On June 19, 2012, Game 3 of the Finals between the Grizzlies and the 76ers arrived.

The style of the finals has gone astray, and the topics discussed are becoming more and more distant from the competition itself.

The controversy over Sun Ce and the infighting about the 76ers occupy the main sections of major forums.

By this morning, there were a lot of rumors popping up again.

The Los Angeles Times, the media with a better relationship with the Clippers, broke the news that the Lakers are interested in Howard, willing to send Pau Gasol, Odom and Artest to trade Howard, and are willing to eat the excess contract of the 76ers bench.

The Lakers want to form a new core combination of Howard and Paul to replace Kobe Bryant, a veteran who is about to turn 34.

But Sports Illustrated, a media outlet with a better relationship with the Lakers, broke the news that the Lakers are more interested in Iguodala than Howard, and are equally willing to pay Gasol, and can even send Odom over.

At the same time, Sports Illustrated broke the news that the Warriors are eager to get Howard and are willing to send the inside combination of Tabit and David Lee, and revealed that the Warriors' desire for a superstar is not something that an All-Star player like David Lee can compare.

The Miami Times broke the news that the Heat are willing to send three first-rounders, Haslem, and Mike Miller to trade Howard to form a Big Four combination.

The Los Angeles Globe, which has always been known for being unreliable, also broke the news that the Knicks wanted to trade Bynum for Howard or Studemire for Iguodala......

Wave after wave of trade rumors came out, and people didn't think it was strange, because Howard's trade value was so high, only Sun Ce knew that Howard would have a decline in explosiveness and explosive confrontation due to the treatment of his back injury this summer, which would lead to a serious decline in the dominance of the defensive end, and the level of the best defensive player directly fell to the general defense of an ordinary jumping man.

But others don't know Howard's future, there are only three players with the highest trade value in the league today, James who has the first actual trade value, and Sun Ce, who has the highest comprehensive trade value, is regarded as Howard who can be exchanged for Sun Ce or James alone.

When there's infighting with the 76ers, and it's around Howard, no one can be surprised that there are so many trade rumors...... Except for these teams that are in the midst of rumors.

Before they could figure out why a team that was playing in the Finals could have such a level of infighting, and before they could figure out what kind of player Howard was, trade rumors had already come out before they could discuss whether to trade or not......

Moreover, no one linked this matter to the Grizzlies, let alone Sun Ce, and they couldn't beat it.

And the chief consultant of a certain team in the Bay Area, who is really concerned about this matter, is going to scold the street again - what do you mean that they only want superstars and can't look down on an all-star? Howard just scolded Iguodala with something similar!

……

Sun Ce took the time to read the news that the teams were interested in Howard or Iguodala who kept breaking the news, in addition to a few media outlets secretly contacted by their agency, there were actually media who followed the trend to make up stories.

However, Sun Ce did not continue to focus on this matter, concentrating on preparing for the battle.

He just wanted to muddy the waters, which was inspired by the operation of the logo man.

It doesn't matter if it succeeds or not, just mess up the situation.

The future is hard to predict, and winning the championship now is all that matters.

The Grizzlies refused to be interviewed, mainly because they didn't want to answer about the 76ers, and the current situation was just right...... That's a recipe for trouble.

Everyone else is fine, but Coach Hollins is mainly worried about something going on with an unnamed No. 3 player on the team.

This guy has to be on guard every day.

After the morning preparation, he rested for the afternoon, had a meal with his teammates at 4:30 in the evening, warmed up at 5 o'clock, and at 7:10 in the evening, Sun Ce and his teammates entered the stadium in the center of Vachovia.

When Sun Ce, as the third in the starting lineup, entered the court for the second time after Nash, he ushered in overwhelming boos.

The 76ers are in the Finals for the first time in 11 years, and Iverson, who spent a season in Turkey, is back to watch, but they seem to be about to suffer the same tragic end as in 2001.

The point is that their 76ers were also beaten to infighting by the Grizzlies!

Sun Ce had already been mentally prepared, and after entering the court, listening to the boos, he spread out his left hand, and put two earplugs in his palm, which were stuffed into two ears respectively.

Seeing this picture, Sun Ce's teammates were speechless...... Doing things again!

The fans at the scene saw this picture explode on the spot, shouting and boosing endlessly.

At this time, the referee came over to warn Sun Ce, asked Sun Ce to take off the earbuds, and then took them away.

Sun Ce watched regretfully as the referee handed over the earbuds to the technical table and looked around the scene.

A big city is a big city, and when the finals were played in Memphis, in addition to the players who could be called superstars, only Scarlett Johansson and the legendary singer Aretha Franklin, who was born in Memphis, did not have too many A-list stars.

But here in Philadelphia, there are a lot of Hollywood superstars and celebrities in New York, and the gap is still very big.

However, Sun Ce is not envious, because not necessarily these people are all coming to see the 76ers, no, after he entered, Lily Collins, Scarlett Johansson, and Zu Ge waved at Sun Ce to let him pass.

Coming to the sideline area opposite the technical table, Sun Ce saw a large number of actors from Avengers 1.

Sun Ce said in surprise: "Team America, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Loki, Hawkeye, Black Widow...... Wow, Scarlett, you've called all the superheroes and villains of Avengers 1! ”

After a long break after the second round, Sun Ce also went to see the Avengers 1 with Zu Ge.

"I heard that you like the Avengers we played together, so I invited them to come along, originally to watch the game at your home stadium in Memphis, but the timing is incompatible, and I want to gather everyone together to cheer you on." Scarlett Johansson answered.

Sun Ce naturally knew what it meant, didn't everyone have time if he went to Memphis...... It didn't matter, Sun Ce and Robert Downey Jr. and others exchanged pleasantries, there was not much to talk about, hugging or shaking hands and saying some words of blessing to each other.

In addition to the actors who played several superheroes in Avengers 1, there were some other Hollywood stars, some who supported Sun Ce, and those who came to rub the camera, all came to shake hands and hug Sun Ce.

There are also a lot of players, in addition to Iverson, there are Kobe, Maddy, and the banana boat brothers.

When Sun Ce took the initiative to go up to say hello, Kobe ignored Sun Ce's hand that stretched out to high-five, turned his head and chatted with Maddie, Maddie shrugged his shoulders helplessly at Sun Ce, it was better to be a James, and stretched out his hand behind Kobe to high-five Sun Ce, Kobe raised his head and watched the two of them high-five him on his head, swearing in his heart......

The people from the national team didn't come, that is, Yao Ming didn't come, but Yao Ming called Sun Ce at noon, and when they got the match point for the Grizzlies, Yao Ming would take his national team teammates to watch the next game, and most of the teammates had been selected by then, and they would witness Sun Ce and Yi Jianlian win the NBA championship.

When he heard Yao Ming's words, Sun Ce felt that his emotions became even higher, and at the same time, he was under some extra pressure, and he couldn't lose face in front of his teammates in the national team!

After the players on the 76ers side came out, they saw Sun Ce mixing like a fish in water among a group of celebrities, some were envious, some were ignored, and some were jealous.

But there is no way, Sun Ce is now in full swing, especially after having the title of superstar, his fame has soared, and many celebrities want to rub his popularity.

What else can be done but envy, jealousy, and hatred?

After saying hello here, Sun Ce returned to his bench and noticed that on the other side, Iguodala and Howard were far apart, sitting at opposite ends of the bench......

……

The coaches of the two teams made the final arrangements before the game, and at 7:28, the referee signaled for both teams to start the game.

Sun Ce put on his equipment and wiped some magnesium powder, during which he met Evans, who had a solemn face, did not communicate, and went on their own games.

Sun Ce came to the center circle, and his teammates who played with him were still Nash, Paul George, Randolph, and Gasol Jr.

Howard also came to the center circle, and the 76ers started unchanged, with Evans, Holiday and Iguodala and Thaddeus Young starting lineups.

After the opposing players came up, Sun Ce obviously felt that the opposing players seemed to be fighting tonight!

Howard, in particular, has no smile on his face, but it's not the frustration of not having the fighting spirit, there is a feeling of gritting his teeth to prove something.

Sun Ce was secretly glad that their Grizzlies were not careless and concentrated on preparing for the game.

It's not that if there is a conflict on the other side, it will become easy to deal with, and the mourning soldiers will sometimes burst out with extraordinarily strong strength!

At half past seven, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game and threw the ball into the air, Sun Ce was ready to retreat, but Howard jumped early and dialed the ball to the back, the referee blew the whistle, and Howard violated! Grizzlies throw-in!

Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, the beast was too excited, but this was a good thing for their grizzly team!

Howard snorted and retreated into his own half, Sun Ce came to the outside of the halfway line, received the ball from the referee and sent it to Nash, and the Grizzlies attacked first.

After Sun Ce finished serving, he ran directly to the low post on the right side of the three-second zone and encountered Iguodala's fierce defense!

Sure enough, just as Sun Ce thought before jumping the ball, the opponent did not defend well because of infighting, but defended more fiercely, and Howard, who switched to Randolph, was also struggling to fight with Randolph.

You know, Randolph has opened up to the middle distance of the bottom line, and Howard still presses it up and goes directly to the strength!

Seeing this, Nash beckoned Sun Ce to come out to block the demolition, Sun Ce ran out to help Nash block Evans, and Nash broke through by blocking and dismantling.

Sun Ce immediately turned around and cut in after blocking and dismantling Nash, Iguodala switched to Nash, Evans failed to switch to Sun Ce in front of him at the first time, and was cut in by Sun Ce! Nash's pass under the basket came in time, Sun Ce just stepped into the free throw line, and Nash's ball just got into place.

Sun Ce stepped out of the reasonable collision area in one step, and he had to buckle the jump ...... Howard rushed in!

Fortunately, Sun Ce reacted quickly enough, pulled the ball down with his big hand, and smashed it under the crotch of Howard, who rushed in and jumped up, Randolph received the ball on the baseline, but Evans also changed his defense.

Tonight's 76ers players are no worse than the last game, and there is a sense of desperateness, Evans went up and stuck to Randolph, Randolph slammed into Evans sideways, and directly knocked Evans back two steps back and sat on the floor, the referee did not blow the whistle, Randolph turned around and shot back in the bottom line......

Evans's ferocious defense still affected the rhythm of Randolph's back-to-back turnaround jumper, and Randolph missed the baseline shot!

Howard had Sun Ce behind his back to collect the defensive rebound.

Sun Ce retreated immediately after Howard landed, and the opponent's defense was a bit fierce!

Offense and defense were exchanged, Howard passed the ball to Evans, and the 76ers continued to play positional battles at a tight pace.

The Grizzlies are a very disciplined team, and they were not careless, but after feeling the fierce defense of the opponent just now, Sun Ce and others were more focused and played defense!

Nash seems to be used to working hard, and he doesn't care about any continuity, this round of the series is physically enough, the defensive end should fight hard, the effect is not considered, and when the defense is not on the ball, it should be confrontation.

Holiday is a standing pile-type catch-and-shoot pitcher, his running ability is not good, and the movement on the offensive end is basically cut-in, but because Howard can't open up space, he has few opportunities to cut, and he has to be afraid of Sun Ce's help defense, so he basically stands on the outside, unless he is given the ball to single, but it is definitely impossible to give him a single at the beginning.

So, Nash's defense works damn good!

Evans advanced to the front court and broke through to attract Sun Ce to the pinch and then split the ball to Iguodala, who received the ball and shot a two-point shot...... Paul George pounced on the defense, Iguodala didn't make a jumper, Gasol Jr. carried the rushing Howard, and Sun Ce collected the defensive rebound.

The game started with Iron and Blood Defending mode from the start.

As a result of playing in the East, the referee's blowing scale seems to be looser, and the confrontation has become more intense, relatively speaking, the Grizzlies did not take advantage of the start! Nash, in particular, has a significantly lower probability of getting fouls than in the previous two games.

Fortunately, the Grizzlies' defense was also very good, although the referee blew the penalty in favor of the 76ers, but in the second half of the first quarter, after Nash went down to rest, Tony Allen and Battier came up, the Grizzlies strengthened their defense, once limited the opponent to 4 minutes without scoring in the athletic battle, and chased back the 4 points that fell behind in the first half of the quarter.

At the end of the first quarter, the Grizzlies and 76ers were tied 17-16!

With this score, Sun Ce, who played full in the first quarter, felt his scalp tingle! This is the first section!

Moreover, Sun Ce also found a big problem - if the opponent wins this game, it will be a big problem!

No matter how big the contradiction is, it can be covered up by winning!
