Popovich's words have clearly told them that the playoff list is not fixed except for the starting 5 people, and everyone has a chance!, the Spurs are not the same as other teams!, the players who come here are treated fairly, although the salary can not be as much as other teams, but the opportunities are equal!.

Popovich's words have made it clear that whether he is the team's sixth man or a regular player on the second team, he needs to go through the assessment, otherwise, he will not be able to become a player in the playoff list!

The starting five people sit there indifferently, why?, because they don't have any pressure, the pressure is the players in the team's other list, if it weren't for Ginobili's injury, maybe there are only 6 people left in the list, George Hill looked at the expressions of his teammates, shook his head helplessly and said: "Boss, why do you say that the league is so strange?, obviously there are only 15 people, why do you have to arrange 12 people to play in the playoffs?".

Of course, George Hill, the boss, is asking Duncan!, he is the same as Lin Yi!, both are rookies in the league, although he played in the playoffs last year, but the problem is that Lin Yi has not played, it is impossible to ask him, right?, this question is still asked to the older generation of players!.

Duncan shook his head lightly and said: "This problem, I don't know, anyway, it existed a long time ago!, but it's also fair!, why?, because in this way, players who can enter the playoffs can not only be selected from their own teams, but also can introduce the players they need from the outside, and there is no need to wait for the draft, although it is convenient, but there is a problem, that is, the problem of running-in, not the old players of the team, it is possible to understand the run-in of the team!" , so they have to pay a price!".

For this problem, no one has explained clearly, 15 people in the regular season, 12 people in the playoffs, this list, no one really knows why, how people let them arrange, how they play, how to arrange, there are no other problems in it!.

"Boss, don't you even know?, you've played so many playoffs, don't you know a little bit about it?", George Hill asked in disbelief!, because Duncan replied very simply, if you really don't know, it wouldn't be so simple, right?

Duncan nodded lightly and said: "I really don't know about this, but the teams that can make the playoffs are all terrible teams, so what you need is to run in well, and what you need is to understand how your opponent plays, you can't say how much you rank in the regular season, you look down on your opponent, understand?"

"Of course we know this, we are not children anymore, of course we have our own understanding of these things, so boss, you can rest assured!", Lin Yi patted his chest and said!.

While they were chatting, Popovich had already begun to arrange, Popovich said: "For tomorrow's game arrangement, George will lead the team, except for the starting 4 people, I will fix the time with you, if you impress me, you can participate in the playoffs, if not, I can't do anything, do you know?"

"Clear!", everyone responded loudly!, the reason why George Hill occupies a position is because he is a player who has returned from injury, and after the injury, many things in the player have begun to decline!, so it takes time to run in, fortunately, there is still a little time before the playoffs, not only can the players be selected, but also George Hill can find his form or something!.

Popovich nodded with satisfaction, he is also very relieved about his players!, although they have a big difference in time, but as long as they have the opportunity to play, they will not give up!, so for this problem, Popovich is also very satisfied!.

After a short exchange, Popovich began to arrange the tactics of the afternoon, training, what is needed is for the players to run in by themselves, they have a good run-in in their heads, if they can, tomorrow's game is such a tactic!, if there is any problem, there is time to modify!.

After keeping the starters, Popovich began to say, "You know what I kept you for?"

Lin Yi and they shook their heads, they must not know, what Popovich means, if they knew, they didn't need Popovich to ask himself!, Popovich said: "Keeping you is for the arrangement of the playoffs, you are the starters, yes, but if the performance in the playoffs disagrees with me, you will not have this position at any time, understand?"

"Understood!", the five said in time!, Popovich nodded with satisfaction and said: "Arrange you down!, just to fix your position with you, because of the special relationship, Lin can only be stuck in the position of small forward and scoring guard!, Jefferson, you just work hard to play inside!".

"The player you need to face is Randolph, in the Memphis Grizzlies' arrangement, Randolph is an indispensable player!, so you need to understand his technical characteristics, and importantly, you need to understand not only Randolph, but also Marc Gasol!, although Duncan plays center, but a lot of times, he appears in the position of power forward!, you need to be clear about this!", Popovich said!.

Jefferson nodded to show that he understood, and Popovich could continue, "Why is there such an arrangement?, it is because of Manu's injury, which has led to a slight problem in our position arrangement, and there is also the fact that although Randolph is a power forward, the position he is stuck in is basically the center position, but it is Marc Gasol who is the power forward!"

"I know this too!, don't worry, old man!, I will definitely try my best to defend him!, although I can't guarantee whether I can limit his attack or anything!, but I can be sure that I will do my best!" Jefferson said!

Popovich nodded with satisfaction, looked at Duncan and said: "The next thing is you, Duncan, you are a player who makes me feel very relieved, and you are also a player that I trust very much in the playoffs!, Lin and George, they are both rookies and haven't played much in the playoffs, so as the boss, you need to help them well, do you understand?".

Duncan nodded and said, "Old man, don't worry!, you know very well what kind of person I am!, so you honestly put your heart back in your stomach!".

"Hehe!, I'm also very relieved when you say this, the most reassuring thing for me is Lin and George, you two, how much do you know about the playoffs, how much confidence do you have, you can create your own miracle?", Popovich smiled and said!

Lin Yi looked at George Hill, and George Hill also looked at Lin Yi, because of Popovich's words, they were silent, the record in the playoffs is different from the regular season!, so what people can remember is the performance in the playoffs!.
