Chapter 173: Payback.
Carlisle called a timeout.
After the timeout, Terry subbed in for Kidd, and the Grizzlies brought in Battier to replace Gay.
Han Sen hit his free throw, and Nowitzki responded with his signature one-legged fadeaway, leaving the score at 10-15.
At this point, Marion was assigned to guard Han Sen.
It looked like Carlisle was planning to rotate defenders on Han Sen to wear him down.
But as soon as Han Sen got the ball, Barea immediately double-teamed him.
Han Sen passed to Conley, who was quickly double-teamed by Terry.
Though Terry's defense wasn't as strong as Kidd's, his footwork was much faster.
Meanwhile, Marion stretched his arms out to deny Han Sen the ball.
Carlisle's real intent now became clear: he wasn't trying to rotate defenders on Han Sen but rather to force him to give up the ball.
Conley ended up passing to Randolph, who missed his shot against Chandler in the low post.
