Five Hundred and Eighty-Seven. The Physical Crisis of Fat People

91 to 80, the Grizzlies' 5-game winning streak came easily. Morrow came off the bench and scored a game-high 26 points. The Grizzlies easily improved their record to 18 wins and 3 losses.

Nothing special happened in playing the Hornets. The next morning after playing the Hornets, the Grizzlies left for Oklahoma City to challenge the Thunder, who currently surpassed the Trail Blazers and Nuggets and ranked fourth in the Western Conference. .

On the way to Oklahoma City, Sun Ce looked at the current record rankings and found that the Northwest Division had stood up!

The current top eight in the Western Conference include four teams in the Southwest Division, three teams in the Northwest Division, and only the Lakers in the prosperous and rich Pacific Division are ranked in the top eight in the Western Conference.

After arriving at the hotel in Oklahoma City, Sun Ce went to the hotel's indoor court to practice shooting.

Oklahoma City is boring. It is the air force town of the United States. It is a city with extremely underdeveloped tourism, so there is not much to do.

Memphis's urbanization is average enough, but Oklahoma City's is even worse. Memphis covers an area of ​​more than 700 square kilometers and has a permanent population of about 700,000. Oklahoma City's area is more than double that of Memphis, and its population is not much. to 500,000...

Sun Ce didn't know what kind of entertainment activities the players here usually had, and lamented that it was no wonder Harden didn't have any nightclub rumors when he was in Oklahoma City.

There is absolutely nothing to do.

Originally, Sun Ce thought that he could catch up with Harden or Westbrook to catch up with old times. As for Durant, Sun Ce felt that Durant was hostile to him for no apparent reason. He guessed that it was about the World Championships.

But the Thunder are on consecutive road trips. They have one more game tonight against the Mavericks, and tomorrow they will go to Oklahoma City to face the Grizzlies.

Sun Ce can only be a lonely trainer, while his teammates are lying dead in the hotel...

…

On the evening of the 12th, Sun Ce and his teammates entered the stadium after warming up.

Looking at the group of young talents opposite, Sun Ce felt a little stressed.

Last night, the Thunder challenged the Mavericks away from home, 107-106, Durant defeated the Mavericks.

Westbrook had a triple-double of 15 points, 10 rebounds and 14 assists, and Ibaka's key block on Yao Ming...

After just ten days of absence, the Thunder seems to be getting stronger again!

The Grizzlies currently have 18 wins and 3 losses, ranking second in the league behind the Spurs, who also have 19 wins and 3 losses.

The Thunder have now played 23 games and have 14 wins and 9 losses. Since losing to the Grizzlies on the last day last month, the Thunder have won five consecutive games and suddenly jumped from eighth in the Western Conference to fourth in the Western Conference.

For Sun Ce, after watching the live broadcast of the Thunder and Mavericks last night, I really feel that this team composed of contemporaries is getting better and better.

Sun Ce remembered that Nowitzki had not yet fully integrated into the Mavericks' system until the end of the season. In the original time and space, during the first round of the playoffs this season, public opinion believed that the Mavericks were going to go to the first round again, thinking that they were going to be killed by the Trail Blazers. , it wasn't until they defeated the Trail Blazers that Nowitzki truly integrated, and then started an invincible playoff journey.

But with Yao Ming, the pressure on Nowitzki is not so great. Yao Ming can penetrate all centers in less than 24 minutes of physical strength, allowing Nowitzki to integrate into the team more easily.

Although the Thunder defeated the Mavericks, who had not reached their peak state, they were still the Mavericks with the strongest twin towers. No matter how good the Mavericks were, they were still a team that could win at least fifty-four or five games. Defeating the Mavericks in the last game of 5 consecutive away games... This is definitely a huge confidence boost for the Thunder players!

However, Sun Ce only felt the pressure and was not surprised that the Thunder became stronger, because he knew that when Harden grows up next season, the Thunder will become a finals-level team.

Unlike others, the Thunder have improved again this year, which is beyond most people's expectations.

With the Timberwolves and Kings failing to hoard talent, many people are not optimistic about the Thunder's approach to hoarding talent.

I didn’t expect the Thunder to actually succeed.

Harden's talent was noticed by many people in his second year, but they didn't expect that Harden was really willing to play on the bench honestly, and he was the seventh man. Jeff Green was the sixth man, and Jeff -Green is also willing to play the sixth man, letting Durant, Westbrook, and Ibaka serve as the core...

What's the biggest problem with a team that's too talented?

The Timberwolves' bunch of point guards even got into fights during team training, but the Thunder didn't. The Thunder team fought it out!

Compared with the Thunder's current overwhelming state, Sun Ce is a little disappointed that Harden didn't come over to chat. When he used to play here, Harden would come to the visiting team's training ground before the game.

What Sun Ce didn't know was that Harden also wanted to go over and talk to Sun Ce and ask how he could become popular.

However, when Harden looked at Durant...it was the elder brother's mood that mattered...

At 6:58, the referee signaled the two teams to start.

Sun Ce came to the technical stage, and Durant also came to the technical stage. The two looked at each other with admiration.

But while Durant appreciates it, he is also deeply jealous.

The Grizzlies played the Rockets, and Sun Ce scored 10 points in the final quarter. Black Widow's Twitter retweeted T.N.T's article praising Sun Ce...

Sun Ce thought this was normal. Black Widow often reposted it when he performed well in the past. Scarlett Johansson was already the most famous fan in Hollywood, so Sun Ce didn't take it to heart.

But Durant cares!

Just when Durant was looking at Sun Ce with a mixture of admiration and jealousy, he suddenly saw Sun Ce put his hand into the collar of the jersey and took out a pair of goggles... then stuffed it back and took out the goggles. bring……

"watt?"

Looking at Sun Ce who was tying up his wristbands in a coquettish way, Durant really wanted to lift Sun Ce's jersey to see how it was stuffed in?

…

There are times when you are in excellent condition, and there are naturally times when you are in extremely bad condition.

The most intuitive expression of whether the state is good or not is whether the ball that should be made can be made!

Just like today's Thunder team, they made all the shots that should be made, and Durant also made the shots that shouldn't be made based on his personal ability.

On the other hand, the Grizzlies have shown a decline in form since their last game against the Hornets. For most of the last game, many of the shots they should have missed were missed, and they only scored 91 points against the Hornets. ...If Morrow hadn't exploded and scored 26 points, winning might not have been a big problem, but the score might have been shockingly low.

Today, the Grizzlies' offensive state continues to be sluggish. The more this happens, the more the Grizzlies have to defend, but the Thunder are in very good shape since entering December, and the Thunder's defense is not bad either!

In today's game, in the first three quarters, except for Paul George, who came off the bench, Paul George made 2 of 4, Yi Jianlian made 2 of 3, and DeAndre Jordan made 2 of 2, no other team's shooting percentage exceeded 40%!

With such a poor shooting performance, after three quarters, the Grizzlies trailed the Thunder by 20 points, 51-71.

Seeing that there was no sign of a comeback, Coach Hollins directly replaced the main starting lineup and let Jason Williams, Morrow, Paul George, Yi Jianlian, and DeAndre Jordan come up as a pure substitute lineup, and have the opportunity to rely on substitute players. The impact of the attack was overwhelming, but it couldn't be overcome.

The Thunder still used Harden, Sefolosha, Durant, Ibaka, and Muhammad to play the last quarter, and they did not dare to underestimate the Grizzlies' rotation.

The Thunder are envious of the benches of the Grizzlies, Rockets, Mavericks, and Spurs in the Southwest Division.

In order to ensure that they can win the game, the Thunder team did not dare to underestimate the garbage time.

…

Sun Ce sat on the bench, watching Jason Williams and Harden play against each other, but his attention was not on the game.

According to his understanding of Coach Hollins, this coach is very ruthless. He won't replace the main players if he doesn't want to. No, he will give up the game directly after five ups and five downs, just to prepare for the next game.

Sun Ce played 25 minutes in the third quarter and made only 3 of 11 shots. He scored 10 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists. Although he blocked Westbrook and Jeff Green each, he still failed to contain the opponent.

Sun Ce feels a sense of crisis now!

Today's game made him feel something was wrong. It seemed that the team's offensive state suddenly collapsed... Of course, it was not good to begin with, but just because their offense was not good to begin with, others didn't seem to feel anything.

But Sun Ce feels it now. It seems that his team has entered the state too early!

The Grizzlies have been in good shape in the first 20 games. Except for the poor state in the loss to the Kings, the Grizzlies have been in good shape in the other 19 games, including the two losses to the Spurs.

This is a bit like Sun Ce’s impression of the Pacers. There was a season where the Pacers had a better record before January than the Spurs, who had the best half-season record in history. But starting from January, the Pacers’ state The inexplicable collapse, and the avalanche after the All-Star weekend, Hibbert was regarded as the favorite for the best defensive player from the beginning of the season, to Gao Yuanyuan in the second half of the season...

Sun Ce feels that the situation of his team is a bit similar to the Pacers that year in his memory! It’s all status that comes too early!

Sun Ce didn't think this was overthinking. He reviewed the reasons for the poor offense in these two games. They were both shooting well from the outside at the beginning of the season. At a certain point, he suddenly felt cold and the opponent saw that the outside shooting was not successful. shrink……

Investigating the reason, Sun Ce thinks it is physical strength!

Fighting too hard!

It is the nature of professional athletes to pursue victory. Since the beginning of the game, the Grizzlies have lost to the Kings in a very poor state after 11 consecutive victories, and also lost to the Spurs twice. They have the chance to win other games, and they have fought hard to win. Everyone is fighting.

However, starting from the three-quarter defeat of the Thunder on November 30, the Grizzlies have clocked out in the third quarter of three games, and their mentality suddenly relaxed. It was okay to play against the Rockets. With Yi Jianlian's explosion and Sun Ce's three goals in the last quarter, the Grizzlies won. It came down, but when the Hornets started playing later, it was not easy to pick up the offense!

The main thing is the physical condition of the whole team!
