1360. The Spurs who ignored their strongest characteristics (Part 1)

It is the habit of the NBA coach to continue using the successful routine.

Moreover, most head coaches who follow the successful method often succeed; most head coaches who change their playing styles every few days are unsuccessful.

But similarly, the head coach who has been using a routine may always lose, such as Mike D'Anthony; there are many changes, good at accepting new things, and successful, such as Rick Carlisle, which can be clearly seen that Carlisle is

There are three ways to coach for the Pistons, Pacers, and Mavericks. Unfortunately, the first two times were unlucky, once were picked peaches and once were driven by their old club Auburn Mountain.

The experience of successful games in the second game made Popovich confidently continue to use tactics in the third game.

Theoretically, few teams can beat the Spurs in their second game against the Spurs. If Nash had not sorted out the Grizzlies' offense in the second half and played for 21 minutes in the second game.

The Grizzlies narrowed the gap to 4 points, without Sun Ze, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Randolph and Larry Sanders' lineup scored 11 points in a row and nearly turned around in the last three minutes.

Even the Heat, Lakers, and Thunder have no chance to find a way to defeat the Spurs in such a style of play.

The Spurs have very good tactics, good enough stars, good enough key players... all the necessary conditions for success.

In other words, when facing such an opponent, few teams dare to play different things, and they are worried that they will go astray if they accidentally.

But the Grizzlies are different... After the Grizzlies had a No. 3 player who was unwilling to be named, their style was always very biased and they did whatever they thought.

And they are the Grizzlies who can play many players!

Be prepared. When the Spurs played defense in the first quarter, the Grizzlies immediately changed into a defensive lineup, without hesitation at all. In the first quarter, the Spurs wanted to sacrifice part of the offense to defend them.

When they were on the team, the Grizzlies responded in time and carried out the defense to the end!

16 to 20 in the first quarter, the Grizzlies played the game with the least behind in the first quarter since they played against the Spurs this season. At the same time, in the first quarter of the Spurs, the Spurs scored low in the first quarter for the first time since they played against the Spurs seven times this season.

At 25 minutes.

After the first quarter, the Grizzlies continued to strengthen their defense in the second quarter, while the Spurs successfully limited the Grizzlies to only score 16 points in the first quarter, but the consumption was almost the same, which could make the Grizzlies.

The limit to this score is the result of Duncan, Danny Green, Guy, Kwame Brown, and Split and George Hill who came on the bench.

Duncan still had to rest for most of the quarter in the second quarter, which allowed the Grizzlies to score 21-20 in the second quarter. After the half, the Grizzlies were 3 points behind 37-40.

In this half game, the Grizzlies fought against the opponent in various lineups, mainly because the Spurs gave up their most advantageous offensive style at the beginning of the first quarter and wanted to play routines, but ended up getting themselves in.

In order to maintain targeted defense, Nash only played two minutes in the first half, while Sun Ce and Randolph played for only 11 minutes.

In the third quarter, the Grizzlies' style suddenly changed. After consuming the opponent's half, Sun Ce and Nash, who were protected in the first half, led Klay Thompson, Randolph, Larry Sanders and Yi Jianlian who were rotated.

The lineup with Jimmy Butler scored a single quarter of 34-23.

Popovich's characteristics of not being good at dealing with unfavorable situations have not changed. They are only good at playing games with advantages. They want to play routines and give up their biggest advantage. As a result, their own pitchers were consumed in the first half, and the third quarter was gray.

The Bears relaxed their defense, and the Spurs' rotation lineup only scored 23 points in the third quarter.

After the third quarter, the Grizzlies successfully overtook 8 points with 71-63.

In the last quarter, the Grizzlies used Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Yi Jianlian, and Gasol Jr. to play the whole quarter. The offense is OK, and the defense is 4-drag 1 is not bad, although there is no Bathir

Or Prince defended well, but the two men played too long in the first half. At this time, Yi Jianlian, who has better mobility and cutting ability, has a slightly better effect than using Randolph, mainly because he can follow Sun Ce.

Klay Thompson and Paul George took advantage of the opponent's declining touch and missed the shot to counterattack.

After a score of 26-24 in the last quarter, the Grizzlies successfully defeated the Spurs with 10 points, defended their first home court, and tied the big score 2-1!

Yi Jianlian only scored 4 points in the first half, but scored 16 points in the second half; Paul George played 20 minutes in the first half, and fought hard with Tony Allen. He only scored 6 points in the first half, but scored 16 points in the second half.

15 points; Klay Thompson played 15 minutes in the first and second half and scored 22 points;

Sun Ce is the opponent's key defense target, and he and his teammates have taken advantage of this. Sun Ce himself doesn't care so much about data when he can play an advantage. This is an impressive advantage in his early years. Almost tonight

They all scored 4 of 14 shots, scored 35 minutes, scored 13 points, 17 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 blocks, and 3 steals. The defense, snatching, snatching, and setters were all very good, matched with Nash's 6

With 8 assists, the two teamed up to help the team fight a 60-47 counterattack in the second half, and each led their teammates to a good match and successfully defeated the Spurs.

...

...

After this game, the Grizzlies continued to hold their post-match meeting.

In the meeting, the coaching staff and veteran Nash and Battier pointed out that there is a component of luck in winning this game, such as the fact that it has really consumed the opponent's outside shooting. The opponent played in the first eight playoffs this season, 6 of them were played in the first 8 playoffs this season

The number of three-pointers in a single game exceeded 10, and only 4 were scored tonight.

But luck is also part of the strength of the game. The Spurs were unable to regain their touch in the second half when they were consumed in the first half, because they were well defended by the Grizzlies.

Their Grizzlies' two major pitchers Klay Thompson and Paul George were also consumed in the first half, but they joined hands to score 6 three-pointers in the second half, plus Yi Jianlian's 1 three-pointer and Nash's 3-pointer.

The 8 three-pointers in the field proved that their adjustments were more in place.

One thing has also proved, that is, their Grizzlies' rhythm change ability is still the strongest!

They have no special tactics, they are just strong in changing rhythms, and this time they use this very well.

However, Sun Ce knew that although he won, the most critical game is coming soon!
Chapter completed!
