One thing to say, Marc Gasol is really strong and has quite a tonnage. Wang Zelin tentatively pushed the ball twice, then went to the right waist to ask for the ball here.
It's not that he can't stand it, but he doesn't think it's necessary.
The process of fighting a grizzly bear is extremely painful. He needs to cherish and make good use of every physical energy and strive to use it on the tip of the knife.
After receiving the ball, Wang Zelin first took a tentative step, but Marc Gasol was unmoved and stuck closer to him.
Seeing this, Wang Zelin turned around and slipped to attack the frame, but Marc Gasol mistakenly thought that Wang Zelin would choose to pass or shoot. He was caught off guard and turned back to defend.
Randolph made up the defense in time and blocked Wang Zelin, but at this time Aldridge was free, jumped up and passed the ball, assisting Aldridge for an easy layup.
The Trail Blazers got off to a good start with 2:0.
"Mark, don't be nervous! Guard well, maybe you can really guard me from one or two goals tonight."
On the way back to defense, when he passed by Marc Gasso, Wang Zelin put on a good-tongued look.
Marc Gasol's face turned completely black. Damn you bastard. Do you think you've got me?
"Mark, don't be irritated by him, just watch me later!"
Randolph thought Marc Gasol was irritated by Wang Zelin's trash talk. After glaring at Wang Zelin, he hurriedly stepped forward to persuade him.
Grizzlies offense.
Mike Conley spent 6 seconds after halftime and conducted another pass, with 8 seconds left.
At this time, Randolph asked for the ball.
"Little Prince" Tayshaun Prince hit the ground and handed the ball to Randolph.
When playing against Aldridge, Randolph worked hard. He arched his back a few times and entered the paint area. He turned around to squeeze out a little space and hit a soft hook under the basket.
The two sides tied at 2:2.
The DJ at FedEx Arena shouted "Zach Randolph!!!" in a high and passionate tone.
A large number of fans at the scene stood up and cheered for their Bear King.
Trail Blazers offense.
Lillard advanced quickly, and the Trail Blazers went 3-on-2 in the frontcourt. After receiving the pass, Aldridge succeeded in a two-point jumper.
An individual sweeps all the team's current scores.
"Speed up your pace and retreat!"
On the sidelines, Dave Joerger roared dissatisfied.
Turn around and the Grizzlies attack.
The Trail Blazers have settled into a defensive position, and Wang Zelin retreats steadily to the basket, ready to make up defense at any time.
Conley advanced, Lillard defended, Batum defended Prince, and Wang Zelin defended Marc Gasol. Since Tony Allen had no independent offensive ability, Matthews guarded at a 45-degree angle. Randolph moved to the low post, and he and Aldridge were ready to double-team at any time.
But this time, after Mike Conley advanced to the frontcourt, he did not hand it directly to Randolph, but handed the ball to Marc Gasol, who suddenly took a step beyond the free throw line!
Big White Bear's high-level support!
After Randolph entered the three-second zone, he quickly turned back and ran to the left side of the three-second zone to help Prince block. The person who was blocked was Batum.
Wang Zelin immediately moved to the left sideline of the three-second zone to prevent Prince from cutting inside.
At this time, Randolph turned and took a step, entered the three-second zone again, leaned against Aldridge, and reached out for the ball!
After the Big White Bear dropped the ball to Randolph, he pulled it to the right short corner.
Aldridge was held up by Randolph, and he felt like he was being pressed down by a mountain of flesh, unable to move!
Facing his former little brother, Randolph was merciless, pushed in, and turned over for a jumper!
This is that sentence. Because of the messy off-court problems in the past, Randolph, a power forward with 20+10 top inside statistics all year round, is far underestimated.
When he came to the Grizzlies, he partnered with Marc Gasol, who had excellent defensive ability and beautiful organization. The black and white duo formed a perfect complement, and Randolph's offensive firepower was completely released.
In terms of the exquisiteness and richness of his offensive skills, Randolph is definitely one of the few active inside players.
After being pushed away, Aldridge rushed forward, but still failed to cause any interference. He watched Randolph hit a hollow mid-range jumper!
This goal was Randolph venting his anger at being given up by the Trail Blazers!
Why can't I be the one left behind?
The score was tied at 4:4.
At this time, people suddenly discovered that the current scoring of the Trail Blazers and Grizzlies all came from the 4th position of the two teams. This scene is all too familiar to them.
The players on the field reacted differently.
Randolph hit Aldridge with a shot, and then threw one into the latter's face. With a bright smile, he quickly retreated.
Looking at the old big brother's smile, Aldridge was so angry, "No, I want to give him back one too!"
At this time, Wang Zelin served the ball, and Lillard received the ball and slowly advanced.
In the frontcourt, the Grizzlies' defensive posture was in place, with Zach Randolph guarding the basket and Marc Gasol waiting for Wang Zelin near the free throw line. It seemed that the Grizzlies were still very afraid of Wang Zelin's shooting range.
Looking at other positions, Tony Allen and Prince guarded the three-point line, but they also showed a tendency to expand defense on the outside at any time.
Blocking the basket, focusing on the perimeter, and weak mid-range defense!
That's right, no matter how strong a team's defensive system is, it is impossible to defend the entire half of the court watertight. The reason why the mid-range dunk is known as the most difficult and most lethal shooting method is because Its spacious release area?
As soon as Lillard approached the three-point line, Wang Zelin tacitly raised it to the top of the key. When Lillard rushed to the top of the key, he accelerated to the left. Just as Conley was about to move laterally, he was blocked by Wang Zelin. Got it!
Lillard took a step to the left of the free throw line, faced Marc Gasol's rushing defense, and passed back to Wang Zelin, who was one step inside the three-point line. Then, together with other teammates, he quickly pulled away and started running without the ball. Bit!
The Trail Blazers used the same high-position support tactics!
Is this more powerful?
More importantly, the player defending Wang Zelin at this time is Mike Conley of the Grizzlies, which is a typical misplaced defense.
At this time, Wang Zelin's threat is not only passing the ball, but also the super threat caused by playing big and small.
Seeing Mike Conley, who was about two heads shorter than himself, Wang Zelin suddenly remembered this sentence:
"Kid, uncle is going to start spanking you from behind!"
What's going on?
Why do I suddenly feel guilty?
Then, under the spotlight, Wang Zelin honestly began to beat Conley from behind. When the 2.16 meter big man leans against the 1.85 meter Conley, the scene is simply too beautiful!
But then again, this method is undoubtedly the most reliable and reliable method!
Conley was pushed back repeatedly. Thinking that this was the case, Wang Zelin half-turned, raised his left foot slightly, and performed the "Golden Rooster Independence" jump shot of the same style as King Nuo Tian, which made Conley dumbfounded.
What a big guy, he actually plays with me on his own? You think too highly of me!
"Uh-huh!"
With the crisp sound of a hollow ball hitting the net, it represented Wang Zelin's first successful shot of the game.
In fact, his practice of the "Golden Rooster Independence" technique was far less advanced than that of King Nuotian, but after all, this was a big open space with basically no interference, so it was still easy to get in.
At this moment, he experienced the beauty of whoever Durant hits is mismatched.
It feels so good to feel jio!
