Chapter 100 Unstoppable Davis

When Yang Zhan came off the field and returned to the bench, head coach Nelson also took the tactical board to Yang Zhan's side.

"how do you feel?"

"It's a bit of a struggle! Both sides are out of tactics! Fortunately, the score has been stalemate." Yang Zhan didn't expect Nelson to ask this question, but after thinking about it, Yang Zhan still expressed his true thoughts.

After hearing Yang Zhan's words, Nelson didn't have any facial reaction, and then he said: "This style of play will change after the first quarter!"

These words made Yang Zhan thoughtful, but he couldn't explain why. Looking at Yang Zhan's appearance, Nelson continued to speak.

"Garnett is an all-round fighter. He can help the team by more than scoring. At the same time, Gasol's touch cannot last forever."

As if to affirm Nelson's remarks, Gasol on the field turned around and hit the iron with a hook again, which was already two irons.

"There are also some similarities between their lineup and ours, that is, they have organizational skills inside and outside. Once they are in operation, the team's mistakes will be greatly reduced."

"But their lineup is short on the outside. Ricky Davis, who is 1.98, plays small forward. This means that after the second quarter, they will focus on the outside attack."

"And the focus of the ball will shift from Garnett to Ricky Davis, and I will focus on connecting defense."

"In this game, we rested Eddie Jones, the team's best perimeter defender, so what I need you to do is, when Davis starts to attack, your scoring can overwhelm him."

When Nelson finished all the analysis, Yang Zhan finally understood, which reminded him of the evaluation of Garnett by many experts and media.

Roughly speaking, Garnett can be said to be the most versatile power forward in history!

But in this heyday of power forwards, there are a few guys who happen to have more major efforts than Garnett, and they're all in the West.

He is not as good as pseudo-power forward Duncan than stability, he is not as good as driver than shooting, he is not as good as Stoudemire than explosive, and he is not as good as pseudo-center Gasol than support.

In the discussion between Yang Zhan and Nelson, at the end of the first quarter, the score was 24 to 28, and the Timberwolves led by 4 points.

Gasol scored 10 points, 1 rebound and 1 assist in the first quarter.

Garnett scored 8 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist in the first quarter.

Looking at Garnett's stats, Yang Zhan felt bad. Everything else was fine, but what about the rebounds!

Although it is a power forward player card, but this is still 80-89 ability value. When Yang Zhan was thinking wildly, Nelson had already started to arrange the running and bombing lineup.

On the Grizzlies tactical board, Yang Zhan, Lu Wei, Atkins, James Posey, Lorenzen White.

In this lineup, Nelson intends to let Yang Zhan play the point guard when attacking and the small forward when defending. There is no way, Lu Wei and Atkins are too short.

Yang Zhan has no opinion on this, because his eyes are getting brighter and brighter as he looks at Lorenzen White, who came off the bench because of dealing with Garnett.

In the end, when he was about to play, Yang Zhan walked up to White, "Hey! Brother, you will get two boards for me in a while, and I will pass the ball to you more. You score points, and I score boards. How about it."

This made Nelson, who was about to sit down after setting up the tactics, but heard Yang Zhan's voice, almost shorted his ass.

Nima!Is swiping data so aboveboard?

The key is that White agreed. He thought he had no means of attack, and most of the points he wanted were due to Yang Zhan's flying cakes.

At this time, Nelson, who couldn't stand it anymore, kicked Yang Zhan onto the field, so be yourself!

As the Grizzlies played, the Timberwolves followed suit!

Their lineup is, point guard: Ricky Davis, shooting guard: Rashad McCants, small forward: Justin Reid, power forward: Marco Jaric.Center: Eddie Griffin.

The Grizzlies have one big and four small lineups, and the Timberwolves have five forwards in this lineup!
The Grizzlies took the first ball first, and the whole team started to speed up when Yang Zhan held the ball!
Just after the half-court dribble, Yang Zhan, who saw the opportunity, hit the ground and passed the ball directly into the hands of Atkins who threw off the defense with speed and cut inside. The latter turned around and made a layup after receiving the ball!

Assist +1, happy, the feeling of having the ball is good!
The Timberwolves' offense also accelerated, and Ricky Davis passed the ball long to Justin Reid, who was 45 degrees open on the right.

The latter made a three-point shot after catching the ball, but it was too short. The basketball hit the front and bounced back, and it just landed in Yang Zhan's arms, hehe!Rebound +1.

Yang Zhan turned around, just about to play a defensive counterattack, just in time to see Lorenzen White who had not had time to return to the defense, and then Yang Zhan sent a long pass just after halftime.

The latter caught the ball and smashed the dunk violently with both hands. Those who didn't know thought Garnett was standing opposite him!

Ricky Davis pushed forward with the ball again, went beyond the three-point line, and used his height to pass Lu Wei with one step. Facing the inside, White turned around and made a successful throw!
Conversely, Yang Zhan also used the rhythm to pass Davis, burst to the free throw line, and then distributed it to Lu Wei who came out of the bottom corner.

The latter made a point in the face of the supplementary defense, and then made a breakthrough for a layup.

The Timberwolves had the ball, and Davis used the pick-and-roll to break through with the ball and give it to Rashad McCants on the outside. The latter made a three-pointer and hit the iron.

The Grizzlies made a quick break and counterattacked. Yang Zhan passed halftime to Atkins, who was the fastest, and the latter made an overhead basket.

As his teammates continue to fight, Davis gradually began to fight alone, but his current state is the same as that of Gasol in the first quarter.

The hand feels surprisingly good, and Lu Wei can't stop Davis's offense in terms of defensive ability or height gap.

However, the Grizzlies played more unitedly here, with two small men at the same time, running and bombing very fast, constantly hitting the basket.

In just 2 minutes, Yang Zhan's assists have risen to 5, but even so, the score on the field is still 34 to 34.

This time you will know how good Davis feels, and he has basically never lost in singles.

About 3 minutes into the second quarter, Atkins cut inside and caused a foul by Eddie Griffin.

And just as Atkins was at the free throw line, Timberwolves coach Dwayne Casey replaced Garnett.

This move made Nelson frivolous on the sidelines. He knew that the Timberwolves were going to implement their tactics in advance.

However, this lineup has a way to break the game. Before the start of the second quarter, Nelson told Yang Zhan.

Atkins missed the second goal and was grabbed by Garnett who had just played, and then quickly handed the ball to Davis.

The latter ran all the way after receiving the ball. Facing Yang Zhan who was chasing after him, Davis took a step back and made a mid-range shot.

Because of the inertia of the hurricane all the way, although the ball was shot with a retreat step, it was already floating when it took off.

The ball passed through Yang Zhan's fingertips, brush!After falling into the basket, the cheers of the fans increased instantly. This fairy ball faced Yang Zhanjin, which really boosted his momentum!
Although Yang Zhan has facial expressions, he has already been criticized in his heart!

After this goal, the Grizzlies' offense encountered a bottleneck, not because of Davis's goal, but because of Garnett.

The two short point guards of the Grizzlies are both powerful finishers when facing Eddie Griffin, but they all become hat boys when facing Garnett.

And it's not that Yang Zhan doesn't know how to break the game, that is outside, as long as he shoots three-pointers away from Garnett, there is nothing he can do.

But it's a pity that the outside touch of the Grizzlies today is like the weather of the Timberwolves. Even Yang Zhan still doesn't open.

On the other hand, the Timberwolves have Garnett on the inside defense, and Davis on the outside as Pierce, feeling invincible.

This kind of comparison makes the momentum of the Timberwolves continue to increase, and just when they are about to reach the peak, just when they want to get rid of the score, just at .
Nelson called a timeout.

Timberwolves players.
Timberwolves fans.
Timberwolves coach.
