Chapter 841 Familiar places with different roles

The Thunder team was smooth sailing, which inevitably made the fans feel a little fluttering. They were already fantasizing about their opponents in the next round.

According to the schedule, if the Thunder enters the second round, their opponent is the winner between the Spurs and the Jazz.

Because the Spurs lost their facial paralysis, they are currently struggling to face the Jazz. The current big score between the two teams is 1:1, and the Jazz have already gained the home advantage.

Whether it is the Spurs without facial paralysis or the Jazz with civilians, these two teams are not enough to stop the Thunder from entering the Western Conference Finals. The Thunder's real opponent is actually only the Warriors in the West, which is a consensus among many people.

The third game of the series will be moved to Memphis.

The Thunder took a plane to Memphis and came to a familiar place in Xie Kai.

The city of Memphis is not big, and the changes have been very small during the period when Xie Kai left. Whether it is the airport or the street, there is no change from two years ago.

Playing the playoffs as a visiting team here is still very complicated for Xie Kai. When he is driving on the street in Memphis on a bus, he will remember the scene of a winning tournament on this street in a float. He even felt as if he smelled some champagne that he had won the championship.

Everything seemed to be yesterday, but now things have changed. The invincible combination of Xie Kai + Black and White bears is ultimately due to injuries, age, and of course the salary space, which no longer exists. They have success and established a dynasty. To be honest, of course, there are, because of injuries and other factors, they have no chance to usher in an unprecedented four consecutive championships.

Xie Kai kept looking out the window, Westbrook turned to look at his side face, and then rubbed his left elbow against him.

Xie Kai turned around and Westbrook smiled: "Have you entered the memory?"

Xie Kai smiled and nodded: "I am very familiar with this street."

Westbrook knew that Xie Kai had won three championships in this city. No one thought the Grizzlies could win three consecutive championships, but they really did it. Some people always thought that Xie Kai was holding the thighs of the black and white bears, but he knew how strong his old friend was.

Let me put it this way, there will be no more than three people in the entire league that can make Westbrook willing to be the Green Leaf, and Xie Kai is one of them.

The Thunder stayed in Memphis hotels, and many of the K honeys in Oxford City have already arrived here first. The number of K honeys in Memphis is also far ahead of the United States. Although Xie Kai's departure has reduced the number of K honeys compared to the peak period, it is still ranked among the top 5 in the United States.

The Grizzlies fans in Memphis are in a very complicated mood at this moment. If last season's playoff defeat made them clearly understand the importance of Xie Kai to this team, if facing the Thunder led by Xie Kai, the home team is vulnerable, allowing them to more understand the loss and understand the preciousness.

Those Grizzlies fans who have always looked down on Xie Kai, even if they are stubborn, have to admit that whether Xie Kai is there is a huge gap in strength for the Grizzlies.

But nothing helps. Xie Kai will not come back here again. Everyone knows this very well.

On the evening of April 21, the Grizzlies were at home FedEx Arena, and the Thunder and the Grizzlies series G3.

The scene was crowded with people and filled with people.

Since Xie Kai entered the stadium, the cheers at the scene have never stopped. There is no doubt that the fans here still love him.

Xie Kai also felt that he was very familiar with everything here, more familiar than the Ford Center. Seeing the three championship flags hanging above the stadium, his eyes were a little wet.

Behind every champion, he is involved, and all of this condenses into pictures, and in my mind, I unconsciously recall it.

But Xie Kai also knew very well that no matter how beautiful the memories were, what he needed to do was to base himself on the present, and only the present was the only one he could control.

When he closed his eyes, Xie Kai knew that he was now a member of the Thunder. What he had to do was to help the Thunder defeat his old club.

Grizzlies fans looked at Xie Kai wearing the Thunder No. 22, and it was awkward no matter how you looked. Many fans wearing the Grizzlies No. 22 jersey felt very embarrassed because Xie Kai was already on the opponent's side.

The number of K honey on the scene is still huge, and the cheers make the stadium extremely lively.

In this game, the Grizzlies finally changed their team.

They won the starter of Wayne Selden, who performed poorly in the previous two games, and allowed the larger James Ennis to start against Xie Kai.

Not only that, the Grizzlies also took the Black Bears to the start of this game, and it was obvious that they were going to fight to the death.

Because if you can't win this game, then you will face a 0:3-delayed situation and it will be a matter of time to get out.

But the hidden danger of doing this is that without the second lineup of the Black Bears, can it still resist the second lineup of the Thunder led by Xie Kai and Paulo?

I don't know, but the Grizzlies can no longer manage so much. With the current talent reserves in their hands, it is impossible to have everything. There may be a glimmer of hope for dangerous moves.

The Thunder are still regular starters, with Duck Egg and the Turks partnering with the inside.

After the game started, the Grizzlies' black and white bears attacked the inside. They seemed to have been holding it in for a long time and played extremely resolutely. In addition, the referee's appropriate "adjustment", the Turks had already taken two free throws after only 3 minutes of the game...

Gibson came up and replaced the Turk.

The Grizzlies are almost all soldiers, and the outside players play very decisively. From the inside out, with the help of their home court momentum, they suppressed their opponents in the score.

The Thunder didn't feel good at the beginning, and the opponent narrowed his defense and couldn't open the offensive space.

At this time, Xie Kai used his personal ability to solve the problem in half to force the score difference so that the opponent would not pull the score apart at once.

Soon, Duck Egg also sent off two free throws, and Kant came up.

For the Thunder, Duck Egg and the Turks are not the core, but the Big Three are, so even if they are all defeated, the impact on them is not great.

The Grizzlies have always been ahead of the score, but they just can't get rid of the difference.

When the second lineup came up, the Thunder teams were equipped with Xie Kai, Gibson, Paulo, Robertson and McDermott's small lineup.

This lineup has a very fast offensive space and is extremely flexible in defense. Xie Kai and Gibson started the pick-and-roll, and Paulo and others from the outside made three shots.

This lineup quickly caught up with the score and then overtaken. The Grizzlies' second lineup has no leader and is completely unstoppable.

Grizzlies coach David Fitzdale immediately sent the White Bears up, but the situation was no longer controlled.
