1571. Leading the Triple-Double List! (Part 3)

The new year is coming again, on January 1, 2014, Sun Ce and the team came to Phoenix City, No. 3 will challenge the Suns away, and No. 4 will play the Pistons back-to-back.

Obviously, No. 1 and No. 2 had two days off, and they had to play back-to-back games on No. 3 and No. 4, which made Sun Ce and his teammates complain, but they also knew that they had to consider not only one of their teams, but also other teams' schedules.

In the evening, the Thunder team lost to the Mavericks at home, and the record became 17-16, in the last three games, the Thunder team only had 1 win and 2 losses, and the two games that Durant just came back, the Thunder team played amazingly, but counting the three games including tonight, Sun Ce felt that the Thunder team inevitably entered a period of adjustment.

When Durant first returned, he gave the rest of the Thunder a morale boost, winning two games in a row and beating the Bulls in the Christmas game.

But morale and momentum are all temporary, and you still have to rely on strength to speak, and Durant's return, although it must have greatly improved the strength of the Thunder team, but the Thunder team and Durant have completely changed before the injury, and now they want to run in again.

However, in this game of regrettable loss to the Mavericks, Durant shot hard when he received a pass from Westbrook, and threw it if he had a chance...... It can be said that Durant's style of play was influenced by Westbrook, anyway, after Westbrook did not get a triple-double in two games, he got a triple-double in the first game of the new year, and the number of triple-doubles this season has reached 16.

16 triple-doubles in 33 games, staggering.

However, on Sun Ce's side, after playing the Lakers at the end of December and starting to have a triple-double in 4 consecutive games, the number of triple-doubles for his Sun Someone has reached 15!

This speed, played for two months, 30 games, 16 triple-doubles...... The probability of a triple-double is higher than that of Vesbrook! Moreover, after these four games, Sun Ce's average assists per game have risen to 9!

The battle between Sun Ce and Westbrook for the triple-double king has become more and more intense, and fans have a focus that they can't bear to give up in the middle of this season, and this, the league is actually the most happy to see, in the middle of the season, not only the players have multiple fatigue mentally and physically, but the fans can't find more to watch.

At this time, the battle between Sun Ce and Westbrook for the triple-double king has become the main attraction of the alliance.

No, the Thunder lost to the Mavericks 98-103, and Westbrook got his 16th triple-double to tie Sun Ce again, and it also made the headlines on the NBA's official website.

The topic of Westbrook averaging 12 assists per game, Sun Ce's averaging 9 assists per game, and other topics that continue to expand......

……

Sun Ce tried hard to eliminate the urge to brush a triple-double, in fact, in the past four games, there were two triple-doubles, which were taken by teammates to help Sun Ce, and when he was ahead or behind by a big score, his teammates received his pass and threw it directly.

Fortunately, they have been a strong team for several years in a row, and Sun Ce and his teammates will not play randomly to get a triple-double, but more rely on Sun Ce's stronger and stronger personal ability and the better shooting ability of the outside pitchers, Sun Ce has won a triple-double in four consecutive games.

Came to Phoenix for a night of rest, went to the West Jersey Arena on the 2nd for a day of preparation, and on the 3rd, the Grizzlies and Suns played a rather fierce game.

After two months of play, on January 1st, the Suns finally got a qualified point guard from the Raptors - DJ Augustin.

Augustin averaged only 2 points and 0.5 assists per game in the 10 games he played with the Raptors, and in the first game of the Suns, he got 15 points and 8 assists.

The newcomer Augustin played very aggressively and led the Suns, plus Crowder, Jordan Jr., Antetokounmpo, Morris Brothers, Channing Fry, Plumlee, and other teammates who can shoot or run, to score 108 points in a single game, but fortunately, the Grizzlies scored 112 points and won a thrilling victory.

Sun Ce's triple-double was broken tonight, and after 35 minutes, Sun Ce shot 15 of 27, including 4 of 11 three-pointers, plus 8 of 9 free throws, and scored 42 points, 9 rebounds and 4 assists to help the team win.

Winning a game is definitely something to be proud of to be cheered on by the away fans, and Sun Ce is also happy to be cheered on in other teams' cities.

But for Suns fans shouting "go home", Sun Ce doesn't miss it so much now.

People always change over time.

……

The morning after playing the Suns, Sun Ce and his teammates came to Detroit in the dust, and played back-to-back games with the Pistons that night.

Paul George, Livingston and Gasol Jr. are rested tonight, with Randolph returning to start alongside Larry Sanders.

The starting lineup of Sun Ce, Tony Allen, and Klay Thompson, paired with the combination of Larry Sanders and Randolph, who are currently the best defense on the Grizzlies, looks strong.

However, the Grizzlies trailed by 22 points at one point in the first half! The Pistons trailed 31-53 at halftime into halftime!

Randolph, who has just returned, is not in good shape, and the outside defense is not doing well because of back-to-back, and the key is that he does not shoot well.

Sun Ce only got 7 points, 5 boards, 2 assists and 1 steal in the half.

At halftime, Sun Ce didn't want to give up, played a physical potion, and in the second half with Beverley, Hardaway Jr., Klay Thompson, Richard Jefferson, Yi Jianlian, Prince, and the seven-man rotation soared for half time, once narrowing the difference to three points.

But in the end, it was defeated by Jennings' three-point block.

114-108, Jennings hit a key three-pointer with nine seconds left, and didn't give the Grizzlies a chance to tie the score and drag it into overtime.

A loss is a loss, but the Grizzlies went 77-61 in the second half, chasing a 16-point deficit at halftime, almost scaring the fans at Auburn Hills Palace.

Sun Ce scored 23 points, 6 boards, 9 assists, 2 blocks and 2 steals in the second half.

It's just that their Grizzlies basically didn't defend in the second half, played well offensively, and conceded a lot of points.

With 30 points, 11 boards, 11 assists, 2 blocks and 3 steals, Sun Ce's triple-double has one more, leading Westbrook by one time again, and the number of triple-doubles has reached 17, leading Westbrook again.

Jennings with 26 points and 11 assists tonight, Sun Ce feels that the other party has changed a lot this year, there have been a lot of adjustments in the details of the style of play, and he is more willing to cooperate with his teammates, and the blocking and dismantling of Drummond is very sharp, Drummond has averaged 18.2 points and 15.4 boards per game in 35 games this year, and Jennings has played a great help.

And Jennings' average of 18 points, 2.5 rebounds and 9.5 assists per game is also beautiful, and although the Pistons' record is not very good, it is not as low as it has been in the past few years.
