And the Spurs are also brewing an opportunity to strengthen the interior line.

The Spurs' interior defense has dropped a notch with Duncan's retirement, and now Popovich needs to find someone who can guard the interior.

The Spurs' home opponent this time is the Orlando Magic, who are still in the stage of fish belly, and the Spurs won this game easily, but the victory is not the main thing, Popovich is mainly looking at one person, Sergi Ibaka.

Formerly the Thunder's fourth-fewest and former league block king, Ibaka's strength is obvious to all, and Popovich has shown his interest in the former, and if he is brought in to the Spurs, the interior defense should be improved.

After the game, Popovich reached out to Magic management and Ibaka's agent to look for a trade.

Serge Ibaka is defensively strong and also has mid-to-long-range shooting ability, which is exactly what Spurs need to strengthen.

Preliminary talks have already been held between the two sides, with the Magic sending Ibaka and the Spurs sending David Lee and Murray.

The Magic are in a rebuilding period, and Ibaka says he can't wait any longer and that a potential star like Murray with tall arms is what they're interested in.

But it's not trade day yet, and the Spurs need to face a tough opponent today, the Cavaliers.

LeBron came with Loew and Irving, and the Spurs were serious about the game.

The Spurs' strong opponent in the Western Conference is the Warriors, and there used to be the Thunder, but now Durant has gone to the Warriors, so there is only one goal in the Western Conference, to beat the Warriors.

And in the East, the Cavaliers are the Spurs' number one rival in the East.

Before the start of the game, LeBron came to the technical table to throw magnesium powder, and although he was away, he still drew cheers.

At the start of the game, the Cavaliers jumped the ball to win, and Irving quickly controlled the ball to the frontcourt, usually in the first quarter to give Loew the task of finishing the offense, who asked for the ball in the low post, and the former immediately hit the ground and passed the ball.

Ade defended Loew, only to see that after the latter dribbled a few times with his back, he turned directly and hooked his hand, but unfortunately hit the iron.

It was the Spurs' turn to attack, Parker controlled the ball and advanced, and the four people in the front court began to cover each other for running, Leonard got an open opportunity, and after receiving the pass, he raised his hand and threw the ball in.

This time, He Dong played as a starting point guard, and in the previous games, he won Popovich's trust with his performance.

Tielin's ups and downs are no longer suitable for starting, but he has no complaints, after all, there is only a difference between starting and starting at Spurs.

On the court, Parker's footsteps are not as good as before, so the task of defending Irving is handed over to Ho Dong.

Halfway through the first quarter, there was a chance for Owen and He Dong to play one-on-one.

8 people on the field consciously pulled away, giving the two space to go head-to-head.

The two faced each other at the 45-degree three-point line, and Owen made a few quick dribbles under his crotch, and then suddenly accelerated in front of his body, and wanted to force overtake.

He Dong hurriedly followed, not letting him break through easily, and sighed secretly in his heart: "Owen's speed is really fast!" ”

The breakthrough was blocked, Owen looked slightly surprised, he didn't expect this Chinese kid who had recently started to be famous so fast, if it was in the past, Owen would have passed the opponent a long time ago.

But he was not in a hurry, and when he couldn't break through, he immediately withdrew the ball with a dribble from behind, and then broke through from the other direction.

This change of direction was too fast, and He Dong felt that he couldn't keep up, but he still gritted his teeth and rushed over.

The next moment, Owen suddenly rose from the ground, made a quick stop jump shot, and hit the board.

Owen originally thought that he could completely get rid of He Dong and then score a layup just now, but he didn't expect He Dong to still appear in front of him, there was no way, Owen could only choose a stop-and-go jump shot.

Irving's offensive ability LeBron knew it, and when he saw He Dong's defensive ability, he nodded silently.

The Spurs attacked again, and after a few runs, the basketball came to He Dong's hands, and it was LeBron who was defending him at this time.

He Dong felt a little excited about LeBron, and he wanted to try who was stronger in his body or LeBron.

After a few crossovers, He Dong suddenly accelerated to the mid-range position, and then began to push with his back.

When he broke through, He Dong already felt that LeBron's body was extraordinary, and when he hit his back, this feeling was especially strong.

You will feel as if there is a wall behind you, and every contact will make you feel like you can't move forward.

But Ho Dong still pushed to 45 degrees on the edge of the penalty area.

Perfect shoulder sway, perfect turn and back, perfect goal.

LeBron jumped high and was just a little away from the block, but missed.

The picturesque goal attracted the cheers of the audience, and many loyal fans of He Dong began to dance, and they were bursting with enthusiasm for this Chinese boy.

The DJ at the scene also quickly played a hot dance song, and the atmosphere was pushed to a climax.

I don't know and think that the Spurs have won the game, otherwise how could they be so high?

After several attacks in a row, the Spurs finally passed the ball to He Dong's hands, holding the ball in his hand, He Dong played steadily and steadily, using his strength to frequently eat the Cavaliers' weak quarterback.

Back to the back, no one to wrap up the jumper, someone to wrap up and pass to the open teammate, the offense is sometimes so simple.

Cavaliers coach Tyronn Lue has a gloomy face at the moment, He Dong looks too unstoppable on the court, and the Cavaliers need to strangle He Dong if they want to win this game.

After calling a timeout, Lew began to lay out the tactics, and while explaining the tactics, he listened to James and changed some of the arrangements.

He Dong needs to be taken care of on the defensive end, and the Cavaliers plan to let LeBron defend and Irving mark.

Lu feels that with LeBron's defensive ability and Irving, who is eyeing him from the sidelines, it should not be a problem to defend He Dong.

On the Spurs' side, Popovich also assigned a task to Ho Dong, switching defenses with Leonard and defending LeBron.

"Be careful, he's fast and very strong." Leonard said to He Dong with an expressionless face.

At the end of the timeout, the head-to-head confrontation between He Dong and LeBron officially kicked off.

With two minutes left in the first quarter, the two teams still have a few rounds left to play.

The Cavaliers attacked, LeBron got the ball in the low post, and He Dong leaned on him tightly.

The back hit pushed a few times, LeBron suddenly turned around, and was about to make a move, He Dong stepped forward and hurried to follow.

But the next moment, LeBron suddenly turned around again, shot from the other direction, and hit the board.

The action was fast, and He Dong couldn't keep up a little.

The Spurs attacked, and after a few runs, He Dong received the ball near the free throw line, and LeBron was tightly pressed at this time, making He Dong feel that there was a wall behind him.

He Dong moved a few times, and suddenly felt a gust of wind hitting his side, and with a glance, Owen's hand had reached out.

Quickly pass the ball to Parker on the outside, and then accelerate to the other side outside the three-point line.

At this time, he received Parker's return pass, faced LeBron, and shot directly into three points.
