One Thousand Five Hundred and Two. Management Conspiracy
Just like the rookie summary last season, although Lillard is not bad, Anthony Davis's talent is indeed not comparable to Lillard.
After a season of adaptation period and a summer of hard training to gain weight, Anthony Davis has become a top insider comparable to Gasol!
This year's winning streak ended very early for each team, with 8 teams starting with 2 wins and 1 loss.
But there is another team that has been undefeated in the first 3 games, and that is the Pacers that the Grizzlies are about to face!
On the night of November 6th, the Pacers faced the challenge of the Grizzlies and defeated the Grizzlies at home 92-88, winning their fourth consecutive victory!
In this game, Sun Ce played 40 minutes, making 13 of 31 shots, scoring 31 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists, 1 block and 2 steals. Overall, it was okay. Klay Thompson's 18 points were also very stable, and Gasol scored 12 points. 4 rebounds and 4 assists are not bad, and the overall defense is also pretty good.
But the offense was too unstable. Paul George only scored 7 points. He failed to score in double figures for the first time in the new season. He still had 11 points against the Mavericks.
As for the Pacers, the starting lineup of Darren Collison, Hayward, Lance Stephenson, David West, and Hibbert performed extremely well.
Energetic and positive!
In front of the Pacers, the Grizzlies felt "dead".
Although Sun Ce scored 31 points, the Grizzlies also lost to the Pacers by 4 points.
…
…
Starting with 2 wins and 2 losses, they fell to sixth place in the Western Conference.
The day after playing the Pacers, Sun Ce flew back to Memphis with the team.
Choosing a seat by the window, Sun Ce looked at the upcoming schedule, four consecutive home games, the Celtics, Pelicans, Warriors, and Raptors, all tough matches.
But on my own side, the start was not good, and there was not even a chance to adjust!
In the first eight games, except for the Pistons and Celtics, who have difficulty making the playoffs, the other six opponents are all playoff-level teams.
This is the treatment a strong team deserves.
At the beginning, fans were attracted to buy the live broadcast. However, Sun Ce does not want the treatment of a strong team now.
He wants to play against a weak team and let his teammates feel it.
It was so smooth to win in the preseason, but in the regular season, I was beaten continuously...
The past three games have been different from when we played the Spurs!
When playing against the Spurs, Sun Ce felt that the team worked well together, but later on, he may have underestimated his opponent too much, or he may have been in really bad shape, and the teamwork was not very good.
Don't think about it anymore, Sun Ce feels that things will get better as the season progresses.
This kind of situation will always happen in his career. Sun Ce decided to prepare well for every game and just fight hard.
If you lose a few games, your mentality will explode... Think about other people, even Duncan, didn't he have 50 wins in the regular season and get out of the first round of the playoffs?
Playing in the NBA, you will always experience situations like this. What you have to do now is to try your best to win every game and create opportunities for teammates to adjust.
…
While Sun Ce was adjusting himself and watching the game reports and scouting reports of the next four opponents' opening games, in a compartment on the chartered plane, coach Hollins and Chris Wallace were discussing the team's current situation. .
"Leonard, although the season has just begun and we still have a lot of time to adjust, we should also be prepared to make large-scale adjustments." Chris Wallace said to coach Hollins.
Coach Hollins asked, "You're saying we're going to be ready to break up the core of the roster that won the last two years?"
Regarding this, Coach Hollins does not agree so much. The season has only been going on for a week, with 2 wins and 2 losses. Although it is not good, it is not bad either.
In Coach Hollins' view, they have enough talent and will get better if they adjust slowly.
"No, it's not about breaking up, but we should adjust our team strategy. The current rules are more and more inclined to fast play. As you can see, our three young outsiders are too talented and should not be bloated. The inside line drags the feet.”
Coach Hollins also knows that the talent and strength of his three young players on the outside are explosive, and since the beginning of this season, they have often been "dragged down" by the inside. However, after a few years, it is impossible to say that they have no feelings.
Moreover, Coach Hollins still had a doubt: "Zach is like a brother to Noah, and he would not agree."
"We're not going to touch Zach, and I understand that Noah calls Zach boss at all times."
"Not Zach? You mean Mark? He is the backbone of our defense! Our defense in the playoffs relies on him!"
Coach Hollins thought Chris Wallace was going to trade Randolph, but he didn't expect it was Gasol, which is even more unacceptable.
A center who is good at playing in the playoffs and is an NBA Defensive Player of the Year.
"We should make changes. We have Larry and Noah, who can guarantee defense in a fast style of play. More importantly, we can try to create space and let Paul stay. I am not afraid of you making fun of me. I have a dream , I not only want two championships, if possible, I hope we can wear rings on one hand when we have such a good opportunity!
Even though we are in a small ball market!
Only by adapting to the rules of the league and adapting to the faster and faster pace can we realize this dream. "
Coach Hollins was very moved when he heard this!
Chris Wallace's tone was not intense, but what he said made Coach Hollins' heart surge.
Coach Hollins is not blind to the changes in the league's rules, but like most coaches, he is not so willing to make changes.
However, the league has seen so many crazy things because of them, even Kobe and James have joined forces.
Many coaches know that they may be outdated in the future, but they are still unwilling to change. This is not a trivial matter. It is possible that they can hold on for a few more years if they do not change. If they change and fail to change, they may lose the opportunity to be the head coach in the NBA.
This happens every year, either the old-school coaches stay away from the NBA, or the coaches who want to make drastic changes are eliminated.
For example, George Karl, who won the best coach last season, was fired by the Nuggets after the playoffs last year.
However, if the temptation is enough, Coach Hollins will choose to take that step.
For example, as Chris Wallace said, with three young stars on the outside as the core, the team will undergo earth-shaking changes...
"But trading is not a good option now."
"I know, I will wait until the team's situation starts to improve before starting to adjust. We also need to examine the trading targets. After the season goes on and we have determined the players we need and their status, we will start to think of ways to change..."
