grizzlies' indiscriminate bombing in the second half was extremely entertaining.
Klay Thompson played 18 minutes in the half, scored 10 points, scored two three-pointers, a long two-pointer, and a cutting layup, a regular performance.
The defensive lineup had Paul George doing the dirty work, which did not affect Klay Thompson's shooting. He made 4 of 7 shots, including 2 of 4 three-pointers.
But Sun Ce exploded!
Played 18 minutes in the half and made 7 of 12 shots, including 3 of 5 three-pointers, plus 3 of 4 free throws, a surge of 20 points!
He also added 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 4 blocks and 1 steal!
Irving, who had 13 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists in the half, and Anthony Davis, who had 12 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks, played so hard and performed so well, but they were still beaten by Sun Ce!
Moreover, the two of them were overwhelmed by Sun Ce alone!
Irving was unable to refute Klay Thompson's provocation on behalf of Sun Ce, because they really couldn't bear Sun Ce's anger!
…
The score was 23-13 in the last 5 minutes of the first half. Sun Ce scored 11 points in the half and Klay Thompson scored 6 points in the half. The two together scored more points than the entire Pelicans team, giving the Pelicans It was a huge confidence blow to the players.
When the Grizzlies "normalized" on both ends of the offense and defense, the Pelicans no longer had an advantage with the strength they showed.
And Sun Ce and Klay Thompson broke out in tandem, scoring 17 points in the first half of the quarter, destroying the confidence of the Pelicans!
In the first half of the third quarter, the lineup of Livingston, Tony Allen, Paul George, Yi Jianlian, and Gasol came on the field to play offensive and defensive positions.
Sun Ce and Klay Thompson performed so well, Paul George also became angry.
Facing the Pelicans' lineup of Rivers Jr., Eric Gordon, Morrow, Ryan Anderson, and Lopez Jr., Paul George swept away the decline of 1-for-4 shooting in the second quarter and entered the third quarter. He scored 6 points in a row before the official timeout of the quarter, helping the Grizzlies expand their lead to 10 points, leading 69 to 59!
After the official timeout, the Grizzlies re-entered the starting lineup, with three young talents on the outside paired with the inside combination of Randolph and Larry Sanders.
For the Pelicans, Anthony Davis had been replaced before the official timeout, but he alone, without Irving, could not restore the decline.
Anthony Davis is still too young, so Irving can only grit his teeth and start going it alone!
Irving is indeed great. He scored 8 points in the second half of the third quarter, raising his personal score to 21 points, plus 4 rebounds and 9 assists, which exceeded his season average.
However, Sun Ce came up in the second half of the third quarter and continued his fiery touch. He used all the skills he had learned in the summer. He scored under the basket, dribbled behind the back and shot in the mid-range, and changed directions with cross steps. Paul George's mid-range jumper off the pick-and-roll...
As Sun Ce once again blocked Anthony Davis, Eric Gordon missed a strong shot at the buzzer in the third quarter. The Grizzlies led the Pelicans by 15 points 85-70 after three quarters!
After three quarters, Sun Ce's personal blocks increased to 6, and the number of blocks Anthony Davis was increased to two. At the same time, Irving's 20+10 in the three quarters was destroyed. Anthony Davis was blocked. The ball was passed by Irving through a breakthrough.
At the end of the quarter, Anthony Davis, who had 14 points, 8 rebounds, 1 assist and 2 blocks in the three quarters, was replaced and rested. Kidd only left Irving to lead Morrow, Babbitt, Ryan Anderson, and Lopez. Rely on three-point deterrence to try to counterattack.
Kidd doesn't have to worry about Irving's fighting spirit, but Anthony Davis has been bullied so badly since he blocked Sun Ce!
It's not that Sun Ce is bullying alone, but that every insider on the Grizzlies team is keeping an eye on Anthony Davis and would rather give others a chance to score.
The Pelicans' offense was so good in the first quarter. In addition to their desperate efforts, it had a lot to do with Anthony Davis's "extraordinary performance" in attracting defense.
In the final quarter, Sun Ce and Irving started a scoring battle. If Irving scored, Sun Ce would score, no matter how many, just shoot.
Facing the Grizzlies, who have already gained momentum and successfully gained an advantage, even if Irving has three powerful shooters to open up the space, it will be difficult for him to compete with Sun Ce in terms of scoring, because their Pelicans lineup can almost be said to have no defense.
In the end, Sun Cehao scored 37 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 6 blocks and 1 steal, beating Irving's 33 points, 5 rebounds and 12 assists.
Relying on Sun Ce's 37 points, Klay Thompson 16 points, Gasol 18 points, Paul George 14 points, and the scoring of role players, the Grizzlies defeated the Pelicans 109-98 and avoided three games. Losing streak!
…
…
This game was a blast!
Since the beginning of the new season, this game can be said to be the most enjoyable game for Sun Ce, even more enjoyable than the first game against the Spurs.
Sometimes, a key player can come back to play, which is too important for a team.
It's not that Larry Sanders is better than Gasol. Even if Gasol is fat, he is still better than Larry Sanders. Gasol played for 26 minutes and scored 18 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. He is a first-class center and a positional offensive organizer.
But Larry Sanders' comeback is crucial for the Grizzlies. He staggered the playing time of the two bears, which brought a very good change to the team.
Although the overall defense was not good, except for the first half of the second quarter when the Pelicans only scored 6 points in half a quarter, the defense in the other three and a half quarters was not very good.
But it made the offense more flexible and the lineup more varied.
Tonight, all 13 players on the Grizzlies' active list appeared on the court, and there were so many offensive routines that the opponent could hardly adapt.
Of course, this is also related to the Pelicans' overall defense. They have not really made good use of the defense of the front court trio. After all, it is a newly rising team and an offensive team.
Sun Ce analyzed it after the game and felt that his side still needed more improvement to cope with the current situation.
But now we can still be happy. Sun Ce looked at the fragments of Irving's turnaround jump shot skill upgrade card he just got, and a B-level lottery card... So happy...
But after the game, Sun Ce saw a piece of news that scared him!
The No. 1 draft pick Michael Carter-Williams scored 23 points, 11 rebounds, 11 assists, 8 steals and 5 blocks against the Lakers. The Lakers were upset!
