Jamal Crawford is a nerve-wracking player, and his scoring data is very good. From the 2007-08 season to the 2009-10 season, Crawford averaged more than 19 points per game for three consecutive years.

If you look at the score alone, Crawford should be one of the best scorers in the league. It is not an exaggeration to get a tens of millions of yuan in annual salary. However, his shooting percentage and poor defense every year are the reasons why he is still not a superstar.

Crawford can score when he draws, but he basically loses his only value if he can't. Last season with the Hawks, Crawford averaged only 38.4% from the game. For an outside player, this number is simply a disaster.

This is why Crawford only earns about 5 million yuan a year in the Clippers, but is still considered a contract premium. He is a scorer with distinctive characteristics but not a superstar. But now, Denagro has to try Crawford.

Crawford replaced Willy Green and faced Iguodala's defense. But once Crawford draws, even if he faces Tony Allen, he may have a chance of winning!

Paul hit Crawford in the first round. Crawford borrowed the ball to the outside of the three-point line without the ball and then received the ball and shot. He didn't care about Iguodala's defense at all.

Iguodala has actually blocked well, but Crawford's three-point shot still hits, which makes the Clippers players angry!

"I finally scored the goal, and the Clippers finally scored the first goal of the new season after the first timeout. But as long as they can break the scoring drought, it's not too late! I said, Jamal Crawford will take the Clippers to the next level. Look, when Paul, Griffin and others can't open the situation, Crawford can stand up instead!"

John Hollinger finally spoke. As the commentator of this game, he had been "dumb" for a long time. But now, he finally had the opportunity to speak because the Clippers finally scored a goal.

"Jamaal Crawford attacked very firmly, but I must say that it was not an opportunity just now, and the Clippers still did not solve the offensive problem. The attack just now was no different from before. The only difference was that Crawford scored a difficult goal but others did not. But the question is, can Crawford score that kind of goal every time? As we all know, his offensive stability is very worrying."

Mike Brin immediately poured cold water on Hollinger. It wasn't that he deliberately fought against Hollinger, but just told the truth.

"Stay steady! We did a good job, keep going!" Seeing Crawford score, Stevens immediately rushed off the court and shouted.

At the same time, Tony Allen was ready to pick up his hands. Later, he would meet the best sixth man well.

The Grizzlies' offense was as smooth as ever. This time, when Link broke through again and attracted Jordan Jr.'s assisting defense, Link sent the ball to Gasol without looking at the back pass.

Link now works for Gasol for the third season, who has cooperated with him for the third season, and doesn't even need to watch the pass, even the ostentatious. In his mind, Link knew very well where each teammate stood.

Gasol Jr. made a steadily mid-range shot after receiving the basketball, which undoubtedly gave Jordan Jr. a knowing blow. 10 to 3, the difference between the points is still very large, and Jamal Crawford's goal seems to have no effect.

The Grizzlies bloomed more and anyone could score. On the Clippers, Paul had to send the ball to Crawford for the second time in a row.

This time, Crawford chose to break through Iguodala. His fancy dribble and extremely fast first step made him one of the league's most deadly breakthrough sharp swords.

But breakthroughs are not everything in basketball, it is competitive sports, not circus juggling. Crawford's too thin figure has always made his finishing rate at the basket worry.

It's okay to completely pass the opponent, but if Crawford cannot completely get rid of the opponent, his layup will be a loss for him.

This time it was like this. Although Iguodala was hit, she was still pressing against Crawford with his strong body. Crawford leaned against Iguodala and wanted to make a foul. But Iguodala's movements were very clean and the referee could not find a reason to play.

Iguodala has always been a very professional player. Although he has a strong defense, he is not dirty. It can even be said that he is very resistant to those dirty moves. This is similar to Tony Allen.

In Link's opinion, this is the real defensive force.

In this way, Crawford immediately became dim after continuing his highlight performance. The second offensive missed, and the Clippers continued to have a stagnant pool!

The game lasted for a few minutes, and the Clippers struggled to support the scattered personal offenses of Paul, Crawford and Griffin. Jordan Jr., Caron Butler disappeared directly on the offensive end.

In the end, when the game reached the eighth minute, the Grizzlies had already led the Clippers by 8 points.

Stevens also replaced Link, Iguodala, Randolph and Gasol at this point, leaving only Conley one point guard on the court to stabilize the situation. Only after the situation stabilized, Stevens replaced Conley.

Seeing the other party substitution, Winnie Denagro was also excited in an instant! Now, it’s time for the Clippers to perform!

"Jamar, Blake! Seize the opportunity to bombard me with storm. We must equalize the score before the end of the first quarter!" Denagro shouted excitedly. After so long, the opportunity for revenge has finally come!

But at this time, Link, who was sitting on the bench, was calm and even joked with Randolph.

He knew that the Grizzlies' substitute this season, most of the time they didn't have to worry too much.

At this time, the Grizzlies' lineup is Conley, Teacher Tony, Nick Young, Spets and Azelley.

After returning from the timeout, Conley took advantage of Speitz's cover to break through, and Griffin did not dare to act rashly.

After all, Spetz's shooting has already caused too many teams to suffer last season.

Without Griffin's assisted defense, everyone thought Conley was going to come by himself, after all, he is the only one on the field now.

As a result, Conley handed the ball to Nick Young, the defender who played 22 games with the Clippers last season and averaged only 9.7 points per game!

Last season, Nick Young's performance did not meet expectations, so the Clippers did not renew his contract. But under Stevens, Nick Young was full of vitality.

He doesn't have to worry about the organization, because there will always be an organization point on the court. He doesn't have to worry about defense, because there are too many defensive players around him.

Under the Grizzlies, under Stevens, Nick Young only did his favorite things to throw the basketball into the basket.

Compared to last season when the Clippers had to defend and compete with Bledsoe for the right to play and pass the ball, Nick Young's task for the Grizzlies is much simpler.

Therefore, he can also focus on offense now. Therefore, Yang's running without the ball is very active, and he shoots when receiving the ball, without any delay.

Nick Yang is such a master of chaos. He did not let Conley down and gave Denagro a blow with a three-pointer!

Think the Grizzlies' second lineup is easy to bully? Please, it's very dangerous here, go back to Mars and you.

Link wielded the towel for Nick Young's three-pointer off the court, and the atmosphere of the entire Grizzlies was very good. The coach and the players, the players seemed to get along very happily.

After the personnel changes of the Grizzlies, the chemistry and locker room atmosphere were completely unaffected.

Then, Crawford continued to play singles, but against Tony Allen, the defender who was selected as the best defensive team last season, Crawford said it was under great pressure.

Crawford's fancy shaking did not work at all for Teacher Tony. He just watched Crawford pretend to be on the spot, but he didn't let him pass by any step.

As long as Crawford has a little momentum to break through, Tony Allen will immediately block it.

Crawford finally chose to pull up the jump shot, but unfortunately, with Tony Allen's defensive reaction at almost the speed of light, Crawford's shot hit again!

"Ball, give me the ball!" As soon as Azeli grabbed the defensive rebound, Nick Young was not calm and tried his best to get the ball!

Just give it to the ball, no problem. Nick Young in the Clippers played a frustrated game, but under Stevens, you can play in the way you like. Stevens's platoon can make everyone exert their power.

Last season, Tony Allen played as a substitute, and the Grizzlies had excellent defense in rotation time, but no offensive points.

But this season, the Grizzlies' second team, Tony Allen is the main defense and Nick Young is the main attacker, and they do not delay each other and complement each other's shortcomings.

The basketball was handed over to Nick Young, a defender who likes offense and gets great freedom in the Grizzlies, facing Crawford, who doesn't defend much, and kills the basket and makes a forced layup!

After Nick Yang scored the goal, he yelled at the stands, as if telling the Clippers fans, "You didn't trust me at the beginning, okay, I'll make you regret it!"

The Memphis Grizzlies also produced such a flamboyant offensive player in a very alternative way.

What was the Grizzlies like in the past? Most people will answer you: Grizzlies are calm, low-key, defensive, tough, and iron-blooded!

But ostentatiousness and personality? These words seem to have nothing to do with grizzlies.

But now, the arrival of Nick Young has made the Grizzlies' style more varied. The offensive and crazy firepower are now part of the Grizzlies.

"This season, you don't have to overload." Seeing Nick Young score again, Stevens smiled at Link with his head.

When Link got full rest and then played, Stevens believed that No. 0 would not give the Clippers any chance.

After the 12-minute game, Denagro looked at the score on the big screen and felt a little incredible.

28-18, the Los Angeles Clippers scored less than 20 in the first quarter! However, the Grizzlies, who have always been known for their defense, scored almost 30 points in the first quarter!

Their lineup is impeccable, the combination of Link and Iguodala makes the Grizzlies' outside defense indestructible, and the Black and White Bears give their inside advantage. Mike Conley leads the needle and controls the rhythm.

Their substitute lineup is also not easy to mess with. Nick Young played crazy and Spetz's mid-range shot made the Clippers' defense nervous. Tony Allen and Azeli's defense prevented the Grizzlies' second lineup from collapsing. By the way, we must not forget to replace Conley with Vasquith. He and Nick Young were a perfect match, one passed the ball and the other shot, and the firepower was fast!

A terrifying, hugely progressive, almost versatile Memphis Grizzlies were placed in front of Los Angeles fans. The Grizzlies' weaknesses were filled last season, and their advantages were further sublimated last season.

The Grizzlies' strong strength this season has been shown for the first time in Staples!

The Grizzlies were 10 points behind the single quarter, which made Staples become lifeless.

At the beginning of the second quarter, when John Hollinger saw Link who was resting and taking the game back, a feeling of despair suddenly surged into his heart.
Chapter completed!
