The fans at the home of the Grizzlies felt very at ease. After all, the Spurs lost three times against the Spurs before. And at that time, there was at least Elliott in the Spurs lineup. Now that Elliott is gone, there is only Elliott.

Already.

Although Elliott's condition has declined sharply due to illness, if he declines again, he will still be better than Mario Elliott. The Spurs' overall strength has obviously declined again.

The game on the court had already begun, and Jiang Dongbing didn't think the Spurs would really be the Grizzlies' opponent, so he just sat on the bench and watched the game silently.

From the beginning, the two inside towers of both sides were very angry. Of course, this anger was mainly between Xiao Ou and the Admiral. Both David and Duncan had expressionless faces.

Since becoming an All-Star, O'Brien has become very confident. To put it mildly, he is a bit inflated.

However, Jiang Dongbing doesn't think this is a bad thing. A player's self-confidence is very important. In many cases, a player who is timid and lacks self-confidence will never achieve great results.

The swollen Ou faced Robinson, one of the four major centers, in the opening game. He had an extremely strong desire to attack and successfully dunked under Robinson's defense at the beginning.

This also angered Robinson. As a fossil-level veteran in today's league, how could Robinson endure such a provocation, and his movements became more aggressive.

O'Brien is not to be outdone. He is in his prime. His physical fitness is not comparable to that of the aging Robinson. He has an advantage in physical combat under the basket.

David looked strange. Robinson was the center and should obviously be facing him. However, after the game started, Robinson simply ignored him. Instead, Duncan followed him all the time.

The confrontation between the two inside towers on the field can definitely be called the most luxurious inside combination in the league today. No team can find such a strong twin tower lineup, which is a feast for the eyes of fans who like inside players.

Jiang Dongbing is also the kind of fan who likes to play inside, and he is watching the game on the court with relish at the moment.

A two-tower duel, to be precise, this game is a four-tower duel. Judging from the scene, the Grizzlies definitely have a slight advantage, but this advantage cannot be converted into a victory.

But if you include the Grizzlies' outside lineup, then the Grizzlies are already guaranteed to win this game. The Spurs' outside lineup is too shabby compared to the Grizzlies.

At the end of the first half, the Grizzlies easily won by 11 points. It was really an understatement. Did you know that Jackson was not in good condition tonight? He only made one three-pointer in five attempts.

This situation? The only thing Jiang Dongbing needs to do is to prepare to harvest this victory.

After defeating the Spurs, the Grizzlies will have six more regular season games. Their opponents are not strong. They will definitely win easily. By then, the Grizzlies will have completed a perfect regular season schedule.

After the regular season, the playoffs are about to begin, and Jiang Dongbing has already begun planning the Grizzlies' playoff journey this year.

Since there are only six games left, the regular season rankings are generally determined.

The Eastern side doesn't need much attention. The Pacers, led by Bird, should be the strongest team in the Eastern Conference. They have a great chance of reaching the finals.

As for the Western Conference? The Grizzlies have undoubtedly secured the first place. The Lakers are ranked second? Their record this year is also quite outstanding, at least they can win more than 65 games. If it weren't for the Grizzlies, they would be too good.

If BUG is the case, then the Lakers will definitely win the regular season championship this year.

After the Lakers are the Trail Blazers and Jazz. The records of these two teams are slightly better than the Spurs, but in terms of strength, the three teams are actually about the same.

The Grizzlies are the first tier in the Western Conference, the Lakers are the second tier, the Trail Blazers, Jazz and Spurs are the third tier. As for the remaining three playoff teams, they are basically the Suns, Timberwolves and SuperSonics.

In other words, the Grizzlies will face the SuperSonics again in the first round this year. After advancing, they will either play the Jazz or the Spurs, then face the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals, and then face the Pacers in the Finals.

It's basically a playoff schedule, and it's definitely not difficult. The only difficulty is the Western Conference Finals series against the Lakers. However, the Lakers were shaved off by the Grizzlies in the regular season. Now it's time to say that the Lakers can overthrow the Grizzlies in the Western Conference Finals.

, certainly no one believed it, maybe even the Lakers themselves didn’t believe that such a miracle would happen.

It can be said that Jiang Dongbing's second championship is just around the corner.

Just when Jiang Dongbing was thinking, something happened on the court. Artest and Billups switched defenses to defend the breakthrough of Spurs general Avery Johnson.

Logically speaking, this is just an extremely ordinary scene in the game. The young general is an extremely rare point guard who has no three-point ability. This season, he only averaged 0.1 three-point attempts per game and his shooting percentage was only 11%. It is said that he has no three-point ability.

The three-point ability is not excessive at all.

In the absence of three-pointers, breakthroughs and mid-range shots are naturally the main offensive methods of the general. Although the Spurs have twin towers, it is impossible for all offenses to be handled by the twin towers. The outside players must still share the burden.

The little general is only 178 centimeters tall. After breaking through to the basket, he succeeded in hitting the board with extremely high difficulty, scoring two points for the Spurs.

But at the moment of scoring, Artest raised his big black elbow and hit the young general in the face.

The force of this elbow was so shocking that Jiang Dongbing could hear the sound of flesh banging while sitting on the sidelines. In just a short moment, the young general covered his cheek and fell to the ground in pain.

What kind of body does Artest have? He is definitely at the level of a beast. In fact, the physical fitness of the young general is better than that of ordinary people. Think about how a beast like Artest could elbow an ordinary person in the face.

What a scene.

Everyone was dumbfounded and didn't know what happened on the field.

Jiang Dongbing secretly said that something bad happened, Artest was probably ill...

The players on the court were stunned. They were on the court and did not see any conflict between Artest and the general. It was just a normal offensive and defensive round. No one expected that Artest would suddenly do such a cruel thing.

hand.

Billups even had a chill down his back. He was completely frightened. If this elbow hit him on the head, would he go to God on the spot?

After a brief daze, the Spurs players became furious. They elbowed their locker room leader in such a dirty way for no reason. How could they endure it?

Despite his small stature, the young general is not very strong, but in the Spurs locker room, he is a leader-like figure. Now he was hit by Artest's murderous elbow. The admiral rushed directly to Artest.

Ste.

"Dududu!" The referee whistled wildly, and he also knew that something serious was going on.

Jackson, with quick eyesight and quick hands, quickly pushed Artest to the sidelines and blocked him behind him. David, who was inside, hugged Robinson and stopped him from rushing towards Artest.

Jackson looked embarrassed. If one of his players was being bullied, he would definitely raise his arms and fight. But the embarrassment now is that his players are unreasonable, and it cannot even be said that they are unreasonable. This is already on the level of murder.

event.

So what should I do now? Help Artest beat up the attacking Robinson? This is too unkind.

Moreover, if a veteran like Robinson and his gang of young men swarm in and beat others up, they will definitely leave a bad reputation in the future, as young men with no martial ethics.

David didn't think too much, he just didn't want to make the situation on the field more complicated.

After Robinson was hugged by David, he tried to break free like a mad bull, but faced with the terrifying power of the mighty dragon, how could he break free.

Duncan was also full of anger, but he was still rational and first checked the situation of the young general on the floor.

Jiang Dongbing rushed onto the court and didn't care about the NBA's punishment. He had to settle the matter quickly.

Although this matter cannot be settled so easily, at least it cannot make the situation more difficult.

"Calm down, Ron, calm down!"

"Listen to my order and go back to the bench!" Jiang Dongbing held Artest's face in his hands and said seriously every word.

Not to mention other people, even the perpetrator, Artest, was stunned for a moment. Maybe he didn't expect why he would do such a cruel thing.

Robinson was still reluctant and his eyes were already red. An old teammate he had been with day and night was treated like this. Jiang Dongbing felt that if it were him, he would definitely be more outrageous than Robinson.

Not only Robinson, but also other Spurs players looked at Artest angrily after they came to their senses.

Jiang Dongbing immediately said: "Calm down, calm down!"

"I'm sorry. This is our players' fault. Calm down and we are willing to take all responsibilities."

In order to calm down the anger of the Spurs players, Jiang Dongbing admitted his mistake without saying anything. He really couldn't admit it. No matter who was judging the incident just now, even if it was a die-hard Grizzlies fan, it must be Artest's.

wrong.

I'm afraid even Artest's family would never favor Artest.

The nature was so bad that Jiang Dongbing's scalp went numb. We still don't know what the situation of the young general is. If he is seriously injured, Artest will definitely be in trouble.

After listening to Jiang Dongbing's words, the anger of the Spurs players calmed down a little. In addition, the referee was blowing the whistle and blocking the game frantically. After a moment of confrontation, both teams began to leave the field.

Artest sat on the sidelines with his head lowered and remained silent. No other Grizzlies player went up to talk to Artest because they also felt that Artest was going too far.

"Ron, you go back to the locker room first. I'll have a chat with you after the game." Jiang Dongbing sighed and said to Artest.

In fact, even if Jiang Dongbing doesn't let him return to the locker room, the referee will definitely give the penalty in this way.

"Coach, what's going on with Ron? How could such a good person do such a thing?" Jackson, the captain of the team, said with a confused look on his face.

"Ron has actually always been quite strange. You don't know, but he almost broke my ribs once during training!"

The person who said this was definitely not Joe, but a fringe player of the Grizzlies. Although Joe had his ribs broken by Artest in training...

Jiang Dongbing waved his hand, "Don't mention this matter for now. Let's first think about how to calm the Spurs' anger."

"We are completely unreasonable about this matter. Let's give up this game. We should give people an explanation after making such a big mistake."

Of course Jiang Dongbing didn't think that giving up this game would calm the Spurs' anger. If Artest was playing a fringe Spurs player, then this matter might not be that serious.

The key young general is the leader of the Spurs locker room, a brother of Robinson, a good brother of Duncan, and a protégé of Popovich. In the future, he will be an assistant coach to Popovich, or even step out of the Spurs to be his own man. That would be too much.

It's serious.

No matter what, Jiang Dongbing still felt that he had to lower his stance, saying that the Grizzly Bears were unreasonable about Potian.

When the Grizzlies players heard that they were giving up the game, they had no idea. After all, if something like this happened, no one would pay attention to the outcome of the game.

In fact, with the Grizzlies' current record, it doesn't matter whether they win or lose a game. If it makes the Spurs players feel better, then give up.

The young general has been carried off the court on a stretcher. No one knows the specific situation and can only wait for the post-match press conference.

The game restarted, and all the Grizzlies' main players were placed on the bench. Jiang Dongbing found a few fringe players to play.

The reason why Jiang Dongbing gave up this game was actually worried that the situation would escalate further.

Now the Spurs players are furious. In the next game, players from both sides will inevitably have conflicts. For example, there was friction at the beginning between O'Neill and Robinson. If they start fighting again in the game, it will be really difficult.

It's over.

Just as Jiang Dongbing predicted, the Spurs players were furious. When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, the Grizzlies, who were leading by 11 points in the first half, lost to the Spurs by 31 points after the game...

This is the second game the Grizzlies have lost this season and the most they have lost since Jiang Dongbing coached the Grizzlies.

The game was over and the Spurs players left the field directly.

Jiang Dongbing was thinking about what to do next. Artest's nature this time was too bad. If the general was fine, it would be okay. If something big happened to the general, Artest would be finished.

The young general himself is not a devilish man, and he is not too young. Now he is 36 years old. Being hit by a beast like Artest with such force and heavy elbow, Jiang Dongbing felt like it when he thought about it.

Headache.

After returning to the locker room with the depressed generals, Jiang Dongbing saw Artest sitting on the bench with a guilty look on his face, rubbing his fingers at the corners of his clothes, looking a little at a loss.

"You all go out and wait for a while, Ron and I will have a good chat." Jiang Dongbing sighed and said.

The generals opened the door and walked out of the locker room, while Jiang Dongbing sat next to Artest.

"Man, what's going on? What happened on the field? Why did you do that?" Jiang Dongbing asked slowly.

"Coach, I don't know. At that time, I just felt that my head was blank, and then it seemed that my body was not obeying its orders..." Artest said guiltily.

Jiang Dongbing nodded, Artest was really ill, just as he guessed.

As a patient with severe bipolar disorder, Artest has actually done similar things many times throughout his career. However, Jiang Dongbing did not take it too seriously, thinking that Artest was not that big of a threat under his hands.

Under stress, the chance of getting sick will be much smaller.
