Chapter 326
After the Bulls game, the Grizzlies defeated the Raptors and the Warriors successively, which also won five consecutive victories.

The current record of the Grizzlies is 25 wins and 13 losses, and they are now ranked fifth in the Western Conference.

Since Gasol's return, the team has been running in very well, and now the Grizzlies are advancing by leaps and bounds, which can be said to have attracted the attention of many fans.

On January 1th, at 20:9 p.m., under the anticipation of the fans, the Grizzlies challenged the Seattle SuperSonics away.

Because the opponent is big, and the bottom one in the West, everyone thinks that the Grizzlies must win 6 consecutive victories.

However, the Grizzlies use their strength to tell the fans that we are not rare!
Of course, this is nonsense. In fact, in this game, Ray Allen and Lewis, the two key players, did not perform at a super level.

Even Rashard Lewis, in the matchup with Pau Gasol, is a bit blown.

But the terrible thing is that the overall supersonic speed is too accurate.

Luke Ridnour, the point guard, as a player who entered the league in 03, can be said to be relatively poor.

And the opponent doesn't have much organizational skills. Although Ray Allen can do it, it's just average, and he usually plays a little bit to break through and score the ball.

So from the very beginning, without any organization, the Supersonics opened the outside line directly and scored a lot of fairy goals.

When the referee's whistle sounded and the first quarter ended, the Grizzlies trailed by 28 points 34 to 6.

Back from the break, the second quarter started, and the Grizzlies head coach Nelson directly sent the running and bombing lineup to chase points.

Lu Wei, Yang Zhan, Posey, Warrick, Swift.

Conversely, the Supersonics have a normal rotation, and the lineup sent by the opposing head coach is .

Point guard: Earl Watson, shooting guard: Ray Allen, small forward: Damien Wilkins, power forward: Nick Collison, center: Johan Petro.

In this duel between lineups, the Grizzlies didn't take advantage of it, because the opponent's touch seemed to be contagious, and they were all right.

Among them, the most outstanding one is Wilkins, who entered the league in 04 and was originally known for his shooting.

In the future, this buddy has no ball to play, and he also went to CBA for further studies, but today his hand feels better, and even Posey can't stop him.

In this way, in the second quarter of the duel, the Grizzlies still lost to the opponent by 3 points despite running and bombing.

In the following time, the feel of the Sonics team did not show a significant downward trend, and Nelson, who was sitting on the bench, had no choice.

In the end, the Memphis Grizzlies lost 98 to 113 to the Seattle SuperSonics.

杨战出场39分钟，19投10中，三分球3中2，罚球2中2，拿下24分7助攻2篮板1盖帽的数据。

To say that the most troublesome thing is Yang Zhan, who worked so hard for the whole game, and in the end he was not even qualified to be a background board.

Who made Gasol the leader of the empty hacking group!

对方出场42分钟，17投11中，罚球8中8，拿下30分10篮板1助攻2盖帽。

After the game, Yang Zhan and Ray Allen also communicated. After all, this is also a man with the other's magic skills, and the relationship between the two is not bad.

It can be heard in the short conversation that Ray Allen does not want to stay in the Sonics, and there are two reasons for this.

The first and most important reason is that he doesn't want to be in the belly, he wants to go to a strong team, and he wants to compete for the championship.

Ray Allen has been in the Sonics for five years, and he can't see any hope at all.

Secondly, the owner of the Supersonics wants to sell the team. This news has actually been spread by the media, but it has not been confirmed.

But Yang Zhan knows this is true, and if the team is sold, there will be too many uncertain factors, and Ray Allen's road to winning the championship will be even more elusive.

In fact, Yang Zhan still wanted to play with the opponent, but he also understood that the Grizzlies did not have the bargaining chip to deal with it.

After the press conference, the Grizzlies boarded a flight back to Memphis under the leadership of Nelson.

Thinking about it carefully, in fact, the loss of this game is also a good thing for the Grizzlies.

Because there are too many young people in the team, the oldest is the 28-year-old Swift, so the players are praised by the media.

It's easy to float!

The reason why the Supersonics open the outside line is that the opponent's good touch must account for most of it, but there are also certain reasons for the Grizzlies' inactive defense.

On January 1, after a day off, at 22:9 am the next day, the Grizzlies ushered in a challenge from the Charlotte Bobcats at home.

After the interview and shooting warm-up, the referee blew the whistle, and the game officially started, with players from both sides appearing on the field one after another.

The regular starting lineup sent by Nelson, point guard: Yang Zhan, shooting guard: Roy, small forward: Battier, power forward: Gasol, center: Chandler.

The starting lineup sent by the Bobcats is, point guard: Raymond Felton, shooting guard: Matt Carroll, small forward: Gerald Wallace, power forward: Emeka Okafor, center: Primoz Brezek.

The opponent's real strengths are the third and fourth positions, and the Grizzlies are right up there.

There are Battier and Posey in the third position. No matter how strong Okafor is in the fourth position, he can't match Gasol's dominance.

And others are basically getting stronger and stronger. Okafor is a bit of a reverse development. In 04, he entered the league as the No. [-] pick.

In his rookie season, he averaged 15+10 double-doubles per game, which is definitely worthy of his status.

But the following two years got worse and worse. The main reason is that his style of play has not improved, and more and more people study him.

As for Gerald Wallace, this player is famous for his defense, and his offense is relatively sharp.

But with Battier and Posey taking turns obstructing him, the opponent's strength could not be fully displayed.

And the opponent's shooting guard Matt Carroll, a player who entered the league undrafted in 03, has a very accurate shot.

Among them, the three-point shooting rate reached 40.00%. This is the advantage of the opponent.

But he is a colander on the defensive end. It is very easy for Roy to hit Carroll single-handedly with the ball. In many cases, after shaking from side to side twice, he will pass the opponent directly with one acceleration.

Feld on the point guard line is only 1 meters tall. The absolute size advantage between the two cannot be smoothed out by the opponent's weight.

So Yang Zhan played very easily, especially when he fell into the low post for post-up singles, using his height and long arms, it was almost a one-on-one hit.

Someone double-teams Yang Zhan and doesn't force it, because the pass is basically an open position.

After all, there must be a reason for the fish belly. At least the Bobcats are very inactive in changing defenses.
