NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

"Once again the two teams put together a very good half of the game."

"But the fouls committed by the starters of the two teams, I think we still need to restrain ourselves."

Kenny was also holding the data sheet at this time, analyzing it there.

It is true that after halftime, the starting players of the two teams have committed a lot of fouls.

But the good news for the Lakers is that the team's bench lineup is much better than the Grizzlies.

If something goes wrong with the Grizzlies.

Then their offensive system completely collapsed.

It's like every ring that fits together.

When they are together, there may be no problem, but only one is broken.

Then there will be problems in the whole.

On the other hand, for the Lakers, as long as Kobe or Chen Tian are on the court.

There is no problem with the core of the team.

So at this point, Monty is still very relieved.

But he still told everyone to pay attention to the number of personal fouls in the second half.

And Monty also made an adjustment for the second half of the game.

Soon players from both teams returned to the field.

The third quarter is about to start.

The Lakers put Jokic on the bench.

Get Yi Jianlian into the starting lineup.

It is also prepared to increase the speed as much as possible.

But I didn't expect that the Grizzlies also made a substitution adjustment.

They played Randolph at center.

Lifted Jeff Green up and let Xiao Jia sit on the bench.

This move stunned the Lakers.

Let alone Monty, even Chen Tian was stunned.

The three people in the commentary booth didn't know what the arrangement was.

But Chen Tian always felt something was wrong.

Sure enough, after the start of the game, the Grizzlies' transformation had a miraculous effect.

In terms of offense, they still focus on positional warfare.

But Yi Jianlian defended Randolph.

If he is in a high position, Yi Jianlian can still guard Randolph.

But Randolph is now playing center.

Always ask for the ball in the low post.

Yi Jianlian couldn't defend against Randolph's back attack.

Here Randolph asks for the ball in the low post.

After getting the ball, he easily punched Yi Jianlian with his back, and then made a fake shot, shaking Yi Jianlian away.

Easily put the ball into the basket.

On defense, because the Grizzlies replaced Green.

Chen Tian suddenly realized that they couldn't even increase their speed.

Because the Grizzlies have begun to improve their defensive speed.

There was no way, Chen Tian could only bring the rhythm of the game to the Lakers as much as possible.

So after Chen Tian came over with the ball, he played a singles directly.

The Grizzlies lineup, although the defensive speed has increased.

But the inside line has no height, so Chen Tian's breakthrough is difficult to be defended.

So for this goal, Chen Tian easily broke through and scored a layup.

But Monty on the sidelines kept frowning.

Because he knows that this is not the solution.

So it is difficult for Monty to sit on the bench at this time.

After that, neither team's offense was successful.

On the Grizzlies' side, Randolph wanted the ball, but Chen Tian saw it, and immediately cut it off.

But after launching the fast break, Kobe's pass was also too strong.

Del Nudova tried his best to catch up.

In the last fast break, the Lakers also made a mistake.

This ball made Kobe very annoyed.

After all, he messed up a perfect defensive counterattack.

But Kobe is an old player after all, so his mentality recovered quickly.

In the next attack, he also completed a beautiful pull-up layup.

This goal also gave the Lakers a 3-point lead.

Jogel saw that the situation on the field was wrong, so he quickly called a timeout.

Monty also made substitution adjustments at this time.

Let Yi Jianlian and Del Nudova come down.

Jokic and jr were replaced.

The intention of this substitution is obvious, that is, Monty wants to strengthen the offense.

So when the timeout came back, the Grizzlies also got Xiaojia back.

But Tony Allen was replaced.

Formed a big lineup.

Barkley in the commentary seat couldn't help saying with emotion when he saw the substitutions of the two teams.

"In this game, I saw that the head coaches of the two teams are really good. The substitution and adjustment are perfect."

When the two teams returned to the field, they both strengthened their offense.

This is the idea for the Grizzlies to replace Tony Allen and keep Green.

As for the Lakers, it happens to be the same.

Grizzlies possession of the ball.

After Conley came over with the ball, Xiaojia made a screen for Conley at the top of the arc.

After getting rid of jr's defense, Conley was not in a hurry to go inside.

Instead, he leaned against Jokic, who was defending him, and went inside bit by bit.

At this time, Conley suddenly accelerated and caught Jokic by surprise.

By the time Jokic reacted, it was too late.

But Jokic's first reaction was to reach out to defend.

The blow landed on Conley's arm.

And Conley's layup was also successfully scored.

Jokic was immediately very annoyed.

But after seeing Chen Tian's eyes, Jokic lowered his head instantly.

Chen Tian didn't mean to blame Jokic, but just told him not to get angry.

Here Conley went to the free throw line, easily scored the ball, and the score was tied.

In the following time, the two teams also scored each other.

Especially Green of the Grizzlies and jr of the Lakers.

These two people have more physical strength than the others, so they can quickly run out of the open space.

With the last 3 minutes left in the third quarter, both teams made substitutions.

At this time, the Grizzlies brought up Tony Allen to defend Chen Tian.

The two teams also played the last 3 minutes with a starter and four substitutes.

But the feel of the two teams is not very good.

Chen Tian was also a little uncomfortable being restricted by Tony Allen.

However, relying on his physical fitness, Chen Tian also made jump shots repeatedly, although the hit rate was not high.

But Chen Tian still firmly held the lead with the Lakers.

With the last 27 seconds left in the third quarter.

Grizzlies offense.

This time old Carter stood up.

At the end of 24 seconds, Carter made an elegant three-pointer.

The ball went in.

In the end, Chen Tian also made a super long three-pointer with the ball.

The ball was missed and the third quarter was over.

After three quarters, the Lakers led the Grizzlies by five points 79:74.

Judging from the scores, the Lakers suppressed the Grizzlies very well in the third quarter.

But Chen Tian didn't rest for a minute in the third quarter.

And the final winner of this game will also be produced in the last quarter.

The score difference between the two teams is only five points, and everything is still possible.

So the head coaches of the two teams don't dare to be careless now.

When the break time is up, the fourth quarter of the two teams is about to begin.
