One Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty-One. It's Nature.

On December 19, the Grizzlies came to Sacramento to rest for a night. After 2 hours and 22 minutes of play at 7 pm on the 20th, the Grizzlies defeated the Kings 117-102 with Paul George's 29 points, 6 rebounds and 2 assists and Sun Ce's 33 points, 12 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 blocks, and improved their record to 28 wins and 4 losses.

On December 21, at noon when the Grizzlies played the Trail Blazers back-to-back away, the NBA officially announced the latest Player of the Week.

After being snatched away by James last week, the Western Conference Player of the Week this week returned to Curry. Since the Grizzlies gave the Warriors their first losing streak of the season, Sun Ce also beat Curry in the duel. The balance of the MVP competition has tilted towards Sun Ce, and Sun Ce won the fifth Player of the Week this season!

However, in this world, it is always easy to "overjoy and turn to sorrow". After playing 4 games in 5 days, they rested for one day and played 3 games in 4 days, and they played three consecutive away games. When the last game of 7 games in 10 days started at 7 pm, the Grizzlies were in a very bad state.

The main reason was that the teammates were exhausted, and the three-day rest time was coming soon. They were a little impatient and wanted to defeat the opponent quickly, which made the impact even greater. This also affected Sun Ce. It was troublesome for Sun Ce to deal with Aminu, and now it was even more troublesome. He made 13 of 31 shots. Although Sun Ce scored 37 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and 1 block, the Grizzlies lost to the Trail Blazers 89-103 away.

Lillard scored 27 points, McCollum scored 25 points, Whiteside scored 14 points, 19 rebounds and 2 blocks... Trail Blazers fans had a good New Year in the last game before the Christmas game.

In this wave of 10 days and 7 days, the Grizzlies had 5 wins and 2 losses, and their record became 28 wins and 5 losses. They can still have such a record in 10 days and 7 games, and they also gave the Warriors a two-game losing streak in the middle. For the Grizzlies coaching staff, players and even fans, they are very satisfied.

It is a little regrettable that they lost the last game, and the number of losses reached 5 games, while the Warriors won the last game before the Christmas war, and the record became 32 wins and 3 losses. The difference between the Grizzlies and the Warriors reached two wins again.

But it is just a pity. The record cannot be compared with the Warriors. This kind of thing must be accepted and cannot be affected by this, otherwise other teams last season simply stopped playing. Their Grizzlies' record last season was better than the Warriors this season.

Moreover, they have an advantage, that is, their Grizzlies have not suffered a losing streak this season!

This seemingly useless thing may become one of the factors affecting the final result when the MVP competition is evenly matched.

At present, Sun Ce still has a slight advantage, but Sun Ce dare not be careless. It is almost the middle of the season. After this break, it will be a real test!

The team's running-in is getting better and better. In the middle of the season, the rotation of core players will become more fixed. The importance of role players has increased, but the strength is not as good as last season. They have to rely on these young players who don't need to rest to carry the team forward! He, Sun, is naturally the most important one.

Whether it is from the team's record or the competition for personal honors, he can't be careless, and he must play well!

Fortunately, he is now stronger than any previous season! Therefore, he is more confident!

……

The reform of the NBA's schedule in the past two years has been widely praised. First, the schedule was extended last season, and this season continued to be extended and the number of preseason games was restored to allow the players of each team to complete the same preparation as before. Therefore, the performance of each team in the early stage of this season is much better than last season.

The most praised by the players is the three-day rest time for each team on Christmas. Teams with Christmas games rest from the 22nd to the 24th, and teams without Christmas games rest from the 23rd to the 25th.

This gives most players the opportunity to spend time with their families on Christmas.

The Christmas game is a very clear schedule dividing line. From the Christmas game to the last regular season game before the All-Star Weekend, it is called the mid-season. Before the Christmas game is the early season, and after the All-Star Weekend is naturally the late season.

As for why the playoffs are not included... Because there are more than a dozen teams that cannot play in the playoffs, Americans are very sensitive, and fans are also very sensitive. If the media uses inappropriate words, they will immediately present them with a beautiful landscape.

It doesn't matter whether it discriminates against non-playoff teams, they just want to present a beautiful landscape.

However, there are no games these days, and the fans are not lonely. They are hotly discussing what new songs Sun Ce, who "peaked at the debut", will have this year. This is not only a matter of concern to basketball fans, but also to fans.

Sun Ce released too few songs, only a few every year, but each one was a hit. Even the English version of Sun Ce's earliest song "Pointing to the Moon" is still a challenge song for some professional singers in talent shows or competitions.

John's record company started promoting Sun Ce's new song on the first day of the Christmas holiday, without revealing the song title or style, but just wanted to promote it.

But even without any specific information, Sun Ce's new song, which won the Grammy Single of the Year for the first time he released a regular album, still became the headline of the entertainment section.

What makes Sun Ce's fans and singers regretful is that Sun Ce only treats singing as entertainment, and he only releases one song every year. He does not usually expand his influence in this area. Therefore, it is difficult for Sun Ce to have anything to do with the best singer in the next ten or eight years. He will have to get at least 10 or 20 songs, and then be nominated based on his popularity accumulation for many years.

But there is no doubt that Sun Ce is speculated to have a chance to win the best single this year, because Sun Ce's new songs are specially invited to be nominated for the Grammy Awards almost every year.

All major music players are also promoting Sun Ce's new song. Even if there are no clues, they are still promoting it vigorously, because Sun Ce's song release is like Sun Ce's performance in the NBA. There is nothing wrong with it. There is only better and no best.

At 9 am on December 25th, US time, John's record company's social media, NBA official, and Grizzlies' social media simultaneously released the link to the chief cooperative music player, and all major music players simultaneously released Sun Ce's new song - the Chinese name is "Nature is Like This", and the English name is "Natural".

Once released, this song instantly swept the world!

…

Some media once criticized Sun Ce’s new song because people had high expectations. Those who criticized it didn’t say that Sun Ce’s new song might not be good, but because the expectations were too high, if the level was just good, it would definitely not be enough.

But the facts proved that the doubts were unnecessary. The three major music players in China, the four major music players in North America, and 11 music players in Europe... the servers in most regions were down!

In just 9 minutes, the global statistical paid downloads of this new song exceeded one million, breaking the record of one million downloads in 12 minutes created by Taylor Swift! And this was achieved on the basis of increasingly stuck servers!

Then, major music players began to be down.

When Sun Ce saw the news that the servers of major music players had crashed, he was not happy, but his heart was bleeding... It was all money!

He is a "composer, lyricist, singer", and the record company is his. Except for the dividends and advertising for those players... all the other money is his!

When playing against the Kings, he completed back-to-back triple-doubles. He actively triggered the "artist's fantasy" and drew the perfect singing card for this song.

Seeing the title of this song, Sun Ce knew it would be a big hit, but the popularity was far beyond his imagination. He also knew that this had a lot to do with his performance in the NBA. As the saying goes, both literature and sports are good... Anyway, this wave of money is huge!

Fortunately, not long after, all the major music players that had turned on the backup servers returned to normal, and the download volume of the new rock-style song that Sun Ce drew continued to soar.

Sun Ce once again shocked those professional music critics, because the style of the song was too big. The deep but powerful voice, the singing skills that sounded perfect, and the most important lyrics!

Natural, is understood as "I came here for this", and people who listen to this song naturally put it into Sun Ce's basketball career. The lyrics in it seem to be "telling the voice of the heart", and there is no sense of disobedience!

It sounds good, positive and energetic, and can be put into the image of the singer in front of the public, so it naturally became a hit!

…

The popularity of Sun Ce’s new song not only made the electronic version of the single constantly break records, but also the number of paid viewers of the evening concert almost doubled compared to last year!

Many fans who listened to the electronic version wanted to listen to the concert version.

In just one day, Sun Ce received more than 10 million US dollars in copyright share in the Asia-Pacific region outside Europe, America and China, and the total paid downloads in these regions reached more than 30 million times!

Moreover, the profit settlement of the concert has not yet been announced, and all this money will go into his foundation...

The authoritative financial magazine Forbes joked that Sun Ce’s income can be ranked among the top ten male stars in the world in terms of income from selling one record and holding one concert every year, excluding other income, and called on other male stars to play basketball to get some popularity.

In addition to Sun Ce’s own popularity in the sports and music circles, the quality of this concert is also far better than in the past few years.

Because the quality of the songs is high! They are all songs written by some well-known songwriters for these participating players, and they are songs that can be used as album hits for other professional singers.

Not to mention the high quality, Sun Ce was feeling lucky before his finale performance that he had drawn a hit song this year that was absolutely better than any other. This group of amateur players with bad intentions practiced countless times before the concert, and each of their performances was excellent.
