In the second quarter, the Grizzlies sent four swingmen as usual and a small guard to speed up the pace. This was their magic weapon to win.

The Grizzlies' bench strength is also among the top five in the league, and they are good at offense and defense. Earl Watson, Wells, Battier, Cardinal, Stromire Swift.

Swift, who plays as a center forward, is a physically strong inside man. He is 206cm tall and weighs 102kg. He was the second overall pick in 2000. In Yang Rui's previous life, he violently dunked on Yao Ming, which was impressive.

On the bench of the Grizzlies, there is also Dengtai Jones who is very physically fit and can participate in the dunk contest. In Yang Rui's previous life, he violently detained Yao Ming, which was impressive. (Yao Ming: Why, dunking me is the shortcut to becoming famous, right?)

In short, the talent of many Grizzlies players is amazing.

Cardinal, who is 203cm and 109kg, was the 15th pick in the second round of 2000. He is a space-based inside player and can shoot three-pointers. He has poor low-post offense and active defense. After joining the Grizzlies this season, he reached the peak of his career and became an important substitute. He averaged 21.5 minutes per game, scored 9.6 points, 4 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1 steal, shooting 47.2% from the field and 44.4% from the three-point range.

When he was with the Raptors, Yang Rui once suggested choosing Cardinal, but failed.

When two short insiders are on the court together, the Grizzlies can launch a sharp counterattack, and the positional battle is also very layered. The players organize, break through, catch and shoot, and have a clear division of labor.

The Lakers substitutes were even better, and the point difference continued to widen. Yang Rui sent on Mo Williams, Ariza, Iguodala, Diaw, and Diop, one big and four small.

Blue-collar Diop, who has not had many playing opportunities throughout the season, was reused today.

The last time Yang Rui led the team against the Grizzlies, he found that the combination of Odom and Diaw could not gain an advantage. The Grizzlies' two inside players were more mobile, especially Swift, who ran faster than the defenders.

The Grizzlies' two short inside players have equally obvious weaknesses when playing together, and their defense of the penalty area is poor.

Swift's golf IQ is very low, and he has his own BGM when he defends: Butwearenevereverevergettingbacktogether... (This is not that Swift!)

Male-Swift's golf IQ is very low, and he has his own BGM when he defends: I want to fly higher, fly higher, my wings will stir up the storm, and my heart will roar.

This style of play led to Swift averaging three fouls in 20 minutes per game, often jumping on people and running into their arms. He is a regular in the top five and a strong contender for the top five MVPs. Last season, he just lost to Reggie Evans, nicknamed "Joke".

There is no way, just by looking at the nickname, we know that it is difficult for ordinary people to defeat Evans in the field of "Five Big Embarrassments".

Facing Swift, Diop has a clear advantage in strength. Not only does he defend when he comes on the court, he gets deep to the basket and can take shots when he turns around.

On the defensive end, Diop plays a greater role, because both Swift and Wells attack the basket. The Lakers focus on the two outside shooters, and Diop can stay out of the penalty area and wait for the two to come. attack.

Regardless of who the opponent was, Swift rushed to the basket. He wanted to dunk but was blocked by Diop with a slap. It hurt people to see him and worried that he would be seriously injured.

Wells knew how to adjust. He couldn't get to the basket, so he made a pull-up jump shot from the outside. However, he made three consecutive shots.

After an 8-0 run, the Lakers led 43-19, and Hubie Brown called a timeout.

After substitutions and adjustments, the Grizzlies still couldn't recover from their disadvantage, even if Baron Davis returned to the court early. Diop's appearance became a coup for the Lakers. He protected the penalty area very well, allowing Grizzlies players to only take shots from mid- to long-range.

The two reliable three-pointers on the court were targeted, and the two muscular defenders felt cold, and the Grizzlies' offense was seriously hindered.

Brown had no choice but to replace Gasol again, and Yang Rui immediately replaced Diop and replaced Rasheed with Gasol to make targeted adjustments.

Diop definitely can't guard Gasol.

Rashid can do it. The two are about the same size and have similar playing styles. They face each other from the outside. Such players can compete with each other.

Diaw performed well against Cardinal. He could not only interfere with the opponent's shooting, but also use support and breakthrough play on the offensive end to make the opponent run around. Yang Rui never changed his name to Yao and took a whole section of rest.

Kobe came on the field 6 minutes later, and his teammates opened up to help him create singles opportunities and ensure offensive firepower. At the end of the half, the Lakers led 63 to 37.

Davis' touch was not good, the Grizzlies relied on role players to score, and their offense was weak. If it weren't for Miller's last three-pointer against the defense, the Grizzlies would have only scored 15 points in this quarter.

At halftime, everyone in the Grizzlies, including the head coach, was already discouraged.

Hubie Brown is 72 years old, and flying around with the team is already too much. If the Grizzlies hadn't played well, he wanted to retire last summer. Now seeing the intensity of the Lakers' serious defense, he knows very well that if they encounter the Grizzlies in the playoffs, there is absolutely no possibility of advancing.

Hollins joined the Lakers and used his strengths to establish a good defensive system in more than half a season. However, the players were not good enough in terms of assisting defense and supplementary defense. In the zone defense system, due to the strong individual defensive ability of the Lakers players, as long as they do not outperform Jones and Hoiberg and play less fast breaks, their current defensive efficiency can rank among the top ten in the league.

In the second half, the Lakers continued their positional battle. Yao Ming, who had regained his strength, returned to the court and took turns playing singles with Kobe. After the star attracted double teams, the Grizzlies' outside role players also hit four three-pointers, blinding their opponents and sealing the victory. .

In the final quarter, both Yao Ming and Kobe Bryant rested, and the Grizzlies recovered a little bit of the score. The Lakers maintained their advantage with Mo Williams and Diaw leading the team, and finally won 113-86.

The "drug-taking combination" didn't play for long, and still scored 57 points together.

After the game, Hubie Brown was interviewed and lamented: "The Lakers are the best team in the league, and the future must belong to Jerry Young. He is the best coach. Considering his age, this will last for many years." "

Yang Rui also praised Hubie Brown. "The Grizzlies' tactics are very good and the players work well together, but the Lakers' stars are stronger. This is the reason why we won."

Yang Rui praised both the Lakers stars and himself, because the Grizzlies copied his tactics. But at this time, no one felt that it was against the rules. Yang Rui's performance in the coaching circle was enough to stand out from the crowd.

There are more people on the Internet who are optimistic about the Lakers winning the championship. Some people used to say that the Lakers' defense is a weakness. Now it seems that their defense is not bad, but they don't pay enough attention to it.

There are many people on the Internet who suggest that Yang Rui coach the U.S. national team and help the United States regain its dominance in the international basketball world. Since 2000, the Dream Team has been losing, including the World Championships and the Olympics, and this summer there is US Championship.

The American Basketball Association often pays attention to information on the Internet. Officials are divided into two groups. A small number of people suggested contacting Yang Rui to see if he is interested in leading the team. The 2005 US Championships will become his touchstone. If he successfully leads the team to win the championship, he can continue to be the head coach of the 2006 World Championships. If you win the World Championships, you can participate in the 2008 China Olympics.

This US Championship will have young players as the core. It will not be easy to win. After Larry Brown, no big-name coach is willing to lead the national team for fear of being cheated.

Most people suggest finding a coach to lead the team in the NCAA, and the first target is "Old Coach K" Mike Krzyzewski.

Old K's current reputation is far less than that of Yang Rui. There is only one reason why many officials support him. He is a white American.

In any case, Yang Rui has already entered the candidate list. If he can achieve results in the international arena, his historical status will be even higher!
