"The situation is a bit delicate now, the Boston Celtics are now in control of the situation on the court, and the Grizzlies are still struggling, although the Celtics have the advantage on the court but have never been able to pull the score away, this situation is extremely unsafe for the Celtics now, especially now that both teams seem to be still ready to give their opponents a final blow"

Kenny Smith himself doesn't know why he thinks that the two teams on the court now seem to be waiting for a last-minute counterattack, and in fact, when the second half of this game began, the Grizzlies had already fought back, for the Grizzlies, this game they need to preempt and also need to beat the Celtics by surprise, in this case, they naturally can't tolerate not only the success of the sneak attack on the Celtics after the game starts, On the contrary, they made themselves counter-effective, which they absolutely did not allow.

For this Grizzlies, if they can't win one of the first two away games, then this series is expected to be as little as last season, for the NBA, a series theorem is that no team can turn the tables around in a 0-3 situation, and for that Chinese, no one has ever been able to win him when he is 0-2 down, let alone win the game, After the Chinese led the team 2-0, most of the series ended with a direct sweep, with only a few big scores being 4-1, and only the original Lakers were able to drag the game to Game 6.

When the Lakers and Celtics met in the 2001 playoffs Western Conference Finals, the Celtics started 2-0, and then the Lakers stubbornly pulled the big score to 2-2, but even so, in the end, the Lakers still lost two games in a row and lost the series, in this case. Carlisle doesn't think he can break Zhuang Fei's theorem, so it's a cruel thing for the Grizzlies to play on the road, they have to win at least one of the first two games, but how to win this one? The best thing for him to do is naturally to put the first game on the sneak attack, just like last season when the Grizzlies were attacked by the Celtics in the first two games.

Although the strength of the two teams has undergone a fundamental reversal at this time, it is for any team. The first game of their series is highly likely to happen, and it's inevitable, especially for the Celtics, who have been resting for eight days in a row, that kind of accident looks more likely, and in fact, before the game starts, Carlisle also thinks so, he's been preparing for this series for a season, and he confidently thinks the Celtics won't notice what he's going to do.

After all, this season is both the regular season and the playoffs. The Grizzlies' performance has actually declined compared to last season, but what he didn't expect was that the Chinese actually noticed him, and even made his least favorite 'upside down tactic', in the regular season, the Grizzlies' two guard players and even the Grizzlies' entire team suffered the Cavaliers' losses. In this regard, the Grizzlies head coach has always regarded the Celtics and Cavaliers as their biggest enemies this season, and the Cavaliers were finally cut by the Wizards in the first round, which was kind of a relief to him.

But what he never expected was that the Chinese actually learned all the knights' sets. The inversion of the inner and outer lines, the inner line becomes the outer line, the outer line becomes the inner line, which is easier said than done. It's not easy to do tactics, and in fact, Zhuang Fei studied almost the whole game after the game with the Cavaliers, and in that game Zhuang Fei also deliberately handed over the command to his assistant Xibodu, and he was dedicated to studying this tactic that Zhuang Fei has always been fascinated by, for any basketball coach, it is difficult to give up when a legendary tactic that only exists in theory appears in front of him, even if the status of this basketball coach is already at the level of Zhuang Fei.

It was also after that game that Zhuang Fei set out to let the Celtics players try this tactical system during training, for these Celtics players, they have the conditions to implement this tactic, the outside has a good back ability, the inside line has a good shooting ability, and the single containment ability of another maneuver point is also excellent, in this case, this Celtics may be more suitable than the Cavaliers for this kind of special offensive tactics, and in fact, for Celtics players, This tactic is more of a change in philosophy, they really don't have any problems in terms of ability, what Zhuang Fei needs to do is to tell outside players such as James Posey and Jackson to let them gradually adapt to their interior offense.

And the same is true for Xiao Ao and Yao Ming's inside line, of course, it is not so simple to make players accept such a change in philosophy, after all, this is a player's habit and technical style, of course, to people, these players were a little uncomfortable at the beginning, but in the end Zhuang Fei succeeded, and this also made Zhuang Fei very happy at that time, just like Zhuang Fei learned the triangle offense in Wake Forest and learned Princeton in the Celtics and Timberwolves, This is a tactic that is not inferior to the triangle offense and Princeton in the minds of basketball coaches, but at that time, Zhuang Fei did not think that this tactic would be used against the Grizzlies.

After all, just like all tactics have flaws, the flaws of this tactic are also obvious, for the outside, it is difficult for them to have a better back ability than the inside, and for the inside, it is also difficult for them to have the same shooting ability as the outside, this is a more contradictory internal and external conversion, and the meaning of this conversion is to achieve a balance between inside and outside, and this game Celtics achieved such a balance, especially when their own inside attack basket has no result, Celtic's conversion is actually completely able to activate the team. And the activation of the Celtics almost caught Grizzlies head coach Carlisle a little off guard, and was originally going to secretly bite the Celtics, who knew that he would be bitten back by the Celtics, this feeling is extremely uncomfortable for anyone, and Carlisle is naturally not surprised.

"Fortunately, our players feel good today, otherwise this game is really dangerous" Carlisle looked at Terry, who was almost face-to-face with Wade, and was secretly glad in his heart, at the beginning of the third quarter of this game, Carter and Terry forcibly broke out for a few minutes, and after trying to give the Celtics a counterattack failed, Carter fell silent, and Terry picked up the gun left by Carter, and the Grizzlies' sixth man really stabilized the situation, Although on the field the grizzlies are extremely passive.

But it's not much behind in the score, and when the third quarter ended, the scoreboard showed that the score was 85-78, the Grizzlies head coach was also secretly relieved, this point difference is not impossible to chase for the current Grizzlies, the Grizzlies head coach almost glanced at Carter who was about to get off the court, and the Grizzlies boss who fell silent in the second half of the third quarter was his hole card. And he is also the most critical breath of this game and even this series of Grizzlies. And what kind of role this tone can play in the next fourth quarter will directly determine the success or failure of the Grizzlies in this series.

"I can also see that both teams are accumulating energy, and they are obviously preparing for a big battle in the fourth quarter" Barkley also said with some thought after seeing the end of the third quarter, the players on both sides walked off the court, and at the beginning of the third quarter of this game, the Grizzlies wanted to come to a wave, and in the end, this wave made Maddie and Yao Ming, who had not moved in the first half of the game, to dissolve, in fact, for the Celtics, the physical strength of these two may be Zhuang Fei in order to deal with Carter's sudden outburst, In this team, others can score in the regular season, but if you want to say that the explosiveness of scoring in the entire Boston Celtics except for Maddie, no one can compare to Carter, and even Maddie may not be comparable now, so for the sake of insurance, Zhuang Fei has always left a Yao Ming on the side to assist, and in fact, at the beginning of the third quarter, the first wave of Celtics and Maddy launched by the Grizzlies were very good to resist, but no one knows what will happen the second time, but it is certain, The fourth quarter wave will be even more ferocious.

In fact, when the fourth quarter of this game began, the Boston Celtics and Grizzlies both sent their own second team, such an atmosphere was even stronger, it was obvious that these two teams were not capable of the whole quarter of the outbreak, but needed a buffer time, and this seemingly buffer time was also extremely difficult, at least at this time the fans on the side of the court did not have that optimism on their faces, and the two TNT commentators on the commentary bench frowned, And when the Grizzlies called a timeout with seven and a half minutes left in the fourth quarter, everyone was already staring at the benches of both teams.

When Carter and Maddy, Yao Ming, Big Ben and others on the bench got up from the bench and walked onto the court again, the game, and even the most important showdown of the series, began.

"This should be the first such duel between the cousins Carter and Maddie, right?" Barkley was also stunned when he saw the two players who decided the outcome of the game walking onto the court, this time is a little late for Maddie and Carter, who have played in the NBA for 7 years and in the NBA for 6 years, this is a belated decisive battle.
