Chapter 287

"Hey, what a good shot, the pass was beautiful and the finish was beautiful." Domestic commentator Zhang Reasonable said.

"Yes, it can be seen that Livingston's skills are still more suitable for point guards, but now the Clippers' training direction for him seems to be developing towards an all-around small forward." Domestic commentator Yu Jia analyzed.

As time went on, the game on the field lasted to about 6 minutes, and the Grizzlies temporarily led their opponents by 18 points 10 to 8.

The reason why the two sides have such a point difference is because the Clippers' offensive and defensive ends, except for Brand, do not have a stable point.

Cassel's defense against Yang Zhan is an absolute colander. As for his current offensive ability, the strongest is the fadeaway jumper.

However, Yang Zhan's height and wingspan make the opponent's stunt difficult, so if he wants to make a difference on the offensive end, he can only rely on his teammates' pick-and-roll.

However, the Grizzlies switch defenses very quickly, and Cassel is moving very slowly now, so many opportunities cannot be grasped.

Mobley is even worse on the defensive end. Cassel has at least experience. When Yang Zhan breaks through, he knows when to steal the ball, although he didn't succeed once.
But Mobley has no chance of struggling. When breaking through, Roy can press the opponent and push in, and when shooting, he has the same advantage as Yang Zhan.

As for the opponent on the offensive end, he is indeed a bit threatening, with three-point accuracy and sharp breakthroughs. This is his technical characteristic.

With a hit rate of more than 40.00%, this kind of accurate defense must be close defense, so as long as you can keep up with him, the opponent's offensive threat will basically be reduced by half.

And if Mobley wants to force a breakthrough, then Roy, who is on the defense, will definitely be unable to defend, but Battier can step forward to make up the defense.

The opponent's passing ability is not good, and there is no mid-range urgency at all, so his two biggest characteristics are basically pinched by the Grizzlies.

Livingston is actually useless on the court, because he basically has no chances when facing Battier.

However, his organizational skills are indeed not bad, but you have to have the ball, otherwise you can only stare blankly when you see opportunities.

As for his defensive ability, it must be a colander, because Livingston and Yang Zhan are not much different in size, so the Grizzlies know his player very well.

And the most important thing is that Livingston can't compare with Yang Zhan in terms of experience or physical fitness, and the result is self-evident under such circumstances.

Brand is considered the most stable offense and defense of the Clippers, but he is also facing the strongest Gasol of the Grizzlies.

This made him spend a lot of energy every round, so Brand couldn't help the team chase points at all.

As for the opponent's center, Kaman, despite his double-double average per game, he basically relies on eating cakes for scoring, and basically relies on Brand's positioning for rebounds, and then he picks off the off-the-shelf.

The game went on for about 2 minutes, and the Clippers had no tendency to score accurately, and Livingston hadn't had any outstanding performance since a wonderful pass.

So the head coach Dunleavy called a timeout to the referee and made adjustments to the personnel on the field.

After the timeout ended, Nelson still sent the original starting lineup, Yang Zhan, Roy, Battier, Gasol, Chandler.

The lineup sent by the Clippers is, point guard: Jason Hart, shooting guard: Cuttino Mobley, small forward: Corey Maggette, power forward: Elton Brand, center: Chris Kaman.

The Grizzlies attacked, and Yang Zhan held the ball across the half court. Facing Jason Hart's defense, he immediately picked up his speed and chose to force a breakthrough.

The latter naturally couldn't stop Yang Zhan, and no one on the other side came up to double-team, when facing Chris Kaman under the basket.

Yang Zhan used the method of dribbling the ball behind his back, grabbed the ball from his right hand to his left hand, and then followed a big jump to transfer his body to the other side.

When Yang Zhan avoided Kaman's interference, he used his best low-hand pick.

brush!Hit!

In turn, the Clippers attacked, and Jason Hart came to the frontcourt with the ball. The second-round pick who entered the league in 00 played for the Kings last season and averaged 3.3 points, 0.8 assists and 1.2 rebounds per game.

It seems that this player is very young, but there is no potential to be tapped, so Yang Zhan is very puzzled. In this way, the management can give opportunities, why not let Livingston, who is more talented, play point guard.

For Hart's defense, Yang Zhan took a step back and did not let go, because the opponent's three-pointer is not much different from Livingston.

And Hart also knew his position on the field, so when he first came to the frontcourt, he passed the ball directly to Maggette.

When the latter faced Battier's defense, even if the opponent asked him to shoot, he still chose to force a breakthrough.

But the effect seems to be quite good, because Maggette is absolutely pressing his body, so Battier's defensive skills have no chance to be used at all.

Seeing this situation, Yang Zhan went up to double-team directly, and Maggette's speed of the ball was not much different from Mobley.

Therefore, Brand, who was in a deep position at the basket just now, had to withdraw in order to avoid three seconds.

At this time, it was too late for Maggette's pass, Brand had already withdrawn, and Gasol just broke the ball.

Seeing this, Yang Zhan immediately launched a one-man fast break, and just after halftime, he directly received a long pass from Gasol.

At this time, the only one who could keep up with him was Mobley, who was originally on the outside. When Yang Zhan came to the basket to face interference.

He jumped up and took the initiative to find his body to fight, and then when the referee's whistle sounded, he picked the basket with his low hand and threw the ball.

brush!Hit!

When Yang Zhan walked to the free throw line, the fans began to cheer enthusiastically, and then he took a deep breath, took two shots and made an extra penalty.

The Clippers attacked, Mobley held the ball directly to the frontcourt, and then gave the ball to Maggette in the left bottom corner.

When the latter was facing Battier's defense, he first made a false move to bow to Buddha, but he was lonely, the opponent showed no sign of moving at all, and he didn't think about his three-point shooting percentage.

However, Maggette and Ben didn't realize that he kept dribbling the ball on the outside, and finally adopted the same breakthrough method as before.

Using strength to carry Battier away, Yang Zhan must go up to double-team, and the latter is obviously prepared this time.

So the ball was played very fast. When Yang Zhan came over, Maggette gave the ball directly to Hart, who was open at the top of the arc.

The latter received the ball and no one went to defend him. Obviously, all the Grizzlies have full trust in him, and Hart really lived up to expectations. After a long time of meowing, he finally hit the iron.
