After the nine games on the penultimate game day last night, the East and West playoff rankings have come out.

In the East, the Bulls, Heat, Pacers, 76ers, Raptors, Nets, Knicks, and Hawks ranked in the top eight in the Eastern Conference in order and advanced to the playoffs.

The 41-win Wizards became the most tragic team in the East.

In the West, the Spurs won the regular season championship with a record of 63 wins and 19 losses. No one expected this before the All-Star Weekend, mainly because no one expected that the Pacers actually scored 10 wins and 19 after the All-Star Weekend.

With a loss record, the Lakers, with 61 wins, won the second place, the Trail Blazers, Grizzlies, Warriors, Thunder, Mavericks, and Jazz ranked third to eighth respectively, entering the playoffs.

The sad Pelicans scored 50 wins and 32 losses and missed the playoffs.

But the performance of the two top picks is indeed good. They must be talented and capable of fulfilling their strength. Moreover, the two of them have few injuries this season and have played more than 75 games. Their abilities are reflected in one go.

But the two were in the West miserably and were unable to compete with the Jazz team led by Thibodeau and Jimmy Butler in the end.

After the rankings are determined, the major lists are almost confirmed.

Scoring champion, Sun Ce, has just increased to 34 points since Durant scored only 44 points in the last game.

Since Sun Ce has not lost a single game this season, it is difficult for him to improve his average score. In the last game, he has to score 9 more points more than his average score to ensure an increase of 0.1 points. However, it is not so easy to lose his average score.

In the curtain call game of the Grizzlies, unless Sun Ce only scores below 5 points, the score will still be Sun Ce's, which means there is no suspense.

Rebound King, Jordan Jr. averaged 15.7 rebounds per game, beat Drummond with 15.4 rebounds per game, winning the rebound King.

As for assists, Westbrook, who averaged 11.7 assists per game, beat Paul, who averaged 11.4 assists per game, won the assists.

In terms of steal list, Paul averaged 2.6 steals per game and beat Paul George, who averaged 2.5 steals per game, to win the steal king.

The blocking king... Sun Ce has dominated four consecutive times! Even if Sun Ce blocks 0 in the last game, it cannot be shaken!

In addition, there are other predictions for awards. MVP was locked in last month. The Crazy March Lord Show even the limelight of NCAA was overshadowed, and there is no suspense.

Just like James, who won 30 consecutive games last season, would be squirted to death if he didn't win MVP. Sun Ce wouldn't win MVP this year, and the league would vomit blood. David Stern probably would take a few strong men to knock on those in the middle of the night.

Voters' door.

However, other awards are worth discussing.

In terms of best defensive players, ESPN prediction, Noah, Ibaka, Chandler, Paul George, Tabitt, Anthony Davis and... Duncan, these seven players became the favorites of best defensive players.

Among them, Ibaka, Paul George, Tabitt, and Anthony Davis were at a disadvantage due to record problems, while Noah, Chandler and Duncan had the highest probability.

When Sun Ce saw this prediction, he was speechless. Why is Duncan again?

Then, after a closer look, Duncan's All-Stars data rose instead of falling after the weekend! Average of 15.4 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3 assists, 2.2 blocks, 0.6 steals! And the turnovers and fouls were terrible 2.1 turnovers and 1.8 fouls.

In defensive efficiency, Duncan ranks second in the league behind LeBron James!

The reason why James is not the best defensive player is because James is just a simple defensive efficiency this year. Leonard is the defensive arrow on the outside, and Nene is the defensive arrow on the inside. With the series of defensive effects, James cannot be with Sun Ce.

Compared with Ibaka, he uses his personal abilities to defend more.

This season, James actually experienced a relatively large decline in the defensive end, mainly because he has less energy invested in the defensive end and has allocated more energy to scoring and passing.

There is no way, when you arrive at a wealthy and powerful house, James doesn't need to do so much work.

There are also the Best Sixth Person, the Fastest Progress Award, etc., which have also attracted much attention.

But on the afternoon of the 17th, no one discussed these things anymore. The media and fans focused all on the curtain call between the Grizzlies and the Mavericks!

...

At 6:40 pm, after receiving a pre-match interview, the players of both teams entered the stadium.

Nowitzki chatted with Sun Ce in a suit, who had taken off his training suit, and did not delay Sun Ce's preparation for the competition.

Looking at Sun Ce who was shooting hot, Nowitzki was very moved. It was too exaggerating to this guy, and he felt like he was ahead of their time!

When Sun Ce got MVP in the second grade, Nowitzki felt that Sun Ce's future was limitless, but he didn't expect Sun Ce to perform like this.

Even if Sun Ce had two MVPs in a row, after completing two consecutive championships last season, Nowitzki would not have thought that Sun Ce could play like this this season.

Sun Ce’s changes this year are described as words that Nowitzki learned from Yao Ming – one step ahead of the sky!

And Sun Ce is only 24 and a half years old...

There is also this era, Nowitzki really didn't expect that Conley, he, and Bosh, he was only ranked seventh in the West!

Judging from the top eight of the Western Conference this season, Nowitzki feels that at least this season is the most brutal moment in the Western Conference he has encountered in his career.

From the first to the sixth place, they are too strong!

Nowitzki's rest in this game tonight is mainly because he has already locked in the seventh place in the West, so there is no need to continue playing. Moreover, he is originally a substitute and is expected to win the best sixth man this year... and it is highly likely because he is a substitute.

He beat Bosh and was selected as the All-Star.

At this moment, Nowitzki is ready to be a fan to see if Sun Ce can continue to create history after Westbrook.

There are many celebrities who came to watch the game tonight. After the Warriors lost to the Thunder last night, the whole team flew to Memphis early this morning to prepare for the playoffs that started on the 21st.

After the ranking was determined, the NBA official announced the playoff schedule last night. The first game of the Grizzlies and Warriors' series will start at 8 pm on the 21st.

Today, several players of the Warriors came to watch the game on site, as well as local politicians in Tennessee, some performing artists who like basketball and want to see big scenes with their own eyes, and even the US president updated Twitter and posted a few photos.

His signature to complete the work, the drink nut TV...the caption is "I'm ready."

This can be seen as the US President is ready to watch the game, but it can also be interpreted as a tribute to Sun Ce once said - I will never say every night that I am not ready.

In addition to these people, there are also some players who are preparing to get the popularity, who use their connections or spend money to get tickets from the front row and come to the scene to get the camera.

Bosh looked at the scene and found that there was something wrong with his cognition. Is this the same Mengcun?

Sun Ce, with his own strength, turned the large rural Memphis into the spotlight!

Don't worry about him, take advantage of the popularity first.

On the other hand, after Sun Ce exchanged greetings with Nowitzki, Conley, Carter, Ellis and others, the Grizzlies made an exception before the game and asked him to be interviewed. When asked whether he would make 18 assists tonight,

Sun Ce did not deny it and said bluntly: "I remember I was the holder of the playoff assist record, and I was still three short of the regular season. I can't remember it very clearly. I seem to have scored 27 assists in the regular season? I don't like challenging the record so much.

But the records always run towards me...I'll go!"

Sun Ce was so scared that he burst out with Chinese words. A head stretched out from his side, like Orochimaru!

After a closer look, it was Bosh. The long-necked dragon did not touch Sun Ce on his shoulders and chest, and put his head parallel to Sun Ce's head...

Seeing that Sun Ce was scared, Bosh tidied his hair and turned around and left...

Sun Ce thought of James' funny guy, looking at Bosh, who was a little mentally retarded in front of him, and felt very sympathetic to Wade. In the past three years, what kind of dire environment Wade was in?

I heard that a No. 24 player in Los Angeles was almost driven crazy by his best teammate since O'Neal.

Who can stand it if you go to his house to get wifi every day?

Kobe wanted to learn to play Lol but was caused by his best teammates to delay from time to time.

...

At 6:58 pm, before the game, he greeted the opponent, greeted the public figures, accepted interviews, etc. After a series of things, Sun Ce put on his equipment and prepared to play.

Tonight, the Grizzlies' Livingston, Tony Allen, Paul George, and Prince rested four times, and Gobert was on the activation list.

Sun Ce, Klay Thompson, Hardaway Jr., Richard Jefferson, and Yi Jianlian's starting lineup made its debut.

Putting aside the four players who were resting and Gobert, the players in other Grizzlies' shopping malls are either receiving the ball and eating cakes, or pitchers. Yi Jianlian and Hardaway have singles ability, but they are not allowed to do so. For example, Yi Jianlian won three.

They will definitely not play singles if they have no time to pass the ball when they are offensive rebounds.

Beverly, Richard Jefferson, Amir Johnson, Larry Sanders, and Whiteside on the bench are all players who eat cakes and catch shots as their main scoring methods.

The purpose of this rotation is very clear.

Coach Hollins didn't say it, but told Sun Ce with practical actions - Coach, I'm ready, you can do it!

The Mavericks, Conley, Ellis, Marion, Bosh, and Dalemport's starting lineup made its debut.

Sun Ce really feels that apart from Nowitzki's age problem, the Mavericks are really strong!

The Mavericks defeated them in the first three matches this season. They have their own reasons, but the Mavericks can seize the opportunity because of the Mavericks' strength.

In addition to Nowitzki, the Mavericks' bench also includes Carter, Calderon, Harris, Blair, Ellington, Brandon White...

The sixth-man scoring champion who averaged 20 points tonight is also the Mavericks' scoring champion Nowitzki, who does not play, is good news for them.

At 7 pm, the referee blew the whistle at the beginning of the game on time and threw the ball into the air. Amid the cheers of the fans of the audience, Yi Jianlian beat Delhamport to win the jump ball.

Sun Ce received the ball and advanced quickly towards the frontcourt. After crossing the center line, he increased his speed to the fastest and headed straight into the opponent's three-point line!

It's been a long time since I played like this, Sun Ce is a little excited. The Mavericks' overall defense is very good, not as the top few in the league, but each player's defensive enthusiasm and execution are very good. Marion and Bosh are on the left side of the three-second zone

He stopped Sun Ce and cut off Sun Ce's chance to get Yi Jianlian from the basket, and Dalemport followed Richard Jefferson closely.

Very beautiful defense.

However, Yi Jianlian's judgment was keen and did not cut into the inside line. Instead, he ran back from the free throw line to help Klay Thompson block Conley, and Klay Thompson ran to the right sideline!

Sun Ce made a long pass, Klay Thompson received the ball and made a three-pointer... hit!

At the beginning, the Grizzlies played the Mavericks but had not yet established a foothold, and Sun Ce's assist was settled.

Looking back, Ellis had a good offensive condition at the start, and his teammates pulled away. Ellis broke through to the basket and made a layup against Sun Ce and Yi Jianlian.

He is known as the second strongest waist from Kobe! Ellis folded in the air like a twist.
