The Grizzlies are the most balanced team in the league this season, the best team in defense, and the strongest team in singles.

The Seattle SuperSonics, on the other hand, are the league's most attacked, fastest, and most organized passing.

It's fair to say that the Seattle SuperSonics and Grizzlies are two completely different styles this season.

Except that both teams are well-balanced offensive and defensive, the Grizzlies are good at defending and the SuperSonics are good at offense, the Grizzlies don't have as many passes, and the SuperSonics can create an assist almost every time they score.

This season, the Seattle SuperSonics not only set an NBA record by averaging 25 three-pointers per game, but also set an NBA record by averaging 45 assists per game.

That's right, the Seattle SuperSonics are averaging 45 assists per game this season!

It can be said that since the Seattle SuperSonics were organized, the starting lineup of the entire team has not had the kind of singles who hold the ball for a long time.

The styles of the SuperSonics and the Grizzlies are so different, and the way the two teams play in the game is naturally different.

Although the Grizzlies are the main defense, they are also very capable of attacking, although they are stronger than the position, but they are also very capable of running when they are fast attacking.

When the Grizzlies face other teams in the league, they will play fast against teams that are afraid of speed, and they will slow down immediately against teams that are afraid of playing slow.

The Grizzlies' game can be said to be decided according to the opponent's style.

Because of their versatility and strength, the Grizzlies can perfectly target their opponents in every game.

That's why the Grizzlies have looked so invincible this season.

The Grizzlies look like they can be the nemesis of any team this season, and that's really scary.

There is a big difference between the supersonic side and the Grizzlies, and the supersonic style of play this season is to seek speed.

If the other party is slow, you will be fast, and if the other party is fast, you will be faster.

In short, there is no team in the entire NBA that can do it faster than the SuperSonics.

The SuperSonics can almost crazy cut 140 or even 150 points in every game this season, 160 points, 170 points are not so rare.

In the face of such supersonic speeds, the Grizzlies, who are accustomed to adjusting their game rhythm to their opponents, are actually very sure how this game should be played.

Slow down the pace of this game, of course!

Both the SuperSonics and the Grizzlies are teams that can be fast and slow.

But relatively speaking, supersonic is definitely better at being fast, and Grizzlies are better at slow.

Positional warfare, with Oden and the Grizzlies of Pau Gasol, is definitely more dominant.

Therefore, Hollins' tactical arrangement against the Grizzlies in this game is very simple.

The whole team will have to revolve around the middle of Oden and Pau Gasol, trying to control the tempo of the game and annihilate the supersonic in positional battles.

As the absolute core of the team when it was slow, Oden was very excited about this game.

This season is his third since entering the NBA in 2007.

The third season, commonly referred to as the metamorphosis season of superstars.

Durant, who entered the NBA in the same year as him, has now won the MVP of the Finals.

Judging from Durant's stats and achievements, Durant seems to have completed the transformation into a superstar.

Of course, many people still have some questions about Durant's true strength.

But for Oden himself, before this season, he was really envious of Durant.

Regardless of whether Durant has already completed the transformation of a superstar, he is very envious that Durant can play next to his teacher Yes and get so many honors.

And now, Oden, who has completed the transformation of strength this season, still has envy for Durant, but compared with envy, Oden feels that his current mood should be more competition!

The courage to want to compete with the master, to want to compete with Durant, and to compete with the entire NBA!

The Seattle SuperSonics and Grizzlies game began, and the confident and competitive Oden jumped the ball to beat Milicic with ease.

Milicic, who is now the essence of the pork belly, is indeed about to be beaten by Oden on the jump ball.

All about tonight's jump ball, neither team had any other ideas.

Before the jump ball even started, the SuperSonics players were ready to retreat, while the Grizzlies players were ready to attack.

After Carter got Oden's jump ball, he didn't hesitate and pushed the ball through the half court at the first time.

This game the Grizzlies are ready to play slow and there is nothing wrong with that.

But playing slow is not deliberately slow.

Instead, the rhythm slowed down slightly, which happened to be the rhythm I was most accustomed to.

The rhythm that grizzly bears are used to is not a rhythm that is slower is better.

The slower, the better, that's the rhythm of the Spurs and Pistons.

The slow pace of the Grizzlies is that the offensive opportunities are just right, and the defense is to smash the offense after the offense is completed, just enough to retreat from the defense without being hit by the opponent to break fast.

The Grizzlies' offensive and defensive requirements are actually quite high.

This kind of choice of offensive and defensive timing, if it is not for the experience and sophistication of the organizers, no matter how good the passing is, it will not be able to grasp such an opportunity.

If the offense is a little slow, the opponent's defense will be all in place, and if the offense is a little faster, it may be too late for your own defense.

As the Grizzlies' starting playmaker, Carter's passing may not be top-notch, but his experience, his game sense, is definitely top-notch.

Carter now knows exactly when to pass, when to let a teammate go single, and when to single himself.

In the face of Yes's close defense, Carter leaned his back against Yes and leaned Yes behind him, and used his height advantage and vision advantage to catch a glimpse of Oden's position.

Carter threw the basketball into the back of his head after leaning his back twice, and the basketball flew high under the basket.

Carter's passing wasn't that precise, and this one was even more so this one.

But with Oden and Milicic bounced off the ground right now, Carter didn't need to be very precise with his passes.

Milicic doesn't have the ability to jump up and intercept Oden's pass like Carter's.

Brush it up!

Oden received Carter's pass, didn't make any adjustments, and the air relay put the basketball into the basket!

2 to 0!

Oden scored his first two points of the game to the cheers of the Grizzlies fans.

"Very simple, very effective offensive coordination!"

"Since Yao Ming bullied Milicic with that kind of high-flying play, many super center forwards will adopt this offensive style when facing Milicic, and now Milicic's air defense is really poor."

Barkley kept shaking his head.

After Milicic became fat, it was his bounce and air defense that were directly affected.

After Milicic became fatter, his strength did increase, and he did become stronger against a big center like O'Neal who couldn't jump purely.

But for those centers who can jump, have strength and have comprehensive offensive methods, Milicic is really uncomfortable right now.

There are few centers in the NBA who can jump, have strength and height, and have all-round offensive methods.

Tipping is just that, Yao Ming of the Rockets and Oden of the Grizzlies are all such players.

And that's why, before the start of this game, most experts believed that the SuperSonics would lose.

Grizzlies really exist to beat the hypersound.

Of course, onlookers of the SuperSonics and Grizzlies games can anticipate how dangerous Milicic will be against Oden in this game.

Hypersonic others will, of course, take into account.

So seeing that Milicic was bullied like Oden at the beginning, except for Milicic himself, who was a little embarrassed, the other supersonic players were actually fine.

"It's good to have Darko abuse this season."

In fact, the SuperSonics have accepted Milicic's position in the team this season.

There are only a few centers in the league who can restrain the pork belly Milicic, maybe less than five.

Most of the time, Milicic is actually much stronger than last season.

The Seattle SuperSonics were unaffected by Milicic's pressure on Oden, and Yes dribbled quickly through the half.

The Grizzlies were pressing the rhythm, and Ye Si certainly wanted to bring the rhythm up, but the Grizzlies' retreat was very timely.

By the time Yees pushed the ball across the half court with Carter's interference, the Grizzlies had basically all the players except for Oden.

The entire Grizzlies starting lineup, don't look at the very tall height, the shortest Carter is 1.98 meters.

But whether it's Carter, Maddy, Battier, Gasol or Oden, these people are not slow, and even in their respective positions.

By the time Oden returned from the front, Milicic hadn't even made it past half.

It is extremely rare for a Grizzlies player to have such a height and speed in the entire history of the NBA, and perhaps even in the entire history of the NBA, the Grizzlies are the only team with such a special purpose.

"I've never seen a team so tall that can be so fast, and I've never seen a team with such great talent have such great technique!"

"Yes, who has always been fast in passing, was actually stopped by the Grizzlies' retreat!"

Kenny Smith is really incredible.

"The talent gap between the two sides is really huge."

Not only Kenny Smith was shocked, but even Barkley felt as if his head was sweating.

No way, the picture on the court just now is really shocking.

Yes and the SuperSonics are really pushing the fast break at the fastest speed after Oden's goal.

But the big centers of the Grizzlies offense are back, and the big centers of the supersonic defense are still in the backcourt, which is a little embarrassing.

As soon as it came up, it was four to five.

And all five of the opposing players are the kind of guys who defend very well.

Rondo Yes is really afraid to move right now.

Before Milicic came up, the SuperSonics were four to five, and if Yes wanted to use his teammates' cover and pick-and-roll as before, then he would definitely have to face the pack.

And after the bag, there is still not enough space to play the ball.

Then you can really only die.

'It was a good choice for Yes to stop the ball before Milicic came up, and although the attack was stagnant, the attack was not dead.

"But ......"

Kenny Smith had a smile on his face.

The game between the SuperSonics and the Grizzlies started very well.

Before the game, he, like many people, felt that there was no reason for the Grizzlies to lose.

Having said that, he was a little worried because of the deeds before Supersonics and Yes.

But now that he has seen the offense and defense of the first leg of the two teams, Kenny Smith's worries have all been put away.

Yes's choice of attack this time was correct, and there was no rush to attack as before.

Instead, they chose to stop the ball, leaving enough space and options for the team's attack for the rest of the round.

That's good, it's a very correct and perfect choice.

But!

When Yes chooses to stop the ball, it means that the supersonic offensive rhythm is suppressed by the Grizzlies!

So, not to mention that the choice of Yes left an opportunity for this offense, even if this offense scored, the Grizzlies' defense was successful, and the Grizzlies were on the overwhelming side.

The Grizzlies are stronger, and the rhythm control is also on the Grizzlies' side, so tell me, why would the Grizzlies lose?!

Kenny Smith was confident that after this game, the other game between the Heat and Mavericks that was going on at the same time was over.

The only teams left to win all of the league were the Heat and Grizzlies.

The supersonic offense stopped, and Carter and Oden's defense stood in front of Yes.

Carter and Oden didn't rush to clip his ball down, but were ready to block his attack and pass angles.

Grizzlies head coach Hollins is happy with defensive options like Carter and Oden.

Taking risks and pinching the ball will give Yes a chance, Yes's strength is too strong, and the technique is too good.

Completely sandwiching Yes's attack and passing lanes, and waiting for Milicic to clear Yes after half-time is the best option.

Milicic will help Yes out of the way, but the supersonic will also fall into position completely!

"Yes, if you didn't stop the ball and try to pass it to your teammates to attack, but forced the attack yourself, maybe it would have been different."

Kenny Smith said with a twinkle in his eyes.

And Barkley next to him didn't know if Kenny Smith was in the rhythm of Yes.

In short, given the current situation with the SuperSonics and Yes, Yes is just past halftime, and forcing it before Oden comes up may be a better offensive option......

"Yes, you can't have so many opportunities to break the ball in this game, you need to score yourself in this game!"

"Yes."

Hearing Carter's provocation, the corners of Ye Si's eyebrows rose slightly.

"As long as you're not surrounded, there's room for the ball."

As long as you are not surrounded, there is room for the ball?

That's true, but are we still saying that we haven't surrounded you?

Carter was slightly stunned.

Soon, Carter, who was slightly stunned, and Auden, who was next to him, showed an incredibly shocked look.

After Ye Si, who was surrounded by them, suddenly turned around and leaned on them, he suddenly threw out the tight basketball surrounded by them with an unimaginable side-throwing pass!

How is this possible?!

When Carter, Oden and the audience recovered from the shock, the basketball that was passed by Yes appeared in Durant's hand as if it was precisely guided.

Durant didn't have any extra adjustments, and he directly pulled up in the face of Battier's defense!

Brush it up!

Three-point hit!

3 to 2!

It had just been determined that the attack would fail at supersound, and Kenny Smith, who was gushing, opened his mouth wide and couldn't say a word for a while......

This, this passing......

Not to mention Kenny Smith, the magicians in front of the TV have already stood up directly.

"Nash said, my passing is the first in NBA history."

Nash said, my passing NBA all-time first?

Looking at the back in front of him, Carter's face changed from confident to dignified.
