Chapter 204 The Cardinal's Death
After the game, Yang Zhan only accepted interviews from domestic commentator Zhang Lili and the Grizzlies media.

After all, they were the only ones during the losing streak, and they did not attack the Grizzlies. After returning to the locker room to wash up, Yang Zhan sat in front of his locker for a short time "in a daze".

Ding!Congratulations to the host for completing the mission "Reject 5 consecutive losses."

Ding!Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Iverson player experience card (06-07 season).

Oh yeah!I feel that I must be possessed by the Emperor of Europe. It's not that Chris Webber is bad, but I definitely want Iverson more in comparison.

Ding!Iverson's actual height is less than 1 meters. How can Yang Zhan not understand what the system prompts at this time.

This is to tell Yang Zhan in a disguised form that the fusion of ability values ​​must not be high, so he knows that this dog system will not randomly distribute benefits.

So Yang Zhan turned his grief and anger into motivation, practiced in the arena for an extra night, washed it briefly and then returned home.

Lying on the bed, Yang Zhan took out his mobile phone and found that there were indeed fewer people complaining about the Grizzlies on the Internet. However, after a closer look, it had nothing to do with their winning.

Because everyone's eyes were attracted by another incident, according to the Associated Press, the Celtics officially announced.

A legend in the coaching world, former head coach Auerbach, who led the Celtics to nine NBA championships, died in Washington at the age of 9.

Don’t have too many classic incidents of the Cardinal, let’s just talk about his former disciples, Lord of the Rings Russell, Bird Bird, Chief Parish, Kevin McHale
He is linked to so many super players, one can imagine how much attention this news will attract fans, thinking that Yang Zhan suddenly admires those who are still scolding the Grizzlies.

After all, such a big event has not forgotten me, Grizzly, so it is conceivable that this is also a kind of affirmation!

Early the next morning, the players gathered in the arena, and Nelson took the Grizzlies to present a ticket to Portland.

This process is actually the same every time we play an away game. The only difference is that the head coach Nelson is wearing a black suit today and looks very serious.

Yang Zhan knows that in today's game, every coaching staff will be dressed in the same way, which is the official requirement to commemorate Reed Auerbach.

At around [-]:[-] p.m. that day, the Grizzlies headed to the Moda Center.

During the interview, the reporters were more around Ellis of the Trail Blazers and Roy of his own team.

Needless to say, the former was traded away by the Grizzlies, so the reporter naturally wanted to get something out of him.

As for Roy, the Blazers had revealed that they liked this player very much before the summer draft, but everyone knew the final result.

After the pre-match interview was over, the two teams were conducting the final warm-up, the referee whistle sounded, and the game officially started.

The starting lineup sent by the Grizzlies is Yang Zhan, Roy, Battier, Warrick, and Chandler.

The starting lineup sent by the Blazers is, point guard: Jarrett Jack, shooting guard: Ellis, small forward: Amy Udoka, power forward: Zach Randolph, center: Joel Przybilla.

Even though the opponent has a height of 2 meters, Chandler used the bullet speed and explosiveness to still jump the ball successfully to give the Grizzlies the first chance to attack.

"Friends in the audience, the player who is currently facing Yang Zhan is the No. 22 pick in the first round of the same session as him." Zhang Lili did not come to the scene today, but he is currently explaining the game in China.

Faced with this player, Yang Zhan did not choose to play hard, but asked Chandler to come out and play a pick-and-roll. This change of defense was much easier.

With a simple change of direction, Przybila's footsteps directly showed flaws due to his height and center of gravity.

Taking this opportunity, Yang Zhan immediately accelerated, leaving his opponent behind in an instant.

As a center, Chandler is a veteran. It should not be too easy to get Jarrett a point guard. There is no one in the road ahead.

The Blazers attacked, the audience started booing, and Ellis immediately took the ball when he heard the fans shouting.

He took the ball to the front court and found Roy directly. When he moved to the left 45°, he asked his teammates to pull away.

The simple two dribbles immediately speeded up, and he still chose his best breakthrough. Roy's defense was poor, and Ellis broke out so violently.

So Roy was left behind directly, broke through to the basket to face Chandler, jumped head-on and folded for a layup to avoid interference and hit a shot.

"Good shot! Although the Trail Blazers are still at the bottom of the league so far, due to the skyrocketing ball possessions, Ellis can average 18.7 points, 3.2 rebounds and 3.7 assists per game this season. If he can maintain this state, he must be the most powerful contender for the most improved player this season." Zhang He understood.

The Grizzlies attacked, and Yang Zhan took the initiative to pass the ball to Roy in the frontcourt, and the latter came to the right corner and directly started a back attack.

Twice to find the rhythm, followed by a step-back jump shot, swipe!Hit, although Roy's defense is not good, but Ellis' defense is even worse.

The Blazers wanted to play singles when attacking Ellis, but Randolph in the low post kept asking for the ball and weighed the pros and cons.

Jarrett. Jack still hangs to Randolph, no matter how bad the team is, he is still the current boss.

The latter's fat back was fought, but Warrick's muscles couldn't move at all. The key is that Randolph's hands are still very good.

After squeezed out the space, a small toss shot turned around.

brush!Hit!

However, the little fat man was slow when retreating, and completely lost the enthusiasm he had when he just attacked.

This allowed the Grizzlies to find an opportunity for a fast break. Yang Zhan made a ground pass and passed it to Warrick who cut inside.

Just talking about the offensive end of the Blazers is not bad, especially Randolph is definitely a star player, but the problem is that they are not active in retreating defense.

I don't know if it was the opponent's management who wanted the No. [-] pick on purpose, or it was because of the defensive attitude of the players themselves.

In the last 5 minutes of the first quarter, Nelson suddenly replaced Chandler and replaced him with power forward Swift.

After playing, he told Yang Zhan that the coach meant to fight and run. Originally, the two sides were evenly matched. After all, no one can defend the other.

But as soon as Nelson changed the lineup, the situation on the field changed.

Because the Blazers were not active in retreating, the Grizzlies increased the offensive rhythm, so that the opponent lost points faster.

As Yang Zhan ran to the midfield, he passed a long pass to Battier in the bottom corner, and the latter made a three-pointer at the buzzer after receiving the ball.

brush!Hit!

The whistle sounded to end the first quarter, and the Grizzlies led the Blazers by 31 points 23 to 8.
