: One thousand five hundred and seventy-seven.

The Grizzlies deal attracted the attention of many teams.
The media and fans are discussing.
Some team players also commented on this, and each team is also very concerned.
There are trades every year, only when the Grizzlies are a hot team will they get such attention.
In particular, the Grizzlies will play against the Thunder tonight. At this juncture, completing a deal on the team's internal tactical core over the past few years will have a huge impact on any team.
In the afternoon break, Tony Allen, Richard Jefferson, and Paul George are seriously helping new teammates to understand the team as soon as possible, how much they can understand, Tony Allen is defensive Leader, Richard Jefferson locker room leader, these two help the new teammates to integrate without problems.
But Paul George, Sun Ce's sentence "We'll rely on you next", so that Paul George has an extra responsibility that he should not bear at this age... No way, he can only carry the knife.
...
At 6:10 in the evening, the Grizzlies, home to the Thunder, broadcast by T.N.T and Time Warner Cable Sports, will play in 20 minutes.
Players from both teams entered the court.
Seeing the big fat boy who had been on the team for more than 5 years just left, the old fans on the scene were very sad. Randolph reimbursed and Gasol Jr. was traded. For the Grizzlies fans, you can It is said that their time has passed, from the era of double bears to the era of lords!
It seems to be going smoothly, without going through the overwhelming transition stage like O-K, and even without internal strife, and the fuse that triggered the change of the times, Randolph was overworked due to weight, fatigue and other reasons, and was injured and reimbursed.
This is more like David Robinson's reimbursement for one of the four centers in the 96-97 season. When David Robinson came back, the Spurs already had a better center. Once they appeared in the NBA, it was enough to At that time, Shaq O'Neal, who had gradually become the strongest center, was comparable to the era-level superstar Duncan.
The Grizzlies also seem to have to go through this process...Although it is not the same, it is like the Spurs' two towers.
Sun Ce always feels strange when he sees such a topic thrown from the media...
The Grizzlies fans are somewhat sentimental. If the ordinary inner core team has been split after four years of playing, the double bear partner has helped Sun Ce win two championships for more than four years!
The best picture in the minds of fans of this generation will undoubtedly be the bits and pieces when they got the first championship.
However, even if you miss it, the fans are cheering for the new players!
Compared with other accepted losses to the Grizzlies, the unfavorable, questionable, and even optimistic other fans are not as important as the Grizzlies fans.
They hope that the two can smoothly integrate into the team than anyone else.
TNT commentator Charles Barkley had a rare serious and said to the TV camera before the Grizzlies and Thunder games began: "The Grizzlies suffer a big loss, but that is just looking at the transaction value, if early I knew Randolph would be injured, and the Grizzlies would trade Mark Gasol as early as summer, but no one expected this kind of thing. We all thought Randolph would be as lucky as before and lose weight every year. Not injured.
As far as the current season is concerned, the Grizzlies deal is understandable. Because Randolph is reimbursed for the season, the Grizzlies can no longer pin their hopes on the inside double towers this year, so they are ready to make the inside line full. They have almost all types. Inside.
Stoudemire...you know I admire him. He played on the team that retired my jersey. Now he follows Nash to follow the kid they brought into the NBA.
Otterspes, he is very good, I have eaten with him, he is a quiet person, do you know where he is self-discipline? He only eats vegetable salad at the reception! Such people are monsters.
Sanders and Johnson are very dynamic players.
Valanciunas? It’s like spelling his name right, he’s very much like Mark Gasol, but he doesn’t have the passing and defensive dominance of the basket, and he doesn’t even have the ability to pass.
Valanciunas is not as good as Mark Gasol, but his sense of pick-and-roll and catching the ball after the split are better... By the way, they also have a very high rookie called Gobert...
They don't have a real inside star at the moment, they are all role players. They now urgently need to make changes and have chosen to make changes. Now we need to see whether the changes they made are correct or wrong. "
Kenny Smith nodded while listening to Barkley's words, and finally concluded: "Charles, you finally finished reading. Can you return my manuscript to me?"
"Oh, damn, you lost to me in the afternoon playing cards and you have no money to pay. Okay, use your manuscript to pay off?"
...
Buckley and Kenny Smith quarreled again, and Buckley didn't shy away that he was reading someone else's manuscript.
On the side of the game, there was not much communication between the players of the two teams after they entered the field.
The players are very motivated, especially the outside players. The second-generation Hardaway Jr. has nothing to do. He doesn’t look at Sengmian and Buddha. The team picks him back with the 16th pick and is unlikely to trade unless other teams He is designated to be... But as far as the current situation in the league is concerned, teams that want Grizzlies players also hope that the Grizzlies can use them cheaply for two or three years to train them.
Hardaway Jr. and Gobert went to College Park in Atlanta yesterday to play the Development League game. They were loaned to the Hawks Development League team by the Grizzlies. As long as there is no game on the NBA side, the NBDL Skyhawks All have the right to call him to play.
Gasol Jr. was traded, and dual 3D was safe, because some room was made.
While other players are uncertain, there are also uncertainties in the inside.
Now that the players have reached a consensus, if they want to be "safe", they have to work hard to let the management see that they don't need to trade anymore, they are strong!
On the side of Sun Ce, I chatted with the coaching staff in the afternoon. As he thought, the team is preparing to change the "reference object" of the rotation of players in the game from the inside to the outside.
This is more in line with the current development of the NBA, like the Lakers, Spurs and Mavericks all do so.
As for transactions, there is not much talk.
Without talking too much, Sun Ce knew that the team is still on the sidelines, maybe there will be better trading partners, maybe it will continue like this.
This is the same as what teammates want to do-playing well can stabilize it.
In fact, this made Sun Ce feel much more settled. What he has to do now is to play well!
By 6:28 in the evening, players from both teams were on the field.
For the rotation, Hollins coach is very cautious, Gobert and Hardaway Jr. did not enter the activation list tonight, still a combination of Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Richard Jefferson, Yi Jianlian.
Since the start of the new season, the Grizzlies have been an offensive team for a long time, averaging 109.6 points per game in 36 games, ranking first in the league.
This season, due to many factors, the league averaged 102.5 points per game, but the team with the highest average score is only 109.6 points, which is still very rare in NBA history, and represents the average score above the league. Teams, their respective scoring strength gap is not as great as before.
In the past, when all the teams in the league averaged 94 points per game, there was a 110-point team like the Suns.
But their Grizzlies averaged 103.5 points per game, which is also higher than the league average of 102.5 points.
Now they need to change, and they have begun to change.
The Thunder team sent Westbrook, Sephora, Durant, Ibaka, Adams starting lineup.
Westbrook looked at Sun Ce standing on the other side of the center line.
From Westbrook's point of view, the Grizzlies over this transaction, the future is not known, but now, the Grizzlies' strength is definitely enhanced!
Judging from the previous half of the season, Gasol Jr. had barely played at a crucial moment. Instead, it was the combination of Randolph and Larry Sanders, or the combination of Richard Jefferson and Yi Jianlian. More playing time at all times.
Westbrook believes that after Gasol Jr.'s successful weight loss, his role will be greater than the Grizzlies' inside line except Randolph at the critical moment, but at present, there are two more inside lines that are faster and better pick and roll. The Grizzlies must have improved.
Westbrook's ideas represent the views of most players on the Grizzlies deal because they focus on the opponents of the current game, not the value of the transaction, the future, etc., as fans, media, commentators, and management. Wait.
At 6:30, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game, and this nationwide live game started!
Yi Jianlian pressed Adams to win the jump ball, the Grizzlies first attack!
After Paul George advanced to the frontcourt, he met Seferosa and passed it to Sun Ce. Sun Ce was followed by Durant. In the face of Durant who was quite restrained, Sun Ce did not single, but passed to the out of position. Klay Thompson.
Klay Thompson made a three-point shot... Westbrook couldn't keep up, and took it back directly, but no one after Klay Thompson seemed to be unable to shoot, iron!
While Ibaka and Adams were dedicated to blocking their defenders, Sun Ce jumped from behind Westbrook and took the ball to the rim!
This is really not because the double-card front card is not good, but after they succeed in the card position, they have the first chance to grab a rebound, but they did not grab it!
Missing the best stage of grabbing the ball is equivalent to giving the outside player a chance to grab a rebound!
This is the most essential difference between Westbrook and Sun Ce, because Sun Ce was originally a medium-distance, close-range assist-based play, and the body has its own defensive rebounding deterrence. Many teams choose to retreat instead of rushing. .
However, after half a season, the Thunder team has become accustomed to this situation occasionally.
The offensive and defensive conversion, the Thunder attack, compared to the Grizzlies, the Thunder rhythm suddenly slowed down.
There will always be fans who watch the Grizzlies for the first time this season because of the Grizzlies trade tonight.
They just discovered an artifact at the beginning of the game-why is the Grizzlies so fast?
This is a very magical thing. The Grizzlies are no longer the transition of the offensive and defensive + running of the positional battle, but the overall rhythm has become faster!
The Grizzlies didn't expect it to be like this at first, but as Gasol Jr. was traded, the fast-paced offense really became their main theme.
However, for the Thunder's style of play, the Grizzlies have a certain degree of restraint against the opponent. Richard Jefferson defensively only has a fixed-point shot and counterattacks the two scoring means of the basket. Sun Ce closes at close range Against Ibaka, Paul George against Durant, Klay Thompson against Westbrook.
This is Durant's first encounter with Paul George, who has progressed to a quasi-top level and has a top edge defense in the new season. The defensive pressure encountered is much greater than before, and Ibaka encountered Sun Ce with a low pick and roll. Changing the defense, watching the two guys of similar height actually played the forward rotation defense... Durant is not good for the whole person.
Westbrook rushed to the inside at this time, failed to get rid of Klay Thompson and missed a shot on the right edge of the three seconds zone!
Sun Ce turned around and stuck Durant to receive a defensive rebound and counterattack!
Adams retired directly when he was stuck by Yi Jianlian, and the rest of the Thunder quickly retreated. The Grizzlies did not play a fast break, but forced the opponent to have a defensive position. This time the opportunity appeared on the sideline of Yi Jianlian. There, but after Sun Ce passed to Klay Thompson and Klay Thompson gave Yi Jianlian, Yi Jian didn't make a jump shot!
But this time, Richard Jefferson's sharp bottom line rushed into the rush and jumped high to directly press the ball that Yi Jianlian did not score back to the rim!
At this moment, Richard Jefferson seemed to dream back to the top and suddenly detonated the scene.
In the first two rounds, the Thunder were overwhelmed by Sun Ce and Richard Jefferson.
The Grizzlies are too active!
It's not that the Grizzlies didn't fight in previous games~EbookFREE.me~ One thing the Grizzlies made their opponents uncomfortable with this season was the change in their offensive end, which was aggressive and fierce.
But tonight the Grizzlies team is particularly excited, the momentum is stronger than usual!
Not only that, the defensive end of the Grizzlies is also stronger than usual. The Grizzlies lineup, because the defense is really not dripping, the usual enthusiasm is mainly reflected in blocking three points and defending the basket and rebounding position.
In the face of off-ball pick-and-rolls and mid-range jumpers, the Grizzlies can't prevent this lineup.
But the Grizzlies are fighting tonight!
Sun Ce and Paul George did a very good job on the forward rotation defense!
The Thunder could not understand why the Grizzlies clearly encountered a trade and should be in a painful period. They actually played more aggressively than usual. At the beginning, they were beaten by a wave of 12:4, 4 minutes. The Thunder were stunned. With 4 points, if the next attack does not progress, the next round may be scored by 10 points in the opening game. The Thunder team called a timeout!
