: Seven hundred and eighty. Have to fight for the first!

After arriving in Miami, the Grizzlies ate lunch and immediately started preparing for the game and the Heat's game in the afternoon. From the coaching staff to the players and the fans behind them, they did not want to suffer a losing streak.
If there is no losing streak throughout the season, there is no doubt a great achievement. No one is willing to give up. If it is still in the middle and middle of the season, this kind of thing is not easy to control, they will not have this kind of obsession, and now it is left. 14 games, of course I have to fight hard.
The Grizzlies are working hard to prepare for something, and something has happened in the league.
Some of the team’s veteran buyouts have exploded intensively during this period.
Most of these veterans are in the weak team. They have a certain strength and do not want to stay to waste their last career. They can’t play for a few years. If they stay in the bad team for a month, they will have one less chance to play in the playoffs. Leaving; the team did not put him in the future plan and want to reduce the payout through the agreement to buy out, can save money.
Bobcats veteran center Joel Pulzbila reached an agreement with the team, completely abandoning the player option of the last year of the 6-year 44 million US dollar contract, which is 8.2 million US dollars next season, and took the remaining 100 of this season. After tens of thousands of dollars to buy out the fee, he got a free body and joined the Heat team in desperate need of a center.
This news does not matter to the Grizzlies who are preparing for the game with the Heat. It is not an important thing. A garbage contract center with an average of 1.8 points and 4.4 rebounds with a salary of more than 7 million is used by the Heat. Come to press the bench, it seems that his team has a center, mainly because Haslem suffered a serious injury before the All-Star weekend, can not play in the regular season, is expected to come back in mid-April, the Heat have always wanted to find a The center came to support the bench.
What interested Sun Ce was another buyout.
On the Pistons, Hamilton gave up the rest of the salary this season, the salary of the original $12.5 million next season also gave up $3.5 million, and agreed that the Pistons will postpone the remaining salary of $9 million next season by 3 years. From the beginning of the 11-12 season to the 13-14 season, a buyout agreement was reached for $3 million a year.
The things that both the Hamilton and the Pistons want to buy out have already spread. The Pistons have been selling Hamilton before the trade deadline of this season, but they cannot sell it. No team is willing to give Hamilton a $12.5 million next season. Pay for the salary.
But the Pistons wanted to save money, Hamilton wanted to leave, and the agreement buyout became the only way. The Pistons paid a little less salary and Hamilton took less money. Both parties were interested, and finally reached a buyout agreement at noon today.
But after the buyout, Hamilton did not join the Bulls as he saw in Sun Ce’s news and his own impression, but quickly reached an agreement with the Suns!
At the same time, after the All-Star weekend, a buyout agreement was reached with the Jazz. Turkish center Memet Oku, who has been recovering from injury, announced that he will join the Suns with a 1+1 contract!
After the afternoon training, Sun Ce returned to the hotel to brush news about several buyouts today. He knew these things during the afternoon training session. He was very interested in how there could be such a big change.
Although he knew that he had come to this world, he had already made countless changes, but every change he wanted to understand why, if he could understand it, he would not understand it.
Checking the news, Sun Ce learned that Hamilton had not played for the Pistons a week ago and had been discussing buyouts. When a buyout agreement was reached today at noon, Hamilton had already appeared in Phoenix and participated in Nash in the afternoon. A party organized for him and Okur joining.
At 4:30 in the afternoon, a video of Hamilton’s interview was posted on the official website of the Ali Sunya Daily and received many reposts.
Hamilton's joining the Suns will inevitably affect the Western Conference playoff seats. The Suns are currently ninth in the West. The Rockets are two wins away from the eighth. There are more than a dozen games left. Everything is unknown.
The 33-year-old Hamilton's data has dropped significantly compared to 18.1 points and 4.4 assists per game last season. So far this season, he only has 13 points and 2.6 assists per game, but to a large extent, the Pistons are unwilling. Give him too much shooting power, playing time, want to give the shooting power to their rookie center Monroe, and do not put him in the future plan, he himself also wants to leave.
Hamilton still has some strength, maybe not as strong as 18 points per game last year, but certainly not so much. His efforts and self-discipline are notorious, especially the kind he likes. Running guard.
With the addition of Hamilton, the Suns have another strong aid in the battle for the eighth in the West.
At this stage, the fans and the media are most concerned about, not MVP, best rookie, etc., but the competition for seats and rankings in the playoffs, so Hamilton, a scorer who should also have 15 points per game, joins the Suns. Such a running team attracted wide attention.
Hamilton said in an interview: "I want to play in the playoffs with Steve, Vince, Grant, and Memet. This is a very exciting thing for me. I can meet a group of old friends at the end of my career. Working together to make the playoffs and create miracles is undoubtedly the best end of my career for me."
For this reason, Sun Ce couldn't resist listening. Hamilton's words came into their hearts as NBA players.
Playing basketball, aside from money, championship and honor, the more important thing is happiness.
Basketball is basketball, and the happiness of men is sometimes simpler than imagined.
Hamilton is not short of money. Counting the $9 million spent by the Pistons for a three-year delay, he has earned more than $100 million in his career. He is only 33 years old and a pitcher. He should still be able to play for two or three years. The middle class doesn't matter.
There is also the champion Hamilton.
Sun Ce himself was thinking, if one day, he was more than 30, the decline in physical quality led to a decline in ability, and there is a champion in hand, and the money was made enough, he also wanted to work with Curry, Harden, and Gasol Seoul, Jordan Jr., and Yi Jianlian formed an elderly army to play a wave of playoffs.
As a player, he can understand Hamilton's psychology.
On the side of Okur, Sun Ce learned from the news that Okur returned to the Jazz after playing the World Championships, and suffered a back injury. He came back in December and played a dozen games. Three points are okay, but Sloan and Deron are in trouble. After resigning, he didn't have the mentality to continue playing. He ran to recuperate. Later, Sloan was traded by the Jazz to the Bulls, and Deron left... He simply stopped. Before the trade deadline, the Jazz failed to leave the rest. The contract for $10.5 million was sent off next year, so he made an agreement with him, and $8 million was bought out of the contract for next season. Okur also gave up more than 3 million in salary for the remaining two months of the season and got Free body.
Okur was already ready to join the Suns. After buying out, he has been working with the Suns in Phoenix to receive back injury treatment from the Suns. Now it is time to come back. Hamilton joined and he also accepted the Suns. 1+1 base salary contract.
Sun Ce looked at the ranking of the Western Conference record. The Suns played 68 games, 29 wins and 27 losses, ranking ninth in the West. The Rockets also played 68 games, 31 wins and 25 losses, the gap is particularly small...
The Suns are now a group of veteran veterans in the playoffs. They are in good health. Not to mention, the team has entered the playoffs at the end of the season and has more experience.
Which team will eventually win the last playoff spot in the West, Sun Ce really looked forward to it.
Because the Grizzlies are competing for the first in the West, it is natural to pay great attention to which team is the eighth.
If he can play against Na in the playoffs, Sun Ce will be very excited.
Sun Ce is very concerned about this matter. His teammates and coaching staff are also very concerned about this matter. Playing the sun of the veteran, it is necessary to grind and consume the opponent's physical strength...relatively speaking, it is better for them s Choice!
...
That night, San Antonio, the Spurs ushered in a game with the Rockets.
Originally, the Spurs should take a rest again tonight.
Up to now, the Spurs have played 69 games, 56 wins and 13 losses. Recently, they are taking a rest regardless of who their opponents are. They still have a four-game winning streak. After losing to the Lakers, they only lost one game. Spurs The strength of the system lies there.
But tonight, the Spurs, who should have taken the rest of the week, chose to send out all members to go all out to face the Rockets.
This sudden change has greatly affected the preparations for the Rockets. All teams thought that the Spurs would definitely stay until the end of the season, because after the All-Star weekend, the Spurs played 18 games. They insisted on taking turns, and the troika truce 9 games in these 18 games.
The same goes for Rockets coach Adelman.
However, the Spurs made adjustments tonight. The Rockets were stunned. After three quarters, the Spurs led the Rockets by 22 points 91 to 69. The three quarters put the game into garbage time.
The Spurs have shown their features in the past decade since they had Duncan. When they have a strength advantage, they overwhelm their opponents.
But the characteristics of the Spurs are also very interesting. When they are not as good as their opponents, they are basically unable to make a comeback; when the opponents are comparable in strength to them, once the opponents break out, they do not know what to do.
In the fourth quarter of garbage time, the Rockets gave up. Instead of fighting hard with their unbeatable opponents, Adelman chose to save physical strength. Then they will play the Mavericks back to back. The Rockets are in the Southwest Division. Next 28 On the 31st and 31st, they play the Hornets at home and next month they will play the Grizzlies on the 2nd.
Spurs bench, Popovich is talking to General Manager Buford.
"Greg, don't you say you don't care about the record and want to stick to the turn and wait for the playoffs? How did it suddenly change?" Buford asked strangely.
"Their record after the All-Star break exceeded my imagination." Popovich said in a deep voice.
"They? You mean the Lakers and the Mavericks?"
"Yes, there are Grizzlies."
Buford understands that these three teams lost too little after the All-Star weekend. The Lakers and Grizzlies only lost 4 games, and the Mavericks lost only two games. 60% chance of winning.
This has little to do with their Spurs team. At first, the Spurs were regarded as going to surpass the Bulls' 72 wins. If they do not take a rest, the 70-win problem should not be a big problem.
Purely the Grizzlies have a good record there. If the Mavericks want to catch up with the top four in the West, they must work harder. The Mavericks have given up the idea of ​​letting Nowitzki "integrate into the system", and directly take Yao Ming + Kidd as the core of the system. Nowitzki is a supporting role in regular time, and uses his personal ability to solve problems at a critical moment. He simply and rudely handles the problem of Nowitzki's integration, allowing the Mavericks to achieve a 15-2 record after the All-Star weekend, which is better than the Grizzlies. The Lakers have a good record, and the record gap with the Lakers has narrowed to 1 win.
The Lakers were also promoted. They did not initially target the Spurs as a goal. The Spurs' All-Star record didn't seem to catch up at all before the weekend, but the Lakers wanted a home advantage in the second round, so Zen Master While reducing the playing time of Odom and Gasol, Bynum's chances are increased. Bynum is also powerful. He seized the opportunity and won the best of the week. The performance continued to be hot. The name of the third center Firmly won.
Popovich didn’t know if he wanted to explain to Buford or was talking to himself: "I didn’t expect them to catch up so fast, the Lakers even played better than they did last season, Carlisle, I He thought he couldn't handle the problem of Nowitzki's integration, he actually solved it. The Grizzlies obviously had a plan to deal with us when they last played against us. I didn't give them the opportunity to experiment, but none of these three opponents Good deal.
I don’t want to meet the Lakers early. If we are overtaken by the Grizzlies, it will be very difficult for us to meet the Lakers. And since they are so difficult to deal with, we take home advantage, maybe it will be a better choice... …"
Talking, Popovich suddenly stopped talking.
He has another reason not to say it, and he doesn’t want anyone to know-he wants to revenge on the arrow swept by the Suns last season!
He did not sweep the Suns, but was swept by the Suns, he wanted to retaliate! Just like in the first round of the 2013 playoffs in time and space, he let the players go all out to revenge the Lakers who lost Kobe and sweep the Lakers.
Letting the Rockets lose one more game is to create a better chance for the Suns to make the playoffs.
...
...
There are always things in the NBA that are unclear and unclear. Only those who do things know why they need to do that. Others can’t figure out why.
The Spurs suddenly want to fight for the first place. The other teams don’t know about it yet. On the Grizzlies side, after a day of hard work, at 5:10 pm on March 25th, Sun Ce and his teammates entered the United States. In the center of the player's court, the first game of four consecutive players, the game against the Heat is about to begin.
Before the game started, Sun Ce received a system prompt.
"Because the host and teammates, the coaching staff, and the team fans all have strong obsessions, they do not want to encounter a losing streak. A-level event: but begging to trigger a losing streak."
"But seeking a losing streak (A): The host needs to help the team maintain a record of no losing streak in the 2010-2011 season.
Event reward: 1 A-level draw card.
Failure punishment: LeBron James finished the playoffs with the same hairstyle. If it is not executed, it will trigger a class A penalty. This playoff is in a slack stage until the host changes the hairstyle. "
As soon as he entered the stadium, the incident came suddenly, and Sun Ce was caught off guard.
The timing of this incident... is not difficult, because they just lost to the Celtics, which should be the second strongest team in the east. The current opponent is the strongest team in the east that Sun Ce feels.
The Grizzlies are currently second in the West with 54 wins and 14 losses, and the Heat are third with 47 wins and 20 losses.
The Heat have only lost 10 games since December. The Big Three are really sincere, stunned from 11th in the East to 3rd in the East.
Fortunately, Sun Ce, his teammates, and the coaching staff had already prepared for this game, and they were fully prepared. Sun Ce looked at the physical potions he could use and was very confident! Although the opponent reinforced a Pulzbila, but there was one less Haslem in the inside. Although they also lacked Yi Jianlian tonight, the inside still has an absolute advantage!
...
The Grizzlies sent Sun Ce, Tony Allen, Paul George, Randolph, and Gasol Jr. to the starting lineup.
Because Yi Jianlian showed thigh muscle tension during the training this morning~EbookFREE.me~ The Grizzlies coaching staff attached great importance to him and gave him a truce.
This has little effect, and the inside advantage is very large. Let Battier play the bench. It is just right when James arrives at the rotation stage to play the power forward.
Paul George had a rare starting opportunity, and Conley was also put on the bench to make the confrontation better with Tony Allen.
The Heat have sent Mike Bibby, Wade, James, Bosh, Big Z to the starting lineup.
After Haslem's injury, Pat Riley had not been able to complete the reinforcement of the center. Instead, the point guard found a reinforcement opportunity, signed the initiative and the Hawks bought out Bibi, and the big Z returned. The starting center's position is, of course, a pseudo-starter, averaging only 5 minutes and 4 rebounds per game in just 15 minutes.
After the game began, the Grizzlies quickly launched a defensive suppression, from the beginning of the game turned the game rhythm into a defensive battle.
James and Wade would like to start after defending each other, but meeting the trio of Sun Ce, Tony Allen and Paul George is really not that simple, but the Heat's outside feels bad!
In the starting lineup, the Grizzlies only relied on the Heat's outside pitchers to suppress the defense and defend the inside line to contend with the Heat. At the rotation stage, Wade rested and James and Bosh formed an inside partner with Chalmers When Grizzlies, Mike Miller and James Jones played, the Grizzlies had an advantage.
Sun Ce, Conley, Morrow, Battier, and Little Jordan went up and sacrificed the high-speed wheel conversion defense, borrowing from the opponent's three-pointer and feeling poor, actively shrinking and madly blocking!
