He just played basketball and became the chosen one.

Chapter 226 225: The strongest regular season performance in history! Cherish it, LeBron, there&#039

Nowitzki wasn't too upset after the game.

Because his team was not defeated by Ryan's super long-distance kill until the last 3 seconds.

This is enough to prove that the Dallas Mavericks are closer to defeating the Nuggets than most teams in the West!

They pushed Ryan to the edge of the cliff again!

However, the outside world did not notice this at all.

Everyone is immersed in the glow of the myth of 33 consecutive victories.

The moment the game ended, all memories of the Mavericks disappeared from fans' minds.

They will not remember how well the Mavericks played in this game, nor how terrifying Nowitzki and Terry's firepower was.

All memories of the Mavericks merge into one sentence: "They couldn't stop the Nuggets."

This is exactly why they are underestimated.

However, Ryan did not underestimate the Mavericks. He knew very well that the German tank would be one of his biggest opponents this season.

On the sidelines, the Flying Pig Jazz's heartbeat has not slowed down yet.

In the last 3 seconds, when Tyson Chandler made a tip-in, Fliggy really thought he was going to run away today.

Although Chandler's goal only allowed the Mavericks to equalize, if the game enters overtime, everything will be difficult to say.

No, Fliggy even thinks that the Nuggets will lose.

Because of that perfect score, the Mavericks had completely overwhelmed the Nuggets in terms of momentum. And the touch of Dirk and Terry today was too magical.

If overtime is played, the Nuggets will be in trouble.

Although Barkley had previously said that if the Nuggets could not win 33 consecutive games, he would tear open his clothes in public and run away, but to be honest, he did not want to expose his belly, which is more prominent than an 8-month pregnant woman, in public.

He doesn’t want to be a perpetual clown in basketball.

One such character is enough in the basketball world!

Thank God, Ryan's incredible long three-point shot saved him from humiliation!

That shot saved the team and Charles Barkley's moral integrity.

Feizhu untied his tie and opened two buttons of his shirt.

The refreshing cold air enters the body, giving Feizhu a feeling of "finally coming back to life."

But tonight, most teams across the league felt a strong sense of suffocation.

33 consecutive wins, the longest winning streak in NBA history.

Moreover, it was created by a team that did not have a second All-Star player for the season except Ryan!

This makes most teams in the league have no hope of defeating the Nuggets!

There are still 19 games before the start of the playoffs, but many teams feel at this moment that they have lost the playoffs!

The Nuggets' brilliant record makes many teams not even know what it means to squeeze into the playoffs.

Is it just to be killed by Ryan and the Nuggets?

At least that's what Doc Rivers thinks now. He knows better than anyone else that his Celtics can't beat the Nuggets no matter what.

Even if the Big Three were each three or four years younger, they probably wouldn't be able to do it!

The reason the Celtics have looked promising the past two years is because

It's because Ryan is not here!

Another example is Popovich, who knows that his brilliant regular season record this year has turned into a bunch of meaningless numbers.

Now if the Spurs meet the Nuggets in the playoffs, they will probably be swept!

This may be the first time that there are still 19 games left until the start of the playoffs, but someone has already lost a game in the playoffs.

The deterrent power of 33 consecutive victories is so terrifying!

That night, Ryan took the players to a nightclub to celebrate.

Ryan himself is not in the mood to celebrate. In his opinion, no matter how great the 33-game winning streak is, it is only in the regular season.

But Ryan can't use his own mentality to ask others.

Do you want Matthews to work diligently without the ball for 48 minutes without any complaints?

Want Love to fight for position at the basket every night?

Want Millsap to curb his offensive talents and put most of his energy on the defensive end?

Do you want those substitute players to accept their roles honestly?

If you want them to do this without negative emotions, you have to let them relax occasionally.

Everyone on the Nuggets also cares about Ryan, and found a mixed-race Asian and European for Ryan, who has the appearance of an Asian and the fat butt of a European and American.

Seeing that Ryan was hesitant, Artest also helped Ryan with psychological counseling:

"She is your fan, she is just more willing to give than other fans."

But Ryan still didn't take her home. Even if such fans brought sports protective equipment, they might have been punctured.

Besides, Kelly had already prepared the "Sexy Female Colleagues in the Office" themed meal at home that Ryan liked.

We already have signed players, so there is no need to look for free agents.

After all, some things are more comfortable when worn out.

The day after the Nuggets won 33 games in a row, the Miami Heat defeated the Orlando Magic at the American Airlines Center.

James only scored 15 points today, and he is still not used to the Magic's defense.

But Wade's 26 points and the Magic's poor three-point touch today saved James' game.

As a team that relies heavily on three-pointers, the Magic's three-point shooting percentage today was only 16.7%.

This is undoubtedly a failure of the one-star, four-shooter strategy.

And this easy victory also gave James confidence.

It feels so good to think that the magic that I couldn't defeat no matter how hard I tried at the beginning can now be won without any effort!

James, who was in a good mood, also spoke eloquently at the post-game press conference:

"We don't need so many exaggerated winning streaks, we just keep our feet on the ground."

"I don't care about other teams at all. My goal is the championship."

"The record in the regular season doesn't mean everything. I just know that we are in good shape now and can make a big difference in the playoffs."

James' answer was based on Ryan's 33-game winning streak last night.

What "doesn't need so many winning streaks" and what "regular season record doesn't mean everything".

It’s just an attitude of “It’s not that we don’t want to take it, it’s just that it’s not necessary.”

In reality, there are many such people:

"It's not that I can't afford a BMW and Mercedes-Benz, but a car is just a means of transportation. I only know so-and-so, and they only drive a Fit if they have a net worth of several hundred million. So, why buy this kind of car?"

Obviously you can't get it, but you still look down on it and mock everyone who can get it as a fool.

It's so disingenuous that it's upsetting.

James' attitude naturally annoyed some reporters at the scene.

A reporter raised his hand and stood up:

"LeBron, don't you need so many winning streaks, or are you just not going to get them?"

James' smiling expression disappeared instantly, and his face darkened:

"What do you want to express?"

He couldn't believe that a reporter dared to attack him so directly.

Aren’t you afraid that I will never accept an interview with you again?

James thought that by putting on an angry expression, he would make the other party quit.

But the reporter’s voice was still loud:

"What do I want to express? Are you sure you really want me to say it?"

James nodded: "You are free to say what you want."

“Then I’m telling you, you don’t need it, you just can’t get it!

Ryan, he is truly unnecessary!

He doesn't need so many All-Star teammates to lead the team to achieve results.

And you, if it weren't for Dwayne today, you would be repaired by Howard again!

He doesn't need any regular season record or winning streak, because he has already won three championships.

And you, you haven't even won a championship yet, how can you have the nerve to despise the honor of the regular season?

Sorry LeBron, but you are jealous of him and you are not willing to let the gap between you get wider and wider. This is a fact!

After 33 consecutive victories, Ryan has left you so hard that you can’t even see the taillights! "

The entire press conference fell silent instantly. James looked around in panic, feeling as if someone had stripped him naked in public!

The Heat's press officer hurriedly left the game and prepared to ask the reporter out.

But he persisted:

"You're a great player LeBron, but please stop with the hypocrisy and embarrassing bragging!"

James' hands were trembling, damn, what are you doing?

A counter-attack, right? ?

Since joining the Heat, James has simply become a villain.

Fewer and fewer people respect him.

Now, some reporters even dare to humiliate themselves in person.

This is simply

Looking at the reporters being asked out, James' trembling hands suddenly froze.

so what?

I really need star teammates, and I really can't beat Ryan's 33-game winning streak.

But as long as I am the one who wins in the end, no matter what method is used, as long as I am the one who wins in the end!

Everything will be reversed!

James also stood up directly, turned around and left the press conference.

Before leaving, he only left one sentence: "I will definitely bring a championship trophy to Miami!"

Reporters pressed the shutter frantically, and news spread rapidly on the Internet:

"James was so angry with the Nuggets' 33-game winning streak that he left the game!"

"Ruthlessly expose the mask of hypocrisy! LeBron is jealous of Ryan's achievements!"

"Can the Big Three really succeed in the finals?"

This incident made fans look forward to the encounter between the Heat's Big Three and the Nuggets in the finals.

Stern is happy to see this situation. Sure enough, sometimes it takes some "uncontrollable" reporters to make the story of this league exciting.

James was overwhelmed by Ryan's 33-game winning streak and became completely furious.

But Ryan, he didn't pay any attention to what James said.

After killing the Mavericks with a super long-range three-pointer, the Nuggets rested for two days and then killed the Toronto Raptors led by Anthony.

Extended the winning streak to 34 games.

First in history!

One day later, in back-to-back games against New York, Stoudemire scored 37 points, but Ryan still won 35 consecutive victories!

Previously, Ryan was not too excited on the night of his 33rd consecutive victory.

At that time, people speculated that Ryan might just be dissatisfied with tying the record. He wanted to break the record, so he was not particularly excited.

So with 35 consecutive wins today, Ryan should be excited, right?

But in the reporters' shots, Ryan still looked calm:

"I can only give our performance this season 60 points now. If we can win the championship, it will be 100 points."

The reporter deliberately asked: "35 consecutive victories and only 60 points? Some people will divide 70% at every turn."

"Don't compare him to me. It's not that he is bad, it's mainly because my requirements are a bit high.

You and I both know that I will not lose to him in this year's finals! "

Ryan now really wants to skip the regular season and directly enter the playoffs.

But the fans don't want the regular season to end like this. They still hope that the Nuggets will continue their winning streak.

It's a pity that the 35-game winning streak is the end of this historical record.

Because one day later, the invincible battleship that fought back to back for 35 consecutive victories ran aground in Memphis.

The Grizzlies have not received much attention this season, especially after their star Rudy Gay was reimbursed, this team has become even less interesting.

But the fact is exactly the opposite. After Rudy Gay was absent due to injury, the Grizzlies played better!

No stray shots, no inefficient mid-range shots. The Grizzlies began to play positional battles meticulously and began to defend every ball.

In the original history, after Gay was injured, the Grizzlies had a good record of 17 wins and 8 losses, and the winning rate increased by 14 percentage points compared with before Gay was injured.

Without Gay, the Memphis Grizzlies seemed to have changed their souls and began to frequently create upsets in the league.

Including today's event.

87 to 82, the Nuggets lost by 5 points. The longest winning streak in NBA history stopped at 35 games.

However, 35 consecutive wins is already quite an achievement.

After the game, many people felt: "God just can't bear to let the poor Memphis people suffer anymore."

The implication: The Grizzlies are out of luck.

But in fact, this game made Ryan wary. He knew that the Grizzlies were not just lucky.

Like the Mavericks, the Grizzlies also defeated the Nuggets twice this season!

The Nuggets' interior defense was completely unable to withstand the devastation of the Black and White Bears.

Tony Allen's defensive ability caused Ryan's outside jump shot percentage to fluctuate.

It is difficult to achieve the effect of directly killing people while playing against the Magic and Spurs.

At first glance, Ryan also scored 34 points today, and his 43% shooting rate is considered acceptable for an outside line.

But if someone else were to defend him, Ryan might be able to increase his shooting rate to 50%!

In that case, the final winner won't be the Grizzlies.

Tony's good defense does not lie in his ability to directly lock down a certain superstar.

There is no player in this world who can directly lock down a certain superstar.

But Tony is able to reduce the efficiency of almost every superstar he plays against, and this is what's scary about him.

The outside shots are not stable enough. Of course Ryan also wants to hit inside?

Sorry, the Grizzlies' interior defense is also very good.

A team cannot become a defensive powerhouse with just one defender.

Because no matter how strong the defense of the defender is, it cannot support a defensive system.

Payton was able to limit Jordan thanks to the formidable forward group around him.

Tony can be so scary thanks to the black and white bears behind him.

After Randolph arrived in Memphis, his defensive enthusiasm increased greatly.

As for Gasol, he doesn't have many shot-blocking statistics, and his blockbuster scenes are not as earth-shattering as World of Warcraft.

But Gasol is one of the most balanced and versatile centers in active defense. He has excellent height, wingspan and tonnage, as well as excellent defensive awareness, defensive judgment, defensive positioning and defensive skills.

He may not be able to block shots, but he can greatly reduce the opponent's efficiency in attacking the frame.

In his career, he has won the "Kneeling Emperor Award" and "Single Change Grandma Award", which shows his strength.

The Great, the strongest Cameroonian French-American center. King's milk, FIBA's legendary basket tyrant.

If you can compare with them, you know Xiaojia's ability.

Therefore, facing the Grizzlies, it is difficult for Ryan to be truly efficient whether he is attacking the frame or shooting jumpers.

He won't be directly locked up, but his efficiency just won't improve. It's always just a little short of killing the game.

In addition, Conley's defensive ability is also very strong at the first position. Battier will always appear in every gap.

Coupled with that skillful rotation, the Grizzlies defense is simply art!

A defensive, slow-paced team like theirs may make the game unwatchable, but it is definitely a strategy that can truly win.

The Memphis Grizzlies are by no means the eighth-level team in the Western Conference!

Ryan remembers the 2011 playoffs in the original history. The Grizzlies beat the Spurs eight times in one breath, and then fought fiercely with the Thunder's three young men until the tiebreaker before losing.

And in that series, to be honest, the whistle was a bit biased towards the Thunder. Otherwise, there is no guarantee who will advance.

Therefore, the Grizzlies are definitely a team with the potential to qualify for the Western Conference Finals!

The reason why they are ranked eighth is purely because Gay, their star player, was injured too late.

However, just like the Mavericks who almost beat the Nuggets before, no one cares about the Grizzlies.

No one cares about their excellence.

People are discussing the Nuggets' 35-game winning streak and their brilliant regular season record.

However, no one at this time expected that 35 consecutive wins would not be Ryan's final honor in this year's regular season.

The Nuggets won 14 of the remaining 16 games in the regular season.

One loss was to the Heat, but that did not excite James fans because Ryan was unable to play that day because he contracted the flu.

The other game was lost to the Thunder. It was also a game with nothing to talk about. All members of the Thunder team had a three-point shooting.

And when the Nuggets defeated the Jazz on the last day of the season, two more records that were thought to be impossible to touch again were touched by Ryan.

"A victory without any suspense! This is also the Nuggets' 72nd victory in a single season!

Needless to say, Ryan’s greatness!

We never thought that there would be another team in the world that won 70 games in the regular season.

We never thought that this Denver Nuggets team could achieve such results.

The Nuggets' starting five include the No. 1 pick, a lottery pick, a second-round pick, and even an undrafted pick.

Their structure does not conform to people's impression of a strong team, but they have done things that countless strong teams cannot do!

When the Nuggets formed this team last summer, no one thought they could win more than 55 games.

Last summer, we all thought this would be a season for the Heat's Big Three.

But now, the Nuggets are on the same level as the 96 Bulls!

And the Heat are not even first in the Eastern Conference!

35 consecutive wins followed by 72 wins, the Nuggets' dominance this season is unquestionable.

Ryan personally also scored 35.2 points, 10.4 rebounds, 10.8 assists, 2.1 steals, and 2.4 blocks this season, historical data!

That's right, the first since Oscar Robertson to average a triple-double!

Ryan, who had not played well for two years, put the whole world to shame when he came back!

With 72 wins in a single season, 35 consecutive wins, and a triple-double per game, is Ryan the best in history?

I'm not sure yet, but he's at least a compelling candidate! "

After Mike Breen finished speaking, the Miami fans broke through the defense.

No, now you can’t say anything other than yin and yang and heat, right?

Can this really affect the Heat's second-best record in the Eastern Conference?

What happened to the second one?

The second one is not bad either!

The Heat have simply become a joke around the world.

Last summer, they formed a giant three. Before the start of the season, the media exaggeratedly said that the Heat could win 82 consecutive games.

As a result, they didn't even win 60 games this season, and their record was worse than the Bulls led by third-year Rose!

Now everyone knows why Rose didn't bother to recruit Wade and Ajan.

Between the two of them, Rose can't go alone.

It's incomparable to Ryan, who has 72 wins.

After the game, someone also asked Ryan how to compare the Heat and Nuggets' records this season.

I thought Ryan would use the topic as an excuse, but he just spread his hands:

"Performance in the regular season is just a reference. Who can survive to the end in the playoffs will have to be played to find out.

All we have to do now is focus on continuing the magic of the regular season into the playoffs.

As for comparison, there is no need for that, right?

This is not 72 wins versus 70 wins, this is 72 wins versus 58 wins.

There is nothing to compare with, the difference is obvious. "

Ryan doesn't have any yin and yang aura, he just shows disdain!

At this time, Ryan really wasn't in the mood to care about the Heat.

For the Heat, Ryan is very confident that he can win.

But with two opponents, Ryan now has to be very careful.

After this year's rankings are officially released, the Nuggets' opponent in the first round will be the Memphis Grizzlies, who previously broke the Nuggets' winning streak!

The opponent in the second round is the winner between the Lakers and Thunder.

In the third round, they have to face the Dallas Mavericks, who have 2 wins and 2 losses against the Nuggets in this year's regular season!

The Grizzlies and Mavericks are the only two teams that can beat the Nuggets twice this season!

The Nuggets lost a total of 10 games a season, and they contributed 40%.

Therefore, it is not to blame Ryan for being such a scumbag and abandoning Ajan.

Mainly because the temptation outside is really too great!

You have to defeat them first before you can beat Ajan in the finals.

The colorful flags outside must be fixed first before the red flags in Azhan's house can flutter.

Who is following whom, Ryan or Ajan? The beating was like beating his own son.

But the Grizzlies and Mavericks probably couldn't accept such a beating from Ryan.

Because the Nuggets' results in the regular season were so dazzling, the whole world felt that it was certain that they would pass the first round.

Are grizzly bears strong? Come on, what kind of person would go to a Grizzlies game?

The Grizzlies' national live broadcast games this entire season combined are less than the Nuggets' national live broadcast games in half a month.

Therefore, not many people have watched the Grizzlies play at all, and even if they have, they can't remember it.

Everyone only knows that the Grizzlies are a team that lost its star player Gay and barely made it to the playoffs.

Little did they know that the grizzly bear had completed its transformation.

And judging from his behavior in previous seasons, Ryan has never liked to waste time in the first round.

Then, when the Grizzlies defeated the Nuggets 98-92 in Game 1 of the playoffs.

The whole world is stupid!

"Impossible! How is this possible? The 46-win Grizzlies defeated the 72-win Nuggets!"

"The most unexpected upset ever! Denver Miners get off to a bad start!"

"Amazing Memphis man, played an amazing game!"

“It’s worth mentioning that this is the first playoff win in the history of the Memphis Grizzlies!

In their first win, they defeated a legendary team! "

Memphis was in jubilation. This small city with no sense of existence felt respect for the first time.

How did the Nuggets lose?

Lose because the hit rate is too low!

The Grizzlies' defense does not always pursue a double attack.

Therefore, there are not many open three-point opportunities for the Nuggets.

It just so happened that Ryan didn't feel good today, and his shots were frequently blocked by Tony Allen.

Tony Allen's defensive ability is even stronger now than when he played in the 2008 Finals.

He is more mature, smarter and calmer.

Aside from being slightly shorter, he's an almost perfect perimeter defender.

To defend this thing, physical condition is the foundation. Such as lateral speed, wingspan, etc.

Execution and enthusiasm are the second level. Many players are in very good physical condition, but because they are too lazy to defend, they are still stabbed by thousands of people, such as Anthony.

Anticipation, skills, positional sense, etc. are the third level. With physical fitness and attitude, if the defensive skills are okay, then he is a terrible defensive player.

Tony Allen is such a defensive player with top-notch abilities at all three levels!

After this game, Ryan also admitted that Tony is worthy of being a defensive player praised by most scoring masters.

However, the result of this game did not change people's psychological expectations.

Fans still feel that the Nuggets just took a nap.

How could the Grizzlies cause trouble for the Nuggets.

But in Denver's second home game, the Grizzlies produced exactly the same result!

Of course, the process is different.

In the second battle, Ryan, who was feeling hot, was no longer held down by Tony.

He scored 43 points in the game, leaving Tony Allen exhausted.

But the Grizzlies, they controlled the rest of the Nuggets.

The most important thing is that the Black and White Bears penetrated the Nuggets inside!

Randolph scored 31 points, and Millsap couldn't withstand the big-ass fat guy's recoil.

Marc Gasol even scored 24 points on 9 of 10 shots!

That's right, a full 90% hit rate!

With Kevin Love being outnumbered in both height and strength, he was completely unable to restrict the Great White Bear at the basket!

Ryan naturally knows to help defend, but no matter how strong he is, he can't help defend Randolph and Gasol at the same time.

When Ryan goes to the basket to double-check Gasol, Randolph will get a singles opportunity.

Similarly, when Ryan went to help defend Randolph, the Black Bears were able to find Gasol under the basket immediately and let him eat Love alone.

The Nuggets originally formed this lineup because looking at the entire league, low-post offensive teams are almost extinct.

But who would have thought that the Memphis Grizzlies would inherit the last will of this traditional style of play!

Unexpectedly, the Nuggets met the Grizzlies in the playoffs!

The problem of the Nuggets being too short inside was completely addressed in the playoffs!

In the second game, in addition to maintaining their defensive level, the Grizzlies also played well on the offensive end.

The Grizzlies won the Nuggets' first two home games and took a 2-0 lead as the eighth seed in the Western Conference.

It is not difficult to imagine how shocked the whole world was.

A team that won a historic 35 games during the regular season.

A team that won 72 games all season.

A team whose star player averages a triple-double per game.

In the first round of the playoffs, facing the eighth place, they lost two games in a row!

For a moment, the media who were eager to see the Nuggets get into trouble went crazy:

"Facts have proven once again that offensive teams are only as good as the regular season."

"Defense wins championships, it is an eternal truth!"

"The Memphis Grizzlies told the world that the old-school style of play has not been completely eliminated!"

“So I’ve said it before, it’s not rigorous to judge Ryan based on his regular season achievements.

Have you ever seen the best player in history get hacked? "

"The playoffs are different. The playoffs are always more targeted. Our expectations for the Nuggets are a little too high."

The morale of the Grizzlies players was also boosted.

Tony Allen was extremely excited after winning the second game:

“We just tried our best to defend, not giving them any space to shoot, and then attacked in a way that made Ryan as uncomfortable as possible.

When Ryan, the leading light, doesn't turn on, the rest of the Nuggets naturally can't find a way forward. "

The prodigal black bear roared passionately:

"I'm willing to give everything for Memphis! I know you don't believe it, but I'm going to start winning!"

Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins even admitted directly:

“We played the Denver Nuggets on purpose!

If we play against the Spurs or the Mavericks, we may not have the advantage.

Because they have Duncan and Tyson inside.

But the Nuggets are a team without a traditional inside line, so our offense will be easier.

And, we beat them twice in the regular season.

Although Ryan is amazing, although the Nuggets' 35 consecutive wins and 72 wins are as incredible as a fairy tale.

But we are definitely more confident against the Nuggets! "

As soon as Hollins said this, he, who was originally unknown, instantly became famous all over the United States.

Deliberately sniping a 72-win team?

I don’t know if Hollins is capable, but he is really brave!

When these guys go to eat the fruit plate, I'm afraid they all yell, "No, no one under 40, it's not challenging."

But Hollins is just pretending, and he is about to do it to snipe the 72-win team!

With just two more wins, his Grizzlies will become the greatest Black Eight team in history.

If other teams play eight games, they can at most defeat the first place team.

But the Grizzlies, what they are about to defeat is a 72-win team!

The fact that the Grizzlies led the Heat 2-0 naturally made James feel good.

On his side, the Heat already led the 76ers 2-0, and the first round was easy.

At the press conference, reporters also asked him about the Nuggets.

James' smile was revealed simply uncontrollably:

"Hahahahaha, I said before, the playoffs are everything.

As a result, some people actually said that I was jealous of Ryan.

Now you know, right? What I said is right!

Success in the regular season cannot be confused with the playoffs.

Before, you were all clamoring to know how many games it would take the Nuggets to win the championship, but now you can stop worrying about it.

Because now you have to think about whether the Nuggets can get past the first round!

I really want to play against Ryan in the finals, but I'm afraid he won't be able to come. "

James ended the press conference proudly. He was as happy as if he had taken a sip of iced Coke and immediately burped.

It’s just refreshing!

In fact, James never expected that the Grizzlies would become a problem. That team had no stars, a small market, no large-scale lineup changes, and the star star was reimbursed for the season.

No matter how you look at it, he looks like cannon fodder.

But their defense in the playoffs was indeed impressive. In fact, James can't guarantee that he will perform better than Ryan if he plays a series with the Grizzlies.

He saw that the Grizzlies did not rely on luck, but actually won two games in the Rockies.

But this is called standing and talking without back pain.

He deliberately did not mention the power of the Grizzlies, but just kept mocking Ryan.

Miami fans feel like they have been trapped in a confined space for a long time, and now they can finally come out and breathe.

Throughout the season, the Heat's Big Three have lived in Ryan's shadow.

It's not that they are not good, it's that Ryan is too good.

He's so perfect that he doesn't even look like a real person.

But now, here comes his imperfection!

When Ryan is eliminated, people will forget about the 72 wins, the 35-game winning streak, and the triple-double average.

The only thing people remember is the three giants who reached the top!

Heat fans feel that they have won.

Going to Memphis in the next two games, the Grizzlies can win at least one game.

After getting the match point, the Grizzlies will try their best.

Ryan's legendary story began with the miracle of being hacked, so this time, let him taste the pain of being hacked!

The Nuggets seemed to have fallen from the clouds into hell, falling to pieces.

Those who did not dare to speak before all attacked in groups, trying to trample Ryan and the Nuggets down.

But in fact, it is normal for the Nuggets to lag behind the Grizzlies. During the regular season, the Grizzlies have already shown good strength, but the fans and the media themselves do not remember it.

Again, the Grizzlies are just pretending to be eighth in the Western Conference. They definitely have the strength to be among the top three in the Western Conference.

The problem is not losing to eighth place twice, the problem is how to turn the game around.

On the flight to Memphis, Mike Malone was reviewing the video of the game against the Grizzlies over and over again.

The Grizzlies' defense was too good, and the inside attack hit the Nuggets' weakness.

He thought about using Nene and Birdman to replace Millsap and Love, but that would also mean that the Nuggets' offensive space would be smaller, making it more difficult for Ryan to score.

Although in the 2007-08 season, Ryan almost led the team to win the championship without any space.

But the team's defense at that time cannot be confused with now.

Nene + Birdman can never prevent the effect of Big Ben + AK47.

No, we must not make it more difficult for Ryan to attack.

Although the Grizzlies are a defensive team, they can't always avoid problems. What I want to think about now is how to defeat their strong defense with offense!

When Mike Malone was at a loss, Ryan came over with two cups of coffee and sat next to Malone.

Then he placed one of the glasses on the small table in front of Malone.

"You're exhausted, Mike."

Mike Malone took a sip of coffee and rubbed his bloodshot eyes: "It's all my fault. I noticed the grizzly bear a long time ago. I should have come up with a solution earlier."

"Don't say that. Although you performed very well as a great Onmyoji, as a head coach, you are still just a rookie in the final analysis."

Mike Malone was a little surprised. He didn't expect Ryan to be in the mood to joke at this time.

"Ryan, don't tell me that you didn't try your best in the first two games."

"Do you think I'm a fool? Not trying my best in the playoffs? This is not a hot-blooded comic. The protagonist can clearly kill his opponent but insists on wasting.

I’m not going to joke about the playoffs, I certainly tried my best.

But if Tony and the Two Bears win in the end, I will praise them very much.

Their defensive combination is a really tricky combination for me. "

"So, you've already figured out how to win?"

"Yes, the Grizzlies defense also has their shortcomings.

Both the Black Bear and the White Bear are too slow. If you can create mismatches and hit them, it will be easy to score.

We have to use pick-and-rolls to force them to switch defenses! "

Malone shook his head: "I tried to play pick-and-roll in the last game, but Tony's ability to get around the screen was too strong. You didn't get a few opportunities to play out of position, right?"

Ryan also took a sip of coffee:

"Tony is indeed strong, I said I would praise him, remember to remind me when the time comes.

But I attracted Tony, so I can let others play pick-and-rolls to find mismatches.

Kyle's explosive scoring ability is limited, and Matthews can't handle the ball.

So I suggest that we start with Jamal Crawford!

I know that our defense will become weaker in this way, but since we are an offensive team, we will go all the way!

We need to have a guy who can kill people by scoring, go to the pick-and-roll to find mismatches, and torture the nerves of the Bears.

And I, of course, am not sitting back and enjoying the success.

After the pressure on the offensive end is relieved, I will work harder on the defensive end. I will find ways to help defend inside and contain the Bears' offense!

We can win Mike.

Because I don’t want to see LeBron say righteously at a press conference again:

Hey, I told you before that the Nuggets can't do it. You should respect me because I am the greatest player! "

Malone laughed, and Ryan's tone of voice imitating James was really similar.

But is this strategy really feasible?

Ryan is very confident. His confidence comes from the 2015 Western Conference semifinals.

At that time, the Warriors, who had not yet won the championship and no one believed they could win the championship, encountered the terrible Grizzlies.

Everyone knows that the Warriors' inside line is very thin. In fact, the birth of the Death Five was a bit forced.

In the end, the Warriors really didn't have any inside players, so they decided to use a five-pointer.

In that round of the series, the Warriors' small lineup made it easy for the Bears to beat the Grizzlies, and the Grizzlies once took a 2:1 lead.

But after that, Kerr took advantage of the Grizzlies' defensive weaknesses.

That is, the two bears move too slowly.

Cole asked Green to take turns playing pick-and-rolls with Curry, Clay, and Barnes, leaving the Black and White Bears exhausted in the roll call training after the pick-and-roll.

In the end, the Warriors defeated three cities in a row and came back to advance!

The current situation of the Nuggets is similar to that of the Warriors in 2015, in that they cannot defend themselves inside.

On the outside, although the Nuggets do not have a backline combination of Curry + Thompson's level.

But for Ryan, a support from Crawford is enough.

Crawford doesn't have to kill the game himself, he just needs to take some of the pressure off Ryan.

Ryan's mentality is still good now. Although he is behind 0-2, he is facing the Grizzlies after all. It is normal to shed a layer of skin.

But peeling off a layer of skin will kill me?

You shed a layer of skin and you just want to see my jokes?

Don’t even think about it!

After the plane landed, Ryan turned on his phone and saw a video of James mocking himself in an interview.

He forwarded the video to his social media and wrote:

"Cherish it LeBron, there is not much time left for you to fantasize."
