Eight Hundred and Eighty-One. Make Kobe or Destroy Paul

The seven-game winning streak was ended by the Jazz, exposing many problems of the team.

The team currently has 7 wins and 1 loss, ranking first in the West, two wins ahead of the second-placed Spurs with 5 wins and 3 losses.

Even they themselves find this incredible, and they have been winning all the time, although they have seen some problems, but they have not exposed them so comprehensively. Winning can cover up many things, such as the problems exposed in the last game against the Timberwolves. Although they were exposed, the players did not take them so seriously, including Sun Ce himself.

It was not until they met the Jazz, a real Western playoff-level team, and lost the game with the same problems that they really took it seriously.

But for Sun Ce and others, it was a relief. In such a season, winning streak still has a lot of pressure.

After the game, the Grizzlies coaching staff held a simple tactical meeting in the locker room, and everyone calmly discussed the problems that occurred in the past two games.

Carelessness, insufficient adjustment when the touch is not good, becoming dependent on the touch, relying too much on the performance of Sun Ce, Randolph, and Nash, while others did not use their abilities and brains more...

Putting aside the problems at the tactical level, these are the most basic things.

In fact, the coaching staff also said this after the last game against the Timberwolves, but no one listened at that time.

Now that we lost the game, when we talked about this, everyone listened to it all of a sudden.

Those who play in the NBA, even veterans who have played for more than ten years, are actually considered young people. Young people need to be spurred on, and they need to use failure as a lesson to spur them on.

Coach Hollins would rather have such a defeat occur at the beginning of the season, rather than in February or March. If they have been smoothly crushing the playoff teams and only exposed the problem in the middle of the season, it would really be a "false prosperity".

…

…

The Grizzlies' winning streak has ended, and the last undefeated team in the league is gone.

Currently, the Grizzlies are first in the West with 7 wins and 1 loss, while the Spurs and Lakers are both 5 wins and 3 losses. The Lakers were defeated by Duncan's tip-in, so the Spurs are ranked higher. The fourth is the Thunder in the Northwest Division, with 4 wins and 3 losses.

However, from the fourth to the ninth, they are all 4 wins and 3 losses, with no difference. The Thunder relied on defeating the Nuggets and the Jazz, two teams in the same division, to sit in fourth place.

The defending champion Mavericks are surprising, with a record of 3 wins and 5 losses, ranking 11th in the West.

But Sun Ce did not look down on the Mavericks after seeing their record. After chatting with Nash, he watched the Mavericks' live broadcast or video, and found that they were just as Nash expected, in order to help Nowitzki and Yao Ming regain their form, regardless of the record, and took their time.

Such an experienced and star-studded team does not care about a few wins at the beginning.

The day after playing against the Jazz, Sun Ce and his teammates finally ended their ice and snow journey and came to the warm West Coast. The last game of the five-game road trip was against the Lakers!

After arriving at the seaside hotel in Los Angeles, Sun Ce and Zu Ge stayed in a suite with a balcony. Sun Ce basked in the sun and read the Lakers' scout report.

Just as Sun Ce expected, without Bynum, the Lakers still look very strong.

Moreover, the addition of speed-type point guards Sessions and Brand has brought more vitality to the Lakers' outside line. Although Brand in the inside line has dropped sharply compared with last year, like other veterans who rely on their thighs, his performance of 7 points and 6 rebounds per game is good enough for the third inside line. DeAndre Jordan only has 10 points and 5 rebounds.

Not all third inside lines can play like Odom in the past few years, either averaging a double-double or 14+8+3. Odom's data is better than that of many teams' starting inside lines. With more ball possession and less distraction, he can be the core inside line of a team.

Moreover, Odom did not give up on himself and become fat because he was abandoned by the Lakers. He performed well in the new season. After playing as a starter, he averaged 11 points, 9 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game.

When Sun Ce was reading the Lakers news, he also saw the news that Odom and his wife Khloe Kardashian were caught on video by paparazzi having sex on the beach on a winter night... He did not give up on himself and degenerate,

and his wife did not leave him.

The Lakers seem to be a little weaker than in the past three years, but in those three years, the Lakers were the real championship team!

Sun Ce felt that if the Grizzlies or Mavericks were not there, the Lakers would have won the championship as long as they made it to the finals last year. Except for him and Nowitzki, who was like a god, no one in the Western Conference playoffs could stop the Lakers.

At present, with the twin towers + Kobe as the foundation, as long as the head coach is not D'Antoni, and does not let these veterans speed up and does not play Kobe out, the Lakers' record will not be too bad!

Sun Ce also complained when he saw the Lakers sign Mike Brown to replace the Zen Master during the lockout.

But the facts prove that Mike Brown did a very good job. In fact, even in the original time and space, Mike Brown was able to enter the playoffs as the third in the West after the team lost an important tactical core like Odom. Mike Brown's defensive adjustment contributed greatly.

The Lakers mainly use a positional defense style of play. Although they have averaged 98.5 points per game since the start of the season, setting a new low for the Lakers since the 05-06 season, they have only lost 93.5 points per game, which is currently lower than the Grizzlies' average points lost per game.

Of course, the Zen Master has been using Kobe for the past three years, which has also given Mike Brown the opportunity to use Kobe to death. Kobe's playing time this season has increased by 6 minutes compared to last season, and he ranks third in the scoring list.

But the Lakers have hope. Sun Ce saw that Paul, who had been injured for 9 months after surgery at the end of March, has started training with the team!

Zu E saw Sun Ce browsing Paul's news on the computer again, and put his head on Sun Ce's shoulder and asked: "Brother, who is better between you and Paul?"

"I am the MVP." Sun Ce's answer was very strong.

"Paul may go to Kobe to fight after hearing what you said." Zu E is smart. She certainly knows that Sun Ce is not as good as Paul in terms of personal ability now. ESPN wants to put the sign of "system player" on the player posters in the Grizzlies' stadium and on Sun Ce's photo.

But she just likes to listen to Sun Ce's bragging, because Sun Ce can make it come true.

"Brother, do you think Paul and Kobe can get along well?" Zu E is now also a basketball fan, and is very concerned about this question that fans want to know the answer to.

"I don't know. Either Paul made Kobe successful, or Kobe destroyed Paul." Sun Ce started with a strong black wave.

Just as he was about to make up a few more sentences about Kobe, Sun Ce's phone rang. What a coincidence, the real owner called!

"Vanessa is cooking. Come to my house for lunch in two hours. I have already notified Steve and Otspes. Bring your girlfriend and your sister...beep beep..."

As always, Kobe finished his story and hung up the phone directly, seeming very reluctant.

Zu Ge looked at Sun Ce's expression as if he had eaten a fly, and asked curiously, "Who is it?"

"Kobe, he invited us to lunch." Sun Ce said and looked at the time. It was 10:30, two hours later, and there was plenty of time.

"Are you going?" Zu Ge was not very excited this time. He had been to Kobe's house in the summer, and his curiosity about the home of the veteran superstar had been satisfied.

"Of course I have to go. It's a waste not to eat a free lunch." Sun Ce said without hesitation, "Juanjuan, you brought formal clothes, right? This guy dressed like he was going on a blind date when he invited us to dinner. We can't lose to him!"

"..."

...

Don't mention it, Zu Goose actually brought a little dress. I didn't think I would have the chance to use it, but I actually had the chance to wear it!

When they arrived at Kobe's house, they entered the villa under the guidance of the Filipino maid. The heating was on inside. Zu Goose took off her down jacket and handed it to the maid. Sun Ce looked at her... She looked like a beautiful little princess!

When Sun Ce came, Kobe didn't come to receive him. Instead, he pretended not to see her and continued to play cards with Nash, Paul, and Yi Jianlian.

"Larina, long time no see, you look beautiful again." Vanessa came up and hugged Zu Goose, then said to Sun Ce: "That old kid still remembers the loss to you last year. Don't worry about him... Wow, Lord, do you have a new girlfriend? Lily, long time no see."

In fact, when Sun Ce and his group came in, Vanessa had already seen them. It was just a courtesy of communication.

It was not Wang Keying who came with Sun Ce, but Lily Collins, who was on winter vacation and had no work recently and was bored, received a call from Wang Keying and came to be Sun Ce's female companion.

"No..."

Before Sun Ce finished speaking, Lily Collins went up and hugged Vanessa: "Vanessa, long time no see, the lord's girlfriend is not free, I just happened to be free, so I was asked to be a female companion."

Lily Collins felt that Sun Ce was a steel straight man, who seemed not so straight in the rumors, but became more and more straight after having a girlfriend. How could he say no directly at this time.

"Do you know each other?" Sun Ce didn't think too much and asked curiously.

"We have known each other for several years. In 2006, Lily was still a high school student, but she was already a columnist for the magazine "Los Angeles Time". Kobe and I have been interviewed by Lily."

"Columnist? Lily, aren't you an actress?"

"Lord, you invited Lily to be your female companion, don't you know her better?" Changing girlfriends is too normal for Vanessa, Sun Ce is still so young.

Even Kobe, who promised her to be together for life when she was 17, often went out to flirt with other girls.

"I will get to know her better." Sun Ce was a little embarrassed...

Like Vanessa, Kobe, Paul, Nash, and Yi Jianlian didn't find it strange to see Sun Ce change his female companion. Sun Ce's girlfriend has not been in Memphis since the start of the new season. She left after Christmas. If Sun Ce really didn't have a new girlfriend for a year or two without his girlfriend coming, they would find it strange.

Zu Goose knew that it was Wang Keying who gave Sun Ce a female companion, and they had seen her before. Although they felt it was strange, it was just like that. Although he was mentally mature, he was still a child.

Lily Collins thought other people's reactions were normal, but Sun Ce's reaction... Lily Collins couldn't help but raise her Crayon Shin-chan-style eyebrows.
