The second half of the game started quickly.

The Grizzlies' starting five are Conley, Mayo, Battier, Rudy Gay, and Randolph.

This is a lineup with strong offense and weak defense.

It's obvious that Grizzlies coach Hollins is beginning to waver.

What should I do if I can’t prevent it?

Only attack!

When he got to the Twin Towers, he was bullied by Curry without the ball. When Tony Allen was on the court, the Warriors unscrupulously let him go and frantically flanked Randolph.

Although Conley and Randolph played well in the pick-and-roll, the Grizzlies were unable to guard against the Warriors' offense, and the point difference kept widening.

What to do?

Only attack!

This is the only way for all Warriors opponents to reach the end!

The lineup the Grizzlies picked up is very flexible. Both Conley and Mayo can initiate offense. There are four shooters on the outside and a big killer Randolph on the inside. The offensive end is very threatening.

But the warrior is not afraid.

The Warriors' starting lineup remains unchanged, with Curry, Prince, Tucker, Kirilenko and Lopez.

Mayo's offense is indeed good, but when the person guarding him is Prince, Mayo's skills are useless.

Tucker defends Battier and Kirilenko defends Rudy Gay. The Warriors have advantages in both positions.

Lopez struggled to defend Randolph, but Prince, Kirilenko and Tucker's flanking defense made Randolph very painful.

Even Curry, with his excellent golf intelligence and tenacious fighting spirit, has no problem in rotating defense.

What Curry lacks is only his physical talent, and he has no shortage of hard work!

Curry is as good as anyone in his place!

As for the option of playing Curry alone, Deng Fang will not let the Grizzlies succeed.

What do the three forwards Prince, Tucker and Kirilenko do?

It’s used to fill in for Curry and help defend!

These three people have speed, strength, height, and rich defensive experience. Assisting in defensive rotations is a piece of cake!

Although the Grizzlies have strong offensive firepower, the Warriors have a better defense!

More importantly, the Warriors' offense is much better than the Grizzlies, and the Grizzlies can't defend them at all.

In order to attack, the Grizzlies gave up part of their defense.

Mayo's defense was average, and Gasol was not on the court. The Warriors simply couldn't defend against the Warriors' offense.

Curry found an opportunity to take action again!

A three-point shot after the pick-and-roll!

Forced Mayo to take a one-on-one three-pointer after changing defense!

A three-pointer after running without the ball!

He got past Randolph and broke through to the inside for an easy layup.

Passing between the two flanking players, he broke through and scored...

When it comes to offensive skills alone, Curry is not afraid of anyone!

In just 5 minutes, Curry scored 16 points and sent 4 assists!

The point difference quickly expanded to 25 points!

The Warriors' offensive firepower is very fierce, and Curry, who has found his touch, is unstoppable.

Even if the Grizzlies bring back Tony Allen and Gasol, it won't help!

Compared to defense, offense is always more proactive.

No matter which superstar he is, as long as he finds his touch, no one can defend him!

Soon, the third quarter was over, and the point difference widened to 30 points!

The game also lost its suspense.

In the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies did not start the game. Both teams were substitutes and the game was played very quickly.

The final score was fixed at 132:101, and the Warriors won by 31 points!

The series score became 2:0, and the Warriors were in great shape.

In this game, as the Grizzlies strengthened their offense and their defensive intensity dropped a lot, Curry got a lot of shooting opportunities.

After the game, Curry made 15 of 22 shots and scored 39 points, 11 assists, 7 rebounds, and 2 steals.

Less playing time? High shooting percentage? Lots of assists. Curry's efficiency is terrifying!

…

On May 20, the second game of the Eastern Conference Finals was also played.

This game was still played at the Bulls' home court, but it was the Heat who had the last laugh.

The Bulls' defense in this game was still good. They also grabbed a lot of frontcourt rebounds. However, the Heat did better on the defensive end, completely limiting the Bulls' offense.

The Heat only made 3 of 13 three-pointers in the game? The shooting rate is quite low? But the Bulls' three-pointers were even worse? Only 3 of 20!

Relying on a large number of frontcourt boards, the Bulls got a lot of shooting opportunities. However, their shooting percentage was very low. They made 28 of 82 shots from the field, which was only 34%!

Rose's efficiency was also very low. He made 7 of 23 shots and only scored 21 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds.

Luol Deng's efficiency was not high either. He made 5 of 15 shots and only scored 13 points. He had 2 assists, 5 rebounds, and 4 turnovers.

Apart from that, no one from the Bulls scored in double figures!

Four players on the Heat scored in double figures, and the best performer was James. He made 12 of 21 shots and scored a game-high 29 points, 5 assists, and 10 rebounds.

However, under the Bulls' targeted defense, James also made 5 turnovers.

I have to say that Spoelstra is really good at defense, even if he is no worse than defensive expert Thibodolby.

When both teams defend well, what everyone is competing for is the quality and quantity of their stars.

Obviously, the Heat have an absolute advantage in this regard.

In the end, the Heat won the game 85:75, and the series score became 1:1.

The Eastern Conference finals completely turned into a hand-to-hand battle. Both teams scored very low and the game was not enjoyable to watch.

Of course, the Grizzlies also want to change the game to this rhythm, but they can't...

…

At 7:30 pm on May 21, the third game between the Warriors and the Grizzlies officially started at FedEx Arena.

In this game, the Grizzlies once again made changes to the starting lineup. Hollins took down Randolph and Battier, playing a senior and a fourth.

Conley, Tony Allen, Battier, Rudy Gay, Gasol, all five defensive heroes are on the scene!

These five people are the five best defensive players of the Grizzlies. It is obvious that the Grizzlies are determined to defend against the Warriors.

Defense is the foundation of the Grizzlies!

I don’t have to make a shot, as long as you can’t make a shot either!

After trying in the last game, Hollins finally understood one thing, that is, fighting the Warriors offensively, and competing for three points is courting death!

Even if you die, you must die on a position you are familiar with!

I can let you die, but I can't let you die of fear!

The Warriors' starting lineup remains unchanged, with Curry, Prince, Tucker, Kirilenko and Lopez.

The Warriors' starting lineup is even stronger than last season and is truly both offensive and defensive!

In this game, the Grizzlies implemented the game principles very well. The whole game was in one word: defense!

Regardless of whether the Warriors are flanking or not, whether it's Gasol or Tony Allen, as long as there's a chance in the low post, just go for it!

Lopez defending Gasol?

singles!

Gasol’s low post singles skills are average?

It doesn't matter whether he scores or not, as long as he doesn't shoot three-pointers!

I won’t give you a chance to grab long rebounds and play fast breaks!

Kirilenko switches defense in front of Gasol?

singles!

Double team?
