I Don’t Want to be the Boss

The game against the Pelicans made Sun Ce vigilant and the gap in strength seemed to be large, but the opponent would also find a way, and teams like the Warriors and Thunder really have a chance to beat them in the playoffs !

　　Even if their Grizzlies have a strength advantage, the opponent can also find ways to close the strength gap and play for the stars through tactical changes, strategic adjustments, and even psychological warfare.

Now that the Grizzlies are about to face a real championship winning team, they have an advantage, a good record, and their strength must be stronger, but the disadvantage is that they are more passive, because they have been winning, and the other party will find ways to restrain them The strong points they play, when they face these opponents, there are not many places that can be adjusted targetedly, and they are often continued to strengthen the advantages of the regular season.

　　 This is the safest way. You cannot always know that you can play an advantage and do not fight, but try to change probabilistically.

　　 Back to the hotel, Sun Ce took a bath, lazily lay in bed, used a tablet to chat with the two girls on the video, looked at the younger two cubs, and afterwards coaxed Xiaowufan to sleep, began to brush the news.

Previously, he devoted himself to the series with the Pelicans. In addition to the scores, he did not pay too much attention to the specific situation of other opponents. Obviously, he has such a huge strength advantage. Sun Ce does not want to be stolen by the opponent like the Lakers. A victory, first The court gave him enough vigilance, and the opposite side had been sneakily waiting for their lax time.

In the other series, the Hawks advanced before the Grizzlies. They swept the Pistons on the 27th. They were the first team to advance. Their game started first, and they swept their opponents. Naturally, they were the first to advance. .

　　 Other series did not care so much. Sun Ce first looked at the detailed reports of the Warriors and Thunder in the past four games.

　　The Warriors struggled to defend at home for the second time, winning 98-95, and Durant's three-point equalizer failed to score before winning. If they enter overtime, they may be exhausted by Westbrook's wild physical strength.

No, in the next three games, the Thunder returned to the first game at home. The Thunder defeated the Warriors 112 to 97. The fourth game in the series, the second home of the Thunder, the Thunder defeated the Warriors 95 to 91. team.

In these three games, both teams were playing defense. In the Battle of the Heavenly Kings, the Warriors prepared to change their strategy and attack. This allowed the Warriors to regain their advantage, and also used the speed to bring down Westbrook's offense. In the regular time, Westbrook shot only 11 of 27 shots, but Durant dragged the game into overtime.

　　 Then, there was a super performance of Westbrook's 50+ triple-double, leading the Thunder to win the battle of Mount Tianwang through double overtime on the road.

　　 played 5 games, and there were 4 games with regular time points within 5 points. One of them also played double overtime. The strength of the two teams is almost the same, and the performance of the stars is also equivalent.

Durant averaged 28 points and 7 rebounds, Westbrook averaged 27+9.4+9.6, Curry averaged 27.8 points and 5 assists, Harden averaged 31.4 points and 7.8 rebounds and 6 assists... Both superstars performed very well .

The Thunder’s Ibaka, Adams, Low Wights, Morrow, Nick Collison, Carl Landry, DJ Augustin and others, and the Warriors’ Drummond Green , Tabit, Salinger, Iguodala, Harrison Barnes, Speight and others played hard and indistinguishable.

　　 This series of series, after the battle of Tianwang Mountain, has been called the best-looking series in the first round of this year.

The intensity and enjoyment even exceeded the Spurs and Mavericks fossil superstar. After playing three games in the first round, as the Grizzlies and Pelicans heat down, the Warriors and Thunder continue to rise. The first In the round until now, except for the Grizzlies who have maintained a very high average paid viewership in the first two games, the Warriors and Thunder series are the only group of popular matchups with an average paid viewership of more than 15 million per game.

　　 When he played the Pelicans, he was fully devoted, but people are always greedy, and now Sun Ce has lost some regrets and failed to see the live broadcast of the first five games of this series.

　　 Fortunately, the next two games must be watched, and after returning to Memphis, the whole team watched together. The less fun part is that after the game, there is a team discussion and the whole team analyzes together.

A team of more than a dozen players, compared to the scouts who have a fixed view of a team, and routinely analyzing a team whose coach is only from the perspective of an outsider, may have some different opinions. It's good.

　　When Sun Ce learned of this arrangement, he felt that his team was very different from the past.

　　 The better the results this year, the more cautious the coaching staff!

　　 Such caution is necessary in Sun Ce's opinion!

　　 After the Grizzlies, they were promoted by the Bulls, and there was no suspense to sweep the Celtics to the second round 4-0.

　　On April 29th, Sun Ce and his teammates returned to Memphis. Tomorrow the Warriors and Thunder will play the sixth game of the series. For this game, Sun Ce has an eagerness to watch the game.

　　 But the schedule is like this, and this arrangement has an advantage for the team that is ranked first and second in the east and west! Very big advantage.

The first and second teams in the East and West, after the first two home games, have a two-day rest between Game 2 and Game 3, and another two-day rest between Game 3 and Game 4, unless There were no points in the first 4 games, followed by every other day.

This undoubtedly reduces the probability that the East and West will be hacked. Even if the East and West are extremely bad at the beginning, they will have enough time to adjust in the first four games. It must be the strongest in the East and West during the regular season. In the face of the eighth, there is more adjustment time in the early stage. Even if it is dragged to the next three games, the advantage will gradually come back.

But for the three or four teams in the East and West, for them, the new playoff format is not so good for them. The first five games were all played the next day and only played in Game 6. In order to get a two-day break between games 5 and 6, games 6 and 7.

Since the fourth and fifth most probabilities will be of equal strength, and the third and sixth strength gap is also smaller than the strength difference between the top two in the east and the west and their opponents, then it is possible to play five or six games and complete five or six games. The first and second teams in the East and West have just been promoted shortly, and the status may be better, ensuring the second round's wonderful level.

　　 Such changes are only in the first round, and there is no change from the beginning of the second round.

　　Sun Ce likes this kind of change. They worked so hard in the regular season to get a good record. In the first round, he has such an advantage as he deserves!

　　 But for Sun Ce’s urgency to watch the game now, he doesn’t like the arrangement so much.

　　 But there was no choice but to restrain his temper. After a day of rest on the 29th, Sun Ce began personal training on the morning of the 30th.

The intensity of the playoffs really trains a player. Sun Ce also found many deficiencies in the game against the Pelicans. What he can do is not enough in his opinion. Practice more and grind the gun. Unhappy and light.

　　Taking advantage of the clearest understanding of his own shortcomings now, practice more, and even let Zuge help take notes, which can be strengthened in the off-season.

　　 For his career, Sun Ce is becoming more organized in short-term planning.

　　 In the evening, Sun Ce's next opponent's game started most closely.

　　 After 2 hours and 27 minutes, the Warriors beat the Thunder 117-101 away, and strongly pulled the score to 3-3!

　　The next two teams will have a tiebreaker on May 2.

Iguodala scored 30 points in a single game tonight, refreshing his personal career playoff scoring record high. After watching the game, Sun Ce couldn't help but check the individual scoring situation of Iguodala in the playoffs. For the first time in his career, he scored 30 points in a playoff game!

　　In the first five games of this series, Iguodala added up to 31 points, and almost broke in one game.

　　When the Warriors lost another game and were to be eliminated, Iguodala opened the coffin board and stood up! 30 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 3 steals. This performance, if the team is the star, can only be said to play well in the playoffs~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but for Iguodala this regular season averages 7+3+ 3 players are crazy!

He is not the most important one in the Warriors in scoring, passing, and rebounding. Each item is only fourth and fifth in the team. His role is to defend and play the role of connecting the team, but these two He is not the most powerful in the league, so when Iguodala played such a performance, how good the Warriors' performance is! Both ends of the attack and defense have obvious advantages.

　　 watched the live broadcast of this game all the time, Sun Ce looked so good, I really wish I could play the game myself.

　　 In addition to watching the Warriors and Thunder games today, Sun Ce is very happy, there is one more happy thing.

　　At 4pm today, the official NBA voting for the regular season MVP and best rookie was over!

　　 Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, the NBA official will announce the award!

　　Although from all angles, Sun Ce feels that his MVP is nailed, and will become the player with the most MVPs in the regular season instead of sharing "one" with James, but by this time, he is really a little worried.

Prior to this, some awards have been announced. Grizzlies coach Leonard Hollins won the second best coaching career. Last time, they won 55 games in the 11-12 season. A strong performance of 11 losses was the second lowest record in a single season in NBA history.

　　 Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace won Aldridge by a generous 7-for-1, and he also did a good job in reinforcements, winning the best manager award of the season!

　　 This year they have a good record, and the team is also a bumper harvest!
