Five hundred and fiftieth chapters inexplicable attack
This is indeed a big problem. In fact, if you want to defend against it, the best way is to use Allen to defend closely, but it seems that Allen's old legs can't keep up with Tang Shuai's pace.
"Damn it, how did this guy suddenly become so fast?" Fitzdale said speechlessly.
Bickstaff, who was standing by, wanted to say that Shuai Tang was almost as fast as me last season, but he finally chose to remain silent.
When Tang Shuai saw that the Grizzlies did not assist in advance this time, he calmed down his center of gravity, seized the opportunity, and rushed in suddenly.
Allen rushed towards him. His hands were spread apart, and he was not going to give him a chance to rush in. He believed in his defensive ability.
"Defend him! You can do it, Tony!" Anderson cheered Aaron in the comment seat.
Tang Shuai changed directions in a row and did not shake Alan away. A real player, Allen's defense is definitely one of the top in the league. Tang Shuai, who is not at full strength, is really difficult to break through him.
However, Tang Shuai obviously not only has the ability to get rid of this. After seeing Huang Bukai, he suddenly slowed down. When Allen also slowed down, he accelerated suddenly.
After all, Aaron is old, and the gear shift of the classic car obviously cannot keep up with the sports car. After Tang Shuai's speed changes, he directly passed him like a wooden stake.
The fans at the scene were filled with surprise again, and Anderson was completely stunned. He did not expect that Tony Allen, who was praised by him, would suddenly become so vulnerable in front of Tang Shuai in the third quarter.
After Tang Shuai passed Allen, before Gasol Jr. made up for defense, he jumped up at a step inside the free throw line, pulled the ball over his head with his right hand, glided for a distance, and smashed the ball hard into the basket.
A spotlight flashed at the scene.
"Bang!"
Tang Shuai smashed the basket with force and shook.
The Lakers' bench was excited, and Nick Young suddenly lay down to the ground, and Clarkson directly took him to breathe artificially. This pair of old Lakers last season directly imitated the actions Stephenson and Smith had done with the Clippers.
After Tang Shuai's deducted this ball, the Lakers had already scored the gap to 12 points.
After returning from the timeout, the Lakers played very imposingly. If they didn't look at the score, they would think they were more than ten or twenty points ahead.
"This kind of player was not without in my time. Grant (referring to Hill) and Anthony (referring to Hardaway), they are all the guys who can break through, shoot and pass. For this guy, the best way is to let people hang around him tightly. Tony has excellent defensive ability, but when he gets older, his physical strength is consumed very quickly. David must hurry up and make adjustments, otherwise the game will likely be reversed." Weber analyzed professionally at this time. As a former star player, his observation ability is obviously more thorough than a commentator like Anderson.
Anderson's face was written with two embarrassment at this time. He praised Tony Allen for a show, but he didn't expect that even his commentator would say so directly in the end.
Fitzdale realized this, and turned around and called out Jordan Adams sitting behind him.
Adams was the first-round pick of the Grizzlies in 2014. He showed good talent last season, but in fact he was not a player known for his defense. Fitzdale was a little helpless when he replaced him at this time. He couldn't change Allen to rest and then replace Carter, who was older in the grade, right?
The Grizzlies made substitution adjustments, Adams and Wang Zhelin took the field to replace Allen and Randolph, and the Lakers also made substitution adjustments, replacing Gasol with Azeri and giving him some rest time.
After Randolph went down, Gasol Jr. took the ball directly at the free throw line to start the attack.
Although his offensive ability is far less stable than that of Gasol, who is the older brother, Gasol has a lot of offensive skills. Facing Azeri's defense, he turned continuously and created a shooting space for himself, throwing the ball to the basket with a very long throw.
"Bang!"
Gasol Jr.'s throwing shot came out and the rebound was caught by Noel.
Gasol Jr. has rich offensive skills, but compared to his skills, his shooting percentage is seriously low in the inside, which has a lot to do with his like to play when he plays with force.
After Noel grabbed the rebound, he waved his hand to Tang Shuai. Tang Shuai ran towards the frontcourt. Without Allen, he felt relaxed.
Adams' pace is much better than Allen, but his defensive oppression is not the same level at all.
Tang Shuai almost arrived at the frontcourt like a bulldozer, then turned around beautifully, and scored 2 points with a light low hand. While making a layup, he also used his experience to cause Adams's foul.
The fans at the scene were in an uproar. Tang Shuai was completely different after returning from the second half!
Tang Shuai took a deep breath and walked to the free throw line. He had a cold and his physical energy was consumed much faster than usual. If it weren't for Procopio's training method, he would probably have been unable to hold on now.
He hit a free throw steadily, and under his leadership, the Lakers chased the score to within double digits.
After the Grizzlies failed to make the final attack, they entered the final quarter with a 9-point lead.
"We are still ahead of the score. The Lakers have been playing Don, and he consumes a lot of energy." Fitzdale kept emphasizing the players during the intercourse.
"Jordan, don't be afraid of fouls. Be more aggressive in the fight. Give him enough defensive pressure and consume his physical strength." He said, turning his head to remind Adam Steadily.
Adams nodded vigorously. He watched Tony Allen constantly being overwhelmed by the court, and he was so anxious that he really realized what kind of player he needed to defend.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, both sides were playing on the bench. The Grizzlies spent all their money on the main players during the offseason. The substitutes were not strong. Jay Michael Green and Carter trained last season became one of the few scoring points on the team. However, Wang Zhelin, facing Azeri's defense, he moved away the layup with his beautiful footsteps and became one of the few highlights on the Grizzlies' offensive end.
On the Lakers, Stephenson continued his outstanding form since the season. Under his leadership, the Lakers played with a decisive and accurate manner. Even Nick Young, who had been out of the game for a long time, hit an open three-pointer after playing.
Both sides played for more than three minutes, and the Clippers had already brought the score to 5 points.
Seeing that the momentum was wrong, Fitzdale quickly replaced Gasol and Conley in advance.
Walton was a big hit because the main player played for a long time in the third quarter, so he was planning to give them one or two more minutes to rest.
Stephenson made a beautiful breakthrough and squeezed Adams away and put the ball into the basket, chasing the score to 3 points.
After scoring, he seemed extremely excited, shouting and screaming at the audience, which immediately caused a lot of boos for the fans.
You should know that Stephenson played for the Grizzlies in the second half of last season.
At this time, Walton looked up at the score on the court, then walked back to the bench and sat down. He stood on the sidelines from the beginning of the second half, and his waist couldn't stand it anymore.
He just wanted to take a break, but what he never expected was that the Grizzlies played a strong offensive wave just in the minute he sat down.
Conley first hit a long-range two-point jump shot, then stole Stephenson's fast break layup. After Nick Young's open jump shot missed, he hit a key three-pointer from outside the three-point line.
In just one minute, Conley made all three shots by himself, and he scored a 7-0 attack wave, and the scores of both sides instantly returned to 10 points.
After signing the largest contract in history, Conley was under tremendous pressure, and this highlight moment was enough for him to remove this pressure.
Walton looked at the stool under him with great depression, then stood up and called for a pause.
At this time, there were more than 6 minutes left before the game. After the pause, both sides replaced most of the main players on the court.
"color!"
Once the timeout came back, the fans at the scene shouted loudly to cheer for the home team under the guidance of DJ.
Shuai Tang took the ball to the frontcourt, and Adams followed and defended.
It was completely different from before. After Adams came up, he kept hitting him with his body, and his movements were very large and full of aggressiveness.
Tang Shuai frowned, leaned against Adams, then raised the ball high above his head, and then turned to look at the referee.
The referee bit the whistle at his mouth, but there was no intention of calling a foul. It seemed that the range of the action was very dangerous in the referee's eyes, but it was not yet at the point where he could make a penalty.
After carrying his back, Adams's small movements had a much smaller impact on him. He calmed down his center of gravity and started crushing with his strength.
He didn't know why Adams suddenly had so many small moves. Perhaps it had something to do with Fitzdale, but in the face of absolute power advantage, this would not work.
Amid the restless voices of the fans at the scene, Tang Shuai was so openly pressing Adams into step by step. When he was about to reach the free throw line and noticed that Parsons came to assist in defense, he followed a backward jump shot after turning around.
Adams' reaction was obviously slower. By the time he took off, Tang Shuai had already finished shooting.
"Swish!"
The basketball went over Adams' head and fell straight into the net bag.
Fitzdale reached out and scratched his head twice, looked back at Allen behind him, and gritted his teeth but still didn't replace him.
The Grizzlies play Randolph.
Randolf pressed Gasol in, and when he was approaching the basket, he turned around and shot.
This ball technique is done beautifully, but Gasol is tall and his arms are long. Although his strength is not superior, the interference effect is perfect.
The basketball rubbed the basket and crossed the bridge, but was caught by Noel on the other side.
The Lakers attacked the frontcourt, and Tang Shuai used a change of direction to make Adams's footsteps messy, and then another jump shot hit.
The Grizzlies played against Gasol Jr. Gasol Jr. shaking continuously did not deceive Noel. In the end, he was slapped by Noel.
The Lakers attacked the frontcourt again, and Tang Shuai made a false move to break through, forcing Adams to take two steps in a row, and then he threw a three-pointer out.
"Swish!"
Three-pointers accurately land the pocket.
Chapter completed!
