Chapter 142 The end of the regular season

At 4:19 am on April 10, the game between the Grizzlies and the Clippers officially began at the FedEx Arena.

This game is a live broadcast between China and the United States, and the attention of the outside world is very large.

Because the current record of the Grizzlies is ranked third in the West, and the Clippers are currently ranked sixth in the West. That is to say, this game is an early preview of the playoffs of the two teams.

The Clippers sent point guard: Cassell, shooting guard: Mobley, small forward: Maggette, power forward: Brand, center: Kaman.

Through the technical analysis the day before the game, the Grizzlies deployed a twin-tower lineup of Yang Zhan + Eddie Jones + Battier + Gasol + Chakalidis.

I thought it was a battle of the century regardless of you and me, but it turned out that Jones and Battier of the Grizzlies at the beginning felt really good.

At the beginning, it was fine to make an open shot, but later on he made all the shots, and then the substitute players came up, and they kept making three-pointers.

When the score opened up in the fourth quarter, Gasol tried to throw in a three-pointer at the top of the arc. I don't know what happened today.

As a result, with the Grizzlies feeling so good, the situation of the game was naturally one-sided. In the end, the Grizzlies beat the Clippers by 108 points 91 to 17.

The news media after the game were all talking about the Grizzlies, but in fact, anyone with a discerning eye knew what was going on. The strength of the two teams was simply not seen in this game because of the Grizzlies' feel.

At eight o'clock that night, with the Lakers narrowly beating the Pacers 99 to 97, the regular season competition has all come to an end.

The league officially announced the rankings of each team in the regular season this season. The Detroit Pistons in the East rank first in the league.

They're 64-18, while the Spurs in the West are 63-19, just one game away.

The second place in the East is the Heat led by Wade and O'Neal. Their record this season is 52 wins and 30 losses.

The third in the Eastern Conference is the Nets led by the Trident. Their record this season is 51 wins and 31 losses.

The fourth place in the Eastern Conference is the Cleveland Cavaliers led by James Jr. This season, they have a record of 50 wins and 32 losses.

The fifth is the Washington Wizards, the sixth is the Indiana Pacers, the seventh is the Chicago Bulls, and the eighth is the Milwaukee Bucks.

It is a pity that the Philadelphia team led by Iverson and Webber did not enter the playoffs. Their score was 39 wins and 43 losses, and the Bucks were 30 wins and 42 losses, which was only one win away.

The first place in the West is the San Antonio Spurs.

Ranked second is the Suns, led by Nash, who came from behind. Their record this season is 54 wins and 28 losses.

Ranked third is the Memphis Grizzlies, with a record of 52 wins and 30 losses this season. Normally, the Grizzlies ranked fifth in the West, and that Grizzlies did not have Yang Zhan and Nelson.

Ranked fourth is the Mavericks, who messed up their tactics in order to study tactics. Their record this season is 50 wins and 32 losses.

The fifth is the Denver Nuggets, the sixth is the Los Angeles Clippers, the seventh is the Los Angeles Lakers, and the eighth is the Sacramento Kings.

Before the start of the playoffs, all teams will have two days of rest to adjust their status, and the Grizzlies' in-team training has also begun to decrease, and the coaching staff is more tired, and they are always studying their opponents crazily.

Since the end of the regular season, the major awards have begun to be announced.

Kobe Bryant, who averaged 35.4 points per game, won the scoring title, followed by Iverson, who averaged 33 points per game.

The rebounding champion was taken by Hanamichi Sakuragi, wrong, it was won by Garnett, who averaged 12.7 rebounds per game.

Ranked second is Howard, who averaged 12.5 rebounds per game, with a gap of only 0.2. It is worth mentioning that this is only the second season of his career.

The assist king was taken away by Steve Nash without any suspense, with an average of 10.5 assists per game, followed by Brian Knight with an average of 8.8 assists per game.

Of course, it doesn't matter, because there is someone Yang in this list, with an average of 7.5 assists per game and ranking seventh.

Although Paul ranked ahead of Yang Zhan with an average of 7.8 assists per game, I was still very happy because I pretended not to watch anything.

Kirilenko won the block leader, and Brevin Knight won the steals leader.

In the turnover list, Arenas, who averaged 3.7 turnovers per game, firmly held the first place, averaging 6.1 assists per game. This turnover ratio is no one else.

Three-pointer list Ray Allen won No.3.4 with an absolute advantage of averaging 1 three-pointers per game.

In the efficiency list, James and Nowitzki tied for first place with a score of 28.1.

On April 4, ESPN also made a list of early predictions for the playoffs. The Spurs and Pistons ranked first in the two teams.

They believe that the ending will be the same as last year. The final will still be a competition between two teams, and the championship will still be won by the Spurs.

The main reason given was that, towards the end of the season, there were some signs of disorder in Detroit.

Ben Wallace, who won the best defensive player 5 times in 4 years, terminated the new contract negotiations with the team, implying that he requested to leave the team.

The outbreak of such a thing before the playoffs will definitely have an impact on the entire team, and the Spurs will also win the first consecutive championship in history.

As for the Grizzlies and Clippers, their evaluation is that the Grizzlies won 4 to 3, but at most they can only go through the first round.

The reason is that the Clippers have not made the playoffs for many years, and it will be difficult to adapt to the intensity for a while. Although the Grizzlies played in the first two seasons, they have at least playoff experience.

However, only Yang Zhan knows that if they develop according to the normal trajectory, they will reach the Western Conference Finals this year.

Looking at the phone, Yang Zhan thought in his heart, "It depends on how much history can be changed by my appearance, Yang Zhan!"

Ding!Release the system task, "overturn history."

Task requirements: Eliminate the Clippers in the first round of the playoffs.

Mission reward: Elton Brand player card for this season.

I just sighed and pretended to be forceful, how could I blow up all of them!
