Spurs ...... This is a normal record...... There's not much to say.

Fourth place, Memphis Grizzlies, lost.

I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, the loss is already the best record in Grizzlies team history.

This is the fourth time the Grizzlies have made the playoffs and the first time in history that they have made the playoffs.

So it's understandable how excited Memphis fans are.

Delong? Williams, Carlos? Boozer's new twin is strong.

Mavericks vs Warriors.

Suns vs Lakers.

Spurs vs Nuggets.

……

It is worth mentioning that all the local newspapers in Memphis reported the news, calling on the citizens to pay attention to the upcoming playoffs.

The mayor of Memphis also cheered on the team in the interview and said he would watch the game at home and cheer on the Grizzlies.

Memphis citizens also took to social media to cheer on the team.

"Rush, Grizzly!"

"We've made history, and we'll continue to make history!"

'I'll go live and watch the game and cheer for the team.'

……

But there are also fans who are very negative.

"Since 1996, the Grizzlies have made the playoffs three times with a 0-12 record. When it comes to the playoffs, we always get a win! ”

"We don't have playoff experience, which makes it difficult for the team to go further."

"The playoffs aren't regular season, and the Jazz are strong."

……

To boost the team's morale, Jerry? Mr. West arranged for Li Lei to be interviewed on the training open day.

Li Lei said in an interview: "At the beginning of the season, I said that our goal was the playoffs, and we succeeded. Now, our playoff goal is the next round and we're going to make it too. ”

In the interview, Li Lei seemed full of confidence.

One reporter said: "But the Grizzlies have never made it to the second round. ”

Li Lei smiled: "It's different now." ”

Reporter: "What's the difference?" ”

Li Lei: "The current Grizzly Bears, with me!" That's what I'm here to do. ”

The reporter was stunned, and then it became lively, and a group of reporters exchanged heads and ears, which seemed very noisy.

There was a stirring at the scene.

Because Li Lei's words are too domineering!

Li Lei himself may not have noticed that he is becoming more and more confident now, and he is gradually becoming a little domineering.

"That's right, I'm here to turn the tide!"

"That's right, I'm here to make history!"

"The Grizzlies couldn't do it because they didn't have me. But now, with me, it's possible! ”

Under the maintenance of the staff, the scene gradually quieted down.

The reporter continued to ask: "Some fans feel that the Grizzlies are too young and lack playoff experience, what do you think about this?" ”

The corners of Li Lei's mouth rose slightly: "It seems that he needs to watch our games more and understand my teammates more." ”

The reporter was a little confused.

Without waiting for them to continue to ask questions, Li Lei said on his own.

"Tyronn, 1999-2000, 2000-2001 championship."

"Darko, 2003-2004 overall champion."

"Eddie, 2004-2005 overall champion."

"I, the champion of the 2004-2005 season and the 2005-2006 season, two consecutive FMVP!"

"Who else has more playoff experience than the team in Miami?"

Everyone: "......"

Also, fans just think about the Grizzlies being young, but forget that they have as many as 4 championship members, and they have a total of 6 championship rings.

This amount is already top in the NBA.

After all, there are more than 400 players in the NBA, and only 15 can get a championship ring every year, and the chance is 1 in 30.

As the interview progressed, the fans' doubts were broken by Li Lei one by one, and they were full of confidence.

What's more, the confidence of the Grizzlies players has also risen.

The last two days, old Jones, Tyron? Lew plays the role of a veteran and provides psychological counseling to young players.

"The playoffs are no different from the regular season, they're all 48 minutes, they're all four quarters, there's nothing to worry about."

"Shaq said: you should eat, you should drink, you should go to the nightclub and continue to go, how you usually live, how you live now, don't make changes because of the playoffs, that will disrupt the biological clock."

Still, there are some young players who can be nervous.

For example, Guy and Zhu Fangyu, who played in the playoffs for the first time.

The two came to Li Lei to ask for experience.

Li Lei slapped Zhu Fangyu's head and face directly: "Breath? ”

"I've played the Olympics and the World Championships, and the playoffs are a fart!"

"Anyway, you've been against James and Anthony, and you're still afraid of other guys?"

Zhu Fangyu smiled embarrassedly: Hey, hey, hey!

That's right, who did he Lao Zhu instigate, just do it!

For Guy, Li Lei can't persuade him like this.

"The playoffs, it's important, but it's not that important."

"It's just the first step for a star. The stars who have proven themselves here are the real stars. ”

"Well, it's not worth mentioning just a playoff game. Your goal should be the Division Finals, the Grand Finals, or even the overall championship. ”

"The minimum goal I'll give you, the divisional finals!"

"I believe in you, and you have to believe in yourself!"

Minimum Target ...... Divisional Finals.

If someone else said this, Guy could spray him in the face.

After all, many stars never touch the floor of a divisional final in their lifetime.

But this is what Li Lei said...... He certainly has that qualification.

Looking back on Li Lei's career:

Rookie season, Eastern Conference Finals.

Sophomore, overall winner.

Third grade, overall champion.

……

That's right, the worst of Li Lei's career also reached the division finals.

In short, under the psychological counseling of a group of championship members, the Grizzlies gradually built up their confidence.

In professional sports, self-confidence is important.
