: One thousand one hundred and ninety-three. Never low morale

Averaged 2.3 three-pointers per game, and 44.3 percent of the three-pointers from the ball. This is Leonard's three-pointers from the second round of seven games. He has almost no single three-pointers. , Singles are mid-range face frame or back basket.
But playing next to James, Leonard's catching three-pointer practiced very well! And found the feeling of this play in the tug of war with the Spurs!
The reason why Marion got to the starting position in the playoffs was because his threat of pulling away from the sideline after the pick and roll could help James deal with the opponent's inside defense. Marion averaged 8.6 points per game in the second round, except for the three of Gianlenco. Outside the group, the Lakers have the most stable point.
James can play well with the Spurs. Marion and Leonard played an important role. Of course, Kobe's threat is the foundation. On this basis, Marion and Leonard have increased James' operating space.
Nene’s athletic ability declines relatively quickly. To allow him to respond to the fast break for layups and slam dunks when eating pie, he can do it, but he wants him to go straight through the opponent’s basket as a fast break arrow as he did in previous years. It's a bit difficult for him.
When playing against the Grizzlies in the regular season this season, the cooperation between James and Nene was limited by the Grizzlies.
The old Bickerstaff can always think of a way. Marion didn't have much chance to play in the regular season. He averaged only 11 minutes per game and only played 45 games. But the role of Marion in the playoffs suddenly appeared to deal with the Spurs. It works well with the Grizzlies!
This is also due to chance. Ed Davis was injured in the first round of the Jazz. This was nothing. Some of the Lakers are power forwards, but Boozer now can only play center. Other air defense Duncan has a little restriction. After that, Marion was activated. Unexpectedly, the old Bickerstaff immediately used Marion's characteristics and has been using it until now.
Although the current Lakers are not good at team fast breaks, and fast breaks are limited to defensive counterattacks, they retreat quickly and are also good at suppressing the rhythm. The Grizzlies cannot rely on the speed advantage of the outside trio to counterattack.
The Grizzlies expected this, but they didn't expect that after the opponent arrived in the Western Conference finals, they would make better use of Marion's characteristics and make James more selective in organizing offenses.
But the Grizzlies like to play against the Lakers. Young teams like the Warriors like to play some flowers, especially speed, and can speed up, crazy fast pace, the Grizzlies can't stand it.
But the Lakers are different. Although the old Bikerstaff is unpredictable, when Kobe is on the court, the old Bikerstaff will not speed up. Kobe can rely on the rhythm changes and the time difference in the positional battle. Speed ​​creates shooting space and doesn't look slow.
But if you really want Kobe to play fast offense and defense... the opponent will have to be happy.
Paul George advanced to the frontcourt and steadily fell into the battle, first giving the ball to Aldridge.
At the beginning of the second round of the playoffs this season, Aldridge understood his shortcomings. Who made him never hit this far in the playoffs before? I don’t know that he was not developed enough in the low post and his shortcomings in the playoffs. .
Marion learned the defense of Gerald Wallace and Sullinger. Aldridge played very uncomfortably. He didn't make room when he turned over. He missed a jumper when he stood up!
James protects defensive rebounds, Aldridge's level of mid-range shooter knows that he will not make a shot, and quickly retreats. He has made up his mind to strengthen the low post this summer, although he will be 30 years old in July, 9 There is no progress in the low position in the new year, but this kind of thing is not afraid of late, I am afraid of not wanting, dare to change, want to change, dare to change, and it is a clear goal that the change will become better, as long as it is done, it will not be bad!
In the beginning, the Grizzlies fell into a passive position, and the Lakers used James and Marion's pick-and-roll cooperation in the positional battle to give Kobe or Leonard a long shot.
Because of Sun Ce, the Lakers have reduced their mid-range shots. Kobe and Leonard shot outside the three-point line. It was a bit extreme, but the Lakers who played so well in the last three games of the second round felt good. This bet, and it's right!
The Grizzlies’ offense that has fallen into position has been hindered. From playing the Warriors to the Lakers, many fans of the Grizzlies understand why Aldridge is such a good insider swingman. During the Blazers period In the playoffs, no one mentioned him. They mentioned Roy, Lillard, even Batum and Matthews. Aldridge is easily overlooked.
Although the shooting area is close to Nowitzki and Garnett, but compared with these two people, Aldridge is still slightly inferior to the high shots. When the playoffs are tough, they appear to be more prominent! The shooting rate plummeted and he was able to make a good offense in some games, but he had no veterans and excellent coaches in the Trail Blazers to instruct him to use his physical advantage, that is, his arms span and feel to develop low post skills. He focused on Thinking about strengthening the development of high-position space shooting power forwards written in the scout report during the draft.
Now he is really not suitable for him to fight hard. The Blazers have not gone far in those years. Aldridge, the inside core, has to bear a lot of responsibility, but the most fundamental thing is that he is not like Roy and Lillard at all. The Blazers coaching staff and management pay attention to it, and to blame, the two people are too good.
No, Aldridge was miserable by Sullinger and Gerald Wallace in the second round, just like Artest couldn’t make it to the rim in the 2009 playoffs and was not very good on the outside. Opportunities and rebounds are not the same, and now it is targeted by the Lakers.
The Grizzlies can only allow Sun Ce and Paul George to attack. Fortunately, Aldridge's fixed-point mid-range shot is threatening, and the off-the-ball cut can also contain the opponent's defense. He also found his own problems after the second round. There is no way to improve this problem for a while, so start with the style of play. After two singles are not good enough, they will be very active to help the team with off the ball.
The Lakers took the initiative in the start, and the Grizzlies were 6 points behind at the beginning, and then they could only rely on Sun Ce and Paul George to attack the game to keep the score tight.
The attack with Aldridge as the starting point failed again. Marion played for more than 4 minutes and went to rest. Wesley Johnson went on to play...
Fortunately, at 5 minutes and 11 seconds, the Grizzlies took the initiative to call a timeout and replaced Aldridge with Yi Jianlian. The space opened up. The main reason was that Yi Jianlian’s cut-in threat was much stronger than Aldridge, Sun Ce. It was activated. When the point difference was stretched to 9 points, he scored two three-pointers, and also led Klay Thompson to make a three-pointer. The two played a wave of 9 to 4 and re-opened the point difference. Reduced to less than 5 points, but randomly Kobe made a three-pointer before the end of the field. At 10 minutes and 03 seconds of the first quarter, the Grizzlies trailed by 18 to 25 by 7 points. The Grizzlies called a timeout again.
Entering the suspension stage, coach Hollins did not let Sun Ce continue to play this time, but was ready to change his routine. The combination of Livingston, Tony Allen, Paul George, Pierce, and Larry Sanders was replaced.
Now the Grizzlies are under great pressure. The home game started not smoothly. They only scored 9 points in the first 6 minutes. After the timeout, Yi Jianlian’s pick-and-roll cut into the threat, and Sun Ce got a three-pointer opportunity to clenched. The score, which caused some blow to the original high morale of the Grizzlies players. The Lakers have Kobe and Leonard, a cold-blooded cruel exudes a strong sense of leadership, a cold poker face with a calm and calm face, and the Lakers. Bian has not been too much influenced by Sun Ce's "King of the Western Decision" BUFF.
However, although the Grizzlies’ morale has been hit, they still have high morale. Sun Ce’s "King of the Western Conference" buff has played a role in strengthening this effect.
After four ups and fours, the Grizzlies regained their strength and faced the Lakers' singles lineup of Wayne Ellington, JR Smith, Leonard, James, and Motel Yunus. The Grizzlies Playing very hard here!
At this time, fighting spirit and confidence cannot be broken. With Sun Ce in UU Reading www.uukanshu.com, teammates will have confidence, and the gain effect of the "king of the Western Conference" has strengthened his teammates' fighting spirit and confidence.
In the last minute of the first quarter, the Grizzlies played a wave of 6-2! During this period of time, the Grizzlies had a desperate confrontation, hard singles and offensive rebounds, and the restricted Lakers only scored two points.
Tony Allen's defense of JR Smith, Pierce's defense of James, and Paul George's defense of James played a vital role!
After the first quarter, the Grizzlies trailed the Lakers 24 to 27 by 3 points and entered the break.
...
Narrowing the score difference is definitely a thing to be happy about. At this time, the gain effect of the "king of the western decision" strengthens this emotion!
On the Lakers' side, after the second round, they took a two-day break and continued to play in the Western Conference Finals, maintaining a very good state.
As for the Grizzlies, the rest time is much longer and they have more time to prepare, but they have to get into the best condition and take a beat slower than the opponent.
But in this situation, they still relied on their tenacious fighting spirit to hold the score tight and narrowed the point difference before the opponent started, preventing the opponent from starting, if it weren't for James's forceful breakthrough at the end of the first quarter. With a layup against Larry Sanders and Pierce and put the ball into the basket, their Grizzlies can reduce the point difference to 1 point!
This makes the Grizzlies full of confidence here. Although they are not as fast as the opponent, the coaching staff has a very good timing of the rotation. They sent a strong single defense lineup to deal with the opponent's singles lineup at the end of the first quarter. The coaching staff A very successful prediction was made, and the players also successfully narrowed the difference...
This means that their pre-match preparations are very effective!
They firmly believe that if they continue to fight like this, they will have a longer rest period and more adequate preparations, and they will definitely have an advantage in the first game!
