: One thousand and fifty-seven: a revolution against the times


   Durant looked at the score on the big screen and smiled triumphantly.
   Facts have proved that the Warriors still have the ability to suppress the Grizzlies.
   And as long as the Grizzlies can be suppressed, there is a high probability of winning the championship!
   Durant certainly did not forget the Cleveland Cavaliers led by James, they are also powerful championship contenders.
   But to be honest, the Cavaliers are much less threatening than the Grizzlies.
   Durant now is no longer the kid who was stepped on by James. James is no longer the biggest obstacle to his career, but Link is!
   Leading 11 points after the first quarter, which is a huge benefit for the Warriors.
   Once in Oklahoma, it is not safe to lead by 11 points. Because Durant never knew what Westbrook would do in the next second.
   But in the Warriors, Durant doesn't worry about this at all. They have succeeded once last season, so they have the ability to succeed the second time!
   The electronic buzzer that represents the start of the second quarter sounded, and Durant couldn't wait to step into the court.
   He can't wait to continue to open the score, if he can beat the Grizzlies and Link with a big score, Durant will be even more refreshed!
   In the past few years, Link has suppressed him and beat Thunder again and again. Now, it's his turn to suppress Link!
   However, when Durant saw the five players sent by the Grizzlies, he was completely dumbfounded.
   Not only Durant, including his teammates and even the Grizzlies fans who came to watch the game, were all dumbfounded.
   What the Grizzlies are in this lineup now! ?
"Wait, the Grizzlies have changed! After the start of the second quarter, the Grizzlies actually sent one..." Hubby Brown immediately turned over the information in his hand and confirmed that he had remembered correctly. , And continued to add, "Sent a lineup that has never appeared at the same time this season!"
   "Furthermore, this lineup is very weird and anti-epoch!" Next to Hubie Brown, Jeff Van Gundy was also a little confused.
   Conley, Dinwiddie, Link, Jokic and Marc Gasol, the Grizzlies actually sent a double-high lineup!
   "This...what is it..." Steve Cole was also dumbfounded. The Twin Towers lineup might have been popular four or five years ago. At the beginning, Kobe brought his championship twin towers to raging the league.
   But now is the era of small ball, almost 30 teams in the league are trying to play small lineups, even the old-school teams like the Spurs are no exception.
   Not to mention there is a small lineup team like the Rockets that directly abandon the middle distance and play more extreme than the Warriors.
   Cole was completely stupid. He thought the Grizzlies would switch to Harrell for the fifth position, five-to-five.
   Unexpectedly, he actually made the lineup bigger!
   But after looking at the Warriors' own lineup, Cole couldn't help but feel a little worried.
   Obviously, the Warriors are currently at a very disadvantageous position in terms of height.
   The reason the Warriors dare to play a small lineup is because there are not many high-quality centers in the league. Those blue-collar rough guys can't have any advantage in the paint even if they face Green, who is two meters in the early but full of power.
   Just like when the Warriors played against the Cavaliers in the Finals last season, Mozgov didn't take advantage of it.
   But Jokic and Gasol are different, their techniques are very gorgeous. Moreover, they also have three-point range.
   The two centers of the Grizzlies are very different from the centers of other teams.
   Cole didn't know how the Grizzlies would play, but he was sure that Georgel was definitely not the one who put on such a lineup because of his brains.
   "The Grizzlies are bold, really bold! I don't know what they planned, but their twin tower lineup is undoubtedly a beautiful landscape now. I only hope that they will not be unfairly favored."
   While talking, the Grizzlies had already attacked.
   Because of the presence of two big centers, the Grizzlies’ offensive rhythm has become extremely slow.
   Link held the ball at the top of the arc outside the three-point line and Durant came to guard.
   And this means that Ian Clark, who is 1.91 meters tall and weighs less than 80 kilograms, must face the devastation of Jokic’s "giant pork belly"!
   "Fuck, what's so..." Clark was behind Jokic, and he couldn't see anything except Jokic's back!
   This made him feel deep despair.
   Green wanted to help defend, but Gasol's three-pointer really couldn't ignore it. The Spaniard is already the best three-pointer center in the active league, not one of them.
  The appearance of a small lineup has opened up the offensive space like never before. Many teams now do not need traditional centers, one of the main reasons is because traditional centers will squeeze space.
   But Gasol and Jokic have no such problem at all. They both have a three-pointer, and they can make a three-point threat like real perimeter players.
   Therefore, the two towers of the Grizzlies will not have the problem of congestion inside.
   Link dropped the ball to Jokic with a slight hang. Van Gundy covered his eyes in advance, which was cruel to Clark.
   Sure enough, Jokic was not polite with Clark. He used his fat to destroy Clark's body, and Clark was paralyzed in two or three strokes.
After    easily pushed into the basket, Jokic dunked with both hands directly through Clark.
   Clark can do nothing but look up.
   Clark looked at Cole pitifully. There was nothing he could do. The size was so different that he couldn't stand it!
   "Damn, it's tricky!" Cole also shook his head. This is the first time a warrior has encountered this situation.
   Two insiders, both can play low singles, and both can shoot three-pointers to open space. Before this time, no team had such a staffing.
   But this is not the end of the Warriors. If the Grizzlies think that hoarding the inside will defeat the Warriors, it would be naive!
   The biggest advantage of a small lineup is on the offensive end! All it takes is a misplacement opportunity and Jokic and Gasol will become the biggest defensive loopholes.
   Nowadays, finding misplaced offense is the norm. In addition to three-pointers, the Warriors' offensive strength is very powerful in finding misplaced opportunities.
  Why can a player like Antetokounmpo make a fortune in the league? Because he hits everyone in a dislocation.
   Moreover, Jokic and Gasol are not the kind of fast-moving insiders. Breaking through them with a small man is a breeze!
   So the Warriors did the same. Little play and big dislocation, this is the Warriors favorite thing.
   Durant held the ball from beyond the three-point line to call for a screen, Green immediately raised it, and Jokic followed along and guarded.
   Durant drooled as he watched the swaying fat on Jokic's belly.
   It's not that he wants to eat, it's that he wants to burst!
   Breaking through a fat boy like Jokic is definitely relaxed and happy.
   The cover is in place and Durant breaks through. Under normal conditions, Durant should now face Jokic's defense. If Jokic does not change, Durant has a chance.
   If two people come up to double-team, then Green who goes down is empty.
   No matter how Link and Jokic cooperate, it is a dead end.
   However, Durant had just bypassed the cover and found that Jokic and Link were in front of him!
   Jokic delayed Durant for the first time, but Link quickly kept up with the defense!
   When Link followed, Jokic immediately chased Green.
   Seeing this situation, Durant immediately passed the ball to Green. But when the basketball flew halfway, it was intercepted by Jokic!
   Jokic's steal rate has always been among the best among players in the same position. He is one of the few fantastic centers that average more steals per game than blocks per game.
   Of course, not every center can complete this kind of defense. In fact, this kind of defense is much harder than the direct pit that most centers like.
   Because this requires players to keep moving, switch back and forth between high and low positions, and select positions accurately. But these are exactly the advantages of Jokic!
   Since Jokic played five beautiful starting games this season ~EbookFREE.me~George has been studying how to maximize Jokic's strength.
   Looking at it now, he seems to have succeeded!
"Jokic completed the steal, and the Grizzlies cracked the Warriors' attempt to find misplaced singles! Everyone thinks that pick-and-roll prevention is the weakness of centers like Jokic, but the Grizzlies have made up for this weakness with team strength! "
   Hubie Brown just finished speaking, after finishing the steal, Jokic found Link with a long backcourt pass.
  Who said that with two big centers around, you can't fight back quickly?
   Link rushed into the restricted area, and Durant also caught up to prepare to block.
   But Link drew from the right to the left with a European step, avoiding Durant's pursuit.
   Durant made a big save, and Link easily put the ball in.
   After the start of the second quarter, the Grizzlies scored four points in a row, and the Warriors' five small lineups no longer seem to be so deterrent.
   After the goal, Link pointed to Jokic and thanked him for his pass.
  As he passed by Durant, Link did not forget to wink at him.
   "Now, let's see if our second round show can change the situation!"
   Before, Durant said that the Grizzlies wanted to rely on the second round of the show to rise is wishful thinking. And the defense and offense of the round just now is undoubtedly the Grizzlies' best response to this!
After    came back, Link opened his arms and Jokic was waiting behind him, and the Warriors were about to face another round of tight defense.
   Link and Nikola Jokic will formally write another story about their duo in the league!
