Four Hundred and Seventy-Two. The Chinese Game Is Coming!

In the West, the basic goal of the season is the second round of the playoffs... quite bold!

In the hell of the West, it's not uncommon for a team that started the playoffs as a championship contender to be eliminated in the first round.

Up to now, there have been 3 black eights in NBA history, two of which were normal black eights in the West, but the East's black eights have shrunk the season. The first eighth in the East is only 6 wins away. The 50-win Celtics beat the 61-win Cavaliers by 32 points in the Battle of Tianwangshan. The black eight in the Eastern Conference was actually just a close series, and the Knicks only won by one point in the fifth tie.

Therefore, except for those few championship teams, almost no western team's management has made it so clear to the players at the beginning of the season that they will at least reach the second round.

Generally speaking, they are very general statements, such as the Rockets' "Our goal is the championship, don't underestimate our championship heart".

But for the Grizzlies players, it has become a way to motivate them.

Represents the confidence of the team!

Although this is also pressure on the young players of the Grizzlies who have achieved results last season and want to go further this season, it is also a motivation.

On October 9th, Sun Ce and his teammates first arrived in Miami, and then flew for nearly nine hours on a chartered plane to Madrid Barajas Airport.

It was lunch time when we took off from Miami, and it happened to be breakfast time on the 10th after flying to Madrid... This feeling is really sour.

In fact, if the time difference reaches between 8 hours and 16 hours, it is relatively easier to adjust. The six-hour time difference is really uncomfortable, and it can't go up or down.

Sun Ce was stunned to watch TV in the hotel to see the evening, and then went to the gym to practice the Nash training method.

On the 11th, the match against Real Madrid arrived.

At breakfast time, most of the players suffered from jet lag, mainly because it was difficult to adapt to the 6-hour jet lag.

But there was an interview this morning, and an appearance at a charity event in Madrid on behalf of the NBA at noon, and I only had time to rest in the afternoon, and I had to play against Real Madrid in the evening.

But when everyone else was half-dead, I saw Sun Ce walking among the media full of energy...

I'm jealous!

This stamina recovery ability is too strong!

Sun Ce's physical recovery ability is well-known in the NBA, which is commonly known as grass resistance, but the new teammates were shocked to see that Sun Ce had to practice extra after training every day, and he was able to recover every day.

Even the rookie Paul George, who is half a year younger than Sun Ce, is far inferior to Sun Ce in terms of physical recovery.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the Grizzlies' away game against Real Madrid began.

After a delay of more than a day, the Grizzlies players finally recovered some form in the evening. As last season's Champions League semi-finals and league champions, Real Madrid's strength belongs to the top group in the current European Basketball League. Their strength is not bad. The game between the Grizzlies and Real Madrid was intense.

Spain has several players who are capable of impacting the NBA and have the strength of NBA starters. Among them is the 19-year-old Nikola Mirotic. The Bears don't want it, and Randolph, Yi Jianlian, and Battier's defense is useless.

The basketball strength of the Spanish team, if the strongest players are all out, such as playing in the Olympics... it is really the second in the world!

As for the strength of the world basketball world, Sun Ce estimates that the United States should be the only one, and the second is Spain. The other countries are not in the top two.

A player like Mirotic was not selected for this year's World Championships...

The Thunder's Ibaka, after being naturalized in Spain, is currently not selected for the Spanish national team because he is still too good.

Sun Ce didn't play much today, and was replaced after a few minutes of playing as a substitute, mainly because Vazquez adapted to the adult game rhythm on the court.

The two teams played very anxiously in the first three quarters, because the Grizzlies used the rotation lineup and marginal players most of the time.

The Grizzlies' 15-man roster is full, and they didn't sign a training camp contract, so they directly started to run in the role player lineup.

Like Sun Ce, his characteristic is that he can quickly adapt to most styles of play, so it is mainly the tactics of other people to cooperate with the drill.

In the first three quarters, I tried the pure defensive lineup of Conley, Tony Allen, Battier, Yi Jianlian, and Gasol; European tactics...

The main reason is that the Grizzlies have the mentality of adapting tactics, so that Real Madrid can compete with the Grizzlies.

In the fourth quarter, the Grizzlies dispatched a lineup of Conley, Tony Allen, Gay, Battier, and Gasol Jr., scoring a score of 26-14 in a single quarter.

Gay scored 15 points in the final quarter, helping the Grizzlies complete a comeback after falling behind 77 to 80 in three quarters, and reversed Real Madrid 103 to 94 to win their first preseason victory.

The focus is on defense! Battier was the best defense against Mirotic, who scored 33 points in a single game. Of course, it was relative. Mirotic still scored 7 points in the final quarter, but Conley, Tony Allen, and Gay from the outside The extremely aggressive defensive combination formed even the top outside line in the NBA will be peeled off. There is also a little Gasol on the inside who only played 9 minutes in the first three quarters and is almost full in the fourth quarter. There is no sudden movement, and there is no chance to vote.

It is true that NBA playoff-level teams and strong teams in European leagues still have great advantages in strength. The game is mainly about tactical integration.

Sun Ce played for 7 minutes. Although his recovery ability is strong, the coaching staff still wants him to rest as much as possible before the start of the regular season. Anyway, from the overall point of view, there is no need to worry about the running-in between Sun Ce and his teammates.

The coaching staff is very aware of Sun Ce's terrible adaptability, so he doesn't need to play in the first game, and Sun Ce has to show his face more in the next China game, just like today's 12-minute final quarter against Real Madrid Gasol.

...

After playing Real Madrid, the next day at 7:00 am on the 12th, the Grizzlies flew to the imperial capital of China...

Coincidentally, another 6 hours of time difference!

This time it was relatively better. It was a direct flight from Madrid-Barajas Airport to Capital International Airport. I arrived at the Imperial Capital at around 10 pm, and went back to the hotel to sleep.

This time it was relatively beneficial to have some experience. The players stayed awake on the plane, and only started to sleep when they arrived at the hotel in the imperial capital. On the second day, the spirits of the Grizzlies players were much better than when they went to Spain.

On the 13th, the Mavericks also came to the capital after the game against Leverkusen in the Bundesliga.

With 3 days left before the China game on the 16th, the match between two teams with China's three major NBA stars ignited a domestic basketball storm!
