As soon as G1 was finished, my brave fans were not happy at first, although it was said that the Warriors won, but there was actually a lot of controversy about this foul and penalty. If nothing else, let's talk about the last ball from the Grizzlies, and the referee gave the jump ball. Of course, this thing can not be commented on, this is all a factor of instability, just like Green's second-degree malicious foul before halftime, who would have thought that Green was absent in the second half of this game. So fouls are something that will be the focus of discussion every game and every round of the playoffs, but the real winner or loser is still on the players, just like this game gave Morant exactly like a killer Timberwolves on basketball, did not score, then this is not a penalty can be controlled.
But the Warriors said that they won the first game, and it was still a win on the road, which is significant, at least to break Morant's claim that he wants to sweep Golden State 4-0. And this G1 game point of view, the Warriors are indeed not good to play the Grizzlies, but in turn the Grizzlies are not easy to play against the Warriors, and the disadvantage points are also very clear, both sides are considered to have their own winners and losers, this time the loss may not be the Warriors. The Warriors' shortcoming is that the inside line is weak, especially when the Warriors' inside line is unable to defend people after Green's absence in the second half today, so that in the fourth quarter, Morant's repeated impact basket scores, which is the Warriors' death hole.
But aren't grizzlies afraid? The Grizzlies also have the experience of the Grizzlies, and the Grizzlies are still afraid of the warriors' experience The Warriors are a very holistic team, three-point and passing is their system, such a team is a very mature team, so it is more experienced than the Grizzlies in terms of style. The Warriors were in a passive situation in the first three quarters, but the Warriors initially kept playing tactics in the case of inaccurate three points, from the inside line to the outside line, and the Warriors' weak inside line is a fact, but the Grizzlies' inside line also has pressure. The Grizzlies are white as an Adams and Jackson, Adams can't get on a Jackson, and if there are more fouls, Jackson is also in trouble.
The most critical thing is that the Pressure created by the Warriors' outside line to the Grizzlies is very large, and they all see Thompson's early three fouls, in fact, Dillon Brooks also fouled five times early, if it were not for the Failure of the Warriors' challenge, Dillon would have left the court for six fouls long ago. The Grizzlies face the Warriors' outside line, and the defensive pressure is not small. Especially when Curry and Poole are very accurate, this point makes the Grizzlies very uncomfortable. The Grizzlies also have to find people to go to the right place, the inappropriate players are constantly being trained by the military, and the Grizzlies' outside defense is also very passive throughout the game.
Morant is playing well, but if you really want to say that you are excellent, it is not necessarily. He had 34 points, 9 rebounds and 10 assists on 14-of-31 shooting and 4-of-11 three-point range. 31 shot 34 points, this real efficiency is also very average, even a little poor. And the Warriors still let Him go after Morant scored three consecutive points, and Morant's three-pointers were not so accurate, and he began to play iron after consecutive goals. The Warriors really can't prevent his breakthrough from starting, but in the half-court position battle, it is not easy for Morant to score points out of thin air. So this round of the series warriors are not necessarily weaker than the Grizzlies, dare not say that the Warriors have a great advantage, but at least from the G1 point of view, it is difficult for both sides to say who can finally win.
