The first point guard in basketball

Chapter 221 The Choice Between Substitutes

Adam Kiffe faced Duncan. Although his tonnage was good, his defensive awareness was too general. He was better than Augstagg in offense, but his offensive ability was completely useless for the Jazz. The Jazz didn't expect him to attack at all, because when he attacked, Malone could only defend.

But the current situation is really worrying for Sloan. Adam Kifee only scored one of three offenses, while Big Ben on the other end received a pass and hit him one by one. Thinking about it, Sloan's liver hurts.

Although the point difference was not widened, it was still 10 points away. Malone's offensive firepower in the second half of the game was obviously strengthened, but the offense of the Grizzlies did not weaken. Stockton still didn't make much progress against Xiao in the second half.

In terms of defensive efficiency of guards this season, Xiao Tian ranks ahead of Payton. These two guys can be called the nightmare of other point guards in the league, especially the former. Not only can he pester you to lose your state, but he can also score double-doubles as if nothing had happened. There is really nothing more embarrassing than this. Payton is said to be a glove, but in front of Xiao Tian, ​​​​this piece of brown sugar, it is nothing at all.

Stockton has sent out 7 assists so far, which is regarded as a normal performance, but if there is no interference from Xiao Tian, ​​he will send out more assists.The Grizzlies tormented the Jazz little by little, and finally won the Jazz without any thrills. This is the second time they have defeated the Jazz this season.

The moment Malone's game ended, he went directly to the player channel. The Grizzlies have too many bad memories in this arena.Unexpectedly, he lost again. Could it be that he was working in vain this season? His contract will expire next season, and he wants to renew his contract with the Jazz. Looking at it now, the Jazz can't see any hope of a championship in the short term. Last season was his most promising season, but it was ruined by that guy Xiao Tian.

27-2, the Grizzlies are still refreshing their own winning record, but although they won this game, there is a bad news. The dead light gun has relapsed, and it is estimated that he will have to rest for a while, because if he keeps playing, he will retire early.

Fortunately, the owner of the Grizzlies is not Griffith. If it was the Vancouver businessman, he would definitely let the dead light gun continue to work without hesitation, because only by winning continuously can more tickets be sold. As for the life and death of the players, does it have anything to do with him?
Death Light Gun will rest for 2 to 4 weeks, which means that he will not be able to participate in at least eight games in the next, so who will replace him has become a new choice.

The Grizzlies' bench has started to move around, especially Finley. Last season, he followed Xiao Tian to fly up. This season, because of the arrival of the dead light gun, he can only go to the bench to play his spare heat. This directly leads to a lot of data shrinkage, because there is a guy named Isiah Ryder in the bench lineup, and that guy is a person who never passes the ball.

Paul Westphal was also very worried. The dead light gun suddenly had to rest and recuperate, so the lineup had to be adjusted. Bring Finley up, but I really dare not compliment him on his defense.

The next game was against the Spurs. The Spurs played against the Trail Blazers in the previous game. As a result, McGrady blasted their third position. This guy scored 30 points, plus David Robinson's 28 points and 20 rebounds.

The names of Finley, Wilkins, and Ryder flashed back and forth in front of Paul Westphal. He didn't know who to choose. Paul Westphal felt that he still didn't want to. He pushed open the office door and prepared to go home, but the lights in the arena were on.

"Stephen, although you have many scoring methods, you are not good at these methods, so you want to get a bigger contract. You can build yourself into a defensive 3D. An existence similar to Scottie Pippen." Xiao Tian was practicing with Duncan, Da Ben, and Wu Sheng in the arena, because Wu Sheng wanted to go to the nightclub again today, and was dragged in by himself.

Defensive 3D?Wu Sheng licked his mouth, "It sounds very good, it seems very powerful."

Big Ben was still practicing free throws there, and Duncan shot on the other side with his eyes closed. As a result, Big Ben didn’t make as many free throws with his eyes open as Duncan did with his eyes closed. This made Big Ben couldn’t help throwing Duncan to the ground again, "You bastard is laughing at me again. No, you have to make up for my trauma. I heard that you seem to have bought a bottle of Latour, so just give me that bottle of wine as damages."

Hehe, it seems that only the bottle is left in Latu, and the bastard Jason drank all the wine.Of course Xiao Tian didn't say anything.

Seeing the players frolicking, Paul Westphal seemed to have an idea, and he had already decided on the candidate for the Spurs small forward.

The Spurs beat the Trail Blazers last game, which made Popovich feel elated, because McGrady, who he had placed high hopes on, finally began to slowly redeem his talent, but there is a problem, the playing time cannot be too long, otherwise, it will not be good for his spine.

However, after seeing the Grizzlies' starting lineup, Popovich was a little confused. The point guard, Xiao Tian, ​​hasn't changed. The shooting guard is Martial Saint Jackson. Isn't this guy a substitute? What does he mean by playing shooting guard?Small forward Jerry Stackhouse, power forward Duncan, center Ben.This is Wu Sheng's first start this season.

Finley's expression was a little gloomy. This year was his third year, and his four-year rookie contract expired next season, but the Grizzlies didn't seem to plan to right themselves.In this game, he thought he would be in the starting lineup, but what Finley didn't expect was that the one who made the starting lineup was Jackson, that reckless man. In Finley's eyes, Wu Sheng was just a reckless man.

"Michael, I think you should take advantage of the All-Stars or leave the Grizzlies next season. Like Theo, he has flourished in the Nets this season. Although the record of the Nets is not as good as that of the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies' record has nothing to do with you. Standing in the spotlight are Xiao Tian and Duncan. These two people, you can't even count as the third core."

Finley's agent started to confuse again. Of course, this is not a confuse, but to seek truth from facts. At present, Finley's status this season has really dropped a lot compared to last season.
