1220. Suffocating Pressure (Part 5
With 31 wins and 11 losses, the Grizzlies beat the Nuggets, which had 32 wins and 12 losses, ranked fourth in the Western Conference.
The difficult mid-season continued, with the Grizzlies ushering in their last back-to-back in January on the 29th and 30th. The most difficult period of the first half of the season is finally over.
Although there is still 14 days and 7 days before the All-Star Weekend in February, at least it is an average of two days per game, and there is only one home court back-to-back, "Dawn" is coming!
In the past 15 games, 11 wins and 4 losses, it is generally not bad. I have won 31 wins at present, which is much better than the expected record in January!
The Grizzlies have made the possibility of falling out of the top four in the first half and even slightly away from the top four. However, unexpectedly, the other four teams in the top five in the West have achieved record soaring to the East.
In the top four, except for the Heat, they can still sit in the fourth place, and the gap is not that big from the Thunder, which is the No. 1 in the West.
...
On the 29th, after a day off, the Grizzlies ushered in a game against the Nets at home.
A few days ago, I finally played a single game of more than 130 points, and I returned them all tonight.
73-77, the Grizzlies lost to the Nets at home and failed to continue their winning streak.
It seems that the cold touch of the Blazers continued. Sun Ce made 7 of 20 shots tonight and scored only 22 points. Although he still had 21 rebounds, 4 blocks and 4 steals, the Grizzlies only scored in double scores.
Moreover, only two players from both teams scored in double digits!
On the Grizzlies, Nash, Randolph, Paul George, who was stabbed with his finger, the three of them didn't play, and no other players scored in double digits.
On the Nets, Deron was defeated by Sun Ce and Jimmy Butler, and Gasol Jr., and scored 9 points in a single game, but Joe Johnson scored 28 points with mid-range shots to help the Nets win the game.
Fortunately, when it was No. 30, when playing against the Hornets, Sun Ce felt refreshed, made 13 of 24 shots, including 5 of 7 three-pointers, plus 5 free throws, and scored 36 points, 16 rebounds and 10 assists.
Increase assists to double digits before leaving the court for a break.
Relying on Sun Ce's large triple-double, the Grizzlies beat the Hornets 107-91, and at the same time gave Irving a belated welcome ceremony.
With a record of 32 wins and 12 losses, the Grizzlies have achieved a beautiful finish this month.
...
It’s not great to have a record of 12 wins and 5 losses in January, but Sun Ce’s personal data is irritable!
This month, Sun Ce has 5 triple-doubles. With this triple-double that played against the Hornets, Sun Ce's triple-doubles increased to 10 times this season, tying Westbrook again!
During this difficult month of the game, Sun Ce stabilized his declining average score, and the decline was not as big as the other two competitors.
Currently, Sun Ce averages 32.9 points per game, still ranks first in the league. Anthony overtakes Kobe, ranking second in average 31.9 points per game, Kobe ranked third in average 31.7 points per game, and Durant ranked fourth in average 31.2 points per game.
After that, James ranked fifth in 28.1 points per game, with Curry 25.4 points and Griffin 25.1 points in seventh.
In terms of rebounding and blocking, Sun Ce relies on the team's defense this month to open a gap with the opponents behind him!
Average of 13.9 rebounds per game, almost reaching 14 rebounds per game. Randolph recovered in form and played more time. Sun Ce has the most stable teammates to be accused. Compared to being accused, no one can do it on the Grizzlies.
It's better than Randolph. He opened the Blazers' 7 offensive rebounds in a single game, but only 9 rebounds, which shows his ability to get a rebound in the backcourt.
In the block list, Sun Ce averaged 3.66 blocks per game, leading second-leading Ibaka averaged more than 0.1 blocks per game!
In other words, Ibaka must have at least 9 blocks in a game and maintain the current average number of blocks in order to catch up with him.
Sun Ce's record is still OK, and his data soared, with averaging 32.9 points, 13.9 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 3.6 blocks, 1.95 steals per game, with a shooting percentage of 43.7%, and a three-point shooting percentage of 3%.
Sixteen:8, overall, it has smoothly maintained the crazy performance of the easy schedule in the first two months of the season, which is eye-catching.
However, on the night when the Grizzlies defeated the Hornets and ended the January game, the Heat won 15 consecutive games...
Break the 14-game winning streak record for the new decade set by the Spurs and the Grizzlies in the 10-11 season!
Sun Ce vaguely remembered something, as if James's peak season had set the second consecutive win record in history at that time!
In the past two weeks, James has continued to dominate the MVP rankings, winning the best week for four consecutive weeks, increasing the number of best weekly times in a single season to 7 times, just two times away from Sun Ce’s 9 best weekly record.
It's...
The opponent's performance was shockingly good! The Heat won all 14 games this month, plus the last game last month, winning 15 consecutive victories.
The Heat's winning streak and James' personal performance brought a suffocating sense of oppression to Sun Ze, Durant, Ross, Evans, Kobe... and Duncan, MVP competitors.
It may not be possible that O'Neal, the era superstar, had strong dominance in the season, which was the strongest season... Of course, there are probably no two players in NBA history who have stronger dominance than O'Neal in that season, and Jordan may not be able to come.
.
But James, who has good teammates and his personal abilities reach its peak, interprets what a true era-level superstar is!
Just like Paul, who beat Kobe in the 2007-08 season, who played his best performance so far before he was seriously injured, Duncan beat Kobe in the 2002-03 season, who averaged 40+ per game per month, the SS-level James made Sun Ce feel
It's a suffocating feeling of oppression.
On January 31, Sun Ce looked at the news of the Heat's 15 consecutive wins last night, and thought that James and Duncan won the Best of the Week yesterday, and didn't know what language to use to describe his mood.
Sun Ce doesn't pay attention to this, just try his best to fight. The three-game MVP is a dream-like existence. As a foreign player, the difficulty can be imagined.
...
When I woke up in the morning, I talked to Lily Collins and my mother. Sun Ce sent Zue to the school and then came to the stadium to prepare for the battle.
The game in January is over, but the schedule continues. There are 7 games before the All-Star Weekend, and tomorrow will be the first day of the new month, with the Thunder.
Unlike the Spurs who only need to draw in the regular season, Sun Ce will have to win all three games in the next game with the Thunder.
But there is another big thing today. Randolph was not in the state of training in the morning. Coach Hollins knew why, so he finished the training early and practiced in the afternoon.
