One Thousand Two Hundred and Eighty-Six. Tyrannosaurus Rex's Luck Turns!
The Mavericks, ranked eighth in the West, have won 47 games, and they will definitely win 50+ games.
Unless the Mavericks lose 3 of the last 5 games and the Jazz win all of them, they can enter the playoffs.
The crazy side of the wild West is coming again, and 50 wins may not guarantee entry into the playoffs!
…
On a day off, the Grizzlies still only arranged simple tactical training. For the other two playoff teams that are not in the top five and eighth in the West, the Grizzlies are not worried even if they meet in the first round. In the playoffs, it is 7 games and 4 wins. Just play slowly. Winning or losing in the regular season is not so important, and there is no real targeted treatment.
Sun Ce just has the situation that he can't make any shots when playing games. There is no problem with training. He still practices what he should practice.
On the 7th, the home court ushered in the last match with the Clippers this season.
Unfortunately, the Grizzlies lost again...
The Clippers became the team that won the most times against the Grizzlies this season.
95 to 90, looking at this score, Griffin felt that his Tyrannosaurus Rex finally had a good turn this year!
In the four encounters, Sun Ce had a cold hand twice. Seeing Sun Ce only scored 15 points with 3 of 11 shots, Griffin felt that his time was coming!
…
Sun Ce only scored 15 points, 13 rebounds, 5 assists and 3 blocks, mainly because of his poor performance in scoring, with his average score dropping to 31.1 points per game, which made the Grizzlies fans more worried.
After the Grizzlies entered the end of the regular season in April, they had a record of 1 win and 2 losses, which also made Sun Ce and the Grizzlies questioned.
How come they played so well against the Thunder at the end of March, but in April, when they really entered the playoffs, the Grizzlies played so badly?
The main person being criticized was Sun Ce, who finally withered?
However, on April 9, the Grizzlies came to Sacramento to play the last match of the season against the Kings. Sun Ce made 15 of 22 shots, including 7 of 12 three-pointers, and scored 45 points, 22 rebounds, 6 assists and 4 blocks in 37 minutes of playing time. He vented a lot and shut up those who questioned him.
112 to 88, the Grizzlies beat the Kings. Sun Ce regained his touch and shot wildly in the face of the Kings' defense with the highest average points lost in the league...
The media were like fence-sitters.
Seeing Sun Ce get his 15th 40+ this season and widen the gap with Kobe's average points, the media immediately started to promote it again - those two games were just Sun Ce's bad touch, everyone has bad touch sometimes...
When praised, he was confident but not blindly proud; when looked down upon, he was angry but not irrational. Sun Ce was not affected by this kind of public opinion.
He scored 45 points, which was interpreted by some media and fans as "proving" himself. In fact, it was simply because Kobe tied his average of 31.1 points. He felt bad and shot wildly. It happened that he felt particularly good in shooting. The number of three-pointers that dropped to 4.06 per game returned to 4.1.
It was too tiring for Sun Ce to compete with other stars for so many things, but now it was almost done, and Sun Ce was unwilling to give up any of them!
He was a little greedy, and he himself felt that he was too greedy, but how could a man not be greedy?
After playing four consecutive home games, the next three games were away games, and the last two games were home games.
In this three-game away game, the weak Rockets were easy to play, but the Jazz and Lakers at the beginning and end were very troublesome!
…
Since the Mavericks won the night before, they already had 48 wins. If they win two more games, they will have 50 wins. In addition, the Mavericks had a record of 3 wins and 1 loss against the Jazz, and the Jazz could only get 50 wins at best. Therefore, the Jazz basically lost the chance to enter the playoffs, and the Grizzlies didn't care about this game at all.
Arrived in Salt Lake City at noon on the 10th, and prepared for the last game of the four-game away game against the Lakers in the afternoon.
However, even if the Jazz had a slim chance, they did not give up. Giving up at this time would be equivalent to turning a slim chance into no chance. What if the Mavericks lost three of the last four games?
It's not impossible!
Therefore, the Jazz still fought hard, and the players and coaches of the two teams did not attach the same importance to this game!
The Jazz traded Mo Williams for Marvin Williams, one of the James-like players, which was undoubtedly a huge profit!
Training him as James is definitely overestimating him, but he is fast and strong. In this era, he can defend from one to five when encountering certain opponents, which has played an important role in improving the defense of the Jazz, which is known as the Little Grizzlies.
The Grizzlies were careless and only scored 33 points in the first half, while the Jazz scored 39 points!
Sun Ce was very serious and tried hard to score, but he played 17 points in 18 minutes in the first half, and the whole team only scored 33 points!
The Jazz had strong and targeted defense, so they let Sun Ce shoot and pretended to give him a chance, but Carroll's defense was also good, and he didn't let Sun Ce get a particularly high score, and at the same time dragged the Grizzlies into the quagmire of a defensive battle.
Although the Grizzlies woke up and caught up in the second half, they had already entered the quagmire of a defensive battle.
In the end, although Sun Ce made 12 of 26 shots, 4 of 11 three-pointers, and 7 of 7 free throws to get 35 points, 17 rebounds, 4 blocks and 1 steal, he only had 3 assists. The Grizzlies lost miserably to the Jazz 76-81 away.
…
56 wins and 22 losses…
There are 4 games left, and they need to win all of them to get 60 wins. The Grizzlies themselves have tasted the bitterness of carelessness.
The closer it is to the end of the regular season, the more we cannot be careless!
You think the other side won't fight back, but in fact, the other side may be more eager to win than you, especially those teams with only a slim chance left, who want to win even more!
Even the Heat, a team that had a chance to hit 72 wins, was defeated by the Jazz. They were confident and eager to win, but the Grizzlies underestimated their opponents and really capsized.
After the Grizzlies' 2 wins and 3 losses, their record dropped from the highest to the third in the West to the bottom fifth.
On April 12, the Grizzlies came to Houston to challenge the Rockets in the second of their three consecutive away games. Because they lost to the Jazz, they went crazy on defense and broke down the other Rockets players who didn't play with Anthony...
91 to 66, the Grizzlies did their best to defend. If Nash hadn't played for 10 minutes and led the team to a 23 to 13 scoring climax from defense to madness, the Grizzlies would probably not even get 90 points.
Sun Ce also seized the opportunity to score 32 points, maintaining his average score of 31.4 points per game, slightly ahead of Kobe.
…
The first two games of the three-game road trip are over, and there are three games left. The Grizzlies' record has improved to 57 wins and 22 losses.
It completely exceeded the expectations before the season. At the beginning of the season, the Grizzlies coaching staff and players thought that getting 55 wins this season would be a very good record.
Unexpectedly, there is still a chance to hit 60 wins!
