NBA: I was the No. 1 pick at the beginning

At the end of halftime, the two teams also returned to the locker room.

Jokic couldn't help but said when he returned to the locker room.

"The Spurs are really getting more and more difficult!"

As he spoke, he saw bursts of scratches appearing on his arms.

That's what happens with rebounds when you're scrambling inside.

It is common for such injuries to inside players to appear in every game.

Just like the finals between the Spurs and Pistons.

Duncan faced the double Wallace's inside line, and every game ended with large and small bruises on his body.

But what Jokic said still makes sense.

The Spurs are really getting more and more difficult.

The head coaches of the two teams also quickly made tactical adjustments during the halftime break.

Back in the second half of the game, a situation appeared on the Spurs side.

That is Adelaide once again sluggish.

Three consecutive shots missed.

Popovich frowned slightly on the sidelines, but did not make a substitution.

He just thought that the second half had just started and the touch was not very good.

But after the Lakers attacked, Chen Tian missed the shot.

Anthony actually pressed Adelaide to snatch the basketball.

Seeing this scene, Popovich immediately knew something was wrong.

Quickly call Rudy Gay over and let him replace Adelaide.

Adelaide's expression made Popovich quite disappointed.

Even Popovich has now moved to trade Adelaide.

After all, without Adelaide's Spurs, they may be even stronger.

Rudy Gay replaces Adelaide.

When Ade left the field, his eyes were also full of disappointment.

For some reason, after he came to the Spurs, he felt a great sense of powerlessness.

I don't have the kind of passion to play when I was in the Trail Blazers.

Even he has a feeling of loathing to play.

Ade doesn't know what's going on now.

On the field, after replacing Rudy Gay, the offensive rhythm of the two teams is also much faster.

Popovich watched the game on the court, and was also thinking about who would be more suitable to replace Adelaide.

Suddenly Popovich saw Dajia on the court hit the ball again with his back.

Popovich suddenly thought of someone.

That is Dajia's brother, Marc Gasol.

Now that the Grizzlies have begun to rebuild, Gasol Jr. must not be within the scope of the Grizzlies' reconstruction.

Comparing Xiaojia and Ade, Ade is still more powerful.

In addition to changing a team, Adelaide may also change his attitude.

Popovich thought of this and planned to have a good chat with the Grizzlies after the game.

If the Spurs get Gasol Jr., they will definitely be even stronger.

Now Popovich naturally wants to win this game.

The cooperation between Rudy Gay and Leonard miraculously produced a different chemical reaction.

With the combination of Chen Tian and Anthony, it was almost a direct fight.

This made Popovich very happy.

Chen Tian didn't expect that Leonard would grow so much.

Even when he was physically strong, Chen Tian's confrontation with him was completely indistinguishable.

This was the first time Chen Tian met such an opponent after two consecutive championships.

To know Chen Tian's strength, after two consecutive championships, he is already the best in the league.

And last season against Leonard, this guy doesn't have such strength yet.

Unexpectedly, Leonard has grown to this point now.

Chen Tian suddenly remembered something, it seemed that in his previous life Leonard would lead the Raptors to win the championship next season.

In other words, Leonard is now at his peak.

Then there was the duel between Chen Tian and Leonard.

The inside line directly collides with Jokic's muscles.

3D comparison of Tucker and Green.

The collision of Anthony and Rudy Gay's strongest second in command.

Suddenly in this game, the rest of the team seemed to have found a suitable opponent perfectly.

And it was Brogdon who faced Parker.

This is also a substitution adjustment made by Monty during the halftime break.

Brogdon's offensive ability was of great help to Chen Tian.

Immediately, all ten people on the field found their positions.

The game on the court has also become very stalemate.

If you score two points, I will pay you back two points immediately.

You hit a three-pointer, and I immediately retaliate with a three-pointer.

At the end of the third quarter, the Lakers were still three points behind the Spurs.

This made the fans in the audience feel thrilled.

This kind of competition is really too intense.

The lineups of the two teams seemed to be specially prepared for each other.

Both Popovich and Monty smiled wryly.

Because now they have nothing to do.

Looking at Chen Tian's playing time, the second and third quarters were completely full.

Under such circumstances, the Spurs can still lead.

Popovich should feel happy.

After all, only the Spurs can push the Lakers to this point this season.

But Popovich doesn't think so, what he wants is victory.

If you want to say that in the west, the Spurs can compare with the dynastic team Lakers.

After entering the 21st century, the confrontation between the Spurs and the Lakers has not stopped for a moment.

But since Chen Tian joined the Lakers, this balance has been broken.

Popovich must be unwilling in his heart.

So he is bound to let the Spurs beat the Lakers.

Leonard also has the spirit of not admitting defeat, so he looked at Chen Tian, ​​his eyes full of dissatisfaction.

But looking at Ade beside him again, Leonard has the heart to kill him.

Looking at Jokic next to Chen Tian, ​​and Ade next to him, they are simply incomparable.

Soon the fourth quarter will begin.

Both Chen Tian and Leonard returned to the field.

The two looked at each other, and both saw the determination to win the game in each other's eyes.

Both of them also knew that it was up to them to see who would win this match.

After the start of the fourth quarter between the two teams, neither Leonard nor Chen Tian was in a hurry to attack first.

Instead, let your teammates play more.

The two were just defending with all their strength.

Because both of them knew that their duel was about to begin.

Accumulating stamina is the most important thing.

Soon there were 6 minutes left in the fourth quarter.

The Lakers have already chased the score to only one point left.

At this time, Chen Tian took the lead.

After receiving a pass from Jokic, Chen Tianfei made a one-handed dunk.

It also succeeded in overtaking the score.

But on the other hand, Leonard still didn't rush to make a move.

Instead, Gay scored the ball in a mid-range shot.

Chen Tian knew that he had more physical strength than Leonard, so it was very normal to strike first.

Sure enough, after 1 minute passed, Leonard began to exert his strength.

Chen Tian and Leonard faced off again.

This made the audience in the audience very novel.

Because Chen Tian seemed to have finally found his opponent.

Facing the opponent Leonard, Chen Tian always had a smile on his lips.

This is what he wants to get the opponent.

It was extremely cold at the heights, it really made Chen Tian uncomfortable.

The duel between the two teams was also maintained until the last moment of the game.

Leonard made another mid-range shot against Chen Tian.

It also overtook the score, with the Spurs leading by one point at 99:98.

At this time, there are only 7 seconds left.

Leonard scored the goal, and his paralyzed face finally moved.

Leonard raised his arms and shouted excitedly.

The Lakers also called a timeout.

For the last attack, everyone knows who to hand the ball to.

But Monty is afraid of what happened when he played against the 76ers.

So let everyone in the team pick and roll Chen Tian, ​​and Chen Tian must catch the ball.

Sure enough, after the timeout, the Spurs began to double-team Chen Tian.

But after continuous pick and roll, Chen Tian still caught the ball.

Leonard and Green are also ready to fight.

Chen Tian looked at the time, and finally Chen Tian started it with three seconds left.

Then I saw Chen Tian throw the ball under the defense of Leonard and Green.

The sound of wiping the net came out.

All the fans stood up and chanted mvp.

Chen Tian knew that the goal had been scored.

Chen Tian, ​​who landed on the ground, also showed a smile.

Leonard also had a disappointed expression on his face when he saw Chen Tian scoring the goal.

He was not reconciled to losing this game.

Aldridge was not used at all throughout the second half.

Leonard understood what Popovich meant, but he couldn't forgive Aldridge.

The Lakers beat the Spurs.

After the game, Popovich was also pushed to the forefront.

The media is also very puzzled by the team's abandonment of Aldridge in the second half.

But the old man is also very domineering. I am willing to directly wipe out all the media with just these three words.

Hearing this, Chen Tian couldn't help laughing.

Sure enough, this is very Popovich.

The Lakers won the game here, and the whole team is quite happy.

Monty and other coaching staff are also in a very beautiful mood.

But the Spurs are different here.

Leonard found Popovich, and the two talked for a long time.

No one knew what the conversation was about.

But after the Spurs returned to San Antonio, Popovich contacted the Grizzlies the next day.

And Chen Tian didn't expect that just such a game would lead to the first big deal of the new season.

After Chen Tian got up the next day, sitting on the sofa and looking at his phone, he also discovered the deal.

I only saw the Spurs and the Grizzlies complete the deal.

The Spurs sent Aldridge and Brandon Paul.

Got Marc Gasol from the Grizzlies.

Immediately, this deal also detonated the entire league.

Chen Tian knew that the west was about to change again.
