Six Hundred and Eighty-Two. The Mid-Season Is Their Carnival
Coming to Toronto in the ice and snow, the Grizzlies' touch seemed to be frozen.
After hiding in the hotel for a night's rest, Sun Ce and his teammates went to the Canadian Airlines Center Arena the next afternoon to challenge the Raptors away from home.
The Grizzlies felt cold throughout the game and couldn't make any shots. Sun Ce made 9 of 24 shots and actually had the highest shooting percentage.
Although Sun Ce scored 22 points, 11 rebounds and 3 assists, the Grizzlies team's shooting percentage was only 34%. They played at a fast pace but couldn't score any points!
With the two teams playing at such a fast pace and both shooting more than 85 times, neither team could score more than 90 points. It looked like the scores were produced by grinding the defense, but fans who watched the Canadian live broadcast on Columbia Broadcasting and Television know that, This is just a blacksmith fight.
76 to 88, the Grizzlies defeated the Raptors on the road, ending their five-game winning streak.
Regarding this game, Sun Ce had only one sentence when he was interviewed after the game: "The winter in Canada is a bit cold..."
…
…
The two consecutive away games are over, and what follows is a sweet wave of three consecutive home games. The opponents are the Cavaliers, Jazz, and Pistons. Don't be too happy. Coach Hollins has already begun to think about how to take a rest.
Sun Ce returned to the apartment and had a rest today. Tomorrow, the 13th, he will face the Cavaliers.
Although he always takes a day off after playing a game, and sometimes there are away games, Sun Ce already feels very relaxed with this month's schedule, so relaxed that he can dance happily.
The Grizzlies' current record is 29 wins and 8 losses, and they are about to win 30 games in less than 40 games. Forgetting the schedule that started in February for the time being, Sun Ce looked at his team's record in the scout report. It was so dreamy. .
Originally, Sun Ce wanted to temporarily indulge in the satisfaction of enjoying the results, and then he saw his average points per game.
Averaged 199 points, 123 rebounds, 67 assists, 37 blocks and 13 steals per game...
Just a little bit different!
After the previous 58 points, he had averaged 198 points per game. Later, he had a 20+ game and improved to 199. However, he only scored 14 points against the Nets and dropped back to 198. He scored 22 points against the Raptors and scored 22 points again. Back to 199.
Just a little bit different,
You can become a star averaging 20+5+5 per game!
This made Sun Ce feel a little dizzy.
But when he played against the Raptors, he felt that when his teammates were not playing well, he really couldn't do anything except high shots and low hits to score points, and rely on his teammates to get rebounds. His performance was He and his teammates complement each other. If the Raptors didn't attack well, he would not have been able to maintain the team's dignity with 22 points in a single game.
Thinking of this, Sun Ce calmed down immediately because of how good the team's record was and how beautiful his personal data was.
"It's not time to float yet!"
Sun Ce put the quilt over his head, took a nap, and continued training in the afternoon!
…
…
"Lord, lord... take a rest for a while..."
"Oh, okay."
"H, God, why did you practice even harder during the easy schedule..."
Tim Hardaway looked speechlessly at Sun Ce, who had soaked his training clothes with sweat. This kid had just returned to Memphis in the morning. At 2:30 in the afternoon, he called him out to practice shooting and even asked him to lose weight. Let’s do aerobics between shooting sessions together…
And it takes more than two hours to practice!
"Lord, you have to take advantage of the relaxed schedule this month to rest more. Lionel didn't arrange much training for you. You train more in one day than others in a week. How can this be done? We still have three We have three months of regular season to play, and there are playoffs..." Tim Hardaway didn't know whether he was complaining or what kind of mood he was in when he said this.
Sun Ce nodded while listening. He listened, but he definitely didn't really go to rest. After Tim Hardaway finished speaking, Sun Ce replied: "I'm different from you. I just need to sleep at night." I have to train more when I have more rest time. You have been practicing three-pointers for a year, so I can’t lose to you!
Although it is impossible to become the three-point champion in a year and a half like you did, I hope that at least I will not be held back by the lack of three-pointers. "
After hearing what Sun Ce said, Tim Hardaway wanted to slap this guy to death!
He practiced for almost 18 months and mastered the three-pointer. However, after he was injured, he practiced every day. He practiced for more than ten months while having financial resources and putting aside the interference of external objects. In the new season, he maintained his performance before the serious injury. He didn't want to practice from the beginning, but the doctor told him that his explosive power would be greatly weakened and he could only start practicing three-pointers.
He didn't do anything during that year and a half, just practicing three-pointers, and then he got it right.
As a result, this kid said that he would need more than a year to practice three-point shooting...
"Your recovery ability is amazing! Your resistance to grass is amazing! It seems to be quite amazing. This kid is like a monster. He has played so hard in every game this year and is still improving..."
Tim Hardaway actually felt frustrated. He felt that he was already a genius among geniuses when he was a player, and this kid was even better than he was at that time!
…
At the end of another day of training, Sun Ce returned to his apartment and looked at his latest ability evaluation. He felt that the hard work was worth it.
"Ability evaluation b+,
Physical fitness a-: speed s-, strength b, endurance a-, jumping +, leg explosive force a, explosive impact force b...
Shooting evaluation b-: three-pointer f+, mid-range shot b (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 b+, other positions -), layup a+...
Technical evaluation a-: ball control a+, passing a, jump shot after pick-and-roll, shooting after dribbling a-, pull-up jump shot -, low-post back-to-the-basket technique a-, high-post back-to-the-basket technique b+..."
Low-post back-to-the-basket technique has been upgraded from b+ to a-! The mid-range shot on the right side of the baseline has also been upgraded from a- to a, and the three-pointer is also improving. It is estimated that it will not be difficult to break through to the - level. Although the - level is not enough to be used in the game, it is time to lay the foundation and patience is needed.
In addition to the technical aspects, Sun Ce feels that his endurance has also improved significantly. Although it has not yet broken through to the a level, I guess it's not far off.
Physical strength is the key to being able to perform smoothly in the game. Although there is definitely a limit to physical strength, no matter how much you practice after reaching the limit, there will be no obvious improvement, but if you can reach the limit of physical strength as soon as possible, it is of course a good thing, so you can invest more time in other things.
Although the speed of endurance improvement is getting slower and slower after reaching the A-level, it is good to feel the progress. If you only have the physical strength to maintain your performance for 25 or 6 minutes in a game, and can only play for 33 or 34 minutes in a game, that's miserable, and you basically have no chance to become a real superstar.
With the Nash training method, you can feel the improvement after practicing for a period of time, and the technical breakthrough can also be intuitively demonstrated from the system comprehensive ability evaluation... Therefore, although Sun Ce is tired, day, but I feel more motivated!
The sleeping Sun Ce had a rare dream. One day, he could beat the Raptors by himself without cheating...

In the middle of the season, some things cannot be avoided by an easy schedule or a good record.
For example, the mood of slackness is not that there is no enthusiasm for the game, but that too many games have been played, and the body has accumulated a lot of fatigue, and the mind is even more tired.
No one can be as energetic as Sun Ce every day, and no one can make progress every day like Sun Ce, and play games with enthusiasm every day.
Others need a buffer period. During this buffer period, if most of the players of a team can keep their state from declining too much, they don’t need to explode. As long as they don’t decline too much, they can obviously compete with others. His team opened up the gap.
The level division of the team is divided during this period. By the All-Star Weekend, the players' slack mood is almost over, and with the rest of the All-Star Weekend, those who can find the state at the beginning of the season at this time can be considered truly capable, but there are also many people who have not improved much after this period.
Therefore, this period is also the time for many stars to counterattack. For example, Sun Ce gradually secured the team's sixth man position during this period last season. The team also cleared all the factors within the team that may affect Sun Ce during this period, and also helped Sun Ce trade back players such as Jordan, Battier, and Anthony Parker.
However, there are exceptions. Some players performed exceptionally well in the middle of the season. Kobe, James, and Pauls performed extremely well after entering January!
The middle of the season is also a carnival for players like Kobe and James! Paul is also in good physical condition at the moment and played very well in January.
Rose, who was squeezed by Thibodeau, would have been in great form during this period of time, but Sloan would not play like that. Rose is not a physically strong type, so Sloan was prepared to use him slowly. Since he has returned to the Bulls, the Bulls also gave him a face-saving annual salary of tens of millions. After Larry Brown was fired, he was the only head coach with an annual salary of tens of millions this season. After getting the money, he had to work hard.
However, in addition to Kobe, James, and Paul, there is another player who has performed outstandingly since January, Sun Ce!
The three brothers train hard, are in good form, have good physical strength, and have a paranoid desire to win for various reasons. Sun Ce can also go all out in every game and is full of energy!
…
On January 13, the Grizzlies ushered in the first opponent of the three consecutive home games, the Cavaliers.
Refusing to lose in a row is the slogan of the Grizzlies, but in addition to trying their best to defend, the Grizzlies did not play well on the offensive end, and the Cavaliers did not play well on offense and defense.
But just like when playing against the Raptors, both teams did not play very actively, only one person was very active.
Last year, Sun Ce felt the same emotions from his teammates. He knew it was inevitable, so he played hard!
The Raptors had a second-year player, DeRozan, who averaged 17 points per game. Seeing that Sun Ce, a big player in the same class, played hard, there was also a poor version of Nowitzki and Bargnani who averaged 20+ points per game.
As soon as James left the Cavaliers, the role players who looked good before seemed to be unable to play. Although the Cavaliers currently have 10 wins and 28 losses, they basically won the last few teams. They only won the Celtics and Lakers once against strong teams, and were beaten against other strong teams.
The Cavaliers worked hard to win, purely because they didn't want to give the Grizzlies too high a draft pick. Last year, they used this year's draft pick to trade Mayo, and Mayo, who averaged 10 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists per game this season, has begun to become a ball-like body.
Sun Ce certainly won't hold back when playing against Mayo. Seeing that Mayo had a B+ level ability evaluation in his rookie year, and became a + level in his third year, thinking of the unpleasantness in the past, Sun Ce played even harder.
As for Mayo, it seems that he no longer cares.
Sun Ce performed well today. He played for 32 minutes, made 9 of 17 shots, scored 24 points, 14 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 blocks. The Grizzlies defeated the Cavaliers 93-82 and refused to lose.
Winning is still winning on defense, defense is the foundation!
…
30 wins and 8 losses!
After defeating the Cavaliers, the Grizzlies increased their wins to 30 games!
In addition to this, Sun Ce's average score per game just increased to 20 points!
Sun Ce has been waiting for a long time, and his fans have been waiting for a long time. When the final whistle sounded, the Grizzlies won 30 games, and the big screen above the game played Sun Ce's average of 20 points, 123 rebounds, 66 assists, 37 blocks and 14 steals, the fans who had just recovered their throats after a while began to destroy their throats again.
Sun Ce was also very excited when he saw this data. Who the hell could have thought that he could play such data at the beginning of the season, 20+5+13+3!
It's already got it, and now it's more important to keep it! This is not easy!
