Beijing time on January 14, the NBA regular season continues, today the Grizzlies sat at home to usher in the challenge of the Timberwolves, speaking of the most talented young team in the West now, these two are well-deserved, one has two titles and a list, the other although there is only one list, but they also have a No. 4 show, other young players are also very good, in the first half the Timberwolves have been firmly holding the advantage, who expected the second half of the Grizzlies to fight back, and finally the team reversed the Timberwolves 116-108.
After winning the game, the Grizzlies won 10 consecutive wins, today the Warriors lost, so they are only 1.5 wins away from the second warriors in the West, three wins away from the first Sun, according to the current state of the Grizzlies, they will win the first place in the division, because this team can play too many players, this is not today the team 5 people scored 14+ points, while the Timberwolves only scored double-doubles.
Today Morant was very inefficient by the Timberwolves' pinch, scoring 16 points on 5-of-16 shooting, but Morant's passing skills are really good, even in the face of the pinch can find a big empty teammate, he also sent 8 rebounds and 9 assists very good, Bane shot 5 of 12, 2 of 8 three-pointers took 21 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists, Jalen Jackson Jr. continued to dominate the offensive and defensive ends, 6 of 10 shots, 3 of 3 three-pointers, 2 of 3 for 20 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist, 1 steal and 5 blocks.
The Grizzlies have built a three-few lineup around Morant through the operation of the past few years, Bane and Jaron Jackson are good 3D, they can develop an offensive system around Morant, in fact, if you have to calculate, Dillon can also be considered a big core of the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies are four less, but only three people are on the court today. Although Dillon did not play in this game, but the substitutes Clark and Conchar gave three less help, Clark had 14 points and 8 rebounds.
Konchal scored 15 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists and hit a key three-pointer, Konchal was just a missed draft, but this season there is no doubt that he has played out, averaging 4.9 points, 4.3 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 17 minutes so far this season, shooting 56.3% from the field and 50.9% from three-point range, that is, not enough playing time, otherwise he would have played better.
On the other hand, the Timberwolves only had three cores to play steadily, Towns scored 25 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks, Edwards scored 30 points, 2 rebounds and 4 assists, Russell got 29 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists, and the trio scored 84 points, but the teammates were too weak, their bench scored a total of 13 points, not giving the three cores too much help, and the defense was very pully more like a help to the starters.
Timberwolves coach Finch was also very angry after the game, saying: "It's a bit like a repeat of our last visit here, the opponent scored all the winning rounds and we didn't, I don't think our bench players were ready, except for Prince and Okogie. "I can hear that Finch is very dissatisfied with the performance of the substitutes, and the whole team has a total of 5 substitutes on the bench, and almost criticizes Beasley, Nazrid and McDaniels.
Today the two sides played to the end, although the loss can also be accepted, I hope that the two youth armies continue their brilliant performance, speaking of which, what do you want to say about the current Grizzlies and Timberwolves? Welcome to leave a message to discuss.
