One Thousand Six Hundred and Thirty-Seven. Violence Chapter 3!

After the start of the third quarter, the Warriors attacked first, and Iguodala led 3-2. The coffin lid was nailed tonight. The second three-pointer of the game missed. Looking back, the Warriors were preparing to defend the Grizzlies' attack around the Splash Brothers' outside shooting. When the Grizzlies counterattacked, the Warriors kept paying attention to Klay Thompson, because it was Sun Ce who rushed with the ball.

Generally speaking, like in the previous few games, Sun Ce grabbed the defensive rebound and counterattacked. The Warriors could only block Sun Ce with a group of people, because Sun Ce grabbed the rebound and counterattacked too quickly, faster than when they played against each other in the regular season. The starting speed reached the top level. Corey Brewer, who is recognized by the league as the fastest counterattack starter, is also as fast as Sun Ce.

However, although Sun Ce still started fast this time, Harrison Barnes and Iguodala were able to keep up, so the Warriors had the opportunity to block Amir Johnson's follow-up and Klay Thompson's three-pointer, deliberately leaving Prince and Livingston with shooting opportunities, hoping that Sun Ce would pass the ball to these two teammates who were not so good at scoring.

But Sun Ce directly dunked two shots against Iguodala and Harrison Barnes in front of him!

In this attack where Iguodala had a three-pointer opportunity, the Warriors felt something was wrong, but they couldn't tell.

When it was the Warriors' turn to attack again, they noticed that on the Grizzlies side, Sun Ce was guarding Draymond Green at close range, Amir Johnson went to the basket to defend O'Neal, Livingston defended Iguodala, Klay Thompson followed Harrison Barnes, and Prince defended Harden...

Before seeing that Draymond Green was not as tall as Sun Ce, there was no big sense of disobedience when the two stood together, but now the Warriors realized that Sun Ce went to defend the inside!

Harden received the pass from Iguodala and played against Prince. Seeing this veteran, Harden had a headache. This veteran could not defend against counterattacks, but he was too unfriendly to technical players in positional warfare. Although he was not good at accelerating and sprinting, he was enough to move sideways, which was just right for positional warfare. Although his arm span was not as long as Sun Ce, it was only two centimeters shorter. The key was that his single defense ability was much stronger than Sun Ce! In terms of defensive skills, in terms of single defense, no one on the Grizzlies' outside line could match Prince except Tony Allen.

The Grizzlies just tried it, but they didn't expect the effect to be good. Harden couldn't find a three-point opportunity from the outside line, so he could only break through.

There was no way for Harden to break through Prince. The weight difference was quite large. He was ten centimeters taller than Harden, so he couldn't stop him. But why didn't Harden want to break through?

Prince couldn't hold it, but he could stick to Harden and let Harden go off the line. Harden didn't go into the basket even when he broke through to a close distance, and was still covered by Sun Ce!

Sun Ce's single defense against Harden is not good enough, but his help defense is definitely the best in the league!

Being sandwiched by a pair of gibbons with almost the same size,

Harden had no chance to pass the ball, and he forced a fadeaway jump shot... but was slapped down by Sun Ce!

Fortunately, Draymond Green got around Sun Ce in time, grabbed the ball behind Harden, retreated to the left corner, and shot a three-pointer... It went in!

Sun Ce turned around and picked up the ball that fell from the basket. Although Sun Ce hated Draymond Green, he would not deny his strength. He did play an important role in the Warriors' three championships in the original time and space.

As long as he has Curry and Thompson, the fake Splash Brothers, around him, Draymond Green is still very powerful.

Now Draymond Green has begun to show his ability. In addition to his strong switching ability, he also began to show his awareness of assisting and passing the ball when he occasionally gets a chance. There is also this three-pointer that sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. After all, he is the one who can make 8 three-pointers in a single game in the playoffs.

However, just like the Warriors had to clear some players from the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies could only clear Drummond Green's mid-range and long-range shots to defend the Warriors.

Defensive tactics are the same as gambling.

However, this ball is not a big problem. The Grizzlies are still leading 63-60. The most important thing is to play the tactics they want next!

Just a try, Sun Ce obviously felt that it was very different from the last time when the matching degree was 20% lower. The athletic ability was better maintained. If the enhanced jumping and explosive power were counted, the athletic ability alone was similar to that without the Shark Card. If the strength and confrontation were counted, the ups and downs of the confrontation were bounced, and the physical fitness could be said to have leaped!

After Sun Ce passed the ball to Livingston, he went directly to the front court and fell to the low post. Iguodala was still defending him. Sun Ce was originally heavier, and Iguodala felt normal that he could not push Sun Ce, but Iguodala felt that something was going to happen!

Sure enough, Iguodala received the ball and saw Sun Ce approaching. He tried his best to block it, but he didn't block it! Sun Ce pushed him into the three-second zone in one step!

Before O'Neal Jr. could help him, Sun Ce turned and hooked the ball half a step inside the right side of the three-second zone... Iguodala tried very hard to limit Sun Ce's turn, but failed. He was pushed away like a little girl in the bridal chamber, and Sun Ce easily made a small hook shot!

For Iguodala, this was a tragic defense, but for Sun Ce, in addition to scoring two points, this hook shot gave him a very different feeling! He temporarily had the muscle memory and playing style "memory" of O'Neal's low-post small hook shot, and it was obviously different from the last time he used the O'Neal card. It was not that O'Neal's hook shot in the 99-00 season was much different from that in the 00-01 season, but that his own hook shot was stronger. The "small sky hook" proficiency was level 4, compared to the original level 1, and the experience of O'Neal's small hook shot was very different!

Sun Ce scored 4 points in a row, and the Grizzlies took a 5-point lead. The Warriors were not in a hurry for the time being, and came back to play a positional war offense. Harrison Barnes received Iguodala's pass and scored two points in the baseline mid-range shot.

It was the Grizzlies' turn to attack again, and Sun Ce continued to play singles in the low post. The Warriors' defensive changes came faster than Sun Ce imagined, and were very decisive. Sun Ce fell to the low post, and Harrison Barnes directly doubled up!

Sun Ce passed the ball to Livingston in the mid-range. Harden did not go to make up for the defense, but followed Klay Thompson closely. When Prince picked up, Draymond Green and Harden quickly switched defense. Livingston received the ball without hesitation. Seeing that there was no chance to pass the ball, he jumped and shot from the left side of the free throw line... and also made it!

This is very critical!

The triangle connection of Sun Ce, Livingston and Klay Thompson is the most important!

Livingston made a mid-range shot as soon as he came up, which gave the Grizzlies a shot in the arm. When Paul George and Yi Jianlian need to rest, it is very important to have a stable mid-range shooting point!

In the first five games, Livingston only got 15 minutes of playing time in total, because the Grizzlies' outside three-man team played for a long time, and they had to shoot and defend with Beverly, but Livingston didn't have three. They had to have stronger defense with Tony Allen, and Livingston's defense was not very good.

So when he replaced Livingston, Coach Hollins had some concerns, but Livingston had a huge heart! He made a quick judgment after receiving the ball, and his touch was good, so he made the shot.

The Grizzlies' offensive style changed suddenly, which made the Warriors very uncomfortable.

There was one point they couldn't solve, that is, they couldn't directly use O'Neal to double-team, because Sun Ce had a height advantage over Iguodala and could clearly see the situation behind him. Although Amir Johnson, sent by the Grizzlies, was not well-known among the fans, he was a very respectable player among the players. He was a passionate player with a strong fighting spirit, and he was very good at pick-and-roll cutting and attacking the basket.

Originally, the Warriors thought that the Grizzlies would focus on Sun Ce and Amir Johnson's pick-and-roll offense, after all, it was a lineup of one big and four small.

But Sun Ce went to the low post, Iguodala couldn't defend him, and Drummond Green couldn't defend him. Sun Ce wanted to pull out to shoot, but Drummond Green couldn't defend him, and they didn't know that Sun Ce would definitely not pull out to shoot.

But in this case, the Grizzlies did not try their best to pass the ball to Klay Thompson, but Livingston shot from mid-range...

Fortunately, the Warriors are currently in a stable mentality. Before Curry rested and played, Harden scored and organized the offense desperately, and Iguodala was responsible for the transfer and second pass. Their offense could still keep up, and both sides maintained a good level of offense.

However, as the game went on, the Warriors found something wrong. The Grizzlies did not stop playing Klay Thompson, but used two axes to find opportunities for Klay Thompson, the best opportunities!

When Livingston made a 2-of-3 mid-range shot, the Warriors could not always watch him take the pass from Sun Ce and shoot. No matter who was used to defend Livingston's mid-range shot, the person who was defending the original target would be pulled out to screen for Klay Thompson!

Sun Ce could observe the top arc area in the low position, and Livingston paid attention to the sidelines on both sides. As long as Klay Thompson had a chance, he would pass the ball as soon as possible.

And Klay Thompson seized the opportunity and continued his hot hand!

After 5 minutes in the third quarter, Klay Thompson made 3 three-pointers and scored two, raising his score to 24 points!

During this period, Sun Ce scored 6 points, Livingston scored 4 points, and Amir Johnson rushed to the basket to receive the ball and was fouled when the opponent's attention was all on the Grizzlies' triangle combination. Surprisingly, the Grizzlies scored 18 points in just 5 minutes! Played a wave of 18 to 13!

Seeing that the Grizzlies widened the gap to 9 points with a score of 79 to 70, the Warriors seized the time to enter the official timeout and called a timeout!

After watching half a quarter, Mark Jackson realized that the Grizzlies actually played a triangle offense!

Mark Jackson looked at the three core players of the opponent in the first half of the quarter, the low-post axis, the mid-range shooting + passing, and the stable three-point shooter on the outside... And it was not the triangle offense of the Bulls, not even the triangle offense of the Kobe-Garrison combination, but the triangle offense of the OK period!

The bankrupt version of Kobe - Livingston.

The poor version of O'Neal? Mark Jackson simply couldn't connect the two together.

Then there is the deluxe version of Fisher - Klay Thompson!

This tactic has no so-called effect of improving teamwork, absolutely not. To play this tactic, it depends purely on personal ability. The effect of this tactic is to maximize the personal ability of the triangle combination of the triangle offense.

This tactic is considered a very strange tactic by many head coaches and even many team managements. Most teams are unwilling to play it because it relies too much on personal ability, but the Grizzlies actually played it!

Use Klay Thompson's containment to help Sun Ce create low-post singles opportunities, use Sun Ce's low-post singles to create opportunities for Livingston, and then use the threats created by Sun Ce and Livingston to create opportunities for Klay Thompson in turn.

All three points rely on personal ability to score!

Mark Jackson can be regarded as a tactical master, but it took him a long time to see that this was a triangle offense, because he could not imagine that the Grizzlies suddenly played a triangle offense.

The main thing is Sun Ce's point. Iguodala is so miserable. Sun Ce received the ball, whether it was passing or shooting, anyway, he bumped first. Sometimes there was no need to bump at all. I saw Harden or Harrison Barnes, Draymond Green double-teaming up, and Sun Ce had to bump first and then pass the ball... Iguodala felt that this guy bumped him just to bump him!

One dunk, one turn hook, one O'Neal went to Livingston to defend the mid-range and passed back to Sun Ce, and Sun Ce directly bumped Iguodala and smashed into the basket with one hand.

In addition to these factors, the reason why the Warriors were unable to react to the opponent's climax was that the triangle offense was implemented in detail, which was too ordinary!

What the Warriors felt was Sun Ce's counterattack, two low-post positional battles, Livingston's two open mid-range shots, and Klay Thompson's two catch-and-shoot three-pointers.

That's it!

There was no fancy tactical coordination, just a few simple shots, and Prince's shots were missed, and Amir Johnson's layup was missed.

However, most of the shots of the three main scorers were grasped!

This is a tactic based on Sun Ce's temporary unstoppable power on the outside, Klay Thompson's hot hand tonight, and Livingston's big heart and mid-range shots that he can contribute to!

…

After the timeout, the Warriors didn’t expect the score difference to be so widened. During the timeout, they were surprised by the Grizzlies’ triangle offense, but after calming down, they found that the defense of this lineup was also very strong. Sun Ce’s assist defense had a block, and the vertical jump block when he switched to defend O’Neal was amazing! In addition, Harden scored mostly from mid-range and long distances in these 5 minutes, and only once he broke into the basket and caused a foul and made two free throws.

They suddenly found that they couldn’t play under the basket!

Otherwise, with the strength of the two teams’ previous lineups, theoretically, even if the Grizzlies broke out suddenly, the Grizzlies’ inside combination without a real big man could not defend their inside offense.

But the Grizzlies defended it! Previously, because the opponent lost Gasol, Larry Sanders and Randolph’s inside combination, Sun Ce’s assist defense role declined, and the Warriors’ invincible cutting style was not played because of Sun Ce’s rim protection!

The manifestation of rim protection ability is the least conspicuous performance.

The Grizzlies have been at a disadvantage on defense in this series because they don't have a top-notch rim-protecting center like the Warriors' Thabeet!

The Warriors replaced Curry with the strongest trio on the perimeter, and Thabeet also played, partnering with Draymond Green in the interior.

On the Grizzlies side, Coach Hollins was always worried about rim protection when he replaced Sun Ce and Amir Johnson in the interior at the beginning of the second half, so he paid more attention to this than the opponent. He was the first person to discover Sun Ce's strength in rim protection, what a surprise!

Coach Hollins decisively replaced Sun Ce, Beverley, Klay Thompson, Paul George, and Yi Jianlian.

The lineup just now was a test run while the Warriors sent out a rotation lineup. Now, Coach Hollins used Sun Ce's low-post singles and rim protection, Paul George's mid-range shots, Yi Jianlian and Beverley's ability to open up space, and Yi Jianlian's stronger cutting ability than Amir Johnson to create better catch-and-shoot opportunities for Klay Thompson, who has already made 7 three-pointers tonight.

In turn, it also creates better scoring opportunities for Sun Ce and Paul George!

After the official timeout, the Grizzlies' offense exploded!

There are no fancy routines. If Sun Ce is not double-teamed, Sun Ce will directly break through Iguodala's hook shot. If he is double-teamed, Sun Ce will pass to Paul George or Beverley. Both of them have the ability to pass the ball. Beverley no longer has the ability to organize, but he is a point guard after all, and his passing is very stable.

It seems that Sun Ce is the most aggressive, but the most critical part of this tactic is the main shooter, which is Klay Thompson. If he can't make this shot, Sun Ce can only shoot one ball at a time.

But tonight, Klay Thompson's three-pointer exploded!

In the last 7 minutes of the third quarter, Klay Thompson made 3 of 4 three-pointers!

His overly accurate three-pointer made the Warriors' defense exhausted. The Warriors even used Thabit to push Sun Ce after Sun Ce went to the basket after a timeout. Sun Ce didn't really pull out to shoot, but first controlled the ball and retreated to the mid-range before rushing in and dunking through Thabit to make a 2+1. Sun Ce was not as good as the 125-kilogram Thabit in static confrontation, but when he rushed, Thabit couldn't be pulled down!

However, the key to the Grizzlies' victory was that Sun Ce gave Thabit a big cap and interfered with the Warriors' cutting offense several times.

After discovering Sun Ce's explosion in protecting the frame, Coach Hollins firmly blocked Curry's three-pointer from the outside, preferring to let the opponent cut in, and then, Sun Ce did it!

This quarter, Coach Hollins missed Gasol. With a center who can protect the rim well, their suppression of the Warriors' offense was too obvious! It was completely different from the previous games where the inside line was the back garden of a family.

On the offensive end, Klay Thompson made 10 of 15 three-pointers in three quarters. On the defensive end, Sun Ce had 3 blocks and 7 defensive rebounds in the third quarter. Moreover, 5 of Klay Thompson's 10 three-pointers were made in the third quarter. In addition to two long two-pointers and a three-pointer, he was fouled and made 3 of 3 free throws. Klay Thompson scored 22 points in a single quarter!

With Klay Thompson's 22 points in a single quarter, the Grizzlies' offense was opened up, and they scored 40 points in a single quarter. With Sun Ce's rim protection, the Grizzlies scored 40 to 26!
