Chapter 141

After the timeout, Nelson is still Atkins + Ellis + Yang Zhan + Posey + White, the running and bombing lineup that has just been played well.

The Celtics replaced, Marcus Banks + Szczerbiak + Pierce + Al Jefferson + Mark Blunt, this is to re-play positional warfare.

However, the situation of the game is still different. Although Pierce is invincible against Yang Zhan, the Grizzlies still beat the Celtics.

Because this is not something that the head coach can solve with just a few bowls of chicken soup. It is a problem with the players themselves and the team lineup. Just like the Grizzlies playing against the Spurs, they are always beaten without a temper.

If Rivers went to Pierce to stick to the position at the beginning of the second quarter, there might be a chance, but now the rhythm has been brought up by the Grizzlies.

At the end of the second quarter, the Grizzlies led the Celtics by 60 points 52-8.

After the intermission, the second half started. Seeing that Nelson was running and bombing well today, he continued to run and bomb.

But about 2 minutes into the third quarter, Nelson didn't feel good. He could see that the outside touch of this lineup began to decline.

Rivers also saw it. He felt that the opportunity to counterattack was coming, but Nelson directly called a timeout.

Then they sent a lineup of Yang Zhan + Eddie Jones + Battier + Gasol + Chakalidis to defend against you, and you said you are not making trouble.

In this way, the final game ended, and the Grizzlies beat the Celtics 102 to 92.

Yang Zhan played 35 minutes, made 10 of 5 shots, 5 of 2 free throws, scored 12 points, 3 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal, and 1 block.

Pierce played 38 minutes, made 17 of 11 shots, 3 of 1 three-pointers, 9 of 7 free throws, scored 30 points, 3 rebounds, and 2 assists.

An hour after the interview ended, the Grizzlies, under the leadership of the coaching staff, boarded a plane to Toronto to challenge the last game of the three-way game.

With the cool wind warning from the previous experience, Yang Zhan was covered in his little clothes when he got off the plane, which was really tight.

As a result, I was sweating all over my body.
The next day, after the Grizzlies finished their breakfast at the hotel, Nelson convened the whole team to discuss a wave of pre-game analysis against the Raptors.

At [-]:[-] a.m., Nelson leads the Grizzlies to the Canadian Airline Center.

The research before the game was quite thorough, and it can be summed up as the fourth-to-last in the Eastern Conference. Isn't that a slap in the face?

The result was really a slap, and let others slap it. After the game, the scores of the two sides were 87 to 101, and they lost to the Raptors by 14 points.

Of course, the reason for the loss was not lack of strength, but a physical problem. After playing three games in a row, his kidneys were overdrawn.

However, the head coach of the Raptors, Sam Mitchell, is really a bad old man. He took advantage of the poor physical strength of the Grizzlies and played fast breaks at the beginning of the game, so the point difference was quickly opened.

Then the Grizzlies couldn't get in from outside, and Nelson gave up.

Yang Zhan played 31 minutes and made 11 of 4 shots and 2 of 0 three-pointers. He only scored 8 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists.

Today's best in the field, Bosh's performance is really good.

He made 21 of 13 shots, 4 of 4 free throws, and finally scored 30 points, 11 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 block.

The beating by Gasol almost doubted his life. Although Yang Zhan did not play well after the game, there were still many domestic media interviews in Toronto.

As domestic media, what they ask is irrelevant, unlike the American media, which are all digging holes.

Originally, Yang Zhan had a good chat with a fellow reporter, but Bosh stretched out his long neck to rub against the camera.

This would be fine normally, but Yang Zhan suddenly thought of that magical skill: Rubbing the camera, and suddenly he was in a bad mood.

The three-game streak is finally over, and it can be seen that the Grizzlies are collectively relieved. After all, such a schedule is too tiring.

There will be a back-to-back at home after that, but fortunately there are two days of rest.

After returning to Memphis, the extra training naturally couldn't be stopped. Although the body and mind were exhausted, after a night of tossing, he was full of vigor again.

The next day, everyone in the FedEx Arena had already rested. Looking at Yang Zhan who was still practicing three-pointers without the ball, Gasol admired his recovery ability from the bottom of his heart.

I thought that young people nowadays are so wowed, but looking at Lu Wei and Ellis who are also exhausted, Gasol felt more balanced in an instant.

At 4:18 pm on April 03th, the Grizzlies played against the Timberwolves at home, and both sides sent their regular starting lineups.

In the end, the Grizzlies easily beat the Timberwolves to the Huskies 103 to 92, but there were also some episodes during the game.

Of course, it wasn't the Timberwolves player who broke out, but about 9 minutes into the third quarter of the game, there was a little conflict between White and Garnett when they were facing each other.

Then teammates from both sides rushed up to separate the two, and the conflict did not increase further.

Of course, the most important thing is that White is not like the original Yang Zhan. Garnett is also a really tough guy, explaining what it means to fight and retreat.

In the locker room after the game, White explained why he suddenly lost his composure when he was fine, because Garnett's verbal attacks never stopped from the beginning.

Especially when the score was drawn, Garnett's trash talk rose to a personal attack. Hearing this, Gasol beside Yang Zhan showed a deep understanding look.

This reminded Yang Zhan on the side that in 2013, Anthony and Garnett also had conflicts in the game.

Garnett said a famous trash talk in NBA history to Anthony, "Your wife tastes like a donut."
