Super Role Player
Chapter 123 The playoffs start
(Today’s first update, I’m asking for a recommendation ticket. In addition, let me announce again that the book will be officially released on September 1st. In the remaining 9 days, everyone should vote for this book! Thank you everyone!)
On April 29, 2012, the day of the playoffs, the Spurs players returned to the team one after another. Anxi wore headphones, humming Taylor Swift's new song, and walked leisurely into the locker room.
As soon as he entered the locker room, Anxi was frightened by a strange atmosphere. He opened his mouth wide, but in the next second, he quickly closed it again, then slowly took off the earphones, and quietly sat back in his seat .
In the locker room, everyone was very serious, talking and laughing normally, but today they all disappeared. Anxi was dumbfounded. It seems that everyone is very serious about the arrival of the playoffs. .
Not long after, Popovich walked in and clapped his hands.
"Okay, everyone doesn't have to be so serious. Our first opponent, everyone should know, the Utah Jazz. In the regular season this season, we have lost and won against them, but in general we still have the advantage. Yes, of course we cannot underestimate the enemy. The first two games are our home games. These two games must be won. Otherwise, you have experienced the horror of the Utah Energy Solutions Arena. End this series as soon as possible. The opponent is still behind..."
Popovich said a lot, the most important thing is not to underestimate the enemy. Indeed, in terms of strength, the Jazz is definitely not as good as the Spurs, but the Jazz has a devil's home court, which gives the Jazz a great bonus. If the Spurs lose one game at home, the situation is critical. Therefore, according to Popovich, the first two games cannot be lost. The Spurs have to go to Utah with a 2:0 advantage, and then the two devils In the away game, if the situation is worse, if you win one game and lose one game, the Spurs can get the match point.
Otherwise, if you go to Utah with a score of 1:1, maybe it will be 1:3 when you come back, and the pressure will be great, and maybe it will be another black eight.
Popovich also didn't mention the black eight in last year's playoffs. Anyway, it was a warning not to underestimate the enemy, and at the same time, the series should end as soon as possible.
After Popovich finished speaking, he asked the players to go to training separately. For the game in the afternoon and the morning, the Spurs must focus on restorative training. After all, the most important thing is to conserve energy.
Gregg Popovich stood on the sidelines, overseeing the players' practice, with no expression on his face.
"What? Greg, are you still worried about playing Utah?" As an old partner who has worked with him for several years, Mike Budenholzer naturally knows Popovich very well.
"Yeah, how can we not be worried? Mike, you know, last year, when we transitioned to offense, we were beaten by Memphis. This year, who knows what will happen?" Popovich sighed, even if the opponent Very weak, he still couldn't help worrying.
Transformation is always painful. In the process of transformation, there must be a lot of tuition fees. Popovich doesn't know whether he and the Spurs have paid enough tuition fees for the transformation.
The first round of the playoffs is about to begin. The entire United States, and even the world, are focusing on the NBA, and discussions about the playoffs can be seen everywhere.
On the evening of April 29th, the first round of the playoffs between the Spurs and the Jazz is about to start. In order to show the fighting spirit of the fans in the playoffs, the Spurs officially prepared cheering T-shirts with a main color of white and a little black, and seats on the sidelines There is one for each seat. If you have children, you can go to the official store outside the arena to get a small T-shirt.
So, when Anxi and the others entered the locker room, AT\u0026amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;\u0026amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp;amp; The harvest season is here again, and all the fans are looking forward to their home team bringing back a championship trophy!
in the locker room,
The cheers from the other side of the field were faintly heard, and Anxi suddenly realized that he was starting to get nervous.
Anxi glanced at Kawhi Leonard who was sitting not far away. Although Kawhi was still expressionless, his fidgeting and rapidly rising and falling chest exposed Kawhi, and Kawhi was also nervous , Anxi smiled, well, for people like them playing in the playoffs for the first time, nervousness is normal.
The appearance ceremony of the playoffs was more solemn than the regular season. The Jazz players came out first. They walked out of the player tunnel one by one.

Then, it was Anxi's turn.
"Huh!" Anxi took a deep breath, making his debut in the playoffs! I am coming!
"The next one is! Xi—! Ann—!"
Anxi ran out of the player tunnel, facing the upsurge in the stadium, his ears were filled with huge cheers, which made Anxi's ears tingle, but seeing all the Spurs fans standing up, waving scarves and slogans ... Anxi became excited, and his nervousness was thrown away by him!
The appearance ceremony ended quickly. The penultimate appearance on the Spurs side was Manu Ginobili, and the last finale appearance was Tim Duncan. The cheers reached a critical point here in Tim Duncan.
After the appearance ceremony, the national flag was raised, and while listening to the national anthem of the United States, Anxi sang the national anthem of the motherland in his heart, thinking of the five-star red flag, and he hoped for a successful playoffs.
After the warm-up, the game started quickly. For the Spurs, there was no change in the starting lineup. Starting point guard Tony Parker, shooting guard Anxi, small forward Kawhi Leonard, power forward Boris Diaw and center Tim Duncan.

He hopes to use Josh Howard's defense to lock a certain point of the Spurs.
With the whistle of the referee, Tim Duncan and Al Jefferson rose into the air, and the two scrambled for the ball. In the end, Tim Duncan grabbed the basketball by virtue of his height advantage.
The Spurs attacked first, Tony Parker advanced to the frontcourt with the ball, and made a gesture. According to this gesture, the Spurs settled down in the frontcourt.
