After a huge away loss to the Magic, all members of the Warriors returned to Oakland in disgrace.

At the same time, the impact of losing the game began to slowly unfold.

At the summary meeting the next day, Nelson began to criticize some players.

"In the last game, we exposed a lot of problems that need to be solved in the next time.

But the first thing that needs to be resolved is the attitude of some players.

If this problem is not solved, it will be difficult for us to win!"

After Nelson finished speaking, the Warriors players all knew who he was talking about.

It can be said that the intensity of these two preseason games is not high. As long as you are a little more serious, you can produce good data.

However, Bidelins played 25 minutes per game and only scored 4.5 points and 5.5 rebounds, which did not achieve the expected results at all.

On the defensive end, this guy is simply a defensive black hole, without any enthusiasm. After physical confrontation, he is like a soft-footed shrimp, falling down at the first touch.

Sun Yi didn't even know how much dirty work he had done for this guy.

"Andris, I will give you one last chance. If you still don't correct your attitude, I will have to make you play on the bench." Nelson said to Biedrins.

Biedrins nodded, then lowered his head and said nothing, not knowing what he was thinking.

Later, Nelson named several players for public criticism.

After teaching the players a lesson, they began to gradually solve the problems exposed in the previous game.

A few hours later, the criticism meeting ended, and Nelson asked the players to go back and reflect on their experiences and sum up their experiences and lessons.

After the disbandment, Warriors players did not leave the arena as early as usual.

They stay in the training hall one by one for additional training. Although they cannot improve their own strength in a short time, they can at least correct their attitude.

…

…

In the third game of the preseason, the Warriors faced the Memphis Grizzlies at home.

Biedrins still started the game, and this was Nelson's chance to redeem himself.

If he continues to fail, he will have no choice but to sit on the bench and play a rotation role.

Perhaps it was God's blessing, and Biedrins was very lucky.

The Grizzlies did not send all their main players to Oakland.

Randolph, Rudy Gay, Marc Gasol and others missed this game.

The Grizzlies' starting center is Hasheem Thabeet, this year's second overall pick.

Biedrins smiled from ear to ear after seeing the Grizzlies' starting lineup. It was finally his turn to eat dumplings.

He was very confident against the rookies and felt that he would not overturn.

If you meet a rookie like Sun Yi, that's a different matter, but the chance of this is really too low.

Moreover, Biedrins did his homework before the game and did some research on the Grizzlies' insiders.

If he meets Randolph and Gasol, he is likely to stretch his hips again, but when he meets Thabeet, his confidence greatly increases.

Because Thabeet's hips were very stretched in the first two games, he seemed unable to adapt to the NBA's confrontation and played very poorly. He has been labeled as a "parallel importer" by the outside world.

After the game started, the well-prepared Warriors had the upper hand.

All the Warriors players were holding back their energy, just waiting to vent it on the Grizzlies.

Among them, Biedrins was the most active, completely different from before.

Whether on the offensive or defensive end, the efficiency has improved a lot.

When Old Nelson saw this scene, he smiled happily.

Obviously, his words had an effect, and Biedrins changed his mind and gradually recovered.

Sun Yi and others were also very happy when they saw this.

Teammates have regained their form, allowing them to play more easily.

In the subsequent games, the Warriors played more like a unit, sharing the ball selflessly and passing the ball to the best position to end the offense.

The Grizzlies rely on a variety of isolations and rarely see pass-cut coordination.

But singles tactics are extremely unstable, and once the hit rate drops, there will be a power outage.

It didn't take long before the Grizzlies' shooting percentage began to slowly decline, and there were continuous hits.

The Warriors took this opportunity to quickly launch defensive counterattacks, score frequently, and widen the point difference in one fell swoop.

The Grizzlies offense is very slow and not good at three-point shooting.

Therefore, it was difficult for them to catch up and could only rely on two points to slowly narrow the gap.

But the Warriors didn't give the Grizzlies a chance at all, speeding up the tempo of the game and taking the Grizzlies players back and forth.

And, looking like they were about to catch up, Bang Bang Bang scored a few goals to widen the gap again.

In this way, the Grizzlies players were almost exhausted and had no intention of chasing points.

It’s just a pre-season game, and you’re still playing attrition tactics. It’s really dirty!

Just when I thought the game would go on without incident, something unexpected happened on the field.

During a fast break, Curry quickly dribbled the ball forward, came outside the three-point line to attract the defense, and then hit the ball to the ground and passed it to Biedrins, who came from behind.

After receiving the pass, Biedrins saw no one at the basket and wanted to slam dunk to announce his return as the king.

So, he rushed towards the basket with all his strength, jumped off one foot, flew in the air and made a one-handed dunk gesture, and had already thought about what kind of celebration action he should do in his mind.

Bang!

Biedrins dunked the ball into the basket, but something unexpected happened when it landed.

Perhaps because he rushed too hard and failed to hold on to the basket, he lost his balance in the air and fell heavily to the floor.

There were bursts of exclamations from the audience.

Fans put their hands together and silently prayed for Biedrins, hoping he would be okay.

On the court, when the referee saw an emergency, he immediately stopped the game and asked the Warriors' team doctor to come on and check the situation.

Sun Yi and other Warriors players also gathered around.

When they saw Biedrins lying on the floor with his arms folded and wailing,

On the Warriors bench, Nelson frowned, obviously he didn't want to see this happen.

Biedrins finally returned to form, but if he is accidentally injured, it will still have some impact on the Warriors.

After the team doctor checked Biedrins' injury, he waved to the sidelines and the prepared stretcher team quickly entered the field to carry him.

After Biedrins was taken off the field, the game continued.

After that, the movements of both players were much smaller.

After all, this is just an insignificant preseason game, so there is no need to work hard for it.

In this way, the Warriors maintained their lead until the end.

In the end, the Warriors defeated the Grizzlies 112-94.

In terms of data, Sun Yi's performance is still very stable.

In the 28 minutes he played, he scored 28 points, 11 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks.

Sun Yi's statistics in this game have improved a lot compared to the previous game, but that doesn't mean anything.

It's just that his opponent is a second-round player from the 2008 class, and the gap is obvious in all aspects.

Moreover, Thabeet, who was helping to defend the basket, was very stretched out, making it easy for Sun Yi to break into the penalty area.

If he encounters tough guys like Garnett and Duncan, Sun Yi will probably be beaten to death.

Fortunately, the Warriors' preseason opponents did not have these strong teams, otherwise Sun Yi would have been labeled a "parallel import" by the outside world.

Curry, one of the Warriors' twin stars, recovered in this game, produced beautiful data, and used practical actions to defeat the doubts from the outside world.

In the 30 minutes he played, he scored a double-double of 22 points, 10 assists and 3 steals.

Most of the assists from primary school students come from Sun Yi. As long as the ball is passed to Sun Yi's hands, you can basically get an assist. It is very simple to get one.

After this game, the Warriors were even worse. Some of the problems that had been exposed had not yet been resolved, and the main players suffered injuries and faced the possibility of being reimbursed for the season.
