2022-23 NBA regular season continues today and has attracted widespread attention. There is a key game in today's regular season, which is between the two teams, , Nets, and Grizzlies. The two teams are strong teams in the east and west respectively. The difference is that since the new season, the Nets' record has been very unsatisfactory, while the Grizzlies continue their outstanding state last season. The Nets have two major stars: Durant and Irving , while the Grizzlies have Morant and Bain, which are shining backcourt Gemini. A focus battle that is highly anticipated is about to break out.
In the first half, both teams showed excellent competitive state as soon as they came up. The shooting percentages of both teams were very high in the first quarter. In the last minute of this quarter, both sides succeeded in all three rounds. Durant and Irving joined forces to contribute 21 points in the first quarter, while Morant scored 16 points in a single quarter. In the second quarter, the Nets were in a hot state. Durant and Irving continued to score steadily, and Clarkston also completed the end at the basket in succession. The Nets scored 35 points in a single quarter and beat the Grizzlies 10 points. After halftime, the Nets took the lead 69-64.
The second half of the game began, and the Nets' offensive efficiency declined sharply. In the first half of this quarter, the Nets kept making noises. After playing more than 6 minutes, the team only scored 5 points in total. In this quarter, they only scored 28 points, of which Durant alone contributed 17 points. The Grizzlies took the opportunity to seize the opportunity to counterattack. They opened their firepower and scored a 23-5 attack wave in the middle of the quarter, hitting 45 points in a single quarter, gaining a 12-point lead. In the fourth quarter, the Nets started to counterattack with Irving. Irving scored 21 points in this quarter, but the Grizzlies' young player Bain also scored 13 points in a single quarter. Morant hit a three-pointer in the last moment and was sure to kill the final shot. The Grizzlies did not give the Nets a chance to reverse.
In the end, the Grizzlies defeated the Nets 134-124 and won the key battle. On the Grizzlies, Morant scored 38 points, 8 rebounds, 7 assists and 2 steals, Bain scored 38 points, 7 assists, Adams scored 29 points, 13 rebounds and 2 assists, Aldama scored 17 points and 4 rebounds, Brooks scored 24 points, Conchar scored 7 points, 4 rebounds and 2 steals, Jones scored 8 points, 3 rebounds, and Clark scored 13 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists. On the Nets, Durant scored 37 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, Irving scored 37 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks, O'Neal 8 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists, Clarkston scored 16 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, Simmons scored 27 points, 3 rebounds and 8 assists, Harris scored 28 points, 5 rebounds and 2 assists, Mills scored 26 points and 2 assists.
In this game, Durant and Irving tried their best. The two of them scored 37 points at the same time, scoring 74 points, 13 rebounds and 9 assists together, but they still failed to help the team win. It's a pity. The Nets have no system in offense, so they can only rely on Durant and Irving to play solo, and the defense makes the Grizzlies seek it. The role of Nash in coaching has basically not been shown. In addition, Simmons, who had a maximum salary, only sent 7 points, 3 rebounds, 8 assists and 6 fouls in the whole game. It is too difficult for the Nets to win. This Nets have a long way to go in the new season.
The starting lineups of both sides are: Nets, Kyrie Irving , Ben Simmons , Kevin Durant , Royce O'Neal , Nicolas Clarkston ; Grizzlies, Jia Morant , Desmond Bain , Sandy Aldama, Dillon Brooks , Steven Adams . Judging from the books, the Nets are obviously better, but they lost to the Grizzlies. They need to summarize it carefully when they go back.
