After being found by reporters at the airport, he and Parsons were also asked questions.

McGrady:

"Texas is still stronger than the big brother Spurs. I hope my big brother Carter will perform well next time!"

"Carter only scored 15 points today. Do you think this is no longer your era?"

"No, I still have energy!"

McGrady chewed gum and said stubbornly. Even if he failed to make the playoffs in the end, he was almost in the playoffs with the Thunder.

And Parsons next to him was a little emo.

Especially seeing an undrafted player make such a brilliant debut in the playoffs, he is also in the Texas team, also a rookie last year, and a second-round pick who started, but can only watch the game from the sidelines.

That's so itchy!

But there is no way, people are so awesome.

For example, this self-throwing dunk, it stands to reason that a small forward like Parsons can't do it? ?

Easily do such a move during private training!

But last year, with so many small forward rookies, only Jiang Hao, an undrafted player, did it in actual combat!

So he was a little convinced, and although Jiang Hao had not played against Nowitzki in the regular season.

But he had played against him!

He played all 4 games, and Nowitzki scored 30 points in all 4 games! ! !

So Parsons was still looking forward to another Chinese player:

"We hope YAO will recover healthy, and we will play such games next season!!"

McGrady glanced at him, sighed and rejected all the reporters.

2 days later.

Spurs vs. Mavericks Game 2!

With the East killing fiercely, the West also fought with real swords and guns! !

With Kobe's last second to kill the Grizzlies in front of Gasol and chased the score to 1:1, the Spurs players walked out of the locker room in amazement. Sure enough, Game 2 was the beginning of the series!

And they were playing against the team led by the old coach Carlisle! The coach who left the championship team for the iron-blooded Pistons and led the Pacers to the top of the Eastern Conference!

Sure enough, Carlisle changed his position when Game 2 came up.

Originally, in Game 1, Nowitzki saw that Jiang Hao, who was shorter than him, was defending him, so he wanted to play inside, but this game was different.

He stood in the circle outside the free throw line at the beginning! ! !

If it were any other coach, he would definitely let Nowitzki show his low-post skills and play the small forward route to create damage at critical moments!

But Carlisle didn't believe in this routine. He insisted on letting Nowitzki play his best shooting and fully display the silky shooting touch unique to European players on the outside! !

Nowitzki did not live up to Carlisle's arrangement. In the first quarter of Game 2, he directly shot 3 three-pointers around the pick-and-roll, and his 3-point shooting rate was as high as 52.9%, which was slightly higher than his average shooting rate.

And no matter who was in front of him, Nowitzki didn't do the back-to-back Golden Rooster Stand that he liked last season, just catch the ball and shoot!

Rely on the guards to break through and pass, and then he will respond on the outside! !

Many of his shots were made with 24 seconds left. Even if he was three steps away from the three-point line, he could still make the shot.

This is a historic shooting touch.

It was very uncomfortable for Jiang Hao.

It’s fine if he can’t reach it, but Carlisle sometimes abandons the inside rebounds and lets Mahinmi do off-ball pick-and-rolls. What the hell? ? ?

That is to say, Jiang Hao was blocked by two giants over 2.10 meters away from the free throw line several times, and it felt like there were blue figures around him.

"Jiang Hao was blocked and fainted, the Spurs need to make changes!"

"The haters are talking!!!!"

"Nowitzki scored 12 points in a single quarter??? Huh?? Where are the haters???"

"I said Nowitzki is invincible as a pure shooter, with this height, this wingspan, and this touch!!! He is a super giant without dribbling!!!"

"Dribbling in front of Jiang Hao is equivalent to a mistake, and King Nowitzki simply stopped dribbling. He played smart in G2!"

"Silver Horn King??? Golden Lion King!!!!"

(PS: It's even colder after the snow, and I will never be defeated by the cold! Tomorrow, tomorrow I will definitely write 10,000 words! Go for it!)

Chapter 146 145: Backboard dunk, Jiang Ke connects!

Although the Spurs still led by 1 point in the first quarter, Messina was obviously not satisfied with the team's performance.

He is not Popovich. He has never led his team to win the NBA championship. He must win every game steadily and fiercely. His desire for the championship is even greater than some players.

And he is not an American, so forget about social etiquette. If you can win 4:0, never win 4:1!!!!

What social etiquette do you want? Let's talk about it after we win the championship!

"Team!"

"Get the ball moving!!"

The Spurs basically relied on GDP in the first quarter, and did not use any other tricks. It can even be said that they were a little lazy. They just gave the ball to Duncan. The Mavericks did not double-team him. If they did not double-team him, they would play! ! !

Duncan really played, and did not pass the ball out much.

Duncan's beating of his former little brother Maxinmi was as simple as a father beating his son. It was easier than the team training. The main reason was that Maxinmi was under too much psychological pressure.

Then Jiang Hao and Danny Green naturally threw the ball in.

It's not that Jiang Hao didn't want to play.

Instead, the players all have a sense of touch. When a teammate feels in place, just pass the ball to the teammate. Who doesn't want to hug the thigh?

At this time, there is no need to worry about any tactics. As long as the opponent does not double-team, let the teammates play well first.

Therefore, the first quarter is a confrontation between two league-level power forwards.

Both of them have a true hit rate of 100%, and basically no missed shots.

And in Jiang Hao's view, the Thunder in the previous life had no other tricks, and the three young men were just starting to attack - these three brothers are 75-year-old super giants. This actually proves that the playoffs are superstar basketball!

The Spurs' superstar is Duncan!

You can always trust Mr. Basic Skills! Jiang Hao can just play from the side and move around to attract the defense.

But in fact, Carlisle was also betting. He was betting that Duncan would be too old to win!

Do you have the ability to beat us for four quarters like this?

He knew it was impossible to contain the Spurs with so many guns, so he chose to let the old guns kill them!

The head coach’s classic decision-making process!

I would rather double-team Jiang Hao and Ginobili than double-team Duncan! !

We can't let the Spurs' perimeter open like in the last game!

If the 36-year-old Duncan can defeat them and win the game, they will admit it! ! !

It's just that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. You want this, but the Spurs won't let you!

Nowitzki's performance also changed the Spurs' early defensive deployment, and the focus began to shift toward the outside.

As a pure shooter, Nowitzki has no solution. He must use height to top up!

It’s still Duncan the Gibbon who’s on top! ! !

Give up the offensive low position to Jiang Hao or Wu Sheng to allow Duncan to return to defense faster!

This is Messina's change of formation. He doesn't want Duncan to spend too much energy on the offensive end. He hopes that Duncan will use his energy on defense. He can't fight against each other. He should start with defense and guard Nowitzki first. Talk to you later!

It's not that Jiang Hao can't be guarded, but because of his small size, the Mavericks don't let him guard, and even use the inside to block the inside without the ball.

This makes Jiang Hao's single defense strength unable to be reflected!

So after the second quarter, Jiang Hao returned to his position to defend Marion, and Duncan defended his old rival Nowitzki.

Normal alignment! ! !

When everyone thought that Duncan, who had the height and wingspan to match Nowitzki, could guard against King Nowitzki's outside attack, Duncan was directly blasted by a single point! !

Nowitzki smiled inexplicably after seeing Old Deng marking him.

Then there was no catching and shooting from the outside like in the first quarter.

Although he also caught the ball at the free throw line in the first round, he directly broke through with his center of gravity after catching the ball. He was not clumsy and as light as a swallow. He even turned around and looked at the moon to finish with a layup.

See you in good health! !

“You don’t give any face to your old rival!!”

"Yes, the defending champion may have moisture, but the FMVP will definitely not!"

"Yes, how can the players coming out of the German tank have a lot of people waiting for them???"
