Chapter 368 G6
And just as the Grizzlies arrived in Salt Lake City and just got off the plane, they received a message.

Mavericks, really hacked!
After six games, the Warriors eliminated the regular season leader Dallas Mavericks 4-2.

This Nima... is delighted to hear and see!

On social media, fans directly sprayed Nowitzki away.

"Fortunately, the league gave the MVP to Li Lei. If it was given to Nowitzki, it would be a joke. The regular season championship team led by the MVP was hacked by No.8. This is an anecdote!"

"Nowitzki did a great job... he really didn't disappoint me. I said a long time ago that his soft-ass style of play can't be successful!"

"I post it as proof that Nowitzki will never win a championship in his life, otherwise I will live broadcast and eat Xiangxiang."

"The Mavericks should send Nowitzki away quickly. I think Josh Howard and Jason Terry are more reliable than Nowitzki as the core."

"Nowitzki is a data brush!"

……

Compared with these fans, the Grizzlies are more excited.

Because, the winner of the Warriors and Mavericks is their opponent in the next round.

If it's the Mavericks, the Grizzlies probably won't make it through.

But if it's the Warriors, the Grizzlies really don't care.

Do you think that the Warriors' upset and hacking of the Mavericks will be so powerful?
If you think about it too much, the top teams in the league don't like the Warriors at all, otherwise it wouldn't be called an upset.

Grizzlies vs Warriors, what does it mean?
As long as the Grizzlies beat the Warriors, they can make a historic break into the Western Conference Finals.

You said how could the Grizzlies not be excited.

Because of this incident, Grizzlies owner Michael Heisley and general manager Jerry West flew to Salt Lake City in person.

The two big bosses came to cheer the team in person, do a good job in logistics, and made great profits to the players and coaching staff.

The players and the coaching staff themselves also pay special attention to this matter.

You say you are an outstanding star and want a max salary?

What about your playoff record?How many championships have you won, how many times have you been to the finals, the divisional finals...regular season data?That thing is useless.

You say you're a great role player, what about your playoff numbers?What about the playoffs... You haven't made it to the conference finals yet, so how can you say you're good?

You said you are an excellent coach, what about your playoff results?You haven't even played in the conference finals... you say a hammer?

So when the Grizzlies knew that the Mavericks were hacked and the Warriors entered the second round, the players and coaching staff were already excited.

In addition, Kyle Lowry requested to play.

After almost a season of recuperation, Lowry's injury was almost healed, but the team doctor refused to let him play for the sake of safety.

"Coach, I can play, please! Let me deal with Deron, I am strong enough to limit him, at least much better than Tyronn. Please, let me play!"

Rick Carlisle was heartbroken.

Throughout the series, Deron was the toughest point for the Grizzlies to deal with.

Tyronn Lue's weak body did not hinder Deron at all.

Deron almost averaged a triple-double.

If Lowry comes back, I dare not say that he can defend Deron, but the defensive effect is definitely better than Tyronn Lue.

But in the end, Carlisle sought the opinion of the team doctor. In order to avoid any contingencies, he still did not agree to let Lowry play.

……

Of course, the Grizzlies were excited, and the Jazz were no exception. They also smelled blood.

Since Karl Malone left and Stockton retired, the Jazz have been languishing for several years.

The Jazz management also looks forward to the newly formed Shuangsha leading the team to achieve good results and rebuild the glory of the black and white Shuangsha.

It is said that the big boss of the Jazz moved upon hearing the news and spent a large amount of money to provide home fans with T-shirts, food and drinks, and invited Malone and Stockton to cheer for the team.

……

In short, in the eyes of the Jazz and Grizzlies, the Warriors are a piece of fat, not worth mentioning.

As long as they can pass the first round, they can easily defeat the Warriors and break into the Western Conference Finals.

So the already intense atmosphere on both sides suddenly became more tense.

The day before the game, the Jazz started a public training session, and the players were interviewed by the media.

Team core Deron Williams told reporters: "Our goal is 4 to 3. Yes, we will cross the Grizzlies. I am ready to crush everything that stops me!"

Young people, so energetic!
Carlos Boozer was more tactful: "Our goal is to take it step by step, and the final step is the first step. We will defend the home court and never allow the Grizzlies to take the victory from here again."

The rookie Paul Millsap, who performed amazingly in the previous few games, was also interviewed: "I know I still have a lot of shortcomings, but I will study hard. As long as the coach allows me to play, I will do my best!"

……

Watching these interviews, you can feel the momentum of the Jazz team, and the three armed forces use their lives.

Other than that, crazy Jazz fans next shot.

They blocked the Grizzlies' bus at the airport and on the road, just to affect the opponent's rest time.

A group of young fans evaded police patrols and went to the hotel where the Grizzlies stayed to disturb the opponent's rest.

Knowing that the Marriott Hotel has just done a noise reduction project, they will not give up, even if it can affect the opponent a little bit.

Finally, the much-anticipated sixth game arrived.

The Grizzlies have been disturbed by Salt Lake City fans since they entered the arena.

Tyronn Lue, Milicic, Jones Sr., Gasol, Li Lei...

Every time a Grizzlies player walked out of the tunnel, Salt Lake City fans booed earth-shatteringly.

Especially when it came to Li Lei, the fans in Salt Lake City went crazy and screamed crazily. It seemed that they wanted to use a sonic attack to inflict a wave of internal injuries on Li Lei first.

"Trash, you don't want to win here!"

"You are not heroes, you are just a bunch of bears, you will be ridden by Salt Lake City!"

"Are you ready to die? We'll blow you up!"

"This will be your most memorable night, your most humiliating night."

……

And when the Jazz played, the fans on the scene broke out in huge cheers.

Fisher, Deron, Kirilenko, Boozer, Okur.

"Deron, use yours to crush the opponent and blow them up!"

"Andre, come on, you can guard Stone, you are the best defender in the league!"

"Mehmet, shoot through the Grizzlies line. Pin every guy that comes in the paint to the floor."

"The Jazz must win! Salt Lake City must win!"

……

Drip!

With the whistle sounded, the whole game began.

Okur took a look at the jump ball and turned the ball back to his home half.

On the first ball, the Jazz attacked.
