The Legend of the Hungry Wolf in Basketball

Chapter 342 [The Era of Young People]

In the fourth quarter, the Clippers sent a defensive lineup, Barnes, Smith, Tony Allen, McGee, Kidd.The Grizzlies simply gave up the game after playing for 4 minutes, and replaced all the main players to rest, leaving Asilao, Walton and others on the court to rely on time.Wharton played 13 minutes and only scored 2 points.Back in Los Angeles this time, he received neither applause nor boos, and he had no sense of presence in the hearts of fans.

The Clippers won by 115 points 92 to 23.

At the end of the game, Yi Jianlian also got a chance to play. He scored 3 points and 2 rebounds on 5 of 2 shots. He performed well.

In his first playoff appearance, Yi Jianlian proved to be useful, even if he didn't score much.As long as he is there, the game is not considered garbage time, and Chinese fans are still willing to watch it.Yi Jianlian got some playing time in the last round of the series, and the coaching staff expressed satisfaction with his performance.It's just that after the game, some news like "five points scored by space explosives, two rebounds angrily" will be published, which is disgusting... Maybe these people who write the news are "high-level hackers" who deliberately write disgusting things to make people disgusted. For what purpose, only they themselves know.

Yi Jianlian has found a position in the Clippers. After this season, the Clippers are going to give him a contract, which will not be very high, and he should stay.After the end of the season, he is a restricted free agent and can test the waters of the free market. However, his performance over the past four years has proved that he cannot become a star and can only be a role player. It is difficult for any team to offer him a big contract.

The best substitute performer in this game was Marcus Thornton, who scored 16 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists. His performance was better than that of Curry. Next season, the uniform team will consider the rookie renewal deadline at the end of January. Before arriving, he and Thornton will give priority to completing the contract renewal.

The uniform team will also negotiate with Curry in the summer. After his ankle injury, his statistics have declined, and he is not as good as the first season. No one can guarantee that he will be safe and sound in the future. The Clippers will not give him tens of millions. Contract renewal.If Curry does not accept, he will be an important bargaining chip in the summer trade.

叶锋得到了23分5篮板12助攻2抢断2盖帽，标准控球后卫的数据。他主防的维斯布鲁克只得到了12分4篮板7助攻，两人实力差距明显。

The six Clippers scored in double figures. McGee played the most beautiful game of his career, with 30 points, 15 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 4 blocks. Paul Gasol scored 28 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks. More beautiful than Gasol data.In fact, it's not that McGee is strong. Gasol's goals are all singles under strict defense. Most of McGee's points are easy shots and misplaced offenses, but he can get so many points, which is enough for him to be proud for a while.

In the first game, the Clippers beat the Grizzlies to the core, and they never dared to talk about eliminating the Clippers and advancing to the next round.

No matter how strong the Grizzlies' starting lineup is, they are not as good as the Clippers. Griffin is still a rookie, and Gasol has just returned.Most importantly, they lack a defensive swingman.

In Ye Feng's previous life, Battier and Tony Allen were both in the Grizzlies.The Black Eight miracle eliminated the Spurs, thanks to two defensive players. Now Allen is in the Clippers, Battier is in the Hawks, Gay, Sam Young and others can't defend Ye Feng.

It is worth mentioning that after this season, Battier will become a free agent and will definitely become the target of many teams. His body is not as good as before, and his overall defensive ability is still very strong. He is a very good team player. Championship jigsaw puzzle.Ye Feng also considered whether to hire Battier, but now that the Clippers have Allen, Barnes, Wright, and Smith, there is not much chance for a swingman to play.I just hope that Battier will not choose the Heat again. The Heat's lineup is already abnormal, and Battier will be stronger. Whether he is a starter or a substitute, he can help the team.

After the game, the Grizzlies lost their spirits and stopped talking about winning in interviews.

Head coach Hollins said: "Today we still didn't do a good job of defending against Ye Feng. Although he didn't score many points, he passed a lot of good balls. And his defense is so good that he won the best defensive player. Deserved. We need to figure out how to deal with him in the next game."

Westbrook was terrified. "I can't believe there will be a player like him in the league. Even if he loses a point, he is still a star. It is difficult for him to break through and open space. I think I have passed him a few times, but a jump Get up and shoot, he is in front of me again."

The reporter asked: "Do you think Ye Feng is the best player in the league now?"

Westbrook smiled bitterly: "I think he is the best. For us, this is a difficult series. The pressure is much higher than when we played the Thunder, but we will work hard to win."

Griffin was also honest. He tried dunks in this game and was pulled down.He complained that the Clippers' defense was too rough, but in fact, the way he played was not rough?

After a day of rest, neither side had any training. The Clippers won the first game easily, which was also related to the fact that the Grizzlies had just finished their 7th game. The players were exhausted both mentally and physically.

On May 5, the Clippers played the second game against the Grizzlies.

Hollins made adjustments to the lineup. Surprisingly, he put Westbrook on the bench, and Vasquez, who is 198cm tall, played the starting point guard.

Vasquez's quality is average, the first step is not fast enough to easily break through the offense when facing the defender.But his vision and passing ability are excellent, he can find teammates anywhere on the court in the half court offense, and he also shows amazing creativity in the fast break.In the pick-and-roll tactics, his breakthrough timing is well grasped, and the rhythm is a bit peculiar, which can make up for his mediocre athletic ability.The Grizzlies don't need him to attack with the ball when they send him to start, as long as they use their height advantage to pass the ball to Gasol and Griffin on the outside.

Special people are suitable for special tactics. Hollins is not rigid. This change has achieved results. Griffin played McGee in the low post and scored consecutively.Griffin has a strong offensive ability with the ball, similar to a small forward's style of play, which makes McGee a bit overwhelmed.

And Ye Feng was wasting no matter defending Vasquez or Wilzer Henry, so the Clippers replaced Wright and added an offensive point, allowing Ye Feng and Gay to match up.Gay was blocked, but the Grizzlies opened up the inside line. The Clippers trailed 28 to 29 by 1 point in the first quarter.

In the second quarter, Westbrook had the upper hand against Thornton.Among the rookies that year, Westbrook had the best perimeter defense and could limit Thornton one-on-one. Fortunately, there were Josh Smith and O'Neal to guarantee the Clippers' offense.Kidd's role as a substitute is also obvious. He can always pass the ball comfortably to the low post, rarely makes mistakes, and helps his teammates create offensive opportunities.

In the first half, the two sides were evenly matched. In the second half, Ye Feng, Smith, and Tony Allen were on the court together, and the defense was improved to a higher level. Westbrook and Griffin could no longer be arrogant, and Love and McGee grabbed rebounds and counterattacked. , the Clippers still exceeded the score.

Tony Allen's defense is very strong. His playing time is short, less than 15 minutes per game, and he can play a role. Westbrook is stimulated again. He thinks that Tony Allen is a substitute, a marginal man, but But it prevents him from catching the ball, and it is difficult to break through after catching the ball.

The other series have also played two games, and the Heat lead the Knicks 2-0.Anthony was suppressed by James in two consecutive games and only scored 17 points in the second game.James used the defense around the front, making Anthony unable to catch the ball comfortably, and Billups did not do a good job in breaking the front pass.

Billups is a star guard, but his specialty is not passing, so the Nuggets are willing to give him to the Knicks and put Ty Lawson on the post.The Heat let Chalmers start against Billups, defended the outside three-pointer, and didn't suffer much. Billups also regressed this season.

On the Heat's side, Wade and James' offenses cannot be defended one-on-one. The Heat won both games easily, and experts believe that the Knicks are likely to be swept.

The Spurs became 1-1 against the Mavericks.The Mavericks came off the bench in the second game. Terry and Beaubois scored 37 points together, and Stojakovic also scored two three-pointers.After this game, the Spurs lost home court advantage.

邓肯这场比赛只得到了16分8篮板3助攻。小牛德隆.威廉姆斯38分5篮板7助攻完爆托尼.帕克。进入季后赛后他的数据非常漂亮，小牛正式进入了双核时代。

The most surprising thing was the game between the Nets and the Celtics. It is estimated that many gamblers lost miserably.The Nets actually won two away games, leading the Celtics 2-0.

The Celtics paid the price for trading Perkins out of the team, leaving only Kevin Garnett, Jermaine O'Neal, Glenn Davis, and Jeff Green as their insiders.Without Perkins' resistance, Garnett's defense is not as good as before.The Celtics' inside line, which was originally superior, was blown up by the Nets.

Scola, who has been at his peak recently, can be called the new king of the Nets. After entering the playoffs, he averaged 20.5 points and 8 rebounds per game. La looked fearless, using jumpers and low-post singles to score points under Garnett's defense.It can be seen from these two games that Garnett is indeed old.

Scola formed the perfect suppression of Garnett.In addition, Brook Lopez also beat Jermaine O'Neal.The Celtics substitute insider Davis did not play a role, and his "nemesis" Hayes went to the Nets.The Celtics win on the perimeter. Ariza and Ray Allen face off and defend with all their strength. Outlaw and Hayward fight against Pierce. The Celtics rely on their stars on the perimeter. They cannot match the Nets. ...

Time is not forgiving. This season, the statistics of several veteran players in the league, except for Kobe, have declined to varying degrees. This is the era of young people.
