91-80, the Grizzlies' five-game winning streak came easily, Morrow came off the bench to score a game-high 26 points, and the Grizzlies easily improved their record to 18-3.

Nothing special happened to play the Hornets, and the morning after the Hornets, the Grizzlies left for Oklahoma City to challenge the Thunder, who are currently fourth in the West, ahead of the Trail Blazers and Nuggets.

On the way to Oklahoma City, Sun Ce took a look at the current record ranking and found that the Northwest Division stood up!

At present, the Lakers are in the top eight in the West, with four teams in the Southwest Division, three teams in the Northwest Division, and only the Lakers in the bustling and rich Pacific Division ranked in the top eight in the West.

When he arrived at the hotel in Oklahoma City, Sun Ce came to the hotel's indoor court to practice shooting.

Oklahoma City is boring, it's the center of the U.S. Air Force, and it's an extremely underdeveloped city, so there's not much to do.

The urbanization of Memphis is average enough, and Oklahoma City is even more so, with an area of more than 700 square kilometers and a permanent population of about 700,000; Oklahoma City is more than twice the size of Memphis and has a population of less than 500,000......

Sun Ce didn't know what kind of entertainment the players here usually had, and sighed that it was no wonder that there were no nightclub rumors when Harden was in Oklahoma City.

There's simply nothing to play with.

Originally, Sun Ce thought that he could catch up with Harden or Westbrook, but as for Durant, Sun Ce felt that Durant was inexplicably hostile to him, and he guessed that it was probably the World Championships.

But the Thunder are on the road in a row, have one more game tonight, play the Mavericks, and tomorrow in Oklahoma City, they will face their Grizzlies.

Sun Ce can only be a lonely trainer, and his teammates are lying in the hotel......

……

On the evening of the 12th, Sun Ce and his teammates entered the court after warming up.

Looking at the group of young talents opposite, Sun Ce was a little stressed.

Last night, the Thunder challenged the Mavericks away, 107-106, and Durant beat the Mavericks.

Westbrook had a triple-double of 15 points, 10 rebounds and 14 assists, and Ibaka made a key block for Yao Ming......

In just ten days, the Thunder team seems to have become stronger again!

The Grizzlies are currently 18-3 and second in the league behind the Spurs, who are also 19-3.

The Thunder are now 14-9 in 23 games, and since losing to the Grizzlies on the last day of last month, the Thunder have won five in a row and jumped from eighth to fourth in the West.

Sun Ce, on his side, watched the live broadcast of the Thunder and Mavericks last night, and really felt that this team composed of contemporaries was getting better and better.

Sun Ce remembered that Nowitzki had not fully integrated into the Mavericks' system until the end of the season, and when the first round of the playoffs this season was originally in time and space, public opinion thought that the Mavericks were going to be killed by the Trail Blazers, until they defeated the Trail Blazers, Noviski was truly integrated, and then started an invincible playoff journey.

But with Yao Ming, Nowitzki is not under so much pressure, and Yao Ming can chisel through all the centers in less than 24 minutes of physical strength, so that Nowitzki can integrate into the team more easily.

Although the Thunder defeated the Mavericks who had not yet run in to their peak state, it was also the Mavericks with the strongest twin towers, and no matter how good the Mavericks were, they were also the team that could win at least 555 percent, and the Thunder killed the Mavericks in the last game of the 5-game trip...... This is definitely a very big confidence boost for the Thunder players!

However, for the Thunder team to become stronger, Sun Ce only felt the pressure, and did not feel much surprise, because he knew that when Harden grew up next season, the Thunder team would become a Finals-level team.

Unlike others, the Thunder have improved again this year, to the surprise of most people.

There are lessons from the Timberwolves and Kings that failed to hoard talent, and many people are not optimistic about the Thunder's practice of hoarding talent.

I didn't expect the Thunder team to really succeed, Harden's talent, in the second year, many people saw it, but I didn't expect Harden to be really willing to play the bench honestly, and he is the seventh man, Jeff Green is the sixth man, and Jeff Green is also willing to play the sixth man, let Durant, Westbrook, and Ibaka serve as the core......

What is the biggest problem for teams with too much talent?

The Timberwolves' bunch of point guards even had intra-team training fights, but the Thunder didn't, and the Thunder team played out!

Compared with the current explosive state of the Thunder team, Sun Ce is a little disappointed now that Harden didn't come over to chat, when he used to play here, Harden would come to the away team's training ground before the game.

What Sun Ce didn't know was that Harden also wanted to go over and talk to Sun Ce and ask how to become popular.

However, Harden looked at Durant...... Or is the mood of the eldest brother important......

At 6:58, the referee signaled for both teams to start.

Sun Ce came to the technology table, and Durant also came to the technology table, and the two looked at each other and looked at each other with appreciative eyes.

But in addition to Durant's appreciation, there is also deep jealousy.

The Grizzlies played the Rockets, Sun Ce scored 10 points in a single quarter in the final quarter, and Black Widow's Twitter was reposted. Touting Sun Ce's article......

Sun Ce thinks this is normal, Black Widow often retweeted it when he played a good performance in the past, Scarlett Johansson is already the most famous overlord fan in Hollywood, Sun Ce didn't take this matter to heart.

But Durant cares!

Just when Durant looked at Sun Ce with a mixture of admiration and jealousy, he suddenly saw Sun Ce put his hand into the neckline of his jersey and took out a goggle...... Then he tucked it back in and took out the hand strap......

"Watts?"

Looking at Sun Ce, who was full of commotion, Durant really wanted to open Sun Ce's jersey to take a look, how did he stuff it in?

……

There are times when the state is excellent, and there are times when the state is very bad.

Whether the state is good or not, the most intuitive display lies in whether the ball that should be thrown can be thrown!

Just like today's Thunder team, all the balls that should be scored were thrown, and what should not be scored, Durant also relied on his personal ability to throw.

On the other hand, the Grizzlies, since the last game against the Hornets, have shown a decline in form, and most of the last game, many of the goals that should have been scored were not scored, and the Hornets only scored 91 points...... If it weren't for Morrow's 26 points, a win might not be a big problem, but the score might have been outrageously low.

Today, the Grizzlies' offensive state continues to be sluggish, and the more this is the case, the more the Grizzlies have to defend, but after the Thunder entered December, they are in very good shape, and the Thunder defense is not bad!

In today's game, in the first three quarters of the Grizzlies, except for Paul George, who came off the bench, 2 of 3, and Jordan Jr., no other team had a shooting rate of more than 4 percent!

With such a poor shooting performance, the Grizzlies trailed the Thunder by 20 points at 51-71 after three quarters.

Coach Hollins saw that there was no sign of a comeback, and directly replaced the main starters to rest, so that the pure bench lineup of Jason Williams, Morrow, Paul George, Yi Jianlian, and Jordan Jr. went up, and there was a chance to rely on the impact of the substitute players to rush in waves, but they couldn't rush down.

The Thunder still used the lineup of Harden, Sefrosa, Durant, Ibaka, and Muhammad to play the final quarter, and did not dare to underestimate the Grizzlies' rotation lineup.

The Grizzlies, Rockets, Mavericks, Spurs, and the bench of the four King Kongs in the Southwest Division, the Thunder are all envious, jealous and hateful.

In order to ensure that they can win the game, the Thunder's garbage time is not to be taken lightly.

……

Sun Ce sat on the bench and watched Jason Williams and Harden face each other, but his attention was not on the game.

According to his understanding of Coach Hollins, this coach is very ruthless, saying that if he doesn't change the main force, he won't change it, no, he will give up the game directly and prepare for the future game.

Sun Ce played 25 minutes in the third quarter, made only 3 of 11 shots, and got 10 points, 7 rebounds and 3 assists.

Sun Ce now has a sense of crisis!

Today's game made him feel very wrong, and it seemed that the team's offensive state had collapsed all at once...... Of course, it's not good, but because their offense isn't good in the first place, the others don't seem to feel it.

But Sun Ce feels it now, it seems that his team has entered the state too early!

The Grizzlies have been in good shape in the first 20 games, except for the poor game against the Kings, and the Grizzlies have been in good shape in the other 19 games, including two losses to the Spurs.

This is a bit like Sun Ce's impression of the Pacers, the Pacers had a season, before January, the record was better than the Spurs team that had set the best halfway record in history, but since January, the Pacers' state has collapsed inexplicably, and after the All-Star weekend, it is an avalanche......

Sun Ce feels that the situation of his own team is a little similar to the Pacers team in his impression! It's all about the state coming too early!

Sun Ce didn't think it was too much, he reviewed the reasons for the bad offense in these two games, both of which were outside shots at the beginning of the season, and suddenly felt cold at a certain point in time, and the opponent shrank when he saw that he couldn't shoot outside......

The reason for this, Sun Ce thinks it is physical strength!

It's too hard!

The pursuit of victory is the nature of professional athletes, and since the beginning of the game, the Grizzlies have had a chance to win other games, except for the 11-game winning streak and losing to the Kings in a very bad state, and also losing two games to the Spurs.

However, starting from the defeat of the Thunder in the third quarter on November 30, the Grizzlies have three games that are clocked out in the third quarter, and the mentality is relaxed all of a sudden, and it is okay to play the Rockets, relying on Yi Jianlian's outbreak and Sun Ce's three goals at the beginning of the last quarter and winning, but it is not easy to start the offense when the Hornets are played later!

It's mainly about the fitness of the whole team!
