One Thousand Three Hundred and Nineteen. Peace of Mind

There weren't many emotional changes. He wasn't particularly nervous because the playoffs were coming. He didn't think "I want to do something big in the playoffs." Sun Ce felt that the transition was very natural.

After the regular season, it's time to play the playoffs - that's what Sun Ce is thinking now.

Compared to Klay Thompson and Paul George who want to show their abilities in the playoffs; compared to Jimmy Butler and Beverley who want to take advantage of this year's playoffs to make the coaching staff see them and get a chance next season... Sun Ce seemed quite calm.

Maybe it was because he was fighting all season, and when it came to the playoffs, he needed to get nervous, and Sun Ce had gotten used to this nervous sprint feeling.

Sun Ce also felt some changes in the team. Since Nash and Battier, two veterans, wanted to retire, Prince, the veteran who was invited back to replace Battier in the future, didn't have to worry too much. This guy was as calm as he could be.

But Beverley wanted to get more opportunities next season, and Jimmy Butler was eyeing the position of Paul George or Klay Thompson.

Everyone can see that the Grizzlies cannot keep both Klay Thompson and Paul George at the same time. Although as teammates, the team atmosphere is very good now, Jimmy Butler and Klay Thompson trained together in the summer, but healthy competition can exist.

Even the most harmonious team will have internal competition. Sun Ce saw these subtle changes, but did not ask about them. This is what should exist.

…

In the evening, after chatting with Nash about the playoffs for a while, Sun Ce went to pick up Zu Ge and returned home. Looking at the little Gohan who was only more than two months old and had a professional pianist to perform for him, Sun Ce didn't know what he could understand in more than two months.

Sun Ce's father also paused Sun Ce's words, but in the end he couldn't beat Lily Collins and Sun Ce's mother, saying that he had to be nurtured from an early age to inherit his musical talent like Sun...

Thinking that little Gohan might be overwhelmed by a pile of schoolwork when he grows up, Sun Ce felt - happy to see!

Coming to the indoor basketball court in the backyard for training, Sun Ce first opened the system's ability evaluation section.

"Ability evaluation A:

Physical fitness A+: speed S-, strength A, core strength S-level, endurance A, jumping B, static confrontation A, leg explosive power A+ (explosive acceleration, rebound speed), explosive confrontation ability A+...

Shooting evaluation A-: three-pointer B+ (right sideline three-pointer B+,

left sideline three-pointer C+, top arc three-pointer A), mid-range shot A (mid-range shot on the right side of the baseline A+, mid-range shot in front of the basket A+, mid-range shot on the right side of the three-second zone A+, mid-range shot on the left side of the three-second zone B+, left side of the three-second zone A-), right-hand layup A+, left-hand layup A+...

Technical evaluation A: left-hand ball control A+, right-hand ball control A+, pass A, pick-and-roll jump shot A-, dribble shot A, pull-up jump shot B-, low post back-up skills A, high post back-up skills A, three-threat stance C, jump step C+..."

It's just a little bit away. Sun Ce feels that his right corner hook and right sideline three-pointer are not much different from the top arc three-pointer shot at the beginning of this season.

If the stable shooting area of ​​3-pointers or mid-range shots can be further expanded, Sun Ce feels that he can reach the quasi-top level of A+ level!

Although it may reach another big bottleneck at that time, and the strength brought by the previously laid solid foundation may fall into a certain period of stagnation, but isn’t it for this leap that he worked so hard to lay the foundation before?

This season is a season that truly establishes the status of a superstar. After this year's regular season, no one says that he is not a top player anymore. Even ESPN can only insist on blacking him from a more tricky angle.

And what Sun Ce wants is not just the regular season, but the defense!

Although his mentality is very calm, it does not mean that he does not want to fight!

There is also crossover dribbling, which is getting better and better. The dribbling behind the back and turning jump shot should also seize the last time to practice more.

Although it may not be possible to improve the level, it is always right to practice more. The playoffs are coming soon, and it is better to sharpen the gun before the battle.

…

The preparation for the playoffs has begun!

On April 21, the Clippers came to Memphis, and both the Grizzlies and the Clippers have invested in the preparations for the first round.

Griffin came to Sun Ce for lunch. Griffin was very nervous for the first time playing in the playoffs, but he was also very confident because they "defended" Sun Ce very badly every time, and Sun Ce was "affected" in the next few games.

Although Griffin also felt that this situation was incredible, because sometimes Caron Butler defended Sun Ce and could "defend" Sun Ce...

We didn't talk too much, just had lunch. In the afternoon, the two returned to the FedEx Center and separated. Both teams were very focused in their preparations.

In the past two days, various lists and predictions from major media have come out.

In terms of the list, it is mainly the list of players from the teams participating in the playoffs.

As usual, the defending champion ranked first in the team strength rankings. ESPN ranked the Heat second, the Spurs third, the Bulls fourth, and the Lakers fifth. Sports Illustrated ranked the Heat second, but the Lakers third, the Spurs fourth, and the Bulls fifth. .T ranked the Spurs third, the Lakers fourth, and the Thunder fifth...

70 wins still had a strong impact on the media. The Heat's regular season performance was really good.

In the playoff power rankings, Sports Illustrated and .T both ranked Sun Ce first, but ESPN ranked James first.

This caused quite a bit of controversy. It is true that James is the MVP, but in terms of personal performance, Sun Ce is not inferior to James in the regular season. James is efficient and has good statistics. Although Sun Ce is less efficient, his statistics are better. Moreover, Sun Ce was the MVP of the finals last season. For example, in the 10-11 season, Kobe's regular season performance declined significantly, but he still ranked first in the list at the beginning of the playoffs.

However, Sun Ce has gotten used to this. This is ESPN. Not to mention, even the players who were hacked think that the existence of ESPN is necessary. If there is no controversy at all, there will be no popularity.

For example, in the last issue of the MVP rankings for the entire season, the NBA officially gave the first place to James, who won 11 weekly and 4 monthly awards this season... No one cares at all, and it is not as popular as the forum repost of the prediction of the best sixth man.

This year, except for MVP, best manager, and best rookie, the competition for other awards is unexpectedly fierce.

Best Defensive Player, five favorites + Sun Ce; Best Sixth Man, the competition is very fierce; Best Coach, three or four head coaches compete...

However, on April 22, the opening day of the playoffs, an award prediction came out, and Sun Ce really didn't expect to see his name... It's the Most Improved Award again!
