ace marshal

Chapter 845
From a player who was unable to compete in the NCAA, to the second-round pick in the draft, and then to the main center of the Memphis Grizzlies.

Gasol's growth and transformation along the way has surprised too many people and surprised too many people.

Even Lan Shengli, who knew Gasol Jr., was overwhelmed by Gasol Jr.'s performance.

A turnaround throw, a fake dunk, and a three-pointer after giving a teammate a high-quality pick-and-roll.

In the first three offenses of the Grizzlies, the first two relied on Gasol to score directly. Although Conley made the last one, half of the credit should be given to Gasol's pick-and-roll quality.

And on the defensive end, Gasol Jr. also gave Jordan a hot pot that was bound to slam dunk, and he withstood Harden's impact, with his arms straight, without giving Harden a chance to make a foul.

And the main reason is that the Grizzlies' offensive shooting rate after the opening was very high, and they never missed shots at all.

"Dum~!!!"

Lan Shengli felt that the situation was not right, and immediately called a timeout.

The team is now 2:7 behind, and it is very likely to continue to fall behind.

"Okay, stop Bru, huh~!! You know how much I've improved this time~!! Let's reflect on it~!"

Here, Gasol walked towards the bench, looking up at the technical statistics while thinking.

Although Lan Shengli and Lan Shengli are absolute close friends off the court, and Lan Shengli can be regarded as Gasol's mentor, but on the court, all these relationships don't exist. Only winning the game is the most important thing.

Only by striving to win the game can we express the greatest respect for the opponent.

"Did everyone forget the things I arranged with you before the game~?!"

After discussing with the coaching staff, Lan Shengli quickly came to the team members, hammered the tactical board with his fist, and asked angrily.

The players didn't say anything either.

Obviously, the team members also knew that they really didn't play well during this time.

Lan Shengli stared angrily at the team members and paused for a few seconds.

"When Gasol is doing the pick-and-roll, the inside players must prepare in advance, and they must come out to make a big delay~!! Don't give the opponent such a large shooting space, don't slack~!! Be tense~!! Defensive strength up~! !"

Lan Shengli shouted.

"I told you before that the Grizzlies are basically our most direct competitors for this season's playoffs. If we lose to them tonight, it is very likely that it is because of this loss that we will not be able to reach the season. Playoff~!! So everyone must know the importance of this game~!!!”

Lan Shengli continued to remind.

"There is also the defense against Gasol, what I told you before, you'd better stop implementing it, this is my fault as a coach, I didn't accurately grasp the characteristics of the opponent's key players and the game In the current state, you should defend Jr. Gasol like his brother, we have already played against each other in the opening game, so you should know how to defend~!!"

Lan Shengli continued to speak.

This is more for Jordan.

"The offensive end opens up space, and it doesn't have to be a switch. Gooden has an obvious height advantage at this point, play more of this~, quickly retreat after failing to score, don't look at the inside to grab rebounds, do it in advance Prepare to retreat~!!"

Here Lan Shengli continues to remind the players.

The game restarts.

The Clippers players listened to Lan Shengli's deployment very much. Although there was no designated tactic, giving the ball to Gooden was already the most designated tactic.

Facing Carroll here, Gooden still made a half-turned mid-range shot after hitting back.

"Clang~!!"

But this time the ball was a little shorter and hit the side of the basket.

Gasol Jr. and Jordan Jr., two "junior" players, their arms are entangled with each other. Jr. Jordan wants to take off to grab a rebound, but Jr. Gasol sticks close to him and refuses to let him get up.

The two people were "lingering" in the interior, which actually helped Gooden.

I saw that after Gooden threw the ball, he felt that his strength was short, so he rushed into the inside line, jumped high, grabbed the ball in the air, and wiped it towards the backboard.

"Tap, brush~!!"

This time, Gooden didn't waste any more opportunities, and made a steady tip-up, which can be regarded as allowing Lan Shengli's timeout arrangement to be fulfilled into a score.

However, Jordan's move to involve Gasol Jr. in the paint is also crucial.

"After interfering with the shot, you must immediately get stuck, and you can't let the opponent rush for the rebound so easily~!!"

Here, Grizzlies coach Hollins confronted Carroll, spreading his hands and questioning.

Carol stretched out his hand, indicating that it was his problem.

After all, Carroll is also a rookie player, and he definitely lacks too much experience.

If it weren't for the second pick Griffin's reimbursement for the season, Carroll would not have come to the starting position.

Besides, Carroll played the small forward position in college before.

Whether it is height or strength, it is difficult for Carroll to gain a foothold in the fourth position.

But since Hollins chose this way, maybe there is a reason for it.

While talking here, the Grizzlies attacked again.

It was still Conley and Gasol's pick-and-roll cooperation. This time, Jordan learned his lesson and made a big delay in advance, making it difficult for Conley to play the ball for a while and destroying the Grizzlies' offensive continuity.

"Papapa~!! That's it, that's it~!!"

Lan Shengli clapped his hands to encourage and shouted at the far end.

Seeing that there was no good chance here, Conley gave the ball to Guy.

Gay broke through with the dribble and distributed it to Gasol, who was near the middle distance on the wing.

"Every offense has to go through the hands of Gasol Jr., and the time of possession of the ball is longer than that of guard Conley. It seems that Jr. Gasol is really the core of the Grizzlies offense and defense now~!!"

Lan Shengli sighed.

"As for Griffin coming back, that's hard to say~"

Lan Shengli continued to sigh.

Here I saw that after Gasol got the ball, as if he had received a hot potato, he passed the ball back to Guy again without sticking to the ball.

Gay, who came to the basket, has the advantage of height and jumping against Thornton.

Gay dribbled the ball once, found the feeling, and directly stepped back to the paint area near the bottom line, jumped high, and shot backward.

Because of the super-high take-off height and backward swing, Thornton can only catch up.

"Swipe~!!"

The ball went into the net again crisply, with an assist from Gasol Jr.

The Grizzlies still maintain a 100% shooting rate so far.

"Limited Gasol's personal offense, but he can drive his teammates to score. There is no doubt about it. This is the real core of the Grizzlies team. This is really troublesome~"

Lan Shengli propped his chin, showing a deep expression, sighed, and thought again.
