Stephen scored eight points in a row in the remaining two minutes of the third quarter, but not only failed to close the point difference, but was also widened to 26 points by the opponent. In the middle, the two sides entered the fourth quarter with a huge point difference.

A large number of fans poured into the Key Center arena today, and almost all the seats were filled. Stephen's performance in the All-Star Game once again increased his popularity among the local fans in Seattle. "Slogan, this MVP does not refer to the MVP of the All-Star Game, but the MVP of the regular season.

The reason why the fans came to watch this game is to see an easy and big victory. Their thinking is the same as that of the coaching staff. How can the Grizzlies in such a state give the Supersonics, which is ranked second in the Western Conference? The team caused trouble.

What they didn't expect was that the Grizzlies were not just causing trouble for the Sonics, but were leading the Sonics by a big score. This result was difficult for them to accept, but there was still a whole quarter of the game , and it is not that the Sonics have reversed their opponents with a big score. They are convinced that as long as there is the omnipotent Stephen, the 25-point difference is nothing at all.

In fact, the difference of 25 points is like the gap between you and your opponent in track and field. If the gap is too large, even if your speed is very fast, because your opponent is also advancing, you have to redouble your efforts to be able to win. able to outperform the opponent.

In basketball, a point difference of 25 points means that you have to score 25 points more than your opponent to catch up with them, and the average score of all teams in a single quarter in the league is only 24 points and 25 points. This difficulty can be imagined , unless the Sonics can keep the Grizzlies scoreless, no matter how many points the Grizzlies score, the Sonics will have [-] points more than others.

In this way, the Sonics need to score [-] points or more in a single quarter to be able to win the game. Even if Stephen's scoring ability is strong, this is a difficult task to complete, let alone the Grizzlies today. The state of the team is so good.

At this time, Carlesimo has nothing to say. He can only let the players strengthen their defense. The 25-point difference has basically reached the stage of doing their best to obey the destiny. Even Stephen has no absolute confidence in winning the game. Can do my best.

There is no way, in a game, if one or two players explode, it is considered unlucky, let alone three or four. Regardless of the Grizzlies, Navarro alone scored [-] points As mentioned above, several other players have not scored more than [-] points, but you must know that whether it is Kyle Lowry or Warrick, they are all guys who average less than [-] points per game.

Under normal circumstances, when the coaching staff formulates tactics, they are calculated according to the average performance of the players. Under normal circumstances, if someone performs beyond the level, someone must perform abnormally. Played too much beyond the level.

Navarro scored 22 points, Kyle Lowry scored [-] points, Warrick scored [-] points, and Rudy Gay scored [-] points. Except for Rudy Gay, whose performance was similar to normal, the others have exceeded their usual performance. performance, and the game has only played three quarters, and there is still a full quarter.

, And this kind of situation is blooming everywhere, who you want to focus on defending, if you can’t focus on defense, tactics are out of the question, and the scores of the Grizzlies are not tactical scores, they are purely personal scores, except for players to strengthen their own defense Besides, there is no way.

After a brief arrangement, Carlesimo asked the players to take a break. Stephen sat there frowning, thinking about how to break this situation. No matter how good his own defense is, it is impossible to defend several people Yeah, and no matter how good the defense is, people can score with just a throw. No matter how good your defense is, what good is it?

In the fourth quarter, Grizzlies head coach Mark Ivaroni replaced Navarro, Kyle Lowry stayed on the field, formed a backcourt combination with Michael Miller, and the forward line was still Rudy Gay and Warrick has two, and the center is Dakomilicic. Except that the point guard is replaced by Kyle Lowry, it is basically a starting lineup.

Stephen switched defensive opponents with Durant, he went to defend Rudy Gay, and let Durant defend Michael Miller, who knew that Michael Miller shot him at the beginning of the fourth quarter The first three-pointer since then, and after Watson missed the shot, the rebound was grabbed by Dakomilicic, and Michael Miller broke through and caused a foul on Durant, although he only made one of two free throws , but it also widened the point difference to 29 points, which is only one point away from [-] points.

Could it be that it was this guy's turn to break out again in the fourth quarter? After coming back, Stephen made a mid-range shot steadily. After scoring two points, he caused a foul by Rudy Gay. Just to be cautious, Stephen even easily The free throw method for emptying the toilet that is not used has been taken out, so I am afraid that the penalty will not be scored.

This time it was replaced by Stephen to defend Michael Miller. Michael Miller failed to find a shot and had to pass the ball. Rudy Gay’s attack at the basket was destroyed by Durant and went out of the sideline. After re-serving, Michael Miller's pass was intercepted by Stephen again.

Turning back, Stephen made a strong hit to the basket. After attracting Dakomilisi's defense, he reached out and passed the ball to Coupard. Coupard took off and dunked, adding two more points for the team and also The point difference narrowed to 24 points.

But after coming back, Kyle Lowry ran over Watson like a fully loaded car. After rushing to the basket, he scored two points with a small throw. Players of the same level and height have always performed very well, but when they meet Kyle Lowry, they seem to have met their nemesis.

I really don't know what's going on with such a player. Why didn't he even make a start in the Grizzlies? In addition, at least in this game, he did not show any convincing strength.

Turning back, Stephen assisted Durant with a three-pointer, but Rudy Gay immediately responded with a one-stop layup. It is not necessarily possible to catch up in the game, let alone less than one quarter.

Stephen dunked and scored two points. When he came back, Kyle Lowry easily pushed Watson aside, went to the basket and scored two points with a throw. If this continues, the Sonics can catch up. The score was scored, but the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't score.

Watson missed the shot, Coupard grabbed the rebound and handed it to Stephen, Stephen passed the ball to Durant again, Durant's shot also failed, Stephen grabbed the rebound again, shot himself, but was also caught by the basket The frame was blocked, but luckily grabbed the rebound again.

After several consecutive misses, Stephen was also a little anxious, but his strong attack at the basket accidentally caused a foul by Rudy Gay. After making two free throws, he finally completed the attack. It was Stephen who grabbed the rebound, and after coming back, he made a quick three-pointer alone, which perfectly interpreted the style of the season's scoring champion.

The Grizzlies were frightened by Stephen's madness for a while. When Kyle Lowry dribbled the ball, Stephen went up to grab it, scaring him into a panic. The ball in his hand was shot by Watson, and Stephen jumped to the top. Sliding down two meters on the ground, grabbed the ball, lay on the ground and passed it to Durant, getting an assist.

Another 2 minutes passed, and the Sonics finally narrowed the point difference to only [-] points. Although Stephen only made two shots and made one, he sent three assists, grabbed two rebounds, and gave Kyle Lowry makes a block.

Mark Avaloni saw that the situation was not very good, stood up and called a timeout, replaced Kyle Lowry, and replaced Mike Conley. It seems that he still believes in his starting point guard at the critical time Seeing the unhappy look on Kyle Lowry's face when he left the court, Stephen suddenly thought that the team wanted to reinforce the position of point guard. Isn't this guy in front of him a good candidate.

Although this guy is about the same height as Watson and Ridnor, his physique is much stronger than both of them. A tall point guard, but after looking around, there is no suitable target.

Although there are many point guards of this type, either the salary exceeds the team's requirements, or the player's ability does not meet the team's requirements, and those who are capable may not be willing to come here. The Sonics' point guard doesn't have the ball, so he dribbles the ball past half court, and then he can do a spot-up shooter with peace of mind.

After counting and counting, the most suitable target is "Little Fish" Fisher, but this season, Fisher left the Utah Jazz due to his daughter's illness and returned to the Los Angeles Lakers, trying to steal from the Lakers. , neither Presti nor Carlesimo thought it was possible.

Although Fisher is not too tall, he is very strong. At the same time, his experience and his psychological quality of daring to shoot at critical moments are all in line with the needs of the Sonics. Today, after Stephen saw Kyle Lowry, I feel that Kyle Lowry is also more suitable for the team's requirements.

Now he has scored 24 points, four rebounds and three assists, and this was achieved in less than 28 minutes of playing time, and when the team has made up its mind to train Mike Conley as the main point guard, it is inevitable. He himself is willing to leave Memphis, but I don't know if he is willing to come to Seattle.
