One Hundred and Forty-Eight: It's Not a Level for a Long Time

The embarrassment of Stephenson's layup and neck was like a microcosm of the Pacers' embarrassment throughout the game.

At the beginning of the game, the Pacers showed an invincible temperament. But as the game progressed, the strength gap between the two sides began to show.

The Pacers' offense, like Stephenson's layup, seemed aggressive, but ultimately ended in failure.

After the first quarter, the Pacers seemed to suddenly lose their temper. Their offense became less efficient, and the Grizzlies used teamwork to dismantle the Pacers' defense.

In the second quarter, the Grizzlies beat the Pacers 31-21 in one breath. As a team that is not good at offense, he scored 31 points in a single quarter. This signifies that the Pacers' proud defense is basically over.

At halftime, the Pacers trailed by 17 points. And in the second half, the point difference is likely to continue to be widened...

In the second half, Frank Vogel increased Paul George's number of shots, but unfortunately, George's offensive methods in this period were still very immature. As a George who only played in the street court before high school, and has not played the NCAA Division I in college, it does take a long process to adapt to the intensity of the NBA game.

As for why Link, his classmate, could adapt so quickly... Well, that's another question.

George faced Tony Allen and struggled offensively. George in this period was basically a catch-and-shooter, and his offense with the ball was pretty bad. Therefore, a master defender like Tony Allen can easily judge George's intentions.

George, Stephenson and Granger, Frank Vogel tried and failed the three players he thought were the most likely to carry the offensive load.

George is still too young, Stephenson is too funny, and Granger, after getting used to his quick shots, Link found that Granger's shots are very regular, so it is easy to be caught, which is also Granger's hit The reason why one section is not as good as one section.

Granger has never been a top scorer in the league, and once he finds a way to guard him, it's not difficult to limit.

In such a situation, Frank Vogel and Hollins two coaches replaced all the main players 5 minutes before the end of the game. Because at this point, the game has entered garbage time.

"The Memphis Grizzlies have another win, their third straight after a four-game losing streak. Well, the game isn't over yet, but I don't think the result will change." Reggie . Miller sat bored in the commentary box, he thought it would be a close match, but obviously this game has nothing to do with the exciting.

This can't help but remind Miller of the matchup between the Grizzlies and the Clippers a few days ago, which was also once considered to be the focus of the battle. The results of it? The Clippers were abused so badly that even the No. 1 pick Griffin was beaten badly.

And today, the same thing happened again.

Reggie Miller couldn't help thinking, maybe the Memphis Grizzlies aren't on the same level as these teams. They are strong, they can make the top teams peel off. Against a team that has only won 30 or so games from the start, it's even more of a problem.

It's just that people always look at the Grizzlies with the same old eyes and think they are in the same league as a team with more than 30 wins. But in fact, people have raised a level.

Miller laughed. The current Memphis Grizzlies are a ticking time bomb. Whoever encounters them is unlucky. Having said that, he is really looking forward to the Grizzlies in the playoffs.

The electronic buzzer finally sounded, and only half of the fans in the Consecco Arena could sit still. The Pacers players looked up at the score on the big screen and shook their heads.

99 to 78, they were tortured by blood.

"At the end of the game, the Grizzlies easily beat the Pacers by 21 points on the road. The game was really high and low.

Everyone thought the matchup between the eighth in the East and the eighth in the West would be intense. But in fact, from the beginning of the second quarter, the situation has been one-sided. Let's congratulate the Grizzlies, who have won their third straight after four straight losses. "

Reggie Miller didn't know how to make a summary. The strength gap between the two sides in this game was really too big, and there was nothing to sum up. In this era of encouraging offense, the Pacers scored less than 80 points, which is enough to say. The Grizzlies' defense was too strong for the Pacers.

Daniel Granger scored 5 of 15 in the game. Although he scored 17 points, his shooting percentage of 33.3% is really unbelievable.

Paul George went 2 for 8. Vogel gave him a lot of chances in the second half, but George ran into the formidable Tony Allen.

Stephenson went 0 for 4, and aside from that layup, he didn't have an impressive moment today.

On the other hand, for the Grizzlies, Link made 7 of 14 shots and scored a double-double of 19 points and 11 rebounds with a 50% shooting rate, the fourth double-double in his career! Today, Link, as a No. 3, grabbed 4 offensive rebounds! He undoubtedly implemented Hollins' tactical thinking clearly.

The performance of the rest of the Grizzlies is not bad, Randolph scored 17 points on 8 of 11, and Pau Gasol scored 10 points on 4 of 7. Conley also scored 17 points, but the shooting percentage was slightly lower than that of his teammates, only 44.4%.

But in all fairness, a 1-position player can score 17 points on 44.4% shooting, which is already very good. The reason he's shooting low is simply because the rest of the Grizzlies are shooting too high.

"It seems that this summer, I have to train with you, Link." After the game, George looked helpless. Seeing his college friends leave him far behind, George was frustrated.

"Okay, maybe we can borrow Butler University's basketball hall in the summer." Link readily agreed, this guy was already planning to steal something from George!

Anyway, Link is very clear about George's career trajectory, that guy will become a super scorer sooner or later. So, today this guy who made only 2 of 8 shots is not easy at all.

At this point, the game between the Grizzlies and the Pacers has come to an end, and the Grizzlies players can go home with the victory in peace.

But at this time, in the luxury box of Consecco players, the Pacers basketball operations chairman Larry Bird did not leave. The guy was staring at the field with a cigar in his mouth. To be exact, staring at that Grizzly 0.

"You said, how much will the Grizzlies give that kid this summer?" Bird looked directly at Link, as if imagining that he would play at Conseco in the future.

"What do you mean?" Pritchard, the Pacers vice president of basketball operations, widened his eyes.

"Well... nothing, I just think, in free agency this summer, that guy might be a hit."

The season is not over yet, but the frenzy of summer has already begun.
