On January 18, Beijing time, the NBA officially announced the latest issue of the team's combat strength list, and the Grizzlies rose to the top of the list, which is amazing, the Suns and Warriors ranked second and third, the Nets ranked seventh, and the Lakers fell to 20th. The most unexpected thing about this list is naturally that the Grizzlies rose to the top of the league! To tell the truth, the Grizzlies are a group of young people who have worked the court to fight hard with all their might, and they have hit the first position in the league one by one, which is really worthy of respect!
According to statistics, since November 25, 2021, the Grizzlies have ranked first in the league in six statistics: net efficiency, defensive efficiency, win rate, rebounding, steals and blocks, and the most stark change is that the Grizzlies' record has changed from 21 wins and 6 losses to 30 wins and 15 losses, and is currently ranked fourth in the West. The Grizzlies did not perform well at the beginning of this period, but then the Grizzlies ushered in the longest wave of winning streaks in the history of the team, during which they defeated teams such as the Lakers Warriors, which was quite strong.
The performance of the team's star Morant is naturally worthy of recognition, but the performance of Players such as Jalan Jackson Jr., Adams and Bain is beyond doubt. The game against the Bulls was very intense, and there were about 5 minutes left before the end of the final quarter, the Grizzlies and bulls clashed, the Grizzlies attacked the round, Morant's attack broke through to the inside line, which was originally a threatening score, but did not expect the opponent Bradley to directly on the leg, this action is somewhat threatening, but also caused Morant to break through was hindered, the two sides did not give in to each other. In the end, Bradley and Morant each took a technical offense, and Bradley was also blown a malicious foul.
But the scene in adams in the game can be described as quite heartwarming, in order to protect the team's star, the young Morant. Adams picked up Bradley, who weighed 224 pounds, to prevent Bradley from making excessive moves, and to know that Adams himself weighed only 240 pounds, which showed his strong strength. Teammate Bane saw this scene and said that Adams couldn't help but smile like he was holding a child. It is really good that the conflict scene is resolved in such a way.
The Grizzlies are all soldiers, showing the vitality of young people, but also let us see the hope that the Grizzlies may play in the playoffs! 31 wins and 15 losses are far from enough for the team, I believe Morant will lead the youth army and go further!
