1089.Excited Pair (Part 3)
At the beginning of the first game of the new season, Sun Ce felt that his defensive pressure had become smaller, Klay Thompson, Paul George's progress was very surprising, Larry Sanders could not be compared with Jordan Jr., but the defense of Larry Sanders was much stronger, and Larry Sanders was not as good as Jordan Jr., but Sun Ce's own physical fitness improved, defensive rebounding was better, with Mr. Tony, when rotating the lineup, the team's defense was much stronger than last season.
Even if Gasol Jr. isn't there, the Grizzlies have a top-five defense in the league.
This allows Sun Ce to put more physical energy into the offensive end, and the so-called input, that is, throwing it!
If you defend against Paul George or Klay Thompson, Sun Ce will pass, otherwise he will throw it himself, and if he has the opportunity, he will burst in, and if he doesn't, he will keep throwing it, and let Larry Sanders rush to grab the offensive rebound.
Although this move makes the offense very simple, like it has become the 00-01 season version of the 76ers' style of play, it is better to say that Sun Ce plays a point guard, it is better to say that he is a prodigal scoring guard.
But this at least ensures the basic offense of the Grizzlies, if you play according to the conventional routine, there is a high probability that it will eventually evolve into Mr. Tony's main offense, and then even the basic offense cannot be guaranteed.
This style of play, at least when Paul was not on the Lakers' side, formed a confrontation situation with the Lakers team that Kobe Bryant began to exert his strength, and did not let the other party open up the point difference!
At 9:06 of the second quarter, 38-45, the Grizzlies still trailed by seven points.
During this time, Bryant scored 6 points and helped the Lakers maintain a score difference of more than 5 points under such a strong defense of such an opponent.
Sun Ce had already played well, with 7 points and 1 assist, Klay Thompson scored a 3-pointer, and Larry Sanders grabbed an offensive rebound and threw it to Paul George, who caused the opponent to foul and hit both free throws to make a 12-9 run.
The Grizzlies replaced Tony Allen, Paul George, and Larry Sanders, who had played for a long time, and replaced Battier, Yi Jianlian, and Gasol Jr. for the last three minutes of the first half.
After these three teammates came up, Sun Ce's offensive pressure was reduced, Sun Ce handed the ball to Gasol Jr. to respond in a high position, Battier opened up the space, Klay Thompson used his ability to run without the ball after playing for a year and training for a summer to contain the defense, Sun Ce and Yi Jianlian's cutting + off-ball blocking and pick-and-shoot style improved the offensive firepower a lot.
However, after Paul came up on the Lakers' side, the offense has improved significantly.
In the last 3 minutes, the two teams played a 7-7 scoreline.
At halftime, the Grizzlies still trailed the Lakers by 7 points at 45-52 and went into halftime.
Sun Ce played 21 minutes in the half, shooting 8 of 20, including 4 of 9 three-pointers, plus 4 of 6 free throws, scoring 24 points, 6 boards, 2 assists, 3 blocks and 1 steal, and his performance couldn't have been better.
However, Bryant on the opposite side made 8 of 14 shots, 4 of 7 three-pointers, and 3 of 4 free throws to score 23 points!
Although Kobe Bryant is 1 point less, Kobe Bryant has 6 fewer shots!
That's a big difference!
However, Sun Ce was shocked here, Kobe Bryant on the opposite side was calm on the surface, but his heart was about to explode, and he really wanted to take the ball and do it!
He played so efficiently that the team's half-time score was almost less than 50 points!
But no...... He knows that to be able to play with such efficiency is to think of himself as a role player pitcher, and if he does it with the ball, he will have no problem being in good shape tonight, but when he is in average form, he will have to go back to the old ways.
lost the Western Conference Finals for the first time last season, watched Sun Ce win the championship, and saw Sun Ce's crazy progress in a summer...... Kobe Bryant wants to win it back!
Now that he has a point guard like Paul as his teammate for the first time in his career, Bryant is determined to be a pure killer rather than a man who fights against the opposing team.
It's got to be a habit...... has endured the grief of Odom and Big Gasol being traded, and now, there is nothing that cannot be changed!
……
Back in the locker room, Sun Ce stood in front of the bathroom, he hadn't been here for a few months, and he felt so excited.
It's so exciting to be with such a Kobe Bryant.
It's just that...... After Kobe gave up putting his physical strength into the defensive end, it was no problem to throw more than 30 times a game, but he couldn't do it, he was almost at the limit.
In addition to monsters such as Kobe and Iverson, even if they are as strong as James, after taking more than 20 shots in a game, if they continue to shoot, it can be clearly seen that their physical strength is declining, and they must ensure that they shoot 20 times efficiently in the game, not as simple as 20 shots.
The judgment of a superstar like O'Neal who can win the scoring title is whether he can guarantee efficiency 15 shots in a game, and Maddie's division of whether he has not been at his peak is whether he can complete 20 shots.
Although Kobe Bryant didn't say a word in the first half, Sun Ce knew that the other party fought tonight, and he wanted to leave them with a dim night of wearing rings.
Sun Ce didn't want the other party to succeed!
Also, he has to score more than Kobe!
Sun Ce opened the system space, Jordan card, S-level point guard card...... Just these two cards, Jordan card, he doesn't want to use it in the regular season, using the S-level point guard card, it's a gamble, it may be a good draw, it may not be so suitable.
After a little struggle, Sun Ce decided to bet!
Aiming to defend the title this year, the Spurs are likely to be at their peak; After the Lakers ran in for a season, Paul guaranteed the lower limit, and Kobe Bryant raised the ceiling; The Heat, for their part, look like they're going to dominate the East, and the Mavericks have a possible last-ditch stand...... You'll have to leave more powerful cards for the playoffs.
It's decided, and my mind moves......
"Host uses S-rank point guard random player star experience card ......"
In front of Sun Ce, there were many moving pictures of players on the system screen, marking the season rotation to appear at the front.
"16-17 version of the tortoise? 82-83 version of the magician? 95-96 Peyton ......"
Just when Sun Ce was seeing which seasons of stars were S-level performances, 3 seconds passed, the rotating GIF stopped, and Sun Ce's eyes widened!
"Congratulations to the host for randomly obtaining the Stephen Curry 14-15 version of the Star Experience Card, which has been used."
"Stephen Curry 14-15 Edition, Ability Evaluation S, Offensive S+, Defense B, Three-Point S+, Mid-range Shot S-, Layup A+, Speed A+, Power A...... Characteristic Transformation Skill: Wave Casting Formation Level 5. ”
