"The Thunder has won 7 games in a row, Noah, why do you think we always encounter opponents who are winning games?"

"When God wants to give a great task to a person, he must make his heart suffer..."

"When God wants to give a great cause to someone, he needs to use difficulties to hone the person's heart and make it strong? Noah, I know you Chinese are educated, can you stop showing off?"

Looking at Randolph's face of disgust, Sun Ce wanted to complain - I can't even pretend to be cool!

However, Randolph does not reject educated people. On the contrary, he wants to become an educated person and has started reading recently.

The reason is that his eldest son is 5 years old. He can't answer questions when asked.

After chatting with Randolph for a while, the break was over. Sun Ce and his teammates had the second 40-minute training session this morning, which was also the last preparation training today.

The day before yesterday, the Thunder just ended the Spurs' winning streak and increased their winning streak to 7 games. In the past two years, the Grizzlies, Bulls, and 76ers have three young teams that have risen. Now, the media has started to praise the Thunder based on their opening performance.

The Thunder played very well at the beginning, averaging 107 points per game and an average of more than 12 points per game. They have strong offense and defense.

…

After a day of preparation, at 8 o'clock in the evening, the Grizzlies' away game against the Thunder started.

This time, the Grizzlies lost the match between the two best young teams in the West!

82 to 93, the Grizzlies lost to the Thunder away, and their three-game winning streak was ended.

Westbrook scored 18 points, 7 rebounds, and 10 assists, Durant scored 29 points, 6 rebounds, and Ellis, who came off the bench, scored 15 points.

On the Grizzlies side, Sun Ce made 11 of 26 shots, including 2 of 9 three-pointers, plus 9 of 11 free throws. Although he scored more than Durant and got 33 points, he lost the game.

The Grizzlies' defense was already very good. Sun Ce got 14 rebounds, 4 blocks and 1 steal, proving that the Grizzlies' defense was indeed very good. This was the first time that the Thunder scored less than 100 points in a single game this season, but the Grizzlies' own offense was very poor.

In addition to 33 points, Sun Ce only had 4 assists, and Nash only got 6 points and 2 assists.

The Thunder's defense was very good. Led by Ibaka, who got 8 points, 8 rebounds and 5 blocks, the connection between Sun Ce and his teammates was well cut off. Sun Ce played 37 minutes and shot 26 times. If you count the 5 times he went to the free throw line because the opponent fouled, Sun Ce shot 31 times, but only 4 assists.

Obviously, through last year's playoffs and this season's observation and research on the Grizzlies, the Thunder has found a way to deal with the Grizzlies!

…

…

The Grizzlies lost their first match against the Thunder in the new season. How much of a blow did it really have to the Grizzlies?

They had to lose, and it was even harder to control in the first match. Compared to the Thunder, who regarded the Grizzlies as their biggest opponent, the Grizzlies had to focus on guarding against more powerful opponents.

But the pressure has definitely become greater!

It’s nothing special for a team like the Thunder, which has two super talents, to win in a row. The Grizzlies had many such winning streaks in the 10-11 season, but after the actual match and the loss, the Thunder also became the focus of the Grizzlies’ playoffs.

After the game, the Grizzlies returned to the hotel, and the coaching staff held a post-match meeting to analyze tonight’s game.

Durant has been improving every year, and he has improved again this season. In the 10-11 season, Durant's shooting percentage was stable at around 46%. No matter how well or badly he played at the beginning, the final hit rate was almost the same; last season, Durant's shooting percentage was stable at around 48%; this season, it has steadily exceeded 50%. For example, tonight, he shot 12 out of 24, which was very stable.

So far this season, Durant has averaged 42 rebounds and assists per game, and Durant has also improved a lot in terms of ball handling. However, although Durant's ball control has improved from Sun Ce's side, it is only at the B+ level, and his passing is only at the B+ level, which is also in line with Durant's average of 42 assists per game but 38 turnovers.

Westbrook's style is completely biased. After the start of the new season, including the game against the Grizzlies, he averaged 1 assist and 29 steals per game!

Westbrook doesn't seem to care about scoring at all during regular time. He plays well in four aspects: defensive rebounds, shrinking defense, steals, and passing.

In terms of assists, Westbrook ranks third in the league, second only to Paul of the Lakers and Rondo of the Clippers!

Rebounds rank 15th in the league, and points rank 18th in the league.

Westbrook is the only player in the league whose three main statistics are ranked in the top 20 in the league.

And Westbrook dares to throw at the critical moment!

Sun Ce feels that Westbrook's style of play is very suitable for the Thunder, based on teammates like Durant and Ellis, who averaged 19 points per game on the bench.

Mainly because of Durant, he is not afraid of Westbrook sticking to the ball and has strong ability to catch the pot.

As for Ellis, playing in a strong team feels very different. It seems that he has returned to the two seasons of 2006-08 when the Warriors had a good record. He averaged 19 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists per game, becoming a pure scorer, daring to throw from the outside, cutting in sharply, and the first active pull-up under the basket...

Ellis is definitely no match for Harden this season, but compared with Harden last season, Ellis is definitely stronger.

Ellis is stronger than Harden last season, plus the three young players, Durant and Irving, who continue to improve, plus the high-quality role player lineup built by the four young players' rookie contracts in the past few years... Sun Ce feels that the Thunder may really be their strongest opponent in the West.

However, after the meeting, Sun Ce returned to the room, and his attention was not on how strong the Thunder was this season. During the game, there were not many events triggered like in the past three seasons when he played against the Thunder. There was only one long-term event, a triple-double with Westbrook.

So far this season, Sun Ce has not had a triple-double. Westbrook has had two triple-doubles. Sun Ce doesn't care much about this.

But at the end of the game, Sun Ce received a system prompt!

"Kevin Durant won the first game against the host after the start of the new season. He was very excited and tried to reverse the fans' perception of the host and his reputation and status this season, as well as the reputation of Scarlett Johansson in the eyes of the law, and the little bully's exclusive event in the notebook: This woman is mine (3) triggered."

After reading this event again, Sun Ce didn't know how to complain about Durant.

This guy, apart from being a great basketball player, is really no different from an ordinary person. He is even a very cool person among ordinary people.

He is not as good at managing himself as James, nor is he as old-fashioned as Kobe in maintaining his superstar status, nor is he as determined as Curry...
