Seven Hundred and Sixty-Four. Best of the Week
"Your dad is angry!"
The morning after playing the Hawks, Sun Ce rarely slept in. He will leave Memphis for Boston today and play the Celtics and Pistons in back-to-back away games tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
Just when Sun Ce was half asleep, he heard an exclamation from the bedside.
"Your dad is so angry," Sun Ce pulled the startled man down on the bed and slapped him on the butt...
"Ouch...brother! What are you doing!"
"Eh?"
It feels wrong!
Sun Ce opened his eyes and saw an ancestral goose staring at him, and he woke up instantly.
"Brother! You actually hit Juanjuan!" Zu Ge muttered with his eyes wide open and his mouth bulging.
"Sorry, sorry, I hit the wrong person." Sun Ce quickly sat up, picked up Zu Ge and put it on the floor.
"Hit the wrong person?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm sorry, who told you to wake me up so early in the morning."
"That's right, brother was so tired from playing the game last night. I'll forgive you this time, but I'll get angry if I hit Juanjuanjuanjuan again." Zu'e's face bulged again.
"Okay, okay," Sun Ce shook his head, "By the way, what did you say made my dad angry?"
"Oh! Yes, brother, come and watch, uncle is on TV!" Zu Ge grabbed Sun Ce and ran to the living room.
"Juanjuan, please slow down..." Fortunately, after finishing his work last night, Sun Ce took a shower and changed into pajamas to sleep. He was pulled out by Zu Ge in his bare feet.
Coming to the living room, Sun Ce saw his mother, Wang Keying, and his father gathering around the computer to read news.
Sun Ce went up to take a look. The multi-angle footage of his father at last night's game appeared on the official website of Sports Illustrated!
Sun Ce and his father, who were eating pancakes, also came to the computer at this time. Looking at himself on the computer screen, his eyes widened. Although he could not understand English, he knew that it was a news website. He did not expect that he had I went to watch a game late at night and it actually made the news!
"I'm in Japan!"
The father and son said the same thing...
…
Today is March 9, 2011, the Grizzlies’ offseason, and a set of photos has gone viral in North America and Asia.
A new Internet celebrity with the aliases "Uncle Sharp" and "Tai Shang Ba Wang" made his debut.
This internet celebrity is Sun Ce’s father…
A rumor came out of nowhere and it was made up that Sun Ce's father used to be a great basketball player, but he didn't have the opportunity to display his talents, so Sun Ce had such basketball talent.
It's okay here in the United States. Most of them are speculations. What fans are interested in is Sun Ce's father's burly figure and sharp temperament.
But in domestic forums, it has almost become a fantasy story. The photos of Sun Ce and his father beside the stadium were actually photoshopped and posted online, with a description next to them: the cold and sharp eyes looking at the stadium. , seems to be expressing disdain for the young guys on the court; those strong arms seem to show the power of the past; the sparse stubble and vicissitudes of temperament seem to be feeling the cruelty of the years...
All in all, everyone is saying that Sun Ce's father used to be a very good basketball player, but he didn't have the opportunity to display his talent in that era, so he trained his son to complete his unfinished dream.
Sun Ce looked at the various discussions in domestic forums. If he hadn't known that his father had never touched basketball before he entered the NBA and became a world-class player, he would have almost believed those realistic stories!
It is true that Sun Ce’s father’s image is too much like that of a golf ball villain. Because Sun Ce’s father likes to work on the front line of the store, he will go to the kitchen to do odd jobs, and will also act as a porter when buying dishes... He is in great shape, 190 He is just over 10 centimeters tall and weighs over 100 kilograms. Although his body fat rate is not low, it is not high either. From a fitness perspective, he has a beautiful silhouette and is very strong.
Of course, if these photos of Sun Ce's father had appeared at the construction site, the evaluation would be different. Sun Ce estimates that the story would be about a big boss with blood-stained hands washing his hands in a golden basin and coming to the construction site to spend ordinary days...
Mainly because of the background,
We happened to be at the NBA scene, and coincidentally, Sun Ce’s father was Sun Ce’s father.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, Sun Ce and his teammates took the team's chartered flight to the airport. After he reunited with his teammates, he had been asked countless times by his teammates about his father's "story". Sun Ce heard that these people were worse than him. "Knowing the story of his father's past", I feel that the chatty sister is right...his father is famous!
Sun Ce didn't know what to say to these teammates now, but his father took away the headlines!
In the Eagles game last night, in the defensive battle, Sun Ce made 5 of 13, and scored 16+11+5+5 in a single game. His performance was very good. Randolph scored 20 points and 8 rebounds in a single game. 4 offensive rebounds are very crucial, Yi Jianlian's two big blocks, Jordan and Gasol's basket scoring at critical moments, Tony Allen's defense of Joe Johnson's key ball are all important, and the Grizzlies won The ball is gone.
However, in the post-match news, which did not have live broadcast of the game, the picture was of Sun Ce's father.
After arriving at the hotel in Boston at noon, Sun Ce went to the room and watched the latest Player of the Week awards announced by the NBA.
In the West, the Grizzlies, which had a complete victory last week, has a player who won the new weekly award. This person is Sun Ce. Sun Ce had a 45+ triple-double last week and also performed well against the Rockets and Hawks. Logically speaking, It deserves to be the best of the week.
In the East, Pierce, who averaged 21 points, 9 rebounds and 3 assists per game in the past week and led the Celtics to three consecutive victories, won the new Eastern Conference Best of the Week.
This is Sun Ce's seventh Best of the Week this season, tying James' historical record of seven Best of the Week in a single season set by James in the 2008-09 season!
Averaging 20.4 points, 12.6 rebounds, 6.6 assists and 3.6 blocks per game, the team's record is second in the league. Sun Ce is already in a very good situation in the regular season MVP competition. It is just because of Sun Ce's identity as a second-year player and the characteristics of a system player that he He may be underestimated by the media, announcers, and experts who have voting rights in the MVP competition.
Now that Sun Ce has won his seventh Player of the Week award, tying the historical record set by James, he will definitely get extra boost in the MVP voting.
There are still five weeks left in this year's regular season, and Sun Ce has every chance to break the historical record for most weekly games in a single season!
but! Sun Ce's 7 Best of the Week awards did not cause too much trouble. His seventh Best of the Week award seemed to attract less attention than his cheap dad!
Moreover, when Sun Ce’s balls hurt, the system prompts came!
"Because the host has tied the NBA's single-season best-of-the-week record, the host is expected to make history and write a great record in his career with the Grizzlies. The fifth stage of the S-level event on the road to the Bear King: King of the Week triggers ”
"King of the Week: The host needs to break the historical record of 7 Best of the Week in a single season held by LeBron James in the 2008-2009 season.
Event reward: LeBron James 2008-2009 version of the star experience card.
Note: There is no time limit for the events in this stage. If completed this season, the highest rating will be reached. If not completed, it will be carried over to the next season. If this season is not completed, there will be no star experience card rewards next season. "
This event has a high probability of being completed. There are only 5 weeks left in the season. Sun Ce has never failed to win the Player of the Week for 5 consecutive weeks this season.
And although the fact that he has won the Best of the Week seven times has been overshadowed at present, as time goes by, it will definitely become a very eye-catching thing, especially if he breaks the record, he will definitely steal the show.
But now Sun Ce is desperate! Being upstaged by his father, Sun Ce had no time to reason!
The key is that Sun Ce doesn't even know where to go to refute the rumors! His dad has really become an internet celebrity!
But... Sun Ce actually found it quite interesting when he thought about his father's stunned look when he saw the news in the morning.
"Do you want to make dad's legend true?"
Sun Ce's heart began to agitate...
…
…
"I don't know what my father did before. He has been a hot pot restaurant owner since I was a child, and he is almost 30 years old. How do I know what happened in the past? I only remember that my father was the boss of my elementary school, junior high school, and high school. I have never outrun him when chasing him. Otherwise, why would I go to the United States to study? I can't outrun him! I don't believe that he can still chase me to the United States and beat me.
Genetic talent? Maybe, my parents are both very tall, so I have grown a little bit taller, maybe a little over 1.9 meters... What is my specific height? Doesn’t the NBA official have information? Just go and see it and you’ll know..."
On March 10, before the first back-to-back away game against the Celtics, Sun Ce accepted a pre-match interview. As he expected, the media asked questions about his father.
Especially tonight's exclusive interview with Beijing Sports Channel, which is broadcasting the game domestically. The reporter asked about this matter in detail.
Sun Ce gave similar answers in all interviews. He did not admit the incident, but he also did not deny it. He just said that he did not know.
In the eyes of reporters, not denying is admitting!
Today, it was rare for Sun Ce to accept a good interview and answer the question without ending the topic. Sun Ce felt so good when he saw the reporters leaving with satisfied expressions.
Those rumors seem to be becoming more and more true. Netizens like to make up stories, and the more they make up, the fewer loopholes they have.
The main reason is that Sun Ce's father really looks like that... Sun Ce gave him a push and continued to push his father towards the road of Internet celebrity!
The teammates were also very interested in this matter, but Sun Ce just said he didn't know, and the teammates had no choice but to continue preparing for tonight's game.
However, things are unpredictable, and people have their fortunes. Randolph did not participate in the team meeting and tactical training this morning. It doesn't matter. He only plays the Celtics twice a year, and both are this month. , I played today and will play another game at the end of the month. There are many opportunities to compete.
As for tactical matters, at this stage of the season, the main emphasis is on details, and the general tactics will not change because of a team from another division.
But when it was time to warm up, Randolph still didn't come, and the phone couldn't be connected. I don't know if the phone was out of battery or something. Sun Ce and others felt something was wrong.
At 4:30 in the afternoon, the pre-match warm-up had been going on for more than half an hour, and coach Hollins came to the visiting team's training ground with a heavy expression on his face.
Coach Hollins clapped his hands, attracted the attention of the players and said: "Otspers, get ready to start tonight. Zach has a cold, 38 degrees, and cannot play tonight's game. You must pay attention to your health and come to Boston. Wear more clothes when playing in a place like this. Don't be like Zach, showing off your muscles to women in the corridor in the middle of the night. What's the point of showing off your fat body. "
At the end, Coach Hollins also complained about Randolph behind his back.
After hearing what Coach Hollins said, Sun Ce and others breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Randolph had gone out to cause trouble.
Don't blame Sun Ce and his teammates for such speculation, Randolph has a bad past!
Fortunately, it was just a cold.
Boston in March is still cold. Today's daytime temperature is only 2 to 11 degrees, and the coldest at night may be below zero. If you are not careful, you may really catch a cold. For NBA players, these big men, colds are not a minor disease. They are already full of hidden injuries, and it is really possible that a chain reaction will be triggered by a cold.
And it is said to be a cold, 38 degrees, in a low fever state. Sun Ce asked Coach Hollins for the specific situation and learned that Randolph went to the hospital for treatment when he got up this morning, but his body temperature had not dropped when he warmed up, so it was confirmed at this time that Randolph could not play.
Randolph is fine, and he also learned the latest black material about Randolph from Coach Hollins. There will be something to tease Randolph in the future. Sun Ce breathed a sigh of relief, but... tonight's game is in trouble!
…
At 5:58 in the evening, Sun Ce, Conley, Battier, Yi Jianlian, and Gasol started against the Celtics.
On the Celtics side, Rondo, Ray Allen, Pierce, Garnett, and Kostic started.
After the All-Star Weekend, the Celtics suffered a four-game losing streak and fell to fourth in the Eastern Conference. Fortunately, the recent three-game winning streak stabilized the situation.
Celtics head coach Rivers was almost furious before and after the All-Star Weekend, and their inside players suffered consecutive injuries!
Originally, seeing that the double O'Neal center rotation played very well in the first half of the season, Rivers felt that there was a chance to reach the finals again this year.
O'Neal played 37 games before February, averaging 9.4 points, 5 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 20 minutes per game, and performed very well; O'Neal Jr. averaged 6.9 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 18 minutes per game. The outstanding performance of the two made Perkins, their starting center last season, a decoration.
Moreover, the double O'Neal combination was very useful when playing against the Heat. The Celtics regarded the Heat as the final opponent in the East and naturally wanted to correct this combination.
So, when the Thunder sold Jeff Green, Danny Ainge decisively sent Perkins Garnett Robinson to trade back Jeff Green.
But who would have thought that O'Neal left the game with an ankle injury in early February, and was eventually diagnosed with a torn Achilles tendon, confirming that he would be out for the season.
This made the Celtics lose the opportunity to compete for the first place in the East before the All-Star Weekend to the Bulls, and also made them lose 4 games in a row after the All-Star Weekend.
Fortunately, when trading back Jeff Green, Ainge also took back Kostic, who the Thunder didn't want. After a month of adjustment, the Celtics gradually got back on track in March and won all the past three games.
Now the Celtics are on a winning streak. When they meet the Grizzlies, who are also on a winning streak, it was originally a two-strong duel, but before the game, the Celtics received a huge benefit. Randolph couldn't play, which made the Celtics' front line advantage more obvious.
Originally, there were Pierce, Garnett, Jeff Green, and Glen Davis. Their front line was stronger than the Grizzlies. Now that the Grizzlies' strongest front line couldn't play, the advantage naturally became greater.
At six o'clock, after the game started, the Celtics quickly took the lead.
Although Sun Ce once overtook by 1 point in the middle of the first quarter with two consecutive mid-range shots, the Celtics still led by 4 points with 26 to 22 at the end of the first quarter and entered the intermission.
Today, Sun Ce had physical potions to use, and he played very hard. He made 3 of 7 shots in the first quarter, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 8 points, 3 rebounds, and 2 assists, but the Celtics are still very strong!
Although they no longer have the terrible strength of the strongest team in the East last season, O'Neal's injury has a huge impact on them, but they are still the top two teams in the East.
The stronger his own strength and the stronger his team's strength, the more Sun Ce can feel Garnett's strength. The Celtics' defense with Garnett as the core of the system is highly targeted and effective. When the Celtics learned that Sun Ce's shooting felt ordinary today, they relaxed their defense against him a little and blocked the role players. Randolph was not there tonight, and the Grizzlies had no strong points in singles inside. The Celtics chose to loosen their defense on Sun Ce.
Especially when Sun Ce was outside the three-point line, the Celtics directly opened the zone defense, blocked other people, and left Sun Ce outside the three-point line.
When the team fell further and further behind, Sun Ce threw 5 three-pointers in a single quarter, and he actually made two of them.
But the Celtics did not waver and continued to maintain defensive stability.
Throughout the game, Sun Ce played 44 minutes, 11 of 26 shots, 6 of 9 free throws, and made two three-pointers. He threw seven three-pointers outside the three-point line. After missing two consecutive three-pointers in the third quarter, Sun Ce could only rush in with the ball, falling on the floor again and again, causing several fouls, but still unable to catch up with the score difference.
In the end, Sun Ce scored 30 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists in 26 shots. The second highest scorer of the Grizzlies was Gasol, with 18 points and 8 rebounds, and Jordan scored 14 points. No one else on the Grizzlies scored in double digits.
On the Celtics side, Rondo scored 4 points, 9 rebounds and 12 assists, Garnett scored 14 points and 8 rebounds, Pierce scored 19 points, Ray Allen scored 23 points, Jeff Green scored 22 points...
The Grizzlies lost to the Celtics 92-103, and their six-game winning streak was ended.
In the direct confrontation between the freshly-minted Eastern and Western Conference Players of the Week, Sun Ce won the data, but Pierce took the game away.
…
After losing to the Celtics, the Grizzlies' record became 49 wins and 12 losses, becoming the second 50-win team this season and was forced to postpone.
Sun Ce returned to the hotel and went to the gym to train hard. He was exhausted before returning to the room to take a bath. He asked the waiter to scrub the bathtub again and again, and soaked in the bathtub. The unhappiness of losing tonight finally eased.
Tonight, Sun Ce's touch was not explosive, but it was not bad, because he could try his best in every attack. He could use physical potions during the halftime break. He scored 9 points in the first five minutes of the fourth quarter, helping the team narrow the gap to 4 points, but still failed to successfully turn the game around. He didn't get a single point in the next three minutes.
Apart from three-pointers, Sun Ce's hit rate of 9 out of 19 shots was very good, exceeding 45%, and he also got 9 free throws.
But the Celtics are worthy of being the Eastern Conference Finals team in Sun Ce's impression. Although they are not as strong as they were in the past three years, they are still one of the best teams in the East.
Sun Ce felt the importance of superstars to the team. Without Randolph, who is S-level, the overall strength of their Grizzlies team plummeted.
Randolph is too important. Although Randolph is fat this season, he has no injuries. He only rested during his rotation before. This is the first time Sun Ce has experienced Randolph's injury this season.
This makes Sun Ce understand the importance of teammates more, but he knows that injuries are inevitable. He can only protect himself and avoid his injuries affecting the team.
At present, the Grizzlies have lost 12 games, and the Spurs have also lost 9 games. The gap between the two teams is still 3 wins. There are 21 games left. There is definitely a chance, but...
There are still fierce pursuits from the Lakers and Mavericks behind!
The MVP seems to be in sight, but there is no way to reach out and get it. This feeling of desire but not being able to get it immediately makes Sun Ce feel tortured and full of expectations!
