More and more players trigger safety and health protocols! Let the NBA excitement this season, greatly reduced, the team fight between the no longer strength, but health, is luck.
Is there anything more embarrassing than him? Injured and missed 10 games, the team defended no. 1 in the league and the plus-minus league no. 1
Looking at the current Western Conference rankings, there is a team that is very surprising, the Grizzlies, who rank 4th in the West, to know that the Grizzlies have exchanged Valan Yunus for Adams this summer, and their strength has actually declined.
The Grizzlies have only paid 114 million total this season, the league's third-to-last, just higher than the Thunder and Magic.
As a result, the Grizzlies currently have the highest record in the West, and it is even more incomprehensible.
The team boss Morant was injured and hung up the exemption card after November 27, and during this period, the Grizzlies record was 9 wins and 1 loss, it was really not terrible to win, who was embarrassed.
The Grizzlies have played in their last 10 games, and how well they have played, take a look at the statistics below.
One, the opponent
See the Grizzlies in 9 games against opponents, 76ers, Trail Blazers, Rockets, Lakers, Heat, Lone Rangers, Thunder, Raptors, Kings. Well, the winnings are full of gold.
Third, defensive efficiency
In the last 10 games, the Grizzlies have a defensive efficiency of 96.6, ranking no. 1 in the league and the only team with a defensive efficiency of less than 100.
Fourth, positive and negative values
In the last 10 games, the Grizzlies have a plus-minus of +18.6, ranking first in the league. Above the Jazz with 8 consecutive wins. Why Morant is not there, the Grizzlies will play better, there may be three reasons.
One, the offensive end
Unlike most teams, most teams are bosses and other players can't stand up, while the Grizzlies are Morant's absence, and the other Grizzlies players inspire more energy.
Jalen Jackson, who has averaged 16 points per game in the season and 19.8 points in the last 10 games
Bain, who has averaged 16 points per game this season and 17.7 points in the last 10 games
Clark, who has averaged 7.7 points per game in the season and 10.7 points in the last 10 games
Jones, who has averaged 7.7 points per game in the season and 10.5 points in the last 10 games
Morant is out, and the Grizzlies are not one person on top, but everyone is on top.
Second, the defensive end
Before Morant was injured, the defensive efficiency was 116.8, the team was 1st to 1st, and now it is still 1st to the bottom, and Morant's absence has made the team's defense better. There is nothing wrong with this, replacing Jones, who started with Morant, the offense cannot be compared with Morant. But the defensive efficiency is 105.6, ranking 5th in the team.
Three, the head coach
You have to say that Grizzlies head coach Jenkins is a really good head coach, the team has formed a real system, even if the boss is missing, the team's offensive and defensive system is still there, and everyone is doing their part. That's what makes a head coach great.
Of course, absolutely not to say, let alone dare to say, and it is impossible to say, Morant is superfluous for the Grizzlies, Morant is the cornerstone of the team comparable to Doncic, Trey Young, Tatum, and the young man's hard work, fierceness, and tenacity on Morant are really too likable.
Morant is the bear of this young Grizzlies, and by the time it comes to the playoffs, the Grizzlies need Morant's hard power, big heart, and the strength to not accept defeat.
At the end of the article, like Morant, like this young Grizzlies. The Grizzlies are a role model for all teams rebuilding small-ball city.
Fans, how far can the Grizzlies go this season? If you could only choose one as the rebuilding core, would you choose Doncic? Or Morant? Leave me a message to discuss.
