I Don’t Want to be the Boss

: One thousand eight hundred and ninety. Uncle Mu? YES!

   In this period of time, Sun Ce scored more than 40 points in 7 out of 10 games! Moreover, after the All-Star Weekend, the Grizzlies played 15 games, 14 wins and 1 loss. In these 15 games, Sun Ce won 8 40+ times. In the game against the Timberwolves, Sun Ce won the 29th 40th time this season. +, tied his own record of 40+ times in a single season, the sixth highest in NBA history!

   Mentioned the performance of the Grizzlies after the All-Star weekend, it is not difficult to think of the same crazy Warriors after the All-Star weekend.

The Warriors are currently 66 wins and 7 losses, and their record after the All-Star weekend is also 14 wins and 1 loss. Originally, people thought the Warriors were stronger, but if you look at the performance after the All-Star weekend, who is stronger and who is weaker? , Really hard to say!

This is indeed an incredible thing in people’s eyes. Last summer, the Grizzlies lost the three main players of Livingston, Pierce and Larry Sanders. Richard Jefferson was a running roster. The main team retired, Stoudemire and Blake also retired, suddenly missing six players.

Therefore, the strength of the Grizzlies' running and bombing lineup has declined a lot. Jie Michael Green does not have the steady three-pointers and excellent cut-in consciousness of Richard Jefferson, nor does it have that hand to make the ball. Little Nance has nothing. Physical fitness, but still weak, of course there is progress, strength theoretically stronger than Richard Jefferson, but experience and consciousness are far behind.

   The defensive end also has a great impact. The Grizzlies used to have the best defensive lineup in the league, but no matter how they line up this year, they don't have the strongest defensive lineup.

But under this circumstance, relying on the improvement of young players and the adjustment of their play style... The Grizzlies were stunned to hit a record scoring average per game. Up to now, they have played 73 games. The Grizzlies averaged With 117.7 points, he is ranked 7th in NBA history. Only the craziest offensive years that Pat Riley opened on the Lakers in the late 80s and early 90s can be compared with them.

   The key is that the Grizzlies’ strength has been improved little by little! Fans can see that the Grizzlies were not as good as the Warriors at first, and the record was once tied by the Spurs.

   But now, the Grizzlies seem to have returned to the ranks of the strongest team! Only lost one game after the All-Star weekend!

Of course, some fans also pointed out that the Grizzlies have a hidden danger, that is, the main lineup has too much playing time, Tony Allen's age is old and the defense declines, Paul George and Klay Thompson play more time; the backup point guard is functional Strong, but the conventional strength is not up to the level of the championship team's first substitute. Sun Ce's playing time has increased...

   Who cares about this now?

Some people refuted this. The Grizzlies’ playing time was well controlled. Aldridge and Randolph were the only two of the Grizzlies’ players this season, except for Sun Ce, who remained healthy throughout the season. Injured player.

  Even Klay Thompson has missed two games due to injury and Paul George has missed one game.

  Moreover, there are many fans who are calmly judged. Judging from the playing time of the three main perimeter players, the Grizzlies do have hidden dangers, but these brothers are all in their prime career. How about playing a little tired? They are at the peak of the combination of physiology and technology. They should have played more and should have taken responsibility.

Someone criticizes that there are hidden dangers in their increased playing time. From the perspective of calm judges, this is completely spoiled when the Grizzlies won three championships before. The Grizzlies can do this now, and there is no way anymore. Even better. From the perspectives of rotation and health assurance, except for the old coach Sloan who is comparable to coach Hollins, the entire league cannot find anyone who can do better than Coach Hollins in this regard. Coach Lins does this professionally.

   The outstanding performance of the Grizzlies further enhanced the perception of Sun Ce's data.

   Averaged 39 minutes per game, a career high, averaging 39.9 points per game, a career high, and it was still improving by the end of the season.

   11.8 rebounds per game. This is very stable. The highest year was when Randolph was injured and Gasol was traded. It has been the same for other seasons since Sun Ce's second grade. It has been stable for a long time.

   averaging 5.2 assists per game and has already got 8 triple-doubles this season.

With an average of 2.9 blocks and 2.4 steals per game, no one competes with Sun Ce for the top shots this year. Whiteside is going to defend well without scoring data; Anthony Davis needs more because of the wise operation of the Pelicans management The center defended against the opponent center, the time of assisting defense decreased, and the blocked shots decreased; the defensive end of Ibaka was more single defense, and his athletic ability declined due to injury, so he could not defend like he was used to before, but he is also powerful. Adjusted the style of play. Although there is no defense of the best defensive player level, there is still a first-class level of single defense; after the help of Antetokounmpo, Jordan has also dropped the number of blocks... Sun Ce's field He averaged 2.9 blocks, 0.5 more blocks per game than the second Whiteside's 2.4 blocks per game, basically locking the block leader.

The steals can also be ranked second. The first place is really unexpected. Curry averages 2.4 steals per game and ranks first in the league. This also proves that Curry is not a black hole. He works **** defense, most of the time. It was blown out because Sun Ce set off a wave of national naming Curry. Under such circumstances, Curry can still have slightly more than average defense and has done very well.

However, Curry can have so many steals, which is inseparable from his long-term need to face up with the ball-handling players. There is also Harden. He has almost no pressure to attack the ball and can put more energy and energy on the defensive end. ...

Looking at the data of Sun Ce averaged 39.9 points, 11.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 2.9 blocks, and 2.2 steals, he hit 52% from the field, 39% from the three-point range, and 87% from the free throw... We don't know who in today's league can compare with Sun Ce's personal ability.

   Curry can't, James can't, maybe the last basketball god... Nor!

Many people tout how strong Jordan is in the last three consecutive years. Of course, it is indeed worth touting. In the 97-98 season, Jordan can basically be regarded as a single-core team to win the championship and complete the three consecutive championships with Pippen's consecutive injuries. To be strong, Jordan must be the strongest and most invincible of the top three companies.

   Sun Ce is now at the same age as the first three consecutive Jordans. He is 26 years old and is at the peak of his career. Jordan, who won the first championship in the 90-91 season, is 28 years old and is also the peak of his career.

In the year of Jordan's first championship, he played the second highest efficiency of his career, second only to the MVP+DPOY season, with the highest shooting rate in his career. Two outsiders flanking + inside center block defense, both can hit the career highest shooting rate. In theory, The strongest year of his career.

Even Sun Ce from last season can hardly compare with Jordan in the 90-91 season, because no one thought that Jordan would win the championship. That season Pippen didn't even make the All-Star, only a second defense, Pippen was After winning the championship this season, he entered the ranks of the All-Star, best team and best defense candidates in the eyes of fans, media, and coaches.

   Many people see Pippen's later honor, and they naturally think that Jordan had a chance to win the championship after Pippen. In fact, it was Jordan who took Pippen to win the championship and grow up with Pippen.

   As for Sun Ce last season, his teammates were too strong. Although Sun Ce played the strongest efficiency in a single season, it is still difficult to compare with Jordan in the first championship season.

   Moreover, in the past, no one would compare a star with Jordan this season. Jordan this season best fits the nickname "Old Hooligan", but now it has!

   This year's Sun Ce, who is stronger than the 28-year-old Jordan in his peak season?

   This is because Sun Ce is not an American player. Otherwise, Sun Ceyou's performance in the triple crown last season has long been blown into a championship over Kobe, two championships over Jordan, and three championships in history.

  ……

On March 23, on a cloudy and rainy day, early in the morning, a young man dressed in wealth and looks like a guy on the construction site appeared outside the FedEx Arena. The security guard expertly took out an umbrella from the storage box and stepped forward. Handed to this unique temperament young man.

  Who cares about media evaluation in NBA history? Du Xiaoshuai is none other than Goose City.

Recently, Durant has been very melancholic. He has played well. At present, their Thunder team is 58 wins and 15 losses, and the Spurs with 56 wins and 17 losses are ranked third in the Western Conference. Their Thunder team is behind before the All-Star Weekend. The Spurs won three games. After the All-Star Weekend, they seized the time when the Spurs rested too long and the veteran was in a slow state, completed a go-ahead and held the third place in the West. This is not an easy task, but They did it.

   But even if he played so well, he failed to make headlines twice after the All-Star Weekend. The only time he made headlines was when he beat Sun Ce, Curry and James to win the best of the week.

   He was depressed. Kobe was the only player in his peak period, and O'Neal began to weaken during his peak period. Why did he meet the strongest player in basketball history when he was in Durant's peak period?

   Watching the media are discussing who Sun Ce and Jordan are the strongest... A mood called untimely birth lingers in Durant's heart...

   Standing outside the Grizzlies arena, Durant seemed to understand why James liked to stand stupidly outside the arena of Sun Ce's team. This feeling cannot be described in words.

  Only by winning the championship, maybe this emotion can be eliminated.

   Durant suddenly admires James, Kobe's assistant with a peak tail.

Shaking his head, Durant knew that they still have hope this year. Although he envied others, and he didn't understand why his team didn't value him at all and caused resentment, but he is not the kind who will give up on the court. People.

The cooperation between him and his teammates, if you put aside the eccentricity of the management and the coaching staff, it is actually very pleasant, and the cooperation is also tacit, otherwise it will not be able to achieve the third record in the league after the All-Star Weekend, second only to Xiong Yong. .

Shaking his head, enter the arena, and return the umbrella to the security guard. After a while, teammates will also come to prepare for tonight’s game. People with glass hearts often dislike others seeing his glass hearts the least, and Durant does the same. .

  ……

   After a day of preparation, at 7:40 in the evening, the two warm-up teams entered the court.

   It is recognized that the Grizzlies players are fat on the court and iron eater on the court. The visiting team Thunder sees the Grizzlies players entering the court behind, and Tarzan's pressure is on the top.

  Westbrook is okay, he has a lot of muscles, he is a standard old-time player character, which is the so-called-Kobe-like player.

But Durant was so careful that he couldn't figure out why Sun Ce took so many shots per game. He averaged 26.9 shots per game. Most of the time he shot 24 or 34 times. Sometimes he could take 30 or even 40 shots. , His teammates have no complaints at all, is it because of the record?

Durant doesn't think it is. Their Thunder record has always been very good, but occasionally when Westbrook threw his brain more than 30 times, he still had lumps in his heart, and not only he was alone, but other teammates also complained. .

   But it’s already normal for Sun Ce to make waves if they don’t agree!

   Durant couldn't understand.

   Between people, there is always no empathy. If you have to say a similar mentality, that is the mentality of Jordan's teammates in the championship season. Jordan was the scoring leader in six championship seasons.

  The goal of Sun Ce’s teammates now is very simple, just two points-first, to help Sun Ce get good data, and second, to win all the remaining games as much as possible!

   If these two points can be achieved, Sun Ce's third consecutive MVP is likely to be stable.

  Sometimes the media touts can really make a team become more team and goals become more consistent.

   Help the strongest player in history to complete three consecutive MVPs. If it is really done, Yu Yourongyan!

  Although the two teams did not deliberately create a hostile atmosphere, the relationship between Sun Ce and Westbrook outside the stadium is OK, but after years of fighting, the grievances on the stadium are quite deep. On the stadium, the two teams have no friendship at all.

   The pre-match preparation time passed quickly, and at 8 pm, the Grizzlies and Thunder began the game.

   Gobert lost the jump ball almost without suspense, and the Thunder attacked first.

   Watching Westbrook slowly advance to the ground after receiving the jump ball, the TV commentator wondered to the TV audience-why can't Westbrook fast break?

The Thunder’s starting lineup is Westbrook, Andre Roberson, Durant, Ibaka, Adams. This lineup faces opponents Sunce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Aldridge, and Gobert. Fast break is perfect.

   There is less confrontation, although the running is bigger, but overall the consumption is smaller, which is more conducive to the performance of Durant and Adams, which are not so physically strong.

   The commentator was right to think so, but he ignored some problems, and the Thunder immediately demonstrated with practical actions that they can't play a positive role in the fast break.

   Ibaka's opening shot was interrupted by Paul George. The Thunder retreated in an orderly manner by relying on the stability of the positional attack and prevented Sun Ce from catching the rebound from counterattack!

   Playing fast break, it inevitably means that the offensive player has to quickly find a shot opportunity, so the position can not be guaranteed, and the problem is very big when retiring.

   The Thunder's choice is reasonable. Maybe it has less flexibility, but the victory is stable because they have good enough position and offensive and defensive strength.

   Tonight, the strategic purpose of the Thunder is very simple-to play defense!

   Positional warfare offensive and defensive teams are coming to the playoffs, and the referee's whistle-blowing scale has gradually approached the playoff standard. Of course, they must play defense. This is also one of the ways to try to defeat the Grizzlies.

There is Adams at the basket, Ibaka defends Aldridge's high back and the mid-range shot is doing well. Aldridge can only play a role tonight. On the outside, Andre Robertson defends Paul George and Weiss Brook chased Klay Thompson and bit.

On Sun Ce's side, after his core strength increased last summer and his physical fitness improved, Durant was not as restricted as before, but his style of play was there. He encountered this kind of fast speed and excellent height wingspan. The striker is really hard to play.

   It can be said that the Thunder's strategy tonight is quite good!

   However, the Grizzlies are not afraid of anyone who wants to grind the defense. Although they don’t have the strongest defense in the league, they are also the top five defensive teams in the league. After the first half of the first quarter, the Grizzlies started the defensive battle mode directly.

   Oklahoma City is prepared and naturally not panic. The defensive battle between the two teams is getting more and more intense.

   After the first quarter, the Grizzlies led the Thunder by two points 24 to 22 and entered the break.

   In the second quarter, in order to relieve the physical pressure of Sun Ce and Gobert, Coach Hollins tried to use the combination of Sun Ce, Carter, Klay Thompson, Nance Jr. and Yi Jianlian to rush into a wave of offense.

   As a result, Chong didn't rush up and didn't say anything, but Kanter, who came on the bench, exploded inside.

   A wave of 12 to 5, the Thunder overtook the Grizzlies by 5 points 34 to 29. The Grizzlies had to switch to a defensive lineup~www.wuxiaspot.com~ At this time, the Grizzlies were already passive.

However, the Grizzlies also adjusted quickly. Sun Ce saw that the offense was indeed difficult to play, so he adjusted his style of play, no longer thinking about "guarantee 40 points", but went back to his playing style before hitting the scoring champion, taking the ball alone. Right, organize the offensive ball, when the shot is shot.

   To ensure this style of play, you need a strong degree of concentration, because you have to grasp every detail of the offensive end.

   This kind of strong concentration is a very eye-catching feature of Sun Ce early in his career. This feature is the strongest in James and Paul. Sun Ce was not as good as the two on this alone, but it was also very surprising.

   From the third minute and 44 seconds of the second quarter to halftime, Sun Ce scored 4 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks and 1 steal, helping the Grizzlies clenched the score during this time!

   Even if Sun Ce reduces his shots, the opponent dare not let him go. This is a player who can score 90 points in a single game.

   With Sun Ce's 11 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 blocks and 2 steals, the Grizzlies fell 47-51 to the Thunder by 4 points and entered the intermission.

In this half of the game, although the scoring is not particularly low, if you consider that Klay Thompson, Randolph, and Yi Jianlian all shot more than 40% of the mid-range shots with defense, then You can imagine how bad the role players' open shots are due to the impact of confrontation!

   Sometimes I get used to playing and go all out. This is a problem for the Grizzlies. Once the overall strength is not so strong, such as an absolute main force injury... you will encounter the situation of the 13-14 season.

   But most of the time this is not a problem, because they have Sun Ce!

   "Physical potion? NO! Uncle Mu? YES!"
