Chapter 433 Defense Expert
The offense of the Grizzlies is not outstanding in the league. The slow offensive rhythm makes their average number of rounds per game and average points per game rank in the middle and bottom of the league.They were able to achieve an excellent record, relying more on excellent defense.

Gasol has an excellent ability to support the ball. He made the ball in the high post and distributed it to Tony Allen, who was cut in the air, but the latter's finishing ability was not good. Under the interference of Amir Johnson, the ball went out of the basket .

Ying Xiong received the rebound and tried to push for a fast break, but the Grizzlies retreated quickly. Seeing that there was no chance, he gave Bayless a push.

Bayless holds the ball in a high position, picks and rolls with Bargnani, and then breaks through with the ball.

Bayless suddenly scored DeRozan, DeRozan received the ball and then broke through, broke into the inside line, faced Gasol for a layup, and was blocked by the opponent's slap.

Tony Allen had quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed the ball, and immediately passed it to Gay, but he miscalculated his passing ability and Ying Xiong's defensive coverage, and Ying Xiong faced him.

Ying Xiong took advantage of the moment when the other party was stunned, and directly pulled out his hand - but also missed.

Gasol took the rebound and handed it to Conley to advance safely.

After nearly 2 minutes of the opening game, neither team scored.Due to the slow play of the Grizzlies, the Raptors' offensive rhythm was abruptly slowed down, and the two teams invested a lot of energy in defense, which also caused their respective offensive efficiency to be low.

Gasol was positioned inside, and Bargnani was the only one.

Low-post defense is not Bargnani's forte, and he struggles to face opponents whose tonnage far exceeds his own.

DeRozan couldn't help defending. Gasol Jr. has a high basketball IQ and a very good passing awareness. He found the right time to distribute it to the open Tony Allen.

Tony Allen's shooting ability is not good, but his physical confrontation is good. I saw that he didn't hesitate after receiving the ball, and directly grabbed the ball and rushed inside, causing DeRozan's foul.

Tony Allen walked to the free throw line and made two free throws to help the team break the deadlock first.

Bayless dribbles slowly across half court.

Ying Xiong asked for the ball at the top of the arc on the right, and Tony Allen was harassing and confronting him.

Relying on his height and wingspan advantage, Ying Xiong jumped sideways to catch the ball and faced Tony Allen with his back.

Tony Allen defends a tall and long wing player like Yingxiong, and will lower his center of gravity. If you break through, he will keep harassing you to dribble, and keep fighting against you, disrupting your rhythm.In this case, even if you are taller than him, he can't interfere with your shooting, but if you lose your shooting rhythm, your shooting at high intensity may be affected.

Faced with Tony Allen's constant harassment, Ying Xiong calls Bargnani for a pick-and-roll.

Bargnani's pick-and-roll quality is really not high, Tony Allen is very cunning, quickly squeezed from his ribs, the pick-and-roll effect is too poor.

But Ying Xiong is not an ordinary person after all, just such a delay, he has already started at the same time, took a big step, and cut inward.

Tony Allen catches up again, and Ying Xiong has already led by more than half a body.

Facing Speights, Ying Xiong changed direction during the march, making it difficult for the opponent who kept retreating to defend effectively to adjust his defensive pace, and became extremely embarrassed.

Ying Xiong went to the Grizzlies penalty area, facing the "white bear" Gasol Jr., who was like a hill, took off with one foot, under the opponent's bear's paw, and passed the ball from his chest to Amir on the left side of the basket with one hand Johnson, the latter dunked the ball in with one hand after receiving the ball!

2:2!The Raptors finally scored 2 points.

Here, Gay faced the solo defense of Yingxiong, and changed direction in advance, trying to break through the opponent.The statures of the two were almost the same, but it was very difficult for Guy to break through this yellow man who was faster than himself.

Gay tried a few more times and couldn't break through. Seeing that the attack time was approaching, he made an emergency stop and made a jump shot...

Gay's height and wingspan, coupled with his bullet speed and high release point, the average player at the same position, let alone block shots, can't even touch a single hair.But at this moment, at the moment of his shot, he felt a huge disturbance.Almost instinctively, he raised his release point, not to adjust the crosshair, but to avoid the block.

The surprise in his heart made Guy hard to say. Ying Xiong has shined this season. Of course he knows that this is not the first time he has played against Ying Xiong. , it can even be said that compared to the last fight, it seems to have improved again...

In this case, his jump shot was naturally missed, and he almost missed it.

However, Speights had offensive rebounds and distributed the ball to Conley on the outside to reorganize.

The Grizzlies' offense was unusually slow, often running out of 24 seconds.Here, Gasol continued to position himself inside, and once again ate Bargnani alone after getting the ball.

Bargnani still couldn't prevent it, and was scored 2 points by Gasol's small inside hook.

Bayless dribbled the ball and gave it to DeRozan. DeRozan forced Gay and gave it to Bargnani on the outside.

Bargnani's 3-pointer - missed.Gasol stuck in his position, ready to accept the rebound.

At this moment, a yellow-skinned player wearing the number 25 of the Raptors fell from the sky. On Xiaojia's head, he used his jumping ability to grab the ball with one hand and forcibly dunked the ball into the basket!

The fans at the scene suddenly gasped. It's unreasonable for this goal not to be among the top five goals of the day!Why is this Ying Xiong so strong in terms of physical fitness and consciousness!

Here Gay singles Yingxiong again, this time he did not directly pull, but chose to force.He does not have the speed of the first step like McGrady and Grant Hill, and he cannot easily break through Yingxiong's defense.

Guy was so angry that he didn't care about it, and forced a layup - he missed, and the rebound was accepted by Ying Xiong.

Gay was out of balance and fouled when he counter-robbed.

The Raptors were attacking, and Ying Xiong shot to the basket again and gave Amir Johnson a second pass, but who knew that he suddenly had a buttery hand, was unstable in receiving the ball, and directly knocked the ball out of the baseline.

And the Grizzlies were not much better. Speights broke through 2 dribbles with the ball, which was a violation...

In the next game, the shooting percentages of both sides were very low, and the scores of both sides were slowly increasing, and no one could open the score all at once.

After the rotation lineups of both sides began to appear, the offensive efficiency rebounded.

When Ying Xiong came back in the second quarter, the score was 2:24, and the Grizzlies led by 25 point.

Barbosa dribbled the ball for halftime and gave it to DeRozan. DeRozan used the pick-and-roll to score the bottom corner.

Facing Tony Allen, who was sticking to him, Ying Xiong feigned a shot, and suddenly started to force his way up the line.

Tony Allen moved very timely, locked Yingxiong's foot, and prevented him from passing easily, and at the same time, he was careful to prevent him from changing direction and going to the bottom line.

Ying Xiong dribbled the ball behind his back with his right hand, and at the same time moved his center of gravity to the left rear. After receiving the ball, he stopped and shot a jumper.

Tony Allen seems to have been prepared.A hard slice that cuts the ball out of the sideline.
