One Thousand Five Hundred and Eighteen. A Heartless and Unreasonable Elementary School Student
If you really want to win, you can only rely on the stars to play!
But tonight, the Warriors did not play as well as the Grizzlies!
Sun Ce played very hard after the game started. The pressure of competing for MVP suddenly increased. He had to fight hard!
In addition, he and Klay Thompson were in good shape. Paul George got 3 assists in half a quarter, and passed a three-point assist to Sun Ce and Klay Thompson. Sun Ce also had a reverse run and cut into the baseline and made a layup behind Tabit. Paul George passed the ball to him.
As for the Warriors, the new style of play they tried today was a pit.
The tactical changes of the Warriors, in summary, are pick-and-roll on the outside, low-post single-shot distribution with David Lee as the axis under the basket, and Iguodala's two-pass style.
David Lee's skills are still good now, and he can still have the ability to average per game. Although he has no defense, he is very strong in scoring. He is good at facing the basket and backing the basket on the offensive end.
But David Lee is 30 years old, and his athletic ability has declined quite seriously! The most obvious manifestation is rebounding. David Lee averaged 11 rebounds per game last season, but this season has just started and he has already averaged 9 rebounds per game.
As a result, his passing is always a beat slower, not because of the slow passing speed, but because his ability to move to a better passing position has weakened.
The Grizzlies seized this point and forced David Lee to attack more personally.
The Grizzlies' current lineup of one fat and four fast players is very good, because the Warriors also have a center who is not very mobile.
On the defensive end, the Warriors can't do anything no matter how they adjust.
Sun Ce knows why the Warriors averaged 107 points per game in the first seven games of the new season and lost 105 points.
As a player, some things are really unpredictable, and athletic ability can collapse at any time.
Sun Ce remembered that in the original time and space, Steve Kerr was criticized at the beginning of the 14-15 season because David Lee, who had similar averages last year, was immediately abandoned after he became the head coach. A player with the highest salary in the team played as a substitute, but the coach didn't want to use him, and he didn't even guarantee the basic number of appearances when he played so well last season.
As a fan, sometimes you don't pay attention to so many details. Fans only pay attention to David Lee's averages in the 13-14 season. The coach changed and didn't use David Lee.
Now as a player, Sun Ce played against him and felt this problem very clearly.
Sun Ce estimated that the Warriors also learned about the problems with David Lee, but Mark Jackson didn't have the courage to make up his mind to abandon David Lee, because David Lee's contract expired in the 15-16 season. The 6-year contract worth more than 80 million was signed before the labor-management agreement shortened the contract period.
Sun Ce has been playing for so long, and he knows one thing very well, that is, some things really cannot be adjusted. For example, on their side, the combination of Randolph and Gasol is slow, so there is really no way, and they can only use the two separately.
If you can't make up your mind, you have to bear the consequences.
In the first quarter, the Grizzlies led the Warriors by 9 points!
This was in the second half of the first quarter. The combination of Larry Sanders and Randolph was replaced by the combination of Yi Jianlian and Gasol. The Warriors scored 12 points in the second half of the quarter, which prevented the Grizzlies from further widening the gap.
After playing with an advantage, the Grizzlies sent out a defensive lineup in the second quarter, with Beverley, Tony Allen, Paul George, Prince, and Gasol.
This lineup wants to maintain the advantage, and the method is not to score, but to defend to death and consume the opponent!
On the Warriors side, Curry, Iguodala, Barnes, Draymond Green, and O'Neal went up to face the torture.
Sun Ce sat on the bench and watched Curry being chased by Beverley and scoring with difficulty. The play with Iguodala as the core of the tactics did not work, so he rested at ease.
At this time, Klay Thompson next to Sun Ce asked in confusion: "Noah, why did the Warriors pile up such a slow center last summer? I heard that the Celtics wanted to trade Garnett for David Lee, but the Warriors refused."
Klay's younger brother saw it, and Sun Ce was also wondering. The Warriors' inside line, Thabit, is enough for a center with average athletic ability. It is enough for him to protect the basket for more than 20 minutes in positional battles, just like Chandler in the 10-11 season.
If you keep maintaining this level, it will not be a good thing in this era.
After thinking for a while, Sun Ce replied: "The Celtics want draft picks, or several draft picks. There is a smart person in the Warriors management who knows how important the first-round draft pick is, and he will definitely not agree."
"Human essence? You mean Jerry West?"
"Yes, if they had a Garnett, the whole team could be revitalized, but the Celtics are asking too much..."
...
This game is not suspenseful, and the scoring depends purely on Curry, Harden, and David Lee's individual scoring, and they can hardly cooperate.
The strongest lineup on paper, the inside line is blocked, the outside line can't break through, and there is no way to connect, so they can only rely on singles and feel.
But the Kuha duo didn't play as hot as the opening game tonight.
On the contrary, Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, and Paul George's cooperation is flying!
Sun Ce made 4 of 9 three-pointers, Klay Thompson made 3 of 6 three-pointers, and Paul George and Beverley each made a three-pointer. After the game, the Grizzlies made 9 three-pointers and only sold 20 times, which was more than the Warriors' 27 three-pointers. The Warriors made 8 of 27 three-pointers tonight!
The Warriors' strongest arsenal did not play well, and the passing and cutting cooperation could not be played. They only relied on personal scoring and did not win the Grizzlies who were in high spirits after Larry Sanders returned.
In the end, Sun Ce scored 4 goals, including 3-pointers, 6 of 7 free throws, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and helped the Grizzlies to easily beat the Warriors and win three consecutive victories!
With this wave of home court advantage, the Grizzlies sat firmly and improved their record to 5 wins and 2 losses!
As for the Warriors, they started with 4 wins and 4 losses.
Curry made 7 of 21 shots tonight, scored 20 points, and left directly after the game.
Sun Ce watched Harden, who scored 24 points, 8 rebounds and 4 assists with 8 of 18 shots, run to hug him after the game, and felt that the elementary school brother was ruthless and unreasonable.
However, this game was won, but Sun Ce found something very strange.
The Warriors' defensive discipline and enthusiasm were good, that is, the coaching staff was very strict, but there was a problem with the deployment of troops.
Drummond Green's defense was getting better and better, reaching the first-class edge level of A-level, but the opposing head coach Mark Jackson did not use the combination of Drummond Green and David Lee, and insisted on letting the two best inside players play together.
Sun Ce was also puzzled. Mark Jackson would also try a lineup without a center, but some aspects were really rigid.
