Four Hundred and Eighty-Nine: Immediately "Really Fragrant"

Harris made a three-point shot, which surprised many people.

Most people thought this little-known guy was just a short four. Unexpectedly, he can still shoot three-pointers.

Toronto local commentators also turned over the data and found that Harris really has a three-point shooting rate. With the Bucks before this season, Harris shot 33 percent from three-point range.

Although the number of shots is small, the playing time is also small, and the sample is too small. But this is enough to prove that Harris does have the ability to shoot long distances.

The narrator then looked at Harris' heat map again. Then he was amazed that this guy seemed to be able to shoot from any position!

How did such an almighty striker get reduced to guarding the water cooler?

Now, people are starting to see the Grizzlies' ambitions. Their transactions were by no means random.

At 19 to 20, the situation on the field changed dramatically. In the first quarter, although both teams played poorly, the Raptors were able to master the rhythm with that momentum.

But in the second quarter, the Grizzlies were suddenly no worse than the Raptors. They played high-quality defense and counter-attacks, while the Raptors' offense was dominated by the singles of Lowry and DeRozan.

Raptors coach Dwayne Casey held his chin, and the appearance of the water cooler manager turned the tide of the battle, which was beyond his expectation. At the tactical meeting yesterday, he hadn't even prepared Harris' material.

"Be patient, we are still in the lead! Control mistakes and look for opportunities. Be more patient than the opponent, you can get more opportunities!" This time, when the Raptors attacked again, Casey began to shout from the sideline .

Stevens glanced at his opponent, not nervous. The Raptors' offense, even if Casey broke his throat, couldn't play any tricks.

In 1994, 37-year-old Devin Casey began his NBA coaching career as an assistant coach for the Seattle SuperSonics. He became George Karl's deputy and helped the team build a system on the defensive end.

During the 2008-2009 season, Casey became the Dallas Mavericks' defensive coach, working with Rick Carlisle on Dallas' defense.

In the 2011 finals, facing the sharp-edged Miami Heat, after carefully studying the technical shortcomings of LeBron James, it was Casey who firmly suggested that Carlisle use Jason Kidd and other small guards to defend against James.

As a result, everyone saw

James struggled in the finals that year, and the Mavericks won the championship.

It was after that season that Devin Casey became famous and became the head coach of the Raptors.

Casey spent most of his coaching career as a defensive coach, and offense was not his forte. Not only the offense, but Casey's on-the-spot scheduling and lineup adjustment ability is also very general.

Therefore, Stevens is not afraid of the Raptors offense at all. DeRozan and Lowry are the Raptors' only offensive tactics.

Sure enough, after the Raptors played, Lowry quickly handed the ball over to DeRozan, and everyone else was assisting the two of them.

The Raptors have yet to score in the second quarter because of their lack of offensive means. Once the Grizzlies' lack of physical strength can't be grasped, the Raptors won't attack.

No matter who catches the ball, it ends up in the hands of Lowry and DeRozan. As long as these two are killed, the Raptors' offense is not a threat.

This time, Lowry finally chose to give the ball to Alan Anderson. But this guy, who averaged only 38.3 percent from the field, was obviously unable to save the team at critical moments.

Iguodala was blocked directly in front of him, and Alan Anderson couldn't make a shot under this kind of defense.

The Raptors' offense failed again, and Stevens was instantly relieved. As long as the defense doesn't collapse, the game won't collapse.

The moment Anderson struck the iron, Devin Casey only felt a shock in his heart. He knew that the advantage the Raptors established in the first quarter might not be able to be maintained.

The Grizzlies didn't play fast this time, and Conley pushed forward unhurriedly, as if he was playing health basketball with a group of old men.

Everyone in the Raptors is in a hurry, but it is useless to be anxious. The rhythm of the Grizzlies is free and easy, which is not something every team can do.

After Conley crossed the midfield line, he stood there and directed the attack. The Grizzlies players began to run in an orderly manner. This is called offensive tactics!

After Conley waited outside for a few seconds, Link came out of his pocket and handed over to Conley.

Everyone on the Raptors started to move again, and they all wanted to double-team Link again.

However, before Link caught the ball, he passed the ball out again before he could get the heat!

When people saw clearly who received the basketball, they were all stunned - it was Tobias Harris!

"Harris got the ball, and his 3-pointer just now gave the Raptors one point. But at this point, there's no 3-pointer."

The narrator just finished speaking, only to find that the rest of the Grizzlies pulled away, including Link!

This Grizzlies attack is a singles tactic specially arranged for Harris!

Two power forwards starting singles from beyond the arc? This picture is indeed quite unusual.

Harris played point forward in college, which is actually the reason why he didn't do well in the draft. An all-around player like him in college is very likely to become "all-rounder" after entering the NBA.

Evan Turner, the second-place winner of the same year as Link, is a typical example of going from almighty to almighty.

It turns out that Harris is indeed not all-powerful in the NBA. For example, his passing and playmaking skills, even within the range of a striker, are not worth mentioning.

But the experience of playing a point forward in college has allowed Harris to develop an excellent offensive ability with the ball!

Facing Amir Johnson's defense, Harris first skillfully made a few tentative moves, and while Johnson was stunned, he suddenly accelerated and made a breakthrough with the ball!

Under the astonished eyes of everyone, Harris made a jump shot and leaned back slightly. Amir Johnson was stunned, what else could this guy do?

In this way, Harris scored easily and scored five points in a row, helping the Grizzlies turn the score into 21 to 20 and successfully overtake!

After scoring the goal, Harris casually pointed to the dome of the arena, but the hearts of Raptors fans and players were not calm.

Not to mention the fans and players of the Raptors, many fans and players of the Grizzlies became very excited when they saw the scene just now.

Drive the ball like a perimeter player and then pull up a jumper? ! How could he be so powerful, just like a low-profile version of Link.

Stevens nodded in satisfaction when he saw Harris scoring the goal. Sure enough, Harris is actually more suitable for the outside play. As long as the "instructions" are found correctly, Harris can still live up to expectations.

After Harris scored this goal, Stevens was not thinking about winning the game, but thinking about how to make Harris better integrate into the team in the future.

The young marshal believes that Harris will be an indispensable part of the Grizzlies' road to the finals!

This transaction is not in vain.

Harris scored 5 points in a row and continued to perform well on the defensive end, allowing the Grizzlies to come alive.

The Grizzlies dominated the Raptors throughout the second quarter. Devin Casey's adjustments are always not timely. When he was about to use former Raptors core Barriani to eat Harris in the low post, Stevens sent Randolph again. So, it became Randolph eating Barriani in the low post.

With Harris sharing the scoring pressure, Link felt a lot easier in the second quarter. At least now, he doesn't have to face a rough double-team every time he gets the ball.

In the third quarter, Link, whose physical strength was relieved, began to explode. He scored 13 points in a single quarter, opening the score in one fell swoop. By the time the electronic buzzer sounded in the third quarter, Raptors fans had already started to leave!

"It's terrible. Link went completely crazy in the third quarter! He beat DeRozan to the point of bruising his nose. The rate is 2 out of 10..."

After reading the stats comparison between Link and DeRozan, the commentator looked up at the scores of the two teams.

85 to 66, the Raptors have little chance...

"The turning point of this game came in the second quarter. The appearance of Tobias Harris changed the established situation."

"Yeah, no one thought Harris was so good, he could score almost anywhere on the court and switch in front of anyone. And, as a 2.06-foot forward, he could still attack with the ball! amazing!"

"This is not a traditional four, so not every coach can use him. But in Memphis, under Stevens, maybe Harris found his true home."

During the break, the people who were still laughing at the Grizzlies for making this trade unnecessary in the first quarter were instantly "really fragrant."

With 15 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, Tobias Harris played the best performance of his career in his second game after joining the Memphis Grizzlies.

Although Link is the number one hero that the Grizzlies can win today, Harris is the object of discussion today.

"How's your new guy? He's on the right track." Even on the Grizzlies bench, Stevens was discussing their new addition with Link.

Faced with Stevens' question, Link laughed wearily.

"I think we should be one step closer to the finals."
