Chapter 408 (2/2)
Link walked off the court, Stevens also began to engage the players to make the final deployment. Last season the playoffs played thunder, link must fight more than 45 minutes each game, in order to let the Grizzlies in the guarantee of attack under the circumstances of good defense.
But this year, link doesn't have to work so hard. Stevens directly left the task of defending Durant to igordala, and since igorda was in place, link didn't even have to face the opponent's number one scorer.
Link in the defensive end, will face ”Swiss Army Knife” sevrosa. Sevrosa is not a scorer, so link's defensive pressure will not be too great. In this way, the Grizzlies will gain more offensive firepower.
”Listen, I know, 48 hours ago, we just beat the defending champion! No, it's not defeat. Maybe the word slaughter is more appropriate! But don't think you are stable. Oklahoma thunder is the key to whether we can get out of the West! Today, everyone cheer me up! The thunder game, to some extent, is even more important than the heat game! So do your best to fight! I know you've been waiting for a long time today. Now, it's time to act! ”
Stevens was a big boost to the morale of the players. When the Grizzlies came on the court, everyone was very aggressive.
Of course, Oklahoma City fans won't let the Grizzlies get too arrogant. Countless fans held up signs in the stands, which read, ”we are the Western champions.”. Remind the Grizzlies that the winner of last season was thunder!
But even so, the Grizzlies are not stage fright. They know they were the losers last season, so they are so eager to win now!After the game began, the two teams immediately fell into a tangle. At the beginning, link proved the Grizzlies' determination to win with a slam dunk. Sevrosa this season has been difficult to limit link, from the confrontation to speed and height, link is not suffering.
But soon Durant hit in igordala's head, link dunk was successful, Durant was not willing to fall behind.
After the goal, Durant did not forget to point to link, ”don't try to rely on others to defend me, or you come in person!”
Durant and link's opening is almost the epitome of the game. After a few minutes, the two teams played back and forth, scores rose alternately, and no one could win.
After eight minutes in the first quarter, both teams changed players.
Scott Brooks took Kevin Martin, Reggie Jackson and Eric Meno, while Nick collison, who played for the team during the supersonic period, replaced Perkins.
On the grizzly side, Stevens is in regular rotation. Vasquez replaced Conley, Tony Allen replaced link, and Nick Young, who scored 25 points in the last game, replaced igordala.
On paper, the Grizzlies' second lineup seems stronger. A guard selected for defense and a guy who dares to score three points on James's head are enough to make the Grizzlies' rotation more luxurious.
Tony Allen is more than enough to defend Kevin Martin, and with Nick Young's firepower, Stevens believes the Grizzlies can use the rotation time to open the score!
If the strategy is successful, the second quarter game will be replaced by the main crazy patching knife. As long as you can keep the difference around 8 points, Stevens is confident that victory will be won!
As a result, Reggie Jackson was able to break through Vasquez's smash with the first goal after pausing back.
Then, Nick Young struck iron outside the three-point line, and the trajectory was out of line. It seems that, young Xia, this nerve knife has not been able to continue the feeling of the last game.
Stevens found that the momentum seemed to be a little bad, and the game plan seemed to have deviated. But before Stevens adjusted, thunder launched a devastating attack.
