The Grizzlies suffered a humiliating defeat for the visiting Bucks at home. 142-101, with a maximum lead of 50 points, the Grizzlies defeated the strong eastern team led by Alphabet Brother and Middleton in only two and a half quarters. After the big win, the Grizzlies have won seven games in a row, and they have reached the top of the Western Conference with a record of 19-9.
Occupy the top position in the Western Conference two months after the start of the game, which has never happened in the history of the Grizzlies. Even the Grizzlies who reached the Western Conference finals led by Mark Gasol and Zach Randolph have never achieved such a record.
As one of the youngest teams in the league, the Grizzlies, who are already at the top of the Western Conference, have not even reached their full potential. Their No. 2 scorer Desmond Bain is still recovering from injury, main power forward Jr. Jr. has just made a comeback, and the offensive end has not yet returned to his average.
The strength of the Grizzlies lies not only in how many stars they have in the starting line-up, not only because of their dazzling talent and fast-paced attack and defense, but also because of the self-disciplined atmosphere that the team has formed. It is the kind of strict requirements on themselves and the team that allow them to break through themselves again and again.
Last season, the Grizzlies scored the best 56 wins in the history of the draw, and Morante said this season: “I think we are almost ahead of what we did last season.” Last season we played two waves of ten wins in a row. As you can see now, our team is in very good shape and we have to keep it that way. We have to stay hungry and humble, and every game means a lot to us. ”
