: One thousand six hundred and seventy-seven. The scoring contest rekindled!

On the morning of December 5, 2014, Westbrook came out of the hotel early and came out of the FedEx Arena at 7:30. Looking at the huge LED screen above the gate of the Grizzlies Arena, no matter how you switch the content, it has been marked. Written-22-0, Westbrook felt a suffocation...
What kind of terrible state can the Grizzlies win all the way to now?
If he hadn't just seen the Heat's 30-game winning streak two years ago, Rao was confident like him, and he would be scared by the Grizzlies' 22-game winning streak.
Yesterday their Thunder team came to Memphis, the media have already started to warm up for this game.
There are a lot of things to watch in this game. On the front line, Paul George and Durant compete for the best lineup.
Sun Ce and James must definitely occupy two positions, almost certainly the position of the striker. The league will always put Sun Ce in the position of the striker. Some fans joked that it would be better if he did not list him alone.
Although Paul George's stats are not particularly good this season, after all, he controls his shooting power in the team's fourth, averaging only 10.2 shots per game, but 5.5 rebounds and 7.6 assists are very good, the key is a good record!
Compared with Klay Thompson and Aldridge, Paul George, averaging 14.5 points, 5.5 rebounds, 7.6 assists and 2 steals, is more likely to be selected for the best lineup. If the record is good enough, Paul George does well with Durant. Good enough, and even expected to be selected for the second team, because Durant is far less defensive than Paul George, Durant’s 4.4 defensive efficiency so far this season is very good, helping the team limit opponents to 105 points per 100 rounds. Similar to Klay Thompson, Klay Thompson is a defensive player on the edge of the second defense.
But Paul George's defensive efficiency is 6.2, limiting opponents to 100 points per 100 rounds. This season's forward position is the first, better than Anthony Davis and Leonard, both of which have 102 points.
The best defensive lineup only looks at the defense, but the best lineup is comprehensive, offensive, defensive, and record must be considered.
There is also a duel between Aldridge and Ibaka. In the past few seasons, Ibaka was the most popular power forward. He has a strong defense, a precise CIC, and does not occupy the ball. He can also play top offense and defense performance. The team wants it.
And Aldridge has always been depressed. He has to complain to the media himself that he played better than Ibaka, Gasol, and Bosh. Why didn’t he choose him, and then the head coaches of each team discovered that Aldridge Qi is so good, he started the All-Star Game for the first time in the sixth year of his career when the shrinking season began.
Ibaka's defensive end has declined a lot because of his athleticism this season, but the offensive end has become better. Previously, he mainly cut into and catches shots, but in the summer he clearly felt that his athleticism declined. Starting to adjust the style of play, the Thunder helped him find Radmanovic to teach him skiing... No, teach him to run, this season his scoring average soared to a career high, averaging 18.5 points and 5.4 rebounds and 2 blocks.
The duel between the two is also very interesting. They are both masters of mid-range shooting and are perfect three-headed players.
The biggest attraction is the duel between the two active players in the three super triple double kings.
Westbrook VS Sun Ce!
In the eyes of most fans, Westbrook clearly has a superstar appearance than Durant.
Even in terms of popularity, Durant and Harden are not as high as Westbrook. Many people think that Durant’s temperament is not good enough, and Harden’s playing style is relatively flat, while Westbrook has both ornamental and star temperament. Data performance.
Westbrook has played 22 games this season, averaging 21.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 10.41 assists and 1.5 steals, playing more than a quarter of the game. Westbrook's data has stabilized, averaging a bit of triple-double No problem.
On Sun Ce’s side, after the start of this season, his personal performance was very good. Although the data is much different from the same period last season, averaging 29.227 points, 11.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 2.68 blocks and 2.5 steals, the shooting rate is still 52%. , 41% three-point shooting, 81% free throw shooting, both career highs, the most important thing is that the defensive end has recovered the level of the first defense period, the Grizzlies overall defense is better , The biggest benefit is Sun Ce.
The team's record has continuously set a new historical record. The Bulls and Celtics have maintained the best start in the history of 20 wins and 2 losses. Sun Ce was already seen when he finished his first game month. It is the number one hot spot for MVP.
This start, even with Mian Zhuang MVP, is enough for Sun Ce's opening performance.
What fans want to see most is the match between Sun Ce and Westbrook.
Sun Ce's triple-doubles this season are far less than the number of games played in the same game last season. Four triple-doubles, although the second highest in the league, is far worse than Westbrook's 9 triple-doubles in 22 games.
Once again in Memphis, and to play against Sun Ce again, Westbrook feels that he is almost in the shadows. Last season, he played MVP and scored a triple-double. Who knows that Sun Ce actually got a more terrible triple-double. , It's almost unreasonable.
This season, Westbrook made a comeback, preparing to continue to average three doubles per game. With Durant in place, a good organization of attack plus multiple passes, 10+ assists are easy to get. In rebounding, Adamska is even more powerful. Ibaka is now focusing on card positions due to impaired athletic ability.
There is no problem with scoring, Westbrook feels fully capable of scoring.
However, when Westbrook wanted to compete with Sun Ce again, Sun Ce no longer played triple-doubles.
However, last season Sun Ce had a record-breaking three double-doubles and overcame it all at once. With the Grizzlies, Sun Ce did not have the opportunity to continue to take a lot of triple-doubles. Fans hope to see two more In a single season, three pairs of masters with three or forty triple doubles against the Biao.
Anyway, seeing Westbrook's statistics this season, Big O's historical position in the media and fans' eyes fell again, and Westbrook's goal this season is to average back-to-back triple-doubles!
On top of this, the more important goal is the championship.
Just after Westbrook stopped for more than ten minutes, the sky began to drizzle. Memphis arrived here in autumn and winter. There were many rainy days. The Grizzlies security guard still took the umbrella prepared by the team and handed it out. The visiting team star.
Westbrook was distracted until the security guard walked in front of him. He was silent, took the umbrella, said thank you, turned to the sewer... No, it was the way back to the hotel.
...
In this game, the Thunder pays great attention, and the Grizzlies pays the same attention. In the previous game where the Spurs played, the opponent "gave". It was just that the Spurs did not want to fight that way at the beginning of the season. Necessarily, the ups and downs of the regular season Spurs don’t care so much. Anyway, Duncan played 17 or 8 years and still had a double-play performance. There is no need to compete with others in the regular season. Even if they are rivals, they know that they play in the playoffs. How to adjust.
The Thunder are different. They are not always successful teams like the Spurs. They urgently need to prove that they have a combination that is enough to beat the champions. Their combination has been together for too long and too long, but the playoffs In the face of championship champions, they have always lost, so in the end their combination is almost over.
Therefore, the Thunder will fight very hard every time they face the hot title competition. In the past few years, when they met the teams with the highest probability of championship competition, they also won more... except the Grizzlies.
Since the 09-10 season, the past five seasons, the two teams have played 18 times in the regular season, the Thunder 5 wins and 13 losses!
Even in the 2009-10 season when the Lakers defended, the Thunder defeated the Lakers twice in the regular season. In the past few years, the Lakers have had Paul and James to join the strong competition. The Thunder faced in the regular season. Not only did the Lakers not fall, but they played against the Lakers in the regular season.
Playing against the Spurs, playing against the Bulls, playing against the Heat... The Thunder rarely have a disadvantage in the regular season.
The Thunder haven’t proven themselves in the playoffs. There is no way. They have always met the final championship in the playoffs in recent years, but they still want to build confidence in the regular season, otherwise the playoffs will be more awful.
But to play the Grizzlies, how do they play and how to lose, it is difficult to win once, and then they will lose two or three times.
For the Thunder three youngsters entering the peak period, the Grizzlies are also very worried.
In the morning tactical meeting, coach Hollins emphasized that Durant, Westbrook, and Ibaka have all entered their peak. Adams has also made great progress in the second grade, averaging 3.5 offensive rebounds per game. Second in the league, both higher than Jordan Jr., after Drummond, he averaged 4.4 offensive rebounds per game, and 6.8 rebounds per game... This comparison is characteristic.
And their shooting guard Dion Waiters greatly improved their shooting guard scoring ability, so that they can have an excellent substitute when Andre Robertson rests.
At the beginning of the season, their poor performance was mainly due to the pain caused by the adjustment of the state and Ibaka's style of play. As their status picked up and Ibaka started to change the style of play, the record began to pick up.
The most important thing is Durant and Westbrook, both of whom are 26 years old, have begun to enter the peak period!
Sun Ce watched Durant's career-high 53% field goal percentage. He averaged 28.5 points per game. This is Durant's second career shooting rate of over 50%, but the number of shots has been since the rookie year. The lowest average is 17.5 times!
The reason is very simple. Scott Brooks missed the last half of the season due to Durant's injury. Ibaka was overmatched in the playoffs and fell injured. As a result, his athletic ability fell and he finally became aware of Durant's playing time. Controlled at about 35 minutes, Durant played the best efficiency of his career.
Westbrook also improved with Durant's efficiency, and of course his personal abilities improved. His shooting rate reached 46%, the highest career!
...
After a day of preparation, at 6:40 pm, Sun Ce and his teammates warmed up and entered the stadium together.
"Durant S, Westbrook S, Robertson B-Defensive A+, Ibaka A, Adams B+, Waiters B, Moro B+... The Neptune with his beard is a bit powerful, and the second grade is B+... …
Last year, Moro should be brought back..."
Sun Ce looked at the performance of the old teammate Anthony Morrow, who was signed by the Thunder's three-year mini-middle-class, this season, simply, 47% of the three-point shooting is temporarily ranked first in the league, averaging 2.2!
However, their first goal last year was not a regular three-pointer. Their outside trio was enough, and they also signed Blake, who was not so powerful but had a stable three-point vacancy. Blake made 11 appearances this season. 1 three-pointer, 40% shooting rate, and pass ability.
Sun Ce is analyzing the lineup on the opposite side, and some players regret that some players have not been able to get it back.
And Durant, who looked at the Grizzlies lineup on the other side, really wanted to hit someone.
Looking at the five big starters on the opposite side, is there any reason? Is there any law?
On the bench were Yi Jianlian and Larry Sanders, two quasi-million annual salary grade players, and the pile of benches...too much!
But fortunately, there are only 5 players on the court. On the strongest lineup, their Thunder team is not bad. In the case that the main force needs more playing time, their overall strength of the Thunder team will not be too weak.
Durant feels that he is now carrying a mission-to kill this evil big devil!
Looking at Sun Ce, Durant seemed to see the figure of the big demon who had covered the evil big hands in the basketball field.
Sun Ce is here to wait until the cheerleading performance is over and ready to wipe the magnesium powder, the system prompts!
"The battle for scoring champions is on fire again.
Scoring is the most important indicator in basketball games. The goal of the host is to become the overlord of the basketball world, and the scoring king is indispensable.
The host is opposed to Kevin Durant, who has the most stable scoring and very strong scoring ability in the league today, and will have a long-term competition around the scoring king.
A-level exclusive challenge event: The epic scoring king has been triggered. "

Complete the three consecutive scoring achievements, this event will open the follow-up event. "
...
At 6:58 pm, Sun Ce and his starting teammates walked onto the court together. Tonight the Grizzlies played the main game. Blake and Stoudemire did not enter the activation list. Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Paul George, Lando Aldridge's starting lineup came out.
The Thunder team, Westbrook, Andre Robertson, Durant, Ibaka, Adams starting lineup.
Sun Ce had no interest in the scoring champion this season. It doesn't matter if he is overtaken or has dropped his average score per game, but now... it's a fight!
With a total score of 39 points, he will become the fifth player in NBA history after James, Kobe, Durant, Anthony to score more than 10,000 before the age of 25, but he doesn’t care very much, he can certainly do it, from the age of 25 There is a full month.
But tonight he must score at least 39 points, otherwise there will be problems in the next few games... If it is not a winning streak in peacetime, the hand will be cold and the hand will be cold, and it has not been cold before, but he is now hitting 25 consecutive Win.
That must be done, but the team has to win. Now he doesn’t necessarily have to score high. Sometimes he wants to win single digits to win. However, he must get 39 points tonight and not play in the face. The Knicks are difficult, which means that the difficulty of the game tonight has increased!
At 7 o'clock, the highly anticipated strong duel began. The referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game and threw the ball into the air. Adams pressed Aldridge to win the jump.
Seeing this scene, Yi Muhualian on the sideline suddenly felt very proud. When he wanted to start the game last season, the team's jump rate was over 70%!
The Thunder attacked first, and Westbrook advanced slowly to the frontcourt, waiting for his teammates to run, seize the opportunity, face Paul George's defense, and accelerate the strong break.
The league's strongest straight-line acceleration ability in the confrontation, Westbrook stunned Paul George to complete the acceleration, leaving behind the defensive acceleration of the passive Paul George behind.
Sun Ce was ready to make up the defense, and Westbrook was also familiar with Sun Ce's defense. His teammates already knew how to run the position. Andre Roberson, who was vacated by Sun Ce, cut in, and Westbrook was the first. Time-pointing, but not for Andre Robertson, who attracted Aldridge to move to the right side of the three-second zone, but Adams who cut into the left bottom line after Aldridge moved to the right of the three-second zone!
Adams scored two points with ease.
Of the players averaging more than 5 points per game this season, three players have a shooting percentage of more than 60%, one Jordan, one McKee, and the other is Adams!
The main scoring means of these three people is to eat the cake~EbookFREE.me~The offensive and defensive conversion, seeing the Thunder team withdraw quickly, Sun Ce did not worry, picked up the ball and sent it to Paul George.
Just now the ball couldn't help, the defense was as strong as Paul George, and it didn't make any difference in the face of Westbrook's breakthrough.
No one can resist this!
Westbrook can get so many assists, not by sticky ball. There are more sticky players, but there are only a few players who can average 10+ assists per game.
Judging by the teammate's running position, the consciousness of the breakthrough time, the breakthrough ability, the close distance and the scoring ability of the basket...These Westbrook are the top!
When the Grizzlies attacked, the Thunder pressed the rhythm very slowly!
This season, the Thunder is one of the lowest scoring teams in the league, averaging 104.5 points per game, 105.5 points lower than the league average, and 98 points per game. It is one of the slowest teams in the league, and it is one of the few One of several teams that can suppress opponent scores below 100 points!
