: 1615. Pioneers no longer local tyrants

At 6:40 in the evening on March 27, the Blazers' home game against the Grizzlies was about to begin.
The players of the two teams have already entered the field. Aldridge saw that the opposite side was listening to Sun Ce and said that after catching a defensive rebound, Whiteside should pay attention to the fast ball. Aldridge certainly cannot hear what the opposite side is saying, but he does not care.
What he cares about is that there will always be a good center opposite!
I don’t even know where it came from. I played Carrefour with 10 points, 15 rebounds and 3 caps, and Kanter with 8 points, 8 rebounds and 2 caps. If I had good luck in the first game, then the second game was a stable performance. .
Aldridge's eyes were exploding!
Next to him, the center is Okafor, averaging 8 points, 9.8 rebounds and 1.8 blocks per game... and this is, for him, the best center ever played in his career.
There have been Oden and Camby before, but neither of them even played in a stable season in the Blazers. During their time, the center of his partner was actually averaging 3.6 points and 6 rebounds per game. Pulzbila... In fact, he said that he didn't want to play center a hundred times but he has been playing center since the rookie season.
Until this year, with Okafor averaging 8+10+2 per game, Aldridge had more time to play as a power forward, so he played his best performance so far and led the team with Lillard. All the way to the third in the west.
Returning to the power forward position, he averaged 24 points, 11 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.2 blocks per game this season, scoring easier, not only because of fewer power forwards per game, but also because of teammates getting higher ! He is expected to be selected as the best team this season!
But look at the bench...Okafor, who averaged 29 minutes per game, went down to rest, and he had to play 37 minutes per game. He still had to carry a center for ten minutes.
The opposite Grizzlies, Gasol Jr. sent away, Valanciunas reimbursed, Gobert also tender, Yi Jianlian and Larry Sanders because of the initial injury and now need to reduce the playing time for the playoffs Prepare...but immediately signed back with a rebounding efficiency that is comparable to Jordan, Drummond's power center.
It's similar to Olajuwon's perfect center shape, Aldridge looked drooling!
"Should I suggest that the team bring him back? Yi, Valanciunas, Sanders, Gobert and this guy, the Grizzlies have all five centers, and they will definitely have to trade at least two after this season. Well, this guy and Gobert can always get one for our team at a price?"
Aldridge felt a little excited when he thought there might be a tall and mighty center like Gobert or Whiteside.
On the other side, I was listening to Sun Ce saying that when picking up rebounds, pay attention to looking for teammate Whiteside. Suddenly, I felt a chill and turned around. The power forward on the opposite side was looking at him with eyes. If he Understand the idiom, you can see it is called drooling.
...
The Trail Blazers really don’t love their father, no one voted for the All-Star starter, and the substitute coaches were also reluctant to vote for them. In terms of live broadcasts throughout the United States, the Jazz all-stars got up to 8 times after the weekend. Nationwide broadcast, the Trail Blazers added two more games, the original scheduled and the final additional broadcast throughout the season, a total of 11 games...
Tonight, the Grizzlies did not get a national live broadcast. The ratings of the Trail Blazers' games have been desperate for major TV stations.
Mainly because of the reputation of the Portland Prison, Roy and Lillard two generations of veteran stars have completely changed this team, but many old fans still have an inherent impression of them, that is, they are unwilling to watch them. game.
Moreover, it is said that the Timberwolves and Denver cities are black and no stars are willing to go, and the Trail Blazers are really nobody willing to go!
Even when Sabonis was in pressure and a group of talented teammates rushed to Xijie to fight the Lakers for a tie-break, there was no star who came to find them to cooperate and the thighs were not bad.
The Blazers' free market hasn't changed much, and it's even less attractive.
But the current strength of the Trail Blazers is really strong!
In the face of the old club, coach Hollins did not have any ideas to keep his hands and went all out!
The starting lineup sent Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Amir Johnson, Larry Sanders, the purpose is very simple, defensive defense!
Amir Johnson battled Okafor under the basket and Larry Sanders defended Aldridge in the middle.
The idea is very good, but the Trail Blazers starter plus sixth person accounted for more than 80% of the team's score. It's no joke. Just like the last game, the Grizzlies were beaten by the Blazers in the first quarter. A wave of 31 to 21!
Originally, Hollings coach intended to look at the situation, first sent a defensive lineup, and then continued to consume the defensive lineup, and finally replaced the core combination of Sun Ce, Richard Jefferson, Yi Jianlian, with two pitchers Rush the opposite.
However, the past three games with the Trail Blazers played 2 wins and 1 loss, so that the Grizzlies side is too careless, especially this month only beat the Trail Blazers at home once, forget the Blazers are famous The home dragon!
The Grizzlies lost to the Trail Blazers three times in the first three games. The one lost was in this arena!
Instead, they were beaten by the Blazers! 10 points behind in the first quarter!
The Blazers are really strong! French Pippen Batum averaged 7.5 rebounds, Aldridge averaged 11 rebounds and Okafor averaged 9.8 rebounds. Under the leadership of their brothers, the Trail Blazers have averaged 46.5 rebounds per game this season. Their Grizzlies are averaging 47.2 boards per game and the Bulls are averaging 46.8 boards per game!
Whiteside's debut in the second half of the first quarter failed to grab an offensive rebound from this brother.
Moreover, the Trail Blazers averaged 13 points, 7.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 1.2 steals, and 1.1 blocks. Batum played very well in both offense and defense. Aldridge and Lillard and Matthews can pass.
Not only did the Trail Blazers rank in the top three in rebounds per game this season, they also ranked second in assists per game with 24.1 per game, second only to the Grizzlies with 25.5 assists, the Spurs with 25.2 assists, the Lakers with 24.9 assists, and the Hawks. 24.9 assists, 24.5 assists for the Timberwolves!
In the first quarter, this wave of the Grizzlies was very hurt. In the second quarter, Sun Ce began to fight against the last useless physical medicine and began to fight to death! There was really no chance for the last game. Paul George's non-play has had a great impact on them.
But all the staff are in order tonight, and we must fight!
Next, we have to play the Warriors and lose one more game. The leading advantage of the Warriors is only one!
Sun Ce began to play hard, and the overall performance of the Grizzlies has improved a bit, but the Trail Blazers have long been accustomed to three of the five starters with two pits dragging and dragging.
Sun Ce, who only scored 6 points, 3 rebounds and 1 assist in the first quarter, scored 16 points, 3 rebounds, 2 assists and 1 block in the second quarter, helping the Grizzlies chase the score 52 to 59.
In the third quarter, Mo Williams, Matthews, Aldridge, and Batum came together, bringing white center Meyers Leonard, Lillard, Okafor, Dorell Wright Rotation.
Under Sun Ce's 18-point performance in the third quarter, the Trail Blazers still scored 29-31. After three quarters, the Trail Blazers still maintained a 5-point lead 88-83.
In the final quarter, the strongest lineups of Lillard, Matthews, Batum, Aldridge, and Okafor came on the court and directly filled the final quarter!
In the last quarter, Sun Ce hurried 14 points, helping the team score 25 points in a quarter, while limiting the Trail Blazers to only 23 points.
But the Grizzlies, who were five points behind before the start of the fourth quarter, failed to complete the turnaround.
111 to 108, the Blazers beat the Grizzlies at home and improved the record to 51 wins and 19 losses, further expanding the record gap between the Grizzlies and giving the Grizzlies a two-game losing streak, allowing the Grizzlies The record was tied by the Warriors!
In this game, Lillard made 9 of 23 shots, including 8 of 3 3-pointers, 6 of 6 free throws, and scored 27 points and 6 assists; Aldridge scored 41 points on 15 of 24 shots and Batum 11 points and 4 rebounds 11 assists, 4 steals, 3 blocks, Matthews 13 points, Okafor 2 points, 9 rebounds and 3 blocks, Mo Williams has 10 points...
This starting five-man + sixth man scored 104 points together... It is said that the Trail Blazers rely on six people to win, Sun Ce felt this time.
In the face of the performance of the strongest six-person group, his Sun's 54 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 blocks are also difficult to parry.
Moreover, the most tragic reminder is that he made 20 of 40 shots, including 5 of 13 three-pointers, plus 8 of 10 free throws, a 50% shooting rate, and still hit 20 iron...
...
...
Losing to the six teams with 104 points in the main force, Sun Ce also lost his mouth, and the opponent's starting + sixth person is really too strong!
But Sun Ce is also a little bit puzzled. Where did the previous local tyrant pioneers go? They are the starters, but if there are several high-quality role players, they can compete for the championship!
But in this game, the Trail Blazers only had 8 players in the game, including Meyers Leonard playing only 10 minutes, Dorell Wright has lost his courage, playing soy sauce, really starting The only substitute to be effective was Mo Williams. At other times, the pure starter supported him, and Matthews, Batum, Aldridge played the whole game.
Sun Ce admits that they are powerful, but this is a regular season. In the playoff round, he feels that this lineup will not be able to hold on!
After the game, Sun Ce returned to the hotel and looked at the salary of the Trail Blazers curiously, and found that after the end of the season, the Blazers can reduce the salary space to 50 million!
"Do they want to dig a superstar? Who are the superstars that expire in summer? Duncan? By the way, there are Lowry, Parsons, Pierce and Deng, Bosh are also free agents, and the Gasol contract also expires. Now..."
Sun Ce felt that the Trail Blazers had an idea and wanted to form a giant combination. In addition to the core four-person group of Lillard, Batum, Aldridge, and Matthews, they also wanted to take advantage of Lillard and Matthew. Sri Lanka’s low-paying dividend brought an All-Star player back.
But... Sun Ce thought about whether he would go to the Blazers if he wanted to change teams on a team with no future.
the answer is negative.
In terms of points and faces, he has no dislikes for the Trail Blazers and he doesn't want to go. The other stars are probably the same, so Sun Ce really can't understand why the Blazers suddenly "tuck" the role players.
...
After playing the Trail Blazers the next morning, Sun Ce followed the team to Auckland.
It's time to play against the Warriors again. Tomorrow is the 29th. It's the fourth and final game for the Grizzlies this season.
The Grizzlies won the first three games, but the three games were before the All-Star Weekend. At that time, the Warriors were in two stages. One was that David Li was too late to integrate into the team. Then, After the Warriors lost the strongest player in the pain period, the three encounters, in addition to the third encounter, Curry Hurricane was knocked over by Klay Thompson's 12 three-pointers in a single game, their Grizzlies won, and the other two It's fairly easy to win.
However, after the All-Star weekend, the Warriors are completely different!
The current Warriors record is 47 wins and 24 losses. Their Grizzlies 48 wins and 23 losses are only one win ahead of the Warriors.
After the All-Star weekend, the Warriors have 14 games, 3 wins and 3 losses so far! This record ranks first among all teams after the All-Star Weekend!
Despite 11 wins and 1 loss, the Warriors suffered a two-game losing streak, but in the past three games the Warriors set sail again, playing a wave of three-game winning streak.
The Grizzlies have arrived in Oakland, but the Warriors have not returned to Oakland. Last night, they defeated the Celtics in the last three games and won three straight.
So this time, Sun Ce didn't ask Curry and Harden to go out to gather, so he stayed in the hotel to study his opponent.
There will be an important event in the game tomorrow night-the second stage event of the strongest three-point combination in the humble learning sector, the escalation event of the trend of water splash!
There are three goals for the event, the first is the highest three-pointer in a single game.
The highest three-pointer in a single game this season is maintained by Clay Thompson. 12 three-pointers in a single game. This is in the remaining 10 games. If any one of Curry or Harden can break, Sun Ce also no way.
There were 12 three-pointers in a single game, and there was not a few times for his son. This year, there is no chance.
The second goal is to average three-pointers per game. The Splash Brothers are higher than the Waves.
This currently maintains an advantage. His Sun averaged 3.94 three-pointers per game. After playing with the Trail Blazers, he had 280 total three-pointers this season, second only to Curry’s 298 three-pointers. Hits, averaging 4.2 three-pointers per game.
Sun Ce was a bit behind, but Klay Thompson averaged three 3-pointers per game, leading Harden by an average of 2.55 three-pointers per game, which was greater than Curry’s lead over his Sun!
The third goal is to fight two times in the back, and the total number of three-pointers made by their water splash brothers is higher than the wave combination.
This last game was done with Klay Thompson's 12 three-pointers.
...
This wave of away games is a two-game losing streak, which puts a lot of pressure on the Grizzlies players. The next four opponents are the Warriors, Thunder, Nuggets, Timberwolves... but the pressure is still strong, and it can withstand Pressure to play one game to one game.
After a night of rest in Oakland, on March 29, the game day of Game 3 of the Grizzlies' six-game guest arrived.
For this opponent who is likely to meet in the first round, the Grizzlies coaching team rushed all the way from the Warriors to the fifth in the west, and began to prepare for the fight with them, even preparing to lose home advantage.
This is an objective reason. The coaching staff should not blindly expect good things to happen, but should start preparing from the worst.
Not only did the Grizzlies coaching staff prepare to do so, the media and fans also regarded the game as the last playoff match between the two teams with the best outside team in the regular season as a playoff preview.
The Grizzlies and the Warriors played against each other, and the fans felt the ceremonial burst!
Sun Ce and Curry were selected by the Warriors in the same year. One was left and gradually built into the core of the team. The three-point hand was desperate; one was sent away and already had the league first in the other team. The voice of people.
Some people expect Curry to end Sun Ce's dominance among contemporaries. Some people expect Curry to change the league... Others expect Sun Ce to continue to rule.
And the performance of these two people made fans wonder whether the Warriors management hadn't performed cataract surgery at that time? So blind?
Not to mention Sun Ce and Klay Thompson's excellent cooperation, on the tacit agreement between Sun Ce and Curry on the All-Star weekend, even the three-pointer, if these two brothers have been on the same team... some fans feel that The two of them are on the same team, and may not have the effect of Sun Ce and Klay Thompson in the early stage. The comparison of Klay Thompson who has been more mature and entered the NBA two years later than Sun Ce~EbookFREE.me~Curry and Sun Ce needed a lot of shot power in the early days. In the same team, it is not necessarily true that both of them can be cultivated.
Curry played pure 3D, and the effect was not as good as that of Klay Thompson, and defense alone couldn't solve it.
And now Tabit is also very easy to use, one of the best frame players in the league.
...
After a day of preparation, at 7:40 in the evening, the players of the two teams entered the stadium.
Curry can now be said to be proud, and after the All-Star weekend, the last 17 games, they are finally on the right track!
Compared to the Grizzlies with 11 wins and 8 losses in the past 19 games, their Warriors have performed much better.
However, they still have a very fearful place-Sun Ce!
In the past four weeks, Sun Ce has won three of the best players in the Western Conference. The best number of weeks this season has increased from 5 to 8 in just one month!
In these 19 games after the All-Star Weekend, Sun Ce got 10 40+ times, including two 50+ times, and 12 triple doubles, three of which were 40+ triple doubles... There is a team that wants Sun Ce’s crazy March leader show, but now, no one wants to do such a thing.
Can't stop it at all!
Some strong teams, instead of being full of injuries and injuries in the Grizzlies, tried to stop Sun Ce’s personal performance when they had an advantage. Instead, they were used by Sun Ce and defeated by the Grizzlies. .
Curry did not have this idea from the first game of the rookie season to fight data and overall strength with Sun Ce. He did not become an opponent. He just wanted to win, and now there are Harden and Iguodala. 、Tabbit, he believes that he only needs to use his strengths to help the team!
