Eight Hundred and Twenty-Eight. The Little Bully Standing at the Top of the System Players

The worst was not the Lakers who were slaughtered by 24 points on the road, but Howard who won the best defensive player but not many people discussed it...

At 12:05 noon on May 5, 2011, the NBA officially announced that Magic star Dwight Howard became the new best defensive player, and it was also the third consecutive year that Howard won the best defensive player.

But when Howard won the award this time, it happened to be the second day of Sun Ce's big explosion. There were many more people discussing Sun Ce's incredible 10 three-pointers in a single game than discussing the best defensive player.

In a certain forum, the most popular post discussing Howard's three consecutive DPOYs was - "Is there any best defensive player who is worse than Howard?"

Even Sun Ce carrying a backpack to the gym for training was discussed more than Howard.

Another day of training has passed, and the Grizzlies now have a problem and don't know how to adjust.

The first game was won so "easily" because of Sun Ce's explosion. Of course, team defense is very important. The Grizzlies' training today is all about defense. What kind of changes are needed on the offensive end will not be known until the second game.

The Grizzlies limited the Lakers to only 66 points in three quarters. On the defensive end, the Grizzlies did a very successful job in the first game. There is such an outstanding group of teammates behind them, which gives Sun Ce the capital to waste every time he uses the star experience card.

After the afternoon training, Sun Ce returned home and saw Zu E and Wang Keying practicing lines. The two of them actually had a common language in this regard. Sun Ce remembered that Zu E was a child star, the cutest little Nezha.

Looking at the two girls who were practicing lines and had no time to deal with their brother and boyfriend who came back, Sun Ce couldn't help singing: "It's her, it's her, it's her, our friend, little Nezha..."

"Brother, you teased Juanjuan again!" Zu E grabbed a pillow and threw it at Sun Ce, and then he couldn't help laughing.

I wanted to continue practicing my lines for a while. I will be auditioning in two or three months. I got a few episodes of the script in advance. Wang Keying wanted to practice more, but it was a bit difficult to get into the role again after being interrupted by Sun Ce. Wang Keying had to give up and took the pillow that Sun Ce caught and asked, "How was the training today?"

"Not very good. We have to play the Lakers again tomorrow. We have to win. If we lose, we will lose the home advantage." Sun Ce dared to speak his mind when he returned home.

When communicating with teammates and accepting interviews in the team, Sun Ce always looked confident. Things like pressure can only be talked about when he returns home.

Seeing that Sun Ce seemed to be carrying a heavy pressure,

Wang Keying leaned close to Sun Ce's ear: "I believe my lord will definitely win..."

"Larina is still here!" Sun Ce was really freed from the pressure, but he was just startled and glanced around like a thief. Fortunately, Zu E was walking to the kitchen to see what delicious food the maid was going to make tonight, and did not see Wang Keying biting his ear.

Sun Ce was furious, picked up Wang Keying and ran upstairs...

...

Sure enough, when you are worried, you should find a way to enter the sage time. After Wang Keying had a full meal, Sun Ce felt that dinner was more delicious than before, and he didn't have so many worries.

What can you do about winning or losing?

Just during dinner, the old Big Three in the live TV screen were killed by the new Big Three, 102 to 85, and the new Big Three won the Celtics at home and got off to a good start.

Just like the Grizzlies were not optimistic about defeating the Lakers, the new Big Three were not optimistic either. The media and fans hoped that the old Big Three could continue to suppress James.

Unfortunately, O'Neal and O'Neal were reimbursed one after another, and the two centers could only sit on the sidelines in suits and try to kill their opponents with their eyes, and the live TV camera kept switching to the two of them.

James made 12 of 28 shots, 2 of 6 three-pointers, and 9 of 14 free throws. He scored 35 points and grabbed 15 rebounds from Garnett and Kostic. Bosh also had 20 points and 12 rebounds.

Without Perkins, Garnett couldn't support this defensive system. Sun Ce saw the result of the game and the two O'Neals on the sidelines with gloomy faces. He felt that Ainge's trade of Perkins for Jeff Green was one of the worst trades in recent years.

Jeff Green couldn't defend against either James or Wade at all. There was no real meat shield behind Garnett, and the power of assist defense was greatly reduced.

Sun Ce made a comparison. Garnett was affected the same way as he was without Gasol and Jordan without Perkins and the two O'Neals.

The main reason was that Garnett was old. He was born in mid-May 1976 and will be 35 in about 10 days. He also suffered a serious injury in 2009, and his athletic ability is no longer as good as before.

However, after the first two match days of the second round, Sun Ce discovered something interesting. The Lakers and Celtics, two giants, were both beaten badly in the second round of away games!

After finishing his meal, Sun Ce looked at Wang Keying's pitiful appearance and seemed to be unable to bear it. He wanted to complain: Who asked for it first? It's like this every time.

Fortunately, it has entered the sage time. Sun Ce did not continue to torment his little sister girlfriend. After practicing Nash training method for two hours in the gym, he took a shower and hugged Wang Keying who was sleeping to read the news.

The interesting things Sun Ce found were also discussed on the Internet - the Lakers and Celtics, the two teams with the most championships in NBA history, both suffered a miserable defeat. Does it mean the end of an era?

Sun Ce likes this topic very much, but it is still difficult to bring the other party down!

Fortunately, now that his thoughts are clear, Sun Ce took out the "Basic Tactics Encyclopedia" on the bedside table that no one wants even if he gives it away and looks like it was bought at a street stall and flipped through it.

"Because the host carried Kevin Durant's backpack in public, it caused a small-scale discussion among fans, and the effect was triggered. The host entered a focused learning mode, and the memory and comprehension abilities of reading books were slightly enhanced."

It turned out to be related to the attention it attracted!

"It seems that to fully activate the function of this backpack, do we really have to steal Durant's nickname of "Bookbag Du"? What should I be called? Bookbag Sun? Bookbag Ce? None of them sound good!"

Sun Ce complained and didn't care. He would just carry it when he had nothing to do in the future. In the United States, it might even be able to block bullets.

Flipping through the "Basic Tactics Encyclopedia", Sun Ce looked for tactical content related to triangle offense and zone defense, and read it very attentively. It was not until one o'clock in the middle of the night when Wang Keying got up to go to the bathroom that he found that Sun Ce was still working hard on tactics and was not allowed to stay up late. Sun Ce was dragged to sleep.

After trying the backpack for the first time, Sun Ce could not feel any changes. If he had to say something, he was more engaged!

"Maybe it's because it's easier to understand the knowledge points, so I'm more engaged in it?" Sun Ce didn't care so much, and fell asleep with his girlfriend in his arms. It's a good thing if it works...

...

...

The second home game of the Grizzlies and Lakers series has arrived!

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Sun Ce arrived at the FedEx Center and was immediately ignited by the hot atmosphere of the fans outside the home stadium.

Goal, 2-0!

After the first game, Sun Ce found that the starting point of this series had changed, from "challenging the quasi-dynasty of two consecutive championships" to a key series of "whether it can establish the belief of a real strong team"!

When the pursuit of winning or not has changed from a "challenge" that is not very related to the team itself to establishing the belief of a strong team, Sun Ce feels completely different about this change.

...

On the other side, the Lakers felt the enthusiasm of the opponent's home fans. Compared with the day before yesterday, there was less "fierce on the outside" and more confidence! The first big win brought confidence to the fans of the Grizzlies. They felt that their team had finally transitioned from a regular season powerhouse to a real playoff powerhouse!

Veterans like Kobe have experienced everything. He knows that the Grizzlies have started to gain momentum, and he is under pressure.

We have to take away a home advantage!

Otherwise, even if they win two games in a row at home, it will be difficult to play the decisive battle here.

Thinking of the fact that he scored 31 points in three quarters with 12 of 24 shots the night before, and the team was actually 21 points behind in three quarters, Kobe still felt like he was dreaming. The loss was too tragic. If the opponent was strong overall, like the Celtics, he would not think it was a big deal. The key is that he was beaten by a second-year player on the other side, and it was the playoffs!

However, Kobe felt very excited to play against such a young guy, and he was not frustrated at all that the opponent scored 54 points on his head.

Just like when his Lakers were 0-3 behind the Mavericks in the original time and space, he could still smile and say "I believe we can turn the tables", he never lacks confidence.

There is one thing that makes Kobe unable to hate Sun Ce - nickname Kobe's successor.

In the past, it was Jordan's successor, and he Kobe finally has an MVP-level successor!

Putting these things aside, Kobe feels that he must win the game tonight. The topic of "the end of the season in the old era" is becoming more and more popular on the Internet. Although he knows that some things cannot be stopped, such as the change of times, he does not want to be a stepping stone for Sun Ce to "open a new chapter"!

Kobe still has confidence, just like Sun Ce's confidence - he has a group of outstanding teammates.

…

…

The Grizzlies and the Lakers are focusing on preparing for the game, and both vow to win tonight's game.

In San Antonio, the game day between the Spurs and the Mavericks has also arrived. Both teams won the series in six games in the first round. It is very subtle that people are optimistic that the Spurs can win.

Who told the Mavericks to fail in the playoffs every year? For example, in the last two games of the first round, Nowitzki played so well, but not many people paid attention to it. The fourth game, in which Nowitzki played poorly and caused the Mavericks to collapse, was mentioned repeatedly.

The Bulls and the 76ers also have a game tonight, and another match between Rose and Evans also caused heated discussions.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, after checking the news for a while, Sun Ce began to warm up and make final preparations for the game that started at 5:30 tonight.

Tonight, there is no live broadcast of the court TV station, but Guangdong Sports and a certain wave network have live broadcasts.

This is the second time that Yao Ming has played in the second round in his career, and the domestic attention is higher than Sun Ce, who just broke the record for three-pointers in a single game in the playoffs.

Sun Ce doesn't care about this. This is what Yao Ming deserves. It is said that Yao Ming should not play those inexplicable games in Asia, but after becoming an NBA player and playing in a world championship on behalf of the national team, Sun Ce learned that the reason why Yao Ming's reputation is so high is because of his contributions to the national team in these aspects.

Without Yao Ming, who knows what Chinese basketball is.

Of course, Sun Ce also hopes that one day he can surpass Yao Ming's status in the hearts of domestic fans and become the unique face of Chinese basketball.

This requires one to work hard, and envy and expectation are useless.

…

At 5:10 in the evening, the players of the two teams entered the court.

After entering the stadium, the head coaches of both teams led their players to make the final pre-match arrangements. At 5:25, Sun Ce came to the technical station to apply magnesium powder.

Yesterday, I used the Kobe card, which had the skill "Peter Pan's Stamina Pool" that was so buggy that it was not enough to describe its bug, so I saved the stamina potion.

There is also the James Cavaliers version of the star experience card, which should be very useful. Sun Ce is ready to continue to fight tonight!

Keep the home advantage, and at least in the home court, the team will have stronger confidence.

However, in the past ten minutes, Sun Ce has always had a doubt in his heart... How to be as focused as Kobe?

After using Kobe's star experience card twice in different periods, Sun Ce also has his own way of adjusting his game mood, which is what he got from Kobe's star experience card.

Just find a reason to fight for yourself!

Treating opponents as enemies and even teammates as enemies gives you extra motivation to work harder and focus more.

But thinking of Kobe's mentality of even comparing his teammates to see who performs better... Sun Ce really can't learn it! This kind of extreme personality is too difficult to learn, and even incomprehensible.

But hate the opponent? Sun Ce really has nothing to hate about Kobe. In terms of basketball, he is the greatest player in the new century...

But he still has to find a reason to hate him, so that he can be more motivated, otherwise Kobe's card will be wasted?

Sun Ce racked his brains to think, and finally thought of an aspect of jealousy-this guy has two daughters! It seems that there will be a car of daughters in the future! Although he, Sun, wants to have a son to play with, he wants to have a bunch of daughters to pamper!

Sun Ce stood in front of the technical table for 3 minutes. Kobe came to the technical table to wipe the magnesium powder. He was curious why Sun Ce stood there motionless, but there were too many strange things about Sun Ce. The fans at the scene didn't think there was anything strange, and Kobe didn't ask.

Just when Kobe finished wiping the magnesium powder and was ready to go on the court, he suddenly saw Sun Ce turned his head and stared at him fiercely, saying: "You are a lucky daughter control! It's amazing to have so many daughters!"

"???" Kobe looked at Sun Ce who turned around and went on the court, and he was puzzled! What happened?

Why did he say this suddenly? Let’s not talk about how confused Kobe was when Sun Ce suddenly said this. Besides being confused, he also felt wronged. Did he want to have so many daughters? He wanted sons!

…

The starting lineup of the Grizzlies remained unchanged, still Sun Ce, Tony Allen, Morrow, Randolph, and Gasol.

The same was true for the Lakers, with Fisher, Kobe, Artest, Gasol, and Bynum in the starting lineup.

Bynum and Sun Ce came to the center circle for a jump ball.

Hearing the fans shouting "Lord" or "General", Bynum took a deep breath and prepared for the jump ball, not wanting to repeat the mistake of the night before!

At 5:30 in the evening, the referee blew the whistle to start the game and threw the ball into the air. Bynum was ready this time and didn't dare to be careless at all. When the ball reached the top, it bounced with all its strength...

"Huh?"

Bynum pushed the ball to the back, and when he landed, he saw Sun Ce symbolically jump, and then turned around to retreat.

Sun Ce gave up the jump ball so decisively that he almost sprained everyone's waist on the court, especially Bynum.

His teammates were also fooled by Sun Ce. Seeing Sun Ce's confident look when he walked to the center circle, Morrow and Randolph were ready for a fast break.

Fortunately, they had long been accustomed to Sun Ce. His teammates resisted the urge to beat this guy and quickly retreated to their positions.

The Lakers also felt how much Sun Ce deserved to be beaten. Seeing Sun Ce's look, they were all ready to retreat!

After Fisher advanced to the frontcourt, Kobe resisted the urge to start the game. He regretted his idea of ​​"not hating" Sun Ce and really wanted to beat this guy to death.

Gasol had a good mentality. After receiving the pass from Fisher in the high position, he directed his teammates to start the triangle offense.

The best period of the Lakers' offensive performance in the last game was when they played the triangle offense to create singles opportunities. They had Kobe and Bynum, and the success rate of singles was quite high.

However, Bynum was very impatient in the first ball. He wanted to vent the frustration of hitting cotton with a punch during the jump ball. He forced a shot without getting any shooting space, but was completely interfered by Gasol and hit the rim!

Because Bynum shot too quickly, Sun Ce, who had not had time to make up for the defense, grabbed the defensive rebound.

The Lakers retreated quickly because there was no pressure on the defense. The Lakers focused on retreating and did a very good job.

Sun Ce was not in a hurry and advanced at a normal speed. Bynum was so easily stimulated that it was within Sun Ce's expectations. He showed a confident look at the opening jump ball just for the first round of defense.

However, just after advancing to the three-point line, before he could direct his teammates to stand, Fisher and Kobe double-teamed him! Sun Ce quickly passed the ball to Gasol who had just entered the three-point line. Although Tony Allen had no offensive awareness, he was not stupid. He immediately cut into the inside line, asking Artest, who was defending Morrow on the right side of the three-second zone, to quickly retreat. Gasol passed the ball to Morrow, who received the ball and shot a three-pointer from the right sideline before Kobe could defend... It went in!

Sun Ce still didn't react when he retreated. What was the opponent's defense?

If Kobe knew what Sun Ce was thinking, he would probably jump up and slap him in the face - what's the point? Don't you know how scary you were in the last game?

Unlimited double-teaming in advance, reducing Sun Ce's shots, giving him confrontation, and leaving Sun Ce no chance to find the feeling of shooting. This is the way Zen Master thought of to deal with Sun Ce.

Very extreme, but given the encounter in the first game, they had to be extreme.

They would rather let Sun Ce's teammates shoot first, even if they made the shot, they would admit it! But looking back, what is more important to them is offense. If the Lakers want to complete the overall strategy, offense is very important.

Bynum was very impatient in the first attack, and was scolded by Kobe when he returned. This round was played very well. When Gasol blocked the line very well and Sun Ce had a tendency to double-team, Bynum made a fake move of turning left and walking to the baseline. When Sun Ce came back to make up for the defense, he turned around and stepped back to jump shot!

Bynum's low-post footsteps and soft touch... This talent is visible to the naked eye, and the close-range jump shot hit!

Although Sun Ce and his teammates didn't understand what the other side was thinking, they had never thought of such extreme defense, but seeing how hard they played in the second round, they also knew that the other side was ready to make trouble, and naturally didn't want the other side to succeed!

Sun Ce looked at the Cavaliers Zhanka in the prop space and felt that he might have to use this last super-powerful star experience card tonight. He was a little reluctant, but he was ready to use it.

But an unexpected situation occurred. When the Grizzlies attacked, Sun Ce was still double-teamed in advance. Sun Ce passed the ball directly to Morrow this time. Morrow received the pass from Sun Ce and shot directly at Artest... Morrow, who shot with confidence, hit another three-pointer!

Morrow's two consecutive three-pointers, not to mention that the opponent was a little stunned by the shot, even Sun Ce did not expect that Morrow would start so accurately and so recklessly. Artest rushed to defend like a bull, and Morrow threw it without fear!

Sun Ce always puts pressure on himself when the team needs players to stand up, but he forgets that his strongest point is not cheating. He cheated more than 10 times in a season. His strongest point is his role as a team player who "stands at the top of the system"!

Morrow stood up this time, using the gaps obtained by Sun Ce's extreme defense to score two three-pointers in a row!
