Chapter 373 Grizzlies vs Warriors

When stars form a team, what they are most afraid of is fighting for the ball.

Once this is the case, it is very likely that 1+1 is less than 2.

In the 76ers, Iverson took the initiative to sacrifice the ball to help Yao Ming.Under such circumstances, Yao Ming integrated into the team faster, and the atmosphere of the team was very harmonious.

Tyronn Lue was still amazed: "It's really hard to imagine, this is not the Allen Iverson I know."

Old Jones smiled and said slowly, "Never underestimate the heart of a champion."

Yes, for the sake of the championship, this little sacrifice is nothing.

If there is no hope, Iverson may not care.

But now, the 76ers are one of the favorites for the championship, so it's not surprising that Iverson did this.

In the end, the 76ers beat the Cavaliers 110:98.

James played very aggrieved against the 76ers with Iguodala and Yao Ming. He made 21 of 7 shots and only made more than 8% of his field goals. In addition, he made [-] turnovers.

After the game, fans also began to discuss the game.

"This is not the Iverson we are familiar with, but I think the 76ers are getting closer to the championship."

"James is not suitable for a team that plays a big center, whether as a teammate or as an opponent."

"I feel that the 76ers are so good, the Cavaliers have no chance at all."

"The inside line can't stop Yao Ming, the outside line can't stop Iverson, and the Cavaliers are still playing snakes?"

……

By the second day.

The game between the Warriors and the Grizzlies is here.

The first game will be played at the FedEx Center in Memphis.

Tonight, the arena was full.

The Grizzlies broke into the second round of the playoffs for the first time in the 11 years since the team was established. This is a historic moment.

Just this week, the ball market in Memphis skyrocketed.

The first is the tickets requested by the FedEx Center. Before this year, the tickets for the Grizzlies were never sold out.

And now, the Grizzlies tickets have become a hot commodity.

Followed by peripheral products such as jerseys, sneakers, and newspapers, sales have skyrocketed.

Needless to say, Li Lei's jerseys have always been among the top five in North America and number one in the world.

But now, the sales of Gasol and Milicic's jerseys are also up.

Especially Milicic, once almost had no ball to play, but now his jersey has become a hit.

But speaking of it, the blond Milicic is indeed handsome and is responsible for the appearance of the Grizzlies.

Now that he has achieved results, it is only right that his jersey sells well.

……

The away team, the Warriors, played first.

Center: Andris Biedrins.

Power Forward: Al Harrington.

Small Forward: Stephen Jackson.

Shooting guard: Monta Ellis.

Point guard: Baron Davis.

There are also bench gangsters such as Matt Barnes, Jason Richardson, Michael Pietrus, Kelana Azubuike and others on the bench.

There was a loud booing at the FedEx center.

Then, it was the Grizzlies' turn to attack.

The Grizzlies are still a regular starter.

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

Although Kyle Lowry entered the activation list, coach Carlisle did not let him start. After all, Lowry has not played a game for a long time.

As the Grizzlies first entered the field, the audience set off a frenzy of cheers!
"Grizzlies must win! Memphis must win!"

"Kill the Warriors!"

"Hurry up and let the Jinzhou people go back to their hometown and go fishing."

……

There was even a group of Memphis fans standing on the seats, imitating the sweeping action, and shouting in unison: "Sweep the Warriors!"

It can be seen that Memphis fans are very confident.

After all, the Grizzlies have even passed the Jazz, so what is the eighth Warriors.

But the Warriors players obviously don't think so.

The old coach Nelson encouraged: "Children, you can do it, I believe in you!

People used to think we couldn't make the playoffs, but now we are in the playoffs.

People used to think we were no match for the Dallas guys, but we beat them.

Now, some people feel that we are no match for the Memphis people. You say, what should we do? "

"Kill them! Kill the Memphis!"

The Warriors players roared in unison.

The movement of the Warriors also attracted Li Lei's attention.

Li Lei knew that.

Everyone thinks that the Warriors are not the opponents of the Grizzlies, and that the Warriors are weak.

But the fact is just the opposite.

The Warriors have just completed the first "black eight" since the playoffs adopted the 7-game 4-win system, creating NBA history.

What they defeated was last season's Western Conference champion, this season's regular season leader, and the Mavericks, the favorite to win the championship.

Therefore, the Warriors team is in full swing and their morale is high.

So this first game may not be easy to play.

Drip!

With the game open, Biedrins beat Milicic on a jumper, flicking the ball back to Warriors halfcourt.

According to Milicic's talent, height, wingspan, jumping... In fact, few people can beat him in the jump ball.

10 games, at least 8 times Milicic came out on top for the Grizzlies.

But tonight, opposite Biedrins was extraordinary.

If Christiansen's nickname "Birdman" is well-deserved, Biedrins' "fighter among whites" is also well-deserved.

This is a guy who can run and jump, looks thin, but is very powerful. He is obviously white, but he has black talent.

"The Beard" Baron Davis received the ball and immediately began to accelerate.

But just before that, Li Lei shouted loudly: "Return to defense! Quick!"

The Grizzlies were reminded and quickly returned to defense in an orderly manner.

Obviously, they have long been prepared.

The Warriors didn't care about these, after all, the entire league knows their characteristics.

Baron Davis kept on stepping, and rushed in directly against Tyronn Lue.

Compared to Deron Williams, Baron Davis is definitely an upgraded bulldozer with more thrust.

Moreover, this bulldozer is also equipped with a top-end engine, which is faster.

Before Tai Lue could react, he was squeezed by the bearded man.

With the space, the bearded man didn't hesitate at all, just pulled it up and shot.

Swish!
2: 0.

Sure enough, echoing Li Lei's conjecture, the Warriors had good morale and were in excellent form. They gave the Grizzlies a blow from the very beginning of the game.

The Grizzlies attack.

Tyronn Lue unhurriedly advanced to the frontcourt, and then handed the ball to Li Lei for disposal.

It seems that this guy is familiar with "On the Self-cultivation of a Tool Man" and has applied what he has learned.

Li Lei stood at the top of the arc.

Defending him was "Martial Saint" Stephen Jackson.

The two are too familiar.

In the past few years, both of them stayed in the East, and basically played against each other four times a year.

Jackson is the kind of player who can do everything and is very fierce. Even if you are just with you, the defense is also very good.

But, Li Lei even beat Kirilenko in the last round, so Jackson is naturally no problem.

However, instead of playing by himself, Li Lei chose to deal the cards because there were better opportunities on the field.
