Sun Ce didn't pay attention to the exchange of two bad contracts at all, and his attention was on the transaction of his own team.

The Grizzlies bought the draft pick for cash, then traded the $10.88 million trade exception that Gay applied for this season to get Jason Williams to get Jason Williams' $2.6 million expiring contract on the salary cap.

The Magic traded for Arenas, and Jason Williams definitely didn't have playing time, and Jason Williams played 5 times in 10 games for the Magic this season.

An honest point guard who could still shoot 1 three-pointer per game last season, the Magic wanted to get Arenas without playing time, and it really sold 600,000 US dollars......

This transaction can be regarded as taking advantage of a loophole in the NBA rules.

rules, you can always find loopholes, and this time the Grizzlies and Magic took advantage of it.

This is not uncommon in the history of the NBA, Sun Ce feels that after trading with the Cavaliers, Big Z did not report and was bought out, and then returned to the Cavaliers.

But...... can exchange 600,000 US dollars for a point guard who can catch the ball and shoot, this operation is excellent! The fact that he hasn't given away his own draft pick yet really shows that team manager Chris Wallace has studied the rules.

As a player, or the team's first point of possession, it's natural to have a good pitcher on board.

However, trading Jason Williams back is very controversial in Grizzlies management.

Sun Ce occasionally had a situation where his brain was pumping and playing waves, which originally made Coach Hollins a little worried, so Coach Hollins was opposed to trading back Jason Williams.

But Jason Williams is actively trying to return to the Grizzlies to retire......

The Magic had already given Jason Williams the right to contact other teams when they were making progress with the Wizards in discussions about a trade for Arenas and Lewis.

Originally, Jason Williams didn't consider the Grizzlies, the Grizzlies were full, and they were about to talk to Pat Riley to go to the Heat, and he could still shoot 1 three-pointer per game last season, with a three-point shooting rate of 38 percent, which is very attractive to the Heat team with the Jenway combination.

But Gay was suddenly injured, and it was a season reimbursement, and a spot was temporarily vacated after applying for an injury exception, Jason Williams had already won the championship, and he was about to retire anyway, and he hoped to return to the Grizzlies to retire.

And the Grizzlies didn't want to get Jason Williams from the start, but ...... When the news of Jason Williams wanting to come back reached the owner, the owner, who bought the team to watch the game, ordered Jason Williams to get Jason Williams back and retire him from the team that had passed his prime......

After all, Jason Williams is currently the Grizzlies' all-time assist leader, with more than 2,000 assists in total, and is the only player in Grizzlies history to have more than 1,500 assists, followed by Pau Gasol's 1,473.

The owner is that kind of idealist, and Chris Wallace is also a supporter of that team culture, and Coach Hollins can't stop it......

The deal has been made, and all the trials that had been prepared before are canceled.

Although it was unfair to the players who came to the tryout, they prepared for a long time, ready for the tryout, and as a result, the Grizzlies did not even open the official tryout, and directly found the target of recruitment.

But that's how cruel the NBA is.

……

……

The next day, the Grizzlies played the last of three consecutive home games, and then they had to play a two-game away streak, and it was a bit hard.

Sun Ce got up early, and when he took a shower after morning exercise, he took a good look at the latest ability evaluation.

The ability evaluation has been improved to B+, which is happy and feels that there is a long way to go for Sun Ce......

From April 2009 to November 2010, in 1 year and 7 months, Sun Ce has gone from a freshman who is a speed-based and ball-quotient genius to a B+ level player and a stable NBA starter......

This rate of progress, judging from his performance in the game, everyone regarded him as a super talent, and he only started to officially play basketball in the NBA, but he became a stable starter in more than a year, and became a leader in various statistics in a team like the Grizzlies.

But Sun Ce himself knew how much he had sacrificed.

Reduced a lot of recreational activities, 365 days a year, at least 300 days a day to exhaustion......

However, men's happiness is different from others, Sun Ce intuitively saw that his ability evaluation was upgraded to the B+ level, and when he reached this big bottleneck, he was a real star, and he could become the real core of the weak team!

I don't know how long it will take to break through again, but the goal is clear, that is, to become a star, and I have plenty of motivation, which is really cool.

After breakfast, Sun Ce went to the stadium to prepare for the game.

The arrival of a new teammate doesn't affect most of the players.

Anyway, it didn't have any impact on Sun Ce.

Coach Hubby Brown joined the Grizzlies after the All-Star Weekend in the 2002-2003 season, and spent a small half a year transforming Jason Williams, and by the 03-04 season, Jason Williams had completely changed as a person, not as aura as he was during the Kings and a year and a half when he first joined the Grizzlies, and became an extremely good team player, and even Pat Riley rushed to give a big contract.

Such a teammate joins, and is 35 years old, that is, a pitcher, a pitcher is something that any teammate likes, can open up space, and even another pitcher will like to have one more pitcher in the team.

But there is also the one who feels excited, and that is Sean Battier.

Both joined the Grizzlies in 2001 and played at their peak in the 01-02 season, with Battier averaging 14 points and 5 rebounds per game in his rookie year, and Jason Williams averaging 14 points and 8 assists per game.

But he couldn't play well, and after the All-Star Weekend in the 02-03 season, the head coach was fired.

Then Old Hubby Brown came and revamped Jason Williams and Battier, and by the '03-04 season, both of them had become role players, and Pau Gasol's mid-range ball ability was greatly developed, and the Grizzlies jumped to 50 wins and made the playoffs.

Battier is now in the background, occasionally thinking that if he hadn't met Huby Brown and continued to play as an all-round player in college, Jason Williams hasn't met Huby Brown and has always been so sassy......

Jason Williams will not report to Memphis until after the next two consecutive road trips for personal reasons.

This matter was agreed by the Grizzlies coaching staff, anyway, Jason Williams will not be put into the future plan when he comes back, after this season, he will retire, if the shooting can return to the level of last season, of course, he can play more minutes, if not, just look at the water cooler.

……

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Ce and his teammates entered the court to play the Kings.

Without Evans' Kings team, Sun Ce didn't take the other party seriously at all, and they were also a strong team with 11 consecutive wins in the opening game.

The Grizzlies as a whole didn't take the Kings seriously and were ready to use this game as a game to practice their tactics.

And then......

The Grizzlies are in for an upset!

Sun Ce played 33 minutes, scored 17 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists on 7-of-15 shooting, and his performance was okay, and the Grizzlies' overall performance was also good, and their tactics were well practiced.

But they were too light, the opponent led by 7 points in the first quarter at 33-25, and the Grizzlies felt that the defense was tight and could catch up casually, and they fell behind by nearly 10 points in the next two quarters, but the Grizzlies didn't pay attention to it, and the opponent was the bottom team in the league.

But...... A player like Cousins, when he is happy to be beaten, he can't contain it!

Cousins, who scored 16 points, 7 boards and 8 assists in the first three quarters, scored 12 points, 3 boards and 4 assists in a single quarter in the fourth quarter, and Gasol Jr. couldn't stop it!

Led by Cousins' 28 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists triple-double, the Kings were on fire and won the Grizzlies by 13 points!

101-114, the Grizzlies were upset by the Kings, and the 11-game winning streak in the opening game was ended!

Cousins became only the second rookie to record a triple-double this season.

The first was not Wall, but Sun Ce's fellow Griffin, who got a triple-double in the fifth game.

Rookies play well and are always more likely to attract attention.

After the start of the new season, Griffin, the 09-year-old champion White Monster, quickly exploded, but there is another explosion in this rookie, that is, Cousins, who just faced the Grizzlies and won a triple-double!

Before the start of the new season, they all thought that Wall would be the best rookie this season, but who knew that after playing more than a dozen games in the season, he gradually became the most eye-catching of the two interior rookies!

……

The 11-game winning streak at the beginning was ended, and the Grizzlies were a little depressed, especially the public opinion led by the media, saying that they were without Guy, missing the strongest player on the outside, and the stability was not as good as before.

Of course, that's true, but they're definitely frustrated, knowing they can't go on a winning streak all the time, but they think they can win at least until they meet Spurs.

But the game has been lost, and the Grizzlies players are left to regulate their emotions on their own.

"The second stage of the road of the bear king (S): The beginning of a new era in team history, 11 consecutive wins, the event score of this stage is B+, and the event score of this stage is increased to A+ due to the completion of special events by the host."

The 11-game winning streak was ended, and the opening winning streak was over, Sun Ce has been playing for more than a year, and the mentality of the fans is very different, knowing that it is impossible to win all the time, even if it is the invincible Lakers in 01, don't they lose one game in the playoffs.

It's normal to lose, especially in the regular season.

And Sun Ce calmed down and thought about it...... It is a good thing for them to look down on their public opinion at the moment, and they need to leave the spotlight for a while in order to have a good tactical run-in.

It is very important for them to be able to find the best style of play without Guy at the beginning of the season and run in well!
