Link and Conley''s bag played a role, Grizzlies'' first defense let Lillard eat a big hole.
Facts have proved that the Grizzlies'' defensive strategy is correct. They force Lillard into a defensive trap, link stands outside and will decisively trap Lillard.
In this way, link as a number four position, it is equivalent to give up the defensive rebounds of the fight, but also gave up on Aldrich strict defense. But in this way, Lillard must pass link''s ten finger pass every attack.
In such a case, supplemented by Gasol''s interior defense and rebounding control, can play a perfect effect.
Just the first round of successful defense, is proof.
The strategy itself is the right remedy, and link is one of the best defensive players in the league. Even, one can be removed.
Although link won the best defensive player award this year, it doesn''t mean that his defensive ability has declined. On the contrary, his defense was as good as last season.
In addition to 2.1 steals and 1.8 blocks per game, link also limited his opponent''s hit rate to only 43.5%.
Among them, the reasonable impact area is suppressed to 49.5%, the medium distance is suppressed to 35%, and the outer three-point line is suppressed to 29%.
In addition, this season, link in addition to frontal steals the opponent and cuts off the opponent''s passing route these two aspects are still outstanding, but also many times in the opposite pass instantaneous use his light speed response to complete the snatch.
Link''s defensive deterrence at this time is just like the deterrence of Goebel, Jordan and other players who are ready to enter the restricted area.
He stands at the top of the arc, presses the center of gravity once, and then forms an invisible gas field. Just like Pippen in those days, one person is an army, and another is the whole court press.
In addition to the one-to-one one defense, link has also done a good job in assisting defense and compressing space. He is always able to make up for the most correct position at the right time. I don''t know how many times this season, the offensive players think he has successfully broken through the defense line, but the final wait is not the goal, but link''s big risk or steals.
Most importantly, link has only 1.8 fouls per game this season! Beverly, green and others can not compare this point. He often doesn''t have to foul to stop the other team from scoring.
According to the words of Chinese fans, "link''s defense will make you feel like you''ve been beaten up and the other side hasn''t broken the law."
This is link, whose defensive water is undoubtedly the top of the league''s top. Indeed, the Spurs "facial paralysis guy" is good enough, his voting rate is only less than two percentage points lower than link.
However, this does not mean that link''s defensive ability has degenerated. At most, it can only be regarded as that the media have some aesthetic fatigue on the winner who won the prize and wanted to see a rookie win the prize. As a result, it still failed.
The perfect strategy, combined with the league''s best defenders, is enough to keep Lillard''s hands in check.
And that round, as link said, was just the beginning!
The second time the Blazers attack, this time, Lillard did not continue to call Aldrich pick and roll, he wanted to break his own singles.
But Conley''s defense is not vegetarian, his biggest characteristic is not to make mistakes.
Therefore, it is not easy to defeat Conley in 1-on-1. You may not be robbed or blocked, but you can''t find a gap in Conley either.
Moreover, link is always watching Lillard''s movement. Although he didn''t directly pack it up, he always gave Lillard the feeling that link was everywhere. It was better not to act rashly.
In the end, Lillard passed the ball to Nicolas Batum, a French team mate who was ambushed in the bottom corner.
Batum''s performance in the playoffs is still good, the data are better than the regular season.
But battum''s shot was not so easy against Tobias Harris, who was taller.
As soon as he was ready to take off, Harris raised his arm high and blocked it so that the French couldn''t find the direction of the basket.
Although Batum can take out 33% of the three-point shooting rate in the playoffs, he is not yet ready to shoot against the defense.
In this way, Batum''s shot hit the left side of the basket, the Blazers'' attack failed again!
Since the beginning of the game, the Blazers have lost two consecutive rounds. Their magic aura seems to have been picked off by Grizzlies.
Link and Conley worked hand in hand to form a wall of iron, which made Lillard hit his head and blood.
Defense efficiency up, grizzlies attack is not vague.
Link used the speed advantage to cut into the forbidden area empty handed, Gasol in the middle of the back, hit a pass, then let the cut in link received the basketball.
At this time, Lopez was pulled to the middle distance by Gasol, Aldrich was pulled out of the three-point line by Harris, Batum couldn''t catch up with link, and the restricted area of the Blazers was directly open.Easy, link will lay up successfully, complete the attack.
The Grizzlies cut the Trail Blazers'' defense.
On the sidelines, trailblazers coach Terry Stotts was suddenly nervous.
In just two rounds, Stotts realized that Grizzlies and their last rival, clippers, were not at all the same level!
For now, stoats can only count on Lillard to break the deadlock.
Lillard really dare to fight, in the Grizzlies targeted defense, Lillard did not timid, but took the initiative to strengthen the aggressive, more courageous.
This time, Lillard chose to break through the defense. After the cover, before Conley catches up, Lillard speeds up and challenges link directly!
It has to be said that Lillard''s first step starting speed is also very good. Don''t say it''s a forward, even a lot of small guards can''t stand Lillard''s trouble.
But if he''s facing a striker who has won the best defensive player, that''s another matter.
Link''s traverse speed and reaction speed are very fast, every summer link and Lillard in the training camp against, Lillard''s speed has long been used to.
Therefore, he blocked Lillard''s breakthrough route at the first time!
Lillard was so blocked by the strong link that he became very difficult.
But he still did not give up, but forced to the basket to kill, in the case of not completely get rid of link forced layup!
In the last round, even if he didn''t score goals, he would probably get fouls from Jordan and Paul.
At the FedEx stadium, however, link is not used to it.
Lillard''s feet had just left the ground, and before he could send the ball to the basket, link waved his long arm and "bang", which directly fanned Lillard''s basketball out of the baseline.
"Shit!" Lillard''s heart began to waver, and he was extremely determined at this time by link to make a crack.
After the successful sealing, link spread out his hands to Lillard with an expression of "I didn''t mean to".
"I said, it was just the beginning. Keep it up, Damien
Nothing can defeat the enemy''s heart better than cover and rubbish.
Lillard didn''t respond, poised to receive the out of bounds serve. But everyone could see that Lillard was just trying to look calm.
After the out of bounds ball came out, Lillard chose to give the ball to Aldrich.
But Aldrich''s shot was seriously disturbed by Gasol, and the Spaniard is also the best defensive player level. Give him the inside line. Link is very relieved.
Mark Gasol is exactly the capital that link is bold to pack.
The Blazers lost the third round in a row, they were completely eaten to death by Grizzlies.
After the game, it was Lillard''s big rollover scene.
Passing mistakes, forced shots, hitting the iron, hitting the frame...
the reputation and reputation accumulated on Paul''s head in the last round of Serie rad''s series have all been defeated by the Federal Express stadium, by link and Conley.
Wherever Lillard goes, link''s long arms will be waiting for him. As a result, as soon as Lillard saw link, he began to panic...
after Lillard was limited, the Blazers'' attack became monotonous. Rudd tried his best to turn the tide back, but he was too reckless to achieve any effect.
Lillard began to pant, began to beat faster, began to... Began to fear!
He thought there was nothing more difficult than 1-3, he thought he had gone through a real hell.
However, link did not cheat him, here, Memphis, the Federal Express stadium, is the real appearance of hell!
The later the game was, the more struggling Lillard played and the bigger the difference between the two sides.
At the beginning of the fourth quarter, the live photographer gave Lillard a close-up of his face.
Different from always full of fighting spirit in the past, what Lillard shows on his face today is helplessness and powerlessness.
This seemingly indestructible fighter is on the verge of collapse.
