Durant, with his back to Guy, began calling for the ball.
Since the tactics couldn't break through, it was down to single combat to solve the problem.
This was also why the Heat's record this season was much better than last season.
They had two superstars at one-on-one play when one wasn't working, the other could quickly step forward.
It's hard to find a team that simultaneously has top-tier defenders at the forward positions.
The Pacers are an exception, but only the Pacers now, the Grizzlies no longer possess that kind of defensive resource.
However, just as Durant received the ball, the Grizzlies' double-teaming came on.
Durant was strong at one-on-one, but he lacked the ability to playmake; the double-team was most effective against him.
Previously, it was Little Gasol responsible for the double-team. This time it was Conley, and the Grizzlies' defensive rotation was also triggered simultaneously.
