Chapter 1254 The Hot Dog Boy Who Is Already the Face of the Team (Part [-])
"Facing the inside of the Clippers with DeAndre and Love, what preparations do you have tonight~?!"

Before the game between the Grizzlies and the Clippers, the reporter interviewed the Grizzlies center in the locker room, who was also the focus of the game - Gasol Jr.

"Both of them are high-quality inside players. I am looking forward to the matchup with them. The Clippers have played very well this season. Tonight's inside competition will be extremely fierce~ I'd better do my own thing ~, I don’t have much other ideas~”

Gasol Jr. responded.

"Since Griffin was absent, your helper in the paint has been replaced by Speights. Will this make you need more energy on both offense and defense~?!"

The reporter continued to ask.

"Maybe~, Speights can open up space for me, so I think everything is okay, and I didn't put too much effort~, I just do what I should do and complete the role assigned by the coach~"

Gasol Jr. continued to answer in a simple tone.

After the game started, Gasol Jr. also fulfilled his words when answering the questions.

Offensively, there are strong scoring points, supporting assists, and on the defensive end, there is a highlight moment of chasing and blocking Harden. One person supports the Grizzlies' inside line.

But after all, Gasol's physical strength is limited, and there are no inside players behind him, so in the middle of the first quarter, Gasol was replaced.

He played 6 and a half points, contributed 6 points, 4 rebounds, 2 assists, and 1 block.

"Swipe~!!"

"Click~, brush~!!"

Once Gasol came off the court here, the Clippers began to launch a very violent offensive on the inside.

Love's hook and Harden's layup helped the team start to narrow the point difference.

"Papapa~!!, continue to play inside, resolutely attack the basket~!!!"

Lan Shengli clapped his hands and shouted.

25: 23.

The Clippers took advantage of the time after Gasol left the field to recover a lot of points difference, and they are only two points behind.

After the start of the second quarter, the Grizzlies immediately replaced Gasol Jr.

The Grizzlies with or without Pau Gasol are definitely different.

Gasol Jr. was the soul of the team when Griffin was away.

"If Mark continues to support in the high position, give him some defensive pressure, don't let him play the ball too easily, you can stretch your hands to interfere~!!"

Here Lan Shengli is still teaching Love, who is about to defend Jr. Gasol, how to do it face-to-face.

Le Fu listened, nodded, and came to the field.

After the start of the second quarter, the Grizzlies still let Gasol support at a high position, waiting for his teammates to move.

Love earnestly implemented what Lan Shengli had arranged before, and defended close to Gasol.

But Gasol didn't panic, he bent his back and held the ball, which was very safe.

Here, with the help of Speights' cover, Conley ran out and prepared to make a hand-to-hand cover pass with Gasol Jr.

This routine is very familiar to the Clippers.

So when Love saw this, he immediately prepared to start early and cut off the connection between Gasol and Conley.

"What~?!"

However, just as Love gave up his defensive position and was about to steal the ball, he suddenly exclaimed.

I saw that Gasol just made a hand-to-hand cover pass fake move with Conley. Taking advantage of the timing of Love's prediction of the steal, Gasol turned around very lightly and passed Le Fu in an instant. Fu's defense, and then completed a "golden cicada escapes its shell" to get rid of it.

"Oh~!!!"

Seeing such a wonderful operation by Gasol Jr., the FedEx Center exclaimed again.

The speed of that turn around was so fast that it didn't look like the movement of an inside player at all.

After getting rid of Love, Gasol dribbled the ball and killed towards the inside.

Gasol, who is like a heavy tank, is difficult to stop.

Here, Jordan tried to block the shot, but Gasol had already raised the ball above his head with both arms, ready to dunk with both hands, and Jordan gave up.

"Duang~!!!!"

A gravitational two-handed filling frame, Gasol Jr. drew a perfect end to this personal performance.

"I forgot that Gasol still has this trick. When he was asked to represent the Lausanne Academy, he often used this trick. I really didn't expect it~ After such a long time, this One trick is still being used, and it is still very proficient ~, I really can’t be careless~~!!”

Seeing this, Lan Shengli thought to himself.

"Kevin, don't stick to the defense anymore, switch back to the previous defensive strategy ~, switch back, it doesn't matter, you did a good job just now ~!!"

Lan Shengli reminded Love.

It is indeed too embarrassing for Love to defend Gasol Jr.

After all, Love is a power forward, and he needs to put more energy on the offensive end, so of course Love will struggle on the defensive end.

Here, Love is obviously not so proactive on the offensive end, and the pick-and-roll with Harden is just a formality. Harden wanted to pass the ball, but found that Love didn't want to catch it at all. Just when he hesitated, Directly surrounded by Gasol Jr. and Tony Allen.

The two directly "grabbed" the ball.

"Beep~!!!"

Even though Harden tried his best to protect the ball, the referee whistled for a scrimmage, and the Grizzlies once again made a successful defensive round.

And let Gasol and Harden jump the ball, which is basically announcing the Grizzlies' possession of the ball.

"You can't play like this~ Maybe you should let Jordan defend Jr. Gasol. After all, Love needs more energy on the offensive end~"

With a cautious expression, Lan Shengli held his chin, thinking.

"Yeah!!"

With a cheer, Gasol Jr. helped the Grizzlies jump to the ball without any suspense.

Here, because Lan Shengli hasn't given any instructions yet, Love is still defending Gasol.

Here, Conley dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and after making a pick-and-roll cooperation with Gasol, he immediately returned it to the latter.

Gasol stood at the top arc three-point line and aimed at the basket. Love subconsciously prepared to block the shot, but after looking at the position, he felt that Gasol would not shoot a three-pointer, nor would he be so sloppy. The end of the attack, so after two tentative steps, they retreated.

Gasol Jr. didn't really want to shoot, but was doing supporting actions.

Le Fu did not cling to it this time.

But when everyone was preparing to attack and defend, Gasol suddenly turned around and aimed at the basket again.

"No way~?!"

Love looked at Gasol's very focused eyes and the shooting preparations that had already appeared, and his eyes widened in surprise.

"What~?!, three-pointer~?!?!"

Even Lan Shengli was surprised.
