901. Fourth triple-double! (4th Update: Commuter Pass)
The third week of the best was indeed a surprise, Sun Ce didn't notice that another week had passed, and when he saw that he got the best of the week, he remembered that he sent Zu Ge to school in the morning and yesterday and the day before yesterday, Zu Gee got up early in the morning and followed Lily Collins to visit the set.
In the East, Howard ended the reign of James and Rose.
In the last week of the first game month, Howard seemed to have found his way of playing, 4 games, averaging 17 points, 18.8 rebounds and 2 blocks per game, even though there were 4 turnovers and 4.8 fouls, but this week Howard performed too well, the 76ers played 5 games in 7 days, including 4 games in 5 days, but the 76ers were stunned to win all 5 games, and the 76ers, who played 22 games in the first game month, with a 15-7 record, surpassed the 14-7 Heat team in second place in the East, second only to the 15-6 Bulls!
The 76ers once fell to fifth in the East with 10 wins and 7 losses, and were overwhelmed by the Celtics, but in the past week, relying on Evans, who averaged 25 points, 5 rebounds and 7 assists per game, Howard, who averaged 17+18 per game, and the outstanding performances of Iguodala, Holiday and Thaddeus Young, the 76ers have signs of running in.
However, in addition to the top three Bulls, 76ers, and Heat, Sun Ce saw the record in the East, and the Pacers, who were fourth in the East, were 12-10.
The Celtics, who were 11-5 before, have only 11-10 records and have lost five consecutive games in the past five games; The Pacers, who once ranked 11-6 in front of the 76ers, have now been surpassed by the 76ers, with 1 win and 4 losses in the past 8 days.
Sun Ce of these two teams took a look at the recent data changes of their players, found clues, and felt that it was normal for their records to decline.
The Celtics are old and the Pacers are young.
On the Pacers' side, Gordon Hayward, Darren Collisson, and Roy Hibbert's young trio started the season well, and with the big brother Granger, who was still averaging 18 points per game in his prime, the Pacers started the game fiercely.
Granger hasn't been bad lately and has been very consistent, but the three young teammates can't be consistent, sophomore Hayward, third-year Darren Collison, and fourth-year Hibbert, these three important players of the Pacers have no experience, and second-year head coach Frank Vogel is also inexperienced.
is also physically unable to hold on, the Celtics are purely old, Garnett and Pierce are limited in playing time, Sun Ce saw that the two of them have been limited to less than 24 minutes in the past period, and knows that Rivers would rather lose some games than these two veterans to play more.
In terms of the health of the players, Sun Ce has always admired Rivers, not to mention anything else, Garnett is so old when he comes back from a serious injury, and he can still play so well, which has a lot to do with Rivers' rotation strategy, at least Sun Ce thinks so.
The best game in the East in the first game month, no accidents, was won by James, although the Bulls had a better record, but James's performance was terrible!
In the first game month of Wade's injury and suspension of 6 games, Bosh also missed 3 games, and Mike Miller also missed 11 games, James averaged 29.1 points, 8.9 rebounds, 9.1 assists, 1.9 steals and 1 block per game, helping the Heat to achieve a 14-7 record, and James played an average of 42 minutes per game in 21 games, which is simply cruel.
Sun Ce looked at James' stats and playing time, and felt that James wanted to cramp himself.
As far as Sun Ce remembers this season, James is the MVP, the best defensive player gets the second most votes, and it is the kind of situation where the best defensive player only gets the second defense, and he James gets the highest number of votes for the best defensive team.
Looking at the MVP rankings, relying on the outstanding performance in the last two games, he Sun is ranked first.
Parker second, Rose third, James fourth, Kobe fifth, Howard sixth, Durant seventh, Evans eighth, Lawson ninth......
That is, in addition to competing with Rose, Evans, and Durant for MVP, James and Kobe Bryant also have to make a move? Brother Xueji, can we change to an S-class event, can I fight for the best defensive player? ”
……
……
The learning machine ignored Sun Ce, and Sun Ce continued to embark on his own path to compete for the second regular season MVP.
It's not easy to win MVP, as strong as Kobe, Garnett, and O'Neal, all of whom only have 1 regular season MVP, and his grandson is going to compete for MVP......
The road ahead is tough, but you still have to keep moving forward.
After the lunch break, Sun Ce came to the stadium at 3 o'clock to start preparing for the game, and read the opponent's scouting report for a while.
14-8 Nuggets, currently ranked third in the West, Lawson and Lowry are definitely the key figures, Lawson has played an average of 33 minutes per game so far this season, with 14 points, 2.5 rebounds and 8.5 assists, Lowry's side, this season has become Lawson's substitute, but the average points per game have risen against the trend, as the sixth man, he has averaged 17 points, 3.5 boards and 3 assists per game, and his performance is very good.
According to the scouting report, the Knicks, Heat, Bobcats, Trail Blazers, and Rockets are all interested in Lowry for teams that lack point guards.
Lowry, who will be a free agent this summer, is bound to be a big fish to be sought after by various teams.
There was not much time to prepare, and at half past four, Sun Ce and his teammates began to warm up for tonight's game......
……
At 106-115, the Grizzlies' five-game winning streak was ended.
It's really impossible to prevent it!
Mr. Tony's physical strength is not good, and he does not play well back-to-back; Paul George, like the Pacers' three young stars, has had his ups and downs lately, and it's normal for him to have a slump in playing time and a tight schedule as he is only in his second year.
Neal, Yi Jianlian, Jordan Jr., Battier, and Speights all played well today, but they didn't do well on the defensive end, Lawson scored 14 points and 12 assists, Lowry scored 25 points and 3 assists, and under the leadership of the two, the Nuggets scored 115 points.
On the Grizzlies' side, they wanted to defend themselves at the beginning, but they didn't prevent it, Sun Ce decisively started the run-and-bomb play, and the substitute Vazquez also played well when he was in control.
But the score did not win.
Sun Ce scored 22 points, 9 rebounds, 8 assists and 2 blocks, and failed to help the team win.
……
There was no time to mourn that the winning streak was ended, and the 17-5 Grizzlies left Memphis for Atlanta the day after they finished playing the Nuggets, starting a three-game road streak in the East.
The first was No. 3 and No. 4 back-to-back games against the Hawks and Nets.
When playing the Hawks, Sun Ce played very well, playing 35 minutes and getting 17 points, 15 rebounds and 15 assists, 3 times 15 data, plus 1 block and 3 steals, 6 turnovers can be ignored,
Josh Smith steals two super empty passes from Sun Ce to Jordan Jr.,
But don't look at Josh Smith's 4 steals in a single game, the defensive end is not doing well, the Hawks are completely contained by Randolph inside, the Grizzlies shoot outside, and the Hawks are compressed under the basket inside, mainly because Horford played 12 games and was reimbursed for the season, Josh Smith and Marvin Williams can't prevent Randolph, and can only clip Randolph's offensive rebounds.
Although Randolph only had 21 points, most of them were won by offensive rebounds, and Randolph, who got 8 offensive rebounds in 33 minutes of playing time, was stunned to get 21+12 data.
Randolph who grabbed the offensive rebound without the ball in the double bag...... This scene is rare to see!
This time it was Nash's turn to shoot, Nash played 31 minutes, and his hand was so good that it exploded, with 11 of 12 shots, 29 points and 6 assists, and 20+ for the first time after coming to the Grizzlies!
Nash actually shot 11-of-11 with 1 minute left in the third quarter, but in order to get 30+, he didn't make a ...... In the fourth quarter, he didn't ask to play, and he felt sorry for himself and was broken by himself.
In the fourth quarter, Sun Ce played for 5 minutes, tied the score to 97-75, and after stretching the difference to more than 20 points, he was replaced and rested.
Playing very easily, the pass is right, Nash alone contributed 7 assists to him, Nash made 5 of 5 three-pointers tonight, played a lot of time, and opened up the space for Sun Ce, Sun Ce and his teammates blocked and dismantled the points, and the passing was very good.
But when it came to No. 4, back-to-back games against the Nets, the Grizzlies didn't play so well.
At present, the Nets are 7-17, and their record is not much different from that of the Mavericks, who are tenth in the West, but the Mavericks are regarded as the favorites for the championship, and the Nets have no possibility of making the playoffs.
The Nets are currently missing two big players, Brook Lopez played five season reimbursements, and nine-finger dunk king Gerard Green also suffered a major injury at the end of last month and is expected to be out for 8-10 weeks, which is about to return in April.
They actually started well, with a 2-0 start, and Da Lopez was 3-2 and ranked fifth in the East before the reimbursement.
But in the next 19 games, 4 wins and 15 losses, Gerard Green, who averaged 14 points per game, is gone.
However, Delong broke out when he saw Sun Ce!
Tony Allen can't be stopped, Sun Ce can't be prevented, Paul George can't be prevented, Battier can't be prevented, fortunately Nash is resting, otherwise Coach Hollins wants Nash to try, after all, Fisher has done a good job defending Delon......
When he was in the middle, Delon passed the ball at the top level, and on the Grizzlies' side, Nash and Gasol Jr. took turns resting, and the offense and defense were affected somewhat, and the Nets once overtook the score in the middle of the fourth quarter.
Fortunately, in the second half of the fourth quarter, the outside shooting of the Nets began to hit the iron, and the defense that fought hard also began to decline, and Sun Ce, who only played 26 minutes in the first three and a half quarters, played the last 5 minutes or more, scoring 7 points and 2 assists, helping the team play a wave of 13-4.
In the end, Sun Ce scored 21 points, 13 rebounds and 7 assists to help the team narrowly defeat the Nets 98-92.
In this game, in the first three quarters, the Grizzlies really relied on Randolph's singles and offensive rebounds to carry the Nets led by Deron with 38 points and 10 assists in a single game.
Fortunately, in the end, Sun Ce made 3 of 3 shots, caught up with the score and sent two assists to seal the win.
However, after the back-to-back games, there was no rest, and the next morning, Sun Ce flew with the team to Boston, which is further northeast than New Jersey.
The last game of the three-game trip - Celtic.
