: Eight hundred and seventy-seven: play half of the game, get the full-time stats (1/5)

Steve Kerr never expected before the game that his Warriors would also encounter such a thing as being taken away by the opponent.
Under normal circumstances, his team suddenly exploded three-pointers, taking away the opponent in one wave.
But today, the Warriors were rubbed against the ground by the opponent.
5 minutes, 20 to 0, the Grizzlies' offensive came just as it said, and Cole didn't have any defense at all.
The Golden State Warriors thought they could overturn the pattern in the West, but Link hadn't agreed yet.
Of course, compared to the 20-0 offensive climax, fans are now obviously more interested in the scene of Link knocking Green.
During the pause, this picture is played cyclically from all angles.
Link's graceful movements, swift turns, and the elegant drawbar when facing Bogut at the end... This perfect series of movements seems to only appear in a basketball movie that is being shot.
And what about Green? Impatient blocking, falling to the ground in embarrassment, and unwillingness to hammer the floor after being shaken.
This scene showed Green's embarrassment vividly.
Before the game, he provoked the opponent fiercely, but was easily shaken by jokes during the game.
Green is now digging a hole for himself to jump.
On the big screen at the scene, the scene of Green just being shaken down was also being played back.
The fans on the scene enjoyed it, no matter how many times they watched it, they would scream at it.
Green on the bench was so angry that his lips were shaking.
Forget about being humiliated, the scene of being humiliated has to be replayed again and again in front of so many people...
People who are almost mentally weak are expected to collapse on the spot.
"Draymond, don't worry about the replay! We still have time, 19 points, we have not been sentenced to death yet!" Cole frowned, he has no intention to appease the players now.
Green nodded slightly and clenched his fists.
Now, if you want to get rid of this big humiliation, there is only one way-fight back!
Furiously and fiercely, Link Grizzlies can feel the pain of the counterattack!
As long as the Warriors can finally win the game, it won't help that Link knocks the opponent down again.
If it's a normal team, it will be difficult to stand up if it is beaten 20-0 by the Grizzlies.
But the Golden State Warriors are the team that just won 16 consecutive victories after all. If they are capable of this, it is absolutely impossible to let their winning streak last that long.
In NBA history, there are a total of 8 teams that have won at least 22 games in the first 25 games of the season, and these 8 teams eventually reached the finals without exception.
The Warriors' current record is 20 wins and 3 losses, which is very close to this record. In other words, they can be considered a semi-finals-level team.
Such a team will naturally not be frightened by the 19-point difference.
Link also knows that the Warriors are not ordinary opponents, or that sentence, any point difference is not worth mentioning in front of consecutive three-pointers.
As long as the Warriors make 4 consecutive three-pointers with a successful defense, they can narrow the point difference to only 5 points.
What the Warriors do best is to connect the three points into a series.
So next, the Grizzlies must focus on the defensive end.
Georgel then replaced Carter, who had been guarded firmly, and went to Tony Allen. Tobias Harris was replaced, and Link played the fourth position and Butler played the third position.
The Grizzlies have a big and four small lineups, as long as they can withstand this wave of counterattacks, the game will be stable!
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted. With a score difference of nearly 20 points, maybe in the first five minutes, the lagging team will try their best to chase points.
But if the difference is still not close after chasing for a long time, I am afraid that the morale of the lagging side will only get worse with the passage of time.
This time, Link murmured a few words in Whiteside's ear before he played.
A few minutes ago, Link "chanted" in Carter's ear, and Carter scored three consecutive three-pointers.
This time, no one knew what a thing Whiteside would do.
"The game restarted and the Grizzlies adjusted their lineup. Now they are playing the same as the Warriors, playing a major or four minor. However, the defensive strength is much stronger than just now."
Green couldn't help feeling a little nervous seeing Link on the top of the number four position.
This villain was already a little afraid of being beaten by Link.
After the Warriors came back, they attacked for the first time, and they started looking for opportunities outside the three-point line.
However, the Grizzlies had obviously expected this. Conley's pursuit of Curry is still tight. Now Conley doesn't have to worry about the organization or thinking about scoring, so he can devote 100% of his energy to defense.
Curry and Clay crossed positions, but Curry still didn't have much ease.
Because after the Grizzlies changed defense, it became Tony Allen to defend Curry!
In desperation, Curry had to return the ball to Clay. After all, Clay still had some height advantage against Conley.
Clay took off and shot almost against the defense.
Thompson is 16 cm higher than Conley, which is indeed not a small gap. But when Conley raised his arm and took off, the height difference between them was not as exaggerated as 16 cm.
In the end, Thompson's shooting range was a fraction of a point.
But if you don't make it, you don't make it. Shooting is not a target. You have to hit a heart to score.
The Grizzlies' defense made Cole feel desperate. In this situation, unless more three-point shooting points are invested, a faster pace is played. Otherwise, it is difficult to change.
But if you want to do that, you must play a super small lineup... Cole shook his head, he was not ready for it.
After the Grizzlies attacked, Whiteside began to play pick and roll with Link.
No matter how the style of the NBA game changes, the pick-and-roll is the most basic and most effective tactical coordination.
This unpretentious one-stop one, made Stockton become the assist king and made Malone a 36,000 points.
The power is obvious.
Although Link and Whiteside's pick-and-rolls could not reach the heights of Malone and Stockton, they were more than enough to deal with a bruised Bogut and a short Green.
Bogut didn't change defense. The Australian knew that if he changed defense and played against Link, it would be a dead end. He didn't want to be knocked down by Link.
Therefore, he asked Green to bypass the cover and continue to guard Link.
Seeing Green immediately bypassed the cover and continued to stick to Link, Bogut let out a sigh of relief, thinking he was safe.
At this moment, Whiteside quickly cut into the restricted area, very aggressive!
As soon as Bogut turned to chase back, Link threw the ball directly into the air.
"Damn it, too bully!" Bogut knew what Link and Whiteside wanted to do, but with his current physical condition, he could do nothing about it...
Whiteside leaped up after sprinting, easily received Link's pass, and then dunk the ball into the basket!
After an empty dunk, Bogut can't jump up.
If Green changes defense, it doesn't matter, because Green is also not an athletic player, not to mention his height and wingspan is not dominant.
In any case, this high point inside the Grizzlies, the Warriors are difficult to limit.
Indeed, it is impossible for a team to kill the game by simple and rude air.
But this is more than enough to open the score!
Sure enough, as long as Link muttered to a teammate before going on the field, there was definitely no good.
Instead of narrowing the points difference, the Warriors were also opened by the Grizzlies by two more points.
Behind by 21 points, even if the Warriors shoot three-pointers, they must score 7 consecutively and not allow the Grizzlies to get even one point in order to fill the hole.
"Before the conference finals, the Grizzlies undoubtedly taught the newly emerging Warriors a good lesson." Hubie Brown shook his head and continued to fight like this. Even the Warriors would hardly make a difference.
Before this game, the Warriors' devastating offensive can shock the entire league. It seems that the Grizzlies can't stop the Warriors.
But this game reminded Hubie Brown of what Link once said, "The champion is still the champion before he falls."
Take a look at the two championship pennants on the dome of the Federal Express Arena. Those two flags were not delivered by others.
After Whiteside dunked, he was even more excited on the defensive end.
Once the Warrior breaks through, he must face Whiteside's "fly swatter" arm.
On the outside, the defensive chain composed of Conley, Tony Allen, Butler and Link makes it difficult for the Warriors to make every move. Almost every shot must be taken defensively.
Both the inside and outside lines were blocked by the Grizzlies, and the Warriors' counterattack could only calm down amidst waves of iron strikes.
In the end, at the end of the second quarter, the Grizzlies had widened the point difference to 26 points!
Curry made 2 of 7 three-pointers in the half and Thompson made only 1 of 5 shots. The entire Warriors made less than 30% of their 3-pointers in the first half, even the league average!
The Grizzlies are the only team that has allowed the Warriors to drop below 30% of their three-pointers in the first half of the season.
At the end of the half-time game, Steve Kerr was found by reporters and did a midfield interview.
Kerr shook his head constantly facing the camera, "The Memphis Grizzlies' defense is one level ahead of all other teams in the league. Yes, such a tight defense is something we have never seen before. Of course, Link also brings us. A huge trouble. His comeback gave the Grizzlies a whole new look."
As a rookie coach ~EbookFREE.me~, Cole's previous achievements can be said to make him energetic.
But now, he frowned and frowned. When commenting on the Grizzlies game before, he did not have a clear understanding of the strength of the Grizzlies.
Today, as the Grizzlies opponent and the defending champion on the same field, Cole knew what is terribly powerful.
Speaking of Link, Hubby Brown couldn't help looking down at the data sheet.
After halftime, Link had 24 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists.
Once again, he hit a stat that others couldn't get the whole game in just half of the game.
According to this trend, the seventh consecutive triple-double is already a certainty.
Each of these historical records seemed to be of little value to Link.
It broke the record in two days, what's it like...
