Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 363 Marathon Twin Bears

The first clean big cap in the opening blew up the FedEx Arena, and Mr. Tony's defense has never disappointed.

"MEM, 9!"

"MEM, 9!"

MEM is the abbreviation of the Grizzlies, and No. 9 Tony Allen seems to be the unyielding spiritual totem of Memphis.

Amid the deafening cheers, Murray propped his right arm on the floor, his gaze was a little dull.

The referee asked him if he could continue the game. Murray recovered and nodded, saying that he just needed to take a break.

Yuan Qingshan hastily came over to pull him up, patted his head and said: "The timing of passing the ball was not chosen well just now, that's my problem, don't be discouraged."

Murray knew that what Yuan Qingshan said on purpose was just to comfort himself, so he nodded again.

Not far away, Thomas Jr. and Tony Allen clapped their hands hard and made a snap.

The big screen just cut to this scene, and the fans applauded thunderously.

Barnes went to the sideline to serve, and Murray subconsciously looked at Yuan Qingshan, as if he was waiting for Yuan Qingshan to give orders.

Yuan Qingshan smiled at him: "I leave it to you."

After speaking, he ran to the weak side and used his body to hold Tony Allen behind him.

Thomas Jr. was ignited by his teammate's block, and stood in front of Murray, constantly interfering in the passing route.

The 175-centimeter Thomas looked like a kid clamoring for candy in front of Murray.

Barnes completely pretended that Thomas Jr. didn't exist, and lobbed the ball high to Murray blankly.

Little Thomas jumped up vigorously, but unfortunately he didn't even touch the shadow of the ball.

After Murray got the ball, he grabbed it with one hand, raised it high, and looked around, observing the position of his teammates.

The black bear Zach Randolph yelled at Thomas Jr. inside: "He stopped the ball, steal it!"

Thomas looked at the position of the ball, and then compared his height, feeling depressed.

What to grab?Can you lend me a ladder?

Murray was woken up by Randolph's voice, and took the ball to the top of the arc.

Little Thomas stood in front of Murray, trying to block his way, but unfortunately his body was too thin, and Murray forcibly pushed him away.

"Who can this guy guard against?" Tony Allen frowned, complained in his heart, and then ran over to attack.

In his perception, Murray is a rookie, and he must not be able to handle double teams.

It should be easy to steal the ball from him. After grabbing the ball, he can directly throw it to Ennis for a fast break. This is Ennis' specialty.

Yes, just do it!

However, Tony Allen thought too much.

When he rushed towards Murray, Yuan Qingshan was emptied and immediately started to run towards 45 degrees.

Murray calculated the position of Yuan Qingshan in his mind, and suddenly hoisted the ball over the heads of Thomas Jr. and Tony Allen.

Boom, the beautiful "people arrive at the ball".

The orange "three-point champion" skill was activated, and with the sound of hitting the net, Yuan Qingshan hit the first ball in the opening game.

"What are you doing here?" Little Thomas' facial features twisted together, and he spread his hands and complained to Tony Allen angrily.

"Mine, mine." Tony Allen didn't defend himself. Just now, he really misjudged Murray's ability to break through the double-team, which gave Yuan Qingshan an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Coach Fizdale of the Grizzlies pushed his iconic black-rimmed glasses helplessly, thinking what happened this season, the atmosphere in the team has changed drastically, and even Tony Allen, who has always been prudent, has become impetuous. This kind of mistake was not common in the past.

Is it because of Conley leaving the team, or because of Thomas Jr. joining?
Fizdale has no answer either, maybe only time will tell. If there is no hope of hitting the playoffs this season, then it's better to just play badly.

In the offensive round of the Grizzlies, the black and white bears slowly ran to take their positions, and the inside line became crowded for a while.

Whiteside has met his opponent tonight. Pau Gasol is not as fast as him, but he has an overwhelming advantage in terms of tonnage and shooting range. Whether it is back to the basket or facing the basket, Whiteside is very difficult to deal with.

The black bear Randolph was stronger than Towns by more than two laps. As long as he stood his fat body towards the edge of the penalty area, Towns would not be able to squeeze in.

When Conley was there, he was very good at mobilizing the black and white bears. At that time, the Grizzlies' inside tactics were flying, and the average team and these two guys couldn't afford it.

Once the Grizzlies suppress the rhythm and play positional battles, the opponents basically suffer, even the Warriors are no exception. Among their only nine losses last season, there was one for the Grizzlies.

However, after the offseason change, the Grizzlies no longer have the engine to connect the team.

Never a traditional pass-oriented point guard, Thomas made it clear to coach Fizdale on the first day of training camp: Gasol and Randolph were responsible for pushing opponents out of the paint and creating space for him when he was about to drive, and rebounding for him when he was about to shoot.

Fizdale conveyed Thomas' request to the Black and White Bears, Gasol Jr. remained silent, and Randolph directly smashed the round glass table in the locker room.

The line of sight returned to the field.

Like a white whirlwind, Thomas Jr. soared to the Lakers' backcourt in the blink of an eye.

"Hey, Xhaka, don't stand stupidly, go and protect the rebound." Thomas Jr. stopped at the top of the arc, dribbling the ball with his right hand, and raised his left hand to point towards the penalty area.

Randolph's nose was going to be crooked, but he had to follow Thomas Jr.'s instructions to get stuck on the rebound, because the guy's shooting percentage was really unsatisfactory.

Yuan Qingshan was entangled in a high position by Tony Allen, and simply waited to see how Murray would deal with it.

Thomas Jr. crossed the dribble, suddenly withdrew a small step, and made a quick pull-up jumper.

He can average 175 points per game with a height of 28 centimeters, which is indeed a bit of a weight.

The shot was shot so suddenly that Murray reacted a bit too late, realizing that something was wrong, and when he jumped up, the basketball had already flown over his head.

Randolph cursed and locked his position, keeping Downs firmly behind him.

Then I thought in my heart, after grabbing the rebound for a while, I absolutely can't hand it over to that arrogant little man. If I don't have a chance to directly attack the basket, I will hand it over to Gasol.

Gasol's position is not as good as Randolph's, so he is responsible for blocking Whiteside and clearing the way for his teammates to grab rebounds.

Randolph and Towns took off at the same time, and Towns felt that there was a thick earth wall in front of him, which separated the basketball in mid-air from a distance, and he could not touch it.

Boom, Randolph's huge palm grabbed the ball and stuffed it directly to Gasol Jr. after landing.

Gasol made a fadeaway jumper and hit 2 points.

Randolph grinned and patted Gasol's head, while Thomas Jr. was cursing in the distance: "You are two fools, so what if you hit the shot, you are still one point behind, this ball should be passed to me and continue to shoot three-pointers, and you must shoot with momentum!"

Both Murray and Yuan Qingshan heard Thomas Jr.'s words. Murray looked surprised and wondered why such a person still existed, while Yuan Qingshan glanced at him, and then continued to run forward.

The first round of the opening was the epitome of the whole game. The Grizzlies played chaotically, and the inside twin towers couldn't get the ball at all.

Want to attack?Okay, I can only pick up the remaining rebounds from Thomas Jr.'s shots.

Under the leadership of Thomas Jr., the black and white two bears ran back and forth over and over again, turning into a marathon double bear. Both mentally and physically, they were on the verge of collapse.

During the timeout of the fourth quarter, Fizdale took the initiative to hand Randolph a bottle of Gardner, and Randolph turned his head arrogantly as if he didn't see it.

Fizdale knew that the black bear had lost his temper, and he was complaining that he let Thomas do whatever he wanted.

But what can he do? The management replaced Thomas Jr. just to sell tickets. As for winning or losing, it has long been out of the scope of consideration.

At the end of the game, the Lakers won by 26 points.

The Grizzlies team took 83 shots, and Thomas Jr. took 33 shots alone. The on-site commentator criticized him from the inside out.

In the words of Mark Jackson, the Lakers once had a person who was so obsessed with shots.

but.

Although that man is a bit tough, he can lead the team to win at least.

With such a comparison, I simply don't know how taller I am than Thomas Jr..
