On April 29, 2012, the day of the playoffs, the Spurs players returned one after another, Anxi wore headphones, hummed Taylor Swift's new song in his mouth, and walked into the locker room with grace. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As soon as he entered the locker room, An Xi was frightened by a strange atmosphere, he opened his mouth wide, and the next second, he quickly closed his mouth again, and then slowly took off the headphones and quietly sat back in his place.

In the locker room, everyone was very serious, usually talking and laughing, but today they all disappeared, Anxi was stunned, it seems that everyone is very serious and serious about the arrival of the playoffs.

It didn't take long for Popovich to walk in and clapped his hands.

"Okay, you don't have to be so serious, our first opponent, you should know, Utah Jazz, this season's regular season, we have won and lost against them, but in general we still have an advantage, of course, we can't underestimate the enemy, the first two games are our home field, these two games, must be won, otherwise, the horror of the Utah Energy Solutions Arena, you have also seen it, end this series as soon as possible, our real opponent is still behind......"

Popovich said a lot, the main content is not to underestimate the enemy, indeed, in terms of strength, the Jazz is definitely inferior to the Spurs, but the Jazz has a devil's home court, which gives the Jazz a great bonus, if the first two home games Spurs lose one, then the situation is critical, so, according to Popovich said, the first two games can not be lost, the Spurs have to go to Utah with a 2:0 advantage, and then two devils away, the situation is a little worse, win one and lose one, and the Spurs can get the match point.

Otherwise, if the score of 1:1 goes to Utah, 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 didn't mention the Black Eight in last year's playoffs, anyway, it was a warning not to be taken lightly, and at the same time, the series must be ended as soon as possible.

After Popovich finished speaking, he let the players go to training separately, the afternoon game, the morning, the Spurs must be mainly recovery training, after all, it is still the most important thing to save physical strength.

Greg Popovich stood on the sidelines, supervising the players' training without a single expression on his face.

"What? Greg, are you still worried about playing Utah? As a veteran of several years, Mike Budenholzer naturally knows Popovich very well.

"yes, how can you not be worried? Mike, you know, last year, we switched to offense, and we were beaten by Memphis, and this year, who knows what will happen? Popovich sighed, even if his opponent was weak, he couldn't help but worry.

Transformation is always painful, and in the process of transformation, there must be a lot of tuition, and Popovich doesn't know whether the tuition has been paid enough for the transformation between him and the Spurs.

The first round of the playoffs is about to begin, and the entire United States, and indeed the world, have their eyes on the NBA, and you can see the discussion of the playoffs 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 the main color is white, with a little black cheering T-shirt, on the sidelines of the seat, each seat is put one, if there are children, you can also go to the official store outside the arena, get a small T-shirt.

So, when Anxi and they entered the locker room, at& amp; amp; The T arena has been obscured by the white sky, Spurs fans are jumping wildly on the sidelines, the playoffs are here, the harvest season is here again, and all the fans are hoping that their home team can bring home a championship trophy!

In the locker room, the cheers on the other side of the court were faintly heard, and An Xi suddenly found that he was starting to get nervous.

Anxi glanced at Kowai Leonard, who was sitting not far away, although kawaii still looked expressionless, his restless, rapidly undulating chest exposed kawaii, kawaii was also nervous, Anxi smiled, well, for people like them who are playing the playoffs for the first time, nervousness is normal.

The playoff ceremony was more solemn than the regular season, the Jazz players came out first, they walked out of the player tunnel one by one, and there was a huge boo on the side of the court, which was more than ten times louder than usual! Sure enough, by the time it came to the playoffs, everything was escalated.

Then, it is the Spurs who play, and the Spurs' appearances here are in order, according to the order, Anxi is in the second appearance, compared to the beginning of the season, Anxi's status in the Spurs team has been much higher.

"Next, the Spurs are going to play! Cheers! Let's start by welcoming ——! Tony! Parker! The DJ shouted loudly, Tony Parker waved his hand and ran out, the lights shone on Tony Parker's body, and the cheers at the scene grew louder and louder.

Then, it was Anxi's turn.

"Whew!" Anxi exhaled deeply, playoff debut! I'm coming!

"Next up! Creek - ! Ann! ”

Anxi ran out of the players' tunnel and greeted the heat in the stadium, his ears were filled with huge cheers, which made Anxi's ears numb, but he saw that all the Spurs fans on the sidelines stood up, waving scarves and slogans in their hands...... Anxi began to get excited, and the nervousness was suddenly thrown away by him!

The ceremony ended quickly, with Manuginobili coming in second to last on the Spurs' side and Tim Duncan in the final round, and the cheers reached a critical point here at Tim Duncan.

After the appearance ceremony, it was to raise the national flag and listen to the national anthem of the United States, An Xi sang the national anthem of the motherland in his heart, thinking about the five-star red flag in his heart, and he hoped to have a successful playoffs.

After the warm-up, the game started quickly, and on the Spurs' side, there were no changes to the starting lineup, starting point guard Tony Parker, scoring guard Anxi, small forward Cowhi Leonard, power forward Boris Dior and center Tim Duncan.

The Jazz made a change of formation before the game, and in the face of a strong opponent Spurs, Dillon Corbyn felt that only by changing the formation of the Jazz could they hope to win the game.

The Jazz's starting lineup is point guard Devin Harris, point guard Gordon Hayward, small forward Josh Howard, power forward Paul Millsap, center Al Jefferson, Dillon Corbyn put Josh Howard from the bench to the starter, the purpose is obvious, he hopes to use Josh Howard's defense to lock a certain point of the Spurs.

As the referee's whistle blew, Tim Duncan and Al Jefferson rose into the air and the two fought for the ball, and finally Tim Duncan grabbed the basketball by virtue of his height.

The Spurs attacked first, and Tony Parker advanced to the front court with the ball and made a gesture, according to which the Spurs fell into position in the front court.

Anxi was still in the bottom corner, with Kawhi Leonard doing a 45-degree on the other side, Tim Duncan near the box and Boris Dior pulling high up.

However, Josh Howard attached Boris Dio, the Jazz's change of defense, caught Popovich's attention, he stood up from the sideline coach's box, put his hands on his chest, and watched the Spurs' offensive wave and the Jazz's defensive response.
