"0 points and 0 boards, Zhang Xiaotian's NBA future is bleak."

At the beginning of the regular season, Zhang Xiaotian actually received a lot of attention, especially on the other side of the ocean, and many fans stayed in front of the computer just to see his style.

Not playing in the first game has already made many people anxious, and in the second game, he didn't score any data in two minutes and took a foul, and many people couldn't stand it.

Not to mention those who hacked him, many fans who supported him before have also lost patience.

Zhang Xiaotian is not an All-Star, and his fans are basically curious about his Chinese identity and attracted by his summer league and preseason performances.

He can't even get a chance to play now, so naturally he can't keep the fans.

"Why should we worry about a foreigner, we can't play without strength, this is professional basketball."

"Let's disperse, Zhang Xiaotian's strength is to be lively in the summer, and there are more people like this."

Fans who still like Zhang Xiaotian can't refute it, so they can only weakly respond that Spurs don't give a chance, if they give a chance, Zhang Xiaotian will definitely be able to perform well and so on.

But they don't believe it themselves, if Zhang Xiaotian is really good, how can the Spurs not give a chance.

Popovich is not like some stubborn coach, he is willing to give newcomers a chance.

"I'm so angry, those guys used to pretend that they were your fans, and now they are leaving messages to scold you."

"It seems that you pay attention to me, it's an honor, athletes just rely on their results, it's normal for me to be scolded for not showing results now, and I don't care what those undetermined fans do."

"I know that I pay attention to you, why haven't you followed me yet."

The woman's thinking is too jumpy, and Zhang Xiaotian can't keep up for a while, but he is not a little boy who doesn't know anything, so he immediately asked Yang Feiyu's social account.

Obviously, Zhang Dajun also called, but hearing Yang Feiyu's voice was still more healing.

It seems that Dad is right, he needs to find a girlfriend.

Zhang Xiaotian said that it didn't matter, but he was holding his breath in his heart, and he worked extra hard in training the next day.

On November 3, the Spurs hosted the visiting Utah Jazz.

The Jazz have added firepower to their backcourt this summer, trading Morris Williams and signing Randy Foye, and they also have some ideas.

Spurs Ginobili is back this time, and it is still unknown whether Zhang Xiaotian can play.

However, the team that has worked hard in his training has seen it, at least he will not pull down the activation list.

This game was different from the previous two, as soon as the Spurs came up in the backcourt.

Parker scored consecutive points, and Danny Green also broke out with four shots and four without missing a single shot to score 10 points.

The Spurs easily led by 11 points for the first time, and Zhang Xiaotian was also watching to see where the gap between him and the starters and even the main rotation players was.

I have to say that if he had chosen to go to the Magic team, even if he couldn't start, he would definitely be the main rotation, and it can only be said that the Spurs are too strong.

Zhang Xiaotian is good at the second and third positions, Leonard needless to say, the team focuses on cultivating young people, Danny Green is more stable defensively, does not want the ball at all, and is also very young, the substitute Ginobili is one of the team's giants, Stephen Jackson is a little contradictory to the head coach, but he has a lot of experience.

The Spurs are off to a good start, and Popovich certainly won't change easily.

That is, whether he plays in the second or third position, he is only the team's third choice.

What Zhang Xiaotian has to do now is to keep improving and seize opportunities when the team needs him.

It's just patience that's easier said than done, and the Spurs didn't reassure him.

In fact, Zhang Xiaotian feels that he can replace Stephen Jackson after adapting to the rhythm of the NBA, but his status is declining with an annual salary of tens of millions.

It's a pity that he's not a head coach, so he still needs to prove his strength in the regular season.

Ginobili came back to play well, and Stephen Jackson didn't play well off the bench, but Duncan came back in the second quarter, and the Spurs led by 20 points at one point.

Zhang Xiaotian and a few buddies who didn't have a chance to play were praying, so they could just beat each other well, and they could also go up to be refreshed.

With an 18-point lead at halftime, there was also laughter in the halftime locker room.

If the second half continues, Popovich will definitely not let the main team continue to stay on the field.

But what I didn't expect was that the Spurs were squandered at the beginning of the third quarter, Parker hit all kinds of iron, and the Jazz first hit a three-pointer by Gordon Hayward, and then Morris Williams and Paul Millsap made various shots.

Morris Williams was originally a nerve knife, and there was no way to do it on time, the key was Millsap, who could also shoot three-pointers, and his athleticism was good, Duncan's footsteps couldn't keep up, and Matt Bonner couldn't guard against it.

The 18-point lead was gone when it was gone, and the two sides were tied in the third quarter.

Not to mention that Zhang Xiaotian vomited blood, Popovich just didn't have a knife in his hand, otherwise he would have to cut people based on the posture.

Just when Zhang Xiaotian thought that there was no drama today, Popovich, who had a very bad face, called him and Nando de Collo's names.

Popovich was angry and thought there was something wrong with the defensive attitude of the players who were ahead, so the two newcomers were a blessing in disguise.

Two newcomers Gaginobili plus Danny Greene Galenard, the Spurs don't even want the inside.

Even the commentary was surprised, the Jazz's interior line is short, but there is still an interior line, but the score is tied, are the Spurs crazy.

The Spurs were the first to attack in the fourth quarter, with Ginobili possessing the ball.

Zhang Xiaotian faced Millsap, and the Jazz wanted to take advantage of the victory to chase down, except for Randy Foyer who replaced Marvin Williams, the other four main players were still on the court.

Millsap is actually not much taller than Zhang Xiaotian, but as the fourth position, his strength is much stronger.

Zhang Xiaotian made up his mind, with him, Millsap didn't want to throw outside.

Because there is no interior line, the Spurs stretch the offensive line very wide, and all five people on the court have three-point ability, and the Jazz don't dare to go too far.

As a result, Ginobili directly broke through the running shot and scored.

The Jazz team has a huge advantage on the inside, of course, it is a drop position, and the ball is quickly handed to Millsap, because Zhang Xiaotian, who defends him, looks like a bully.

Millsap didn't take Zhang Xiaotian in his eyes at all, turned around after receiving the ball with his back, and actually dribbled like a small forward and pressed a step inside, squeezed with strength, and then pulled up and shot.

Zhang Xiaotian was indeed squeezed out of the way, but his bullet speed was faster than that of the other party.

He quickly jumped up and stretched out his long arm to meet Millsap's shot.

Leonard caught the ball that was disturbed and immediately passed to Ginobili, Ginobili quickly dribbled through the half court with a scalpel-like pass, Zhang Xiaotian in the frenzy started directly, and Randy Foyera didn't pull it was a shocking dunk.
