1481. The Last Ring (Part 5)
On the contrary, the fans at the scene were very excited, this is the familiar taste, the familiar feeling!
However, Coach Hollins still has to consider the fans' viewing experience, and in the second half of the third quarter, he sent Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Richard Jefferson, and Yi Jianlian to play and run!
On the Mavericks' side, they also changed the lineup of Conley, Carter, Marion, Bosh and Blair to play offense in a timely manner.
The current lineup is the most aggressive lineup in the Grizzlies' main lineup.
Double 3D is not too much of a drifting problem, and there may be, for example, the two don't look down on most of their contemporaries now, but they still play hard.
Klay Thompson has already started talking about a contract extension after he moved to Bill Duffy.
Sun Ce's intention was to pay a cap, which scared Klay Thompson.
But after feeling a strong trust from Sun Ce, who was promoted to the second brother, Klay Thompson decided to pursue the top salary and play hard.
Although Sun Ce can't suppress the pride of his teammates after winning two consecutive championships, it is part of self-confidence and can't be suppressed, but he can find a way to create goals for his teammates.
Randolph and Gasol Jr. have been playing old fritters for more than 10 years...... Gasol Jr. has been playing in Europe for more than 10 years, and the two Sun Ce have been flickering in this regard, both of them are players at the level of retired Grizzlies jerseys, and they can only adjust on their own.
But Klay Thompson can still fool around, and Paul George has to play hard this season, work hard to improve, and try to get his salary cap next summer, and that's no problem.
Richard Jefferson certainly has to work hard, and he's coming for the championship.
Yi Jianlian doesn't have to worry about self-discipline, the most self-disciplined player in the team, Sun Ce sighed to himself, and returned to his motherland to play, Yi Jianlian played a thief, and he also scored two three-pointers with Bosh.
After a beautiful battle against each other, the last two teams still have to fight, but not the pure main force.
The Grizzlies, for their part, played the final quarter with a lineup of Beverley, Hardaway Jr., Paul George, Randolph, and Larry Sanders.
On the Mavericks' side, Calderon, Wayne Ellington, Carter, Bosh, and Hellam Porter played the final quarter.
Carter looked at Paul George, the core of the opposite lineup, full of Maddie's shadow.
Unlike others, Carter plays basketball, probably the purest love, he is about to turn 37 years old, and his condition is actually better than last year, Sun Ce was very surprised to see the strength of Carter's B+ level starter, even if he knew that Carter was in good shape, he didn't expect it to be so good.
Seeing Carter receive Calderon's pass in the counterattack and receive the ball empty, Carter's head almost flattened due to the lack of confrontation...... Sun Ce was speechless......
In the end, relying on defense and running in the second and third quarters, the Grizzlies defeated the Mavericks 107-97 and won their first preseason victory.
……
On the 14th, the Grizzlies and Mavericks came to Shanghai for a day of business activities, and at 8 p.m., the second game of the China game began.
In the first game, the managers of both teams identified the problems of their own teams and made adjustments.
It doesn't matter if you win or lose in the preseason, in order to find the problem and solve the problem, if you can't solve it, you will find a way to avoid the problem, and you can't avoid it...... There are always problems that cannot be avoided, and if all the problems of all teams have a way to solve them, then it is no different from not solving them.
Since the Grizzlies did not have a training camp contract, they had a clear advantage in the game, and even though there were a lot of adjustment errors in the game, they still won easily, beating the Mavericks 98-91 to win two straight preseason games.
On the 15th, the China game ended, and the Grizzlies had a day off as a team, and on the 16th, they went to Dì Dū to transfer back to Memphis.
On this day, Sun Ce didn't go out to play, in China, there are three places where he can't travel normally, one is Chóng Qìng, there are many people in that place, and he can't find the way, and the more he follows the navigation, the more he gets lost.
The other two are the two international metropolises in China, Shanghai and Beijing, and government workers talked to him last year after he insisted on pulling Yi Jianlian out of the door to press the road and causing a traffic jam......
When Sun Ce swiped his phone, he saw two very interesting news, the first was that Garnett and Anthony had a verbal altercation in the preseason game.
Sun Ce didn't know what the Nets thought, signed Anthony and got Garnett back, for the sake of the "superstar" players, the Nets didn't even care about the most basic thing - unity.
Anthony, who was still in Houston last year, almost got into a fight with Garnett in the away game against the Celtics, and it is said that Anthony went to the parking lot to block people after the game, and Garnett did not walk from the parking lot and escaped.
Sun Ce checked that the head coach of the Nets is Avery Johnson, the former head coach of the Mavericks with a 67-win season......
Delon + Anthony + Joe Johnson + Da Lopets, there are four outstanding singles players in the starter, Sun Ce feels that the coach, the Nets management considers the characteristics of the players, no problem, maybe Garnett got it back, but also to be able to play a good block and dismantling with Delon, with a good starting point.
But Sun Ce feels that the Nets might as well have Boozer, which is more suitable.
In the final analysis, Sun Ce is still unwilling to be taken away by the Lakers.
Another piece of news is that the Mavericks have got a point guard back, and Sun Ce sees that the Mavericks point guards can directly form a five-man group, and they traded Jarred Cunningham, a short point guard selected last season, from the Hawks to Shaun Larkin, who was drafted with the 17th pick this year.
I don't know what strange trick Carlisle is going to sacrifice, Sun Ce remembered that in the playoffs this season, the Mavericks' tattered lineup actually played with the Spurs to tie seven! They didn't have Bosh then!
Even if the combination of Bosh + Nowitzki is not good, the two will be replaced, and with Nowitzki's willing to sacrifice character, it is not necessary to choose to play as a substitute.
If given the choice, Sun Ce genuinely doesn't want to play the Mavericks in the playoffs.
……
……
At 5 a.m. ET on October 17, Sun Ce and his teammates returned to Memphis.
Sun Ce went home to make up for his sleep, and when he woke up, he heard good news!
After struggling for half a month, Stoudemire finally rejected the invitations of the Heat, Bulls, and Nets, and joined the Grizzlies with a veteran base salary of $1.5 million a year!
After receiving a call from Chris Wallace, Sun Ce didn't care about the fatigue of jet lag, and asked Chris Wallace about it.
It turned out that after seeing the internal contradictions on the Nets' side, Stoudemire took the initiative to contact Chris Wallace to discuss the atmosphere in detail about the team, and finally chose to join.
And it is not a part of the middle class, but a basic salary.
Stoudemire is going to get more than 41 million dollars from the Knicks in the next two years, and he doesn't care about that money!
