Playing two games between the Timberwolves and the Wizards, nothing special happened, as far as the duel between Sun Ce and Jonny Flynn and Sun Ce is a bit interesting, the Timberwolves inside and outside seem to live in two worlds, the interior defense is completely ignored, only focusing on grabbing rebounds, playing alone when there is a ball on the offensive end, and grabbing rebounds by yourself when there is no ball......

The Grizzlies won comfortably 99-89.

It's easier to play the Wizards, and the other side has no intention of playing......

The Grizzlies had a poor mid-range shooting today, scoring only 91 points in the game, but still winning by 34 points...... The Wizards scored only 57 points as a team!

Completely lost fighting spirit.

With an easy four-game winning streak, the Grizzlies improved their record to 33-15.

……

The easy game is over, and the brutal schedule is about to begin.

On the morning of the 5th, Sun Ce came to the arena and was going to play the Lakers tomorrow, and after entering February, the Grizzlies players ...... All excited!

Sun Ce is the same.

After the All-Star Weekend, it can be regarded as entering the second half of the season, and it is obviously impossible to say that Sun Ce and his teammates have no ideas.

This season has exceeded the expectations of fans, and the team's expectations have been improved from 40+ wins to the playoffs after sending away Tabit and Mayo in succession in exchange for Sun Ce, Battier, Anthony Parker and others.

Although the gap between the 33-15 and the fourth-place Jazz at 35-14 is very small, the Grizzlies management's expectation is still the playoffs, and the rest of the schedule is miserable, and it would be good to enter the playoffs as seventh and eighth in the end......

But the players are different!

The schedule is difficult and I still want to fight!

Next up will be the Lakers, Rockets, and Cavaliers, three teams with superstars better than Randolph, who still want to beat their opponents.

Now Sun Ce and his teammates, with the good results they have now, of course they want to be better.

Tomorrow is the Lakers, and facing the defending champions is the best opponent for Sun Ce and his teammates to test the results of their personnel adjustments and tactical run-ins after a long 45-game regular season.

But today is also a very special day.

In the morning, Sun Ce came to the team alone at eight o'clock to train, practicing and practicing, Guy, Gasol Jr., and Randolph also arrived early at half past eight, and the others gradually came to the stadium and began to be lively and have a very happy discussion.

Today is the day when the All-Star bench, rookie game, eventing and more are announced.

At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the three core players of the team who had a chance to be selected for the All-Star bench were anxiously waiting for the announcement of the All-Star bench lineup amid the ridicule of their teammates.

But sure enough......

Only Randolph was selected, and Gay and Gasol Jr., who is still a big fat man of more than 260 pounds, are still a cut away from the All-Star.

Although Guy and Gasol Jr. had expected it a long time ago, they were still congested and depressed......

Randolph is about to cry with joy, after nine years, playing so many All-Star levels, and finally getting the approval of the head coaches this season!

Unlike Gay's 19+6 data and Gasol Jr.'s 14+8+4 data with a very low probability of being selected as an All-Star substitute, Randolph has averaged 20+10 per game since his third year, which is a real All-Star-level data, but his data is very similar to Elton Brand, that is, the simple data is good-looking, and it does not improve the team's strength much...... Sometimes it's even a side effect.

But this season's Randolph is the foundation for the Grizzlies to rise!

Gasol Jr., Gay, Conley, Battier, Sun Ce, Jordan Jr., Anthony Parker and others are the key to the Grizzlies' take-off, but without the foundation of Randolph, they will definitely not be able to take off!

Sun Ce was relieved to see Randolph selected as an All-Star bench, and he was worried that because he was selected as an All-Star starter, those head coaches would not vote for Randolph because the Grizzlies already had a full-fledged team.

In that case, Sun Ce feels that he is guilty of a great crime, and Randolph will not be selected as an All-Star in the next few years.

And what makes Sun Ce happy is that Nash was successfully selected as an All-Star substitute!

This year's All-Star East bench lineup consists of Rajon Rondo, Paul Pearce, Joe Johnson, Al Horford, Derrick Rose, Gerald Wallace, Chris Bosh.

The Western Conference All-Star bench consists of Steve Nash, Amare Stoudemire, Tim Duncan, Zach Randolph, Pau Gasol, Kevin Durant, Dirk Nowitzki.

Nash was selected as an All-Star bench, and Sun Ce could switch places with Nash......

Rookie All-Star Bench ...... Sun Ce felt a little floating when he thought about it......

It's just that Sun Ce felt weird when he saw the bench lineup...... "Why are there so many interior All-Stars in the West?" ”

……

……

The All-Star bench lineup is released, and the media that have been ready for a long time have begun to act, and the cities where the teams with players who have the probability of being selected for the All-Star bench are located, and if they are selected, they can go to interview the "acceptance speech", and playing the All-Star game is similar to winning the award.

If you don't win an award, you can dig to see if there is any news, ask for the testimonials of the defeat, and do things.

The Lakers arrived in Memphis at noon, and the Lakers, one of the most popular basketball clubs in the world, were blocked by reporters from the moment they arrived at the airport.

The press officer of the Lakers team had no choice but to find a place for the airport management to conduct a temporary interview.

Teams playing away from home have more reporters than home teams...... And it's at the airport, and there's no one.

Among them, of course, a No. 24 player who has won four championships and only one Finals MVP has the most reporters around him.

"Kobe, the Grizzlies have played really well this year, they're fifth in the West, and there's a chance to meet you in the second round, what do you think of their performance?"

'They've played well, they've got a reasonable squad, all they're lacking is experience, and with that experience I think they'll be a big rival for us on our way to winning the title and I'd love to see that happen.' Kobe Bryant gave a very official answer.

"Kobe, the All-Star bench just came out, Paul was selected to the All-Star bench lineup, and Zach of the Grizzlies was also selected to the All-Star bench lineup, and they also have an All-Star starting lineup like you, do you think you and Paul vs. Noah and Zach are the biggest highlights of tonight's game?" This is a question from a local reporter in Tennessee.

This question made Kobe's expression change.

It's very unpleasant!

He was actually put in the forward position by the league because the league wanted to let a rookie be selected as an All-Star starter!

He felt that he was short of tens of thousands of votes and didn't get the vote king, and it was all caused by this rookie!

And Sun Ce is too popular, judging from the data, and Luke Wharton's performance at his peak, Kobe Bryant and DeLong are very unhappy about it, and the media evaluation when he won three consecutive championships was not so high, but targeted him everywhere.

A no.24 feels that being targeted by the media has nothing to do with him.

And this rookie was actually selected as an All-Star in his rookie season!

Kobe Bryant himself was selected in the second grade!

Faced with a question from a Tennessee reporter, Kobe Bryant didn't make the other party happy, and asked, "Who is Noah?" ”

……

Who is Noah?

Hundreds of reporters surrounded the Lakers players for a long time, and the Lakers' group of old fritters were all picking up good news to deal with reporters, and they didn't want to get into trouble.

But digging a breaking point from Kobe!

Who is Noah? 》

The headlines of the major sports media have become this, and even the list of All-Star substitutes has been suppressed!

An All-Star starter scolds another All-Star starter, a 14th year veteran, defending champion, and just won the Finals MVP superstar slaps a rookie......

That's a lot more attractive than the All-Star bench!

Soon, the news went viral, and a crazy heated discussion began on the Internet.

The biggest topic is...... Kobe Bryant is going to abuse vegetables again!

A rookie was selected as an All-Star starter, which made many old fans feel uncomfortable, Sun Ce's performance was indeed good, but it didn't seem to have anything to do with the All-Star.

Just like Yao Ming back then, Sun Ce wants to be recognized by fans outside of Memphis or Tennessee, and he has to prove himself with his performance in future games.

……

……

Hook at the free throw line, hook at one step and three seconds inside the free throw line, hook at a 45-degree angle from close range on the right side, hook on both sides of the basket facing the rebound and facing away from the rebound......

Sun Ce has been training this for a while, and for the time being, he doesn't consider developing hooks in other positions, and specializes in practicing these areas that he is good at.

Just like Battier specializes in three-pointers in the bottom corner, Sun Ce wants to practice these shooting areas that seem to be talented first!

Unlike Nash and Curry's layups, which are just basic moves, the small hook is a shooting skill that is judged by the system to be proficient, which can be upgraded to a level, and the supporting skill of "small sky hook" will be activated after level 5.

After a long period of hard practice, and also the experience of controlling the direction of the ball thrown out in the previous long-term practice, Sun Ce has practiced the hook hand during this time, which is the least disturbed and consumed shooting action, and the progress can be regarded as very fast.

After the team's tactical training in the afternoon, Sun Ce practiced two more sets of hook hands, and when the practice was over, the system prompt came!

"Congratulations to the host for successfully widening the shooting range of the small hook hand, and the small hook hand proficiency has been increased to level 2."

"Small hook: The host develops its own shooting action, and the best shot distance is within 10 feet. Proficiency Level 2, Expanded Shooting Zone: A three-second zone at the front of the basket to the free throw line, extending up to 14 feet. (Level 5 can obtain the matching skill: Little Sky Hook.) ）”

"Wow! Upgraded! ”

Sun Ce looked at the introduction of the upgraded little hook hand, and felt that his efforts were not in vain......

He is looking forward to the skill of Xiao Tiangou obtained after reaching level 5, and he doesn't know what the difference is with Tiangou.

As for the increase in the proficiency of the small hook hand...... This is actually not important, he will practice the hook in other areas in the future, and this proficiency level will increase, just a reference.

Just when Sun Ce was about to practice while the iron was hot for a while, Chris Kyle, the team's news manager, came to the training ground.

"Noah, get ready, there will be a reporter coming to interview soon." Kyle said to Sun Ce.

"Isn't it an interview tomorrow at noon? Why is this time coming? Sun Ce asked strangely.

The Grizzlies are a counterattack army, playing the Lakers, Cavaliers, and other games that are the first in the West and the East, there must be interviews, but they are all planned and scheduled, even if there are temporary interviews with reporters, it is also an interview arranged by the players' agents and the media, and it should not be notified by the team's press officer.

However, people are in good spirits on happy occasions, Sun Ce is in a good mood now, after Kyle came to inform, Sun Ce went to the locker room to wipe off his sweat and changed into a set of training clothes.

By the time he returned to the training ground, Kyle had already taken the . T's reporter came, and this is a media outlet that has a good relationship with the Grizzlies.

When I arrived at the lounge, after a polite moment, the reporter began to ask questions.

In fact, it is a paraphrase of Kobe's answer to the interview.

Sun Ce soaked in the stadium all day today, but he didn't expect to be scolded by a snake!

"Knock on you! That abominable West Coast viper actually attacked Lao Tzu! ”

Sun Ce scolded wildly in his heart...... Although he is a superstar, Sun Ce is still so unhappy!

Sun Ce's eyes grunted......

"It's normal that he doesn't know me, he's the defending champion, but I'm sure Mark will be better than his brother in the future, the youngsters will always be stronger than the veterans, and we believe we can win the title too, although it's hard but ......"

"Someone has to win, why can't it be me?"

……

……

PS: Oh, it may be that the effect of the medicine is better, I didn't wake up until eight o'clock in the morning, and the alarm clock at six o'clock didn't wake up Xiaofeng, and I woke up and hurried to the company, so I didn't have anything to do in the morning, and I was two hours late.

It feels good now, and the next chapter is still updated at five o'clock ~ the next chapter is nine o'clock in the evening.

Asking for recommendation votes~ They all fell outside the top five of the classification......
