Chapter 253
The Grizzlies attacked first, and Yang Zhan came to the frontcourt without the ball. This time he did not choose to fall to the low post, but brought it up to play a pick-and-roll for Roy.

At this time, Nelson made tactical adjustments while resting in the locker room. The original Yang Zhan must not be familiar with this style of play, but it is different now.

Yang Zhan went straight down after the pick-and-roll and changed defense, although he didn't show any outstanding performance in the second quarter due to double-teaming.

But the Mavericks felt the ferocity of Yang Zhan in the first quarter, so when he went down, he immediately attracted a lot of attention.

Seeing this situation, Roy at the top of the arc held the ball all the way to the basket. At this time, the defensive attention on the opposite side was focused on Roy again.

If at this time, he distributes the ball to Yang Zhan, then this attack will basically be stable.

But Roy's current organizational skills simply cannot support him to score again, so he can only choose to force a layup in the face of Dampier's defense.

Boom!Strike the iron!

For Dampier, since Cuban can give him a 7000 million contract, it proves that he is not useless, at least he still has something in defense.

However, Yang Zhan, who had been following up at this time, rushed in to grab an offensive rebound. This position was very far from the basket, so Yang Zhan directly chose a second offensive small throw.

brush!Hit!

Conversely, when the Mavericks attacked, the opponent made only one tactical adjustment during the break, and that was to increase the speed.

So the little general doesn't just eat what Nelson left behind, at least the current Yang Zhan really can't keep up with Harris.

This led to a situation where Roy was defending one and two in the frontcourt. He first went to defend Harris who was approaching the basket.

Seeing this, Harris did not force a layup, but passed the ball to Jason Terry in the bottom corner on the left.

The latter obviously had time to adjust when he received the ball, but Terry chose to make a direct three-pointer. After all, his personal rhythm is like this.

brush!Hit!

The Grizzlies' offense is still a pick-and-roll tactic, but the tacit understanding is not in place. Roy's current organizational ability is also a problem.

So the pick-and-roll effect this time is still not very ideal. Although Roy broke through and passed Harris, he faced Nowitzki's double-team during the march, and pulled the bar for a layup and missed the basket.

Yang Zhan rushed to grab the offensive rebound and failed, and the Mavericks played a fast break counterattack. This time Roy also did not go back under the basket, causing Harris to layup directly in the frontcourt.

Time passed, and the time on the court had reached about 4 minutes. With another fast break and counterattack, the Mavericks assisted Nowitzki to hit a three-pointer at the top of the arc.

The direct point difference between the two sides was not only caught up, but the Grizzlies were also one point behind the opponent. At this time, Nelson called a short timeout to the referee.

After the personnel adjustment, the lineup Nelson sent was Lu Wei, Roy, Posey, Battier, and Yang Zhan.

This lineup is already going to extremes. It stands to reason that it is only the third quarter, but the opponent's touch in this quarter is so good that Nelson has to do it.

The Mavericks feel hot, so there is no need to make adjustments, but from the first half of the mouth, it has become a real mouth.

At the end of the timeout, the two sides played again. The Grizzlies first attacked Lu Wei and took the ball to the frontcourt, and then gave the ball to Yang Zhan who was at the free throw line.

Everyone knows this tactic very well, because it was the conventional tactic last season, except that Gasol was replaced by Yang Zhan.

It's just that after this pick-and-roll, it's useless. Who made the Mavericks themselves a master of the pick-and-roll, so they are more familiar with this aspect.

But even if the tactics are not played out, all four of them have baskets, so the space is widened.

At this time, Yang Zhan straightened his body back, facing Dampier's defense, he accelerated and passed the opponent directly.

Seeing this, others wanted to come over to defend, but their positions were too far away, so Yang Zhan directly dunked with both hands after entering the basket.

It took a lot of effort this time, and Yang Zhan just took advantage of it to vent all his previous depression.

In turn, the Mavericks attacked, and Harris was still speeding up after receiving the ball, but this time they played not easily.

Man-to-man defense, without any loss of position, although Yang Zhan's current speed is not as fast as that of the outside line, but it is much faster than that of Dampier.

The fast break can only fall into positional warfare, and Harris went to the frontcourt and gave the ball to Nowitzki.

Facing Battier's defense, the latter took advantage of his height advantage at a 45° angle on the right and directly chose to make a three-pointer.

Boom!Strike the iron!

Yang Zhan is not very good at protecting backcourt rebounds, but he is good at blocking positions. At this time, Battier took advantage of it and picked up a rebound angrily.

After receiving the pass, Lu Wei also launched a fast break. After all, this is the case in the lineup, but this little brother's passing ability is not good, so he didn't give it even if there was a chance.

Yang Zhan came to the front court and held the ball at the top of the arc. He found that he and Lu Wei are in the same problem now. He saw the opportunity but dared not give it.

At this time, Battier transferred directly to the top of the arc after using the pick-and-roll, and Yang Zhan handed the ball to the opponent.

Immediately a pick-and-roll on the spot stopped Nowitzki, who was following Battier, and the latter directly chose a three-pointer when he had an open opportunity.

brush!Hit!

On the contrary, the Mavericks attacked, and when Josh Howard went to the frontcourt, he only got a slight chance to open up.

But he didn't hesitate, and instead directly chose to shoot a three-pointer. At this time, Posey's chasing has seriously disturbed him, but the latter still made a hit because he felt good.

When Lu Wei came to the front court, he gave the ball to Yang and started running without the ball after the battle. It may be to prevent breakthroughs, so Dampier retreated deeply this time.

Seeing that his teammates couldn't run out of a good position, Yang Zhan, who is currently near the free throw line, raised his mid-range shot with a wide open opportunity.

brush!Hit!

Although the current Yang Zhan has been "transformed" by the system, but in the middle distance, he is no different from the original one.

The Mavericks were fast-breaking, and Jason Terry was really sloppy. Although he didn't have any chances, when he received the ball, he immediately stopped outside the three-point line and shot.

brush!Hit!

The ball was already very difficult. Terry used jets to celebrate when he retreated, and the fans at the scene cheered loudly.

However, this beautiful atmosphere was broken before it lasted long. Yang Zhan, who was at the free throw line, gave the ball to Roy who came out of the bag.

Although the latter didn't get rid of Terry, but at a 45° angle on the left, he didn't hesitate to catch the ball at all, and jumped up and made a three-pointer.

brush!Hit!

Although the way of scoring is different, it can be regarded as a change on top of the opponent.
