Super Role Player

In the last few minutes of the second quarter, **Vic called timeouts continuously, but still could not stop the Spurs' decline. ??

When many role players are unable to score, Tony Parker, the only one who can stand up, is also in poor condition. In the end, in the second quarter, the 76ers widened the point difference to 15 points. At halftime, the 76ers led the Spurs with a score of 72:57.

Anxi, who scored 22 points in the second quarter, became the team's biggest contributor. After halftime, Anxi scored 26 points, 5 rebounds, 14 assists and 2 steals, completely suppressing Kawhi Leonard. It has also continued its excellent form in the previous games. It seems that it will not give up until it reaches the top five in the mVp rankings.

The Spurs are in poor shape in this game, which also gives the 76ers a chance to win.

In the third quarter, the 76ers continued to expand their lead.

Kawhi Leonard's performance recovered slightly in the second half, but the 76ers' offense in the first two quarters was so smooth. Pau Gasol and McAway were in good condition. Anxi Li was not even needed in the third quarter. The score It gradually expanded.

Regarding the problem that no one can stand up and score when the team needs to score, **Vicci also sighed.

Although Kawhi Leonard has made great progress, he is limited by the Spurs' system and has little room for independent play. Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili can play alone, but in this game Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili None of them are in very good condition. As for Duncan, his condition has declined a bit quickly this season, and it has been difficult to balance both offense and defense.

Therefore, when the Spurs needed to score the most, no one was able to step up and score. On the contrary, Anxi was beaten repeatedly on the defensive end, and in the end they could only lose the good game.

The third quarter lasted for more than 7 minutes, and the score difference had already widened to 20 points.

**Vic, who has never paid much attention to the victory or defeat in the regular season, began to consider giving up the game early.

Soon, after three quarters, the 76ers led by 22 points. In the fourth quarter, the Spurs simply replaced all substitute players and gave up the game.

Anxi, who scored 33 points, 7 rebounds, 18 assists, 3 steals and 1 block in the three quarters, also clocked out for the third quarter.

In the fourth quarter, Anxi was a little surprised when he sat on the sidelines and relaxedly watched the players at the end of the team's bench fight on the court. He did not expect that the team would win this game so easily. After all, in terms of record, the Spurs now only Slightly worse than the Pacers and Thunder, it is the third best team in the league.

And as a former Spurs player, Anxi knows that **Vic does not care about the Spurs' regular season record, but it does not mean that the Spurs did not play well in the regular season. On the contrary, the Spurs are the most stable team in the regular season and can always win steadily. The victory of the game, but the Spurs lost this game really badly. They were defeated by the 76ers in the third quarter, and the 76ers also clocked out early. The accident in Anxi is not surprising.

In the end, the 76ers defeated the Spurs 117:98 in an away game, winning their eleventh consecutive victory and continuing their hot streak.

Anxi's game statistics did not change. After all, Anxi did not play in the entire fourth quarter.

In the whole game, he scored 33 points, 7 rebounds, 18 assists, 3 steals and 1 block. He scored frequently at critical moments and was the absolute contributor to the 76ers' victory over the Spurs.

After the game, as the former head coach of Anxi, **Vicci accepted an interview and was naturally asked about Anxi.

Regarding the transfer issue of Anxi, **Vicchi had to explain again: "At that time, there was a better opportunity waiting for Anxi in Philadelphia, so I asked him to seize that better opportunity."

However, reporters repeatedly questioned, believing that **Vicci made a wrong choice, and **Vicci immediately admitted his mistake: "Yes, my choice was wrong, and I should not have let Ann go."

Such a straightforward admission of error also stunned the reporters.

In fact, in **Vitch's heart, he still believes that Anxi has become a superstar in the league, and Kawhi Leonard will not be worse than Anxi, but Kawhi Leonard's growth rate is slower.

One day in the future, Kawhi Leonard will also be a superstar-level player.

Of course, letting Anxi go will eventually be a regret in **Vic's legendary career.

After the game, for the 76ers, what needed to be celebrated most was not the victory of this game, but because of the victory of this game. Their winning streak finally came to 50 games, 50 wins and 23 losses, starting in mid-March. In the games, the 76ers never lost a game!

They have now won 11 consecutive games. NBA's winning streak of more than 10 games means that this team has the strength to compete for the championship. Therefore, the Philadelphia media is delighted.

After the game, Anxi, who was in a good mood, also accepted interviews from the media. Questions about the Spurs were naturally inevitable.

"Yes, I chose to leave the Spurs at that time. In fact, I was very reluctant to leave, but I knew that leaving the Spurs was the right choice. I could get more opportunities in Philadelphia, and Coach Veach also supported my departure. So in the end I chose to leave..."

"If you were given a chance, would you choose to come back to San Antonio?"

"I am living well in Philadelphia, so I have no idea of ​​leaving Philadelphia for the time being, but if, I mean if, if there are any special circumstances in the future, if I have the opportunity to return to San Antonio, I will still come back..."

"Let's not talk about the Spurs. Let's talk about the current record of the 76ers. After this victory, the 76ers have won 11 consecutive games. Teams in NBA that have won more than 10 games in a row are considered to be capable of competing for the championship. A championship team, do you think the 76ers have the strength?"

Looking at the ESPN reporter who asked this question, Anxi was not modest and nodded directly: "I think we have the strength, and our goal is to compete for the championship."

Anxi directly shouted the slogan of fighting for the championship, and the media reporters were in an uproar.

And Anxi's words quickly spread.

On the evening of March 29th, U.S. time, the 76ers had already boarded the plane and flew to Houston.

In an espn sports evening program called "NBA Today", host Stuart Scott first led several espn experts to review the 76ers' victory over the Spurs, and then naturally praised Anxi a few times. Finally, I mentioned the championship slogan shouted out by Anxi after the game.

Stuart Scott asked: "Mark, Henry, Royce, what do you think of the 76ers' rhetoric about winning the championship?"

Mark Stein should be ESPN's most objective basketball expert. Although sometimes he talks nonsense, most of the time, his remarks are still very objective. This time, he spoke first and analyzed the 76ers' championship. prospect.

"There is no doubt that the 76ers are now the three strongest teams in the Eastern Conference. The other two are the Indiana Pacers and the Miami Heat. If the 76ers' goal is to compete for the championship, then there is no problem. They have Anxi and Pau Gasol. Since then, the 76ers have already had the strength to challenge the Pacers and Heat. The 76ers' regular season record also proves this. They double-killed the Heat and also defeated the Pacers twice. In direct games with the Pacers and Heat, We had the upper hand in the fight.”

Mark Stein thinks there is nothing wrong with the 76ers shouting the championship slogan.

But there are people who support it, and naturally there are people who oppose it. Henry Abbott, who has always disliked Anxi, immediately said: "No, Mark, I think the regular season record cannot be equal to the playoffs. Last season, the Bulls also failed in the regular season." The Heat double-played in the game, but the result was that the Heat easily defeated the Bulls to advance. I think that purely from a strength perspective, they only have Anxi and Pau Gasol as star-level players, but the Heat have the Big Three and Ray Allen. It is not comparable to the 76ers at all. This gap is not very obvious in the regular season, but in the playoffs, it will be quite obvious..."

Royce Webber didn't speak at first. He was the last to express his opinion: "Generally speaking, I think there is no problem with the 76ers who have won 50 games and won 11 consecutive games and shouted the championship slogan. Of course. , Henry is right, in terms of strength, the 76ers are still far behind..."

…

The playoffs are approaching, and any discussion about the playoffs will generate a lot of saliva. This time, too, ESPN discussed the 76ers' championship prospects, and then Yahoo Sports and Turner Sports also discussed the 76ers' prospects. The prospect of a championship.

Generally speaking, they all believe that the 76ers are qualified to shout the championship slogan, but in terms of strength, they are still very optimistic about the 76ers. 8
