The Spurs' winning streak didn't go far this time, and after winning the Trail Blazers, the Spurs lost to the Jazz away.

The Jazz's home court is really hard to play, especially after Leonard is also rested.

In terms of team defense, the Jazz may be doing better than the Spurs, and that's where they struggle.

Hayward and George Hill, two of the Jazz's top scorers last season, were left and most thought the Jazz were on the rebuild, but they were wrong.

They gave a guy who averaged 7 points per game 53 million for four years, and traded Rubio, who couldn't shoot, and maybe they didn't expect that they would be stronger on the offensive end this season than last season.

Donovan Mitchell, this year's No. 13 show, is this guy who has already scored 40+ in the game, and it is not uncommon for the No. 13 show to become an instant combat force, but immediately became the core of the team, the top scorer, no one would have thought of it.

Not many people paid attention to it before, and then it broke out directly, maybe this guy is also a hanger.

Of course, Spurs mainly lost on the opposing defense.

The away back-to-back is really uncomfortable, Zhang Xiaotian just wants to sleep after the game.

Well, losing this one, the Spurs have fallen to third place in the West.

The competition between the top teams is really fierce, especially in the west, you must know that the record in the east has been slowly falling, and the west has not seen any signs yet.

However, the long season is not yet halfway through, and in order to avoid surprises, teams in Pot 1 must also be careful.

The team's achievements are not only simple results, but also interests, including the interests of the team and the interests of the players, which is not something that cannot be said.

After the Jazz, the Spurs are still away, but the opponent is the Fish Belly King.

The Kings also signed a few players in the summer, mainly veterans, presumably in order for them to bring in newcomers.

They don't have All-Star level players at all right now, and they don't have an absolute core.

Of course, there are still a few former All-Stars, but the strength has dropped dramatically.

The Kings played well in the first quarter, don't look at the belly of the fish, the NBA has no weak brigades, and the saying that there are no weak teams in the NBA is not just talking.

Of course, there is a big gap in the strength of the teams in the league, but the players who can enter the league are all leaders in the basketball field, and it often happens that they break out with talent and defeat the strong with the weak.

But more often than not, it's a game where you play well in the first or second quarter.

By the second quarter, the king was not able to hold on.

The difference between a weak team and a strong team is that they don't take advantage of the advantage and have difficulty turning the tables when they are disadvantaged.

The Spurs are still quite good at controlling the court, and the team firmly grasped the lead in the second half, so they won a victory against the Kings.

The all-star voting has begun, and Yang Feiyu has also made this a top priority.

Zhang Xiaotian still has a lot of irons, plus his current status, there are many neutral fans who like him, and he was like a rainbow from the beginning.

Zhang Xiaotian also increased his interaction with the fans, and this time the captain can be selected, and he is also very interested.

It's very exciting to form a team that you like.

On December 26, the Spurs returned to their home court to face the challenge of the Nets.

The Nets actually made a couple of okay trades in the summer, with D'Angelo Russell, Carroll, and Allen Crabbe all good options.

But Jeremy Lin was reimbursed tragically in the first game of the season, and their defense was even worse to a certain extent.

The results are slightly better than last season, but they are not yet out of the essence of the belly.

For teams with poor defense, Spurs have always been able to control the field well.

From the start of the game, the Nets didn't get any chances.

They played one big and four small, and there was no inside defense, in the face of such a defense, not only Zhang Xiaotian, but Leonard also felt that he had recovered 100%.

As soon as the two were happy, they cut 70 points together, and clocked in half a quarter early.

The toughest part of December is over, and the team can take it easy.

On December 28th, the Knicks visited.

Truth be told, the Knicks have had a good start to the season, although it's a bit downhill right now.

They acquired Tim Hardaway Jr. for 71 million in four years in the summer, and added Beasley and others cheaply, plus the twin towers of the current team's top names Porzingis and Enes Kante, and the team that does not know them is easy to lose.

But the season has been on for so long, and the Knicks' new routine has been touched by other teams.

In addition, the Knicks are also going through a lot of team grief, and there are a lot of injury problems.

The Spurs managed to survive, but the other teams weren't so lucky.

Because of injuries, most of the Knicks' firepower is on the inside, and the Spurs are relieved to shrink.

While Porzingis can also shoot three-pointers, there's always nothing wrong with defensive contraction.

Even so, Boshen scored in double figures and contributed four blocks in the first half.

Spurs didn't care, because they were the ones who were leading, although not much.

This Knicks are undoubtedly tougher to play against than they were when Anthony was there, but the weaknesses are also obvious.

The Spurs' targeting tactics were more successful, but there was one variable, and that was Beasley on the bench.

Beasley is a player like Beasley who goes crazy from time to time, and it's hard to limit when he's crazy.

The good thing is that whether he plays well or badly, he doesn't have much contact with the team.

He gives the impression that he is always outside the team system.

This is one of the reasons why he is a talented player, he can average double-doubles per game by playing casually, but he still can't get a good contract, his personality is actually only part of the story, and his style of play is rarely liked by coaches.

The Spurs are not afraid of him disrupting the game, and the Spurs are stronger than the other side on both offensive and defensive ends.

With the Knicks' defense, it is impossible to prevent the Spurs from scoring.

The overall defense is too poor, and Boshen can not help defend blocks on the inside.

At this time, you can say that the sentence is that basketball is a sport of five people.

The Spurs held the lead in the third quarter, and then Zhang Xiaotian extended the team's score advantage to double digits in the opening wave of the final quarter, and the outcome of the game was almost decided.

Next, even if Beasley showed strong singles, it was useless to score a double-double in the fourth quarter.

At this time, you can see the difference between the team's good system and blind play.

In the last game of December, the Spurs went to play the Pistons on the road.

The team felt a mess in this game, and of course the Pistons' defense was also good.

Both teams fought hard to defend and scored poorly in the first half.

In the second half, Zhang Xiaotian strengthened his personal offense, Drummond's advantage on the inside gave the Spurs a lot of pressure, and Zhang Xiaotian scored in a single quarter and the team still fell behind.

At this time, Zhang Xiaotian no longer had any distractions, just trying to find ways to score.

In this game, he scored 50+ for the first time in the season, and the Pistons were killed by him like this. Reading a book and finding the latest chapters by yourself? You're out, WeChat attention Beauty editor helps you find books! It's really a good book to flirt with girls!
