He just played basketball and became the chosen one.

10 to 0, Ryan scored 10 points in a row alone.

And all Nuggets players on the field gave Ryan an assist each.

From the beginning, the Nuggets played their characteristics this season.

Bird calls it Ryan's harem tactic! On the offensive end, everyone's first priority is to serve Ryan, the "Emperor"!

Lock up Miller? This trick is completely useless for digging.

Now everyone in the Nuggets starting lineup can pass the ball, everyone has a high basketball IQ, and everyone can deliver ammunition to Ryan!

And Ryan, as the Nuggets' sharpest blade, did not waste everyone's input.

He did whatever he wanted at the ATT Center and was completely different from his previous struggles in the playoffs.

As the saying goes, if you don't steal, you're not Italy; if you don't rob, you're not France; if you steal and rob England, you're American imperialism.

But who would have thought that Ryan came up with the AK and emptied the magazine in a wave, which was more powerful than the American emperor!

Of course, the 10-0 start wasn't what made Popovich the most angry.

What makes Popovich the most angry is that Ryan's bastard dared to shout at him!

What kind of status do you have that you dare to talk trash to me? Do you have this qualification?

Popovich was very angry. He would definitely win the game today and let Ryan kneel down and sing Conquer!

But Popovich also knows that there is no point in using Bowen to limit Miller now.

The Nuggets are now full of points that can feed the ball. Locking down a passing point will not have a big impact on the Nuggets' offense.

Since the passing point cannot be guarded, we can only deal with the point responsible for firing.

So next, Popovich decided to use Bowen to mark Ryan.

Although Bowen is dirty, we must admit that his defensive ability is indeed strong.

Of course, no matter how strong the defense is, Popovich doesn't expect Bowen to be able to contain Ryan on his own.

He also gave an order that the moment Ryan catches the ball, the person closest to Ryan besides Bowen should immediately go over to help defend against the attack!

To defend Ryan, even Theron had to ask his best friend to double-team him. If he was playing basketball, he would have to double-team him!

Popovich firmly believes that as long as Ryan can be held back, the Nuggets' offense will be revealed!

Gorgeous conduction? Oh, stop joking!

In this era, a gorgeous offense can only help the team sell tickets.

If you really want to win, you have to rely on airtight defense!

It should be said or not, this is where the old thief is so powerful.

He always responds quickly to on-the-spot adjustments and can prescribe the right medicine in a timely manner.

After the game restarted, the Spurs finally scored points with Yaodao's breakthrough layup in this round, breaking the scoring drought.

Kirilenko actually defended this ball very tightly. When Ginobili combined the ball and prepared for a layup, Kirilenko was still blocking Manu's front.

When Ginobili took the first step, AK47 was already brewing the opportunity to block the shot.

But when the Argentine took the second step, Ginobili suddenly flashed to the side, passed by Kirilenko, and scored a layup. A Ginobili's signature snake-like breakthrough allowed AK's defense to be broken!

Therefore, it is said that a Buddha drives a car in good times and in bad times, and kills all demons with a sword in desperate times. If you really can't help it, don't guess Bowen's whereabouts.

Ginobili finally helped the Spurs break their scoring drought. Now, it depends on whether Bowen can hold down Ryan!

Needless to say, Bowen's defense is indeed more oppressive than Ginobili's.

It’s not that easy for Ryan to get a chance.

Bowen was very difficult to deal with, but Ryan still used the double cover of Weber and Nene to reach the right side of the mid-range and received the pass.

But the moment Ryan caught the ball, Bowen got rid of the defense and pounced again. At the same time, Parker on the side immediately came over to flank Ryan as Popovich arranged.

It's a double team again. Seeing this scene, Nuggets fans have psychological shadow.

In the past two seasons, what Ryan was most afraid of was being double-teamed when holding the ball.

Popovich also put his hands on his hips with dignity, hehe, just a little trick can interrupt your performance!

I want to mess with you, that is, it only takes a minute!

Just when Denver fans were worried about the team's offense stalling, just when Popovich thought his defense was working.

However, Ryan immediately hit the ground the moment he was flanked and passed the ball through the gap between Parker and Bowen. Miller just cut in, caught the basketball, entered the penalty area and succeeded in the throw!

The Spurs' flanking attack didn't have any effect. The Nuggets' offense was still as fast as silver, without any jams or pauses!

Ryan's passing in double teams is more than one and a half times calmer than in the previous two seasons!

Popovich is completely petrified. Now even double-teams can no longer limit Ryan's ball?

Ryan's transmission just now was really fast and accurate!

How much has this guy improved? ?

The passing attribute of 70 is actually not very high, but as long as Ryan doesn't make any elbow passes, doesn't look behind people's heads to pass the ball, don't really think of himself as a magician, and only passes some basic balls, 70 In fact, it is enough.

This timely assist made the score 12-2, and the Spurs were still 10 points behind!

Not long after Popovich was happy, he was severely slapped in the face again.

There is no point in strangling Miller, and now the trick of flanking Ryan is not as useful as last season.

The Spurs discovered that the methods they used to defeat the Nuggets in the previous two years have now failed!

Moreover, both offensive and defensive methods are failing!

Forget it if the defense can't stop it, the Spurs' next attack was once again suppressed by the Nuggets.

Parker leaned on Ryan and used his invincible spinning top spin. He did pass Ryan with this spin, and then raised his hand for a layup.

But Ryan reached out from behind and used his height advantage to slap Parker's basketball away!

Parker is going crazy. It turns out that when Ryan focuses on one person, his defensive ability is so terrifying!

The basketball rebounded after hitting the backboard, and the Nuggets won the ball again.

After the counterattack, Bowen pursued Ryan relentlessly, and once again appeared in front of Ryan at the moment when Ryan was receiving the basketball, leaving no room for Ryan to shoot.

The Spurs waited for an opportunity to double-team, but Ryan also made a "one-hand touch" pass. As soon as he received the basketball, he pushed the ball to Kirilenko with one hand after cutting in!

Kirilenko took two big steps after taking the ball, and faced Duncan who hurried back to the basket and jumped up!

Even though Kirilenko is white and lean, he is actually quite athletic and very violent in attacking the frame.

People only saw him slam the ball into the frame with one hand through Duncan who had no time to take off!

If Duncan doesn't dunk every now and then, what kind of star is he? ?

However, this goal, Kirilenko's dunk on Duncan was not the most uncomfortable for Spurs fans.

After all, San Antonio fans are used to Duncan being dunked.

The most uncomfortable thing about this goal is that Ryan's pass can also make the Nuggets' offense extremely smooth!

Before, people thought that the Nuggets' offense consisted of four players who could pass the ball + one master of off-ball offense.

But in fact, the Nuggets' offense is made up of five players who can pass the ball together!

Ryan can now not only serve as a finishing point, he can also use his passing ability to feed his teammates this season!

The entire Nuggets offense was as smooth as watching the Harlem basketball team's performance!

14 to 2, the Spurs are 12 points behind!

The defending champion was beaten to a pulp in the first game of the new season!

In the stands, those signs saying "Definitely next year" were gradually put down by Spurs fans.

Because right now, a very scary fact is that the Nuggets in the new season may really be able to defeat the Spurs!

After that, the Nuggets' gorgeous performances never stopped.

And everyone is at home in this Nuggets system.

Weber, who had been considered completely useless, has regained the long-lost rhythm of the game.

He takes the ball with his back in the high post, scans his teammates who are cutting from him without the ball, and sends out wonderful passes at any time. Or when Duncan is busy filling in, he can catch the ball and shoot a straight-arm jumper to easily score points.

He no longer has to inefficiently force the ball, and he no longer has to rely on his insufficient athletic ability to attack the frame. He is using the method he is good at and has truly become an important part of the team system.

AK47 sweeps the entire field. He is not an arrowhead, but he will appear in any corner of the field. Steals, blocks, mid-range shots, and attacking the frame, all of them have his presence, making the Spurs sting unconsciously.

Taking the various parts of the AK47 out and looking at them individually, it seems that every part is a little rough. But when it all comes together, he becomes the best heavy firepower in Ryan's hands!

Andre Miller is no longer limited to organizing offense. This simple and unpretentious guy made fans sigh with emotion today: "This guy's mid-range shot is so accurate!"

When he is separated from organizational tasks, he can focus more on scoring and share the pressure with Ryan.

Nene's off-ball coverage is still smart, and more importantly, when he wanders out of the opportunity, the ball can appear in his hands in time, allowing him to finish easily.

For the first time, Nene found that his scoring data could be less bleak.

Finally, there is Ryan, the biggest beneficiary of Bird's system.

His cunning, smart, agility, strong outlook on the overall situation, cutting into the frame and outside shooting are all top-notch advantages, all of which are infinitely amplified by this system!

When everyone around Ryan can pass to him, he can do whatever he wants offensively. Moreover, fighting is a leisurely activity.

There is no longer the difficult feeling I had when facing the Spurs in the previous two seasons.

Many times, the Nuggets' offense starts with a high pass from Webber or AK and ends with Ryan cutting out and shooting. It's that simple!

Bird, a famous craftsman, used a bunch of not-so-luxury parts to create a famous watch for Ryan!

It turns out that as long as the core is good, the external parts can run smoothly.

Just like a beautiful woman with a hot figure, she is beautiful even if she is wearing a piece of rag.

The Nuggets' offense was extremely gorgeous. On the defensive end, the Nuggets did not let Ginobili get excited, and at the same time restricted Parker.

Only Duncan could make a difference on the offensive end of the Spurs, but because they had to worry about Kirilenko and Nene's quick defense, Duncan played fearfully.

Generally speaking, the Nuggets suppressed the Spurs on both offense and defense!

So at the end of half the game, the Spurs were already 17 points behind!

But San Antonio fans feel that there is still hope for the game. As the defending champion, the Spurs can definitely reverse the situation!

Obviously, Spurs fans have not realized the seriousness of the matter.

So when the third quarter ended, when the Nuggets used their gorgeous offense and equally beautiful defense to open the point difference to 25 points, the entire ATT Center was stunned!

We just received our championship rings!

The defending champion was beaten so badly?

This is as shameful as the bride running away with someone else on her wedding day!

It's really a shame. Popovich's back molars are now crunching.

And the Nuggets are already leading by so many points, but they don't seem to have any intention of stopping yet!

Damn it, I'll do it to death!

Monta Ellis laughed at this, old thief, old thief, don’t you know that my sister-in-law has been filming recently and is not with her brother?

He can't torment his sister-in-law, so he can only torment you!

Before the game, you actually provoked me in a weird way, so why don't you risk your death?

Normally, entering the fourth quarter with a 25-point lead is basically garbage time.

But Bird didn't want anything to happen to him in his debut with the Nuggets, so he decided:

"It shouldn't be too much for us to lead by 30 points and then call back the troops, right? After all, I used to beat the opponent by 30 or 40 points."

When Ryan heard this, he suddenly became excited.

Today I have to beat the Spurs to death to get rid of the bad breath in my heart!

So at the beginning of the fourth quarter, both sides still sent out their main lineups.

The Nuggets don't want to give up, and the Spurs don't want to give up either.

Popovich believes that the Nuggets should relax a little after leading so much.

As a result, as soon as the fourth quarter started, Ryan immediately scored his second three-pointer of the day!

In this attack, Ryan cut in from the left, used a cover in the chaotic penalty area to circle around, and then rushed out from the right. After receiving Miller's pass from outside the three-point line, he shot directly!

Popovich originally thought that Ryan's opening three-pointer was a matter of luck, because Ryan has not attempted a second three-pointer since then. Therefore, no attention was paid to Ryan's three-point defense.

As a result, this second shot, the three-pointer hit the net again!

28 points difference!

Ryan's personal score today is already 36 points!

Spurs fans clenched their fists one by one. Why are they still fighting to death?

Subsequently, Parker's mid-range jumper was hit again due to interference from Ryan. Parker was completely shut down by Ryan today and has only scored 9 points.

In fact, it's not just Parker.

So far in today's game for the Spurs, only Duncan has scored in double figures!

Others' hits were a disaster.

The defensive chain of Ryan + AK is truly powerful.

No, Parker's strike again allowed him to make 3 of 11 shots today.

Weber got the rebound, and before the Spurs could react, he used a posture similar to bowling to throw the ball forward from bottom to top! The basketball flew across the court and finally landed accurately in the hands of Ryan, who was already running at the front!

Weber's ability to grab a rebound and start a fast break with a direct pass is very strong, and his transmission is so precise that even the so-called invincible Iron Dome system cannot stop him.

Popovich watched Ryan take two big steps after catching the basketball and closed his eyes.

It's over, today is completely useless.

When Director Zhang saw Ryan soaring into the sky, he was so happy that he raised his arms in the studio:

"Gliding dunk, Ryan set fire to the sky! Split Huashan with force!

38 points in total! Ryan's perfect performance in the opening game completely ruined the defending champion's championship ring award night!

He staged the most perfect revenge in the most violent way!

30 points difference, Ryan shows mercy everywhere!

No, Ryan will show no mercy! "

Understand, it is indeed easy for people to talk when they are too excited, not to mention that Director Zhang himself is a big talker.

People often say this during the lottery: "Let's take a look at the results of today's lottery. Oh! It's a person from Taiyuan! Congratulations to this friend from Hubei."

It's just that Yu Jia next to him was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Your scoop this time was too outrageous!

However, Chinese fans no longer care what Director Zhang just said.

Everyone's grievances felt all summer were vented now!

There were no comebacks, no close scores. This brand new Nuggets beat the Spurs by 30 points in the first game of the new season!

Its daybreak!

At this point, there is no suspense in the game.

Popovich took the initiative to time out and replaced all the main players.

He knew that if he kept the main force on the court, Ryan would continue to play!

He doesn't want Ryan to score more than 40 points on top of the Spurs and continue to widen the point difference.

The Spurs fans at the scene all covered their heads with their hands, feeling incredible.

How come the Nuggets, who have been suppressed by us for two years, can suddenly dominate us like this?

Cavaliers fans are also confused, no. Why do they feel that the "overtaking Ryan" mentioned before will become a boomerang again?

Ryan sat on the bench and felt a bad breath coming from his mouth.

Looking at Popovich's shameful expression, Ryan felt satisfied!

The more you make this expression, the more excited I get!

Weren't you aloof and proud in front of outsiders before? Why am I being tricked into looking like this now! ?

At this time, Bird was already arranging substitute players to play, and he was going to go straight to five-on-five.

With such a great opportunity, Bird naturally did not forget to ask Monta Ellis to come up and practice.

Ryan looked at Ellis taking off his training clothes and suddenly had an idea.

Is it possible that .30 points is not enough of a shame?

"Ellis!"

"Brother, I'll make you some wolfberry water after I finish the beating."

"What are you talking about? It's not about the wolfberry water. How about we make a bet?"

"What bet?"

"If you can score double digits in the fourth quarter, I will give you a Rolex.

And you don’t have to practice with me the day after tomorrow. I’ll give you a day off.

But if you can't get it, then practice harder every day this week and cancel the holiday.

Do you dare to take a gamble? "

Ellis was stunned for a moment, then geared up:

"Brother, let me tell you that this is not Laozi's fault. The main thing for me to play is to dare to fight!

Dare to fight even in garbage time!

Please do it! "

Bird looked at what Ryan said to Ellis and shook his head.

In order to kill the Spurs, you really spent all your money!

Just like that, the garbage time game is official.

At this time, no one had noticed Monta Ellis, because there were so many talented high school rookies in these years, including Ajan in 2003 and Warcraft in 04, and Ellis seemed too ordinary in front of them.

Not many fans and media paid attention to him at all.

Popovich is already thinking about how to avoid embarrassment at the press conference later.

score? never mind. Under normal circumstances, during the garbage time, the score difference will not change much.

Popovich thinks the Spurs may end up losing by about 25 points. Although it is embarrassing, it is not too exaggerated.

But at this moment, Popovich heard an exclamation.

When I looked up, the score difference became 32 points!

Moreover, everyone on the field looked surprised.

Popovich:? ? ?

What happened in just a few seconds?

Why is the score difference widened again?

The big screen began to replay the goal just now, and Popovich also saw the scene that made everyone scream in amazement.

It turns out that just now, Monta Ellis, the high school student who was revealed to have had his ribs broken by Ryan, broke through the elderly Van Exel along the baseline at an incredible speed.

Then, facing the defense of Spurs substitute center Nazr Muhammad, he completed a 360° turn layup in the air with Muhammad's body in the air!

Popovich, like most fans, was completely stunned.

To be honest, Popovich has seen balls more difficult than this, but...

This is the first fucking goal a high school rookie scores in the NBA!

Did you play so outrageously on the first ball? ?

Ryan shook his fist violently on the sidelines. Ellis was worthy of being the person who would later turn the 360° turn and layup in the air into a regular weapon.

I have been very spiritual since I was a child!

And you, kid, are really brave enough to fight in your spare time!

There is a reason why Ellis dares to play hard. The kind of ball just now requires not only ability, but also confidence.

After a summer of training, Ellis has gone from being unable to find a frame over Ryan to occasionally scoring a few goals over Ryan in 1V1.

So Ellis thought, I can occasionally score goals on the league's strongest defensive perimeter.

You bunch of rotten fish and shrimps, shouldn’t I deal with you casually?

After that, Ellis became more confident and crazy the more he played. He dared to make any moves and took any chances. He didn't look like a high school rookie at all.

In the words of Director Zhang, Ellis’s shot in this quarter gave people this feeling: “Oh, you really dare to shoot, this is not a blind shot, oh, it’s going to be bad. Hey, it’s in!”

Popovich's heart went cold. He knew very well what would happen to such a convulsive player once he played smoothly.

After all, he has a convulsions king under his command.

Seeing the score difference getting out of control, Popovich's expression gradually became dull, and Ryan's expression became more and more excited.

Monta Ellis, a high school student, became the last straw for the defending champion!

Spurs fans thought they would lose by 25 points at most today.

but now.

You guys are just rubbing salt into the wound!

It is indeed rubbing salt into the wound. After all, before the game started, Popovich also poured salt into it.

Ryan's wave is called courtesy!

Originally, the Spurs really didn't have to lose so much, but who would have thought that Monta Ellis, a high school rookie, would actually score 11 points in a single quarter in garbage time!

Ellis smiled slightly: "Oh, it's just the master's task."

The Spurs fans in the audience were ashen, and all the Spurs players had solemn expressions.

They thought today was a night worth celebrating, receiving championship rings and killing a Nugget to add to the fun.

As a result, today turned out to be a night of shame for the Spurs!

Because when the electronic buzzer sounded, indicating the end of the game, the score was 115 to 73!

The defending champion San Antonio Spurs, on the night of their championship ring presentation, lost to the Nuggets by a full 42 points!

Even if they lost by 30 points in the first three quarters, Ellis's 11 points in a single quarter directly nailed the Spurs to the pillar of shame!

This is the first time in the history of the Spurs that they have lost to their opponent by no less than 40 points in the regular season!

At the same time, he is also the defending champion who lost the opening game by the largest margin in NBA history!

The Denver Nuggets turned this night into a night of shame for the Spurs!

Mike Brynn swallowed his saliva:

“This is simply the most humiliated defending champion in NBA history!

Ryan and his Nuggets showed no mercy to the Spurs!

God, look at Coach Popovich's expression and the Spurs players' expressions. They can't believe that the defending champion could lose like this!

Ryan's revenge is more violent than anyone imagined!

On the first day that the Denver Demolition Group started construction, they smashed the league's No. 1 team to a pulp! "

Popovich looked at the huge score difference in disbelief, and he was completely enveloped in an unprecedented sense of shame.

Ryan looked at the score difference and nodded with satisfaction.

Well, 40 points, that’s cool!

He walked onto the court, touched Ellis' head and praised him. Then, he took the initiative to walk up to Popovich and applauded in front of him deliberately and boldly:

"What's wrong, coach? Why do you look like a lost dog? You should recover quickly. This is the night when your championship ring is awarded. Your fans must still prefer your unruly look before!

Why don't you laugh? Don’t you like to laugh?

Don't be upset, you have to get used to it. There will be many nights like this this season! "

After finishing sucking Popovich with satisfaction, Ryan pointed to the brand new championship flag that had just been raised before the start of the Spurs game under the gaze of all reporters' cameras:

"That thing, the Pepsi Center, is going to have a side soon!"

The bloodiest revenge against the defending champion has just begun!
