The invincible kryptonite of basketball

After the opening ceremony, the starters of the two teams appeared one after another.

As in the previous two games, there were no adjustments to the starters on both sides.

Amidst the cheers of the home fans, Gasol Jr. turned the ball back to the Grizzlies half, officially kicking off Game [-] of the series.

Conley dribbled the ball to the frontcourt, and Randolph had a small pick-and-roll with Gasol inside. After he switched to Whiteside, he turned his back and asked for the ball.

Conley puts the ball in, and Randolph gouges in a few times before turning and leaning back toward the baseline.

Whiteside jumped out very hard, but Randolph's receding range was large enough and his release point was high enough.

"Shh!"

The ball fell heavily into the net pocket after crossing a high parabola.

Randolph opened the scoring for the Grizzlies.

After the goal, Randolph was emotional and shouted at Whiteside who was defending him.

"Welcome to the playoffs, lad!"

Whiteside frowned slightly when he heard Randolph's shout.

He was made very uncomfortable by Randolph in the last game, and this time Randolph took the initiative to shout and made him even more uncomfortable.

In the Pelicans' offense, Tang Tian double-teamed the ball to Ariza, who missed a three-pointer.

Whiteside used his long arm to pick off the offensive rebound inside, directly confronted Randolph and then layup.

Although Randolph is shorter than Whiteside, he is really tough enough. He relied on his body to resist Whiteside's layup and grabbed the defensive rebound.

"No way! This is my territory!"

After grabbing the rebound, Randolph turned around and yelled at Whiteside again.

Chapter 669 This is the stage of superstars (fourth update!) (repair)

Whiteside got angry and pushed Randolph directly.

Randolph was about to go up to fight Whiteside with his elbow, but was held back by Gasol Jr. on the side.

After separating the two, the referee went to the technical stage to watch the replay.

At this time Tang Tian pulled Whiteside and said a few words.

In the last game, the team was very passive in the interior because of Whiteside's foul. Now if they are impulsive, they may lose the game again.

After Tang Tian's persuasion, Whiteside's mood temporarily stabilized.

The penalty from the technical desk over there has also come out.

Whiteside received a technical foul.

Conley made a technical free throw and the Grizzlies continued to have the ball.

Randolph continued to attack Whiteside. He didn't go out this time, but went directly to the basket.

He is really tough and experienced. He shook his footsteps when he hit the penalty area, turned around and unloaded, and then shot to cause Whiteside's thugs.

Whiteside suffered a dark loss.

After seeing the referee's whistle, Randolph shouted excitedly on the spot, it felt like he didn't make a foul just now, but made a lore shot.

Whiteside frowned again.

He was aggrieved in the last game, and he wanted to fight back in this game, but he didn't expect to be suppressed very uncomfortable at the beginning.

This is Randolph's technical characteristics, which makes you unhappy, but you can't vent it.

Griffin should not be too deep in this feeling.

With two free throws under the boos, the Grizzlies lead 4-0 at the start.

Tang Tian stood up at a critical moment. After he broke through, he made an emergency stop before the help defense came up, breaking the scoring drought for the Pelicans.

In the next few minutes, the two teams strengthened their defensive strength on the field, and several waves of attacks on both sides failed to succeed.

The two sides played for more than three minutes and it was still 4-2 on the court.

This game is really grizzled.

At the critical moment, Tang Tian made a sudden pass to Davis, who broke into the paint and dunked for two points.

But as soon as the ball was scored, the referee's whistle sounded under the basket.

It turned out that Whiteside and Randolph had a physical conflict when they were stuck at the basket, and the referee blew a warning whistle.

In the Grizzlies' offense, Gasol Jr. turned around at the top of the arc and missed a hook.

Randolph used the card position to grab the offensive rebound, turned and shook continuously, turned and scored a layup.

Whiteside already had a foul, so he didn't dare to block the shot easily.

After Randolph scored the goal, he turned and glanced at Whiteside with a disdainful smile in his eyes.

"Your defense is like a woman's penis, soft and powerless."

Randolph said with a smile.

He was not just provocative, but was talking trash at Whiteside.

At this time, Whiteside's brain became hot, and he had completely forgotten about Tang Tian's persuasion, so he directly engaged in sex with Randolph.

The referee's whistle sounded, and the players on both sides came up and forcibly separated the two sides.

This time the referee didn't even watch the replay, so he gave Whiteside a technical foul first.

"He scolded me! He scolded me first!"

Whiteside was very unconvinced and kept appealing to the referee.

But the referee ignored it, and went to the technical platform to watch the replay to confirm further penalties.

Randolph was still angry a second ago, but when he walked to the bench, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Fuck!"

Tang Tian couldn't help being rude.

This Whiteside is really pitted.

Randolph obviously tasted the sweetness in the last game, and then deliberately ran to provoke Whiteside.

He has already persuaded, and Whiteside still can't control it well. This is really not just a matter of experience, but a real brain disease.

Now that the two technical fouls have accumulated together, Whiteside will be expelled, and the Pelicans will be cold inside.

To say that the Grizzlies are not only tough, but also have a lot of experience.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to complete black seven and black eight successively, and eliminated the Thunder for two consecutive years.

Although the Pelicans are second in the West and won the first game, it is not that simple to win this series.

After watching the technical replay, the referee gave each side a technical foul.

As a result, Whiteside accumulated two technical fouls and was directly expelled.

The tunnel was full of cheers when Whiteside came on the pitch.

The smile on Jogel's face couldn't be hidden, and the Grizzlies' hopes of winning the game suddenly increased.

On the stage of the playoffs, Whiteside's role is obvious to the Pelicans, and neither Biyombo nor McGee on the bench can replace his role.

And after ousting Whiteside, Randolph became perfectly sane again.

After the first quarter, the Grizzlies led the Pelicans by 26 points 21-5.

Randolph scored 10 points and 5 rebounds in a single quarter, and his performance was very eye-catching.

In the second quarter, the main players on both sides rested off the court.

Aminu and Morrow stepped forward for the Pelicans. The former defended Green's singles consecutively, and the latter hit two two-pointers one after another.

By the time the main players returned, the Pelicans had already tied the score.

Tang Tian and Davis played several wonderful cooperations in the second half of the game to help the Pelicans score consecutively.

But the Grizzlies also took advantage of Whiteside's absence and continued to attack the inside. In addition, Conley felt good on the outside and scored two three-pointers.

The stalemate reached a 50-level tie at halftime.

The game enters the halftime break.

The players went back to the locker room to rest from the player channels on both sides.

"This is our stage!"

"You are lost!"

"Tang, you are destined not to defeat us!"

……

This situation in the halftime is obviously beneficial to the Grizzlies. You must know that Whiteside will not be able to play in the second half.

In the first half, Aminu and Morrow became surprise players, but not necessarily in the second half.

These fans couldn't hold back their complacent emotions, and they had already started to revel in the victory ahead of schedule.

The stalemate has made the Pelicans' locker room dull.

The last Whiteside game was just a foul crisis, this time they couldn't play in the second half, and it was still an away game.

As the Grizzlies fans shouted, the Pelicans' game is really difficult.

After a short break, Williams and Borrego came to the locker room.

With the tactical board in hand, Williams was about to start talking about the tactical layout for the second half.

"Give me the ball, give me the singles."

Tang Tian suddenly spoke at this moment.

This was said so suddenly that everyone, including Williams, was stunned.

But after a brief silence, Williams put down the tactical board.

"Anthony, you are going to start in the second half. We defend in a 2-3 zone defense and attack to open up the space for Tang singles."

Williams doesn't have much tactical ability, but he really believes in his players.

Back in the second half, the Pelicans had lineup adjustments. It was not Biyombo who started for Whiteside in the second half, but Morrow.

This is a lineup of one big and four small.

Holiday took the ball to the frontcourt, and after the other three were completely separated, he gave the ball to Tang Tian, ​​and then ran to the weak side without the ball.

Tang Tian held the ball at a 45-degree angle on the right wing and faced Allen one-on-one.

There was a murderous look in his eyes.

Didn't the Grizzlies fans say this is their stage, so he reminded them.

The playoffs have never been a stage for any team, but a stage for superstars.

Chapter 6: Open Singles Mode (First update!) (Revised)

Ever since the league allowed double-teams, it's been the best defense teams have had against superstars.

But double-teaming actually depends on the situation.

Like the Pelicans' current lineup of one big and four small, the three outside shooters have a lot of space, and the Grizzlies' double-teaming is impossible.

Unless they want to challenge the open shooting ability of the Pelicans shooters.

The Pelicans' perimeter inaccuracy at halftime was based on the high-pressure defense given by the Grizzlies in the first half.
