The playoffs are about to begin, and Popovich announced the Spurs' playoff roster in the locker room of the training gym, the 15-man squad for the regular season. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Popovich thought about it and finally chose Cory Joseph, this season, Cory Joseph did not bring much help to the Spurs, before TJ Ford retired, Cory Joseph was always able to get a little playing time, as soon as TJ Ford retired, Cory Joseph's strength problem was revealed, after Patrick Mills joined, Popovich even sent Cory Joseph to the NBDL and exercised for a while.
After announcing the playoff squad, Popovich gave the Spurs a day off, and Anxi drove home early.
The next day, it was a rare vacation before the playoffs, but Anxi didn't sleep too late, because Abby came back from Utah, and early in the morning, she would definitely have to exercise.
After satisfying the aftertaste, Abby prepared breakfast in the kitchen, while Anxi picked up the remote control and turned on the TV.
ESPN Sports Station, the expert prediction is being broadcast live, An Xi put down the remote control and looked at the prediction of these experts seriously.
"Mark, who do you think more about the championship?"
"I think Miami has a good chance of winning the championship, this is the second year of the Big Three, and their chemistry is good enough for them to win the playoffs this season!" It was Mark Stein who spoke, and Anxi knew this expert, who had been interviewed by Mark Stein.
"And what about Adand? What do you think? ”
J.A. Adander, another expert reporter from ESPN, paused and said: "I am more optimistic about the San Antonio Spurs, they are in good shape this season, the GDP is old and strong, the addition of Boris Dio has made their offensive tactics more fluid, two young players - Kowhi Leonard and Anxi, have helped the Spurs set up a defensive gate on the outside, and there are Danny Green and Patrick Mills on the bench, this Spurs are very strong." ”
"And Tim McMahon, what do you think?"
……
Anxi watched a little boring, he yawned, and several expert reporters expounded their opinions separately, almost each one was different, Mark Stein was optimistic about the Heat, J.A. Ardander was optimistic about the Spurs, and Tim McMahon was optimistic about the Thunder, and Chris Brossard was optimistic about the Bulls, such a discussion almost made Anxi laugh.
Then, the host of the ESPN sports station also asked other expert reporters who did not speak to vote, and the final result was that the Heat was first with 11 votes, the Thunder was second with 8 votes, and the Bulls were third with 3 votes, while the Spurs actually only had 2 votes, 24 experts, and only 2 were optimistic about the Spurs to win the championship.
"Huh." This time, Anxi really laughed.
"What's wrong?" Abby handed Anxi a glass of milk, and then looked at the TV curiously, she thought Anxi was watching some kind of comedy, but it turned out to be ESPN Sports Station. glanced at An Xi, then put his slender and white legs on An Xi's legs, and half leaned on the sofa.
"It's nothing, only two of these ESPN experts support the Spurs to win the championship." Anxi held the milk in one hand and stroked Abby's thigh with the other, and then explained the reason for his laughter.
Abby glanced at Anxi again: "Only two? You're the first in the regular season, why are there only two? ”
An Xi shrugged: "Experts who support the Heat say that the Heat triumvirate has been working together for two years, and this year will definitely be a year for them; Experts who support the Thunder say that the Thunder are younger than the Spurs, and the strength of the core players is stronger than the Spurs. Those who support the Bulls say that no one in the Spurs can guard against Derrick Rose, although in the regular season, Anxi defended Rose, but in the playoffs, I may not be able to withstand the pressure when I play the playoffs for the first time......"
Anxi didn't say any more, because of the last reason, Abby pouted.
"Why do they say that, you can defend Derrick Rose in the regular season, why not in the playoffs?"
"Hey, hey." Anxi smiled, he enjoyed Abby's grievances for himself.
"By the way, did those pundits say you can make the All-Rookie team?" Abby suddenly remembered the All-Rookie Team, and she also knew about the bonus clause in the Anxi sneaker contract.
"Having said that, these pundits can't deny my results in the regular season, and they all predict that I can at least make the All-Rookie Second Team."
"yes, that's good."
With the end of the regular season, all the regular season awards have been clear, whether it is ESPN, or American media such as USA Today, Yahoo Sports, or Sports Illustrated, they all believe that Anxi can at least break into the All-Rookie Second Team.
Although in terms of scoring data, Anxi can only rank in the top 20 of this rookie, but counting the defense and team record, Anxi can be ranked in the top ten.
If you can get the best rookie team, even if it is the best rookie second team, Anxi's $500,000 bonus can be obtained.
"Then the 500,000 yuan, can you get it?"
"Yes, you can get it." An Xi smiled and nodded.
Abby was suddenly a little excited: "Then let's use the 500,000 to go out in the summer, right?" ”
"Hanging out?" An Xi paused, he was wondering what else he had planned for this summer. "It's not impossible to go out, but didn't Uncle Jeff let us take time out to play on the farm in Arkansas in the summer?"
Abby straightened up, "yes, but it's okay to go there for a week in Arkansas, we have a lot of time left." ”
An Xi nodded: "Well, then you can go out and play, so let's do it, as soon as the game is over this season, how about we go to China to play?" My homeland. ”
"Okay, then you will be my tour guide then." Abby is still very happy, for her, it doesn't make a difference where she goes, anyway, she can just hang out with Anxi.
"Well, after going to China, we're going to the farm in Arkansas for a week, and then I'm going to prepare for the London Olympics, and during the Olympics, we can go to London to watch the games, which is not bad, but $500,000 will definitely not be spent, haha."
ESPN's prediction program is no longer watched, Anxi and Abby have planned where to go in the summer, as soon as the game is over, go back to China first, on the one hand, Anxi knows China better, on the other hand, Anxi knows that for the Olympics and the national team, he will definitely have to find time to solve it.
Then, Jeff Hornacek also listened to his words, went to the farm in Arkansas for a week, calculated the time, and estimated that the men's basketball Olympic warm-up game will also start, participate in the warm-up game, and then go directly to the Olympics, so that a summer will be over.
It was a very fulfilling summer......
