I Don’t Want to Be the Boss

Three Hundred and Ninety-Eight. Quasi 3 Double Wins!

Sun Ce played 9 minutes in the first quarter, scoring 2 points, 4 rebounds and 3 assists. Mobile terminal

Running and playing like this, Sun Ce scored 3 assists and 4 rebounds in less than one quarter, which did not surprise the fans at the scene, the fans in front of the TV, the commentator, and the players of the two teams. Getting an assist in 27 or 8 minutes is normal, and rebounding is not normal... But the Grizzlies' counterattack routine is that other people help Sun Ce get a rebound, Sun Ce grabs the rebound and directly counterattacks, people are used to it .

But this is the playoffs!

Sun Ce didn't have any stage fright, and made full use of the loophole that the opponent sent two below-average defenders!

Kidd once switched to defend Anthony Parker for a catch-and-shoot, and Sun Ce threw a hook directly over Jason Terry from inside the free throw line.

After the first quarter, the Grizzlies led the Mavericks by 7 points 26-19 in the first quarter thanks to Sun Ce's 3 assists, Gay's 6 points after replacing Battier, and two transfer assists from Sun Ce's pass. !

And the Mavericks didn't dare to replace Nowitzki! Although Nowitzki was off, the Mavericks team played offensively, but the defensive end was as bad as it was, especially after Marion was replaced by Caron Butler, the defensive end was completely gone.

The good news is that he played well on the offensive end. Jason Terry made a fuss in the playoffs. Don't look at him, he will be 33 years old in a few months. Players with even higher scores are really good, and this is a player who averaged 19 points per game in the regular season in the second grade, and his average score in the playoffs can be higher than that in the regular season.

Nowitzki withered, all thanks to Jason Terry scoring 8 points and 1 assist in 9 minutes after coming off the bench, scoring a three-pointer facing Gay's shot, and an emergency stop jumper facing Sun Ce's defense, There was also a 2+1 singles by Battier that led to Battier being replaced, plus Kidd's 3 points and 4 assists, Tim Thomas scored 4 points as the offensive end point, and Caron Butler scored 4 points. Heywood scored a free throw and scored 18 points in the next 9 minutes, barely competing with the running Grizzlies.

Now the Mavericks' lineup can only play positional warfare on the offensive end, which is fine. Positional warfare in the playoffs is currently the mainstream.

The key is that he couldn't defend on the defensive end, but he managed to play the offense smoothly. Coach Carlisle didn't dare to replace Nowitzki like he did in the regular season to try to see if he survived, so he could only play like this.

This is quite torturous for Kidd. He really hopes to have a big center who can really protect the basket. When the defense is out of order and placed on the bench, it can't hold the rhythm at all. Burning Wrath

In the second quarter of the game,

Sun Ce and Jr. Jordan were replaced, and Coach Hollins switched back to the lineup.

The judgment was accurate this time. The Mavericks replaced Dirk Nowitzki, replaced the double Jason in the backcourt, and replaced the lineup of Barea, DeShawn Stevenson, Marion, and Dampier.

Although Kidd has good physical strength, he still needs to rest if he should rest. If Kidd rests, he must use Nowitzki.

Then the difference was drawn.

Just like the Mavericks played against the Nuggets in last year's playoffs, the rotation lineup can compete, and the return to the superstar is pulled away by two or three points.

In the ninth minute of the second quarter, when Sun Ce, Conley, Gay, Randolph, and Gasol went on the court together to secure the lead before the halftime break, they had already led 46 to 31 by 15 points!

In the full nine minutes of the second quarter, Nowitzki made 1 of 7 shots in these nine minutes and only scored 3 points, which was still an open three-pointer.

In the next game, when playing in the rotation stage, Sun Ce performed very well, but when playing with multiple players, his performance was not so good. After all, there was no way to run the whole game, so Guy could hold the whole game. At this stage, Sun Ce is mainly responsible for advancing the positional battle and handing the ball to Gasol Jr., passing the ball with his vision in the low post, and making a shot when he encounters Kidd to switch to defend others.

But that's enough!

Sun Ce's performance is already amazing!

Coach Hollins just wanted Sun Ce to adapt more in the first game of the playoffs. With such a big advantage in the stage, it doesn't matter if Sun Ce is a bit of a mess, but Sun Ce exceeded Coach Hollins' expectations!

Not to mention playing particularly well, at least it has a positive effect!

Compete against the opponent during the rotation phase, and fight honestly during positional warfare!

On the side of the Mavericks, Coach Carlisle originally wanted to take advantage of Sun Ce and Conley's inexperience as a pair of young guards, but Conley was steady and never made a wrong decision.

The most surprising thing about the Grizzlies game is that there are so many young players. In the eight-man main rotation, Sun Ce, Conley, Gay, Gasol Jr., and Jordan Jr. are five young players who are too tender, and they are not afraid at all! I sell cigarettes and alcohol in another world

On the contrary, each of them was extremely ferocious!

Coach Carlisle can only hate his boss's rhetoric before the game...

A large part of the reason why the Grizzlies played so fiercely here is really related to what Cuban said before the game.

But more importantly, they have no psychological burden at all, and their results this season have already exceeded season expectations!

On the contrary, the Mavericks have the fourth highest salary in the league after the Knicks, the Suns, and the Lakers. They are different from the Knicks. They have to fight for the championship like the Suns and Lakers, and the pressure is much greater than that of the Grizzlies.

The Grizzlies follow the tactical plan, grind their defense in the main stage, rush if they can in the rotation stage, and replace Randolph if they can't, and dig slowly to stabilize the point difference.

The situation was maintained until the end of the game in the direction the Grizzlies hoped for!

Played 26 minutes, made 3 of 7 shots and 1 of 2 free throws. Sun Ce scored 7 points, 8 rebounds, 8 assists and 1 steal.

The Grizzlies beat the Mavericks by 12 points 103 to 91 to win their first playoff victory!

...

The Grizzlies beat the Mavericks, which itself did not cause much disturbance after the game. Most media predicted that the Mavericks would lose against the Grizzlies.

The Mavericks deliberately lost to the third place in the West. Cuban said that they deliberately chose the Grizzlies to play in the first round. This matter became popular!

Nowitzki only played 22 minutes in the game, 2 of 11, and scored 10 points by making 5 of 6 free throws. A total of 10 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist. His playing time was concentrated in the first three quarters. The point difference was stretched to 19 points. In the fourth quarter, Nowitzki didn't play for a minute, but the point difference narrowed to 9 points when the point difference was the smallest.

The picture of Nowitzki covering his head with a towel throughout the fourth quarter became the most interesting picture of the game.

Many fans can see that the rest of the Mavericks have integrated into the new system, but Nowitzki is still outside the system!
