Yu Jia sighed: "Superstars have this kind of strength. They are obviously evenly matched, and they exert their strength in an instant, which completely deflects the situation of the game."
Pause back, the game continues.
The Mavericks have changed their starters one after another, and Nuo Tianwang, who played the first quarter, is also back. Obviously, their coach Rick Carlisle can't sit still, and they can't do without a timeout.Damn, who wants to pause, it's not forced by you.
Pause back, the game continues.Xie Kai's state in this quarter is really hot. Even if the Mavericks timed out and used flank tactics after the timeout, they couldn't completely stop him from scoring.
Xie Kai scored 20 points in a single quarter, creating a new record for his scoring in a single quarter in the playoffs (the previous highest was 18 points). At the end of the half, his statistics had reached 25 points, 3 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 assists. Steal 1 block and performed very well.
Under Xie Kai's unsolvable performance, the Grizzlies led 47:39 at halftime.
In the second half of the game, the Mavericks began to flank Xie Kai, blocking him in advance without the ball and preventing him from receiving the ball.But it doesn't help at all.The Grizzlies did not rely entirely on Xie Kai to score, and the black and white bears began to take over the game.Relying on a stable defense and a stronger inside offense, the Mavericks' goal of trying to cut off the connection between Xie Kai and his teammates still failed to achieve.
The lead wasn't much, but the Mavericks seemed unable to catch up.
From the beginning of the 3rd quarter to the end of the 4th quarter, the Mavericks exhausted various methods, but were unable to catch up with the score.In the end, the game ended, and the Grizzlies at home defeated their opponents 98:89, ushering in their first victory in the playoffs.
谢开本场比赛出战38分12秒，26投14中，其中3分球7投4中，罚球12罚10中，砍下全场最高的42分，外加6个篮板8次助攻3个抢断1个盖帽。
This is Xie Kai's fourth 4+ in the NBA playoffs. He also created a new record (40 points) for scoring in a single quarter of the NBA playoffs in this game.
After this game, the Grizzlies rewritten the big score of the series to 1:0.
After the game, Xie Kai accepted the reporter's interview.
When the reporter asked him why he suddenly stepped up his offense in the second quarter, Xie Kai explained: "The second quarter was very tense, and I just wanted to help the team break the deadlock. .”
"Didn't you expect to have broken your personal scoring record in a single quarter?" the reporter asked.
Xie laughed and said: "I didn't think about it that much. I just feel good and want to help the team, so I played a few more games. Of course it's a good thing to break the record."
The Grizzlies beat the Mavericks at home, and the result was not surprising, but everyone watched the process and knew that it was not easy for them to win.The Mavericks are not fat, they are a championship team, but the players are old and their peak has passed.
That's it.If the Mavericks players are 5 years younger, it's really hard to say who will win this game.
Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said in an interview: "Kane's performance is the key to the final outcome of the game. I don't want to say that, but he did perform very well. The series is not over yet, and we will rebound."
The Grizzlies won their first victory, and the team's morale is very good and they are full of confidence.The victory in this game was hard-won. The opponent was very tough and experienced, so it was difficult to deal with.
G2 of the series is still played at the home court of the Grizzlies. After winning G1, the mentality of the home team has improved a lot. Even if the opponent changes in G2, they are confident that they can beat the opponent again.
On April 4, the NBA officially announced the 22-2013 season coach of the year winners.Coach Dave Jogel, the head coach of the Memphis Grizzlies from the West, was awarded the award.This is the first time he has won this honor since he served as an NBA head coach.This season, he led the team to 14 wins, creating a record in team history and the best record in the league.You must know that this is still his second season as the NBA coach.In his rookie season, he led his team to the finals and won the championship.
As an NBA coach, Dave Jogel is very lucky, and his coaching career has been perfect so far.Of course, some outsiders said that he just hugged the thighs of Xie Kai and Black and White Shuangxiong, but it is also Xie Kai and Black and White Shuangxiong. Why did the former coach Lionel Hollins lead the team and fail to reach the top?Even if you say it's due to luck, but in terms of results, Dave Jogel is completely awesome.
Dave Jogel is naturally happy.It is not so easy to win the best coach. Even if it is a well-known coach in the league, many of them have never won it.It is not easy for him to win this award in his second season as the team coach.
In an interview, he said: "I am very happy to get this award for the best coach. I am very grateful to my colleagues in the coaching staff and the team for their support. Of course, I also want to thank my players. It's impossible to get this award. Now in the playoffs process, I hope this award will give us good luck."
Xie Kai and other Grizzlies players congratulated coach Dave Jogel for winning the award.Whether it's business bragging or sincere blessings, this is the first time in the history of the Grizzlies that a coach has won this award.
It is foreseeable that this season will be the year that the Grizzlies have won the most honors in the regular season. Now the best coach is announced, and the regular season MVP after that, Xie Kai is also the favorite to win the award.
On the evening of April 4, the Grizzlies continued to face the Mavericks at home.
In this game, the Mavericks have changed!They took the main point guard Calderon and let Devin Harris start!Other starters remain unchanged.
The Grizzlies are still the starting lineup for the last game.Their lineup is very stable. Even in the finals of last season, they did not change their starting lineup until the last game.So some people are talking about which team can force them to change in order to become their real opponent in the playoffs.
This game is very important to both sides. If the Mavericks want to grab home court advantage and regain the initiative in the series, they need to win this game.
After the start of the game, the Mavericks double-teamed Xie Kaikai.
It's not that Xie Kai has never experienced double-teaming. His speed and passing vision make him one of the worst players in the league.But the Mavericks seem to have no choice. The single defense in the last game made them suffer.
Indeed, the Mavericks had no choice but to do so. The Grizzlies' old prince and Conley on the outside and the black and white bears on the inside felt good, so the pinching effect was very limited.
The Mavericks' own offense is limited by the opponent's aggressive defense, and it is also a bit unsustainable.
The process of the game was less suspenseful than the previous game. At the end of the game, the Grizzlies easily defeated their opponents at home and made another victory, rewriting the big score of the series to 2:0.
