But he didn't have much to say in his first season, so he could only sit there and get angry.

The Clippers have a lineup on the court at this time, with Bledsoe and Mo Williams on the outside, Nick Young and Kenyon Martin on the front, and Reggie Evans at center.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Dio held the ball in the high post, and his entry into the bench could free up Ginobili's offensive ability.

This was the first to hit the earth, and after the "Demon Knife" received the ball, he made a serpentine breakthrough layup, and also made Evans a beating foul.

After his free throw, the Spurs were 31-30 and took the lead as soon as they came up.

Popovich's vision of people is really unique, and who can harden him is clear in his heart.

Paul couldn't sit still, got up and yelled at Bledsoe, motioning for him to hold on to Ginobili.

De Nagro's expression is relatively calm, in his opinion, the average age of the team is on the older side, and the defense is like that.

It's all about playing well and this first quarter is a great example of that.

Bledsoe held the ball on the outside, the Clippers played zone coordination in the frontcourt, Martin blocked Williams, and Evans also covered Nick Young for the run.

To say that the Clippers only had Williams as a scoring point before, and the opponent was good at defense.

Now there is one more Yang, and both wings are running to contain it, which is easy for the opponent to lose sight of the other.

Bledsoe saw the opportunity and flicked the ball to Nick Young.

"Smack!"

However, as soon as the ball was passed, it was directly stealed by Tang Tianyi, who was saved!

The Spurs' defense counterattacked, and Ginobili went straight to the front court to make a rebound.

5 to 0!

The Spurs have a really good lineup.

"Look at people when you pass the ball! Don't get caucarded! De Nagro shouted at Bledsoe at this time.

Bledsoe dribbled the ball into the frontcourt, and this time he was careful and waited for Young to come out before giving the ball over.

Tang Tian was very decisive in blocking and dismantling, and did not give Yang a chance to shoot directly.

Bledsoe wanted to reorganize the ball and was ignored by Young.

As soon as Yang received the ball, he entered the singles king mode, which was not looking at his teammates, he was ready to lean his back against Tang Tian, and he wanted to play singles when he looked at the posture.

Bledsoe reluctantly motioned for his teammates to pull away.

Yang turned in succession, followed by a trademark turn and leaned back.

"Smack!"

But before he could make a move, Tang Tian slapped the ball in his hand away!

Consecutive steals!

There is no possibility of passing the ball to Yang, Tang Tian only needs to stare at the timing of his shot.

This cut ball is a clean cut.

Ginobili returned the ball to Leonard on a fast break, and Leonard scored with a one-handed dunk.

The Spurs went on a 7-0 run.

Paul had already stood up.

But De Nagro still didn't mean to change, his hand was on his cheek, and his expression was very serious.

The Clippers' offense, Bledsoe gave the ball to Martin inside, Martin hit Leonard on his back, and turned around at the right time.

"Smack!"

But when he turned around, the ball was gone!

It's Tang Tian again!

His attention was all on Leonard, and he didn't notice Tang Tian who came over quickly to help defend at all!

Third steal in a row!

Ginobili gave the ball to Green who followed up in this fast break, and Green also scored a three-pointer.

10 to 0!

"Hey, man, is that ball hot?"

Barkley couldn't help but start complaining in the commentary seat at this time.

Bledsoe, Young, and Martin conceded one by one, giving the Spurs three fast-break opportunities for nothing.

"As I said, he's going to play a good game."

O'Neill said with a slight hint at this time.

It wasn't just about scoring points to perform well, and the three steals in a row were quite dazzling.

Popovich was in a good mood at this time.

Just like playing the Clippers in the regular season, this lineup at this point is really a dozen and one accurate.

De Nagro on the opposite side and Carlisle in the first round are two extremes.

A clever woman is difficult to cook without rice, and a good deck of cards is empty but a pair of kings are fried first.

Paul was about to take the initiative to ask for help, but De Nagro reached out and called a timeout, almost causing him to choke his chest in one breath and choke his internal injuries.

Tang Tian was walking to the bench at this time, and he also wanted to laugh when he saw De Nagro.

This De Nagro is really not a dish, especially in a game like the playoffs.

Obviously, there is no advantage in the alignment and no substitutions, there is no tactics in defense, and the offensive tactics are extremely single......

Maybe he has some unknown abilities in other areas, but as a coach, he doesn't have an on-the-spot response or a tactical system, and he may really be a relative of Clippers owner Raheem Sterling.

Tang Tian turned his head and saw Popovich smiling and giving him a thumbs up.

That should mean that Tang Tian is the hardest of the five people he sent.

After a timeout, the Clippers finally adjusted.

De Nagro replaced Evans and Bledsoe, bringing on Paul and Griffin early.

Popovich also put Duncan and Parker on when he saw it, and replaced Leonard and Green.

Paul misplaced Dior's mid-range back-to-back shot to finally help the Clippers continue to score.

However, they are still six points behind the Spurs at this time.

On the Spurs' offense, Duncan made a no-ball block for Tang Tian, but Parker didn't give the ball over at the first time.

The opportunity was fleeting, and Tang Tian chose to pull Martin away to give Duncan enough space to misplace singles.

"Somebody only has 18 percent of the vote."

Martin's head was not facing Tang Tian, but he spoke loudly.

Martin is deliberately trying to provoke him with the best rookie thing.

Parker had already given the ball to Duncan by this time, Duncan was misplaced and Young, and Griffin came from the weak side to help defend.

"Some people were punched and fined!"

Tang Tian said lightly at this time.

He is not really a nineteen-year-old hot-blooded young man, how can he be so easily provoked.

But if he wants to say bad things, he will be afraid of Martin?

Sure enough, Martin turned his head sharply, and the anger on his face immediately rose.

But before he could get mad, Tang Tian suddenly moved quickly to the position at a forty-five degree angle to the right.

Martin was stunned and lost his kung fu.

The Clippers' attention was all on Duncan under the basket and Dio who might catch the ball, and Tang Tian's run was completely unnoticed.

Duncan saw it, and the flick was a pass.

Tang Tian's action of receiving the ball and making a three-point shot.

Martin flew over at this point.

Tang Tian made a feint to trick Martin, and then took a step to the side to make a move.

"Huh!"

Tang Tian's three points fell into the bag steadily.

The Spurs stretched the margin to 9 points!

This is also the biggest point difference between the two sides since the start of the game.

After Tang Tian scored the goal, he looked at Martin who rushed back, smiled at him, and almost didn't jump the latter angrily.

Fight with me, it's still tender!

Do you really think that the punch you did last time was youthful blood?

Young!

It's just to see that you're unhappy and want to punch you!

The Clippers' offense, Paul made a rare dribbling error when he broke through, and directly dribbled the ball to the instep and lost the ball.

It's really like Barkley said, this ball is hot!

The Spurs play fast break.

Paul reacted quickly after losing the ball and chased Parker directly.

Parker had no chance to break to the front court and gave the ball to Tang Tian, who followed up in the middle.

Tang Tian knew that Yang was chasing closely behind him, so he didn't stop at the three-point line, but dribbled into the three-point line.

After receiving Parker's pass, he saw Paul defending and knew that the layup would be a small move, so he held back his strength and dunked directly with both hands that jumped the ball.

"Bang!"

Accidentally, he pressed the ball into the basket past Paul!

The sidelines exploded instantly.

“！”

Barkley had a constipated expression.

Tang Tian, deduct Paul!

Although the bounce height is limited, after all, it is the body of a swinging guard, and Paul has no ability to resist at all!

Paul was obviously a little unhappy after being detained, and he inadvertently pushed him back without waiting for Tang Tian to land.

After Tang Tian landed, he walked up to him and looked down at him.

When the referee saw this, he hurried over to separate the two.

The Spurs and Clippers fought 2 of the 3 regular season games, with a 66.7% probability of fighting, which makes the referee always on high alert.

However, Tang Tian soon retreated.

Attitude has to be expressed, but now that the Spurs are gaining momentum, there is nothing good about the clashes.

The Spurs have stretched the margin to 11 points.

De Nagro had already returned to the bench.

Paul didn't do anything, and he couldn't do anything about it.

The Spurs have been on a solid run since building a double-digit lead.

The Clippers were like people overboard, struggling to poke their heads out a few times, but were quickly pushed back down.

In the end, the Spurs defeated the Clippers 103-91 at home to get their first win in the Western Conference semifinals.

In terms of statistics.

Paul and Griffin combined for 60 points, but the role players played poorly, scoring a total of 31 points.

On the Spurs' side, Parker scored a team-high 25 points and 6 assists, Duncan contributed a double-double of 13 points and 11 boards, Ginobili chipped in 17 points and 5 assists, and Dior had 10 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists.

Tang Tian had dazzling performances on both offensive and defensive ends, playing 30 minutes, shooting 7 of 11, 4 of 7 three-pointers, and scoring 18 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, 5 steals and 1 block.

After the game, Tang Tian was interviewed by Sarina on the sidelines.

"It was a very good game, you played a really good game, does that have anything to do with the best results in the past?"

Sarina asked.

At this time, there were still many spectators who had not left, and when they saw Tang Tian being interviewed, they also gathered in the stands behind them.

"No, it doesn't matter with that, I'm just playing."

Tang Tian said very calmly, he felt good tonight, so the score looked a bit high.

As for the defense, this De Nagro wants to send, and it is impossible for him to refuse others!

Sarina was speechless for a while, this Tang Tian said no every time, but her body was very honest.

You played a game of 18 points and 5 steals and said it didn't matter!

"What do you think of the poll results? Best Rookie's. Unwillingly, she asked.

"Irving is the best rookie of the year, he's doing great, and I'm going to let him treat me to dinner in the summer." Tang Tian said with a smile.

Owen, as one of the four brothers who have worked hard, will definitely not be able to run away from this meal.

"Don't you care about your ranking?" Sarina asked.

"Mine? Is there anything to care about? Is there any essential difference between second and last? I can't get the trophy anyway. ”

Tang Tian replied very suddenly, in fact, this was also his true thoughts.

Not to mention the best rookie, there are many awards in the NBA every year.

Maybe it's going to be a meeting for a while, but after that, who cares who is the second or third in these awards?

Tang Tian's answer also drew cheers from the audience on the stage.

It's really rare to have such an open-minded mindset as a rookie.

Two days later, Game 2 of the Spurs-Clippers series resumed in San Antonio.

Probably because of the loss in the first game, the Clippers started the game with a bad offense, and the Spurs built a double-digit lead in the first quarter.

The rest of the game was like grinding beans, the Spurs kept pulling away the score, and the Clippers were crushed little by little.

When the Spurs stretched the margin to 20 points at the end of the third quarter, Paul angrily applied for a second technical foul and left the game directly.

In the end, the Spurs defeated the Clippers 106-83 at home, turning the series to 2-0.

Two rounds 2-0.

The Spurs look like they play team basketball and don't have superstar stats, but they still have a lot of GDP power, plus a bunch of high-quality role players and a coach who fans call Zhuge Vic.

When it comes to a real fight, only the opponent can feel the despair.

Paul, the league's No. 1 point guard; Griffin, a top-five power forward in the league; Jordan Jr., a top-10 center in the league.

Add to that former All-Star veterans like Martin and sixth-man level players like Young and Williams.

The Clippers have a luxurious lineup, and they didn't take advantage of it.

The post-match press conference was attended by both Paul and Griffin.

'It was a terrible game tonight but we knew it was their home stadium and some of the penalties were going to be in their favour and a pretty visual statistic was whether they got 20 or 22 free throws and we only had 10.

Paul raised the issue of the scale of the penalty in front of the media.

'I had physical contact with Duncan on the inside, with Split and even with Blair, but the referee didn't blow the whistle and I hope that will change when I get back home.'

Griffin is also complaining.

Judging from the reactions of the two main generals, they seem to attribute the reason more to the penalty scale.

After the first two games, the two teams will move to Los Angeles for the next two games.

On the plane, the team members chatted non-existently.

Ginobili was talking about his old dog looking at a little next door, as if he was about to rejuvenate himself.

Dio is talking about his father, Senegal's national high jumper, when he was younger.

Parker is recording a video of his new girlfriend, Xela Francin.

Leonard was wearing headphones and listening to a CD that he didn't know whose it was.

……

"Don, did you watch the news in the morning? Both Paul and Griffin are complaining about the referee's penalty scale. ”

Green sat opposite Tang Tian and said to him at this time.

"team." Tang Tian nodded and said.

"What?" Green didn't understand.

"Only would babble and complain." Tang Tian repeated.

He had read the morning news, and Paul and Griffin's complaints were unjustified.

The Clippers have a poor defense, and the Spurs' tactics have a lot of air cuts and combinations, and it's completely normal for them to foul a lot.

On the other hand, the Clippers have more offensive shots on their own, but they don't feel good, and they definitely don't make fewer free throws.

Not talking about the game, only talking about the statistics after the game is playing hooligan.

The Spurs arrived in Los Angeles a day early.

Because of the long rest after the first round, Popovich also arranged a daily defensive practice that afternoon.

After the training, the players went to the locker room one after another.

"Don, let's compare the three-point shot."

What Tang Tian didn't expect was that Ginobili wanted to compete with him for three-point shots on a whim.

The result can be imagined, Tang Tian easily and freely hung Ginobili.

Although the three points of the demon knife are very stable, they are not at the same level as Tang Tian if they are pure throwing.

However, after losing, Ginobili didn't care, and led Tang Tian to the locker room with a smile.

Tang Tian's puzzled face, the familiar scene, always made him feel that these guys were going to do something.
