On the evening of the 16th, the Grizzlies defeated the Warriors 98-85 without a single blow. On the Warriors side, Curry was out of action, and the offense was greatly affected. Although Curry's attendance rate is not high this season, the last time the Warriors were able to upset the Grizzlies, Curry's 8 three-pointers in a single game contributed greatly. This is a player who averages 22 points per game. Any team that loses a player averaging 20+ points per game will be greatly affected. For example, the Grizzlies, without Randolph, will have a big drop in offensive strength. Moreover, Curry averaged 3.1 three-pointers per game in the 19 games he played, making him the sixth player in NBA history to average at least 3 three-pointers per game, and one of only three players this season who averaged more than 2.5 three-pointers per game, the other two being Morrow of the Celtics and Steve Novak of the Knicks. The reimbursement of such a player is a huge blow to any team. But tonight Sun Ce felt Leonard's defense, which was really good, although it was not comparable to Paul George. Paul George's defense was A-level, while Leonard's was only B+ level, which was a bit far behind. Paul George would have the strength of the best defensive team if he improved. But Leonard had made great progress compared to the last time they played. When they played last month, Leonard was only B-level defense. As the season progressed, Leonard gradually adapted to the rhythm of the NBA and had quasi-first-class defense. It was just that his defense was useless. Without Curry, Ellis and David Lee played very badly on the offensive end. Only Wright was not enough as a containment point. Leonard had defense but his offense was yet to be developed. ... Time passed quickly. On the 18th, the Grizzlies welcomed the last home game of their six-game home run, playing against the Nuggets at home. This was also the first game of the next 5 days and 4 games, also home and away back-to-back home games. From the 18th to the 22nd, the Grizzlies played the last four games before the All-Star Weekend, 5 days and 4 games of home and away. The Grizzlies and the Nuggets played very well in this game. There was a lot of tension, a gap, a chase, and a reversal... In regular time, the two teams tied at 110! Sun Ce missed the key shot and failed to trigger the effect of "Havlicek's Hand". Havlicek's Hand needs to make a shot when the score is tied, and then you can predict who the opponent will serve to, and you can clearly "see" the opponent's serving route. But if you don't make the shot, there's nothing you can do. Fortunately, Sun Ce, who took the physical potion in the second half, was in good physical condition in overtime, and fought hard with his teammates on defense. In the end, Sun Ce stole the ball from Lowry at a critical moment, counterattacked and passed the ball to Paul George for a three-pointer to overtake by two points, and relied on Sun Ce's single defense block on Lawson to lock in the victory. Sun Ce played 49 minutes in this game, 13 of 29 shots, 35 points, 10 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 blocks and 2 steals. Randolph played 41 minutes, 28 points and 11 rebounds. Jordan and Yi Jian scored 25 points and 13 rebounds. Paul George, Klay Thompson, Neal and Battier made 12 three-pointers, plus Nash's 5 points and 14 assists. In the end, relying on Sun Ce's steal and block, Paul George's key three-pointer, the Grizzlies defeated the Nuggets 118 to 116. This game was thrilling, and the atmosphere on the scene was so good. Originally, when the third quarter was over, 76 to 87 behind by 11 points, everyone thought that the score gap would be widened. Sun Ce also regretted using the physical potion instead of Rose's star experience card. In the third quarter, they did not score as well as the Nuggets. But at the beginning of the fourth quarter, Nash made 4 consecutive assists, Sun Ce made 1 three-pointer, Paul George and Klay Thompson made 3 three-pointers together, and the Grizzlies' lineup of one big and four small players scored 12 points in a row, narrowing the point difference to 4 points in one go, and played a 12 to 5 wave! There was another chance, and it was finally dragged to overtime. When the opponent was about to collapse, the Grizzlies relied on defense in overtime to win the game. When the final whistle sounded, even if Sun Ce took a shot of physical potion, he was exhausted. He played for 49 minutes! It was either running or defending! But it feels so good to win, especially when he missed the buzzer-beater in regular time,

It feels great to regain face in overtime with steals and blocks. Moreover, after defeating the Nuggets, the Grizzlies' record has improved to 25 wins and 6 losses in the first 10 games of this month, with 8 wins and 2 losses! They are 2.5 wins ahead of the second-placed Spurs in the West. The Spurs are currently 23 wins and 9 losses, and the Grizzlies have to lose 3 games less. However, when it came to the post-match interview, Sun Ce didn't want to pay attention to the post-match interview, but he had to participate. The other party was a reporter from the court TV station, an old friend. Before Coach Zhang asked a question, Sun Ce said, "Yes, yes, Coach Zhang, I know, the Knicks won again, they won six games in a row, so amazing..." Coach Zhang didn't feel embarrassed at all. No matter who he interviewed recently, the other party was like this, and Sun Ce was still good. Moreover, he really wanted to ask about the Knicks winning again at the beginning. Not only him, but since the Knicks won four games in a row, the entire NBA has been shrouded in a name - Lin Madness. Sun Ce was late to realize it. When they played the Jazz on February 13, the Knicks, who had won three consecutive games, became popular. On the 15th, they became very popular. But Sun Ce had a tight schedule and didn't pay attention to it. He didn't know that Lin Madness was coming until the afternoon of the 16th. Then, after defeating the Warriors back to back on the evening of the 16th, the first question Sun Ce was asked was not about his fifth triple-double of the season with 18 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists, but about Jeremy Lin. Sun Ce was fine at the time and praised Jeremy Lin. But yesterday, several TV stations sought exclusive interviews. Sun Ce accepted exclusive interviews with American Cable TV, and the Imperial Court TV. He felt that it was not a good thing before the interview. He suddenly had to be interviewed, even though he had already made appointments with major media for exclusive interviews on February 23. Sure enough, Sun Ce was asked three similar questions by three Daxing TV stations yesterday, all of which were about Jeremy Lin. Sun Ce finally understood why after Linsanity, those superstars and outside players targeted Jeremy Lin. It was not just him, Sun. Many stars, especially outside players, received similar treatment. Whether they won or lost, reporters would always say "Linsanity". James Dolan, the owner of the Knicks, is also the owner of American Cable, one of the three major TV stations in the United States... Sun Ce felt that the worst was the 2005 duo. The prelude to Linsanity was the Knicks' injury wave. Before playing against the Nets, they only had 7 players who could play. They also signed two 10-day short contracts from the Development League to make up a 9-man roster. But Jeremy Lin broke out, scored 30 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists, and helped the Knicks beat the Nets. Then on the 16th, the Knicks played against the Lakers. Kobe didn't ask who Jeremy Lin was, but he had asked who Sun Ce was before, and was beaten. He had experience. But Paul was very upset and sprayed a few words. Then, that night, Jeremy Lin scored 36 points and 11 assists... Paul was also beaten, and the Lakers lost to the Knicks 92-96. In addition to the game between the Knicks and the Raptors, which ended before the Grizzlies defeated the Nuggets tonight, Jeremy Lin averaged 28.3 points and 8 assists. After this wave of six consecutive victories, the Knicks, who had already been surpassed by the Bucks and dropped to eighth in the Eastern Conference with 13 wins and 13 losses, suddenly improved their record to 19 wins and 13 losses, surpassing the Celtics and Pacers, and came to fourth in the Eastern Conference. After complaining, Sun Ce continued: "Actually, I really want to play against Jeremy Lin now. His current performance is too good. I really hope to play against him like this. I hope to play against all the strongest opponents." This was said sincerely, and Coach Zhang also heard that Sun Ce was very sincere, which was quite unexpected. Sun Ce was willing to answer, and Coach Zhang asked: "I heard that it was Xiao Ba Wang that you suggested that Jeremy Lin go to the Knicks to find an opportunity. Is this true?" "Yes, last year he came to ask me if his playing style and strength could make him a foothold in the NBA. I have some understanding of his playing style, so I suggested that he go to play under D'Antoni." "Have you seen him play? I remember that he was not selected, and he only played in the summer league and the development league before going to the Knicks. Do you also know about his games? Have you been paying attention to him for a long time?" Coach Zhang asked in surprise. He didn't pay much attention to Jeremy Lin before Jeremy Lin played 11+4 at the end of last season. "Ah... No, I saw his performance at Harvard, I know he is very good, I grew up watching him play..." As he spoke, Sun Ce said it smoothly. "..." Coach Zhang was speechless, and he was crazy in his heart: Can you change your line? …………On the morning of February 19, the morning after the bloody battle with the Nuggets, Sun Ce went to Oklahoma City with his teammates. In the past 6 consecutive home games, with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss, it can be said that the performance is very good. He, Sun Ce, averaged 21.6 points, 14.3 rebounds, 7.6 assists, 3.5 blocks and 1.3 steals per game. Such a good performance, but the news and fans' discussions are all about Jeremy Lin, and everyone else has become transparent, which makes Sun Ce a little unhappy, just like other players. But if you have to say it, he, Sun Ce, was not affected too much, not as miserable as the two super point guards of the 2005 class, who were beaten head-on. In addition to being a little annoyed by the questions asked by reporters, Sun Ce still admires Jeremy Lin's performance in the last six games. Jeremy Lin and Stoudemire's fast break pick-and-roll, and Bynum's positional pick-and-roll, plus Novak, Toni Douglas, Fields, Walker, just seven people, with two development league players, actually played six consecutive victories. If the media hadn't been everywhere to make Jeremy Lin hate him, this would really be a perfect highlight performance.

But CNN, one of the three major TV stations in the United States, is the media of the Knicks. They will definitely exaggerate. If Jeremy Lin was not in the Knicks, even if he led the team to several consecutive wins, it would not be so sensational. For example, Sun Ce's previous performance was better, but it was not as sensational as Jeremy Lin's performance since the 4th consecutive win. There are gains and losses. Jeremy Lin enjoys the spotlight of the Big Apple City, but he will have to face the misery after his current state ends. Sun Ce's words to Zhang Weiping were really sincere. He regretted that he did not have the opportunity to play against Jeremy Lin at his strongest, and there would be no chance to play against Jeremy Lin in this state. Sun Ce watched Jeremy Lin's performance in recent games, and it felt like... Nash with better athletic ability, accurate and decisive shooting, amazing awareness when passing the ball, and one more thing, his teammates could make the shot. Moreover, everyone is talking about Jeremy Lin, but not many people are discussing Bynum and Stoudemire's pick-and-roll, Tony Douglas's 40% three-point shooting, Novak's average of 3.5 three-pointers during this period, and Landry Fields' defensive contribution. Sun Ce feels that it is difficult for Jeremy Lin to have such explosive shooting and his teammates to play so well again. Meeting the right teammates and coaches at the right time, using the right playing style, and playing crazy performances in the state of explosiveness - this is Sun Ce's view of Lin's madness. There is a little regret, but Sun Ce doesn't care so much. After arriving at the hotel in Oklahoma City, Sun Ce made up for two hours of sleep, got up at 1 o'clock in the afternoon, ate something, and went to the Ford Center with his teammates. At 8 o'clock in the evening, the second game of 4 games in 5 days will be played. Sun Ce doesn't have time to care about Jeremy Lin now. Even if Jeremy Lin leads the Knicks to win consecutive games until the All-Star Weekend, it has nothing to do with him. What lies in front of him now is the Thunder team that has tied with them 1 to 1 this season!
