1274. The back wave beats the front wave to death (Part 5)
Not only did they not take advantage, but because the opponent suddenly changed his style of playing, the Grizzlies were beaten 9-4, the Thunder made 5 attacks and 3 attempts, and another one caused a foul and two free throws!
Especially after Westbrook was replaced, Ellis returned to a timeout and immediately hit a three-pointer from the outside line against Sun Ce, which directly widened the gap to 5 points, which led to this small climax of the Thunder.
.
This time it was the Grizzlies' turn to call a timeout, 18 to 25, 7 points behind. According to the fierce firepower of the Thunder's two guns, if you don't score quickly, it's really possible that you won't score a goal in a round, and the opponent will make the difference.
Open to more than 10 minutes!
With more than two minutes left in the first quarter, the Thunder team is too powerful 9-4 this time and has already scored 25 points.
"The Turtle actually learned to be smart. In order to win, I don't even need data. It's a hell..."
Sun Ce complained that he saw Nash being replaced and knew that his role was going to be adjusted.
Coach Hollins was calm on the surface and actually changed into a combination of Nash, Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George and Yi Jianlian.
As the season plays, Lopez's position in running and hitting style was gradually replaced by Sun Ce. Since this season, as long as he gets the data king that he has never obtained before, Sun Ce can get the "Pick and Roll Expert" specifically for pick and roll.
Sun Ce consciously learns the skills of the executor's bonus and imitates the pick-and-roll executor's tips of Lopez and Yi Jianlian.
The Grizzlies are trying their best to train Sun Ce, but they don’t know how they can help Sun Ce besides helping him find a shooting coach.
In terms of Sun Ce's ability development, compared with the growth path of other stars, the Grizzlies' management and coaching staff cannot even find an accurate template.
Therefore, from management to teammates, the Grizzlies can only allow Sun Ce to grow wildly.
The simplest and most direct way is to create conditions for Sun Ce to develop in which direction.
For example, after the All-Star Weekend, Sun Ce basically locked in the rebounding king and began to want to use the skill "pick-roll expert" to directly develop towards the pick-and-roll executor. Coach Hollins is more in the running and bombing lineup.
If Sun Ce is sent to the positional battle at this stage, let Sun Ce help Nash pick-and-roll.
Sun Ce is indeed excellent in terms of physical conditions and quickly mastered the way of cutting in and pulling the shot after pick-and-roll.
In comparison, Larry Sanders is not as good as Sun Ce in this regard.
...
The Thunder also made a substitution. Daniel Alton, who had a good sense of cutting and offense, replaced Nick Collison with a more stable three-pointer Fisher.
Jackson, further strengthen the offense.
Brooks knew that the Grizzlies would definitely replace Nash with the runner-up. At present, Ellis and Durant's singles are so fierce that they naturally have to create better offensive conditions for the two.
The timeout came back and the Grizzlies were 7 points behind.
In the frontcourt ball, Nash received Paul George's serve and pushed it to the top arc. Ellis defended, but was blocked by Sun Ce!
Sun Ce's identity as a pick-and-roll executor is quite unfamiliar to the Thunder. Sun Ce rarely plays like this when facing them. Sun Ce immediately cuts from the middle after Nash goes around the pick-and-roll. Ellis, who switches defense, cannot block it in time, and Sun Ce easily goes to the free throw line.
Received Nash's pass in one step.
Yi Jianlian quickly pulled away from the left side of the three-second zone, but Alton let go of Yi Jianlian and closed at the basket.
Alton's exaggerated arm span, 120 kilograms of weight and quick movement ability put a lot of pressure on Sun Ce. Sun Ce received the ball and entered the inside and shook a shot...
Alton flew directly!
He jumped directly from the left side line on the three-second zone to the right side line! That is, he flew past Sun Ce!
Sun Ce originally planned to attract defense and pass it to Yi Jianlian's central shot, but was shocked by Alton's operation!
Sun Ce got up and jumped up and made a quick move, quickly set aside before Durant made up for it and scored two points.
Sun Ce, the Thunder's mid-season signing, signed Alton from the Greek League, who was abandoned by the Magic.
This player has basically no shots to study, so Sun Ce watched Alton University videos, and his athletic ability is much more powerful than Cousins.
However, no wonder this guy's physical fitness is almost tonnage, and his strength is enhanced. As a result, the Magic cut him off in just 16 games. This defensive consciousness simply vaguely with such good physical fitness.
Sun Ce, who was back to defense, regretted it when he thought of this. He had the opportunity to play 2+1 just now, but he missed the opportunity when he met Alton for the first time.
When the Thunder attacked, it was Ellis' turn to take the ball this time. Fisher advanced to the frontcourt and passed the ball to Ellis. Ellis looked for Alton to pick and roll.
There is no effect on the defensive end, but Alton is really good on the offensive end, blocking Klay Thompson tightly. Sun Ce made up for defense to the middle distance as soon as possible, and Yi Jianlian immediately made up for Ibaka. There is still a tacit understanding.
of.
However, Ellis's genuine low-level frame accelerated and changed direction masters. Sun Ce felt sweaty in his palms. Seeing Ellis slow down suddenly, he turned around and leaned over to accelerate. Without a big man at the basket to cooperate with the defense, Sun Ce followed directly
Ellis pounced on the direction he changed.
Ellis changed direction backwards, and then relied on his physical fitness to change direction again, just like Sun Ce triggering the second acceleration explosion after "accelerating direction while moving", but Sun Ce has the conditions.
The triggering skills, Ellis relies on his outstanding physical fitness to complete them.
However, for the first time, when Ellis was not cooperated by a big man at the basket, Sun Ce chose to block it and hit the wrong way!
The acceleration direction change was triggered at level 4 during the process. Sun Ce judged Ellis's first change direction route, blocked it, and received the bonus of burst acceleration!
Almost at the same time as Ellis, Sun Ce blocked Ellis tightly!
Even though Ellis has excellent physical fitness and is still at the golden age of 27, he has been exhausted twice. Unexpectedly, he has not escaped from Sun Ce's defense in this way!
Ellis had to force his attack, and was hated by Sun Ce who had grown a circle!
Yi Jianlian rushed forward and grabbed the ball blocked by Sun Ce, and immediately threw it to Nash. The Grizzlies counterattacked!
Klay Thompson scored a three-pointer from the receiving line!
The Thunder did not expect Ellis's best defender to attack under the basket, but was actually defended by Sun Ce while rushing! He specially replaced two physically qualified men's defenses.
Counterattack, even if Alton is not good at defending, but has good athletic ability, it is still OK to return to the defense and block people.
Chapter completed!
