1054: A new way to deal with small lineups?

Draymond. Green has always held a grudge against Link's previous statements, and he's been looking for an opportunity to fight back.

Green, this guy is not the kind of person who can suffer.

If someone makes a small gesture against him on the pitch, he will definitely return the color in a more violent way.

It's the same on social media, where Link previously sarcastically said he was jealous that Green was a "three-singles superstar per game," much to Green's annoyance.

So after learning today that the Grizzlies almost lost to the Pelicans, Green finally played a good role in the problem.

In some ways, Green does have the capital to play on this issue. Because so far this season, the Warriors have won only a handful of games with a score difference of less than double digits.

In several games, the Warriors' scores and the difference between the two teams were exaggerated.

On Nov. 1, the Warriors comfortably eliminated the Trail Blazers 127-104 on the road.

And the last time the Grizzlies beat the Trail Blazers, it was still through Link's stunner.

On November 3, the Warriors defeated the Thunder 122-93, another easy massacre.

On Nov. 10, the Warriors defeated the Nuggets 125-101. On Nov. 21, the Pacers beat the Pacers 120-83. On November 23, he beat the Lakers 148-105 to complete revenge.

And the 148 points in a single game is also the highest score in a single game this season except for the 149 points scored by the Grizzlies against the Hornets!

And then today, they beat the Suns 138-109.

In the Warriors' games, the scoring is often very exaggerated. Their blistering pace and a lot of three-point shots made it impossible for the opponent to resist.

In this context, Green naturally does not look up to the Grizzlies' game.

The war of words between the two sides is still continuing, and the contradictions are still accumulating.

No one dares to imagine what a sensation it will cause when all the contradictions are on the verge of breaking out on the 5th!

The day after the game against the Pelicans, all the Grizzlies players were in the training arena at the Federal Express Arena.

Even Carter Sr. openly stated in the locker room that "Green is a son of a bitch."

Green's attack on the Grizzlies did make the Grizzlies players angry.

After all, no one wants their desperate victory to be denied.

Yesterday, the Grizzlies players fought until the end to get the victory, and it became a fig leaf for the pseudo-strong team in Green's mouth.

This denial of the fruits of other people's efforts is indeed very vicious.

So today Joggel could see that the Grizzlies players were very excited.

They can't seem to wait to get the Warriors to pieces in tomorrow's game.

It's good to stay excited and want to win before the big game.

But Joggle also knew that this momentum alone would not be enough to crush the Warriors.

Indeed, the Warriors are the Grizzlies' biggest opponent and the most hated enemy.

But this enemy is strong, Jogger has to admit.

Until now, Joggle was thinking about tomorrow's tactics. Especially after Gasol's suspension expired, Jogel has been thinking about how to get Jokic and Gasol to coexist on the court.

In the past few games, Jokic's excellent performance has not been forgotten.

Against the Warriors, most teams have followed suit by going smaller, playing five small against five.

The Grizzlies did the same when they won the Warriors for the first time.

But tomorrow, Jogger wants to try something different.

He had discussed this many times with Link and Snyder, and in theory, it could work.

I just don't know if this move can work wonders in the face of a strong team like the Warriors.

After the day's practice, most of the players went home early to recharge their batteries and prepare for tomorrow's big game with the Warriors.

But when everyone left, Link found that Dinwiddie was still staying.

After seeing that everyone was about the same, Dinwiddie walked outside the three-point line with the basketball in his arms and began to practice three points!

"Don't you want to save some energy for tomorrow's game?" Link yelled at Dinwiddie.

He has watched closely that Dinwiddie's three-point practice hasn't been interrupted since training camp this summer.

Whether it's away or at home, whether there is a game or not, Dinwiddie will practice his own three-point practice.

Hearing Link's voice, Dinwiddie turned his head in surprise, only to realize that Link hadn't left yet.

"It's okay, just cast a few to play, and it doesn't take much physical strength." Dinwiddie waved his hand and started shooting.

Link looked at Dinwiddie and shook his head.

His efforts have not been in vain, and although the stats are still lackluster this season, Dinwiddie's three-point shooting percentage has risen from less than 20% last season to 37.6%.

Unknowingly, the three-point shot was no longer Dinwiddie's weakness, but became one of his main scoring tools.

The reason why his stats are not so dazzling is that he basically came on as a substitute for Conley. The playing time and shots are not enough, and the data naturally can't get up.

That's basically the case with the four youngsters on the Grizzlies, but Link is well aware that their strength is definitely much stronger than the stats suggest.

These are all sources of confidence for Link to regain the championship.

"Hey, Spencer." Looking at it, Link stood up and walked towards Dinwiddie.

"What's wrong?"

"Let's do it again, we haven't played since training camp in the summer."

"Okay!" Dinwiddie clenched his fists excitedly, "I haven't beaten you in a long time, Link!" ”

"Hahahaha, do you really think you're a top shooter? Take it, boy. ”

"I'm not a top shooter, but I don't give up when I need to, Link!"

With that, the two men began another three-point duel.

Except for the two of them, no one knows the outcome of this matchup.

※※※

"Don't worry, I'll help you unload your baggage. I know you're under a lot of pressure with the burden of a 20-game winning streak. It doesn't matter, the weak don't deserve to be responsible in the first place. ”

December 5, Memphis, Federal Express Arena.

The blockbuster matchup between the Warriors and the Grizzlies took place as scheduled.

The day before the game, a bunch of news trucks gathered outside the Federal Express Arena.

In the square outside the stadium, fans have gathered since last night and collectively shouted slogans.

All of this highlights what makes this game so special.

Two teams that have swept the league in the last two years, and two teams that have each beaten each other once in the playoffs and won the championship. Such a duel is of great significance.

It seems that this is no longer just a war between Grizzlies and Warriors, but a war between two cities, a battle for the supremacy of the Alliance!

Even the fans were so excited, and the players on both sides were naturally even more excited.

So when Draymond. When Green came out to warm up, he was the first to walk up to Link and send a sincere "greeting".

"You don't have to worry about it, Draymond. You still have to think about it, how to brush up the data of three orders today. Link curled the corners of his mouth in disdain, Green's threat was as weak as an ant in front of a human.

"Haha, you can be hard-mouthed now. Don't forget, you haven't beaten us in the real sense of the word since KD joined! Today, nothing will change the ending! ”

After Greene finished speaking, he turned away angrily.

Link looked at the Warriors' half and had to say that their lineup was indeed too much.

With Curry, Thompson and Green alone, the Warriors are already strong. Now, there is also a KD at the top scorer level.

Images of last season's Western Conference Finals defeat to the Warriors began to replay in Link's mind.

But soon, Link turned his head to look at his teammates again.

The current Memphis Grizzlies are different......

Failure, that's a thing of the past.

Soon, the starters of both sides were in their assigned positions.

On the Grizzlies' side, it's still Conley, Wade, Link, Harris and Gasol. As for the plan, Joggle decided to take a look at it first.

On the Warriors' side, Curry, Thompson, Durant, Green and Vallejo started the five.

Of course, "Brazilian actor" Vallejo is just a fake starter, and he will soon be replaced by Clark and others.

When the time comes, Clark will play the No. 3 position, Durant will play the No. 4 position, and Green will return to the No. 5 position. The real starting line of the Warriors is still a five-man lineup. The attack power of this five-small lineup has been tested by the Suns for the Grizzlies the day before yesterday.

It's so fierce that it can't be done!

Amid the cheers of the fans, this high-profile battle officially began.

Gasol got the ball from Vallejo, and soon Durant was in front of Link.
