There is no doubt that such a heavyweight match has naturally attracted a lot of attention.

In addition to the national broadcast of the game, the game was broadcast on many television stations from all over the world, so by the 30 minutes before the game began, the entire arena was already in a pre-tournament atmosphere.

In the tunnel of the players in the stands, the fans are constantly pouring in, and in the commentary area of the scene, the broadcast teams are also carrying out the final equipment adjustment before the commentary.

On the field, the players on both sides are already in place, and the players on both sides are actively preparing for the final warm-up before the game.

When the live footage of the local TV station in San Antonio showed the core players of both sides on the field, a picture that made people laugh and cry showed the other side of the game.

Spurs head coach Popovich is communicating with Green Army point guard Irving in the middle line at this time, and no one may know the specific content of the exchange between the two, but at least, the jokes are running throughout, looking at the picture of the two talking and laughing, it is hard to imagine that they are about to start a fierce fight.

On the other side of the middle line, Jin Feng's behavior made the atmosphere even more relaxed, he was teasing the child of a VIP fan on the sidelines, as if there was no need for him to warm up at this time.

"yes, it's nothing, it's just a normal regular season, look, the players on both sides are always relaxed!" The most powerful wall grass in this era is the media, they are the ones who made this game a "brutal meat grinder" like a game, and now they are the same ones who say that this is just an ordinary regular season game.

Maybe this is really a very ordinary game, but because of the interests contained in the media rendering, this game suddenly has a different flavor.

…………

Half an hour later, with the referee's whistle, the game officially began.

The starting line-ups for this match are as follows:

Away Celtics: Point guard Kyrie Irving, scoring guard Smart, small forward Jaylen Brown, power forward Al Horford, center Baines!

Home team Spurs: point guard Tony Parker, scoring guard Jin Feng, small forward Kyle Anderson, power forward Pau Gasol, center LaMarcus Aldridge!

In the jump ball, Spurs veteran Baynes helped the Celtics get the first wave of offensive possession.

The basketball came to Irving's hands, and then, Irving began to advance with the ball, and the game officially began.

As far as the Celtics' starting lineup is concerned, the most threatening point is undoubtedly Irving, Irving's scoring ability is so good that once he gets into the rhythm, it is almost impossible for anyone to stop him.

Popovich knew this very well, so he directly handed over the task of defending Irving to Jin Feng, at least, this is how he arranged it at the beginning of the game.

As a point guard, having an excellent dribbling skill is almost a hard requirement, and Irving is no exception, however, compared to other point guards in the league, Irving's dribbling skills are at a level, gorgeous and fancy are synonymous with Irving's dribbling skills, and these are enough to make him have a place in NBA history.

Last season, in the regular season and the playoff finals, the Spurs played against the Cavaliers a total of seven times, and in those seven games, Jin Feng was absent, and Irving, who was still with the Cavaliers at the time, was also absent.

Therefore, there have actually been many confrontations between the two, and for Jin Feng, Irving is the most difficult one to defend among all the point guards he has defended, in other words, Irving has left a deep impression on him.

For Owen, Jin Feng may be the main reason for his abnormal performance in the finals last season, and Jin Feng caused him a lot of pressure on the defensive end.

Therefore, at this time, when the two faced each other on the court again, it was natural to attach importance to each other.

After holding the ball to the front court, Jin Feng appeared in front of Owen as soon as possible, Owen frowned unconsciously, he felt the pressure.

However, that's all, he's Kyrie Irving no longer the Kyrie Irving of last season, and now many people think that he, Kyrie Irving, is already the league's No. 1 point guard.

Irving controlled the ball with his left hand, and made a gesture with his right hand at Horford at the free throw line, and then Horford pulled to the high post and blocked Jin Feng with his body.

Taking advantage of this gap, Irving quickly took a step to the left, and then immediately dribbled the ball, opening his hand to shoot three points, which is his most accustomed three-point position, and still remembers the fatal three-point shot he threw in this position at the last moment of the 2015~2016 season finals and the Warriors' seven-tiebreaker.

It felt good, and Irving's three-point shot was solid.

Jin Feng was a little annoyed in his heart, the moment Owen gestured to Horford, he actually realized what Owen wanted to do, but he still took a step slow and gave Owen a chance.

Spurs' offense, Parker advanced with the ball, and after Jin Feng arrived at the frontcourt, he quickly ran from the bottom corner of the right side through the bottom line to the bottom corner of the left side, during which Smart followed him.

Jin Feng can defend Owen on the defensive end, but Owen's target on the defensive end is not Jin Feng, with Owen's competitive character, it is obviously not that he doesn't want to defend Jin Feng, mainly in terms of the ability of the outside defensive end of this lineup on the court, he Owen is still a little worse, Jin Feng is the most threatening point on the outside of the Spurs lineup, so it is natural that Smart will defend the defensive titaries, as for Owen, he is responsible for opposing Parker.

Parker tried a break from the top of the arc with the ball, and he used Gasol's block to get rid of Irving, but just as he was about to continue the rush, Baines immediately blocked his breakthrough path, and in desperation, Parker took the ball out again.

On the other side, Jin Feng Gosmart continued to entangle, Smart is worthy of the Green Army's defensive gate, in addition to his physical fitness is very good, his defensive awareness is also very good, Jin Feng tried to get rid of it several times, but failed to do so.

Seeing Parker's failure to break through, Jin Feng was a little anxious, and he told himself that he had to come up with a way, otherwise, this wave of attacks might be in vain.

What's the key?

Soon, Jin Feng had an idea, and his speed immediately soared, and he quickly ran to Gasol in a high position, not surprisingly, Smart also quickly followed, however, Smart also made the same mistake as Jin Feng just now, he realized what Jin Feng wanted to do, but his reaction was a little slow, and in addition, Jin Feng's speed was too fast.

Therefore, the result in the next second was that Jin Feng used Gasol's cover to successfully get rid of Smart's defense, and then quickly rushed to the left area of the outside arc, and when Parker quickly passed the ball to him, he was up and down, and the three-point shot was instantaneous.

Three-point shots are also hit!
