1204. The Beginning of the Battle Through the Air (Part 2
Since I haven't paid much attention to the Thunder for a while, Sun Ce checked Durant's recent performance.
It seems that after Kobe Bryant issued the challenge, Durant's number of shots increased sharply, from 18.2 shots per game in the previous month to 22 per game. Although his scoring average increased from 29 points to 31 points, his shooting percentage increased from 100 to 100.
Fifty-one percent dropped to 49 percent.
Durant's characteristics are also revealed. When he controls the number of shots between 16 and 20 times, he is very stable. He scores 25 to 30 points per game. He must be as stable as possible.
But in the recent period, Durant has thrown 25-6 times per game and has taken 30+ shots three times, raising the average number of shots per game to 22. Along with this, Durant has also scored extremely high during this period.
Unstable, he even shot 11 of 31 for 20 irons in a single game, and 8 of 29 for 21 irons in a single game.
In the first five years of Durant's career, he only had 20 irons in a single game twice when playing against the Lakers and Kobe Bryant. In just a dozen games, Durant equaled his single-game performance in the previous five years.
In addition to Durant's personal performance being affected, the Thunder's record is not as stable as it was at the beginning of the season. It was overtaken by the Nuggets and Spurs.
However, after entering the new year, the number of shots taken by Durant has stabilized again. He takes about 20 shots per game. He is unwilling to decrease, but he does not deliberately increase it...
This makes Sun Ce a little regretful. Durant's brain is really good when it comes to playing.
The Thunder currently rank first in the Western Conference with 26 wins and 8 losses, the Spurs rank second in the Western Conference with 26 wins and 9 losses, and the Grizzlies rank third in the Western Conference with 24 wins and 8 losses.
The gap is not very big, but it is not small either. Other teams have 15 to 17 games every month in November and December. The Grizzlies were too easy in the first two months, which means that every month from January to March
The monthly schedule is very tight.
After playing this easy game against the Kings, the Grizzlies came to Houston the next morning, rested for a few hours, and arrived at Toyota Center at 4 p.m. to start warming up and preparing for the game.
At 6:30 p.m., after 2 hours and 47 minutes of play, the Grizzlies narrowly defeated the Rockets 104-99 in overtime, winning their fourth consecutive victory and improving their record to 25 wins and 8 losses!
Anthony... Sun Ce has always felt that he is very capable, and Anthony performed very well tonight. In other words, as long as he plays on a top team, Anthony's performance this season will not be bad. Anthony will become a free agent this summer, so every time he meets
Strong teams work hard.
Anthony played 50 minutes tonight and scored 44 points on 15-of-32 shooting, raising his scoring average to 31.9 points per game.
Sun Ce played 37 minutes. Thanks to the coaching staff, he only played 32 minutes in regular time and still had the strength to continue to defend in overtime.
In 37 minutes of playing time, Sun Ce made 12 of 26 shots, including 4 of 10 three-pointers and 5 of 6 free throws. He scored exactly 33 points, maintaining an average of 33 points per game.
Sun Ce only played 32 minutes in regular time. Originally, he was leading by 16 points with 8 minutes left in the fourth quarter and felt it was very stable. Who knew that Anthony scored 15 points in the next 8 minutes and tied the score.
However, Anthony only scored two points in overtime and missed all 4 of his shots.
Sun Ce scored 33 points, 14 rebounds, 6 assists, 6 blocks and 2 steals to win the game!
After this game, Sun Ce's average blocks per game increased to 3.6, surpassing Ibaka!
…
…
In the scoring list, Sun Ce, who averaged 33 points per game, ranked first, ahead of Kobe Bryant, who averaged 32.2 points per game, and Anthony, who averaged 31.9 points per game.
In the rebounding list, Sun Ce, who averaged 13.6 rebounds per game, ranked first, ahead of Griffin, who averaged 12.8 rebounds per game, and Howard, who averaged 12.6 rebounds per game.
In the blocking list, Sun Ce, who averaged 3.63 blocks per game, ranked first, beating Ibaka, who averaged 3.61 blocks per game!
With this performance, even ESPN can only feel sour.
After entering 2013, Sun Ce's performance is impeccable, with a record of 5 wins and 1 loss. Sun Ce has stabilized his scoring and rebounding averages per game, and his shot-blocking list is still improving... You need records to have records, and you need personal performance to have personal performance.

The official Twitter of Sports Illustrated put a photo of Sun Ce and three-time MVP Larry Bird together without any accompanying text.
Sports Illustrated is half of the official media of the Lakers. James is the top favorite for MVP this season. If it can add to the trouble for James, it will naturally not miss the opportunity.
At this time, ESPN also stepped forward. After the Heat entered the new year, they won 6 games in 10 days! In addition to defeating the Knicks in the last game last month, the Heat once again won 7 consecutive games.
In these seven games, James averaged 30.3 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.6 assists, 2 steals, and 1.7 blocks per game... showing an invincible attitude!
…
Led by Sports Illustrated, a discussion began on the Internet about how difficult it is to win three consecutive MVP awards.
Originally, because Sun Ce won two consecutive MVPs last season and last season, people no longer put Sun Ce in the MVP discussion in the new season.
But by the middle of the season, Sun Ce's ferocious performance during this period suddenly put him back among the MVP contenders.
It’s just that it’s very difficult. The requirements for two consecutive MVPs are already much more difficult than those for an MVP. Three consecutive MVPs are even harder than two consecutive MVPs!
Stronger than Jordan, Magic, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, none of them have won three consecutive MVPs. In the last three consecutive seasons, Jordan won three consecutive scoring titles and a double team. His three-year record was 72 wins, 69 wins, and 62 wins, including 69 wins.
He didn't get the MVP in the season, but got 62 wins. It seemed that Jordan was intentionally given up for a year. In the year of 62 wins, Malone obviously performed better, but it seemed that he was intentionally supplying Jordan to prevent Malone from winning two consecutive MVPs, because
With Malone's performance, he has every chance to continue to compete for mvp next year...
The media and NBA officials seem to have an obsession with winning three consecutive MVPs. They don't want anyone to win three consecutive MVPs so easily, even the God of Basketball.
The public opinion was very lively, but Sun Ce, one of the parties involved, did not pay much attention to it and was on a cruel trip to Texas.
In the game against the Rockets, the Grizzlies played with all their main players, but when they almost sealed the victory, they were dragged into overtime, which cost a lot of money.
After playing the Rockets, the Grizzlies came to Dallas on the 11th, rested for a night, and started the third game of 4 games in 5 days on the 12th, challenging the Mavericks away.
Playing against two non-playoff teams, the Kings and Rockets, the Grizzlies must win. This is one of the few non-playoff opponents this month.
But against the Mavericks... you just have to fight hard.
Nash and Gasol took turns resting in this game.
The offensive core of the rotating lineup and the defensive core of the positional battle lineup rested. The Grizzlies played a bit miserably in this game, 93 to 104, and the Grizzlies' 4-game winning streak was ended.
Yao Ming, who played 28 minutes tonight and scored 20 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks on 7 of 12 shots, finally laughed. That smile made many domestic fans feel that it is not an easy task for the little bully to surpass Yao Ming!
