And in the entire first quarter of the game, Li Yang did not get the opportunity to play, and this is the first time in this season.

Just when Li Yang secretly scolded Popovich in his heart, he heard Popovich's voice: "Yang, play!"

Li Yang was still sent to the court, and at this time Li Yang also knew that he should have been teased by Popovich, and the old man was scared of himself in the first quarter of the game.

Li Yang was thinking at this time that if the head coaches of several more teams said this before the game, he might really be pressed on the bench by Popovich, but he didn't blame himself for playing well.

At the beginning of the second quarter, Li Yang came on the court, and the Spurs were joined by Split, Dio, Belinelli and Mills. This season, Mills has been outstanding, especially with his very consistent outside shooting, which has also made Joseph's chances of playing far worse than in last season's playoffs.

The Hawks, on their side, also had a bench with a starting lineup, keeping Antich, Carroll, and Korver on the court, with this year's rookie Dennis Schneider from Germany at point guard and Elton Brand at power forward.

The Hawks took the lead in attacking, and Korver came to the halftime and ran aggressively, successfully shaking off Belinelli and shooting a three-pointer.

Seeing fellow shooter Korver shoot a three-pointer over his head, Belinelli, who had just won the three-point contest at All-Star Weekend, immediately started running and tried to fight back.

Belinelli did run outside the three-point line to receive a pass from Mills, but Belinelli's shooting touch today was not very good, and he missed a three-point shot in the first quarter, and this time, his shot also bounced out of the basket.

The ball slammed into the basket and bounced high, and the Hawks players were still stuck in position ready to scramble for rebounds, when they suddenly heard the cheers of the Spurs fans in the field.

The next moment, the players of the Eagles found that a figure suddenly came out and jumped high in the air, Li Yang!

"Yang!!"

Spurs fans are staring at Li Yang's figure on the court, after Li Yang won the slam dunk contest, they have been looking forward to seeing Li Yang's performance at home again, and now, it's finally here!

Li Yangju, who jumped in the air, grabbed the ball directly in his hand, pressed down with the momentum, pressed the ball into the basket, and made up the dunk!

"Bang!"

With the sound of this dunk, the scene suddenly resounded with huge cheers, as well as DJ's high-pitched shouts.

Li ...... Yang !!!"

"Cool! Young's dunk is fantastic, it's really the dunk king!" the Spurs fans shouted excitedly.

Li Yang, who completed the deduction, stood on the bottom line and waved his arms towards the fans on the bottom line, which immediately attracted the cheers of the fans at the scene.

"Coax !!!"

Seeing Li Yang's action, Budenholzer's eyes lit up, and he could see from Li Yang's action that with the improvement of his skills and the increase of his fame, some things that Li Yang did not appear originally began to be stimulated.

For example, Li Yang likes to interact with fans, for example, Li Yang likes to be passionate, and Li Yang enjoys the cheers and applause of fans.

Budenholzer doesn't think there's anything wrong with these things, on the contrary, he thinks they're great, because they will make Li Yang look more unique in the Spurs, and it will also make Li Yang have more desire to show himself in his heart.

Having been with the Spurs for a long time, Budenholzer knows too well what the culture is like within the Spurs, and under Popovich's tutelage, the Spurs are the perfect machine, and Popovich doesn't like that someone on the team plays too freely outside of the system, especially in the starting lineup.

If Li Yang wants to show himself more and get more offensive freedom, then Li Yang's most suitable position for the Spurs is the sixth man, which is also the position that Popovich allows for free play, just like Ginobili.

However, Budenholzer doesn't think Li Yang will be content to stay in the sixth man's position.

Li Yang is still young, his talent is better than Ginobili, and he has a higher reputation than Ginobili when he was young, such a person, Budenholzer will not believe that the other party will always be willing to be the sixth man.

"It's hard for POP to keep Young this summer, and for the Hawks, if they can get Young, it will be an opportunity to quickly improve the team, and Young is more suitable for the Hawks than De Marre [Carroll], he has more plasticity. ”

Thinking like this, Budenholzer's eyes began to glow.

While Budenholzer was thinking like this, the game between the two teams on the court continued, and Schneider on the Hawks' side tried to score directly inside with the help of the pick-and-roll. But Li Yang's defense was very timely, he shot out from the side and back, and a block blocked Schneider's layup, which once again attracted thunderous applause from the audience.

The ball fell into the hands of the Spurs players, but the Hawks' retreat was very fast, and the Spurs were not able to get the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

After getting the ball, Li Yang made a shaky feint outside the three-point line, and then began to break through and rush to the basket, in the face of Li Yang's breakthrough, Carroll defended very actively, and he tried hard to block Li Yang's breakthrough route to stop Li Yang.

However, after Li Yang's feint of turning around and speeding up, Carol was still left behind.

"Defense!"

Finding that he was thrown away, Carroll was busy shouting, and Antich, the inside line of the Eagles, did rush forward to make up for the defense as soon as possible, but Li Yang did not give the other party a chance to make up for the defense.

Halfway through the breakthrough, just when Antici was about to step forward to attack, Li Yang, who stuck Carol behind him, suddenly stopped and jumped.

Carol didn't expect Li Yang to make an emergency stop in this position at this time, although he had braked in time, he still couldn't dodge and hit Li Yang.

"Tick!" the referee's whistle sounded as soon as possible.

In the air, Li Yang leaned forward at this time to stabilize his body a little and threw the ball at close range.

"Ball in, two plus one!"

"Young is so much better than last season, he plays smarter and more calmly. Listening to the cheers of the audience, Budenholzer's eyes brightened again, "This summer, we must find a way to bring Young to Atlanta, he will be the most suitable Eagle King for the Eagles." (To be continued.) )
