With a cigar burning in his hand, Popovich sat alone in his study, somewhat uncertain. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The strange and familiar young man in the TV in front of him made him feel too much shock.

It's like the first time I saw Duncan's performance on the court, and a strong premonition rose in his heart - "He's going to be shocking!" ”

"Is this the young man we gave up?"

Taking a hard puff on his cigar, Popovich was stimulated and began to cough violently, but it couldn't interrupt his memories of some scenes from a year ago.

He felt remorse!

Huge and violent!

"What a team leader!"

In Popovich's heart at this time, Shi Lei is very much like Duncan, the soul of his team, regardless of position, the two of them have too much in common.

The same low-key and silent, the same calm and persistent, the same tireless pursuit of victory, the same non-personal data, the same like to share and trust their teammates!

"If we keep him, we can continue to be brilliant for at least ten years!"

Popovich couldn't help but think so, although, everything could not have changed in any way!

What would Duncan and Shi Lei look like? Popovich is sure that their achievements will not be lower than the "twin towers" formed by the Spurs when the old and the new alternate last time!

Shi Lei is more tough, which is a very important trait for defense, and in more important games, Shi Lei's play is often more stable and outstanding, which is David. What is missing from Robinson, well, Shi Lei does not have the offensive talent of "Admiral", but Popovich does not think this is very important, compared to the advantages that Shi Lei has, this is actually not a concern!

And Shi Lei also has a gorgeous dunk that amazes the entire league!

There is also a big market behind him that everyone should envy!

What else could stop his rise?

Popovich shook his head, he knew that nothing in this world could stop this young man from rising, except for himself and God!

The players from both sides returned to the dressing room and the game entered the half-time period, with 50:57 on the scoreboard, with the home team in front and the away team in the back. After Shi Lei came on the court in the second quarter, the Celtics began their own journey of chasing points, they not only erased the huge loss of 21 points in the first quarter, but also surpassed the score by 7 points, that is, in this quarter, the Celtics beat the Lakers by 28 points.

It's a playoff game, it's a Finals, it's a game between two championship teams!

In this quarter of the game, Shi Lei scored 21 points in a single quarter, which is still the result, after the Lakers made adjustments, the defensive pressure on him increased, and he began to focus on organizing the team's offense!

Another team tasted the bitter fruit of Shi Lei's breakthrough!

With his tremendous strength and rare speed, his breakthrough has become a "sharp weapon" for the "siege" of the stadium that can be used for a long time!

At this point, Shi Lei is more like Duncan, and the most important scoring means that Duncan relies on is only "playing the board and shooting"!

The bitterness on Popovich's face was a little heavier: "That was a terrible choice, it's hard to imagine that I gave up a team cornerstone a year ago because of a role player!" ”

It was only then that Popovich began to face up to Shi Lei's efforts in San Antonio, and in that situation where there was almost no future in sight, how many people could do as hard as they always did?

There is no playing time, sitting by the water cooler, the biggest job is to hand towels and water to teammates, and cheers, even if it is a genius, most of them will be wasted if they sit like this for a year.

"Effort, brain!"

Popovich muttered these two words in his heart, took another hard puff on the cigar in his hand, and then thought of White, whom he had chosen to stay.

"Okay, I'll give you a chance!"

Shi Lei is a temptation that Popovich can't refuse now, and this temptation is too great to shake Popovich's insistence...... Popovich actually wanted to cut White, in this year's playoffs, White's performance was even more unbearable than that of Reedno last year, he was not only at a loss on the offensive end, but also contributed only seven fouls on the defensive end!

The second year of White's two-year contract was a non-guaranteed contract, and at this turning point in his life, his fate changed again.

"It's incredible, I thought Celtic were going to have a humiliating defeat in this game!"

After the team's comeback, Bird's mouth finally loosened, and he confessed the despair that had existed in his heart after the first quarter.

"Yes, who would think that, not only you, but also me, and Doug. Rivers, and Paul. Pierce, Kevin. Garnett...... Including everyone, except him! ”

There are some things that can only be felt in retrospect, when you feel the preciousness of that time. In Bill. Under Wharton's manipulation, the live broadcast camera was pulled back to the moment at the end of the first quarter!

Rivers roared, the Celtics players looked like ashes, and then Shi Lei stood up from the sidelines, although it was impossible to hear what they said at the time from the camera, but it was obvious that after this moment, the Celtics were inexplicably "alive".

The camera is advancing little by little, and finally freezes in the eyes of Shi Lei and Rivers, Shi Lei's dull and calm face, and Rivers's bruised face because of anger, were played out of the camera for a long time.

"Curious what he said at the time?"

Tolbert said with some regret.

"We'll have to wait until after the game, and I think there will be reporters who will interview Doug about it, and the lip experts will be willing to translate what they're talking about."

Bill. As soon as Wharton's words fell, the four people in the commentary table received a message from the people behind the TV station.

"Oh, deciphered it out, and he said to Rivers: 'Leave it to me, sir, and I'll deal with him!'"

"Stone, offense, the team needs your offense, you have unlimited right to fire!"

The role-play begins, and Bill is the first to speak. Wharton grabbed the opportunity to star in the lead role, while Bird could only be a supporting role in Rivers. Well, Tolbert is the audience, Johnson? Is he still there?

"Stone, offense, the team needs your offense, you have unlimited right to fire!"

"No, no, trust me, we'll get back the score soon, these old guys just took a nap!"

"Hey, old guy, it's time to get up, it's not time to rest, and if you continue to sleep, the Angelenos will take our championship rings!"

"yes, they're about to take our championship rings, so what are we going to do now?"

....... When Tolbert finally got the chance to participate, he shouted as if he were there: "Fight! (To be continued.) )
