Mall page (insufficient points, not unlocked...)
Lin Bai opened the book of coaches, clicked on the [Basketball Pope Game] page, and found that except for some changes in points and statistics, nothing else had changed. It seems that it is really not easy to get the qualification of the basketball pope .

Fortunately, although the Long March is difficult, it has made a good start now, with three wins and one loss in four games, it shouldn't be a shame, right?
Withdrew from the coaching book, Lin Bai hurriedly flew back to Cleveland with the Cavaliers. The next game will come soon, back to back at home, facing the challenge of the Memphis Grizzlies.

The young Memphis Grizzlies are notoriously bad at the bottom of the team. Since the establishment of the team in 1995, they have never made the playoffs. Because of the poor record and low popularity, in 2001, the Grizzlies decided to Moved the home court to Memphis.

However, when they came to Memphis, the Grizzlies did not change because of this, and the record still did not improve. In the 2001-2002 season, the record was 23 wins and 59 losses; in the 2002-2003 season, the record was 28 wins and 54 losses.

This season, after a year of coaching by head coach Hubie Brown, the Grizzlies have gradually improved their record. The current record is 6 wins and 8 losses. , With only 1.5 wins, the Grizzlies with strong desires have strong ambitions and want to achieve amazing results this season.

The inner and outer core of the Grizzlies are Pau Gasol and Jason Williams. Other players are not to be feared. However, the Cavaliers must guard against the head coach of the Grizzlies. His ten-man rotation system concept is very thoughtful , The lineup building is also gradually taking shape.

November 2003, 11, Cleveland Quicken Loans Arena.

Before the game, Lin Bai looked through the coaching staff's distribution of the basic information on the starters the Grizzlies had lined up as usual.

Jason Williams, nicknamed 'White Chocolate', participated in the NBA Draft in 1998 and was picked by the Kings with the seventh pick in the first round. He is 185CM tall and weighs 87KG. He is mainly a point guard.

Jason's style of play is very gorgeous, he is good at performing, and his passing is pleasing to the eye. He is very popular with fans. However, because of his personal style of play and lack of practicality, his performance on the field is not stable. In order to achieve results, the Kings Trade him to the Grizzlies for Mike Bibby.

Passing the ball behind the back and super long three-pointers are the hallmarks of Jason Williams, and his offensive strength is not bad.

In the 02-03 season, he averaged 31.6 minutes per game and contributed 12.1 points and 8.3 rebounds. This season, he averaged 11.5 points and 7.2 assists per game. Lots of fancy performances.

Defense Because of physical fitness, personal defensive strength is not strong.

Mike Miller served as a shooting guard. In the 2000 draft season, he was selected by the Magic with the fifth overall pick in the first round. He is a swingman with a height of 203cm and a weight of 99KG.

The style of the game is unpretentious, with a soft touch, and is good at shooting three-pointers.

In the 02-03 season, he averaged 15.6 points and 5.2 rebounds per game. His strength is not bad. This season, the average playing time per game has decreased, but he can still contribute 12.1 points and 4.2 rebounds per game. He is a powerful player.

The defense is above and below the average level, the style of play is calm, and he is not easy to make mistakes. He is a reliable player with good offense and defense.

The small forward is James Posey, who entered the NBA in 1998. He is 203cm tall and weighs 98KG. He is a swingman with a strong style of play and good offensive strength. He is good at three-pointers and breakthrough layups. He is a famous 3D player. .

In the 02-03 season, he averaged 14.1 points and 5.8 rebounds per game, which was a good performance.

In the 03-04 season, he joined the Grizzlies. Starting from defense, he can still average 14.3 points and 5.1 rebounds per game. He is a good team player with both offense and defense.

What he is famous for is not his offensive ability, but his strong defensive ability, experienced defensive experience and very accurate judgment. He can be regarded as the best defensive role player in the league. Waiting for the players, don't worry too much.

Paul Gasol was the No. 2001 pick in the 213 draft season. He is the star of the Grizzlies. He is 113cm tall and weighs [-]KG. ability.

In his rookie season, he averaged 36.7 minutes per game and was able to score 17.6 points and 8.9 rebounds. In the 02-03 season, he averaged 19 points and 8.8 rebounds per game, and his strength continued to improve.

This season, his performance is still stable, averaging 20.5 points and 7.7 rebounds per game, with unlimited potential, and he is the first scorer of the Grizzlies.

Gasol's offense is outstanding. With his height and long arms, he is good at rebounding and blocking shots. However, his style of play is a bit soft, his body is very thin, and his confrontation ability is insufficient.

The center position of the Grizzlies is relatively weak, and it is played by Jack Chakalidis. He is 218cm tall and weighs 129KG. He entered the NBA in 2000. He has average physical fitness and poor scoring ability. This season, he can only contribute on average per game. 5.1 points, 3.9 rebounds.

Lack of jumping ability, full floor flow, slow movement, insufficient ability to protect the frame, is a blue-collar inside player.

Looking at the lineup alone, the Grizzlies are not a big threat to the Cavaliers. Both sides are fighting back to back, and neither side has an advantage in physical strength.

Before the game, media reporters were not optimistic about the Grizzlies winning the Cavaliers' home upset, but predicted that the Cavaliers would beat the Grizzlies without bloodshed.

In the Cavaliers locker room, head coach Paul Silas is announcing tonight's starting lineup, "Point guard LeBron James, shooting guard Ricky Davis, small forward Ira Newbell, power forward Michael Stewart, center Zajunas Ilgauskas."

Diop and Kapono have been the starters in the last few games, and their performances are not satisfactory to the head coach. Therefore, Paul Silas continued to adjust the lineup to find a player who can replace Boozer. , and his performance has been ups and downs recently, and he was also kicked out of the starting lineup.

In response to the lack of height of the Grizzlies point guard, natural height misalignment, and the weakness of insufficient inside frame protection, the Cavaliers' point forward and the combination of internal and external tactics lead the team's offense from the outside.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, after the two sides warmed up briefly, the starting players of both sides came to the middle circle of the court, ready to start the jump ball.

Ilgauskas VS Pau Gasol! !

Although Pau Gasol is only 213cm tall, his wingspan is 233cm. He has excellent jumping, nimble and agile feet, and solid skills.

However, in the jump ball, Ilgauskas's height stands out from the crowd, as if standing on an unfathomably high city wall, overlooking everyone.

With just one jump, he beat Gasol and put the basketball in James' hands.

The Cavaliers get the offensive ball! !
James's [-]-meter sprint speed was terrifying, and he was unstoppable. He rushed to the frontcourt in three steps and two steps in parallel.

Drive straight into the penalty area, pull the ball up in two steps, and pass Jason Williams' defense with a European step.

Seeing that James can calmly stage an easy dunk, unexpectedly, James just tossed the basketball and sent it into the air.

When Jason Williams turned to look back, he saw Ricky Davis following like a whirlwind.

With two steps and two feet, he took off step by step, held the ball in the air with both hands, and smashed the basketball into the basket hard.

2 to 0! !
At the beginning of the game, the Cavaliers showed an amazing offensive momentum and took a temporary lead.

All the fans in the audience, seeing the wonderful goal, rained applause, and the cheers were like thunder, almost toppling the roof of the entire arena.

"Great pass!"

"Excellent buckle!!"

Back on defense, James and Ricky Davis gave each other thumbs up and praised each other.

"Just at the beginning of the game, James and Ricky completed a wonderful aerial connection!" McBrin praised loudly: "This time, the attack can be rated as the top five goals!!"

The groom Albert nodded, and then said: "James' physical talent is too inhuman, and his speed is almost unstoppable, but this is not what I want to praise, what I want to praise is that he can clearly Completed the dunk easily under the basket but chose to send the basketball to the sky, the vision is really broad!!"

McBrin went on to say: "The Grizzlies' offense, Jason Williams' frontcourt organization, came, and when he passed the ball behind him, he drew the defender's eyes. Will Mike Miller return the ball?

Wrong guess, no shot, he chose to pass the ball to the inside..."

Offensive and defensive transition, Jason Williams dribbled to the frontcourt, facing James' defense, a cross dribble seemed to break through to the right.

Unexpectedly, people passed the ball, but Jason Williams dribbled directly behind his back and passed the basketball to Mike Miller on the left.

The fancy and gorgeous pass made the defensive players unable to respond. Mike Miller jumped up, but instead of shooting, he passed the basketball to the inside.

In the low post on the left, Pau Gasol caught the ball and dribbled with his back, which drove the center of gravity of the defensive player. Then, with a shake of his shoulder, he turned around and jumped up to shoot a two-point shot.

Gasol turned around and shot very smoothly, with a high release point and an extremely soft touch.

Michael Stewart, who was facing him, was half a beat slower and could only watch the basketball fly to the basket.

swish
There is no suspense in the basketball, and it falls into the basket accurately.

The Grizzlies turned back quickly!

2 to 2! !
