Chapter 244: War Spurs

From where Yao Ming said goodbye and went back, Cao Jian also embarked on a new journey.

Next stop, San Antonio Spurs.

However, before that, Cao Jian still has to redeem some rewards in the system, the last game Cao Jian also completed the task well on the road, defeated the Rockets, won the Chinese derby, this game, Cao Jian played extremely well and lived up to expectations, cutting 37 points, 10 assists and 2 steals, leading the Cavaliers forward.

Of course, Cao Jian also received a reward, according to the system, this is a reward of 500,000 experience points.

These 500,000 experience points are precious for Cao Jian.

Now Cao Jian is desperate to improve his strength, and this experience point is indispensable for him.

According to 1,000,000 experience points 1 strongest coin and 1 strongest coin 2 points, then Cao Jian has now got a point, as long as he earns another fifty experience points, then Cao Jian can increase by 2 points.

Now Cao Jian's strength has reached 44 points, plus 2 points, that is, 46, although he has not yet reached the passing line, but, at the very least, he will not be abused so badly by Francis like in the last game.

Although, in the last game, Cao Jian also successfully completed the task, but Cao Jian knew that this was his opportunistic victory, which was not his own strength, and he could not win the game every time.

This move can be used once, but, many times. Definitely not.

Strengthening hard power is king.

Jordan never deliberately let his opponent go down to win because he was afraid of it.

If it weren't for the urgency of the matter. Cao Jian wouldn't do that either.

To increase strength, to quickly increase strength, then only with the help of the system.

Cao Jian was lucky, after accepting the task last time, he received the task again this time, and the reward for this task was very rich. It's higher than the last time you fought against Rockets, with a full 700,000 experience.

looked at Cao Jian. The saliva is also flowing down.

If you have these 700,000 experience points, doesn't that mean that you can increase your strength to 46 in the next game?

In the end, this is a naked temptation for Cao Jian. Red hearts in the eyes. The saliva flowed, and the clothes on his chest were also wet by his saliva, and this experience value was too tempting for Cao Jian, making him want to stop.

But when he saw clearly what the specific task was, Cao Jian was stupid, his red heart dispersed, and his saliva stopped immediately.

The temptation of quest rewards is great. However, the difficulty of this task. But it's bigger.

Win by more than 7.5 points against Spurs!!

Win Spurs by 7.5 points, moreover, also above.

This can't make Cao Jian not stupid.

Are Spurs strong?

Aren't Spurs strong?

You're stupid and you're not strong.

Even when Cao Jian crossed over, the Spurs were still a strong contender for the championship, as long as they wanted to, the Spurs won the first place in the regular season as simple as eating and drinking.

Moreover, at that time, the Spurs' core roster was still in a state of serious aging. Duncan is almost forty years old, and Tony. Parker's speed has also dropped, and the demon knife is also ineffective, but it is such a Spurs, but they are able to enter the finals in a row, and, with the Miami Heat, who gathered the best three of the 03 golden generation, James, Flash Wade and Dragon King Bosh, fought for seven games, if it wasn't for the three-point shot that decided the direction of history in the sixth game, then who the champion is, or have to say twice.

Although the Spurs failed, in the second year, the Spurs made a comeback, directly overturned the Miami Heat, which had the Big Three, and stood in the finals, won the O'Bland Cup, and won the fifth championship in their team history.

At that time, the Spurs were the Spurs with an aging lineup, and their strength was still like this, let alone now.

The Spurs players are still extremely young, and the core leader of the team, Tim Brown. Duncan, now in his fifth year in the league, only won the regular season MVP last season.

Others, such as Parker and Ginobili, are also very young.

In addition, in the current team, there is also Robinson, a sea general, and a healthy sea general, Robinson.

General of the Sea, one of the four major centers in the history of the Alliance, is an existence whose strength is comparable to that of O'Neill.

Admiral of the Sea and Tim. Duncan is in a team, what is the concept?

Duncan was named MVP in 2002 with an all-round performance of 25.5 points, 12.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 2.48 blocks per game, and was named to the All-Offensive Team five times in five years, the All-Defensive Team selection four times, and set a new NBA double-double record.

Then there's Robinson, the center on the inside, who has a lot of experience.

Actually, it's nothing?

Sometimes, 1+1 is not equal to 2, but may be less than 2.

But these two big guys are not like this, they are under the training of Spurs coach Popovich, and the effect is definitely greater than that of 2.

Duncan and Robinson can fit well together as a team, and that's been proven for a long time.

The two of them cooperate tacitly, and the "Twin Towers Tactic" formulated by Popovich has become the most powerful interior combination in the NBA, not only making the opponent vulnerable on offense, but also "Twin Towers" on defense is fast and timely, first-class in defense, and responsive, so that the opponent can not take any advantage in the positional battle.

With the Spurs of Stone Buddha Duncan and Sea General Robinson, the interior line has won the league.

However, that's not where Spurs are scary.

In addition to the interior, there is no shortage of Spurs personnel in other positions.

Now in the Spurs forward position is Richard. Jefferson.

It doesn't matter who Jefferson is, you just have to know that he dunks well. Of course, the dunk is not the point.

The most important thing is: Jefferson, who has the ability to run and jump, has completed his transformation this season. In the past, because of his powerful dunk, he was mistaken by the media as a dunk who could only dunk. And this season. Jefferson has also undergone a drastic change, and through the hard work of the summer, Jefferson has also improved his criticized mid-range shooting and three-point shooting.

This season, Jefferson averaged 22 points per game, a large part of which came from mid-range shooting and three-point shooting.

Although, Jefferson's changes and the Spurs' tactics. There must be an inseparable relationship, but this is not the result of his own efforts.

That's the staffing on the Spurs' front line. And on the back line.

The Spurs are configured as Jackson and Parker.

Of course, the Jackson mentioned here is not a space dance step. Jackson.

Although not, but. The Jackson mentioned here also has an extremely loud nickname "Martial Saint". Full name: Stephen. Jackson.

Wu Sheng was selected by the Suns in the 43rd place in the second round in 1997, and was only selected in the second round of the lotto, which is surprising that this player has limited talent and can not tap into the talent.

However, there are no absolutes.

There are often a small number of people in this world who do not obey the arrangement of fate, go against the sky, and achieve results.

Among them, Stephen. Jackson is one of them.

From the 37th pick in the second round. Step by step, he grew into the Spurs' current leading scoring guard. It is enough to see how much this player has a good heart.

And after possession of the ball for this, the Spurs are equipped with the French sports car Toney. Parker.

He was drafted to the NBA in 2001 and joined the San Antonio Spurs.

The pace and mid-range shooting are excellent. Although, now a lot of people are slamming Tony. Parker can only shoot and is not very playmaking.

But is this something to be believed?

Popovich is a famous coach of a generation, and it is impossible for him to put such a person in the water to act as the Spurs' main point guard.

In addition to Parker, the Spurs bench lineup is also powerful enough.

And on the bench, there is also the demon knife Ginobili.

Ginobili is known as the Demon Knife, which shows its breakthrough ability.

It's no exaggeration to say that Ginobili's speed is among the best in the league.

Although he did not have Maddy, Wade and others, that was the first step that people could not prevent, but his breakthrough was the top level of the league.

The most important thing for him is to rely on the changeable rhythm and teammates to cover to find a good entry line, and the layup feel is unparalleled in the league, and there are often unbelievable layup performances, which are very enjoyable. There is also a decent level of vision and passing ability in the breakaway, and there is also a decent level of vision and passing ability in Thiem. After Duncan was off the court, he often organized the whole team to attack through sudden points.

Because of such a characteristic of him, he also supported the Spurs bench.

It's no exaggeration to call him the Spurs bench leader.

This is just one of them, and it is extremely important that his ability at critical moments can also be seen.

Big heart, Mr. Key, these words are also frequently used in him.

At the critical moment, he was also left on the field by Popovich, which shows the coach's trust in him.

In addition to playing demon knives, the Spurs also have a large number of substitutes, and they are not vegetarians.

If you want to beat the Spurs, the interior players are experienced, taller, have physical advantages, and strong offensive and defensive capabilities, especially the interior player Duncan has become more and more mature.

With the current strength of the Cavaliers, it is extremely difficult to defeat it, let alone win by at least 8 points, which is simply whimsical and foolish.

If, compare from the lineup.

Big Z vs. Sea General?

General at sea, people can be called one of the four major centers in the history of the alliance, what is the big Z?

Let's not embarrass the Turks.

This can be said to be hitting a stone with an egg.

Boozer vs. Stone Buddha Duncan?

Boozer, a sophomore, didn't even stand on his heels?

Stoneford Duncan, although he only played five seasons, he is a player destined to enter the Hall of Fame.

You compare a second-rate player to a Hall of Fame player.

I don't know if you're sick or if someone else is sick.

It's not appropriate.

Small forward, James vs. Jefferson.

To compare with this, it's pretty much the same.

However, in this comparison, although James is a rare genius in ten years. But Jefferson wasn't a vegetarian either.

Moreover, Jefferson also has an advantage in experience. The physical fitness is not much worse than James, who has just entered the league.

Who wins and who loses on this point, do you have to say two things?

Jackson vs. Eric.

Pray to God that Eric won't be left with only scum.

And Cao Jian's point is still in the immature stage of Parker.

Parker's speed is about the same as Cao Jian's, which is also a big threat to Cao Jian.

The substitute knight is even more miserable, enough to act as the main demon knife, and it is not a matter of minutes to abuse the knights to substitute.

Such a contrast. Cao Jian really knows why this task has such a big reward?

Apparently. Is it impossible to accomplish the task?

In other words, the system knows that it is impossible to complete the task, so it deliberately arranges such a task.

Thinking of this, Cao Jian also felt systematic. What a cheat.

It's too bad.

Apparently. Can't be done, this definitely can't be done.

How does this work?

Although I am very excited about this task, I still need to do everything within my ability.

Cao Jian was not in a hurry to take on this task, but he did not refuse. Anyway, whether the task is rejected or not. can be decided before the start of the game, Cao Jian is not in a hurry, and now, he is also thinking about how to crack the Spurs.

If he thought of a way to crack it, then Cao Jian would definitely not refuse this mission, but if not, then refusal has also become Cao Jian's first choice.

Obviously, for Cao Jian, refusing this person's task is the best choice now.

The lineup is not more than one of them.

In addition, this game is still played at the home of Spurs.

The lineup is not comparable, and it is acceptable.

The man and the spurs have taken possession, and so has the location.

And this game, for the Spurs, is also extremely important.

The Spurs are now in third place in the Western Conference, and they are still half a game away from blowing up the chrysanthemums of the Lakers in front of them.

As long as they win the Cavaliers, then they can finish second in the West and third in the league, what could be more affordable?

Apparently not.

Moreover, according to Popovich's coaching style, against the Cavaliers, Popovich will obviously not miss the game with such a huge difference in strength.

His philosophy in the regular season was to win the games he could win and win as many games as he couldn't.

Obviously, the Cavaliers are also a must-have team for the Spurs.

Even so, Cao Jian still chose to think about it first, and did not give up.

Mission temptation is one of them.

However, the most important point is that Cao Jian does not want to lose.

I don't want to do it.

Especially in the Cavaliers, it was not easy to get to this point, thirteen consecutive wins, thirteen consecutive wins, this may be in many giant teams, such a record, is nothing, but, in the Cavaliers, this is a brilliant record.

Who wants to be defeated when they are in the limelight, I don't know how others are, anyway, Cao Jian doesn't want to, he doesn't want to.

Although, I don't want to, I don't want to, but, many times, this person is extremely helpless.

God just told you to do something that you can't do anything about.

……

The Cavaliers vs. Spurs battle, the game hasn't started yet.

However, because these two games are extremely important for both sides.

For the Spurs, it's about the second-place spot in the West.

And for the Cavaliers, it's about whether the Cavaliers can extend their winning streak to Game 14.

Therefore, it also led to this game, which attracted the attention of countless people.

The game has not started yet, but about this game, it has also been hyped by the outside media.

Various media outlets have also launched predictions to render this game.

The predicted results are also very consistent, and the media are not optimistic about the Knights, saying that the end of the Knights' winning streak has arrived.

Say what?

The Cavaliers twin stars are difficult to stop the Spurs twin towers.

What to say that the Cavaliers lineup does not occupy any advantage.

What knights no one can restrain the stone Buddha Duncan.

What to say that the knight does not have any advantages.

Knight this side Paul. Silas was also shot while lying down.

What to say about Popovich is the head of the historical level, Paul. Silas is a coach who only deserves to be fired by management. If you send it up, you will only be abused.

Statements like that.

These media outlets are also extremely poisonous, and they will also take advantage of all kinds of news. Go spray the knights, spray them for nothing.

Of course, these remarks also caused dissatisfaction among the players of the Cavaliers.

None of the knights who have come to San Antonio are cool.

However, the gap between the Cavaliers and the Spurs is not happy. It's always there.

These problems can be solved not because the Cavaliers players are dissatisfied.

These questions. It simply can't be solved.

For example, Paul. Silas, coaching is a matter of talent and hard work, Paul. Silas can't say that he doesn't try. But. After working hard to a certain extent, then in the end, all that is left is talent.

Talent is innate, and this acquired cannot be made up.

Although others say it, this is also an indisputable fact.

Paul. Silas couldn't change that.

So, in the morning team training camp against the Spurs, Paul. Silas didn't know where to go to be sad or where to cry.

Only let the assistant coach. Train with you.

I didn't see anyone.

Because, Paul. Silas didn't show up. In the training hall, the players are not in the mood to train, especially the big Z and Boozer who know that they are going to be blown up tonight.

Of course, there are exceptions.

James is the most special being.

Although the outside world is unanimously not optimistic about the Cavaliers, believing that the probability of the Cavaliers losing has reached 9 percent, James is still taking care of himself and training hard.

James has this kind of domineering spirit that does not admit defeat, even if everyone is not optimistic, he is still indomitable domineering.

The afternoon game has not yet started, the team training camp is over, and during the free activities, Cao Jian, who is extremely depressed, also came to the street to go shopping.

said that he was shopping, but he was just walking aimlessly.

On the street, Cao Jian heard more talk about tonight's game between the Cavaliers and the Spurs.

In San Antonio, of course, more Spurs fans, as Spurs fans, and, with such a strong squad, of course, thought that Spurs could win.

"Man, Tim is going to go berserk tonight. I think he can get a triple-double tonight. ”

"That's a must. Knight so dish. ”

"The Cavaliers have no one except James and the Chinese now, and of course winning them."

"This way we can blow up the big shark's chrysanthemum, and it's exciting to think about it now."

"That's not. It's been the best year and I think we can get to the top. ”

"Kobe Bryant was plagued by a rape case, and there were cracks in the relationship between the sharks and him, and the Lakers wanted to win four championships in a row, but there was no way. Isn't there a timberwolves up ahead? ”

"Do you think one Kevin can stop Tim and Robinson? The Spurs twin towers are unstoppable. ”

"No, no, no!!" Just when this wave of people was discussing the game, a little fan wearing the white No. 12 jersey of the knights appeared angrily, stuck his waist, and shook his index finger vigorously to these old guys, learning from Uncle Mu's appearance, and said to everyone:

"No, the Cavaliers will win. Cao, the three-point shot is accurate, he will definitely become a hero. ”

Cao Jian, who was standing here, was also stupid, he never thought that there would be his own fans in San Antonio, which also made him feel extremely surprised, looking at this little kid fixedly, what else would he say?

"Heroes." Shabu Shabu "Tim definitely can't stop it. ”

Everyone was also amused by the little child's actions.

Of course, these people will not be more serious with the little kid, in their opinion, this little kid doesn't understand anything at all?

However, this little kid really has a kid, "Why don't you believe it?" Let me tell you, my idol, Cao, is what he does best is to make the impossible possible. ”

"He's the best."

"In the past, you always said, knights can't do it, how can knights be, but if you look at knights, knights have been improving."

"In the past, you always thought, Cao, no, Cao, what is it, what is it? However, in the end, Cao did not become an excellent player. ”

"I believe in Cao, this man like the wind. He said that God would always favor men who like to struggle until the wee hours of the morning. I believe that Cao can do it this time. ”

Hearing this, Cao Jian, who was listening to the side, also felt funny, and thought: Did I say it?

Hearing this little kid say this, the others were also happy.

One of them asked, "Then what do you think the Cavaliers rely on to defeat the Spurs?" ”

Hearing this, the little kid was also stunned, obviously, this little kid is a blind admirer of Cao Jian, for these, without careful study, he can't answer.

Even if you study it carefully, it may not be possible, and now Cao Jian is in such a state.

Hearing this, Cao Jian also wanted to leave.

However, after not walking a few steps, Cao Jian stopped, and the little kid, in the end, still spoke, "Rely on here." ”

As he spoke, the little kid hammered his right chest with his right hand, and said very domineeringly.

"Cao, as you said, as long as you don't admit defeat, no one can let you lose." The words of the little fart are very inspiring, but these are just, and in the eyes of these people, the enthusiasm of youth is no longer there.

"Then how do you think the knights broke the Spur Twin Towers?"

"I think you're talking nonsense, do you have to break the twin towers to win the Spurs?"

There is a lot of nonsense about little, but the last sentence directly woke up Cao Jian, yes! If you lose the Spurs, do you have to break the twin towers?

Wouldn't that mean no one could win against the Spurs?

No, not really.

At this time, Cao Jian's mind also had a flash of inspiration, and the idea also appeared: if you want to defeat the Spurs, then a smooth fast attack is the magic weapon to defeat the enemy.

This task can be taken.
